Guest Absolon Posted June 19, 2010 Report Posted June 19, 2010 I've rooted my phone with the r6-way (THANX!) When I apply a rom from the Kitchen I get a strange error. The phone starts with the HTC-logo and that it's "brilliant" and just restarts there all over and over. Any ideas? /Abs ;)
Guest kubia Posted June 19, 2010 Report Posted June 19, 2010 (edited) i think your phone is usb-bricked. try this: http://android.modaco.com/content/htc-desi...d-b0rked-fixed/ edit: scratch that, i'm not so sure about that anymore.... wait for someone more experienced to answer.

Guest Absolon Posted June 20, 2010 Report Posted June 20, 2010 I don't think it's bricked. The root-update (r6) works just fine. It's when I apply a "kitchen made"-rom that I get the error. I wiped everything but still it just reboots and reboots. I'm happy at least that I don't have to hear that pesky sound but it still won't boot. Have bootloader 0.75. Any ideas please? ;)

Any ideas please? ;) get the worldclock recovery, then make a full wipe, try the modaco r3.1 rom without JIT!!! if thats not working post a comment below.
Guest romvahav Posted June 20, 2010 Report Posted June 20, 2010 Before you flash the rom do wipe to the phone, after flashing the rom make partitions to the SD card. this will fix your problem.

(Including any EXT partitions you may have created)

Any ideas? /Abs ;) This sounds like the previous common problem with A2SD - check by removing your SD card, if the phone boots then you need to format the EXT partition on your SD card (easiest through gparted on a linux distro or live cd). If you have your FAT32 partition backed up and don't mind wiping the whole SD card then run the partition tool from the recovery menu. Hopefully you have backed up your apps/settings with titanium? If so ensure that the directory is copied from the SD card before wiping :( You'll need to use a card reader for that, or mount via USB in recovery menu to access the disk. Cheers, Andrew.

Cheers, Andrew. nearest i can tell is it is an sd ext issue , some roms work better n 3 some 4 and others like te older ones work better on 2. its a real pain in the ass. i wish there was a sticky about formating sd ext for te different app2sd's app2sd app2sd+ and app2sd++ .... you get the wrong ext and rom and you get boot loop. even though you root with r6 itsgood to keep r5 close by to set the ext on the sd cards though the older recovery
Guest Absolon Posted June 21, 2010 Report Posted June 21, 2010 Hi and thanx for all the answers! Does it matter how I partition the sd-card with the sizes? I have a 16 gig one so I did a 2 gb ext3 a 512 swap and rest FAT32 because what I understad the progs are on the ext3 partition, right? The whipe, should that be done with the 2 options that are in the recovery-mode? Cheers, Paul
Guest squrl Posted June 21, 2010 Report Posted June 21, 2010 Swap is useless, you can leave it on 0 and 512MB for EXT is just fine ;)
