camera quality is fine (for better quality go into camera settings, more settings and set quality to 100%, but that does slow it down a bit and the standard 85% is fine for me), xposed fix does create a few minor issues(the latest cm secutity fixes in this rom prevents xposed installing without the "hacked" fix) so unless you really need xposed just use themes like Lkat dark and apps like folder mount to to improve the experience without xposed.
[HTC Desire 610] noumannomii93:
thank you so much!!!!!!!!! I love you dude, i was gonna buy a new device but with your help i am saved. Thanks a lot!!!! I cant thank you much
[HTC Desire 610] magicstick5:
Same here, 2 months ago I was pleading my dad to get me a zenphone 2
[HTC Desire 610] MGfusion:
Wow, the regular cm camera sucks but the Google camera with HDR on is way better, and it feels as though it uses the whole 8 megapixels it was built with
[HTC Desire 610] MGfusion:
Well I'm back again with another question, and today its if I can re

-partition the internal storage? Just curious, I would like to do this to maybe add like 500mb of ram, as roehsoft ram expander does not really work for me :(
[HTC Desire 610] MiniBlu:
It is possible (may need soff), but very risky (easy to hard brick your phone) and once done you would need your own custom recovery (twrp) to be able to flash anything. Try to install "kernel auditor" instead and play with virtual memory settings (maybe use zram).

Do a full backup first as kernel auditor will let you try a lot of things that may cause problems.
[HTC Desire 610] MGfusion:
OK will do now, thanks a lot
[HTC Desire 610] magicstick5:
Has anyone experienced lag with l kat light? I'm using it with flat style colored bars and sometimes the phone lags out on me
[HTC Desire 610] MGfusion:
Only if i change the themes around a lot, other than that I'm lagless
[HTC Desire 610] MiniBlu:
Are you using the xposed fix. Only time I saw lag was when trialling themes with xposed. Without xposed fix I've had no problems with themes.
[HTC Desire 610] magicstick5:
I think I'm using xposed fix since xposed is working, now lag is so much more. Always running out of ram, phone won't wake some times.
[HTC Desire 610] DaGWaR:
did a teardown of mine (ATT) version and saw some components are missing for nfc :( jus for future reference to anyone with att version that wants NFC

at the bottom where the nfc antenna connect
[HTC Desire 610] MiniBlu:
- First up, go into settings > apps > running apps and check both "running services" and " cached processes" and see if you can see a rouge app that is eating your ram. If so try and remove it.

- If you are running any mods ie. ram expander, kernel tweaks, xposed modules. Disable them, then reboot to recovery and wipe dalvic and cache the reboot and test.

- If the above doesn't fix you problems then use the xposed installer app to uninstall the xposed framework (no need to uninstall the app (all your modules and data will stay there ready to be re-enabled), Then reboot to recovery and dirty flash the rom again (don't flash anything else just the rom) then wipe dalvic and cache and reboot. This should have you back to a clean state. Test it for a bit to see if your problems are gone before adding back any modifications, if you do still have problems in this state you will probably have to do a factory reset but you can pm me a logcat and kmesg first if you like and I'll try to figure out what app is causing it (i have given instuctions for taking these in an earlier post). If all is good at this point you can start adding back modifications 1 at a time (testing in between) to detemine which mods are causing you the problems.

I suspected as much since at&t have their own build variant with a different screen (although you could probably add a DIY antenna yourself). Mine is an Asia variant and has all the hardware but it was disabled in software on the stock rom.
[HTC Desire 610] MGfusion:
I'm running a ton of themes, xposed modules, and have a ton of apps but ram usage seems fines to me, a small spike here and there but it maintains it all pretty well
[HTC Desire 610] magicstick5:
The MiniBlu, I did pinpoint the problem. It was an app called sefix, which changes entropy. Disabled ramexpander and it was smoother. I report back I I have any problems. Any may I ask anyone: what is the amount of ram you normally have free when running a theme? Mine is around 180mb, but I'm running flat style bars on xposed. But weirdly, it is very smooth after if dirty flashed again.
[HTC Desire 610] MiniBlu:
For me about 350 to 400 with Lkat dark. After a week or 2 without a reboot it gets down to about 200 so I guess there's a small memory leak somewhere, but rebooting once a week keeps it in check.
[HTC Desire 610] MGfusion:
I usually hang around at 350 to 400 thanks to greenify
[HTC Desire 610] wo88les:
damn it, the sim reader just failed on my phone ? I can't solder so it's a wifi only device now
[HTC Desire 610] magicstick5:
Same here
[HTC Desire 610] DaGWaR:
Some resistors missing too.. found the antenna online selling but the resistors would be needed
[HTC Desire 610] magicstick5:
Just uninstalled xposed (or disabled) it. It's buttery smooth, will try with xposed again
[HTC Desire 610] magicstick5:
Reinstalled xposed, just kept 2 modules on: greenify and flat style colored bars.

Seems smooth
[HTC Desire 610] magicstick5:
With xposed?
[HTC Desire 610] MGfusion:
I really only use xposed to make my device look like lollipop, but once cm12 is out, there will be no need for it
[HTC Desire 610] MiniBlu:
I'm not using xposed. but from memory it was not much less when i was.
[HTC Desire 610] leen12:
cool rom nice work good to see someone tryin for desire 610
[HTC Desire 610] magicstick5:
How's cm12 going? Are you building from source or compiling it?

---------- Post added at 11:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:06 PM ----------

For me with xposed installed, you get 100-200 mb of ram free
[HTC Desire 610] MiniBlu:
Cm 12 is going slowly as I have too much real work on at the moment to put much time into it (hopefully next week). Building = Compiling and both are done from source code. I was patching my cm 11 kernel up to the cm 12.1 kernel but found it was less work to just start with the cm 12.1 kernel and patch my a3ul commits into it (which is done now). I still have to finish getting my build environment set right for lollipop and once I get a successful build done for the one m8 (to prove the build environment and sources are correct) then the fun of finding and adding lollipop updated vendor libs and prebuilts for the a3ul specific hardware begins (I already have most of it but 1 of the cameras may be a problem).
[HTC Desire 610] magicstick5:
So the kernel is ready
[HTC Desire 610] magicstick5:
And is this the last cm11 build? (Since its stable now)
[HTC Desire 610] MiniBlu:
Yes, the cm12 kernel is basically ready but is untested. It will probably need a bit more work once I get the first rom build going and do some testing.

I'm not sure. Depends on how cm12 goes and how I much time I have. I have already (last year) been experimenting with opimized kernel builds for it (using sabermod gcc4.9 toolchain with -O3 optimizations) and improving battery life buy tuning the interactive governer for this device. If I get enough time to finish that off and rebuild the whole rom with sabermod then I will probably release it as we should see some performance improvement from it.
[HTC Desire 610] MGfusion:
Is there any way I can get two different versions of the same app installed on my phone
[HTC Desire 610] MiniBlu:
Not easily, You would have to install the older version first and then decompile it with apktool or similar and change the package name in the manifest.xml then recompile and sign it. Then uninstall the original and install your modified version. You should then be able to install the latest version from playstore without it overwriting your modified version. This is not something I have ever done but in theory it should work. Here is a link to some info on it and if you just google apktool for info on its usage (note you must have the app installed on you phone and also use your phones framework.res.apk when decompiling the app).
[HTC Desire 610] magicstick5:
Have you guys calibrated your battery (deleting batterstats.bin file) and did it help
[HTC Desire 610] MGfusion:
Wow, sounds a bit more complicated than I thought, thanks a lot though
[HTC Desire 610] magicstick5:
For the att 610, DPI at 208 is stock for cm11 right, because a DPI calc showed that
[HTC Desire 610] MiniBlu:
No. 240 dpi. Anything below that causes problems with some apps.
[HTC Desire 610] MGfusion:
Sob when the cm12 build comes out will we have to wipe and clean install, or just a dirty flash? It should just be a dirty flash right?
[HTC Desire 610] magicstick5:
I think it would be a clean install, as its a higher android version and it may cause problems with app data because it may think your on kk instead of lp, but an app called zip me backs up apps into a zip.

We'll wait for miniblu's answer though :)
[HTC Desire 610] Darrennchan8:
I would try lucky patcher for something like this.
[HTC Desire 610] MGfusion:
OK, that what I was thinking too, but wasn't sure. Thanks
[HTC Desire 610] buyakk:
Hi MiniBlu, Im follow the progress of your work since the beginning, and last night finally I made the decision to install your CM11. On stock rom my D610 was constantly freezing, with CM there is no problem with it. So today you are my hero today MiniBlu!

Great thanks for all your work.
[HTC Desire 610] magicstick5:
But 240 DPI makes everything HUGE on the art version. 208 seems stock
[HTC Desire 610] MGfusion:
Has anyone had any problems with the sim card ejecting and not staying in? If so, any solutions?
[HTC Desire 610] wo88les:
Yeah mate happened to mine not long after I got it, I used to push sim card in and close the flap, then I'd put my silicon case over and the sim would hold in

The other thing I did after I stopped using the silicon case was to jam a small thin piece of paper on top of the sim card whilst inserting it but over time it actually broke the sim reader a couple of weeks ago, no way to repair it now :( the new sim reader will fix the eject catch but swapping the reader is a pain in the a$$
[HTC Desire 610] MGfusion:
Great, I thought so... If you don't mind me asking about how much did it cost for you?
[HTC Desire 610] wo88les:
I didnt get it done mate it really isn't worth it on that device, but shouldn't cost too much, the reader is about £3 on eBay, it has plastic inner so cannot be soldered with normal solder it has to be low melting point stuff, if you know someone with a heat gun thing and a fine soldering iron I'll bet 10-15 to get it done, my boss solders phones charging ports and fits screens and batteries but he said it isn't worth the time as there is a chance it won't work so I don't want to have to mess on getting it fixed, there's a video on YouTube how to do it search for desire 610 sim reader repair

---------- Post added at 06:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:08 PM ----------

I'm just using the 610 for Rom testing and back to old s3 for daily phone, don't get me wrong the s3 does outperform the 610 lol
[HTC Desire 610] MGfusion:
Yeah I watched the video, and I agree, does not really seem worth it. Well I probably will just go ahead and get a new one then
[HTC Desire 610] wo88les:
Wish I had the spare cash to get another one, my upgrade is due in a few months so I'll get my 4g back then, unless by some miracle I can work out a way to fix it, also, another issue with mine is that the power button stopped working all of a sudden mid last year, luckily it didn't cause issues with booting to twrp recovery as it was as if the button was stuck down even though it still clicks. If I hold volume rocker it reboots so getting into recovery was easy just by Holding volume button after reboot, and remapping volume button to wake screen lol
[HTC Desire 610] magicstick5:
I use a blunt pencil tip to push the microsd and sim in until a click. (Try that???)

---------- Post added at 09:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:13 PM ----------

My dads old s3 was slow after 3 years of usage. Not to mention the battery. It would drop like 20% every hour (not exaggerating) and I replaced it twice and did a factory reset. But specwise, the s3 is better but the 610 feels more snappy to me.
[HTC Desire 610] wo88les:
Yeah don't get me wrong mate the battery is really crap on s3 I play a couple of games, that's all I'm really comparing, 610 is a great phone even greater running this Rom :)
[HTC Desire 610] MGfusion:
hmmmm... I've been searching, how does the HTC one A9 sound? Should I get it?
[HTC Desire 610] MGfusion:
So, I have to send this phone to at&t for repairs, however I have twrp and root. I don't have a computer and I'm finding it very tricky to remove both twrp and supersu. How can I remove both without a pc? (I've tried flashing stock recovery and uninstalling root from the supersu app, but it comes back every reboot as a system app)
[HTC Desire 610] magicstick5:
You have to uninstall root from SuperSU, then delete it from the system in a file explorer. I think that may work. As for recovery, ask MiniBlu or some pro

Have some theme issues with l-kat

1. Status bar after theme stays black, even on the home screen

2. This one isn't a theme issue, but in Google keyboard, enter button. Is white instead of green

---------- Post added at 10:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:27 PM ----------

A9 is an overpriced copy of the iPhone 6. Htc needs to rethink their phones, or they will go down the drain. I would recommend the xpera M4 aqua (same specs I think but a 720p screen). I like the oneplus x or even if you're on a budget, the one m7 is a steal. It may be old, but has okay specs and is only 180 on amazon I think.
[HTC Desire 610] MGfusion:
I got it, use flashify to flash stock recovery, then remove root, thanks
[HTC Desire 610] MiniBlu:
That should work but, if your sending it back to HTC you would also need to go back to stock ROM and relock the bootloader. Unfortunately there is no way to relock the bootloader except with a PC using "fasboot OEM lock".
[HTC Desire 610] magicstick5:
Any ideas on black status bar after l kat on home screen?

And Google keyboard? That white enter is really bothering me
[HTC Desire 610] MiniBlu:
Not really, I use Lkat dark. But if I go into settings > themes > holo and tick all boxes then apply It all goes back to stock. I did have a few issues with themes when I was using xposed though.
[HTC Desire 610] MGfusion:
I'm already on stock unrooted Rom, and I'm bringing it to AT&T, and there customer service it pretty stupid about these things honestly, the last thing they will notice is an unlocked bootloader, if they even do, so im not too worried
[HTC Desire 610] magicstick5:
Ha

---------- Post added at 12:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:21 AM ----------

So guys, I tried l kat dark and light; both status bars are black. The only workaround is flat style bars, but I want to find a way to make it transparent. It is transparent for other themes, and before I reflashed the ROM, this theme had transparent status bars on the homescreen
[HTC Desire 610] MGfusion:
Any other conflicting xposed modules? Multiple modules that edit system ui can mess with that stuff. And I never had trouble with black status bars on any theme, except when I used nova launcher
[HTC Desire 610] MiniBlu:
Same here except I do use it with nova launcher and have no problems as it has it's own settings for transparent status bar. I did notice some problems with status bar when trialing dpi settings other than the stock 240 dpi.
[HTC Desire 610] MiniBlu:
CM12.1 progress update

Hi guys, just thought I would give you a quick update on my progress with CM12.1. I have been basing my device and vendor tree updates on the memul code which unfortunately was abandoned at cm12 so even building for it was giving some build errors on latest cm12.1 sources. But I have now fixed all the build errors and have successfully built cm12.1 for the memul (one mini 2) against my a3ul (desire 610) kernel. This means I am close now(very close). I can almost taste the lollipop goodness. But as it is Australia day public holiday here and I've been drinking most of the day while waiting for test builds to complete (It would be un-Australian to not drink on Australia day). I think I had better stop work on it now before I start making major mistakes. :D It will be released soon.

Cheers MiniBlu
[HTC Desire 610] magicstick5:
Ohhhhh its probably my DPI. When I changed it to 208, I forgot to put it back to 240. But weirdly, I was on 208 before I reflashed the rom and no statusbar complaints.... Weird.

I try 240 DPI and report back.

---------- Post added at 11:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:43 AM ----------

Keep up the good work. You deserve a big thanks. You rose up the 610 from the dead! Thanks a lot MiniBlu!
[HTC Desire 610] MGfusion:
If course it's when I put my desire 610 completely back to stock, lol. Good work anyway.
[HTC Desire 610] MiniBlu:
Sorry man, it is what it is. I really don't have the time to put into it that I would like.
[HTC Desire 610] MGfusion:
Na man it's ok don't worry about it, was jk anyways
[HTC Desire 610] magicstick5:
So MiniBlu, can you explain the process of this to me?

1. You build cm12 for memul???

2. What do you do next??

???

And now you have to build for the 610 ???
[HTC Desire 610] magicstick5:
Oh so its 12.1...better!!!!
[HTC Desire 610] DaGWaR:
With my S3 brick this is good news
[HTC Desire 610] magicstick5:
I know its so exciting. I'm just gonna be waiting for 2 weeks until its released
[HTC Desire 610] MiniBlu:
I built it for the memul after trying to build for the a3ul to check if the errors I was getting where in the code I took from the memul or something in my changes. Turns out that the problems where due to memul code not being updated for cm12.1. Once I fixed that it built fine so then I rebuilt against my kernel to prove my kernel is OK. Now I just need to fix the same problems in my a3ul device tree that I fixed for memul and it should then build without errors. Of course that doesn't mean it will work right straight away but as long as it boots I can then start debugging.
[HTC Desire 610] magicstick5:
Ohh so because you build for memul, do you post the ROM in the memul development or is it used to hammer out errors on your 610 build?
[HTC Desire 610] MiniBlu:
Just to work out the errors. I don't have an memul to test with and I won't release anything untested.
[HTC Desire 610] magicstick5:
Cm12.1 release date? Sorry to bother, but I just want to know.
[HTC Desire 610] porozex:
Omg let him live his life
[HTC Desire 610] Yuriksat:
Great firmware, huge respect to the author!

Question - is there any chance to move apps to SD, or have them install there by default? Thanks!
[HTC Desire 610] magicstick5:
SD card in kitkat is kinda weird. On this rom, there's no option "move to sd'. You can ins xposed and install a module called xinternal sd, which basically swaps your sd for internal storage for some apps. If you want game obb, try module obb on sd
[HTC Desire 610] MGfusion:
Didn't listen to ya and got the HTC One A9, and so far, I'm loving it, ( I got the 32GB with 3 GB of ram btw)
[HTC Desire 610] magicstick5:
Oh how is it? Like sense 7 and software?
[HTC Desire 610] MiniBlu:
No Idea really. It might be this weekend or it might be next month. Won't have time to fix the device tree untill the weekend and have no real idea how much bug squashing I'll have to do to get it usable or even if it will boot straight off.

App to sd was removed from android in KitKat and Lollipop. Some custom roms have added it back but CM keep it fairly pure android. If and when I get this up to cm13 you will have the option to install external sd card as internal storage which will be nice, as google added that feature to Marshmallow.

For anyone who is interested I finally got around to pushing all my latest code to github. You can find the links in the OP now.

Cheers MiniBlu
[HTC Desire 610] Yuriksat:
MiniBlu & magicstick5 - thank you guys for your detailed replies! looking forward to installing CM13 :)
[HTC Desire 610] MGfusion:
It is incredibly smooth, and the sense is amazing in my opinion. Extremely fast too, for the 3GB ram version. Don't listen to the reviews, even though it looks like an iPhone it still is a great phone, something way better that just "mid-range"
[HTC Desire 610] magicstick5:
Can't find github links in op never mind stupid me

Maybe I found a bug maybe it's just my phone, but for some reason I can't take screenshots I get the error: Couldn't save screenshot. Storage might be in use. Anyone knows how to fix this?
[HTC Desire 610] MiniBlu:
Screenshots are working fine for most people. First thing I would try is to reboot you phone. I f this doesn't fix it then I would suspect that you may not have done a full wipe (Factory Reset as a minimum) before installing the rom. This can cause high IO loads due to left over incompatible data from your old rom, which can cause all sorts of strange problems including apps not being able to access storage when they need it.
[HTC Desire 610] magicstick5:
Also if your using xinternalsd, dont apply it to gallery, it causes issues with screenies. Instead, use pictures2sd.
[HTC Desire 610] Timmaker:
Rebooting didn't work, and for the factory reset I think I've actually done it, I did it to unlock the bootloader as the instructions told me on HTC dev

Htc Desire 610

Please help me, i was able to unlock my bootloader on my HTC Desire 610 using the HTcDev process, i used the twrp to flash my device but when i try to navigate to recovery, the screen returns to the bootloader menu.

Tried the whole process again but not having a head way. And when i relocked, i still have tempered showing on the top screen of my bootloader menu. Please how do i fix this and start all over again with the best method to root my HTC Desire 610. please help me
[HTC Desire 610] magicstick5:
Is your device rooted? If you want to try again, use Windroid Android Toolkit.

[HTC Desire 610] Timmaker:
I might have found out why i couldn't take screenshots I think it's because of the resolution changer
[HTC Desire 610] magicstick5:
Just follow the steps. I don't know how you relocked it. First, unlock bootloader, flash recovery, and flash supersu. Keep in mind that unlocking bootloader though Windroid requires a key from HtcDev, which windroids instructs you to do.

Jus follow all steps on windriod to unlock flash and root.

Nomone res changer
[HTC Desire 610] Timmaker:
Hmm weird im using that one too

Avoid changing resolutions. It can and does cause more problems than its worth depending on what other apps you have installed.

Is there any other way to get YouTube at least 480p?
