Very satisfied with this ROM. One quick question though: if after installing the gapps.zip as per the OP I still have no GMail app, did I do something wrong, or is it the gapps file? Would it be safe to only reinstall that file? Anybody else seeing this? Flashed the file directly after installing the ROM, only then rebootet the phone.
[Desire Android Development] vijendrahs:
Go to play store and download.
[Desire Android Development] sroy001:
Download the latest version from market :)
[Desire Android Development] xrookie24:
If you try to flash gapps again there is a small chance that your memory card won't mount. However you can unbrick this if your recovery has a usb unbrick option i.e. 4EXT recovery

Problem updating to P7

Hey guys im upgrading from P6 to P7 but everytime i do so, i face this problem. What's it about? I did a clean wipe, clean dalvik-cache, even check the MD5 sum and nothing went wrong except when installling the zip file

Install from sdcard. . .

Finding update package. . .

Opening update package. . .

Verifying update package. . .

E:Wrong digest:

system/lib/libsurfaceflinger.so

E:Verification failed

Installation aborted.

Need some help here :(
[Desire Android Development] Bojan155:
This can only be a bad zip file, either with the download or when copying it over to your sdcard. I flashed yesterday without issues.

---------- Post added at 07:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:45 PM ----------

I would like to stress the following:

Nikez:

Software release life cycle:

Source.

Do not post issues, bugs, errors about the ROM until Nikez asks us to. In its current phase the core focus is getting (most) features to work.

Your enthusiasm and input is appreciated but reporting the same issues over and over again is pretty annoying, especially with the quote above from Nikez on the first post of this thread.

That said, out of my personal experience, installing in the following way gave the best and most stable result

FOR ME

:

-wipe everything (NOT sdcard)

-make sure you have an EXT partition not larger than 1,5 GB (I got 1 GB) (no swap necessary)

-install the ROM

-first boot takes a while, be patient.

-set all your default stuff up (language, wifi, etc)

-reboot the device

-set up the a2sd script (http://nikez.nu/installation-3/)

-reboot the device

-flash gapps (http://nikez.nu/gapps/)

-reboot the device

If you do not get the screen Android is upgrading... , the a2sd script probably did not stick, it does not hurt to run it again and reboot.

-if you use Titanium Backup, if you get issues with a certain app, don't restore app+data, reinstall the app and only restore data.

(for advanced users, I adb pulled all my /sd-ext/app content, after I am sure a2sd script works I do an adb push to /sd-ext/app to restore all my apps at once, got 80 user apps installed, 148 in total). This way I have no issues, still plenty of space to install, no insufficient space errors.

The ROM is fast and I must say for a pre-alpha pretty rock solid stable, enjoy how it is now, don't bother Nikez about additional features.

I write this and invest time into this to support our developer because you need to keep the age of our device in mind and the declining popularity. Appreciate and enjoy. Thank you for understanding, :)
[Desire Android Development] RealR:
It's working partly. I also encounter low diskspace warnings. The strange thing is when I run the a2sd install again, internal memory is being freed up. So my current work around is to run the a2sd install everytime I receive low diskspace warnings.
[Desire Android Development] schoerb:
Good, but to thinks:

- You should flash nikez and gapps in one step.

- Make sure that you use Stock Hboot or even better the modified from Roalex with 5MB Cache.
[Desire Android Development] tsiftsism:
Yes, i changed radio. I was previously with radio 5.10.05.23 (had no problems with Sense Gb roms with that radio) and as soon as the problem appeared with the ICS rom i flashed the last one, 5.17.05.08. But it didn't help for both ICS and Jb.

As for the RIL you mentioned, sorry but i don't know what RIL is, what to do. So no, i didn't try to change RIL. :o

Some minutes ago, i run aLogcat and made a phone call. The problem appeared as it always does and i hope it have been logged in the file i'm attaching.

Thanks again, to all of you.
[Desire Android Development] aelfinn:
Thanks, and sorry for that question. I had tried to find the Gmail app in PS, but it wouldn’t show up. About ten tries later it finally did. Got it working now. :)

Just out of curiosity: is there a specific reason Gmail is not included in the Gapps zip?
[Desire Android Development] jamaniek:
ICS and JB ROMs already have an e-mail app included, so there's no reason to put another app that does the same thing.

EDIT: @down:

I didn't take that into consideration. But it's rather a matter of personal needs... ;)
[Desire Android Development] erklat:
Every rom over the course of time I had my phone had an email app which didn't support imap idle for any provider - and it is not changed with 4.1

So, there is reason and a good one atop of that.
[Desire Android Development] satamateur:
i flash soft keys in recowery and no working,freez on evervolv screen,i flash with and without wipe...
[Desire Android Development] Bojan155:
150+ downloads and you're the first I hear it doesn't work, try wiping cache and dalvik-cache. :confused:

which reminds me, I'll make an undo changes zip, easier than restoring backups :P

EDIT; added undo changes zip, this contains the original files from the ROM, tested it and works fine for me to revert changes. It's on the same page just below the download for the softkeys here.

EDIT2: Check the MD5 checksum please, for some reason some downloads fail half way. This might be your issue satamateur!
[Desire Android Development] satamateur:
i instal rom before 3-4 days and instal many apps and a2sd,maybe betther on clean instal,i use 4ext recovery,stock hboot,and thanks for fast response.....
[Desire Android Development] Bojan155:
it should not matter actually when you do it, I got a2sd and many apps too. Make a backup then try flashing the undo.changes zip first and after that the softkeys zip. Other then that, I can only think of a corrupted zip file download. Good luck :good:
[Desire Android Development] satamateur:
yeah after clean cache+dalvik all ok,thanks again Bojan
[Desire Android Development] tsiftsism:
Did some search and found the thread about ril versions (never noticed it before).

So, after making nand backup, i flashed RIL_2.2.0019G but when the device booted i had no signal (for both 2g and 3g).

I nand restore and flashed RIL_2.2.0028HM but it didn't help either. Result was the same as before, no signal. So I'm now with the version comes with the rom.

So, do you have any suggestion on what ril version should i try?
[Desire Android Development] barrybear:
Hey i tried everything. Downloading from my PC, transfer to SD and check MD5, downloading straight on my phone and still doesnt work. Could there be problem with my SD Card instead?
[Desire Android Development] xrookie24:
If you do that it messes up your app data. If you try to restore app data only I think you will just be in a loop of low space-->freed up memory-->low space. We need to figure out why the a2sd script did not stick. Unlike everyone else in the thread. :(
[Desire Android Development] Bojan155:
Weird, other things I can think off:

-Are you s-off

-Stock hboot

-Outdated version of recovery

-Try backing up sdcard and formatting it, maybe disk check?

[Desire Android Development] barrybear:
Hrmm, i am definitely S-off and on stock HBoot. Maybe my recovery's quite old >< which recovery do you recommend I install?
[Desire Android Development] Bojan155:
Im on CWM v5.0.2.0 , but I heard good things about 4EXT , can't really help you there best do a search on XDA and also its a bit off topic as its not ROM related.
[Desire Android Development] SiX-P4cK:
I'm on JB pre7 since 3 days as daily phone and it's much better than sandvolt ICS 0.16.1

Hboot stock and s-on.

the only feature missing me is wifi-hotspot but i'm not asking when, it's just a sort of vote for your incrase it on your priority list ;)

Thx
[Desire Android Development] tikkalamt:
For me too this is daily since P7. There's no going back to ICS, it's so good!!!!! :good:

One question: BT handsfree is working fine with my car, but as someone mentioned earlier, I cannot play music from my phone to my car system. Is there some trick I can do or just to wait the ROM to develop further?
[Desire Android Development] barrybear:
No prob :) thanks for ur attention!
[Desire Android Development] Bojan155:
Please wait. Also you can track progress from the sheet Spierbal/Nadir placed on Nikez his site here: http://nikez.nu/whats-working/
[Desire Android Development] jukyO:
4ext touch all the way.
[Desire Android Development] mld0491:
v11 onwards, sandvold's roms were buggy. Switched to nikez ics lente rom and loved it. Switched to Jelly Bean last night and only issue i've noticed is the keypad lighting will not stay on when it's activated once. So much better than ICS!
[Desire Android Development] Sheiji:
Do not use any on ICS, JB rom as they are compatible only with GB .

There is no Portuguese dictionary and auto-correction/suggestion on the JB pre 7.

Can anyone check this, or give me some clues how to solve it?

Got this error from logcat:

E/ActivityThread( 520): Failed to find provider info for com.android.inputmethod.latin.dictionarypack
E/BinaryDictionaryGetter( 520): Could not find a dictionary pack

Thank you
[Desire Android Development] atuladhikari:
Have you partioned your card?

Download 4ext recovery, available at xda and market. Just google search.

Copy all ur MMC data to your comp and use the recovery to partition your fat32.

ext4 should not be more than 1gb with no swap.

Then copy back all your data.

Before flashing the rom wipe all data and jazz except fat32 offcourse.

Flash ROM and then GAPPS.

Reboot phone.

Don't input any google info. Go to terminal emulator

Write

a2sd install

y

n

y

Attached a screenshot for terminal emulator...

Phone reboots.

Then go to settings or play store and input your gmail info.

Next time backup apps using titanium backup for apps and go backup for everything else except contacts. Contacts are downloaded automatically from gmail. Messages settings etc for go backup.

Lemme know if that worked for you

I'm not sure if Bluetooth tethering in the feature matrix refers to a built-in option or for third party apps but I can successfully use FoxFi from the market to tether my laptop for internet access via 3g on p7.

wifi problem

hi guys

In some country coz of SIM operators we have wifi problem IN ICS,but we solved by wifix ,in JB there is the same problem which i can not solve by wifix

its when wifi turn on ,phone can not find wifi network,

any suggestion?

K9-Mail

Mail client I use K-9 Mail instead included in the distribution due to the greater possibility of customization. This client worked fine for Android up to version 4.0.4. Unfortunately, in the P7 by pressing "Menu" and then selecting "More" shows the proper menu but you can not select any option in it to allow advanced configuration of this client. Does anyone on the forum has a similar problem? Is it the fault of the unsuitability of the K-9 to interface properties of JB? Or is some way to circumvent the problem?

---------- Post added at 04:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:53 PM ----------

And there is no Polish dictionary and auto-correction too.... Any possibility to add it manually?
[Desire Android Development] asterixb:
Nice work, thanks

Autobrightness but does not work very well if the ambient light increases the dispay increases but decreases if the display does not decrease
[Desire Android Development] iviarck:
I also use K9 and tried to reproduce your problem. At first, I was also unable to select options from the "More" menu. However, using "Back" a few times and relaunching the menu and subsequent "More" option brought it to life. Clearly there is something wrong, but it isn't a show-stopper.
[Desire Android Development] Bojan155:
Enabled the persistant menu button, still same as in ICS it will show on PIN and lockscreen. I did this for me but I like to share. :good:
[Desire Android Development] chico1620:

STILL Waiting

Still waiting for someone who care me:fingers-crossed:
[Desire Android Development] Bojan155:
Sorry no bug reports during pre-alpha stage. When in alpha/beta, Nikez will let us know when to report bugs.
[Desire Android Development] tsiftsism:
Didn't know that!! I saw that there is no bug tracker for the JB ROM, but didn't know that it will be active after an alpha version has released.

So, i'll have to wait for at least an alpha version and if my issue with phone calls still exists, then Nikez probably can find out what causes it.

Thanks.
[Desire Android Development] Co.Tibi:
I'm on p-a7 and I have a problem when trying to edit or create a new APN. Whenever i try to modify an existing APN it deletes itself on save. If i start from scratch with creating a new APN after I tap save the new APN doesn't show anywhere. What am I doing wrong?
[Desire Android Development] barrybear:
I did it! :D the problem was my Recovery was too old i guess =\ flashed a new recovery and everything's awesome now! thanks!

You can try Bojan's soft keys if you can't get them work.
[Desire Android Development] mld0491:
random battery loss :p
[Desire Android Development] Bojan155:
Still not bad battery drain imo for a pre-alpha.

and :p
[Desire Android Development] erklat:
Which part? You used your phone which rapidly depleted your battery and at 20% it went off. It is because your battery is not calibrated.
[Desire Android Development] mld0491:
nothing to do with callibration, was just a random thing i guess set it off in my pocket. Not bothered though it is a sign i may have to move on from this phone soon

[Desire Android Development] Sheiji:
Just a question is a kernel supporting v-sync on the desire possible or are hardware limitations just not happy?
[Desire Android Development] mackowiakp:
Kernel ver 3

I have a question to the developers on the forum. Are you planning to use 3.x.x kernel instead of 2.6? I ask because I'm on my tablet installed JB with a kernel 3.1 but I did not notice any significant difference. Well, maybe except that the developers say they will no longer develop ver 2.6.

superuser lags

if you have slow and laggy startups on root level apps (like tb, dns changer, adaway etc.) install supersu from market, it works faster and better.
[Desire Android Development] jukyO:
But shouldn't we then remove "superuser.apk" beforehand?
[Desire Android Development] satamateur:
this is only big problem,i belive in miracle and conspiracy theory ;)
[Desire Android Development] paolo-red1:
In gerrit review I read also that they have omx library working for video playback but videorecorder is still broken. Andrew Boren is working on that. Kudos to him.
[Desire Android Development] LaidbackNikez:
We're just waiting to hear from the future (drewis). He'll do his mumbojumbo magic and it'll hopefully work. I was doing some further testing last night and I seem to find where the issue lies, the camera sensor can't handle the intense light.. So it's a bit weird but yeah we'll get it working. I hope :)
[Desire Android Development] poncik:
you have to install supersu first. update su binary with it and then remove superuser.apk if you want.
[Desire Android Development] mld0491:
disregard, fixed issue.
[Desire Android Development] SiX-P4cK:
4 days with pre7 in intensive use and 0 crash . Just respect

ps: rockplayer to watch divx rocks ^^
[Desire Android Development] rete:
If you don't want to lose root when you do a full wipe, better to install supersu as a CWM zip from recovery straight to /system.

The latest zip can be found here

After installing this, go to data/app and remove any upgrade you may have installed for superuser.

I unslalled SU v3.2 and when I try to run "su binary v3.2", I can't allow root from this app. I understand that my SU doesn't have a root access.

Terminal use command "su", but when I run "A2sd install" - write "this script must be a run as root. Aborting"
[Desire Android Development] burningwipf:
Really appreciate you work!

It's already great and I nearly chose it as a daily rom already, just many of my most used apps gave a "missing shared library" when trying to install them :/

apart from that i didnt have any bugs :3

(oh and i deleted some stuff from the zip before flashing so that it would fit on data++ hboot, without it seems to be a little too big for that)
[Desire Android Development] bla_laber:
I also had issues with the market. I just deleted data and cache of the market app. Then it worked well.

Further it seems that there is high cpu load. Frequencies won't drop using smartassv2 and even ondemand governer - they are mostly at the max frequency. perhaps some background processes make some problems..

though, great work!!

I did not get time to install many apps. I just have quick pic, facebook, battery indicator, battery calibration, Titanium backup and Appy geek installed for now (installed fresh from Market, not back up from Titanium).
