(As has been said before in this thread :)) the Rom probably doesn't include the huge APN database you're used to by know that's in all the custom ROMs.

This means, there is a very high chance you need to enter your own correct APN information after the rom is installed before 3g works.

If you actually have the correct APN information, then this is new to me, it's working fine here.

Apn backup and restore is in the Market, folks. Always keep a back up and you have your apn's back in no time.

I have flashed robo's test rom and it's working very well! however, i have a problem, i couldn't find a way to boot to recovery. Can anyone help?
[Desire Android Development] Zeljko1234:
Another one :D

What I read here in this thread, problem is that phone goes in hibernation not power off. Solution is to turn off fast boot or something else, or pull out battery. I've just read it, I haven't tried this rom.
[Desire Android Development] singlong:
alright, thanks for the help and sorry for my noobness
[Desire Android Development] Pyr0wl:
HTC confirmed at the MWC that the Desire would get a Gingerbread update. Even the UK provider Three said that they received such an update from HTC for internal testing.

You're maybe right when it comes down to the Sense thing though. Maybe we'e just seeing Sense as it will be included in the final update and I'm definitely not getting my hopes up. I'm just thinking out loud based on what I see and experience. Like I said, I could be wrong :)

People shouldn't care about the Sense thing at all, the most important thing about this ROM is the fact that it's gingerbread. We now have an official kernel and some official files which will help dev's to fix some issues we're currently having with other un-official GB ROM's.

Pull battery and then start up by pressing vol down and power ;)

[Desire Android Development] nicklashidegard:
No need to pull battery :)

Just un-tick fast boot in settings/applications

Turn off device, then turn on holding vol down....

OR Even press restart and when screen goes blank, hold in the vol-down button :)

Installing this ROM

I apologize for mentioning what already has been said this, but there has been so much confusion about how this can be installed, so I thought that one mail about what it takes to install this might prevent more questions from people coming into this thread I installed Robociks version ( p 9) yesterday, and it works extremely well. Came from Leedroid v4, installed it as any other ROM (Clockwork 2.5.0.7), did not change radio. No APN, but there are solutions for that, see mails above, or just note your setting before flashing. I needed danish, but some pages back (cannot find it right now, but look for it if you need it) there is a zip that bring in other locales, my danish works like a charm, just needed to be restarted. The result? I am very satisfied. No FC's at all, good battery, it is quick, everything works flawlessly. The video recorder seems a bit better than every els I have seen. The use of battery seems fine. 88MB left with my usual applications.I have nothing else to say but thank you for the intense work with this:)

Thread cleaned.

This thread isn't the place to discuss people leaving, or the current problems with people asking questions over and over.

If people would learn to report a post as soon as they see it's not meant to be here, we could clean up much sooner. Likewise with questions that have been asked many times, ignore them, or point them to the Q&A forum. Flaming isn't productive, and certainly will not educate others as to the correct place to post.

hotmail

its not been said yet but Hotmail active sync is working flawlessly.

i have been using robo's version since it was posted and i have not have a single FC, reboot or even any lag.

battery life is really good.

this is easily the best ROM i have used and i have tried just about them all.:)

Can I choose what kind of ext I create on SD with clockworkmod recovery 2.5.0.7 ?

I think I have ext4 now on SD, and app2sd dont work for me.
[Desire Android Development] daffie:
Apparently this rom doesn't work with ext4, only ext3.
[Desire Android Development] Yod-b:
bad news :(

but thank you anyway :)
[Desire Android Development] squall343:
this is the greatest improvement for me

since last time i use the enhanced email in order to use the activesync

the old sense and the sense hd rom does not work for hotmail activesync also :)

however the bad thing is that it only sync one activesync account unlike enhanced email where you can sync unlimited amount of account

I've noticed the same. However, a reboot seemed to help :)

I also noticed some other flaws but that's all probably due to the fact that it's still a "test" release :P

Can't get back into recovery mode

This is probably a bit of a noob question, but I've loaded this ROM and it's working pretty well. It starts quickly and is pretty fast.

I have CM Recovery 2.5.0.7 loaded, and was previously using CM7 without any issues, so I know about rooting etc (using the easy 'Unrevoked' method). I backed up my phone and did all the necessary things to ensure I could recover if it went badly.

However, after successfully flashing the ROM, I can't make my Desire start up into Recovery mode. If I use ROM Manager, it shows me my backups, offers to reboot into recovery, install .zip file from SD card and all the usual stuff, but it simply does nothing when I make my selection.

I've also tried booting from cold, holding power and vol-down, but that doesn't do a thing..

I have a working phone, but I'm well and truly stuck now. Is there anyone who can help me recover?

Thanks, in advance. I am anticipating a lot of p!ss-taking from you all, too. But, I am where I am, so I'm admitting my ignorance, and hoping for some assistance.

Don't know why it worked from a 'Restart', rather than a 'Power down/Power up' cycle, but I've managed to get it sorted out. Thanks anyway, and feel free to take the mick. DOH!
[Desire Android Development] dexter93:
Take battery out and , insert and power up while holding vol. Down

[Sig] dId you know? If you Insert a Coin on your Desire, then it levels up to HD, Z or S :[/Sig]
[Desire Android Development] Clarkie:
Thanks very much Dex, I had already tried that and it didn't seem to work for me. Maybe I've got fat fingers..

For some reason, holding Power+Vol_Down during the Restart cycles seemed to do the trick. It had no effect in a full power off/on situation. Not sure why, but I'm feeling happier (and more humble) now.

Cheers
[Desire Android Development] andQlimax:
U can also disable htc fast boot mode (that doesn't allow to power off the phone) in the setting..im not sure where at the moment but is possible
[Desire Android Development] fabulous69:
maybe the recovery has been replaced?

Try Power+back, and reflash original stock RUU, reflash recovery and go again!

What about the HTC Weather widget is it finally fixed in this version? Because on FroYo it still happens very often (mainly after installing or updating apps) that the widget is empty and the only solution to get it working again is to either re-add the widget or restart your phone.

Call delay!!!!

############################################

If you're having the call delay problem, especially on a device that is not the

Nexus One, please star the issue here:

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=16230

This is a known bug with Gingerbread, that Google recently declined, saying it was "device specific" (to the Nexus One).

However this problem is also being reportedly widely on the HTC Desire, as well as Samsung Galaxy devices. I have posted a new issue above and not attributed it to a specific device.

Please comment and star this issue. And please specificy especially if your device is not the Nexus One, so that Google gets this message that this is a widespread Gingerbread bug, which has nothing to do with the device.

Thanks.

Maybe google will accept that this issue isnt a device related thing!

No call delay

I've been using this rom (robocik's GingerSense_v1) for 4-5 days and i haven't experienced call delay. From the moment the other person answers, the sound is clear and crisp, without any delay.
[Desire Android Development] ny73r1d3r:
Same here. No delay...whatsoever. (Coolexe's ROM with some tweaked apks) Besides, I haven't heard of delay being present in other devices with gingerbread (eg. N-S). Apparently, that blasted two sec delay causing so much grief and brutal mental abuse was more or less a device-specific bug; and it might well be logical to conclude that HTC somehow managed to fix it with their own kernel patch or framework thingy.
[Desire Android Development] vr5411:
Call delay bug is present on my HTC Desire when running CM7 Final and any previous 15 nigthlies. But when running LeeDroid GB 3.x there is no call delay bug, on same device.

So it is kernel/framework related (originating from AOSP code), and I'm not planning going back to CM7 or any derivate until that bug is beat down.
[Desire Android Development] neodesign:
I confirm having this issue with CM7 official and Oxygen, back to my trusty AuraxTSense 8.4. Hope this issue will be fixed once the final HTC Gingerbread mix is brewed by HTC. It really is annoying!
[Desire Android Development] copas2:
I'm almost perfectly satisfied with one of the rooted froyo sense roms with working openvpn and non-sleeping wifi. The only problem I've always had was the audio quality of the camcorder app. What about that here? Has that improved? 720p is not something I care about. But the phone-like sound of the videos makes me mad. I saw a YouTube clip earlier in this thread which sounded awesome. It states that the audio bandwidth is about 64kbps which is already a great improvement to the 8kbps one. This is the stuff I care about when new releases are coming out. 3D crap doesn't improve my everyday life. :-)
[Desire Android Development] davebugyi:
True, Audio is improved. Using a DHD Froyo port - but better audio there, too - AAC, 64kbps,44 khz (but not in 720p - only lower resolutions, I use 800*480). In Gingerbread, the 720p should be also the same quality.
[Desire Android Development] aeoveu:
noob question: (and first post in the dev forum)

I've been following this thread from day one, and I've got Robokik's version installed (sorry if I've misspelt the name). During the setup, it says that the recommended partition layout is FAT32+EXT3/4.

BUT - the A2SD and other xxx2SD scripts don't work... in my experience, atleast.

Am I doing anything wrong (as in - the wrong script?) or does the rom generally not support such scripts?

Cheers.
[Desire Android Development] commando0:
have u created ext3/4 partion on sd card
[Desire Android Development] aeoveu:
Yup. Ext4. From what I read, it doesn't support ext4, bit when we format the ext partitioning from clockworkmod, it should bring it back up as ext3...except, I have no way of verifying that actually occurs.

And I've been using scripts from different ROMs as well... So... I don't really know of they'll work in the firwt place. :s
[Desire Android Development] copas2:
CM7 has also a bad a2sd script as it tries to mount ext filesystems with the ext3 type specified explicitly. I had to remove that switch from the script to be able to see the partition. This might be the problem here also, although I haven't ckecked.
[Desire Android Development] aeoveu:
Err...which script? Simple2ext on CM7 worked fine. I'm just trying to get this ROM to use the ext3 partition.

Right now, I got rid of the partition and I'm using fat32 solely...no point in keeping a dead ext partition on the card.
[Desire Android Development] copas2:
I mean the default one in the CM7 distrib. Which is: /etc/init.d/05mountsd

The line starts with this

$BB mount ...

...and has a switch for specifying the exact fs type. That -t switch needed to be ripped out of the line. Mount is able to recognize the file system, I never know why it ever needs to be told.
[Desire Android Development] aeoveu:
Alright - you got me. I don't know alot about programming, but I'll take your word for granted :D

But - my original question remains: is there a way to make this ROM an A2SD (or any of it's variants) version?

And - another thing: inRobokik's upload, I can't seem to transfer large amounts of files. For instance, if I want to transfer 100MB, it gets stuck at 4 or 5MB (varies). If I want to transfer tons of songs, it gets stuck half-way. In Windows, the progress bar doesn't move. Nothing. It just gets stuck. I have to force-pull the wire from the USB port to stop the copying process (doesn't work otherwise).

Sigh... I guess the "Desire is the source of all suffering" :S I'd love to move over to another ROM, but I need to be able to save SMS onto my SIM card.

[Desire Android Development] Zeljko1234:
It's interesting to think about upgrade a little bit. AOSP GB rom is quite small, rest of it is HTC Sense. Obviously Sense is not optimized enough. Secondly, HTC really screwed up with internal memory on Desire. Top model shouldn't have that huge fail.

I expect that GB upgrade will be just Android itself, without much Sense upgrade. But for community is enough to give us source of the kernel.

This is making my decision to upgrade to Sensation/Pyramid much easier...all I wanted was GB + latest Sense (not 3.0) on my ol' Bravo :(

For what I've read, our desire was supposed to call bravo, but they thought it wasn't "pretty" enough, kinda like the sensation was about to be called pyramid but not "pretty" enough ;)

So they change it before release

«- It's called the HTC Pyramid. HTC is very fond, as are many manufacturers, of giving its products codenames while in development. The HTC Desire was the HTC Bravo, the Desire HD was the Ace, and so on. So, while it's currently known as the HTC Pyramid, there's an excellent chance that, whenever it arrives, it won't be called that any more.»
