Modaco alpha3 test rom is up

Here is the link to the page Thanx P!! SCROLL DOWN TO POST 59!!! No Wifi though...Be thankful folks. ...And yes IT IS A WORKING DESIRE ALPHA ROM....NO BOOT LOOPS FOR ME
To the Mods....Just sharing the love

Something to live for...
Okay So of course if your here is beacuse your waiting for modaco to release the new alpha, well alpha three was released as you see above and with the alpha2 boot image all the communications are locked down.
Here are some screen shots of this Beauty. I will Spread them around once everything is up and running. Also I have placed the alpha2 img.. for you to download...
Just unzip this and flash this via fastboot only after you have just flashed the alpha** rom.. K?

Its loads the flash but so far i can't get a video to play. It says Video unavailable or something. Im sure someone will get a way to work. I don't think it will be too smooth though honestly.

Little By little we pile up in here now, and THIS IS GENERAL SO MOD, LEAVE IT BE.... Now, I say that it is a good move.. I notcied that if i flash the alpha2 boot it works as its on but if you reboot were back to the white screen so, guess this is being worked out.
Besides that.. I kept a Nadroid of the one without alpha2 and then run the one with it. I have not switched back to another rom SINCE!!!
Addition: If you have the alpha 3 rom and you flash the alpha2 img.. you will end up back at the white screen upon reboot.. No biggie, just have to revert to your alpha3 nandroid (WHICH SHOULD HAVE MADE BY NOW) and flash it again. So runn it lightly until P comes through tomorrow, well a few hours for him, and see where this goes...

Nandroid Back Up
Hey, How can I get this to be a Nandroid so I can Megupload this... This way people can run it with everything done.. I mean apps, paid, free, better keyboard, root explorer, jesus the list rides...
I wanted to do that do everyone can have a one click solution and just run the rom right from when they sign in with everything...
Just asking...
Honestly, I see flash in this as in or out thing.. I searched on google for best flash sites and got some water site, marc ecko, etc... This showed on the device with all of it working.. Many sites i should work.. I just dont know where the median is on this. I cant tell.

Hey JesusCat could you please link us to an alpha3 download?

It looks like Google Voice isn't working for calls, I still dial out with my normal number not my GV number.

I don't believe you would be able to post that nandroid on here in accordance to the rules on warez.

Nandroid Back Up
Okay, My wife sort of talked to me and made sense.. Instead of doing it with everything I will get it to where you have to sign in and download all your apps or crawl back from SD. I will get a Nandroid Up in the Morning as soon as I see something from P. This way you could have it this simple way too. I guess i will be helping him out with a simple one click push of his mods...

How would this be different from having to wipe and flash the ROM? The main reason I am saying this, is because on the G1, restoring nandroids from another G1 would result in some hardware issues sometimes, so I wonder if this would persist on the N1.

Well, this is the case.. It all works the same... All nexus are the same, depending on personal daily abuse... I could do this and get it done, but, after thinking, discussing and addressing the situation.. i would say there is no diff in flashing versus the nandroid. I just wanted to make it easier, but, as my lady said, lets let it be Modaco's game...
Only his..

I can report Orb works both via browser & the new
Orb app, wifi only so far, but that may be my server settings.

[Q] Clockwork Recovery

any chances of us getting it?

Contact KOUSH from the forums here. He made it and ported it to the galaxy s phones so he might be able to help..
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App

so after getting in the irc room for koush i was directed to http://www.koushikdutta.com/2010/10/porting-clockwork-recovery-to-new.html
i must say that his blog is very appropraitely named.
I'm trying to get my ubuntu box setup to do the stuff he's asking but my phone isn't here yet it's in the mail. (i'm hoping this one has a clean esn.............)
i do however have my Sylvania Tablet that i would love a custom recovery for and am a little lost on the guide as well. I'm completely new to any kind of android dev work at all. and have very little programming background.
I'm enough of a nerd though that i feel i should be able to tackle anything i set my mind to. so when my interecept gets here tomorrow i'll be headed down this road and seeing where i end up.

Edit:
Hey it worked! The recovery is awesome. Just like the good 'ol days.

i had used Amon_RA since my G1 days, wow this brings back memories. Then I used his Nexus One Playstation recovery to jailbreak my PS3. goodtimes

this recovery works great and is super fast. i love whoever ported this!

Since everyone can't contain their excitement, I guess I will try it

[Q]Testers wanted

Ok so I know you guys here in the G2 forums already have some pretty nice recoveries but I thought I would offer mine as well
I don't have a G2 device so there's really no way for me to test out anything so I need some testers before I post working versions of the recoveries on rom manager. If your interested in testing post here or pm me and we'll go from there. I will be checking back on this thread and pm's.
Recovery features:
- These recoveries are based on Clockworkmod recovery meaning it will work with rom manager if you like to use rom manager to download various things and receive OTA notifications.
- If these recoveries are good I will be posting roms on rom manager for vision.
- These recoveries support EXT4 partitioning, meaning if you format or wipe any partitions they will be EXT4 and not EXT3 like the normal Clockworkmod recoveries.
- The UI of these recoveries are heavily modified and themed. Currently I have three versions, Green, Blue, and Red. I will be taking request on more themes.
Once this is confirmed working or not I will build and allow testing of more themed versions

oh yeah accually I wasn't compiling my own kernels back then like I am now I was just using pershoot's kernel lol. So far everything seems to be working but it's only been tested by one person so far. I'll send you a pm.

Alright I'm building the last blue version now then I should be ready to release these. Thanks to both testers I'll make sure and give you guys credit for taking your time to test these.

Thought I posted this yesterday but cant find it - so reposting
I flashed green hat recovery on Sat night and exhausted everything in the recovery menu except for sdcard partitioning -- could not find a bug anywhere. Everything worked at par for the course.
I especially liked how when the phone is off - and charging -- green hat recovery turns on -- so when Im done charging I can start off in recovery... (this was a "bug" with the older Clockwork Recoveries (beginning of v4-5) but I never saw it as a bug -- but as a feature. I hope you dont fix this!)
used all tools in reboot, confirmed this works directly from ROM Manager, did nandroid backup and restore to older build made last year, did advanced restore, bla bla - everything. No issues.
Well, let me know if you need more testing.

Awsome thanks IDK why the versions on my device still use charging while off like the newer recoveries do. Oh well I think I noticed koush mention a bug about this for G2 and how HTC charging while off is already a method that is not not compatible with the newer recoveries. Like you said the phone will still charge in recovery and reboot options are there but just kinda sucks if the led light doesn't show to tell you how charged it is.

Doesnt matter -- dont fixit please! Im trying to figure out how to make this happen on my Kindle Fire as well --- everyone calls it a bug... but its not a bug!

WOW I cant wait for this to be out! Great job! I have been following your work for a while now and am all excited! I like the idea of being able to wipe cache/data/sd ext.

Aw ok, well I guess I'll go ahead and release with the info that htc charging does not work anymore but this will still work great with rom manager. Thanks for the feedback I'll work on uploading later on today on rom manager.

[HELP] 3G restarts my phone

Hi everyone,
I recently flashed cyanogenmod 7.2 onto my HTC Wildfire and it kept restarting for an odd reason, I restored back to SplashMOD and it still has the same problem. I've turned 3G off and it seems to be fine, its just when I turn 3G on
Any help?

Maybe you overclocked your phone at 768MHz.... it isn't very stable

It says my phone needs to be GSM (I'm guessing that means unlocked) which my phone isn't. What is a good radio to flash? and do i need to do it before i flash a rom?

GSM means that it's a standard phone that works in any country. ie: it's not CDMA, which mean that it doesn't need special frequencies from the service provider.

like lo2ay already said GSM ("Global System for Mobile Communications") doesn''t mean "unlocked" and has nothing to do wih it.
But in case you didn't unlock your phone - and I'm not getting you totally wrong - this brings up a much more interesting question: if you don't have an unlocked Wildfire - how the hell have you been able to flash a ROM anyway? I'd guess one of the following might match your situation:
- you have a different phone (not a HTC Wildfire)
- you just thought you're going to flash a ROM but did something else instead
- your Wildfire is unlocked and you don't know it
Are you really serious about what you've done? What tutorial/how to did you use to flash Cyanogen Mod?
And yes: if your phone is a Wildfire (buzz) and not unlocked/rooted you can't flash a new radio because you can't flash anything custom...

I think he was meaning sim unlocked?

oh yes - I've been thinking about that for a few seconds - you're probably right.
Regarding my own little problem which I've also discussed a bit desperately here: may I ask you what you would try next with all your Wildfire experience? (I've never been really convinced that the V6 Supercharger or 3G Turbocharger scripts could be involved but after reading that a few people got that bootloop prob with 3G after messing around with them it looked so obvious).
I feared to investigate any further because I had the feeling it could cost a lot of time... so when I went on to solve the problem it turned out I was right with that: I've flashed the 7.2 stable today - with doing just a dalvik and system wipe without success and then a complete wipe - no success either.
I fear to revert back to a true stock rom (including s-off again) as it took me a lot of sweat to do that initially (that has been just in the middle of transformation from revolutionary to alpha rev with all the goldcard stuff etc.) - too make it short: what would you do?
Thx in advance for some input on this...

I would first check my mtd size settings! If you dont know what custom mtds are it means your not using them,if you are using them then you must remember to flash the bravo boot file straight after your rom flash before booting! If this is not your issue then i would do a clean flash of a rom. I.e wipe system, cache, dalvik cache, go into mount and storage and do all available wipes NOT sdcard, then flash the rom. If all fails then i would 1st try a reflash of a custom recovery and repeat previous clean rom flash. Now if it still didnt play ball i would scream at it, throw it at a wall then regret that step and move on to ruu.exe and start afresh lol.
On the v6 etc etc issue. Ive publicly said many times how much i hate this script and others like it! But this is only my opinion as i have had issues using them too in the early days. An app i use still to this day which gives you complete control over the effects of these scripts is autokiller memory optimizer. I will link to a thread i made some time ago to explain this app which can be found on the market.
This again can and most likely will be argued or debated as to its function but in my experience its a must have when used correct.

Sorry i only just noticed your link so my advice was for current op issue. However yes i believe these scripts are the cause im afraid. Still i would give you the same advice again as above or try a clean sense rom flash.
You can get safe ruu flashable zips too so as not to lose security or root so try these before going the exe route.
Hope you get a fix.

LOL yes but thx for the reminder anyway

Now it's getting really weird... I've just put in a different SIM (out of the family) - different carrier. (the idea came to my mind somehow). Looks like the phone doesn't reboot with that.
If that's true and not by accident - what does that mean now? Usually I'd think about the radio - but I've completely wiped the phone (including a sense install in between) - could this be a hardware problem?
I guess I'll do the RUU thingy anyway. So I'll start to gather information on that.
If anyone has a good suggestion to do that as easy and quick as possible - I'd appreciate any suggestions.
--- EDIT ---
If someone has a suggestion for a small Sense ROM (yeah I know) I'd prefer to do that first...
