yup, it works, awesome!

thanks again!
[Desire Android Development] waterballoon:
hi I have a quick question. my Desire was running on Oxygen with GB... I can flash directly to this ROM right?

also what does the apps ex SD thingy mean? is it an essential/must? also just one last thing... everything that's basic is working well right? wifi, 3g/hsdpa, bluetooth, camera, music, calls etc...? it's really a miracle that an ancient phone like our lovely Desires can run ICS!

if that small update makes the ics rom more stable, then give it to us!! otherwise just focus on jellybean.

i would like to have that update too :-)

Jelly bean performs a bit better so I think everyone wants the newest version. It might be better to invest your valuable time in jelly bean.

I'd say go ahead with JB. But just outta curiosity, what's the small update anyway? ;) if that's something fanciful, I'd take that, too. :D

Hmmm, I've never tried Oxygen. But I did face that issue - very very rare, though - on Sense GB ROMs. A hot reboot would normally solve it.

[Desire Android Development] cmajetic:
thanks but in your preview at the link the statusbar is not 100% translucent or is that the wallpaper? i hope you know what i mean
[Desire Android Development] Bojan155:
There is a devider, but it depends on the wallpaper if its visible or not, the hex value is #00FFFFFF doesn't get more transparent then that. Like here its not visible:

Hi Nikez,

I am using your ICS latest build everything is good except battery life. Please please help me how can I get good battery life. I don't want to miss this speedy ROM.
[Desire Android Development] mld0491:
You mad?

I get two days life out of this. Was lucky to see a day with the other two popular ones on offer.
[Desire Android Development] vijendrahs:
That's why I am asking to Nikez, so he can help me why I am getting battery drain.

may i know what the apps2sd script is for? I understand the process, but I do not understand what it is for. is it to expand the 512MB of storage space in the phone... to allow us to install apps on our SD card? but doesn't 2.2 onwards support that?

Im on Smartassv2, btw about the profile I posted here, the screen on is overclocked so it drains the battery ofc more than default values. I just had better benchmark scores and responsiveness on that speed, even though it drains faster I still have a very acceptable battery usage. I particularly like my screen off mode.

Still hoping on more responses and findings by other people, I should not be the index here.
[Desire Android Development] waterballoon:
thank you. so technically, i should run the apps2sd script on the ROM, only if I really need the space right? I'm not gonna install a lot of apps... so yeah if it's not a must or anything i can skip it right?

btw is the space available for apps WITHOUT running the a2sd script 512MB?

translucent bar

Hi,i used your translucent mod.

As you can see the 50% transparant is just below headerbar??

How do i get it at the right place.. i guess it has something to do with the softkeys, for as i am not using them.

Background is only to clarify ;)
[Desire Android Development] cmajetic:
thanks for your profiles, seem to work fine.

priority is battery temperature > screen on > screen off, right? I think the last two doesn't matter what priority is higher?

and what means exclusive when turned on in each profile? is this okay?

No.,its 147mb to install your apps if you use the stock hboot which is the onr needr for the Nikez Lente roms.

If what i just said sounded like mojo-jumbo,you should really start using the search function to find answer to each of your questions, especially in the Desire sub forum.They most probably have been answered already :)

If you don't use the softkeys then it should still be ok and not show like that, I tested it without softkeys. But I also have a small divider visible in the top, I am afraid I will not be able to get it out soon.

I am testing something now, but SystemUI and those changes are pretty sensitive, one mistake and systemUI keeps crashing.

I'm trying to shrink this ROM down so I don't have to rely on SD-Ext, I'm having issue with the zip though, I can open it fine but whenever I try and delete anything Winzip freezes, the same with Windows explorer, I've 'unblocked' the file and re-downloaded it twice with no luck. I just downloaded Nikez JB build and I can delete anything from that, anybody got any ideas?

Cheers
[Desire Android Development] suiller:

[Desire Android Development] LaidbackNikez:
I have no issues with you taking bits and parts of my ROM btw. Forgot to say it before :p
[Desire Android Development] JDYx:
Thats seems to have fixed it cheers.

Haha Cheers, managed to shrink to 160MB and will use custom HBoot so should plenty of space for data.

^ dudes, I did a ext3 2gb partition on my SD, and from what I could see the a2sd script in the terminal emulator worked, I have installed 118Mb of apps and have 14.58 Mb free - ie the total space was 148MB

I moved Dalvik and cache to SD also and to check this I installed an Apps to sd application and all apps show as being installed on the SD card

however as my partition is 2Gb is there anyway I can utilize the whole of this partition for apps? or is only way to do that by using data ++ ?/

has anyone taken the script from Sanvoid or Siberes data2SD script from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1045824 and tried running it on this rom to enable data to SD? ( ok I tried that - which doesnt work so I guess it has to be enabled to work in the rom itself - but if this ROM was enabled for data ++ it would be the best ROM around )

I am using this as my everyday rom now, really looking fwd to the Jelly bean one :)
[Desire Android Development] neXus PRIME:
runs without hwa, so pretty much unusable.....but yeah, it was stable......keep it up Nikez n company:)
[Desire Android Development] Sheiji:
Hm I dunno about a 2gb sd- ext partition. 1gb works fine forme, mais I've got about 90-100 apps and about 100mb left on the data partition, so really having such hboot as cm7r2 or data++ seems really pointless to me as I don't plan to install 300 apps. (like seriously, I use only a third of mine :-\

But you never know. As you can see on the JB thread, some members are editing their version of the rom to fit their hboot so anything's possible.

[Desire Android Development] bungle2k3:
^ just out of interest what was your storage space when you did your 1gb partition can you do a screen shot of ur storage ?

I just want to compare it to mine ( I previously had a 1gb partition ) - thanks mate :laugh:
[Desire Android Development] Spierbal:
It sounds like you are just as app hungry as me, or at least would like to utilize ext 2gb partition much better. Well, I have got similar 2gb ext4 partition setup and it has been treating me well. Stock a2sd will eventually lead to space issues unless you opt xdata.

Anyways, you mentioned data2sd scripts, therefore I am presuming you must have a decent sd card otherwise it would be way too laggy with those scripts. So have you tried running Amarullz ad2sdx? If you haven't heard of it, you can flash this script at anytime, even after you activated stock a2sd. Games and apps run just as fast with no lag, no performance loss to speak off (only caveat is to have a class 4 sd card or above).

If you flash the script, there is no configuration to fiddle with, no need move apps to sd or install an app to check if its all there. It also allows for more memory to install apps and mounts all data as internal as you can see below. OK, how well have I sold it? :)
[Desire Android Development] bungle2k3:
^ yes that wat Sandvoid uses in his Rom I think, thats the script I was after - excellent

Nikes Rom with that script - woohoo !! im a happy boy :laugh:
[Desire Android Development] shandoor:
So just to be absolutely sure :)

If I flash the zip file from the URL you kindly provided, to an already installed and daily used Nikez Lente ROM 1.0.1b2, than it should fix all of my insufficient storage space problems? I'm just asking because I'd like to avoid a full ROM reflash if possible ;)

Thanks!

Edit: I'm using the stock a2sd script with the options YNY.
[Desire Android Development] Spierbal:
No need to be afraid, I have done this many times, meaning activating stock a2sd temporarily and then realising I need more space :p

Amarullz will automatically delete 10apps2sd (stock a2sd) from /system/etc/init.d folder. So that means you can continue using Nikez Lente B2 without doing any wipes/or reflashing the full rom.

Btw, should you want to go back to stock a2sd, save 10apps2sd somewhere and push it to init.d folder and activate it. Theoretically, it should work, but personally, I never needed to go back to stocka2sd ever after flashing Amarullz, but you never know.

Just to confirm, it's working like a charm, I've got an additional 527 MB of space (shown correctly in Settings -> Storage too!) to fill up with apps now. Thanks for the tip! :)

Edit: Scratch that, after a second reboot the phone stucks at the boot animation. Waited for 20 minutes and nothing happened. Restored the phone from backup. Bummer :(

I use now the standard A2SD with y-y-y

No significant lags. It looks strange if you look at your storage space, for instance i have 273 mb of apps installed, on the 148 mb available space ;)and stil 145 mb left... do the math. :P

I have a strange issue with the bluetooth.

My car BT set does not see the phone, and vice versa.

On both devices BT works couse it can connect to other phones.

Same when i install the yellybean version.

When i install [BETA 0.15.0.1][04.07] ICS for Desire[ALL HBOOTS][4.0.4] BT works with my car?? The car stil does not see the phone but the phone sees the car, that way i can connect.

Does anybody know anything about this??

Anyone having issues with Google Navigation? The instructions no longer include things like street names and exit numbers, just vague instructions like "Take the exit on the left". Also, the volume for the instructions is extremely low. I guess I'm not sure if this is a ROM problem or a problem with Google's app, but I figured I'd ask. A search of the thread didn't yield anything.

A2SD you need to select Y/N/Y.

Try re-installing the ROM with clean if problems persists.

I'm also use this config, but i set the battery-temp max value 960, the screen off-max is 768, the min's everywhere 245. With this setup my Desire uses 32% battery at night (10 hours). :S:S

Does anyone else have this problem with Bojan155's setup?

Btw...I noticed that, while the phone is charging, the led-color turning to green early (circa 91-92%). The charging will not stop until 100 percent, i just don't understand, what cause this.

(Sorry for my poor english.)
[Desire Android Development] chichoko:
i cant really say if his setup is causing serious drainage since my battery isnt a genuine HTC one.

But in general with this rom, using bojan's profile settings with smartass v2, my battery gets drained insanely fast and i just cant pinpoint the cause.

Even when the phone is in sleep mode, the battery gets drained almost 1% per minute which isnt optimal... I guess I made a mistake somewhere along the tweaking craze that got me when I installed the rom.

Dukaiii, try disabling all the profiles you've created and test it out again. I'll do the same now. Probably the issue lies with the smartass gov being crap on ICS when it comes to battery life.

Is JB still in development? No news for more than a week.

[Desire Android Development] BeatB:
What? Jb has been updated 3 days ago. Wrong thread. Ics here.
[Desire Android Development] dukaiii:
Thanks for the advice, but in the meantime i set the Advanced Task Killer in auto kill mode (Level:Crazy, Interval:30min), because i was curious to see if one app is causing the problem. Now, after 10,5 hours of sleep mode, i have 8% of battery drain, so that is much better.

I test it today again, after that i post the result again.
[Desire Android Development] Spierbal:
That should send alarm bells ringing, the fact that in sleep mode, you are still having a massive battery drain. While, I agree that SmartassV2 governor is not the most battery efficient governor out there, I wouldn't be so quick to put all the blame there. Not to mention overnight I lose 3% in 5hrs, 6% in 8hrs, with SmartassV2 governor.

There is no big secret you are missing out on, that allows everyone to have a great battery life. Well, there are some that don't use their phone, but I am average to heavy user and during commute I spend a lot of time reading, surfing and listening to music. During those times the battery is being drained, and there is some tolerance to that.

However, in your case, its not acceptable, I would start with an application called cpu spy from Play Store. This app lets you know how much time your phone spends in each cpu states. You can quickly check this by allowing your phone to sleep and observing whether you phone enters in deep sleep mode. So it is helpful in telling you if there are some nasty background processes, e.g. wakelocks keeping the phone from sleeping properly.

If the phone is not sleeping properly, there is a perfect app that is free on xda called Better Battery Stats. This tracks down and eliminates causes for excessive battery drain. So it monitors process stats, network usages and wakelock stats, you want to pay particular attention to partial wakelocks.

To see the best results normally, unplug your phone and switch the screen off between 1/4hrs. Then look at Better Battery Stats "Since unplugged" and see what apps/processes have prevented the phone from sleeping. Look at the first few in the list, keep checking till there are no values going through the roof. The app developer and others are very helpful, so there is no harm in dumping the log file in that thread if you need some assistance.

[Desire Android Development] chichoko:
Thanks a lot for the recommendations mate! I am a heavy user myself, especially when using the public transport and yes the drainage in those situations is acceptable to be over the roof.

But I've noticed for quite a few days in a row that if I leave my phone over night with around 20-25% battery, the next day it will have turned off cause of the battery running out. And I just dont know what the heck could be causing the battery to get drained by 20-25% over the course of 8 hours in sleep mode.

The only culprit could be the alarm clock but I'll be damned if thats the real cause...

Im using SetCpu's state info to see at which frequencies the phone is at the most. Its approximately 50-50 between 245mhz and 998mhz which is the max for me since I havent oc'd it. I'll check out the second app you've recommended but Im fairly sure that it has to do something with the aftermarket battery I have right now.

Its supposedly of higher capacity than the stock HTC one that fame with the phone, but right now its god damn awful at keeping the phone running.

Thanks again for lending a hand here. I'll write up as soon as I check things with Better Battery Stats.
[Desire Android Development] chichoko:
I thought the issue lied within an app I have but I've installed only the apps I use regurarly and which dont update often or at all unless I update them manually...

Better Battery Stats should do the trick since I used it before on my GB rom to sort out a similar issue I had.

Big :thumbup:'s to Spierbal for reminding of the app.

Folks,

Need some help over here... i just install this rom and i notice that my mobile network connection (3G) have some issues... i notice that when the network icon turn blue then i can use 3G. After a while it will turn grey when i wake up the phone or when i lost network connection. I can't use the 3G unless i turn on Air Plane mode and turn back on again, it will turn blue again and able to use the 3G again.

Any fix on this? Or its only my issue? I will try install my previous ROM and see it happens.
