I flashed it EXACTLY as I flash any other rom.
reboot to recovery. select install from sd card select the rom click go.
uprading from 2.8 to 3.0 nothing else special needs to be done.
once that is done I run the bare rom converter (modded to leave golauncher)
done. exactly as per instructions. VERY unstable. the VERY FIRST time a calukin rom was unstable for me. previous to 3.0 his roms have been 100% ROCK SOLID awesome.
OK figured maybe something did not go right or maybe something I installed is incompatible with some change in 3.0
SO I reboot into recovery again this time I go all in I run the format all.
then run the install and do NOT run bare rom converter just format all and 3.0
same instability.
I run the same process again this time install NO third party apps save whats included with the rom.
Still unstable.
I reboot into recovery. format all install 2.8
Rock Solid Stable. zero issues at all.
to me this means "something" was hinky with 3.0 for some reason. not saying its calukin that screwed up (afterall this is a rom HE RUNS on his own phone so clearly it works for him)
but what more can I do after multiple format alls using his own utilities? not sure.
no big deal for me. I go back to 2.8 (no special reason its just the last one I had installed) and will wait for the next revision and see if that takes care of the glitches.
3.0 was the FIRST time I had GPS issues. at first gps was solid no issues instant lock. after about 12 hours it just got worse and worse till the next day when it REFUSE flat out to get a lock. it would see a "single" sat and not strong enough to lock.
I thought maybe it was the new FC24 modem so I flashed back to the previous modem NO effect.
when I flashed back to 2.8 (with fc 24) instant lock zero issues. its been days still zero issues on 2.8.
again. no big deal. for "whatever" reason 3.0 does not jive with my hardware. will just wait for the next one.
I really don't understand all the people that have nothing but bad feedback for this ROM... People there is nothing wrong with 3.0. On the contrerary it is smooth and fast as fu**... if you guys are experiencing lags, errors, crashes, etc. Then YOU guys are doing something wrong... either you guys are not wiping something or just fu**ing up one way or another... if YOU guys don't know how to flash properly go to YouTube search for QBKING77 and check out his videos.. he shows ALOT of tutorials... and if that doesn't help then get the fu** out of deving your android phone and go get an iPhone you should fit right in... guys but seriously Calks is one of the best devs here in the E4GT forum.. instead of crying like pussys try to figure out what went wrong.. BTW I highly recommend fresh installs for all roms and PLEASE if your one of those people that just blame the devs for your own mistakes then please stop being lazy and create your own ROM I'm pretty sure yours should rock.. hahahaha....
