it stays zipped.
you flash the zip in recovery

sounds like a CWM queef.
does CWM on these phones have logs? if so id look at them...or get something that can record the issues, and try to repeat the problem again...
Could also be your card going on you...
usually, its a bad program running...

just reboot again, it should go away...
i have yet to find out what exactly causes it, but its happened to me before for absolutely no reason.

Posing in this thread along with the main sticky:
Two things that CTmod doesn't do right, I might just write and put an APK up to take care of both of these, and it is welcome to be included in the next CTmod version. The problems are:
1: Settings does not remember the timezone that I set manually. It also does not seem to be able to set it automatically either. it constantly reverts to GMT.
2: Does not remember that WiFi is on between reboots, and it should, reguardless of the airplane mode setting. My Prevail is deactivated (no service) but I use it for VoIP.
Solution:
I'll write an APK that addresses both of these problems in the next day or so, that will have the ability to force set the timezone and will have the ability to turn on, off, or leave alone WiFi at boot time.

General answer is yes, CTMod has data throttling disabled on the phone, however, I believe, Boost is still able to throttle your data if you use too much !
( not good in explaining, but I think there is a "data throttle file" on the phone when it's shipped. This file is removed in CTMod ! )
Maybe someone else can explain it more technical !!!

1. put this on build.prop
persist.sys.timezone=America/Los_Angeles
that's mine. edit depending on timezones
2. Wefi got option to turn on Wi-Fi and if nothing to connect to shut off and try again later

This phone doesn't have a proxy sensor, so i doubt anyone else is having a problem with it..... It's just non-existent.....
Just press power button once the call connects... Problem solved

1: Modifying build.prop is not friendly...
I rather make it as friendly as possible, and the idea is that it can work for any phone that is not in service and that reverts all the time. 2: The idea is that it's in airplane mode... There is no service, and the phone is not active on any cell plan. I do not want to connect to the cell network _ever_. Wefi I don't think will fit the bill as it may obey airplane mode?
I don't know, and don't care to find out to be honest.
In any case, it's not a big deal for me to write this app. It will not contain ads, or spam the phone with garbage links, or any other annoyances, and will be very compact. I am also going to release the source.
I've fixed other stupid issues similar to this for tablets that lack a contacts icon by doing the same thing-- writing a proper friendly app that launches the contacts/people as an intent, and done. If you would like to see the little article, it's over here: Tablet missing a Contacts Icon? I have a fix! - SlateDroid.com and does this in a 5.8KB APK, v.s. bloatware found anywhere else.
Bloateware is a terrible problem, which is what we really need to avoid on a device with such limited space. Yes, I am aware of the hacks to get more /data area via SD card, but I really don't care to do that since I swap SD cards too often, thus that solution does not fit for me--- in which case I would not care about bloatware.Additionally, I did remove other bloat from CTmod after I installed it, since I don't use it for anything other than VoIP on WiFi, streaming audio at home, and as a music player at work.
I also ditched the horrible fake chrome and installed Dolphin Browser into the ROM. For the other things that one would do with an android device, such as email, web and games, I got tablets for those activities, since a larger display makes sense there.
In any case, I will post here when I write it with a link. Expect it very soon.
1. put in local.prop instead
2. o I see. airplane mode Wi-Fi is asp you want then. it enables Bluetooth and Wi-Fi use in airplane mode and you can turn on airplane mode without shutting Wi-Fi down. just enable all in the app preferences and uninstall. settings will stick

Go to Settings>>>Applications>>>>Manage Applications>>>> Switch to "ALL" tab and look for Google Play Store and Google Framework and clear cache and Data", then reboot and sign into your account and leave your devices for 15 - 20 minutes ( to refresh the settings ).... Then it should work.'
For the other issue : What did you do ? Did you install another theme, another background, etc. ? If so, try uninstalling it.... Hard to tell without having more info....

Install Google search from the removed apps.zip in the first post. There are instructions on how to do so in the same post you dl them from
I did change the background to a picture from Google images and then went in and deleted it from my pictures but it stayed as the wallpaper and didn't revert back to the CT mod.
