Penguissimo posted:If your phone is stuck on the bootloader screen, you can use RSD Lite to flash an .sbf, but you'll pretty much end up back at stock and have to re-root and everything again. That's fine, as long as I can get the phone to work. I'll take a phone that can receive calls at this point.

Kreeblah posted:It looks like the WiMAX changes have been merged into the CM7 tree, so they should be available in tonight's build. Awesome. I'm still running the RC1, and it seems to have gotten much more stable after doing the ClockworkMod "Permissions Reset". Let us know how tonights nightly runs...I know I've heard too many horror stories about how unstable the WiMax builds are to run it right now.

I'm still getting this crap with the android sys file running at 100% every 24 hours or so and the phone feels a lot more laggy than stock. I've re installed oxygen and it still does this. Thinking about it this was prob what caused leedroid to lag out as well. So whatever it is its persistent across diff roms. Any chance it could be a corrupt sd card? I think I'm going to re install stock, what's the best way to do this, should I just try and recover from the backup I made or get the stock rom off xda?

Any chance it could be a corrupt sd card? What Android sys file are you talking about? And yes, a bad SD card could slow poo poo down if you're using SWAP or A2SD, which I believe you are. You're a Desire, right? or OG Droid? If you're going to use A2SD, go out and drop the $50 on a brand new class 6 microSD from a reputable company - Kingston, Sandisk, Crucial, something like that. Order it online, don't just go to Best Buy and buy one they have in stock. On top of that, try installing Watchdog off the market. It's a psuedo-task killer, but it's not a lovely one. It doesn't auto kill tasks, it runs a service that watches CPU usage and if anything's going out of control, it alerts you so you can kill it. I rarely use it, but it's saved my battery a few times when Angry Birds decided to take up 80% CPU in the background because it's coded poorly.

Happy to see Wimax on the latest nightly. (Still has that odd submenu which has no purpose) Anyone have more information on the HDMI cloning capabilities from #teamwin?

Just wanted to report that the Warm Z ROM for the EVO might be the fastest ROM I used yet. Sense 2.0 is super fast (why doesn't the EVO have Sense 2.0 anyway?) and it is pretty as ever. Bad is no 4G, but I don't have it in my area yet anway. Can not wait to see what the Warm guys come up with for Gingerbread. They are making some of the best Sense ROMs on the market. If you do try it do a full wipe. I did a partial and had several issues, but after a full it worked perfect.

Confirming that CM7 nightly 6 has WiMax and it works great. Also, if you are having problems with WiMax turning it self of shortly after you turn it on, try uninstalling SwitchPro widget. Cyanogenmod has Notification power widget built in and you can add a 4G button on it by going to: Settings->CyanogenMod Settings->Inteface->Notifaction power widgets-> widget buttons Now you can toggle 4G on and off in any App by bringing down your notification draw and pressing the button.

Lowen SoDium posted:Confirming that CM7 nightly 6 has WiMax and it works great. I haven't had a problem with SwitchPro, but I have had an issue with turning off WiMAX data, which seems to kill all my other data connections, including wifi. They look like they're connected, but they can't transfer anything.

Figured I'd chime in and post that installing CM7 RC1 on my HTC Inspire 4G gave me insane battery life compared to stock. Previously I'd go to sleep and wake up and my battery would be at around 50%. Now I can dick around with the phone all day and not bother to charge it and the next day I'm still at 80%. Rooting was definitely worth it.

I'm going to try the one that came with it but that's also 4c. It also won't boot fully sometimes it just says system process force close and then crashes. I think I'm going to have to go back to stock and no a2sd but at least I can backup my less used apps and un install them I suppose

Dijkstra posted:You need to also wipe system... What I've been doing is going into clockwork recovery from boot and under the main menu there wipe data followed by wipe cache, then under advanced I've been wiping dalvik. Are you saying I should select format system under the mounts and storage sub menu? Should I also format data and cache from the mounts and storage menu too? If this fixes it, i'll owe you big time, this has been pissing me off for so long now.

Also, if you're using A2SD, you need to be wiping SD-EXT.

Ok good stuff, but thinking about it this probably wont make a blind bit of difference since I recreated the partition before I changed to oxygen anyway. I'm still going to try it, but I don't hold out much hope. If this fails can I get back to stock by just doing a recovery from the backup I made before I flashed any roms, or is it more complicated than that?

You'd need to restore your recover as well if you want to receive regular OTA updates in the future, or you can keep the custom one and wait for a rooted stock update.zip to come out (usually a few hours after the official OTA).

Is there a way to extract your contacts from a clockworkmod/nandroid backup without reflashing the phone?

I thought that might be the issue at first, but I shut off wifi, deleted the outbound message, and restarted the phone, then tried to send another MMS with wifi off and it still didn't work. It just sits on sending forever.
