[Desire HD Android Development] cstayton:
that thread and info from the google deeveloper has been floating around alot for a couple months now. let me try one more time to explain this:

Batteries like Li-ion and NiCad batteries differ in one respect Li-ion batteries dont retain memory like earlier ones did however, they have a longer but still limited life span of 1000 full charge cycles. meaning fully charged drained to zero charge and then recharged to 100%. now the batterystats.bin file holds a log of charge cycles along with usage and other stats. along with this android, linux and windows all keep track of how the battery is behaving through a log file. and can use this information to do such things as correctly report percentage of charge, life cycle of the battery etc. if this log file becomes corrupt or does not correctly reflect the the state of charge it can and will give the os cause to report incorrect charge in the battery thus causing the battery level indicator to be inacurate. so "calibrating" your battery can and does amke a difference only in the reporting status of the OS. (it wont damage the battery) so it is a good idea to do so especially after flashing a new rom only in the aspect of correctly reporting and logging battery use.

long story short - calibrate your battery at least occasionally.

Not so sure, I have carried out full wipes manually and through flashing various full wipe zip's and I still have completely random reboot on 4.3.3 AOKP, I can go a day of normal usage and it be rock solid and then using the exact same apps I can have three or four reboots in a row before it settles down again, I find wiping cache does sometimes seem to help. And before you suggest it's something I've restored I fairly frequently get them from the off (i.e full wiped, flashed rom then booted to reboots).

---------- Post added at 11:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:54 PM ----------

But according to the android developer Battery stats is wiped when the phone is unplugged near full charge, so it would seem to make more sense to just charge it to full regularly?
[Desire HD Android Development] mbudden:
Is anyone else getting the mobile carrier more and more? I have gotten it at least 3-4 times today.
[Desire HD Android Development] cstayton:
thus we create our own problem, how often do you make sure your phone is at 100% before you flash a new rom? me? rarely does that happen so the result is android can "Lose track".

it's unfortunate that (and quite true) that allthough most developers can tell you exactly what thier program or OS is supposed to do (im not talking about XDA devs and such, but the actual OEM developers) if you sat one down and asked them to show you how to use it they would be just as lost as most of us until they actually used it and learned it. I develop .net apps in a legal environment and i work with a team just like google, i know what my part of the code does and how to fix it if its broke but i dont necesarily know what the dev of the other parts of the app have done. the same applies at google she may be the senior dev but it is not likely that she could run through the entire os top to bottom and know what every piece of code does or if it works the way she thinks it does. and the main thing is we can't account for what might or might not have been changed by an outside source that could interfere with what the code is technically supposed to do.

Just noticed that I can pull down notification bar from lockscreen ... is this normal or a hidden setting? Can someone confirm the same for theirs?

If its standard I can't stand it :( any way to disable?
[Desire HD Android Development] LorD ClockaN:
you could have always pull down notifications in lockscreen.. I yet have to find where to lock it
[Desire HD Android Development] 1234568:
Its a "feature" of ICS. You can disable it by enabling any kind of lockscreen security (pin/password/pattern).

Maybe looking at the code relating to enabling lockscreen security would give a clue on how to disable it. Just a guess though... :confused:
[Desire HD Android Development] RampageRR:
Normal ICS behavior. Not aimed at you, but not sure why people freak out over it. Its just as unlikely to be accidentally activated as the regular slide to unlock.
[Desire HD Android Development] alienmind:
Ok, back to the LCD density and market issue. Just for the record:

My previous message actually only worked ONCE, turned out that i was without sim card, only on wifi. After rebooting with data, it stopped working, and never had again.

There's an app for market-safe-changing dpi. I've personally didn't tested (it's 3 bucks) but supposedly it has a custom modded Vending.apk (not the 3.4.4 modded that is floating around) that intercepts a few more checks against google servers.

In case anyone is interested: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1428830

yup. I found out the same last night. I will confirm with my mate who has got a Nexus to confirm if it's really a feature or a bug in this custom rom.

HELP!! Trebuchet stopped - Can't use launcher anymore?!

Today I've succesfully installed the latest "IceColdSandwich - 4.2.AOKP - 03-03-2012 - Community Edition" build, which works great!

But...after adjusting the Workspace transition setting in Trebuchet to Cube out, I constantly get the message "Trebuchet stopped". The only thing I can do here is press the OK button, but this message keeps on coming back. Also I only see the background picture appearing, but not widget at all (completely empty screen) and each press on OK gives me the same message again.

I've already rebooted my phone (HTC Desire HD) several times, but after I've unlocked the lockscreen, this messages and this behavior keeps on getting back.

Does anyone know a solution for me? I can of course flash the ROM again, but I hope that someone knows a more elegant solution?

Thanks in advance for your help & suggestions!
[Desire HD Android Development] demanzke:
Just had a look at the most recent posts in this thread. it seems like he does only provide the modded apk someone else made (the one that doesn't allow purchasing apps) and I've got this in my overlay folder anyways.

I don't understand how this guy can seriously expect anyone to pay for changing one line in a textfile and pushing an apk? I'd rather write it on my own :confused:
[Desire HD Android Development] thomaswp:
I don't think many people use Trebuchet. Try nova (like Trebuchet with bells and whistles) or ADW.
[Desire HD Android Development] kingsti:
I had this kind of problem before where it would take 2-3 attempts each time I boot up before the phone became stable. If I did not have any of my applications running, e.g. after a full wipe, the phone would be stable on first boot. I suspected it was due to a lot of things happening at the same time, e.g. sync, all the startup programs. However, I have not seen this in 4.3 (test2) - it always boots first time (and that was without full wipe). What I did get this morning was the launcher (Apex) hanged so I checked with system tuner pro. I saw tha jorte was running at 9% and Apex at 12% cpu. I uninstalled Jorte and have not seen this problem since. Still experimenting, but would suggest check CPU activity to see if something is using a lot of CPU.
[Desire HD Android Development] wvdmeer:
I just installed the ROM literally as it is out-of-the-box, which apparently only contains Trebuchet.

But do you know a way to add a new launcher at the stage I'm in (not being able to start any app, like e.g. the Market app). Can I e.g. repair something remote via the USB connection? Or any other way?
[Desire HD Android Development] hogofwar:
I am using the old CM version of this, is it worth waiting for another cm version or to just go to aokp?

[Desire HD Android Development] RampageRR:
Download onto desktop, transfer to SD card. Then install from SD card if possible, or push through adb if not.
[Desire HD Android Development] RampageRR:
I would definitely recommend it when switching bases.

I just wanted to say Huge Thanks to Lord, Twisted and all the devs that had nerves and patience to build this amazing ICS experience. From the version 4.1 everything is unbelievable smooth.

One problem is persistent for quite some time, but didn't want to mention it. From time to time when I open Facebook app, it does full reboot of the device. It's not a big deal for me, because I don't use FB that much.

One more thing, twitter contact sync is not working at all for quite some time too.

That's it from me ... can't wait to flash another version :D

interesting mms issue

one interesting thing, that maybe can be even useful to developer:

When i installed version 4.0.0. my MMS became finally to work. Yesterday i have updated with latest version and mms gone broken again.

What is the differrence between those two versions?

Can maybe somebody guide me, how can i pull out mms.apk from 4.0.0. and revrite mms.apk in latest version of ICS?
[Desire HD Android Development] wvdmeer:
Thanks for the tip to use this launcher! I installed it and it works great! :)

I also found another solution to replace my crashed Trebuchet launcher: I added the Google Market app to the lockscreen, so I was able to install new apps again, then I installed the Nova Launcher app. This enabled me again to start the workspace.

Now I can continue to enjoy this latest ICS build! :D
[Desire HD Android Development] bcd420:
Here you go mms.apk from 4.0 replace the one in system/app and set the permissions

So...

I think I got tile rendering working? Either that or the build.prop debug.enabletr=true does nothing...

If it is working, I'm failing to see any improvement except in the app drawer and Google Music.

1.) I'm not sure if this next thing actually matters, since I didn't try it before doing it, but here:

I replaced most of the GPU libs in /system/lib/egl/ with the ones from the most recent Sensation XL leak. I replaced everything except egl.cfg, eglSubandroid.so, and libGLES_android.so. I got rid of the first line in egl.cfg.

Then I replaced libgsl.so, libGLESv2_dbg, libGLESv1_CM.so, and libGLESv2.so in /system/lib/ from the same build.

libtilerenderer.so wasn't changed.

--

And then when I was changing my data settings in build.prop, I figured i'd change the debug.enabletr to true for no reason (and there is no # in front of it)...and after a reboot...everything is running fine without the weird glitches/artifacts.

Can someone please try setting it to true on stock 4.2 or 4.3 builds so we know whether or not the libs matter? If you see weird glitches while scrolling through the homescreen, it isn't working.
[Desire HD Android Development] bcd420:
I enabled tile rendering in build prop on fresh install. No glitches, I'm using adw ex if that matters.

Edit: with trebuchet brief glitch when i open the app drawer
[Desire HD Android Development] shuralash:
Ok. Can i try test build 3 without an full wipe? I`m on 4.2 now.:confused:
[Desire HD Android Development] Moh_Jay:
Enabled tile rendering and see glitches only with screen transitions on nova launcher but that's it they fix once the transition is over

My life is cool...
[Desire HD Android Development] iPwn_:
Yeah that was the problem for the past 3 months when tile rendering was enabled. No glitches in Nova on my end.

So I would think that the libs at least do something?
[Desire HD Android Development] Barkt:
So I know that camera issues being brought up is sort of frowned upon, but I noticed a new issue today that I've never seen brought up

Earlier today on 4.2 the stock can was taking perfect pictures on 8mp as long as I didn't zoom. The only issue was the messed up thumbnails, which using a different gallery solved

A few minutes ago I updated to the newest test and started playing again with the camera. Once again the pictures were glitch free. However all of the pictures from before the update were now glitched. They became corrupted HOURS after taking the picture. Luckily these weren't very important pictures (they were of my TV remote)
[Desire HD Android Development] Moh_Jay:
Possibly, link me with the libs you use and I'll try them out

My life is cool...
[Desire HD Android Development] iPwn_:
I think what I attached is everything. Please note, do not replace the whole egl folder, only the specific files inside. And delete the old files first before adding the new ones, for some reason copy+replace freezes my device. I set the permissions for each file to fully readable/writable/executable.

I would replace the files in /system/lib/ first before doing the .../egl/ ones. Otherwise you might get a boot loop (or at least that's what happened to me).

The egl.cfg is already edited in this zip. Don't worry about deleting the line. (Don't flash this...)
[Desire HD Android Development] Ratix0:
I love this rom, managed to fix my internet issue but I've got one problem with it... As well as about 90% of the custom roms I've tried. There is horrible problems with typing. I'm not sure what exactly did rom makers tweak but most of the roms I've tried have lots of problems with typing.

Most users may not notice this because they type really slow, but for a user like myself who previously came from a physical QWERTY keypad phone like a blackberry or Nokia E series, I can safely say that when I type too fast, the keyboard fail to respond properly and starts lagging and dropping inputs. Initially I thought it was me who wasn't pressing properly but recently I've tried typing on stock rom, even stock froyo which shipped with DHD, typing is silky smooth. No such problems. However most of the custom roms i've tried (ARHD, Leedroid, MIUI, CM7, BlackICE, Virtuous Quattro, And now IceColdSandwich) suffers from this problem. Furthermore I've tried numerous keyboards, from stock HTC to Gingerbread Keyboard App, Stock Gingerbread Keyboard, Ice Cream Sandwich Keyboard App, Stock ICS Keyboard, SwiftkeyX, Swype, all gave the same issue. It has less of single touch issue but more of keys dropping and the keyboard response lagging when I type too fast. I have to drastically slow down my input to reduce the tendency of dropped keys which is very annoying.

I understand that this is probably not something thats easily resolved, considering the bulk of the custom roms I've tried all have this problem. But I'm very curious as to the cause of it and whether this can be solved.

But eitherway, thanks a million LordCloakan! This ICS rom feels really really good!
[Desire HD Android Development] Youngunn2008:
Remember ICS is hacked onto our phones, until we get official ICS HTC drivers it'll be little laggy in some aspects of things. I suffer from the keyboard thing too but its livable.
[Desire HD Android Development] Youngunn2008:
Same here.

Why would we want this debug option on with these updated libs? What would the benefit be?
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Same result just setting enabletr true. Sorry to ruin your day, but there is nothing different in those libs. Removing the first line just means if EGL faults your phone won't boot and the libs aren't different, just newer.
[Desire HD Android Development] Moh_Jay:
Hmm weird I changed the libs and don't have the nova problem anymore...

My life is cool...
[Desire HD Android Development] elbermu:
So you are on a "multi-words per second"?

No problem here, and not I don't consider myself to type slowly.

[Desire HD Android Development] DeadlyCords:
The only issue i'm having with this rom so far is my button lights are constantly lit, draining extra battery for no reason... is there anyway to fix this?
[Desire HD Android Development] iPwn_:
Does "newer" not mean "different"...? And if you see below clearly something happened.
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Newer does not mean different if you understand the basic concept that we deal with code. Is a newer kernel built from the same source different? Or is it just newer? You can change the build date on something without changing internals.

Clearly something happened for one specific user. Was anything else changed? Did they have composition bypass enabled in the build.prop? If so, it is because you packed some libs in there that are not proprietary, but rather generated during the build which in turn would have disabled composition bypass (the other thing I did to get the same results without newer libs), but hey if you know better I will trust your word for it instead...
[Desire HD Android Development] Ratix0:
I would like to emphasis that this problem doesn't just occur with ICS but rather, almost every custom rom out there. But why?
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
People aren't optimizing the keyboard application. The entire thing is rendered images and animations. It is a PRIME place for optimization, but it is usually not thought of that way.

If the application links to Google Weather server or to other servers, I have less information (sometimes nothing at all).

For french and korean users

If you choose layout in french or korean in Rom Control settings, there is a bug with enabling/disabling toggles and in list to change order of toggles.

Tick or untick some toggles (airplane, data, etc.) has no effect in widget. The list contains some items in both languages: english and french or korean

Solution: Change layout into english. Then enable/disable toggles, choose order. Once applied, you can change your layout to french or korean again. The widget will reflect your change.

The issue will surely be solved in a next build.
