Method #2
2.b Put device in recovery mode and start msusb and with adb or adb-windows
-----adb shell mount /sdcard/
-----adb push romFILE.zip /sdcard/

This method allways pushed properly onto sdcard no read errors


3. Choose "Flash zip from sdcard" and choose the zip you just copied.

4. Wipe data+cache before rebooting if it the first install of this ROM. When upgrading with future updates you propably won't need to wipe again.

OR

Download Superboot: DOWNLOAD (MediaFire) / MIRROR (ROMraid / CoBlitz) and extract to a directory
Enter recovery mode by turning your device on while holding down 'volume down' and 'End call' (red) then powering on your device.

Phone will startup, seems to hang and eventually reboots itself.

Download AmonRA Recovery 1.6.2: DOWNLOAD (MediaFire Pro) / MIRROR (CoBlitz / ROMraid) and extract the zip file
Enter recovery mode by turning your device on while holding down 'volume down' and 'End call' (red) then powering on your device.

awesome!

I see that you are trying to integrate the honeycomb player, which would be cool, but... wouldn't that require some kind of 3D acceleration? (like the 3DGallery app, which is kinda slow on this phone)


(also, if we are talking about "honeycombing" the phone...some more honeycomb stuff that could get ported to 240*320)

Thx I will check what can I do, 3D Gallery was slower on 2.1, now much better, but not the best

Hi Bitye,

This ROM looks very promising, looks like you are integrating some great components, I will keep an eye on this and test once the screen issues and D-pad issues are resolved. In the mean time do you think you could put some screenshots or a video link up for us to have a look?

Cheers

i will upload some screens later, now I am at work.

Hajrá, eddig ez a legjobban működő ROM!

i can regular install this rom, and reboot after install. Then we know it comes the setup wizard. Well done, after some steps if I touch forward before setup complete, it comes an error message. After them the screen keeps black. What to do??? I think this rom is still buggy
