I have only the problem that mySMS looses data-connection when phone is standby. So I cannot write/send SMS from my PC. I always must start mySMS on phone first to send it by PC. Don´t know If this an issue of my SMS oder JB/this ROM.

---------- Post added at 05:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:10 PM ----------

Solution (several times already for me):

- clear cache and data in play-store and in download-manager (maybe als google framework ...I have done but I don´t know if necessary)

- then wipe dalvik cache

WoH told me that a play-store problem is mostly a problem with dalvik cache.

I like the flashable gapps, that way we can flash up todate files quickly if we're using an older build for testing.
[Desire Android Development] Criamos:
Same problem here, can't get the PhoneUI to work, even though I have chosen the new option in PA Settings and restarted afterwards. Furthermore If I try to switch com.android.settings or google mail to phone UI, the apps just restart / reload and are still in tablet mode.

Dunno what has gone wrong there, been tinkering with those settings all day and can't get it to work with those 2 apps - especially the settings menu of android is way too small in tablet mode :/

UI and toogles

I just clean installed 2.52 to have the best performance. But can't get orientation toggle in Stock UI. I really like the orientian toggle in Phablet mode and in 2.50 (and then updated to V2.52) I managed to get orientation toggle to stock UI by choosing PA settings/launcher/ the red icon with yellow thunder. It added orientation icon permanently to toggles menu. :)

But now with 2.52 the red icon stands for color options and I cannot get orientation toggle with stock UI! :((

Hi all I seem to have lost the option to disable 'show widgets before lock screen' . I've checked under the lock screen and security sections of settings.

You can update gapps through the market. If the OS isn't supported by the new gapps then you can push the new ones through adb.

---------- Post added at 07:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:00 PM ----------

Instead of flashing the rom again every few weeks just enable the data option so that your app data stays on data partition. App data usually requires random access and for that the nand is much faster than SD cards.
[Desire Android Development] limbot:
After loading PA in so many iterations (different versions, different EXT partitions, different A2SD scripts) , I've finally got it running bewdifully with minimum lag and I'm even happier than when I first decided to load PA.

If it's of any assistance to newbs (or others)

1.5GB EXT3 partition ( using EXT4 was laggy using the same procedure)

Titanium Backup of all my apps

4EXT Recovery

Wipe User Data

Wipe cache/dalvik

Wipe all except SD

Install Rom

Install M2SD ( Only tick r-mount and safe mode)

Install gapps ( I only do Play Store all the rest are in my TB)

Reboot

Reinstall from TB.

Using the latest ADW Launcher EX because Apex Launcher seemed laggy at times.

My Desire is really only used as a phone these days, my tablets do all the heavy lifting so I really can't justify buying the latest and greatest Nexus. The fact though that I can load JB on a 2.5 year old device is fantastic, especially since my carrier said they couldn't even load GB onto it ( though I'd already been running GB for so long ).

Thanks to everyone here for all their informative posts and special thanks to WOH for keeping up the development on this ROM.
[Desire Android Development] pawan1993:
Try running Nova Launcher. It's more ICS/JB friendly and the speed and stability blows Apex out of the water. But customization in the free version is quite lacking.

See another useful post. I actually got Nova Prime in the last Google 10c sale, didn't even think of it. Thanks again !

Notifications Sounds

I'm using pac 15.1.1.

I can not hear sound notifications or when I select the ringtone in system setting or when I get notifications.

I have tried both the system ringtones and the mp3 ringtones.

is this a known problem ?

and how can i fix it?

Thanks in advance for the replies.
[Desire Android Development] tosonny:
Google Store Problem ...because of low memory:

solid explorer shows in sd-ext:

consuming 129 mb

other 17 mb

free 4,6 mb

I guess this is my problem why playstore stops downloading at about 6 mb (small apps did work). M2SD with settings "r-mount + data" shows 1,5 gb spase (under system settings) but obviously doesn´t realy give enough space.

- better using the other skript?

- or change some settings in M2SD?

Edit: wiped all, new flash of ROM to install the other a2sd-script. Seems to work now. M2SD is nothing for me.

2 notes:

1st: Facebook app seems to work on 2.52. All posts seem to load, even older ones.

2nd: torch toggle reappears when you copy torch app to system/app, set right permissions and restart phone.

No other problems so far. Rom works fast and reliable. Thanks for the good work WoH.

[Desire Android Development] tosonny:
As far as I know this is a generell JB-problem (but I am a beginner so take care what I say :angel:). Sometimes it helps to put the volume to loud - then absolut silent - then loud again.

But this unfortunetely doesn´t help always (for me) ...then I have to restart. I haven´t tried the app volume+/boost yet ...if it works on JB and if it solve our problem.
[Desire Android Development] BartAfterDark:
I got it working with r-mount

You have to add a symlink on my /sd-ext partition (real internal data partition), so it links to the gapps folder on /data/. That way the script thinks the files are on /sd-ext partition.

Hope it makes any sense :)
[Desire Android Development] cestino3000:
Maybe I discovered the bug: when option "link ringtones & notificatiom volumes" (under settings - sound - volumes) is not selected then notifications sound doesn't work.
[Desire Android Development] Hui91:
That's not true I have it unticked and notification works for me. You have to play around with it, once it works you're good to go: silent-vibrate mode and profile enavle/disable what I did to get it work.

Hi.

I have a HTC Desire, and I try this rom, but I was not satisfied.

First - Is there any way in the settings to have the normal appearance without being like this??

I try all but no result....

Second - The led notification works??? I don't think so. I make a phone call to Desire and no led of missing call.

It would be good if this works up ....

First - ParanoidSetings > Apps > Preferences > set 200dpi > set 360px ... then make the same for ParanoidPreferences > set 200dpi > set 360px ... and you will have it as the default resolution only with a little smaller text ... you can enlarge texts by seting up the dpi to 240 :good:

Second - led notification works for me
[Desire Android Development] loedrus:
Well, PACman 15.1 is a great ROM, everything else works, but I can't change any paranoid preferences. I can't change to phone (or any other) mode, and I can't modify the values of any app either. This method unfortunately also doesn't work: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=33460552&postcount=738

I also triedthe StockUI.apk, it didn't modify anything,too.

I changed the hboot, then full wiped (coming from a GB Sense ROM), flashed PACman, then M2SD, next item were gapps and rebooted flawlessly. I do not notice any other bugs, except that for now I'm stuck with the hybrid mode and preferences...
[Desire Android Development] ferrarinews:
Thanks for the solution. Can you help me in another thing?

I install INT2EXT4+ by the recovery, like say in the forum. Now what must I do? Because I install A2SD, and then in the terminal Iput "a2sd install", and dosen't happend nothing.

Help please.

Thanks in advance.
[Desire Android Development] aardappel12:
You don't have to do anything after flashing the INT2EXT4+ script, that one is activated automatically.

You only have to activate the "a2sd" script if that is the one included, which is not the case in this ROM ;)

Need help

Excellent ROM, i really liked it but i have one issue with this ROM. I am not sure i can post this question here. I cannot install Sygic Navigation Software with this. As per Sygic Technical Team this issue is due to DPI settings of my Custom ROM.So i should put the device default DPI value. Anyone here face this same issue with same software or any other software ? Can any one help me what value i should provide to install this Sygic software.

Thanks in advance

[Desire Android Development] errecielle:
Excellent... (but I need some help :) )

First of all: this is the best ROM I've never installed on my desire since I own it.

I've installed on a little 4 giga with 2 partitions. After a lot of installations with different flavors I've decide for a EXT3 with m2sd. This appears the faster combination. Prior I've tried int2ext+ but tje power on was toooooo slow. I'll buy a 32 giga class 10 and I'll retry.

Some issues:

- Also if you tick Gallery when installing form Gapps, Gallery will be not installed. After first manual installation (extract from the zip file) you need to cancel data and relaunch to be able to see your picasa web album. Probably the problem is the file name (GalleryGoogle instead of GoogleGallery?)

- Contact / Facebook: something is wrong because I'm not able to see my Facebook contact in the contact list. I see just me. I've installed Go Contact from the market and everything is ok. I think Contact is the worst app in this beautiful ROM.

- Mic. As you can see in the picture I've checked to view the mic on my default keyboard to use the voice to enter a text but I'm not able to view the mic icon. What I'm doing wrong?

Again thank you for this great job.

Roberto

EDIT: P:S: Which will be the best partitioning of a 32 giga SD?
[Desire Android Development] pawan1993:
Do not restore any apps. Especially apps that require sync like Facebook. And did you enable sync in the settings?

What hboot are you using? Since gallery is one of the last apps to be installed from the gapps package it is often the one that doesn't install when you don't have enough on the system. For picasa you have to enable google photos or picasa web albums to sync and sometimes if you sign in to google account through setup it won't work. Remove the account and add it again.
[Desire Android Development] ferrarinews:
Hi.

I installed through the recovery script INT2EXT4 +. I did reboot the system, and the phone was in bootanimation over 30 minutes until I had to do "adb reboot recovery".

What did I do wrong??

[Desire Android Development] dvsk69:
Yes, I did flash them during install but even though the hybrid mode doesnt turn off :(

It was actually working in the earlier versions of the ROM

[Desire Android Development] jdstrydom:
I'm running user apps at 160 dpi, no issues with sygic. Verified in paranoid preferences (apps) that sygic is indeed at 160.

Sygic and copilot are some of the only ones that are not too worried with dpi. Have you tried installing at stock 240 dpi and changing afterwards? I'm running phone ui for system and apps.

Good luck.
[Desire Android Development] andrhitm:
Hi,

first of all i like your work and i really want to use it as an everyday Rom. I tried the 2.50 and the 2.52 of PA but i had to delete both versions again because the Hardware Home button was not functional. I downloaded it twice and did a full wipe each time.

Anyone else with this problem?
[Desire Android Development] ferrarinews:
Or no one use this (INT2EXT4+), or I'm the only one noob in this forum. Try with INT2EXT+ and I get nothing, don't live bootanimation.
[Desire Android Development] errecielle:
Yes. The sync is enabled. In fact I'm able to sync with other contacts app. It seems only the native app of the rom is unable to do that. I've tried also to unistall and reinstall the FB app but... nothing

I've solved the problem of the gallery as I told before. I've reported as a note (bug?). I've plenty of avalaible space so I don't think the space during installation is a problem.

---------- Post added at 06:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:04 PM ----------

Usually this happens to me when I don't have the partitions in the sd card in the correct sequence: the first one should be fat32. the second EXT4.

After that if you follow the instructions everything works perfectly

News:

As PA already mentioned some time ago, they'll change their base for Android 4.2 JellyBean from CM to AOSP.

This is a step I can not really judge yet (you probably have to see and experience it).

On the one side, AOSP really improved their sources during their last releases, it's really optimized and blazing fast on the new Nexus devices, on the other side I can't understand why you would throw all the CM code optimizations away (that really improved speed on our device / older devices in general). We also won't see the optimizations that are the reasons why the Galaxy Nexus for example is that responsive on the HTC Desire.

I can understand their descision because they want to focus on Nexus devices, but I do not understand why we need another Team like AOKP that stops basing on CM and in the end everyone wants them to merge their sources in one ROM like PAC because they miss either CM's feature A or AOKP's feature B.That's the reason why I'm also supporting PAC at the moment.

I hope PA will find the right balance between features of all bases and stability, I think CM ****ed some things up at the moment, PA was very innovative.

I will probably check PA on AOSP out, I'd really love to see if it's better/more stable, but I can't promise anything.

But well, we'll see, first Evervolv has to get a4.2 running on bravo (I'll support where I'm able to). But as many devs also know private live is important and I really have to focus on my graduation now.

But even if I'm getting the Nexus 4 (I'm planning to buy one), my good old Desire love probably won't end.

I saw two people on their fb page asking to put HTC Desire, and it actually made me simle, keep it up :D but I think they don't like

b) I don't submit bravo officially to their gerrit

c) I don't like to make a ROM for PA but a ROM for the Desire which is optimized for just that device as far as I could get

[Desire Android Development] ferrarinews:
Yes I have EXT4. You have 1GB internal....!!!!!????

Explain how can you have more then the phone get, or I'm very stupid...
[Desire Android Development] servabat:
You can get more internal space by mounting a ext partition of an external storage on the internal storage. That's what do an a2sd script (in the case of int2sd mounting ext partition of the sdcard in the internal storage).

btw, i think int2sd is much better than m2sd, but it's just my opinion.

That's why you can have even 4go internal.
[Desire Android Development] limbot:
WoH, Thanks for that, but note that this is not what's recommended in the OP

CWM: Install A2SD Script: croniccorey's A2SD [INT2EXT4+ recommended] or M2SD [enable apps, dalvik and cmdalvik"

You might clean this thread up a bit in regards to the best setup by changing this line to what you've just suggested :)

I know this is one thing that's caused me heaps of "issues" .

Thanks again for the great ROM.

( Oh and I've just worked out why I'm having so many performance issues with my phone besides the A2SD, it's so old it's still running a class 2 card. It starts of fast and then starts to bog down as I add more and more to it. Off to the shop :) )

Over the last few weeks I've being going backward and forward between restoring Villain GB and PA because of performance issues under JB. I even borrowed another Desire to use as a test bed. Everything would work great on the test Desire and then when I put it onto my phone I had performance issues. Guess what, the test Desire had a class 4 memory card ! :p So buying a cheap class 4 card and then WoHs post re the best setup for M2SD has fixed all the issues.

After all this time who'da thunk it :) A trap for the unaware :)

How do I get all those hours back? :p

Hopefully this post helps other users not spend hours trying to sort PA because of an inadequate SD card :)

Buy a Class 10 it's worth! It's not so much extra $$

---------- Post added at 05:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:22 AM ----------

You said it. lol.

Anyway I still think you don't have external partition that is why you don't have enough space in internal. 4EXT and EXT4 are not the same thing note that Sir.
[Desire Android Development] pawan1993:
Haha some users go straight to blaming the rom instead of looking at what they did wrong. It's good you looked at your phone first :)

I suggest get a class 6 sandisk because the sandisk has amazing speeds compared to even class 10 of other brands. It's a bit more expensive but worth it. The random access speeds are a lot better on this card too and that's usually how Android accesses memory.
[Desire Android Development] tosonny:
I returned from INT2EXT4+ now again to M2SD (with settings " data + r-mount), because my phone was so slow that I couldn´t use it anymore. But now I have my old problem again (some posts above) that I cannot downlaod any apps from store anymore because - so I suppose - I have a space-problem.

Phone shows 1,5 GB internal store ...so this is definitely no problem. But solid-explorer shows for /sd-ext that there are only 4,8 MB free (from about 150 MB total space). So my questions are:

- Is this the problem why I cannot download any apps from play-store or is this space not relevant?

- Diskusage shows that 17 MB is used by google earth, 15 MB by sygic-aura (navigation), 9 MB by MXVideo and 9 MB Navigon (Navigation). Do I have to delete some of these big apps or is there a solution?

- How much space do you all have in /sd-ext?

Hope you can help ...it already took hours and days to get my desire working again in a proper way. But without play-store .....:rolleyes:
[Desire Android Development] andrhitm:
I think the problem is the data which is still installed on your internal memory (150 MB), because of this ticked setting in M2SD (Data). Try to disable data, reboot your phone and then try again. If your problem is solved then, the problem is the data of your apps which is still in internal memory.
[Desire Android Development] pawan1993:
How many apps do you have installed? Since you ticked data it'll leave app data on internal partition (recommended for speed). Too many big apps or too many apps in general can use up the internal data.

I would not recommend this as you'd slow down your phone considerably. App data requires random access and sd cards are horrible at that so you'd get a large decrease in performance than if app data was on the nand data partition. Apps moved to sd ext is fine since they don't require random access.
[Desire Android Development] tosonny:
