Hi Kurt,

I was specifically talking about crys18's problem.

You are correct that if they already have a 3.14 (based) ROM, then they need to use SSPL to use a custom ROM.

I flashed the new clockwork mod recovery, and now I can't boot into recovery. At all. Not even power down and volume works. I've tried to restore a backup rom using rom manager, but it just goes to the bootloader menu. So confused... What do I do?

Copy the PC36IMG.zip file on your sd card and go into bootloader. Bootloader will automatically scan the file for you and when asked to flash, flash it.

If that works it will atleast get you into a stock ROM and you can go on from there.

Let me know if that works
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nickcash:
Damn. Ok. Guess I'll try that when I get home from work :/ Thank you, I'll keep you posted.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kpost:
Don't do that yet check my posts I had this problem a day ago.

Uninstall Rom manager then reinstall from market, flash clockwork, hit "boot into recovery", if works reboot and flash amon ra if wanted.

This solved my issue 100%

If not they gave me a link for help. Try that first before redoing everything.

Additional Notes (provided by Firerat)​

Removal

There are two ways to remove customMTD ( to return to stock layout ):

Flash an unmodified recovery.img (NOTE: You must format system, cache and data)

Edit the mtdpartmap.txt to have a system size of 0 -- e.g. echo "mtd 0" > /sdcard/mtdpartmap.txt -- and flash the recovery patcher (NOTE: You must format system, cache and data)

Resizing

If you wish to resize, change the mtdpartmap.txt and flash recovery patcher (NOTE: You must format system, cache and data)

Recovery Upgrade

The easiest way to upgrade recovery is to flash manually in recovery via an ADB SHELL while booted into recovery:

mount /sdcard
flash_image recovery /sdcard/RECOVERY_VERSION#.img

NOTE: You do not need to format system, cache and data in this case as you are not resizing.

Again, thanks go out to Firerat for these additional notes.

@HebrewToYou

very good post

I think it's the clearest I have seen to date

just couple of points which I think would prove useful

Removal

there are two ways to remove customMTD ( to return to stock layout )

the first is to simply flash an unmodified recovery.img

Note You *must* format system, cache and data with clockwork or use

fastboot erase system -w

the second is to edit the mtdpartmap.txt to have a system size of 0

e.g.

echo "mtd 0" > /sdcard/mtdpartmap.txt

flash the recovery patcher

again you must format system, cache and data

Resizing

if you wish to resize

change the mtdpartmap.txt

flash recovery patcher

format system, cache and data

Recovery Upgrade

the easiest way to upgrade recovery is to flash manually

in recovery ( adb shell )

mount /sdcard

flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery<version>.img

via running recovery ui

flash recovery patcher

Note, you don't need to format system, cache and data, as you are not resizing

[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Ace42:
On Cm based roms you should be able to shrink system to atleast 100, mines is currently 100MB, but actual usage is 89MB(I removed some stuff)
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HebrewToYou:
You're free to make system whatever size you like -- my recommendations are just that: recommendations. The size I suggested will likely be large enough to accommodate CM7 when it is released -- I cannot say the same about 100 MB...
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kelsec:
Thank you for this clear, concise, well formatted tutorial. Easy to read and follow :) extra /data/ memory made my day.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] lilshortwun:
nice tutorial. too bad im using cr-mod and current system usage is at 204. does this ever change or does it only change with different roms because I want to shrink it to about 210 but i dont want any hidden surprises
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Ace42:
Sense roms always have large system sizes, vanilla ones are normally under 100~. You can always delete some apps from sys that you dont want to shrink it even more, but there should be no hidden traps if you make it 210. I am so happy that we finally have mtd cause i dont use ext anymore and i dont like apps2sd either. On Cm I have 372 in total for data, which is more than enough for me.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] chiensibut:
does it make the phone faster or just more space to install the app?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HebrewToYou:
It doesn't make the phone faster... It gives you fine control over how your phone's internal memory is allocated. If you're running a non-stock rom, there's no reason to have such a huge /system partition. This will allow you to remedy that.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] guitarist5122:
thank you for this. didnt even know we had all the extra space on our phones

only thing is i didnt understand what was said about the cache. i noticed my phone was using >60MB so i gave it 80. wish i could have gotten it down to 1.5 like you did
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HebrewToYou:
Cache is not permanently stored data -- it's just a temporary repository. CM6-based roms will bind-mount /cache to /data if the size is too small, which it will be if you set it to 1.5 MB. That way you can repurpose the 80 MB of /cache and put it directly towards /data -- then /data becomes a shared space /data and /cache which is much better (IMHO).
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] guitarist5122:
ahhhhh, now i get it. thx for breaking it down
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] pettigrew95:
Does this make the phone think that space on an SD card is in /data? So if lets say I have a 4GB partition on my sd card I can make the phone think that partition is /data?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chaoticallysweet:
you could just re-root phone using unrevoked 3.21 also change recovery at the time of root to RA. recovery. Unrevoked has nand unlocked

Follow below steps, but also download last anon_ra recovery( put on desktop or a location you will remember). So when you get to the reflash step, go to file select customer recovery and chose anon_ra rather than clockworks.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neronian:
Searched, but couldn't find an answer to this. I rooted and installed ROM Manager so I can do a nandroid backup before installing a custom ROM. However, when I press back up in ROM Manager, it restarts and hangs/freezes on the HTC MyTouch 4g splash screen.

What am I doing wrong? :D
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tenbeau:
Have you flashed CWM recovery after installing Rom Manager. You must flash the recovery before you can backup/restore or install roms. I almost did that myself but luckily i read the thread concerning it again and flashed REcovery before trying to back up rom.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neronian:
Yeah, I did that first and the problem remains. I just uninstalled and reinstalled ROM Manager and am about to try "backup current rom" again (unless I should reboot into recovery and back up from clockwork recovery?).
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neronian:
FWIW; Current recovery is ClockworkMod 2.5.1.2
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neronian:
anyone? :p
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JonnyFoxtrot:
Did you ever find a solution to this problem? I just started getting exactly the same. Cant reboot manually into clockwork recovery or from Rom manager :/
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] el_smurfo:
If you have flashed a recovery beyond that supported by ROM manager, you will not be able to perform recovery functions from the app (i.e. backup). CW3 is required for CM7 ROMs, but will not be supported by ROM manager until the CM7 RC drops. You can still manually boot to recovery (I always Vol up when powering then select Recovery) and if you have CM7 nightly installed, it has a "reboot to recovery" option in the reboot menu.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bradanomics:
You need CWM3 to use CM7.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmwils3:
Sometimes it is necessary to flash clockwork recovery more than once before it will actually stick. Also, occasionally it will freeze on the splashscreen after a backup, but a battery pull and turning out the phone should be fine.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hammondnav:
Here's what's going on:

The Clockworkmod Recovery that you can download from the Market only supports up to CyanogenMod 6.x. For CM7, you need to install Clockworkmod Recovery 3.x, but that version isn't available on the Market yet.

What this means is that you need to find the image file for a CWR 3.x on these forums and manually install it through either a terminal emulator or fastboot. The post below explains how to do it:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10862819&postcount=3

If you flash CM7 using CWR 2.x, your phone won't boot. There's just no way around it.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeeJay3800:
Careful with the terminology there. ROM Manager, the app you download from the Market, is a GUI front-end to the CWM recovery image, but you can download and install CWM without using ROM Manager at all. Just because you have ROM Manager installed doesn't mean that CWM recovery is also successfully installed.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hammondnav:
Thanks for pointing that out. I didn't imply that CW ROM Manager and CW Recovery are the same thing though... :)
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeeJay3800:
You said "the Clockworkmod Recovery that you can download from the Market", and that kinda does. :) No biggie though.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JonnyFoxtrot:
Just an update for my problem, it turned out that clockwork recovery had corrupted for whatever reason and couldn't be reinstalled from rom manager. As I wanted to test Cm7 anyways I just ended up flashing clockwork recovery 3 manually through fastboot and its all gravy again :)
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hoamet:
How to flash clockwork recovery from fastboot or fron clockwork recovery 2.51?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neronian:
Thanks, everyone. What happened with mine, I have no idea, but I randomly opened rom manager and was greeted with an update to the recovery. So I downloaded it and voila - I can now boot into recovery and do backups, etc...
[Fascinate General] Neuman.Tim:
So I have a replacement fascinate on the way since my other took a dive and I am completely fed up with trying to get it to work again. Mind you I can get it to work and did but even with it 100% stock, I get massive lag, If i do superclean .9 and a stupidfast stable kernel, lag. add voodoo to the mix, oc, ul or lv or sv or ov, lag. So im chalking it up to a hardware issue or something I am not wanting to deal with at the moment. That being said, if the new fascinate shows up with DL09 (doubt it but humor me) I shouldnt have a problem going down to DJ05 right?
[Fascinate General] bomber889:
Why would you want to go back down if it is on that version
[Fascinate General] Neuman.Tim:
because of the lack of support for DL09 :) DJ05 has a plethora of roms and kernels and mods left and right and DL09 doesnt.

Guys,

Just wondering before I jump to Android on NAND...has any workaround found for QuickGPS ? We need WinMO to download data the GPS satellite tracking data...Android programs like GPS Status are unable to do it (atleast when it was running through SD)...has it been taken care of :confused:

Sure it does...the GPS status didn't do much good atleast that was the case with SD builds...its all well known...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] xmRipper:
QuickGPS just updates a file in your /windows folder. (I've just did a quick search and this file should be "packedEphemeris.ee" in windows folder)

Changes in your /windows folder will NEVER effect your Android build. There isn't anything related to it.

You can ask this to every android developer on xda hd2 section.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Mafioso:

I'm not sure how it works though...but read in this forum only, Android on HD2 can't write data onto GPS chip, it can read from it though..which explain why programs like GPS status don't have much effect...even though they do the same thing...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] xmRipper:
No one can write data onto chip >.<

QuickGPS also don't write any data to chip. It just updates a file in windows folder, which is not related with Android.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Mafioso:
Possibly true....i don't know the real reason, but doing QuickGPS does speed up lock, atleast for me...without it, it takes ages > 2-5min...you should check the results for yourself.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] aboveluna:
uhh did you even read the thread his mentioned and try it yourself? i also update quick gps in windows then gps lock faster in android

i dont know what the mistery behind it :confused: so you say me, him, and ALL other people in that thread just subconsciousy feeling it??? :confused: :confused:
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] lukesan:
I think the same. In windows it was a file that was downloaded locally.

When I had locking issues I had to remove that file, reboot and do quickgps again.

The reason that using quickgps etc seems to work in Android is that you already start the GPS receiver and hereby actually already starting the reception process. So if you use that GPS status progran and it says that it downloaded recent data for your receiver you already started the GPS receiver.

I do agree on the fact that there is something seriously wrong with the GPS driver.

On the HD2 with all the tools/gps proggies you get a lock and then you start seeing the bars which indicate the individual satellite strenght.

On my used to be Touch Pro running Android, and in WinMo (also HD2, HD, etc) you first see the sats and then you get the lock which is the way it should be.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Mafioso:
^^QuickGPS dosen't start the GPS reciever...it only download the data..

I dont start the GPS receiver...normally just do quickgps download and boot back to android and its as good as WiMo
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] lukesan:
I know that but most people keep trying with different proggies (meaning GPS test, chartcross etc) and those definitaly start the receiver before actually using the eventual program they intended to use.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] clyder:
I am using QuickGPS data download to speed lock in Android and for me that definitely works. I used Android for few months before tried that method and my biggest problem then was that I couldn't get a GPS lock under 10-15 minutes. First boot after that I got lock in about 10 sec and that continued. GPS lock was always under a minute. Not even turning the phone off and booting into Android changed that. I kept on clicking "download" in winMo QuickGPS after that and so far I am happy with lock speed. I use GPS almost daily and turning it off after use always.

I dont have any technical knowledge of how the whole GPS system works and cant really claim that it has to do anything with how fast the lock is performed but for me everything looks like it does make a difference.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] lukesan:
I use strictly Android, well with Nand no dual boot, and it locks within 1 minute here which is acceptable.

Just like many people, I am frustrated with unnecessarily bright screen when brightness is set to auto.

I am thinking that by putting a thick black tape on the light sensor, I will be able to make the light sensor little less responsive and thus brightness levels will be tamed down.

Can someone help me in identifying location of the light sensor, I am just hoping that it's not in the camera hole?
