I followed all of the instructions on this page and the JacHero2.5 thread but after adding the new spl and having my phone work properly I tried to intall the JacHero rom and via update.zip and after attempting my phone only shows the android boot screen then the htc screen and then keeps repeating them.

did you partition your SD Card? Also make sure you WIPE and FLASH

If you did partition try using the "fix ext filesystem" in cyanogen's recovery

Edit: Added how to check what class your sd card is

no it wont brick your phone. You can go back and forth between hero and cupcake all you want

But anything pre-cupcake will brick your phone, right (IE if for some bizarre reason you want to go back to rc29 or something, root and then try another rom )

[Q] Should i use swapper? What is a good setting to use

[A] Yes

Perfect Setting:
Swap Location: /system/sd/swapper.swp
Swap Space: 32mb
Swapinness: 10 or 60 which ever works better for you

Note: Swapper will kill your SDCard faster then normal

Your swap location is different. I've read somewhere else is that it should be:

/system/sd/swap.swp (you have swapper)

o my bad lol. Havent touched my swapper settings in a while ill fix that in a sec. Thanks for noticing!

It doesn't matter what the file is called...It can be called herosucksbecauseineedtooptimizeitsomuch.swp if you want

nephron · Jul 12, 2009

lol ya it doesnt matter but w/e. I stopped using the hero roms and decided to wait till JacHero 3.0 to start flashing again. There are way too many updates and its kind of annoying to keep flashing and testing.

I hope not, but maybe you need to apply for membership here
It could be that the new spl is a killer, literally

Hi guys,

I have followed the instructions under:

[Q] Do i NEED the new Radio and SPL?

[A] Yes, you MUST have the new Radio AND SPL

However now when i turn my phone on, i just get the G1 with t-mobile written underneath screen up. I cannot do anything from here such as getting to recovery mode etc.

HELP!!!!

Ok im trying to do the apps2sd part but its not doing it correctly. I followed the instructions here and on theunlockr but its not working..

Im running the hero rom currently is that the problem? should i reflash JF then do the apps2sd, then flash the hero rom?

phantasm714 · Jul 15, 2009

What do you mean by "doing the apps2sd part"? the Hero roms automatically put your apps on the ext2/ext3 partition of your SD card. if your card is partitioned correctly (FAT32 partition 1st, ext2 or 3 partition 2nd) then you need do nothing else as far as 'apps2sd'.
