Alright, judging by the positive responses I will assume I am one of the few people having this problem. When flashing this ROM everything goes smoothly, the first time it boots up, everything goes smoothly. When I try to change the wallpaper it will take me back to the homescreen and nothing changes. When I reboot my phone the home, phone, and search button don't work. Also, all of the widgets have switched screens. If anyone is experiencing similar issues please let me know.

Ok so I think I may have found a solution to the youtube problem I had. Using astro I copied the youtube apk from system/app and put in on my sd card, just right there in the main directory. then I long pressed the app that was still in the system/app folder and chose edit-delete. Then I opened the Think Free office app, installed the youtube.apk file that I copied onto my sd card and it seems to have worked. If it force closes again, I'll try something else, but at least now it opens and is stored on my sd card.

after copying to my SD folder in Astro I received an "error while deleting" when trying to delete the file
 
To everyone that is having problems. What kind of microSD card are you trying to use? I'm telling you, I literally installed Velocity 4 about 6 times when I had my stock microSD. I just could not get it to work. I absolutely, positively do know how to properly install a new ROM, so it wasn't something I was doing. I got a class 6 and tried it again. BAMMMM... 1st try... no problems at all.

It works fine with MT stock class 4 card.
 
I have updated the:
Color Changer​

Now it is menu driven. Executes faster, easier to add new colors to, and what all of you are concerned with: More colors. I added Android Green, Baby Blue, Cyan, Gold and Royal Purple.

If you have more colors that you think should be on the list please let me know.

The zip is recovery flashable. I HAVE ONLY TESTED THIS ON VELOCITY 4, thats what I wrote it for, if you flash this to another rom and FUBAR your install - dont be surprised.

Available for download on mAndroid
 
Ok guys, I know this is a reiteration but it is very important to wipe your EXT partition.

ClockworkMOD recovery DOES NOT have the ability to successfully wipe the partition, so if you have had a2sd in the past with Raptor, V3, or Punisher you WILL need to either clear out the EXT Partition (/dev/block/mmcblk0p2) through a terminal in recovery (which will require mounting the partition manually then performing a rm -R on it) or flashing Amon-RA recovery!

The easiest way to get Amon-RA on is to flash alternate recovery though the Rom Manager, however as many of you are most likely stuck in a boot loop having this problem I WILL try and make a recovery flashable package to reflash your recovery to Amon-RA from clockwork as soon as I get a minute.

Good luck, enjoi!
 
THis is an older version of AMON-RA

but it will work for wiping ext, I dont have time to repack the 1.2.5 this is 1.2.4 mayhap someone can do that for me. This is a zip that you flash in recovery, to change your recovery to amon-ra which will wipe your sd:ext much better.

This is from drellisdee's recovery post
Get it now :)

This version of amon-ra doesnt support directory browsing, so zips will need to be in the "root" of your sdcard (just on the sd not in a subdirectory)

hope this helps!

This means that your recovery did not sucessfully flash, or was lost in some other way. You will need to reflash recovery, the easiest way to do this is by downloading rom manager from the market. I would recommend flashing the alternate recovery (available towards the bottom)

PS. That blue screen is called fastboot, if you have the drivers you can flash recovery directly from there, I believe drellisdee has instructions in his "custom recovery is here" thread

anyway to turn Fastboot off because it comes on every time i power up my phone
 
Thats no good, even if you power on the device without holding down any keys it goes to fastboot? You may need to pull the battery for a second, then try booting again.
 
Okay, i've only had two problems with velocity so far and i need some help. First, i went to watch a clip and it asked me which video player i wanted to use, i clicked droid video player and checked dont ask again. i went to watch the video and it is in black and white, and so is every video i try to watch now. how do i get it back to android video player? also, my nfl mobile won't load past the load screen.
 
I was so afraid it was looping because I had the red eye going like it was v.2 and v.3 had the metal velocity name so I figured v.4 would have something completely new. SO glad that this is running on my phone right now.
 
Trident...Great ROM!

Quick question, since the dalvik cache was moved is there anything different that has to be done to wipe it?
