Guest ohio66 Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 Some time ago I upgraded from stock to Moldovan Mile high Mountain Pie RLS9. Recently I used TPT to change GEN1 to Gen 2 using the MHMP RLS9 all in one TPT file. Mr Pigfish now tells me I have a GEN2 ZTE Blade. Checking with Freespace the gave following; Cache 42MB Data 316 MB System 138MB (which as far as I can see is TPT v10c partitioning.) Now the questions 1) Is the v10c partition above suitable for Jellybean? 2) If not can I use TPT Gen1 to Gen2 v10x to change to a more suitable size 3) If I need to do 2 above will I lose the ROM in the process? 4) What sizes are reccommened for JB on a UK ZTE Blade (was an Orange san Francisco originally) Sorry for all the questions but I have managed not to brick my phone so far and don't want to start now! Any help would be much appreciated, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ohio66 Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 Thanks for the quick reply Diehard. Unfortunately that leaves me in bit of a problem as I can't see how to change the partitions as I am not an expert at this . If I run TPT v10a then how do I then apply the JB rom. Can you point me to any Idiots guides to doing what I want to do. Thanks again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ohio66 Posted October 29, 2012 Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 (edited) Sorry to trouble you again but I am still a bit lost,on the url you sent me to read the below paragraph says I cannot use this? Mr Pigfish tells me that I have a GEN2 and original android version was 2.2 ie problem is " None of the downloads on this page will work if your phone was sold with or operator upgraded to Android 2.2. [iNFO ON URL @ XDA "It is for European Gen1 ZTE Blades, Orange San Franciscos, Sapo A5s & Base Luteas sold with Android 2.1 Eclair only. None of the downloads on this page will work if your phone was sold with or operator upgraded to Android 2.2 Froyo. In that case, you already have the upgraded radio firmware. This is a safer alternative to the operator 2.2 upgrades which keeps some of the good features of Gen1 (like fastboot mode, tpt mode & extra storage space), but upgrades everything necessary to run Gen2 Android 2.2 Froyo & Android 2.3 Gingerbread roms."] FYI after going from stock GEN1 to jellyfish and then to Gen1 MHMP RSL9 then switched to gen 2 with ROM MHMP RLS9 as a one off from the TPT helper, So now I am completely confused can I still do what I want to do to get JB on my phone 1) load the JB ROM onto my SD card 2) Change the Gen2 v10c to Gen2 v10a to get the 160MB system then install the JB ROM from for th SD card thru CWM Forgot to add that current vesion of Android on the phone is 2.3.5 I thought I was understanding this stuff but I am not too sure!

Guest jonmac73 Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 (edited) hopefully you're sorted by now but if not.......... Use TPT Helper from the market & install 10a (downloads the TPT for you to the right place & menu driven for all the steps - even deletes the TPT image after successful boot. Does out an older version of CWM on though in case your running the latest touch screen one. That's what I did & went from SSRLS7 (GB) to KonstaT CM10 (JB 4.1) with no probs on my UK supplied Orange San Fran, which was Gen 1 from new and I TPT'd ages ago to 140Mb system under Swedish Spring ROM ages ago. All fine for me including latest CWM Touch & have JB running pleasantly well on old Blade. Slightly laggy on occasions to screen presses but perfectly usable. Games run better, APEX/ Nova launcher are really good, wifi seems better (works even with low signal now). For anyone in UK I use mine as personal phone (weekend use only really) as well as work one running Ovivio mobile PAYG SIM. £5 initial cost then freemins/txt/data every month for free (AD supported browsing). Not sure how long it will last but perfect for my occasional light data needs. Been with them 2 months now and no probs - just increased allowances too.

Guest ohio66 Posted November 7, 2012 Report Share Posted November 7, 2012 Hi thanks to your help I am now running Android 4.1.2 and so far seems O.K. Wifi was a bit ropey at first but has settled down now. Used CyanogenMod 10-20121028-KonstaKANK-Blade after changing the partitions with v10a TPT. (FYI the first time I used the TPT I forgot to extract it, felt a twit when I found out why it did not work!!) Anyway thanks again PS Just need to pluck up my courage now to mod my Motorola M604 UK wifi Tablet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ohio66 Posted November 8, 2012 Report Share Posted November 8, 2012 Update report; video in BBC news is quite strange in that the audio starts with frozen video which starts some seconds later (in Synch)also YOU TUBE is very laggy on video. I guess the YOUTUBE problem is part of the CM10 problem but did not think this affected things like BBC news video items. Any idea if Iplayer will be supportable on android 4.1.2. Thanks very much again for your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
