Going SuperNova

Hi there!

I went from HTC stock ROM to SuperNova 2.1.0.0 because I thought it would prolong the use of my Desire since I had a lot of trouble with the storage (who would have thought, right?). It was really nice to see the 1.9 GB free space when installed. However, after a while it started rebooting randomly and got very slow at times. I then tried the SuperNova 2.0.2.0 after reading about the problems others had and am now totally free of restarts and lags!

So, thank you for a great ROM!!! I can actually keep my Desire for a long time now and don’t need to throw it out the window when annoying the hell out of me complaining about storage space. :D

I can really recommend it for those of you who want a stable problem free ROM with enough storage – that should have been there from the very beginning!

Great job Droidzone!! :)

Thanks for the feedback!

Ho year it's good to read positive feedback from time to time :)
[Desire Android Development] UltimateGoblin:
I don't know which black ritual you did yesterday, but today when I woke up I was welcomed (when switching from "airplane" mode to general mode) by a general crash of com.android.phone, htc sense and all the rest. Never happened before. It was even difficult for me to switch off the phone without having to pull out the battery.

When I rebooted, phone was basically a clean SuperNova ROM 2.0.2.0 with working data2sd. All my apps had gone, however. Tried to do a Nandroid Backup, but it said "MD5 sum mismatch". Transferred the backup from pc to sd card and tried to restore --> "MD5 sum mismatch". What the hell?!?

Now I'm reinstalling from scratch, helped by TB... it's the SD the cause of it all, isn't it?

Man, I HATE SDs.
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Too bad that you didnt retrieve the logs after the crash (located on /cache, and immune to any crashes)..They would have helped a lot..It would even have tried to fix any data corruption on second boot.
[Desire Android Development] UltimateGoblin:
Owch... OK, I'll keep that in mind for the next time... I'm kind of sure there will be one. I'm planning on getting a Transcend class 6,hoping that this finally settles it.
[Desire Android Development] sheppard66:
Had this problem too. Found the solution here => http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=714114

The you can restore "sd-ext" and all your apps will be back =)
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Hmm..wouldnt really recommend that except as a last resort. MD5 is a snapshot of the file(s) "signature"/integrity. A compromised MD5 means the file has changed from the time it was created, which suggest corruption of the card/file system hosting the Nandroid files. By regenerating the MD5s, you're recreating the signature for the corrupt files. So CWM is on override, and will restore the corrupt files to your partitions, including boot, radio (!!), system, et al. If a bad radio is flashed to the radio "partition", you can imagine the effect, even a brick may result...

So, even if it's a bit long winded, you can try doing an md5sum for each file in the backup directory, excluding boot, and radio; then update the original .md5 file with the values for the partitions other than radio and boot. Then, you can reboot/reflash the rom. At that point, the rom will regenerate the DK, and it's likely that the original error will disappear. In any case, make an urgent correct nandroid backup and Ti backup after this, transfer it to safe locn on PC, then reformat both sdcard partitions...

That's what I'd suggest..It's likely that the procedure outlined in that thread solves the issue, but there is a potential chance of bricking which shouldnt be lightly dismissed.. Of course I may be paranoid.. It's upto you. :D
[Desire Android Development] UltimateGoblin:
I got most of what you said :D But I thought that a Nandroid backup/restore didn't touch the radio partition at all! If I restore the oldest backup I have, will it also overwrite the actual radio?!
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Ah..bugger. You're right, radio isnt included. No issues then. Try it. If there are issues you can always flash it fresh.
[Desire Android Development] UltimateGoblin:
Don't worry, I'm almost done downloading and restoring. The second most annoying part is having to replace everything back into position (TB will take care of restoring app data... I only use it for that).

The first and foremost annoying part of it is knowing that, with this SD I have, I can be 99% sure I'll have to repeat the process once more in the future. But at least I had 2 beautiful, problemless weeks :D
[Desire Android Development] UltimateGoblin:
Ah, one more thing: once the installation of SuperNova is completed and I have installed all the apps I wanted and after having done a good Nandroid backup... Can I tick back the "Fastboot mode" in Settings > Applications? What happens if I do? From what I've seen, the phone kind of goes to sleep and wakes up really fast after powering up!

I've seen that, however, I can't access to recovery by pressing volume down + power button ;-)
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Yes, you can, once the Data2SD install is over. Never forget to uncheck it at init though, it really messes up the installation..

I have managed to change the option in the upcoming Rom so that users wont have to remember to untick it.. You cant trust people to read installation notes, nowadays.. ;)

Hey,can we have optional lock screens with different unlock pattern as add ons.....i have rejected my calls many a times by mistake,while pulling the phone out from pocket.

thanks
[Desire Android Development] ZaPP187:
I have tried many different things now, but i am still experiencing some terrible lags and reboots from time to time.

This is what i have done until now:

1. Flash Supernova 2.1.0.0, version had a bug. I got 3-5 freezes A DAY! So i replaced the system file libsqlite.so from 2.1.0.0 with the one in your 2.0.2.0., chmod 644 and so on...

2. Still some freezes, tried different kernels of Sibere and it seems i got best results with his latest one, although this is a subjective opinion. ~ 1-2 freezes / reboots a day

I now want to know whether my experience could become better if i flash your latest 2.0.2.0 version or wont there be any changes because i have already replaced libsqlite.so?

Any other possible hints? When i flash your 2.0.2.0 version, will all my installed apps still be there?

I tried many different ROMs before Supernova but YOUR ROM is excactly what i wanted! If the lags and reboots are gone, i think i will stay with your ROM until the End of my time with Desire device ;-D

Thanks in advance!
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
I am going to say this for the last time.

Reboots-With 2.0.2.0 and latest Sibere Stock Kernel ("GB_BattFix_DZ.zip") from http://www.box.net/shared/ttvorittvrt55eqf82i3 there should be NO reboots! If there is, Do a Full Wipe from Recovery, Repartition card properly with Gparted, do an e2fsck, format ext4 properly, reinstall Rom 2.0.2.0 from scratch, and manually install apps (instead of using Titanium-I dont care how hard it is! Sometimes restoring with Ti messes things).

Lags-Card incompatible with Data2sd scripts ->> Hardware issue ->> Not fixable. Find a good Non-Data2sd Rom and stick with it, or buy a branded original Transcend Class 6 8/16 GB and use it.

If the above solutions fail to fix your issue, find an alternate Rom and stick with it.. Issues which mysteriously appear on one device while not on another -> Idiosyncratic response ->> Not fixable

Curiosity: what happens if I pull out the battery when the phone is off in fast reboot mode? I suppose it'll have to reboot from scratch..
[Desire Android Development] emanuel12:
Does this ROM support 2-way call recording?
[Desire Android Development] antonfrompreston:
Yes. But you need to flash one of Sibere's kernels (or snq or bananacakes) that support it.

Droidzone. Consider gingercakes-0.9 for the next version; it seems to be getting very good feedback unlike the 0.8 series of kernels.
[Desire Android Development] sibere:
Not 100% sure but the fast mode is like hibernate on a PC. The phone is really OFF and pulling the battery shouldn't affect the next fast reboot.
[Desire Android Development] UltimateGoblin:
I was thinking of it more in the opposite way, that is, like a suspended mode. In fact, with the fast boot option on, my battery just completely discharged and I had to go through the usual 3-minute-long boot. So, apparently, there needs to be at least a trickle of battery power for the fast boot mode to be effective. But that's the opinion of someone who knows nothing compared to a developer... so I could be totally wrong ;)

A security app and advice

Hello Droidzone,

I've been using for some months now your Sugarburst ROM and I have to say it works very well, congratulations on your good work. Performance is hurted a little but it is a small price for having unlimited app storage space.

Two things:

- I wanted to install a security app (like Cerberus or Phonelocator) as a System App, but it seems it is not possible with your ROM (I tried it using the ROM manager method). Is there any way to install a security app as system so in case of a full data wipe the app would still be there?

- Given the excellent reviews your Supenova ROM is receiving, I was wondering if you recommend me to upgrade from Sugarburst to Supernova.

Again, thanks a lot for your great work, and if the ROM keeps performing as well as it has been a donation is warranted.

Regards
[Desire Android Development] ms|ayrton:
This kernel is noOC?

Can we have the link please? ^^

P.S. : can I install the 5.17.05.23 radio on my Desire? I have turned to S-OFF, and I use Alpharev's Stock HBOOT as you recommended.

Thank you for your time.
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
No OC/UV.

Stable, after 36 hours of testing.

Sibere's kernel should be similar. I just lowered the wifi connection threshold in addition to the Linux version update

Installed supernova today (along with latest radio) and so far so good! I'm glad with it! Good job Droidzone!

I wanted to ask a couple of things though.

First, I had a problem with gps, which didn't want to lock signal, it would see even 9 sats but no lock even after 10th mins. I solved it by taking sim, SD, and battery out for 5 mins and then trying again with the help of gps test program from market. Why did this happen?

Second, what about the lightsensor fix? It isn't smooth and I have also installed the relevant fix, but I see something like...the kernel of supernova is not supported and I have to install another? Which one and where do I find it? It was not in the download list.

Third, and important to me...I don't see HTC torch application in supernova. I think it is very useful and I would like to still have it. I had it in titanium backup, tried to restore it but it wouldn't. I found the apk and downloaded it, I installed it fine but although on screen it is working, the led does not light up (it lights up with the camera). What can be done about it?
[Desire Android Development] leecavturbo:
one touch flashlight is very good app. but maybe still you have issue if htc flashlight doesnt bring on led.

have you rebooted and installed the data script?
[Desire Android Development] Alxnks:
thanx for your reply!

i didnt find one touch flashlight in market, but i installed 3 other ones. one of which is flashlight (zaprox) which is pretty similar to HTC one. but i cant adjust the intensity (although the program has such a feature). on the second one (says nexus torch) when i tick hich intensity, the led does not go on, when the high intensity is off the led lights up. HTC one still does not work.

what do you mean if i have rebooted and installed the data script? which one? from the scripts in the download list, although i have downloaded them all, so far i have installed (after each reboot) the following: Dalvik optimizer, sense 2.1, autobrightness fix (really...what about it? the autobrightness is not as smooth as it used to be, which is the kernel that is supported?). do you mean one of them or something else?
[Desire Android Development] leecavturbo:
its ok you sound like you know what your doing , where is i dont and like many cant get this rom to work although i have flashed many many rom succesfully i cant get this to work apart from the the first initial boot. doing error logs is just hassle. yes prob my mem card incompatible but its just annoying. no dig at dev just frustration on my part.

the led light is a strange one , i have no tips for you sorry
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
The procedure for getting an error log is as follows:

Make it install, wait for any error, pull battery, flash getlogs, upload the error log zip file.

But never mind..I dont have time to give any customized support either.

But if I press Menu button after turn off the screen a long time, it won't wake up.

Maybe something wrong with my Desire. I have Lockbot Pro installed.

[Desire Android Development] Hilton.Swart:
Upfront, sorry for the dumb question...

Im reading two different things here - that there is a different script for data2sd, and then that the script is built into the ROM...

Could someone please clarify this for me as well as the different install procedure??

I have read all posts, but this is slightly confusing.

Thanks on your works Driodzone - Champ!
[Desire Android Development] shankly1985:
Just make sure you install the GB data2sd installer. you install it the same has startburst rom.
[Desire Android Development] Hilton.Swart:
Thanks Shankly...

the link on the SuperNova site for the data2sd installer w/o theme has an error, displays that I need to be logged in to download...?

How is supernova? worth the change over in your opinion?

Look on the right hand side of the page and then register :) I installed the w/o theme and it worked first time. Am really liking this rom its not perfect at the moment, but everything is working ok. It is still beta tho witch I never knew at the time if I would I probaly would of stayed with starburst for the time being.

The performance is much better and the battery life is the best ive seen up to now.

I can play games that wontn't work good with 2.2 asphalt 6 was very laggy, but on 2.3 it works very smooth.

[Desire Android Development] UltimateGoblin:
Same issue here. I have downloaded from various sources the apk file, but no one of them could set the led to work (although the application was successfully installed). Luckily enough, I could restore the application from Titanium Backup and make it work that way. Still, it would be great to have that useful app included in the ROM. That and the simple stock Sense calculator are awesome to me. Just pointing out some "customer feedbacks" for Droidzone... ;-)
[Desire Android Development] Alxnks:
but....i dont get any error during installation. you rom does not have HTC torch, so i tried to install the HTC torch apk. it installs fine, i run the program, the program comes up, i press the buttons and on screen it scales from first bar to the third (when i had it in froyo, the intensity of the led would be according to which bar you had selected)...but the led does not light up. i also said that with other torch applications, the led went on but again the intensity cannot be changed.

so..basically i am not asking for personalised support from you specifically (did i say so anywhere? please let me know if i did!) but i mentioned those problems in case someone else had the same issues. if someone else has similar problems, then it would mean that it is a general bug of the rom and not a personalised of mine.

if however i can help you find what the problem is, please let me know how and i could probably provide you with the logs or whatever it is you may need.
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
What the hell man? Did you see the post just above mine, and to whom I replied to?

Your issue seems to be that you didnt install it as a system app. Push it from recovery

adb push Flashlight.apk /system/app/
chmod 644 /system/app/Flashlight.apk
[Desire Android Development] Alxnks:
i tried with titanium backup too (it was my first attempt), but it didnt work either. titanium tried to restore it but it would stuck to restoring for several minutes without completing the restoration. did it work at once for you?

---------- Post added at 09:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:10 PM ----------

frankly...no, as it changed page and i thought you were replying to me :p

hmm..you will have to be a little more detailed for me regarding pushing from recovery...it was the first time i flashed a rom on android (i ha changed many roms before but on windows mobile phones, not android). so my first attempt was your rom :)

so...how do i ''push from recovery''? do i boot with volume down and power on and go to recovery? and if so, what do i do from there? can i choose an apk file like i did for the zip files of the rom etc? what is the code you showed me? can i just add it somewhere and if yes, how?

cheers!
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
I cant really go into basics in a Development section. Use the Q & A section for that.
[Desire Android Development] UltimateGoblin:
Yes, it did!

And TB shows it as a user application, not as a system application (it is shown in white, not in red). I don't remember when and how exactly I have installed it in the first place.
[Desire Android Development] backfromthestorm:
Restore it in tb, then long press and choose'convert to system app'. (in tb).
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Yep, noticed that. Seems to be because the sdcard isnt properly initialized (cant be written to) at the point..I could make the script sleep for some time before trying (or debug why exactly it isnt RW..possibly sd is mounted RW much later, which is possibly why when it boots up, it says initializing sdcard)..For now, just modify the value within 01data
