Extension 4.. Help!!! - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey you guys I hate to start a new thread I usually search before I ask but In this case I can't find it..
Anybody know how to install Extension 4, or at least can post a link to a guide with the download included?.. thanks in advance

Ext4 is a type of file system. If you are wanting to convert to ext4, get 4ext recovery. There is a thread in the Mytouch 4g development forum with links and instructions. Are you using a ROM that supports ext4?

I'm using TDJ MIUI.. I don't know if it supports extension 4 as I can't post in a development thread yet to ask. But yes I want to convert to ext4. If miui is not supported can you tell me of one (or some) that support it

pretty much all of the android 2.3 gingerbread roms are of ext4.
CM7, DARKSIDE runny, Virtuous Unity, etc.

Thanks for the quick reply.. I've found the ext4 I need but it doesn't show me how to install.. any help with that?

You're welcome. Did you get it worked out? There is a link for the site where you can download the free 4Ext app. Once the app is installed let it update and then download the newest RC (release candidate) of the recovery. Then flash the recovery and reboot into that baby! It has options for converting your filesystem. If you are on MIUI you're probably good already, but it doesn't hurt to check.

Juice defender works by turning off mobile data when the phone is asleep, among other things. It will turn data back on at certain intervals to allow emails, mms, and what-have-you. Juice defender ultimate gives you supreme authority over every detail of the profile. Its a good app, and it works. I used to get annoyed by the few extra seconds of waiting for data when I woke my phone up, but other than that its great. It does make a difference on the battery.

This visually bothers me in 2 threads already.
EXT4 is NOT an abbreviation for "extension 4". EXT4 is "4th extended file system".
Please stop calling it wrong, it's annoying, and it's especially annoying that people reply to you with correct name and you won't get the hint. Thank you.

Firstly, you're more than entitled to your opinion! But there's no need to respond in such a way. To be honest I could care less about what you feel is correct or incorrect because obviously these guys understood what I was asking and helped me along until I got everything right. Its ok to correct to someone but there are ways of going about doing it. So next time respond accordingly and stay in line because a simple correction would've sufficed!

lol, i dont understand what your looking for. do you want a stock rom with sense like you had when you got the phone but rooted? or do you want a senseless rom like cm7? now i've seen the term STOCK tossed around.
I think he's looking for a true aosp rom that's just google code with it modified to work for the shift... I came from a hero recently and we had a true aosp rom with no frill like you would have found on a nexus one. It was great... fastest thing in the world... like doing a clean install of windows xp or 7... I too wish to see one on the shift... I know evervolv is aosp but its modified with themes and tweaks but its as close as we have I think...
I think as the phone picks up some development someone will put out a true aosp rom... just give it time?
Would love to see the full potential of this phone with just an os though

Just so you know UD/ROM has stolen alot of their stuff from Cyanogen(mod). Then they turn around around change some of the coding and make it their own.
That's why you will not see them on XDA.

My problem is how they did it. They joined CM then wanted access to the codes and what not. Then they turned around and bad mouthed them on their own board, then stated their own leaving certain Cyanogen baked cookies in the ROM.... It's the whole point of what they did. I will not use their stuff nor recommend it to anyone.
yea. i read some of the stuff that was going on with it. very shady to say the least. in the end its a nice rom. dont really care about the drama end of any of it.
would of been a REALLY nice rom if they woulda just did the work together start to finish and continued together after words.
And any posts with links to any ultimate Droid roms will be deleted.
Ultimate Droid is banned from xda. If you want the story go to cyanogenmod.com and you can read all about it.
There may be a couple other roms out there on other pages.. but the ones here definitely get the most attention and the most fixes.

I have tried and reached an audio source error

I personally dont know how to get the rom working but ask option as he might be able to help. If you want my files, i can send them over
