Wifi tethering not working

I did a full wipe (wipe data/factory reset + wipe all partitions except sdcard). When I activate wifi tethering, mobile network disconnects. As soon as I deactivate wifi tethering, mobile network works again.

Camera-problems- CM10.1 VJ Jelly Bean 4.2.1 v4.7

Hello there!

I'm VERY pleased for the new CM10.1 VJ Jelly Bean 4.2.1 v4.7 -ROM. Still, like in earlier version, I don't seem to have a proper functioning camera in my HTC Desire.

What is the problem with screen flickering and camera not working in this ROM?

All other things seem to be working well, and that pleases me, because now I have more posibilities to use my old HTC Desire.

Please answer someone how to correct this annoying problem in other ways working ROM.

Hey guys,

i installed vj's rom 4.2.1 v 4..7 for HTC hd2. Before now i'd tried the v4.5 and v4.6. They always worked fine except the known problems (wifi, camera problems) .

Thanx for you, Vijendrahs, for your nice work, i will follow... :good:

Battery Life

Hello everyone.

I am still using 4.6 as I just moved to this ROM.

I had a lot of soft reboot and reboots with the message about the SIM card addition and reboot in order to get the network to work but ... I haven't had reboots for the last few days ! :fingers-crossed: (Victory)

What strikes me the most is the amount of people saying this ROM does not drain the battery.

I was on Redux 2 before and that was a pretty good ROM regarding Battery Life. I had always WIFI, GPS, BLUETOOTH, 3G and Actualisation ON, no signal at work (and still everything on) and could still have the entire day to play with it and still 40% when I got home and only charge while going to bed.

With this ROM, I got such config:

- Without Juice defender, everything on as before ... drop from 100 to 75% in less than 1 hour and 50% in less than 3 hours.

- With Juice defender and no data except every 15 min, Wifi off, gps off, bluetooth off, 265 MHZ idle to 576 MHZ and max 1113 MHZ ondemand, I now have 75% in 2 hours. But When I come back home, I only have 20 to 30% and must charge before going to bed.

I tested all this with an original battery and a 1600mAH battery, same results. (Calibrated each time of course).

I use Nova Launcher, I tried with and without Chronus as weather widget, not much diference.

How do you guys manage to get such a long battery life ?

Would 4.7.1 be better for battery drain ? Do I really have to full wipe before ? (Some say yes, some no ...)

Thanks in advance.

Google Offline Dictation.Will it work?

Hi everyone,

Thank you very much Vijendrahs. Without doubt, the best JB rom I have tried. Your continued support for the Desire is really appreciated.:good:

I was wondering if anyone has got Google Offline Dictation working with this rom, or if it’s even possible?

I’ve freed up about 46mb on system to make room and can pull the files needed from Gapps which I believe are the contents of these folders?

usr-offline/srec/config

usr-offline/srec/en-US

Searching seems to give results based on ICS roms or online installs of the Offline Language pack via Google Now/Voice in stock JB roms

Battery behavior

Found something interesting sting about the battery.

If I charge it to full in 4ext recovery and reboot, I have only 93% back in the ROM.

If I charge to full in the rom and go back to recovery it shows 101% then again it is not full...

Strange!

Should I wipe battery stats when full in recovery or in the rom?

Tried both and still battery has pretty poor life.
[Desire General] vrmuhr:
I went through all the nuts and bolts you described. I had also the instable radio 5.11.05.27

However, I now ended up with a rock-solid Desire, no soft boots, stable reception, wifi tethering.

In essence, I started a clean install from scratch.

I am using 4EXT Recovery v1.0.0.5 RC9 build 70

Some of the steps might be regarded redundant but hey - it is working!

First step was to install the radio version 32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2 - I can confirm Mo's say this release to be most stable.

You may find the radios here: http://www.mofirouz.com/wordpress/2011/03/htc-desire-radios/

To install the radio, I used this method with a USB cable connection: http://www.mofirouz.com/wordpress/2011/04/htc-desire-radios-faq/

I understand radio should be installed before the actual ROM.

Second, I re-partioned to 1024 MB sd-ext to EXT4 and even formatted the FAT32 part of the SDCard for I wasn't sure what left-overs may interfere. For sure directory entries are left on FAT32 when moving from one ROM to another. Consequently, they had to go.

In addition, I used all wipe | format menu entries offered in 4EXT menus. Better safe than sorry.

Third, well, I installed vijendrahs excellent ROM Jelly Bean 4.2.1 - v4.7.1 including GApps, ran su a2sd install, applied the tweaks et voilà

It really works like a charm. Smooth, reliable, quick.

Thanks to hamsteyr's brilliant APK batch installer you can find here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1531880 , the effort to re-apply non-system apps inluding their data (!) is minimal.

My deepest respect and salute to the developers mentioned above plus all the people contributing to the discussion.

Is 1 GB ext4 enough? BTW I already use 4ext and format it with a 1.5 GB ext4 partition. I used to have similar problems with paranoid,and with a ext3 partition instead... same problems.

Alarm Tone

Hi everybody.

If anyone is having trouble with the alarm tone, I have a little work around.

Install "Rings Extended" from the play store. At every event in which android needs to change any tone, you can select Rings Extended and this app will let you use several apps (default music player, PowerAmp, any file explorer, etc) for selecting any mp3 in the filesystem.

VJ Excelent rom! Looking forward to update from 4.6 to 5. Will donate from home when have the chance =).

Installing VJ CM10.1 Jelly Bean ROM after Supernova?

Hi can someone advise please. I am looking at installing the VJ CM10.1 | Jelly Bean 4.2.2 - v5.0 ROM on my HTC Desire. This has already been opened up and had the SuperNova Gingerbread ROM using the DAT2SD script for partitioning the SD card. Do I need to do anything special or just follow the install instructions to flash the VJ ROM.

Will the DATA2SD partitioning (above) clash with using the A2SD script from this ROM, or do I need to do anything to the SD card before I flash this ROM.

Still need a reply to this question, as can't post it to the VJ CM10.1 | Jelly Bean 4.2.2 - v5.0 ROM forum.
[Desire General] squarefw:
Will you expect ur desire can act like nexus4 or HTC ONE ? U didn't get my point:D
[Desire General] bramstoker22:
Hello,

Thank you for a great ROM.

Now, I've partitioned the SD card before installing the ROM, using the Cyanogen Recovery (1GB + 0 in swap). Followed the instructions for the ROM installation completely, including the a2sd script, and when on reboot the screen said the apps were realigning or whatever. Now I am unsure whether the a2sd funcion is actually working for me. The internal memory seem to fill up for each app that I install, and according to the Quick System Info app, the free part of the A2SD storage is only shrinking a little for each installed app (there is just 111 mb free on internal memory left, already used 37 mb despite only installed a handful of apps).

Is there any way to test to be 100% sure that the script is working? Should I have partitioned the SD in some other way instead?

Kind regards to you all.
[Desire General] ntn_labs:
Of course not ! I expect it to run better than N4 ;)

---------- Post added at 10:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:01 AM ----------

Titanium Backup reports this correctly but apart from that... Dunno. You could check if it's working with terminal. If You open terminal and type:

df, You will see all the locations Your system uses and information about them. The /sd-ext is the one You need to find.

Mine says 472M Total, 162M Used 310M Free.
[Desire General] bramstoker22:
I'm not really sure I understand what you mean about Titanium Backup.

But I do see the /sd-ext (Size 961.6M, Used 189M, Free 772.6M) and also /data (Size 147.6M, Used 69.5M, Free 78.2M). When uninstalling two apps, the free data portion in both /sd-ext and /data are increasing almost exactly the same (9.7 and 9.9M)

When installing an app, are some data are put in the internal memory and some are put externally? I understood it as that the whole app would be on the SD card.
[Desire General] ntn_labs:
It depends on the app. System apps are put in /system and that is usually located in internal memory. Other apps go to /data and big chunks of data go to /storage0 (or whatever is the sd card mounted to). If you use a2sd the /data is actually located in /sd-ext (which is the extra partition of Your sd card) so Your observation is correct.

PS: in Titanium Backup You can see somewhere in memory status how much You have free and if You are running a2sd and such info.

Hello,

Maybe I am lucky this time. So here we go!

After installing this ROM (CM10 VJ | Jelly Bean 4.1.2 - v3.1) on my HTC Desire, I think I might have some "small" problems:

- Battery drains almost very fast(in one night from 80% to 35%); during day if I use the phone even faster;

- After using for 5 min the WiFi - battery goes from 35% to 30% then suddenly 0% and then phone just stops, and ask me to connect to a charger.

- However I can boot in recovery mode and play in there for long time(this tells me that battery isn't really fully discharged)

- The led that indicates if battery is fully charged becomes green at 90%;

- If I turn off the phone, then connect to charger(when battery level is between 90% and 99%) - the led is orange, and that is correct.

Does anyone else experienced this? Any tips or tricks?

Thank you in advance,

Alex.

Hello,

I also have issues with mounts2sd. Although i have around 70MB free on internal, i cannot install any apps. Updating apps only works for very small apps, not the big ones?!

My system:

Sandisk 16GB Ultra UHS-I

1 gig ext3

no swap

System setup:

- the usual wipe

- install VJ 5.0

- install M2SD through recovery, move apps, cache, dalvik to SD

- reboot

I never had this issue before.. whats wrong now?

When I use the standard a2sd, some apps seem to be automatically uninstalled after reboots... also very weird.
[Desire General] ntn_labs:
Weird thing happened today: wifi AP died and then I couldn't turn it on even after reboot. Was running logcat and shell in two windows but haven't saved any important logs I guess... Only thing I noticed was different was gray signal icon, instead of blue. But data connection to the phone was ok, I tried Chrome and it opened pages, Google Now updated and so on. Gmail had problems and did a "failed connection" every time I hit refresh. And Wifi AP died right after I turned it on (like in 2 seconds).

It lasted for approx. 10 minutes and then gray signal icon turned to blue and Wifi AP was working again (after reboot). Maybe a Google problem?

Okay, I have saved a logcat where it did broke until the first reboot, attaching. And a copy paste of terminal window when it got "fixed" again.

4ext partitioning and formatting

I have been trying to use a2sd with v5.0 and v5.1 but Settings > Storage still always mentioned only 148 MB available for applications. I have obviously run the a2sd script in the terminal (yny) and thus rebooted with every try, but it never worked.

Can someone point out how to exactly partition and format my SD card with 4EXT for VJ's ROMs to work? A more detailed how-to like go to tools > partition sd card and so on, might be very useful.

Can I run the startup wizard (language, Google account and so on) before running a2sd install or should I skip the wizard for example?
[Desire General] ntn_labs:
The storage screen won't show You correct info I guess. Check it with terminal command: "df". If /data is 150 MB (approx.) and /data/app is 500 MB (approx.) then You have app storage linked away from internal memory. Which is what You want.
[Desire General] pancakesmoon:
Confirmed, I clicked thanks! Shouldn't this be posted/linked from the instructions part in the Dev section?
