Stock Version and Themed version RAFDROID REVOLUTION videos by kevinniven
This is a personal build made for my self, based on DESIRE HD. Is 99% stock, % battery indicator and some animations/icons. It's fully DEODEXED so you can theme it as you want. Also if it's a bit slower then ODEXED builds. I tried also to keep most of the apps, wallpapers and other stuff in it. But most important it uses to put all your DATA folder on EXT partition on your SD CARDso you dont have to worry about storage limite on LEO512

=== INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS (CWR) - NEW USERS WITHOUT CWR INSTALLED OR WITH CWR BUT USING ANOTHER ROM ===
This process will erase everything on your nand. So, if you are already using a previous rom, backup everything!
- Suggested but not mandatory: Download PANASONIC SD FORMATTER and use it to format your card with SLOW ERASE
- Prepare your SD Card with first partition primary FAT32. This is where you will put all your stuff like music, videos... so make it bigger as possible less the space for the EXT partition. Ext partition must be EXT3 or EXT4, primary, and must be the second partition of the SD card, just after the FAT32. The EXT partition will be seen from your phone as it's internal storage memory. Maximum 1gb EXT is suggested, bigger one can cause issues. Refer to this for an help to make the partitions http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=10654666#post10654666(only ext3) or use this for ext 4 http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=905089
- After the partition are created, you need to flash MAGDLR 1.13 and the 400mb Recovery for MAGDLR that you can find here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=898913 follow the instructions on the thread
- Download the FULL RAFDROID PACKAGE and copy the entire zip (not extracted!) on the SD CARD root.
- Put the SD CARD in your phone and power it on and go in the MAGDLR menu (hold the power key while powering up)
- Select BOOT AD RECOVERY
- Click on INSTALL ZIP FROM SD CARD and then CHOOSE ZIP FROM SD CARD
- Select the FULL_RAFDROID_HD_EXT_*r*.zip that you downloaded before.
- Select "Yes - Install........" and wait for installation then Go back with power button and select REBOOT SYSTEM NOW
- First boot can take up to 20 minutes. If you are stuck on white screen with HTC logo just wait. If you hear boot sound more than one time, you had a bootlop and something has gone wrong. Maybe your partitions are not setted up properly. Delete everything, reformat your SD card and try again.
- When you see the lockscreen, give at least 5 minutes to settle. Then do all your settings and then reboot again
- Go in Settings -> Audio -> Disable "audible touch tones". This will avoid robo voice and phone freezes.
- Read the FAQ on post #2
- Enjoy.
- Remember: if you want to avoid Data Corruption always choose SHUT OFF and not reboot!
TOO DIFFICULT?? HERE A VIDEO TUTORIAL!!! BY ACLERIGO!
=== INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS (CWR) - UPGRADING FROM A PREVIOUS RAFDROID VERSION WITH ALREADY CWR INSTALLED===
Since 4.0 is completely new base and a lot of bugs are fixed, I suggest to backup your apps with Titanium Backup or another backup app, format your ext3 partition and start fresh. If you prefer to keep your old data partition please understand that you could have bugs, instability, slowness, and some bugs that are fixed will remain not fixed for you.
It's your choiche, if you still want to keep your data partition, instructions below:
- Make a NANDROID Backup
- Make a NANDROID Backup... go on!
- Make a NANDROID Backup... really!!!!
- did you made the backup?
- You need MAGDLR 1.13 and recovery 1.3. If you have previous version, you need to flash MAGDLR 1.13 and the 400mb Recovery for MAGDLR that you can find here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=898913 follow the instructions on the thread. Old CWR is NOT compatible!!!
- Download the RAFDROID_HD_EXT zip and save it to your SD card root
- Enter in MAGDLR by powering up the phone and holding power botton until MAGLDR screen appears and Enter in CWR Recovery by selecting BOOT AD RECOVERY
- Select INSTALL ZIP FROM SD CARD then CHOOSE ZIP FROM SD CARD
- Select the RAFDROID_HD_EXT zip that you downloaded before.
- Select "Yes - Install........" and wait for installation
- Go back with power button and select REBOOT SYSTEM NOW
- First boot can take up to 20 minutes. If you are stuck on white screen with HTC logo just wait. If you hear boot sound more than one time, you had a bootlop and something has gone wrong. Maybe your partitions are not setted up properly. Delete everything, reformat your SD card and try again.
- When you see the lockscreen, give at least 5 minutes to settle then do all your settings and then reboot again
- Go in Settings -> Audio -> Disable "audible touch tones". This will avoid robo voice and phone freezes.
- Read the FAQs on post #2
- Enjoy.
- Remember: if you want to avoid Data Corruption always choose SHUT OFF and not reboot!
============ CONFIG.TXT ============
Used some ideas and code bits from Dandiest's init script.
You can create a config.txt file on the root of your sdcard to configure some things at boot.
Actually you can configure the following options
gps_zone=[your country]
check http://www.pool.ntp.org/zone/@ for country codes (example: it for italy, us for usa.. and so on...)
sd_boost
sd_boost=0 -> sd bost not active (default)
sd_boost=1 -> sd boost active
* SD Boost deactivate journal on your ext partition. This gives you more performance but if you not shut off your phone properly or you pull out the battery while running you can have data loss or data corruption. If you activate sd boost, then you want to go back to norma sd usage, just change the config.txt back to sd_boost=0 and journal will be recreated on next boot *
ppp_mode=[1 or 0]
1 to enable PPP
0 to enable RMNET.
Default is 0
RMNET is more stable and less battery hungry, but in some countries/carries PPP can work better.
old_light_driver=[1 or 0]
0 to use the new light driver (working notification leds, button backlight control)
1 to use the old light driver (no notifications leds, buttons will go off after 10 seconds)
default is 0
auto_btn_backlight=[1 or 0]
1 to have the buttons backlight going off/on with the screen
0 to have the buttons backlight going off after 10 seconds from when the last button is pressed
default is 1
this work only if old_light_driver=0
wifi_mac_change=[1 or 0]
1 tells the system that you will need to change the wifi mac address to a custom one
0 tells the system that you will use the wifi mac address based on device hardware
custom_wifi_mac=yy:yy:yy:yy:yy:yy
here you have to write the wifi mac address you want.
This is needed, and will work, only if you specify wifi_mac_change=1
If you not write any mac address here, the default 00:11:22:33:44:55 will be used
Just an example on how a file could look:
Code:gps_zone=it ppp_mode=0 old_light_driver=0 auto_btn_backlight=1
The init script will also create an init.log file on your sd card at every boot. This will help you and me with debugging if something not works fine. If you have issues please always post your init.log file when reporting your problem.
============ KERNEL ============
You can refer to my kernel thread for updates, changelog, and comments
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=940823
4.X is bigger then 2.X so you need at least a 390mb system partition. If you flashed the recovery with 360mb modded file, you have to reflash it again, or you will have issues at boot!!!
Remember: if you want to avoid Data Corruption always choose SHUT OFF and not reboot!
Full zip:
ALWAYS MAKE A CWR NANDROID BACKUP BEFORE FLASHING!
FRESH INSTALL RECCOMENDED (format ext3 partition or factory reset nand)
