Guest Winston69 Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 Hi all I'm about to go from 2.8 to 3.0 and am thinking I may as well go and partion my Sdcard at the same time I'm only using the 2Gb card that came with the phone, so is it still worth it? And also is it true that I won't need a SWAP partition on the card with this ROM? Also not sure on what sizes the partitions should be on a 2Gb card, found them in the guide for a 8Gb but not to sure what will be better on a smaller one, any tips would be great# Thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still like to know about if the SWAP partition is needed though? I have a new problem now though I partitioned the SDcard and did a full factory wipe/reset, installed MCR3.0 and the newer radio, rewiped, rebooted etc but now my menu still shows all the previously installed Applications with bad icons as i presume they are no longer there? I thought by doing a full wipe/reset all knowledge of the previous apps would be removed? i want to go to a fresh start with a partioned Sdcard running MCR3.0 but my phone seems to want to remember what was previously on there? Hope that makes sense and how I can rectify it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope that makes sense and how I can rectify it? What recovery image are you using if using Amon Ra 1.2.3 or 1.3.2 Your best bet would be, if you are going to wipe and start afresh, Wipe all including cache etc. I also used Amon RA to create the partitions FAT32 and ext 4 (for ext 4 you wll need to create ext 2 initially, before converting first to ext 3 then ext 4. Creating these partitions should wipe all data on the Micro Card allowing a fresh install. Previously I have only Wiped if having problems on the current ROM, otherwise it should be safe to just update P.S You DO NOT need a Swap partition Edited December 5, 2009 by masterpfa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ptruman Posted December 5, 2009 Report Share Posted December 5, 2009 (edited) It appears the download links are borked - returns me to www.modaco.com all the time... :D Edited December 5, 2009 by ptruman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest stibba Posted December 5, 2009 Report Share Posted December 5, 2009 <br />It appears the download links are borked - returns me to android.modaco.com all the time... <img src="http://www.modaco.com/style_emoticons/default/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="sad.gif" /><br /><br /><br /><br /> Yes. I agree.. I think the link is broken or i don't know what happens. However, even if I can't download from my PC, I am able to download the image directly from the hero as suggested in this 3ad few pages above. So, connect to this 3ad with your hero, press on the link until you can select "save link" (or similar) and then manage the img directly from the smartphone. Hope this helps!

Guest ptruman Posted December 5, 2009 Report Share Posted December 5, 2009 (edited) All them what's complaining bout not downloading you need to long press the link and save link option then it downloads full file. Not on a PC it doesn't - and d/l to the phone takes WAY too long.... I've cleared PC cache, I'm using Chrome (or IE 8 as a test, that's broken too) and I can get a download.htm file which just contains the HTML src for Modaco.com.... (randomly it's started working now - maybe DNS issues?) Edited December 5, 2009 by ptruman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest masterpfa Posted December 5, 2009 Report Share Posted December 5, 2009 Great rom, fast and smooth! thank you! Flashed version 3.0 and now HTC sync (2.0.8 installed) isn't working - the device is looking for HTC Sync and eventually can't find it... Also, I now have only 97MB free space... where did 50MB go? :/ Any ideas? Same here have lost the ability to use HTC Sync have tried rolling back to 2.0.4 still the same problem. My phone is picked up and I am able to mount SD card. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest uk786 Posted December 5, 2009 Report Share Posted December 5, 2009 'sync issues' --- make sure you haven't killed the task, try restarting the device and try then.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest PNoire Posted December 5, 2009 Report Share Posted December 5, 2009 There is something wrong, im not quiet sure. But i keep getting Force Close a lot !

I have the same issue, possibly a conflict with 'Advanced Task Manager' ? I re-installed the app and it seems to have temporarily fixed the problem.

Guest ptruman Posted December 5, 2009 Report Share Posted December 5, 2009 (edited) Well, I'm now on 3.0. Have added enhanced, bootsound & wavesecure packs. Only thing found "wrong" so far is Wireless Tether is force closing. Any clues? Scratch that - I found a solution. I copied the /system/sd/apps/*tether* to /sdcard Ran the .apk installer, which "replaced" the in ROM copy. Uninstalled the application, REINSTALLED it, and now it's running. (everything does appear way quicker too, CoPilot fires up in under 10 seconds!) Edited December 5, 2009 by ptruman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe first do a full wipe and then flash?? About Wavesecure: When I install wavesecure from the marketplace, do I have any advantages from this ROM, or do I have to install the wavesecure from the enhanced package?
