My name is Johnathan and u approve thus message..GUYS, I NEED TO MENTION SOMETHING:
This thread is about MikFroyo. I know we all tend to dance around the edges on that a bit because we feel comfortable and like to share with our friends here; however, there is OT (off-topic) and then there is and SOT (severely off-topic).
As the #1 thread on xda, we now have a rep to maintain. Lots of new people are coming here after hearing good things about MikFroyo and want answers without reading too much fluff about our personal lives.
For that reason, I request that everyone keep the REALLY personal stuff to Private Messages.
Here's the test to use. Before posting, ask yourself, "What does this have to do with MikFroyo?" If the answer is "Nothing", then consider PM'ing your friends here about it rather than posting in the public forum.
Thanks
Hopefully someone can help me...I'm attempting to flash the MikFroyo 4.5 Beta and everytime I try, it seems to freeze up during the flashing phase. In RA-Recovery, progress bar doesn't fill up with the green color like it usually does. And if it doesn't freeze up there, it'll boot but freeze up at the white Sprint page. I've used the Calkin's Format Zip to wipe everything and that doesn't seem to fix and I tried wiping everything 3x's and it still freezes up at one of those stages.
Do anyone have any ideas how I can get this to flash?

The bar doesn't go all the way. Just let it do it's thing. Before you know it, you'll be back into RA, asking you to reboot. Hit reboot, and again let it do it's thing again.
Like the rest of us, you'll be happy you did.
If for some reason, it still hangs on you, try re-downloading the file and run through the flashing process again.
Hello,
I was jw if you have like a minimalistic word icon dock..those that make sense?lol, this is my first time checking them out.. sorry. Thanx for the help
G-Bread MikFroyo 4.4
When the bar did move, it seemed to flash correctly. But that's when it would just hang on the white "Sprint 4G" page.
And when the bar didn't move it seemed as though it just locked up while flashing the rom.
I'm going to re-download the beta and give another it twirl.
Is there any other differences between 4.4 and 4.5 other than speed, that you've noticed?
That's the one I still use. It does that from time to time, more so when you use a format_all.zip to wipe. It is also said to flash a kernel of your choice right after the Rom before rebooting.
