Still running very well

Hey Stang,

This really is a great ROM. I'm liking it more all the time.

I haven't had any more Sense FCs, but now and again I get a Market FC out of nowhere (like when I'm not using it). Not sure what to make of that.

I do seem to be getting better tower signal with this one than with other ROMs, but when I checked the software info, I get an odd PRI value - "Not ready". What's up with that? I know this isn't your ROM, it's probably something I did. Question is how do I fix it?

Here's what I did to install and set up:

Factory wipe

wipe Dalvik (probably redundant, but I'm paranoid)

format /system

format /boot

install

reboot

set up wifi and accounts (manually, GMail and personal IMAP only)

wait for Sense 3.5 to install all the apps it thought I wanted re-installed :rolleyes:

set up radio (*228 - 1, reboot, *228 - 2, reboot)

That's where things were a bit weird. When I chose option 1, it seemed to complete almost instantly, but didn't reboot. When I ended the call, it rebooted.

I assumed it worked, but this PRI value seems wonky. Do you think reprogramming will fix it?

BTW, I'm running the 2.15.10.07.07 radio. I've considered dropping back to the previous one, but I haven't jumped yet.

Couple other things:

I love that this ROM lets you add or remove home screen panels. I always felt like 7 was too many - feel like I have to fill them all up, which probably doesn't help with lag. I also love that a lot of this is riddled with knobs and configs for customizing. I'm a knob turner through and through! :D

One config I can't find is the color for the overscroll edge glow. Kinda wanted to stick with the android green for some silly reason. Or maybe that blue in your awesome boot animation. Figured since I could configure the battery and clock color, the edge glow would be configurable as well. Any ideas?

Thanks again for this ROM. I'm finding the lag very minimal at worst, and non-existent at best. WiFi works great, home screens flip like butter, and the general look and overall responsiveness is great. And I haven't even fiddled with setCPU or tried Tiny's kernel yet.

Awesome work. If you can improve this, you're something else man.

Cheers!

Update: Reprogramming doesn't correct the PRI. Still not sure if I should flash another radio ...

Huge bug pictures don't save to the phone ???
[Droid Incredible Android Development] josh0426:
Im not totally sure but i dont think any of the 3.5 roms save to phone. Someone correct me if im wrong.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] xdadevelopers-user:
Installing this (and the ROM it's based on) fails for me unless I remove stuff from /system. I run out of space during the extraction of the /system files. It's not an obvious failure unless you look at the /tmp/recovery.log during install.

Can those of you who it works for check to see if you have "/system/xbin"? I don't unless I modify the ROM zip file (or delete stuff as it's installing). I've been deleting /system/customize/resource/bootanimation.zip since it's not essential and is kinda large. When I delete that it installs completely without errors. If I don't delete it it fails to setup all the symlinks to busybox I'm missing all the xbin binaries. This includes su so things that need root don't work.

Also, could someone run 'df /system' and post the result for me to compare?

Here's what my /system looks like after install:

/system: 253952K total, 253152K used, 800K available (block size 4096)

I'm mostly interested if my total differs from others. Is it even possible to change the size of /system (/dev/block/mtdblock3)

Thanks,

-xdadevelopers-user
[Droid Incredible Android Development] keyslapper:
Are you doing the factory wipe then formatting /boot and /system before installing? That would be my first guess.

It may be redundant, since it's part of the data cache that gets wiped in the factory wipe process, but I also explicitly wipe the dalvik cache just because I'm paranoid.

Hope this helps.

Cheers
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Upstreammiami:
Yes they do
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Kiboe:
So.....it works with root or not? And would I be able to flash a different rom if need be? Or is rom flasholing dependant on the bootloader? (Which has been unlocked for well over a year now)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Upstreammiami:
im so pissed i just took like 50 pictures not knowing they weren't saving lol
[Droid Incredible Android Development] keyslapper:
Damn. Might have a showstopper here (for me, anyway).

Tried setting up my work eMail. Exchange ActiveSync. Kept failing on authentication, even though I know i have the userid and pw right. Finally, it seemed to go through, but I got a "Failed to create account. Please try again later" popup. What's up with that?

While trying again, I got a phone reboot.

Market is still force closing at random.

Gonna try to work this out. This ROM is too cool to just bail.

Update: Seems to be going through now, but I'm getting the dreaded policy conflict now - "Device encryption enabled". How the hell does one modify the device encryption?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Upstreammiami:
I add new files to the sdcard but the phone won't see them
[Droid Incredible Android Development] br125:
which hboot are you running. There were issues before when the new sense roms came out with what you are describing. The newest, .92, has different partition sizes and was necessary for me to flash new roms. So I would check that out first. also are you on the newest recovery?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] xdadevelopers-user:
I've gotten some good (but already tried) advice on my issue but no one answered the two specific questions.

1. Do you have /system/xbin?

2. What does 'df /system' report?

Thanks to those who have offered their help. It's always appreciated. And thanks to those who can answer the above questions.

They probably saved to internal phone storage. Did you check? I found mine when I mounted EMMC to PC. They were in /DCIM/100MEDIA

[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
I don't know why your running out of space in system. Usually when building roms its necessary to keep the system folder under 250MB. Now this dosn't meen to make a very tiny system folder size by syming everything out to data. This isn't good for the phone. Android loves tight spaces. Its better to use every drop of available space without going over that 250 mark. Why? Less junk in data=More Ram and also more room for user apps. So normally what I will do is only put what is required for file size into data. For yall that see large amounts of ram in my roms this is why. Now, in this rom I say the system folder size should not be an issue because it is at 241.3MB. Well under whats required. So whatever is the issue is with your install isn't in the rom. It could be that recovery isn't doing its job or who knows, maybe your system block has went bad.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Upstreammiami:
your right but the gallery app still wont see them
[Droid Incredible Android Development] zoomy942:
have you logged into OWA and looked at the device partnerships? I had to do that once from all the flashing i have been doing.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Goldeneye877:
No emmc music?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] keyslapper:
OWA? I guess not. What is it?

Edit: Oh, Outlook Web Access ...

Yeah, I had like 5 entries in there. That wasn't the problem though. I still get "Policy setting incompatible: Device encryption enabled"

Good piece of info to have though. Thanks.

Update: Seems this is due to the fact this ROM traces its roots back to the Droid Incredible 2 release. Seems it was a known problem. So is this the case with all Sense 3.5 ROMs?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] localceleb:
the boot animation made me smile
[Droid Incredible Android Development] BBEgo:
Wow, Stang! Good work on this one! I just flashed and got everything loaded and updated. This is one slick Rom.

I've been running Nils' latest 3.5 and loving it (after installing Quick Launch, Tiny's kernel, and the Sense 3.0 camera mod), and yours is every bit as snappy. Both Roms would make great daily drivers.

Only thing I can see that bugs is on the stock browser, text on the forums doesn't 'word-wrap' when you zoom.

One other issue I've found probably isn't even due to the Rom. The HTC translator widget has a feature that will speak the translation to you, but when you select it, it has you download a Market app for speech synthesis. Once the app is installed, you should be able to have it speak. But it just sends you back to the Market to download the app again.

Great work, man!

Sorry to be a noob here, but how do you extract those apk files like the friend stream?

Update: extracted the friends widget from one of newtoroot rom, but I keep getting the HTC loading screen screen every time it tries to update the status.

3 music related issues.. if anyone else is having....

First is for a specific app.... I use PlayerPro and it keeps force closing when I try to enter a menu.. but only then (which unfortunately is where randomize all is located)

Second is I can't seem to find the dsp manager on this rom.... Third might be related to the second... How do you turn Beats on? Off? is it an app?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
Heh, yea I forgot to put the DSP Manager in. You can just download the app called root tools free and it has an option to install it for you.

I don't know whats going on with beats and honestly really don't care to fix it even. Everyone that claimed to have gotten it to work has said it dosn't even sound good. All cracklish and hissy. Don't think I want that in my rom:)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
I don't know what your asking or want? You want me to compare what I did that newt didn't?

There is a changlog posted. Basically that tells everyone what I have done since I based with this rom. So I guess just compare that to whatever newt did.

EDIT: But yes, I did tweak this rom pretty heavily. Pretty much converted everything from Inc2 to Inc standards.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
MAKE SURE TO SET THE PERMISSIONS. You can use the app called Root Explorer to do it yourself or rom manager can set them for you. Make sure you reboot afterwards for the perm changes to take effect.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jdog94:
well i got the friendstream app but how do i get the widget?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
Reboot?

Should be working. It works on my end.

Go into browser setting if wrap-able text is unchecked? Im bsing but it sounds good enough:)

There is also a friendstream widget. Look for com.htc.FriendStream3DWidget.apk in newts rom if you have it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NYC Coyote:
Thanks.. I think you meant Root Toolbox Free and it worked: http://bit.ly/oWVjh4

Is anyone else having the same issue with PlayerPro? http://bit.ly/i690xf

I'm also having trouble mounting emmc.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildstang83:
yea thats what I meant.

eMMC mounting to pc? Don't use the stock usb app anymore. Notice the new toggle in the status bar pulldown when you plug in usb? Use that instead. Thats a custom made app made by conap just for my roms that mounts both SD and eMMC properly.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NYC Coyote:
Yep..that worked.. missed it earlier... now its just that one damn app.. too bad its the best sounding music player on the market....rrrrrrrrrrr

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Teh_Tech:
Hi all!

I have spent over half an hour searching but to no avail so thought I'd ask here, how are the kernels hacked or modified?

When it comes to the real tech stuff I'm a bit lost, and to be honest before I stumbled across this site I knew nothing about making custom ROMS, but thanks to all of you out there, you have taught me loads without me asking much, so its here I need to ask!

Thanks in advance for your time & replies,

Arty.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crendot:
just search the web for "linux kernel" the android kernel is a linux one.

when you know a bit about linux kernel you can add kernel mods to it, as in android.

you just need to download the source of the kernel modify it and compile it than.

hope this helped a bit

ps.: and if you dont have the source you have to be a tech/kernel genius like -snq
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Teh_Tech:
Thanks for your reply there crendot!

I was afraid I'd have to know about Linux stuff, which to be quite honest I dont!

I have messed about with a Ubuntu Virtual Machine in the past (when I first read how to root the Desire) but I find it too difficult to understand, I'm much more at home with the old DOS commands personally!

Only reason I ask is that my fone is playing up and has overheating / reboot loop issues with anything greater than Android 2.2 (since it came back from repair when I dropped it & cracked the screen completely) and so far I am stuck with my own slightly customed Rooted 2.2 with standard features (no 4-in-1 menu, no wake & unlock on trackpad and the DSP manager wont work) also, I have not yet tested it, but I know only a few kernels will let me send & recieve MMS, the previous build was a lightly customed LeeDrOiD_V3.0.8.2_GB_A2SD ROM, but alas kept bootlooping after it became warm and I found I couldnt do much with it :-(

I am hoping to get a shiney new Sensation soon, but until then I wanted to know how to modify the kernel to add / remove stuff!

Is there an easy way to take a kernel file & be able to 'read' it so I could copy the stuff I need into the stock kernel at all, or is that my wishfull thinking again?

Thanks again & sorry about the long reply!

Arty.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andQlimax:
to understand what a kernel for the desire is, u can download the stock one on the htcdev.com site http://htcdev.com/devcenter/downloads

for example u can download the latest for our desire: "HTC Bravo – GB MR – 2.6.35 kernel source code"

that is the source code..u will see there are thousands of .c files...is not easy at all modify the kernel..it requires strong skills on linux and C language

about the send sms and mms, that is related to the rom and ur apn settings i think..not to the kernel..the kernel handle very low level actions..

maybe u would like to make custom roms..this is a bit much easy if u just cook it for example with the android kitchen (search for it)..the rom contain the kernel and the operating system and some apps
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crendot:
so lets check the facts!

did the phone overheat when it came back from repair (with stock rom)?

or have you flashed the new rom instant?

i would say you save all your stuff and do a nandroid backup.

than you follow this instructions to flash the rooted stock 2.2 rom and the radio

if the problem is still there i would say its a hardware problem, if not you can try other roms as long as no problems occure

dont play around with kernels, you dont have to, the stable kernels are in the roms

if they arent stable for you its not the kernels fault

i guess something messed up while you flashed something...

ps.: if you have absolutly no linux skills and so on, i would say you read into that before playing around with your mobile ^^
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crendot:
hi, ok it really sounds like they have messed up your little desire!

first of all i want to apologize i thought you dont have a clue about anything ^^

so i would suggest you try to flash a new radio maybe the 32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.23 helps, if you have it on your mobile reflash it just to be sure(if you have a different hboot, you have to do it with fastboot)

if this didnt help, i would say you try to flash the RUU

and when that fails i would start yelling at the customer support :)

wish you the best

ps.: i just started thinking if it is maybe the battery, change it with a/the other one

[Vega General] edilakes:
Hi there,

I´ve a Vega and I installed de vegacomb build 7. Discovered that once it was power off it stucks in the vegacomb logo endlesly. I updated to build 8.1 and the same problem came across.

I found a GTab rom and as the tablet has multiple names (mine´s is actually called dvc p10 P10AN class 3G version) I installed it by error.

Now there is no way to plug it to de PC in recovery mode again and it doesn´t start at all, the screen seems to get on, but nothing happens.

The power-back button combination doesn´t work any more. Any suggestion?

Thnx a lot!
[Vega General] O_G:
make sure the tablet is fully charged and plugged into the

Mains when you try to enter recovery. It should get there in the end.

Please post questions in the general section. This is for development only!

In your Windows desktop make sure you're looking at the device manager to ensure you can see if a device is detected. Also make sure you have sound, it helps to know when a deviced is plugged.

Fully charge the Vega.

Make sure the charger is plugged into the Vega

Connect the USB cable from the Vega to a tested USB port directly on the PC (not into a USB hub)

Press and hold back and then press power on the Vega.

Hope it works!
[Vega General] edilakes:
I´ve tried the back-power button combination as I always do, the thing is now the device is not recongnized by de PC. Nothing appears.

Don´t know if anyone has another combination of buttons or solution.

Thanks again, when this is solved we can go back to the enless logo at the start, but now I have this previous problem.
[Vega General] Goomy:
sometimes it doesnt show anything on the screen.

so your Vega will have black screen. follow procedure to put it in recovery mode then execute DEFAULT EXE from Vega website it will open CMD window and tell you that device is not connected or just start installing.

if it says not connected then try again to put it in recovery mode etc till you get install running. It will work AFAIK recovery on Vega + hardware buttons makes it brick proof but i might be wrong :) there is always first time :P

Goomy
[Vega General] edilakes:
After millions of tries it finally works!... Now we can go to the problem with the endless logo loop at the start up of the vegacomb 8.1.
