some of the older releases had issues with battery. Do yourself a favour and switch to the new nightlies. They're much improved.

LOL @ overkill. I'm struggling with my 16gb as it is, keep juggling stuff from card to pc, was actually thinking of a 32gb, but that working is really hit or miss...

What's really overkill is class10. 4 is perfectly fine for the usage model of the blade.

Btw, for anyone interested, i found a decent deal on a verbatim 16gb class4 microsd card on letsbuy. Buy Verbatim 16GB microSD card (Class 4, without adaptor) at Best Price in India - Also find Specifications, Photos, Features & Reviews

Comes to Rs. 869 after applying a 10% off coupon.

Note: i have no idea if this particular card is compatible with the blade, only tried sandisk.

^^ Buy the Verbatim :)

Usually the Class 4 rated ones easily gives write speeds if upto 7-8 MB/s and reads of upto 12 MB/s.

Also 3 years warranty from Accel Frontline (Same as Seagate)

at Rs 870/- its a damn good deal :D

SanDisk though have 5 years warranty are damn slow !

16Gb Class4.

What are the next steps once this Card comes ? Install a partition and install a custom ROM .

Any links for these ?

Mine was gen2 already, i rooted and installed the stable 7.0.3 as on the cyanogenmod help page.

Can you suggest some stable later version which has amrked improvement in battery? Should be stable otherwise as well.

I am also facing random reboots as well, each reboots takes about 10 battery.:\

^^ Question already answered in last 2-3 days. Install the latest nightly build (N209/N210).

@xtremevicky --- Please read last 10-15 pages, if you dont have time its better u stick with stock ROM....its seriously irritating on how long u have been posting about the same thing again and again and ur MicroSD query going on & on !

Err, with cm7, stable doesn't mean stable. just trust us when we tell you to install the latest nightlies.

Or read up about cm7 version naming conventions.

Ok captain, will install the latest nightly, can I backup and restore my apps or will have to install everything anew!

I can't install builds every week, so was asking for the better builds. sorry for bugging so much and thanks for the help :D

edit: and do I have to install CWM again? because Rom manager shows its not installed currently.This is a little confusing.

I've never had much luck with rom manager, so i've always done it the manual way. I think i'm running cwm 3027 and it's fine.

first, make a full nandroid backup of your current rom in cwm. then, backup all your apps for later restore. now, first try flashing the new rom directly over the old one. it should work, but depending on apps there could be issues. if you have problems, first restore your nandroid backup, wipe dalvik, then try flashing over. If that doesn't work, then a full wipe, followed by app restore is the only way.

one step at a time.
