Hi Rusty, thanks for your quick response! What kind of scripts do you mean? After ROM installation I activated stock a2sd via terminal, then the data apps are moved and after that the phone does a reboot and while starting Android is "optimizing" apps, after that a2sd works.

I've moved the apps to system with file expert. Mounting RW, moving apk from data/apps to system/apps. Then permissions to rw-r--r-- , mount system RO and reboot... again Android is "optimizing apps" and app is moved, only internal memory doesn't change.

BTW: Tried that Sim-Toolkit here, but both are not working for me...

EDIT! Rusty thanks!!!! I just cleared dalvik and cache and I got 100Mb+ free now :D Sorry if that is a usual step, I've never needed it with my previous ROMs. One can learn everyday!

Now let's try Chrome beta ;)

Missing stk.apk SIM-Toolkit for Dual-SIM Adapter

For everyone still searching for SIM-Toolkit. I've searched xda and more for a working stk.apk for ICS Beta_0.4.1.4...

What I've found:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1408926

both apps showing up, but not working (some say stk.apk is radio dependend?!)

and:

not working

and:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=22556036&postcount=5714

maybe this is a hint, in his log an stk.apk in system/app is listed, so maybe in an old version of this ROM there was a stk.apk ,but version is not mentioned... :s

I will take a look at a few old versions and report back here in this post...

edit1: Found nothing in old ROMs in "system/app", but I've found an stk.apk in "data/app" will try that and report back soon...

edit2: like in every stk.apk you can choose SIM-2 or other things, but it will only show the circle for 1-2min and nothing changes... :mad:

[Desire Android Development] mattman83:
You reflashed the kernel or the rom? You need to flash the separate kernel package for wifi to work.

If it's still not working, that's too bad sorry as it's working just fine for everyone else. Must be something to do with your setup. Welcome to the reality of alpha roms.

I really don't mean to be harsh, but people need to be aware that these roms are ALPHA, UNSUPPORTED and not 100% stable like what you are used to.

If anyone wants to contribute, it would be nice because once most of the newer APIs are available, this rom will be really featured.

I think it would be best guys for those trying this ROM with the unsupported HW hack to make their own thread since this forum is getting messy. Dont ask me. I didnt dl this rom and no plans since Im patiently waiting for the soon supported version.

@mattman83.may i ask if the devs are still working, aiming for the goal they are trying to attain for this rom?thanks man.

I just wanted to ask, I choose the Amarullz script for my ROM, and after installing a number of installations, my A2SD storage is full but I still have a lot of internal storage. I remember that I need to disable A2SD but I can't remember what the script is called and I have searched around but I can't remember the specific name. Any ideas?

Video playback still not working properly with the rom but I found that downloading MX video player from the market solved the problem for me!:D
[Desire Android Development] quark1980:
hey i`m wondering what the battery usage from u all is... im having quite a nice suprise after i updated to 4.1.4 yesterday.

im using the phone for everyday use... with a bit of browsing and 1 or 2 calls...

the batterly life seems to good to be treu....

17hrs 41min 36sec and still 59% remaining......
[Desire Android Development] .martin.:
running 0.4.1.3, have 89% left after 10.5 hours.

That was twitter (WiFi), sms, ect.

I'm quite impressed.
[Desire Android Development] 6chrisp:
First of all, great ROM, thank you!

Question about the notification toolbox: In the changelog it says for v0.4.1:

"statusbar: new toolbox, settings button back to opening settings (swipe to change screens)",

but on my phone (v0.4.1.1) the settings button still slides through quick-settings, volume control, and battery status. Can't find any new options in the evervolv toolbox either?

(I chose stock install for everything, and have a 1GB ext3 partition on a 16GB class 4 card.)

Would it be possible to work-in a battery percentage on the status bar? (not a 3rd party app), because I can't rely on the stock battery indicator as my ancient battery now dies at 20%! So it never even makes it to the low battery warnings!

[Desire Android Development] tsiftsism:
Sandvold, sorry for my question but i am abroad and my data plan is limited while on roaming, so i can't read all new posts.

I can't find in app drawer the application called 'SIM Toolkit' and i saw by searching with Root Explorer that the stk.apk isn't inside /system/app, but in /data/app.

Do i have to do anything manual in order to enable it?
[Desire Android Development] an430:
Your desire's battery seem running great! I just want to know how long did your battery being in your device. It's awesome that 10.5 hrs and 89% remain
[Desire Android Development] xelra:
Yeah, battery life on 0.4.1.4 is amazing. Yesterday my Desire lasted for over 20 hours, with 2 hours reading usage, 1 hour talk and 4 hours of gps. That's just great.

FYI, my battery is at around 1170 mAh +- 11%.

It's still my first one.
[Desire Android Development] BartAfterDark:
Download Battery Calibrator for the Nexus One, it works flawlessly on the Desire :) You can use the "learn" feature or set the Battery Age manually, mine is set to 84 for one of my old batteries, that way it doesn't jump from 20 % to 0 % instantly :)
[Desire Android Development] .martin.:
I'm still using the original battery I got with the phone, so it would be about 17 months.
[Desire Android Development] an430:
anyone downloading apps from maket are facing the FC issue?
[Desire Android Development] 3l_P3sc4d0r:
Hi Guys

I also want to give you a short review of the Sandvold ICS Rom, I was testing the BETA 0.4.1.4 now for 2 days.

First of all I really want to thank all the developers who made this rom possible, really impressive work you have done here.

The ROM is quite fast, faster than I expected. The only big bugs which were annoying me were the camera and video playback bugs. In camera mode you can only see artifacts, same for me in video playback over the youtube app. Also a weird thing was the "speed" of the browser. In my opinion the browsing is much slower than in Gingerbread (I tested several browsers), and the site loading also laggs from time to time.

But which thing also greatly worked was the inbuilt A2SD, it worked really good, had about 110MB free space after installing about 50 Apps.

So after all it's quite a good rom but because of the camera and video probs and the slow browsing it's not yet a daily rom for me.

BTW: A big noob question from my side: With "full wipe" you mean "wipe data/factory reset" in recovery or don't you?
[Desire Android Development] an430:
First of all, thx for your sharing. I also experience the speed of the browser. In fact, the speed has been slowed down in 0.4.0RC1. A little bit slow and lag in loading page. However, in 0.3.10 the speed is really good and smooth
[Desire Android Development] .martin.:
Camera and video problems have been reported about a billion times by now :p

Browser speed I think was a HWA issue (correct me if I'm wrong)

And yes, the "wipe data/factory reset" will wipe everything
[Desire Android Development] TomLeeDesire:
full wipe = "wipe data/factory reset" + "wipe cache" + "advanced|wipe dalvik cache"

=> that will erase your app and settings

"wipe cache" + "advanced|wipe dalvik cache" = something you can do anytime, dalvik will be rebuilt booting (optimizing applications... xx/yy)
[Desire Android Development] an430:
My phone is out of service now!

When I notice that it cannot download app from market, I made full wipe and reinstall the rom. It bootlooping.........................
[Desire Android Development] williamj1:
Did you have the screen brightness way down and all network coms off?

Also, where are you reading that statistic from?

If I look under the testing developer information (dial *#*#4636#*#*) mine lists my battery voltage as 3806mV?
[Desire Android Development] rustykwak:
Just pull the battery boot into recovery using the volume down button & power button in recovery do a full wipe & restore your last back up! you may wont to back up your sd on your pc & increase your ext to at least 1gb then start over again!
[Desire Android Development] an430:
One more question

If I want the softkeys, any ideas that I can make it without reinstalling the rom?
[Desire Android Development] tikkalamt:

I don want to use the real key on desire, and the soft keys not cost many size in the screen. Beside the app - Button saver, the soft keys is much better. ^^

[Desire Android Development] Scirwode:
Anyone has any idea on this?

[Desire Android Development] williamj1:
I wouldn't have thought doing multiple installations would work with this. Amarullz is quite different from other A2SD scripts, infact I'm not even sure you could call it this. Because I'm sure you are aware, it puts the app itself, the app data and app cache on your external SD partition. This means you ultimately end up with loads of internal storage, because if you have a 1GB external partition, you end up with 1GB internal memory effectively.

What this means is if you have stuff already in your external partition, its going to get confusing and I would have thought things just wouldn't work. If it was me, I would do a full wipe - data, cache, davlik and anything else. If you need to save data, you can always back it up with Titanium or my preference - MyBackup Root. Then do a clean install of the ROM, selecting Amarullz on boot. You can then recover any apps / data onto your properly set up 1GB of internal memory.

Alternatively ... like you suggest - have you tried the following commands. I'm not sure if these work with Amarullz but they are standard A2SD commands.
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
As said, you do get used to them very quickly...

Someone asked for them as hard keys are failing on a now 2 year old device...

It also shows the 'menu' button on legacy apps, which you may not know are there...

Plus it is an ics feature... may as well have it being used...

Anyone got Sygic/Aura working on Sandavolt rom ? Getting FC after initialization screen.

Could you pls share:

rom settings: ver, agps, a2ds etc.

Sygic/Aura version.

trial or full ?
[Desire Android Development] Scirwode:
Maybe I should have added/clarified, this is coming from a very clean install. I wiped data/cache/dalvik, installed 0.4.1.4 and only added Nova and Amarullz. I even added a new MicroSD Card (Class 6, got it for a discount on a website) and formatted it to 2GB EXT4.

What I meant by multiple installations is the apps I've recovered from Titanium (which I have no issue with). My problem is that with Amarullz, my internal is reporting at least 1.5GB available but my SD Card A2SD was reporting only 150MB and after restoring up to 50 applications, it becomes full, even though I still have quite a lot of internal memory hence my question.

Though now that I think about it, maybe I should clarified the question better. Sorry, my apologies!

Scirwode
[Desire Android Development] tikkalamt:
After I realized it also has that menu button (those 3 dots, did I get it right?), I only use the physical menu button on homescreen to quickly select launcher/app/system settings. Is it on purpose or an ICS feature or is it possible to have the on-screen menu button also on the homescreen?
[Desire Android Development] slow23:
Hi,

just updated to 0.4.1.4 and everything running perfectly well (using V6 supercharger instead of swap for memory issues).

Just one thing to ask: Has anyone got a working tun.ko for the new kernel?

On 0.3.x everything was fine, but it doesn't work with 0.4.1.4, at least for me.

Hboot: stock (s-off)

Install:custom

Launcher: nova

A2sd: stock (installed via terminal including dalvik)

The module is present in /system/lib/modules but it can't be loaded via modprobe / insmod.
[Desire Android Development] LaidbackNikez:
Well as it is now it's causing more problem than actually working. For now my advice is to not use it as it causes major issues with our ROM. Once I get a new phone I'll get it up and running again... (I can also do alot of ... )
[Desire Android Development] williamj1:
Oh ok, sorry. So basically, its showing more internal memory than is actually available, or its listing less than there is or something. I'm not sure how I would solve that one. Is the script definitely installed?
[Desire Android Development] mattyyey:
Some helpful hints I missed till now

Ok so i do generally search a topic for solutions but last night i decided to read the WHOLE thread. I'm really glad I did. :rolleyes: heres why:

it has been bugging me that my phone has been turning off at 8% tyvm for that.

I've tried it, was little nervous, but it all went fine and while it did say it was upgrading during boot, I watched the logcat, it was all fine... and now it seems to run just fine, and not had a reboot since this morning! I have tried it under heavy useage, and before I would have had 2 or 3 (or more!) reboots by now.... so tyvm.

I choose option 6 and speed 2 and it all is GREAT.

No redraws under heavy usage! :eek: fantasic!

I think I have thanked each post, but if not THANK YOU, or just say and I'll find em again and click the thanks button.... I suggest to anyone having reboot problems (not the freezes from what I understand), or wants the launcher not to redraw, THEN USE THESE. Also go back and thank the posts.... :cool:

props to all! and ty for making my ICS rom better! and thanks to the Evervolv team as always for making such a great ICS rom. :D
