You never want to restore system data when upgrading a ROM, you can restore app data but never system. I been upgrading every time Deck releases a new build and NEVER had a issue when restoring my apps with data.

My friend and I both get, "started with errors" on Wireless Tethering.
Activating WiFi interface... Failed
Setting ad-hoc mode... Failed
Setting essid...
Failed
Setting channel...
Failed

Do we need a different tether app or is there a trick we need to apply?
Thanks!

May i ask why never to restore system data? I did it on all the roms before and usually it worked great and restored everything and nothing happened...Just wondering..

Re: [4-16-11][ROM] gingerbread-evo-deck [pre3][1.0]
 

Did you restore system data from a sense rom to this ROM?? You can't do that, I was talking about restoring system data from the same ROM it's just from pre2 to pre3...You can't restore system data from a sense ROM because it's an entirely different system, you would have to just restore apps + app data

Re: [4-16-11][ROM] gingerbread-evo-deck [pre3][1.0]
 

Full wipe and installed pre3. No problems to report. GPS locked quickly, VVM seems to have provisioned. Will have to wait to try 4G Monday when in a 4G area. Restored some apps alone and some with data using TB with no problems.

Another great release!:toothy7:

If you're flashing a new version, you should never restore system data. Things change. I know there was enough changes between 2 & 3 that some of my theming didn't work.

You should only do apps and app-data. Anything more, as you've discovered, creates problems.

Edit: I type too slow.

I had no trouble - activated with no errors and my MacBook picked it right up.

Did you do a clean install with wipe? I had just done a clean install with a full wipe before I tried this, using the built in tether.

I've noticed the CPU runs at 100% onsystem panel on 3 where version 2 it was WAY lower. I have an older Evo and my GF has a newer. Media seems to have wakelock at 50% on both...Ive tried different set ups but when I flash back to version 2 its not as high. Full wipe on both....ideas?

logged into terminal and ran top command: this is ehat I see...


PID CPU% S #THR VSS RSS PCY UID Name
170 94% S 60 205500K 45912K fg system system_server
2444 0% S 1 940K 384K fg root top
339 0% S 25 129948K 38768K bg app_8 com.google.android.gm
2429 0% S 10 109044K 17916K fg app_56 jackpal.androidterm
2488 0% R 1 936K 376K fg root top
122 0% S 3 2772K 336K fg compass /system/bin/akmd


so for me system server is utilizing 94% CPU... just not sure if it should be - everything else seems quiet...
