When I update from v2.1 CM7 what do I need to wipe ?

- cache

- dalvik cache

- format sd-ext ??
[Desire Android Development] o$$!ram:
Simply wipe dalvik + cache ... No full wipe needed :-)

Also the installation should run without problems ...
[Desire Android Development] N3m3515:
a2sd version installs without any problems.

i am rebooting now.

Edit: hm it hangs on boot... i think its time for a full wipe
[Desire Android Development] devshin:
On CM7 it installed ok, and runs just fine :D
[Desire Android Development] N3m3515:
hm noeven with full wipe it wont boot... where can i find the logs to send you? so you know what went wrong
[Desire Android Development] dbanzon:
Upgraded from cm7 v2.1 to 2.2 with cache and dalvic cache wipe. Working great!

Btw do i have to flash again the oc screenstate zip file i flashed after upgrading?
[Desire Android Development] Kiss999:
@N3m3515 - How long you wait at the first time boot ?
[Desire Android Development] o$$!ram:
Please flash again, go in recovery to menu "other" or "advanced" and look for "move recovery.log to sd" - or something, depends on recovery image that you use ... then mount sd-card and look after the "recovery.log" file and post it here (upload it as atachmend ;))

If you have android-sdk installed: type in cmd window: "<android-sdk-folder>\platform-tools\adb logcat" (android-sdk-folder is the folder where its installed ;)) and you will see the log directly from your phone ...
[Desire Android Development] st_voss:
Upgrading from a2sd+ v2.1 to 2.2 with cache wiping also worked. Problems with writing boot.img are gone for me. Good job.
[Desire Android Development] N3m3515:
Allright... I'm really really sorry... It was my fault... It's working great :) thanks for the great Rom
[Desire Android Development] o$$!ram:
Nice! And what was the problem?

Edit:

[ot on] OOOH! my 500. post :rolleyes: [/ot off]

If someone will see with what SGBS is made: http://eiseispinguin.de/pics/100811/DSCN1553.JPG :D (got today a small update so i made a picture ;))
[Desire Android Development] Sephi:
So cache and davilk chache and then flash 2.2 should work?

Getting ignored on all fronst with my music skipping problem is annoying. I don't know what to do. :(
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Nice..i use a 500 euro laptop..with win7 and ubuntu ;)
[Desire Android Development] mr_spatel:
Hi I am on version 2.2 played mp3 360kb and m4a albums, with no skipping. Not sure what the problem could be.
[Desire Android Development] mrtt2:
Not sure if this is a problem with the ROM or something else... After installing 2.1 (clean install with full wipe, new formatted SD) and later the 2.2 update (both for oxygen hboot) on my dad's phone, some applications (Spotify, some others) disappeared from the market. The online market (market.android.com) said that those apps were incompatible with the phone linked to his google account (TDC HTC HTC DESIRE) and it was impossible to install them via the web interface.

I copied build.prop from my own desire which runs the leedroid hd port to his phone, and all the apps appeared again. The android market website now says they are compatible. So all problems were fixed by that :confused:

Any ideas why it wouldn't work with the stock installation? I'm not really convinced that my temporary fix is that good, since it might break something else?

PS. Here's some info about the phone:

alpharev oxygen r2 hboot

32 gb sd class 10 with 2 gb of ext4 and rest fat32

4ext 2.1.0 recovery

carrier is TDC DK.

Thanks in advance :)
[Desire Android Development] AssassinSvK:
wiped cache+dalvik flash 2.2 on cm7 hbbot, everything is fine, little bit faster, overscroll removed, superb rom :)

and dont know what you did but my sdcard writing speed was increesed,

now i got 11mb/s write and 19mb/s read

:D
[Desire Android Development] jozef710i:
I flash CM7 version full wipe and i have only 130MB frr without my apps and in root explorer i have empty ext partition but free space on ext is only 600MB full size is 1GB?? Why??
[Desire Android Development] Sephi:
Does the sense 3.0 sms/mail add on work with this version? Is it good? Or is it slower? How to install?
[Desire Android Development] jozef710i:
Flash via recovery
[Desire Android Development] Sephi:
Is it useful? Better/faster? I think the standard one is ok?
[Desire Android Development] Sephi:
ROM is working fine for me, but the streak live wallpaper isn't. It's fine in the preview but it's not working when I click on "Annehmen". Instead it's umping back the old one.

EDIT:

Also I can't find the new keyboard...
[Desire Android Development] jozef710i:
When u writeing message hold the fingger on screen and then tap to input metod and select android keyboard
[Desire Android Development] AssassinSvK:
yeah can confirm GB keyboard is there, but for me the old one seems to be better as GB keaboard :) but both looks nice
[Desire Android Development] Sephi:
Yeah, thx. Is the streak live wallpaper working for u guys? What do you guys think of sms/e-mail 3.0?

Can plz anyone help me with that damn music skipping problem? I don't know what to do. My wirting speed is 5,5 MB/s and Reading speed is 9.1 MB/s. That can't be too slow, can it? So it's not the SD-Card? But it's working alomist 99% fine with poweramp and buffer set to huge.
[Desire Android Development] erklat:
Nice rig mate. XS school? :D

With oxygen hboot you left davlik on /data?
[Desire Android Development] o$$!ram:
Dont do an Preview! Only tap on the Wallpaper preview in "Wallpaperchooserapp" then it works ;) - known bug in (i think) every rom ;)

Sense 3 SMS/MMS should be included as stock with 2.2

Audio skiping: i read your posting but i dont know what to do ... when i know an solution is let you know! But when you post a thousand time the same its really annoying ... i said you that i have no solution till now and i dont know what to do! AND: im not a dev - so my knowledge is not that high that i can solve ever problem.

@ erklat

Thanks :D Nope its http://hardwareluxx.de school :D

And yes, dalvik is on /data.

@ mrtt2

Hmm ... till now i dont found the best "fingerprint" for market ... in the newest version is the official fingerprint from htc included.
[Desire Android Development] Sephi:
It seems somehow related to cache...is there an option to give the stock htc music player a bigger cache? I wrote an email to a dev who somehow could know what to do. Do you think it could also be related to the SD-card? But read/write speed should be enough.

That said, the only difference between your an my phone is probably the sd-card and I got the problem adn you don't, so...
[Desire Android Development] o$$!ram:
Try it (different sd-card) - its the fastest and easiest way ;)
[Desire Android Development] o$$!ram:
Ähm? Installs CM7 normaly Apps to /data? i dont know ... i thought /data is for davik and so on and not for apps?!?

Edit: your screens - are the names correct? because before: /data: 136MB | sdext: 768MB and after: /data: 114MB | sdext: 733MB

!? where is now more available as before? :D

sorry, entweder ich steh gerade auffem schlauch oder ich versteh dich absolut nicht ;)
[Desire Android Development] Hypercaine:
Stock hboot. Working. Nice and stable :)
[Desire Android Development] bliblablub:
Maybe the names are wrong then, dunno ;) Just compare the times ^^

It also could be because of the Flash player as it was one of the apps I installed
[Desire Android Development] o$$!ram:
yeah ... and whats the problem? booth has less space - apps installs to /sd-ext and dalvik cache is bigger on /data - I thought!? :D

finally :)
[Desire Android Development] cgmorris89:
Looks great this...how's the battery life?
[Desire Android Development] o$$!ram:
I unfortunately can not say exactly because I'm too much time to try on and therefore quite often the USB cable is plugged in;)
[Desire Android Development] wil3:
Hehe, I've flashed and there was the same issue as before :-) now downloading proper version :-)
[Desire Android Development] o$$!ram:
Jou ... i have changed the file server and forgot that ... i uploaded the new file to the new server and linked the file (booth with same filename) to the old server :( Sorry!
[Desire Android Development] pmelichar:
thank you

Hi, really thank you for this rom! This is exactly what I was looking for. I was using insertcoin's 1.0.8 CM7 version of gingerbread rom, but I hate all the sence 3.0 stuff so much, that i returned temporarily back to android 2.2 rom. Now I am going to download this one;)
[Desire Android Development] o$$!ram:
For this reason there is this rom :) (I'm of the same opinion)
[Desire Android Development] cgmorris89:
Fair enough :D I guess I'll just have to flash it to find out!
[Desire Android Development] cgmorris89:
Just flashed, and so far so good. Good work!

Is there any known way to get rid of the "Recent Apps" bar in the notification menu?
[Desire Android Development] o$$!ram:
RRA_CM7

RRA_A2SD
[Desire Android Development] qsmzgs:
FC is still the case, the album features special effects when FC
[Desire Android Development] axbilly:
In insertcoin1.0.8, there is a bug with video orientation. With camcorder, if i record in potrait mode, when on device playback, the image is stretch.

I was wondering if this ROM is the same?
[Desire Android Development] o$$!ram:
On my phone camera works fine ...

@ qsmzgs

what? :confused: where are fcs?
[Desire Android Development] qsmzgs:
Click on the album, any picture, choose the effects will be FC(My English is not good.)
[Desire Android Development] o$$!ram:
okay ... i dont know what you mean? :o album (pictures!?) and then any picture ... but there are no "effects"?! On camera effects works ...
[Desire Android Development] theooo:
Just installed this rom on my phone and all i can say is, this is what i looking for :D hybrid rom with sense 3 stuff is awesome, but for now i think its too heavy for our hardware to run. So i think sense 2.1 is the best we can get now. Great job dude!
[Desire Android Development] qsmzgs:
Click "Gallery","all photos",Select any picture,Click"Effects"or"Crop"will be FC
[Desire Android Development] Sephi:
Probably. That said there are quite a few reports on this issue regarding gingerbread, although it's not the HTC desire. I'd love to know what they changed...maybe it's a combination of GB and certain SD-cards...
[Desire Android Development] mnaeh:
Great work man!! This is the most stock looking ROM I found and that's why I like it so much. The moment I uninstall Java and More Locale with a little help of Titanium Backup it feels perfect :)

After a few days of testing I just wanted to comment a few things I encountered so far using 2.1 and 2.2 (all day today).

First here is my standard procedure (maybe here lay the reasons for some of the bugs I found… you tell me):

I use Titanium Backup to backup contacts, sms/mms, calendar entries, accounts, wifi settings, bookmarks along with user apps and their. I also try to backup/restore bluetooth pairings but that doesn't seem to work for some reason. Immediately after flashing your ROM (after full wipe and Dalvik wipe) I set up only wifi connection, download TB from their website and restore everything. Then I reboot.

And here is what I found:

Java app sucks :)

Profile widget is here in 2.2. It was missing in 2.1 (at least in my case). Kudos, cause I really like that one! :)

In calendar app I can see entries I restored via TB, but when I click on a specific day I see it's blank. I also tried to create event but it after popup tells me "event created" nothing appears. Note that I only use PC Synch calendar.

When I click on Agenda it only says "Loading…" and never loads anything

In "People" application, tab "All" shows only "Loading…" and never loads any data (I tried all different view combinations: Google, Phone, All, Only with phone number, none…) while tabs "Groups" and "Call History" show everything OK. I can also see all people along with the recent calls in Dialer app normally. Should I maybe blame TB??

Unfortunately wifi still doesn't work well in areas with weak signal. It didn't work on 2.1 with that patch and it doesn't work in 2.2 either. Bummer…

I hope I wasn't too boring :) Just keep up the great work!
[Desire Android Development] N3m3515:
my fault was: i didnt wait long enough.... i feel bad about that sorry

yes the wifi problem is not gone but:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16522050&postcount=330

i found this
[Desire Android Development] o$$!ram:
1. Java app is removed

2. cant say it - dont use :D

3. I think its TB fault ... sorry for that answer .p

4. dito

5. dito

6. I noticed it now too ... baaaaad driver ... will include the linked one from N3m3515 in 2.3 (and MUCH other changes :D)
[Desire Android Development] Sephi:
Which changes? O.o
[Desire Android Development] o$$!ram:
Changelog till now in 2.3:

- Changed Tweak script (included Juwe11's RAM Optimize)

- added HTC Fakecall widget (hehe :D)

- Fully working Settings.apk (thx Michaelm_007)

- updated FlashPlayer, Youtube

- Added "change installation location" script

- new Wifi Module (n-mode, rssi mod - thx Myshkinbob)

- Debugging Notification disabled

- Changed ROM-Fingerprint for better Market compalibilty
[Desire Android Development] mnaeh:
I tried the new WiFi module (copied the file from zip over the one in the modules folder using root explorer followed by hard reset) and it still doesn't work as it should. I have a Desire with stock froyo to compare side by side.

:(
[Desire Android Development] devshin:
I wanted to ask about two things:

1. Text to Speech in settings - is it back ?

2. I have a weird bug/feature - when the screen is off and i turn it on, then for about a second or two the screen has full brightness, then it goes darker
[Desire Android Development] o$$!ram:
1. Yes :D

2. Auto Brightness!? If you dont want it: Settings -> Display -> Brightness

or in QuickSettings -> Brightness
[Desire Android Development] devshin:
Maybe you should try another RIL ?

SGBS by default uses HTC-RIL 2.2.0028HM

I've read that HTC-RIL 2.2.0121HM works quite good, you can find it in this post

HTC Desire's Family RIL Packages
[Desire Android Development] Sephi:
Camera app keeps crashing after one or two photos...
[Desire Android Development] jozef710i:
Same here :-(
[Desire Android Development] qsmzgs:
Same here!
[Desire Android Development] N3m3515:
i made 10 fotos with sgbs 2.2 a2sd+ version on pvt1 with 4ext recovery 2.1.3 and no force close. what versions are you using?
[Desire Android Development] jozef710i:
i have SGBS 2,2 CM7r2 RMD Recovery v1.0.3.4

i take 20 photos and nothing happen but later i take one photo and my phone freezes
[Desire Android Development] wings400:
can I use your rom without an EXT partition?
[Desire Android Development] N3m3515:
no. ext partition is required
[Desire Android Development] Sephi:
Yeah, sometimes it works better but it's far from stable.
[Desire Android Development] mnaeh:
Thanx for the tip! I tried different RILs as you suggested but unfortunately I am still loosing wifi at some points which is very frustrating. I guess I am stuck with stock :) …at least for now, until our savior, ossarm, or some other great mind of this wonderful community finds an answer. Still I am not giving up, just slowing down a bit…

Until that day (fingers crossed) can someone answer me:

Is there maybe a stock-like ROM, that you can recommend, similar to this one, with Sense 2.1 but with Froyo instead of Gingerbread?

After I recover my old-but-trusty system from NAND backup (like I do every morning since this is a business phone I need it fully functional during the working day) can I install that lovely Sense 3.0 messaging app to replace the "old one" I have, and how? (zip from recovery, or some other way?)

Can I install new HTC widgets (I know I can that try myself but you can at least spare me unnecessary "system restore"). Is there anywhere a good collections of those (besides HTC hub).

Can you point me out to some good tutorial for apps2sd or some other way to save precious storage space (most of the topics are old and many methods are deprecated. I would like to know what is "in" and best right now :)) I am rooted and S-OFF-ed with 1GB EXT4 partition on my SD card.

BTW Titanium Backup was the culprit for the broken calendar and contacts. My Backup also messes things up so I suggest if you want to backup phone contacts (not Google) do it the old fashion way – export vcf to SD card. Still better that pen and paper :)
[Desire Android Development] o$$!ram:
1. older Insertcoin or RCmix version ... but i dont know if these are available ;)

2. Sense 3 SMS/MMS App on Froyo rom? Hmm ... dont know :-/

3. On SGBS the HTC-Hub widgets are workin ;) Ord you mean on froyo? :D

4. You are S-OFF and use the stock version? :confused: Why not CM7 or Oxygen? Oxygen is the best way - my meaning :D

@ cam problem

its sadly a known problem (of this rom) ... i dont found an solution till now, but im workin on it ... btw. i have now two phones here (my main desire pvt1 and an test phone pvt3) and on booth i dont have any problems! BUT i look what i can do :D

Ah, one small "tip": disable preview after takin a photo - eventually this helps!?
[Desire Android Development] Sephi:
Wow, this rom really drains the battery quite fast. I was at around 20% last night and this morning the phone was off. Never happened to me with froyo.
[Desire Android Development] mnaeh:
Damn! Cam and Wifi problems are present in the official HTC GB update:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=16452100

To all who experience cam problems you could try this.

To all with wifi issues... sorry :) If official driver is bad we have no place to properly steal it from :) My hopes rest with the community...

EDIT: More info on wifi issue. We are not alone: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1087441
[Desire Android Development] N3m3515:
20% over night is not much for a sense rom
[Desire Android Development] Kiss999:
Cant say this, my phone says 70% after 24h. So its not the best rom for battery but also not that bad.
[Desire Android Development] dbanzon:
maybe your battery hasnt been calibrated yet and it closed down at 15%?
[Desire Android Development] o$$!ram:
PLEASE! Stop comparing an CUSTOM ROM with an OFFICIAL(!) ROM from HTC!

Im not an dev from HTC and also far away from dev status!

And like others say: 20% are not much ... there are roms they need more over the night ;) For me my phone runs two days - without charging - the last 20% are also "fast" away ... but this i had also on official/froyo roms ...
[Desire Android Development] st_voss:
Hmm, strange. I cannot confirm a high battery drain of this rom.

Quite the contrary this rom has a rather low battery drain for me.

E.g. this morning my phone had gone from 55% to 47% overnight.

I use some battery friendly settings like weather sync every 12 hours instead of every 3 hours, turning off automatic syncing for news and shares.
[Desire Android Development] Sephi:
Sorry, nothing against you or your work. That's just the only comparison I have. Also, a bug like the camera one oviously isn't your fault and the music skipping also isn't a rom problem, it seems, more like a GB issue. So no reason to be upset.
[Desire Android Development] o$$!ram:
All is easy ;) But i heard so often "this is not in froyo" or "this is not with stock rom" ... and cant hear it anymore :D This is an rom from someone that startet with 0,0% of knowledge in developing :D And it has bugs - no question :D But please dont compare it to htc roms :D (not only you ;))

Greets o$$!ram

P.S. i hope i can upload v2.3 this evening ... :D
[Desire Android Development] chichoko:
I was thinking of jumping ship from InsertCoins hybrid build to yours... Ill wait for the changelog of 2.3 :)
[Desire Android Development] qsmzgs:
Hi,ram,good job!

I think that Cam problems are present in the official HTC GB,wait for the V2.3.:)
[Desire Android Development] o$$!ram:
Yes ... i also read this in the "changelog" thread ... hmm ... nice for me :p bad for them which have the problem (me doesnt effect ...)
[Desire Android Development] erklat:
Anyone using alternative launcher instead of the Sense overlay? Zeam and LPP both lag as hell. Anyone with any suggestion?

Sense overlay works nice, it is very smooth scrolling the homescreens, but in app drawer lag cannot be caught anyway since it scroll.

Everything except this I read in the last few pages works nice. Not a bad bit of a job for starter in developing at all ;)

Also, are you sure that 128-384 scaling range is a good idea? I suggest seeing is there a lag waking the phone up with fixed 245mhz frequency, and checking if the 128 state kicks in at all. I remember having such profiles for screen off with setcpu back in the day when I thought it was the best app evar (:D), 128mhz rarely kicked in.

EDIT: Zeam works decently after I set all up. Will post my observations as I get along with this rom.
[Desire Android Development] Sephi:
Google Maps is crashigh quite frequently for me.
[Desire Android Development] chichoko:

Hi o$$!ram, since you have modified wifi drivers, wireless performances are decreased. This was the only gb sense Rom that worked greet with poor WiFi sigal, but now is like the others, because when signal is poor, it drops and automatically switches to 3g connection. Is it possible to flash old WiFi drivers? Thanks

Inviato dal mio HTC Desire usando Tapatalk
[Desire Android Development] o$$!ram:
Old wifi drivers dont work on new kernel :(

Or did you mean the modified one from 2.2? Please try v2.3 - there are again new drivers ;)
[Desire Android Development] xky1980:
until 2.1 version, wifi worked. I've tried new wifi module on leedroid3.3R5 and signal is better, now I will try it on sgbs 2.2 and on 2.3 when you will upload it online.

Thanks for your work!!!!
