Do you have the ADB drivers installed on your computer? .... might be there where your problem is.....or annother conflicting driver on your computer....google the forums for ADB driver MTK Vcom driver install.... as i get it the computer wont know how to talk linux without the ADB pack.......i think its included in some vcom driver packs but i do believe i had to install that separatly the first time.....check that out...cause it should work.....if now try it with annother computer...could be some crap driver on your computer messing it up...i had an emulator at one point messing my spflashtool up....

stock ROM goophone-i5-0428-f-yzs.zip

So , I don't think so that problem is the driver, because SP flash tool works fine when I try to update firmware , it's finish all task , but then the mobile doesn't start . I think that I don't have correct ROM . I tried 3 different ROM and mobile still not start up . Still just blink screen and that's all . And then I have to some how switch off . Then I'm able to do update again trough SP flash Tool , but I need correct one ROM.

I tried to find stock ROM Goophone-i5-0428-f-yzs.zip , but I found it only on some crazy Chinese site 400GB.com (file/19858713) and I was unable to download it .:silly:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] virre62:
are you sure its a goophone you have?

Also..... your phone NEEDS to be charged with ATLEAST 60% or it will fail....flashing really drains the battery and ive had flashings fail just cause of low battery......but yee.... if its not a real goophone it wont work either way.... or if its annother model....you need to have the correct rom for the right phone or it will fail 99,5% of the times..

dont think i can do much more for u.....running out of ideas......it should work with that assuming your hardware is good.

stock ROM goophone-i5-0428-f-yzs.zip

I saw some fake goophone on net , but it was with dual core CPU MTK 6587 etc ...

When I download SU and some other app like CPU Z ,etc I checked and I didn't see any suspicions information . So I hope that it is real Goophone i5 N2 ...

When I finished update firmware I saw in SP Flash tool that it's show some device info , so I'll add tomorrow another screen from this app.And try to verify if it's original goophone i5 N2 .

But this info about at least 60% of batter is important! Because it was charged about 50 % when I run update!

But process of flashing finished without any errors and in the end I saw Green circle , SO I was thinking that It's was finished successfully .....

Important question is . What should be done after updating new Firmware ?

I just tried to Start up the mobile .Should I do anything else ?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] virre62:
well if you get the green circle then its most probably that your out of battery......leave the phone charging for some hours... flash it and when your doen unplug it from the computer and just start it and wait cause the first boot up usually takes time,.....maybe up to 2-10 min depending on what rom u flashed......if you dont have enough battery to complete first boot you might run in to problems.....and if you wanna test your hardware you press the volume + and power and you get in to the factory hardware test menu just if u wanna make sure that ur phone is ok
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ja.viper:
OK

I'll charging phone trough night . I'll try it tomorrow again . What should be in the end of the process of updating new firmware ? Instead of green circle .

I tried to start up to factory mode , but without success . ;(

Thanks for all advice . !!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] virre62:
the green circle tells you that the rom was successfully loaded on to your phone......its sounding more and more like a low battery issue..... charge the phone with the wall plug over the night and tomorrow you flash the phone and boot it up ;)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ja.viper:
So I tried it with full charged telephone . I can't check if its' full charged , because it doesn't respond at all .But it charge trough whole night .

I did flash again , I have 2 screen shoots ,all looks correct . I tried to start up mobile after that ... I wait for 15 mins and nothing happend .

I can't to go to the Factory menu (pover btn & volume - )or Recovery menu (pwr btn & vol + )

It's not shown any logo , when screen is wake up .

My last try will be with original ROM from Goophopne i5 N2 which I just downloading .

//UPDATE

So I download stock ROM , but it's not in format for flashing via SP flash tool , but it's archive file for install from SD card from recovery mod, which I unfortunately can't run :(

So I have to sent it back to seller . ...

Fixes & Add-On's

Restore Stock Font - removes the preinstalled custom font, and replaces it with the Jellybean's default Roboto font.

Restore Stock Lockring - removes the chromium logo lockring, and replaces it with the stock lockring.

Fix Tearing (Build 10 ONLY) - fixes graphical tearing issues found in build 10. It is no longer needed to use the "Disable HW overlays" option.

Disable Button Backlight - disables the backlight on the desires hardware buttons.

White Softkeys - Replaces the holo blue softkeys with white ones

More Stuff & FAQ

How do I disable Navigation Bar?

Settings > Chromium ROM settings > Button Height > 0dp (off)

Im getting graphical issues & tearing throughout some apps in build 10. How do I fix this?

First go to Settings > About phone > Tap on Build number 7 times. That will enable the Developer options menu. Go into it and enable "Disable HW overlays".

This should solve all of these issues, but keep in mind that this option does not stick after a reboot. Therefore you will need to re-enable it upon each boot.

**There is now a fix for this - Download and flash it from the Fixes & Add-On's section above**

Recommended Settings for Performance:

First go to Settings > About phone > Tap on Build number 7 times. That will enable the Performance menu. Then go into it and choose these:

Processor:

CPU Governor - Performance

Min CPU Freq. - 460MHz

Max CPU Freq - 1113MHz

I/O scheduler:

I/O scheduler - CFQ

Memory management:

zRam - 26%

Allow purging of assets - Enabled

KSM - Enabled

Also install Nova launcher, as Trebuchet (the stock launcher) seems to be a bit laggy.

Here are some screenshots of the battery life im getting after a day of heavy usage:

Almost 4 hours of screen on time...Keep in mind that i still have another 20% battery left in the screenshots.

I havent used it for long enough yet. But after about 3 days i havent encountered anything too big. Only issue ive noticed is that sometimes the phone doesnt wake immediately when it is locked (when you press the lock button it takes a couples seconds for the screen to turn on

wifi works fine for me. Try asking in the q&a section

also i completely forgot to add a gapps download...i was too focused on getting the rom to boot. So does anyone have a gapps package that works well with this? Let me know and I'll add it to the OP. One more thing, has anyone tested jelly hboot? Should work fine, just wondering

You could copy the systemui.apk into another ROM, but its possible that it won't work.

Or you could just download the soft keys that you want and manually put them into your ROMs systemui yourself...that's guaranteed to work.

[Desire Android Development] Malk4ever:
I'm using Build 8.

I guess i can turn this off? I don't like it.
[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
Yea im getting some tearing as well. It seems to be a product of the bionic commits added in this new build. Like someone said above, try enabling "Disable HW overlays" in developer options. It seems to have fixed it for me.

Yep, its added. Thats the only difference between the beta i sent you and the one i released here.

Thanks for the kind words. :) There probably wont be an update for a while now, as I've just started school again :( , but im pretty happy/proud of build 10 for now.

Im guessing you mean build 9, because build 8 doesnt have those features.

To turn it off:

build 9- Settings > Chromium ROM settings > Expanded desktop > Status bar visible. Hold power button for a few seconds until power menu comes up and then choose Expanded desktop.

build 10- Settings > Chromium ROM settings > Button Height > 0dp (off)

I would highly suggest updating to build 10. Its definitely a lot faster and smoother.

there is something wrong with a2sd-script @ my device,

i did as mentioned in 1st post but in settings->memory it shows up only 148MB Mem, but i have 4GB ext4,

when starting ultraexplorer and directing to /data it says: 138MB free, but /data/app has 3,8GB, also /data/data

there are a lot of apps that say on install: not enough memory ....
[Desire Android Development] Malk4ever:
Thats really big, I'm not sure if it works with such a big Ext-partition.

Recommendered is 1024-1536MB.
[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
As said above, 4gb is quite excessive. Technically it will work, but it could cause issues and slow performance. I would recommend 512mb - 2gb.

When you activate a2sd using "y, n, y" you are moving the apps (apks) and dalvik cache to the ext partition on your sd card, however the app data remains on the sdcard. This is too improve performance on crappy sdcards. Therefore over time your actual internal memory (148mb) will get filled with app data. I currently have just over 50 apps installed with a 1gb ext partition and stock hboot. I still have around 200mb left on the ext partition and about 20mb left on my internal storage. Not too bad if you ask me.
[Desire Android Development] zen-86:
First of all, thank you for job well done. I've been using your rom since v8 and it's awesome.

I just updated to v10 and it's really smooth, but I also had this issue.

Now, this does the job, but every time I restart phone, this option is disabled. Is this known issue or I did something wrong?
[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
Thanks :) The option is not sticking for me after a reboot as well, so it looks like its a universal cm bug...not just you.

For now I think you'll just have to re-enable the option after each boot. :(
[Desire Android Development] JohnSparrow:
Are there any issues with this ROM?

Especially with video recording.
[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
Nope, its just pure über awesomeness. Jk...video recording doesnt work too well. You might be able to use a third party app to get it working properly, but since im not much of a video taking guy i cant really tell you. Anyone have any experience with this?

Everything else seems to be ok though. :)
[Desire Android Development] aelfinn:
Like the font, btw. Just one thing: the bold hours in the stock clock app are set a little below the baseline. I guess that’s a bug?
[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
Yea, for some reason the clock app does not use the system wide Roboto Thin font, and instead uses the one packaged along with the app. Its very confusing why Google decided for the app to specifically use its own thin font. :confused:

To fix this little graphic annoyance you would have to decompile the DeskClock.apk and replace the Roboto-Thin.ttf file located in /assets/fonts with the one located in system/fonts.
[Desire Android Development] lorenzolalas:
Hey guys,

I'm experiencing a strange behavior.

The CPU doesn't want to go deep sleep when the screen is off. So i have a quite big battery drain. Is anybody having the same ?

On wakelock detector, everything seems to be normal...

Thx
[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
Have you changed the CPU governor?
[Desire Android Development] lorenzolalas:
No, same as usual, on demand, 245-1113 MHz.

I've lost 40% screen off wifi off betwern 9 AM this morning till 11 PM tonight.
[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
Woah! Thats not good. Im not having any issues with battery....as you can see from those screenshots in the second post i was getting pretty good battery life even with my governor changed to performance. Im pretty sure 1113MHz is overclocked, right? Have you tried underclocking back to the default speed? Also have you installed anything that caused this to suddenly occur?
[Desire Android Development] lorenzolalas:
OK thanks, i've dirty flashed the beta and the build 10, so the issue may come from that.

I will tell you when i will make a clean install this we.
[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
I highly doubt thats the issue, as i the only difference between the beta i sent you and the one i released was trackpad wake, but i guess its worth a try. Let me know :)
[Desire Android Development] lorenzolalas:
OK then, it seems a simple reboot solved the problem.

But there's an issue with the parameters to apply on boot. The CPU max scaling is going back to stock 998 MHz after a reboot whatever you've set before.

Same with the GPU overlay unchecked.
[Desire Android Development] aelfinn:
Piece of cake for you, right? ;)
[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
For the CPU Frequencies are you enabling the "Set on boot" option. The developer options not sticking seems to be a universal cm bug.

Yea if you really want it fixed, i can quickly create a flashable zip for you. Would you like that?

It'll be fixed in the next update, but like i said a few pages back: now that ive got school to deal with, the next update probably wont be soon :(
[Desire Android Development] aelfinn:
Ooooh, that would be super sweet! :)
[Desire Android Development] lorenzolalas:
Yes of course i've checked set on boot.

I'm investigating.
[Desire Android Development] ltGuillaume:
Just installed this ROM, quite impressed!

However, some Android 2.2+ apps do not install (apks) / are marked incompatible in the Google Play Store. Examples: Google Goggles, 9292

Is this related to this specific ROM? Couldn't find anything about it...

Please ignore, I've fixed it already :)

This ROM seems very nice, I'll try ASAP.

I have seen your battery life in the second post and I have a question. How old is your battery?

Because with VJ ROM my phones does only 2h of screen time but my battery is 3 years old. :(
[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
Well i bought my desire used (not sure how long the previous owner used it for), and ive been using the phone for around a year.

Try it out and see how it goes. Also i wouldnt recommend those settings in the second post for good battery life anymore. Those were simply to get the best performance in the older builds, but now that build 10 is smooth/fast by default its probably more wise to lower the performance settings or leave them on stock to get good battery.
[Desire Android Development] aelfinn:

build 10

Yet again a great build.

Honestly, on the second post I would edit CPU governance to "Ondemand". As a matter of fact, the only performance difference with "performance" is for very short task, mainly sliding effects. Since they are smooth with "ondemand", the actual result of changing is a slightly improved battery life. No idea what's the best option for minimal frequence.

Another thing you may mention in the second post, is that stock Hboot is suggested to run your ROM since, at least in my experience, smaller /systems are not bootable. This is becoming the reference ROM for desire, and still based only on the experience of my own phone, I would also suggest the possibility (to users that dare bricking their phones) to update radio, since it made a remarkable difference for me.

This is a personal list of things I would change if ever a possible new build is realeased, but I understand that other users may have a different point of view:

-no email app preinstalled

-"no wallpaper" option instead of "Cromium Wallpapers" (as in good old gingerbread CM)

-A "set on reboot" option for "disable HW overlays" (alas, this requires coding on CM)

I passed the Desire phone to somebody else, but still I insisted on flashing build10 ;) Thanks for all this work, just remember not to neglect school now :)
[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
Thanks :) I completely agree with you...like i said a couple posts above, those settings were only really useful for the previous slower builds. Now that build 10 is genuinely fast by default, its not necessary to overclock and change the cpu governor. Like you said, if you increase the performance settings on build 10 i highly doubt you'll notice that much of a change in speed, and you'll ultimately end up with crap battery life. Ill try to change the second post a bit when ive got some time.
[Desire Android Development] solox:
How is batterylife compared to when using Pixeldroid?
[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
I havent used PixelDroid for an extended period of time, so i cant really compare, but its probably about the same.

I can easily get 3-4 hours of screen on time with decently heavy usage, using all default performance settings, and greenify.

Everyones usage varies, so the best way to find out is to try it out and compare for yourself.
