Its an option too... Im using htc from 7 years, and just cant abondon them. And at this point dhd is a masterpiece(the body of dhd is milled down from a solid block of aluminium, i noticed that when i disassembled myne for cleaning)
[Desire HD Android Development] overjoy71:
Agree. Loving DHD too much to change at this point. As makbil pointed out, the differences between DHD and sensation don't justify me changing. It is a pity that a lot of the devs are moving on to newer models. I guess that part of life.
[Desire HD Android Development] ThE_DeamoN:
Ya me too... Im thinking about EVO 3D because of 3D, no other thing in it can impress me
[Desire HD Android Development] Yoshi_523:
Can someone please run AnTuTu Benchmark on their LeeDroid Desire HD and post what their 2D and 3D graphics scores are??

I'm running an old version of LeeDroid (based on 2.2.1 Froyo) and I want to compare to see if there is much improvement on the latest LeeDroid ROMS. Thank you.

Here are my scores on a standard (non overclocked LeeDroid ROM v2.0.0)

2D Graphics - 398

3D Graphics - 741
[Desire HD Android Development] hamdir:
exactly why you shouldn't blindly follow one dev.

the DHD is far from outdated, snapdragon2 has exceeded my expectations in terms of speed, games are still being optimised for it thanks to xperia play, the amount of RAM and megapixels are still high end, and an amazing construction my DHD has fell more times then I can count and still looks almost out of box, not a single scratch on screen

I need an HTC device with HD display like rezound and unibody build to convince me of moving on, and if so I'm keeping the DHD with my wife

@yoshi still on froyo? wow!
[Desire HD Android Development] unhallowedone:
So true! Ok, I do use a screen protection and I have a silicon case around it, but you just hear and feel this construction when accidentally falling down. It's the sound of a solid block ^^

With a little R2D2 inside it becomes the android :p
[Desire HD Android Development] krzych:
Definitely tuned. And feature loaded. I don't need themes at all. Phone should be functional, not fancy (so, functional means look also, but HTC did it quite well, no need to fix - only thing that Rosie lacks is folder sortng by finger).

@hamir - RCMix3D is discontinued? A pity, another featurefull ROM... I hope Lee won't do it too.

Where can I find it? Google sees E3RBUS XL nowhere. Is this an ARHD patch or something?

...and it's waterproof :D Last months I was at a friends place, I had my DHD in water for about a minute (fully immersed in dog's water bowl). I just took out the battery, SIM card and SD card, left it vertically some distance from the fireplace and next day it just worked. Unbelievable !
[Desire HD Android Development] krzych:
@tmh & @hamdir, thank you guys :)

Liar! ;P (joking :D). Nice. I hope I will not have any opportunity to confirm your story :)
[Desire HD Android Development] Yoshi_523:
I've been using a nice personally cleaned and customised version of LeeDroid 2.0.0 (based on 2.2.1 Froyo) for most of 2011. Ok so after reading this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1376462 where Samsung users with the exact same graphics chip as the DHD were getting an increase from 700's to 1100's in the 3D scrore (tested with AnTuTu Benchmark) I decided to find out if it was time I bite the bullet and upgrade to the latest ROM.

Here are the results:

AnTuTu Benchmark

LeeDroidHD v2.0.0 + Kernel V2.0.6

2D Graphics - 398

3D Graphics - 741

LeeDroid HD v4.0.0 + Kernel V4.0.0

2D Graphics - 292

3D Graphics - 708

I did a full wipe & factory reset before loading the latest LeeDroid ROM and still as you can see I'm getting better graphics benchmark results using the old version of LeeDroid! I also tried using the Samsung drivers from the thread above on both LeeDroid ROMS listed but this only resulted in a broken ROM with non working graphics. Well that settles it then... At this point I don't see the need to bother messing around loosing my skins (or trying to fiddle with them to get them to work) and other various nice apps that aren't supported on Gingerbread 2.3.x. I'll stick with the old version that I've got all customised and nice... at least until there's a big improvement in GPU scores or something else really worthwhile.

I'm really glad Lee has been making solid ROMs & Custom Kernals for a good amount of time coz it's mean't I've been able to do well with an older ROM. It's really helped me to not need to be involved in the constant wipe & ROM flash craze that to be honest gets quite painful by the time everything is getting reloaded and put back just how you had it.
[Desire HD Android Development] gaeilgeganeagla:
you should keep in mind in many ways lee's newest stuff is still beta.

you should try his v3 rom as for many old leedroid users it was by far the most stablest and smoothest roms around with the super rosie patch added in

i myself have been with lee over a year now and until 2-3 weeks ago i switched to beatmod's ics

i love his roms and really liked v4 but still v3 was the best a pure masterpiece :)
[Desire HD Android Development] sigurd_LU:
I'm on RCMix Runny 4 and my Antutu scores are about the same as his with Leedroid 4.. max frequency 998 MHz, ondemand. But I don't care too much about benchmark scores, GB is sureley better than Froyo in many ways.
[Desire HD Android Development] overjoy71:
I believe the new download has the new kernel, which has the USB support. So the answer is yes if you are downloading the new ROM. If you have downloaded Lee's V4.0 beta, then just flash the kernel and you should be good. :D

Hahahhaaahahaa.... I thought you deliberately dropped it into the water. Well it is good to know the next time my wife drops my phone into the toilet again..... :D

So just download latest rom, flash

and enjoy usb host? Sounds too good to be true

Gingerbread doesn't support usb host mode, afaik. Maybe it'll come with ICS, I don't know.

For some odd reason, the Inspire patch breaks my audio. Any solutions? On another odd note, the thumbnails for backgrounds are not showing up in the HTC Wallpapers app.
[Desire HD Android Development] overjoy71:
Did you flash the patch from OP?

The patch from OP is from a different base, so I am not surprise it broke the audio. I am not sure if there is a inspire patch for LeeDroid V4.0.
[Desire HD Android Development] Joshp406:
Ohhhhh, well there's my problem.

Ok, that's very sad, but true. I didn't like the idea which born in my mind, but could not resist it. I've checked why we are abandoned for so long, at least two times with comment that Lee is off because of stress...

Hmm, searching the forums by the nickname shows great stress...

Lee, I know that there are some places on the Earth that people are richer and can buy a new featurefull phone every year. And it's GOOD. Really good.

But... to abandon us with lame doctor [edit]explanation^H^H^H[...]^Hexcuse[/edit] and simultaneously posting like crazy almost every day for few hours in two ROM's threads for newer phones? Thats simply...

I believed in your good will until now. Sorry. Many people warned us before, but I did not wanted to belive them. I stil don't want... but there's no spoon...
[Desire HD Android Development] adkz:
Some how this is like waiting for Diablo 3 to come out... everyone knows how good it is going to be and if possible we pre order it before the game even finish. But only thing they ever do is saying next year it be out. It is 2012 already, they said the same thing for the past 4 years? but I am still waiting hahaha

Plus the only reason for me to update now is like maybe better features? The current latest rom and kernel seems to be working too fine for me to change lol
[Desire HD Android Development] Sharro:
I'm still on 3.3.3, trying to be as patient as possible but it's getting annoying to come here almost everyday looking for all the improvements promised after V4, new base, etc.

We will certainly see something from Lee but it's taking tooooooo loooooooooooonnnngggg.
[Desire HD Android Development] LeeDroid:
I certainly will not lol :eek: 2 weeks since I dropped the kernel, have been working on and off on the next build, I don't like to say it as I have several times.. but it will come.. and soon

Lame explanations and excuses? You should see the state of me lol aged 2 years in the past few months.. Guys.. I put a ton of time into the DesireHD, I have been needed on current devices due to certain functions that would not work or needed fixing.. Flyer HW keys on HC is 1 example.. I agree with you all being frustrated, I am as equally frustrated.. really want to get this cracked off ASAP, not trying to keep you hanging if you want to try something else feel free, I will post the next build then the choice is yours.. thanks to those who have stayed positive & held out its massively appreciated and I will return

[Desire HD Android Development] hamdir:
mate i feel with you, but if you don't mind me asking, why do you do this to yourself? with so many devices to take care of, you are seriously over stretching yourself mate and if i'm correct your are on your own, i mean you don't have a team?

things are moving forward with the Desire HD, also the sensation XL software works perfectly with our device and you haven't been keeping up with all these details to be perfectly blunt

if i were you i would pull the plug on Desire and Desire HD and free myself for all the other stuff, aging 2 years in few months i know exactly how this feels, it happened to me when i traveled to work abroad for one year in jordan, away from friends family and my girl, seriously my face started to deform! :D

Capy discontinued RC runny when he moved to Sensation, its the natural order of things

please guys don't slaughter me for this comment, i seriously feel with Lee, offering a genuine advice and this comment is directed to Lee
[Desire HD Android Development] krzych:
Hmm, ok, sorry for disbelief ant this 'lame excuse'. But it looks really like this. You even stopped talking here, and thats why Ive checked your activity - If you were here, I would not do it. One thing is a hope, but another is a false hope. I don't want to wait if there would be nothing to wait for, but since you are here now saying that you are wotring, I believe you.

About hamdir's post - yes, it is not good to age too quick and I feel for you too Lee if that's true. So if I were you, I really would slow down like hamdir said, but would not stop development for HD if you really like this phone - if you don't like it, because it is already too old, I would stop.

The main problem which I see is not the time we wait, it's your absence mainly - noone knows what to do next, and the discussion if "Lee will continue with DHD", or "Lee will discontinue but he has no courage to say it" is almost few month long now, so don't be surprised we are crushing off one by one...

It's much better to wait for your time and get the real LeeDroid release than not seeing you here at all and have few betas around. Believe me (and I know the difference, just look at your build.prop from beta - it is smooth, but nobody knows it couldn't be even smoother, and that's the most important feature of your ROMs).

Ok - now what I will do - since I do not want to rush you (but still I want to see you here time to time), I will continue my try with Er3BuS, but I will still wait for the real deal from you.

And again, I'm sorry for my post. I'm not so long with you, so I do not know you personally nor even long (a pity) and didn't knew what to think of.

PS. "seeing you here" means for me that you are relaxed and have more time - that's why I said it.
[Desire HD Android Development] ALIEN_:
Link In my signature....

If and when Leedroid continues for DHD I will definitely be coming back to check it out.
[Desire HD Android Development] krill78:
I must say I am starting to weigh up the XL ports, or even ARHD ROM in the meantime, because whilst I *totally* understand the need to update the "current" devices, as mentioned by Lee a few posts back. Unfortunately, however, those of us stuck with this now outdated phone should be allowed to voice our intentions to try other ROMS, as Lee himself suggested a page or two back.

Believe me - the only reason I'm hesitant in flashing er3bus (apologies spelling), is problems with full wipe etc. Maybe someone can put me at ease about it. Maybe not. By the same token, maybe Lee will be back on deck with proper version before this gets a reply.

Lee, you're a legend. My donations to your cause, albeit nominal, are an indication of my appreciation of your work to date. If I must move to another device in order to appreciate your genius - so be it. But please, don't keep me guessing. Like you, there is enough going on.

Continued success, joy, health and happiness to you, Lee, and many thanks for your help to date.

Extremely sorry for epic post. Clearly needed to be offloaded.
[Desire HD Android Development] unhallowedone:
That's why so much people honor this and now give you their time.

Does life end if you end your support on the DHD? No.

Is it better when you continue? Definately!

Is there any logical reason not to wait for it? No.

Me and a lot of others here are waiting patiently - and if you call us we shall surround again, the fellowship of the Lee goes on :D
[Desire HD Android Development] makbil:
As most users here, I would love to see a new build by LeeDroid. However, things have moved on and so have I. After being on ARHD with its newer base and excellent build for some time, I have recently switched to Er3bus to try Sense 3.5 (thanks to hamdir for the heads up). I must say that I was extremely pleased with it. Sense 3.5 is definitely more refined and doesn't have any of the bugs of Sense 3. Haven't encountered any problems worth mentioning yet.

What I'm getting at - and I have posted this before - is that a new ROM on an older base is not going to please people at this point. The current level of development for DHD should include a Sense 3.5 based ROM. So unless Lee makes such a ROM (or an ICS ROM :p ), I can't see how previous users can come back. If I was in Lee's place, what I would do is correct all known bugs in the latest ROM, fine tune it and publish it as the last ROM for DHD. That way we will all have a reference ROM to fall back on if we need to and Lee can continue his exceptional work on the new devices.
[Desire HD Android Development] krzych:
I see no argument against creating new LeeDroid on the new base with Sense 3.5. Especially while Er3BuS is working smoothly, so we have all real issues solved by his author and we can join the forces - and this is how I imagined ROM development all the time - that's why I even offered help to Lee before I noticed he works alone.

By the way, Lee's progress on DHD is in my opinion the most important thing now wjen RCMix3D is discontinued and ARHD is only competitor (while Er3BuS is not counting yet by me because it's very fresh one, so we do not even know that it is a one(few)-time(s) work, or not).

The more DHD gets old, the more important is the work and community. With the community death, dies the works, with the work death, dies the community.
[Desire HD Android Development] makbil:
Correct but it's a fact of life that I've been through many times with my previous devices. As the device gets older, work on it slows down and eventually stops. We all need to accept this and thank everyone involved for the effort they have put in so far to make that device more enjoyable for us to use.
[Desire HD Android Development] LeeDroid:
Honestly guys.. thank you.. got me rather motivated toward the DHD & I do not want to see it die.. its still a hell of a device! And hardware wise not much different from the flyer which I am actively developing on! I need to decide which direction I am going to take my DHD builds in, this sense 3.0 build will go final soon

Sent from my LeeDrOiD loaded s-off HTC EVO 3D
[Desire HD Android Development] hamdir:
yes but our device is not nearly dead, same specs as a the newly released sensation XL, our device can go on for another year thanks to XL, HTC has to comitt to the XL for at least 1 and a half year

and we still have no information if HTC will cut ICS or not, just like classic desire went from eclair to froyo and received GB as final firmware, the DHD should receive official ICS as final

we still didn't cross the red line where the device is old and outdated, our specs are still highend

to be honest in the whole fiasco i blame HTC, they should be better then apple in this, if the devices specs are still in use like the snapdragon 2 and amount of RAM, then they shouldn't give us sense 3.0 while they give the XL sense 3.5 this kind of marketing arm bending sucks! not to mention the DHD is their best selling android device yet still being manufactured and sold new

Fully understand if the next build will be the final one.my 18 month contract is up in April and I can get a upgrade in march. By then the DHD will be 18 months old and while I agree it certainly is not that far behind the like of the sensation etc.Come April may time I expect things like the HTC edge or vile will be out and lots of DHD modders will have moved on.Lee Any plans to get the edge when its out thats what I'm looking at for my next phone.

Wow. I never thought I will feel so good hearing such things about mods :D

Thank you :) (I've used up my thanks count today lol)

As I won't rather change my device in three years I think (as my contract gives me, but also my girlfriend all the phones, so I have to wait twice), I will have a time to express my gratitude for sure :). And I agree DHD isn't old at all - it is only "old" as for a phone, but still a "razor" as a Smartphone for me, especially with flawless mods as your tend to be. The only thing I could change is the screen to bigger one or I'll buy glasses at last, coz I need them ;).

It's a device that attempts to merge a phone and a tablet, an all-in-one device. Time will tell if it holds or not. I remember way back (really way back), Microsoft had originally planned MS-DOS to use an optical pen as a pointing device but the winner turned out to be the mouse :cool:

So, we'll see which form factor wins this battle.
[Desire HD Android Development] KamikaZeeFu:
Well, IMO, sense 3.0 should be kept out of this rom. What I like about lees roms is that there's next to no fancy bull****, nothing put in just for the sake of having it in.

From what I could see, most sense 3 ported apps need bits of the 3.0 framework ported as well, which I don't like at all.

sense 3.0 stuff should be kept in full sense 3.0 ports.
[Desire HD Android Development] KamikaZeeFu:
copy systemui out of system/app and check if the images are inside there as well, just to see if cwm actually properly puts the file there.

in theory, the new statusbar and footer images should not be inside the file in your system.

if that's the case you could try manually pasting the correct systemui.apk into system/app , though doing things manually tends to lead to boot loops sometimes, so be careful.

Another suggestion would be to download my no recent app zip, and place your systemui inside instead of mine. maybe the uot kitchen just created a faulty update script or smth
[Desire HD Android Development] joostnl:
I have less reception then on the old Froyo rom..

Sometimes it's less then 1 stripe with few meters from router
[Desire HD Android Development] andreasy:
maybe clearing your browser cache will help? I am thinking to try that also but I'll wait for my next attempt to finish and see if it is ok again.

oh it just finished fine.

Another guess I make is that you should upload your files at the very last step because maybe they have a temp TTL on the server and by the time the largest file is uploaded, the others are wiped (I hope that's not true though).
[Desire HD Android Development] SupremeBeaver:
The file that i attached above i got directly from system/app. So it would be pointless pasting it back. The second option may work if indeed the update script is at fault. Could you provide the zip?

@andreasy, i've already wiped cache but no go.

I really feel like i've spammed this thread a little lol.
[Desire HD Android Development] KamikaZeeFu:
The problem is, the files are properly generated by the kitchen. The new images are inside the systemui.apk, just that they're not applied for some reason.

By now I'd blame the cwm or the zip the kitchen created. resubmitting won't help much
