Big Storage Roms - JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading

Hi All,
I know this is probably a stupid question but here goes. If I download one of the BigStorage Roms from the ftp xda magician site and ran the maupgradeut would it automatically give me the bigstorage or would I still need to use the SD card and back up and copy la,la,la. Just curious because as much as I am pretty good with this rom stuff as of late, that whole process is to much for me just to gain a little space. Thanks in advance and I hope that wasnt to dumb to ask.

New Qtek S100 - A few clarifications needed

Hi,
I've just got a new S100 and I've got a few questions. Let me first explain at what state I am now. I got a french s100 shipped. So I updated it to WWE with the exe method and no_ID just to get it into english.
Now I would like to go for the mksbigstorage thing. I've read a lot of post on it but I would like a few clarifications.
1. Can you perform big storage through exe method or only by flashing from sd card?
2. Will I have a problem with flashing because my qtek was originally french?
3. What is the difference between exe method and flashing? Does one method do more than the other?
4. Why do I have to take the first 400 or so bytes from my own rom? Does this have to be the original french one (didn't back that one up) or can I take the one that on it now?
5. If I get stuck anywhere and my device goes dead. Is it then still always possible to upgrade the rom through the exe method to get it back to original? Or could this give problems with storage and ext_rom?
6. Is there a way to make your own rom? Are there tools for prepping files for the exe method?
7. Can someone explain me the memory devision of the qtek? I know 64 mb rom and 64 mb ram. But what get installed where? Is the ext_rom and storage in rom or ram? If you see on the memory screen storage and programs is this all ram?
8. I would like to keep as much ram free as possible. If ext_rom and storage are in ram would it be an option to not have ext_rom and have storage on sd card. If so how can one do that?
9. In my ext_rom there is tpenable and tpdisable, are these things used to specify where software gets installed? I've installed a few things and I think that they are eating up my ram.
I know these are a lot of questions but answers to these would help me understand my qtek better and help me to make a decision on what I'm going to do next.
Thanks,
Stekke.

o2 mini (asia)

Hi guys,
i've just downloaded the WWE_O2_1.12.00 and O2Asia_CHT_1.12.920.
I've managed to install and flash my rom to the wwe_02.1.12.00 version.
but the o2asia_cht1.12.920 is runable. nothing happens when i click autorun. wen i do a hard reset, the ext rom is not installed.
Any idea hw can i install e ext rom so tat even after hard reset it will automatically run by itself?
i'm desperate guys... help!!
any guys here can help?
i'm desperate!!
you think this is paradise for getting answer?
the stuff you get, I'm not sure how it looks like, list the contents here and someone may help you.
Anyway, if it is mostly in CABs, you would need to unlock your ext rom and copy everything into it.
hmm...ok thanks..
anyway how do i unlock my ext rom then?
this forum is so huge tat i cant find it
i've been searching up n low ... before i post this question.
and do pardon me.
i'm still very new to o2 mini (htc magician)
Ok, it seems that you can't unlock ext rom for magician. You will have to flash it. I won't recommend you to doing that though, until you are very confident of yourself.
Anyway, for the stuff you want, just have everything copied into your phone/SD card, and run all the CABs there, it will install everything for you. Perform a backup using SBP Backup to get an EXE file that you can use everytime you perform a hard reset.
Again, Magician ext rom can only be written by flashing it. Read the forum, I might be wrong.
thanks guys..
anyway i've given up on writing the ext rom..
btw.. i've jus flash my rom with e asia cht 1.12
after flashing it ..i realise tat my storage folder is missing.
any help?

ROM's, Tools, or ROM's AND Tools, Should I?

Hey guys, I was curious about something. I'm not sure if many people use my ROMs, so I wanted to find out who does. Who thinks I should ONLY focus on things like kitchens and porting tools and stuff, etc.
Should I work on a second set of ROM's, instead of a Just2Clean, a JustStuffed or something. Something with lots of features and programs, setup the way I would set it up.
Or work on Just2Clean simply so that I can use it on my kitchens?
Judging from the past quality of your roms, i highly condone and encourage you to create a "JustStuffed" rom. The only person any rom is perfect for is it's creator, and people should realize that.
Keep working on Just2Clean and the new kitchen, though. By the way, is there a way to use Just2Clean with EBO? I can't figure out how to decompile it.
Your ROM's are great, but...I...I just got used to the feeling I'm running my own ROM. As fzzyrn said, a ROM is always best for its creator. Now I'm running a ROM created in your first kitchan and it is fine. Thanks for all your work whatewer you do
I've voted for these two.
Work on both ROMs and Tools? They all ROCK! I'm using your ROM right now and it's fast and stable!
If you made the JustStuffed, I'd use it. I like the stability and speed, but it's too stripped.
But do what you love to do and don't follow other people's suggestions.
Do what you want to do. That's the only thing i can say.

I'll have to remember to upload the raw kitchen files tonight. I haven't test it with every package, though, so you will probably have to solve a lot of multiple file errors.
Everyone else, thanks for the comments. Ok, I will release a Just2Stuffed!
Just tools. Start with a multiple scheduler calendar!
i am a very satisfied user of your superclean rom. thanks for you great work!
The ROM looks great, I just can't get any help with formatting the micro SD card and being able to run it...
But keep doing both!

b. mann, when you format the SD card are you formatting it to FAT32 and not just FAT?
Do a full format, *not* quick.
Then copy the "HERAIMG.nbh" file to the blank SD card. Follow instructions on first post
I did this with a 1gig SD, no partitions and had no trouble. Try it and see if that helps.
ivanmmj, Just2Clean was the first ROM I've used of yours. Works great. Like being able to customize my phone just how I want it.
Might just have to play in the kitchen just because. It's like you just gave me the best recipe book in the world!
Do what you want; because it's quality!
One of these days when I have the time to flash and customize your rom will be on my phone lol, ive heard many good things and I really want a clean rom so I can make it more personal just need more time man lol!!!

Mine is a 4gig, but i think i messed one up when I formated and partitioned, now it only recognizes one of my partitions...
But I did follow those instructions to a T
I had problems with my 4 gig going straight to the bootloader.
I didn't want to mess with the partitioning, so I used a 1 gig I had lying around. Sorry, can't help with that issue.
Did you try to fill up the SD with a dummy file until there is less that 1 gig free?

No, when I put into bootloader, no matter how I have it partitoned, it won't recognize my card....
Guess I'll get a 1 gig, they're 9 bucks on ecost

Sorry, I'm out of ideas, I guess that's what happens when you take the easy route.
i think i should mention that you can flash from SD even if there are other files on the card- it doesn't have to be empty except for heraimg.nbh

Affirmative, my card is full of crap and it works just fine.

Need help with some sounds.

Hey there all I just need some help I have some sounds that are from the hero and magic official roms that I have collected from these forums. instead of running off SDcard I want them on the phones memory since I have a MT3g I have plenty of mem and don't run BIG apps.
What I have been doing is running ADB and pushing files from my hard drive to the phones memory in /system/media/audio/ directory. I have to do this every time I re flash a rom. I would like to make this easy by flashing it from zip or in an APK if possible... Do you guys think this would be possible?
First of all, wrong forum. Please post questions like this in the General forum.
Secondly, you can create a folder on your SD card called 'media' and store your files there in the same structure as you'd put them on your ROM system area.
It'll still find them there.
OOps sorry I will post over there. I thought since it had to do with flashing or building an APK it would be fine here.
I have run if from my Class 6 SD like that but I still get a delay for notifications. So as I said I dont want to run from SD.
But thanks..

QTeknology hero rom help!!!

This is the best hero rom i have used and the fastest!!! but i am having issues with the gps sometimes it doesnt work...and i keep getting the htc boot up screen when exiting out of apps frequently..is it because i dont have a class 6 sd card? i am using a class 2 sdcard
Not sure about gps, but for loading screens increase the amount of swap you have. Qtek says you only need 32mb swap for his roms so im guessing you dont have swap. Read up on how to get swap.
Also dont start a new thread for this, post on the particular thread your rom was posted on.
Thank you for the help!! ill look it up in the forums..and i gotcha thanks for the advice
