Root [ROM] Myn's Warm Z

ok, just downloaded a fresh zip file, wiped both parts 3x, to no avail... i got the install failed message again. dunno what im doing wrong:( restoring right this moment, so i guess ill await suggestions from those of you in the know and perhaps bored enough to reply :D

Hey gang. ...
Anyways, I read through this thread and see a few things that I'd like to address/confirm. ...

Are you using THIS LINK when downloading? Are you on Clockwork Recovery 3.xx? Either downgrade or flash amon_RA (recommended). Bad downloads and wrong recoveries are two of the main problems flashing roms other than wiping. But you wiped, try one of these other solutions.

tommytomatoe, thanks for the great post!

youdoofus...In addition to what tommytomatoe said for you... I bet you didn't Toggle verification off Give this a try.
 
Sounds great :) ill give that a shot. Anyone got the link to amon ra? i have clockwork and am at work, so a link i could email to myself n download to my phone would be awesome!! Thanks in advance ;)

using amon ra, flash was perfect!! thanks a ton guys (and/or gals) you forumites are simply the best!!
 
Had to revert back to rls5 for several reasons. 1) People wouldn't even open..force closed immediately upon opening people or trying to view a contact other ways. 2) The Handcent problem with having to split texts was just annoying to my OCD haha. I like seeing messages in one bubble.. 3) Once i uninstalled handcent, stock messaging would send texts but pop up every time telling me it didn't send bc the network wasn't available (but people still got the texts, again, just annoying). I've read a lot on here about people randomly losing 3G. 4) I didn't notice any major difference in battery life or speed. 5) If you rotate your phone on the home screen, it works beautifully, but also reverts back to the stock clock/weather widget.

I love everything else with this rom, it keeps getting better and better, and I'm determined to stick with warm. If someone can give me fixes to 1,2,3, and 5, I would gladly consider flashing again :)
 
6) No LED without using handcent.
7) Restarts maybe once a day in the middle of usage. Haven't seen any fixes for that on here yet.
 
Just wanted to post this as known bug:

When you open your camera and set it to the rear/main camera. Then take a picture and try to delete it or share it while still in the cam it will cause a FC. To get around this issue just delete or share the picture from within the photo gallery and not cam.
 
Ok, so 2 days back on RLS5.... I can't help it. I'm going back to Warm Z. The ROM was that good problems and all.

I hear ya. Bugs and all I just can't leave. My gf was having problems with her phone and Warm Z. We flashed Mik's last night which she liked but she had me restore a backup of Warm Z for her after a few hours, lol.
 
Time vampire....just don't have the time. Will have to come back on the next release. This is just too much work. I have wasted hours and am going back to a nandroid. Anyway, thanks to all of the devs for their hard work. Myn and his team are top notch. I will keep an eye out and maybe give this one another try at a later date. Just couldn't get it to work right.
 
i think most of your issues needs...

1. good wipe... clean the mem out completely... find tommytomatoe's suggestions above.
2. down load the right file.. maybe there is a bad file out there.
3. dont use clockwork...

this ROM only know issues: 4G, HDMI, and flacky HTCsense.com connections.

I got 'er to work, looked great, worked fine (with the exception of the front facing cam on the basic camera app that comes with it, and of course 4g) but i noticed a significant drop in available megs of memory(about 100-125 when i kill al apps). I usually run about 150 or so, capping out at 225 when i kill all apps. What gives there? Is this a normal amnt of free memory on the standard rom? am i not getting the proper amnt of mem i should be getting on warm z? and can i delete clockwork mod now that i have amon ra? and if i delete the clockwork, i'd of course keep the backups ive made with it :) thanks again forum, you guys are all rockstars!!

Flash this fix. It will allow you to switch between the main and ff camera:

I also added the link for the ffc fix in the OP
 
i just get a FFC app from market to use... dont need to do the fix.

i have read.. if you do the camera fix.. it also comes with warnings not to do .. or cant do things....
is this still true?????

I think I read somewhere that you can't change the resolution or something to that extent. I have the fix installed on my phone and can switch between the ff and main cam without issue. I can also take take pics with both cams. I don't change the resolution on my cam so not an issue for me.
 
Warm Z is the best rom ever. Thanks to all of you for your tips, pointers and suggestions in this thread.
 
One thing I noticed about this rom is that it requires a reboot every so often to prevent it from lagging or locking up. It helps clear the memory. For some reason I think the memory management of this rom isn't what it should be.

i agree... there is something a miss..

it happened to me today at around 4pm.. i let it be.. see what it would do...

after 30 mins.. it started to behave again. but not sure if there is some residual lag.

I might have to reboot by .. battery pull.

wonder if a .. force close on Sense will help?
 
I still think that Warm TwoPointTwo is better, but that's just because it's had time to evolve, and because it has a lot of mods. But I just need to give Warm Z some time...

I haven't tried the latest Warm 2.2 but I agree with you. Hopefully after a few releases the bugs in Z get worked out.
 
I dunno, I don't have any bugs. My notification LED still flashes normally, I have no FC's. The only problems are the FFC, 4G, and HDMI. And I never use any of those, so this rom rocks. :cool:

For those interested:

Aamikam has come out with his version of the WarmZ port:

[ROM] - [MikRoms] - [03/06/2011] - MikZ v1.0 - ReEngineered Sense 2.0 - Zzz... Zzz... - xda-developers

I like the blue in that rom better than the green in WarmZ, but I also like the darkness/blackness of WarmZ over the black/white of MikZ. :(
 
I've wiped and flashed this a few times now, and the LED still doesn't work for text notifications. If you use Handcent, LED works fine. If you uninstall it, or completely wipe and start fresh without Handcent, LED doesn't work with stock app. Any ideas why or how to fix this?
 
^^^^

i just dont know what to say...
go find the wimax led mod..
it will make the hidden wimax led flash when you get a text.
 
After all the brains i picked and questions i asked, i ended up going with Koni's ELITE Series II LoL worked awesome the first time, and is super fast!!!! Now i just need to figure out how to do a custom boot animation, and ill be all set :)
