I just took tobi's values directly from his OP-both for the kernel and the app

Thank you. I never used to rely on Autobrightness before (even on Froyo), but I have to check this out!

See if the screen goes fully off (sleeps) while not used. Sometimes some background processes can wake up the screen auto-in that case, while you pull the phone from pocket, it may be getting cancelled.

No idea about that. Tapatalk works for me fine on my site. Dont really have time to look into Admin details of the site.

I have upcoming exams over the next few months. I'm travelling to Chennai for one of them atm. So I wont be answering most questions here/on my forum. As far as support forum on droidzone.in is concerned, it is not a place to ask questions to me and get direct answers. It is a forum akin to XDA where you may discuss the rom with fellow XDA-ians freely.

I spent a lot of time on Rom and support over these few weeks. I need to get back to my studies. My aim was to fix all the pending issues in the Rom, and I have done that, even at the cost of personal matters. Most questions are already answered on the site. Others will be answered by my more experienced users when they get time.

Dont expect me to answer queries. If I feel that some of them are Rom specific and requires a response I may answer them during free time (when I read them). Almost 90% of queries can be solved by reading the pages on the site. The rest can be answered if you ask in the thread. If you still have questions, open questions in the Q & A section. That's how Xda works and has been working all these years.

Spare our (developers') time for development and our real life. Otherwise we tend to get tired of all this and tend to leave.
[Desire Android Development] leecavturbo:
Enjoy your free time Dz. You've been admiral
[Desire Android Development] erklat:
Pretty understandable dz. Still I hope this won't be a farewell. By the time I leave sinking ship with the rest of the rats I hope to see at least one active real developer still with us :D

Godspeed with your exams. I'm in kind of same situation, I have 7 to degree and I'm a ceo of my ltd at the same time, so that will inevitably prolong my graduation.

Hello Droidzone,

can you post the kernel sources? :confused:

Is HTC base 2.6.35.10 patched to 2.6.35.14 with TPW, WifiFix, Battfix Call Record and Two way only? (what TPW mean?) :o
[Desire Android Development] erklat:
Trackpad wake.
[Desire Android Development] roloj:
Try again... I have this problem too... Didn't in 2.0.2.0... But in new rom this happens.
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Love the quote in your signature :D
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Doesnt happen for me. Try a kernel without Trackpad wake?
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Remember that to disable trackpad wake, you can remove the file curcial.oj from your system, rename it, or if you're a pro, edit the values inside

Swyped from my Desire running Supernova Extreme Rom - 450 apps and counting. .
[Desire Android Development] sibere:
Love it too :D
[Desire Android Development] erklat:
Thanx :D

To be honest, I wouldn't have found it if we were short of one more Runnymede thread...

Posted in Droidzone.in - worth reposting here

I love that you really gave it your thoughts!

I did too, and came to the conclusion that /cache is the best place for it. Consider a normal wipe process. Supposing one has corrupted something inadvertently. The first thing that one wipes to do a reinstall is /data (corresponding to /usr and /home on linux). That takes /data out of the question.

The problem with /sdcard (the fat32 partition) is that it not writable during init of ramdisk (when the data2sd scripts actually execute). It is later that system mounts it as /mnt/sdcard and is writable. A second issue is that it will not allow permissions to be set (being a dos partition).

A normal user has no need to wipe cache/dalvik-cache. It is the misconception peddled by certain theme makers (who frankly know nothing about the Android system structure) that makes them do it. Cache seems safest and is not wiped unless one specifically goes and wipes it.

Coming to dalvik-cache, the issue is that during theming, theme makers recommend wiping it under the misconception that wiping is needed to rebuild the system fonts/colors etc. It is not true. Once one flashes a different framework/apk (for theming), at next boot, the dexopt kicks in and rebuilds the specific dk. While wiping dk, one actually wipes dk of those specific dk referenced in Bootclasspath of init. System first mounts MTD as /data. It is only later that it unmounts it to remount ext4. So wiping bootclass dks causes the bootloop as system cant find the required files. This is a problem only in data2sd based fully deodexed systems. A workaround is to keep bootclass frameworks odexed. Another is to tell users not to wipe dk unnecessarily. I chose the latter approach. In case someone wants to wipe dk, it can be done with the DK optimizer, which actually backs up bootclass dks before rebuilding other DKs.

Maybe we'll get to a better solution soon. Keep me posted in case you have more ideas :)

By the way, there is a much more simpler way to do it, which is to actually read the file structure of the ext4 based /data, and find out if data2sd has been installed. The problem is with slow initializing sds. I have had to make the script sleep and loop to re-read the sd to see if it has initialized. That's why I went for toggles to see the status of data2sd installation, rather than actually re-reading file structure. In this way, I can just skip trying to mount the sdcard (ext4 /data) if the toggle says data2sd hasnt been installed,that makes it faster. Else the script needs to loop, and finallt mounts and then analyzes file structure to see if it had been installed.

You're so getting quoted on this next time I do what I do usually :D

SwiftKeyed from my HTC Desire using XDA App.
[Desire Android Development] DonBartal:
Many thanks for your swift response.

I assume it turns off normally, at least I never let it go sleep by itself but always use the power button before putting it in my pocket.
[Desire Android Development] Nidzo80:
Wow this rom is fantastic. I flashed it last night but... I have lags :( For example when I run some application like Facebook , status bar become unresponsive for second or two, also when I open and exit some applications it lags.

I formatted sd card with Gparted (FAT32, ext4), flashing rom and Data2SD Installer went smooth. I have 4Ext Recovery.

I suspect on sd card that is causing this but it worked fine on Froyo stock , Redux2 (with A2SD and Dalvik2ext).and previously on Nokia 5800:)

It is 8gb SD HC card class 4 unbranded.

Is there some tweaks that I missed or I should start searching for new SD card with class 6 because I really like this rom?
[Desire Android Development] sibere:
Maybe you should have created partitions with 4EXT recovery. It is aligning partitions properly.
[Desire Android Development] Nidzo80:
Can it be somehow corrected now without data loss?
[Desire Android Development] sibere:
Ho yes I remember when I realised that is was a big issue on deodexed ROMs!

Variations like dalvik2ext or whatever it can be will at some stage suffer from the lack of space if they use the nand for the rest of datas.

On my phone, /data/data (316Mo) or /data/app (471Mo) are even bigger than the /data partition on the NAND (150Mo)!

That's why if one want a real unlimited space to install hundreds of app, there is no choice but DATA2SD ;)

The only things that can be left on NAND are settings (they *have* to be on NAND actually, it was an old bug) and maybe a few files like the system dex files.

I have a kind of intermediate way to do it on my (almost gone) desire.

I transferred all system app and system framework dex files to the nand /data; and linked them back to the ext4 dalvik-cache. In order to do so, files must have system@app or system@framework prefix.

Deleting the framework dex would end-up in a boot loop but the system@app can still be rebuild or updated by the DK VM if an app is modified in the ROM. In normal conditions though, those files will never be modified because they are related to the ROM (/system).

I now have about 64Mo of system dex files on the /data nand and 112Mo of app dex files on the ext4 partition.

Interesting thought is that their should be even enough space in the /system partition to move the system@framework files (note the system@app) to make sure that even in the case of a dalvik wipe, the basic needed files would still be there. But hey! that would become an odexed-deodexed ROM right? :D

Obviously I will NEVER wipe my /data (nand) under recovery!

My little modification is spreading the read access between sd ext and nand when the system needs to get access to system dex files.

Did you align the partitions with the "align to MB" with gparted? if yes, then there is nothing more to do there.

If no, you need to do a nandroid backup.

Save all your files on your fat32 partition on a computer, then make the partitions with the 4ext recov, then re-transfer everything back to the FAT32 and restore the nandroid backup.
[Desire Android Development] Nidzo80:
I did use Align to: MiB

Just now I inserted SD to card reader and run Gparted and it shows

Unallocated 10 mb space. Bellow that is FAT32 and evt4 partition.

Could that unallocated space might causing problems?

Thanks for everything, Sibere!

Sibere!!! I have to say thanks before you go, man!! Your nice piece of code has simplified our user experience a lot! It was really a shame that a device so nice and well built as the Desire was spoiled by a dull memory problem, and your workaround definitely solved the issue :)

I'm happy for your new purchase, but I think that smartphones first of all still need to fit in our pockets!! :D (that basically means that I find even 4,5" devices too big for my tastes)

I hope you'll be lurking around in this forum anyway ;-)

Thanks for everything, I am impressed that you also refused to receive any kind of donation... So noble of you! All the best and... see you around! :-)

Is there an easy way to have trackpad to wake AND trackpad to unlock?
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Read the last three pages
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
I too am pro huge screens. Find them easier to type, rather than be content with swype
[Desire Android Development] craftycarper1:
Ok, i have read the last 3 pages again, is this a reading test?

Is there a Trackpad to wake AND trackpad to unlock mod available for this rom, i flashed the earlier link you gave me, and all i ended up with was trackpad to unlock, before flashing i had trackpad to wake. Are they available together as they are in a few other roms?.....will any other rom mod work?
[Desire Android Development] dravenSt0rM:
Great ROM, well done, just it seems that my touch is slower. And sometimes it freezes for 3-4 seconds.
[Desire Android Development] sibere:
Good point, but I've seen videos of people putting their note in their jean's pokets.

Anyway, I never put my phone in my pockets and uses a horizontal Leather Case with belt pouch pocket like this one I bought on amazon.de

I will definitely lurk around to upgrade the phone in the future until my GF gets rid of it :)

I just did this to share, not for fame or fortune :)

Thanks for your nice post.
[Desire Android Development] sibere:
you can have a idea of the beast size.

got to phone-size.com, adjust your screen size at the top, select the desire, check that the size on the screen is the real size of the desire , and then select any other phone (the Note is available of course ;) )

[Desire Android Development] DroidBois:
I've upgraded to the latest Supernova, but since the day before I upgraded I started getting the dreaded process.google.process.gapps repeated force close problem, anyone got any idea? When I got this on my Xoom it was caused by trying to sync bookmarks (or passwords?) from my Google Apps domain, so removing and re-adding the account fixed it (and leaving bookmark sync off in the browser).

Here I can not even remove any Google accounts and Market just stalls on the white splash screen. I can not find anything obvious in the system logs.

I don't think it's a problem with Supernova but I thought I would ask here in case anyone has any ideas.

Also two more issues (possibly also not related to Supernova)

1) Titanium saying it can't get root permissions, but ClockSync seems to have root permissions ok so possibly a problem with Busybox.

2) When I tried to install the CarbonAra theme the ROM wouldn't boot and I had to restore from backup. No biggie, but just curious.

Hoping to avoid a full factory reset as I've generally had to do that in the past when doing anything to my ROM which I'd rather avoid this time if at all possible.

-- Edit --

Fixed the gapps force close problem by clearing data on everything remotely Google I could find, and reboot.

But now Voice Dialling is not working. I installed via flashable Zip and it just crashes each time I try to activate it via Bluetooth headset. I've tried clearing its data too. Is it working for anyone? It's an awesome feature to have, if I can get it again I'd use it constantly.
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Try re installing the ROM
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Thank you
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
I remember that even with Starburst, you used to try out various themes. The easy upgrade process had between tested only with stock Starburst ROM and should work fine with any third party apps. If you've modified the framework significantly, there's a high chance that things might go wrong.

Supernova is the only ROM with a script powerful enough to upgrade froyo to gingerbread. But there's a limit to the magic I can weave around it. ;) Themes are powerful black magic!

Another issue that I can think of which might cause issues like yours, is upgradation of superuser. I can't provide help with that, refer to chainsdd's documentation
[Desire Android Development] UltimateGoblin:
Droidzone, is it ok if we do our backups with .tar files in 4ext recovery? It should be ok as we're not running the a2sdx script. Just asking for confirmation ;) would you recommend to do it?
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
I think tar backups are not done for all partitions in case of Desire recoveries. If they are, why not?

Anyone with a copy of the Sense 3.5 lockscreen?
[Desire Android Development] lordvoldemort:

Do you want some specific file from the zip file? do let me know
[Desire Android Development] tempazz:
Hello,

I'm totally new in Desire flashing. SUPERNOVA Xtreme is the first custom rom for my Desire. I have installed exactly by instruction : http://supernova.droidzone.in/?cat=6. I have made 2GB ext4 partition on sd card and my Desire is S-OFF with "Revolutionary". After flashing and first reboot , I have restored some user apss with titanium backup.

Now i have some lag's when truning on phone after sleep, some lag's in UI.

Why when phone screen is ON, CPU is allways on 998MHz. I have installed "SPY CPU", it shows than phone is using only two CPU states "998MHz" and "Deep sleep". How to change it ?

How to disable CRT TV-Off Animation?

Maybe I missed something important when installed ?

And last question, is it possible to install lock screen from new Sense to this ROM ?

Sorry for dumb questions :)

Thank You, Droidzone, for hard work !!!
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Thanks. I'll need these files:

framework-res.apk

com.htc.resources.apk

SystemUI.apk

Rosie.apk

HtcLockscreen.apk

Please package these into a zip file and upload to dropbox/box.net/upload here.

I'll be analyzing the files when I get free time..Thanks.
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
This is a good solution. I think it isnt even necessary to keep all system dexes on Nand either, only those frequently used like Rosie, SystemUI, frameworks. The rest of the space (after reserving some for the system data files) can be allocated for important third pary apps' dexes like GoSms, third party launchers etc.. When I get time I might try building a menu based script to allow user to choose what to move and what not.
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
For the last and final time, folks..I WILL NOT provide replies to any PMs/emails asking me anything about the Rom.

[Desire Android Development] yeppi1:
Thank you very much.

I have this rom now for a week - but only because of lack of time to change it. I read so positive feedback about this rom... But for me it is really bad. It takes ages to start an app. If I send a sms with 300 characters (2sms), it takes 14 seconds to send. 14! If i open whatsapp, it takes 1 minute!

Sometimes it really goes fast and a game will open immediately. No idea why and when.

My question is, is that depending on my Sd card? I have 8gb class4 and thought it's good enough, but really lagging (also pushing gmail e-mails... i have them very late (with the original fw i really had them within 5 seconds), now i see them after ~30 minutes.

Is it the SD card? Because then i might forget about data2sd and go back. Or could there be another reason?

Thanks.
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Had a look at the Runnymede lockscreen. Unfortunately there's so much differences in the smali structure that it will take a lot of work to merge them. Dont really have that amount of time now.
[Desire Android Development] Nidzo80:
I had same issues. I ordered new 8gb class 6 sd card and will give this rom another chance.
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
It's a bad idea, ordering a sdcard for a Rom. Performance varies widely between even same classes of different brands. So far, the only consistent performer has been the Transcend Class 6.

I need micro sd card anyway for another device. I ordered class 6 just to see will there be a difference. ;)

Hello everybody, i like this rom and want to thank Droidzone and Sibere. But as mentioned in here, it does not work very good for me. I don't know, if a different rom will be better, but i want to try it. I need to try it, because most of my apps don't work anymore. It's since today, i can not open the camera for example, and the "album" feature says, that there are no images. But i can acces my sd via es file explorer. Strange.

So a new one. My question is, do I need to consider anything special before I install a new one? Formatting the Data2SD part?
