ROM Manager is crap (especially for partitioning). Please partition again using GParted (noob guide tells you how). Won't solve the black-screen-issues (kernel might do, as mentionend above), but now the partitions are perfectly aligned which improves speed.

[Desire Android Development] drbrains:
I never ever did this before... how ever since reading this, I tried it to see if I would notice any difference. Strange thing: ever since bluetooth was fixed (0.3.6??) it never works properly for me. Now, it works. Go figure!! (corrupt partition??). I came back to the CM7r2 hboot from "alpharev stock"

BTW: this is not even mentioned on the alpharev site.

The drivers are not the issue - they have that - the problem is getting it all working in a 2.6 kernel! Other phones getting ICS do not help with that.

[Desire Android Development] weirdsciencex:
I don't know if it essential to flash the downgrade.img

I just know myself and other people have experienced the situation where when you try to flash back to stock hboot (if coming from cm7r2) it will fail unless you flash the downgrade.img first.
[Desire Android Development] Flying Scotsman:
I know this is a stupid question but my curiosty is killing me: what is the difference between the launchers and which is the best one to use?
[Desire Android Development] Anon87:
Not much just slight differences. Install stock launcher and download the others from the market if u wanna try them out.

This thread isn't really for discussion on launchers.

Bravo | Sandvold ICS | Stock hboot/a2sd
[Desire Android Development] mhulsegge:
As far as I know (and I've also experienced it :) ), the downgrader is at least required when you want to revert fully to stock. the RUU's can't change the Hboot, hence the need for the downgrader. I myself have also reverted back to stock hboot from cm7r2, without downgrader, and have had no issues whatsoever.
[Desire Android Development] MatDrOiD:
This depends on personal preferences (do not know the differences between launchers, because after some testing with Nova (was not bad), I switched to LauncherPro). So I recommend that you test yourself. But if you want an opinion, I would say you should start with Nova or Apex. Read good things about these two.

Are people getting black deaths anymore or is it gone? I had switched from ICS to GB just cos I started getting black deaths, but some people mentioned in this thread that the issue has gone away by itself?
[Desire Android Development] Fritte_SWE:
I didn't have one in ages but today I got one. They are really rare for me at least.
[Desire Android Development] .martin.:
I didn't get them originally, but have had a few over the past week.

they all (from memory) were when the phone was charging, so not much of a problem, as I just pull the battery and booted again in the morning.
[Desire Android Development] laserlion:
Yeah, the frequency seem to differ between the users here. If you want to get rid of them, there's instructions and links a few pages back on how to use another kernel from the MIUI ICS project that seemingly fixes the issue..
[Desire Android Development] Fritte_SWE:
Yeah I know, but I can live with it since the phone is do damn stable when putting it under load and usage. Rather have it die when not using it then while I''m using it. =)

Its so damn rare I get a black death anyway so I'll just wait for the next release =)
[Desire Android Development] maxxie85:
I haven't had a black death since I switched to the NMK kernel from miui.

use revolutionary to s-off. you'll get loads of good stuff in recovery with that, including repartition sd card etc.

http://revolutionary.io/
[Desire Android Development] geenius:
personally i prefer 4EXT touch recovery, includes everything standard in CWM (i think) but also additional stuff such as usb brick fixes and more technical stuff.

trying out all the ICS ROMs recently and i think this seems the most usable/smoothest. also 1.48gb of internal storage...nice :)

quick question though, going through developer setting i cannot seem to change the CPU speeds, any reason?
[Desire Android Development] magikmichael:
Yeah me too! I think the devs are taking the time to release a good functional rom. Keep up the good work guys. Man I wish I had the knowledge to contribute on this Rom.
[Desire Android Development] Andreas75k:
Will downloads of apps bigger than 5MB work with this setup. What I mean is, have you symlinked cache somewhere else in this build or do I need to do that myself?
[Desire Android Development] mattman83:
Camera will probably be one of the very last things to happen. Alot of people don't use it, and it's also one of the harder things to fix. Personally i don't care as i think the camera on desire is terrible anyway :)

Link for the kernel downloads bad zip file..
[Desire Android Development] oruchreis:
Is this hibrid of 2.3 and 4.0? Or is every file of this original 4.0? I mean when a component doesn't work, what do you do? do you put old 2.3 component or do you edit the source code of the ICS and compile it? This is important because if it is hibrid/mix of GB and ICS, it has no difference than ICS themed Gingerbread.

Hi amarullz

With this version, is it mandatory to flash the "tristan202" kernel, as stated in OP for the Stock version ?

Thank you for your support, and thank you to all devs working on this amazing ROM.
[Desire Android Development] mattman83:
Flash the kernel like it says on the first page, and like we say on nearly every page of this thread when someone makes this comment.

[Desire Android Development] vobo70:
I flashed 0.3.6 (had 0.3.5 hw before)

When I go to "settings" > "sync settings"

my contact and gmail failed to sync.

On other roms was OK.

Anyway works very fast as not final version.

My all contacts are stored in google.

What can I do to get sync to work?

(without contact my phone is useless)

[Desire Android Development] Phantom Pt. II:
Awesome work, keep it going! I'll start trying this out when the camera possibly works!
[Desire Android Development] K900:
This is technically ICS source with several patches, but proprietary libraries used are from Gingerbread, simply because they're all we have. However that doesn't change anything on the Android side of things, so all ICS features are there.
[Desire Android Development] K900:
Also I've been working on merging the changes devs made here with CM9 tree, but it's not anywhere near what's achieved here yet. My goal for the long term is to merge all the fixes from here into the vendor tree so that you can just repo sync && brunch bravo to get a working build without needing to flash kernels and whatnot, but for starters I want to push the first builds out.

I just want to report a problem with gps stability during navigation. The first fix is really fast but my position is lost during the way. It's like the gps is deactivated and I have to restart the app to reactivate it.

I know it's an alpha build, it's just to report the information.

[Desire Android Development] djsynth:
feels like the development on this rom has significantly slowed down, due to there being less releases past 2-3 weeks... does anybody know maybe there's a reason ?

because ive been following the development of this rom from day 1 and am waiting for a more stable release e.g no more black deaths n reboots....

thanks
[Desire Android Development] laserlion:
This kernel is stable under load aswell. No 'regular' reboot or freezes under heavy load at all. Not sure if it differs on any other aspect, though ;)
[Desire Android Development] laserlion:
Then you'd know Sandvold is in a remote place without much connection to the web and Nikez broke his phone. I'm sure development is still happening, the update frequency is just slowed down. ...and it's only been a week since last update. Have some patience ;)
[Desire Android Development] mattman83:
Drewis isn't releasing as much either TBH. The real reason is that as easy stuff was being fixed they would push an update every of days. The "easy" fixes are all done now though, so they are onto the harder fixes which simply take more time and more testing.

M.
[Desire Android Development] Sandvold:
I've said it before, our releases will probably follow the n1 schedule more closley now. So you should expect fewer releases. I've had unbelivable bad net for 1 week, but finaly it seems I'm on something that might be stable.

I've been trying to figure out what's been causeing the black screens. Nothing is conclusive but here's my "pinpointing":

*Happens more with a2sd installed (stock a2sd is worst for me)

*Usually happens while charging.

*High load or rotation doesn't seem to be related.

*Seems like the stock kernel is the worst

Anyone experienced the same?
[Desire Android Development] laserlion:
I see! I'm glad they reached such a stable state before, then :)
[Desire Android Development] laserlion:
I haven't tried multiple a2sd, but yeah, they're not as obvious as the good ol' reboots; both of mine happened while charging, so it doesn't seem 'load-dependent'...
[Desire Android Development] d2kx:
I had a black screen screen and couldn't turn the display on when I launched a big game for the first time and I would download 250 MB of game files. After the download completed and installed (aka 15 minutes or so later) it worked again. Stock kernel, stock a2sd.
[Desire Android Development] drbrains:
Using the latest 0.4.2.1 (but had this problem on all versions so far)

I use "Flight-mode" a lot. After switching Flight-mode OFF everything (Wifi, normal phone network, 3g) restores to normal except Bluetooth. After switching to flightmode the only way so far I have found to get bluetooth back is wipe cache and dalvic cache, reboot. Remove battery and restart the phone. Then it works again.

Should I be able to make a logcat to see whats going on, and why it doesnt restore bluetooth?? Until now I did use it that much, but my new car-radio has bluetooth for handsfree and music streaming so I will start using it a lot.

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] Flying Scotsman:
If anyone's interested: I'm running the stock launcher with A2SDX script installed. Only ever 'black screens' for me when I listen to recorded radio through "TuneIn Radio". There's around 10-15 minutes I have to wait, and it black screens. No other app (to my knowledge) does that, so maybe something to do with the script or SD card (retrieving a lot of info it seems) causes it to become unresponsive.
[Desire Android Development] mattman83:
Quoting from info I got on another forum -

Everyone who's installed the MIUI-Au kernel has come back saying it's resolved the BD issue. A couple had found specific triggers for it, and with the new kernel it's all playing nicely.

[Desire Android Development] MatDrOiD:
Can confirm that. Testing the NMR-kernel from MIUI-AU.com at the moment, seems as if it's working better than tiamat's kernel, which also worked better for me than the stock kernel.

Black Death

I would just like to ask if everyone has had the black death. I'm not trying to reiterate the issue, I'm just asking because I have been using the latest version of ROM for more than a week now and I never had one. I've installed using the typical option on CMr2 HBOOT.
[Desire Android Development] fragargon:
I've gotten a BD 3 days ago. Same context - charger plugged after a whole night charging - no more réaction even with adb to get logcat. I had to reboot. This happens only once since running from a scratch reinstal. Using amarullz script. Except this rom running fine and rocks.
[Desire Android Development] EasySR:
Also tried all 3 kernels and came to the same result.
[Desire Android Development] .martin.:
it seems to be quite random. some people had them from day one, some people haven't.

personally, the first week (or so) was good, but the last couple of days I have had a few.
[Desire Android Development] rustykwak:
I've only used tiamats & not had any BD's since just a couple of random reboots when switching between aps!
[Desire Android Development] Sandvold:
Gonna make a build (or release the one i've been working on if it seems to be stable still) with the following changes:

Revert a2sd script

New (other) version of amarullz

Choosable kernel

Trying to get everything to work with the new framework that N1 got

The error might also be that I had to use parts from the n1 build to get our ROM to work like it does atm.

99% sure the BSOD will stop once we get a "fresh" build
[Desire Android Development] vasili_defy:

Maybe I was lucky, but I didn't have a problem with 0.4.2 during the week that I used it, stock HBOOT. I am currently back on a GB ROM because I had a few issues with the calendar freezing sometimes and I use it quite a lot, but that happens to my ICS tablet as well. I was quite happy with it otherwise.

I've only just become eligible to post on here but I've been following the progress for a while and I wanted to say, now that I have the chance, that I'm looking forward to giving this ROM another go in the future.
[Desire Android Development] drbrains:

Maybe another Radio version will fix it. I dont know exactly what the Radio updates impact on but I solved a WLAN problem by updating Radio to the latest. My WLAN was loosing connection all the time(with this ROM only) and after Radio update it worked fine.

Might be worth a try since you did a full Wipe and have problems.

See this thread for Radios:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=687464

Thanks!! That worked wonders. Switching Flightmode ON/OFF, rebooting etc. works now without any problem. Never thought about the lastest radio update since everything worked on GB.

[Edit: too soon. After a complete power-off, the same problem returns]
[Desire Android Development] sandi052:
I can say the reboot issue is gone... I think I had this issue last time on releases before 0.4.1.5.

The BD(bsod) issue is rare on my devise... I had it for two times in the last 3 weeks... both time it was in a period of ten minutes after a phone call, while my device was idle, not on charging or on high load/use of sd card...

I upgraded from 0.4.1.5 to 0.4.2.1 wiped cache and dalvik....
[Desire Android Development] Fritte_SWE:
If you have the time and energy it might be worth testing different versions. I read that some people use different versions of radios since not just the new one fix their problems.

Maybe try searching for you're problem in Radio threads and see if someone bumped into the same problem. I think Bluetooth is very rare to use in other ways then a headset so there might be problems a lot of people have without knowing it.
[Desire Android Development] drbrains:
I did google already on this problem. Most replies were dismissing it as a hardware problem. I google long enough to have seen this on different brands of phones. Very very unlikely that all these issues are hardware related.

If it works, it really works. Handsfree with a nokia headset (only one I tested but assume other work). Streaming to my laptop. Was recognized directly by Windows 7 including remote control the phones music player. Transfer files between laptop and phone. I really think this is "just" software related.

After a wipe cache and dalvik cache it is most likely to start working again. This is not 100% either but it must be something in (re)initializing the hardware I guess. After flashing the radio it worked the first time.

Google is my friend so I should find it one day :D

Based on my logcat's sofar:

It only works if I get this:

I have had this ROM a couple of days now and its been working great, very impressed - just had my first BSOD though.

I was in the cinema for couple of hours and after I left the phone had turned off and wouldn't switch on. Battery pull was the only way to restart.

Couple of additions which would be nice:

1. Battery icon which shows % left as a number.

2. Long press on back hardware button to force close apps (had this in MIUI which I liked).

3. Long press home button turn on the flash to act as a torch.

1 - you can do this in the theme kitchen now. ICS process isn't as clear but just pick your battery style and upload framwork-res.apk and systemui.apk.

Try the UOT KITCHEN (Google it)

There are a range of battery icons there, just upload the two files at the end from the Rom zip file and it does the rest then just flash the downloaded file.
