i just tried booting into cmw and it just just boots up as normal, i tried holding the vol button and power and nothing happens

[TangerineTractor]

have you installed cwm as described in the other threads?

then remove your battery, count to ten, and put it back in. hold volume up and keep it pressed. press power until it vibrates then let go, keeping volume up held down.

Try to disable fastboot settings next time then you will not need to pull the battery.

i put nova on but it seems i have got 2 launchers , stock and nova, how do just keep nova over the top but use my old settings

[TangerineTractor]

you'll always have two launchers. just hit the home button and set one as default. the only other alternative is too use something like Rom Toolbox  to delete the unwanted launcher.

how much ram free are you getting, mine after boot say 160free 220used, it that normal?

[TangerineTractor]

with all my apps running I get 270 used 110 free, but it really doesn't matter. unused ram is wasted ram .

so i guess it's normal then , its just some users where saying they get more ram with this rom.

[TangerineTractor]

does the phone run well? I don't get the hang up with ram use. there's no point in having loads of unused ram, better for more of it to be used and the phone running more smoothly. I've noticed on this Rom that more apps seem to stay running so switching is quicker, for example between mail, opera and plume.

seems to be running fine ta. how are finding the rom and battery usage.

[TangerineTractor]

very fast. very stable. in fact, I'm amazed at how fast this is compared to other roms. it is noticeably faster... no issues with battery so far in normal use.

it does seem faster,. on b940 i noticed alot of battery drain when using 3g.

[TangerineTractor]

I'm on Wi-Fi at home and work, and sit the phone in a charger holder in the car, so I won't really see 3g battery usage until the next football match I go to, which is when it gets most use.

how do you move apps to sd card, i could in b940

[yaqh]

just figured it out, you have to set sd card as defult storage then you have the option to move to sd card but i can't remember doing this on old version.

[TangerineTractor]

stock rom's default to internal.
actually I wonder if performance improves its you leave the apps internal? otherwise you just waste 2 gb of internal space...

[yaqh]

i dont want to cram the internal system, i have ordered a 8gb sd card once i get that i will store everything on that insted.
