Not raging here :D. Just trying to educate people to use the seach button. I did not post the solution on purpose... :D

I have also noticed it, but definitely must be something about ICS (my opinion). What it is, no idea... :confused:
[Desire Android Development] dravenSt0rM:
Does that mean that GPS is better? I didn't really tested it on ICS so far.
[Desire Android Development] BombaUcigasa:
GPS appears to be off, I don't manually turn it on, I'm indoors (where it can't lock on) and I get accuracy to 40 meters, if I want to improve this, it asks me to turn on GPS. Upon returning from the menu I get a dialog to close or report Maps because it force closed :P

I don't know if this happened before, but most of the time goes into the Deep Sleep CPU mode. The 6% of the time not seen in the chart is in the 998Mhz category. The default governor is ondemand (but I found interactiveX to be snappier).

Using the same app to monitor battery usage, I notice less battery drain in sleep (during the night) and more battery drain in light usage. The charge drain during voice calls is also steeper compared to stock Sense.

Boot Loop

Hi,

I have S-OFF Bravo Stock (250M /system).

CWM Recovery: 5.0.2.0 (last)

* wipe data/factory reset

* Install Beta_0.1.4.zip (no errors)

* reboot

take some time booting (as expected) but before finalize booting (while still in boot animation), it reboots (AlphaRev S-OFF screen) and start again, and again, ...

What I did wrong?

TIA,
[Desire Android Development] zaphodbeeb:
- full reset

- wipe dalvik

- wipe cache

- flash

- reboot

- set up basics (wifi etc)

- reboot

- reboot

You should be in business. This is what I did for 0.1.4
[Desire Android Development] judison:
I did the 2 extra steps of wipe dalvik and cache, but the same:

- full reset (OK)

- wipe dalvik (OK)

- wipe cache (OK)

- flash (OK)

- reboot (ERROR)

- set up basics (wifi etc) (Can't get here)

- reboot

- reboot

It keeps rebooting... I can't do anything

Already tried versions 0.1.4, 0.1.3, 0.1.2 and 0.1.1

All with the same results...

-------------

While writing this... just tried to go back to GingerVillain 3.3

the same results...

I think it's not related to this ROM....

Any Ideas ?
[Desire Android Development] BombaUcigasa:
What about:

- full wipe

- flash ICS

- wipe dalvik

- wipe cache

- boot

- set up basics (wifi etc)

- reboot into recovery

- wipe dalvik

- wipe cache

- boot

?

Your radio rom seems to be old too...

Try to take out the sdcard after flashing ICS, I had some issues with it overheating while flashing too much.
[Desire Android Development] judison:
Don't take my signature into account,

I have:

HBOOT: 6.93.11002 (S-OFF, Bravo Stock)

Raddio: 5.17.05.23 (Last One)

Recovery: CWM Recovery 5.0.2.0 (Last One)

Trying this (wipe dalvik & cache after flash)...

Removed SD,

Waiting 2 minutes before power up (first boot)...

booting it up, without SD... and without USB/logcat (as charging may overheat too)

It worked so far...

get into setup screen

I skipped entering google account, so I can let it "rest" (to cool down)

but I still don't know if it's temperature related, SD Card related, or wipe-cache-and-dalvik-after-flash related... :S

Conversion from cm7r2 Notes

Hi Guys,

Just wanted to let everyone know my experiences in taking the plunge and going ICS fulltime.

1. Converting back to a stock layout was easy. Just downloaded the stock bravo_alphaspl.img from alpharev.nl and flashed with FastbootCommander.

2. Installing the stock ICS 0.1.4 rom was easy :-) Good job as always guys.

3. Flashed 40ad2sdx-a2Recovery. Ran into problems here!

Nothing wrong with the zip.. just a user error.

Found the same issues when I tried DT and mounts zips.

Don't just install/boot/rush to market to get TB and restore!

Seems these layout changes take about 5 minutes after first boot before they've properly activated.. I ended up with all sorts of low storage errors, apks spread over both partitions (internal and sd), etc, etc..

Wait 10mins.. Then go for Titanium Backup, MyBackup, or whatever

Now running happily with the following: 40ad2sdx-a2Recovery
​

4. Installed my library of apps (quite large - about 150)

5. Installed exDialer and Theme based on recommendations here.

6. Installed GoLauncherEx and themes.

7. Made Nandroid backup - just know I'm gunna need it :-)

8. Very happy Duck - Thanks everyone!

Addendum:

I noticed a little skipping when playing back music and doing other things at the same time.. so I've gone into Systune and under misc and set the IO Scheduler to noop 2048 for the SD Card partitions and noop 4 for the others.. from memory noop is better than deadline for solid state devices.. seems to have solve my music problem.
[Desire Android Development] BombaUcigasa:
I always flash the newest ICS, then darktremor a2sd, then menu button wake up. Over 320mb of apps in the sd-ext partition, takes a while to zipalign on first boot but then its fast.
[Desire Android Development] tsiftsism:
Sorry if my questions are so offtopic (maybe not, i don't know) :

A well known issue (as have already mentioned few time in here) is that wallpaper doesn't show up in what you have chosen in the gallery crop procedure. Rom always shows the left side of the picture..

Has anyone found a third party application that lets you have a proper cropped wallpaper?

And one other thing is that in ICS you can't have a lockscreen wallpaper other than the one you have selected as your homescreen's wallpaper.

Likewise my previous question, is there any third party application for that purpose?
[Desire Android Development] sydbarrett55:
@erosco> You are reboot between flash rom and 40ad2sdx-a2Recovery ?

because it should not reboot between.

flash room + flash 40ad2sdx-a2Recovery, and boot.

I never had any problems. It's works perfectly

no need to wait 10 minutes
[Desire Android Development] BartAfterDark:
Sounds to me, that your phone has a faulty motherboard. My Desire kept on restarting too, when it got hot (used a lot of CPU/GPU) They changed the motherboard under warranty and it has been working since then.

Not sure though.
[Desire Android Development] erosco:
Did both at the same time.. maybe I'm just unlucky.. two things make me think this is true however.

1. First boot can take 5-10mins to settle down (this is because the once off scripts are running)

2. 40ad2sdx basically means scripts 00-39 will run first.. so I assume that this script doesn't get executed until a few minutes after the first boot.

Cheers

[Desire Android Development] BombaUcigasa:
1. What happens if you don't install any data to SD patch?

2. What happens when you install this one that works for me: http://www.darktremor.info/files/a2sd/dtapps2sd-2.7.5.3-beta04-signed.zip ?
[Desire Android Development] erosco:
@Bomba

Thanks for your suggestions.. but as I mentioned in my first post I have a installation process that works for me.. hopefully someone may find it useful too.

Not really interested in trying every permutation to see which work and which don't.

[Desire Android Development] zaphodbeeb:
I think it must be a hboot problem. Are you sure you are s-off. Try installing the alpharev hboot image. Download and flash from alpharev site. The only other difference I suspect may be that I am using 4ext to flash as a recovery. Also are you using any sdcard partitions. I did have problems using the DT script but I switched to Amarullz SD EXT and no probs. Following is the process I used to install this set up

- full reset

- wipe dalvik

-wipe cache

- wipe sdext

- flash ICS

- reboot (didint have to wait long about 5 mins)

- basic set up ii.e. wifi, google, dev options, usb debug etc ***dont install apps yet***

- reboot

- flash Amarullz

- reboot (sets up rom apps)

- install apps

- reboot (recreates dalvik on internal memory, and apps)

done.

The only other thing I can suggest is if you are using a partition make sure it is correctly aligned.
[Desire Android Development] virus2013:
Strange bug... The phone don't see anymore any of my sdcard's media file. Music didn't show the files, gallery is the same,... I even downloaded an app to force rescan but no luck. Any ideas? With Root Explorer, files are there and I can even read an mp3 with integrated little player so definitely not a file or sd problem.

Edit: reboot didn't help but wiping cache + dalvik solved my problem ;-)

Hi!

First off all, thanks so much to developpers, for their time and an amazing result!

Just to help, i ve noticed some smalls issues:

-proximity sensor issue

-backlight level could be better

-maps is very unstable and FC with rotation

-gallery is drainning a lot when using alarms (dont know if its one of my apps doing this): name *wakelock* displayed in battery monitor changing for gallery after few seconds. Uses 10% of battery during half an hour! Need to stop process or reboot.

This is my daily rom now, so thanks again!

For those who have problems with flashing, booting, etc , try another recovery, for me CWM was unable to make me booting ics!

The Gallery will sync all your picasa/google+ pics, as well as your picture attachments for the last half year and you can't stop it. Go to the account sync options for the google associated account, and disable picture sync options.

Or, you can let it settle for a few hours/days and keep the phone into the charger or USB.

(Bravo A8181, stock hboot, revolutionary)

- Flashing 0.1.4 over 0.1.3 resulted in an endless bootanimation, had to pull battery.

- Full wipe needed for a clean install of 0.1.4

- 0.1.4 indeed feels faster/smoother

- Battery life is WAAAAAAY better!!! with 0.1.4

- Gallery still buggy with regular FC during or right after startup, but functional

(A2SD installed on a Ext3 partition)

Keeping this ROM for daily use, will load every update and post results Devs!

With the latest version whenever (not always) i have an incoming call, i don't get the name of the caller, only the calling number even though this number is registered to my contacts.

Has anyone noticed that or it only happens to me?
[Desire Android Development] MatDrOiD:
Never happened here.

Swyped from ICS with Transparent XDA App
[Desire Android Development] ssonik:
Is the number identical to the one in your contacts, or is one international format and one local format?
[Desire Android Development] tsiftsism:
The fact is that in every version i used from this thread (since alpha), the phone number's format is other than the one we are using in Greece (they appear like this 699 710 5567, instead of 6997105567 it should appear). But they appear the same way (with spaces) in my contacts too.

I didn't find a way to change it but the truth is that even in that format i wasn't having any problem with incoming calls with previous versions. Only with 0.1.4.

Ps. As i wrote in the 1st post, i don't have the problem in every incoming call. It happens randomly and not everytime with the same contact and phone number.
[Desire Android Development] rjvdhoek:
Installed 0.1.4 today on this system: Desire s-off standard hboot with 8 gb sd, formatted with 1 gb ext3. After reboot I installed Amarillz a2sd. After reboot the system reports 1gb internal memory for apps!. The rom feels very fine and smooth. In speed as fast as cm7 :-). I don't use the camera, so this rom is fine for me for daily use. Thanks!
[Desire Android Development] Draciel882:
I'm starting to have some severe problems. Been using this since the first release. I'm running 0.1.4. If I use any governor other than ondemand or even when using that, my phone will be okay for a few days and then it will have a random restart and then it will pretty much go in to a boot loop. Except when it restarts it will boot all the way in to ICS up until it finishes checking my SD card for errors. Then it will restart again. It will keep doing this until I reflash the entire rom. Is there anything that I could be doing wrong? Like I said I have 0.1.4 flashed with Amarullz ext2sd script flashed as well.

[Desire Android Development] dk_zero-cool:
Desire is from 2010 and since we are one week from 2012 would that not make it two years old? :)

Besides, don't underestimate this phone. People said the same about it running ICS when in fact my phone has more free memory available at all times than with Gingerbread and it runs just as fast and almost as smooth, even with pure graphics support.

A proper HW driver, hwo knows. Not that I would ever run it. Rooted my phone only to get rit of sense.

Oh, that makes sense, it's not Amarillz as he wrote, but Amarullz.

The thing is, I've already installed Darktremor's a2sd, but that still sometimes pops up a message about low storage. Will flashing this over it mess things up? Would it be better to just revert to a nandroid before I installed the other one and start over?

[Desire Android Development] tsiftsism:
The fact that this is an AOSP rom makes it smoother than every GB/Sense 3 rom out there.

I was using for several months coolexe's Sense 3 rom and before that robocik's Sense 2.1+3.0 mixed with a classed 6 sdcard. It definitely feels smoother for me.

Ofcourse you'll have to test it yourself. If you have a high speed sdcard the feeling may be exactly the same in your case.

[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
Hi,

Firstly, merry xmas to all :)

i've jsut flashed the rom (again, went back to an old nandroid!), and now just restoring some titanium apps...

I've flashed the Dark Tremor a2sd script right after flashing the rom, then botted into the rom... starting to restore apps and seems to not use much of the script at all...

Quick system info states that i have 802mb left of my 0.99gb a2sd ext... with only 18mb left on internal... I can and probably will move the dalvik, but not too sure on it! checking if there is a solution first?

does anyone know why this is happening? (btw, I have a lot of apps :) )

I flashed the other a2sd script (which is actually a d2sd script i think) and it just sits there on a boot loop, with just a loop on the logcat stating about audio stuff and volume amount :)

Thanks, Matt :)
[Desire Android Development] shahmohamed:
Bro,

Bootloop might be relate to your hboot size. you are in what hboot?

Reason for a bootloop is never a related to hboot size. If a does not rom fit into hboot (usually /system partition), you will be stuck at splash screen. The bootprocess of the rom can't even start.Whereas a bootloop means it can be started, but not finished.
