Try the settings in wifi - advanced. I never had a poor signal with this ROM. I checked "best wifi" (or something like that) and untick the "wifi optimization".

[Desire General] dwinovax:
Nope, no such option. There was a priority option though. Got a network speed booster and that sort of did the job.

Hmm... I've installed a gapp.zip on top of the ROM and now the search button is working again. But then my /system folder is all maxed out. Any idea what I could delete?
[Desire General] dvsk69:
Delete Google search, talk, live wallpapers, ringtones that you don't like, etc.

Basically anything that can be installed from Play Store can be deleted.
[Desire General] dwinovax:
Thanks mate. Did a full wipe and started from scratch. Lol. That did the trick. And got gapps off the store instead. But how about say the camera, gallery, email, calendar and browser? Should be safe to trash them too no?
[Desire General] abaaaabbbb63:
Yup.
[Desire General] hamzahussain97:
Firs of all I would like to thank you for a great ROM. Everything is working like a charm and the performance is great. Except one thing. When I am downloading apps from Play store the mobile hangs and is unresponsive sometimes. It goes back to normal state after the installation has finished.

And sometimes when I open the camera it shows jagged pics and sometimes it works normally. Please fix these issues.

Do you have any plan to release your code

Hello VJ. I tried your ROM and it is really awsome.

Do you have any plan to release your code to github?

If you have released it, please leave a link here.

I want to make further study about it and make some customization of the ROM.

I will share you my output anyway.

Package Installer Has stopped;Package file is invalid

Hi there, Im using the latest VJ on my Desire and always, after a while since installing it, Im getting an Package is Invalid error when download OR installing any app. Its pretty annoying, since It really pisses me off when I have to reinstall that god damn thing every weekend. So, being a little bit creative Ive tried to replace both Playstore and Package installer from different ROMs (for CM10.1 ofc) but nothing helped. With the latest "upgrade", when I replaced the Package Installer from Evervolv ROM, After a while Im getting a "Package Installer has stopped" error, when trying to install .apk, and "Package file is invalid" when installing an app from PlayStore. So, does anyone have a solution please ?

flash rom

Hi so I want to flash one of your roms to finaly increase my storage.

I had a go a year ago but it didnt go very well....

I'm gonna take this rom version 6.3

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2070704

I'm not familiar with roms so I just wanted to ask if somebody could explain to me how to do it.

I have to format my SD Card and create different partitions. but which ones?

and then i flash the rom with clockword. and then what is it with terminal emulator what do I have to do then ?

Thanks for your replys!
[Desire General] Mad Marty:
Create an ext4 partition to use for apps, and the rest of your SD should be FAT. I would recommend installing and using 4ext recovery for this and for flashing the ROM.

How to install a2sd after flashing is in the second part of that thread.
[Desire General] gedonserus:
not working

thanks for your support but i have the same problem as before. i just have 12 MB free memory and cant extend it.
[Desire General] Mad Marty:
Did you create en ext4 partition and activate a2sd?

If you go into Terminal and type 'df', what's the output?

Hello Quimbexa,

Yes, i just have downloaded and compared the drivers with VJ's rom, they are the same. So we definetly currently do not use the final Adreno 200 graphics drivers for Jelly Bean, but only some kind of developer pre-release. The final drivers are still not available.

Greetings

Simon
[Desire General] quimbexa:
And will they be? Being the desire 3 years old and all :confused:
[Desire General] paolo-red1:
What if we urge qualcomm to release jb driver? for ics the petition in qualcomm's forum worked and after some weeks they released.

With the last release they said that will be a future update of driver...
[Desire General] quimbexa:
We can do that and make a thread here on xda so everyone signs. But before that, are the drivers that important? Just to make sure.

Sent from my HTC Desire
[Desire General] Simon-G:
We do not have to do this, as Qualcomm already announced the new driver. As far as i know, the Adreno 2xx product line is still used in (low-end) products. Remember, we do not use an old driver for an old Android version (e.g. ICS), but an "early sample" driver for Jelly Bean:

And in the Qualcomm developer forum, a Qualcomm official said:

You can find the links for that in my original post on page 3. So, please be patient...

Greetings

Simon
[Desire General] quimbexa:
We're a bunch of JB addicts, it's hard to be patient ;) ahah just kiddin
[Desire General] Simon-G:
Well, there are graphical problems with some apps, like the camera (copying of live camera images), Chrome (scrolling of pages or some dialogue boxes) or hardware accelerated video. So, yes, i think for full functionality we need that drivers.

Greetings,

Simon
[Desire General] nowster:
One thing I've noticed with VJ's ROM is that BBC iPlayer doesn't show any video (just sound) at the medium and high quality settings, and the lipsync is way out on the lower quality setting. I'd suspect this is because the JB video driver isn't working fully yet.
[Desire General] htcdesire24:
Hello everyone here on xda

is someone already successful using 4.2 version in combination with int2ext+ script?

I tried different flash options (delete a2sd script it in zip or deleted it after flashing and before flashing int2ext) but always system won´t boot further than CM screen :(

With version 4.1 there weren´t any problems with int2ext only with VJ newest 4.2

has something changed between 4.1 and 4.2 that makes such big differences?
[Desire General] ntn_labs:
This will lead you to this. And that should help you a little.
[Desire General] quimbexa:
What about photosphere? Anyone got it working?
[Desire General] ntn_labs:
I tried that and it is working. I have replaced camera with the one from nexus, but I guess Desire is missing some HW, because it`s not working that good in terms of... positioning. Maybe a gyro? But I managed to make a three pictures one above the other and it did stitch them together...
[Desire General] quimbexa:
I can't seem to find photosphere in this ROM's camera app, shouldn't it be there?
[Desire General] htcdesire24:
thank you for the links

but unfortunatelly this workaround for me only works on 4.1 roms but not on new 4.2 (I tried exactly this way)

jmcclue also wrote this in 4.1 thread
[Desire General] ntn_labs:
I'm sorry didn't noticed that...

---------- Post added at 12:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:30 AM ----------

This is how my phone is configured. I replaced gallery with the one from nexus (haven't I written that before?). The stock one doesn't have a "sphere" mode.
[Desire General] quimbexa:
Well, I flashed 4.2 camera and it says the HTC Desire isn't supported.

Edit: found another flashable zip. This one works, I can launch photosphere but I can't align the friggin dot!

[Desire General] andreipaval:
Has anyone used Mounts2SD app (latest version from Google Play) with this ROM, version 4.3 with Gapps ?

I have tried, but after installing the app, configuring busybox and the init.d script, after I reboot I cannot install any apps (error code -110) and the previously installed user apps become unavailable, regardless how I configure the m2sd script. Even if I don't enable anything to move to sd-ext, it's the same thing. I mention that I fully wipe everytime.

Any pointers? Thank you.

SOLVED: I managed to find the problem, the Mounts2SD script searches for other a2sd scripts and removes them, mainly from /system/etc/init.d folder. So when I installed the M2SD app, it deleted

the 10apps2sd script (which is OK), but also deleted 05mountext and 06handleswap, which is not so good, because after reboot the system did not mount /sd-ext partition again.

This is why I could not install any app. I fixed this by copying 05mountext script back to /system/etc/init.d and set appropriate permissions rwxr-x---.

Everything works OK now. This is a great ROM, thank you very much Vijendra. Android 4.2 is awesome, I really like the Chronus widget.

Edit no. 2: It seems that there is still an issue about M2SD mounting /sd-ext, M2Sd was correct in deleting 05mountext, because it should have replaced it, but did not correctly do so.

With both scripts running, now M2SD app report a warning about someone else mounting /sd-ext.
[Desire General] quimbexa:
Why don't you just use a2sd provided with the ROM? It's simpler and just WORKS ;)
[Desire General] andreipaval:
Maybe it's simpler, but it does not have all the functionality.

For example, Mounts2SD, links /sd-ext/app-system to /system/app, so I can "extend" the system partition, this way I can install GoogleNow with all it's huge space requirements, and others. From what I know the provided a2sd lacks this functionality.

So, I do think Mounts2SD is better, plus you can configure it from an app and not from the emulator.

and now my question:

how about the cpu governor :

- What is the best actually (ondemand ?)

- IO Scheduler, deadline ?

How can i aktivate KSM and where ? - im not sure is this in the kernel ?
[Desire General] Simon-G:
KSM efficiency

It is in the kernel (at least in my older build), but do not expect wonders of KSM:

I made some tests with KSM, it is possible to monitor the efficiency in /sys/kernel/mm/ksm/ . KSM (i mean the comparing process, which must be done before page sharing) is working *very* slowly, as it artificially decelerated, because it is very cpu intensive - basically it compares the content of each memory page with each other, at least if the pages are identified as constant over some time.

So, after booting and even after half a day, no pages were shared. After one day, pages_shared was about 250 and pages_sharing was about 5000, which means that 250 different pages were identified, which were the same as 5000 other pages. These 5000 other pages were freed, which meant an additional memory of about 20 MByte or 5% of the overall memory (which is 404 MB). This even went up a bit at the next day.

This means: KSM helps only if you do not reboot your phone. It does not help if you use a lot of different apps during the day. It can only identify memory of long-running apps (like widgets) and i think, it optimizes only the memory for the dalvik engines for each process, as these must be similar.

However, I did not make any tests about battery-draining and KSM.

Greetings

I'm using VJ CM10.1: do you lag using the phone? Anyway, this ROM is fantastic
[Desire General] jankoboys6:
I just want to someone confirm if I'm right or not I was searching for an answer but didn't fund an accurate one.

Has the "force" move of any app to sd card been removed in Android JB 4.2.1 or not (if yes after exactly which Android version)? Is there a way to enable this in the VJ CM10.1 v4.4 ROM? I love to use this feature since this way I have always a "dynamic" space on the sd card to where I move large apps along the "fixed" sd-ext size where I move dalvik cache and other stuff.

I tried to play it on VJ CM 10.1 V4.3 and have the same issues. Steve start walking and then the game crashes. I guess you'll have to go back to GB to play it :P
[Desire General] Orionos:
I've been trying different VJ-ROMs for a while now to settle on one I like, the CM-version being my current favorite due to its speed over MIUI. If only Android had the same media player as Apple, with automatic bookmarking etc.

I think I've been experiencing a USB-Brick. Everything worked, but all data copied to the SD-card became corrupted the moment I dismounted it from Windows. Every time I needed to update the ROM, I needed to format the SD-card in Windows, copy the ROM, start the phone into recovery without connecting it to a USB port, then flash the ROM, repartition the SD-card, and reboot to finish the installation. Very nasty process. 4EXT didn't want to unbrick it.

Then yesterday, after wiping everything, 4EXT seemed to finally write the new record, and it seems the problem has been resolved.

So my question: was that USB-Brick?

Also, I created a 2GB SD-EXT3 partition. Is the amount of space available for apps (that shows in the settings) supposed to increase to 1.8G now, like it does with INT2EXT, or will it stay on 141MB forever (while it moves all new apps to the SD-Card on boot)?

Hope I'm clear...

Finally, is it recommended to wipe everything on every update? For example, I'm running CM version 4.3, should I wipe everything and do a clean install of 4.4, or can I just install over it?

Just asking since configuring everything every time is no fun.

Now if only I could find that girl from VJ's MIUI lock screen picture to put on my phone...

PS I second that question about the CPU governor to use.

EDIT: Oh, and it would be really nice if the next version of the ROM included a file manager, so I won't have to use adb to install my apk's
[Desire General] ntn_labs:
With a2sd, there is no need to "force move" apps to SD, because all regular apps are on SD. Only system apps are loaded in internal memory and to move them you need to be crazy, because it usually breaks the system ;)
[Desire General] quimbexa:
Been playing around with minecraft, it's pretty playable in the last version of the rom, still gets unresponsive sometimes though.
[Desire General] jankoboys6:
With force move I mean moving those user apps (not system apps!) which are not made to be moved to /mnt/sdcard by the developer on a manufacturers "default" android rom to actually make it possible to be moved to the /mnt/sdcard and not just to sd-ext. On GB roms I always used a2sd scripts for moving like dalvik cache, user apps to sd-ext but at the same time I could move

any

user app to /mnt/sdcard if needed. Since I'm used to this I just wounder if it is still possible.

It's nice to see it somehow running. On Desire multi touch controls in Minecraft kind of don't work well, but I was just curious if it works or not :)
[Desire General] ntn_labs:
Well, I remember apps that would move the "unmovable". It should work regardless of apps location.

Hi vijendrahs!

When do you plan to update the evervolv base of your rom? As far as I see the latest nightly has a working camcorder functionality. ;)
[Desire General] paolo-red1:
he is trying latest nightly from cyanogenmod and evervolv merged codes, see official thread in dev section
[Desire General] ChipKng:
Thanks. I used to check the dev thread very often. Unfortunately I cannot post there -yet-, so I had to ask here, therefore I didn't noticed he already answered my question. Thanks again. I'll try this new 4.5 version.
[Desire General] htcdesire24:
has someone testetd new 4.5 version with int2ext? is this working already?

neither in VJ dev thread nor in int2ext thread are useful information about this combination
[Desire General] ChipKng:
I tested. Unfortunately it does not work. From the logcat it seems the davlikVM is missing the /data/davklik-cache file. I guess it's because /data in that phase does not exists:

Could not stat dex cache directory '/data/dalvik-cache': No such file or directory

That's where the boot goes into infinite-loop.
[Desire General] dasche:
@VJ,... got it thanks...

Hi VJ. first of all thanks and congrats for such a nice rom (CM10.1). I was trying to download version 4.5 with gapps but cannot find it. the link you have provided in dev thread is v4.4 with gapps. please provide link of v4.5 with gapps or provide gapps zip for v4.5 .. thanks a lot..

Am I the only one who's home button does nothing on v4.5?

After full wipe it will work again.

BTW. video recording in 4.5 still lagging.
[Desire General] Klewe:
has someone tried WiFi tether on 4.5? mine keeps dropping. anyone?

didn't do a full wipe, just updated from 4.4
[Desire General] littlegtplr:
you do need a full wipe to get the tethering work.

I have the same problem yesterday, but after I reflash the ROM with a full wipe, everything is fine.

Thanks to VJ :good:
[Desire General] htcdesire24:
ok thanks for this information

is it then a problem to fix in int2ext or in the rom?
[Desire General] ChipKng:
That worked, thanks. :good: Strange, because before the rom install I did a full wipe... Seems after the rom install I should do it again. :confused:

---------- Post added at 10:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:41 PM ----------

IMHO it could be fixed in the rom, because it worked with VJ's 4.1.2 v2.4.
[Desire General] onimkron:
The rom is very smooth for me, no FC's so far (about 30 hours uptime). What's kind of disappointing is the battery life, but I moved from an old gingerbread rom, so maybe the new features in JB are affecting it?
[Desire General] dany89:
I just tried to install the Rom and then without leaving recovery flash the Cronmod int2ext4+ script, but it didn't worked (rom won't boot, and yes, I did erase all of the a2sd script files in etc/ini.d and /bin.). Everything ok with a2sd instead. Do someone has any idea why?

2nd. Am I so stupid or the "performance" menù to change governor and so on isn't included in settings?(maybe it's just something gone wrong)

3rd, lock screen is quite laggy: is it possible to revert back to the previous version so that I still get the functionality of chronus?

SWAP Partition

Guys I am running VJ JB 4.2.1 v4.5 with an 16gb class 10 card with partitioned 1gb ext3 for the sdext. I have noticed a lot of people use also another partition usually ranged from 128-512mb for swap.

I know VJ does not use swap partition. I never used either when I was using other roms.

But do I need the swap? Will that help my phone run smoother with this rom? What are the benefits?
[Desire General] ntn_labs:
Yes, I was confused by the word "laggy". I thought your unlocking is slow as a device slow. Not user slow :D

---------- Post added at 03:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:20 PM ----------

Do not use swap. It is not a benefit, it is a danger to your SD.

Dear vijendrahs.

I've used all your roms for desire from september and I liked a lot the customizable soft keys of your AOPK Jelly Bean.
