Good morning peeps  biggrin.gif

Just woke up and found out NexTSense7.1 is not released yet. Boring....  whistling.gif
*
haha... morning to you too.. i m waiting for it too. doh.gif

amyway, can't waiy any longer, i reflash 7.0 again and restore the apps one by one, some problem seems to disappear. I found out it is better to restore only user apps+data, else some apps will mysteriously disappear, eg. Market enabler and adb wireless is there when initially flashed but disappear after I did a batch restore with Titanium Backup. I only found out this when I reflash yesterday night, maybe I accidently restore some system setting. blink.gif

@#$%&*... I just reflash 7.0 yesterday and 7.1 comes out today. rclxub.gif apparently 7.0 was an experiment and now many things has been reverted in 7.1. I think no choice I need to flash to 7.1.

anyone using ext4? Nextsense support ext4, I am thinking should I change to ext4, but I heard ext4 less performance than ext3.

another thing - anyone install the wi-fi N option? We need to download additional file but how to update the zip file into the phone? Just update zip from sd card like we do with ROM zip file?

thanks. smile.gif

I have my Wifi N enable in r8 modaco. No chance to try it yet. In fact, I have no idea whether it is running on N or not sleep.gif

I thought wi-fi N supposed to be the main features of Official Froyo just like 720p recording? But maybe some ROM developer put it as optional to save battery life. hmm.gif

Hi guys, above guide is provided by Cynox on how to partition SD card using Amon_Ra.

Im flashing to AuraxTSense7.1 (From NexTSense5.3), and would like to partition my SD card to 1GB on ext3 (Currently SD card is partitioned to Ext3 512MB).

Questions:
1) I have to format my SD card right (In order to re-partition to 1GB on ext3)?
2) Should I flash ROM and Radio 1st, then only format and partition SD card? Or format/partition SD card 1st/
3) In the above guide, after Stage 2 - Step 5, Cynox mentioned in a Note: "If you want to flash rom, you can use the Wipe function to wipe all ext3 partition, cache, etc clean, but the partition remain intact."

Meaning dont need to format SD card, but using the Wipe function in Recovery Mod instead? Can I use this method just to wipe and dont need format SD card (To re-partition ext3 from 512MB to 1GB)?

Advice is much appreciated  notworthy.gif
*
1. yes, definitely if you want to change the size of the partition.
2. Should partition first then only flash rom, so that the rom will straight away recognise the ext3 partition.
3. The wipe only function is only useful when you want to flash rom but the partition size remain, eg. when you want to just upgrade the rom (the data on the card still intact if you did not delete the FAT32 partitions). To change partition size denifitely need to repartitioning, all the partitions and data on the card WILL BE LOST.

@KTCY, you are the sifu lah, can't be wrong. laugh.gif

I have formated by SD card, and my phone cant boot up (Stuck at HTC logo screen) now (Im still on NexTSense5.3). I need to continue with the amon_ra thingy and re-partition of SD card. How now ah??    doh.gif

did you do the Revoked with Amon_RA? You are stuck just after the Unrevoked?

No I havent do the Unrevoked with amon_ra. I just formated my SD card and now it is stuck. I was thinking to do the amon_ra only after I format SD card.
*
if you haven't install Amon_RA, what program you use to partition the card? My mini guide is only applicable when you have installed Amon_RA with Unrevoked.

Boot from Recovery then? My SD card is now emptied.  rclxub.gif

what done is done, I think the partitions you created is all FAT32. You can only partition ext2/3/4 with Amon_ra. So actually no point partition the SD card with the System Settins. Can you just boot up your phone into normal phone mode now? If yes, then connect to your computer, select Hard Disk mode, then copy the new ROM to your SD card. Then disconnect it and do the Unrevoked things with Amon_RA from Step 1.

Probably your SD card is corrupted. Take out the SD, format it using your PC and put in the Zip file.

I also think this is the easiest. Delete all the partitions you created and format into 1 single partition. Then copy the new ROM zip file into it.

Can you guide me how to do this on a pc (How to delete all partitions and format into 1 single partition)? Just wan to make sure I get things done right this time  smile.gif
*
sure no prob, what system your computer is running - winxp or vista or Win7? Do you have a card reader?

if windows 7:
Control Panel >> Administrative Tools >> Computer Management >> Storage - Disk Management >> Right Click on your SD card partition >> Delete Volume (do this to all the partitions you created on the SD card) >> Right click again on unpartition portion of your SD card >> Create volume >> right click again then format - choose FAT32 >> Done.

Don't actually need to be that complicated tongue.gif

Just go to My Computer, find the drive of your SD card, right click, format smile.gif By doing that, it automatically removes everything as i always get back my 8GB after that smile.gif

iirc, this won't delete the partition, the various partition still exist.

I notice every time I do a full apps + system data restore I have some problems with my ROM

I think I would better do a user apps + data restore only (and selectively restore some system items like SMS and user dictionary if possible)
*
yes, definitely. As I mentioned before, do not do a full restore, a lot of problem will occur. Just restore the users apps+data one by one.

Are you inside building? Best if you are out in the open. Even in my car, the GPS takes some time to lock in.

Yup managed to flashed 7.1 yesterday, on 1st boot I got only 128MB (Internal) and 780MB++ on A2SD (I partitioned ext3 to 1024MB). Weird.  hmm.gif

* I flashed ROM 1st then partitioned using Amon_Ra.

Should I try to flash ROM again with full wipe? (I think I will able to get 137MB on internal by partitioning 1st then flash ROM)
*
this is what i did just now:
1. copy new ROM and Radio to SD card.
2. Enter into Recovery.
3. Flash ROM. Do not reboot.
4. Flash Radio. It will require Reboot to continue.
5. So Reboot System Now.
6. The reboot will auto go into Recovery Mode again.
7. Partition SD card with swap,ext2 and FAT32. Upgrade ext2 to ext3.
8. Reboot System Now.
9. Done. It will take a while to boot into phone.

Just for your info, for the preparation, I did a Titanium Full Backup. Dun forget about this. wink.gif

You partitioned using amon_ra method?

Why system will auto go into recovery mode again on Step 6? Normally system will auto boot into ROM if you dont choose to boot into recovery. Correct me if Im wrong.

Thanks again.  smile.gif

i think i am using Amon_RA. But I did not do a Unrevoked process this time. I think did once and it (Amon RA) will be inside your phone forever.

I dun know why but it did went into recovery automatically.

Actually I forget to put in 1 step - the wiping data steps. So it should be:

1. copy new ROM and Radio to SD card.
2. Enter into Recovery.
3. Wipe data/factory reset, Wipe cache, Wipe Dalvik-cache, Wipe SD:ext partition.
4. Flash ROM. Do not reboot.
5. Flash Radio. It will require Reboot to continue.
6. So Reboot System Now.
7. The reboot will auto go into Recovery Mode again.
8. Partition SD card with swap,ext2 and FAT32. Upgrade ext2 to ext3.
9. Reboot System Now.
10. Done. It will take a while to boot into phone.

EDIT: Just ran a few round of Quadrant, the score is 1,423, my highest so far. No overclock is done, just a fresh flashed system. thumbup.gif

Thanks, i reflashed 7.1 and the steps was exactly the same as above, but I manage to get 135MB only on internal memory during 1st boot. On A2SD+, I partitioned ext3 to 1024MB but it shows 774MB only. (Using Quick System Info)
*
my system now is not stable at the moment (AuraxTSense v7.1). When I install some app either from Market, by Astra File Manager or Restore from Titanium Backup, the phone will reboot. doh.gif Anyone else has the same problem.

I think need to reflash one more time. sweat.gif
