I don't know about your hardware and sd card troubles, but information about the rom you installed is in the http://android.modac...01-03-oled-tft/.  It's not one I'm personally using at the moment (not anything against it I might add!!) so your best option would be to search for fixes and related issues there.

Personally, I'm not sure why you were installing ROMs and making changes that technically void your warranty when you are in discussions about exchanging the phone!!

edit: what you should probably do is download this for stock partitions, place in /image, download the stock rom OUK_P729BV1.0.0B08 from the stock ROMs thread place it at the root of your sd and repeat the process detailed this morning.

Thank you, I'm trying.

I understand you are not using the volcano ROM, so you should check the thread on your ROM as AGPS works fine on my volcano 0.3 install.

Yes, it wasn't. I tried installing Volcano again and it worked but it can not connect wireless. I installed your room twice. First time it was connecting the internet but restarting itself ongoing and now it connects wireless but after says "Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server." I'm turning to stock ROM. ı'LL BE WAİTİNG FOR YOUR UPDATES.

- YOU MUST NETWORK UNLOCK YOUR PHONE BEFORE INSTALLING
- This will overwrite your recovery partition with Clockwork Mod (seb's version). If you don't want it, then delete the 'recovery.img' from the image folder.
- I've removed a lot of apps even from Sebastian's quite clean ROM, if you want them, you'll have to re-install. Most notably, gmail and email apps are gone.

This is what the update looks like when you run it:



Thanks to Seb, Paul Tom G, MDCFan and others who provided the base for this ROM and others who helped me learn enough about Android to put this together.

the 0.2 link has been deleted from rapidshare by the user, has anyone got it, as I'd like the recovery.img from it.

Can you do a volcano version with the new kernel?

Isn't that 'just' Seb's Clockwork?

i can do, but you should also be able to install your own new kernal using clockwork mod.

[domdom43]

I have never used clockwork mod.
I just finished a romdump.
I have read that the easiest way to "update" the phone is with your rom because nothing have to be installed.

So if you do a new release of volcano with the new kernel, i will try to flash a custom rom for first time

This project has been put on standby because isambard broke his two sanfrans. The Japanese Jellyfish has a similar ROM with 128MB image. Take care though, this method is still considered risky and not enough tested.

Could you explain to me how to repartition with another rom?

you can remove the .img files and only repartition will be done. someone else has already prepared a pack with the img files removed.
