It's really strange that it won't boot when MIUI works. I think the MIUI is still based on this ROM.

Can you tell what hboot you got and what settings you choose etc?

It's a bit hard to pinpoint the problem with so little info
[Desire Android Development] Sandvold:
Take a look in the n1 forum and look for the rampv32 cam libs (not that exact name, but he got his own thread)

I would have a look in those files, but ofc take them from the 0.4.4.4.1

It's no real way of telling what you should start with, but do one file at the time. I would start with the camera.qsd8k.so

If that doesn't work then try the libs. The answer is probably in there somewhere
[Desire Android Development] abellimz:
Hey guys, may I know how do i flash only the kernel files from this rom? Dont askmeto reflash, because I don't want some files tto be replaced
[Desire Android Development] vashishtuday:
Hmm

1. You can get the kernel u want from the zip file (ROM)

2. Or google the kernel you want , just download the kernel and falsh over the top
[Desire Android Development] doquentin:
I had similar problems.

The problem was, that I used custom Hboot sizes.

Had to try with the /system partition size. 200 MB is working fine.

What Hboot you are using?
[Desire Android Development] murkie[nl]:
I did a full wipe again and still no updates/notifications from apps except whatsapp..

Other weird thing (no biggy) is that the wifi and mobile network icon in te taskbar were blue colored at first but now they are grey only. It does work though but it is a pain in my ass that it isn't still a blue icon :$

Besides that I'm experiencing problems installing apps from the play store. Sometimes I receive the message that an error occurred during the purchase (free app though) or something like that. I receive the error in Dutch so I don't know the exact English error message.

When I try to install apps through play.google.com on my computer the apps are not pushed to my HTC Desire.

Anyone else with (one of) these problems?

EDIT: It looks like the problem occurs when I restore my titanium backup from a previous beta (0.4.4.4.1)

I did another flash with full wipe and without titanium backup restore and the icons stay blue. I bet the push notifications will work again as well since the grey icons are related to android not being able to connect to the google servers properly.

EDIT 2: I can confirm my issues with the push notifications was caused by the titanium backup restore.

I installed all the apps manually again and did not restor titanium backup and everything works fine now (the grey wifi/mobile icon indicates that there is no connection to google servers which provide the push notifications).

I only have an unstable (read crashing) camera app (used the old cam stuff from the setup)
[Desire Android Development] jfassbinder:
Everything works fine on mine. Didn't even full whipe the last few updates. Also the Wifi is very blue :D and push comes in nicely.

All stock, except "old camera" wich I downgraded using the zip, mentioned a couple of posts earlier.
[Desire Android Development] EViollet:
Not convinced it will change anything in terms of battery usage.

To start with, interactive should be the worst for the battery. It tends to scale up very fast. So you'll be using high frequencies more often. Smartass is supposed to be a mix between interactive (when the screen is on) and ondemand (when the screen is off) and forces the CPU to lower frequencies when the screen is off.

Also, the most important thing to check is how much time the CPU spends in deep sleep. Deep sleep@128Mhz uses up almost as much battery as deep sleep @768Mhz. So actually, despite what you may think, higher frequencies aren't necessarily bad.

And to end the discussion, I use Tiamat/smartassV2 and on idle use about 4mA/hour battery which gives rather good battery stats. And CPU Spy says 75% deep sleep.

Check your apps and see which ones are preventing your phone from entering deep sleep.

Regards,
[Desire Android Development] lenny_kano:
It still is based on this, but the init scripts, aroma installer, a2sd setups, all framework files and most apks are in no way based on this, so theres plenty of room for things to work differently. Basically libs and binaries (most, not su or busybox) are pretty much all that remains intact. And the kernel.

/data/data becoming Read-only

Hi all,

I keep having a problem after running a2sd. For some reason, the mount point /data/data becomes a read-only file system. As soom as that happens thing start crashing. Has anyone else experienced similar? I have searched the thread but not found much of use on this topic.

Hboot = Stock

ersion = Beta_0.5.1

Full wipe before? = Yes

A2SD-script = A2SD

Logcat = will post once I manage to capture the event where the filesystem gets turned to read-only.

Any information or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
[Desire Android Development] chrismast:
I got now the second time in two days a full reset of my Desire after a BSOD...

Basically the screen is black, I have to pull battery and when ICS is loaded all apps are gone as nothing was installed ever. In addition every time the SD card is not working.

Any hint why this happens?

Hboot = Stock

ersion = Beta_0.5.1

Full wipe before? = Yes, every time

A2SD-script = A2SD stock

Logcat = Sadly no
[Desire Android Development] mattman83:
Install tiamat kernel, this has been covered (quite literally) dozens of times. It looks like texasice is working on some kernel fixes to resolve the bsod with stock kernel, but still in testing (and only for N1) at this point.

M.
[Desire Android Development] Scar89:
Battery life on Tiamat and 0.45 seems pretty good. Set CPU says the phone spends 57% @245mhz (what my min freq was set at) on smart ass v2.

*Note* Set CPU lists frequencies above 1152mhz and if you set them your phone will freeze. The new frequency scroller is really touchy.... :/

Can't wait for 0.53 or what ever it will be called so I can reflash and try and get my A2SD working better. So far 0.45 has been rock stable! :) Only crashes that happen are my fault.
[Desire Android Development] suiller:
to solve definitively my doubts about cpu freq in my script I simply force cpu at 245-245 when display is off and on the contrary, when display is on, I fix cpu at 768-1113

I didn't notice any relevant differences between using smartass or interactive

before, when I was on oxygen GB rom (2.3.7), I used ondemand with the same script and battery life is almost the same

anyway I use this sort of trick just to have a less bouncing freq cpu when I actively use it (display on)
[Desire Android Development] fatspirit:
If you're talking about this, then it doesn't work, at least for Instagram. Will try 0.4.4.1 at home - maybe it will do the trick.
[Desire Android Development] scutworker:
I'd like to try the Tiamat kernal but it it eats the battery too quickly, I'd like to revert to the stock.

Presumably I can just restore my nandroid of the system partition and that would do it. Is that true?

Cheers.
[Desire Android Development] Tuborg68:
Old camera doesn´t work either

Hi Mattman83!

Just tried to flash your recommended zip and followed up with a cache and dalvik wipe. But it didn´t help. Camera FC after a couple of pics and then the launcher starts acting up. Only a reboot will help.

Did i do something wrong?

0.5.1, Stock hboot, built in a2sd and xdata
[Desire Android Development] jfassbinder:
INSTAGRAM

OHAI! I FIXED IT :D

Nope, not really, but (surprise surprise) Instagram works just fine with 0.4.4.4.1 installed.

I'm way to noob to draw any conclusions from that, but I guess one would have to get the camera stuff from there to 0.5.1 to make it work? Yes? No?

---------- Post added at 12:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:08 PM ----------

OR… they fixed the issue with the update that came earlier…

Testing that now -.-
[Desire Android Development] Sandvold:
Ye I know that:P But it shouldn't be radically different. Was more thinking that if a clean install of MIUI works then a clean install of this ROM should work. And as far as I know then cm7r2 is the smallest hboot you use as well?

So I would guess that something isn't wiped, or that recovery(aroma) can't read his hboot and adds it as stock or something.
[Desire Android Development] Sandvold:
Ye those filenames. But use the files from 0.4.4.4.1 instead. Might work. At least that's where I think the change is that made instagram stop working.

PS i havn't tested with 0.4.4.4.1 so I'm just trying come up with a logical solution for ppl to try. Obviously it would be good to confirm that it works on that version.
[Desire Android Development] jfassbinder:
Tested on 0.4.4.4.1. WORKS! Maybe it was just the 1.0.1 Update. Testing that now on 0.5.1
[Desire Android Development] Sandvold:
Thanks for a informativ post:) All the issues are things that we're trying to fix and hopefully we can get them to work in not to long. I guess some others have questions about these things as well, so i'll sum it up.

BSOD:

99% sure to be kernel related. Obvious fix is to install the newest tiamat (the one that you can chose in Aroma installer) this is not a perfect solution, because it use more battery then the stock one.

Hotmail app:

Got no idea what's causeing it. I just installed it myself because of all the bugreports (even had to signup for a account:P) Workaround, add it to regular mailapp instead. Also it would be good to know if anyone have talked to users on other custom ICS ROM's and ask if they got similar issues. I find it strange that 1 app is having issues, when it's a function that have worked for a long time.

Waze:

Because of my traveling I got problems with troubleshoting this one, takes to much time:/

TV Streaming:

Will hopefully work soon. It's HW related. There is also some related files that won't compile properly. I think this might be what's goning to be fixed first.

Gps:

I've used the GPS a lot the last few months (everyday infact) while traveling. I've had the issue you mentioned once. And it was solved by a restart as well. Only thing I think I might do differnt though is that I turn off GPS everytime i don't need it. If you always keeps it on, then it might be something that goes wrong when it's on to long. When I had the same issue in Luang Prabang i forgot to turn it off for more then 48h, so it might be connected.
[Desire Android Development] Sandvold:
Great. One small step:)

Then I would start pushing the cam releated files from 0.4.4.4.1 to 0.5.1.

Do the ones that was mentioned earlier (rampv32's zip)

Start with:

camera.qsd8k.so

if that doesn't work then just tricks and mix until you get it to work.

I can't garantuee that it will help in any way, but it's worth a shot
[Desire Android Development] Zombie Dude:
Still, most of the things mentioned above are thankfully little issues. Great rom :)
[Desire Android Development] dankatz1:
Hboot = cm7r2

Version = 0.51

Full wipe before? = No/ dalvik+cache only

A2SD-script = Amarullz

Using stock kernel, aGPS patch, and Nova launcher.

Just wanted to say I never had any of the problems reported here. Never had BSOD (not with previous versions either), not a single freeze, and better battery from my previous sense or CM7 roms.

Using the aGPS patch after I learned it fixes all problems I have with "jumping" GPS.

The problem with Waze is here as well but is not related with the rom, it is related to the version number. Go to Waze forums and check it for yourself. Waze currently won't run on 4.0.4 for most people. I trust Waze to release an update for that just like they released an update for 4.0.3.

Just saying - Great job !
[Desire Android Development] Sandvold:
Check that for hotmail app as well:)

Im out eating so cant do it myself
[Desire Android Development] andlcool:
After i installed a2sd using terminal, my phone become impossible to use. Everything becomes very laggy. Without a2sd everything is awesome.

Hboot = cm7r2

Version = Beta_5.1

Full wipe before? = Yes

A2SD-script = Stock A2SD

Kernel = Tiamat

Could it be that my microsd is spoilt?

I have 1gb ext4.
[Desire Android Development] toub_:
What did you choose during the a2sd install ? It's safe to put dalvik on the sd y to first question) but putting data as well (second question) usually results in severe lag.
[Desire Android Development] andlcool:
I put yes for both. I installed the stock a2sd for 0.43 iirc and it was not laggy. Usable. So I dunno if anything is broken. How to I remove a2sd?

---------- Post added at 12:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:25 PM ----------

by the way, i tried with Amarullz a2sd and it was not much better with 0.51

Hello Sandvold, my configuration:

Launcher = Apex

Full wipe before? = Yes

A2SD-script = Stock A2SD

Kernel = Stock

Issues I have:

1 - Bluetooth transfert file not OK

PC -> Phone not allowed,

Phone -> PC is OK

2 - Gtalk audio call NOK, the app crash if you try an audio call

3 - GPS Aura v11.2.6 (last) start correctly but 10 minutes after reboot the phone

Otherwise very good ROM.:)
[Desire Android Development] chrismast:
Thanks for the comment but I am on tiamat all the time. Sorry forgot it in my post.
[Desire Android Development] suiller:
dear Sandvold... could you please re-use previous zip compression method?

this because right now isn't possible anymore to edit the rom zip itself (neither with regular winzip)

I really need it, but I suppose not only me, because is possible to remove not useful stuff such as GooglePartnerSetup, GoogleFeedbackAgent, etc... plus many pre-installed app that can be found in the market later (for those who really need them)... for example I remove androidterminal (I use connectbot instead) and filemanager (I use Astro), etc...

always great rom, using from many days & I had almost no issues
[Desire Android Development] Sandvold:
Nothing have changed, I don't know why ppl get that problem from time to time. I use 7zip or winrar all the time when I need to edit stuff in the ROM and I've never had a problem.

So I got absolutly no idea why this happens to someone
[Desire Android Development] tikkalamt:
When I open task manager (long press in home) I see Maps running, or at least present at the list. I wonder what launches it, because even if I kill it, it will back after a while.
[Desire Android Development] cookymonster:
Sorry if this question is already asked but i didnt read the last 940 pages :D

Whats the best configuration in the installer? Launcher, kernel, .. (im using the cm7rc2 hboot) for the best speed and smoothness?
[Desire Android Development] Sandvold:
Kernel doesn't really mather with speed, but stock makes the phone freeze sometimes, the newest tiamat use much battery.

Nova/Apex is counted as the fastest launchers it seems. (I find the difference to be minimal)

a2sd scripts really depends on your preferences + sd card.

Pretty much no options is superior to the rest. The choices are there so ppl can chose what they prefer, nothing else. So if you're unsure. Go stock and rather add the different stuff later and then compare:)
[Desire Android Development] cookymonster:
Thanks sandvoid, ill try it later again. tested it yesterday with stock options and i think its a nice rom :)
[Desire Android Development] scutworker:
Does anybody know how much more battery that kernal uses? Is it like 2/3rds as long as stock, or whatever?

Cheers.
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
It doesnt use that much more... if you look at Eviollet's post a page or 2 back you'll see that he gets 4ma usage, and does recommend the kernel (i used to use the manu kernel on the gb rom i was on, so would think he knows what he is talking about) ;)

I find it has a little more drain when the phone is being used, but no difference when on idle... might just be me though...

File manager

Hello, can you include a file manager in the next release. It will be much easiers to resintall Titanium after a full wipe.

I try to use the update option in Titanium and it didn't install the app.

I try it on BCM, and it worked. But I prefer your ROM cuz it seems more stable for me.
[Desire Android Development] Sandvold:
I might do this, at least ad it to aroma, just got to clear it with a developer so I know it's okey
[Desire Android Development] Sandvold:
pretty much my experience as well. Also might be helpful to use the autobrightnes patches that was made. Might sort the extra drain alltogether
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
So it does enable and turn on... but doesn't find the access points? A bit more description would be good...
[Desire Android Development] i_machine:
Hi, when using the stock A2SD script, and using the 'a2sd install' command in Terminal Emulator, I also moved the appdata to the SD ext partition.

But this made my phone very slow (bad SD card I guess), so I only want to move the appdata back to the phone, and keep the apps and dalvik on the ext.

Is there a command for this? Or do I need to re-flash and install everything all over?

I checked this post already, but I can't seem to find the appropriate command...

Thanks for your help.
[Desire Android Development] remat:
Hi folks :-)

I've been using this ROM since 0.3.9. Great work Sandvold! Thank you!

i just want to report my experiences with the latest versions:

I had the first BSOD about 2 weeks later than the first reported one. It occured during night while charging - stock kernel.

Than I switched to tiamats one: no BSOD anymore - but I got several random reboots, well not real reboots, but the phone switched suddenly to the startanimation. I do not know if it comes back because I pulled the battery everytime (sry - had to make calls). There are also no logcats. So I tried different daemons and clock settings - but ether the phone was very laggy (animations etc.) or I had these strange reboots.

So I switched back to the stock one with a new release (the one BSOD should be gone). Well, they were not. But what I can confirm is that they happen mostly while chargeing and, more important, it seems when i receive a call or a SMS. The problem is that these calls and massages are lost. I know that due to other people complaining...

So I switched back to tiamat. Again with the strange reboots but no BSOD and laggy (not while opening apps or so... its the cpu scheduling...)

Today I flashed the rom again... with MIUI-Kernel. Everything seems fine! Report on that later!

And one question: I did not do a full wipe after the last flashing. And i know it would probably solve the following issue, but with beta 0.5.1 I'm getting the "System UID Inconsistent" error. It says that "UIDs on the system are inconsistent, you need to wipe your data partition or your device will be unstable." Below I can click on "I'm feeling lucky" and I can enter the PIN.

My phone is as unstable as before :-) (BSOD and the strange tiamats reboots happend also before) - I'm just curious what that error causing. Any ideas? If not, don't bother, I gonna do a full wipe with the next release.

my configuration:

Hboot = cm7r2 (works great!!)

Version = Beta_0.5.1

Full wipe before? = No

A2SD-script = Amarullz

Logcat link: no logcat... sry

And again: thanks for all the great work!

greetings :-)

---------- Post added at 07:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:42 PM ----------

haha... ok...

while writing this I got a BSOD with MIUI Kernel as well... damn.

Tiamat seems to be the only option...
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
Run a2sd in terminal emulator, with root rights...

It will show a list of options... i believe you need a2sd nodatasd but there is also noxdata... i think noxdata removes just data, while nodatasd removes all a2sd flags...
