Hi!

I'm thinking of trying this rom soon, your quadrant benchmarks caught my eye, how do you make to have such a high scores with it? I never could get below the mininum with any kind of rom :S
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
it is just the settings you choose i used the lagfree govrenor with min 245mhz-1190mhz. the i/o score is do to the d2ext if you need details pm me and ill tell you how i have it set
[Desire Android Development] tihimasmo:
Just started using bt after a long while without. I can only hear phone call if I'm the one calling. Not if I answer.

Anybody?
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
thanks for the heads up i will test it tomorrow during the day.

anybody else experiencing this?
[Desire Android Development] tihimasmo:
Tested on mildwild 5.0 (same base) and experienced the same issue. Tried with wife's bt of the same model to no avail.

Sony Ericsson MW600, one of the most common bt headsets.
[Desire Android Development] jayallen1980:
Which version kernel is in the new rom. Is it 1.3? On cdma
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
yes both gsm and cdma rom have the 1.3 kernel included
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
i am looking into it ive just bin very busy
[Desire Android Development] tihimasmo:
Man...

I finally found out the reason for malfunctioning bluetooth. Been on it like a betatester for days now. It was a call recording app that was in conflict with the bt device. I installed skvalex's recording app instead and everything works.

Sorry for causing a stir about this.
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
big thanks for taking the time to find that out :)
[Desire Android Development] kostelo:
Just a quick question. I am planning to flash the kernel in Mildwild 5.0 that I m using, but I would like to know are there any major differences between your kernel and Manu kernel? I mean they both claim to be battery efficient but are they different in anything else apart from the cpu governors? thanks in advance and thanks also for your efforts.
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
yes the main differences are the cpu freq table, csw hack (fix usb transfer speed), govrenors, and my kernel is 2.6.35.14 not .13
[Desire Android Development] siavash2death:
hello.i installed euroskank rom with your kernel and i ask you if you can check that what features of that rom includes in the default kernel that i missed for installing another kernel.i hope you figured it out what i mean.sorry for my bad english.
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
i am unsure i have not tried his rom before the features of my kernel are posted in the OP and you will have to ask him what the features of his kernel are
[Desire Android Development] siavash2death:
can you make your kernel to turn off the phone when it reaches 0-1 percent,not 15 percent?
[Desire Android Development] tihimasmo:
There is an app to teach your phone to do that. It's called something with nexus and battery. Search market and you get link to instructions there.
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
mine shuts off at 0%, i will look into it if it is a kernel issue ill fix it for kernel 1.4

edit: did you wipe your battery stats ?
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
has anyone else noticed your phone shuts off at 15%
[Desire Android Development] blackhawk_LA:
It's not kernel related; you need to calibrate your battery with the Nexus One battery calibrator app. It's also compatible with most HTC Desire ROMs
[Desire Android Development] tihimasmo:
I confirm it is compatible with this ROM.
[Desire Android Development] evilpharmacist:
I've been using version 1.0.2 from when it came out. All went well and I'm using the philosophy "don't fix it, if it ain't broken", so I didn't install later versions.

Last week though, I started getting "package file is invalid" messages while trying to update apps like Maps, WhatsApp, Google+ etc...

Removing cache from the Google Play and Downloadmanager app, and erasing cache+dalvik from within recovery, works for a few updates and then I start getting this message again...

This also coincides with my phone randomly shutting down, only possible to revive after battery removal.

Is this a known bug? Will updating to 1.0.5 fix it?
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
no not that i have experienced i would update to 1.0.5 and i think you will be fine
[Desire Android Development] evilpharmacist:
Thanks croniccorey.

Updating 1.0.2 to 1.0.5, should I do a full wipe?
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
yes you should
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
i am currently working on a kernel and i will try to work this in and test it if i can
[Desire Android Development] marius.a:
Thank your for fast reply and support :)
[Desire Android Development] sp00f77:
Hi croniccorey, thanks for this rom, been looking for a cm7 based rom for a while that just does what it does.

I know there are a few good roms out there (mildwild for example), but I got sick & tired of all these implementing - as default - the hideously dark ICS theme!

(and didn't feel much for tweaking a base CM7 myself :rolleyes: )

So far, I'm a happy puppy.
[Desire Android Development] Yannn:
Wahouuuu, a new good rom !!!

In the kernel development could you please add 2 way call recording possibility ?!?

Hope you can ...

Best regards
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
I am gonna try to add this in the next kernel thanks for using my rom
[Desire Android Development] ant130979:
I am really impressed with this rom certainly best performing asop gingerbread using with alpha kernel on cm7r2 hboot,
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
thanks glad you like it
[Desire Android Development] agismaniax:
launcherpro has not been updated, why not use another launcher (e.a. golauncher, adwlauncher)?
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
you have the choice to install launcher2, launcher pro, or adwlauncher on install in 1.0.2 and the same in 1.0.1 except no launcher2
[Desire Android Development] Yannn:
I know 3g drain more battery than 2g and H it's worst... is there a way to automaticaly down to 2G to listen the wire, get file or message when screen be off and up to 3G or H when screen be on ?

it could give us more battery life, no ?
[Desire Android Development] derickwee:
hey croniccorey, well done on ur new rom. been using mildwild rom, tested 1.0.1 and its great except for the file manager which prefer to be ES file manager as the current one failed to bluetooth. once again, great job you did :)
[Desire Android Development] KaspaII:
Juice defender BETA + AOSP Helper can switch after set timeout from 3G to 2G...
[Desire Android Development] tihimasmo:
If I choose launcher pro at install, do I still need to buy launcher pro key to use the widgets?
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
only the people widget works other widgets and the themes do not untill you buy the key
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
thanks i will try out es file manager and if it works nicely i will add it to my next rom
[Desire Android Development] evilpharmacist:
Hi, this is the first time I flashed an alternate ROM on my Desire.

I have a few questions though.

What is the difference between data2ext, app2sd and a2sd?

You've chosen for data2ext, but it doesn't seem to work for me.

I made an EXT partition from within recovery, and selected that I had one during installation of your ROM, but I still see my internal memory going down quickly when installing apps...

Any ideas?
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
data2ext mounts your /ext as /data and gets rid of overhead also doubles i/o proformance if you cant get it to work then there is a problem with your partitioning, your ext has to be ext4 not 3 or 2 they wont work also it needs to have the following layout "1st partition: fat32, 2nd partition: ext4, and if you wish to use swap then 3rd partition : swap" i have fully tested this and have had no problems so please make sure you have the proper partitioning i would also recommend that you use the latest 4ext touch recovery

edit: apps2sd/a2sd uses symlinks and bindmounts so it is slower then data2ext by a fare bit

edit: if data2ext is installed correcty the internal storage will show the size of your ext and will go down as you install apps
[Desire Android Development] evilpharmacist:
Thanks for your quick reply.

Can I still use Gparted to do any changes to the partition, or will I have to reinstall the ROM again?

Or will I only have to reinstall any apps I already installed so that their data is moved to the sd card?
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
gparted sould work fine "make sure your ext is the 2nd partition with 64kb stripe size" without reinstalling but if you find that does not work then you sould just reinstall rom and make sure you do a full wipe to i have found that if dalvik is not wiped before installing data2ext it can cause problems somtimes
[Desire Android Development] tihimasmo:
Nope. Just tried it. One widget only is free, people widget. The one I want the least.

You owe me 15 minutes of my life, buddy :p
[Desire Android Development] blackhawk_LA:
Could you please post the changelog? Thanks!
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
i will start posting them for the kernel, the big changes are 1) optimized/rewrote the freq/voltage table for stability 2) made a few tweaks to the savagedzen and smart*ss govs and removed the lazy gov

thats about it for this update enjoy

edit: ChangeLogs are now attached to the OP
[Desire Android Development] buchman:
Cheers, trying the updated kernel now.
[Desire Android Development] Robi959:
Please, can you upload again CM7 FONT ?
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
its in the OP under extras
[Desire Android Development] blackhawk_LA:
Hi, I want to try your kernel on MIUI, but I want to disable compcache as I think my Desire run smoother without it.

I don't know if it's enabled by default in the kernel, or should I add something like

to my build.prop

Thanks!
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
it is enabled by the build.prop you could add that line to the prop and it will disable it or you can remove it with the instructions below

you can remove the drivers also if you want it gone for good to do this extract the kernel zip and navigate to system>lib>modules then deleate the compcache folder. after that re zip the kernel and flash
[Desire Android Development] siavash2death:
hello,croniccorey. I flashed your kernel alongside euroskank rom. today I saw Sometimes screen turns on,sudenly. how can I solve this problem?
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
is there any triggers causing this that you can see, and could you link me the rom and ill test it out and see if i get the issue aswell
[Desire Android Development] siavash2death:

GPS issue

Hello guys, I really like this ROM but the GPS does not work! Do you have any idea to solve the problem? thanks:confused:
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
Ok what is your issue exactly does GPS not lock or not turn on?

What country are you in?

Please answer and I will try to figure out what problem you are having
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
Heads up to all cronmodkernel is on Github Now :D
[Desire Android Development] broczkymary:
Croniccorey Hello, thanks for your time.

I'm in Italy.

GPS does not work in the sense that once you turn you can not use the following applications:

1) Sygic Navigator 11.2.6

2) SportyPal v1.7.7

3) GPS Status v3.8.1
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
i will send you a flashable gps config tomorrow and hopefully that will help
[Desire Android Development] gafi:
Cannot download. Any mirrors for GSM version?
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
If you are trying from your phone and it wont work then try via your PC.

I will check the links

Edit: Dev host is down for service at the moment should be back up soon

Edit2: Dev host is back online
[Desire Android Development] broczkymary:
Thank you very much!

---------- Post added at 11:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:15 AM ----------

Thank you very much!:good: :good:
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
i have attached a flashable gps.conf to this message give it a try and hopefully you wont have anymore issues
[Desire Android Development] broczkymary:
Thanks, today after work I'll try to reflash the rom and let you know if it works!

* See you later!

Mary:laugh:
[Desire Android Development] broczkymary:
thank you so much!!!!

Croniccorey are great, thank you so much!

The GPS patch seems to work! I have yet to try Sygic, but satteliti takes them!

Hello Mary :victory: :victory: :good:
[Desire Android Development] blackhawk_LA:
I have made a PDroid patch for 1.0.6 . I used 1.31 version because the latest gave me some errors.

http://www.multiupload.nl/MYDA64AA0F
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
Awesome I will add it to the op with credit thank you
[Desire Android Development] Chillkroete_:
Nice work mate - flashed it yesterday and looks like it will be my new daily ROM :D

One strange thing, but not sure if it was my mistake - I had 20% battery, and my mobil shutdown. After plugin the cable and reboot, it was on 0%.

So we will see if it happend again :D

One question left - how did you get 2700 points on Quadrant ? :D
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
You may need to calibrate your battery and I used lagfree with the CPU at 1190mhz Max and d2ext

Those scores are from the io score witch since the new script it wont read like that as quadrant tests the /data/data folder witch with the new int2ext it leaves that on internal and the scores read lower even tho it is faster

Lockscreen

Is there anyone else who is having problems with the lockscreen? I have checked every option but can't make my phone lock. When I push the power button the screen turns black, but when I want to wake him up again my desktop appaers without passing a lockscreen...

Anyone knows the answer to this ridiculous question??
[Desire Android Development] kostelo:
Just a quick post to thank you for your great kernel. Just moved from manu kernel to yours and combined with the latest cm7 nightly works like a charm. Keep up the good work.
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
I haven't had any issues myself is the lock screen disabled under tablet tweaks?
[Desire Android Development] tsrodger:
Unfortunately, My phone couldn't boot after applying this patch (hangs up on bootanimation), so I've to recover from Nandroid backup. Does anybody else try to use this patch?
[Desire Android Development] blackhawk_LA:
Sorry, I forgot to post the Restore zip.

http://www.multiupload.nl/ZXX41OP7NB

Anyway, for me it's working with no problem at all... :S
[Desire Android Development] Chillkroete_:
Which gouvernor should i use for best battery life?

ATM i use smartassV2

Thx
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
I use lagfree
[Desire Android Development] miguelitu:
Hey, thank you for your work

I tried your rom before and I was pleased, but I'm a rom addicted, so I changed what I'm running quite often.

I always kept an eye here and I believe that the last version look quite interesting and could be the rom where I would settle down ;p

But for some reason It is not working on my Desire GSM.

I already wiped everything loads of time, reformatted the SD card more than once and even reflashed cm7 hboot and still nothing.

Any thoughts?

Thank you

EDIT: when I say it doesn't work I mean it stays on the initial HTC splash, not even getting to the boot animation.
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
first thing to do is make sure your partitions are good. what recovery do you use? (i recommend 4ext)

second i would try a different kernel just in case thats the issue one of those two things will fix your boot
[Desire Android Development] blackhawk_LA:
Maybe there's a problem with the latest kernel, I tried using it in MIUI and it didn't boot. If I had time, I'll try it again and see if I can have any logcat or kmsg
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
Ok I am looking into it I think it has to do with the .14 patch if there is anyone that can help please send a PM to me

This issue only affects some desires.

To fix flash a different kernel
[Desire Android Development] mda17:
rоm is very good, but there is a problem with the gps, gps disconnected every 2 minute
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
Ok I will link you a zip to fix it later tonight
[Desire Android Development] Solid_Lynx:
can't get 1.0.6 up after flashing it

Hey guys,

Nice to be back :)

I'm sitting on 1.0.3 for last 3 months or so and I'm happy with it, but I was curious enough to try 1.0.6. Unfortunately after flashing it and rebooting the Desire does not pass the initial HTC screen.

I've reflashed it several times and wiped everything, no change.

Now back to 1.0.3, which works great.

So, 3 small questions

- anything I can do to go forward with 1.0.6, or just need to wait for a while?

- the GPS fix posted to this thread a bit earlier - can I use it for 1.0.3?

- why do you guys in London look at your Desires instead of watching the Olympics? :)

Best regards,

Greg

PS. In the meantime I've got a free Galaxy S II for the extension of my mobile contract, but it can't compete with the Desire, so it was demoted to the backup solution
[Desire Android Development] Lonely_Boz:
Hello, I want to test this rom, but I've 2 questions.

1) is it really necessary to create swap for int2ext? Therefore, I must format and repartition my scard, right?

2) what does it mean, CMTD?

Gesendet von meinem HTC Desire mit Tapatalk 2
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
Hey there

-GPS fix will work for all versions of the rom

-it is a kernel issue on some desires just change the kernel to this one http://d-h.st/WAJ

- lol

PM me if you want to test the upcoming kernel when it is ready

Cheers man
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
- no swap is optional you only need a ext partition for init2ext

- CMTD 'Custom MTD' meaning resized partitions of your phone with the cmtd flashable zip (Google "CMTD by firerat" if you want to know more)
[Desire Android Development] miguelitu:
I had tried repartition before, using latest 4ext but that didn't help.

then I flashed manu kernel, and now it's working.

wonder what could be?
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
There's a kernel link in the OP for any1 with boot issues

TB

Hi,

Each time i want to restore TB applications, the app freeze. Only with this rom. any idea ?
[Desire Android Development] jozef710i:
Hi i dont have this problem

I have cm7r2 hboot and INT2EXT +
[Desire Android Development] Droidxda:
ok, i ll continue to look after this problem

Edit - ok. I let the playstore made the restore, and apply TB data over.

It works, but I don't know why :D

So it's ok for me. Thanks you
[Desire Android Development] Droidxda:
swap

Hi,

when i check the RAM i don't see the 256 Mo swap added, is it normal ? how can i check the swap is activated ?

and i checked the swapon

swapon: /dev/block/mmcblk0p2: Invalid argument

swapon: /dev/block/mmcblk0p3: Device or resource busy

swapon: can't stat '/dev/block/mmcblk0p4': No such file or directory

My swap partition is mmcblk0p3, I suppose i can delete the others entry in the fstab ?
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
yes if you want they are there just so it will find it no matter where it is.

to check your swap in adb shell type "free" and it will list ram and swap
[Desire Android Development] _schoba_:
Thanks you for your fast and nice rom, works like a charm!

only the gps fix doesn't work for me, any suggestion?

I am interested in what's the reason why some people have to flash your old 1.2 CrodModKernel to get a booting device.

What other kernels are recommended for this rom?
[Desire Android Development] Droidxda:
This is the link for the GPS-Patch

I don't use other kernel, the cronmod is really nice and so efficient (my idea)
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
I am having a very hard time finding the problem and I have no 1 to help maybe you could look at my git and see if you can see the problem it is an issue caused by the 2.6.35.13-14 patch. Thanks for the GPS patch link
[Desire Android Development] Droidxda:
How can I help you? This patch fix all my gps problems.

Did you see the new release of cm7 :D tonight?
[Desire Android Development] mda17:
I can not help the GPS-Patch, just replace the kernel
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
Yes I am updating my source for 1.0.7
[Desire Android Development] Droidxda:
Hello,

i note a probleme tonight, when charging my desire on AC, it use usb charging.

[Desire Android Development] tihimasmo:
It's pretty easy to change bootanimation. Look at uot-kitchen for some guidance.

My desire is away for repairs for a number of weeks. I have an x10 mini meanwhile :(. Hope for a nice update off this mod when I get my desire back with a new mainboard, cam and flash.
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
The new cronmodkernel is in dev and should fix boot issues if you want to help or check out the source view my github
[Desire Android Development] Droidxda:
Hi,

On the first OP, i just see your git repo for the kernel, could you give us the link pls.

[Desire Android Development] jozef710i:
Hi croniccorey. Can u make this Rom based on Oxygen?? ( I WANT ONLY HTC SETTING ICONS. I don't neeed a2sd also special setting only Settings HTC icons. Please
[Desire Android Development] Droidxda:
Why? What is the interest?
[Desire Android Development] robertsu:
Do we need to flash CronModKernel 1.5 RC?
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
it is included
[Desire Android Development] jozef710i:
Its only for me :) :):):)

Or can someone tell me where are settings icons located. I can try change them myself.
[Desire Android Development] Droidxda:
Ok. :D do do you try the uot kitchen? I think there is a sense icons pack.
[Desire Android Development] jozef710i:
No sense icon pack on uot:(

I installed this rom but its stuck on boot and does not go further.

I installed the kernel it recommened, but still no joy.

It did work with the older 1.2 kernel that was linked previously to the post, but now that link seems to be updated with the 1.6 version and that dont work.

Anyone else with same prob?
[Desire Android Development] Droidxda:
No problem for me

Try wipe all.

Install the ROM

Install the last kernel

Reboot

If you think the boot is too long, plug your usb cable, and launch dbdms on the sdk if you have it. That's just to help the debugging :D
[Desire Android Development] croniccorey:
Testers confirm boot fixed but I will link you the 1.2 kernel if you have issues
