Okay, I try to solve everything on my own by research if possible, but I have to ask for help. I was using your Eris Lightning v3.02 (thank you again very much) but I wanted to try this no-sense version of yours. FYI I already had been using Apps on my SD card with a Ext3 partition size of 1 gig but I moved the Cache back off the SD card and removed the swap file as we discussed before.

I did a Nand of course and did a wipe + wipe Dalvik and then flashed this. I rebooted from the recovery and all I get is a long bootup loop. I see the HTC screen and then the Verizon animation and screen, and it stays right there for maybe five minutes, and then starts the loop again with the HTC screen. I let it loop this at least five times.

I tried a battery pull but booting up again still resulted in the reboot loop.

I tried a second wipe + wipe Dalvik and reflashing and still the same thing over and over again.

On a possibly related note, I was trying to restore a Nand I had from 5/22 and I was getting an identical reboot loop (albeit with the animation I had loaded at the time). Nothing solved it except restoring my most RECENT backup which I had just done prior to restoring the 5/22 backup.

I am now restoring the most recent backup once more to just have a working phone. I don't feel like experimenting much more without some professional advice. P.S. I did double-check the hash of this flash file.

Thanks in advance,

Kevin

Edit: as hoped, at least the restore of the latest Nand worked to get it working for now.

Edit 2: I tried just doing a factory reset (via the menus with the phone running in Eris Lightning v3.02) to see what happens, and now the phone is stuck in a reboot loop again. I'm assuming I will once again be able to get it back via the last Nand restore. Strange.

Have you tried flashing other roms to see if they would boot? Are you wiping the ext partition when you wipe(I know that will uninstall your apps which defeats some of the purpose of apps2sd) but maybe you have an app installed that is interfering with an initial boot since it won't even boot after a data/davlik wipe. Maybe also try loading a rom and removing ur sd card before you reboot and see if something on the card is interfering with boot up.
[Droid Eris Android Development] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Good suggestions. I will report back!
[Droid Eris Android Development] memert:
Love this ROM. Thanks for all your hard work. Is there any way to add Friendstream and a vanilla keyboard. I think its the vanilla one I like.+
[Droid Eris Android Development] rufioxiii:
Ok, a little bit longer with this ROM, and I love it. I have some of the best battery life on this phone that I have seen, and it is SUPER quick.

Like I mentioned in my other post, the only changes I would want are cosmetic, and I don't want to ask the dev to spin me a patch to fix that or anything.. How do I go about doing this myself? I don't need anything in depth here, just a finger in the right direction would be nice, as I can't seem to find anything on it here.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Conap:
Editing the color and icons isn't really that hard just a little time consuming. Basic instructions would be to pull the png out of the rom you want to edit. Edit it with a photo editor of your choice. Then drag and drop the new png back into the still zipped copy of the rom and resign it. There are some auto signing scripts on here you can look for. Most of the png's for the main sections of a rom are in the system/framework/framework-res.apk and system/framework/htcrescources.apk. When you open an apk the png's will be found in the res/drawable or res/drawable-mdpi type folders. The dialer keys are in the htcdialer.apk and the phone.apk. Individual icons are in the corresponding app.apk. If you have trouble finding something specific let me know and I will try to help find it as I've been through almost all 10,000 png's in a rom. I do try to take people suggestions on the look of the rom but obviously everyones opinion of perfect is different. I very much encourage anyone to go in and change that stuff to just how you like it cause thats really the point of rooting your phone to have it just how you want it.
[Droid Eris Android Development] memert:
Nevermind the vanilla keyboard, got it from the Aloysius Snow thread.
[Droid Eris Android Development] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Okay, your suggestions worked. I had to wipe both Ext and repartition the SD card to wipe the Fat32 partition, so maybe the problem was actually somehow on the Fat32 partition? First I just tried flashing and removing the SD card before reboot and it worked, so then I kept trying some more things in the recovery with the card in until it worked again.

Thanks again! I have everything else backed up multiple ways so that I can try to restore things a bit at a time and maybe I'll narrow down what was causing the problem, and maybe even why I was having a few quirks (I'm sure it wasn't the ROM because it didn't do it at first) for the past week (the home page flipping right on it's own a lot).

Thank you, Conap!
[Droid Eris Android Development] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Another question, how do I get back the clock/weather combination as shown in the screenshot on the top row on the extreme right in your first post? Sorry for my ignorance. :D
[Droid Eris Android Development] memert:
Weather/Flip Clock Toggle or Beautiful Widgets

Both apps are in the market and you have to pay for them
[Droid Eris Android Development] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Thanks, but now I'm confused. These were included with the sense version of this ROM, and Evil Eris 2.0 that I used before.
[Droid Eris Android Development] memert:
There is a stock HTC Sense version of this, but ROMs like Lightning Bolt have Sense removed, so in order to have a version of this, you must buy it from the market. Its what I ended up doing because I like the clock/weather widget, but love this ROM.
[Droid Eris Android Development] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Okay, I see. Thank you again!
[Droid Eris Android Development] Conap:
Those widget had to be removed in order for the JIT to work. JIT and sense do not mix well at all.
[Droid Eris Android Development] n2imagination:
Oh. Have to check that out. Cool
[Droid Eris Android Development] Rossco_Pee:
Does anyone know how to delete albums covers for songs on the SD card? Or is there a way to turn me off? I've looked everyone and deleted the "album thumbs" folder but they still show up. I'm positive that this is why I experience lag when scrolling through songs. Plus, all the album covers are incorrect on my device.
[Droid Eris Android Development] n2imagination:
Oh $h1t! That is awesome. Had no idea what that toggle was for. Its unreal this is still free! Thanks for the heads up.
[Droid Eris Android Development] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Did some experimenting with all the different versions of the Baseband (Radio) that I could find. For one, I was getting bad GPS reception with the "latest", v2.42.00.04.12.

So I tried downgrading one by one via Recovery, and I did a *22899 (*228 option 2) which seemed to be necessary in order to make accurate readings using the new radio. I then loaded up iGo GPS and tracked my current location sitting still in my house. v2.42.00.04.12 and some of the others lost the GPS signal for as long as minute or more. I think one NEVER got the GPS signal. A couple of the other versions would lost the GPS signal for about 15 seconds at a time (not horrible, but...) However, v2.41.04.02.03-heroc (actually reports as v2.41.05.02.03 in Settings/About/Baseband, ALWAYS kept my GPS signal current.

So, for those getting funky GPS reception, it may be worth your while to try different radios. Just remember 1) check the hash of each radio version AFTER it's on your SD card. 2) Dial *22899 to update your roaming capabilities after trying each one.

3) I AM "now" (not) responsible for what happens to your phone! ;)

P.S. Thanks for the update about Launcher Pro, looks like some things were added I consider a must in any launcher.

i'm pretty sure it's because our version of amon is not compatible with this version of apps2sd... i think? lol... maybe i'm talking out my crap-cutter.
[Droid Eris Android Development] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Sounds like a good candidate, you're right that the Amon thread specifies that it's not compatible with the new Apps2SD yet.

I'm not worried. I use Titanium Backup and I've even backed up my partitions from my SD card using Paragon before. Quicker than a file backup.
[Droid Eris Android Development] mrmidnight:
Sorry bud, I didn't see the post, been working all day, I'll do that, ummmm, now

also, should this also fix the weather problems? My weather widget wasn't syncing right and the dev told me it was because the google weather app wasn't finding my location right, which was true. But weather channel and gps navi worked fine.
[Droid Eris Android Development] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Oh that's okay! It IS hard work keeping up with this busy thread! I've actually read every message but I started early. :)

I hope that tip helps you; please let us know. Remember also that the version of the radio that works best for you might be different than for me and others.

There is a fastboot wiping method for doing a full and complete wipe that vinylfreak posted earlier in the thread that you should do if you're having trouble with force closing.

I'm 75% sure that flashing this radio simultaneously fixed my GPS and battery drain issues. I will need to do more testing, however things are looking good so far.
[Droid Eris Android Development] morphius2036:
Anyone have the phone randomly vibrate as if you touched a key while in a phone call? That is the only time that it will do this problem. I haven't been keeping up but is there a swype install that works with this? I am getting that the trial version has expired can use it as long as I type as a regular keyboard. I search the market and nothing showed up before and after the Jcase Market fix. I have wiped dalvik twice now.

Swype is in open beta at the moment. Hurry and sign up for it. They'll email you about how to get everything installed for it.

[Droid Eris Android Development] roirraW "edor" ehT:
I think most of us only use Ext3 for our Apps2SD partition. The conversion to Ext4 option is just there for completeness sake, but it's actually recommended against using. I've always used Ext3 for Apps2SD.

That's promising! Good to hear.

Re: [ROM]ErisLightningBolt 2.5 Cyanogen build( OC, JIT, Apps2sd, GPS)6/14/10

For the phone vibrating during a call check your call settings in the main menu make sure you don't have the vibrate every45 seconds checked.

the jcase market fix is not needed with this rom, and may cause problems for you. 2.5 fixed the market and the "non Verizon phone" issues. you should prolly reflash 2.5 to un do the market fix.

swype is not, and has never been in the market. if you look in the themes and app section for the Eris, there is a thread on swype, with a link to find the new beta, or sign up to beta test at swype's website.

Try either turning off jit or lowering you cpu speed and see if wither fixes you problem.

re: Number 4: Yes, cyanogen's ROM's now work such that if your battery is between 90 and 100% and connect your charger, the phone won't begin recharging until the battery is depleted to 89% (at which point your charge light should turn amber for a while) and charge back up to 100% again. This is meant to help prolong the life of the battery.

Make sure everyone has spare parts End Button behavior set to "Sleep". On the nexus one, this would sometimes stop the power button from turning the screen off.

Also someone complained of no internet browsing wifi...check your wireless settings and remove the "if on wifi, use this proxy" bit.

The above are several questions that frequent the CM Nexus One forum too, thought i'd lend a hand :)

Eons and Eons ago, rvpartsguy writes:

I presume you mean Nandroid+ext, yes?

It seems like the trouble is a missing mount point, and it's easy enough to fix up manually.

Apparently, the Amon_RA (v1.6.2) recovery mounts the "system" partition on (where else?) /system ... and then mounts the 2nd partition of the SD card at

/system/sd

So - it mounts the SD card ext partition on top of a directory in the /system mount.

(Note that if you don't have /system mounted in Amon_RA, you will observe a directory /system/sd from the boot initrd - but that gets "covered up" by the mounting of the (mtd) flash partition on /system - so, it appears that Nandroid never uses that directory)

That's easy enough to solve, though - either with CLB running and using adb, or with Amon_RA booted and /system mounted, create a directory at /system/sd

CLB running:

C:\foo> adb shell
# mount -o remount,rw /system
# mkdir /system/sd
# sync
# mount -o remount,ro /system
# exit

Amon_RA running

C:\bar> adb shell
# mount /system
# mkdir /system/sd
# umount /system
# exit

This seems to work in reverse, because upon restore of the ext partition, Amon_RA first restores /system, and then mounts the ext on /system/sd without first undoing the /system mount.

Just make the above change and make a new Nand+ext backup, and delete all the old ones.

[Droid Eris Android Development] rvpartsguy:
wow ..thanks I will try this, but now here's my next question, If I do this and decide to try another ROM will Nandroid+ext still work with them ?

You can open up the the build.prop (located in system) and change the last line of text to read ini:fast vs ini:jit, this can be done with any file explorer with a text editing option.
