actually, i am talking about the system profiles (i just love the automation of switching wifi, sync and other settings all at once according to triggers).

and for that matter, i also noticed that configuring triggers do work, nevertheless it says "no triggers selected" when you come back to the edit profile screen.

i didn't try using the multiuser settings. don't really have any need for it yet (although might try separate my personal and my work users in the future). but i did notice the user profile picture changing, which was cool. but i couldn't figure out what causes it. it doesn't happen right after the google account login. it just happens after using the phone for a while.. no problem there, just sharing this mystery.

i simply downloaded the recovery image and flashed it using the Flashify app.

i know some people like flashing directly from the bootloader. you need a flashable zip rightly named to do that.

No new pics in Gallery until reboot

I notice that new pictures taken do not appear in gallery, but can see them browsing with file explorer. The only way I've found to get'em there is by turning off and then on the phone. Tried clearing data and cache from gallery, but no luck.

Would logs be of any help? When should I collect them, after taking a pic? If yes, sorry but I'll need some help with the collection procedure, as I do not have experience with all this stuff.

Thanks in advance.

Sluggish performance

I recently upgraded to this rom after having used cm10.1 and cm11. Compared to them, I have found this one to be very unresponsive and sluggish. I am curious if others are experiencing this as well. Would it be suggested to wipe sd card and do a fresh install?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rjand:
Did you do a full wipe (wipe everything except sdcard) before installing this ROM or did you dirty flash? If you dirty flashed you need to do a full wipe.

After installing the ROM, and giving it a while to boot up (30-45 minutes depending on Gapps installed) you also need to let the ROM settle for a while as a Gapps and a few other apps will be running background processes and the CPU will be max'ed out for a while. Give it another 5-10 minutes before trying to use it. Also removing your sdcard before the first boot will help some of these apps to finish faster.

If you are running at stock CPU speed of 1GHz a small over clock to 1.2GHz makes a big difference to the responsiveness of the phone. I don't advise going any higher than this, but it is up to you. I run my phone at 1.3GHz as I find it to be stable, and when installing apps I over clock to 1.5GHz as it brings down the app installation time quite a bit, but I don't like running at this high of an over clock for extended periods of time as it will most likely cause damage to the phone over time. I am lucky in that I can over clock my phone for 2GHz and find it to be stable, so I find 1.3GHz to be well within what my particular hardware is capable of.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hagarthehorrible:
Yes, I must have done a dirty flash as I didn't wipe anything beforehand. As far as the gapps, I only ever use the pico sized one. So far I haven't tried any overclocking but I will try your suggestion of 1.2 or 1.3 ghz. Thanks.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hagarthehorrible:
I wiped everything, including sd card and started with fresh install of Feb 6 nightly. Performance has improved a lot, everything appears to be a lot smoother and faster. I was notified of 3 new updates of CyanogenMod, for the last 3 days, how often or when should I do an update?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mustaavalkosta:
As often as you want. There will be new build every day if nothing breaks the build process. There will be different release channel, M-snapshots, which will only update ~once a month after upstream (CM) has finished code freeze and branches for M1. You can also use that after it's been released and receive updates much less often. This may require full wipe though as crossing release channels is not always very good idea.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mustaavalkosta:
When you find some build stable. This will likely stay in beta all the way just like CM11 did. It's up to you when it's stable enough for you. I'm not having any special lag issues though. If you are using inspiremod try a installation without it.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamSMR:
Sorry but I am new in this thing. Can you please explain it more easily... :(
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rjand:
There probably won't be an official CM12 stable release, as there wasn't for CM11. As this is an unofficial CM12 ROM, there definitely won't be a stable release.

The last stable CM release for our device was CM7, or Android 2.3, as that was the last Android version HTC released the source code for.

When you decide the ROM is stable is up to you - most users will already find it stable enough for them to use as their daily driver, I find it more stable than the stock Android 2.2 / 2.3 my phone came with. It won't be as fast as Android 2.2 or 2.3, but as there is no HTC Sense interface layered on top of Android it should be fast enough without lag, although depending on what additional apps you install to make the phone usable for yourself, the amount of lag will vary.

I have similar apps installed as on CM11, with a similar CPU overclock, and Greenify set up in the same way and I find little difference in speed and responsiveness as compared to CM11 - a few apps are faster and a few are slower. I have tested with a higher overclock than I had on CM11, and my phone was faster than it was on CM11, but normally I run with a small overclock, and the same settings as I did with CM11. If I find my phone getting laggy / unresponsive, I just press the power button and let Greenify do its stuff, screen back on after about 70 secs and the phone is responsive again.

Does the Kernel support OTG for Inspire 4G

Hi Musta,

I am having HTC Inspire 4G and running CM12 Nightly build. Many thanks for the wonderful work and as many other said keeping our devices live with the newer versions!

I have a question regarding OTG support for this Kernel. I tried connecting a Mass Storage device using OTG cable, but the device do not recognize it. I searched and found few issues like issue with cable or with filesystem on mass storage device. So, I tried checking it with couple of cables and it did not help. I also tried with NTFS, FAT 32 filesyetm on Mass storage device and it did not help either. I can see OS support it and has the required API, however not sure if the Kernel supports it or not. I tried using Stickmount, OTG checker and Diagnostic apps but none of them could detect the device.

I am not an experienced person and has very minimal understanding of Android architecture. So, it would be great if you can help me with this query. Please let me know if you need any further information for the response and excuse me if it is not the right forum for this question.

Thanks in advance!

Reflashing boot

Hey!

In your OP it says to always reflash boot.img after updating or flashing, but i updated my phone trough the build-in cyanogenmod updater and forgot to flash it. My phone booted up fine and i cant find any problems, even trikstermod shows all the kernel options.

Just wanted you to know, keep up the good work!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mustaavalkosta:
You are missing out kernel changes and potentially can make your system go into bootloop if you skip that part. This doesn't mean it can't work without reflashing boot.img, just means it poses higher risk of breaking something if you don't flash it.

With our single core processor and limited RAM each newer version of Android is only going to get slower.

How I got CM12 installed on my HTC Desire HD

Hi! Hope this helps somoeone who may be in trouble getting CyanogenMod 12 (Android 5 - Lollipop) to work with the HTC Desire HD.

The steps are as simple as described on the initial thread's page, but I had an extra work installing TWRP (unofficial) in order for the flash to work.

Thus, before the instructions contained in http://xdaforums.com/htc-desire-hd/development/unofficial-cyanogenmod-12-doge-preview-t2951781, I had to follow instructions contained here: http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/6

From the link http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2780164, I went to a list of the unofficial TWRP images:

http://downloads.codefi.re/jrior001/Ace

I downloaded the latest: openrecovery-TWRP-ace-2.8.5.2-unofficial.img

Once downloaded, I had to reboot the phone into recovery mode. I did it with adb:

adb reboot-bootloader

Once there and ensuring I was connected via USB, I flashed the recovery image with:

fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-TWRP-ace-2.8.5.2-unofficial.img

Then I rebooted into recovery mode, did a backup (just in case) and started the flashing process, as described in the initial thread.

Well, hope that helps...

get-prebuilts not available in source code

Hi there,

I wanted to build cm12 for my HTC Desire HD from sources and followed the description in the original post.

porting cm12 for ace to Android 5.1

Hi there,

I successfully created a new build for my ace.

Unfortunately, it's still Android 5.0.2 ;)

Is there an easy way to update that to the newly released Android 5.1?

Is it as easy as

(1) patching .repo/manifest.xml and changing the remote repository "aosp" to the following:

<remote name="aosp"
fetch="https://android.googlesource.com"
review="android-review.googlesource.com"
revision="refs/tags/android-5.1.0_r1" />

(2) patching build/core/version_defaults.mk and changing PLATFORM_VERSION to

PLATFORM_VERSION := 5.0.2

(of course followed by a local commit and a repo sync...)

If not, what's the correct approach? Or is it not so easy at all?

At the beginning, everything seems to work well (repo sync downloads lots of files), but when having lunch, a message appears saying

"Trying dependencies-only mode on a non-existing device tree?"

When building, it takes a long time where no progress is seen on the screen, and then the process stops claiming many missing src directories.

Does anyone know what might be wrong or how to solve the issue?

Best regards,

Boxy
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mustaavalkosta:
You can't just go around changing version strings. It's not version number that is changing with new versions. Code is changing and then version numbers will reflect that code change. You will have to merge all the changes from 5.0.2 to 5.1 on every repo on the manifest (or well the ones that have received changes since 5.0.2). This will also update the version strings accordingly.

If build doesn't crash, it's generally safe to assume any scary looking notifications from the build system as warning which can often be disregarded.

I am currently using ROM cm-7.2.0-ace Kernel 2.6.35.14 . Of course I have bootloader unlocked but my phone is still S-ON.

Yesterday I tried to upgrade to Lollipop using this "how to" http://www.teamandroid.com/2015/02/...esire-hd-cyanogenmod12-lollipop-custom-rom/2/

but I was always receiving an Installation aborted from my Recovery (I tried using latest CWM and TWRP for HTC Desire HD too).

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BoxyK:
Ok, got that.

Does that mean that when specifying "refs/tags/android-5.1.0_r1" as revision in defining the remote repository is not enough?

I thought that then the correct files for 5.1 will be loaded.

So do you mean:

(a) just specifying "refs/tags/android-5.1.0_r1" in the remote repository configuration "aosp" in the file .repo/manifest.xml is not enough to get the newest bits? Do I have to dig into the single projects and get the latest commits? (--> how to do so?)

or

(b) specifying "refs/tags/android-5.1.0_r1" in the mainfest.xml is okay for the pure aosp sources but I need to change other remote repository definitions as well?

I'm quite unsure on how to proceed. If you have a good source where I can get more information on this, this would also be helpful.
