[Desire HD Android Development] TheBrilliantMistake:
Most current ICS roms have Video Cam issues, and a variety of other problems.

Many people can still use their phones with those problems, and get benefit from the new features in ICS.

The rom is 'in development', it's released not as a product, but released to TEST by end users. That's what we do... we test the release and help to make it better.

My question to you is... why would you come to forum about ICS (that is NOT released for DesireHD) and expect a finished product?
[Desire HD Android Development] TUN_SD:
are you kidding? read first post, if you don´t like it, use the stock rom or whatever!

these posts the last 24 hours are annoying!
[Desire HD Android Development] UnReA|:
Ok, sorry my question and my bad english
[Desire HD Android Development] Mr.Nic3Guy:
I used the search function, just in case you start criticising me right away :-)

My WiFi Hotspot is working so far. I do have some reboots but I read, that there is no solution by now.

My problem is that I can connect to the Hotspot, but my Laptop says: No Internet Connection. Anyone else facing this issues?

Running 7.0 with fullwipe.
[Desire HD Android Development] virus_spreade121:
Camera doesnt work with Instagram. The artifacts showup on top left corner of the screen. Any fix yet ?
[Desire HD Android Development] TUN_SD:
search the thread "instagram"

oh wonder, there are some results:
[Desire HD Android Development] Rybean:
I use it at work to connect my friends laptop and it works for me. 7.0 also
[Desire HD Android Development] DonPanda:
In Windows go to Network settings, delete your actually home network, connect again with your laptop, set a new homework. <- Should fix it.
[Desire HD Android Development] virus_spreade121:
I stated my problem clearly. I am getting artifacts on top of the screen . The green unwanted borders. The blank screen may disappear but what about the artifacts?
[Desire HD Android Development] harrehk:
Yet you clearly do not understand the concept of searching the thread.

Search again and find Twisted's replies on the matter. They all link to a post in his thread with explains the problem and what you should do about it.

If that's too difficult for you to do, you'll have to live with it.
[Desire HD Android Development] NFNP:
I think i'm dreaming when reading some posts : please guys are u aware of times and blue nights spent to achieve a such excellent ics rom. Please take time to read some posts explaining how to solve your issues.

For me mms, bt, fm tuner are working fine. You need cam recording go to buy a Cam.

Thx a lot Lord and All fellow
[Desire HD Android Development] Mr.Nic3Guy:
I don't really understand what you mean? i connected to the phone for the first time after full wipe. the ssid was different than before which means for the laptop it was a new network?!
[Desire HD Android Development] Galaen:
Also, go under system settings, mobile networks, network operators and choose your network. This has fixed mms for me in the past.
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Or people could actually take the time out of their busy lives making useless changes and actually try to contribute to fixing it... I mean I know I don't have a job and should be spending all the time looking for one working on it, but a little of the "let's all just wait and rely on one person" stuff is draining the last of the motivation I have to ever see it work on this device.
[Desire HD Android Development] zelendel:
OK i have cleaned up the last few posts.
[Desire HD Android Development] TheBrilliantMistake:
The thing is... we can't - 99% of us don't have the skills, and those that potentially could get them don't have the time to invest in through the learning curve of Android (even if they are experienced developers working on other platforms).

People WANT to help, but the ways in which they can are quite limited (testing, helping to document, trying to ease the Q&A assault on the developers etc.)

Ultimately that means we have little choice but to try and cheer on the few folks that are (hopefully) capable of doing the work... and to make matters worse, it's not so easy to figure out who those folks are because they got lost in the crowd of 'Team X release' and 'The 800th ICS flavour ROM'.

The reason folks sit and wait for YOU to fix things is because... erm, as far as we can see, nobody else is able to (or they can't be bothered to share their knowledge of fixes).

I do appreciate there's only so much one guy can do though, and nobody knows every aspect of the code (I worked on SE's R380/P800/P900/10 developments, the Symbian O/S and a number of Motorola and Nokia products) and each of them had circa 50-100 developers working on them) - so it's just crazy to expect you to perform miracles.

Do what you can, when you can whilst you're still motivated to. Nobody would blame you for taking a break from it all either.

Not being able to doesn't worry me in the least, but as certain comments to the cm revisions show others who are capable flat out refuse. They are the ones in need of being pushed.

Whats the highest clockspeed people are running and with which governor and KERNEL on ERROR404 7.0 Stable?
[Desire HD Android Development] ALIEN_:
This is (in some respects) twisted was commenting on. By doing that you will drive people away from the rom.
[Desire HD Android Development] ALIEN_:
I had this issue with Titanium Backup and I had to do multiple wipes and flashes before it decided to work.
[Desire HD Android Development] ALIEN_:
Maybe a solution would be a FAQ created????
[Desire HD Android Development] ALIEN_:
No need to explain its a known issue for some and not others. My experience is it works in some versions of lords ics and not others.

Hey people, calm down...so many anger because of one simple question...belive me that I tried everything before asking "silly" questions on this forum (yes, also trying to fix APN)...the fact is that sending MMS is one of the basic features on the phone...and if it is not working is not good...
[Desire HD Android Development] jcmaddox1:
Alright, I've done this before but I guess I have to do it again, the Desire HD/Inspire 4G community is better than this, twisted, I love you for your work man, and I realize its a lot of pressure, take your time on it and do things at YOUR pace, anybody who isn't happy with his pace of work needs to shut up and learn to fix it themselves, instead of us all being ungrateful- show a little gratitude. I'm tired of seeing arguments break out in these ICS threads. In case you guys don't know, that aren't devs, ICS IS STILL UNSUPPORTED ON OUR DEVICE this means ITS GOING TO HAVE NONWORKING FEATURES. just wait and be patient, and eventually you will get your wanted features, if its THAT big a deal, fix it yourselves and leave twisted and lord to their own pace, or just revert to gingerbread. Ungrateful people aren't worthy of ICS. Thanks, have a good day/ night.

Edit; I realize this is late by a few posts, but it still applies.
[Desire HD Android Development] breakbystealth:
How many pages have been taken up with the ranting about q and a. I would love to learn so I could give more help and make a positive contribution for others. If anyone feels they would rather spend time giving advice on how to encourage people to gain the skill to help out and be more productive and not just cut them down please feel free to give some advise my way. If more people are willing to learn maybe this is a better solution. More people with limited skill would help. If you have learned to flash roms then you must have an interest in wanting to know more. Maybe if people like myself could be encouraged, this is what you need to learn about and this is a good place to find info or guidance then we can be it a better position to help and stop asking stupid questions.
[Desire HD Android Development] jcmaddox1:
Could you PM me please? I'd like to help out the community as well. We can encourage each other:) I want to get things fixed as much as the next guy- but I think twisted and Lord deserve a break. So I'm going to try and fix a few things myself:P a little help would be nice too

Hi guys!

I have two requests. Two things which are already in sense rom. Maybe also interesting.

When receiving a incoming call, turning the phone will silence the phone

And some sort of super fast boot, where the system is set to the memory. Actually a sleep modus

Let me know what you guys think
[Desire HD Android Development] PDub11:
I've been keeping my eye on this threadfor a a while now, I haven't tried this rom due to its shortfalls but I really think something needs to be done about the development section in general.

The section should be split into stable and development sections to make people understand what the rom is about. I mean, have a look at how many beta ics Roms there are about at then moment all doing pretty much the same thing with the same problems.

Keep up your good work tho chefs.

Patience is a virtue people.

[Desire HD Android Development] Chezbel:
You have a very good point, but I bet most people don't have a clue about how they can help. If this was a company we could just drop by the "smart guy's" office for some advice about what needs to be done.

Some of us have the skill, but not much familiarity with Android and there is always the chance that we will "waste" our time trying to do something that someone else is just about done with.

The other problem is if i (or someone) asks in a thread, especially a popular thread like this one, what needs to be done there is the risk that 10 people will jump on the same thing. perhaps not bad as a learning experience but some will perceive it as a waste of their time. However, it's probably still worth mentioning specific items that you need help with and have people pm for details.
[Desire HD Android Development] HTC_Phone:
Developing Android takes some time, patience, skill, and many other things. Its all about learning, and just taking the time to read valuable threads all over XDA and all over the internet.

Believe me, I wasn't born with the ability to develop Android. However, I was born with an interest in technology. This interest in technology pushed me to further my knowledge in Android, and so I did. I've spent years reading threads and forums and posts and what not. In fact, I STILL do this to this day. I spend time watching other devs, taking apart their work just to see how it works.

Make friends with other devs. Get to know them. We aren't scary people. We're real people just like the rest of you. Some older, some younger (I'm 18, been developing since 15, been learning since 13). Add me on Facebook, Follow me on Twitter. I'm on GTalk, and I'm on Google +. Talk to me. Look at the work that I've done and ask me questions. I will answer your questions and provide any insight that you need.

Best of luck to anyone who wants to take the time and learn to dev. But I will tell you this, you

must

know what you're doing before you just go cooking things.
[Desire HD Android Development] cstayton:
+1 you will find that most of us are willing to share our knowledge I have been a Microsoft .NET developer for many years I started deving for phones when the Samsung Blackjack came out and then for the iphone when it was fresh on the market and most recently with android. And as HTC_Phone said you need to have that basic knowledge first and the drive to see it through to the bitter end. vary rarely does anything go as planned the first time around not even for us who have been around for awhile so don't get discouraged and quit. learn to ask questions and learn who can answer them. You can PM most of us or gtalk either way im on both if you have a question ask if i can answer it i will if not hopefully i'll be able to tell you who can.

[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
I think two things are important to remember as well:

If you don't know look it up. Don't necessarily just ask the specific question, look up everything about the topic. I wanted to add ksm and didn't look up how. I looked up what it was, performance comparisons, other usage, then how to add it.

Don't settle for one answer. There are thousands of opinions on something, so consider all of them for the situation at hand. Look at swap. Some use it and say it's an improvement every time. Others use it and say it always slows things down. It depends on when, how, amount, and configuration. Trial and error doesn't hurt.

Been doing mobile development for about 13 years now and it never fails that there is always room for improvement and never a single way to do something.
[Desire HD Android Development] cstayton:
+1, as long as we are on the subject. one more thing to remember if your just starting out don't try to jump right into coding and building from scratch find a rom for your phone and use the available kitchen tools to pull it apart play around with and learn how things go together. learn to use apktool and smali learn how to add and edit existing apks and such, it goes along ways towards understanding the underlying code behind the OS. And like twisted says "there is always more than one way to skin a cat" i do things quite differently than he or LC do, i don't even use the same platform for building that others use. and yes research goes a long ways towards learning how do something.

First of all i want to say that i really am enjoying this ROM.

But, the longer that i am using it, it is lagging. Drawer lags and so on.

Can anyone tell me what went wrong? I did a full wipe on the Desire HD and did not install anything strange. CPU is up to 1382mhz MAX now.

Thanks.

Voicemail and speed dial set up please

Been a coredroid user for past year but decided to try this rom last nite and must say it is very nice. However need help setting up voice mail and speed dial . any help would be aprreciated.
[Desire HD Android Development] zla.mas:
Test 7 - in log there is BLN, but after I installed it's not showing as option..
[Desire HD Android Development] fishykipper:
Voice mail setting can be found by navigating from 'The Dialer Screen', menu, then settings, then Voicemail settings. Mine (UK Vodafone), were set up automatically, but you may well need to manually setup yours.

Speed dials are enabled by checking the star icon next to the contacts name, in your contacts list, which adds a speed dial contact image to the third tab in the dialer screen.
[Desire HD Android Development] Rdlgrmpf:
BLN has been in RomControl under Led-settings for quite some builds now. What's new is that you can "mute" it in quiet hours and that you can add it as a toggle to status bar.
[Desire HD Android Development] TheBrilliantMistake:
I'm going to be slightly negative now.... (tough job, but needs doing)

Sometimes... just sometimes, it's not always a wise idea for folks to attempt stuff.

Yes you can fix your own car, but leaving it to the professionals might be the best option.

This will sound bad - and it's not meant to... it's just meant to be realistic...

ONE of the problems faced with a plethora of ROMs is that many folks are cooking up some very strange recipes, some of which just aren't healthy, and stand a chance of giving you food poisoning ;-)

It's not a matter of how intelligent you are, just knowing what you do best, and what you don't do best. You can kill your devices playing around with stuff you don't understand (although it's relatively rare).

There are plenty of brain surgeons who wouldn't dream of fixing their car engines, and plenty of mechanics who wouldn't attempt to open up your skull (unless you didn't pay a bill!).

It's really not for everybody :-)

Everything works flawlessly and i love it (except for the videocam which i don;t use always) i just replaced mine from ARHD 7.0.2 to this ROM. the only problem i encounter so far is my VPN connection which works from my previous ROM ARHD GB 2.3.5. Is this a flaw from AOKP 4.0.4....?
[Desire HD Android Development] TheBrilliantMistake:
My honest advice is try Apex launcher. It's 100% free, and highly responsive - ESPECIALLY if you disable the open to 'join drawer tabs'.

voice mail done)) thanx. But speed dial i cant seem to figureout. I kinda wanted it like the coredroid roms where i had set up 8 sped dials on the phone dialer screen and labeled them according to my friends. but on this all i see is when i click on enable fdnit t asks me for pin2. why ?? shouldnt it ask me whose names i want as my 8 speed dialers?? sorry for the thick questions))
[Desire HD Android Development] iPwn_:
7.1test3 was much smoother than 7.1test6. Test 6 had UI choppiness everywhere, even with a full wipe.

Have yet to try 7.2t7.
[Desire HD Android Development] Rdlgrmpf:
One thing I forgot about the toggle:

In order to see it in "active toggles" you may need to change RomControl-locale to english, as it needs to be added for every translation. Currently it's in default (english), german and french.
