[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SilverZero:
If you really don't care, just update to the newest 2.2 OTA, that will get you to stock with a new HBOOT and you will lose root. There are ways to "unroot" to a 2.1 ROM using RUUs, but they can get complicated. If you have no reason to root in the future, update to 2.2.

Correct me if I'm wrong, everybody. :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kindakrazy:
i have tried updating to 2.2 but it wont update just gets stuck at the recovery with a yellow exclamation point/caution sign
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ifly4vamerica:
Ok go to the wiki, use the "simplest root method without a gui" that will get you a recovery and setup that WILL allow you to flash the stock rooted 2.2, so you wull be at stock with full 2.2 froyo. Then forget about all the fancy stuff and only flash through amon ra recovery and presto no more problems. leave all the ruu's out of it, once you have root with nand unlocked you can flash pretty much whatever you want. If you flash an unrooted rom of course you will lose root. good luck

As far as i know you can't get the OTA 2.2 over a rooted 2.1...which brings us full circle back to the original question. What I would do if it were me:

#1: Run Simple root 1.47 to get a fresh root

#2: The re-run this unroot method:

[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kkeller416:
so i was trying superfly 1.2 froyo rom and decided i wanted to go back to slidemeroot5r1, i used rom manager to resoter nandroid backup but when the phone rebooted all my apps were dead links on the phone i couldnt use market app or google maps or anything useful so i tried to do a fresh install of the rom and it fails while installing at "line 302 system" i think thats what it says

it did reboot to some rom but im not sure what it is and i still dont have market to download rom manager

im sure this is a bit confusing as i may have left out an important details but

any help would be appreciated

thanks

From clockwork recovery did you do a nandroid or did you reflash using "install zip from sdcard"
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sleepykit:
My guess, and this is totally out in left field, is that the superfly rom either doesn't use a2sd or something. If you previously used a ROM that did, then some versions of clockwork didn't correctly grab the SD-EXT partition (mine still errors) so I wonder if the actual location where the apps lived is no longer around...

Or I could be totally crazy...
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Armyjon88:
Well I learned from flashing various roms that the easiest was to avoid issues is to wipe using the partitions menu in clockwork recovery

First...

Insure all partitions are mounted.

Second...

Format each partition, to exclude sdcard

However all of these will be formated if you select "factory wipe" and flash a new rom.

Factory wipe clears data and cache when you install a rom most should also format system, boot and sd-ext prior to installing anything.

Edit: insure your using the latest recovery from clockwork

Ver. 2.5.0.1
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kkeller416:
hello

so the first time going from froyo to slidemeroot5r1 i used rom manager to initate my nandroid back up

that ruined all apps that i had on my phone,(including market and others) i then tried to install through clockwork and sd card zip which had the same results

i was able to reinstall a fresh install of slidemeroot5r1

after i had a fresh install i tried to reinstall a nandroid backup and had the same result as before

which really confuses me because i had used my nandroid backups before to restore my phone so i dunno what got corrupted

maybe because i updated to the new radio???

anyways im back to where i want to be for now

thanks

It shouldn't do that.

Try the RC3 (about to release it): http://www.darktremor.info/files/a2sd/dtapps2sd-2.7.5-rc3-signed.zip

If that doesn't work, let me know and we go from there. There's a recovery log file that is created...I just have to remember where it is at (was looking at it just this morning).

please note i have formatted my sd and have done a ext2->ext3 already.

[Click Android Development] tkirton:
It doesn't work with Stock roms because there's no command in init.rc to launch Apps2SD (which is part of the boot.img). Now, you can modify the boot.img (or get an already modified boot.img) to add support. It will retain the stock rom feel but has a modified boot image.
[Click Android Development] tkirton:
That is because the EXT partition isn't mounted, so Linux (the OS behind Android) doesn't see an EXT partition on the SD card (needs a mount command to be executed, which Apps2SD does, but the rom doesn't launch the program).
[Click Android Development] vantoman:
i have the same problem and in order to run A2SD i have to mount the EXT3 Partition manually ; anyone knows how to auto mount the ext3 partition at system startup ?!!
[Click Android Development] pardol:
ok. i have been able to install a2sd correctly and have it running since a ferw weeks now. The only flipside is i need a PC to be able to reboot the phone since the Ext3 partition does not start.

Is there a command i can put in the

init.rc

file to autorun a2sd in place of doing a

adb shell a2sd

every time i reboot the phone ?
[Click Android Development] ut0zw2:
Hi, how about if after start up , manually mount the ext3 partition and manually run apps2sd app ? As I rarely reboot the system so I think this can be an alternative solution. but could someone let me know the command ? thx
[Click Android Development] tkirton:
If you installed Darktremor Apps2SD, add the following in the init.rc, before the "start class_default" command:

exec /system/bin/sysinit

BUT you will have to break the init.rc from the boot.img to make the change permanent.

Or, find a rom that has the modifications already in the boot.img and push the boot.img into the phone.

I installed JWMDIcon Changer program. It does indeed allow you to change the order of the icons in the Start page and within any folders. It does a lot of other things, but this is the only thing I wanted it for.

I noticed that Google is now selling Nexus Ones through the developer channel to registered developers, but this appears to be a bootloader-locked retail device, not any type of engineering device. They also sell what appears to be an ION, also bootloader-locked.

So while this is fine for testing your apps, there appears to be no legitimate/officially sanctioned way for an individual developer to get a phone on which he/she can test alternate builds of Android itself.

Of course, anyone familiar with this forum knows how easy it is to root these devices, and of course with the Nexus One in particular you can unlock the bootloader yourself, but it seems strange that Google makes no provisions for allowing developers to work on Android itself on real hardware. They make Android open source but then provide no official way to try your builds on an actual device.

I guess "real" engineering bootloader-unlocked devices are only made available to "real" partners (cell phone providers, hardware manufacturers, etc.).

While I'm still currently focused on my lowly Hero, you EVO owners (many former Hero owners) have been pretty relentless in contacting me for requesting ports of various mods I've done for the Hero over to the EVO :D.

Since I don't have an EVO (yet), to date, I've resisted, as the stuff I'm doing for my own phone pretty much takes up most of my free time. Feeling sorry for you poor EVO owners, I've finally given in and decided to port over some of the taskbar mods I've done for the Hero, since this has been highly requested :).

This mod "should" work on any deodexed ROM based on the Sprint/HTC Froyo 2.2 final build for the EVO. It modifies your services.jar file, so be patient on initial reboot, as your Dalvik cache will get rebuilt, and as always, nandroid before flashing.

You have SteelH to thank for the "encouragement", testing, and screen caps. With that, I will now return to my regularly subscribed forum...

EDIT: See this post for reverting to stock services.jar file.

[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] saltorio:
Just wondering if anyone else uses Barnacle WiFi Tether and can tell me how much of a battery drain it is for them?

I've noticed that on my X10 it will eat through my battery (while charging on the X10 stock charger) at varying rates. Sometimes I can get through a workday with it running and come out only down 25% charge, while other days (like today), I'm sitting at 45% charge after only 4 hours.

Not sure what differs from day to day, other than my 3G signal strength (which isn't good at my desk, hovering between 98 and 105dbm). Could that be it?

I've checked and the X10 is most certainly being fed a charge (charging LED is on, and the charging icon is on the notification bar).

I know that something like Barnacle will be a battery hog as it's running both 3G and WiFi antennas at the same time, but losing >50% charge in a few hours while plugged in seems pretty crazy.

One thing I can definitely tell you not to remove is anything and I mean ANYTHING related to Google Talk. I can tell you from experience how badly removing Talk can f'up your phone. The Market, as well other major apps and functions somehow all seem to be tied in with it for what reason I do not know (wtf Google?!).

You will lose Market if you remove Talk!

That said, before you remove anything, I suggest you back it up. TB will even allow you to "Freeze" an app before removing it to see what effect the removal will have.
