First off I'm running CyanogenMod-5.0.7-DS-test2. I know it's old but just never have updated. That being said is there a 2.2 ROM being worked on for the myTouch 1.2 phones? I ask because T-Mobile just announced that we will be getting Android 2.2 soon. Bummed because I really like some of the new stuff in 2.2 but because I've rooted, modded my phone I won't get that update as far as I know right? So therefore I have two questions. Again is there a 2.2 ROM being worked on for these phones and if not how can I get my phone back to the way it was when I first got it? Thanks in advance.
Moving to General because this has nothing to do with developing ROMs.
Sorry about that Binary.

No worries. The Magic thread has been a bit slow the past few days anyway. It's nice to have something to do.

If you flash back to your stock ROM when it's released you will get the notification and be able to install it.
The problem for XDA at the moment is that the 2.2 source has not been released, which makes it a pain in the arse to work with for cooking ROMs.

HOw do I get my phone back to stock? Is there a way to get it back to stock without losing my ROOT access?

If you want stock you will lose root. If T-Mobile send you the 2.2 update you will still not have root. Why haven't you checked out CM6-RC1 yet? It's stable and with root. I've been running it for over a week on my MyTouch 1.2 and haven't had any issues.
Individual results may vary.
So CM6-RC1 runs pretty good on the MT3G 1.2 (32A EBI0)? No updating needed on anything to run it? I JUST loaded 5.0.8 tonight. Didn't do a wipe since I was upgrading from 5.0.7 to 5.0.8. Really hate to have to wipe AGAIN and reinstall all of my apps LOL!
On a 5.0.8 related note I thought I could overclock to 576 with 5.0.8. I'm using SetCPU and it won't let me go higher than 528. Is there something I'm doing wrong?

Yes CM6-RC1 runs very well on MyTouch 1.2, you just need root and a custom recovery installed. You should use Titanium to backup your apps and data because a wipe might be required. I didn't have to... but results may vary. In regards to SetCPU, I wouldn't know because I am comfortable with what I have. I have 7 completely filled screens with JIT and everything else is default. I have just over 100 apps installed and I have about 150mb of internal memory remaining still. No need for a2sd.
Custom recovery? Would that be the Aman of whatever it's called that I have currently?

Make a nandroid backup first!!!!
Oh yeah of course.
Well got CM6 running. Not sure what's going on but man it's SLOW for some reason. I did notice my max CPU went up to 576 though. Still not sure why it's running so slow. Notice everytime I go into settings and hit the Home button my home screen has to refresh.
EDIT: Not sure if this is a bug or what but a lot of my contacts have no green phone icon next to them anymore and if I press and hold to edit them I get a Force Close. So I did some digging and notice no GMAIL accounts were setup. I went to GMAIL and it told me I had to setup an account. Hit Add Account and nothing happens. Not good at all. That explains why those contacts aren't showing up. I installed the GAPPS on the CM6 RC1 page. Should I not have done that? Weird that there is no GMAIL account setup as that's how I had to setup the phone initially. Same when I'd wiped and installed a custom ROM in the past. Also seems that Market doesn't work. I click the Market icon and a white screen opens and then closes. Very ****ty. And I know that I can't downgrade back to 2.1 (5.0.8) without wiping right?

That's what a nandroid backup is for.
But try a complete wipe, reflash and restore SOME of your apps and data. You also need to make sure that you flash the correct gapps. Froyo not the donut, eclair one.
Yeah I used the one on the same post with the CM6 download link. Will try a wipe then try CM6 again.

So Binary here is an interesting one for ya. I ended up doing a wipe. Also did a Dalvik wipe as well. Loaded CM6 RC1 on. Loaded the Google Apps on. Worked fine. Then I noticed apps showing up in my drawer that I hadn't manually installed. Eventually it appears the Market installed every app I had running before I wiped. Not sure how it did that. Trying to get my Weather Widget Donate to work. Try to load the Large flip clock and weather widget and all it does is make my home screen fade a little but that's it.
EDIT: Finally got my weather app to work. Think I'm finally on the right track now. Loving the fact I can have up to 7 screens! And the Update All in Market is a godsend!

Hey All,
First I want to apologize if this isn't the place for this thread or if this has been brought up before.
Now onto what I came here for. I have a myTouch 3G phone (the one without the jack) and I have rooted my phone a couple of months ago. The rooting process went fine and currently I'm running the CyanongenMod 4.2.15.1 rom on my phone. It's running fine as it should be. Now my dilemma is when I tried to update to CM 5.0.7 or 5.0.8. At first when I flashed the rom, I thought everything was fine during the setup process but then when it came to using any Google apps, none of them seem to work with the exception of GTalk and Google Maps. I've tried the troubleshooting guide where it says to do the fix_permissions but that didn't work at all. After about 3 days of trial and error, I finally admitted defeat and flashed back to CM 4.2.15.1. I also came to the conclusion that my phone will only take 1.5 & 1.6 roms whereas any roms 2.0 and above will not work correctly. I even tried to flash CM 6.0 RC1 and it got stuck at the green boot screen.
My question is there something wrong with my phone or am I doing something wrong? Has anyone else ran into this problem? Please let me know because I would love to have the 2.0 and above roms on my phone.
Thanks in advance
Did you do a full wipe and then upgrade?
Yes I did a complete wipe, even did the command that you do in fastboot
u gotta install the google pack i think....for that u will find it in cyanogen forums
If you mean by installing the gapps after flashing the rom, I've done that already. Also I've even reflashed the gapps again just to make sure and I also tried the fix_permissions and that didn't work either.
I also saw that the browser was acting funny too (not sure if that's part of gapps)

Hello,
In your sign, you're using an old rom with the old method of app2sd (on /system/sdcard/), newer rom uses /sd-ext/ but 1.6.2 recovery is not compatible with the new method.
Not sure but try to update your recovery with 1.7.0.
Good luck, Scargoll.
scargoll, i failed to mention that I'm already using Amon Ra's 1.7G recovery image. I need to update my sig (my bad). also as i stated before, i tried upgrading to CM 5.0.8 and running into issues, that's why i'm still running CM 4.2.15.1
Yup. Wrong section. I'll move to General when I get back home.

Well, since you say so, your phone is just jacked.
Have you tried reflashing the whole ROM and GAPPS again? See if a different version of cyanogenmod works for you.

appledroid, i've tried relashing both CM 5.0.7 and CM 5.0.8 roms gapps. the roms flashes fine but when it comes to using the gapps (with the exception of GTalk & Maps), they either close without a warning or i get a app loop (GMail does that most before it finally closes without warning)
sounds to like your running out of space on a partition while flashing. try fireat's mtd partition hack and see if it works for u.
flash the 1.1 zip
flash cm6
flash gapps
flash 1.2 zip
and then reboot

hey chris,
running out of space on a partition - are you talking about the space on the phone or on the SD Card? if it's the SD Card, not sure how that's possible when I have 4GB card (also it's not partitioned as of now but before I did have it partitioned)
if i follow this route, do i need to flash CM 6 or can I flash CM 5.0.8?
also where can i find the 1.1 and 1.2 zip files?
in any case, i'll try both to see what's up
um does anyone know what chris is talking about?
c'mon....anyone?
hey im not to sure why u cant switch to the latest cm roms. cause mine is doing fine on every updates.
i use clockworkmod recovery
try redownloading the rom. while downloading, watch ur downloading progress bar, makesure u have good internet connection. do not let the data connection change speed( switching from 3g to e or g) do not let phone switch from portrait to landscape.
if any of the above does happen you will have to cancel current download then redownload.
try to download cm6 rc3 - its 2.2 and it have lots of goodies. gapps are also preinstall
well i had this problem too... i was stuck on green screen... setup abort... gapps was acting up... so i did the above and everything is fine...
i hope this works for
rooted mt3g 32b cm6-rc3 htcClay 1.3
forgot to mention... since u have this problem, i recommend a full wipe... i dont kno if it is ok to flash without wipe from cm4 to cm5 or 6... flashing rom over another rom is wat i normally do... cause i hate reinstalling apps

First of all, I'm sorry if there is a thread similar to this, or with the same purpose. I'm opening this thread because I've tried almost every mod for LG GT540 and I don't know what to use anymore...
Been a long Cyanogen mod user, I've now changed to Super Fast Froyo and I find it really as it says SUPER FAST.
What I'm asking you is, if you can tell me what is the best mod for playing games the phone wasn't designed for (any 3D game), surfing (without force closes), and using the phone as a PHONE (calls, messages - without force closes)
I've tried OpenSwift (don't know what version) about 3 months ago.. and I was able to play games, but in that time the mod wasn't stable...
Also, Cyanogen 7 (2.3.3) and I wasn't able to play games.. though the phone worked smooth, with some force closes and few restarts..
I've searched lots of forums, but everywhere there are persons saying this is better than that and vise versa..
That's normal yea.. but got tired of that, and decided to open a thread here..
About the games not playing.. well I maybe am a beginner.. but I've tried everything I could..
Any help appreciated ..
Thanks.
Stay on a custom 2.1 rom it will solve all ur problems..
Use swap for speed.
Link sd for unlimited storage space.
Nothing is as stable as 2.1 version.
Sent from my GT540 using XDA App
I agree with sanmit that everything works in 2.1 and for games is good. So you should stay in one of the many good custom versions out there. And check the other posts until devs cook something worth it to change again. Now mur4ik has released version 2.0. So will see how it goes and inform

I've decided to go with Elegance Swift 2.1, but I have a problem now... I can't flash it with Clockwork Recovery... it says "installation aborted"
I have wiped user data, phone, cache.. everything but it just doesn't work.. Is there a way to do this with fastboot? That's lots easier.. but I see a file called "data.img" here and don't know how to write that on phone
Thanks.
buya new phone?
just sayin, i dont think the gt540 is the best one for gaming. as its not capacitive screen. so you cant play mario or something smooth. but yeah as said above the stock 2.1 is the best. as i hav the SwiftDroid milestone1 V2.0 android 2.3.3 the battery dies too quick to play many games.
I don't want new phone lol
by the way... I found out how to install via Recovery.. but now my phone won't boot.. it's stuck on LG LOGO...
I can't post in developers threads.. and I can only ask here..

Did use fastboot for boot.img, still the same problem...
if you flashed via recovery then the boot.img should have been included in the backup so in what i will do is download the rom your tring to use and make a fresh backup and upload it for you

Can you just tell me how to do this with Clockwork?
to do it via recovery copy the zip file you and me downloaded to to the root of your sd card then go into recovery and select install update zip then select choose update zip and then select the zip file you copied to the root of the sd card

I think that CM7 is a lot better than 2.1 in many terms. (battery is worse, but it still lasts 2 days)
Use the stock 2.1 thats the best for your wishs...
Its the most useful...
i try everything but always back to stock or soft mod 2.1
Hello, I recently have bought gt540. Everything was fine, but then I thought about upgrading android. I upgraded it and the problems started. With Andriod 2.1 my started to have various programs' crashes, so I installed france orange rom v20c for fastboot, flashed recovery and etc. Now the thing is my phone has crashes on custom roms too. even on Utopia and full froyo rom by MikeGapinski. Sometimes my phone don't even boot up at all, then ai took of the battery and turn it on once again. Sometimes when it boots up there is no crashes but there s some apps , too. For example sometimes market dissapperas. What can cause this problem? I know it can be because of kernel. I want to hear possible ways to solve this problem. Maybe it would help if I install stock 1.6 rom via KDZ updater and then install custom rom? And one more thing it won't boot up with v20c (or v20b) it stucks at android screen.
Thank you all in advance.
You cant go back to 1.6 now.....don't try to you will brick your cell.

did you do a factory reset ?
After factory I got to the starting point, it hardly boot ups, if boot ups there are crashes. Could this be caused by that my phone as I suspect was not from baltic region and i installed update for Lithuania's location?
hmm that does no matter i live in Asia and i used the European version
I knew that it doesn't matter (on lg p500) but I thought:'Maybe there is a difference on gt540' So what could it be? Could this be because of bad fastboot.exe? I really don't know if the fastboot.exe witch i have is good ( it does the job, but maybe there are bugs in it)
I tried install Synergy rom (for old recovery) it started fine but it says it can't find xbin/cksum, this is the only rom which installs from recovery normally ( others jus t takes 5s... this one is copying files normally) So can anyone provide me rom for old recovery ? or maybe new fastboot.exe would be fine, too.
P.S.now i'm using CWM recovery v2.5.1.8

It didn't work. I installed v20c france (orange) it seems to work, but sometimes it could be not stable (for example crash or rebooting). Maybe this related to cpu? Maybe it is overheating or smoething?
I think its not a problem with the cpu. The cpu runs with stock configs.

I go to the market pick up game, it starts downloading it, after it finishes downloading, I get error :'downlaoding was unsuccessful, please try again'. I somehow installed Ninja chicken, and after all tuts in the game, you should be transferred and play, but that doesn't happen, I get that game turned off by itself. So what the problem? Is it really not cpu? Maybe something with cache?
hmmm ok er wipe data cache and try again?
I'm getting error abou downlaoding progrms... dunno why. Does my phone really don't support angry birds ?

UPDATE: The problem seems to occur with some N7's if you did your initial upgrade from 4.2 to 4.3 by means of a flashable zip such as Scott's rooted stock 4.3.
The problem does not seem to occur if you took the update over the air, or if you flashed the official recovery image in full OR in part (as in just the system/boot images) using fastboot.
The solution is to flash the official update using flashboot. Post #20 has some info if you need help. Flash should work just as it did in 4.2 after you do this.
Adobe Flash should also work in future custom 4.3 ROMs you install down the road... whatever causes the issue gets fixed when you fastboot flash the image(s). I tested and confirmed this by flashing CleanROM (again) along with Adobe Flash - it worked after the fastboot image flashing, it didn't work before.
Cheers!

Firefox and Dolphin both crash on Flash content. I tried several different Adobe 11.1x Flash apks... no luck
Yes I know it's not *officially* supported, but it wasn't for 4.2 either but it worked great... is 4.3 now the end of the road for Flash, for real this time?
I might roll back to 4.22; I watch a lot of sports streams on this thing- unless there is another viable option (last time I tried Skyfire it was pretty lousy at handling video streams).
Edit: seems like this problem only occurs if you upgraded by flashing a custom ROM. Flashing the update via fastboot resolves it.

I'm using Firefox Beta v23 and Flash v1.1.115.63 and can view flash videos. In Firefox settings, I have plugins set to tap to play. With a video box up, I tap the 'Tap here to activate plugin', touch it again and the video loads and I can play it.

yeah, same here, flash on demand cause I didn't want it to crash if there was flash content on a page. just turned it back to always on and still works, no crashes.

No luck here with .63 and Dolphin
Maybe something is wrong with my N7

did you do a full uninstall of flash? force stop, clear data & cache before uninstalling?
I'm also using jetpack for dolphin, not sure if that helps or not.
I'm having the same trouble w/ flash using Naked Browser on 4.3. This could be it for flash on Android?

Perhaps you skipped over the last two posts confirming that flash still works on 4.3 with Firefox Beta.
Something is definitely afoot with certain N7s
Mine will not work. I'm no n00b either, I've been doing this stuff for a long time.
I've tried every single flash apk and every single browser that supports flash.
I tried flashing the 4.3 CleanRom and the unmolested 4.3 ROM from Scott. Same result.
I tried using faux123's kernel.
I'm back on 4.2 now, but i'm gonna try another full wipe and flash the factory image.
My N7 is an early build 16gb model fwiw.
Same here, but I did get flash working on uc browser, but I didn't like the browser so uninstalled. Waiting for developers to catch up... unless Google is going out of their way to make sure flash isn't supported. Makes no sense since 75% of content I look add is flash only.
"Swyped" on my Nexus 7 via XDA app
I'm on stock 4.3, fastboot installed after wipe.
tested flash 11.1.115.63 on pretty much all the flash enabled browsers and Dolphin 10.0.1 & Firefox 22 (23 beta) are the only ones that works.
Dolphin by far the most stable one, was able to play all flash from various sites.
the worst site for flash is YouTube. both will play, but Firefox crashes on full screen. Dolphin runs youtube fine on YouTube's site, but trying full screen on embedded YouTube is a toss up.
Success!
Wiping/reflashing via fastboot did the trick, Flash is back! I have no idea what the issue was, it must have been some sort of conflict but whatever it was is gone now.
Thanks for the feedback
Flash is working with Firefox Beta on 4.3 for me.

Mine is a brand new custom Rom and Kernel flash (using TWRP). I did all 3 wipes (data, Dalvik & system) and rebuilt from scratch. Still crashes on .63.
What else should I do? Mine is a 32gb N7.

How did you upgrade to 4.3? Just by flashing a custom ROM (such as Scott's ROM)?
I'd recommend following these steps: http://anddisa.blogspot.de/2013/07/update-nexus-7-to-android-43-manually.html#gpluscomments
You'll need to have 1) fastboot & drivers setup on your computer (I recommend the universal naked driver) and you'll also need 2) that updated SuperSU file that is mentioned; google for it and put it on your /sdcard area of your N7.
Mine worked after doing that.
