[Desire Android Development] Co.Tibi:
Hello everybody! I just wanted to know if there's anyone in here anymore. I moved on with a brand new Nexus 5 and Nexus 7. It has been a great journey alongside the people in the Desire threads. Hope to hear from some of you in Nexus threads. RIP HTC Desire.
[Desire Android Development] :
Hello! :) Of course it is! This rom is still doing great because of a lots of weekly updates from Evervolv ;) The latest package is from 16.04.2014 and you receive many fixes all the time ;) I'll also move to other phone, because Desire is too old and I also want to feel "this" google experience in Nexus / Moto G phone :P Cheers!
[Desire Android Development] maxens63:
But a lot of updates are for HP , not for Desire.

I don't understand why updates which should be for our old Desire are for HP.
[Desire Android Development] maxens63:
After messing around with other kitkat roms... For me, this one is the smoothest I tried.. And stable while running cpu at 1113mhz. Good job for evervolv team..
[Desire Android Development] :
That's so true! Latest build is superb work <3
[Desire Android Development] tikkalamt:
Impressive, just when I was complaining about smoothness!

I think I'll move to this even though there's no camera or soft buttons, at least I can talk to my phone :silly:
[Desire Android Development] MidnightDevil:
Can't wait to get home :b

Note to self: Don't forget changing hboot this time lol
[Desire Android Development] kmetek:
hey nikez: how long appx till final version, worst case scenario? :)
[Desire Android Development] icecreame:

I will free up some space and try again... Should there be a different behaviour, I let you know...

Space was not the issue... I reinstalled Chrome and it worked.... strange...
[Desire Android Development] schoerb:
Wow, it's really fast. Thanks.

But when I want to install an app from Google Play I get: Error [rpc:aec:0].

Any solutions for this?

Solution: I deleted the Google Account in the phone and added it and it works!
[Desire Android Development] lenocs:
Hi Professionals, I have a problem with my HTC desire, I've installed your RAM, and my phone went into a strange situation. Fist the S went ON.

The USB not working therefore I'm not able to S-OFF. No market, the terminal emulator & superuser also not working... I will appreciate any hints what to do...
[Desire Android Development] BMelz:
sell it, and buy yourself an iphone. you will be much happier.
[Desire Android Development] lenocs:
sorry but in this case I become like you ;) I'm looking for solution and for jokes....
[Desire Android Development] *child:
Looking good Nikez!
[Desire Android Development] Androidmarketuser:
Why isn't your USB working? Maybe it works if you start your phone into recovery (Vol Down + Power, the Bootlader appers and you can select Recovery)

In Recovery you can mount USB storage (at least in Touch Recoveries, don't know how it behaves in ClockworkMod)

The you can S-Off your phone with Revolutionary or Unrevoked, there are enough tutorials on the net ;)
[Desire Android Development] mattman83:
Read the thread, install gapps pack linked in first post. This rom will do nothing to your USB and S-ON/S-OFF status - that's something you've done to it.

[Desire Android Development] FROGDIVISION:
Hi,

Thanks for your efforts :), but not stable enough yet for a daily use.

Back to MIUI XJ.
[Desire Android Development] MidnightDevil:
Well, for some reason it's a pre alpha version and is advertised everywhere that is not meant for daily use.

Nikez, your doing a great job :) there's a lot of differences between this release and the previous! Keep up, excellent work! :)
[Desire Android Development] greenie25:
Looking really smooth so far, not quite at your ICS speed but not far off.

Will use this as a daily as soon as softkey/beta is released.

Looking forward to it!

:)
[Desire Android Development] gugapt:
Any way we can get soft buttons? mine work really bad now
[Desire Android Development] dadaus:
I think most of the users will have a full rom at the release but this is utopic.

In my opinion LaidbackNikez is doing a great job so keep on with this great work
[Desire Android Development] MidnightDevil:
Probably when the rom reaches a more stable level, because right now there's a lot's of changes going on and probably a new set of flasheable soft buttons would have to be done specific to each release.
[Desire Android Development] animehq:
For me camera "work" with third party camera apps available on the play store (totally unstable but work xd).
[Desire Android Development] Co.Tibi:
I may try that later. Thx
[Desire Android Development] jukyO:
Latest nightly or latest [MENTION=3678722]LaidbackNikez[/MENTION] build?
[Desire Android Development] :
Latest nightly (16.04.2014)
[Desire Android Development] alex_android:
The nightly builds are really fantastic! I'm glad to see that there are still a few of us around on the forums! Long live the HTC Desire!

PS. If any of you can, do yourselves a favour and get a new battery. It makes a world of difference. I was getting ~4 hours of life out of it and with a new stock battery + KitKat I get over 24 hours of use (daily driver use, calls, texting, browsing).
[Desire Android Development] maxens63:
This is strange... With the last Nightlies 04.23, my physical return button doesn't work...
[Desire Android Development] aledex:
Mmh try xposed + gravitybox... Mine works...

Inviato dal mio HTC Desire utilizzando Tapatalk
[Desire Android Development] :
Mine works too, and Im also on the latest Nightly..
[Desire Android Development] jukyO:
Nothing weird. Mine works sporadically like that for 2 years. Not rom related. You need to press hard.
[Desire Android Development] maxens63:
Well I reinstalled the 04.22 version and button works fine.
[Desire Android Development] zarac:
My hardware keys were a hit-and-miss for the past few months, but then I just used some contact spray and now they work perfectly.
[Desire Android Development] jukyO:
Only spray from above or you dismantled the case?
[Desire Android Development] zarac:
I didn't dismantle the case, only removed the battery beforehand.

I let it stew for a few minutes before powering it again and that was it.

My volume rocker didn't work at all and other hardware buttons were barely working. I had to push them very hard multiple times to get any response.

Now all buttons are as good as new.

Tethering

Hallo,

I want to set up a hotspot with my Desire. This also works.

My other devices, see the wifi but can not connect with it (authentication problem). The passwords are correct.

It was at 23/04/2014: ev_bravo-nightly-23.04.2014-squished.zip

and also 28/04/2014: ev_bravo-nightly-04.28.2014-squished.zip

Hmm, what am I doing wrong, still has something to be released? I can not find anything?

regards
[Desire Android Development] tom0769:
Not the right place to discuss nightlies!

Anyways look for the hostapd fix here.
[Desire Android Development] taninos:
The only app that let me wifi-tethering on other 4.x roms was "WiFi Tether Router". I can confirm you it works on this rom because I hadn't time to check it.

Best.
[Desire Android Development] lauterohre:
Thank you.

It works with this method:

[Desire Android Development] EpicSmurf22:
I know this is a noob question but how do i update the rom? :D
[Desire Android Development] :
Go to recovery and install updated rom zip from the SD card without any wiping and clearing.
[Desire Android Development] maxens63:
I do a dalvik+caché wipe before an update
[Desire Android Development] EpicSmurf22:
one more thing whats the difference between ev_bravo-4.0.0p1 and p2?
[Desire Android Development] :
p1 and p2 was like ages ago. Install the latest build from Evervolv website ;)
[Desire Android Development] EpicSmurf22:
Where do i download themes?
[Desire Android Development] spezi77:
This is a development thread. Be so kind and search/raise this question in the Q&A or general Desire forum. Thank you.
[Desire Android Development] ze7zez:
file manager?

It is difficult to begin installing the apk and system configuration without access to google play.

And it is not always possible.

.

The default browser can not display localhost

file://

I think it useful to everyone, when added will be a basic file manager. Please.

.
[Desire Android Development] :
You can flash gapps, download manager and then delete it.

You can download any manager directly from xda and then put it on sd card.

Is it really so hard?
[Desire Android Development] ze7zez:
If the browser display the contents of localhost it would not be writing this post. I know how to handle myself, but I wrote it to another easier.

So hard for you to understand what I wrote?

.

The recommended apps-core-kk-2013-11-25.zip not have a file manager, and access to the internet is not always possible. Do you want to install apk files without a manager? Good Luck! Not all users can create ZIP installing applications through recovery.

Tethering Fix

With thread: [ROM] [N1] Evervolv Kitkat 4.4

katochwa post

hostapd.zip

lauterohre post

hotspot_fix.zip

I confirm. It works great.

It is a pity that the files can not be used by Niklas, by which every flashing Nightly Builds ROMs need to patch.

.
[Desire Android Development] LaidbackNikez:
The problem here is that this is not actually fixing the issue, it's only a workaround. If you submit the fix for the source code (I can't remember what generates hostapd at the moment) it'll be fixed. But first you have to find the difference in the source code from whatever generates hostapd before and after it broke. If you do that, the problem is solved and you don't have to flash a "patch" everytime.

Edit: If I recall correctly we moved from wpa_supplicant_6 to wpa_supplicant_8, so, look there :) (Which I now remember generates the hostapd)
[Desire Android Development] enix2k:
Today's test, 5.07 nightly still need patch... :(
[Desire Android Development] nickleby:
Hello [MENTION=3678722]LaidbackNikez[/MENTION] I've been researching deeply about the native usb tethering and comparing with the HD2 build by tytung (which have working native usb tether) and I got USB tether working on the Desire on latest KK nightly (It doesn't FC when you check USB Tethering and it's working tethering the WiFi data to USB) :D :D The negative side is that I broke ADB, but let's see if I can go further with this so maybe you can get it fully working...

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I think I finally managed to solve the adb-thing, now I can use usb tethering and adb without restarting the phone.

Camera, Video playback, Camcorder and FM radio

It is tempting to install this ROM but I would refrain to do so at least until the Camera, Video playback, Camcorder and FM radio does not work on 100%.
[Desire Android Development] PuffMaN:
Good luck waiting for that. As long as full sources are not released by htc, this is the best we can get. If you want a fully working rom, install a gingerbread. [MENTION=3678722]LaidbackNikez[/MENTION] is a kickass developer, but he cant do magic. If he wants to fix it on his own he will have to write and compile the drivers himself. And that will take absolute ages. By then nobody will be using a desire anymore.

[Desire Android Development] spezi77:
Hey there,

Would you mind sharing your solution? Which files did you replace.. etc.

Thanks in advance :thumbup:
[Desire Android Development] jukyO:
Maybe you can contact evervolv team about your changes so they can commit them?
[Desire Android Development] paolo-red1:
I set my build environment and learnt to upload gerrit patches too. So I can test and help
[Desire Android Development] nickleby:
Hello!

The thing is that -for the moment- the fix it's just a workaround (not source code available)... But I'm currently trying some patches in the source code (from a repo that claims to have corrected the same USB tethering bug) and compiling files to test... If I succeed there's not doubt I'll submit the patch to Evervolv.
[Desire Android Development] nickleby:
USB tethering working

I've compiled the necessary file from source and USB tethering works!!! :D :D Now I need to figure how to upload the patch to Evervolv... They say it must be through Gerrit, but I'm new to this. Any help, PM me.
[Desire Android Development] maxens63:
Great job!!!!

They have a chat on their site. Perhaps try there evervolv.com

They might tell what to do
[Desire Android Development] paolo-red1:
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/learn-how-to-gerrit-with-a-handy-guide/ follow this guide, step by step
[Desire Android Development] nickleby:
Thanks, but I still can't submit the changes. However, I spoke to Nikez and hopefully he will be able to upload the changes. :good:
[Desire Android Development] paolo-red1:
Common error is that your repo must be clean, sync with evervolv, without local changes. Then only after you make changes, commit and upload
[Desire Android Development] nickleby:
Hello!

While you wait for the USB tethering changes to be commited, you can test this function. Just push services.jar to /system/framework, set permissions and clear dalvik cache (very important!). Now you will be able to use native usb tethering! It should work on any nightly build, not sure about KK Pre-alpha 1 since is not 4.4.2 (You may try it at your own risk of course). As always, backup your ROM first in case of anything goes wrong. :good:
[Desire Android Development] paolo-red1:
if you want, write your changes here and someone (maybe me) will submit to Evervolv. if the code is good ad administrator will merge
[Desire Android Development] nickleby:
Hello! Thank you, but I've finally managed to submit the changes to Evervolv's Gerrit using a clean setup of Ubuntu... I hope there is no problem with the code, so hopefully the changes will be accepted and merged into the next nighlty build.
[Desire Android Development] maxens63:
Well, thanks for your good job. Great helping Nikez for our Desire :good::D
[Desire Android Development] nickolasemp:
I don't see the changes being accepted in the latest log. :(
[Desire Android Development] nickleby:
Hello!

The changes were merged on May 28th, but since there was not a nightly build since May 21st until today, the changes are not showed in the log. But the fix is already in the nightly build :good: btw, so sorry with [MENTION=3678722]LaidbackNikez[/MENTION] for talking about nightlies in here :o

4.4.3 great work!

Working ART in sd-ext, thanks nikez

Enviado desde mi HTC Desire mediante Tapatalk
[Desire Android Development] paolo-red1:
Hi all.There is a gerrit change to use linaro 4.9 gcc as toolchain.

Builded rom is fine, by the way Evervolv team rightly wants to know if it is stable.

So if this ROM has more issue than standard problem on 4.4.3 evervolv, the change will be discarded.

So I ask you to test and report.

A problem could be ART not working. I can't test it because I use xposed.

Google drive folder
[Desire Android Development] ze7zez:
Without a doubt, version 4.4.3 is really to use everyday.

However, an application that runs in the background causes that does not work completely blank screen.

The display is dimmed, but not black.
[Desire Android Development] polac:
What is that app?

---------- Post added at 01:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:29 PM ----------

How can i have the latest theme choose here?
[Desire Android Development] enix2k:
ART is working??:confused:
[Desire Android Development] jukyO:
Download link please....
[Desire Android Development] Titioz:
I compiled the rom yesterday after applying your change.

No problem found yet

Since manifest up to 4.4.3, the rom is more responsive and MMS are working.

It's difficult to evaluate the benefit provide by linaro 4.9 gcc

I use xposed, I can't test ART too.

Titioz
[Desire Android Development] kostelo:
I actually enabled ART after setting up mount2sd, moving app and dalvik in sd-ext and reboot. First boot will take about 10 minutes to rebuild dalvik cache in ART runtimes but it works. Can't tell though if it is faster but will test further. It will take about 400mb in your sd-ext partition.

I will test it also in paolo's build and report back.

Ota update, last nightly

[Desire Android Development] ze7zez:
OK, in the background hung Titanium Backup, which is not finished restoring settings. TB was the source of problems with the screen saver.
[Desire Android Development] PuffMaN:
I have noticed TB freezes quite often when restoring apps. This has nothing to do with 4.4.3. There are solutions, but what usually works for me is force stop TB, and manually resume restoring starting from where it stopped. Until it stops again :p

Sent from my Xposed Nexus 7
[Desire Android Development] ze7zez:
I use TB because Evervolv Kitkat does not contain the File Manager.

I restore Total Commander and I'm at home :)

I bought TB pro, but it requires a connection to the Play Store, which I do not like.

Restoring the TB requires a license check and hangs up when he can not see.
[Desire Android Development] kostelo:
Your build works like a charm as well as ART (but not using it though for the sake of xposed). I think it is indeed a tad faster and I think also it is not a placebo effect. :p Thanks.
[Desire Android Development] paolo-red1:
This could be the effect of the clean installation or the dalvik wipe. Let's test this for a week at least
[Desire Android Development] maxens63:
I confirm that with ART, it is a bit faster. Tried antutu test and arrived with about 3600-3700. Before I think it was about 3100-3300, something like that.
[Desire Android Development] paolo-red1:
Ok, test WiFi and data. For example if you go far from WiFi and return nearby if it connects
[Desire Android Development] maxens63:
Works perfectly well :good::D
[Desire Android Development] nickleby:
I've compiled myself too using gcc 4.9 and everything is OK. I have not tested ART yet, but with nighlties I did and everytime I rebooted the phone ART needs to optimize the apps again... BTW, I think we should discuss this HERE since is not KK 4.4 P1 nor a Nikez ROM, unless [MENTION=3678722]LaidbackNikez[/MENTION] agrees :good:
[Desire Android Development] jukyO:
And when you enable art, it is automatically set to sdext I guess. Do we need additional sdext partition for it? Or one is enough?
[Desire Android Development] resoto:
Someone can say me what is art sd-ext?
[Desire Android Development] kostelo:
One is enough. Once you set mount2sd or a2sd and dalvik is moved to sdext, reboot and then enable art.
[Desire Android Development] ze7zez:
It is better, because the hotspot (WiFi Tethering) is already running.

Unfortunately, only works on open network.

.

It does not work WPA/PSK or WPA2/PSK, i.e. hotspot sees another device but does not receive and does not obtain an IP connection.

.
[Desire Android Development] jukyO:
Ok

Got it. Dalvik needs to be moved on sdext in order art will work since it needs more space then Dalvik.

And preferably faster sdcard.
[Desire Android Development] proadi96:
Sorry if i ask a stupid question ,but i cant find an option to unlock the volume . By that i mean the media volume is low and i want to put it higher but i cant seem to find option for that in this ROM . Anyone know where can i find it? ;) it was called something like safe volume :p
[Desire Android Development] vasili_defy:
I knew a Xposed addon called Unsafe volume, don't know if that it is what u mean! You can find it in xposed search.
[Desire Android Development] proadi96:
Lets say in Beanstalk ROM i can find this option in settings>sound>volumes and its called "safe headset mode" and when I unchecked it the media volume is going up louder . I hope u know what i think :)
[Desire Android Development] vasili_defy:
Use Xposed and install the app which I told you in above post! It does what u mean :thumbup:
[Desire Android Development] proadi96:
Oki I used Xposed and I looked for that module but it wasn't there so instead I downloaded one called "NoSafeVolumeWarning" and it does the trick <3 Thanks for the tip of u ;)))
[Desire Android Development] quimbexa:
How did you get MMS to work? I got it yesterday but today I can't send or receive, data icons show on and off when sending, and status stays sending forever, no change

[Desire Android Development] paolo-red1:
For who tried my build with linaro 4.9 GCC:

What do you think? Did you find any strange behavior? Old 4.7 linaro had issue with RIL, so please report if you encountered switch problems from WiFi to data and from H to 3g etc.. Thanks
[Desire Android Development] Gil-:
Was it included in the nightly 2014.06.11 ?

I just tested to disable / enable everything and no issue so far.

Didn't encounter any problem regarding RIL since I installed this nightly.
[Desire Android Development] paolo-red1:
No it is not merged yet. I posted a Google drive link few post ago

Ok. I downloaded the files. If nobody has tested tonight I will.
