Ultimate Droid Froyo eXtreme 8.0.0 - Droid

Oddly enough, it didn't give me the same problem. I'm not sure what the deal was... maybe it's just a glitch that makes it a little laggy? Did you try rebooting when you had the issue before?

yeah rebooting is the only way it does change for me. which is not that big of a deal because i don't change my wallpaper very often, but i'll mess around in there and see if i can figure it out. thanks for your help!
 
Still Get Bootloop, I Wiped Caache Then Installed, But I Havent Wiped Data.
Its Says On Clockwork Tht It Would "Factory Restore" It.
Will tht Get Rid Of My Phone #?
 
You need to do a factory reset, wipe cache, then flash the ROM. It will not get rid of your phone number. If it did, we would all be screwed. lol

To get rid of the phone number you need to call Verizon and have them assign the phone to a different number.
 
Just my 2 cents on this Rom ...I have been very loyal to the cyanogen roms and i wanted to see what all the hype was about and in my opinion there pretty much the same, but UD8 is alot faster and smoother . Also the script features are a bonus! Plus UD rom comes pre themed. So to me this rom is a upgraded CM rom..very impressed. As far as installation i just downloaded it and ran clockwork ..i wiped data and cache 3-4 times and installed 1000mhz kernel but that kernel seem to to suck the life out of my battery and it also caused my phone to lock up. So i installed p3 LV1000 kernel and all is well..I got a 1421 quadrant score on my first try! I also went withthe pre theme. The only issues i have found with this rom is that it does a while to lock in on your GPS location and sometimes the 3g drops to 1x but pops right back to 3g. Im looking foward to giving UD9 a shot when it is relesed!
 
I like the ROM a lot, but I can't seem to find a kernel that doesn't cause bootlooping. Tried Chevy 1.25 and P3 1.0.
 
You guys rock. Thanks so much. I got Chevy med volt, 1.1 and set it to 900. Gonna run it for a while, then see if I can bump it up to 1.0. I think any higher is just going to cause me trouble. Thanks again guys!
 
Loving this ROM. It's been the best Froyo ROM I've ever used.

But I am having a few issues. Didn't know if these were isolated or if you guys are having these problems:

-Data connection randomly shuts off. I still have cell signal but 3G just disappears, sometimes for a few minutes at a time.

-GPS won't obtain a lock. I get endless 'Searching for GPS' (for several minutes). A reboot usually resolves this.

I'd say the data connection problem is the bigger issue.

I've been having that as well with the 3G going off and sometimes my signal goes completely updated the radio hoping that would solve it but still have issues.

I'm having the same issues. Is there a fix?
 
I posted this in another thread but thought someone here could help:
Can anyone shed any light on the issues we are having with getting stuck at the boot animation after rebooting? I've tried flashing at least 20 times with up to 10 wipes and cache clears each time, tried both restore options, 3 different kernels (including the stock one) etc... every time it boots up fine the first time, but when I try and reboot it gets stuck at the boot animation. I've asked on multiple forums and no one has an answer but there are a bunch of us having the issue.
I've tried with both 8.0 and 8.1...
 
wazzelby: Just to warn you, the mods tend to frown on cross-posting. :) A bit of friendly advice from someone who has seen a lot of negative reaction for this while reading through the threads.

What exactly were you trying to do? It might help if you list what you've done so far to get to where you are.
 
Sorry about the cross posting - I'll make sure I don't do that again ;)
As for what I'm trying to do - I've been trying to load the UD extreme 8 coming from CM6. I tried doing with sprecovery, and also clockwork mod recovery. I've tried it through ROM manager and also from the boot menu itself. I've tried wiping data/cache and factory reset/wipe up to 10 times each before flashing the ROM. Each time I can get it load the ROM the first time, then after I try and reboot the phone it gets stuck at the boot animation. I've tried running fix permissions before the reboot, letting it sit for an hour before rebooting, loading a kernel that I know works on my phone before reboot...
The problem is that I'm not the only having this issue, but no one seems to have any ideas on why. I've never had any issues loading any other ROM, my phone actually plays nice with just about anything I throw at it.
