i did without wipe from cm611 stable but it wiped all stuff automatically. what a powerful coding cm7 is.
[Desire Android Development] najar360:
kali,

is there any work around that i can move freely application install location?

like function apkmanager.sh in firerat. i believe application will much run faster in data partition such adw launcher ex.

why the nightlies are skipped to build 3? where is build 2?
[Desire Android Development] abc001:
It turns to boot looping when I just install update -3 over -1. What's wrong?
[Desire Android Development] qubz:
+1

Changed amon_RA for clockwork flashed full build 1, booted, rebooted flashed gapps 15 and boot loop

EDIT : ok I see the solution. NVM
[Desire Android Development] volapyk:
Running CM7 nightly for a couple of hours now and its just awsome. The whole feeling of CM7 is just smoother than in the other GB roms I've used so far.

Flashed with AmonRa 2 with no problems. Full wipe, ext4 and flashed both rom and gapps before rebooting.

any news for a fix for the market "my apps" ?
[Desire Android Development] io53:
Apps not showing in market after restoring backup? I had this too and fixed it by removing market and flashing gapps again after I had restored my titaniumbackup :)
[Desire Android Development] nachtschicht:
Yes, Oxygen table is too tight. I experimented a bit with CM and managed to shrink /system to <90 MB, but had to sacrifice a lot so I dumped this idea. Also, /cache from Oxygen table is too small for CM and downloads from market would fail if they are too big (I believe, I read something like this here on XDA).

In the end I created a custom partiton table (system 115MB, cache 30MB, data 292MB) because I didn't want to waste so much space to N1 table (only 197MB data). This thread helped a lot: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=806321

Now I'm really curious what kali will come up with :)

[Desire Android Development] ziggy1001:
Am i right in thinking after setting this up everytime i flash a nightly i have to do this step before rebooting

11 Prior to rebooting, flash bravo-boot-v1.5.3-CustomMTD.zip, this patches ROM kernel to load with same partition sizes.
[Desire Android Development] ziggy1001:
Easiest way to customize to your own taste

http://circle.glx.nl/
[Desire Android Development] vipinlahoti:
If u use the MTD partition table, then for next build u have to full wipe other wise ul fall in endless bootloop or your phone wont starts sometimes, Instead of N1 table u can use Data++

Edit: now i understood about this, before after updating nightly i was not flashing bravo-boot-v1.5.3-CustomMTD.zip,

now its working,

Thankyou;)
[Desire Android Development] ziggy1001:
So you can't just do this

11 Prior to rebooting, flash bravo-boot-v1.5.3-CustomMTD.zip, this patches ROM kernel to load with same partition sizes.

After flashing to avoid a full wipe?

If i use Data++ then ok data is bigger but i have my cut down CM7 101Mb on a 180Mb system partition so still wasting space i would prefer a "best usage" solution for partition sizes rather than this but thanks anyway
[Desire Android Development] remizik:
Any news about the CM7 custom Hboot with Alpharev ? :)
[Desire Android Development] ageva:
Try this:

1. Settings -> Applications -> Manage applications -> All -> Market -> Force Stop / Clear Cache

2. Titanium Backup -> Backup/Restore -> Market -> Wipe data

3. Titanium Backup -> More -> Market Doctor

4. Run "Market"

In my case, it fixed the problem.
[Desire Android Development] nachtschicht:
To be honest, this is a 1st time for me with a custom partition layout. I already played around with it a bit and I THINK that it will work without a full wipe each time. But as you said, you will have to think about flashing the 2nd zip after each new Rom.
[Desire Android Development] ferreinf:
Currently using Bravo Sense	/system180M	/cache40M	/data217M

without issues, haven´t tried N1, >70apps installed without moving all to SD, keeping, launcher, BW, gmail... and still 100MB free... :D

running the last build
[Desire Android Development] ziggy1001:
@nachtschicht

Ok thanks could you let me know how this goes when you flash the next nightly just flashing 1 zip is fine for a nightly but if it involves a lot of extra work every time i'll leave it for the moment ;)

First time i have read that thread with a view to doing it

I understood Step 11 to mean unless this is done for every new kernel (or flash) the patition sizes won't correspond and it'll fail
[Desire Android Development] Nekromantik:
If I flash a N1 table then do I just need to nandroid my current ROM and then restore after changing the table?
[Desire Android Development] ziggy1001:
Follow the steps posted on http://alpharev.nl/

worked fine for me ;)
[Desire Android Development] Nekromantik:
thanks

I just bought a 16gb SD for a2sd as my current card is corrupt lol

maybe I should send it back if I can flash N1 and have enough space.
[Desire Android Development] nachtschicht:
Yes, no problem, I will let you know :)

BTW: CM is sooo smooth, it's just awesome!

The only things I miss is % on battery and custom color on Exchange account.

I like the Androidian theme very much, though I already noticed that certain programs won't work (like Autostarts) until you swith back to standard theme.
[Desire Android Development] ziggy1001:
Damn i'm just to impatient ;)

I opted for 50Mb cache and 110Mb system can't quite workout how 5Mb cache is ok if it was using about 40+Mb most of the time and it uses cache for D/L's but i now have a lot more data space:D

cm7 hboot

be patient, rumours say cm7 hboot support gonna appear in #18 :-)

it'll look smth like 130/10/rest
[Desire Android Development] ziggy1001:
Interesting but TBH if this method is reliable and easy to update on flashing then it seems more flexible than a custom hboot
[Desire Android Development] F0rever:
maybe 130-5-rest
[Desire Android Development] SoftWord:
Very thanks ! :) Now it works :)
[Desire Android Development] MrDevil:
Which recovery are you using? Would like to give this a try as well :D
[Desire Android Development] frocee:
DSP Manager

I used the older version of DSP Manager on CM6.1.1

I dunno if there's any audiophiles here, but the old one sounds a lot nicer, comparable to most $100-$200 headphone amps.

However, the old DSP Manager doesn't work with CM7, and the new one actually sound quite bad.

I figure it has to do with the "libaudioflinger.so" file, but I dunno much programming, so i dunno how to decompile the libaudioflinger.so, or even change/compare the code.

Can any kind soul help me with this?

Thanks!

[EDIT]: the issue lies in DSP Manager, the code have changed. thanks to ALL the kind souls who helped me mentally, i received your brain waves.
[Desire Android Development] nachtschicht:
Indeed! But still I would love to make this permanent. I wonder how the alpharev-guys are creating those flashable IMG-files. Does anybody have more insight on this?
[Desire Android Development] Narfx:
Basically, mount -o bind /data/whatever /cache in an init script. That way the system sees /cache as having the same free space as the data partition. I still don't understand why this is not the default in all roms, it's been working flawlessly for me since the custom MTD partition patch was released months ago (love the 300MB for /data).
[Desire Android Development] donatinho:
#18 out and installed
[Desire Android Development] fridlack:
That's wrong

I am using a custom MTD partitions from cm6 nightlys and i only flash the bravo-boot-v1.5.3-CustomMTD.zip every time i update a nightly without problems...

But if you forget to flash the boot patch after every rom flash you get a nice boot loop :P
[Desire Android Development] nachtschicht:
@fridlack: Ah thanks for the explanation.

After reading Firerat's main thread I learned that flashing the bravo-boot...zip will append parameters to the kernel line with your custom MTD, so this is all the magic there is about. ;) no need to wipe, just flash the zip after the rom.

Downloading cm_bravo_full-18.zip right now, but download speed is sooo slow. Could you guys please stop downloading for 5 minutes? Thanks ;) :D
[Desire Android Development] Narfx:

Clockwork 2.5.0.7

But read the original post here i think a couple of people reported Amon ra working ok

Custom MTD Partitions
[Desire Android Development] ziggy1001:
Not sure but is that possible? doesn't the custom MTD change the Alharev (default) partition values. My logic says it can't be removed but only replaced
[Desire Android Development] Nickedynick:
I like the themed notification icons and stuff, but I'd prefer the launcher icons to be left alone tbh.
[Desire Android Development] dawmuz:
Anybody else have flaky GPS?
[Desire Android Development] vipinlahoti:
1.MTD do changes the Alpharev values, i hav no prob with spaces. but i just wanna know how to remove, in any kind of situation, just for educational purpose as u can say.

2. I have a problem with GPS, its not showing the exact location of mine,

(for example: now i'm in Madhya Pradesh, India.

but my location shows as im in Banglore which is almost 24hr far away by train:()

Any body have the same issue?
[Desire Android Development] ziggy1001:
Ok fair enough ;)

But my logic still says it can only be replaced:o
[Desire Android Development] ziggy1001:
The GPS problems try using a custom gps.conf which links to a sattelite pool specific to your country this was posted about before

Or sometimes just switching on GPS then rebooting helps

You can get Region, country specific lists here i think Cyanogen default is Europe

http://www.pool.ntp.org/en/
[Desire Android Development] StuMcBill:
So I assume this would only make my GPS faster within the UK, if I was to travel to the states (for example) would I still get a lock? It would just take a while?
[Desire Android Development] vipinlahoti:
Thnx GPS is working fine now,

i have One more issue, as i stay in university accomodation and i uses (transproxy) proxy server for wifi connect, here many times i tried to download stuffs from market,

system says "your download will starts automatically", but after couple of minutes download fails,

youtube n other website not opening as well:(
[Desire Android Development] MrDevil:
took the plunge and flashed custom mtd. :D

but just to clarify, the steps for updating nightlies is flash mtd recovery->rom->mtd boot?
[Desire Android Development] vipinlahoti:
well i dont think it takes a while, coz last month i traved to India from Birmingham, GPS was working perfect:) with out any delay.

me just got problem few days back;)
[Desire Android Development] vipinlahoti:
Flash bravo-boot-v1.5.3-CustomMTD followed by your ROM:)
[Desire Android Development] ziggy1001:
As far as i understand it the GPS config simply sets a pool of satellites which are either region or country specific which will be used to get your location(i think you can add multiple pools to the list)

The default pool in Cyanogen from memory is Europe so i guess this will work anywhere as satellites orbit the globe rather than hover over one region or country

So like most default values it should work for any location but a pool specific to your location does seem to lock quicker
[Desire Android Development] StuMcBill:
Can I use this, or something similar to automatically delete things from your rom as its flashed? I like the stock android bootanimation for example, so normally delete bootanimation.zip once I have flashed a new rom?
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
Is there a way to edit text files via ADB shell? I use an LCD density of 200, so after every nightly flash, I need to pull and push build.prop... is there a way to edit the file directly via the shell (so that I could make a script)?

Adding build.prop to the custom backup list would probably counterproductive, as it changes every build...
[Desire Android Development] ziggy1001:
In my experience GPS can be almost as flaky as the market on 2 different days with the same rom, radio, location etc the speed of a GPS lock varies greatly.

According to Garmin

" Certain atmospheric factors and other sources of error can affect the accuracy of GPS receivers."

So unless you understand all those factors and take them into account it's very difficult at times to know why GPS is either not working or just damned slow to lock

Having said that several DEVs and other greater mortals have posted in various places saying that a country specific gps.config should be better;)
[Desire Android Development] nachtschicht:
Hm, I think this isn't right. The correct procedure to update your ROM with nightlies is:

Enter recovery

Flash nightly (followed by flash Gapps and maybe other stuff)

Flash bravo-boot-v1.5.3-CustomMTD.zip

Flashing bravo-boot-v1.5.3-CustomMTD is always the last thing you do before leaving the recovery!! Otherwise ==> bootloop

Yes, it's working great, I'm using latest AmonRa recovery. No problems at all :)
[Desire Android Development] Narfx:
Of course. You have vim and nano available. Or ed, if you're masochistic :D
[Desire Android Development] najar360:
do i need to to change hboot to stock first?currently im on n1table

for mtdpartmap, i just create txt and inside put

echo "mtd 125 5" > /sdcard/mtpartmap.txt

and save at root right?
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
So vim and nano are built into CWM/AmonRa? How do I access them? :)
[Desire Android Development] nachtschicht:
Yes, there is no need to change hboot to something else first.

Just remeber to mount your sdcard before you execute the echo-command ;) otherwise there won't be any changes made to your partition layout ;)

And no, the file doesn't have to be saved at root, it's supposed to stay on /sdcard/
[Desire Android Development] ziggy1001:
I was on Bravo N1Table when i applied the custom MTD and it worked fine

Only problem i had was that the next nightly added 30Mb to data but i have no idea why/how that happened

Yeah just put the mtpartmap.txt on the root of sd card with the values you want
[Desire Android Development] najar360:
how to execute echo command?while on recovery?
[Desire Android Development] nachtschicht:
I noticed that too (and ended up in a bootloop first. My 115MB /system partition was a tiny bit too small I guess :D now I have 120MB).

I recommend you wipe cache and dalvik-cache, I think I saw that dalvik somehow grew bigger (but don't know why). Since the wipe everything is back to normal for me...

Do this with adb:

adb shell mount /sdcard

adb shell echo "mtd 120 30" > /sdcard/mtdpartmap.txt

adb shell umount /sdcard

I still recommend /cache to be something like 30MB because of market downloads (until kali changes the download destination from cache to sdcard)...
[Desire Android Development] najar360:
sorry, i'm kind lost here

i just create mtdpartmap.txt on windows and insert command 'echo "mtd 125 5" > /sdcard/mtdpartmap.txt. then save at root of sdcard

but when i follow the step, nothing happen

here are the step that i use

1. put mtdpartmap.txt into root sdcard

2. using fastboot erase system,userdata,boot,cache

3. flash recovery

4. reboot

5. using fastboot erase system,userdata,boot,cache

6. flash rom

7. flash boot

8. reboot

any extra step on put command echo?
[Desire Android Development] ziggy1001:
@nachtschicht

Any ideas why after using a custom MTD the next nightly flashover added 30Mb to data:confused:
[Desire Android Development] Narfx:
It's not in the recovery, it's in cm7. Mount /system and go to /sytem/xbin, you have everything there. It's not in $PATH, so you'll have to either add it or simply execute /system/xbin/nano filename.
[Desire Android Development] abc001:
Agree. In my case, it is not difficult to locate SATs, but hard or impossible to lock. Is there any other suggestion, I mean, after changing to country specific gps.conf?
[Desire Android Development] nachtschicht:
Only line that is allowed in the file is

mtd 120 30

Nothing else. Read my last post.

Any further discussion regarding MTD should be posted in the appropriate thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=806321

@ziggy1001: Like I said here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10979955&postcount=1049

I think it has something to do with dalvik-cache. Just try a wipe :)
[Desire Android Development] MrDevil:

[Desire Android Development] MrDevil:
i created mine on my pc and transferred it to the sdcard, had no problems.

here's the steps i used:

1.flashed bravo-recovery-v1.5.3-CustomMTD.zip

2.reboot recovery

3.format system, data and cache from recovery

4.flashed rom and gapps followed by bravo-boot-v1.5.3-CustomMTD.zip

5.reboot

hope it helps.

edit: when i change the mtpartmap.txt, do i need to reflash the recovery zip?
[Desire Android Development] nachtschicht:
@MrDevil: I just saw in your signature that you are already using 120/5/... so I also changed to that (25MB more data, yeah :D )

I made an nandroid backup before changing anything, wiped, applied 1st zip, rebooted recovery, wiped, restored nandroid backup, applied 2nd zip and rebooted. All went well :)

Hi, I have a question.

In the root folder of the phone are folders like: acct, cache, config, d, data, dev, vendor...and also some files: default.prop, init, init.goldfish.rc...

I had to add label to my ext partition to be able to use app2sd. Probably other files were added to this directory perviously or i will heve to add some in future. Is it possible to format everything and rewrite the information(I know system, data and cache can be formatted via recovery, but the other stuff) like full reinstall if the phone goes laggy or to delete something unusefull?
[Desire Android Development] killall:
@ziggy1001 - surely that can't be right, or my satellite tv signal would keep fading in and out? :confused:
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
Interestingly enough:

"The current GPS configuration consists of a network of 24 satellites in high orbits around the Earth. Each satellite in the GPS constellation orbits at an altitude of about 20,000 km from the ground, and has an orbital speed of about 14,000 km/hour (the orbital period is roughly 12 hours - contrary to popular belief, GPS satellites are not in geosynchronous or geostationary orbits)."

From http://www.astronomy.ohio-state.edu/~pogge/Ast162/Unit5/gps.html

Obviously your TV signal comes from different satellites ;)

On a different topic: Has anyone else got the problem that when Bluetooth is on, the Launcher reloads very often? Whenever I have Bluetooth on (HID keyboard and a headset connected), Launcher Pro reloads every time I press the home button... without Bluetooth that pretty much never happens.

[Desire Android Development] Nekromantik:

[Desire Android Development] Murd0ck:
i think the only reason to why they haven't added the blue is couse the blue dosen't have an simple blinking option so they would need to make a script to turn it off and on.

Yeah i like that Music3 app which was removed i've attached a copy of it renamed to Music.apk just replace in the nightly before flashing or copy/paste overwrite it to system/app and install and it'll work rootexplorer will do that if you change permissions to r/w
