[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alunduyn:
Hey there. I'm following the development of this ROM indirectly ( I use PA, which is build using this as base ). I found a lot of posts like "Butter will never make to our Desire due to old hardware". I don't know exactly how Butter works, but as long as I know ( as BigG said ), it is a new way to use CPU and GPU to animate the UI. Desire has a 1GHz CPU ( Snapdragon if I'm right, an old one but still Snapdragon ) and an Adreno 200 GPU. I read that the problem for Butter is GPU, which is quite old, and not CPU, that is absolutely enough.

A friend of mine has a Galaxy Mini ( 600 MHz CPU + Adreno 200 GPU ). He uses PAC [http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1931749] and claims to have Butter. I searched in the ROM thread and I couldn't find any word about butter on the ROM. But then I tried browsing here and there on that ROM, and if it is not Butter, damn, it is INCREDIBLY smooth. More precisely, everything that is laggy on our Desire ( removing apps from the Recent List, the animations and the statusbar dropdown ) on his phone are so very smooth ( so I imagine the things that Butter affects ), while things smooth on our Desire, the ones moved only by the CPU, are laggier due to the weak CPU of the Galaxy Mini. Again, I'm not sure of what Butter does.

Why posting this? I'm willing to help the development. I'm posting in general thread to not say useless things in the Dev thread if this post is useless. But I hope this is not.

If truly Galaxy Mini has Butter working, and truly the only "missing" thing to get Butter on Desire is the "GPU part", "we" (I can't do anything, so "we" is not appropiate) could use the Galaxy Mini "GPU parts" to enable Butter on Desire, or if it does not have Butter, use the Galaxy Mini demoniac tweaks to feel it. ( Obviously asking permissions and infos to the developer )

I really wish to help, please forgive any lack of knowledge on this field.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dethrat:
The reason project butter doesn't work is nothing to do with the hardware being to old.

Its because for it to work properly we need kernel 3.x

Which people need to wake up if they think that kernel 3.x is going to get fully ported
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alunduyn:
Possible. But Galaxy Mini does not have Kernel 3.x, or at least, not on the PAC. I uses 2.6.x, just like us. So it is not impossible.

If our ROM's developers don't have time to do that, or don't think it is needed, so this is a good and untouchable reason, and I already respect everyone who is giving his time to us for free.

But you're saying that it is impossible. Even Video Codecs for ARMv6 looked impossible to get, and still someone who did not give up found a solution and shared. Now all ARMv6 devices can enjoy HD videos on their phones with hardware acceleration on ICS and above. So why being so negative? Why just screaming "IT'S IMPOSSIBLE" to everyone who wants to try to get that working, even in his little? If Butter will ever make to Desire, won't you use it? Won't your device feel newer? I do think so. So please, let me hope for the best, and everyone that don't want to give up with me. If you are right, the problem will be only ours. If we will be right, if we, searching all over xda, studying Android, Java, Linux and everything else and maybe compiling by ourselves will get kernel 3.x or Butter, you will be as happy as us, I'm sure.

Sorry for the OT, but I wanted to say this.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dethrat:
I'm not saying its impossible just very unlikely to get kernel 3.x.

And the galaxy mini has same GPU but with a 240×320 it should be smoother in some aspects.

For example I had a lg optimus one same GPU lower resolution screen and it performed better at all GPU tasks.

Regardless of whether butter works or not it still uses the GPU for the UI to some extent.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pro.gangster:
I agree with you than they can work on it at least, because Jellynow claims that it's Rom includes Butter and it works,while the bases are the same! although I really like this ROM (if I was not in Iran, I've donated Nikez already) and it's smoothness, I don't know how Butter affects.

hboot

there is another choice of hboot that minimizes the cache to 5 MB, but the /system partition is remain 250 MB, so you get 182 MB of /data

I think is good enough

it named Roalex, I found it on Jellynow website in FAQ part. (I'm new so I can't directly link)

I installed it via Fastboot Commander and there was no need to restore any backup. It's working Flawless.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beardymarrow:
That worked for me as well (see my post above :D) http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=33679837&postcount=51

I think if you've not formatted the partitions then you haven't properly changed the partitions sizes, so you need to format after applying an hboot (and then obviously restore from Nandroid) - I've had problems before when changing hboot, but not formatting the partitions afterwards.

What is a good working combination of radio and Radio Interface Layer (RIL) in this ROM?

I've got

Radio: 32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.23 (latest)

RIL: HTC-RIL 1.6.1062G (Apr 23 2010,17:35:06)

The RIL is old. I can't seem to find an answer to this question. Maybe it doesn't matter how old the RIL is or does it?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drb01:
Great to know that. Guess I better do a factory reset and start again. Just as well Titanium works! But and am I correct in saying a2sd is built into the latest squished ROMs so there is nothing else to do after flashing the ROM, or do I still have to go to terminal to install it after installing the ROM?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ikkuh84:
You still have to use Terminal for activating a2sd
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drb01:
Cool thanks. I never know why it isn't built into ROMs as I can't imagine anyone flashing their own ROM uses the Desire without it. The problem arises if you let Google download all your apps as you can't get to a2sd in time to clear space for the Google restore. Another reason to use Titanium...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sverfaillie:
Yes, you need a terminal emulator to issue the commands.

Alternatively you can hook your phone to your pc and use adb. (Provided you have a pc/mac/linux machine with adb installed. ... ).
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chusebizen:
You have two options:

First: you flash ROM and gapps. Once booted, don't put your Google account. Install terminal from SD, and then activate a2sd. Then reboot, and then introduce your Google account to sync all your stuff.

Second: you flash only ROM and boot. Then install terminal from SD and activate a2sd.

Then reboot to recovery and flash gapps and continue as usual.

I would recommend first.

And I always keep in SD for installation after flashing, titanium backup, root explorer and terminal

Regards
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drb01:
Thanks! Have always downloaded these from Google Play (hence the Catch22 with Google backup). How do I get SD Card versions?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chusebizen:
Google is your friend.

At least terminal, because is free. Search using terminal.apk.

Other option is once all is installed, grab the apks from /data/app

Last option could be If you have titanium backup, grab it from the zip of the titanium backup folder.

Tested Alpha Jelly hboot (250/5/182) with KITKAT

I´ve tested instead of Stock to take Hboot Alpha Jelly hboot (250/5/182) and ev_bravo-nightly-2014.01.02-squished.zip on HTC Desire Bravo. It works with out problems :o

---------- Post added at 09:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:43 PM ----------

Which gapps has working Exchange email. Version from Everyvolv´s has only gmail. Other Version has the email app without Exchange configuration. Who knows working Exchange email for Kitkat and Desire Bravo.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dimmy1405:
yeah, it is working... just get the exchange. apk and email.apk from somewhere else, install them and they are working...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xamastrok:
Hello all, I tried ev_bravo-nightly-2014.01.02-squished.zip and it looks light and fast! Nevertheless, it seems that it needs some ironing out, for example:

- After each reboot language reverts back to English (annoying bug)

- Dialer app seems odd, this must not be the original KitKat dialer. This is not terrible since I can install a third-party Dialer app from the Market anyway.

- Launcher (Launcher3) seems odd too, and settings button does not work. Again, this is not terrible since I can install a third-party Launcher anyway.

- Exchange missing. Thank you for the info about the two apks missing, can someone upload them in this thread? Otherwise, I will open a random ROM zip and search them in there.

The most important thing is not to do random reboots often, and I cannot comment on that. I will probably wait for p3 to test it again.

All in all, good work.

I have titanium backup pro, but i can´t copy it to sd, only free titanium works?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chusebizen:
You can only install terminal in order to activate a2sd. Then once rebooted with a2sd activated, you can configure your gmail account and then get synchronised with Google play and recover titanium backup pro, in order to restore other apps.

I already have my copy of titanium backup pro in the SD.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Noiz:
Not sure if this is related to the ROM or not, but I made what I assume is a 1GB a2sd partition using CWM Recovery before performing a full wipe and flash. Installed a terminal emulator and ran through the 'a2sd install' script, answering y,n,y (last question is just to reboot, right?). Anyway, it rebooted and ran through the optimising apps step but it doesn't seem to have done anything. Storage is still showing just 117MB of internal space and installing apps makes it decrease as normal.

Have I done something wrong or missed a step somewhere?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mad Marty:
Even with a2sd your internal storage will decrease a little as dalvik or data (depending on setup) will still be on internal. Use 'df' in Terminal to check if your ext partition is used, then a2sd probably works ok.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crnkoj:
sorry to ask this but the evervolv thread are way too long to search for it manually...

the link in the dev thread "Changelog, known issues, F.A.Q, installation guide and the latest news are available here " just brings me to an empty page, and clicking on any of the links, just leads me to downloads but no instructions as to what hboot, recovery and partitions one needs to install this, as well as i cant find whats working and not working. So if anyone would be so nice to point me int he right direction i would be very greatful.

Just reinstalled the latest nightly from factory reset using a2sd (without xdata), and about 50 apps installed via Titanium. I have run out of memory. I never had this problem before when using Mounts2sd. I guess this is the xdata thing? Is there a way to change it or do I have to reinstall everything again? Will it be much slower with xdata.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sverfaillie:
This happens from time to time.

There is an error on the sdext partition at boot time. Therefore sdext is not mounted and it looks like apps are gone. You can recover from this situation by opening a terminal emulator, become superuser ( by issuing su ) and perform a check ( by issuing a2sd checkext ). The a2sd script will find and correct the errors. Reboot now your phone. The sdext should be mounted again.

I'm using for almost 2 months the xdata option ( with a class 10 SD card ). Works like a charm. The above issue happens from time to time, but with the above routine I always managed to recover from it.
