Yep, it's an init script so activates at boot. So with int2ext+ your apps and dalvik cache will already be in /sd-ext but your appdata will still be on NAND. I'd def. backup your appdata using whatever method you like (I like MyBackup Root) BEFORE you swap for int2ext, then try a restore. Best method is an app+data backup, full wipe then a fresh ROM install (with your choice of script) followed by a restore of apps/data to be safe...

bug in desire wifi driver:

An out-of-bounds read error condition exists in Broadcom's BCM4325 and BCM4329 combo solutions firmware. This error can be leveraged to denial of service attack, and possibly information disclosure. An attacker can send a RSN (802.11i) information element, which causes the Wi-Fi NIC to stop responding.

Is anyone else having a weird THICK RED border around the screen sometimes? Its very VERY momentary... I've been trying to get a snapshot of it, but I keep missing!

Not that it is harming the performance... But I've never had it in any other version. Persists despite reflashing (after a full-wipe). Will prolly give it a wait and reflash again later.

Great rom but I have problems with low space in it. After I restore an about 50 apps with TB I'm starting to receive " loading" notification in status bar. Tried all the methods that folks suggested here with custom hboot, a2sd, intext4+ but still can't run the rom smoothly.

What else can I do if I have an about 200 user apps?

[Desire Android Development] urarthur:
INT2EXT4+ runs smoothly here and boots just fine. If you ever wipe dalvik cache, you must do it with the dalvik cache wipe script otherwise, you're phone won't boot.

There are some things you can do to make your phone faster and smoother.You can always overclock the processor, although your battery will run out faster. From my experience the limiting factor of the Desire is not the processor but the memory. If you've installed a lot of apps, some of them will run in the background for no reason. you can limit the number of background process. Go to Settings --> Developer Options --> on the bottom there is an option to limit the background process to e.g. 4. Unfortunately, you'll have to do it every time your phone reboots and I am not aware of any apps that can do that. For me this increase a lot of free memory that were otherwise used for caching apps that i didn't need to run in the background.

Another thing you can do is to disable autostart receivers for some apps. There is one built in the Rom Toolbox Pro app. Don't use task managers to kill apps, as they are useless. Killing apps sometimes kills other process that are necessary for the phone.

I am not a developer so I don't recommend everyone doing so, as I don't really know how this affects the overall stability of the phone, but at least for me the phone is much faster and not lagging anymore.
[Desire Android Development] SJAirWolf:
Yes, class 10 cards are slow on read/write small files. Better sd cards are Sand Disk Ultra class 4.

Hy there,

Tried the ROM today, the cm7r2 version, and noticed that like the v2 this one has no lockscreen.

Am I the only one or is there any1 else with the same question? Could it be just a "glitch" in the trmmed version.

And couldn't add an account. Neigther from contacts nor from settings->add account.

But it's a awsome progress. Good work Nikez and Evervolv.

[Desire Android Development] Spierbal:
Well the clock widget is mClock, the specific skin is called Lost Exhibit - Omega cyan.

If you haven't installed it mClock before, you can get it from the play store. So you need a folder called mClock in sd card, simply drag and drop from this link into your newly created Lost Exhbit folder. So all skins have their own folder in there, and now locate it within the mClock app to that folder created and choose the Lost Exhibit- Omega cyan.

Sorry, i think I skipped one page.

If I remeber correctly, I had this once that the su-update fails and mounting r/w of /system failed. I then wiped dalvik and cache, of course a reboot and tried again to update the binaries. Does this help?

I think updating the binaries or anything in this process should affect your a2sd functionality. But If you like to be safe, just do a nandroid backup as you are in the recovery anyways for clearing the caches..

Just dropped this ROM onto my desire today and have to say it is pretty awesome....I have moved to a one X but been hanging onto stock at minute but was desperate to see what Jelly Bean was like so dusted off my old desire and headed here.

Because this is not my day to day phone thought it wouldn't hurt to try a pre-alpha rom...but i have to say I have tried betas and RC's that weren't as far on as this (only really camera missing from a complete day to day rom)..

Any chance of p4 being released tonight and any clues as to the changes (I presume small but all worthwhile).

Please please keep up the excellent work...I can't beleive how good my creaking old desire still is with this rom on it...

Multi user login ---> not necessary for phones

Panorama 360 --> looks impressive but i think there are apps for that too

Applications missing after removing battery

Hi

I have a very weird problem. I'm using Evervolv-turba-3.1.0p1-bravo, nikez-lente-gapps-ev-jb-20120816 and standard a2sd with a 1gb partition in the SD.

If i turn off the phone, remove the battery, put the battery again and start, it appears the message "Android is Updating, Optimising Applications" like when i install gapps or a2sd.

The problem is that after that, all application are gone and it appears a constant message "com.android.XXX" has stopped.

It happened the first time last week trying to change to another battery and i had to reinstall all.

Yesterday, i did a backup and after it happened i restored and everything was ok.

Today i've made some tests and i've confirmed that it doesn't have to be another battery. Removing and putting the same battery has the same problem.

Is this happening to everyone in this release (or previous)? Any suggestions?

Besides that, i can confirm that i don't have 3g connection problems since the previous release (Orange 3g conection stablished but not working without gps or wifi until restarting APN or mobile). Great work !!

Thanks

5. Install gapps

6. Reboot

7. Extracting battery ok

8. a2sd install

9. Reboot

10. Power down and up ok

11. Extracting battery corrupts all apps
[Desire Android Development] teoB_Glar:
I also had this problem once. I solved it by running from terminal the a2sd script again. If you check you would probably be low on space. I think That's because rom doesn't recognize (don't Know why) the ext4 partition therefore the Apps data/cache... But you'll get Back your apps with this trick, Just a restarting required. It's very strange though,im guessing its because Phone goes To something like sleep Mode and you are corrupting it. but im sure it Will be fixed. For the moment avoid swapping your batteries..

:P
[Desire Android Development] rodhull:
This is exactly why I don't use the built-in a2sd script. I don't think it's stable enough for day-to-day usage.

I've had what results in something approaching a partial factory-reset (corrupted/missing apps, deleted call-log/SMS, homescreen layout reset, non-functioning "home" button etc.) happen to me too when my battery ran out during normal use a few times. I suspect the ext4 partition is either being unmounted incorrectly or something else happens to corrupt the partition as the phone tried to shut down but obviously didn't complete in time due to the low batt %

Following this, the ext4 part. cannot be re-mounted on boot without a trip first into recovery to repair it (it would simply not be visible to the phone) then all apps/data are gone anyway following the "repair" since I store all apps, appdata and dalvik on my sd-ext using options "y y y" when I was using the built-in script.

A similar corruption also happened to me when I'd set a logcat going from the terminal emulator recording to my /sdcard part. to try to record the results following a crash/hard reboot caused by the Amazon.co.uk app which happens each and every time when you select the drop-down next to the Amazon logo. As expected, the app did what I wanted and crashed, causing a hard reboot - but when it eventually rebooted, my sd-ext part. was again corrupted and everything had gone again.

I use int2ext now and have dumped the built-in script long ago. Working beautifully now.
[Desire Android Development] SJAirWolf:
I've tryed that too but after first restart phone doesn' t boot anymore, even if erasing dalvik cache with the appropriate script. :( :(
[Desire Android Development] Bojan155:
Removing battery unmounts ext, same thing on ICS. You can try a 'a2sd checkext' next time and it will tell you ext has errors or not mounted properly, if your lucky it fixes itself after the command and the reboot.

Best is to not pull battery :P

Yes the 4.2 camera seems to flicker a lot less, but it still there. I got the photosphere kinda working and photo editing works too. Someone also said you have to put the phone in english to make it work?! Also the photosphere uses the gyroscope which the desire lacks. So i doubt if the photosphere will ever work properly.

For those who wants the 4.2 camera and keybaord with gesture typing + updated Market, here is the link:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1964726

You will have to make room in the syetem partition. You can (re)move the gallary2.apk and Latinime.apk from /system/apps and install the 4.2 files in the /system/apps and /system/lib directories and change permission to rw-r-r with root explorer or file manager with root access.

I can confirm this. Its really far more stable than the 4.1. apk.

4.2 camera and keyboard are not working here (installed from recovery the ZIP file).
[Desire Android Development] barrybear:
As mentioned above, you will need to push some files to the system folder first.

Step 1: Move/cut the gallary2.apk and Latinime.apk from /system/apps to another directory for backup.

Step 2: Copy and paste the files found in /system/apps and /system/lib directories from downloaded zip into your phone's system.

Step 3: Change permission of all copied files to rw-r--r--

These can be done with a File Manager app, like ES File Manager with root access :) Oh yeah, after pushing the files, reboot into Recovery and flash the zips.

As for photosphere, mine works, but most of the times there's still flickering going on..
