Guest TheBrownBottle Posted August 7, 2010 Report Share Posted August 7, 2010 Sorry guys, The superboot thingy isn't working.. tested it myself but I was already rooted :D I guess what I could do is make a little flashable update zip that flashes a new rooted kernel and copies the superuser to the system drive. I'll try and get it done this evening. I do feel bad for unintentionally making you people my guinea pigs :D Don't feel bad, I just like messing about. It's all good. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest johninho Posted August 7, 2010 Report Share Posted August 7, 2010 Do you have a U8220 or a Pulse phone? Hi, Thanks for replying.

Guest lordmedikit Posted August 7, 2010 Report Share Posted August 7, 2010 Can someone please clarify, compared to stock 1.5 Android, how much space is there on stock 2.1 Android for installing apps? I know you've been talking about space on the new one and it seems to be better than other 2.1 firmwares, but this is the one thing holding me back from upgrading at this point since I have almost filled the space on the 1.5 firmware.

Guest jaybee444 Posted August 7, 2010 Report Share Posted August 7, 2010 How to install 3d gallery, google goggles and voice search on T-mobile 2.1 UK rom? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest stealthstealer Posted August 7, 2010 Report Share Posted August 7, 2010 please help, i dont know how to flash the recovery image on this, do i need the device drivers? cus i cant seem to install them :) (windows xp) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest lordmedikit Posted August 7, 2010 Report Share Posted August 7, 2010 (edited) Update: /system is now 100MB /data is now 90MB Just to add to my last post, I'm guessing data is the one we can install apps on and in 1.5 it seems to be about 107MB so is it 90MB with the new 2.1 stock? Also, how much of this space is left after all the T Mobile cruft and Google apps? I have to stick with stock ROMs because I have had my Pulse fail before with no touchscreen so I don't want to chance a rooted ROM, nice as they are.

Yep data is the location for apps that you install and some caches. 1.5 had about 100 MB usable space on data and the UK 2.1 has about 85 MB usable space. It's better than it used to be with other 2.1 roms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Run the small update on your phone please then install the official UK T-Mobile 2.1 update WITHOUT december update. That should work (well it did for me anyway). And please provide the full and exact error message given when trying to install FLB 1.31. Edited August 8, 2010 by flibblesan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
