Does this work for anyone on TFT? On 1 phone i get crashes all the time and another TFT phone it gets stuck on "android" screen at startup.

EDIT: formatting cache, system, boot etc then re-flashing this rom fixed the problem

I'm having the same problem - I've installed the ROM but when switching the phone on it gets stuck on the "android" screen at start up.
When you say "formatting cache, system, boot etc then re-flashing this rom fixed the problem"
In the clockword recovery mod do I choose "wipe cache partition" the reboot ?

A step by step instruction would be great  

Thanks

From the instructions in the first post.

INSTALLATION:
- Copy zip of the desired ROM flavour to SD-card.
- Boot into recovery (volume down + power on)
**BEFORE FLASHING, MAKE A NANDBACKUP FIRST!!**
- Wipe data/cache unless you are reinstalling
- Install zip from sdcard

If you don't wipe you get stuck on the green android - I did this as well.

Thanks for that Scooby - I've just tried again but I'm still stuck on the "android" start up (past the green robot)
I know i should of backed up but i never ! - I've now only got the options on the recovery menu (power on/vol down buttons)

I've just tried  - Wipe data/cache then install zip from sd card

But still stuck

OK - I've got somewhere, I tried "wipe cache" and "wipe data"  then tried to reinstall but I was still stuck on the "android" start screen.
I remove the SD card, downloaded the Finnish ROM and copied it over to the SD card, wiped the above 2 again and chose to install the Finnish ROM and it's worked !
I'd prefer the BladeVillain ROM though.

Is this the right process to install it -

Got it all installed and working

I tried this on my TFT SF and get the following error:

.......
Formatting BOOT
E:Board does not support mtd utils.E.Failure at Line 63:
write_raw_image PACKAGE:boot.img BOOT:
Installation Aborted..

I read this ROM is compatible with the TFT phone, so I guess something else is causing this?

Mines a TFT screen and I've just got it to work, Sorry i can't help you anymore, This is my 1st Smartphone and it's all new to me, I've spent all day unlocking and installing the custom ROM.

I get a similar error when using a different Rom, so I guess its not rom specific, however a solution or some guidance as to what is wrong would be useful.. I would love to get rid of the Orange labelling.

Please use the search!  Use ClockworkMod 2.5.0.9, not the latest one.

Just a quick question about this ROM, under the APN settings I have Virgin UK and Virgin UK MMS already present (not on this network) but don't seem to be able to "discard" them... anyway of removing them easily without getting too technical?

Apart from the above this ROM is great...

Apart from the above this ROM is great... and working fine on TFT screen with 2.5.0.9 version of clockworkmod.

Hi..how would I enable A2SD+ for this ROM, please?

Thanks mate, 2.5.0.9 worked a treat.. No more Orange labelling.

There's an app on the market called APN backup - this allows you to delete APN's then you can setup a new one.
I had to do this last night when setting up mine on Vodafone - works a treat now.

just installed this rom and getting some strange issues.  Getting some series lag issues, and the touch screen has gone from being nice on the stock to just rubbish since putting this rom on.  I'm going to change the density of this to see if that helps, but i'll do that tomorrow now.

Anyone else had these issues?

[Freekers]

Sorry for my absence the past few days. I was a bit busy !
Some good news: The developer of PictureFolder has released a new version which should solve the FC issues of PictureFolder after flashing the ROM ! I will release a new version of the ROM this evening , with some other small adjustments.

Doesn't sound familair to me...?

[Freekers]

Updated to RLS4

- Updated PictureFolder to latest version which shouldn't FC after ROM flash. (Dev. told me he fixed it...)
- Removed QcNvTest.apk and ChiperTest.apk. Neither are standard Android apps and don't appear to add anything useful. (Thanks Ash_P!)

Used by the ZTE engineer's tests: Secret Dialler Codes.

Why does it ask me for "SIM Network unclock PIN"?

Because your phoned isn't unlocked?  This ROM is (I think) locked to a different network than your original service provider (Orange?), so if your phone is not unlocked and you have your other [Orange?] SIM in then it will complain.  Unlocking is free, easy and legal (in the UK at least).
