Indeed. the installation will fail if one of the steps had been done wrongly. That is why I've created a form which can provide enough information about the installation to help us help you. Without filling the form or providing complete information, how can you expect to get a helpful response.

I never said starburst supports arabic writing. It's only the locale that is supported. But I do have released the latest arabic rom with data 2sd. It's called Al-Maisan.

I have one question. Today i bought new micro sd card ( microsd ultra sandisk) and how do i switch it without loosing data? Do i just do nandroid backup and make new partiton on new card and then just restore it?

Thanks

@droidzone have you seen this bravo gingerbread test build leak

http://911sniper.blog.163.com/blog/static/14290088120113150379594/
[Desire Android Development] tebs:
I have used this method several times without any problems.

Has anyone seen problems with 100% CPU usage when the phone isnt being pushed much?? It seems to happen randomly, about once a day. When i check to see whats loading the cpu I find android system running at 80%+. I have tried task killers to kill nearly everything but the CPU still runs at 100% loading with the current consumption at around 400mA and the phone starts heating up and runs very slow. The only way to stop it is to switch the phone off and on again. This started happening 10 days after my 1.3.35 install. Any ideas?

DATA2SD disappears after 2nd boot

Hi droidzone,

I'm testing out your latest Classic version, everything is fine until I do the second boot.

Steps I do:

1 Install your ROM

2 Go through the recommended steps in your guide with only setting language/time.

3 Restart the phone so that DATA2SD can be installed

4 Checking SD & Phone storage 1.75GB Available

5 Wait around 15-20 mins restart the phone and when it's up again all the available space is down to 55.89MB.

Any idea why this happens?
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Try running the getlogs tool at the second and third boot so that we can compare them to understand the issue. 15 min wait isn't needed. flash rom, reboot twice in succession. the classic depends on the presence of two partitions created in gparted. If there are more than two, it might fail, like when you have a swap partition..

The solution in most cases is to remove partitions, and recreate then once again. I don't know why that works if partitions were initially created correctly, but it maybe because one may have wiped after creating partitions in gparted. Recovery has issues mounting ext4. So try not wiping after creating the partitions. Wipe should be fine before.

Once data2sd is created successfully once, you can wipe any time.

Another solution is to flash the data2sd installer on top of the classic edition after the storage seems to revert. It defeats the purpose of classic, but usually works. :)

Thanks for great rom. Do you plan OTA update for StarBurst Lite based on new Bravo_Gingerbread_hTC_Asia_WWE_3.06.707.0 stock rom?

BTW there is a bad link for StarBurst Lite 1.3.3.3 on Rom Manager. I downloaded version with third party apps (classic version) instead of lite version.
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
I don't currently give support for classic. It's a beta and is error prone. If I had enough time, I'd be interested in debugging these issues. But at this point of time, please use a stable version. It's highly likely that classic won't work well on s-on phones too.

I'm not sure that theres an advantage of releasing starburst with gb test build. There would be a lot of disadvantages like loss of existing mods. Plus the interface has minimal visible changes.

When the release version hits our shores, I'd probably release one. I might even release a couple of betas based on the test build if I get time during Easter. But I'm thinking of maintaining the stable froyo build alongside the gb builds.

Hi Droidzone,

I tried the standard version and flashed the zip afterwards and all is solved. I still have no idea why the classic version didnt work.
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Tested it out. But unfortunately badnewz seems to have not added init.d script support. So data2sd can't be added until I make a build myself.

Swyped with my Starburst based Desire. Please ignore any typos or grammos.
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Glad to know that!

Data2sd script initialization procedures require strict root rights, which are best provided when run in recovery. When run at boot time, these seem to be pseudo rights, esp when s on. Were you s-off by any chance? I released the beta classic a week before leaving home for my hostel, and never got time to test them further. Now I'm on a self imposed exile from my pc and can do very minimal testing. :)

[Desire Android Development] c0urier:
Hi again,

Yeah I'm running with s-off. When you are back home you could see if you have the same issue, but I'm pretty sure that if you do the data2sd flash afterwards the bug will be fixed.

Yet again thumbs up, great work =).
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Nope. I have a copy of the zip, which seems to work fine on my phone.

I have a lot of checkpoints in the classic edition, and everything is logged exhaustively. the logs can be retrieved with the getlogs tool and should indicate where things have gone wrong for you. But it seems a lot of trouble to go into, since we have a working stable version. :)

I did read that. Allow me to rephrase:

- how big should the partitions be? What's min or max or recommended size?

Hello everyone, I'm using latest LITE flavour... What kernel would fit better for me?

Sibere has Camera Overclock (don't know exactly what is this...) while Leedroid one can go up to 1190 mhz (Sibere stuck on 1113... Any chance to put this up to 1190 too please?).

I use really much the Camera/Camcoder app, and sometimes play games. I'm trying them all (including latest snq one, even if I can't find its spec) but really don't know what could be the best. Any suggestion, please? I'm really confused...

Thanks.

Kudos to developers for the great work on rom and kernels!
[Desire Android Development] OpusX11:
I got a bunch of fc s and then my card went completely blank. I rebooted into stock and had no sd card. It was quite weird. I formatted again using gparted this time, 1.2 gb partition instead of 2 gb. No problems in well over a month.

Ginger Sense

Did you see the new Ginger Sense ROMS starting popping up in XDA?

Are you also planning such one?
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Use gparted for alignment, and the data2sd scripts with journal. Your data should be safe. The three cards I've used are samsung 4 gb stock card, kingston 2 gb and3cpro 16 gb. I've never had any trouble with the cards. It can't be a mere coincidence that the majority of people who had issues had not done partitioning the recommended way.

[Desire Android Development] kl_arnet:
C'm on DroidZOne :D

I know how to read and how to troubleshoot. I've tried both ways of formatting - Gparted and Ra desire. Both are fine for me. I'm currently on my old card (4GB class 2 SamsunG) + SB 1.3.3.5 and X3 + !!PCB + Kitchen mods!! no F/Cs, no errors at all. Runs OK. Slower in many ways, not enough space on SD, but the way how it should work. Flawless.

I've bought cheap A-DATA card and probably that was my mistake. Weirdest thing is, on fat32 partitions all tests go fine and with no errors.

Today I'm testing LeeDroid's version of leaked GB Rom. I wish new kernel would support ext4 partitions, because I'd put your flashable data2sd on it (from Seire's thread).
[Desire Android Development] sibere:
You can call me Sibere ;)
[Desire Android Development] pepsican:
Yes, please.

Since SNQ- released a fix to the slow charging, I have been very happy with the Kernel. May I suggest you also update the Lite version with a new kernel? The one currently in it (version 15) still contains a number of items that have been fixed/improved later on.
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
You may, and I may too. :)

Changing kernels can be done in a jiffy though. I am happy that the rom is usable stably forthe vast majority of users. I hope gb doesn't change that. I was thinking of releasing it under a separate title and thread. Any thoughts? The main issue is that if I release the rom in this thread and the main site, some newbies might go and flash the old mods.. The downside of the alternate approach is that I might have to spend a lot of time handling support on the data2sd issues, most of which you guys are adept at handling. I don't have time at all nowadays, as I have a lot to study..maybe I should just step up the main version.

If there are more people with ability to host mirrors, do tell me soon, as I'd like to complete everything over the next couple of days

Klarnet, I wasn't suggesting that you couldn't! It's what we in the medical profession, call evidence based approach. I did see more card issues for users who partitioned in an alternate way. I know that for some of you, card trouble persisted even after using the recommended way.

However it does seem weird that some brands as such are creating these kinds of issues. It's perplexing that some cards generate fcs on data2sd. Frankly, it's inexplicable!

A data2sd rom just accesses data from it's ext partition. Why should a card which works on a2sd fail to work on data2sd?

One test I'd suggest is to make an ext2 partition and mod the script in an appropriate fashion and try it. And another test with ext 4 without journal. Unfortunately, (or fortunately...touch wood!), my cards have no issues whatsoever, and so I cant troubleshoot these. it's hard to believe that these are manufacturing defects.

[Desire Android Development] kl_arnet:
I couldn't believe in manufacturers error so that's why finding out took me so long. Had to exclude other possibilities. Old Samsung card works with everything I flashed so far.

I hope getting StarBurst based on GB won't be troublesome.

About the program that is to be included as file manager in the rom... I'm now in favor of file expert, as it seems to offer almost all functions as root explorer, including the ability to view and modify /data.. Es file explorer doesn't seem to allow that. I know it's not a big deal since anyone can download any app from the market in seconds, still I prefer that the rom is useful straight out of the box. Also on the anvil are Classic like automatic data2sd scripts with optional add on scripts for those for whom it fails. Script manager and logging will also be standard.I also plan to upgrade all scripts to enhanced data2sd versions

Quick question: I always did clean installs rather than the Reflash ROM+Data2SD Reinstaller method when I upgraded from older Starburst versions.

It's the same few messages, not any other messages I've also deleted. What might be causing this?
