Hi;

Do you SMS Screen on opsiton?
[Desire HD Android Development] JSLEnterprises:
From my understanding of the question, no, there is no 'screen on' option for incoming sms, its not part of the original experience. Thats a tweaks extra, which is NOT included. Thats not what my rom represents.

Aligning can be done with 4ext recovery. But be sure to backup your stuff that was on the sd-card, and copy it back when the formating process is finished.
[Desire HD Android Development] JSLEnterprises:
and do a low level format after the repartitioning, not a quick one. That can be done using windows before shoving your stuff back on your micro sd.

Hate to seem like an impatient idiot, but am I the only one facing the issues posted on the previous page? Especially the stuff with the Market apps showing as not installed, and MyBackup Pro not allowing to fix the links either.
[Desire HD Android Development] krzych:
What exactly do you mean by "low level" format? As far as I know, there's no possibility to low level format anything withing windows without custom software, and still, it's very dangerous to your hardware and for SD - according to my knowledge - impossible - it's a memory, there are no physical sectors on a "disk" or something...

And if you've meant only non-quick - then why? Quick differs from normal format only by not writing zeroes to your SD where there are free "sectors", so it's quite pointless to do it on SD (and more, harmful - one less write to the life expectancy of your SD) - all other things are done by quick format as normal format aswell.

Or I missed something?
[Desire HD Android Development] JSLEnterprises:
With flash memory (including ssd's) a full format or even making a large file full of null data (all zeros) will wipe all data on the device. It's not like its a mechanical HDD where data can be recovered even after wiping a 5th or 6 time with a true low level format. Just the nature of flash, once the data is overwritten, its gone for good. So a full format in windows is the same as a low level format with special dos based tools for a mechanical HDD in a pc. Also, we both know that a quick format just deletes the mft.

Hope that cleared things up a little bit.

ARHD 6.3.1 and did a full wipe before flashing. Apps restored via MyBackup Pro... Odd thing is, if I click one of the apps listed as not installed in market, there's still a link to open the app?

Edit: This is getting more and more weird. I tried downloading Titanium Backup (just the free version) and tried fixing some random market links, and of course got the "paid version only" error. However, after doing this with a couple of apps, all of them suddenly appeared as installed in Market - WTF?! :D Just did a reboot and they seem to stick now.

Also, regarding the rather "jumpy" standby currents, they seemed to disappear along with a reboot too. I don't know if the Music player causes some kind of trouble, even when it appears to be killed? I remember reading someone posting about it in the ARHD thread too at least.

Contact Picture w/ Facebook

Hey JSL, going back to the issue of not all Facebook contact pictures coming up, I tried your fix and it didn't work. So last night I did some flashing (:eek:) and tried a couple ROMs to see where I had the problem. I flashed your 2.25 and 3.0 ROMs and both times the only thing I did after flashing was wait, reboot and setup my Facebook account. I then let Facebook sync data a couple times to see what I got. For both ROMs the People app only sync the contact pictures of the Facebook people with a phone number. Everyone else it didn't grab their contact picture.

So then I flashed the RCMix 4.0 ROM and did the same wait, reboot and setup Facebook. After a couple syncs, all the contact pictures came up. Maybe some of this might help you track it down?

After all that, I restored my ROM to where I started the night with my fully setup version of ER3BUS 3.0. My wife's contact photo is one of the images that wasn't showing up. So I went on her FB account and added a phone number to her profile. Sure enough, next sync with FB, her picture came through.
[Desire HD Android Development] krzych:
Yes, it's obvious it will be irrecoverable, but why advicing (lets say) "full format" (coz low level is really misleading) after partition realigning? What's the point of this besides you will definitely loose any data?

mft = you mean file allocation table (whatever it is called in other file system types than windows fat) - if so, you're not quite right - it also clears whole directory space, writes empty journals etc. - depends on filesystem - which all of those theoretically and practically (in my opinion) equals to full format - that's why I ever asked this question. Why to zero SD while we can simply zero all descriptors? What can cause non-empty sector alone?

I just don't get this.

PS. Zeroing after realign zero's data places because any descriptor places are shifted... I really have no idea what you meant

[Edit]

Since there are ads blocked and SSHDroid cannot revert it (mount command failed because of wrong syntax - strange), do you have any advice how to set up sshd without SSHDroid? This I would prefer instead of reverting to ads, but if you don't know any other way for sshd, how to revert it, and why including no-ads into ROM instead of no-add app which can do it very quickly and similarly Market can do it (its an option in settings). I think its a little bit outdated method... (hosts probably, didn't checked since have no sshd ;P)

Confirming applications not "installed from Market" - can tell what to do with this one... Backup with Titanium and restore? I suppose I would have to go pro... don't see any other way...

Next "bug" - strange busybox:

# ls -al

All three empty directiories are constantly showed in Titanium as never installed/never backed up applications. Dates/times suggest those were installed by ROM but it can be as well a trash from clockwork recovery (cw = clockwork), I don't know - removing in my case.

hTC Location

Hy everybody, thanks for this rom, i tried lots of roms but this one is really the best! :)

I have a problem: when i first launched hTC Locations it says i needed to update it; did it, and after license sync (i payed for europe complete) maps aren't loaded from sd card, it always get them online. Why? Did it occure to anyone? Any solution? Thanks a lot, and keep the good work!

Ciao.

[Desire HD Android Development] makbil:
I haven't done it yet but I think you would lose all data on your SD card when you align, so by doing an extra format you don't really lose anything. Aligning basically matches the number of data segments with the page size to prevent having to read unnecessary data, I'm not sure if doing a full format on windows would change these page boundaries.
[Desire HD Android Development] krzych:
Ok, how can you achieve this on Linux with fdisk?

By the way - I know what aligning is, but still don't get why should I use "full format" instead of quick format. I know I won't loose data, but I force my SD to work unnecessarily, and that seems not good.

HTC have confirmed that this is an issue with their servers and they are working on fixing it. It's been like that for about a month.

It's not device or ROM related.

You cask anyone on a HTC device, rooted or not. They will have the same problem intermittantly.

I have to admit, I already like this ROM ;P. Dunno why :D

Not true. I always had the good data from weather. For sure you check the box from "Allow mock locations" under settings-applications-development!
[Desire HD Android Development] lrm537:
Can't say that I've noticed this. In fact i would go as far as to say that it hasn't happened to me at all. Didn't even know such a problem existed until this post. Been using Sense ROMs all the time for the last few months.

Any chance of a link to this confirmation ??

Just a little odd bug I discovered: When setting a manual contact pic (selecting part of a picture from Gallery for example), the picture shown on the lockscreen when receiving a text from said contact, is of very low quality. Any way to fix it? It doesn't look like it happens when the picture is from a Facebook contact.
[Desire HD Android Development] mwilky:
I think the contact has to be saved on phone memory not Google other wise the picture uploads to Google as a thumbnail and then stretches to fit the text received box.

Not sure if my answers 100% correct but I read something like that a while ago
[Desire HD Android Development] tmh:
I think I'll give that a go - odd that they would make the picture crappy, it's not like they're lacking server space, one would think lol. Thanks man.
[Desire HD Android Development] mwilky:
Yeah I know, like I said I'm not sure if that is the correct answer but from the top of my head it sounds correct
[Desire HD Android Development] tmh:
Looks like it's not making much of a difference here, sadly :( Also, I just found out that my girlfriend can't call me, but she can send me texts and I can call her and send her texts as well. Both our carriers say no issues atm., so trying to figure out what's up with that (not blaming the ROM yet, don't worry :P)
[Desire HD Android Development] makbil:
So, that's perfect, what are you complaining about :D
[Desire HD Android Development] tmh:
I would laugh, but I've spent all day getting everything setup and working and this is not really amusing to find out, at half past midnight, sorry :P Any way to test this, when a third phone calling me is out of the question at this time of day?
[Desire HD Android Development] makbil:
Have you checked for any blocked contacts?
[Desire HD Android Development] :
I have a small bug report :

In some instances where there is a date which is not expressed in numbers, but words (like "monday" "tuesday") i have the letters in what i presume is hebrew writing. My language is set to English(Poland). Obviously i'd rather have those in normal english writing ;)

This shows for example in the calendar app, calendar widget, the SMS app where it needs to say a day of the week instead of a numerical date, and some others.

Except for that the ROM is golden, no complaints :)
[Desire HD Android Development] tmh:
Nothing blocked. I guess I'll have to do a backup, then restore backup of ARHD and see if the problem is present there as well.
[Desire HD Android Development] krzych:
Why, maybe they would like each other, such a lil nice triangle ;)

But seriously - schedule wakeup service anywhere if possible. Or call logged logged in xda member for help :)
[Desire HD Android Development] tmh:
Alright, just backed up this ROM, and restored ARHD, on which I've both made and received calls (radios are identical too, btw), and I still couldn't call from gf's phone to mine with it, so something's gotta be up with either one of our carriers, that's for damn sure.

And now, just to make myself stand out even more as an idiot: I just tried to call my insurance company (a number where I knew I wouldn't wake anyone up) from her phone, and as expected, got the network error there as well, so her carrier must be having some problems.

Thanks to those who gave suggestions etc. :)

[Desire HD Android Development] osiedacz:
Hey JSL, sorry to quote my own post. But I played around with this tonight and was able to fix the issue. I had to replace the Facebook app in your ROM zip with the one from RCMix3D 4.0. I flashed my phone fresh with the ER3BUS XL3.0 ROM zip, but with the older facebook app in it and after the flash I fired up FB and logged in. After 2 or 3 syncs, all the contact pictures came through to the people app. Had you maybe updated the Facebook app with a newer version from Market, instead of the one that came with the ROM? Or was the FB app in your ROM the one that came with the 1.22 release?
[Desire HD Android Development] hamdir:
so something had to ruin my time with this awesome Rom

camera is acting unlike official firmware, if I drop sharpness to -2 which usually disables all sort of image processing like my camera guide explains and gives excellent pure image quality, its not working here even with -2 photos are still smudged with a median filter!

i tried the DHD sense 3.0 camera and same result so strange :( must be the drivers
[Desire HD Android Development] krzych:
I'm gonna confirm this one - it's important - tests started.

[edit]

Hmm, I see the difference. Tested with stool lamps light on the mouse cable - on 2 ste - there is long artifact along the cable, on 1 set, there is much lighter artifact, on 0 set, theres no artifact at all, photo is lightly blurred - seems like old behavior, but I'm only 80% sure of if, I will test it again outside

[/edit]

[edit]

Same outside - cannot confirm

[/edit]

By the way, I've found very strange and annoying behavior of alarms. I cannot say what this is or means, so I will describe what I've set up, and the result:

I have three alarms set one by one with 15 mins gap between each. Snooze time is 10 minutes. First alarm is at full hour. Now... the effect is strange... Alarm generally works, but... it rings DIFFERENT sound/ringtone that I've set up!!! (and that's why asleep once, and twice seen only last alarm's last snooze ringing and have no idea that it's ringing like this all the time or not - I'm gonna check this at home today while awake :P)
[Desire HD Android Development] tmh:
Kind of off topic, but then not: I thought the -2 trick wasn't necessary since 2.50 firmware?
[Desire HD Android Development] krzych:
I never changed camera firmware if this is possible by any other means than flashing ROM (I mean, if this is done like flashing radio, then no, I did not flashed my camera software), and I have no issues - normal old behavior.

By the way, I wondered what Hamdir was talking about the firmware in his thread and almost decided to go his way, but as I see now, it's not quite so simple...

Are there any advantages of new frimware besides your statement above?
[Desire HD Android Development] hamdir:
no as i said in my guide it improved but still applies a certain form of processing

for me i always liked the untouched quality with -2

best ever was with the old froyo firmware, but now this is trouble for me

i hate the quality of the photos in this built @krzych -2 and 0 are giving very similar result, by firmware we mean the base RUU it could be any ROM using this base

ive tried everything nothing gets rids of the artifacts...:eek: not even stock sense 3.0 HTCCamera.apk

with the official 3.12 sharpness -2 works as intended, very odd indeed, i don't want to go back, anyone knows where the camera drivers are located? in the rom or kernel?

i will try an older kernel and report!
[Desire HD Android Development] sigurd_LU:
Maybe it's a Runnymede problem, did you observe this with RCMix as well when you tried it (if you did, but I remember you saying that)?
[Desire HD Android Development] hamdir:
ok i found the reason for the camera problem

it has nothing to do with the kernel, the -2 setting is not sticking!

manually set it again before you take a shot and it will work, take another shot after the preview and even though the slider says -2 it resets to sharpness 0 quality, you have to set it every time

i will try the sense 3.0 camera again and report
[Desire HD Android Development] krzych:
I still don't get it....

What is the firmware then? Flashable "in-camera" software _different_ than ROMs camrea drivers which are flashed win ROM or not?

If this is a separate flashable part, then possible explanation is as follows: drivers with this ROMs version are intended to work with my old Froyo's firmware.

If you changed your firmware, then you should find the drivers too (like RILs for the Radio) if such a thing like RILs for camera ever exists...

As I said, my camera works as intended, flawlessly giving unsharpened/unchanged image as always.

PS. And if you were so kind to answer my last question it would be really cool ;) - I mean, any advantages of new firmwares for "non-processed" image settings - I mean, if you can make an unsharpened image with old firmware, why to change it? (as far as I've heard, all other features worked well in old firmware as well)
[Desire HD Android Development] hamdir:
mate firmware is the base RUU for the whole ROM not specific to the camera, i did answer

ok same problem with sense 3.0 and 3.5 HTCCamera.apk, the sharpness setting does not stick in this ROM

you have to set it everytime you take a shot
[Desire HD Android Development] krzych:
So it IS NOT any separate part, so we have THE SAME firmware now since we both use Er3BuS ?!

If thats true, then why my -2 is different than yours -2? And yes, I told you three times already that my -2 _does_not_ sharpen my photos at all.
[Desire HD Android Development] sigurd_LU:
Have you tried the lyapota camera for the Runny base? I mean the one he modified to make panorama mode working etc. Can't find the post now..
[Desire HD Android Development] krzych:
Checking, but I'm almost sure now it's not true. But I'll double check this one.

[EDIT]

It IS TRUE. It's strange though, I can almost swear that -2 first time you quit camera then back is now -1 because the middle image taken is not the same as fist one while:

1. first image = -2 not touched set before quit

2. second image taken with setting 0 (!)

3. third image taken with setting -2

Strange. But it explains everything. Camera.apk is buggy _or_ (since it shows previous setting) ROM drivers has different behavior since Camera developer COULD assume that previosu setting will be the same running application again - but it would be really STUPID as ANY application can use camera...
[Desire HD Android Development] hamdir:
yes firmware is the base of the rom, so yes its the same for both of us on the same rom, i was investigating if the kernel is related but its not

now did you notice wat i said about -2 not sticking?

if you set -2 and take shot it works, re-open the camera take a shot with the -2 already set, you can see its not working

the problem is this setting is not sticking you have to set it to -2 every time, i installed this rom from a clean wipe

@sigurd_LU its not related to the camera app, since i tried both lyapota's sense 3.0 and 3.5 camera, i think it has to do with data

@krzych its not the camera app mate the problem is from the data most likely, the setting is not saving

wiping the camera data did not solve it
