Looking good OMJ, no issues so far on the new rom.
Thanks :)

Re: OMJ's HTC EVO 2.1 Custom ROM | Eclair | *Updated | 6/25/10*
 

I am fully rooted with nand back up and all. I did it the hard way.. it took forever considering it was my first time. The only thing I did diffrent was instead of using the PC I used a terminal emulator which I see is now an option. Also from what I read you want to wipe delvik and the others twice just to make sure. I am anal too and thats pretty much why I went the hard road when rooting and flash. lol my next big step is re flashing a new rom. So I can pretty much get into the habbit of flashing when ever I want. The hurdel that I am facing though is I need to figure out how to back everything up because once I am done flashing and what not I dont want to spend an hour or two tweaking my phone so that not only has a new rom but is set to my personal prefrences lol. I am anal I pretty much go through all the apps and set the up even the ones I wont use. This pays off sometimes though because I catch things early like the google talk tweak. I set that to not auto sign in as well as other things I use. My battery life hasnt ever really been an issue and I can probably contribute it to my anal retentive ness to setting everyting up even if not using it. I dont use ATK or anything like that and I do moderaly use my phone all day. Basicly I randomly search, text, email use the phone and pretty much play around with the phone some because its still new to me and im still learnign the android wave.

Sorry its late here and I seem to be really going off topic.

Okay all my errors are fixed, the new instruction using chmod have seemed to fix everything, and wireless N is amazing, So OMJ I would just recommend some redo the rooting process if they have errors like me.

sorry, but I havent had time to type it up

so you're saying mail 2.00 will backup all your mail account settings?

yes, the APK's have been zipaligned & optimized but not de-odex'd.....a majority of the stock apks are already de-odex'd from the stock rom

I dont have a wireless N router, so can u confirm it's working in v1.5?

thx

Does v1.5 include the latest radio? I'm showing -

Baseband Version: 1.36.00.04.02

1.39.00.04.26 - shipped
1.39.00.05.31 - upgrade

you have to flash a New Radio, my Chef's don't have the radio built into the ROM, it makes it simpler and less confusion. Location the latest radio and load it the same way you load your ROM

Re: OMJ's HTC EVO 2.1 Custom ROM | Eclair | *Updated | 6/25/10*
 

I did not build a v1.5 w/ the radio.....the version u have now is the version that came w/ the full root, you need to upgrade here follow the instructions, very easy, you do not have to wipe & wont lose your data

@OMJ-yessir, that's the setting I use to back up three accounts. There is also a setting to backup Gmail itself.

ok for those that wiped b4 flashing & want to restore data, here is what I've done. Now, I am no Android expert, and to me, this would be the same as not wiping. I know if you get stuck in a boot loop, you have to wipe, so this method may be the answer. I have sent Toast an PM trying to get clarification, w/ no response. I have done this a few times w/ no problems:

1- Make sure you have HTC Sync installed on your PC

2- Download & extract Android SDK, I extracted to C:\SDK

3- copy data.img from your nandroid backup to C:\SDK\tools folder

4- open a command window, type cd C:\SDK\tools (or whatever your path is)

5- check to make sure it sees your phone, type adb devices

6- type adb reboot bootloader

7- when the phone reboots, you'll be in Fastboot

8- verify it says FASTBOOT USB in red

9- on the pc, type fastboot flash userdata data.img

10- you'll see a green bar on the top right progressing

11- when done, on the phone, scroll down to reboot....all done!

thx bro
