the keyboard settings are only in china language, i wane have my keyboard in german language, is this possible? wich of these chinese sings is for the german ones?
[Desire Android Development] dur09:
i dont understand why chinese even post somethin...we cant give them feeling of a democracy!
[Desire Android Development] Kickasskev:
Sounds like a great rom if we can get the chineese data removed or translated to english.

Does the 720 camcorder work on this??????
[Desire Android Development] howdid:
it sounds amazing will flash it ! Edit: download is slow :S
[Desire Android Development] Mystenes:
I disagree, Chinese signs are everywhere, no matter which language is selected.
[Desire Android Development] buzzboy:
+1, Agreed, needs better translation.
[Desire Android Development] djroobs:
just go to language setting..choose languages instead of chinese choose german...then you can see in the keyboard there'll be en and german together :)

Hi there,

just flashed v3.4 and phone doesn't boot post the splashscreen from alpharev any more... anyone got the same problems? my sd is partioned with 2 parts, first fat32 - second ext3 1gb...

any hints?=)

Thanks!

Edit:

Fixed.... working now. Seems like my hboot flash before went wrong...
[Desire Android Development] m3ta:
The thing is, you need to know chinese to know where the option of changing to english IS.

So, locale/region was not properly detected, and i'm too old to learn a new language. Sorry, but at least for me, it is kind of unusable and it was a loss of time, as it didn't really follow the promises made on the OP.
[Desire Android Development] elaurens:
Hello,

Is it me or am I the only one who's feeling that v.3.4 is a bit slower than v.3.3 used to be? I could flash v.3.3 as it has S2E working, but battery life appears to be even better w/ v.3.4 (biggie for me!).

Btw, thanks for the rom! Flashed it and haven't looked back since then.
[Desire Android Development] m4a1rifle:
The Hiapk only has the option to show english apps, not changing the locale to English... everything else stil displayed in chinese
[Desire Android Development] gautam.malik:
I second your opinion. 3.4 is noticeably slower than 3.3.

But that's not the reason to move away from this rom.

The main problems are

1. I didn't like the HiApk keyboard, it has chinese characters and very different from GB keyboard.

2. It's too bloated, even more bloated than CM. I want stock AOSP experience.

I have moved back to Oxygen.
[Desire Android Development] gautam.malik:
Suggestions.

Hi djroobs,

I have some suggestions to improve this rom further.

1. I understand that HiApk rom is for speed and stability, i.e. for everyday use.

But I would klike to keep the ROM as much close to stock aosp as possible.

Will it be possible for your to remove all unwanted apps and settings not required in general?

Apps which are available in market can be downloaded by the users, there is no need to include them in the rom and bloat it.

2. Pre-packaged chinese based apps such chinese market etc. can be removed. You can provide mods for users if they want such apps.

3. Please provide mods to replace the current HiApk keyboard with stock GB keyboard and HTC_IME. Although you may like it, the current HiApk keyboard does not give the stock experience.

4. To decrease the rom size further, you may remove the wallpapers and live wallpapers. The damn solid, stable and fast roms such as Oxygen, Redux and Amethyst fit in merely 50-55 MB and HiApk needs 90 MB.

5. You can replace the ADW.launcher with the stock launcher, and let the users decide what launcher (from market) they want to use as default.

Cheers!
[Desire Android Development] vbeli:
I agree with you +1
[Desire Android Development] vbeli:
BTW the rom is almost perfect
[Desire Android Development] dur09:
to 4 and 5- this rom is based on CM7....

and 1-3- yeah remove that chinese crap, i guess no one uses them
[Desire Android Development] Vuska:
4. I think you can remove it manually before you flashed it. I always do this so it can fit my custom Hboot. :)

5. Agree...
[Desire Android Development] gautam.malik:
Yeah, this we/other-users have to do this manually, every time the rom is updated.

I would prefer the structure to be the cleanest AOSP and we users make all kinds of personal adjustments.
[Desire Android Development] gautam.malik:
We know that this rom is churned out from CM7.

But see, GingerVillian is also carved out from CM7. It has the default GB launcher.

GV users are very happy with the rom.
[Desire Android Development] djroobs:

download problem

i tried 3x download v3.6, always stopped at 40+%. or mediafire keeps looping. new link or...?
[Desire Android Development] Mystenes:
I have tried that ROM for two days. I must say few words about it.

1. ROM is laggy. Even changing launcher to Zeam Launcher didn't helped. Turning off some graphical features like dithering and animations have no influence on lagging.

2. Battery drain is above normal, Oxygen and Redux are significantly better.

3. I have removed alot of hidden apps, and i was able to fit that to hboot smaller than CM7, but turning off moving apps to class10, also didn't helped with lagging.

4. For those who will want to test that ROM with Ginger keyboard, i have good news. Installing apk from SD works fine, and predictions is fully supported.
[Desire Android Development] djroobs:
issues will be solved soon :)
[Desire Android Development] Mystenes:
Which issues will be fixed?

I have mentoined two that are not easy to remove, and i dont believe that they will be removed.

Cyanogen is not a good base to cook anything, so everything that is taking CM7 as a base will be not as good as barebone ROM's like Oxygen, Amethyst or Redux.

i will wait :) in the meantime i have my own Redux MOD as a dailyusage ROM.
[Desire Android Development] lerutis:
Been using this for 2 days now and its amazing fast, acctualy i dont feel the same speed with oxy/redux.

Smooth, fast, no loading times at all, no laggs, love the hiapk dialer etc.

Perfect, hope battery is nice aswell in the long run.
[Desire Android Development] djroobs:
great to hear that bro....if you get any issue let me know..'ll try to help ...keep using and keep in touch :)

awesome rom anyway :)
[Desire Android Development] djroobs:
use honeycomb theme
[Desire Android Development] p00ltergeist:
Are the installation steps the same as written to v.3.7?

thanks!
[Desire Android Development] djroobs:
yes bro..should work in the same way
[Desire Android Development] djroobs:
for the themes ..you should just download the apk and install the apk normally,after installing better you move it to phone memory.so every time after restarting the phone you needn't choose it again
[Desire Android Development] p00ltergeist:
ah.. thanks for the help man, its first time flashing and hiapk is my choice of rom :)

[Desire Android Development] dunstan92:
and i end up wiping all data and restore nandroid backup. apparently im stuck in the why so serious page. what should i do next?
[Desire Android Development] djroobs:
mount the sd card on pc,save all data you need,delete others.now try to flash and there you go...........

alright ....save all data in pc...format sd card..try to make a clean flash bro...it should work...coz before releasing any version i try atleast 4-5 times and recheck with the errors....there's no problem with the rom...if anyone else having issues plz lemme know asap.
[Desire Android Development] buzzboy:
Try and redownload the file again,

Which recovery are you using? Use CWM 3xxx. If you are using AmonRa, turn off Signature verification.
[Desire Android Development] TEAM17:
Great rom

A little feedback from France :)

I tested many roms but I must admit this one is the fastest and the most responsive I have had.

Congratulations for the job you did!

However, I have some Chinese parts in the keyboard :-/

I might change the keyboard, the one included has good features but the keys are smaller than the HTC stock keyboard.

[EDIT]

Can't find some apps in the Android Market: tweetdeck, sncf direct... strange :-/

[/EDIT]

/team
[Desire Android Development] djroobs:
thnx for the feedback bro..yup,you can change the keyboard,but hiapk is always going on with pinyin IME,ppl here like it for easy chinese writing,anyway you cant find those apps coz some apps are removed to make up more space,commonly used apps are still there.welcome once again :)
[Desire Android Development] lagu805:
just tried this ROM yesterday and realized there are some applications I couldnt find on the market

I tried searching for twicca, twitter for android and movies (by flixter)..

even when i tried to restore from titanium backup, it just failed to restore

anyone can confirm with this? not sure if it's something to do with the ROM, or the applications not compatible..

another problem I have is, gmail label will not open.. it's just 'loading conversation' all the time.

please confirm :)
[Desire Android Development] lagu805:
yap.. cant find some apps.. im with you on that
[Desire Android Development] klaverand:
First of all I love the rom :) It's definitely one of the best.

In you new version (3.9) both ADW and Skype process stop working. Skype just stop working when I trying to logon, and ADW just stop randomly. Any solutions?
[Desire Android Development] djroobs:
was it a fresh flashing or flashed over old one?

if it was fresh...then try skype new version...and if you are using ADW stock one with this rom...i think if should work properly...
[Desire Android Development] klaverand:
It is a fresh install, and i using the stock version.
[Desire Android Development] lagu805:
in case you are all interested, this was caused by saymyname (if you check the read gmail), or gmail widget by launhcerpro.. if you remove the widget, it should be fine...
[Desire Android Development] djroobs:

[Desire Android Development] jeroen48:

Can you post a new one? thank you in advance.

[Desire Android Development] jeroen48:
Thank you, flashing ROM now... Full wipe first hehe :D
[Desire Android Development] djroobs:
great and after flashing help me with one thing,let me know how much free space you got after first starting,and if the things are working well,and also the update script worked well..coz my desire isn't with me now...my bro took it outside before the second flashing...anyway cheers
[Desire Android Development] jeroen48:
OK, will post the results after i'm finished. Currently making a nan + ext backup and after that will wipe and flash the ROM.
[Desire Android Development] djroobs:
great......
[Desire Android Development] jeroen48:
Eeeuhm... I did a nandroid backup + ext and then a full wipe.

Then i flashed the rom, rebooted and now stuck at the HTC Logo for a while.

The previous rom was Froyo (Starburst) Data2SD (EXT4), do i need to repartition or something? Thank you in advance.
[Desire Android Development] djroobs:
better not to use partition bro....flash via clockworkmode ....
[Desire Android Development] jeroen48:
I don' t have clockworkmod, using Amon Ra Recovery.

Flashed it and it is still stuck at HTC Logo.
[Desire Android Development] djroobs:
try to reflash..just try the way you flashed previous hiapk roms ...should work
[Desire Android Development] jeroen48:
I tried to reflash didn' t work, still stuck at HTC logo.

I then flashed the original Cyanogen MOD, this worked...

I know try another flash over the Cyanogen mod..

Fingers crossed... ;)
[Desire Android Development] jurajdrobec:
hi all, most probably a stupid question, but is this ROM usable for Desire Bravo only?

as I know Bravo was the old codename for Desire, or? :confused:

thanks
[Desire Android Development] jeroen48:
Yes Bravo is HTC Desire ;)
[Desire Android Development] jeroen48:
@djroobs

Hope you can fix this one, i flashed 2.3.3/v3.3 this worked fine.

After i flashed the new 2.3.4 and stuck at htc logo.

This update is not working???
[Desire Android Development] swcom:
djroobs

This ROM is not working; I flash it over Ginger Villain 2.3; hanging at HTC initial screen.

Swcom.
[Desire Android Development] PashaK:
Agreed. Stuck at boot logo also.
[Desire Android Development] kev94:
Might be the same problem as with LeeDroid. To use this sense ROM, it's necessary to flash a "ext alignment" zip before flashing the ROM itself. Maybe it'll work here.
[Desire Android Development] jeroen48:
This could be true.

Somebody can confirm this?

Is it safe to flash the allignment ZIP from leedroid?

I flashed the Hiapk V3.3 and this works great, i' ll wait for djroobs. :cool:
[Desire Android Development] djroobs:
alright people.i was out to some functions...checking it soon..
[Desire Android Development] djroobs:
ok wait...i gonna provide the original link soon and giving mirror from mediafire again with original version......and SV version gonna be checked now
[Desire Android Development] jeroen48:
Ok that will be nice... Running 3.3 now, works great... I' ll wait till it is fixed... ;)
[Desire Android Development] djroobs:
ok all......link re-updated with version :

SV v3.10 will be releasing later on with after i'm done with some more updating.....(not atleast with in 2 weeks) this is totally stable original version of hiapk.....hope you all gonna love it.
[Desire Android Development] jurajdrobec:

[Desire Android Development] djroobs:

Then installed this rom and it boots perfectly and is very fast.

I try to install for example WhatsApp and my Device reboots, I try installing Applanet and it restarts, Do we need the N1 hboot or the CM7 one? Now using the N1 hboot but it restarts...

Hope someone fixes this, this rom is great for the rest!

[Desire Android Development] bobbenedetti:
YUK!

I tried to install 3.6 twice and finally after reading 27 pages of postings I found that I should use n1 hboot..this despite several claims of CM7 works in previous posts.

So I installed n1 and 3.6 finally booted..in Chinese..no big deal just change language..then while I was entering my google credentials the phone went into a slow bootloop..stay stable for a bit then reboot.

That's when I gave up..there are way too many ROMs that work I don't need to waste my time with one that isn't even close to stable.

Sorry
