[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigFellor:
I just rooted my MyTouch 3g Slide for the first time and installed Cyanoginger 1.1 I have a couple of quick questions. Edit: Now using Cyanogen 7.0

1. Every time I boot into recovery this thing goes through the long process of checking and wanting to load / update ESPRIMG.zip. I can tell it to not update and not reboot to get back to the menu to then load update.zip to get into ClockworkMod recovery. Is there a way to set Clockwork as the default recovery so I don't have to do this every time?

2. Apps2SD. How? It looks like this is included with the 2.2 ROMs now, right? Do I need to partition the SD card to be able to use this? How do I do that and what do I partition it as? Edit: Ok, so I figured out how to get the apps to install there and how to move them there. DO I need to partition this card for any reason?

3. I installed Cyanoginger and it looks nice, but the Market gets an error and closes every time I try to open it. Do I need to install the GAPPS also? Edit: Yep ... got that fixed.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MusicMan374:
1. You're talking about the bootloader. That white screen when it checks for esprimg, that's the bootloader, not recovery. You then have to select recovery and flash clockwork. Or, you can use the built in app called rom manager, and select reboot recovery. It skips all that for you. And by the way, you can delete esprimg from your sd card.

2. No, the froyo built in apps2fat (apps2sd) does not need a separate partition. You only need a separate ext partition if you use a rom with apps2ext, which is different. The built in function does not need a different partition.

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xosilzu:
Hi everyone, Im new to the forums. I was researching alot about the droid eris because I have one and I would like to ask for help. I'm not familiar with the term "flashing" on here. I looked at the new CM 7 theme and I really want to try it out, but Im the type of person who needs step by step, otherwise things go all wrong. Can someone help me out with the installation of CM 7?

Thanks
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doogald:
Well, based on that, the best method to use for rooting the phone is here: http://androidforums.com/eris-all-things-root/127861-universal-eris-root-dummies.html

When you get to post number 4 in that thread, it will walk you through the steps you need to know in order to flash (or install) a new ROM. There is one major difference with Gingerbread - you'll need to do an extra step to install the Google applications, which includes the market - quite necessary. You'll need to download the .zip files for both the CM7 (or Gingerbread) ROM and the Google apps package. Following the steps in Universal root above, you'll first flash CM7, then follow that step again to flash the google apps zip, then restart the phone.

When the time comes to install the CM7 ROM, if you are not:

- running Nandroid backup

- wiping data

- wiping Dalvik cache

- flashing CM7

- flashing google apps

then you are not doing it right.

You can find GSB and the Google apps package in one of these two threads:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=945324

I use the first one myself, but I am sure that the second (Tazz) is just fine.

Remember, you need to download and move those .zip files to the SD card before you start the process.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xosilzu:
I see, I've already downloaded the CM 7.zip, so this whole process requires root eh? Hopefully I do this all right, CM 7 is a really nice install. I'll see if I can find out all the other things like erasing dalvik and all that, I can wipe out the data and stuff, but I also havent heard of dalvik, I'll try to find it somewhere on this forums, sometimes I can be too much of someones trouble with these things. :o

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kdm2008:
Hi,

I've searched around the forum but I can't seem to find an answer to this one.

I was wondering if it is possible to unlock (i.e. remove the simlock) on the Nexus S?

I see that the bootloader has been unlocked and that new ROMS can be written to the phone, so does this mean that everything is erased (including the simlock) and that any sim can be used with it once this is done?

Thanks!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krohnjw:
The phone is not sim locked, only sold subsidized through t-mobile
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kdm2008:
Unfortunately it is simlocked to Orange UK !
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krohnjw:
That's a bummer. Did you get it from CPW (just curious)?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenvan19:
That's not possible. Every Nexus S is carrier unlocked but is band limited to T-Mobile bands.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kdm2008:
No, got it from WeBuy http://uk.webuy.com/

This appears to be the case, except the T-Mobile bit! :)

So even when its band limited can this be removed?

This is brilliant news if it is unlocked - Unfortunately can't try it atm cause i don't have it with me - can anyone else confirm? This forum appears to reinforce this idea... http://androidforums.com/nexus-s/275180-help-need-unlock-my-nexus-s.html
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rusty!:
Band is limited by hardware, and it will work on any of the UK carriers, no matter what CEX says.

I'd be inclined to say it's an error on their part anyway, they sell the Nexus One as 'mint' for more than that.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zorak950:
It's possible to SIM lock a Nexus S, but somebody between the factory and the point of sale has to do so, because they're not manufactured that way. In other words, if your phone is SIM locked, you picked the wrong seller. :P

But the bands the phone can use are the bands it can use; it's a hardware thing, not a software thing. The Nexus S has quad-band 2G GSM connectivity, so you should be able to use 2G pretty much anywhere in the world, but it only has tri-band 3G connectivity, so depending on where you live there's an excellent chance you'll either be restricted to one or two carriers or have no options at all for 3G. That doesn't mean the phone won't function on those networks, just that the data connectivity will be very slow when you're not connected to WiFi.

I know 3G works fully on bands I and IV, and the specs indicate it should work on band VIII. I heard second-hand that somebody was getting partial functionality on band IX as well, but I certainly wouldn't count on that one.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kdm2008:
Ummm, I thought it might be, but then I thought because it was locked to Orange that was why :rolleyes:
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dragon546:
Only vodafone uk and CPW has the NS and the only locked units is possibly Voda UK. CPW units are sim free hence the 430 price tag. Check with CEX if the imei is legit . They have had users sell the phone to them later file the phone has been stolen.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kdm2008:
Well I tried it out, but in the end I decided not to buy the phone as the main menu button required a ridiculously hard press in order to get it to work and then it only worked about one time out of three!

I take it that the Nexus S is not generally like this, and this one was just a bit faulty???

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eramon:
So I've loaded the latest OneClickRoot with CWM3 and EXT4 and then I've attempted to load Bonsai4all but:

- booted into CWM and the first time it converted the partitions to EXT4 (as expected). At this step there was also an automated backup performed.

- performed a manual backup from CWM.

- went to load a zip from sdcard and the Bonsai4All started its upgrade.

- THERE WAS NOT ENOUGH SPACE ON THE SDCARD to do the 3rd Bonsai backup... so in the middle of it I'm guessing it failed and it quickly rebooted the phone.

- After the SAMSUNG logo the screen goes black and the phone is just buzzing as if apps are crashing and it never goes beyond that :(

Here's what I've tried to recover:

- Clean up the SD card and make a lot more room available (7GB)

- Boot in CWM and attempt to recover from both backups - neither worked - same behavior.

-Attempt to load Bonsai again - this went through, the phone boots up (with numerous buzzes and a long time)... shortly after unlocking it it keeps rebooting... phone is unusable.

What is the best way to recover the phone? I thought the CWM backup/restore should take care of this... Will I have to wipe everything out?

Please help - I have no phone now :(

Bonsai 2 now does a backup and restore of part of your phone when it installs. It also seems to have some issues installing over stock dk28. Odin to dk28. Reroot and cwm. Restore backup from before the crash. Flash Bonsai 2.

Instead of restoring a backup before flashing bonsai, you can also flash something like bonsai 1.1.4, which is basically the same thing without the no-journal mod baked in.

But you know froyo comes out tomorrow, right? Every rom will have a new build out shortly.

I have tried almost every rom out there. Some package specific (non-stock) kernels, which may not be the best out-of-the-box experience, depending on your hardware.

I too +1 for Myn's RLS5. It's stock-esque, but better, if that's what you're looking for.

If you want to be adventurous, try MIUI. It's fricken' awesome, but doesn't have 4G yet or HDMI. I've found the HDMI personally to be worthless anyway after buying an adapter on eBay.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agreeler:
Myns is very stable. I've been using it since I've rooted my phone, and no matter how many different ROMS I try, I always come back to Myns because it just plain works. Also, Myns ROM thread is incredibly active, and if you ask a question there, more than likely you'll have a solution/answer by the next hour. Ontop of that, myn reads most, if not every post in the thread and listens to what the community likes and doesn't like about his work, and keeps them updated on what he plans to work on etc.

I'm sure other people can make similar arguments for other ROMS, but I just thought I would share my thoughts.

I've tried Myns, Ava, Kings, Elite, Fresh, Azrael, and MikFroyo. Most of them have been pretty stable, but IMO MikFroyo is where it's at. If you need a bit more eye candy, Kings is based of MikFroyo and has a ton of themes.

Although my biased opinion says try CM7 again :p

Personally I have tried a ton. Sense based: MikFroyo and Myn's. But I would also have to say MikFroyo. After a few weeks of using both Mik is less laggy. Plus he has an optimized LauncherPro which did it for me since I use the car dock a lot and need a landscape launcher.

I'm not the type to flash every single ROM so my experience is limited to Baked Snack, Fresh, and CM7 RC1/nightlies. I'm figuring a nice Sense ROM will be best for her.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
I ran Fresh before I made the jump to MIUI, it's a great ROM, very stable and bug free. That would be my recommendation. He doesn't update it as much as some of the other devs do theirs, but that will prevent you from having to update often.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zanim:
Hi,

After having the Desire for a year now I finally decided to root and flash a rom. Got through the root pretty well but am now struggling with the rom.

I flashed Oxygen and all looked and felt great until i tried to add a shortcut and widget to my front screen as it never did anything when i chose the option. Then when I pressed the lock button the screen would not boot back up. The key pad lit up but no screen. I took the battery out and rebooted but still the same thing happened.

Ive now done a nadroid restore and back to the stock rom but like the simplicity of Oxygen. Any idea's what it could have been? Can you put widgets and shortcuts on roms?

Before installing i did a facory reset, are there any other resets i need to do?

Sorry for all the questions,

Thx
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meaple:
Hmmmm would seem something messed up. You can try reflashing it. That usually works with a rom (has done for me before). I don't know what launcher Oxygen comes with but you can try another launcher for free and see if that's any different.

When you change to a different rom, you should do a factory reset and wipe the Dalvik cache as well. If your upgrading a rom, you don't need to wipe anything.

To be honest, I am going to install Oxygen and see if there are any errors with it because a lot of people seem to be having issues with it.

**EDIT**

I installed Oxygen RC7 no problems at all. Did data wipe, cache wipe and Dalvik cache wipe then installed it. Added widgets, apps and shortcuts to the launcher.

I guess something messed up for you to wipe as I said above and flash it again.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zanim:
Cheers for that, i'll give it another try later.

Is it worth updating my radio as there seems to be a lot of debate to weather you need to despite some roms requesting specific radios?
