No USB should work. How d You think I'm using it? Time - airplane on-off or 3g connection on boot.

USB works after a few restarts
Time still wrong, I boot with 3g connection, also did airplane on-off but no luck, may be is just me, may be is because Froyo reports my phone number as Unknown, any way i can always use a workaround.

Thanks Devs!!! better everyday

As far as I remember to restore original partitions, You have to flash MST. But it's rather strange, because my android has rebooted several times with no problems.

Yes, that is what i did, flash a full .mst rom, It restores the partition table. Then i recreate all partitions, should solve the problem, but didn't. Still stucked at Android logo loading.

If you have ubuntu, you could try this
Startup gparted, attach your phone, then gparted (in the menu) --> refresh devices
Now you should see my storage. Remove all partitions and unplug and reboot phone.
Let the phone format your storage if it asks.
Then again plug phone, refresh devices and make your partitions. unplug and reboot phone.

Worked several times wih me.

That is what i've been doing, several times, but does not work.

1) Rewrite partition table, recreate partitions. Partition Tool does not found any error.
2) Then i configure everything, run haret.exe, kernel load and jump to the Android (Loading animation) where it's stucked.
3) Right after reboot, if a plug my phone as usb device, Partition Tool will say that my Fat32 partition is corrupted.

Maybe a custom rom, but a full (.mst) erases every thing. And if the partition table was modified, it will recreate the original partition table.

Thanks anyway. I've flashed a .mst rom about 4 times since yesterday, formating and erasing partitions several times.

I'll stop for a while to give a rest for my "MyStorage"

.......

If You have adb, connect phone to the computer while booting and view logcat (adb logcat) - it should show what prevents android from starting.

have you changed, or added the Startup.txt to MyStorage?

Thanks, i can see the log, but it's too long and i can't copy from Windows Dos.

EDIT: I saw the log at Windows with "adb logcat". Some of the last lines was saying something about "couldn't extract apk /media". Hard to say, i don't remember puff ...

So i was going to load linux, there i could use the "adb logcat" and copy the message. But now i'm stuck at Kernel (Android on omnia 2 loading).

Seems that the partition was corrupted, now it does not jump from kernel to Android. Like i said before, i can format and try again but the problem would still. Tried several times, it's a partitiom problem.

I'll boot at linux, there i can copy the log.

I'll update the message here

From Windows cmd:
adb logcat > filename

or just:
adb logcat|findstr "E/"

Yeah! I try install a new rom several times and the problem still.. I think his can use this nuestoragerecovery or try that stuffs you do with gpart (deleting all MyStorage and creating new one)

I succesfully installed beta3 in sd card (new clean install - 16 gb class4 sd card formatted with partition magic - fat32). When i checked the partitions of the sd card i found out that there is an ext3 (not ext4) of about 1 gb & a swap 122 mb one. Is it normal or i have to try a new installation? It seems to work with some lags. Anyway thanks devs for your work.

If you already created your swap partition you set it in fstab.

Just create it as a .txt file into /system/etc with this info:

/dev/block/mmcblkXpY swap             swap   defaults           0 0

x = your storage (sdcard/mystorage)
y = your partition

Don't panic. I've also lost my Internal Storage this morning (once again) while I was creating the swap partition but finally I could restore everything (I had a backup of the Internal and Cubic partitions... this is not my first time... :lol).

I unplugged the O2 without "safety remove" after resizing partitions and copying new b3 under Ubuntu, and obviously some critical data were corrupted (pocketfs.sys) and WM didn't recognize Internal memory.

1- You don't need nueROM... in fact you can make the things worse if you aren't an expert.

2- All you have to do is "re-create" the partitions using Ubuntu: 1 Extended containing CUBIC->blk1p5 and INTERNAL-> blk1p6  as logical drives,1 Primary with swap-linux-> blk1p3 and finally another primary ext4 with Froyo-> blk1p2 (see attached file)

3- After creating partitions let the Cubic and Internal without ANY file, unmount them and unplug the phone. The internal memory will come back to live ¡

Good luck.

What about installing beta3 manually?
Automatic installer needs +1GB, but when installing manually you can play with the sizes of partitions?

About your problem, can you post the content of your startup.txt?

[rom_omnia2]

At the next beta we should create a thread to discuss only installation  stuff, in the beta thread just discuss solutions and problems about the  release.

yeah i tryed beta 3 but it just shows that loading android screen.


Set kernel zImage
Set ramsize 180*1024*1024
Set mtype 1626
Set ramaddr 0x50000000
Set kernelcrc 1
Set CMDLINE "rootdelay=2 root=/dev/mmcblk1p2 init=/init"
boot

is that loading screen just the pinkscreen recompiled ?


oh wait did u mean manualy installing it onto the card? didn't think of that
