Hello!
I have very big problem.. I don't have any launcher on my Defy. I have installed newest ROM (from yesterday), but that piece of crap hasn't got any launcher. My phone stucks on window "comunicating with server. Pleasde wait." What can I do to solve it ? How Can I install any launcher?
Have you adb connection? If yes then install via 'adb install path/app.apk' a launcher like adw. Then you can install an another one through the market

Have you wiped after flashing?
You need to boot into revoery and select the wipe/data option.
Done. I have wiped it through bootloader mode

Just as titled. From pi crust to stock using motor helper. I noticed it did not delete all my apps. I installed go launcher. It failed so I tried again. It said successful but I pressed home and was sent to a black screen :-( should I factory reset? Anything I can do in adb shell? I'm using my backup phone for now and I'm open to suggestions.

Flash a fruitcake or any other rom.... make sure to wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition & dalvik cache in CWM before flashing. Also make sure your using ROM Racers latest CWM version. If you have a micro SD card, you can put your flashing .zips on there to flash.

Its no longer rooted or unlocked.. going to pudding route. Pre-rooted and has unlock script. Im going to stick to the stock rom though.
Just hoping maybe there was a script I could have ran to remove the go launcher. I don't understand why its not asking me which launcher to use.
Wow same problem. Took the SD card out and the phone will boot but I get errors about go launcher and I can't go home. Somehow I got the browser to open so I'm trying to download and install a launcher.
I was able to uninstall go launcher and now the phone is working... hmmm I thought a 1.5 MB sbf flash deleted everything!
Ok guys n gals
I have an Xperia X10 which is locked to the Three network. I have rooted it and also installed xrecovery using the latest flashtool.
I have installed the link here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1353584 to enable me to run MIUI ROMS.
Basically it is for locked boot loaders and installs:
CWM5 and LockedBL.zip.
I have downloaded Xperia_MIUI_Engineering V02 via CWM5 doing a factory reset and clearing all user data and Dalvik cache beforehand..
Now.. ROM work fine great on everything except..... ha ha making a phone call!!
I have signal everything etc but when I go into an existing contact I get an Android crash..
"The process android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again"
The options are then Force Close or Report to MIUI which I have done both.
Any ideas anyone?

well, is usual that you have some bugs using roms with the locked bootloader, try different rom or FIX PERMISSIONS via Root explorer.
Im using MIUI Oodie Prime and i have to say that is beautiful, try that one, it is more stable than Engineering
I tried the Oodie Prime..after a factory wipe, cache etc.. Now after installation I get the 'Sony Ericsson' startup, the (CWM5 Recovery) XDA Developers has disappeared so I can no longer boot back into CWM5 Recovery and I now have it stuck on the Oodie Startup screen and no further. I have to remove battery to reset and then rebuild with generic Android 2.3.3 etc.. and re root and xrecovery..
Try a different kernel, I had the same issue, you can use either oodies fxp kernel or doomlord v06 kernel. I've tried both and prefer the doomlord one.

Okay I fixed it for all of the ROMS that I was trying Doh.. I was installing the LockedBL.zip before the ROM..didn't read the instructions thoroughly..Works perfect now with a full wipe and ROM install and LockedBL.zip AFTER the ROM install
Will close the thread now.. Thanks for all your help.

Hello all,
Sorry that i have to post this out of the thread as i cannot post on the development thread for this rom.
I have a Samsung S2 which is rooted. With the release of Foxhound Revolver Ocelot, i tried upgrading from the previous release Foxhound sniper wolf. However i had this issues with the upgrade. I then also tried fresh install but too had problems, i tried for more than 10 times so this is roughly what i gotten
Steps for Upgrading
1. Went into recovery mode and Wipe cache and also wipe dalvik cache
2. Installed from External SD card, Aroma launcher ran and choose siyah kernel and Touchwiz S3 and choose custom install where I chose all applications.
3. Installed ok, phone rebooted and then ran the upgrade applications.
Upgrading symptoms.
a. Either it hang at the boot rom page. Force reboot and it run upgrade applications again
b. When it booted up again, i got an error android.phone not responding and i had to reboot since nothing will be displayed (black screen with notification). Tried fixing permissions in the recover mode didnt work.
c. a few times even when i chose Touchwiz launcher during installing, when it managed to boot up it gave me Apex launcher. When this happen it was very buggy (no input)
I then decided to try a fresh install
Steps Fresh install
1. Boot into recovery mode and factory reset , wipe cache and dalvik cache
2. Install rom and choose siyah, touchwiz s3 as default launcher then installed all software from custom installation and reboot to the wizard process
3. Once after wizard mode reboot and wipe cache and dalvik cache
Fresh install issues
a. It hangs at the end of wizard setup and cannot proceed once the setup is done. When the happens wipe cache and dalvik cache doesnt do anything to help. (meaning if the phone fails at setup wizard i have to repeat the install process. but before that i need to wipe the internal storage)
b. Once i wipe the internal storage, installation and going to the setup wizard is good. Touchwiz launcher also works perfectly. However i am faced with another issue. I am using Mybackuppro to back my data and apks. I did attempt to install superuser and make sure in extweats my phone was rooted before continuing..
What happen is that I can restore my sms/mms/contacts/ but if i reboot the sms icon will disappear and then be re-recreated again (funny symptom)
For mybackup pro app data + apks restore, i can restore only apps but not data. If i try that the phone will reboot. I wrote to the mybackuppro developer but they told me it had something to do with the ROM, not their software.
So at the moment i am not able to use the new rom due to the above problems and i am back on sniper wolf rom..i can only use the new rom if i dont want to port my apk data over, something which i am not willing to do n ow. Was wondering if anyone faced the same issues and managed to work through these problems and can offer some advice?
Thank you.
Hello,
i'm having the same issue. I did a fresh install following all the steps, but the rom freezes after i setup my google account. Then, it reboots and the launcher seems to don't work. I tried with touchwhizz as default, nova launcher and even apex launcher. I just can't get this rom working.
Thank you for this awesome rom anyway, sniper wolf is fantastic. But if anyone knows how to solve this please help me.
Sorry for my English.
Here is a little help if anyone is interested to get this ROM to work.
Here is what i did...
Wiped data etc
Flashed ROM
Rebooted
Completed Setup
Selected option 3 from display and buttons menu
Rebooted into recovery
Flashed mod pack
Booted into ROM
Downloaded Apex launcher from market
Set as default launcher app
Reboot into recovery again
Flash clean_up.zip
Reboot
This worked because the clean up script deletes the HTC gallery and "rosie.apk" so after flashing the clean up the rom cant boot (no launcher)
By installing Apex before hand, the ROM boots after the clean up
Not saying this is the CORRECT way, this is just what i did, Cheers.
And thanks for an awesome ROM man.

So here's what happened:
1. I unlocked the bootloader.
2. Flashed Nemesis Kernel using Command Prompt on PC.
3. Flashed Honami V2 ROM (without making a backup -__-) tru CWM. Wiped cache, dalvik cache, wipe data/factory ___, even tried reflashing the ROM but no luck.
4. And now I'm stuck with the boot logo. (where it shows "May the source be with you")
Can any body help me or have anyone had this issue? I also tried flashing the stock rom using Flashtool but it gives me the error that my drivers aren't properly installed. (and I've tried reinstalling the drivers.)
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I just want to bring my Xperia U back to life.

Get a zip of stock based rom, mount usb from cwm and transfer it to internal storage. Flash it. You should be fine.
If that doesn't work, install flashtool drivers, get into flashmode and then flash a stock rom. Root it and install cmw via flashotool.
You will be ok... I have at least one soft brick every 3 months... But i'm just plain stupid sometimes...
