2) Is there any sort of performance improvement by setting up a ext partition on your SD drive?

Thanks
Gen.Y Dualboot doesn't work with the new andboot directory, which is sort of annoying. So you can use dualboot, but you have to store your files in the root of the sd card. And it doesn't really speed things up that much. So I think people haven't gone too crazy for it.

Some people have said they've gotten a performance boost from setting up an ext2 partition. I found no speed gain (class 4 card) and a signficant decrease in file stability. (i.e. on a crash, I was more likely to end up with filesystem corruption with the ext2 partition than with the image file. This is just my experience, and no one else has confirmed it, though.)

Have you got a RAPH500? (It'll say so under the battery -- either RAPH500 or RAPH800 -- top right part of the text under there)

If so... yeah, it'll freeze, and ain't no way around it. Except learn to use git and fix it yourself. No one else has stepped up and done that yet, unfortunately.

I am not sure why the latest package you released did not have this... I am taking some pictures and will post with what I am talking about...

I will also bring back the build I posted and try to send an MMS picture from it and see how that works.

THANKS ALL AND HOPE THIS HELPS IN ANY WAY FOR YOUR DEVELOPMENT.

THE ERROR: Unsupported action That action is not currently supported.

ATTACHED ARE PIX OF YOUR BUILD. JUST BOOTED TO WHAT I HAD, BOUT TO TAKE PICTURES OF WHAT I MEAN WITH THE MMS DEAL...
Yeah, that was what I always got when I tried to send MMS. What was the other package you used? Was it the espresso (2.1) package? I think maybe because of the lack of camera support the libraries for dealing with pictures just aren't included in the standard xdandroid package. I haven't tracked it any further than that.
