Remember you're not just running ICS, but rather a heavily modified MIUI ICS on a device that Android v4 was never intended to be run on...

No offence, but if you want the latest features, then use this. If you want a stable phone, then stick to GB. :)

I have to disagree with you slightly on some of your points here. GParted (or any other Linux-based partition tools for that matter) is only needed to create the partitions, it really doesn't matter whether or not you use Recovery to format the partitions once they're created.

Restoring from GB does also have it's dangers, but from personal experience I can say any user apps backed up from MIUI GB can be restored to MIUI ICS including their data without any problem.

This is just my three cents' worth though... :)
[Desire Android Development] marange:
Hi,

Very strange. I never had a problem with receiving phone calls. After the initial install, do you switch themes ? Restore system apps ? Running some "exotic" app ?

Another thing to look at is the SD-card. Sometimes when the SD-card has an issue, it can give issues.

Sadly these kind of trouble is very difficult to figure out why it does something like this. To get a logcat when random reboots occur is almost impossible. But I do think that it is something local to your phone (otherwise more people will have reported it ;) ).

Sorry I cannot help more.

Marange
[Desire Android Development] wabudiak:
Thank you for your reply, I did not repartition my SD card I just did format from the mount option for the /system, /boot, /data, and EXT, also I did not restore anything from GB.

Regarding the governor I am following Marange recommendation.

---------- Post added at 05:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:49 PM ----------

Thank you Marange for your quick response, what I did after the second fresh install was just install 360 launcher ( I am using this since Jan with Miui AU and previous Marange Roms), I even did not install Dialer one which I am using since Jan. with Miui AU ICS. and I am using your ROM since the first release and never had this issue.
[Desire Android Development] marange:
Aha. Didn't know you already used the ROM before. I thought it was a fresh install :).

Then it is a complete mystery why it doesn't work. I am thinking about it, but cannot think about anything what could cause this. Only thing is an SD-card issue or a "rogue" app. One thing you could do (as a test), is to do a factory reset (make sure to make an nand backup first and a miui/titanium backup of the ROM) and install the ROM. Do not install apps yet, but see if it is stable then. If it is stable, you can start to restore user apps, one by one and see if the problem reappears (or did you try that already ?).

Marange

Btw. Look at the logcat after a reboot. See if there is some information at the start of the logcat about your SD-card. I know I did have some trouble some time ago, and I needed to reformat the second partition to solve it.
[Desire Android Development] wabudiak:
I already did the factory reset and not installing any apps.

attached the logcat for the boot.

Patch FR

Hi everyone,

Patch FR for 2.6.15 : http://uploadhero.com/dl/lkvHHBHE
[Desire Android Development] marange:
So no joy there. I looked at the logcat and did not see any strange SD-card issues there. So ... I am very sorry ... but I have no clue why the ROM is giving you so much trouble. Only thing which can help is a logcat when the reboot occurs. Btw... do you use shaky's kernel ? What happens when you switch back to the stock kernel ? Or another kernel ? Just make sure to select another governor so that a BSOD is not interfering.

Marange
[Desire Android Development] wabudiak:
Thank you Marange for your effort, I am using Shaky's Kernel.

I came across a post on another forum for someone who faced such an issue and he solve it by switching to Performance governer, which I did few hours ago. I will test it and update with the status.

Appreciating your help and excellent work.

Preview Screens - Pinch to see All Screens Functions

Really Like this ROM, I must say thank you for your time and effort.

I Have question regarding viewing my screens.

I know when you press Menu button there is the preview option , which when selected lets you view all your screens.

In this ROM I am not able to do this via the Pinch method, is this a known issue , or is it just a fault that I am encountering.
[Desire Android Development] fangthorn:
I may be wrong, but I think the pinch option was a MIUI-Gingerbread option - which was based on Cyanogenmod. MIUI 4 is based purely on ICS and therefore has lost some functionality. I think they are gradually adding things back in. So a future version may have the pinch back again.
[Desire Android Development] sjmcinness:
It's more likely to be a launcher feature. I use Zeam Launcher, which brings up the preview when I double-tap anywhere on any of the home screens.

I guess the MIUI ICS launcher doesn't do it or the setting is disabled by default or hidden away.
[Desire Android Development] chezidec:
I can definitely use the gesture (on stock launcher) to get into the preview to add widgets. It's only quite sensitive between scrolling and the gesture.

On another note, I can't download bigger apps (50 MB) from the market. If I clean the device cache, the download continues longer before I get an error message stating insufficient internal space.

But I'm using the LD2X (sp?) variant with an 1.5gb ext4 partition which has plenty of free space left.

Does anyone know where the market cache is located? I'd like to look into it via root explorer...
[Desire Android Development] noonamer:
what hboot ur are used?

look at this, all hboot maximum had 40mb cache, and there was ur trouble

u can make this

write into terminal this

su
rm -rf /cache/download
mkdir /data/local/download
chmod 777 /data/local/download
ln -s /data/local/download /cache/download

something like this
[Desire Android Development] littlenano:
Where can i find shaky's kernel zip?

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] chezidec:
Thank you for your reply, I'm using the stock hboot.

I thought the ROM had a symlinked market cache by default, but I'll look into your commands and do it myself.
[Desire Android Development] fangthorn:
My apologies, you are correct, I've just tried it again, and it does work, although it is not the full preview - rather just the widgit editor. i.e. it does not display all the home pages, which is what the standard launcher did in the MIUI-GB version.
[Desire Android Development] ozmanu:
Pinch to Preview Home Screens

Yes I noticed that also, when pinching the screen it would take me to widget editor - option to add widgets, I guess the pinch to preview all the home screens is not available in this ROM:(,

I guess I can still view all the homescreens by pressing menu, then picking the preview option.

Hopefully in the future we can have this option via pinching as it is much quicker to access homescreens this way.

Thanks guys for ure help, and A BIG THANKS to;) Marange for keeping the desire upto date with ICS

[Desire Android Development] w1000i:
Are you going to update the base soon ? :fingers-crossed:
[Desire Android Development] marange:
Again. It is not easy to change base. I need to repatch a lot, so I need time to do it. There needs to be a good reason to spent time on it. Extra speed is not a good reason if the base ROM has other issues (for example the 0.13 as issues with the camera). And sandvold updates quite regular, so I would always play catchup. So I wait for a stable/extra features for the base.

And switching to another base (like nikez or BCM) is even more work, because it requires even more new patches.

So I will update base when I think it is useful and I find the time to do it. At the moment I think I spend my time better on stability then on trying to keep up with sandvold/switch to another base altogether.

That said .... I do spent time looking at all the other bases and I investigate and do test builds. I know what I am talking about.

Marange
[Desire Android Development] BrAWo:
Why do not you update "base" Sandvold's ICS?

The current version v0.13.1

Or it is not necessary?

Please! ... look at the posting just above it ...

Hi all,

Now for the first time I tried video recording and got strong stuttering in the video. I tried several videos in a row and got the same stuttering results. Audio is ok.

I am still on 2.6.1 because of Germany language pack (2.6.15 2 days ago) and use the conservative govenor but that should't have anything to do with it because the govenor puts the CPU frequency to the required pace when required. Reboot does not help. Can anybody confirm? Does anybody have suggestions about how to handle that?
[Desire Android Development] fangthorn:
Incomming call recording no longer working

Does anyone else use the excellent "CallRecorder" by skvalex?

I've just noticed that it has stopped working for incomming calls but still works fine for outgoing calls.

I can't say when this happened because I seldom listen to the recordings - only when I need to, and yesterday was the first time in ages that I have needed to.

I suspect that it might be the "Shaky" kernel but don't want to mess with this till I find out if others are having the same problem.

Thanks.
[Desire Android Development] ph87:
Hey guys... please read some Posts before you write one... Most of these questions are answered ten times or more!

Marange spend much of his free time to do the best for these ROM and for us... so please be patiant till the effort to change the base will be profitable...

It is much more important to have a stable ROM then a fast and unstable....
[Desire Android Development] ph87:
Please look at Miui-Germany in the Custom-Rom for Desire area, there you will find more german Updates of this ROM...
[Desire Android Development] Gregor07:
Done. But I couldn't find any information about the video stuttering problem.

Ich meinte das bezogen auf deine aussage mit der Version 2.6.1!;)

English: I wanted to give him a hint, were he could find the newest German versions...
[Desire Android Development] marange:
The stuttering in the video recording is a known issue. This is something in the base ROM. Hopefully this is fixed in the near future.

Marange
[Desire Android Development] marange:
I am not quite sure what you mean. The shaky kernel is included in the ROM. In the installer (custom install) you can select it. So do you mean something else ?

[Desire Android Development] deino:
contacts error

I installed the newest version of the ROM, seems stable but I have a kinda big problem: the contacts won't sync. I tried removing / re-adding my google account, it syncs _some_ contacts, but not all of them - and none of the synced contacts have phone number.

Any idea what to do? Tried reinstalling the ROM, no joy. Don't really know what else could I try.

Edit: full wipe + reinstall + I had to login into my google account before restoring anything, and actually wait for the sync to finish. Or at least this is my theory, the phone thinks it still isn't fully finished wit the sync (no date for the last sync), but I have all my favourite contacts , and I mostly talk with them so hooraay, I guess.

edit2.: argggh. It seems to be syncing again - and now all my contacts are GONE. Damn it. If this keeps happening, I'll be forced to move back to the BCM ROM :/
[Desire Android Development] ZaLiTHkA:
Just tested this and sync is working just fine for me (including browser, contacts, email and calendar), new contact added using Gmail contacts list showed up on my Desire just fine, and deleting it on my device removed it from my Gmail contacts list as well. And my last sync date (in 'Account and Sync' settings) also shows up correctly.

You say all your contacts are gone.. You mean just from your device or from your actual contact list? If it's just from your device, I'd suggest you try a factory reset in Recovery and set up your Google account on the device first. Shouldn't need to reinstall, just reset the ROM to "defaults" and try again.

Otherwise, could it maybe be something with your data connection causing havoc? If you're using 3G/HSDPA, try find a WiFi connection, or if on WiFi try using 3G. Worth a shot..
[Desire Android Development] pipo1000:
Hi, I just tried 2.6.22 and with this version the Gallery seem to work fine. Great work. However when I tried 4EXT Control I do get an 'Permission Manager stopped' error and the 4EXT application crashes when I have the permission for root on 'ASK' instead on 'OK'.

it's very good that you look for a stable release ..:victory:

thanks a lot,
[Desire Android Development] philocritus:
I'm with you on the base issue marange.

Sandvolt upgrades his base at a tremendous speed so if we have a stable base we should keep with it till sandvolt's base presents a major breakthrough(like a stable camera).

I'm about to install your latest port 2.6.22 but can't seem to get the portuguese translation.

the link seems to be down :(

can anyone upload it please?
[Desire Android Development] marange:
I think you can also get it at the miui portugal site (they send the translation to me every week).

[Desire Android Development] Gregor07:
When I activate (Wifi) tethering it starts, stays on for a couple of seconds and then goes off.

After several reboots it stays on. I configured the hotspot (WPA2 PSK) and connected my computer.

But I have no access to the internet (no website found) even though I am connected to the wifi network.

Can anybody confirm? I am still on 2.6.1 Will 2.6.22 help?
[Desire Android Development] ZaLiTHkA:
I didn't ever try 2.6.1, I found this ROM when it was already on 2.6.8... But for what it's worth, through 2.6.8, 2.6.15 and 2.6.22 WiFi has been working just fine for me using WPA2 PSK. :)

Also, i get a reboot, when in progress of changing wallpaper. Goto: Menu - wallpaper - desktop and then click on one. Then you can scroll through a set of previews. If you click on the menu item in the bottom right of the screen there are options to set as lockscreen wallpaper or both. Then if you click the menu item again (not choosing any of the options) the phone reboots.

Don't know if anyone else has this too, it might be a MIUI problem and not this rom itself..

I can't get any logcat on this, it produces nothing when trying to do so :/

I don't remember having this behaviour with Sandvold ROM (prior to 0.8.1).

Also, I'm french with "Free" provider (this is the name of the provider), radio 5.17.05.23.

Hy there.

I just installed the latest release and I had a BSOD today while charging and can't seem to turn on vibration for incoming calls, it shows as turned on but it woun't vibrate.

can someone explain me why scrolling between the screens is much more smoother with this rom (ics) than miui gingerbread? i mean that is great but i don't understand it!
[Desire Android Development] llfbandit:
It's related to ICS itself not MIUI (for the most part?). It uses more GPU instead of CPU for rendering. As the GPU is dedicated to this kind of task it's an overall improvement.
[Desire Android Development] pushu.x:
Managed to get vibration working but now I have lost the lockscreen... as in my phone has no more lockscreen when I turn it on or when I wake it up. Any suggestions?
[Desire Android Development] Miles Prower:
Installed it on my AMOLED Desire, with a CM7r2 hboot. Everything seems stable enough for daily use, and after a few minutes of configuration it's pretty smooth. I like it a lot!

I do have issues with both the LED notifications and the Permission Manager, but nothing that couldn't be circumvented.

Does the base ROM have the Linaro patches?
[Desire Android Development] marange:
I know about the reboot when no option is selected, but have not yet figured out why it is doing that. I think it has something to do with the animation of the closing of the menu. But I don't know if that is something I messed up or that it is some problem in the baserom/miui code. Without a logcat it is very difficult to figure out what is going on.
[Desire Android Development] marange:
I am not sure that is going on here. It must have something to do with the provider, because it is not something what happens normally. I will look into the logcat and see if I can figure something out.
[Desire Android Development] marange:
The BSOD is a problem in the ICS kernel/default governor. This is solved by selecting another governor. This can be done with No frills CPU control. But there are other apps.

About the vibration. I have no idea why it does not work for you. It works for me (I think ... never noticed that it did not do anymore). Need to test it.
[Desire Android Development] marange:
What is the problem with the LED notifications ? And the permission manager is a miui issue. Hopefully it is fixed in the next patchrom update.

I don't think that it has the linaro patches. I still use an older version of the base rom (0.8.1). I think the 0.13 is a test version which has the linaro patches.

(The reason why I still use the 0.8.1 is written a few pages ago ;) ).
