What is preferred bootstrap or safestrap?

[mattlgroff]

What is preferred bootstrap or safestrap?

SafeStrap is what I always use. Bootstrap used to be dangerous, but with fastboot files it isn't. SafeStrap is nice because if your ROM doesn't work you can always go back to your non-safe stock ROM and be fine when you are away from the computer.

RazrX v1.1 is a great ROM and it will actually even install over 1.0 with no wipes at all needed, but not recommended.

[chefed24]

Thanks can't wait to get home and load this.

Any known issues? DarkestSpawn had a post detailing 3 issues testers were experiencing previously.

"CAUTION!!!! MAKE SURE THE ROM IS ON SD CARD EXT BEFORE BOOTING INTO RECOVERY!!!!"

Why?

[SoLongSidekick]

Thanks skiwong.

Thanks Th3ory, I hope you continue your awesome work as it is always greatly appreciated. Take care.

[pattersonx]

so far so good installed and working now to install backed up apps. Thanx for all the hard work!!

[TwoBuells]

cool!

downloading now

"CAUTION!!!! MAKE SURE THE ROM IS ON SD CARD EXT BEFORE BOOTING INTO RECOVERY!!!!"

Why?

The internal memory is /sdcard, while the external card is /sdcard-ext. If you had the file on /sdcard, booted into recovery, and wiped you would not longer have the ROM waiting to flash (would have just been wiped). It is meant as a reminder to this effect I believe.

[StigmaShadow]

If I app2sd all my apps can I sd2phone them back? Or will I lose -everything- installing this ROM? Never upgrade rom before (noob).

With an app2sd setup not 100% of the app necessarily moves. The goal of app2sd is to minimize internal usage, not entirely eliminate it. Also, the reference to that location in the OS would be missing. Better off grabbing Titanium Backup and creating backups of your important data with it, then restore the data after the flash.

Just don't wipe data before you flash. Its compatible flashing over RazrX 1.0 without wiping. Titanium backup can restore apps+data I am not familar with apps2sd and sd2phone.

Already up and running! Thank you DroidTh3ory & Skiwong20!!

Any chance at a hash code before I start flashing this? Here's what I've got.

Data wipes don't wipe /sdcard/ though, you have to specifically go and wipe it. And bootstrap/safestrap have sd and sd-ext support. I don't get it

Could be baked into the ROM. I've never built a recovery flashable before, and don't care to check into where the instruction set is placed in them.

[AsosaYoung]

OK I might try this.

[snives]

Anyone get some file hashes I can compare against yet?

I'm just wondering if someone could please post the moto blur services link please?

[weaponx]

Ok, the OP says to wipe data and cache. Matt says no wipe. Can we please get clarification? If OP needs to be updated then please do so

It's always good to start fresh with a wipe. This is why it is in the OP instructions. Nothing "NEEDS" to be updated. If you are running the V1.0 of Razrx, then you might choose to "NOT" wipe. If you want the best chance of clean install, then wipe.

I was able to install 1.1 on top of 1.0 with no errors and I didn't wipe. Kept all apps/data on it. Up to you if you want to wipe or not. I recommend always wiping, but sometimes it's a hassle.

EDIT: 200th Post!

[weaponx]

Well stated. Thanks. I'm wiping. any chance the old blur zip will work?
