Help Flashing Roms

If I understand correctly you are attempting to flash velocity 0.2, 0.3, and 0.4... if that is the case it will moet def fail for the fact that it is built off of eclair and you cant go from 2.2 to 2.1, its impossible. Currently availiable froyo roms are velocity 1.0 velocity 1.1 or frunisher 1.0. When you download be sure to do it over a wifi connection for the security of the data because you my have broken downloads.

 

You flashed .2 and .3 velocity and that could very well be where your problem is. Those are not compatible with 2.2.1 or 2.2.2 of Android. What do you mean by manually flashed? Velocity 1.1 Rom should be flashed from recovery. Best thing to do is make a backup of your programs, make a nandroid from recovery (just in case) then do a factory reset (wipes everything) and reboot. After that then wipe data, cache, dalvik etc... and to be safe reboot, then go into recovery wipe everything again and flash velocity1.1 from the recovery. The reason I say to do it this way (basically wiping everything 3 times) is that, in my experience on the Ally, that sometimes during a wipe everything isn't always wiped some things tend to stick causing problems. After you have flashed velocity and before you start to restore programs with a program like Titanium Backup, make another nandroid of your "clean" install. Also go into velocity toolkit run terminal emulator, and type velocity you may have to do this a few times but get the scripts to update which will get rid of some compatibility issues and the dreaded update notification. Also if you restore things from Titanium just restore the programs no data and definitely no system files or data. If you do it can mess with the system. After you check your programs to be sure they all function, then you can do another nandroid deleting the earlier one right after installing velocity, also in Titanium delete all backups (everything) then re-backup everything, after that you should be good to go. Just remember though to read up on any ROM you plan to install and make sure it's 2.2 based otherwise you're looking for trouble, Right now Velocity1.0 and 1.1 are the ones I know are out there Stormdroid is coming hopefully soon and Velocity1.2 is in the works, also coming soon. Have fun

 

Most will tell you that once you get recovery to stick (the alternate Amon-ra one) then delete Rom Manager. Anytime you use Rom Manager you usually have to flash recovery 3 to 4 times before it finally sticks. I keep the free version only because it is easy to wipe the download cache from it. I had to flash my recovery 3 times before it finally stuck. I've never heard of any premium Roms available through it. Velocity 1.1 in my opinion is the best out there right now, just be sure to update the scripts.

 

Go to the velocity toolkit then terminal emulator. Once that opens type in velocity it should announce an availiable update from there automaticly

 

Unless your using clockwork mod recovery to flash roms, rom manager isnt needed... thats just my personal opinion...
