Gparted is fairly easy to do. Boot your computer into Ubuntu and connect your SD card to your USB port using a USB card reader (not your through your phone). Then just go to gparted in the application list and reformat and partition the card the way you wish.
[HTC Aria General] cHarley04:
Just remember that the first (main) partition needs to be FAT32, followed by your smaller ext partition.
[HTC Aria General] ezone010:
Gparted is not as easy as mentioned above. If you use windows system and not familiar with linux, it's quite complicated for my pont of view.

I guess you have two choices:

1. Gparted under win (Gparted+VMwareplayer), faster reading speed

2. Partition Magic(but reading speed for sd card might be slower than solution 1), easier operation.
[HTC Aria General] tommyguns818:
So I ran the CD and my 32gb shows 26gb at fat32 and 4gb unallocated? Is my 4gb lost? ok... Got that problem resolved, now a new one. ive made my main fat32 and then for some reason i get a flag on my /dev/sdc2 ext3 partition after ive selected apply.
[HTC Aria General] tommyguns818:
So I was wondering is the flag icon going to be a problem? Or is this puppy ready go!!!
[HTC Aria General] tommyguns818:
Found the problem.....faulty SD card!!!! This a lesson to myself. Never buy a no name SD card from ebay. I grabbed a patriot, made myself an ext3 partition using gparted. No flag popped up and installed s2e and we are good now. Thank peeps. Delete this thread if you want.
[HTC Aria General] stellarhopper:
I know you solved this but just throwing this out as an FYI...

I have the same triangle/exclamatiuon problem almost whenever I do a backup/restore etc...

I found if I pull the battery, and immediately reboot into recovery manually -- by pressing vol down and power, the phone takes the previous command (like backup/restore/partition) and goes ahead with it...

Maybe Mines' a failing SD card...but I back it up regularly :)

Should i buy a nook and put nookie froyo on it? Or should i just save my money on a ipad 2. What do you guys suggest? I want to know what the community thinks of the Nook with nookie froyo,
[Nook Color General] therealguppy:
Wow really.... I think that really really really depends on what you want and what you are willing to pay for.......

If you want a 7inch screen and a incomplete Android rom, with the ability to grow and change, and all this for 250$.... then get the nook....

If you want a 10inch screen with a Complete IOS, and willing to pay 500+$ then get the ipad2.......

Only you can Answer this question. If you want a Answer from a forum then go to a apple forum where they will just tell you to get the Ipad2.
[Nook Color General] Alex209Cali:
Thanks

The Ipad 2 is very nice. The Xoom is very nice too. And there are a few other nice tablets coming soon. It's your call.

I personally am very happy with my Nook. But if you don't like modifying, you should stay away.
[Nook Color General] moonpie28:
Get them both!
[Nook Color General] kar_:
also depens on what you want to do with it. Do you allready use itunes? are you tech savy? Do you want to watch mostly films? Do you want to be able to adapt everything you want? Do you allready have an android phone or an iphone?
[Nook Color General] Alex209Cali:
I have a android phone. I dont think im willing to waste 550 when I can just a rom on the nook

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhofker:
Hey all,

I have an Alltel HTC Desire, which came with 2.1. Rooted with unRevoked3, so I have ClockworkMod 2.5.0.9. (Yep, I've search around, which is how I was able to get this far, though it seems no one else hits these issues)

I'm having issues getting various CDMA ROMs to load. I've tried [1]CM7 RC2, RC1, latest two nightlies, and none of them have worked. (Following the guide here[2])

The first time I loaded CM7 RC2, I got to the CM7 loading screen, but it just kept looping over and over. At that point, I loaded the latest [3]radio and tried again. After I install their zip (every version I listed) from sdcard and reboot the device, it just hangs at the provider (Alltel) logo on boot.

Then I tried CM6 (6.1.1) - that eventually worked and booted fine, but GPS couldn't catch, alerts (txt/calls) didn't go, and despite loading the correct [4]gapps, the Market app never showed up. :-(

The backup I made of my rooted stock 2.1 stops on the Alltel logo when I restore it, too. Generally I can restore the CM6.1.1 backup, but I'm getting nervous. :-)

Any thoughts? What is everyone else running on their Alltel Desire (radio, ROM)?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tbgreen89:
So i have flashed CM7 Rc2 and Nightlie 14 and i still get this wierd problem. BTW, im on the stock theme.

Picture 1 - CM7 RC1 - LCD Density Changer set at 160 - Works Great!

Picture 2 - CM7 Nightlie 14 - LCD Density Changer set at 160 - Heres what happens...

1... 2...

I have a feeling that from here on out this is how all the nightlies and future Rc's will be... Unless thier is a problem with the framework or something.

Any ideas?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tbgreen89:
!!Update!!

I just flashed the Midnight Gingerbread theme and now it seems to be working just fine... But if i use any of the 3 themes that come with the theme choser its messes up.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drmacinyasha:
Set your DPI to 162. 160 is known to have issues on HDPI devices, and 161 messes up some apps (like the Market). 162 seems to work fine for me on every theme. :)
[EVO Shift 4G General] Jo_795:
Is there one for this phone thats functional? Ive seen the term AOSP tossed around and possibly CM7??? can anyone care to give some insight on this?
[EVO Shift 4G General] epitaphromance:
lol, i dont understand what your looking for. do you want a stock rom with sense like you had when you got the phone but rooted? or do you want a senseless rom like cm7? now i've seen the term STOCK tossed around.
[EVO Shift 4G General] lilgrass71:
I think he's looking for a true aosp rom that's just google code with it modified to work for the shift... I came from a hero recently and we had a true aosp rom with no frill like you would have found on a nexus one. It was great... fastest thing in the world... like doing a clean install of windows xp or 7... I too wish to see one on the shift... I know evervolv is aosp but its modified with themes and tweaks but its as close as we have I think...

I think as the phone picks up some development someone will put out a true aosp rom... just give it time?

Would love to see the full potential of this phone with just an os though

I got on and grabbed the CM7 build from last night. So far only 2 issues.

Geolocation doesn't work yet.

[EVO Shift 4G General] EmperorX:
Geolocation works for me. I've been using navigation every day. I posted a screen shot previously.
[EVO Shift 4G General] zeropants:
With which build? I grabbed one that was new as of about 10 pm last night. Geolocation wasn't working on it. MMS worked with GoSMS but not with stock...everything else seemed fine.
[EVO Shift 4G General] EmperorX:
Mine works from the most recent build as of 1 am. It had also worked on the previous build others were having issues with so I don't know....
[EVO Shift 4G General] zeropants:
The one I grabbed last night in irc people were saying geolocation wasn't working on it. I know another kernel was being updated as I was on there but I didn't stay connected long enough. I'll grab a newer one tonight.

[EVO Shift 4G General] EmperorX:
I flashed directly over the previous build so that may be why my navigation still works? No idea.
[EVO Shift 4G General] zeropants:
Someone said getting a GPS lock from a different rom then flashing directly to Cm7 would fix it...but I don't want to have to try and flash over non-cm7 or reinstall everything just yet.

I'll just wait for a newer kernel. Maybe the updated 1.9 will be in IRC soon
[EVO Shift 4G General] jesusice:
Did you try GPS Status? When I used CM7 I couldn't get a lock until I downloaded GPS Status and had it download the AGPS (or whatever it's called..) data.

Just tried that. It finds everything for me but geolocation still doesn't work.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JewRican:
I installed myn's rom and love it! In doing so I wanted to play around since this is my first ROM I have installed. I installed a transparent titlebar, battery mod, and gingerbread menus from his list of optional items.

I then found f(red)'s gingerbread experience modifications that are listed here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=866158

Now i am kinda stuck.. Now in the menus i have white buttons with white text in them.. so in short, i cant see anything :(

How can i correct this? Can i somehow load Myn's themeing back and then lay what i want on top of it to get what i want? I just dont want to have to reload the rom and wipe my phone.. it is just a pain in the butt to do so.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JewRican:
so i am not thinking... right now i am doing a clockwork backup and will use ROM manager to apply the same rom on top of itself. Then will apply the gingerbread experience items one by one afterwards.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sgtagem:
Did you do any backups before you started appliying mods? Best to do a restore then boot into recovery and flash the mod. if you flash over too much it tends to get like too many layers paint on a wall. Not sure if this help at all but ill look into it a bit more for you :)
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JewRican:
That would have been too smart ;)

Fortunately i have gotten my themeing back by just reapplying the rom but i just lost root it seems. I cannot use setcpu, wifi tethering, nor titanium backup.. but i have no clue why.

It is like i lost root. How can i get this back?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RMarkwald:
Do you have the SuperUser icon? Try clearing its cache. Did you try to reinstall SetCPU, does it pop up the permissions box?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JewRican:
i downloaded and installed an app called root checker which verified that i somehow did not have root anymore... crazy.

I just did a full wipe (cache and all) and reloaded the ROM and all is well again. no clue why it did this or how... what can i say.. it is what it is I guess.

[Captivate General] ajm786:
I've read in many places that Samsung put hardware acceleration in their browser on their phones.

If that's true, why is browsing so unbelievably jerky? I'm running the latest Firefly ROM, FYI. My co-worker was showing me his iPhone 4 and its browsing experience, and it just completely demolished my Captivate. :mad:
[Captivate General] Kailkti:
Well maybe the site you were on had flash stuff on it. That will slow down the browser regardless of whether or not it has been hardware accelerated.

I haven't seen any big lags on the captivate i'm using right now, even with flash. Even with my HD2, browsing isn't laggy.
[Captivate General] ajm786:
The test site we were using was Engadget, the desktop version (not the mobile version). So I guess mine was much more choppier because it had Flash going on, while the iPhone did not?
[Captivate General] Dani897:
try turning off plugins and compare again. ill bet it's the flash
[Captivate General] ajm786:
Nope. Turned off Flash as well as disabling Javascript, same old. Jerky and very unsmooth. Not to mention it checkerboards.
[Captivate General] modest_mandroid:
You should see how fast the browser is in the leaked 2.3 rom that popped up two weeks ago. The speed difference between the 2.2 and leaked 2.3 browser is VERY noticeable and makes the 2.2 browser look like the alpha leak.
[Captivate General] ajm786:
Is it possible to put the browser from the 2.3 into 2.2 ROMs?
[Captivate General] TRusselo:
there is no gurantee that hardware accellerated browsing made it through the rom cutting process, there are many things removed as "bloat ware" that arent bad or carrier applied, also you mentioned with "their browser" does your rom use "their browser"?

"hardware accelerated" doesnt mean "will just work".
[Captivate General] ajm786:
I have no idea if Firefly uses the Samsung browser. I'll ask in the ROM thread. Still, it's pretty pathetic the difference between the iPhone user experience and the Android user experience.
[Captivate General] TRusselo:
my browsing is great, even on flash video sites like watch.thecomedynetwork.ca (canada only). everything loads quick and plays nicely, with default browser and dolphin browser.

its possible your phone doesnt like the modem your rom uses. try a new modem.

its kind of unfair to flash custom software and say the "phone" is worse than another, you arent comparing to stock approved software for your phone and location.

its like saying your computer sucks because it got a virus..
[Captivate General] ajm786:
I tried multiple modems. First one was JL2, I'm on JK4 now. I don't see how a modem would equate to displaying a webpage. Loading, yes, but displaying, how?

I'm running a custom ROM to give this phone a fair chance. Running the complete garbage that is stock ROM on this phone is laughable at best.
[Captivate General] di11igaf:
if your browser is checkerboarding you must be on the stock 2.2.1 browser that is horrible. find the 2.2.1 browser thread and i have a .zip in there will fix checkerboarding and somewhat the gif issue also.

and even if the iphone browser is a little smoother(which i didnt notice a big difference in my iphone 4 and captivate), the 2.2(and 2.1 for that matter) browser loads pages significantly faster. mine did every page every time. the iphones browser also seems smoother when zooming because it does not reflow text AT ALL. our phones do. ill take the text reflowing any day.
[Captivate General] TRusselo:
are you using any task managers or antivirus programs? anything that may be running in the background on boot and/or scanning what you are doing/veiwing?
[Captivate General] fatttire:
Hardware accelerated browser app is on the leaked Samsung ginngerbread that doesn't work on our cappies?
[Captivate General] ajm786:
No, I use none of them. I'm aware that Froyo negates the need for any type of task manager/task killers. No anti-virus either (unnecessary).

All I'm doing is opening the browser and viewing a page like Engadget. The scrolling/pinch to zoom is very jerky and is not fluid at all.
[Captivate General] sircaper:
Just to add what the OP is saying, I am on Cognition 3.04 and I notice the browser is jerky when scrolling and just generally laggy when scrolling or re-sizing. I would say worse than stock in terms of the experience on the page, not talking about load times.
[Captivate General] shinji257:
Running Cognition 4.1.1 here and it seems good to me. Maybe a little jerky on scrolling but nothing serious. Pinch zoom is smooth.
