Well, close the window, uninstall HTC sync if you have it already. Only driver should be present. Connect the phone and see if it is recognized in win (there should be a sound and notificn icon). If recognized, remove the cable, run revolutionary and retry.

If it still doesnt work, head over to alpharev.nl, download the live CD image, burn it to a cd and reboot to the CD. When it asks you to insert cable, do so. That should work as you seem to be facing driver issues
[Desire Android Development] RevoWution:
Alright guys. I'm gonna head off to bed. Will stick with boring ol' Android 2.2 for the time being and I'll RUU and revolutionary.exe after work tomorrow.

See you boys in this thread tomorrow!! Cheers and night all!! ;)
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Oh well, I'm going to be fully engaged tomorrow.. Hope you get it ready. I didnt know there were still users of fake flash, tbh ;)

[Desire Android Development] jigners:
try repartitioning SDCard with 4Ext as recommended;)
[Desire Android Development] P0yraz:
one off topic question :$

when the device downloads apps from market where do they go? is there any place which it keeps them?
[Desire Android Development] jigners:
in the SD ext partition. I think:confused::p
[Desire Android Development] atuladhikari:
I would gladly make one if i could... Remember i'm a non-techie... :D

The only thing i was taught was how to make ppt slides!!!
[Desire Android Development] P0yraz:
is there any way I can get them before I install new ROM?
[Desire Android Development] atuladhikari:
Use titanium backup if am not wrong...

I never backed any stuff so i dont know much...
[Desire Android Development] atuladhikari:
Looks like u techie's need a non-techie to teach u how to flash a rom!!!

Flowchart to be up and running on monday...

Sorry its sunday tmrw, and i drink even if im in a DRY ****ING STATE!!!

Radio ?

Hi

Successfully moved from Starburst 1.5.0 to Supernova :) All seems to be working fine, early days but I don't expert any problems either :D

One question though - I missed the bit about updating the radio, can I do that now in the same way I installed the ROM (from recovery ?) the instructions refer to something about "fastboot" and the digging I've done seems to point to S-Off ?
[Desire Android Development] PlayPetepp:
When on Starburst or Supernova I always flashed radio trough recovery and never had any problems. Stock hboot has 40mb cache so radio.img can fit and be flashed. I was using clockworkmod recovery 2.5.0.7 and 2.5.1.8. Remember to flash the corresponding ril also.
[Desire Android Development] RevoWution:
Ok I FINALLY got it working :) HOWEVER... My phone is particularly slow when installing, entering apps. I also get a tonne of force closes.

Any idea why? I have a Class 6 16GB card...
[Desire Android Development] P0yraz:
is there anyone to help?!

I just downloaded this ROM and changed my hboot to stock and then changed my Radio to lastest radio (bravo.5.17.05.23) and then tried to flash this ROM with CWM v2.5.1.8 but it shows some error

E:Can't open/sdcard/Supernova_2.0.1.1.5.zip

(bad)

Installation aborted.
[Desire Android Development] carlo0810:
forgot to flash my radio after rru, now i cant flash radio using 4ext, anyone?
[Desire Android Development] RevoWution:
Glad to hear you got the ROM working :) I finally managed to get it working too, however, my phone is really laggy overall and I keep getting force closes.

Takes forever to remove a widget, open applications, etc. Are you experiencing these issues?

With regards to 4ext and flashing radio, what error do you get? :)
[Desire Android Development] carlo0810:
nice to hear yours is working also, but it seems its one problem after the other :), havent checked for lags yet, still need to restore using mybackup, something about GB based recovery, and script amending in recovery when trying to flash the radio.zip
[Desire Android Development] RevoWution:
Hmmm that's strange :) I haven't tried flashing an updated radio yet. Will try later tonight after work.

Yeah, the lag is really annoying. Takes ages to open apps, twice as long to remove widgets/icons from homescreens, Titanium Backup takes longer than ever to restore apps, and among all of this, I get constant force closes cuz the apps are taking that long to open...

Otherwise the ROM looks fantastic. Hoping droidzone or somebody here can shed some light and figure out why and if I'm the only one experiencing this :(
[Desire Android Development] P0yraz:
and also I am looking froward to hear from them too. I want to try this ROMbut I have some problem with it which I said in previous page I hope they help me too!

I also tried to install 4EXTRecovery v2.1.3 and install ROM with it but after flashing it with fastboot commander it doesn't come up!
[Desire Android Development] booce:
Relax lads, the help is back. The slowness and force closes are caused by your sd card. All you can do is try a different card. For best performance use a 4gb class 4.

For problems flashing radios, either use cwm recovery to flash the radio file you have, or get the radio droidzone linked to. Don't touch the ril as I think its already included.

Booce
[Desire Android Development] booce:
P0yraz sounds like you have a corrupt download. Download again and try with the new file.

Booce
[Desire Android Development] P0yraz:
I am sure about the download, last time when I wanted to install the AceSMod007 also I had this problem but after a compelet format of my SDcard fast32 partition I could manage to insatll new ROM but in this one it didn't worked
[Desire Android Development] booce:
Ok P0yraz, Have you checked the MD5 against the file you have? That will really confirm the validity of the file. I see your zip is named supernova_2.0.1.1.5.zip

I have downloaded from all 3 locations today and all my downloads are named SuperNova_2.0.1.1.zip

Just makes me wonder about your file.

Booce
[Desire Android Development] P0yraz:
How should I check the MD5 of my file and it is supernova_2.0.1.1_5.zip cause my downloads stopped due to my terrible internet at time and I managed to download it completely in fifth time is it the problem? should I change it to supernova_2.0.1.1.zip?
[Desire Android Development] booce:
I wouldn't have thought it would cause the problem, but it won't hurt to rename it. On droidzone's download page, there is a file to download called the md5 checksum. Download that.Then download this: http://getmd5checker.com/download/latest/Md5Checker.zip

That's the utility to compare the rom download against the md5 you downloaded. Put the md5 in and point it at the rom and it will tell you if it matches. If it does, you're good to go. If it doesn't, you need to download the rom again.

Booce
[Desire Android Development] P0yraz:
I am so so so so so sorry man but I am completely a newbie here I opened the program and opened the SuperNova_2.0.1.1_5.zip (the file which I have) and it calculated the MD5 sum and gave me this (511E16D6C4B128808A3AC475729FF556) now how should I understand that it is correct or wrong :$ sorry again for too many damp questions

-----EDIT--------

After changing the name to SuperNova_2.0.1.1.zip the MD5 sum is the same!
[Desire Android Development] booce:
No worries P0yraz, what you've told me there confirms that you have a valid file for flashing. It should work. Do you have another sd card you can try? Sounds like you've had problems with the one you're using in the past.

Booce
[Desire Android Development] P0yraz:
Yes I have one but it is just 1GB and I don't think it would be enough to partition it, is it?
[Desire Android Development] booce:
not really :-( You could do it with a 300mb ext4 and a 700mb fat32 just to see if it works but it wouldn't be much use in daily life.

If I were you, I'd get gparted out and repartiton my card from scratch one more time and try it again.
[Desire Android Development] P0yraz:
How can I be sure my ext part of SDcard is 4 and if it is 3 how can do it without repartionining it, cause my laptop has some problem with booting gparted.
[Desire Android Development] booce:
Oh P0yraz , now we're in for some fun :-) What recovery do you have at the moment? Is it CWM or 4extrecovery? You're going to need 4extrecovery to manipulate and see ext partitions from within your phone. See back a few pages for how to install 4extrecovery if you don't have it.

It's so much easier with gparted :-(

Booce
[Desire Android Development] P0yraz:
I have CWM 2.5.1.8 on my phone but at morning I tried to download and install 4extrecovery through fastboot but after instaling the recovery my phone stocked in black screen and recovery didn't come up I downloaded 4extrecovery 4EXTRecovery_v2.1.3_bravo is this the right file?
[Desire Android Development] booce:
It sounds like the right file although I used the 2.1.0 version as that is the latest stable one.
[Desire Android Development] colinmc8:
Sorry more noob q&a how do I know if my hboot is stock? Also what is the minimum wipe you can do to install the Rom?

I here a lot about installing radio, is this just the fm radio? Last one do I need to install a script with the Rom? I know all the information is already in the thread but I'm not sure if it is necessary or if it applies to me. Thanks
[Desire Android Development] P0yraz:
I am formatting my SDcard to try it with mini tool the program which I used to partition my SDcard last time and see if it works again or not!
[Desire Android Development] booce:
How to tell if hboot is stock:

Turn off phone. Hold down volume button down and press on button.

Top of the screen tells you if you are S-off and which hboot version you are on.

Minimum wipe possible is no wipe at all coming from previous droidzone roms.

Flashing the radio is not the FM radio, it is the radio that makes your phone a phone. You need to flash the correct one which is on droidzones download page.

You need to install a script if you are S-on. You do not need to install a script if you are S-off.

If that helped you, click the thanks button!

Booce
[Desire Android Development] colinmc8:
Thanks Booce, I know how to do the volume down thing but would should or shouldn't it say if I have stock? It's got alpharev at the very top and hboot version is .93 or something
[Desire Android Development] booce:
That's fine, 0.93 is stock, it's also what I'm on :-)
[Desire Android Development] booce:
Hi Guys, got a pre cooked UOT Kitchen battery mod for you all. If you just want to replace this ROM's battery meter with one that shows a percentage from the kitchen, grab the file below.

http://www.alexandhelen.com/uotbattery.zip

File should be 3.34MB

MD5 is

7DC86CC2F213EAD1CA95BBF97C0E03C1

It looks like this:

http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?q=uo...&h=597&ei=FO9AToUTwsGEB-3F7KkJ&zoom=1&chk=sbg

Drop that on your sd card, boot to recovery and flash it.

I just thought this might save some of you time with the kitchen as it can be slow and difficult to figure out.

Flashed and tested with CWM and 4EXTRecovery, works with either.

Once again, this is just a battery mod, nothing else. It is for SuperNova 2.0.1.1

If you don't like the style of it, head over to the kitchen and cook your own :-)

Enjoy,

Booce
[Desire Android Development] carlo0810:
Where can i find the link droidzone posted? On the website itself?
[Desire Android Development] booce:
linky

Should do it. I have a feeling you'll need to flash that with cwm though...
[Desire Android Development] carlo0810:
i can fake flash cwm right? since i am now on 4ext, and this radio doesnt work, amend script still
[Desire Android Development] booce:
Yeah a fake flash should be enough.
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Yea, you're one of those unfortunates with an incompatible sdcard.. Cant do much about it.. Try another card if you have one

Funny how one overlooks the simplest of things! Turn off signature verification in your recovery!!

AdamG's radio zip is written in the older Amend language incompoatible with the newer Edify recoveries. I could write a script to flash it, but since flashing a Radio in recovery esp by inexperienced users is a potential cause of bricks, I wont do it. Stick with your radio. There's not much of a difference!
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
I request those who have managed to install the Rom with good performance, to kindly answer this poll about microsd cards.. It should help others to evaluate and buy compatible cards

http://supernova.droidzone.in/category/polls/
[Desire Android Development] booce:
Hi droidzone, D'oh! I forgot all about signature verification! Glad you're here.

I only reccommended a 4gb class 4 as I have a 16gb class 6 and that performs waaaaaay slower than my 4gb class 4. Unuseably so. Same is true for two other 16gb class 4 's I have. Too slow to be of use. I have two 4gb class 4's and they both fly along. Just my experience I guess. It seems to me that the size of the card is as problematic as the class. 16gb seem to be very slow regardless of class. I guess a 4gb class 6 would rock :-)

Booce
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
My 16 GB Class 4 3CPro, which incidentally is the cheapest card you can buy on Ebay, rocks! Just lucky I suppose.. :D
[Desire Android Development] booce:
Don't suppose you have a link to ebay to that card do you?

Ooo, while you are around, which option for location do I need in the UOT to replace the boot animation?

Thanks,

Booce
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
It seems to have been delisted. Weird..
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Upload framework-res and SystemUI. Mendozinas might add it later. Requested.
[Desire Android Development] booce:
Yup, I've uploaded okay, but when you are choosing to replace the boot animation, you have a choice of four locations.

data/local

system/customize/resource

system/media cyanogen

system/media galaxy GB

Any ideas?
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Try data/local first, then system/customize/resource. Going out..So leave any questions you have here. Will answer later..
[Desire Android Development] dawson258:
hi, been trying to install this rom however i'm stuck at boot after applying the data2sdenabler

to start i partitioned sd card into fat32 + ext4

booted recovery, performed all wipes and installed the rom

entered language + wi fi details then let the rom stabilize

booted recovery and flashed the data2sd enabler zip

booted phone and stuck at htc screen before quietly brilliant?

could anybody help, what exactly am i doing wrong/missing?
[Desire Android Development] booce:
Hmmm don't know. I'd wipe my cache and reflash the dat2sd then reboot and see what happens.
[Desire Android Development] dawson258:
thx for the reply, tried that and still stuck at htc boot without any leds.. :confused:
[Desire Android Development] dawson258:
maybe i partitioned wrong, i remember setting both as primary, however i didnt add a linux swap partition?
[Desire Android Development] booce:
No need, just fat 32 and ext4 should be all you need.

Booce
[Desire Android Development] dawson258:
hmm i really dont know whats wrong,

ive tried the process again and now stuck on the htc logo, think im going to leave it for 30 minutes, see what happens
[Desire Android Development] colinmc8:
That's really good to know, I have a class 6 but 16gb so I might not take the plunge. I am right in saying this ROM runs from the SD card? If so What happens when you connect to your pc?
[Desire Android Development] dawson258:
35 minutes on htc screen, still no luck :confused:
[Desire Android Development] RevoWution:
I just got back from a double feature (Rise of the Planet of the Apes & X-Men First Class) at my local drive-in theatre. Nearly 5am here now so just thought I'd check on the forum real quick.

Once again, you never fail to impress me with your helpfulness Booce :) Cheers for the info. It's because of your (and of course dz's) advice that I even have S-Off, HBOOT 0.93, 4extrecovery perma-flashed and SuperNova actually running :P Now, on to fixing the lagginess hehe.

What brand card have you got? It looks like I'ma need to get a new card... :P 4gb class 6 methinks.
[Desire Android Development] RevoWution:
Haha looks like we're forever on the same boat. My Transcend 16gb Class 6 seems to be the culprit when it comes to lagginess...

Think I need to get new smaller, slower SD card :P
[Desire Android Development] P0yraz:
and how funny it is that it doesn't work even with turnning that off
[Desire Android Development] dawson258:
tried the whole process again, back from gparted...

still same error of htc screen... argh, checked all md5 sums and signature verification off, still no luck... :-/
[Desire Android Development] booce:
My transcend 16gb class 6 sucks balls. My san disk 4gb class 4 is sweet on this rom. You can use this rom and still mount the sd in windows as the apps live on the ext partition.

Booce
[Desire Android Development] booce:
Dawson can you do a factory wipe and a cache wipe then try a flash of the rom? It should only be on htc screen a max of 10 mins. Any longer and its broken.

Booce
[Desire Android Development] P0yraz:
no way for me yeah? :( I missed this ROM?
[Desire Android Development] dawson258:
that is exactly what i have been doing mate, im stuck on what to do with it? i cant help but think the dataenabler may be faulty :confused:
[Desire Android Development] colinmc8:
Can this rom be installed as normal? I´m not being dependant on the sd card. I would really like to try the official desire gingerbread. Is there another rom that anyone knows of withe the official desire gingerbread with sense?
[Desire Android Development] booce:
Dawson are you

S-on? If so are you adverse to going s-off? If not, use unrevoked to go s-off. Then when you flash the rom you won't need the data installer.

Booce
[Desire Android Development] booce:
Sorry mate what stage are you stuck at? Been helping a few people :-)

Booce
[Desire Android Development] booce:
If you are s-on you can just flash the rom and not the data installer. Then the sd is just storage.

Booce
[Desire Android Development] dawson258:
what is the quickest method of going to s-off mate?
[Desire Android Development] booce:
Google unrevoked or go back a few pages in this thread to go s-off.

Booce
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
For everyone who had the same issue of getting stuck on any screen, this is what you have to do to get any further:

Power off the Desire

Before doing anything else, reboot direct to recovery and flash Getlogs flashable zip

Connect the phone through USB to PC, and get the file /sdcard/data2sd.tar.gz

Attach it here, and let me (and others) have a look at it

Yea, guess that's not funny at all. Do you mean to say it doesnt flash at all even after that step? What recovery do you have then?

If you dont flash data2sd installer, you get Gingerbread without data2sd.. But you will have to remove the file /system/etc/init.d/01data to allow it to go to second boot without issues. Use root explorer

It's Revolutionary.
[Desire Android Development] dawson258:
in regards to revolutionary i get

htc desire (bravo-0.75.0000. android: 2.2. RO405.5)

your device is not supported at this time

i am running starburst lite 1.3.3.3
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Old hboot..

You will have to ruu to the newer hboot corresponding to 2.29.405.5 RUU. Dont ever install the latest GB RUU though.
[Desire Android Development] dawson258:
what exactly does that consist of?, im currently downloading teppic74's rom which has that, but im not sure if installing that would sort it out?
[Desire Android Development] dawson258:
turns out whilst running the RUU i get error 131 because my phone is orange branded, preferably i would like to run supernova s-on.. anybody got any other suggestions?
[Desire Android Development] DroidBois:
Is it hard to migrate to a new card? Can I just copy the EXT4 partition?
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
You dont need S-off to install the rom. As I pointed out, unless you're forthcoming with logs, there is no point in speculation, as that would be useless. There can be an umpteen number of possible causes of an issue. The logical way to arrive at a conclusion is to get the logs and understand them.

Kindly create a new Support Ticket/Post here, and I'll try to help:

Droidzone Support Forum->Help and Troubleshooting
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
See FAQ3 please
[Desire Android Development] DroidBois:
I just heard that this poses a greater bricking risk than a ROM update. Based on my radio version in my signature, is it possible I could see any improvements? Or to others here on the forums, what sort of improvements have you noticed? Or issues, with upgrading your radio version?

Will do, although I tested my Sandisk card and it performed close to a Class 4, I suspect this is causing some lag.
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
There is no risk if:

You are on a GSM Desire and used a Radio meant for GSM Desire and of correct version

Your software drivers are correct and HTC based

You're S-off and applied fastboot to flash it

You checked Radio md5 and it is correct

You dont reboot the phone after update has started

Flashing in recovery is not recommended as there is no knowing what the flashing code may include..
[Desire Android Development] dawson258:
i have eventually got s-off and the rom working succesfully :-D big thanks to booce and droidzone for the informative help :-)
[Desire Android Development] RevoWution:
Hey droidzone. I'm heading out to grab a new SD card soon.

Should I get an SD or SDHC card? I might need to mention that my current Transcend is a micro SDHC. Could that be the reason for the lagginess?
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
It's based on capacity. If b/w 4-32 Gb, it will be a MicroSDHC
[Desire Android Development] RevoWution:
So whether it's an SD or SDHC shouldn't be the cause of my lagginess eh? Two people have stated at your poll that a Class 6 8gb card worked fine for them. Might settle for one of those :)

Will report back later today.
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
There are different standards of cards but unfortunately they dont list that in the package, as I understood. However, if your card was >4Gb, it is HC (high capacity)
[Desire Android Development] tanclo:
Dawson, are you on STOCK HBOOT?

I have to ask the obvious .. it was my mistake last night .. lol
[Desire Android Development] P0yraz:
My phone when goes to stuck hboot it has some errors I think, cause I can't even mount system and then install it, but it has no problem with CM or CM7r2 cause right now I installed AceSMod v29 withouth any problem and droidzone yes it doesn't flash even after doing that (which in fact was disabled when I was trying before) my recovery is CMW 2.5.1.8, I couldn't install 4xtrecovery cause after installing it from fastboot commander when I want to go to recovery from bootloader it stucks on a black page and nothing happens
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
You're already S-off?
[Desire Android Development] P0yraz:
Yes my friend already s-off
[Desire Android Development] P0yraz:
