Guest magneticflip Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 I think I've being a bit dim - does applying this prevent you from installing any other custom ROM's like the U8230 one etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Paul Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 Currently, yes... P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Paul Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 Right, so it's the MoDaCo Custom Kernel that breaks with the December update. I'm not sure i'm willing to give up compcache, EXT3/4 etc. etc.! ;) P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Jakdaw Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 ... update from me... boot.img didn't help, just like Paul predicted, but applying the T-Mobile December update again did get it booting again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jakdaw Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 So, interestingly when I now boot the recovery image on the now-returned-to-T-Mobile-December-stock Pulse, it still can't perform a Nandroid backup: / # nandroid-mobile.sh -b nandroid-mobile v2.2.1 Using G1 keyboard, enter a prefix substring and then or just to accept default: Using - prefix to create a backup folder mounting system and data read-only, sdcard read-write checking free space on sdcard Dumping boot to /sdcard/nandroid/mem=128M/BCDMRS-20091217-1057/boot.img...done mtd: ECC errors (0 soft, 1 hard) at 0x00260000 error reading recovery: No such file or directory Dumping recovery to /sdcard/nandroid/mem=128M/BCDMRS-20091217-1057/recovery.img. ..mtd: ECC errors (0 soft, 1 hard) at 0x00260000 error reading recovery: No space left on device md5sum: can't open '/sdcard/nandroid/mem=128M/BCDMRS-20091217-1057/recovery.img' : No such file or directory mtd: ECC errors (0 soft, 1 hard) at 0x00260000 error reading recovery: No space left on device md5sum: can't open '/sdcard/nandroid/mem=128M/BCDMRS-20091217-1057/recovery.img' : No such file or directory mtd: ECC errors (0 soft, 1 hard) at 0x00260000 error reading recovery: No space left on device md5sum: can't open '/sdcard/nandroid/mem=128M/BCDMRS-20091217-1057/recovery.img' : No such file or directory mtd: ECC errors (0 soft, 1 hard) at 0x00260000 error reading recovery: No space left on device md5sum: can't open '/sdcard/nandroid/mem=128M/BCDMRS-20091217-1057/recovery.img' : No such file or directory mtd: ECC errors (0 soft, 1 hard) at 0x00260000 error reading recovery: No space left on device md5sum: can't open '/sdcard/nandroid/mem=128M/BCDMRS-20091217-1057/recovery.img': No such file or directory Fatal error while trying to dump recovery, aborting.

Guest meinnit Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 Does this mean that we can apply December update and still be able to apply other ROMs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest -Yaya- Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 Before I apply the update... Does this really improve the sound quality and does it fix the noisy speaker bug? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mackiem Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 (edited) Yes, but you'll lose the ability to use custom kernels. P Thanks Paul got my phone to boot by reapplying the update. Crap so I'm stuck without custom kernels. Was able to install the updated roms that you made compatible with the december update. So is your handset post-december or pre-december? Edited December 17, 2009 by mackiem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Spook Tooth Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 Sound is improved, both in volume output and quality. This goes for multimedia playback and importantly, call quality. The speaker is no longer noisy, it's not great when compared to my Nokia N95 but it does the job. The headphones bug remains - ie, if you're watching a video and decide to plug your own headphones in (with 2.5mm adapter), the sodding music player still tries to start up resulting in the video picture freezing whilst audio continues.

Guest _melchett Posted December 18, 2009 Report Share Posted December 18, 2009 sorry to ask yet another noob question, but does this permanently block the ability to update the kernal, or is it only currently block until the geniuses in this forum sort out a fix? As i understand it 2.0 uses a different kernal (does 1.6?) so by updating to Dec 09 will it block the ability to upgrade to these (once these are also eventually crafted)? TMobile / Hauwai should surely still be able to update the kernal in the future? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Paul Posted December 18, 2009 Report Share Posted December 18, 2009 You can update the kernel, it's just our custom one causes reboots for some reason! ;) P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jmmL Posted December 18, 2009 Report Share Posted December 18, 2009 You can update the kernel, it's just our custom one causes reboots for some reason! ;) P I remember seeing that a while ago someone claimed they had found an error in libandroid_runtime.so which caused the phone to reboot unexpectedly. I can't find the post that said that, but here's one by the same guy that just mentions the error, but doesn't give any symptoms or evidence: http://groups.google.com/group/android-dev...d70ac935e6b16c6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest lemmyc Posted December 18, 2009 Report Share Posted December 18, 2009 I notice that with this update you don't need to be holding the phone in your hand for the touch screen to work.
