A few unrelated Q's - Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

What is the difference between a MTD ROM and the others like a TWM?
What does OMGB and OMFGB stand for as far as the ROM's go?
And my SD Card is dying. What do I need to copy over to the new one before I put it in?

MTD is a different filesystem, than what the TW run. TW are stock based Rome, MTD are AOSP.
OMGB is pure Gingerbread, OMFGB is Gingerbread with tweaks. You can use your imagination as to what they stand for, I've heard a few different variations
On the SD card you can copy everything, or just what you want. When I switch SD cards I usually only copy the folders I put there and my titanium backup folder.:

I've used Villain Rom and wasn't happy so i got back to my rooted 1.5 stock. For me the only thing which i want is app2sd in a stock rom. And Villain isn't doing it, also default OC isn't good for the battery life

And what has that got to do with their new Froyo ROM?
ah damn, i should've opened the link Sorry
The question is, if he can get this alone working... at the beginning there was this thread where many devs started to work together and now... i mean you can build a house faster with 20 people rather beeing alone
There it also looks like it has slowed down a bit... but well hopefully they get it working

What is the difference between Eclair,Froyo and Gingerbread?

Hello all,
This might just be the noob-est question ever, but somebody please tell me what advantages does froyo have over eclair, and gingerbread will have over froyo..
Thanks in advance.

Eclair = 2.1 = shipped with all Galaxy S Vibrants and other Android devices (most of them). Good base system, pretty average I guess.
Froyo = 2.2 = obvious improvements + enhancements + Adobe Flash Player 10.1 + a bunch more features not seen in 2.1.
Gingerbread = 2.3 = obvious improvements and code enhancements. Runs on EXT4 (faster, more stable, and more efficient than RFS - default on 2.1/2.2)
Obviously, each new version has supple code enhancements which improve user experience, and other robust features not seen in previous installments.
Hey thanks for ur input bobbbb..sounds gud to me

adding on to the other guy, each new one is harder to get if you have a samsung device.
Are there any differences in how the camera, or the 3G, 4G, or any other functions in the way they work on these ROM versions?
Yes. They are different. For the most part they will be similar, but not completely alike.

Thanks bobbbb for this great explanation.
I only think that there are upgrading in system/kernel and only that

Agreed.
Also though if you are using Chinese, Gingerbread seems to be more adept at managing it (ex: contacts in chinese).
ANd other features are improved such as mounting time.
mother f*- god damn it how old is this thread? I dont even remember typing that post.
STOP GRAVE DIGGING FOR GODS SAKE.

this may be a dumb question but GB releases and froyo radios?

If the gingerbread radios are causing all sorts of problems can we just stick to froyo radios in like das bamf 2.0 and avoid the brick? im sorry if this is a dumb question but im not familiar with the functionality differences between the two if htey are even comparable at all?

Froyo based roms only work on Froyo based radios and GB based roms work only on GB based radio.

You're correct in your observation. I think the CM7 team jury rigged the froyo radio to work because no leaks were in play at the time.

Yes because technically the radio's are not Android version specific. Eventually when there is a stable GB radio (Which would technically just be an upgraded radio) CM7 will be built around that.

whats up with the loads of Ginger ROMS??

im seeing atleast 2 ginger roms being released every day......whats the point of ppl just going to crazy development mode and releasing a variant of stock ginger rom...
but the point is clearly that most of us will use only miks cm7 or andy's cm7 or noejn's or ciaox(almost forgot xD) along with franco's kernel
I should also add, what's up with billions new threads asking/requesting/announcing for the same things again and again and again. It's becoming tiresome tracking the usefull info around here
Full Ack, it's better to have some devs helping the 2-4 Maindev's and having 2-4 very stable Roms and Kernels instead of having 1000 of Roms and Kernels which are crap.
These 2-4 Roms and 1-2 Kernels (or 2-4) are very stable, and People can change the Launcher if they dont like the Preinstalled Stuff.
Sorry, that are just my 2 Cents.
Its just started and you are telling it to stop. We wont stop until number crosses the froyo roms. I believe we have more than 20 froyo roms. So until its 20, dont complain.

Well said
And where is the Sense in having 20+ Roms, where are the differences just minimal ? (Like Cosmetic : Launcher etc).
Imho : Senseless
Newbies are loosing the oversight, if there is too much. Which goes to Noob Questions like : Which Rom ist the Best, my Rom crashed why ? etc blahblah. Aka a flood of Stuff, many dont like.
Again, i dont have nothing against new Devs....but as in Companies or OS-Projects : Why dont bundle the Power of them into just some Projects (If the Maindevs likes to have help).
i think that mik and andy should work toghether on a custom rom. imagine that

The difference is that most of those 20 froyo roms, each one was making a step further into p500 custom rom making. Development was growing back then. Just a few of the old...void/devoid, megatron, LOL, nessy, Light etc. Today custom development has come to a peak. If someone can make something new or different from what our current devs can do then bring it on. But all I can see is clones nothing more
Everything is goin to die down in few days, and only the best shall survive. I say its a fair competition and best will survive.

A few weeks ago everyone was complaining that there are too few ginger ROMs.
Now you don't like it?
Yeah there must be development of gb Roms as this will lead to a great rom.

Yes!! the problem lies in clones being made, and no new ideas or innovations...
I support new ROMS being developed, but it only makes sense if it brings something new and exciting with it, after all ROM devs can have the top kernels out here in it and focus on customizing and speeding up there roms, while adding new features and ideas. Its just a waste of time and effort if it just uses gimmicky themes and mods

So that means nobody should make another one? or another kernel? everyone must go to andy's thread or franco's thread to write"yay!" "wow!"?
Personal opinion: mik's great but buggy for daily use, andy´s buggy and franco kernel is the buggiest ever

well you could also write "yeehaa!" "wooh00" "bring it daddy" and other lovely stuff
Besides joking...we don't need clones.
If you can make something new (i'm not saying better), something different or innovative, for example franco has customized the kernel, ciaox made openscript, mik ported CM etc etc then we will all be very glad to have it.
Thats why is called "Development". Unfortunately not anyone can do it. So let those who know how to do it, to do it properly.
Haha cool. I wish I could be of some help

De-Sensed GB Rom?

Anyone know of a Desense GB rom built off the January OTA? Just wanting to dabble with themeing again, using one as a base. Latest one I can find is one of Scott's, and that's built off the release rom.
That's probably the last you will find. Most everyone has moved on to ICS.
Well crud. I may have to play around with re-basing then and/or desensing Cleanrom 1.7.5
Don't see why people stay on GB considering the quality of the latest ICS builds. Best move you will ever do.. Seriously! But to each their own.

I was actually going to say the same thing. Especially if you're a fan of Scott's CleanROM. CleanROM ICS Developer edition is a pretty solid DeSensed ROM.

I like to dabble. Didn't I mention that in my OP? Not going to use the rom as a daily. I already have a nandroid of ICS.

I was going to say Ineffabilis v1.4 I have been using it without any problems. Good, solid GB ROM, and I stripped it clean of any sense application (except the camera )
I'm just waiting patiently for the 'official' ICS update or s-off... whichever comes first =/ But for now, Ineffabilis it is

It's not Hate for GB. I had GB on my DX for the last year of it's life. So I'm over it especially since ICS has many more benefits than GB.

I do agree with you in that aspect. Found it not to be worth my time to mess around with theming again when the stuff looks good as is(Both ICS & GB).
