Guest Daz555 Posted February 10, 2010 Report Share Posted February 10, 2010 (edited) Ok, i tested... when i install the customrom the phone depends at the android writing. :D when i install superboot the touch have no function. the keys have function... :( Thank goodness the nandroid-backup is working! Any ideas to get a customrom working on my device? is it possible to make a u8230 custom rom with root access without adapting the pulse settings? Sorry for my bad english ;) Did you do a full wipe before replacing the stock ROM with the custom MCR ROM? A full wipe can be done from the Recovery menu. Backup first of course.

Guest pmw1971 Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 Apologies as this has been raised before but the solution hasnt worked for me. I've installed the 1.7 vanilla and had to factory reset to clear some android forced closed errors, this worked fine and all my applications have not installed ok again and I'm back up and running Yipeeee... However..... the beautiful widget I've loaded shows the date in french and my calender is in french also... saw the suggestion on here to change the locale and it should work... went into the settings...locale and text....select locale.... and all that is displayed is English/French, so selected English, rebooted and its still a french calender... Any suggestions please? PmW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Smokeoil Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 Silly question, but how do I add the wavesecure option if I've already installed the 1.7 rom and set my phone up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either download the zip file from the OP and install it from Recovery (like you do when installing a ROM) OR just install from the market Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Tom G Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 I'm fairly new to Android, so sorry if i've missed something simple (or if these problems have already been addressed, i've read a few pages but 42 pages is too much to read through). I finally received my Pulse about a week ago (postage from the UK took a month), so over the past few days i've started playing with the U8230 1.7 rom. It installed fine, I did a wipe after the install because of force closes. I formatted the SD card from the recovery image when I installed the custom rom. After installing the rom the phone no longer recognises the SD card. The option to mount the card is disabled, it doesn't read through usb and all app installs fail (because of apps2sd?). Both partitions mount fine with the card in a pc, and fsck doesn't report any errors. Inserting the card into the phone while it is running causes it to crash/freeze. Is there any way to get log/debug info out of the phone? I'm also having problems with usb since installing the rom. Most of the time on my laptop and pc the phone isn't recognised, 'lsusb' and 'adb devices' don't find it. Both machines are running Arch linux, the laptop is on kernel 2.6.33-rc7 and the pc is on 2.6.32. My PC at work running xp detects it fine (no adb at work). When the phone is recognised in linux half the time 'adb shell' gives a permissions error (phone not rooted?). Has any one experienced similar problems and know a fix?

I found apps2sd picky about partitions (didn't recognize them if created in linux for example)...what size is your ext partition? and what version? ext2? also 0 swap right?

I found apps2sd picky about partitions (didn't recognize them if created in linux for example)...what size is your ext partition? and what version? ext2? also 0 swap right? I was wrong, the card is recognised by the phone but there is no indication of it from the phone interface. I can see it in the shell. I did include a small swap partition but didn't realise it would automatically use it if it was there. I see in /proc/meminfo that it does have swap space. I will reformat it without the swap space and see it that fixes it. The ext partition is ext3, mount shows that it is mounted, but i'm not sure the mount points are correct, where should it be mounted? The fat partition is not mounted, where should it be mounted? /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 on /system/sd type ext3 (rw,noatime,nodiratime,errors=continue,data=ordered) /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 on /data/dalvik-cache type ext3 (rw,noatime,nodiratime,errors=continue,data=ordered) Strangely although mount shows the same device mounted at 2 points ls shows different contents for those points. The ext partition should have been 500MB I think, but df -h shows it as 457MB. So I guess mmcblk0p1 should be the ext partiiton and mmcblk0p2 should be fat?

Guest Glycerin Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 Now i have the stockrom as a updata.app. Now i unpacked these with the perl script... To get root access in what img-file is it deposited? How can i compare this now with the customrom! Any how can i open these img-files? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ZsZso Posted February 13, 2010 Report Share Posted February 13, 2010 (edited) Hi! I got some really weird problem with my Pulse. This was my first attempt to change the Stock ROM and after a few tries I've managed to install this Custom ROM on my device. I wiped my phone, there's an ext3 partition on my SD (created with recovery). I can install applications, and they do work fine, except one little thing: some of them lost all of there settings after closing and reopening. It's really annoying. (just an example: I need to set the ignore list every time I load my task killer app [EStrongs Task Manager]) They worked on the stock ROM. Could you help me with this issue? EDIT: STRANGE... I've reinstalled these applications and everythings seems fine. :D Ok, I got another problem. Every time ROOT access is requested my phone hangs on "SU REQUEST" window. I have no choice but to force close it. Does anybody experienced this? Is there a solution for this? (I have tried this function after wipe, and it worked). EDIT: LOL. I've found a solution for this problem too : Settings >Applications - Turn on Debug mode. Anyway, I left this post where it is, maybe somebody would be happy for it :D Edited February 13, 2010 by ZsZso Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any how can i open these img-files? Any ideas... When i can open these img with a editor or any other i can compare it with my stock and so i can make a superboot for my rom or not? Or the MCR works on my device (touch doesnt work) Or is it better to wait... i don't think so :D :D :lol: It's going on i this Thread Edited February 17, 2010 by Glycerin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest michlaustn Posted February 17, 2010 Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 I just wanted to say thank you for the ROM. I installed it last night and it was very straight forward. The only mistake I made was that I did not wipe the phone prior to installing this ROM. I knew I had to do it whilst I was downloading the ROM, but when the time came to actually do it I had forgotten haha. Anyway, it runs very nicely now. It seems much snappier and I can play 3D games :D Once again thank you. Once I am paid from my job I believe I will donate so that I can take advantage of the Kitchen system.
