Hello everyone,

I recently converted to BH_MAN stock BH2 image + root. I'm having the following situation:

After the install and performing the Master reset everything is working fine, I proceeded to download some applications and everything was operational.

I rebooted my phone (for some reason I do not recall right now, happened 2 days ago) and when it came up, I had several applications corrupted: There was an icon in the same place that the original was with the same name but different icon, and if I clicked it would advise that the application was not installed. I would go to my downloads and the application management sections and see the application and it wouldn't work till I uninstalled it, then reinstalled it.

Now, last night I also uninstalled the T-Mobile "My Account" software and let my battery drain out completely to have it sync correctly (that was another problem I was having, batt would say I was at 20% and I had 4 bars in the screen, fixed now) and once I let it charge completely I powered it on and some applications were uninstalled again, but the T-Mobile Account software was there again!!.


Can anyone explain if this is a permanent problem or is there something to be done?
 
The T-Mobile My Account will always be there, it's Deeply embedded into the system. I'm currently still working on removing it. As for the Missing app's, well? idk about that....
I'm currently working on another update that address the battery issue's, may or may not Help it... Just keep that in mind, but it will Fix the battery in the Tool bar from not displaying the correct % of power left on the Phone.

I Highly recommend doing this from adb shell..
adb shell
wipe data

I found this command works better than the Factory reset which is odd.

I am Hoping to have the Nexxt release out today, or Friday at the latest.
I've been working all week on it, not much change regarding what you will see in the Rom, but should be alot more stable this time around.

Yea, its a very odd situation, I haven't seen it before on my other phones or any other ROMs but again, everything is different.

The funny part of it, is that it corrupts 2 - 4 apps at a time but all the information with in the app once reinstalled comes back like if nothing ever happened.

I will test out later tonight the "wipe data" command and reinstall everything and test it out. Now will the wipe data command erase and reboot my phone? or will I have to follow the steps to reload the custom ROM again?

Thanks man!

Nope :)
the wipe data command just does a Factory reset. either a Power off or battery pull will be needed, but I found it works better :)
