I haven't had one sense reboot on this rom. I could be wrong, but I didn't think you were supposed to use the apps2sd from the market in conjunction with the a2sd that the rom comes set up with already (cyanogen's scripts). Perhaps that's what's causing the sense restarts? I don't think that's typical to be experiencing, as I haven't had anything like that with any of the nightlies. I haven't even had a single force close or anything of the such.

Just to throw in my 2 cents. No installatin issues until the 6/6 Rom. I will admit I was using a brand new 16gb card though. I used Amon 2.3 to make a 0mb swap, a 1024mb ext 2 partition which I then used the ext 2 to ext 3 option in Amon. So, with everything set and ready to go, with nothing on the card except the synergy zip file, I installed the rom and it completed. When I reboot the phone it hung at the splash screen for atleast 45min, thats when I gave up. I then, just wiped everything again, reinstalled the zip and it booted right up.

Like I said, that was the first issue ever with any nightly!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] efipaul:
It's showing 253MB left right now.

I'll wipe the caches today and try again. Maybe it's just an oddball fluke.

I gave synergy a run last night. Everytime I booted into it, about 30 seconds after it booted it would unmount my sd card i couldnt remount it. Couldnt figure out why so i went back to aosp.

I have my original 8gb SDcard with 156 MB free system, 54.5 MB free internal, and 2.69 GB free on SDcard. I am currently running the built in apps to SD (.android_secure). Would I be better off to partition and use a2sd? If so, how do I get my apps in .android_secure to the ext3 partition? Do I have to move them one at a time to phone and then to ext3? How?
[EVO 4G Android Development] marriedman624:
Off topic, but I think it's funny how much activity we have between 2-4 AM EST but now the thread has been sitting dormant for an hour between 7:45 and 8:45.

Just made me chuckle.

Also, loving the ROM, battery life is nice. Yesterday I flashed 3 or 4 things, normal usage, and listened to Pandora for 1.5 hrs and was still at 17% after being unplugged for about 16 hrs. That's pretty sweet, can't wait for a custom kernel to do even better.
[EVO 4G Android Development] crstfr:
i was on the OP and linking to the original threads for this port.... ..and I'm going to assume its because were evo, and there g2/desire.... but.....

my question is..... why do we have to go through all these hoops with partition on sd, why is this rom different... sense 3.0? and it seems theirs just flash from zip.... like normal?...
[EVO 4G Android Development] marriedman624:
Technically you don't have to do a2sd in order to run this on the EVO, just nice to free up some internal memory if you do.

Also, those phone may have more internal memory so they don't have to worry about it. Just guessing.

Except for a few people with issues, the partitioning (via RA recovery) is easy and a2sd is easy to set up.
[EVO 4G Android Development] gnmitchell:
IMO since the 6/6 nightly I would def say you don't need to partition your SD card. The developers have done an amazing job of optimizing the internal phone storage. I installed both with a partitioned and non partitioned 8gb card and on my phone there was no difference in phone storage (222MB available space both ways) after installing all of my apps (33 to be exact).
[EVO 4G Android Development] mutant13:
yep, I have 305mb on internal, that is more than 06/6
[EVO 4G Android Development] Dan330:
lowetax was kind enough to talk to me on the phone about this, and this is what I should try next:

1. partition with: 0 swap and 0 ext2 .. to see if it works.

it took 5 seconds to do.. no problem

2. usb to my pc.. had it error check the drive.. took 15 secs... no problem.

even formatted it... no problem.

got the full 14.9GB

3. go back to recovery.. partition it to 0swap, 1024mb ext2; back to waiting..

after 20 mins.. i battery pulled.

i tried to wipe the ext2 and would not even try... it will not allow me wipe it. just says ... skipped blah blah blah..

it is one of 3 things:

1. bad card

2. bad phone.. cant format or change drive space.

3. software setting/ permissions.....it just sounds like there is a setting that is off... like not allowing to partition out the space..?????

anyone have any ideas? :confused::confused:

Help...

Ok guys, I've been having one problem after another with my phone lately. It seems my phone doesn't like all of the flashing I've been doing. As usual she's stubborn, extremely picky and very temperamental. Somewhat like her owner but far worse.:p Ok, I did all complete wipes between all of these processes and this has spanned several days, so here goes:

It all began when (hanging head in shame):

1. I flashed MikG's v1.01 GB Sense ROM,

I flashed it, set everything up, there was no Android market, but all other Google apps were there. I said, forget this, and reflashed a Synergy nightly (don't ask me which one).

2. Reflashed v1.01 again, repeated the process, still no Android market, then rebooted, the Market was there.

3. Did a nand backup of MikG's v1.01 to try v1.02. Flashed v1.02. Wasn't into it, then restored v1.01. Once restored, no Market again???

4. Decided to give Sense 2.1 roms a rest and nand restored one of my old RLS 5 backups I've previously restored successfully. Bootloop!!!

5. Flashed the latest Synergy nighty 06/07, everything looked fine. Went into the Market to download Titanium Backup and upon install, the phone hot restarted. I tried it again, it hot restarted. Tried another app, same situation.

Does anyone know what's going on because I don't. :confused: :(

Uninstall and wipe everything you need to. Instead of using titanium backup to restore your apps, re-download them from the market and go from there. The market problem is exclusive to MikG (I think), I don't know the solution to that, I'm sorry :(.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mercado79:
I can't tell you for sure this will work, but... after struggling a bit myself, I took the microSD out and put it into my pc. Did a full format (to fat32 I guess). Might as well do a disk check while you're at it. Then take the microSD card back out, put it on your phone, reboot into recovery and use either ClockWorkMod's partition tool or if you're using AmonRA's recovery, partition it there. I used CWM. Also, just an FYI... I tried partitioning using Rom Manager and it didn't work.

This was the only way that worked for me. Like i said, YMMV. The trick for me though was to take the card physically out of the phone and putting it in the laptop. It does not work the same if you're simply connecting the phone to your PC and turning on USB mode. The card has to be in the machine during the full format and disk check.

Good luck!
[EVO 4G Android Development] lowetax:
i can jump back and forth between MikG and Synergy with no issue at all.

i don't have a partition and i do a fuller than full wipe when i flash a new version of either of them.

(Calk's Format All - Wipe ALL - flash - let it sit - don't sign in to google - wipe cache & dalvik cache - then sign in and sync - wipe cache & dalvik cache - then they are rock solid - methodical and anal - but it works)

sounds like partition data is cause. RLS 5 could be radio issue.

start each with a full wipe.

[EVO 4G Android Development] slugbug2010:
I think only those with problems are in here seeking some possible solutions. I went straight with the Kings11 kernel since it did so well for me on RLS1, but my friend was using this Rom, RLS2, with the stock kernel, he got the best battery life he's ever had, he tried Kings11, it was worse, so he went back to the basic stock-Myn's-Rom set up.

I didn't want to re-do all my settings so I didn't do a wipe. My battery is fine. I am testing out BS6 as a kernel right now and my battery still seems fine.

As several people have pointed out...I think all this battery talk is more about individual usage, phones, and setups more than the Rom.

Guys... please turn on 4G, let it scan for a bit, then turn it off and see if your phone goes back to sleep. Something 4G related causes a wake lock and the phone will not suspend. Because of this, I lost 25% of the battery in less than two houes before I noticed that the phone doesn't sleep.

im unsure what ksoftirqd/0 is?

i can bet on that this is why some ppl are having horrible battery life with stock kernel and battery tweak, because this whatever thing is running in the background, keeping the phone awake and sucking battery and the CPU.
[EVO 4G Android Development] I Like Soup:
I'm sticking with this one for a while...

OK, this is only my second ROM (coming from Fresh 3.3 w/netarchy 4.1.8 kernel) and I've got it set up pretty much how I like it. I must say, I love this ROM. Donation sent! Your transaction ID for this payment is: 90897996KP349412D.

After reading through many of these posts, I went ahead and ran a Linpack and Quadrant before switching over. On Fresh with setCPU set at 1.15GHZ, I got an MFLOP: 38.263 Time: 2.19 seconds and a Quadrant score of 1493. On Myn's Warm, I got an MFLOP: 35.289 Time: 2.38 seconds and a Quadrant score of 1307. I'm not really one of those guys that goes chasing benchmark scores or anything and I agree with many people's sentiments in this thread,...real world use is key. And I have found this ROM to be extremely smooth and I love the transitions.

As for battery drain, I figured I'd use the standard kernel first before I flashed anything else and I'm very happy with it so far. Methinks it is better than what I had on Fresh, but keep in mind, I was using setCPU And...I've found Myn's ROM to be very smooth and a joy to use! Thank you!
[EVO 4G Android Development] intheb0x:
alot of ppl like my self are having huge battery drain with the stock kernel and battery tweak, i think i have found out why.

Hey Vanessa,

Lack of market issues have been caused by partitioned cards as well as lack of wipe to the SD ext and android secure.

Make sure you've wiped these two chunks. A full regular wipe usually skips these two.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
There are a lot of people complaining about being stuck at the splash screen or bootup screen and I'm sure some of them are, however, it must be noted that the initial bootup for Synergy, at least the pre-betas, can be somewhat long. Are you certain you're being patient enough? As for partitioning or not partitioning, that is a matter of preference. The rom will work either way. I partitioned my 16GB SD card with a 2 GB sd-ext (ext3) partition and Synergy is working well for me and my setup. Others have 1 gig sizes, 512 MB size, etcetera. Again, it is a matter of preference. If you're new to flashing and are apprehensive, please wait for the final build. Take some time to read as much of this thread as you can and mentally absorb as much as you can. You will learn a lot. Believe me. To those who are still new, but less apprehensive, start with your SD card as-is and then go from there. Finally and I can't stress this enough, if you're coming from another rom, PLEASE do a complete wipe/data reset and don't be dependent on the ROM Manager app. Go into the recovery itself and learn the menus. Doing so just may save your device from being bricked in the future....;)...Okay, I feel better now!..:D

[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
Dan, you should be able to completely format your card from with recovery, especially with amon-RA v2.3.

1. If you select "Wipe SD card" from the wipe menu, that will erase the contents of the card.

2. If you select "Partition SD card", you will be prompted for a swap size, ext2 partition size and FAT size. If you place a zero for the first two, your card will be partitioned as entirely FAT. No partitions. If you have a 16GB card, almost all of it will be available for you to use.

3. If you decide to add an sd-ext, then select "Partition SD card", then set an amount for your SWAP, ext2 and then the rest will be FAT. Afterwards, select "Upgrade ext2 to ext3". That's it.

4. Go to the wipe menu and wipe EVERYTHING in it EXCEPT the SD card.

5. Transfer the rom over to the card via the MS-USB option.

6. Flash the rom. Be patient during initial bootup because it takes a while to boot to your homescreens.
