Again, my understanding is that the PR1.2 image, on first boot, will copy stuff to the eMMC. Maybe the eMMC flash doesn't boot all the way, but it confused me multiple times when it resets the device and starts the boot process.

You should remove the -R at the end so the device doesn't boot.

eMMC flash process resets the device immediately, without the -R parameter. Perhaps it's the lack of visibility in the boot process that had me confused.

Anyway, do rootfs -> emmc and if that doesn't work, swap it.

And before reflashing, did you remove Call Notify to check if that wasn't a problem?

Ok now i'm extremely confused... rootfs or emmc first? xD

also should i include apps list in the backup?
when i flash emmc the backup file gets deleted too i guess, no?

I would suggest installing autodisconnect for network connections first and see if that helps. Also, if you do decide to flash, do only the firmware, otherwise I would do a complete backup before flashing both emmc an FW. I had the same problem with my battery and this seems to have helped me.

I'm sure callnotify is part of the problem, latest version of it made my device act wierd when recieving calls.

Yes, complete erase. Only your card will survive. Do a full backup somewhere else (or just skip flashing the emmc, there's nothing new in it). I would avoid reflashing if there's hope to fix the problem.

Yes removed it 20 minutes ago, not enough time to feel the difference i guess.

Anyway should i flash or try to fix the problem, if the later then how to?
