Ok I guess I will ask again since no one answered. I searched the forums over and over, and its VERY VAUGE so please dont bother responding with smart remark...
I did eveything I was suppose to, to install this ROM (Cyanogen v4.1.999) on my MT3G. I am using RA-dream-v1.2.2 recovery image. When it boots up it is looping at the boot screen. Obviously you cant go into console with a mytouch because there is no keyboard. Can someone please help me to stop the looping and to get it going here.
I went into the recovery screen and partioned my sd card, and switched ext2 to ext3 , but then the loop stopped and it would simply sit at a black screen.
Anyone can take the time to IM me or simply help me would be appreciated

First I have to make a smart remark: Read the forum rules about opening up a new thread... the mod will probably close/delete this anyway.
Now about your problem...
Do you have a 32B or a 32A ?
(You can check by holding BACK+POWER when powering on your phone)

Why Download HTC ADP 1.6 DRC83 ...i thought it was the O/I that i had to use
What is the O/I ?
i meant I/O
http://developer.htc.com/google-io-device.html
The http://www.androidspin.com/downloads.php?dir=enomther/ROM/&file=HTC_ADP_1.6_DRC83_rooted_base.zip is a rooted I/O for MT3G. Better to take that one and not run the risk to end up with an unrooted phone again. Trust me, it works, I did it on my phone.
Make sure you follow my instructions to the letter and you will be fine.
Let me know the outcome.

That's an option of the 1.2.2 recovery "format ext partition"
hmm
Format ext partiton is not an option. I am using the Recovery-RA-dream-V1.2.2 and that not an option.
Also after I install HTC_ADP_1.6 it does not auto reboot and show me the unpacking symbol. It just sits at the recovery menu until i click reboot.

Yes yes, that is NORMAL because you are not using Cyanogen Recovery 1.4 !
Make SURE that when you selct REBOOT, IMMEDIATELY press HOME so that come into Recovery again !!! Then flash Cyanogen 4.1.999 !!!!
.
but i dont have a format option for the ext 3
Nevermind that then... just make sure you Wipe (even do it twice) then as an alternative choose 'Convert ext2 to ext3' and then choose 'Repair ext filesystem'.

I 'think' there is a compatible gChrome theme for 4.1.999 ... do a search.
I would wait for 4.2 before applying a theme though.

You need to reformat the SD and redo install - its trying to run old apps - at least this was my problem
If you get stuck like this in the future, consider using adb. modifying partition tables/rebuilding/tuning filesystems is much faster and easier for me via adb shell. Your mileage may vary.

You're not supposed to use any other apps2sd with cyanogenmod, it says that plainly in the instructions.
I think the easiest thing is to wipe and reflash.

i went to the menu that says restore to factory / wipe and its still not booting. what exactly do i need to do / download. thanks. (sorry for bein dumb)
You need to wipe your ext partition now. Search this forum for the instructions. Then you need to go back to the CyanogenMod thread and memorize all the warnings he has posted.
You better start reading carefully before you brick your phone. There are multiple warnings saying DO NOT USE ANY OTHER APPS2SD METHOD. Just about all roms now are auto when it comes to apps2sd.
i wiped the phone and took out the sd and it still doesnt boot. do i need to root agian? ughhhh

i searched for "wipe ext partition" and cant find anything. can you point me in the right direction?
and thank you guys so much
go into parted from the recovery console.
use "print" to show your partitions, write down the start and stop locations
use "rm 2" replacing my 2 with your ext partition number but most likely it's 2 anyways
then remake the partition using the start and stop locations from the "print" results.
type "quit" or "exit" (i forget which one.
now type "upgrade_fs"
now type reboot recovery and reflash the rom
mmmmmmmmm yummy, a big ol' bowel of booty loops, the prize in the box is an android
thanks guys! with your help she is up and running
but one more question. since i have the new cyan build and you guys say apps2sd is built in how do i activate it? i have an icon at the top saying memory is low.

All you need in order to get the apps to automatically be moved to the SD card, is to have an existing ext3 partition.
As someone said earlier, use Cyan's recovery (which hopefully you flashed to, right?) and use the Parted application to create an ext2 partition. You will then go back to the normal recovery console and run the script "upgrade_fs", which will upgrade the filesystem from ext2 to ext3.

Code:
1. On your phone, goto Settings, Applications, and make sure Unknown source is checked ON.
2. On your phone, goto Settings, SD card and phone storage, and click Unmount SD card.
3. Then click Format SD card (it should automatically remount after this).
4. Plug the phone into the compuer via USB, then pull down the notification bar and click on the SD card notification. Then click mount.
5. Download this APK and recovery image and save it to your computer:
6. Save both the recovery-RA-heroc-v1.5.2 and the FlashRec.apk to your computer, then copy them both to your SD card (do NOT put them inside any folders on the SD card, just put them on the SD card itself).
7. Unplug the phone from the computer once they are downloaded to the SD card.
8. Goto the Market and download Linda File Manager or any file manager program if you do not already have one.
9. Open the file manager and goto SDCard and then find the FlashRec apk file and click it. If asked tell it to use Package Installer to open it. It should automatically install the apk.
10. Open the FlashRec program and click on Backup Recovery Image and wait for it to finish.
11. Once done, click on the empty text box in the FlashRec program and type (again remember we have replaced the recovery image from the one in the video so type what is written here, NOT what is written in the video!):
/sdcard/recovery-RA-hero-v1.7.0.1.img
Then click on the Flash Custom Recovery Image button (this button might say something else in different versions of Flashrec, but similar to this) and wait for it to finish.
12. Turn off the phone and turn it on into Recovery mode by holding down Home and Power to turn it on (keep holding until the recovery screen comes up has a bunch of text on a black background). So long as that screen comes up, you have done it correctly
Now this mite not work with your rom but it will not damage it in any way,
If point 10 fails then you will not be able to do it this way.
I know my self i had to downgrade my orange rom before doing it,
But before that point 10 just kept saying failed,
Downgrade and it worked a treat.
Hope that helps.

Greetings,
I guess it did not work then,
As for the downgrade this depends on your provider,
I was able to get the orange rru thats a .exe and just run this,
But if you give have a look on the internet for your provider i am sure you will be able to find some thing,

Fix robotic voice issue:1. First solution, disable “Audible touch tones” from the “Sound Settings” menu(just uncheck the box) and reboot your phone. (Note: Disable it right after you flash a new ROM and reboot, that way your phone system will remember it.) So, no more Robo Voice for you.
2. Second solution, while you experienced the Robotic-Voice call, enable the loud speaker, and disable it. You will have no more Robotic-Voice until your next boot.

I have a question about the SD-card. Is it necessary to format the card before installing a ROM? And if so what format (FAT32 or..)?
Thanks and regards but what problems that requires this meathod to be fixed

No, it isn't. If you do, FAT32 works fine

happened to me to, but i changed my rom, it's not happening anymore something in the rom you are using may cause your phone crash when you use your gps. Maybe you should ask the chef of the rom if the issue is familiar, and if it is a fix for it ?

Setting Up Data2Ext with RA 1.7 RecoveryI made this guide for my own personal future use and decided to share it with the community. I take no credit whatsoever for this information or the files used to install this mod on your phone. Credit for the guide goes to Laie1472 who spent several hours walking me through the process in the absence of good instructions for our device. If you don’t know what this mod does or could potentially do to/for your phone, don’t install it. Please read this entire guide before flashing or asking questions which may already have been answered. As the title states this is for users who have RA 1.7 Recovery installed. If you don’t have RA 1.7 recovery, you can find it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10531580&postcount=5
Now on with the guide:
Step 1. Back up your sd card to your computer as this process will format and partition your sd card.
Step 2. Reboot into recovery and select partition sd (this will wipe everything on your card). You will be given 3 prompts….swap, ext. 2, & Fat 32. Partition as follows:
Swap=0
Ext2=1024
Fat32=remainder
Step 3. Since the above step erased everything on your sd card, now would be a good time to do a nandroid backup.
Step 4. Download & place on the root of your sd, the data2ext2-v7.zip attached to this thread, but DO NOT FLASH IT YET.
Step 5. Decide whether or not you’re going to use your current rom or install a new rom (easier). If you’re going to use your current, you’re going to want to uninstall all of your apps & theme in order to utilize the additional memory you’ll be freeing up on your phone. If you’re going to use a new rom download it & the appropriate gapps and move them to the root of your sd.
Step 6. Boot into recovery, wipe, and flash your new rom & gapps. Boot into your rom and sign in, but don’t install any of your apps.
Step 7. Reboot back into recovery and flash the data2ext2-v7.zip
Step 8. Boot into your rom & open Terminal Emulator.
Type the following commands minus the ( )
su
mount|egrep mmcblk0p2
(this should return nothing but a #)
Now type:
mke2fs -m0 -b4096 /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
(let the scripts run….when they finish you’ll type the next line)
data2ext --enable
(You should now be prompted to reboot, so type)
Reboot
Step 9. Once you’re rebooted go to settings/storage. You should now see .94 GB or so of available space… Congratulations you’re almost done.
Step 10. The performance boost. Open Terminal Emulator again and type:
su
busybox mount -o remount,noatime,nodiratime, /mnt/asec/ext/ext2 /data
reboot
Step 11. You’re finished, but before you re-install your apps read the You Should Know section of this guide.
You Should Know:Now say you want to make a backup of your rom and you have data2ext enabled
do this
Boot into recovery and choose backup and restore. Then choose
create nandroid+ext back up
after it's done always flash the data2ext zip and reboot.
Say aosp/cm/whoever releases an updated rom and you want to update your rom and keep all your apps and theme and settings
Do this
Boot into recovery and make a nand+ext back up by following the steps above. "you don't have to if you already have good backup''
Now wipe cache and davlik-cache and flash then flash the rom update then flash the data2ext zip and reboot
Say you want to flash a new kernel with data2ext enabled
Do this
Boot into recovery wipe cache and davlik-cache. Then flash the kernel then flash the data2ext zip and reboot.
If you ever need to wipe cache or davlik-cache always flash the data2ext zip right after then reboot
PLEASE NEVER WIPE THE SD EXT unless your redoing the whole mod or just want to start fresh
AGAIN NEVER WIPE THE SD EXT
this will more that likely result in a boot loop and make all your once good nands useless
and you might have to reflash your recovery
Say you want to flash a sense rom to update prl/profile.
Do this
Boot into recovery wipe data,cache and davlik cache
then flash sense rom and update.
Then reboot back into recovery wipe data,cache and davlik-cache then choose which nand you want to restore after it's done restoring flash the data2ext zip and reboot
Always flash the data2ext zip after doing a nand restore.
Also with this mod it's not recommended to let your battery die or do a battery pull. If you do you might have to reflash your recovery and redo the whole mod over.
Also only shut down you phone with the rom options
apps like quick shutdown and hot reboot etc will not play nice with this mod. So only use the roms power options to shut down.
If you ever want to disable this mod, open Terminal Emulator and type:
su
data2ext --disable

Thanks a bunch. Got it and worked perfect. Just have to do the performance boost (What does that do really?) then going to look at the S-Off thing. I have put that off for a long time but might as well go for it.
Thanks to both of you for the nice tutorial here and the help.

OP has been updated with the SIGNED version of Data2ext.zip. Sorry Hippie, I uploaded the unsigned version to the guide. Thanks Laie1472 for hooking him up, while I was asleep.
I'm really considering this mod right now but have a concern with the battery pull portion of it since I have a 14-month old daughter that sometimes thinks the phone is a toy. lol
Question: If I disable the mod will it automatically move all /data back onto the phone? Assuming of course I have enough internal memory for it to be moved over, will it transfer automatically?
Really good write-up, thanks for taking the time to do so.

No problem at all. Your guide worked perfect and turns out it was super easy.
I also am happy to be back RA Recovery. Was using Clockwork for a short while and while its nice, RA is much better I think. Thats just me though.
Got me a **** ton of space now and phone is moving right along again. Thanks again guys.

I've been using this mod for a couple of weeks now and have had to do a couple of battery pulls with no negative effects on my phone. There are obviously things that can go wrong, but no guarantees they will. I've enabled it, disabled it, gone back to a sense rom, updated my Orlando & gone back without trouble....but you wont know for sure how your phone responds until you try it.

No problem, just back everything up to your pc and do a nand backup before you start and you have nothing to lose and about 3/4 gb of storage to gain
At step 8 I get "/dev/block/mmcblk0p2 is apparently in use by the system; will not make a filesystem here!" when I input mke2fs -m0 -b4096 /dev/block/mmcblk0p2. The only deviation I made is I had to get a TE from the market since the one that comes with jaybob's rom won't accept numerical input.

I've never run Jaybob's rom, so I'm not sure if this is a rom specific thing, because I have used it on Deck's Gingerbread, Aosp, & CM7. What did you get when you typed:
su
mount|egrep mmcblk0p2
That should have returned only: #
Also which terminal emulator did you get from the market (I use Android Terminal Emulator by Jack Palevich) and were you using the default gingerbread keyboard (as opposed to swype, slide it, etc.)?

I was using the default GB keyboard, and I got the same TE from the market. When I typed mount|egrep mmcblk0p2 I get "/dev/block/mmcblk0p2 on /sd-ext type ext3 (rw,noatime,nodiratime,barrier=1,nodelalloc,data=writeback)" then it goes back to just #. I was burned out last night, now I can think again. Seems like maybe the ext partition is ext3 when it should be ext2? I'm using RA 1.7 and I followed the directions for partitioning the sdcard.
About a year ago I used apps to SD for a short while then stopped, is it possible that the ext part from then is still there and conflicting with the new partition from RA 1.7? I would have thought it would be wiped during the new partitioning. The only ext visible from TE is the new one, but that's all I can come up with.
I installed the setup last night without a hitch. Using Kushdeck's latest ROM and so far so good. Re-installed all my apps from Titanium Backup without a problem and everything going smooth. Once again, thanks for the detailed how-to and informative comments to update the ROM

After instaling Task 29 with Radio 2.15.50.14 windows won't run.It say green HTC and don't startup.
Thanks a lot for **** up my phone ...
What i can do ?
download radio '2.15.50', the 'nand toolkit' and 'paranoidandroid' rom from android NAND section. (You can change later, i'm just keeping it simple.)
phone into bootloader (voldown and power)
connect USB
when the word 'serial' changes to 'USB' on phone screen, ,
run hspl4.exe and choose 2.08.hspl NOT 2.08.0000, it MUST be 2.08.hspl ONLY.
when phone reboots, hold voldown to return to bootloader
serial changes to --> USB
install the radio (either run the customRUU.exe that came with teh radio,
OR
in the nand tookit, at the bottom left ''browse|install RUU'' choose browse and find the radio file you downloaded (RUU_Signed.nbh probably) then click install RUU
when phone reboots, quickly hold voldown to return to bootlaoder
when serial --> USB
in the NAND tookit click 'install magldr'
when phone reboots, don't touch it, it will start the magldr menu. if it doesn't,. you probably skipped the radio step.
In the magldr menu choose USB flasher
in the nand toolkit at the top left make sure 'magldr repart' is selected, then below that click the 150 MB
below that type 5 in the cache size box
then in the bottom left click 'repartition'.
when phone reboots let it load the magldr menu,
choose option 8 - AD recovery - this will start clockworkmod
in the clockwork mod menu choose mounts and storage - mount sd card-
copy the paranoid android rom.zip (dont unzip it) to your sd card
(you can also do this through a card reader if you have one)
still in clockwork mod, press end to step back untill you see the 'install zip from sd ', select that, then 'choose zip from sd' , , find where you copied the rom to, select it, sit back, let it install, then choose reboot system now.
done.
zzz i'm newbie,it looks a bit hard....
Can u support me via Team viwer pls? ...ofc if u have time..
It can't be more simple.. You can also use HD2 Toolkit thread (with screenshots). Link in my signature.

If you find a list of step by steps complicated, then no offence but you probably shouldn't be flashing.

If you just read everything carefully you won't have any problems. As samsamuel said you can't get simpler than that and just use SD Android if you don't know what to do.

listen and read this CAREFULLY. In order to install android on your internal memory ie. NAND installation, you have to follow these steps,
1. Install HSPL 2.08
2. Install Radio 2.15
3. Install MAGLDR or clK ( BOOTLOADERS )
4. Install CWM(clockworkmod recovery)
5. Install the Rom via CWM
6. Voila
You can google how to do this. Flashing means installing(if you dont know)
This is a very simple guide which takes you through all the above steps and all files are available for download. READ READ and READ somemore

Sometimes you may run into strange problems when you install the ROM.
Therefore, my recommendation is after installing CWM do:
- Partition your HD2 (using HD2 Tool) 170 Mb (Custom) and 5 Mb Cache
- Copy your ROM to the SD Card (Using USB Mount in CWM)
- Flash your ROM using Choose ZIP from SD Card
- Waitn till it has finished
- FLASH YOUR ROM A SECOND TIME (This may solve written data to Bad Blocks)
- Do not reboot but go to Advanged in CWM and do Error Report
- Copy Recovery.log to your PC Using USB Mount and check this with your favourite Wordprocessor (eg. MS-Word) and look for errors
- if there are errors, try flash again of go back and create a bigger partition (5 Mb Increments will work)
- if OK, then reboot type your SIM/PIN ans leave the phone alone for 5 nimutes at least (all sorts of homekeeping going on)
- Log on using your Google account and after you finish, let the phone finish all synchronisations (may take 10 minutes)
- Then fix your Google Play and start installing apps.
Worked for me

During the partitioning process is when CWM is installed, , partitioning wipes / resets the recovery partition, and loads cwm into it, so partitioning 'after' installing cwm is nonsensical.
I assume what you're essentially pointing out is that you have to select a partition size when installing CWM anyway so you may as well do it right the first time, right? Just wanted to clarify to anyone who was unsure of what this meant.
Sent from my NexusHD2 using XDA
yea. for most users, 'partitioning' and 'installing cwm' are the same step. Certainly for magldr, , , perhaps cLK is a little different, but i suspect anyone that knows how to apply cwm without repartitioning, how-to lists don't apply to. Anyone that needs a list, however, could do without teh confusaion of figuring out how to apply cwm and THEN partition.
