not sure if this helps anyone, but after hearing that the market issue might be due to the way the sd card was partitioned, i replaced my sd card with spare sd card i had and had no partitions on it except a fat32 partition. i re-downloaded the file and flashed and ended up in a boot loop.

i was able to successful flash with my original setup which has an ext3 partition.

wish i knew which hw version i have, but do know how to find out.:eek:

Did a full wipe, cache and delvik wipe 3x, then kings mod format all. Booted after a few minutes. Running very nicely. Although market FC's. Tried a marketfix.zip that was posted a few days ago, didn't work. I have hw0004.

Tried the suggestion above and no go. Still boot loop at splash screen. Only thing I have seen that someone had different than me was my sdcard isn't partitioned. I just have the fat32. Could this he the issue?

I am partitioned with ext3 and running hw0004, booted fine for me just market fc's. Wiped everything except SD card 4 times. Do not use any format all zip (never had an issue with just wiping)
Tried everything I could think of for market fix, cleared data and cache, rebooted, installed different market rebooted all to no resolution

I thought I fixed market but obviously didnt. For market you need to run terminal and type

mkdir /cache/download

It keeps fc'ing beacuse it dont have a pace for the cache to go.

Heres Terminal since you cant access market. haha.

Terminal - Download

Thought I'd try out so...HW003. Put rom and terminal app on sd...wiped, flashed, booted, then did mkdir /cache/download. Playstore worked fine. Restored stuff with TBup...no problems. Very smooth and stable as well. Tried with MIUI, Nova, and ADW Launcher EX...all played nice. Any plans to add extended settings?

Good work :)

To be able to create the download cache directory, I had to (from the terminal) run: su -

(And to do THAT, I had to enable root.) Then I was able to mkdir /cache/download and the Play Store works.

Right thing to do? Don't know, but it worked.

OK so to let everyone know i believe the issue people are having with the boot loop at the splash screen is because they dont have the sdcard partitioned. i tried another card i have and partitioned it like this: 32 swap 1024 ext3 and the rest fat32, and it booted first try. still i wiped 3x.

Wait what?! OMG! Brown is killing it. Im at work, but Ill d/l this when I get home! Any other impressions?!

After the market fix, the ROM is rock solid (assuming you can get it to work with your hardware). The stock MIUI launcher is laggy (appears not to suppose HWA) but when using APEX or NOVA launcher you can see the HWA.

USB does not appear to natively work, but using Multi Mount or any USB mounting program appears to fix that issue. Camera appears to work fine, but the camcorder is a bit flaky (need to remove battery after exiting camcorder).

Cannot comment on battery life since it has only been a day, but it appears that the GB have better battery life.

Edit: The ROM does appear to have USB Mass Storage Toggle, but did not show up when connecting it up to the my computer the first time around. It showed up the 2nd time I plugged the phone to the computer.

Can confirm this. Was getting bootloops, so I partitioned the SD and blammo, booted first try :D

    Flash optional kernel ONLY after you have your a2sd setup and confirmed working

    *Not Working*

    - Market's Not currently working (will fix in the morning)
    - For Market you need to run terminal and type mkdir /cache/download Terminal-Download
    - Camera's kinda sketchy. (when using dont let it idle on camera screen, and
    when finished completely back out of it.)
    - Im sure their's more, let me know (logcat plz)


    Notice

    * On first boot it should reboot, maybe twice. Mine froze on second boot, and I just had to pull batt and restart.
    * FIRST BOOT MIGHT TAKE A WHILE, BUT IT WILL EVENTUALLY BOOT.
    * If a2sd is not showing up for you, go into terminal and type -a2sd install- then you should be good from their

    Flashed flawlessly using Amon Ra style v3.11 i flashed the rom then Mason kernel then vipermod. But i believe i downloaded the wrong one because playstore just FC so i guess mediafire one is the one i should download and not devhost version

    just download the play store apk from the "internet" and install it like any other apk.
