Here we go:

Bravo PVT1 SHIP S-OFF

ClockworkMod Recovery v5.0.2.0

Baseband: 5.11.05.27

hboot: 6.93.1002

mSDHC: 16GB Class10 2GB ext4 14GB Fat32

installed Gapps: gapps-jb-20121219-4.2.1.zip downloaded from nikez page.

Had the reboots with phone active as well as when it was idle. Seems like typical 4.2 reboot behaviour reported on e.g. nexus phones.

Today I updated radio to 5.17.05.23, maybe the old radio caused the reboots?

I'm sorry to ask this in this thread, but I didn't find an answer searching on xda and probably other members have the same question:

what' are the differences between the hardware-revisions of our desire? from pvt1 to pvt4, erasesize 20000/40000, slcd/amoled...

could that make some trouble by using different custom-roms especially for pvt4 erasesize 40000?

So.. People are asking to test this... Sure. But if you want to test you'll have to figure it out with these instructions;

As the desire has such a small NAND, the ubuntu fs needs to be on a SD-card. (A seperate ext4 partition, more or equal to 1 GB).

The images I provide expect the ext4 partition to be located on mmcblk0p2.

You must extract the ubuntu fs to the ext4 partition with the same permissions.

I will not take my time to explain/help more than this, if you're serious about wanting to test, I can give you the img's. (Not a .zip). I am very serious about not helping more, this is for SERIOUS developers.

edit: mmcblk0p2 and not mmcblk0p1.

Clockworkmod recovery error: "no MTD partition"

Can someone confirm that they have successfully done a restore of this ROM in the past couple of weeks? (Specifically versions 4.2.1 or 4.2.2.)

I have spent all day trying to recover my most recent backup but it keeps failing; initially with the Evervolv logo stuck pulsing on the screen for half an hour till I pulled the battery (using recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-bravo.img )

and then with:

recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.0.2-bravo.img

I got the following error:

E:format_volume: no MTD partition "/dev/block/mmcblk0p2"

Error while formatting /sd-ext!

I have erased and recreated the partition (and the swap partition), using both GParted and Clockworkmod itself, but still get the error.

I suspect the problem is due to something having grown in size and is now too big to complete the restore but I have no idea what.

I am now having to reinstall the ROM and recover from Titanium.

I've restored many times. Iam on 4.2.2 version.

Make sure nothing is changed when you restore your backup. Ext type, hboot, partition size, all should be same as before. Hope you're doing a full wipe before restoring.

I occasionally have the same issue, what sometimes helps is when it gets stuck to just flash the ROM on top of it. So do a restore and then flash the ROM without a wipe. No guarantee, but worth a shot.

It works in that the lockscreen is funcational, but selecting the options button freezes then reboots the phone.

^ Surely it is the average user that you want to be testing what you have developed?

Bug reports help you prefect an already good working ROM, I think most people appreciate there will be things not working, and thats accepted

however there is still a great amount of respect for you guys.

However, I dont see the reason why the odd few ppl on here are so rude. I appreciate that to ask the same question a thousand times over it will get irritating but in this instance, the first set of bullet points on the changelog had a 'working' and 'not working' section (for the initial rom)

for the 2nd and 3rd release there was only working bullet points (it obviously was assumed the rest wasnt working )

However when Nikes said Camera!=working

I got excited and installed the new rom

But as I had data to sd script running - I thought it was a bug and reported it in case it was just a data to sd script issue

... I now know that != means NOT

thanks for the guys who explained this nicely, it is appreciated

Ok, keep this thread clean. I'll write it again - I can not be arsed compiling a huge ass list with stuff working and not working.

Investigation into Recovery problems

I know it's not good etiquette to comment on my own posts, but I thought I'd pass on the benefit of some research I've done into the above.

There were two problems in the above.

1. It seems that there was still a problem with the partitions, (Despite me recreating them).

2. There seems to be a problem connected with Bojan155's excellent Softkeys mod. (Sorry Bojan!)

My class 6 SD card had three partitions. The First being aprox 13GB FAT32, the second being 1GB EXT4 and the third being aprox 400MB EXT4 swap.

Using Gparted, I deleted the swap partition, Reformatted the 1GB EXT4 partition and moved it to the end of the SD and lastly reformatted the FAT32 partition and increased it's size (by using up the space released by the deleted swap partition.)

I then did multiple installations of this ROM, in different orders, with a backup and restore after each major stage.

I noticed, firstly, that the MTD problem seems to have been cured. But, secondly, the installation of the softkeys immediately caused the Evervolv hang.

Strangely, I found that when you get the Evervolv hang, if you remove the battery, and then boot into Recovery and install the "Install Nikez.JellyBean.3.3.0p1.undo.changes.zip", the machine will then boot correctly (not always, but most of the time). Even more strangely, I was then able to reinstall the softkeys and boot successfully.

Go Figure!

For anyone who is still reading this and is interested, attached is a log (PDF) of my many boots, backups Installs and restores.

Lastly, my Nexus 4 arrived last Thursday, so eBay will soon be getting my beloved Desire. It's been great journeying with Nikez and you guys - So Long, and thanks for all the fish!

[Desire Android Development] Bojan155:
Thats odd behaviour, I used to have more frequent random reboots and hanging evervolv while I was on clockworkmod 6 something, when I switched to 4ext recovery it went away for me. Did you check the md5 on the install softkeys zip? The undo basically contains the original framework and systemui apks from the rom and just overwrites the current ones when flashed.

Someone else using my softkeys and experience the same? If yes let me know and I'll pull them offline to avoid being the cause of frustration.

Im not using ur softkeys bojan, it may be usefull to other users, but i dont see it as a usefull addition to the rom. Besides, the more u put into it, the more that can go wrong. And im not giving murphy a chanse :)
