Hello,

i have been using this rom and i am loving it. I am using one from the earlies r4 refreshes.

I have wondering if some one could give me instructions on how to upgrade from an earlier refresh to the latest refresh (r5).

Installation

To install this ROM:

Ensure you have are able to launch the custom recovery image (see 'requirements' above)

Download the zip file of your choice from the links below (or the online kitchen) and copy to your SD card

Restart your device in recovery mode

PERFORM A NANDROID BACKUP FROM THE MENU

Select the option to apply an update zip, and select the zip file you copied to your memory card

Upgrading

No wipe is explicitly required in order to use this ROM, however if you do encounter issues of any kind, it is recommended that you wipe your device and reproduce the issue before raising it here.

Any chance of Chinese support (HTC CIME) for the kitchen?

Try to search it in setting. No extra cime apk in this build. Handwriting is already included.

Setting ->language and keyboard -> touch input -> international keyboard

After that press the 'En' in left bottom corner, u can change to cime

Was happy with r4, cause handwriting is missing in r5

And also default Chinese is also missing in locale on r5, need to install more locale instead

Updated from r4 to r5 - no wipe

Runs smooth, battery seem better then MCR3.1 and dare to say that 3G is faster or get better reception..

Bugs I came across:

Apps from market doesn't install or even update

And since I removed the HTC lock screen, I had no way to switch off the Alarm. Had to PowerOff the mobile

Have I just woken up in bazaro world? Either I've missed something entirely or Froyo doesn't support HTML email!? Seriously I can't get HTML email to work however if I re-burn Modaco's R3.1 back to 2.1 (or whatever) it works!

Go enjoy your breakfast, so you can give us shiny new updates for the rest of the day!

I believe the messaging app graphical glitches haven't been fixed yet? (I'm still using a really good R4 release)

One thing i find helps no end is to use 'Fix Permissions' in ROM Manager . It seems to fix all my force close issues. r5 is now smooth as silk for me

Broken USB is caused by removing the HTC Sync option. had this problem in R4. open "Connect to PC" option in Settings Force Closes. I had to install HTC Sync option in R4. Sadly Paul had to remove the option from the kitchen. (njot sure if it is in R5 by default now)

Paul keep up the good work!

I flashed this twice last night and even re-backed but A2sd+ was not loading on both occasions all apps were missing that were on the partition. When I flashed back to the R4 from the day before everything came back to life working OK except one problem. Now when I boot up I get a message saying Gmail was not working correctly and needed to force close, I get this every time I run it.

Is there any way I can install Gmail app again without flashing the whole lot, I obviously need it working to get my mail?

thanks

It's included by default.

Just plugged in my R5 device and I DO get the 'connection options' popup. For those having issues, do you have 'Ask Me' selected in Settings -> Connect to PC?

You could try going into settings -> Applications and clearing data for the Gmail / Gaccount related options?
