ok, I'll wait for whiper to test 17.1 when it finishes uplaoding

also others can test 17 and 17.1
[Desire HD Android Development] Hevlaska:
Could it be just me?

I felt some really significant boost in terms of homescreen responsiveness and scrolls on test17...

Aside from these, so far there isnt any issues yet and everything seems to be working.

Thanks LC for the great work, really appreciate your work.
[Desire HD Android Development] Raymond Ebertt:
Here's an Email sent from stock to Gmail and a Gmail shot confirming receiving it.

Telling you Lord, you made the stock and Gmail workable again.
[Desire HD Android Development] LorD ClockaN:
but why isn't it working for whiper??

maybe if he makes full wipe...
[Desire HD Android Development] zomer331:
I think it's a problem in not-doing a full wipe, becouse if I flashed the test 17 and I don't do wipe I have problem with Facebook, blank page, but of course if I flash BFS kernel all work... I'm going to do full wipe and then check 17.1 test with CFS
[Desire HD Android Development] Raymond Ebertt:
I don't know, and I didn't full wipe this flash. Last full wipe was back around test 12 or 13.

This time I didn't even wipe cache because someone mentioned that the ROM does that anyways.

I really think it could be an issue on where the device was made. A lot of these issues are coming out of North America while Asian devices seem to be ok. Just a thought,,,,,
[Desire HD Android Development] whiperhack:
It didn't worked with first flashing of 17. After flashing 16.1 with new boot.img it worked. I believe that was an error from flashing over. I will try now with test17.1: first over the 16.1 that I have and if doesn't work I will make full wipe.
[Desire HD Android Development] Jal84:
Hi Lord,

Stock email app worked for me too with test 17. Here's what I did:

- Flashed test 17 over test 15.4 (no wipe), everything worked fine after first boot

- Rebooted again, stock email did not work, gmail and stock browser worked ok

- Fixed permissions, and then everything worked ok again

- Rebooted again just in case, no change, everything works ok.
[Desire HD Android Development] Ljunkan:
Test 17.1 facebook and Email works for me.

Fullwipe

*everyting seems to work after reboot aswell*
[Desire HD Android Development] whiperhack:
No full wipe:

Test 17.1 all works. So I think that I had a problem when flashing over. Sorry that I putted you on work.
[Desire HD Android Development] xnrs:
test 17.1 without wipe

all works for me..
[Desire HD Android Development] tristate:
Test 17.1 - full wipe

stock email (exchange) works

after setup device and reboot

@190dpi, ...

stock mail shows no content! :-(

find no satellite with faster europe gps fix :-(

testing... device is wiped :-)
[Desire HD Android Development] wtr_dhd:
Love the feedback and constant updating in this topic. Time to flash the latest test who seems to be working well ;-)
[Desire HD Android Development] LorD ClockaN:
ok, so 17.1 works, but currently I'm more interested if test17 works, because I had to revert something from 17 to 17.1, but I would like go get that back...

so if the guys with working 17.1 can test 17 PLEASE! :)

edit:

yes, community is great here!
[Desire HD Android Development] p2pjack:
Test 17 did not work for me at first until I cleaned the email Gmail and Facebook cache and then reboot and all worked then :D
[Desire HD Android Development] whiperhack:
Just flashed again test17 without full wipe over test 17.1. Is booting now.... I'll come back with feedback in 2-3 minutes.

All works. (Bad flash before).
[Desire HD Android Development] tristate:
test 17.1 @190dpi stock mail is white again! only me?
[Desire HD Android Development] sashank:
7.5 Test 17 looking good for final!

7.5 test 17 with kernel 9.8.1 CFS:

Facebook, Email, Gmail, Browser working perfectly for me. They were working fine since test 15 with CFS but occasional white screen was there. I haven't noticed it yet now. Can't test Netflix as it isn't available in my country. No full wipe since first time install of 7.4 test 7 ;) and I'm at 190 DPI (@tristate).

I agree. With test 16 and especially with test 17 + 9.8.1 CFS I'm experiencing super smooth performance. Apex runs very smooth, menus open up fast, apps open and exit very fast with hardly any lag. The lags were a bit more before test 16. Maybe this is placebo effect, maybe not, but it feels awesome right now. :)

Looking good for final now. I'd say LC should make this final and chill out for sometime. Awesome work! :cool:
[Desire HD Android Development] tristate:
loading test 17 ... strange at 240 all was fine... anyone testet gps?

Test 17 190 DPI - All works, some troubles with FB but just clearing app cache worked like a charm.

Of course I'll continue... whit what else would I fill my sleepless nights?? :)
[Desire HD Android Development] claude96:
@LC sorry to ask LC, but if all your mods since test_17 are in boot.img, why not just upload a flashable zip with the new boot.img instead of the complete rom, it could save a lot of time ( just a thought )
[Desire HD Android Development] LorD ClockaN:
only one change in boot.img

and it's since test17 in it.. other test versions are updating /changing other stuff
[Desire HD Android Development] grzesiek1945:

Right, test_18 it is, also is full wipe a must ! , just so you can have more accurate results from every one !, for your final version that is.

[Desire HD Android Development] fixxxer667:
Barely a minute or so since upload was complete, since I don't have my dhd attached via USB to the blackice server, grabbing and testing in 15'.

16 + BFS (all ok) -> 17.1 stock CFS w/o wipe =

Gmail displays mail right until you scroll through message content, and everything turns white O_o.

Lessee what 18 has in store. Will try without and with full wipe.
[Desire HD Android Development] whiperhack:
@LC - All working ok in test18 no full wipe.

I can confirm too

[Desire HD Android Development] Houz74:
Glad I'm the bringer of good news now.

Flashed test18 on top of test16.1, without wiping or clearing program data.

The stock email is still blank, but after Fixing Permissions in 4Ext all is well.

Trying a reboot now.

[edit]

After a reboot stock email is still like it should be.
[Desire HD Android Development] zomer331:
Okey, for me to, everything looks like works perfectly, but we have just to w8 and check new rom realese if there is any problem.

I hope NOT!

So don't find any bug. ;D <small joke>

Anyone has issues with background sync'ing/push not working on mobile data ?

If i'm on 3G, i don't receive gmails until i go into the app and force a refresh... the network bars are GREY instead of BLUE, but internet works! :D

If i connect to any wifi, sync is back again... all bars (wifi and cell) turn blue...

This started on 16.1, flashing 17 (with cache cleaning, permissions fixing etc) didn't solve it... gonna try 18 now... see if i can fix it.
[Desire HD Android Development] alchopop:
I'm downloading test 18. Going to full wipe and not restore apps until everything is confirmed to work! Watch this space.

Do I need to do anything else before I report my experience?
[Desire HD Android Development] neo.power:
flash test_18 from test 17.1 ??
[Desire HD Android Development] wtr_dhd:
Been fiddling around with test 17.1 for the past 2-3 hours, restored sms + all apps, tested applications (browser, mail, facebook, 3D aps), all works like a charm and rather smooth.

The only thing I noticed were some artifacts @ the dock icons when I quickly slided up and down the notification menu, but this only happened once or twice, I seem to be unable to reproduce this now.. was maybe bad coincidence :)
[Desire HD Android Development] Timoooo:
Hey Lord I have a request for a little feature...

You know how when you go to settings > sounds > Quiet hours you can set quiet hours.. Could you add a function that restricts that to ertain days? For example I wanna have quiet hours from 22-7 fromk Monday through Friday, dont want them Friday and Saturday night tho...

Would be great!
[Desire HD Android Development] Ljunkan:
Test 18 cant get my 3G to work.the meter is grey and no E or 3g icon. And i have no network mening i cant surf.

But everyting els work if i use wifi.

I tryied 2 full wipes and 2 flashes.

The 3g workt in test 17.1
[Desire HD Android Development] whiperhack:
I flashed from test 17 but I think that is ok to flash from any version to test 18.

Try to put phone in airplane mod and then deactivate airplane mode. Test cellular data after this.
[Desire HD Android Development] neilfairall:
With test 18, everything seems to work except for Netflix, which continues to present the black screen of death I'm afraid.
[Desire HD Android Development] wtr_dhd:
I just noticed I got the same problem, although here in test 17.1...
[Desire HD Android Development] semdoc:
+1. It would be great :)
[Desire HD Android Development] ___m0d_:
I can confirm that this will only happen on full wipe. As for me, apn list was blank and I had no data. Fortunately for me though my carrier has no complicated settings to configure. Just got to add apn name and save and I'm good to go. For the rest, you might need to configure it.

Those that flash over might/might not retain data configurations.

I pretty sure I speak this for the rest that have been around since the stone age of these rom that there isn't a fix for video record yet. :D
[Desire HD Android Development] Timoooo:
Yeah.. No I wont pay $6.50 for that.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
use llama.... much much much easier to configure, does the same (for 99% of the suers) and is free. if you like it you can buy later a donation app (no difference to free version) to support the dev. i think it is only 1euro but as i said, full version is free.

edit: forgot to mention: i use it myself and i tested a lot of similar apps. i use it to change audio settings, bluetooth, gps and some other things dpending on location, time, day and even depending on a running calendar event (e.g. i have a doctor date running then it puts phone on silence).
[Desire HD Android Development] _Man0waR_:
All seems fine then :) Video recording with the stock camera never worked and I doubt it's going to work until we get the official ICS release from HTC. (And probably the kernel source for AOSP based roms).
[Desire HD Android Development] Shonan_:
ok sorry if i come across wrong, i didnt mean for it to come across as if i was popping at lord cos i wasnt, i have bin on this rom since 1.4, and love this rom, i think in my tired state after long shift iv got my self confused wif the panoramic,

Could not attach in a PM so i'll leave it here... file is in /system/etc
[Desire HD Android Development] Chrisj7:
Can i just flash this on 18? Do i need to atleast mount something? Or do i need to extract and replace a file? Thanks.
[Desire HD Android Development] pchtc:
its a replacement file for your apns-conf.xml

as mentioned it is found in /system/etc

you should push it to the phone using adb

copy the file and unzip it to your androidsdk\tools folder

run the following

adb remount

adb push apns-conf.xml /system/etc

thats it

your done
[Desire HD Android Development] Timoooo:
Let's put it this way: would you pay 7 for dollars for an app that changes something automatically that you could change with 3 clicks?

But if you wanna see it that way... Then yeah, you got it right.
[Desire HD Android Development] daedric:
Or replace the .xlm in the test18, and reflash it. Only that file will be different, you won't (shouldn't) feel a thing :)
[Desire HD Android Development] LorD ClockaN:
How did apn file got missing??

That is strange tbh..

Continuing with my previous post (still on test 17), Video Editor (Movie Studio) works fine too. Now I can add videos and it won't revert to the main screen of the app. But I have this strange issue, I can't find Sound Recorder in my app drawer. SoundRecorder.apk is there in /system/app with the right permissions but it doesn't show up in app drawer of any of the 3 included launchers. It's there in Settings>Apps>All though, but the app icon isn't showing in any launcher or in Google Search. I've hardly used this so I didn't notice it, but I remember a few test versions ago I used it and it was there in the app drawer. Can you guys please check in app drawer and report if you're seeing this too?
[Desire HD Android Development] hadobac:
Nah, never noticed it. I recommend Easy Voice Recorder though, works like a charm!
[Desire HD Android Development] ___m0d_:
Or you can do how I always do if you have root explorer .extract and move file to the right folder. Before pasting , I usually check the permission and owner of files that I wanna modify/replace.

I have replaced the file but still no 3g =( test 17.1

i gues it works for you guys?
[Desire HD Android Development] EmptyArea:
+1 on this method, as I'm often away from my PC. Use ES Explorer, free & simples.

Also, as there's apn chatter, I use a modified file that only has my networks apns in. It's the only way to get my mms working. (orange UK)

Ooh and I just levee it I'm my overlay folder.
[Desire HD Android Development] leeston2379:
any chance you could post it. My mms is playing me up.
[Desire HD Android Development] wtr_dhd:
Me too I had to fill in the APN settings (test 17.1) to get my mobile data working. Also I experience that my network signal is displayed grey, unless when I put mobile data or wifi on then it's blue. I tested to make a call with data/wifi OFF (so network signal strength icon being grey) and it worked.

What's the point then of the network strength being displayed grey or blue if my calls are working anyways ?
[Desire HD Android Development] ___m0d_:
Blue as I know it is if you're connected on google's server
[Desire HD Android Development] ___m0d_:
Weather panel working for me in status bar. Full wiped as always on test 18 and on every other test.
[Desire HD Android Development] wtr_dhd:
And then again what has phone signal network strength to do with google's server I wonder ?
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
on previous android version there was one symbol for mobile data and another for the phone signal strength. but because this two were merged here you get that color coding for the google server connection on the phone signal icon.

quite logic, isn't it?
[Desire HD Android Development] ___m0d_:
Did you go to settings, under more, mobile network, access point names, press menu and restore to default after you replaced the old apn lust with the one posted and it should appear. Maybe on extra step is to go to airplane mode switch it on and off or reboot. As for me, my network requires WCDMA only and it works fine .

Everything seems to be fine...

* 3G working fine

Can't test netflix - unavailable in my country..

Good Job LC.... Thank you & Greetz :)
[Desire HD Android Development] Raymond Ebertt:
@Lord

Not sure if everyone is experiencing the same problem as me, but here goes the story.

I reported that Facebook works great. That is when I am using Wifi. When I'm using data connection, 2 or 3G, I get the problem that has been reported, white screen. I can see data on Facebook only if I drag the top refresh notification panel down, but the data disappears again.

However, if I'm on Wifi, there is no issue at all.

Could it be an issue with data connection?
[Desire HD Android Development] matteo100nze:
@Lord, are we near to final version?
[Desire HD Android Development] fixxxer667:
Raymond: full wipe or plain flash?

flash over 17.1 here (no wipe) resolves the gmail/fb/email white screen issue, tested on both mobile data and wifi.

Other than 2 random restarts (which seem to happen every now and then with my dhd and cfs kernels), test 18 passes with flying colours, performance and issue wise, will report on battery life later, but seems good so far

(5h, *everything* (gps/bt/wlan/sync) on, some usage = 83%).
[Desire HD Android Development] daedric:
Same issue... on mobile data, the bars would be grey. Gmail push wouldn't work. I had to open the app and force a sync.

On wifi though, both the Wifi bars and the Cellphone bars became blue as expected, and sync was working perfectly.

I have to stop testing this for a while, but i'll keep a eye on this thread ;)

<OFFTOPIC> BTW, CM7.2 RC3 released </OFFTOPIC>
[Desire HD Android Development] Ljunkan:
Thanks that did the trick!!
[Desire HD Android Development] b1ue:
Only issue I seem to be having is that gmail push notifications aren't working correctly...I'm not notified of any new mail until I open the app and sync it myself (sometimes I'm notified but it's extremely late..)

this is happening on both mobile data and wifi connections...

Full wipe on test18 with stock kernel
[Desire HD Android Development] TUN_SD:
try to clear app data. Gmail is a B..... sometimes. I had those issues sometimes too. emails not send and sync isn´t working.
[Desire HD Android Development] b1ue:
I've cleared the app data several times...and I'll instantly get a notification if I have a new message...but after that it screws up again lol:p
[Desire HD Android Development] pchtc:
you will have to get the settings for your provider and manually enter them

a quick google search should reveal them

what is your mobile provider?
[Desire HD Android Development] TUN_SD:
mmh, thats weird! that was the only thing I thought about, bc I´d similar problems sometimes!

somethings happen to build I guess, like LorD these days said: ...chasing ghosts...:eek:
[Desire HD Android Development] pchtc:
if your mobile data icon is not blue

then you don't have a full active connection

re-verify your apn settings

remove and re-create the connection if everything looks ok and is still not working

sometimes turning airplane mode on then off will also fix it

if not reboot can fix it too
[Desire HD Android Development] Ljunkan:
allready fixed but thanks any way
[Desire HD Android Development] LorD ClockaN:
so is everything working or not?

I can't fix something if you guys with blank emails don't post logcats...

As u all who follow this issue know, PPTP and VPN not work.

There is some kind of solution for that.

VPNRoot is free app, u can find it on market and it work.

I merged the appropriate changes to another branch to easily compile with that mod, but let's wait how it goes with this version first

so don't worry, the MOD will come, just don't know if today or on monday
