Hey guys, I was thinking to make this thread some time ago and now I found time for it. I made a new thread with the most frequent issues that we are all fed up answering in every 10 posts so we can redirect people there. I have it in my signature and here it is as well:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=16764060#post16764060

I will not flood it with a ton of information because then it will be useless. Just the most common tasks, problems, etc. that we deal with on a daily basis.

Any sugestions are welcome but let's try to keep only information that are global (not country specific) and which are met very often.

Damn, I can't seem to mount R/W the /etc folder. Maybe adfree can't too and that's why it can't modify the hosts file. :confused:
[Desire HD Android Development] andreasy:
No, that's not the problem. You need root explorer to mount as r/w. It's a paid app but very essiential. AdFree can mount as r/w as long as your superuser has authorized it and you said that it's there.

contact problems

the problems with contact pictures are already known, i guess.

I found a new one.

If you like to import a .vcf, the new contact will be not shown. If you search for the name, it finds it, but it is not in the list.

Also this contact will not get synced to exchange.
[Desire HD Android Development] Lonski:
Was just an observation. I don't know what else was tweaked in the patch. But since I installed it my battery life has been great.
[Desire HD Android Development] Nadeo4441:
Im using root explorer. I click mount r/w and it does not work.
[Desire HD Android Development] nodiaque:
no Lee included weather 3 sound, that's all. I had same problem with other ROM. It might be the sense 3 package that have the problem.

I found a weather folder into share/ media with weather sound. I tried deleting them but the live wallpaper continue playing sound. I'm currently trying to see which jar contain these file from sense add on.

Thanks

It's me or exchange work so so if you use htc apps? I have hotmail on exchange and every time I sync, it download all email and tell me they are all new even if I have deleted them or already read.

[Desire HD Android Development] lawrence750:
i had that ages ago, just try set r/w on the parent folders, i think thats what i did, failing that use adb to pull - edit - push (actually i'm pretty sure thats what i did when i had this problem)
[Desire HD Android Development] andreasy:
I tend to believe that your superuser is broken. There is an app in market called check root or something like that. Try to verify your root access. Having done that, I would also try to uninstall and reinstall superuser.

After all this, maybe it would be worth trying to fix permissions from rom manager. If all those fail, there must be something wrong with your system and it would be better to wipe and reflash (in my opinion).
[Desire HD Android Development] katman4:
I've had this for a while but not sure why:

On the sense 3 lockscreen the default setup seems to be phone, email and two empty boxes.

I customized this with Doggcatcher and Whatsapp but now everytime i restart it loses the data, meaning it's two empty boxes again.

I've cleared cache and data for the lockscreen but it didn't help.

Is there a different process i should be clearing ?
[Desire HD Android Development] overjoy71:
It's in the op. I think it's called flyin animations with battery mod or something like that.

[Desire HD Android Development] mnp:
Not in the op. That adds them. I made a patch to remove them here:

[Desire HD Android Development] alienex:
Thankyou Leedroid for this amazing rom!

I'd like to share my experience with this ROM and the way I have tweaked it..

I am having good battery life with this ROM compared to ARHD ROM. I was using ARHD for ages and was very happy with it but always wondered what Leedroid ROM was like so I tried it!

I have SPB 3D installed as my frontend and used to use Juice Defender until I found a program called Green Power Battery Saver - http://www.appbrain.com/app/green-power-battery-saver/org.gpo.greenpower2

This controls my WIFI, bluetooth and mobile data.

I have set the voltage levels at 100mv less than default using the OC/UV beater and so far running this for 3 days have not had any issues.

I have turned off "Enable always-on mobile data" in mobile network settings, this has made a slight difference to battery life after checking my logs in Battery Monitor Widget Pro. Bluetooth with me adds about 20mv extra usage so I tend to use it only when needed, same as GPS and mobile data, they are all power hungry!

I have set syncs at a longer interval also which helps.

My Battery Left PRO widget is showing a battery life of 26 hrs and 12 minutes on normal usage, this decrease to about half if I start using wifi.

Anyway, I hope this helps someone tweaking their phones as I have read loads of info on XDA but at the end of the day you need to tweak your phone to what you use it for and turn off all the unecessary bits, unless of course you don't mind charging your phone all the time.

With Leedroid, I am now confident I can use my phone for at least 2 days, possibly 3 without having to charge again!

using v 3.3.3 with standard kernel supplied and radio is 12.54.60.25u_26.09.04.11_M2

You've gone quiet on us again dude :p

Just curious as to your thought's about 3.3.3 and if you've anything in the pipeline. I know you're very busy with work and your new baby Sensation but would be cool to get a heads up ;)

Mucho gracious amigo
[Desire HD Android Development] Sharro:
:confused: Does anxiety help ? Guess not...

If we had these expectations on official ROM's we would die of it...
[Desire HD Android Development] Hunt3r.j2:
Do you have any sort of battery figures for your phone? For me right now on LeeDroid 3.3.3 w/ 3.2.1 BFS kernel, with the DHD-Inspire patch, at 58% I am seeing 1 day and 14 hours of usage, with 26 minutes of screen on time. About 3.6% of the time since full charge the phone has been awake, and about 1% of the time the screen has been on, so around 2.6% of the time the phone is holding partial wakelock. This is with a live wallpaper and all the other random stuff.

I consider this to be excellent, or at least, as good as battery life is going to get with these phones.

In theory I could turn off always-on mobile data, but that will make it impossible to receive instant messages or push email, as data would only be turned on when there is scheduled sync, and I set scheduled sync to be every 4 hours or more.
[Desire HD Android Development] Desi130312:
Ever since I've been running on this rom, my mobile network takes a lot longer to turn on then it used to. I'm using the recommended radio and I have no idea why it's doing that.

[Desire HD Android Development] overjoy71:
What do you mean the mobile network takes longer to turn on? There shouldn't be too much of a different between this and previous rom in this area.
[Desire HD Android Development] Desi130312:
Its been doing this on the previous builds also. Everytime I time I turn it on it takes probably 2 minutes and it didnt take that long before:confused:

DHD-Inspire patch

Mate could you possibly help me understand what this DHD-Inspire patch does to DHD and if its recommended or not? also you just flash it with CWM?
[Desire HD Android Development] slopppy:
You only need to flash this patch if you don't have a Desire HD, but you actually have an Inspire 4G.

The hardware is identical except for something to do with the audio, so this patch installs the correct audio drivers (or something like that).

Point is, it's only for people with Inspire 4G's.
[Desire HD Android Development] slopppy:
Hey mate, I see from your signature that you have an Inspire 4G, did you install the Inspire patch after you flashed the ROM? Sounds like the issue you have will be fixed with that.

Cheers,
[Desire HD Android Development] hamurabi1:

I have Lookout installed. I can locate my phone if my data is on and it automatically switch on GPS... This is the only time I notice my GPS icon trying to connect by itself. But NO vibration...
[Desire HD Android Development] cgorki:
There's only a default lockscreen sound, which you can enable in the sound settings.

I guess you should be able to replace it with a custom one of your liking....

But don't ask me where it's stored or what format it has...
[Desire HD Android Development] mnbrennan:
The lock sounds are in .ogg format, they can be changed by pushing via ADB. Can't remember how though. There was a video on Youtube

Edit: They are contained in /system/media/audio/ui

Edit2: Called lock.ogg and unlock.ogg
[Desire HD Android Development] Hunt3r.j2:
Wow, with mobile data always on turned off, I currently have 3 solid hours of idle time in exchange for 2 percent battery. This is with my phone overclocked to 1.344 GHz. In theory this means pure idle should make the phone last a good 6 days. In practice I'd like to hope this means I can easily make it through the day without having to plug in.
[Desire HD Android Development] taarhaug:
When I use the HTC car cable, the set ring tone sounds when inserting/removing the cable. Sound duration varies, but long enough to annoy me. Could this be removed? Never heard it before 3.3.3.

Is it a bad move to restore apps and system data using titanium backup? Going from 3.3.1 to 3.3.3

I don't think I understand your question but I try to guess what you mean. Are you talking about the errors you get for battery if you plug in while switched off? if yes, then update 4ext to latest release. It was fixed yesterday.

Sense 3.0

Hi guys, I am running the 3.3.3 ROM and just installed the V4 No Rosie - HTC Sense 3.0 All in 1 Lockscreen, Weather, SMS, HTC Trace, fixes & NEW LeeDrOiD mods - Updated 06/07 (FTP).

The problem is my DHD software info shows 2.1 Sense version still. Does anyone have an idea what did I do wrong or this is how it supposed to be? Cheers
[Desire HD Android Development] tmh:
It's supposed to be like that. While you have indeed installed some Sense 3.0 components, the backbone of the ROM is still Sense 2.1 :)
[Desire HD Android Development] ph3nom:
How do you install the all in 1 add on? just flash them through Clockwork recovery?

what's the diff between V4 and V5?

sense 3.0 faster then sense 2.1?
[Desire HD Android Development] andreasy:
Flash normally in CWM or 4ext

V4 is without rosie, 5 is with rosie. You'll have to clean sense data for 5 to work.

No, 3 is not faster. It's a matter of appearance, not performance.
[Desire HD Android Development] Dixi1801:
Sorry for the noob question, but is rosie the 3d page scroll effect?
[Desire HD Android Development] andreasy:
yes, + some interface enhancements. It's not necessarily preferred over the old rosie though. I don't like it and still use the old rosie.
[Desire HD Android Development] remuspider:
Yep, just flash through CWM. It looks nicer than Sense 2.1, but not faster. Give it a go and see if you like it.

could it be radio?

i looked for the alternative gps.conf but no luck too

any ideas?

Thanks
[Desire HD Android Development] shezaad879:
That's odd. I get really quick fix. Matter of seconds really. Indoors it can take up to a min.

Try using GPS Status and clear your A-gps data. Then re download it still through gps status.

Also, if you don't mind me asking, which country are you in? If not in UK, try using faster fix to set your server to one more local to you. I myself was in France recently and found that gps signal is appalling there. Took a while to get a fix.

Hope it helps :)
