Root [ROM]{MS840} Number_Two v1.8 ~ ZVA

Strange.. I managed to boot into CWM just fine, I am running the proper firmware (ZVA), I wiped the data/cache/dalvik, and installed from the .zip (rom ver 1.8) but when i go to reboot, it just reboots right back into CWM, instead of the rom. Anyone have any tips??
 
I got some unexpected reboot using BT...phone starts to become laggy and slow then reboot. It happened like 3-4 times.

Second thing with BT, it seems the BT gets stuck to one device and won't release the BT connection to another device without a reboot... any idea?
 
This has probably been asked before (and I know that I posted this in the other rom threads but I just wanted to make sure everyone saw it) but is the developer of this ROM or any of the other roms thinking about making it work with the vv3 baseband sw version? I really loved this ROM (and the others) but I had to get a replacement phone yesterday and it came with vv4. I downgraded it to vv3 and I finally got it rooted but now I can't use any of the current roms and just wondering if it's over for this phone or if anyone has something they are working on. BTW vv3 seems to be a ton better than the zva sw version. Way better battery and way better signal/data. Thanks a ton guys and devs!
 
LDrifta is the one to ask about #2. He got himself a GS3 and has been hanging with the cool crowd LOL.. And no, it's not over yet..? We are close to having a fully functional Jellybean, foo... :D :D

What model Connect do you have, the MS840 or the MS840V?

what is the major difference in zva to vv3? so I know wat can be safely ported over ;)

Well I know the battery lasts longer and it picks up signals better it doesn't get as hot and the quick memo which is really pretty cool (great idea). Other than that I have no idea. :)

I'm improvising with a new Huawei lol. Got tired of GB and needed something cheap with at least ICS :D

I figured I'd use JB when you got it working and we all pay you and PG for your hard work, but letting it go is a possibility too :) if you really want it that bad :D:D
 
ooo hahaha nahh man I don't want to be responsible for breaking it if yu wanted it back lol, and I couldn't promise a working jb rom.. pg has much greater odds getting something like that going :D I am just willing to try and contribute.. figured having a phone to test things on will make progress increase haha don't sell it if you want to keep it.. but if yu want to sell it for a fair price than ill consider it ;)

Dangit LOL!! Well I suppose I can bring the Connect to you, and you can make me an offer. It's been pretty well taken care of, it has all of the packaging plus an extended battery, USB port is still nice and tight too :)

Throw a PM my way if you're interested, gotta catch some shuteye ;)
