Guest Polzme Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 (edited) Hello, I just registered to these forums to get the MCR r5 ROM for my HTC Desire. I used the EVO 3 Tool to install a custom recovery image and flash the device the with the rom. I've included the new radio in the kitchen, but not a2sd or a2sd+. I think my device is bricked now. It's boot looping at the HTC 'quietly brilliant' logo... I don't know what to do, can you help me ? Thanks...

Thanks... was you using apps2sd, if so is your ext partition ext4 unless a kernel has been modified as far as I am aware, you can only use ext2 or 3 this may be the reason why.

Guest munkimatt Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 (edited) Anyone else seeing a massive increase in battery drain on r5? Edited July 17, 2010 by munkimatt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest klutsh Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 I want my money back. this is just crap. titanium backup not working, market not able to install apps Ha, your complaining about a in development work in progress as is clearly stated. No one claimed it was fully working, and if you could be bothered to read you would have seen reports of these problems already. Make your own if you think you deserve better!

Guest dreamdealer Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 can someone who is not using apps2SD confirm that the phone does or does not reboot into the quietly brilliant screen when moving an app from the manage applications to your sdcard via google apps2SD please?

Guest Blackfish79 Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 Anyone else seeing a massive increase in battery drain on r5? yes, but check your apps. i've removed the "LED Light" widget and the battery problem is solved. i think some apps are not really compatible with froyo.

Guest Paul Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 Hi Paul, I have an idea regarding your kitchen... Would it be possible to generate an XML file when you bake a rom which details all the options that you selected when baking your rom. When you come to bake another rom (e.g. if an update has been released) then you could upload the xml file and it would select the options that you had previously used on your old bake? :angry: This is coming! :D P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Paul Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 @Paul, AdamG over @XDA has confirmed what I was thinking. Biggest problem with this 2.06 base rom is the Kernel /dev isn't being created correctly This is also the cause of Froyo's Apps2SD failing to move apps to SD source: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.p...p;postcount=656 Oh! I'll check it out and rollback the kernel if required. P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Mondaro Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 (edited) My phone is boot looping... I don't use apps2sd. Dunno what to do :D nandroid back the backup you surely have created :angry: i had bootloop, too when first flashing r5 over r4. figured out it has somehow been triggered by not having enough space on built-in storage. after nandroid and removing some apps and baking a smaller rom it happened to function flawlessly.

Guest Polzme Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 nandroid back the backup you surely have created ;) i had bootloop, too when first flashing r5 over r4. figured out it has somehow been triggered by not having enough space on built-in storage. after nandroid and removing some apps and baking a smaller rom it happened to function flawlessly. Problem solved, we must WIPE everything and flash the rom. Now I'm an happy user of MCR R5 on my brand new htc desire :angry: Thanks to the Modaco Team, can't wait for the stable release :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest theblueraja Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 My phone is boot looping... I don't use apps2sd. Dunno what to do :angry: Clear all cache and wipe, if that doesn't work try another bake without A2SD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Pittek Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 (edited) I want my money back. this is just crap. titanium backup not working, market not able to install apps What a....ok :angry: ROM works great, i have found no issues beside double shortcuts (same shortcut/widget overlays the other) after an install w/o wipe. Deleting the shortcut on top resolved everything. Best is i came from MCR3.1 w/o wipe over r4 w/o wipe to r5, i expected a lot of unusual errors since i never wiped, but for me this runs as stable as hell. Kudos again Paul, u somehow rock :D Edited July 17, 2010 by Pittek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest daniozzo83 Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 Oh! I'll check it out and rollback the kernel if required. P hi paul, i think i founded a little bug: i see adobe flash 10.1 installed, but it couldn't be uninstalled (even it can't be eventually updated) cause it's not showed in market... i've a question too: if you made another release (r5 wip next i think) i can update without wipe from actual r5 wip? do i lose something or is it better i save all of my data(i use mybackup pro do u suggest titanium? ) and wipe all? thank you for your job....

Deleting the shortcut on top resolved everything. idem here. no wipe from R4, apsd+... rom perfect (beside double shortcuts ), market OK,... thanks a lot Paul.

Guest Polzme Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 I've spotted a small problem with Titanium Backup. I don't know if it's MCR related or sth else... I mainly use Titanium Backup to remove apps I don't use. I tried to remove Facebook and Facebook for HTC Sense and the phone reboot during the uninstall process. I've installed busybox of course.
