In that case, I recommend you to try flash it again! Try clear everything in CWM just in case. So far, no one report wifi error in the ROM. I suspect the files are not totally installed correctly.

so, means that i go to recovery and reflash the rom i dl'ed?umm, can explain how to clear CWM?

if you put that into your external SD, in your CWM, you should chose to install from external sd

Tried ADB too, were you using Android Commander or the ADB from SDK Manager?
I got this when I try using the code.

[attachmentid=2669864]

I installed SDK manager. Then followed the code given for RZrecovery installation. After that, just enter recovery, clear cache and install cows ROM..no problem here. biggrin.gif

and after command SU, it will give a #, then you paste the next command. mine just do this and ok liao. And if u using SDK installer, you did set environmental path?

Same problem. Sometimes last a bit then will hang when open application or just open folder. So i just OC to 1.7Ghz and no problem til now. Wifi n skype on 24h with <1h call + few sms can last me 30 hours.. But 1 thing, somehow my wifi connection is super slow! Keep having error when supposedly i have no problem.. Sometimes okay. SO now I feel annoyed only cuz of this. Other than that, no complains..

Btw, just 1 thing. Where can i get fonts for the phone? I dont wanna change the launcher since i'm happy the way it is. I just need fonts. Thanks in advance.

Nope, all you need to do is wipe cache and dalvik, you can wipe dalvin by selecting "advance" at the CWM menu. As for myself, I clear the user data too =x So far I haven't got any FCs yet from this rom.

QUOTE(game4life @ Feb 8 2012, 03:53 PM)
just do a full wipe. wipe data, cache and dalvik cache
*
So if i wipe data, all files in internal memory deleted rite? If i put the .zip file ther, it wont get deleted? Sorry so many question. Just wanna make sure cuz when i flash, okay but after 2 days all go haywire. Some program suddenly disappear and cant so anything. LOL. I suspect because i didnt clear data, i just clear cache and delvic cache.

Lol, so weird. Everytime i reflash Cow's rom, after 1 day will start having error out of the blue. I wiped data, cache and delvik cache before reflash. Before you ppl say I install too many apps, I only install poweramp, GO sms, battery ETA and advance task killer cuz i like that more than standard task manager. After 1 day or few hours, will start crashing. Example of force close program is endless, zeamlauncher, market, android process. Then sometime cant access camera and also when wanna connect to wifi =, wifi will auto off. HAHA. when this happen, I just reflash cuz I need to contact ppl quite a lot. Dun wanna waste time waiting for fix. But it is troublesome cuz i lose data and have to reinstall some programs...

Anyway, this is NOT a rant. Just honestly telling my problem, hoping for advice/fix. I'm not bashing the rom, just reporting. Thanks in advance.

Some people managed to solve the problem by NOT restoring any app / contact. Install new app. Contact, sync with goolge contact, etc. I don't recommend restoring app (using Titanium or not) because the new ROM swap your internal / external SD. there could be problem. for that matter, if you start getting crash and all, best you format / clear both your internal / external sd card before flashing.

in short, if you follow everything documented here, but still has FC, you still have 2 options:

1) Provide me the logcat where I can diagnose it:
- connect phone to notebook
- adb logcat > log.txt
- do something on the phone to cause FC
- in notebook Task Manager, kill all adb processes
- PM me the log.txt

2) Restore back to stock ROM. I think this is most stable biggrin.gif
*
Okay, I did not try to restore as when i first tried, titanium restore hangs at 0% but the files appear installed. Now I'm not restoring since i was afraid this causes FC.

For the bolded part, does it mean i delete everything in internal/ sd card? or use wipe data from recovery cuz i tried this only. havent tried wiping whole internal/sd. And if i wipe my memory, after I reformat, i just put your rom into internal sd and flash izzit? And when i reformat my internal memory/sd, i can still go into recovery? or need to install ancora again? Thanks for the help cow^^
