Its been some time since i updated to cm or other non sense roms. I'm s-off rooted, was on viper 3.0 ics rom, wanted to try cm12. Updated recovery to twrp 2.8.5.2 and factory reset then flashed cm12, no problem.

But then it started booting, and cyanogen flash screen showed for more than 20mins, nothing happened. so i pulled battery and tried to go back to viper 3.0 but got assert failed: write_raw_image("/tmp/newboot.img", "boot") when aroma tried to flash kernel. I had to fastboot flash old recovery in order to flash viper so i could use my phone again.

What am i doing wrong?
[Desire HD Android Development] 13lack13ox:
Its take quite a bit of time on first boot. Should just be patient.

First boot takes around 40-50 minutes, and some users reported first boot times 85 minutes.

Seriously just gotta wait n watch, if you aren't boot looping I'd say let it be. GL

It's all in the first few pages, users reporting about the long boot times, on initial boot.
[Desire HD Android Development] acamarin:
Ok, finally managed to boot it, it looks real nice, but is very slow, our old DHD just cant handle lollypop. So i wanted to get back to Viper, couldnt go to recovery trough rom manager or superuser, adb too didnt work so i had to vol down power to recovery (or bootloader then recovery). Factory reset and aroma install of Viper again got assert failed: write_raw_image("/tmp/newboot.img", "boot"), so i had to reflash 4ext recovery and then it flashed viper ok. Strange...
[Desire HD Android Development] rjand:
Some of the older ROM's require an older recovery to install.

CM12 can be laggy, especially compared to older versions of Android, there are ways to speed it up, but generally any thing memory or i/o intensive will be slow to open, but okay in use.

OTA server / client

I took an exile from dull home environment to the countryside to finish this in-house OTA implementation and now its initial version is available on Github:

OTA API server

OTA mirror file scanner

If someone here is experienced in PHP / Python and wants to participate now would be perfect time for suggestions before I nail it down for production. I'll continue testing this on beta domain first and if everything seems to be working I will replace our current system with this new one. OTA backend may experience some downtimes due to this migration so don't be surprised if OTA app fails to check for updates in the coming days.

Someone will surely ask this so here are a few benefits from this:

External mirrors can be setup (single file can't have multiple mirrors yet)

Tidyness thus easier to make future changes

MySQL data storage (vs. direct file scanning + memcached)
[Desire HD Android Development] graziano68:
Thanks ! Will be possible an upgrade from 12 to 12.1 using OTA and without reinstalling apps and settings ?

[Desire HD Android Development] Mustaavalkosta:
OTA backend migration done

OTA system's backend stuff is now running on the new code and seems to be working fine at least on CM12.0. Let me know if you notice something broken with it that wasn't there before.

[Desire HD Android Development] Mustaavalkosta:
New build schedule

So now that 12 and 12.1 are both running relatively ok and support OTA I think it's time to nail down new build schedule. This is subject to change even in very near future but for now this is what I came up with as far as our builds are concerned.

CM 11.0: weekly build every Saturday

CM 12.0: 3 builds a week (Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday)

CM 12.1: 4 builds a week (Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday)

I think this should be quite fair on codefi.re server resources (which are shared among many people) while providing frequent builds for each version of CyanogenMod. As I already said this is subject to change based on what upstream will do with their branches. If cm-11.0 branch is frozen then there's no point keep those builds going either because there won't be any changes. In a nutshell, this will be a bit fluid situation for a while still until I see what will happen upstream.

I've just done that jumping from CM 12 version 2015-04-03 to CM 12.1. latest version 2015-04-13.

3 reboots before successful booting. The low system memory (free up to 250 MB then reboot) warning at the end, but otherwise seems working.

Tried to delete bootanimation.zip as I've read in CM Nightlies 12.1 thread, but couldn't.

UPDATE: My fault, didn't provide permissions to file manager app for deletion. Now it's ok, low system memory warning disappeared.

Ready file TWRP 2.8.6.1

Ready file twrp 2.8.6.1 for bootloader
[Desire HD Android Development] Liell:
Hello

I'm stuck on recovery with the CyanogenRecovery, I've tried to update to 04-18 nightly, but it doesn't boot, i get back to recovery each time.

I can move to bootloader, or go to cyanogenrecovery, but since i've got only the zip from 04-18, I can't do much.

Could give me some tricks to solve my case ?

I know I can take my sdcard on a computer, but i don't have one with Sd-slot at home, so is there a way to connect the phone via data cable and access to the sdcard with this recovery ?

And how change the cyanogen recovery to TWRP which I'm sure I've installed ?

Otherwise I'm ready to wipe the system, but if you know another way, I'm looking forward to it :)

Thanks
[Desire HD Android Development] Mustaavalkosta:
First of all, you shouldn't toggle "Update Cyanogen recovery" under Developer options. It may work but it's not something that is supported.

If you can't move one of these bootloader zips to your sdcard you have to use fastboot (in bootloader in fastboot mode with USB cable plugged in from a PC that has android platform tools installed) to flash the recovery image.

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
[Desire HD Android Development] pat99:
[MENTION=4446031]Liell[/MENTION].

Fastboot files if needed. Check attachments.
[Desire HD Android Development] Liell:
Thanks, but I don't know how to use this, since my fastboot works, is it a file for the computer ? I installed Android SDK (800 Mo) but didn't found how to load my SD on data cable, I fell like I've installed all adobe photoshop pack to open a jpeg file, and didn't success ... :)

I've finally got TWRP recovery instead of Cyanogen's one and after updating the last nightly (same file again !), the phone boots right, so users should know that TWRP is really the one to use, do not check like me the wrong option.

Thanks again [MENTION=3382363]Mustaavalkosta[/MENTION] for this rom !

PS : I've had to flash gapps to get Play to work again ... FYI
[Desire HD Android Development] 13lack13ox:
If you wanted to flash recovery via fastboot, you shouldnt have to load anything on your sd card. All you would need to do is download TWRPrecovery.img. Open a cmd prompt. CD to your C:\androidSDK\sdk\platform-tools directory then use the fast boot command

fastboot flash recovery TWRPrecovery.img

You can test usb connectivity with

fastboot devices

This will only work if your in the bootloader in fastboot mode however.

Glad you got it working none the less, happy droidin'!

ODP server maintenance

There will be maintenance around 30th of April - 1st of May on our server to bring in Debian Jessie updates. I don't have a slightest idea how nuclear it will go so either there'll be next to no downtime, or it will go full nuclear and there'll be huge downtime while I evaluate my life decisions and spank some wood with an axe to cool off before proceeding to pick up the pieces of what's left.

Naturally, OTA and download mirror (dl.opendesireproject.org) services will be affected by this in addition to landing site and bugzilla. I'll probably upgrade bugzilla to a new version at the same time. I'll leave a message here once the maintenance is completed.

[Desire HD Android Development] Mustaavalkosta:
And you are 100% sure that you are using TWRP 2.8.1.2 or newer? Pull /tmp/recovery.log after unsuccessful flash and upload it somewhere.

adb pull /tmp/recovery.log
[Desire HD Android Development] bobbymd:
Ok I'll do that but I can't understand why it's happening

[Desire HD Android Development] rjand:

[Desire HD Android Development] rjand:
I'm assuming you don't have any sort of online file hosting available to use, you can attach the log to a your next post on this thread.

[Desire HD Android Development] chrmica:
My volume key down does not work so cannot get into recovery ,pulled out the board and tried many ways but button contact seems broken, the phone boots but goes into a black screen and if press power button the captive buttons light up and with adb when phone off its detected as offline, when I switch on and goes into black screen phone is not detected by adb ! So I found no software solution to this issue since button broken and phone cannot boot properly.
[Desire HD Android Development] pat99:
Exactly with Vol. Down button broken phone won't boot properly, In fact i had the same issue, couple days ago. Luckily it was easy task for me as i've opened my device a year ago, so i know where it could possibly go wrong. So here's i would like to advise something, which may be helpful.

As you wrote here you've tried many ways but button contact seems broken. Try complete dissemble your device, If Vol. Up working than there are highly positive chance of Vol. Down to work, if not then don't read further. :)

First up i'm not a sort of technician so words/name could be different but after reading this you'll get the idea, what i'm talking about. So after dissembling your device, try lifting up Vol panel as it is in T- Shaped, Lower part goes underneath on side,so lift up gently. Under that you'll find few copper mash work, try cleaning them with cloth, Usually due to sweat n dust there dust accumulates and later becomes greasy, so we felt like Vol. Down is broken but actually its not. Well that was certainly my case. If you cleaned it and try contact ring put in center and stick with tape and re-assemble will solve your issue.

Search on YouTube for dissemble video for Desire HD to avoid any damage while doing it.
[Desire HD Android Development] chrmica:
I took the t-shaped circut and bottom contact of button is damaged and not clickable and used contact cleaner to clean, is it possible to short the circut in some away so that it triggers volume down it seems the t-shaped componment is not replaceable. Thanks
[Desire HD Android Development] pat99:
Try creating thread onto Desire HD Q & A and Troubleshoooting, thus more people can engage and try to resolve your issue.

And most importantly, It'll keep this thread clean.
[Desire HD Android Development] chrmica:
Well tempoary fixed the button contact by using hair drier and seperated contact from circut and it worked I could click the volume down and select recovery from boot. :)

[MENTION=3382363]Mustaavalkosta[/MENTION] will you permit me to post An Alpha build of Gapps specially made by me based on the Alpha build for Lollipop on the PA's thread? For testing purposes only until PA officially release it builds.

I have been on for some days now and it's working pretty well.

Expect for some cases that it lags a bit which I know its an from the official build :p maybe.

Its features Google Search and Playstore alongside all the GMSCore apps.

Thanks
[Desire HD Android Development] Mustaavalkosta:
I don't think I'm in a position to permit or prohibit you to do anything, moderators do that, so go ahead but I hope everyone here understands that this is not the correct place to start debugging those gapps when issues arise. We don't maintain gapps package and this thread is not for gapps issues unless the issue is ROM related. Maybe you should consider doing a separate thread which you can link here to avoid moderator intervention in this thread.
[Desire HD Android Development] xdagee:
Alright I will do just that, maybe a newer thread so we can handle gapps and its related issues mainly for our device. Thanks [MENTION=3382363]Mustaavalkosta[/MENTION] ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] Mustaavalkosta:
Yeah, I will add something there too once we are out of the preview period. Release notes have mention about the long boot time though.

Telephony is still undergoing some changes. At least mobile data should be fixed in the next build thanks to Phantom Shadow. Gapps issues are not yet something I'm concerned about. Alpha means alpha with those too. :) Specific game crashes can also wait for later date when things have stabilized a bit.

[Desire HD Android Development] asim.sidz:
I just flashed the 4-23 build as recommended by [MENTION=5861426]marknoll[/MENTION] and it worked like charm. Took 5 minutes at the booting logo and 3 minutes for "Android is upgrading". Looks like we have come a long way with reducing first boot up times as i remember that this duration was much longer during the DOGE previews. The ROM works fine, just felt that the battery is dying very soon.

Overclocking makes the system very unstable unlike kitkat. I had some random restarts during initial hours but it died down i dont know how. One issue caught my attention, under the " About" menu, the lollipop official game is pretty laggy. Not that the game is important but i'm looking at it from a view of benchmarking. Does anybody's DHD here play that game smoothly? Just curious..

Overall, a very nice ROM. So it was not an issue with the new TWRP but with the specific nightly. Thank you to the wonderful community here, especially [MENTION=3382363]Mustaavalkosta[/MENTION], [MENTION=5861426]marknoll[/MENTION] and others.
[Desire HD Android Development] Mustaavalkosta:
I just flashed 20150505 build just fine on TWRP 2.8.6.1 so whatever it is you are experiencing is not universal. You should try to get some logs for jrior001 since this isn't 100% reproducible. Also it's probably better to discuss TWRP recovery issues in TWRP thread.
