I'm having probelms after flashing the supra ROM for the second time. It won't let me post on the thread so I don't know where else to post. It all worked perfect the first time, but now after installing about half my apps it won't install anymore because it says there's no room even though I have 603 MB free. Any idea on how to fix this? It worked fine the first time, I switched to another ROM and wanted to switch back, and then I wiped everything and then reinstalled. Tried twice but same problem. Any help would be appreciated.
Have you tried a full wipe before reinstalling?? If you think that you may want to go back to a rom you should do a nand backup before installing the new rom that way all you have to do is restore the nand.
Yeah I did a full wipe
This happened to me too, on the first install. I just flashed a different ROM
Did it work ok when you flashed it back to supra?
I flashed back to Chogardjr3D and it worked fine. I just tried SteelROM, and it did the same thing. I would love to find out why this is happening. Makes no sense to me
me neither
This was happening to me on every ROM I flashed. I think it has something to do with Google syncing back apps after a clean install. I disabled the Google backup and restore and now all seems to be fine. Again, not sure this is the exact problem. Could just be coincidence.

So, before I start this, Yes I was a noob. I didnt make a nandroid backup from when I first rooted my phone and everything worked 100%. I didnt read, and I guess its now biting me in the ass.
The past few months Ive been having issues with Wifi, it continuously says "Unable to scan for networks". I did a factory reset about a week and a half ago and for the first time my wifi was able to connect, however it was dropping out every couple minutes. Wouldnt even stay connected to install any market updates.
I figured that it was something with my dying router(Which Ive since replaced) so I flashed in BAMF to see if I could keep my wifi connection with another rom. Ive been using VirusROM(Love it even though its out od date). I wiped and flashed in BAMF, and restarted. When I restarted, I had no wifi again. Since then, Ive been trying out different ROMS and kernels in hopes that I would find something that would fix it. Nothing did.
After this I figured that I would just do another factory reset and go from there, however with all of the times Ive done the factory resets it never actually gets reset. Does it wipe my info? Yes, but it boots back up with all of the portions of whatever ROM I had installed last. Not reset. So now Ive ended up with two problems.
1. I still have no wifi
2. I cant factory reset so that I can figure out what is going on with my wifi.
Ive wiped Cache/Batt Stats/Davlick and done a factory reset literally six times in a row to hopefully clean EVERYTHING OUT to no avail. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. I hope Im just missing something small because Im still new to android.
Edit: I DO NOT use kernel manager and I dont use ROM manager to flash it in, I flash everything in through recovery.

I'm sure there's an RUU out there that will take your phone back to stock but I honestly doubt that's the issue here. What radio version are you using? Have you tried flashing different radios to see if that would fix it. You can find a list here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1045081. Also what ROM are you currently on?
When you install a ROM, it modifies the /system directory which is responsible for everything, how the rom looks, included apps, drivers etc.
When you do a factory reset, I'm guessing through recovery, it is only clearing the /data and /cache partitions.
You will have to flash a stock RUU to get it to truly go back to the day you got it.
Here are instructions on how to return to stock:

The ROM Ive been on hasnt mattered. Ive jumped through BAMF, the new Cubed Rom, the Deodexed stock debloat and Virus' Airborne(which is my daily driver). Ive done the different radios. I was on the v2 leaked for a while, then I switched to the new 3g and old 4g to see if its worked but it hasnt. I may have to try out the original one and see if that works, but I havent had wifi since before I flashed in the leaked radio when it came out.

Gotcha. Trying this now. I will make sure to make a nandroid this time if it works. lol.
@isdnmatt: Thanks, that got rid of my recovery problem
Still having wifi issue though. 100% out of the box stock and I get the "Unable to scan for networks
**** me, I should have read that before I did it. Now I have to reroot. Goddamnit.
Have had the same problem with WiFi before and after ADB root. It will sometimes forget both my home and work networks. I've found the problem usually occurs when I'm connected then move put of range. A reboot fixes the problem sometimes. Other times I have to re-enter my settings. I'm still on the stock Rom, nothing custom.

Thats a separate issue than what Im having. Im not having issues with it forgetting my networks. I cant scan for networks.
I am thinking of downgrading the radio.
EDIT: after LOTS of research here, I upgraded to MR2 and Gingervitis. All of my WiFi issues are gone.

Here's a strange one for you people ........ been using cm7 for a few week no real issues until I flashed "LeoMar75 Rom Revolution v2.4" everything flashed fine except now my phone is asking for pin everytime i power on. I've never setup a pin / password?! So with that i thought no problem I'll reflash to another rom clearing everything first. This does not seem to be clearing the pin out I've also tried going back to stock and still the pin is present! The ony way I can get the phone working (unlocking) is to reflash cm7! So now I'm stuck with cm7 until i can figure a way to really clear everything off my phone. Any suggestions? and does anyone now why going back to stock is now wiping this data out?
Oh my, that is very unfortunate. I've never heard of this problem. Maybe you can try a full wipe and flash a new ROM instead. Use Titanium backup if needed.
this is a long story, so bear with me, please:
i used to be on JPKH1 (this was the rom that came out of the box)
i was on XXKI3 when i decided to flash nightly #116 of CM7. i followed the instructions, got it working and had no real issues. however, i felt like CM7 made my phone old-ish (loved it otherwise), so i decided to return to a custom rom. prior to all this, i was on VillainROM 3.0
i flashed XWKJ3, business as usual, and then Batista70 rom. when i did that, something...strange, happened. none of the system functions worked (SNS sync, android system ringtones, etc.). i was overall dissatisfied with it, so i switched to Omega rom 6 XT.
i did that, and installed the relevant version of ICS domination theme by vertumus, and that's when it first happened - both the camera AND android system ringtones were force closing. also, when a system notification came on the unfortunate moment my phone was asleep, there would be a moving pixel on the screen and nothing else until i woke the phone up. nothing i did would fix it, and believe me, i tried EVERYTHING (restore nandroid, fix permissions, reflash rom). at last, i factory reset it, which did the trick but took some of the 'omega' out of 'omega rom'
i flashed stock XWKJ3, factory reset, flashed Omega 7 XT, and the problem persisted. it starts whenever i reboot the phone, for any reason, even if it doesn't change anything on the phone (just a simple power on/power off)
now i was pissed, and went back KI3 and VillainRom 3 and all SEEMED good. there were VRTweaks i wanted to use, but the above DID happen, after all. i rebooted into CWM recovery, took a nandroid, booted up again and sure enough, 'it' happened AGAIN!!!
this has me driving myself crazy, and no one on the Omega thread seems to believe in the existence of my post there (that's how well they're ignoring it). WHAT SHOULD I DO?!!!
by the way, i have NEVER flashed a .PIT file (since i've read in so many places not to touch that thing on the S2) and my binary counter is at a service-center-scaring 7. and for the love of god, don't just read this and go away (that's happened to me before), GIVE ME A HAND!!!
Stock rom via odin, and reroot.

Try wiping dalvik/partition/cache before and after installing the custom ROM
I do that out of habit when installing custom roms, as in the above cases

the pixel on the screen is because of app called noLED or something like that just uninstall it like any other apk and your that problem will be solved it automatically installs when you flash OMEGA ROM

Random but I had an issue on my phone that followed me through different ROMs and kernels like some sort of ghost.
Turned out to be a corrupted video file in my ext SD card which was basically crashing the phone constantly and causing all sorts of strange issues.
Sent from my Optimus 2X using Tapatalk
thanks for the suggestion, mungulz, but i suppose we don't have the same problem. i went through all my internal AND external data and saw nothing out of the ordinary
on that note, introducing another twist in this ridiculous predicament, NO app (and with the exception of root explorer, NO app) can see my songs (external sd). if i use root explorer to force an app to use it, the app force closes
and just a thought, but i keep fixating on the .PIT file. your thoughts?
Have you done a full wipe including user data? Might be something left over that us causing issues, take a titanium backup first though
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
if you mean the CWM one, then yes, plenty of times. basically, each time i flashed something on the phone in this period, i factory reset. if i do it now, that will temporarily solve the problem and i'm pretty sure of it. one reboot later, i'll be back in hot water
i'm aware, of course, that there are other ways of factory resetting...
1) Flash Stock KI3, with pit file and re-partition
2) Back up everything including the int. SD to my PC.
3) press *2767*3855# it will completely wipe your device.
4) Once phone reboots, place custom rom and pictures + titanium backup onto the int. SD
5) Flash a custom Kernel
6) Reboot recovery, wipe data, wipe system, Flash Rom.
7) Reboot and restore the DATA only
or without pit file and uncheck re-partition
i had to go for tuition, so i couldn't do all the things gasmias said; just factory reset with *2767*3855# and then restored the apps ONLY with TB. and...my phone is back!
huge thanks to all of you for trying to help (lol, too many thanks buttons to press) . i guess it was just corrupt left overs. but dammit, now i'm scared of putting VRTweaks back in . eh, i'll take a nandroid back up
in light of these events, anything i should keep in mind for my future flashing endeavors?
So I got an Evo 3D GSM a few days ago and upon installing a custom ROM on it, the phone worked perfectly up until the first reboot. At which point it began to reboot frequently so I reverted back to stock and it was fine. I then tried another ROM though from the same developer and once again it was fine up until the first reboot and then again it became unstable.
At this point I know it could just be that I used 2 different Sense 3.5 ROMs from Shooter that's been causing the problem but unless that's a known issue which I couldn't seem to find, I'd rather not install another ROM just to test this out.
Basically I'm wondering if I could be doing something wrong, I installed it through ClockworkMod Recovery which never gave me problems on my Nexus One. Also if I'm going to test if it's just an issue with the ROMs, can anyone suggest a stable and relatively customizible ROM?
Are you doing a clean install, full wipe?
Also, are you loading apps and settings back into the phone from Titanium or the like?
Ya when I attempted to do it non-clean it was unstable off the bat. The last time I basically wiped everything. I have been using Titanium Backup to restore apps but I also used it on stock(I backed up from my Nexus originally) and it hasn't given me any problems there.
Try flashing the rom first again and this time don't use tb to restore data to apps. I've seen and read quite a few times that tb can cause all kind of weird problems when restoring data+apps. Try just restoring just the apps and see if the issue still remains.

I went through the apps I don't need first and removed the backups, I never did restore data, just apps. MikRunny seems to be running stable so problem solved though I still don't know if it was ROM related or just an app screwing with it.
if you flashed a new ROM, it was probably the ROM since it is working now, seeing as how you didn't restore any of your data. logically, that sounds right to me.

Well I had tried two different ROMs before and never restored Data, kinda strange but it appears to be fine now so I'm not complaining.
I have been running MIUI on an x2 for a few days and I went to use my Camcorder and it crashes. I tried several different ones and it just keeps failing. It starts to record and then does a FC. I downloaded different cameras and they do the same thing. I even tried some different once through downloading the Apks from this device and from the Atrix.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Probably a silly question but did u manually do a reboot, or go into applications and clear the catch and data. Also when you installed the miui did u do the three wipes first?

From what I have been able to read its something to do with permission settings for the camcorder. If I can just get help how to change this to the proper settings that would be great!!
This is a bug that has been with the rom since the beginning.
I hope you find a workaround.

I got tired of the camcorder not working and wanted to switch roms.
To make a long story short, I am back on MIUI beta and the camcorder seems to be...
working now!
What I did (or what I can remember I did, because you know how it goes SBF'ing, flashing roms, and clearing caches over and over again)
Booted into BSR and made back-up of the MIUI setup I was running (with camcorder not working)
SBF'd to 2.3.4 kernel factory reset / cleared cache and dalvik cache
*did not root yet*
rebooted into stock recovery and flashed 2.3.5 kernel.
Then did Zerg Rush Root method.
Installed BSR(not the cm7 version) the original.
Booted into BSR and factory reset / cleared cache and dalvik again...
Flashed Eclipse 2.2 custom rom.
Booted into op system / skipped everything / got to homescreen checked wifi to see error when trying to toggle on/off.
Got pissed, took a drink of a nice northwest local IPA and said Im going back to MIUI and Im doing it with 2.3.5 kernel installed.
This is where I got a little fuzzy... but I think this is what I did...
Did a operating system factory reset (just internal sd card)
Booted back into op system I think I had to re-install BSR (original)
Booted into BSR and restored my latest backed up MIUI.
When I got back to MIUI I noticed WIFI was working and when I went to Camera APP switched to video it didnt FC.
Instead it recorded a 25 second video with no problems. I have been playing with it ever since with no problems.
I hope this may help you in your quest to get camcorder in MIUI.
