Previously my phone was on android 2.2 with rom zero installed. OC i couldnt pass stress test for more than 30 mins without rebooting at 748 so i kept it at 726(i think is correct). Now after flashing with this rom on 2.2.1 I tried 748 and stress tested all night. Will be trying even higher tonight!

what rom? are u using now
 
My "problem" was completely unrelated to the rom. I have had the updated rom and honestly b4 the update I was happy with it so again thanks for your time and effort!

I found out after posting though so I didn't post the issue here for no reason lol

I haven't tried other roms yet but I must say that SENSE rom is very nice, and the problem I have is minor.
 
I have been using this ROM for about a week I really love it,No complaints!

But I have a question if anyone can help me out?
I backed-up all of my apps with Titanium Backup before I flashed the ROM.
But after I flashed I went to Titanium Backup(Titanium PRO was on my phone I am thinking it was built into the ROM because I had the free version before the flash) to get my apps back on the phone,they were not in TB,But if I look at the files on my SD card I can see the app files I just can not get them to where I can use them.Can someone please explain to me how to do this?


The problem is because the TB on the Sense Rom is modified and you used the stock TB it doesn't recognize your backup
 
hey JONEIDY when i first try this rom i use to see the puff of smoke when I'd slide open the phone but for some reason now it doesn't matter how many times i uninstall/install it i don't get puff of smoke anymore what am i missing.??thanks

This Sense Rom. Also on a side note if it hasnt been discussed the media player included in this rom, you can get the dsp pack for it and it works on our android phones. Then you can tweak the sound output and even crank it up with the preamp!

Thats not a puff of smoke, it's clouds. Its a part of the weather widget or something, and it changes depending on the weather.
 
I saw the poll and I wanted to share the small problem I have with this ROM. The live wallpaper that I am running will sometimes disappear when I connect the phone to my PC through the USB cable -- I come back to a black wallpaper. Also, *every time* that I reboot the live wallpaper will disappear and the original wallpaper that comes with the ROM comes up.

That's crazy I'm having that same problem on cm7
 
Running into an odd issue....And I seriously doubt it's related to this ROM, but since I'm using this ROM, I figured I'd post this here. Recently I was running out of internal space, and I figured I had really just finally used it all up with symbolic links from a2sd lol (i.e., toooooo many apps). But I wasn't certain, so I figured I'd run a full backup of everything, wipe it clean and start fresh. All went well, except after the first couple reboots, the next reboot it wouldn't boot anymore. It'd just stay on the black LG screen. However, I could manually boot into recovery still, wipe the phone, reinstall the rom, and I was good. This general episode has happened twice now.

Thing is, it doesn't happen until after I've put most of my apps back on, but I haven't found a consistency yet other than that. As long as the ROM is still pretty clean, the phone reboots fine. But as soon as I have a bunch of apps on there it seems (try 60 to 70, and this is with A2SD fully setup, everything running from SD-EXT), the next reboot, it won't anymore, and I'm forced to boot into recovery, wipe all, and reinstall the ROM.

While my apps are all backed up in TiBu to make my life a little easier, what I'm still not looking forward to is installing apps one by one, and/or even uninstalling unwanted apps one by one, to see what's breaking it.

Is it possible that running an SD-EXT (ext3) partition on an older class 2 8 GB sd card would cause this? I got the card for free in a used state from my friend, because I wanted more space and he upgraded his card. Been using it for awhile no problems, but now it's doing this. If the thing's worn out, would it create problems on boot like this?

Is it instead more likely that I've got a bad app, or maybe a bad backup of an app?

I welcome all input, and in the meantime I think I'm going to deal with not customizing things for now, and just make one change at a time, rebooting in between each change to see if it's still good. Unless someone has an awesome answer for me, this is going to be a grueling process. At least I still have an otherwise fully functioning non bricked phone.
 
I can't make a backup. It tells me to do it in adb, which is way too much work
 
If part of your backup is including sd-ext, try getitnowmarketing's recovery. Joneidy's works on everything else, but can't do much with sd-ext except make the partition.
 
But I have made backups of this ROM before using this recovery. . .
 
this might defeating the purpose of the sense rom but is there a way to get rid of the parting clouds when you unlock the phone?? lol

*nevermind...looking a few posts up goes a long way lol
 
ok here is a problem...every time i try to start the camera with this rom my phone reboots...why and how can i fix it??
 
Yeah that's what I thought too...I'm only at 748 though. I'll try bringing it down and see if it works...everything else is fine at 748 though.

Yeah I brought it down to 729 and works fine now lol. I dont want to change the cpu everytime i want to take a picture so i guess i can live with 729.
 
But I have made backups of this ROM before using this recovery. . .

Pardon my late reply. I haven't been as active here lately since I learned how to be a proper engineering student (i.e.....little free time lol). I did too, but I never backed up sd-ext because Joneidy's recovery can't read sd-ext for some reason. which backup option are you choosing??
 
Just wondering, how did you get the sense icons and notification bar on the rom? I'm thinking of making a Touchwiz Themed ROM.
