I can only advise you to try it for yourself.

I was running older radio on 0.3 and batterylife was better. Now I'm running latest and it seems good. On older version my signal bar was lower but I had better battery life. I haven't tried older version on few of the latest rom versions so I can't actually compare.

But radio and batterylife depend on various inputs like operator, signal coverage and strenght in areas you're at, etc.

Redrum, is there kernel from your signature included in Aroma to choose it during installation or just should I choose stock kernel and flash kernel from your sig after installation? Pozdrav

Sanvold what should i do to fix wifi and bluetooth problem ?
[Desire Android Development] charlie1voyvoy:
yes it is. I have tried every forum and website an have not found the solution
[Desire Android Development] Bojan155:
When was the last time it worked? What ROM? Are you (or anyone else) able to check if it pairs with other bluetooth devices?
[Desire Android Development] JDYx:
Can anyone confirm whether or not quickpic will allow video playback on this rom?

TIA
[Desire Android Development] Bojan155:
quickpic gives the same buggy playback as the stockplayer for me. edit: as in have to press play 2 or 3 times before it starts, laggy video, green stripes on some clips. mx player works fine.
[Desire Android Development] moss20:
no video playbak with quickpic...

ROM ICS for desire by Sandvold
[Desire Android Development] m4jkee:
So about tweaking ICS, i've tried a AOPK rom (milestone 5) and i very liked their rom control. so it's any chance, to get something like this on Sandvolds rom?

i uploaded this .apk here http://leteckaposta.cz/749498574

anyway i can not install it, so i can not try it.
[Desire Android Development] mickyw1980:
Sorry to butt in bojan but what set up are you using if you don't mind me asking?
[Desire Android Development] Bojan155:
typical install beta 0.8

a2sd

cpu: conservative

min/max cpu : 384/1036

+ soft keys mod from mattman
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
The mods should work,as i believe there were no changes to the roms apk's.

If not, please let me know and i'll update :)
[Desire Android Development] mld0491:
just realised 0.8 killed my hotmail app :(
[Desire Android Development] Bojan155:
You can use the already installed email app to configure hotmail, just choose automatic, insert email address and password and it does everything automatically. Just watch out as it enables syncing your contacts/calendar by default as well, something that I missed the first time and despised later on.
[Desire Android Development] LaidbackNikez:
Help me help you!

Ok guys, summer is coming up soon which means I'll have a lot more spare-time which means I could develop more. However as it is now - It's too annoying without a phone. So I need your help to gather cash for an used HTC Desire.

Please contribute so I can keep developing for you guys.

Chip-in/Donations for an used HTC Desire - Use this link to donate/chip-in. This page has a real-time tracker on how much is donated.

Ps. I already have a new phone - so this is strictly for developing.
[Desire Android Development] itang:
thank u so much for the answer.. :D

Just found this ROM is awesome.

Before this ROM I always try Sense ROM, but for me this ROM is great.

thanks Sandvold
[Desire Android Development] Sandvold:
Not 3.x kernel:) It's just some changes that should improve hwa
[Desire Android Development] Sandvold:
Need some more info then that:P
[Desire Android Development] vossy99:
Anyone noticing the Dialer a big laggy?? I'm using the T9 version. Running on 0.7, but had the same on 0.6.x as well. I am also running CallConfirm on top, & haven't disabled this yet to see if that's whats causing it. After hitting the dial button there's a noticable delay before the CallConfirm prompt appears.

And how can I choose what contacts to display. I've got duplicates of pretty much all of them. Presume 1 set is what's been synced to google, & the other SIM maybe??

Also wanted to mention that the "bravo-cayniarb-ics-stock-042612.zip" kernel has been running very well for me. Think I flashed it on the 10th, & no BSOD's with On-Demand gov. Getting about 2 days out of the battery with a few phone calls, read emails, etc. Got Juice Defender doing it's thing too, but not sure how much it's adding.
[Desire Android Development] Sandvold:
I dont use the dailer myself and it might be a newer version out there. Havnt checked. So if anyone know if its upsated that would be great
[Desire Android Development] redrum781:
It's in aroma installer, tobby d or something...
[Desire Android Development] karo222:
I told you before that my wireless can't find any wireless network and my bluetooth just can send files and it's not able to receive files.

I install this rom beta .8 typically without changing any of it's setting

What should I do ?
[Desire Android Development] Sandvold:
Got no idea actually except trying different kernels
[Desire Android Development] redrum781:
I asked thalamus about building it. He might, I repeat MIGHT try it if his time allows it, just for the fun, but it's waaay down on his list of priorities.

I thought of trying it myself but with wife and kids time is a luxury I don't have.

I wish all this android thing started a couple of years sooner.
[Desire Android Development] Sandvold:
As i've mentioned before then shaky might do it as well when he have finished a few of his projects
[Desire Android Development] Spierbal:
It would be interesting to know what radio you are? Sometimes it helps to revert back to earlier one..

I also suggests to try some free apps such as Bluetooth file transfer that can help add bluetooth functionality, for wifi scan issues try wFXR WiFi fix and rescue or wifix app.
[Desire Android Development] Sandvold:
Btw the kernel plus newest adreno libs seems quite a lot smoother but worse batterylife compared to stock kernel. No wonder since its based on tiamat.

Hopefully shaky makes his git so drewis can add it to his kernel as well and we can get the best of two worlds.

Anyway im going to test it fir a day or two more to ensure stabilty and stuff like thay before i release but everything seems promising.
[Desire Android Development] suiller:
excellent :cool:

anyway I just realized that is not possible anymore to disable power collapse...

root@android:/ # getprop|grep colla
getprop|grep colla
[ro.ril.disable.power.collapse]: [0]
root@android:/ # setprop ro.ril.disable.power.collapse 1
setprop ro.ril.disable.power.collapse 1
root@android:/ # getprop|grep colla
getprop|grep colla
[ro.ril.disable.power.collapse]: [0]
root@android:/ #

as mentioned some posts back some ISP doesn't support or better doesn't give full support to this instruction, so under some circumstances is not possible to restore 3G... the only solution is a reboot :rolleyes:
[Desire Android Development] 6chrisp:
Tried searching, has anyone found a solution to the bug of coming off wifi and 3G not working (just showing grey bars until reboot)??
[Desire Android Development] ekre:
i really love this rom.

i have a wifi problem, downloading via wifi is extremly slow, installing dropbox for example took about 15 minutes. i usually get a few kb/sec transfer rate.

i did a full wipe, clean install, without any restore.

im using tiamat kernel, modified dhcpd (with stock, i cant connect to our network, it fails at obtaining ip)

edit: flashed over again, now with toby_d's kernel. wifi is still slow.
[Desire Android Development] hurin8:
It killed my kaitenmail also!
[Desire Android Development] Bojan155:
So forgetting to turn off wireless before bed wasn't a success :D
[Desire Android Development] suiller:
mine works

---------- Post added at 11:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:44 AM ----------

it could depend by power collapse, actually no more controllable (it stays enabled)
[Desire Android Development] 6chrisp:
Thanks, but I don't actually know what that means!!
[Desire Android Development] Sandvold:
Testing some new kernels right now (shaky is helping building) seems really promising.

He might have a solution for stopping bsod as well.

Click on an ad if you visit my site btw:)
[Desire Android Development] kl1k:
I've haven't had any problems since I installed 0.8 - running the default kernel. I have noticed the battery doesn't as long though as it did when I was running Runnymede. Maybe another kernel might fix it but I'm not going to change just yet.
[Desire Android Development] muellersmattes:
For me 2g/3G toggle also works. Would be great if evervolv could include a widget for that in the notification toolbox.

[Desire Android Development] 6chrisp:
That doesn't solve it for me, only a reboot. :( Sandvold, what is causing this problem?
[Desire Android Development] Craigus_91:
Hi,

I have this exact same problem when trying to download apps via the market. I'm on 0.8 and have done a full wipe, toby_d kernel, no modified DHCPD (but have also tried the modified DHCPD which didn't fix the issue)
[Desire Android Development] Sandvold:
Kind of hard for me to know without all info
[Desire Android Development] Sandvold:
Yes i know wifi is slow sometimes. Not sure whats causing it but its one of the priorutys soon

Edit

Btw have anyone tried the build.prop tweaks ans init.s scripts thats suppose to make 3g and wifi better?
[Desire Android Development] gaps07:
I'm on the run and I can't install quickoffice from Amazon app store. Any ideas? :confused:

B 0.8, amarullz and apex, everything else stock.

I tried to make a logcat with logcat app from market. (not sure if I made it right, any advice on how to configure it)

anyways here's what I got: http://pastebin.com/vKBayzKt.

Any help would be truly appreciated :thumbup:

Looks like dalvik runs out. Move dalvik to sd (which is known to slow down the phone,be warned) is the solution that spribgs to mind
[Desire Android Development] gaps07:
But I'm on amarullz, how do I do it? Raflash and select stock a2sd?

it's weird because I can install apps from play store :(

Thanks

[Desire Android Development] Sandvold:
I dont know. Dont use amazon myself. Itmight be more memoryhungry then playstore or something.

I just read the logcat and noticed that error
[Desire Android Development] himi-xda:
Hi,

I am on 0.8, HBOOT Data++,

After installation in Terminal emulator I ran a2sd install and get this "Aborting

Can someone explain exactly what commands to use? And what is causing the error?

Cheers :-)
[Desire Android Development] Casi92:
it's 15 minutes that the phone continues to make the X of boot.

i changed now, and i put fatsys, this rom doesn't work with it?

---------- Post added at 06:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:48 PM ----------

did u use stock a2sd during installation or did u change it with amrazul?
[Desire Android Development] himi-xda:
Hmm do not remember :-) can I run the installation again over my current and choose amarulz?
[Desire Android Development] Sandvold:
fastys won't work
[Desire Android Development] charlie1voyvoy:
Mild Wild 3.8 bluetooth working and pairing perfectly. Previous to that Redux (all versions) working too. This is the first room my car is rejecting. Also another bug i identified (lot less important) is that the application called the mobile hidden camera shut downs when it try to make a photo or a video. But the only thing i am worried about is the bluetooth.
[Desire Android Development] Sandvold:
Depends on what you choose last time. Did you star the a2sd script

If you havn't done that then no problem. If not you can try but it might cause porblems
[Desire Android Development] 6chrisp:
I'm on 0.8 with regular a2sd, dalvik on sd, appdata on internal, tobby-d kernel (smartass v2, no overclocking).

I've had the issue since about 0.5: When leaving my house or uni, the phone leaves WiFi and after a few seconds it displays H or 3G (as expected), but the bars are grey instead of blue and I have no internet connection through any app.

I've tried lots of combinations of toggling mobile data, WiFi, and flight mode but the only thing that restores 3G is a reboot. :(

Thanks for any help
[Desire Android Development] Sandvold:
That's quite an incositent bugreport. Cause the only thing the blue bars shows is if you're connected to googles servers. If you got H or 3g internet should work anyway.

Can you try to logcat this?
[Desire Android Development] 6chrisp:
Ok here's my first attempt at a logcat! Hope it's ok.

I just started logcat, went back to home screen, toggled wifi off, (then bars went grey and stayed grey), then opened browser and refreshed page but no connection.

Thanks for your help
[Desire Android Development] Sandvold:
I got to go to bed. Will go through questions tomorrow

Been a productive day. A lot off testing and the newest kernel with the newest adreno libs is running good now. There is a bit stability isses that i want to check out before releasing + trying to get a bit more speed out of it:) So you have to be patient for some days.

Anyway good night and click on a link if you get bored during the night:)
[Desire Android Development] charlie1voyvoy:
And yes i can pair the car with other devices. I tried everything even changing radio. I think the key is in relation to the pasword to pair. This Rom is the only one that does not give me the chance to write down a password/pin to pair

i'm in 0.7 with stock kernel and stock A2Sd (Y/Y/Y) and sometime like 1 time every 2 days, my phone don't wake up, i need remove battery and restart.

Any idea how i can make some log about that to post here?
[Desire Android Development] Sandvold:
Just go to the evervolv app. Performance - CPU then change governor to conservative

That should sort it
[Desire Android Development] :
Sandvold, looks to me the error is on rom code, jump on irc n ill tell u

Sent from my HTC Desire HD
[Desire Android Development] Bojan155:
I have been researching this and I'm afraid this might be something related to ICS and not specifically to this ROM. If you for example search on XDA you find quite some results where people are reporting pairing issues with ICS and several devices.

I compared files out of a GB rom and the ICS rom and so far can't find something obvious. There could be compatibility issues between ICS and some devices. I'll keep looking into it but can't promise anything concrete nor quick fixes, sorry.

Edit:

To rule this ROM out, has anyone made a succesfull pairing with this ROM to a bluetooth device? I don't have one lying around to try.

---------- Post added at 09:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:33 PM ----------

So I managed to find 2 devices with bluetooth an ipad (the horror) and an old nokia. The ipad did see the desire in the beginning but could not pair with it, it showed like a verification code which I needed to OK on both devices. The desire then claimed it was paired but the ipad kept searching for devices.

On the nokia, when I tried to pair from desire -> nokia it asked for a pin, after putting it in the screen blinked on the nokia but no pairing was made. When I did it from the nokia -> desire it worked, I made a succesful pairing and could share files.

I still think its not specific to this ROM but most likely compatibility issues in ICS, maybe more people have results similar to mine?
[Desire Android Development] grongo:
Hi,

I've no problems connecting it with my car bluetooth. I really never had any trouble with any Sandvold ICS ROM. I have a Nexxus BT similar to this one.

Please let me know if I can do anything to help on the "debug"?

Problem with GPS and data service for me.

Whenever I use an app that requires the use of GPS, facebook or maps etc, my data gets disconnected and rarely restores itself unless I reboot.

Everything stock except patched mms.

Tried GPS patch but no joy.

Any help would be appreciated
[Desire Android Development] Bojan155:
Thanks, it confirms more that this could be a compatibility issue in ICS and not related to the ROM.

Try installing an app like GPS status , it helps "kick starting" GPS.
[Desire Android Development] gaps07:
I've been pairing my desire with a Jabra Extreme Bluetooth headset and I haven't had any issues so far. But again this headset connects automatically without asking for a pin the 1st time it's connected/synced.

I've also been able to transfer files with a Samsung Galaxy Mini, Ace without problems.

Hope this input helps

To successfully connect to my car audio I have to do it 2 times. First attempt to pair devices always fails, second time it connects and after that it works without problem.
[Desire Android Development] user1911:
Older versions (last time i tried was around 0.3X or 0.4X) of the rom paired well with my car nav sys. But it stopped working with the newer versions (tried with 0.7X and 0.8).

It does connect from the phone to the car sys, but only as a bluetooth audio player and not as phone. The other way around the car sys cant even find the phone. dont have time to go beyond this right now, just wanted to give you some infos.

greetz

p.s.: n1 work as always @sandvold and all other supporters!

[Desire Android Development] mickyw1980:
Working, thanks.
[Desire Android Development] tonyp:
I can confirm this. The 15% shutdown appeared right on the day I flashed ICS, before on different GB ROMs (Sense2.1+3.0, Sense3.5, Sense2.1) it turned off at 0%.

I don't think this is the battery degradations fault, the battery controller should be able to handle that.
[Desire Android Development] marcocsh:
I have the same GPS problem. The above solution is for those whose GPS doesn't start right?:confused:

Our GPS does start but our problem is that what the GPS start, the data/3G connection is lost.

It is a different problem!:(
[Desire Android Development] mickyw1980:
I downloaded the gps app that Bojan said, in the tools section of the app goto 'manage a-gps state', press 'reset' to clear cached gps data, then 'download' for the latest gps data.

I can confirm that this has solved the issue for me.:):):)

Which is the best backup solution for apps with this rom if it's gonna be easy to restore apps after a full wipe? I'm using amarullz a2sd.

Skickat från min HTC Desire via Tapatalk 2
[Desire Android Development] Smask:
I think the roms that shows 0% before they shuts down uses a relative battery scale with 0% being the lower limit of usable charge.

Every device that have li-ion batteries shuts of before it is totally empty because 0% is really bad for a li-ion battery.

Havent tested with wifi on because its not working on this build/kernel
[Desire Android Development] himi-xda:
Hi,

Reinstall with amarulez just messed things up ..

So if I do a clean install with wipe all with HBOOT Data++ and Version 0.8

What options can I choose instead of A2SD?

What will work with HBOOT Data++ ?

Stock a2sd

Amarullz ad2sdx

Regular a2sd

Dalvik2sd

Oxygen data2sd

Cheers !

Hi,

What SD memory card class is prefered? Will a Class 10 be sufficient?

Cheers!
[Desire Android Development] toub_:
I must emphasize this :rolleyes:

When flashing 0.8 yesterday, I thought I'd give amarullz a try. I knew my class 4 was not a top one, but the result was the phone being just unusable. I reflashed with stock a2sd and everything works flawlessly.

I also went back to stock kernel (+conservative) and at first sight it's a huge relief for battery compared to tiamat. As expected, no BSOD so far.

Great job Sandvold !
[Desire Android Development] TheYang:
well that was the readout while charging, after i disconnected the charger i read between -66mA and -81mA

still conservative wifi on 0.8 245-993

just turned the wifi off and let it sit for a while
