Senselx ROM question - myTouch 3G, Magic General

If I want to update to the 3.2 version can I just flash the ROM? I'm running on the 3.1 MTD version, I don't have to wipe anything, of delete my ext partitions? I also don't have to use that FR remove thing to get rid of the MTD?

You shouldn't have to wipe anything.
and the only time you need to flash fr-remove is when you want to remorse custom mtd. (Such as changing roms. Or if you wanted to use the no-mtd version.)
I felt like I needed a signature.... here it is

Ah okay so its alright if I just flash the 3.2 version? I won't lose my data or anything?

Yep. You should probably make a backup first tho.

BTW how come there is no YouTube?
also, I tried to flash the non-MTD version onto my brother's phone, but it gets stuck on the myTouch 3g green screen, do I need an ext partition to do the the non-MTD version?

New ota update has anyone flashed?

Has anyone actually flashed the new ota that has come out on a stock non rooted device. I've seen that its floating around although I haven't seen any conformation that people have successfully flashed it and that it works.

Would like to know if it can be applied to a rooted iconia or if I should unroot first.

It's an incremental, not a full ROM. It should work fine rooted, but if you've altered, frozen, renamed or deleted ANY original files, it will fail.
See I haven't rooted at all and have the version 1.141.07 so it should be okay to update right? The worst thatll happen is it fails to install and I just go back to what I had before correct?

That is correct.
So just to confirm I wont lose my current data?

Not if you flash the FOTA when your tablet notifies you, no.
Ah I know that, I'm talking about flashing the one posted on the forums

It's a full ROM. When flashing a full ROM, it's always best to wipe data first. You can try without doing that; it might be fine, it might not.
Worst that can happen is you'd have to go back into recovery and wipe.
Do a backup first, a nandroid one in case you want to rollback, and a Titanium one for your apps and data for easy reinstallation.
Hmm, I thought the one on the forum was an incremental to 3.1?

Hi All
I've also got the system prompt to update to 1.141.07 (39.71MB). I have not rooted and have three numpty questions-
1.This I understand is not the Honeycomb 3.1 update?
2.Also I'm in the UK and got my Iconia in the USA- that does not have any effect on updating does it? I mean setting wise?- (dumb but I'm being very cautious!)
3.The Wifi issue people are having with this update is related to ROOTED tablets?
Cheers all
I was rooted and I flash the full from everything is working fine right now!

[Q] Do I have to update my my touch 4g to flash a rom?

Because I'm running on a rooted 2.2.1 phone. I followed gfree's ultimate root and now I want to flash a mod , so do I have to update my software?
Anyone ?...........
You can just start flashing. You're already set. Just make sure you boot into recovery and make nandroid of your current rom. Might want to update recovery through rom manager before anything though.

[Q] Why wont my MT4G run any ROMS that have the Sense UI?

I just started flashing ROMs to my phone and I do want to have the ability to run ROMS that have the sense UI. Every time I flash one, all these processes start crashing one after the other. I can never get to the homescreen. :/ Also, I LOVE the way the MIUI ROMs look, but this one process crashes every 5 seconds or so and it really gets in the way of using the phone. Is there a fix for this?
What recovery are you using and what version? Also, are verifying the ROM's MD5 before flashing?
Looks like a failed eMMC or a bad download. It successfully flashes in CWM though?

I thought about failed eMMC, but didn't think the ROM would flash or boot at all in that case. It's possible though.
have you verified the md5 sum?
done a full wipe?
Are you flashing the rom by itself or are you flashing anything else with the rom simultaniously before booting up? Like a theme, mod or kernel. Is always best flashing the rom alone, booting up, doing a nandroid and then flash anything else on top.

Are processes crashing before you get the to the GUI, before setup is complete, or after setup is complete?
Incidentally, MIUI is not a Sense ROM and is part of the AOSP/CM family. It sounds like you have a problem that extends to both types.

This is the reason why I asked the op if they boot up the flashed rom before flashing anything else.

I was wondering if the OP has got some bad apps that get installed by the Market on every ROM that is flashed.
I solved my MIUI problem by wiping everything before I installed.

You're supposed to wipe everything before you flash any ROM...

Oh jeez what did i delete

I recently went back to stock froyo and installed visionary+ to get root and delete some bloat. Well,look at the pic. Whenever I try to use the phone,or view contacts,it stays in the background while the icon stays up front. What could I have possibly deleted?

You deleted an apk that runs in the background unfortunetly u will have to re flash
Sent from my M865 using XDA
That happened to me when i was on stock, usually rebooting would fix it...
Reflash, install custom recovery, make a nand backup, then go to town deleting/freezing. Always backup first.

You flashed the ROM using CWM, correct? What was the name of the ROM?
yes, it is correct I flashed using Clockworkmod by team rogue. I am not really sure what ROM I flashed. but I attached a image of the boot screen. but the ROM I flashed was for TF101(which I think should be compatible with my SL101). or do I need to flash a Asus stock recovery image to solve this issue? BTW is this a boot loop? thanks for the reply.
Edit: I found out the ROM that I flashed.
md5sum: dd80806298385a7a8057b21b384d389f. This is the stable ROM for TF101

If you're getting a bootloop, then something either something went wrong with the installation or with the ROM. I don't think it's kernel related since you're getting to the ROM's boot animation. I would try to relash to ROM or try a different one that clearly states it's compatible with the Slider, because I still don't know which one you flashed.
then how do I flash another ROM when the slider is still in the boot animation? also what ROM is recommended for the slider? I have searched most forums and most of them are for the transformer.

I think even on that rom you should be able to boot in recovery mode. Perhaps you need to wipe data / cache and reboot again.

even I boot into recovery mode, it is only "clear data" or "android", if I wipe data, wouldn't my data be gone?

A ROM that is guaranteed to work on the Slider is Android Revolution, created by mike1986. If I were you, I would just start over completely and flash that ROM.

This here doesn't sound right. You don't connect your Slider to a computer to flash ROMs. You flash the ROM (zip file) from recovery on your Slider.
Also, Android Revolution doesn't require flashing any compatibility pack. Since it is already based on Asus stock ROM, it already has the necessary files.

Don't worry about the compatibility pack for the Android Revolution ROM.
To flash this ROM, you MUST first flash the SUPER WIPE file that is listed in the Android Revolution thread.

In theory, either should be fine.
ok, after flashing the super wipe lite and I flashed the ROM, it is still stuck on asus screen, do I use a nandroid back up and use the super wipe full version? it has been a week already and my problem still can't be solved. I am really getting very desperate.... what had happened????
Edit: problem solved. I use a factory wipe and flash a Cm9 and it worked!! but just a small question, what is the command to mount and unmount SD card in terminal emulator? my SL101 can't read my SD card
