As mentioned previous, jump on to http://www.miui-au.com/ and download the NMR kernal update which is about half way down the page. Miui rom uses sandvold as a base and the kernal has been tweaked for it. Been using it for a couple of days and is running extra smooth.

The NMR kernal which is based on Drewis and doesn't have a separate thread yet, so Miui-au is the only place you can download it from.

Anyone have flicker after locking screen?
[Desire Android Development] Niteruner:
i do and additional to this i have the "black death". But only, when the phone is charging.
[Desire Android Development] macondo62:
I got 2 sleep of death charging in last 2 days too
[Desire Android Development] BMelz:
three days without screen of death.

minimum cpu: 384

CPU governer: Performance
[Desire Android Development] maxxie85:
Just had an another black death, now installing the NMR kernel.

Lets see if it helps

will report back
[Desire Android Development] an430:
what can I do if desire cannot go into recovery and turn it on. I reboot it and want to load in to recoevry, it just stay at the white HTC screen.... please help......
[Desire Android Development] Fritte_SWE:
Can you get into Hboot? If you can, try run the recovery from there.
[Desire Android Development] pix106:
So do I. I noticed it only happens if I turn the screen off BEFORE the end of the ") ) )" animation/visual effect next to the unlock button. If I wait until the animation is over, no flicker, screen turns off normaly.

I had my first and only "black death" yesterday when I tried to turn my phone on after it was locked and unused for about 1h.

stock hboot + 0.4.2.1 + stock app2sd + 1gb ext4 + no swap
[Desire Android Development] fatspirit:
Probably you have wiped recovery partition - flash it again, preferably via fastboot.
[Desire Android Development] laving1977:
backdeath's and restarts accure. no SWAP. All regular. a2sd+dalvik.

I was wondering if it can be caused by slow card? I have class 4.
[Desire Android Development] maxxie85:
No I don't think so. I also had black death and I have a class 10.
[Desire Android Development] Theshawty:
Black screens of death are most commonly solved by formatting and/or repartitioning your sd-cards. This is an sd-issue.
[Desire Android Development] MatDrOiD:
No. Also never had this "black screen"-issue.
[Desire Android Development] mattman83:
I have only seen the lockscreen flicker immediately after using the camera - it also shows in notification dropdown IIRC. It's the same kind of effect you see in camera preview so issue is definitely linked.

M.
[Desire Android Development] +BroNNoS+:
Hmmm, but sorry, I do not believe this. All the black death issues I experienced in my 'Desire life' were kernel related...
[Desire Android Development] Shiftone:
Be interesting to see if it is card related. The class rating is often misused and you'll find some class 4 cards out perform some class 10s.

Might be worth running crystal diskmark on your card and see if its as fast as it claims.
[Desire Android Development] fragargon:
well i could be wrong but crystal diskmark not supporting ext FS :rolleyes:
[Desire Android Development] 6chrisp:
Have you not had any issues with the different kernel? Black screen of death fixed?!
[Desire Android Development] mattman83:
Sure, but you have FAT32 on there too that you can use....

M.
[Desire Android Development] Boyeah04:
Nope. Not a single issue to be honest.

I am also using a class 4 SD card, so that is why I don't think the black screen issues are SD card related.

One thing I do think helps is having a swap partition set up. A lot of random reboot issues have been solved since I have been using a swap partition.
[Desire Android Development] jhannbernas:
hi guys,

Thanks for this amazing rom!

i would just like to ask how will i improve my battery life on this ICS rom. i just got 1 and half day with minimal to average usage compare to my previous sense rom which i got 3 days battery life with the same minimal usage.

Please help. Thanks!
[Desire Android Development] BlackMiracle:
can this GApps be flashed after flashing this ICS ROM?
[Desire Android Development] MatDrOiD:
Which GApps are you missing?
[Desire Android Development] fragargon:
@Matt sdcard perf is expecting on extFS.

Since 2 days no more crash or blackdeath... redo from scratch and wipe everything + format /system. I use the rom as it is. This means no CPU tuned or iosched or changing oom value... it s smooth.

Hboot cmrc2 - amarullz with sdcard c10...
[Desire Android Development] tikkalamt:
My experience might support the theory black deaths being sd-card related. As my card wasn't perfectly aligned, I re-partitioned it and flashed 0.4.2.1 after full wipe. Before I was on 0.4.1.5. I also created a swap partition. My card is class 6. Never had any black deaths.
[Desire Android Development] laserlion:
I only had two 'black deaths' over the course of 4 days, both of which accured seemingly random, so you might just be lucky as of yet! ;)

I also had some 'regular' reboots happen after 3 days aswell. Flashed the NMR kernal last night, and have not experienced any reboots or black deaths yet. Will report back later!
[Desire Android Development] Fritte_SWE:
Just wanna mention I havent had a "black death" for several days now. Only had like 3 of them the same day about rite after i wiped the phone and flashed 0.4.2.1.

So working really stable atm.
[Desire Android Development] bliblablub:
So it maybe has something to do with the standby system while the sd isn't woke up?
[Desire Android Development] 6chrisp:
Is automatic text reflow not an option on the ICS browser (or chrome)?? It's the one thing I miss from Sense.
[Desire Android Development] Soikiro:
home button doesn't work!

for you? or only on mine desire
[Desire Android Development] Fritte_SWE:
In for example the apex launcher you can select what the Home button should do. You probably just need to select what it should do.
[Desire Android Development] mattman83:
It doesn't work for any of us... just noone thought to mention it until now. :rolleyes:

M.
[Desire Android Development] dawpuc:
After installing that rom home button was working fine. After setting everything i just flash ad2sdx-1.0-RC01 and after thet home dow't work.

I wipe again mine all desire install rom again and (without restarting phone) install that ad2sdx-1.0-RC01. After that everything working fine.

One question: when camera will be working correctwly (asking about picture and video preview).

Everything else working fine. I'm staying with that rom for more time. Thx
[Desire Android Development] mattman83:
Use a different A2SD script - amarullz ad2sdx is the one most users have trouble with.

Camera preview will be done when it's done. The only way they can have an ETA is if they knew the fix. If they knew the fix then it would be... well.... fixed :)

M.
[Desire Android Development] .martin.:
really? my phone must be broken then :p
[Desire Android Development] Mokshu:
I did the same yesterday and no black death since then. This kernel seems to be more stable, and I don't see any drawbacks at the moment.
[Desire Android Development] an430:
'Regular' reboot also happen in my desire......
[Desire Android Development] lanc3lot:
For me home button works.

I use Apex Launcher and the latest rom. Is there any way i can set the back button to be the search button on my Desire? The original back button have issues on my phone, after some falls i had ;)

Thnx!
[Desire Android Development] maxxie85:
Mine home button doens't work either, also my menu button and my folume up key.

activated the on screen buttons using mattman mod. I thought it was a hardware fail.

edit:

I now use the NMK kernel from miui, maybe it has something to do with that.

I stil think its a harware fail because in the recovery my volume up button doesn´t work and my menu button barely
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
Google buttonremapper.apk... that's how I found it (couldn't see it on the market)..
[Desire Android Development] Boyeah04:
Home button didn't work for me using old kernal. Reflashed rom and all was fine.

Nothing to do with NMK kernal
[Desire Android Development] maxxie85:
If I press really hard my home button sometimes work, as it is the same thing for my menu button.

But it also doesn´t work in recovery
[Desire Android Development] Boyeah04:
Clearly nothing to do with the rom. Get a new phone

Muting calls isn't working

Hboot = Stock

Full wipe before? = Yes

Muting calls isn't working :(
[Desire Android Development] S_Kool:
about black death, i didnt have it since saturday afternoon... it could be kernel problem but stil ROM is much stable with this kernel then old one...

ooo and today for the first time phone didn't recognize my headphones when i connect them, so i do reboot and then they work' fine

anyone else with this issue??
[Desire Android Development] lanc3lot:
I have to state also that apex launcher is a wonderful choice for the rom. Very fast and stable (if only i could have Go Launcher Ex Widgets along, but cant have everything :cool:).

Thnx once more everyone for this rom!
[Desire Android Development] Aslan09:
I am using this rom for almost 2 weeks (v0.4.1.5), and I am really satisfied. It is fast and stable for so far (except the known issues of course).

I am also happy with the battery performance. After a full day of use, still got ~ 40% of battery life. With my previous rom I could nearly reach the end of the day and had to attach it to the charger (radio 32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.08).

Great rom guys! Really looking forward to the stable release :)
[Desire Android Development] kkarnaout:
hey i have that with my back button and ur only solution if u want is to clean it from the inside it means u have to take ur phone apart and clean the buttons and ur done good as new ;)
[Desire Android Development] sandi052:
After more than two weeks without any problem today my phone got a black death...

I got a call, few minutes later made a call... 10 minutes later I take my phone and it was like shoot downed, but had to put the battery out... my first BD :P
[Desire Android Development] razmattaz:
Feck!!! Ok, deleted my previous post so ill edit this... :eek:

Re: Black screen issues; I only had a few times and settled... (not sure if was 4.1.5 or 4.2.1) was random and no isolated to when phone was on charge as previously accused but stable now (full wipe between upgrades and no Ginger restores) Do not think this is SD performance related as I am only running a class2 though it could be quality related as mine is genuine SanDisk ha-ha

Bugs / Issues I am having;

1. Notification bar disappearing off screen when running in landscape most the time with dolphin and all the time with copilot.

2. Google talk: voice not working, not responsive on either in-coming or outgoing call.

3. Bluetooth headset asks to pair everytime I turn it on

4. The usual hardware acel. issues (prob not worth mentioning as fully aware off but ill add for an update so doesn't get mentioned ;), flash, video, slow browser + games not running correctly (NFS, TinTin HD, Lets Golf2)

I am thinking is also related to the QSD 8250, Adreno 200 GPU hardware acceleration issue...????

their is an acknowledgement that qual comm hear us, lets all hope https://developer.qualcomm.com/forum/qdevnet-forums/graphics-optimization-adreno/8081 ;)

Sandroid and Crew, keep up the good work!!!

Anyone curious,

1GB ext4, 256 swap (as recommended in earlier versions)

Standard A2SD (Amarullz didn't play ball earlier)

Apex launcher

AGPS

full wipe, of course! as we all should!, using beta versions or we will all report bullsh*t bugs...

Again - thanks guys! :D

Evervolv statusbar/notification toolbox

Just wondering why we never got the re-designed evervolv notification toolbox on desire?

Would be good to get this update synced from N1 :)

Or am I missing something?

NexusOne version:
[Desire Android Development] .martin.:
it is included in latest release.

it can be enabled/disabled in evervolv toolbox, then you access it by swiping across in the pull down bar.
[Desire Android Development] logox01:
KSM

Hboot = Stock

Version = Beta_0.4.2.1

Full wipe before? = Yes

A2SD-script = Stock A2SD

I just tried to activate KSM by checking the box in the evervolv toolbox, but after leaving and reentering the section i see that the option isn't set anymore. I also tried a reboot, but the result was the same ... ksm not activated (activating zram seems to work fine).

Am I the only one having this problem or isn't it working for you too?
[Desire Android Development] .martin.:
use the search feature, and you will find this has been reported.
[Desire Android Development] maxxie85:
strangely enough all buttons worked normal yesterday, until i turned off my screen again, and later back on it didn't work anymore :S:S
[Desire Android Development] Sandvold:
We will get the new evervolv toolbox as it should be on the next release. The reason it wasn't on 4.1.x was that it hadn't been pushed to our rep. The next release had it to a certain point. And the current one is missing some important parts for it to work perfectly.

I'm still trying to sort that out without having to get a new build.

But releases on N1 and desire will be given out pretty much at the same time

Hey guys, I came from cm7. I was actually on 0.4.14 and I found it very sluggish. Now Im on 0.4.2.1 and its really fast. Especially market and browser now.

Just wanted thanks sandvold for this rom, as well as the other developers.

#Sincerely
[Desire Android Development] Jack3770:
Hello, first of all I'm sorry my post won't be completely ontopic.

I have a serious problem and am currently on this ROM...so don't know where to post but here!

As mentioned, I'am (or was) on this ROM. On old version though, I think 0.3.5 or something like that.

I had stock HBoot.

I wanted to change back to CM7r2 because I wanted to change my ROM to another one (other developer).

But first I wanted to check my ext to be sure. I think I have 1gb ex3 but wanted to check by installing 4ext recovery. I downloaded the app, installed it, and then I had to download the real app "4ext touch recovery". That didn't work, it didn't download or installed the whole thing. So I pushed back (or home) a couple of times.

Maybe at this time I already screwed up my recovery?

Then I used a program FastBootCommander to flash my Hboot to CM7r2.

It said it was succesfull. Since then I'm stuck at mybootloader screen (the white screen where you can choose bootloader, reboot, recovery,...)

Everything just ends up on the same screen, even recovery, and I need that to do a fresh install of anything.

The only thing I think still works is fastboot and Fastbootcommander.

Is there a way to resolve this? Repair my recovery?

I've already reflashed to stock Hboot but ROM doesn't boot.

General question: when you're on this rom with stock Hboot, and you flash an other Hboot, it's ****ed?
[Desire Android Development] rustykwak:
Download a clockworkmod recovery from this Link and copy the file onto your sd card then boot your phone it should find it and ask if you want to flash!
[Desire Android Development] slow23:
Flash a proper recovery image from fastboot. Use fastboot commander if you don't know how to do it with commandline.

If you change your hboot at any ROM you have to reflash one, that fits this hboot. You also need to format all partitions, because the hboot is only the partition layout.

Market auto updated to new play shop :-) this the first rom were the market is very fast and smooth great work on that. Installing apps no longer lags.
[Desire Android Development] toub_:
0.4.2.1 so far soooooo good

Hi, Just updated to 0.4.2.1 from 0.4.1.5 with a cache+dalvik wipe, everything is fine up to now and the OS is smoother than ever. Great, great work !!!
[Desire Android Development] linkazoid:
Move to /data/app/ and then reboot then open market and it should ask you to accept terms again.
[Desire Android Development] Jack3770:
Thanks guys! It helped! Back up and running!
[Desire Android Development] fragargon:
No need to manually install this. It Will upgrade you market app once you connect to it. :D
[Desire Android Development] m33-snk:
I installed supercharger v6 and it's a bit smoother now.
[Desire Android Development] bungle2k3:
firstly awesome rom, and smooth ! will be donating in a sec

one thing tho, and bare with me as I have been away for a while

was previously running data ++ - with ext 4 partition on a starburst rom to give me 2gb of internal storage (with partition of my micro sd card)

is this possible with the Dalvik2SD version of this ROM ?

or is that just an Apps2SD script?

as looking at my settings my internal storage is as normal (ie not the 2gb I partitioned)
[Desire Android Development] slow23:
Use stock a2sd with xdata option and you'll have the same effect.
[Desire Android Development] bungle2k3:
:D i love you

whats the benefit of dalvik2sd then? does it run smoother?
[Desire Android Development] llcoolsave:
Thank you

Thank you everything went perfect except for the recognizing the 1000mb I partitioned on my sd.

Regards
[Desire Android Development] slow23:
The difference between Dalvik2SD and whole data2sd is, that with data2sd the application data will also be moved, which can cause lags on slow sdcards. Apps that heavily read or especially write data (or cache) will act slower.
[Desire Android Development] xelra:
Which is exactly what I experienced on my SanDisk C2. When you have data on sd-ext it can really slow down your phone.

Actually, at first I didn't notice and thought that everything was fine. But the devil is in the details. In certain apps, e.g. gReader, there was unbearable lag when doing certain actions like "mark as read".

I have noticed that lag with every app where it would save user input. Bodybuilding log, WhatsApp, etc., but always only when I would press the send respectively save button.
[Desire Android Development] an430:
My desire was updated to 0.4.2.1 from 0.4.1.5 on 1/3

There was smooth and no reboot until 5/3

As the hope of using the chrome in desire, there was a full wipe and reinstalled the rom with APEX.

There were always random reboot that feels like it dying.

I flashed the 0.4.1.5 rom again, still some reboot......

hardware problem? or software? anyone ideas?
[Desire Android Development] MatDrOiD:
How did you guys partition your SD card?
[Desire Android Development] Sklblue:
It might just be me, but has anyone else found they can no longer update spreadsheets in google docs? I can't do it from the application nor through the webpage.

I have a feeling they've changed it to use flash (well when I used it through a PC it had a flash feel/look) but can't be sure.

I might revert back to Oxygen to see if it still works there but if anyone has any ideas I'd love to hear them.

Other than that eveything has been fine on this version for the week I've had it.
[Desire Android Development] .martin.:
I just had a play around with it, I had no issues with it saving my edits.

I am running the latest versions (of ROM, Docs, and Flash)

stupid question: you are pressing apply (on far left of each row)?
[Desire Android Development] weirdsciencex:
I had a similar problem and it was quite easily remedied.

Download the attached recovery image and save it in an easy path .. ie c:\recovery.img

The using fastboot

fastboot flash recovery c:\recovery.img <enter>
fastboot reboot-bootloader <enter>

Now select 'Bootloader' by pressing power key, then select 'recovery' by pressing down volume then power key.

Flash a rom then install a recovery of your choice.

If you need to change your hboot better doing it from the command line.

You can download the various recoveries from http://alpharev.nl/

To install a hboot (cm7r2 for example)

fastboot flash hboot bravo_alphaspl-cm7r2.img <enter>
fastboot reboot-bootloader <enter>
fastboot erase cache <enter>

Remember if you are going from cm7r2 to another hboot then you need to 'downgrade' the hboot use the same procedure as above but use the bravo_downgrade.img then repeat the procedure with the hboot of your choice..

If you change the hboot when you have a rom installed you will need to reinstall the rom. Basically a hboot changes the partition layout of your phone.
[Desire Android Development] Sklblue:
I don't even get the edit button to amend a row (used to see an edit button, click on that, make changes and then click submit). I'll try to re-install just in case the update screwed it all up. OK Tuesday not Wednesday!

Thing that really confused me was when using the browser I also had the problem.

Thanks for checking and replying.

Update:re-isntalled and it's back to normal.
[Desire Android Development] laserlion:
Hi, a quick update.. I've been running this kernel now for a few days, and I've had no BDs or reboots. :)
[Desire Android Development] abellimz:
Same here. Just a point to note I'm not using a2sd, I'm on simple2ext.
[Desire Android Development] 6chrisp:
I'm also using that kernel and unfortunately I've still had a couple of BDs in 2 days :(

Weirdly, no reboots at all with the latest version of the ROM, just BDs. (I'd prefer reboots!!)

Using stock a2sd on class 4 sd card with 1GB ext3. Also using apex launcher and gps patch.
[Desire Android Development] Fritte_SWE:
I haven't had a death of the phone in ages now with only the latest 0.4.2.1. Had like 3 black deaths the first day it got released and nothing after that.

I been pushing it hard with games, apps and youtube while flipping screens and so on. Seems really stable all of a sudden with my setup in the signature.
[Desire Android Development] an430:
I use the rom manager to do it,512 mb. Any problem?

Talking of camera preview

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=23380711&postcount=2648
[Desire Android Development] weirdsciencex:
I think the Sensation uses the Adreno 220 GPU rather than the 200 which is used in the desire, so don't think it would be any help on that front.

[Desire Android Development] rustykwak:
very good news!!!:D
[Desire Android Development] Undermyoath:
I never downgraded my hboot, and still the roms and stuff always work for me.

Kinda weird, but is the downgrade so necessary to follow, can't we just go from cm7r2 to p.e. data ++ in one flash?
