New build soon, been in the middle of nowhere in India without internet, so that's why I havn't had possibility to respond to posts
[Desire Android Development] tabon:
does the new build will have camera preview working? :D

take ur time..ur rom is the best and we know it!
[Desire Android Development] Sandvold:
Takes more time then expected internet is really slow, but 99% sure it'll be done today
[Desire Android Development] mattman83:
Preview is not yet fixed in latest release for N1 - so unlikely it'll be fixed here. Check the N1 thread for expected fixes.

i see, thank you matt
[Desire Android Development] Mokshu:
I've been using Tiamat's ICS 022112 kernel for one day on 0.4.1.5 beta and no major problem. I can't really say there is significant changes between stock and tiamat's kernel, as from my understanding it was mainly including fixes that drewis had done for the "stock" kernel.

No major downside either if you choose to flash it.

I'll keep you posted if I spot anything.
[Desire Android Development] abellimz:
Take your time man, u should be enjoying the trip.
[Desire Android Development] LaidbackNikez:
I might be able to release a new update today with the new kernel aswell as a fix for cm7r2/stock identification-problem. It all depends on how much time I have.. Since it takes ages to test atm.

[Desire Android Development] Fritte_SWE:
I have a major problem with this ROM and wonders if anyone knows how to fix it.

My WLAN connection stops working after a few minutes usage. It shows as active and connected but the prone cant send or receive data so everything times out.

Mobile internet works splendid, its just the WLAN. I have made several wipes and confirmed its not the hardware since other ROMs work fine.

Anyone knows what may be causing this and how to fix it? I have unlimited mobile internet but its slower then WLAN so kinda annoying >.<
[Desire Android Development] guy_smiley:
This ROM is terrible! It won't do the dishes, the ironing or make me a sandwich! :rollseyes:

What hboot, a2sd, options in installer, launcher etc as mentioned previously if you require help.

Several wipes... were any full wipes?
[Desire Android Development] Fritte_SWE:
All the wipes I make are full wipes. Everything but the FAT32 partition. I have nandroid backups and Titanium backups to go back to after all the fullwipes and testing to exclude anything i make as the cause.

Edit: I cant even ping an IP adress from the terminal so its not a DNS issue i assume.

I havent understood the Radio concept, what its for so dont have a radio zip installed if that might be relevant.

You will see my setup in the signature but since youre on the phone ill post it here:

Hboot/S-OFF: Bravo CM7r2/AlphaRev

Recovery: 4EXT Recovery

ROM: Sandvold ICS Beta_0.4.1.5 with Apex Launcher & Amarullz AD2SDX

Device: HTC Desire

SD Card: Samsung Class10 32GB / 2GB EXT4 & 30GB FAT32
[Desire Android Development] SoWhy:
I had problems with system files + apps but normal apps were restored quite nicely. Consider using MyBackup Root if TB does not work on some apps for you.
[Desire Android Development] andQlimax:
that happen with amarullz script...in my opinion stock app2sd is better

No Sense no fun :(

For HTC, Sense is 1/2 of Android. For my opinion Android without Sense is unusable.
[Desire Android Development] Jaykay1976:
For you maybe but this being a thread for a AOSP ROM that's a rather foolish comment to make.
[Desire Android Development] sintaku:
Been reading the thread, was wondering if the rom was stable enough for daily usage.

I don't really use it for any games/videos.

Just really music (spotify), tapatalk, whatsapp, viber, texting and making phone calls and some light browsing.

Would I need to have a swap for my requirements?

I'm thinking of flashing the latest beta with Tiamats latest ICS kernel.

Only thing I miss about sense is the T9 Dailer (which you can download from the market Go Contacts, exDailer or One Dailer). I currently use MildWild CM-3.1.
[Desire Android Development] MatDrOiD:
Wanted to push your postcount? Or why in hell did you post this, reffering to the thread, completely senseless and unhelpful comment?
[Desire Android Development] ricako:
Really? Think your in the wrong thread then
[Desire Android Development] mattman83:
ICS or Sense, take your pick, because the desire won't be able to handle both.

[Desire Android Development] Charles Collins:
Have been running 3:10 and Apex Launcher for the last couple of days with stock a2sd. Running smoothly, fast and without a hitch.

Had tried using Go Launcher which I like a lot but phone was slow and lagged quite a bit.
[Desire Android Development] aliensub:
The "only" two issues I have run into is a couple of unmotivated reboots (seems to happen at processor peaks), and then the keyboard seems to crash pretty often when texting, which means I have to exit the current message and get back into it. It seems to mostly being triggered by Danish letters (æøå)

But since everything else is so much better than running Gingerbread, I'm a happy user. Great work Sandvold!
[Desire Android Development] dkcep:
yes, the keyboard crashing is pretty irritating :) but you can just use SwiftKey X, until it is fixed.

i have been using it as daily rom since 0.3.9. :)
[Desire Android Development] The3File:
Glad i'm not the only one i see.
[Desire Android Development] fragargon:
hi,

running as daily driver, phone call, texting, browsing, xda, photo (even it s blind shooting :D) and since flash latest tiamt kernel running smoothest (current rc4.0.1)
[Desire Android Development] thejust:
I tried running latest tiamat kernel but would only get blank screen after first boot screen, could it be related to supercharger?

Cm7r2

Apex

Stock a2sd
[Desire Android Development] bortak:
Sense, Touchwiz, any manufacturer additions are useless pieces of crap the ruin android. All they give is worse performance and battery life, in exchange for a crappy UI nobody would really care about if it never existed in the first place. I haven't used a sense ROM in over a year probably.
[Desire Android Development] sintaku:
I've flashed it. I'm pretty happy actually. Had major issues with Amarullz, so flashed again with stock a2sd. And its pretty fast.

Also what's the best launcher? From my searches I found Apex to have large icons in the dock. Are the other launchers any good?
[Desire Android Development] fragargon:
no i dont think so, I m also running supercharged use thisbravo-tiamat-ics-022112.zip

hope this help ;)

It looks like 4.* doesn't support battery history anymore? At least Battery Left says so.
[Desire Android Development] tlexul:
As it was suggested a few times before, the use of "adb logcat" might actually point people in the right direction.
[Desire Android Development] sintaku:
Running it for the last 9 hours with the tiamat kernel. It's pretty darn stable. Only thing I noticed but it's not this ROM, but tiamats kernel doesn't seem to have a 200 range frequency for the CPU.
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
I think it moved in honeycomb... if you go to settings and battery it is there, but not within an app...

In fact you may be right, Cos spare parts doesn't show the 'proper' battery history either...
[Desire Android Development] b0ng0:
First time user of ICS here and so far - awesome! Just a few (probably) basic questions:

1. What are the differences between the different a2sd's in the custom install? (I just chose stock)

2. Are there any examples of what the different launchers in custom install look/behave like?

Many thanks to the devs, I think I can keep my Desire a little longer now :cool:
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
Not 100% sure on the a2sd.

The stock a2sd is what I use which is actually a2sd. There is also (I believe) an data2sd and dark tremor a2sd (search xda)

Stock launcher is the stock launcher with ics... nova, apex and trebuchet all have threads on xda... they just have extra settings and options for them...
[Desire Android Development] dombayo:
A2SD can get complex so it's hard to know exactly the changes unless you read the init.d file. I know the stock one moves the whole folder data/app to sd-ext mount on your sd card. If you select yes for dalvick it will also put all the data/data on the sd-ext partition also.

Amarulz is slightly different - you can read about it here.

There are some assumptions you can make like if you know you have a slow sd-card then you can assume that if you move dalvick to sd-card you will probably notice a speed difference.

Another one is if you have a custom h-boot and a small cache partition you may have some market issues because market uses that to temporarily store downloads before it installs, although I think most A2SD scripts these days take that into account.

The rest is trial and error. Try it and see what works best for you. :)

To head you in the right direction for your second question, I recommend choosing the stock launcher for starters if you don't know what to choose and then installing the others once your phone is installed by downloading the free apk's from the devs posts or websites. I saved you a quick google search.

Apex Launcher

Nova Launcher

Trebuchet Launcher

NOTE: obviously installing these by simply downloading and clicking the .apk will install it in your DATA partition. It's fine for testing the launcher but I know that with Apex that will mean you can't drag widgets onto your desktop in the "ICS" way. There might be glitches with the other two also, not sure. But if you MOVE (not copy) the installed apk from data/app/launchername.apk to your /system/app folder and change the permissions to match the rest of the system apk's if necessary, then reboot... it will work as usual. If you have any problems just wipe dalvick and all will be well.

UPDATE: mattmanwrx beat me, sorry for double post.
[Desire Android Development] :
i am on stock a2sd, i have installed a2sd (without moving dalvik cache) via terminal, but now after a couple apps it says insufficient storage available.

after Googling i suspect my ext3/4 (i forgot which) partition may be corrupted.

can i do a2sd formatext to fix?
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
I have found that wiping dalvik cache may help.. either in terminal

a2sd cleancache

or from recovery...
[Desire Android Development] Scirwode:
I've found a bug that is a bit strange. Basically, everytime I restart my phone, my keyboard language and region in Date & Time is reset. I set my language to English (UK) and region to +8 Kuala Lumpur and it's reset to English (US) and region 0 GMT.

Anyone else experience this issue?

I am posting a video of this rom highlighting all the features.please wait for an hour!
[Desire Android Development] maxxie85:
does anyone knows a solution to this problem.

BTW, i still have multitouch issues. When trying out games like Worms or GTA 3. Both need multitouch it isn't working in games either.
[Desire Android Development] Fritte_SWE:
1. Are you sure you have a EXT4 partition and not for example EXT2 or EXT3?

2. Is the size of the EXT4 partition greater then 512MB?

3. Is you're SD-card partitioned with a EXT4 partition first and FAT32 second?

4. Is you're SD-card a class 4 or greater?

If you live up to these criteria it works flawless for me. In fact it works great and is fast!

Ok, just wanna let everyone know the WLAN problem seems to have been solved!

I flashed the latest RADIO and the WLAN seem to work great so far (1 hour of Youtube streaming so far uninterrupted)! :D

I'm gonna put it under more heavy load later just to make sure.

I went from Radio version 32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27 to 32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.23
[Desire Android Development] .martin.:

[Desire Android Development] 6chrisp:
Enjoying using this as my daily, but a couple of problems:

> Typing lags, and quite badly sometimes.

> I regularly have problems installing new apps from Market - it will either say "Insufficient storage" (when I have ~30MB free) or "Package file invalid".

Has anyone got any ideas on either of these?

I'm using stock everything with the addition of the aGPS patch, and have a 16GB class 4 SD card with 1GB ext3 partition.

If i'm not mistaken 0.3.10 with HWA Hack.
[Desire Android Development] Lothaen:
I had issues with 0.3.10 so running 0.3.9 but I think its cause I didn't do a full wipe.

you know what would be nice if we could have an 0.3.11 with all the later fixes apart from full HWA?

I believe there are some nice features of the notif bar being swipable rather than pressing the settings button for example which would be nice to have in 0.3.x builds getting stablity/camera preview/latest fixes/tweaks etc.

wonder if that is possible until we get a full HWA with camera preview a lot of people won't shift I imagine
[Desire Android Development] SoWhy:
I think the best thing to have would be to have some extra files that allow to change those things by flashing them afterwards. For example, I'd also like an option to disable trackball-wake but I wouldn't want to downgrade for it.

As for camera, I'm no dev but maybe the hack can be applied to 0.4.x as well?
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
---------------------------------------------

Maybe ask drewis (I think) if he can compile an old kernel without full HWA so you can have the camera preview back... Although I dont know if the HWA Hack was included in the kernel or a lib on the rom itself (if the latter it may have been taken out when full HWA was included)!
[Desire Android Development] frikakwa:
Branch 4.* = HWA

Branch 3.* = HW Hack

Think about the difference! :rolleyes:
[Desire Android Development] troly:
Just need more time, the camera will be repaired.:confused::confused:
[Desire Android Development] SoWhy:
In reply to above: Yes, I know I can manually circumvent trackball to wake but what I said was that it would be nice to have an option in the installer (like there is for aGPS patch, launcher and a2sd for example).

Btw, which is the last release that did not have trackball-wake? I don't feel like trying all of them to find out ;)

As for camera hack, I know 0.4.x is HWA but what I meant is that maybe those parts could be mixed into it. As I said, I'm not a dev but to me as a layman it sounds like a plausible idea. But then again, I'm probably wrong.
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
It looks like the last release without trackpad wake is 0.3 according to the changelog on sandvold.as

Regarding the camera, rapmv78 made all the camera hack libs work, including the preview, then the HWA stopped this, maybe rapmv78 will need to look at them again, or evervolv will need to make the hack again!
[Desire Android Development] Lothaen:
rapmv78 already commented on it - and suggested it needed kernel treatment to get the camera hack working again
[Desire Android Development] maxxie85:
1.Yes I am sure I have EXT4

2.It is , 1GB

[Desire Android Development] Fritte_SWE:
Weird, works fine for me though(I dont have a swap partition though). If you havent tryed it maybe a full wipe before installation.

I dont know what Hboot you have but i have CM7r2 if that matters.
[Desire Android Development] maxxie85:
Yeah that is whats the strangest.

I did a full whipe to trie out amarulez script.

So I was full clean when I went to 0.4.1.5.

I have Stock Hboot.

I reverted know back to stock a2sd and activated true terminal.

Another problem that I had with the amarulez script, but it was a problem that occourd also on gingerbread using a a2sdx script that in PowerAMP, All the music folders are dubbel.

so lets say the folder MP3 appeard twies onder

/mp3/ and d/mp3/, very anoing.
[Desire Android Development] Filo2Th:
I would like to move all of my apps into my SD card inside ext4 partition. But i have got some problem with that, only some part of app will move into my ext partition and maybe hlaf of them stay in internal memory of desire.

I had one time set this thing set properly, i even saw in settings then I have got 1GB free space for install app (also in titanuium back up i could saw how much of ext4 partition space left) but now i see in settings> apps only few MB of free space ( i flashed this new ROM). How could i make this to work fine? Even maybe i moved on the last ROM dalvik cache into my partition.
[Desire Android Development] BombaUcigasa:
I dunno, maybe read the first post:

To activate the built in a2sd:

open terminal and run these commands:

a2sd install

To move dalvik cache do:

[Desire Android Development] fragargon:
hi,

I read in the thread someone mention that since latest tiamat kernel flashed (or latest sanvold rc rom) cpu freq 245mhz was not anymore available.

this is not a bug but just an error or rather a will... i guess.

the freq is double written in the following file

=>/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_avaliable_frequencies

128000 128000 384000 422400 460800 499200 537600 576000 614400 652800 691200 729600 768000 806400 844800 883200 921600 960000 998400 1036800 1075200 1113600 1152000 1190400 1228800 1267200

well this is annoying but not upsettin' (choose 384mhz) as i just wonder if this a dev's will coz /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq is set to 384mhz

FYI

I think that all versions without Aroma Installer were only for stock hboot. Aroma Installer is used since v.0.4.x
[Desire Android Development] mattman83:
It really doesn't matter that much. CPU is only on low freq's if you are staring at a blank screen. If you're doing something it scales up, if the screen is off then the apps CPU completely turns off.

I think people get way caught up in freq stepping/governers etc.

M.
[Desire Android Development] pilgrim011:
CPU never completely turns off, except when the phone is turned off. Default setting on most ROMs is 245 MHz with screen off.
[Desire Android Development] fragargon:
indeed... and i ve made a lil mistake

=> /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq is set to 384mhz

this is not right... 245mhz is correct :p
