[ROM] jacHEROski 2.3.3 - OPTIMIZED - NEW EXPERIMENTAL 7/5/09 (CYANOGENIZED) - G1 Android Development

I successfully got Cyanogen's 2.6.29-cm [email protected]) kernel up and running on Hero.
Link http://www.demarcatedmedia.com/rom/jacHEROski_Experimental.zip
This is a very, very experimental build (I rough cut the new boot.img). Please, anyone who volunteers to experiment please have DDMS up and running so you can send me logs.
As you can see from the pictures, I loaded Drizzy's optimized apps and framework because I had never seen the Ophone graphics and wanted to see what they are all about. If drizzy doesn't mind I'll drop the graphics but keep the optimized apps
Preqs:
New SPL
New Radio
Recommended:
FAT32
EXT3
linux-swap (32 MB)
Cyanogen Recovery 1.3 or greater.
Old Features:
linux-swap supprt
optimized rosie
New Features:
Kernel From Cyanogen
optimized widgets courtesy of Drizzy
Ophone Graphics (maybe)
appstosd from Nismo
TO DO / Known Issues
Change default boot config (let's widgets etc on first boot)
IF GOD LOVED ME HE WOULD LET ME FIGURE OUT HOW TO DO FOUR HOMESCREENS
other little surprises
1) wifi won't start
2) gps still a no go
--------------------------------- THE OLD ROM DOWNLOAD LINK AND INFO BELOW ------------------------------
ALL OF THE THANKS GO to JAC, Denkai, coolbho3000 and everyone else who makes this possible.
This is a slightly modified JACHero2.3.3 release.
This ROM is for those who prefer a 3rd linux-swap partition. The modified a2sd.sh will start swap on every boot (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=531988).
THREE PARTITIONS
FAT32
EXT2 OR EXT3
linux-swap
Included in this ROM is the Super Optimized Rosie from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=532822
Next up, 4 Home screens on Rosie for the win! <---- probably should have been more specific, I'm working on this (it's more difficult than I anticipated)
Enjoy your ROMen noodles!
http://demarcatedmedia.com/rom/jacHEROski2.zip <----- slightly smaller Rosie, still working on fewer Home Screens
The file should be roughly 79.43MB - I used MEGAUPLOAD so who knows.
Please Note: This is my FIRST ROM, so use at your own risk. It does, however, work flawlessly on mine.
As always, I would recommend freshly formatting you sd card (at least the ext3 and linux-swap partitions) and wiping data before applying.

Awesome! Been looking for something like this. Gratz on your first ROM and props to everyone who made this possible. Downloading right now

could you plzzz upload to other site coz megaupload is not available in my area...

Question. If I am using a ext2, do I still need to do the 3rd? If so, how do I do that? Can I use partition manager?

would be cool if we could choose how many home screens it had.

Yea, I don't know I haven't tested it on two partitions. This ROM is mainly for those who have three partitions set up on their SD card.
FAT32
EXT3 or EXT2
linux-swap
The best part is you don't have to worry about your SD card getting corrupted when you mount.
You can use whatever to partition your SD card so long as it partitions it!

the linux-swap partition should be 32MB
swappiness is set at 20
you can edit the "echo 20 >" command in the a2sd.sh to change the swappiness.

i have a my sdcard setup with Fat32 first Ext3 second and Linux Swap last with 31mb.
not sure what i did wrong. i used Paragon to setup my sdcard if that helps

will this work if you only have a ext 2 or will it boot loop?

unpack the udpate.zip on your computer and go to /system/bin/a2sd.sh and post the contents here so I can see what it says.

**********PLEASE READ BEFORE INSTALLING*********
Please use Cyanogen's recovery image!
Make sure you have a partitioned SD card with a FAT32 partition and a EXT3 partition. (EXT2 is supported also) If you do not this ROM will install but you will have little space left due to APPS2SD not running. I personally like the clean slate location for Hero and then i use the widgets i need if any.
When I install I check the ext filesystems first, if it tells you to go to console to manually check do it! After I've repaired the EXT partition or if it didn't need repair I will now wipe and then apply the update and reboot.
A walkthrough by forum member sxfx is posted one post below for install.
ALSO run as few widgets as possible folks!

Ok Guys.
I created this thread cause in the JACHero thread on at least every page everyone asks how to install it, what am I doing wrong, and why is it broken.
So let me give you step by steps of what exactly I have done for me and others to run Hero with out a problem. I will also create a thread with step by step on how to use Ubuntu Linux Live distro to partition your card.
Things you will need to make this work.
Your Brain
G1 Phone
SD Card reader
And the files I included in this thread.
My phone right now is running.
JACHero 2.3
NEW SPL
cyanogens recovery 1.2
8gb class 6sd with Swapper(Swap file on ext2 sd)
setCPU slightly overclock.
Results.
Ever since I did my new Buttons, and the SPL I included in this write up, I have not had one problem flashing any hero rom at all on my phone, nor did I ever have problem actually running hero roms.
So here goes.
First before you partition your card or do anything make sure your card is at least portioned to fat32, don't worry about any other partitions yet.
OK once you do that go ahead and take the radio zip file I am including in this thread and flash it on your phone.
But first make sure you don't already have new radio installed which is 2.22.19.26I THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT. To check what radio you have, power off your phone, and power it on while holding the camera button.
If you do have new radio you can continue on to flashing the new SPL.
Flashing your SPL. (PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE NEW BUTTONS INSTALLED)
Ok this is where it might get a little tricky, and you might require a SD card reader I know I did and frankly I think this is the best way to do it and I recommend every time you do put a new update on your sd card to update your phone do it through a card reader.
Now after you flash your SPL you might or I should say more then likely will get stuck at the T-Mobile G1 screen, this also might happen after new radio flash in the previous step. If this is the case do not freak out it's normal and your phone is not bricked, but this is why having a sd card reader is important.
Ok so Here is what you do after you have flashed new Radio and SPL(Note:The steps on running Linux live distro and using it to partition your card is coming up). Boot up Live distro of Ubuntu, when its done booting, go ahead and go into the partitioning program while your sd card is hooked up in the computer.
Go ahead and set up two partitions at this time. One EXT3, and of course the other one Fat32. Your ext3 partition doesn't have to be all that big. I actually have mine set up to 512.
Once you are done creating partitions, go ahead and put the latest JACHero on the FAT32 portion and flash away (don't forget to rename to update.zip).
At this point if you follow all of these steps there is no way possible that your phone should not boot right into the system to run the initial setup.
These steps pretty much walk you through steps as if you were starting with a phone that has completly nothing on it.
Also the first boot up after flashing the new ROM, might take a few mins at the HTC screen.
Once your phone loads up and you go through the setup process go ahead and run swapper, it should be an APP that's already pre-installed.
Once you run swapper go into the setting and change the location of your swap file from /sdcard/swapfile.swp to /system/sd/swap.swp
Here is the reason why. The default location is your FAT32 partition. If you all of a sudden mount your phone to the computer with the swap file running on FAT32 you will corrupt your sd card, and then you will have to wipe and reinstall everything.
If you set the location of your swap file on /system/sd/ that's actually your ext2/3 partition and never gets mounted and you never have to turn swapper off.
Well I hope this helps some of you out. I will be writing the walk through on loading up live distro of Linux and partitioning your card sometime today.
I have used this method on a couple different phones and it has worked each time. Also I really recommend installing cyanogens recovery 1.2, as its an excellent way of making a back up of your phone and doing future flashing.
If there is anything anyone thinks that could be done better feel free to post in here.
Remember different people have different ways. I have posted this way cause it has worked for me on my phone and two other phones I setup, and each time there was no hicups.
FILES:
Radio 2_22_19_26I
NEW SPL
CM-Recovery-1.2
Ubuntu Linux Download
DISCLAIMER:
I am not responsible for anything that you might have done to your phone by following these directions. Like I mentioned before so far every time I have used this method, I have had nothing but success.

Yeep I was running into the same problem. It wasn't working for me in upper case either. It started working once I did it as
su <enter>
chmod 777 /data/app <enter>
exit <enter>
exit <enter>
I think it should be noted on the first pase that chmod 777 should be in lowercase.

AppsToSd search that in the market(old version)
I didnt buy the new one, its in the new and improved apps to sd thread
Alright back on topic
Okay so 1.4 is out now. He says Apps2Sd is included. I've never used Apps2sd and really don't know how to. So do I have to do anything with the 1.4 build to move it onto my sd card or will it automatically do it for me?
Run the APPS2D app with your EXT2/FAT32 partitioned SD card in and reboot that is all.
To make sure it is mounted go to the Terminal and type df, you should see
system/sd with your partitions size attributes etc
EXT3 support is next on the list.

Perfect thanks! Is this the only difference in 1.4? So I have to create the partition myself first correct? I thought Apps2sd created the partition for me. Oh well let me go create the partitions lol.
PS: the CHMOD command doesnt seem to work in upper case. Lower case only.
So will this new Rom with the app2sd app move everything but leave rosie.apk & launcher on the phone memory? Or is there something else that needs to be done?

thanks a lot, you are doing it just right
question, if my apps are already in ext2 (system/sd/app) will it work? or they will now be located in : system/sd/app_s ?
thank you
Somebody respond with how much available space they have left after running the APPS2SD.apk
i've chmod 777'd the hell outta my system/app folder and I still can't download apps. I've run the command from terminal on phone from ADB Shell, from inside the folder, from the root, as root every possible way and I still can't download anything.
Would it make a difference if I had tried downloading from market before applying commands?
I did a lot of testing and left all the files needed to keep this ROM stable and FAST under /data/app_s
Somethings work better under the app_s directory un-linked.
Everything else is under /data/app like a normal ROM so normal APPS2SD methods work. Since Marcus already has the app up I just included it...its only 18kb anyways.
This isnt off topic but an inquery to the EXT3 comming soon
Here is a question. Everyone is head over heels about using ext3 which is understandable. But why when i create and use an ext3 partition, why does everything running from my sd slow down by far?
i have 2 partitions on my sd ones an ext2 ones ext3 if i switch my link to m ext partition everything is fine.. if i switch it to my ext3 it gets about .5x slower

[ROM] ZeroXd - Puzzles are FUN [8/13/2009 - 2:30PM EST]

http://twistedumbrella.googlepages.com/index.htm
All the necessary files can be found there, including my GScripts.
This is also where all the download links to NEW versions are posted
HEHE... Oh, you wait... Just wait.... New things.... Shiny, new things....
Housekeeping:
Back everything up. This means run some sort of data backup if you want to keep your settings
You may also want to run a nandroid backup in recovery (if all else fails, you can restore it)
Warnings:
You MUST have the newest SPL
You MUST have a Class 6 SD Card
You MUST know how to read
You MUST have 3 partitions
You MUST have at least 256MB EXT
If you don't, I WILL NOT HELP YOU! (Sorry, too many times...)
and no, I will NOT teach your grandmother how to root, install, or configure this ROM
Copy the update to the SD card (rename if using pre-1.4 recovery)
Boot into recovery mode (Home and Power)
Launch the Console and press Enter
***** Not Needed in 3.80 and Above *****
Commands to execute:
mount -a
rm -r system/sd/app_s
rm system/sd/dalvik-cache/* (if dalvik to sd was done)
reboot (Immediately press the Home key again)
**********************************
Apply the update (ZeroXd-v3.5.zip under any zip if using recovery 1.4, update.zip if pre-1.4)
After going through initial setup open console
Commands to execute:
runonce
(if it gives any issues, you may need to run this first:
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
and that will make system rewritable)
After this has completed, reboot the phone normally.

Is this his 1.6 he just released?
And what APPS2SD method can/I should use? Auto Lucid, Apps2sd v1, Apps2sd v2, and/or cyanogen recovery?

Yeah, but it assumes you will apps to sd so I put back a lot that was removed, just as apps instead of system components.
Now if I apps2sd, Rosie and the core apps will stay on the actual phone, correct? Also, what Apps2sd method would you recommend my friend?
going to load this now. debating between this, ravenge's rogers, cyan's rogers and this rom. speed+exchange more important aspects...

If you're on ext2 I recommend doing 2 with the package as is. If you're on ext3, flash the other boot and do autolucid, or 1. JAC's boot doesn't support ext3 very well, but soon I will get it all merged down.
you keep the launcher and rosie? and this doesnt have what manup did does it? and weather?
So correct me if I am wrong. Since this is UnionFS will apps2sd method 2 work? Please say yes!

This does have manups mods because I liked launcher and yes unionfs does work, although if it keeps looping on the partition let me know. It did on mine but I have ext3. I think they put the scriipt in the wrong place but I need verification before I change the update.
Just to extra clarify things, all I do is install Apps2sdV2, and click move apps, and then move cache?
(if I'm on EXT2?)

Flash through fastboot, or by the flash_image command
Yes AppsToSD2 should be that simple
As for differences, did you check the very first post?

Alright, and you mean through recovery, not fastboot correct? Also, would you recommend a wipe before the flash, and a fresh format of the Ext2 partition if you were using APPS2SD before?

[ROMs] JACxHERO 1.0 and 1.2, JACHeroSki 2.7.4r2 for Magic 32B

These are entirely unchanged from the ROMs on the thread over in Dream land below (apart from one small fix for Exchange in version 1.0)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=534479
These are JAC and Drizzy's ROMs, not mine - all I've done is unpack the ROM, change one file in boot.img to make it work on a Magic, and then repack it all and sign it. So we'll forego the sigfile saying "if you like my work please buy me a Ferrari". However, this whole thing is a bit of a faffy operation and not something that's simple to set up (although is easy enough once you have everything you need in place) so I thought I'd share and save others the grief rather than hogging all the fun for myself.
These have come about because I wanted a Hero ROM, but wasn't entirely satisfied with the best one available for the Magic (Qtek's, IMO). It worked well, but the swap version dropped SMS messages sometimes, and the Compcache version was buggy, sluggish, and wifi didn't work.
JACxHERO seems to have a number of the same issues that Qtek has - dropped SMS messages (it seems that the lack of memory on the device causes the SMS/MMS process to die), and the Compcache version has broken Wifi. I said earlier on that I thought this version was oddly sluggish, but after setting up Compcache with backing swap I am loving it. By far the best Hero ROM on my own setup so far. No Wifi is a drag but I can live with it for now.
JACHeroSki 2.7.4.r2 in contrast is an older build, and one suspects they're using an older kernel; it has a working Compcache setup, but no conventional swap at all, and no multitouch. A good call if you have a slow SD card, can live without multitouch, and positively have to have wifi.
Bottom line as I see it:
Fast SD card? Use JACxHero v1.2. But you might lose SMSes (that said, no-one's reported any yet - I just worry about lack of memory issues)
Slow SD card but need wifi, and can live without multitouch? Use JacHeroSki 2.7.4 r2.
Slow SD card and want multitouch, or you insist on Compcache for other reasons, and not interested in wifi? Use JACxHero v1.0.
I personally am running 1.0 and after not being keen initially, it is growing on me and turning into a keeper. I only ever use wifi when at home and can do without it there, so it's not a problem for me.
----
JACxHero Version 1.2 - seems fast, but no Compcache
http://www.4shared.com/file/123726235/aa3ee695/jacxhero12-pn-magic.html
JACxHero Version 1.0 - Compcache, WiFi doesn't work properly. Works well if you enable backing swap and up the swappiness. See my user.conf on page 3 of the thread.
http://www.4shared.com/file/123729537/191c816a/jacxhero10-pn-magic.html
http://www.4shared.com/file/123821706/7250ac6b/jacxhero10-exfix.html (version with Exchange fix - I haven't tested this but it should be fine)
(version 1.1 didn't seem to be enormously different than 1.2; I did try it and have a working .zip but don't see much point uploading it)
JACHeroSki v2.7.4r3 - Compcache works by default, as does wifi. Note, though, there's no multitouch in the browser, which is a bit fail.
http://www.4shared.com/file/123798395/c61c220a/jacheroski274r2-pn-magic.html
NOTE THAT ALL OF THESE NEED THE USUAL THREE PARTITIONED SD CARD! i.e. fat32/ext2/swap
why have the v1.2 no compcache?
eljuego
As a note remember that JACxHero Roms dont have Compcache enabled by default.
The first post in the Dream Forum JacxHero thread tells you how to enable it - you need to edit the user.conf file, which i think is in /system/bin, can't remember right now.
It tells you which settings to change to get each combination of linux-swap and compcache
(BTW I know as it's working for me...)
Is it for 32A or 32B?
The rom for 32a or 32b ?

No idea mate. I suspect it was because of the issues with WiFi that they removed it until they could fix it.
One oddity I've noticed - the weather widget doesn't work. i select London as a city, it has a bit of a churn saying "loading weather", and no weather ever turns up. Clicking into the weather app workable fine.
Snap judgement - it's not as fast as Qtek's Rom. Just feels a bit "off". Maybe it's just me.
Loccy, the widget are buggy you sure you have ported the version 1.2 not the version 1.1 ? In version 1.2 the widget are fixed
edit : The widget have no border, but the rom is really fast probably the fastest rom i have tested !!!!

Am pretty sure I called 1.2 the right filename but I was drowning in roms by the end so it is possible I got them mixed up. Can't check until I get home now though.
Either way I'm not too impressed - more bugs than Qtek and it is eating battery (although I have been hammerring the phone more or less constantly over the few hours I've been out). I think when I get home I'm going to build the final JacHeroski Rom and see how that goes, I believe that has Compcache running.
Dazcox, how are you finding this Rom? You've been running it longer than me.
Actually I've been using QTek today... but about to install this one will let you know

Really? It's not a patch on Qtek for me. How fast's your SD card?
Am just downloading the final release of JacHeroSki - v2.7.4r2 - and will give that a try. I wonder if some of these new releases are a little too bleeding edge to be useful. If a worthwhile update.zip for the 32B emerges I'll post it here.

Ah. I have the stock 2Gb Vodafone pile of ****e (plus an "8Gb class 6" that I bought from ebay that causes a reboot loop on my Magic ). That'd probably be the problem for me.
Right chaps, here's another one for you. This is JacHeroSki version 2.7.4 r2. Someone else here has done JacHeroSki previously*, but I don't think they ever updated to the final release. It's a little behind the curve in that JAC seems to have gone on to work with Dizzy, and in a different direction, and it won't see any more development. It has working Compcache, but lacks the fancy config scripts of later builds. If you want to play with your Compcache settings, you need to edit the a2sd script in /system/bin. No conventional swap or facility for one. I'd say this is pretty much where Qtek was trying to go with his Compcache ROM though:
http://www.4shared.com/file/123729537/191c816a/jacxhero10-pn-magic.html
Am not sure I'm going to stick with this, however. I've just seen in the thread on the Dream forum that you can get Compcache working in JacXHero 1.2 by nabbing the boot.img from 1.0, so I'll give that a go too. What I'd really like is a working ROM with Compcache and swap as a backup.
edit: * speak of the devil, it's just turned up on the front page of the threads, they did do the final release, but it was for 32A not 32B. Oh, and am very disappointed to find no multitouch in the browser.

Honest answer? I don't know. I got a couple of text earlier when running JACxHERO 1.2, and I was hammering the browser at the time (if icanhascheezburger.com isn't going to run you out of available memory, I don't know what is). But I think a definitive answer will have to come from people who text more than I. Unfortunately texts seem to be an issue on all Hero ROMs on the G1 and the Magic 32B, because of memory - hence why my goal is to get a build with as much "memory" as possible, even if most of it is swap and compcache sleight of hand.

Which one? I found I had to completely clean off my ext2 partition before it'd run (coming from the Qtek ROM). Well, actually what I did was go into the recovery console and shift everything the Qtek had left in ext2 into another directory so that this ROM didn't get confused by it

If you were coming from Qtek's Rom, like I did, It does boot loop unless you clean your ext partition first, then wipe and reinstall the rom. It runs like a champ.
to erase the ext: boot into recovery
then from adb shell : run
mount -o rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /system/sd
rm -rf /system/sd/*
then do whats stated above and no boot loop anymore.
PS: Loccy thx for the port.
PPS: to get this working with compcache instructions are in the first post of the dream rom

De nada. All I did was just change a few files.
I'm done for the night now people. I did try to get 1.2 running with 1.0's boot.img, but ended up with a ROM that had no working wifi and no apparent Compcache. I figured that wasn't any better than 1.0 proper (which I'm going to give another crack and see if I can tidy up the Compcache settings to my satisfaction - I can live without wifi for now).

MD5: a04acee7df4e859bd2012954e1ec5447
Motorolla Blur: http://twistedumbrella.slackdev.com/MotoBlur-1.2.zip
This is an untested update, works in theory...
Sapphire Fixes: http://twistedumbrella.slackdev.com/Deport-1.1.zip
Removed Apps: http://twistedumbrella.slackdev.com/Extended.zip
Extended Apps: http://twistedumbrella.slackdev.com/Incremental.zip
Back your apps up as an update in case you do a wipe using this:
Download Incremental.zip above. Back all the apps up you want.
Open the archive and replace the apps in the data/app directory.
Sign the archive like a regular update and place in root of SD card.
Flash the update you want. When finished, flash Incremental.zip
Reboot the phone and both the update and apps will be installed.
User.conf file can be found as system/bin/hero.conf on any device.
No command needed for device identification. Faster boot (hopefully).
A reboot is no longer needed to use either device. This is all integrated.
Recommended not to overclock below 256, due to the black screen issue.
Compcache is enabled by default, current values were EXTENSIVELY tested.
Please do not contact me asking what values work or giving me others.
I spent 2 weeks changing values, testing, changing, testing. Both devices.
Abreviated Changelog, Full Changelog linked below:
Optimized the entire system app folder using the automated method.
Changed some animations. A lot of new stuff in use from Cyanogen.
This is a very unthemed build. The lock screen and such are generic.
The boot animation is customized and will not port to other builds.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4758619&postcount=960
So much to do so little time, I do feel like the "white rabbit"
Now includes dynamic swap. Rewrote the method of apps to sd for myTouch.
Build will move system apps, user apps, and dalvik to sd on a g1 device.
Build will install completely internal if using the T-Mobile myTouch.
This is a completely new method of doing a merge build so bear with me.
Based on the System Image from Haykuro
Using the Kernel and modules from JacSki
Try rm system/sd/app_s if you feel new apps are not installing.
http://twistedumbrella.googlepages.com/index.htm
All the necessary files can be found there, including my GScripts.
This is also where all the download links to NEW versions are posted
Housekeeping:
Back everything up. This means run some sort of data backup if you want to keep your settings
You may also want to run a nandroid backup in recovery (if all else fails, you can restore it)
Warnings:
You MUST have the newest SPL
You MUST have a Class 6 SD Card
You MUST know how to read
You MUST have 3 partitions
You MUST have at least 256MB EXT
You MUST have Recovery1.4 or above

He most likely got the idea on his own. I just think since ZeroXd didn't get any real response he didn't notice it had LED support about a week before the 1.3 refresh was even posted. Ask the kids on twitter about back when I came up with the looney idea and how it killed auto-rotate. I threw in an old version of the codes before someone asked if I had seen the thread. I was still using ones ported from my GScript from months ago. Haha, whatever makes a better build. I'm glad to see both Drizzy and JAC getting SOME use out of something I had a part in. Hell, Shafty figured out the commands, I just got lucky figuring out where to place them.
wow, this is kinda when jac and drizzy was working together and it seemed like jac took all the credit in the built. well thats good we still got devs that supprt each other and not use ones idea and run away with it.

[ROM] JACHEROSki 2.2r4 Remix/2.2 Experimental A and B

WARNING:You must Have The Correct Radio and Latest SPL! You can find them here (RADIO MUST BE INSTALLED FIRST) You can find it here
PLEASE DO YOUR RESEARCH BEFORE FLASHING ANY ROM INCLUDING MINE IT WILL SAVE YOU AND OTHERS TIME AND HEADACHE!!!
First A big thanks to Haykuro for providing the system dump of the latest known Hero build. Great contributions from Haykuro always!!! Make sure to thank him!!!
This ROM is based off the latest "HTC" ROM leak 2.83.x.x with tons of mods enjoy!!
This is the same as the build posted in the dream section,we just wanted to keep the two threads clean so all MT3G/Sapphire Q: and problems should be posted here. As of now it works only on 32B but 32A kernal is being worked on so will be coming soon give ccyrowski time he is working hard for us.
NOTE: Once you flash before you sign in do the led fix in the instructions,also we recommend using ext3 and a 64MB Linux-swap partition.

Install Instructions​
First using adb I remove the ext3 and linux swap if you have them set already like this, remember the numbers will vary with the size of you card but I will show mine as an example.
In Recovery
This Removes the partitions
adb shell
parted /dev/block/mmcblk0
rm 2
rm 3
This makes the partitions ext2 and linux-swap 64MB remember numbers vary according to the size of your S.D if your not sure ask first.
mkpartfs primary ext2 3767 3901
mkpartfs primary linux-swap 3901 3965
This upgrades the ext2 to ext3
quit
upgrade_fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
Now with the build on your S.D
Wipe
Flash the build A or B
Now once the build loads up you may get a FC on HeroLED.apk which there is a fix that I know of for MyTouch but cant be done because the sapphire folder is not in the build and not needed the HeroLED.apk is not needed since they work without it.
Phone on as normal
Fixing the HeroLED.apk
Fix the FC on HeroLED.apk and also get your phone to read as a Magic/MT3G.

rebooting with new remix rom
I am getting frequent reboots ( about every 30 minutes) and also am getting a force close due to leds any ideas?
oops
I found the fix for the led force close. any idea on the rebooting?
Well the rebooting I have not seen on these ROMS really I would reflash again and let me know if still keeps happening,also are you using the remix or what version?
@jabbawalkee
I will maybe drop tonight not sure its up to cc but the BFS-300 will have the 10MB hack for MT3G/Magic for those who dont know that. I know you do but some are waiting so I tossed that info in there.
@Daneshm90
I know bro I am working on getting that for you hopefully today but cc is a bit under the weather so we will see.

Great work.
After seeing that Tweet from last night. I'm glad to see this up-and-running this afternoon.
About time the "official" build finds a home in the Sapphire Development Section.
Oh, and thanks for the hard work put in last night. I was working like a dog, testing for CC last night on that BFS-300 patch. Lol.
(not that it was "hard" work or anything.)
Glad to see you in this section though.
No prob I will be around in both sectitions because I have both G1 and the MT3G,I wanted it to not be so mixed in the dream thread people seemed to get confused there will be a update either today or tommarrow that will be real nice.
I am helping as much as I can but cc is killing it with all his new work and mods mike's user.conf is also amazing.

Take your time tonight.
You might as well drop tomorrow, just give everything a chance to settle today.
People are hyped enough on the BFS-300 high. Lol. No need to cause a global overdose.
I'm eager to see this user.conf you speak of. Some sweet-ass options within I hope! As for the G1 and MyTouch, same here. But, I have three MT3G devices. (employee of; you guessed it.) Anyway, if you need a tester later tonight or whatev.
TWEET ME!
US MT3G w/2.2a problems
First, I have an 8GB SD card, with the standard partition sizes (7GB FAT32, 32MB Linux-Swap, and the rest Ext3)
I am using Cyanogen 1.4, and I did a wipe, and check of my ext before updating. The SD card was empty on all partitions, except the 2.2a named as update.zip
First thing I saw on startup (and every startup) is the LED notify crash, but more serious is the phone being stuck in headset mode. Tried rebooting, plugging in charger, plugging in actual headset, but it was just stuck on.
I ended up flashing back to my stock tmobile 1.5 firmware until it's more stable.
My knowledge of this device is a bit limited at this point. I know I am running the latest radio, but I am not clear on what SPL is (or ADP for that matter).
Can anyone help fill in the blanks or tell me what I am doing wrong?

I said in the first post that swap is better at 64MB and there is instructions in the first post that talks all about the FC on HeroLED all you need to do is hit o.k and follow the steps posted. Also coming from another wipe a format of the ext3 should have been done read the first post.
Does everyone have the auto-backlight option?
Same issues...

Thanks for pointing that out, I now see the instructions that I did not notice before.
I used Ubuntu to delete my partitions, and re-do them with the sizes stated in the instructions, so the partitions are clean. I then copied the update.zip (22a) to the card, and put it in the phone. Started Cyanogen, wiped, repaired ext partition, and installed the update.zip
I still have the headset indicator stuck on.
Went into terminal, but could not get a keyboard to come up. I used "better terminal emulator" instead, which should work. I followed the steps, but when I got to "magic", it came back with "rm failed for system/bin/sapphire, no such file or directory"
I still have the LED FC at startup, and am still stuck in headset mode.
Any ideas?

Get 2.2r4, not 2.2a

No auto-backlight option after installing 2.2r4 and running the magic script.
