No, it is a good resource. What you should do is to get more people to use it, by referring them to it instead of answering the same old questions in the forum over and over again (and that includes my stupid questions too).

Since I started the page, loads of useful stuff that I didn't know has been added.

There are a few of us who added :) A good and detailed howto would be nice. Maybe i'll write it someday.

Thats exactly what is needed because at the moment it is very confusing for me to install the custom vanilla rom. I still dont know wether I have to root the phone after or will it be rooted automatically when installing the rom?

Thx

As i see it (dont take this as cash) it will root it. I want to try the branded MoDaCo mod, but still a bit cloudy how can i back up what i have now. I'll read and get wiser :)

Edit1:

I've made a howto for the MDC T-mobile update. Check it out! Comments welcome.

The statement under 'Rooting' on the Wiki page.

"The current rooting procedure does not work after applying the "December Update" (detailed below).

I would like to know the following,

1. If the above comment is still valid?

2. Is the Wiki page being review & updated?

No that's incorrect, all new custom roms are for phones with the december update and will therefore root them once installed/flashed. If you want to root a phone without installing/flashing a custom rom just look at the superboot sticky by Paul in this forum. :)

This is way too awesome.

Following the U8220 MCR thread is getting really hard. The wiki is just what I need.

Agreed completely; please keep the Wiki. Incidentally, is it up-to-date?

I think so. I updated it recently with a few minor changes. The basic ROM/Recovery flashing processes haven't really changed for a while.

If you do notice something is wrong, please feel free to add/update.

That's not possible until we get the 2.6.29+ kernel source for our device.

Android 2.X requires this kernel at a minimum, and that's why it wouldn't work just to flash the ROM onto our device.

Either we have to wait until this kernel gets released officially - and I guess we would get it with Android 2.1 - or we have to port it ourselves.

Greetings,

I think it would be worth adding the battery type is HB4F1 so people can search for them on ebay. If you search for this you will also find a desktop charger that you can use if the USB port is broken.
