I created this thread cause in the JACHero thread on at least every page everyone asks how to install it, what am I doing wrong, and why is it broken.
So let me give you step by steps of what exactly I have done for me and others to run Hero with out a problem. I will also create a thread with step by step on how to use Ubuntu Linux Live distro to partition your card.
Things you will need to make this work.
Your Brain
G1 Phone
SD Card reader
And the files I included in this thread.
My phone right now is running.
JACHero 2.3
NEW SPL
cyanogens recovery 1.2
8gb class 6sd with Swapper(Swap file on ext2 sd)
setCPU slightly overclock.
Results.
Ever since I did my new Buttons, and the SPL I included in this write up, I have not had one problem flashing any hero rom at all on my phone, nor did I ever have problem actually running hero roms.
So here goes.
First before you partition your card or do anything make sure your card is at least portioned to fat32, don't worry about any other partitions yet.
OK once you do that go ahead and take the radio zip file I am including in this thread and flash it on your phone.
But first make sure you don't already have new radio installed which is 2.22.19.26I THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT. To check what radio you have, power off your phone, and power it on while holding the camera button.
If you do have new radio you can continue on to flashing the new SPL.
Flashing your SPL. (PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE NEW BUTTONS INSTALLED)
Ok this is where it might get a little tricky, and you might require a SD card reader I know I did and frankly I think this is the best way to do it and I recommend every time you do put a new update on your sd card to update your phone do it through a card reader.
Now after you flash your SPL you might or I should say more then likely will get stuck at the T-Mobile G1 screen, this also might happen after new radio flash in the previous step. If this is the case do not freak out it's normal and your phone is not bricked, but this is why having a sd card reader is important.
Ok so Here is what you do after you have flashed new Radio and SPL(Note:The steps on running Linux live distro and using it to partition your card is coming up). Boot up Live distro of Ubuntu, when its done booting, go ahead and go into the partitioning program while your sd card is hooked up in the computer.
Go ahead and set up two partitions at this time. One EXT3, and of course the other one Fat32. Your ext3 partition doesn't have to be all that big. I actually have mine set up to 512.
Once you are done creating partitions, go ahead and put the latest JACHero on the FAT32 portion and flash away (don't forget to rename to update.zip).
At this point if you follow all of these steps there is no way possible that your phone should not boot right into the system to run the initial setup.
These steps pretty much walk you through steps as if you were starting with a phone that has completly nothing on it.
Also the first boot up after flashing the new ROM, might take a few mins at the HTC screen.
Once your phone loads up and you go through the setup process go ahead and run swapper, it should be an APP that's already pre-installed.
Once you run swapper go into the setting and change the location of your swap file from /sdcard/swapfile.swp to /system/sd/swap.swp
Here is the reason why. The default location is your FAT32 partition. If you all of a sudden mount your phone to the computer with the swap file running on FAT32 you will corrupt your sd card, and then you will have to wipe and reinstall everything.
If you set the location of your swap file on /system/sd/ that's actually your ext2/3 partition and never gets mounted and you never have to turn swapper off.
Well I hope this helps some of you out. I will be writing the walk through on loading up live distro of Linux and partitioning your card sometime today.
I have used this method on a couple different phones and it has worked each time. Also I really recommend installing cyanogens recovery 1.2, as its an excellent way of making a back up of your phone and doing future flashing.
If there is anything anyone thinks that could be done better feel free to post in here.
Remember different people have different ways. I have posted this way cause it has worked for me on my phone and two other phones I setup, and each time there was no hicups.
FILES:
Radio 2_22_19_26I
NEW SPL
CM-Recovery-1.2
Ubuntu Linux Download
DISCLAIMER:
I am not responsible for anything that you might have done to your phone by following these directions. Like I mentioned before so far every time I have used this method, I have had nothing but success.

Hey everyone,
I was trying to follow the guide posted after the OP (quoted above), and had a few questions that didn't seem all that clear to me. I've searched all of last night looking for answers.
-What does he mean by "PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE NEW BUTTONS INSTALLED", and how do I install them if I must?
-The cyanogen recovery image, is that installed just as any other rom, via update.zip, ALT+S, etc.?
-Lastly, is it really that much better if I get a Class 6 card? I currently have a regular microSD, but am willing to stick with it if the build runs fine, any other reports on this?
I'm currently at a very basic build, JFv1.51 with no other mods. Thanks in advance!

Buttons in the post refers to the Radio. Yes the CM recovery image is installed just like a ROM, alt+s. Yes it is worth it to get a class 6 sd card. I myself don't have one but I know it's worth it. Got to newegg I think you can get one there for under 20$ Hope i helped you!

Removed SD Card

Sorry if this has been adressed before, but i did use the search and i cannot quite figure out what to do next. I might have dropped my phone the other day, and since then none of my apps run from the SD becase it thinks that it was ejected. So, i wiped and installed a clean JackXrom again, and it was fine for about 20 min, then phone locked up, and when i restarted, i get the same problem. Should i format the partitions on the card perhaps? I was trying to avoid that, so any work around would be helpfull.
Latest radio, spl. Class 6 8 gig SD card.
Thanks.

sounds like a corrupted partition try repair ext file systems if that dosent work youve got to format partition and reinstall all apps.
btw does youre fat32 partition work?

If it only happened once it shouldn't be an issue, but if it does it wouldn't hurt to format your ext.
In recovery
mount -o rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /system/sd
rm -r /system/sd/*

I tried repairing my ext, no luck.
Whenever i try to mount in recovery console i get error : No such file or directory

Sounds like you need to delete the partition and make a new one, as it can't be read. If you're going to use parted from you're phone then you'll probably have to start over and recreate fat (and linux-swap if you had one) too. If you're using paragon or Gparted you should be able to recreate just your ext.

I cant recall which tutorial i fallowed, but it was all done through the terminal or recovery. Could you possibly point me to the right thread?

if you can remember the start and end of youre ext partition i think you can do this in parted by typing print then note down the start and end then type mkpartfs primary ext2 start - end

Here you go, follow the second section.
http://android-simplicity.blogspot.com/2009/08/how-to-6-how-to-partition-your-sdcard.html

Everytime i try to mount in recovery i get "mount: mounting /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 on /sdcard failed: device or resource busy"
I'm lost.

pull your battery our for 30 seconds or so. remove your sd card then reinsert it and then try again. if that doesnt work then do what the others guys have said and try to reformat your sd card and start from scratch.

Actually, with Parted you can just rm and mkpartfs any partition you want without affecting the other partitions.

I bit the bullet and just formated all the partitions.
Thanks anyways guys.

My advice for next time or any body else reading would be to download a live CD for ubuntu or fedora or similar and boot your PC off that - it's graphical and v. easy.
Or just dump windows altogether and go for linux ;-)
Smiffy.

Yeah Gparted is amazing problem is then you have to walk the person through downloading, burning the image...which can be painful.

This is still happening, fresh format on sd card partitios and a wipe and clean install of Jacxrom.
Bad sd card? Or the phone?

JACxROM [v1.3]
I am attempting to flash to this ROM. Everything seems to go as describen in other posts, but when I power up the phone, I never make it past the splash screen. Any thoughts??

sorry
Sorry I posted this in the wrong place, I will move it.

Bump, dead SD card?

partition corrupted anyway to recover?
I need help please!
I was running cyanogen 4.0.3.1 just installed today morning then changed theme to enoch 1.12 the newest one that worked fine. Updated the browser to loccys Then installed the HTC music and when finally rebooted the phone it was working fine until I noticed I had none of my apps on the sdcard.
All I have is syste/app folder which runs internally I think everything else does not work. It's like my sdcard is not in.
I shutdown rebooted and waited. Then removed sdcard rebooted and inserted the card one fully powered on and it is saying it wants to format it.
I get home turn my ubuntu system on and it detects it as a ext3 partition yet nothing inside. and now no fat32 partition or linux-swap.
anyways to recover or am I SOL?

Installing Cyanogen

Ive tried installing Cyanogen about 10 times on my G1 and it always ends up the same no matter what guide i use. Ive tried so many different "stable" versions of Cyanogen i dont even know where to begin. I downgrade to RC29 fine, Install the radio update, and gain root access. Then i boot into the Home+Power menu and install Cyanogen through the Alt+S install prompt. Then the phone reboots and either hangs at the G1 screen or loads to the Cyanogen (Blue text) Android screen and hangs there and the screen eventually goes black.
Another time i installed a more recent version of Cyanogen, After about 5 minutes of sitting at the android screen it would load, but all the applications would instantly crash and i would have no choice but to turn the phone off. Does anyone have any idea what im doing wrong. Ive been searching every android forum for the past 4 days and cant seem to find a solution to solve this problem.

I don't know if this will work since you don't have a Cyanogen ROM to begin with, but you might try the Cyanogen updater app in the market. It is unbelievably easy and does everything for you from downloading the rom to rebooting into recovery and automatically flashing it.

Did you partition you sd? I am pretty sure any cyan mod requires a fat32 and ext2 oartition for the auto apps2sd.

Nah, it works fine without an ext2 partition, once you create one it will copy your apps over and set it up on boot. It does seem to have issues when the partitioning isn't right though. I've found doing partitioning in recovery console most reliable.

I have the same problem and to me it DOes have issue when the partitioning isnt right cuz I failed the partition... in console it just didnt work, and now everytime I try to reinstall the rom it turn black after the blue android logo...and from there Im stuck, I just dont know what to do to make it work...

have you tried checking the md5sum to see if you got a bad download. i got one once and nothing would work

MD5 sum matches up fine. Is there anything else i should be adding to this procedure?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=548924
I do this guide word for word and end up with that black screen i was describing before every time.
Install CyanogenMOD 4.0.1 (Stable), Right after that section of the guide when i reboot my phone, i get the black screen after the android logo sits for about 5-10 minutes and i cant continue with the guide any further although im assuming the other guides after this are optional.

have you tried the latest 4.0.4 rom?

Yessir i have. Ive tried 4.0.2 and older versions as well. No luck just different problems.

Can we install another rom other than cyanogen on the cyanogen recovery? cuz if so ill try to install a rom that dont have app2sd just to see...
Ive find my problem now my cyanogen work...it was my sd card that is not well partitioned even tough I reformated it to fat32 it just wont work..so after installin the cyanogen rom i just removed the sd card and it worked fine...so I guess ill go buy a already partitioned sdcard cuz im havin problem with theses...

I can't believe that no one has said this to the op but did you wipe before flashing

yea wiped... but now how to I proceed? I need an sd card...
If I partition my sd card outside of the cellphone and put it in, will cynogen rom will recognize that app2sd is possible or I will need to reinstall the rom?

I was suggesting wiping to the op mesh, forken, yes you can partion the card outside the phone as long as you have a fat32 partion on there since it is the only file type that the phone will recongize as a non operating storage place for your roms and other files

partitioning is so simple, just use console and follow the guides. Make sure you know what size your card is and you will be fine. You can't buy a partitioned sd card so your gonna have to figure it out.
once in recovery goto console
hit enter after each line
parted /dev/block/mmcblk0
print (this will give you your sd size in mb)
mkpartfs primary fat32 0 xxxx (xxxx is the size you get in print MINUS 512)
mkpartfs primary ext2 xxxx xxxx (first xxxx is the size of your sd MINUS 512, like we just did. 2ND xxxx is the full size of your sd)
then goto recovery and click fix/repair ext filesystems.

well yes you can buy a pre partion, theres a android website where you can buy pre partition sd card anyway you like it...
the problem is that my sd card is bugged now I think I need to fix it before trying to partition it again...cuz it wrongly partitioned..

Really you can buy pre partion cards, I think I just found my next scheme to make money since I can use the partion editor in ubuntu in 3 minutes so there is 60 minutes in an hour, so that's 20 cards an hour and I am lazy so 5 cards a day. How much is the mark up on these pre partion cards, I can out do them by 50 cents, make a link to my website for them in my sig and prob make a little profit, yay, go ignorance and laziness

ahah ill post it...
Do you know if I can fix a wrongly partitioned sd card... with just trying to partition it correctly? or I need to fix it first?

Sure, wipe it completely clean, it's called reformating. Make new partions, whichever way you are using for partion does not seem to be working for you so I would suggest trying to find another way, try googling gparted like I told you before to do and give that a try

just format the card to FAT32. You don't need an ext partition to run cyanogen, you just need it if you want apps2sd. And do a low level (not quick) format.

ive tried to reformat to fat32 and it does the same thing...

broken SD card??? PLEASEEEE HELP!!!!!!

hey everyone, im not usually quick to ask for help but i am absolutely frustrated and stuck.
trust me ive searched and read everything i need to and its just not working for me
i have a 8gb micro sd class 6 card.... everything was fine and working perfect until i did a nandroid backup
then my card started having errors when repairing ext filesystems
so i put the card in my computer and formatted it.
then i deleted and repartitioned the card
then i did the command in the recovery console to fix the filesystem error
reflashed the radio image
none of that is working for me
i have another 4gb class 4 card and its working perfect for me
but ever since my 8gb did a nandroid backup, the roms wont load at all and i get stuck in a boot loop with the second htc splash screen
PLEASE HELP THIS IS DRIVING ME MAD!!!! thanks a bunch in advance!!
im using jacxhero v2.1
and i use cyan 1.4 recovery img

After you partition in Recovery, you don't need to fix filesystems... just exit Parted and type upgrade_fs in recovery console to upgrade to ext3.

this is a fault with the rom, the nandroid backup shouldnt cause a bootloop.
did you make sure the partitions are in this order?: FAT32, ext, linux swap?
can you see the card on your pc?

yes i did those 3 in order, ive done it several different times
i make sure that i do the upgrade_fs to convert to ext3
everything goes well when i partition and i can see the sd card in my computer. but for some reason i cant get past the splash screen with this memory card... my other one is working perfect, and so was this one until i did the backup thing
when i flash, it finishes and i reboot and get stuck after the HERO splash screen, the first time it shows the little android guy and then the screen goes black and i see the same spash screen again but with no android
what happens if i repair filesystems after i repartitioned??

it wont hurt to repair it, but it seems that the problem is more likely the hero rom. something is causing the rom to bootloop. did you wipe before you flashed? try that if you havent.
also, set up adb using the stickys in this thread, then use
Code:
adb logcat
when it starts to boot. that way i can see whats happening thats causing it to bootloop

yes i definately wipe before flashing. i still think its the sd card since my other sd card works with the same rom
ill try out the abd thing... ive seen posts about it but never really read into it.
thanks for the advice! ill be right back with the results
right now that i tried again, i cant get passed the tmobile g1 screen... seems to be stuck =[
the card was formatted and partitioned and then i booted (the rom is already flashed on here, i just took out my 4gb card and switched it out for this one so i shouldnt need to reflash should i?

now i deleted all partitions in recovery mode and rebooted....
i got both splash screens hero with android and then the htc splash... now it went to a black screen and has been like this for about 5 or 6 minutes
with my 4gb card it shows the two splash screens and then the black screen comes on for no more than 30 seconds and then the phone loads

well the hero builds put some apps and configuration files on the ext partition. if your 4gb card has those on it, then you probably wont have to.
Can you see the partitions on your computer?

no i dont know how to see partitions on my computer

if your using windows, format the whole card to FAT32 and put it in your card reader to see if it shows up as a removable drive.
what are you using to partition the card? Try flashing another rom that doesnt need extra partitions (such as cyanogen) and see if that rom can see your card as well.
if it doesnt detect it, then your card may have gone bad

=[ looks like i got a bad card....
i appreciate you two helping me out! wish it could have worked... i guess im just gonna pick up a new card

this rom wont even load when i dont have an SD card in it... and when the phone is loaded with my 4gb card, if i take it out, the phone freezes
weird....

like i said, important system files are on the sd card. you cant remove the sd card without crashing it. if you want a rom that you can use without an sd card, use JF or Cyanogen's rom. The hero roms have too much stuff to fit it all in the internal memory of the phone

what are those important files on the sd card?
are you talking about the partitions or something else?
if its something else like hidden files or something, then maybe thats what i need to fix my 8gb

they arent hidden, but thats what i was trying to say. after youve formatted your card, wipe and reflash the update. it will put those files on your card automatically.
they are located on your ext partition.
if you use adb, you can see them in
/system/sd/app_s
to get it to work, put the freshly partitioned sdcard into the phone.
press home+power to get to recovery. wipe the phone. flash the update (jachero2.1)
when it installs, it will find the ext partition and do it manually

Can an SD Card be bad but not bad?

I just got an A-Data Class 6 4 gig card. I can format 3 partitions, upgrade to ext3, copy update zips and files to it, but it boot loops when i try to load up a new rom (any rom). My old class 2 4 gig card loads everything fine. It even runs the latest king hero really well.
Any ideas?

How did you partition your card?

using parted in console. I've re-done it several times as well.

So no matter what rom you flash your getting a bootloop. Do you have a nandroid?

I do. Using Amon_Ra's 1.2.3

On 2nd thought, do you mean a nandroid of a bootloop instance?

Naw a nandroid of a rom that was working before you started flashing.

unfortunately no. i got partition crazy and removed the fat32 it was on right before i thought "did i back that up?"
With my old class 2, i've been able to get up and running on 4.1.999 and this king hero rom with no troubles.

Can a taco be bad but not bad? like, it tastes good, but it was made with bad ingredeints or a horrible chef.....
It sounds to me like your wiping after flashing.
You wipe data, Wipe ext, fix ext, flash rom.
If you wipe after flashing, or flash without wiping you will always get a boot loop.
The image doesnt run from your sd card, so the only thing that would cause the loop is the data on your phone.
Find a tested and working rom (i suggest either Mligns newest or Kings newest)
Go into recovery and turn on USB.
Move rom to sd card.
Wipe data
Wip EXT and fix
REBOOT INTO RECOVERY
then go to flash any ZIP (if you dont reboot, the rom file will not be seen correctly)
flash the rom
Fix ext again just in case
Reboot and leave the phone alone for a few mnutes.
EVERY phone is different. Some take 2 min some take 10-20 min
But if you have flashed properly, the best way to know is the shimmer on the HTC will continue to flow and not stop.
Sometimes it will fade, sometimes the noti bar will appear for 5 min then boot...
Just have patience and try.
EDIT- You typed while I was typing, It sounds like then maybe that card is bad then. If all works with older card, then the flash may be bad on the newer card. may want to return it unless you have other uses for it.

Just to add a strange twist to this. Just reformatted card so it was all Fat32, wiped, and flashed 4.0.4. Everything went fine. What on an SD card could crash Apps2SD?

Possibly the upgrade from ext2 to ext3. Thats why I like to do mine in Ubuntu. Format the card using linux for a linux phone.

Decided to go a step further and go back to parted and resize fat32 and add a 500mb ext2. Rebooted and it fired up and shows the ext2 in the settings screen.
All that and it's not even Halloween yet. I'm going to try to flash 4.1.11.1 just to see if i can break it again

I'm sending it back. wiped flashed 4.1.11.1. Got to setup screen but everything force closes. com.android.phone, com.google.process.gapps, com.android.setupwizard.

lol.....you give up quite easily.. those problems arent related to the sd card (they are on your /system partition)
try to reflash your rom and repair ext partitions then fix_permissions in recovery

hmmmm.....got card #2 and it appears to be the same case....boot loops. i can't believe that 2 sd cards would be bad only when it comes to apps2sd.

got adb running on my work pc and uploaded a log of the fail

again, everything boots just fine (just booted king's new 1.0) with my lexar class 2

updated logcat - 1st one was when i couldn't get off of the g1 screen.
this logcat is of the bootloop. any help would be great
