I cba reading previous post's. What seems to be the issue? SD Card error 7? Please explain in detail.
[Desire Android Development] Bojan155:
device stuck on htc splash screen,

no devices listed on adb devices,

no logcat.

Only happens with p8 not with p7.

For some users pulling battery works for some not.

happens in cwm and 4ext

downloaded zip is md5 checked fine

I flashed p8 like 15 times now without issue

I am guessing its the sd-ext/partition corrupt which for some reason p8 is more sensitive to then p7

preludedrew said it could be a corrupt partition table but not necessarily.

tl;dr: weird ass issue
[Desire Android Development] chrrh:
Hello,

using p8 everything is running very very well for me.

Only noticed one little thing. I am using the orginal HTC CarKit and on most other ROMs the desire is aware of that when plugged in and is launching the car-home-app automatically.

In p8 the carkit is not detected and so I have to manually start my car-home-app. Not a big deal, but maybe this could be included in the working/not working-list to be not forgotten when we reach beta-status.

@nikez: Keep up the great work u are doing :good:

Kindest regards,

chrrh...

PS: Don´t know if carkit war recognized in older builds, as p8 is the first one I use.
[Desire Android Development] LaidbackNikez:
Thanks Bojan, If mld could PM me I have a new build ready for him to test.
[Desire Android Development] LaidbackNikez:
Ok Guys, I have a request to you, those who have issues INSTALLING p8, please get on our IRC and use the suffix ERROR, eg. "MyNicknameERROR". In my case it'd be "NikezERROR"

The channel is #ics_lente @ freenode

If you dont have a IRC-client, use http://nikez.nu/chat/
[Desire Android Development] LaidbackNikez:
As I only got one in IRC with that error, it's too early to say if I have fixed it or not. So I need more test results, and if that works I'll release p9.

p9 will contain; software vsync, hopefully better a2sd support, ability to remove "USB Storage Notification" - That's about it. But the real kicker is that hopefully it'll remove the issues some guys have with it not booting.
[Desire Android Development] ramnkc:
Thanks Nikez, btw i found some minor bug

1. Network search error

2. sometimes no notification sound when there is a new gmail alert... i'm not too sure about SMS/MMS.

Hopefully you can fixed above issues as well in P9.
[Desire Android Development] RoWeKo:
+1 for me
[Desire Android Development] k3lcior:
What advantages software vsync will give us?
[Desire Android Development] LaidbackNikez:
Smoother and faster response.
[Desire Android Development] LaidbackNikez:
Guys.... I hope those with errors did a full wipe... This means option "Wipe data/factory reset" and "wipe dalvik cache" under Advanced settings. If you haven't well... Let's just leave it at those dots.
[Desire Android Development] Co.Tibi:
I always format everything except the fat32 partition. And after that I still do a complete wipe just to be sure even if it serves no particular purpose. This way I can confirm that there is a problem with 3G connectivity and that is fixable with deleting skipbrokendatacall. I also find that I need to press the power button several times to unlock the phone (the same goes for using the tp to wake). The wake delay only happens with p8. No other major issues aside from that.
[Desire Android Development] BMelz:
removing skipbrokendatacall from build.prop did not resolve the 3G data problem for me. the data problem is only an issue if I'm using 3G with GPS enabled. the problem must be something else.
[Desire Android Development] LaidbackNikez:
Try updating your radio to the latest, http://download.oxygen.im/radios/bravo.5.17.05.23.zip
[Desire Android Development] atililla:
I have this last radio installed and also edited build.prop as commented above, and still 3G/data is lost after some time.
[Desire Android Development] ironjon:
Same for me but remove skipbrokendatacall works a few hours then the problem is back

Confirmed the wake delay but is not a major problem for me

Otherwise p8 is rock estable and fast :)

Good work

Tapatalking
[Desire Android Development] LaidbackNikez:
Ok, well, I can't do anything atm. I need a few hours to go through the errors myself.
[Desire Android Development] BMelz:
no worries, take your time. This has been an issue (with me) since Sandvold's ICS. The workaround is easy enough: Just disable GPS.

If I need to use my GPS I enable it and get a lock with the free app Turbo GPS then open Maps/Nav. I usually maintain data connection if I follow that workflow, sometimes it takes one or two tries.

Other than that, I can't believe how fast and smooth this rom is.You've done some great work Nikez.
[Desire Android Development] nicklashidegard:
I've absolutely no wake problems or lags etc on p8. What class sdcard do u have? I sometimes get lags/delays if I move dalvik to ext ( class 4 card). Now I keep dalvik on nand and it's lightning fast.
[Desire Android Development] sergio.otero:
More Info

About the installation problem, i've been migrating from p4 with a2sd (y/n/y) to p8 without doing any wipe and it has always worked perfectly.

But yesterday i did a full backup to do some testing (remove applications to try to search the app that was draining my battery) and after wiping and restoring the phone gets stuck in the evervolv boot logo.

I've tried 3 times with the same result.

However, doing a full wipe and installing from scratch solves the problem ...
[Desire Android Development] newsoup:
I think you need put attention to system memory (trying to clean -asap- some not necessary apps ..) that goes fast over 250MB.. I faced the same problem, now with 19,3 MB free in system memory reboot and restoring backup works.
[Desire Android Development] Co.Tibi:
16 GB class 10... what do you say to that? I have to say that I had the 3G issues with disabled gps so I don't think that's the problem.I'll tray to get a logcat about that wake delay.
[Desire Android Development] LaidbackNikez:
Class 10 does not mean that it's the fastest, e.g Raspberry Pi recommends to not use a class 10 :)
[Desire Android Development] hoomoon:
+1

Desire (bravo) with unbelievably stable NikeZ JB P7...kudos!!!
[Desire Android Development] scutworker:
I have exactly the same result; 3g goes up the creek when GPS activates when, say, you open Google Maps.

I had a clean install and have edited build.prop.

If you need a logcat, I can provide one.

Cracking ROM as well!
[Desire Android Development] Co.Tibi:
I know what you're talking about. I read about those class 6 cards being better at times than some class 10 cards (many a time it refers to cheap class 10 cards) but I guarantee that the one I'm talking about is a fast one (14MB w, 17MB r is the average; tested several times with different software).
[Desire Android Development] WatsonDue:
It's not about sequential speed, but about iops, random writes and reads. Class 10 are often a lot slower than some good class 4 or 6, like SanDisk.
[Desire Android Development] ironjon:
Yes totally agree

Class 10 cards not run so fine than a class 4 or 6 in Desire

Tapatalking
[Desire Android Development] island3r:
That's an urban legend. And it's proven again and again that class10 cards outperform class 6 cards of the same brand in both sequential and random speeds.
[Desire Android Development] *child:
Nikez, you're awesome!
[Desire Android Development] rete:
Toms Hardware did a pretty comprehensive test last year.

www.tomshardware.com/charts/2011-micro-sdhc-charts/benchmarks,127.html

Check it out...random read and random write, class 6 cards outperform class 10 in general for small files.
[Desire Android Development] island3r:
From your link:

Random Write, 4 KB (QD=1) [MB/s] (Important for Dalvik on sd setups)

SanDisk Extreme Pro microSDHC UHS-I (16GB, UHS-I) <-Class 10 card.

Also here is a benchmark I did myself yesterday. All 3 cards aligned to MiB.

First card EagleTec Class 6

Second Kingmax Class 10

Third Sandisk Mobile Ultra Class 10 (The one I currently use)

[Desire Android Development] sroy001:
@Bojan - Can you put the soft keys at the bottom left aligned within the notification bar itself? Just like the paranoid ROM... since there's a lot of space on the left hand side of the notification bar.. Not sure if that's possible, however the soft keys won't take additional space on our mini 3.7 inch screen

Paranoid ROM screens

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1859541
[Desire Android Development] Bojan155:
I can only offer to arrange the buttons so they are all in the corner but I cannot include the notification/statusbar into the navigationbar, thats that Hybrid UI stuff and I wont do that for this ROM. So no space gain I'm afraid. Besides as long as the ROM is in (pre-)alpha I'll only do the default keys and the keys with fixed menu button, nothing else.
[Desire Android Development] nageshr4u:
Amazing Rom

Upgraded to Pre Alpha 8 after full wipe. No issues, No crashes, All apps running fine so far. Its an Amazing Rom is all I can say :)

[Desire Android Development] kl1k:
Disk space issue

I was running Sandvolds ICS with cm7r2.

I went back to hboot and installed this rom - looks great. The problem I am having now is I'm using titanium backup to restore my apps. I've installed a few and then see I only have 10MB free? What can I do about the disk space issues as I can't restore all my apps now?
[Desire Android Development] bla_laber:
Did you activate the a2sd script? -> read OP!

Does it work? -> check partition usage in terminal with: su [enter] -> df [enter]
[Desire Android Development] jukyO:
Terminal

su

a2sd install

y/n/y
[Desire Android Development] nicklashidegard:
I have made a CM7r2 version of this rom, PM me for link.

Hope it helps

EDIT: @Nikez, if you're not happy with me sharing this version, let me know and i'll remove it.
[Desire Android Development] kl1k:
Doh! Forgot about that. Thanks. :o

Awesome. Will try that out. It will save moving between hboot/cm7r2 while I test things.
[Desire Android Development] scutworker:
Can you point me in the direction of that 260mb system hboot? I've found his thread here:

but can't for the life of me see that 260mb one, only a 250 mb system partition one.

[Desire Android Development] falconyx:
Hey man, since this 3g/GPS thing is basically one of the very few things that are bothering me I wanted to ask you how exactly it works for you. I am currently using the CM10 JB port from Elk which is based on Nikez p8 anyways so I have the same issue and of course nothing worked to get it solved...So here my question.

Let's say you need your gps and have data connection active: you get your lock with Turbo GPS (I'm using GPS Status which I love but will it work in this scenario?) and then you open Endomondo for example or Google Maps (which can get their own locks anyway, so is it necessary to first lock with such an app?). In my case, if I am then to exit either of those apps, my data connection would be lost and the only way to fix it is a reboot (very few times it actually worked with enabling and then disabling 2G mode). Now, you said that you usually maintain your data connection, but do you exit the gps based apps or do you keep them running in background? Maps is no big deal, but endomondo is quite the drainer, I am not sure if it drains that much while you don't record a workout, but still.

P.S. Do you guys have the issue with the blinking screen when watching Youtube? On Elk's port if I watch youtube videos the screen tends to blink shortly black, sometimes it barely does it but sometimes it can go wild. I am asking since I cannot get Nikez rom booting and compare it then.
[Desire Android Development] LaidbackNikez:
Hey guys

I think I have fixed the issue some have with p9. The error was in the kernel... I will speak to Drewis later today (he is the kernel-guru). But I will release p9 tomorrow/today. By the way, c'mon guys, those damn clicks - how hard is it to show SOME support for your developer(s) (Not only me, but the other ROM's).
[Desire Android Development] mld0491:
Hope to see this because i'd love to move on from p7!
[Desire Android Development] tuxy81:
I will do my third donation to you only after p9 :p

Last week i made a little donation to XDA too, something little, but is the least that i can do after your work.;)

Next donation will be to Linux mint and tdf :p

End of O.T.
[Desire Android Development] tetterismixalis:
Hello, first of all, the rom is great and the desire is flying!

The only drawback is that I encounter an error when i try to choose a network.

I live in the borders of Greece with Turkey and when my signal is low, it switches to a turkish provider and i can do nothing to change it back.

It would be great if you could fix this issue!

Tnx in advance!
[Desire Android Development] LaidbackNikez:
Hi!

Try searching my Nikez Lente 1.0.2b2-thread for "Network search fix" or whatever, try that, it'll work I think.
[Desire Android Development] LaidbackNikez:
Hey,

Thanks for your donations!

To everyone:

I really appreciate your donations - but (with a risk of sounding like a mom) ONLY DONATE if you can afford it! These donations are only used for beer and snacks (If my gf allows...). Not for paying bills or something else important.

As always you can do the free option of clicking at the right places.

Will this p9 have the vsync updates? I mean is there a benefit from p8 to p9 for those of us who managed to get p8 working, or should we wait for p10?

Thanks for your work!!
[Desire Android Development] LaidbackNikez:
You asked for stuff, I listened. Here you have p9.

Evervolv Turba 3.0.0p9 is now released! Get it at my website

Changelog and GApps are available at my website as well.

I am looking for a nice OP-image/header to be used here, Google Plus, my website and so on. If I get enough of them I'll arrange a voting. PM me with links :)

And please remember to click at the right places or leave a donation (please read this before you consider donating)
[Desire Android Development] LaidbackNikez:
It has been fixed in p9.

Yes, software vsync is enabled in p9.
[Desire Android Development] mld0491:

I would ask members of the forum for advice on how to work around the problem receiving MMS messages. If I am logged on to a WiFi network, I'm not able to receive the message. I only get a notification (via SMS) about the coming of such information.

I note that in the case of MMS, my ISP requires using a different APN and other APN for Internet transmission. Both APN `s are included in the selection list APN` s, which is part of the Pre-Alpha P9 distribution
[Desire Android Development] ramnkc:
Found another bug.

When charging, led notification turn to green even its not fully charge 100%.
[Desire Android Development] Bojan155:
Its not a bug, since ICS the led turns green at 90%. It is by design.

The hw button lights is a bug that was existent in previous versions.

Also this ROM is pre-alpha, Google what that means please.

Bojan - Would you be releasing your softkeys for p9?
[Desire Android Development] Bojan155:
Jup, but in about 14 hours. I was too sleepy to do them last night and I got loads of work today.

Do not flash softkeys from previous versions, there are framework changes so you will undo those if you flash p8 softkeys on p9 rom.

Is full wipe recommended from p8?
[Desire Android Development] ironjon:
When you install a PreAlpha/Alpha/Beta rom always is recommended do a full wipe :)
[Desire Android Development] fangthorn:
You could also try Nikez's Installation advice from his site:-
[Desire Android Development] falconyx:
Yeah man, always doing full wipes even on minor updates on those jb roms... + you get your phone back to where it was in like 10 mins :)

What do you backup with what and so on.

---------- Post added at 12:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:45 PM ----------

ok,ok,i read changelog
[Desire Android Development] falconyx:
Well first of all I guess it depends how many apps you use and restore after flashing a new rom. I for example am using like 30 apps max. What I lately do is actually not restore them with titanium backup (i don't have the full version, thinking of buying it though) but simply downloading directly from website - it takes like 5 minutes and I'm done. If you count the nand backup prior to flashing the rom and the flashing time itself I would say that I am usually done within 15-20 mins max. But since I usually keep a nand backup and don't always do one before flashing it takes mostly around 15 mins. Just did this actually so yeah, can be done but depends how many apps you got :)

New version is damn fluid and fast I think it is definately noticable, dunno if its the vsync but my experience so far is very good. Youtube videos still blinking though, any workaround on this one?
[Desire Android Development] satamateur:
no need to buy ONE X,i fix camera to work better then ONE X,no need donate,no need to buy me phone(shaky)....

this is scenario for new sci-fi movie....

i m very fany...

thanks Nikez and Bojan for p9,and for return kernel to boot....

return from paranoid to nikez
[Desire Android Development] sfjuocekr:
Or patch your own with the hboot patcher released a long time ago ;)

You just need 2MB cache.
[Desire Android Development] hachel:
by downloading from website you mean the playstore-website? what about app-data though?

anyway, p9 without complete wipe (just caches) and my google-account disappeared and there is no option to add a new one. so all google-related apps (like playstore etc) crash and my synced contacts don't show up.

no complaint as I didn't do a full wipe, just wanted to let anyone know who's considering to do it without wipe also.

cheers
[Desire Android Development] daffie:

[Desire Android Development] k3lcior:
Flash doesn't work either, it's not p9 issue but all Desire JB ROM's in general.

Even after you install a browser that supports Flash, and Flash Player from outside of Google Play, only sound is working.

And yes, i know "flash is not officialy supported" in 4.1, but it work on all devices if you install Flash Player manually.

This is the biggest deal breaker for me personally, thus i'll stay on ICS for the time being. :cool:

Can you guys take a test with Quadrant and post here the score?

I'm not sure if the swap partition can influence that much the performance.

Hi, what was your installation procedure? I've flashed this ROM after full wipe, then enabled a2sd but interface is very laggish :(

Enabling of "Force GPU rendering for 2d" does not help.

Here's a CM7r2 version of the build: https://www.dropbox.com/s/g9g601okv...ente-2.0.0b2-bravo - modified buildprop.zip?m

Should work fine :D

Edit: Face any booting problems? Logcat it and pm me it to avoid spam on this page :)

Edit 2: Tested the link and it works fine. Make you sure you format all partitions except sd card and clear cache and dalvik. Oh and I think you'll need 4ext too with an ext partition

Edit 3: Works with A2SD and you have 280mb in NAND memory
[Desire Android Development] vijendrahs:
Did full wipe and cleared Dalvik+Cache

Install from sd card

Reboot

a2sd install

overclock CPU to max

Nothing else i have done apart from this.
[Desire Android Development] Bojan155:
I received a couple of requests for softkeys for this Jelly Bean release, although I can make them, I will not as long as it is in Alpha state. I do not want to interfere in this stage of the ROM.

Also I will be going on a holiday tomorrow so I would not be able to make regular updates as the ROM progresses until I get back.

When I am back and the ROM is in Beta status, I will provide softkeys for it like I have done for the ICS Lente ROM. :) :good:

Thanks!
[Desire Android Development] TheTenth:
It came with a pleasant side effect for me : phone is much more responsive.

Edit: I can't even download a normal app, I also deleted the data from the play store, but still a no-go..
