Anybody try build 2 yet, as in install over the top?

carried by the monkeys that flew out my butt

[jahlewis]

I tried 0, and got the boot loop, even after wiping cache/settings.  I'm ready to do a complete fresh start with my desire.  Forgive my newbie questions, but I need pointers to :
1) upgrading clockworkmod to 3.? (i'm running 2.?).  
2) wiping and formatting my SD card to a newer file system (EXT3?)
3) which IRC server is #teamdesire on?

Thanks.

Sweet! I wonder if it's functional on the BravoC tho. . . it would provide some decent performance enhancements afaik.



Interesting design decision. I didn't notice that when I was running it. (I have to backup all my stuff from my CM6 that I'm still running here)



THANK YOU KALI-! I can't wait to try it




Don't worry about the cache partition size. Everything works good without it--simply because it's redirected to data by the CM installer's verify_cache_partition_size.sh



The highlighted section made me lol

Anyway, unless CM7 gains a lot of size in weight (which it won't), your cMTD settings will be fine as they are. Just remember to run Firerat's boot patch after every install



There isn't. I assume he was on the CDMA forums mistakenly.

Trust me i laughed at myself over that one too and thanks i will give that a try

Have build two up and running thanks to installing the boot patcher after the install and seems to be working good

Sorry to ask the question, but I cannot find the initial guide I used to install 6.1.1 with CMTD.

I want to try out the nightlies... but how do I flash so that I keep CMTD and all the space it frees up?

Thanks in advance for any help guys!

[2fast4u88]

That is because ennon pulled his guide and the files. So everyone would use his eui installer. I have the files and the install is pretty easy if you need them. Also I've installed the first nightly and a few other I know with out a problem. Cept one was getting corrupted google apps and a boot loop. So I gave him what I had and all worked out fine.

So either something was done wrong. Or you got a corrupt download which I seem to get a lot of on here. It seems real bad when a new release comes out and everyone is downloading it.

My battery life blows on this build though for me. Not sure why but my phone still is warm/hot than froyo.

[YANKZFAN007]

Sorry my question came across worng.. but thanks for the quick response..
I currently have the files and everything on the 6.1.1. that I am running right now..
I just cant remember how to keep those CMTD settings while flashing a new rom...

Again, thanks in advance!

You can find a guide to CMTD and all the needed files on MIUI: http://forums.miui-d...-4-Simple-Steps!

My phone does not seem to get hot at all and battery is not too bad iam running it without juice defender for now to see how long it lasts today

Edit: Figured out what I did wrong with the Alarm, no issues there, lol

Edit:
Also noticed that the Video Camera doesn't work, however I think this has also been posted somewhere else too.

[Ellingsoc]

The clock worked great this morning for me didn't have a problem as with GPS battery seems on par with cm6

[GOZ]

What I noticed is screen scrolling is laggy....batt life seems bad compaired to 6.1.1 with vork, I would love to try the vork version of the kernel to see if it makes a diff with batt life on 7. But seems to be a good start so far.

On #0 I could not get gps to work even after using gps status to clear and re download agps data.
angry birds and a few other games played fine. (NFS shift did not work)

on #2 angry birds and other games cease to work.  I got a GPS lock once in gps status but never got it to lock later in Google maps.

screen scrolling and battery life have been excellent for me on #0 (i ditched #2 since it seemed a step backwards)

I've been running 2 for a couple hours.  I just finished restoring all of my apps from titanium and I've noticed that my phone is hot.  I'm also charging it...  The temp is 104F. I hope it starts cooling down soon.

gps and angry birds are working fine.

Angry birds works fine for me. I downloaded Nightly 2 and didn't bother formatting Data or Cache, so I didn't have to restore with Titanium backup. I'll comment on GPS and Battery life later.

[ipfreelytech]

No, I just did an install over top of #0, but installing #0 on top of #2 made them work again.

even stranger, I just fired up GPS status and got a lock. I'm at 61°N in the winter so I wonder if the time of day has anything to do with the gps issues since no one else seems to have them.

1) Flash it via adb in recovery. I can't recall how to do that offhand though. Google for 'flash clockworkmod adb' or something
2) This can be done via CWM3. I think that the CWM2 we have now formats as ext3 though? I'll have to check.
3) Freenode

@YANKZ: Anyway, all my guides are technically *down* right now. ALL of them, including non-EUI, will be back up once my new website is finished (a few days). Sorry about the inconvenience.

For cMTD:

Make sure that you have your mtdpartmap.txt on the root of your SD card. Optimal settings for it would be around 130 5 or something (130 for system size, 5 for cache size). Then get Firerat's cMTD files. Use the recovery.zip he has to configure the recovery on your phone for cMTD. Then do a full wipe (+ system) and reboot recovery. Then install the ROM as normal. Once finished, flash Firerat's boot.zip to patch the ROM to use cMTD settings. Reboot and you should be good to go

@2fast: Yes, my phone gets hot with CM7 as well. Battery life I can't comment as I didn't play around with CM7 much before restoring back.

I've stress tested my Desire--I got it up to 125 degrees F lol. You're doing good at 104
