will it work with hboot 0.80 ? too many vanilla roms won't work on .80
[Desire Android Development] radomir11:
Great news!!! My Desire wait to 2.2
[Desire Android Development] MaTiCeK-:
First of all amazing work guys, amazing!

Sorry for hijacking this amazing thread like this, but I feel that a lot of android noobs is here (myself included). So for all of us, could somebody experienced write down the exact steps we have to follow in order to flash a new rom?

Also, about all that bricking and reboot loops that occur before the device being bricked... how to I recognize this and when should I pull the battery? I imagine it's safer to flash with the battery cover off.

Is it advisable (i.e. safer) to also flash the new recovery that ahmgsk released a day ago?

Thx.

thank you!
[Desire Android Development] DennisG1:
Great work...but still no bluetooth
[Desire Android Development] waz000000:
that's the crucial bit for me, i really wany wiimote working i bought one yestersday not knowing they didnt work on the desire.. bah gutted!
[Desire Android Development] masi0:
+1 hopefully this will be sorted soon
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
I'll do what i can to sort that out.:confused:
[Desire Android Development] snear:
nice work! i'm going to wait for a fully working rom tho.

can you get apps to install to sdcard with this rom?
[Desire Android Development] samac92:
I second this. I have read all I can but different people say different things. Is it possible to root first time with the new recovery? What do you do if it starts boot looping? It would be a great help. A how to for noobies would be great.

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] -A-P-M-:
waaaw, great work, you are the best !!!! HTC Should hire you !! :cool:
[Desire Android Development] waz000000:
having no installed the rom (bearing in mind at work) ive installed the wiimote package and pressed scan, this time it says "scanning" instead of the usual error, i cant confirm if it will connect as I dont have the WIImote here.

Is it possible the BT actually does work but the inbuilt ap for scanning is broken? therfore third party aps will be able to use bluetooth?
[Desire Android Development] kwaille:
Maybe "noobies" should not flash such rom...

If you want it,unroot via normal way,with the basic pre-rooted rom,and then try this one!

Don't put the charrue avant les boeuf...
[Desire Android Development] Kollegah:
I wait for amhsgks ROM :)
[Desire Android Development] PJFonseca:
Or like they say here "A carroça à frente dos Bois."
[Desire Android Development] MaTiCeK-:
The only way to stop being a noob is to flash such roms and learn in the process.
[Desire Android Development] kingchris:
wrong.

first read

then read

then read

...

...

then flash ;)
[Desire Android Development] MaTiCeK-:
What do you think I'm doing... reading :)

If I was flashing straight ahead, I'd not be asking questions here. But I really believe that you learn the most by doing it.
[Desire Android Development] -A-P-M-:
I wouldn't learn a lot in the process, because probably I would brick it as soon as I would start flashing. I will flash it when very simple guide will be available, like this for example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qggx9NWrch0 :)
[Desire Android Development] MaTiCeK-:
I didn't mean doing it without any knowledge... I just don't think you need to be a guru to do it.

For other noobs... it's not difficult to try:

1. Backup your phone with titanium or something

2. Backup your micro SD onto your comp

3. Format SD to FAT32

4. Copy DEfrost.zip to the SD.

5. If your Desire is still on, turn it off now.

6. Turn it on by holding the voulme down button and enter recovery mode.

7. Start recovery-windows.bat

8. Choose wipe and then wipe data/factory reset.

9. Pres volume down to get to the main menu.

10. Go and Flash the defrost.zip

11. Once finished choose reboot and enjoy Froyo.

There you have it, from a noob to a how to poster in 10 minutes and a big spoon of courage. :) Just trying to help out, if I got anything wrong correct me, so we can learn.
[Desire Android Development] rolfd:
Maybe you should point out that your guide is only suitable to people who have already rooted their device? Other than that. Nice!:D
[Desire Android Development] MaTiCeK-:
Yep, otherwise a goldcard is needed as far as I understand. I do keep one just in case and don't use it as my main card... so that's why I forgot to mention it.
[Desire Android Development] Robboftw:
I thought a Goldcard was only needed if your handset is network branded/locked when you go to root it?
[Desire Android Development] MaTiCeK-:
You see, I'm a noob, I don't exactly know. Mine is not branded and not simlocked, so I might as well not need the goldcard. :)
[Desire Android Development] Robboftw:
As far as I know, if that is the case, you don't need a goldcard.
[Desire Android Development] ulrar:
No, you don't need it, I've rooted and flashed Froyo without it :)

But a friend who have an Orange Desire needed it.
[Desire Android Development] MaTiCeK-:
Well I'm not so sure about my stock desire anymore :) Maybe it's not completely stock, but it surely is simlock free and so far every phone I bought at the Slovenian provider Mobitel was fully stock, despite being offered on contract... Oh well doesn't really matter does it?
[Desire Android Development] Robboftw:
Can you add the steps you took in order to root it, so people can maybe do that and then follow on with your flashing guide.

There's very little in the way of straight step by step guides for this sort of thing at the moment.
[Desire Android Development] MaTiCeK-:
Go to amorvi.nimbu.com . There's a nice guide. But use the defrost.zip for rom image instead the rootedupdate.zip .

[Desire Android Development] Phil750123:
I think htc should hire Paul and get him to just work on the desire update to froyo!
[Desire Android Development] MaTiCeK-:
I just hope once the rom for Desire is out, that there won't be any reports of usb bricking. :rolleyes:
[Desire Android Development] Nekromantik:
Re: Froyo for nexus released, any DEV's here?

I only heard usb issues for people using the newer rout methods. I.used the original first method and everyone that used that had no issues. Could be wrong tho

[Desire Android Development] deovferreira:
I do believe roms have nothing to do with the usb brick, it's most likely something in the recovery that triggers safety features on the radio/spl and somehow unsets the usb boot flag.

Anyway, back on topic, I just got 2.2 to boot on the desire. But I believe this will not be an easy port. The graphics are very glitchy and there is no service. Anyway I am just a noob and Paul will probably get this right.

I'll leave some pictures.
[Desire Android Development] sruon:
Nice progress, mind giving a quick how to?
[Desire Android Development] Lyall3s1:
+1 That would be very cool deovferreira.
[Desire Android Development] abc27:
Well the No service is due to the fact the 2.2 update comes with a radio update for the N1. Replace that with a radio update for the Desire and it should work (By my limited understand of "work" anyway). As for graphics... I suspect OpenGL?
[Desire Android Development] deovferreira:
It's not the radio, I removed that from the update script, it would probably brick the desire. Well, it's probably the radio since a radio update might be required but current radios might not work, I am not sure.

It's a simple mash up of a stock HTC kernel with Paul's nexus port. Here's a step-by-step:

1) Get Paul's nexus port and a stock rom such as the one from rootedupdate.zip

2) Extract both, overwrite the nexus' boot.img with the one from rootedupdate.zip

3) Important: remove the radio.img and remove the radio flash line from META-INF/com/google/android/update-script

4) Rezip and sign.

Disclaimer: blah blah blah at your own risk, don't held me responsible if something goes wrong.
[Desire Android Development] sruon:
I did that 2 hours ago, but I was too scared to flash my own rom lol

thanks for the how-to
[Desire Android Development] deovferreira:
I am too since the brick issues every small flash is an adventure, I kind of enjoy the thrill, but would be devastated if it usb-bricked.
[Desire Android Development] Lyall3s1:
Wouldn't boot for me. It did 2 boot loops then I rebooted it using my abd batch file. Didn't want to risk it haha. Flashed back to Pay's ROM for now. :o
[Desire Android Development] deovferreira:
You may have to wipe if you are using a sense based rom, I wasn't.
[Desire Android Development] kingchris:
got a lot of reboots. atm. nothing special
[Desire Android Development] JonesWTF:
Re: Froyo for nexus released, any DEV's here?

Did you not wipe at all? Could be why it was glitchy.
[Desire Android Development] deovferreira:
Nah, I wiped later to find out if that was the reason, it wasn't :)
[Desire Android Development] Kollegah:
Can you please upload this selfmade ROM?

Sorry for my Bad English :o
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
I will upload a froyo rom for desire later in a few hours, I'm just going to enjoy the sun for a bit longer while it's out :)

So you really have a working 2.2. rom? Nice work! Mind uploading some pictures or better yet a video, to see how fast it is? thx.
[Desire Android Development] :
If this works it will be amazing;)))
[Desire Android Development] :
Adam if you give it out to us we can help you test with it, im sure there are lots of guinea pigs lining up to have a pop at this;) Including myself;)

JD;)
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
sorry guys for delay

i am in the process of rooting the device, i didnt want to do it untill the spl had been cracked fully

i have the 2.2 image ready to flash
[Desire Android Development] Kookitza:
me 2! ;):rolleyes:
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
i rather run it myself first so i know it works and then i cannot be held accountable for any bricks :) it will be uploaded as soon as though
[Desire Android Development] Bobby94:
omg so are we gettin nexus one 2.2 update today or i misunderstood something?
[Desire Android Development] :
Ok mate;)

I assume its a nexus rom?

JD;)
[Desire Android Development] neowlchaz:
'and so the Desire owners waited with bated breath, to see if their dreams of Frozen Yoghurt will be fullfilled.'

Fingers crossed everyone!
[Desire Android Development] :
Yeah we do have a sweet tooth dont we;)
[Desire Android Development] Bobby94:
i don't get a single thing.

are we gettin nexus one 2.2 rom?

and do we have to have spl and other things for the install? O_O

basically, do we need to flash phone to get this ROM?
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
flashing now :x
[Desire Android Development] cTrox:
Good luck!!
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
its worked :) from initial assessment, although no network signal, there is definitely a speed improvement
[Desire Android Development] DocRambone:
Wow, can you tell how you made it bootable?

Can you test linpack?

Adam did you put the desire radio in to the package instead of the nexus, it will not get a signal with the nexus radio;)

[Desire Android Development] deovferreira:
Do you also get glitchy graphics like I did?
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
i removed the radio
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
there does seem to be some slight glitching in certain menus
[Desire Android Development] DennisG1:
Is their a chance that we will get it today for our desires?
[Desire Android Development] Nekromantik:
the ROM does seem to boot for some people who tried it so should not take took long to sort the radio and glitches out hopefully.

Cant wait for it next week :)

i will upload it as soon as i fix at least the radio issue, i'm working on it now

your a legend
[Desire Android Development] Waza_Be:
Edit:

wrong message, sorry...
[Desire Android Development] deovferreira:
Changing the vm heap from 24mb to 32mb might help the graphics issues:

dalvik.vm.heapsize=32m

AM's nexus mode have this value in build.prop, whereas the default build.prop has only 24mb.

These settings are also present on his mod but not in the nexus froyo:

ro.ril.gprsclass=12

ro.ril.hsxpa=2

These might actually be related to the service issue.

It might be worth disabling this, since the desire doesn't have the a1026 (noise canceling mic)

media.a1026.enableA1026=1

I hope this helps.
[Desire Android Development] DennisG1:
Ive a question. Will this 2.2 work on .80 desires?
[Desire Android Development] Kollegah:
If not I will be sad :(
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
ive noticed quite a few issues already

doesnt detect usb being plugged in

thinks no sd card is inserted

slight graphical issues

random rebooting

wifi doesnt turn on

no network signal

this is just the obvious flaws
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
i accidentally updated mine from 0.75 to 0.80, so yes it does
[Desire Android Development] mardox:
some of those issues sound alot like a usb-brick , especially the first 2 -deosnt detect usb and thinks no sd card is inserted-
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
just reflashed with a radio included in the image and its still a no go :/
[Desire Android Development] deovferreira:
For wifi you need to copy the wireless module from a desire rom, it's located at system/lib/modules/bcm4329.ko and replace the nexus one which is compiled for a different kernel version.
[Desire Android Development] kingchris:
tried and wont work.
[Desire Android Development] ahmgsk:
are u working on sdk files ???

If yes then u have to work on init.rc

U have to put htcril give path in build.prop and other things
[Desire Android Development] kingchris:
no only working on Nexus update port to desire
[Desire Android Development] ahmgsk:
Re: Froyo for nexus released, any DEV's here?

Pauls Rom okay np

If yes take care don't flash radio remove it and remove script from updatescript

just flashed back to 2.1 and those issues don't exist so its definitely not usb-bricked *yet*

i'm re-flashing now

graphics still has a slight problem

Re: Froyo for nexus released, any DEV's here?

Replace the ril lib pull from my nex-desire rom

And make proper change in build.prop to make network work.

AdamG, do you have a twitter account, so we can follow it and see when your ROM will be ready?
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
never used twitter, i will post all updates here and make a thread when i get to a point of semi usability
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
i tried this and it didnt work as well, using the 2.6.29 kernel
[Desire Android Development] ahmgsk:
bro i hav not given it a try but there is something abt new radio and kernel

well check init.rc n bravo.rc -> then make changes in build.prop too
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
starting to lose my rag with it now
[Desire Android Development] ahmgsk:
take a break then start again with stuff to add n change
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
i think that's what i'm going to do i'm downloading froyo again and starting from scratch
[Desire Android Development] Kali-:
bcm4329.hcd and fw_bcm4329.bin in /system/etc/firmware will also usefull?
[Desire Android Development] ahmgsk:
ok good luck !!!
[Desire Android Development] adam235:
everything from etc/firmware should be used from the desire image

graphics ...

probably new kernel 2.6.32 or higher is need :(

The firmware bits probably can be kept, at least for the wireless interface.

i give up for now, all i could get working was the wifi, im uploading it so people can check it out if they wish but its pretty pointless imo

[Desire Android Development] iDance°-->ra1n:
a fast question (i can not read other posts):

what are problems in this rom?
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
where do you want me to start :)

no network signal is the biggest

then system not responding, randomly crashing and restarting

auto rotate not working

not recognising sd card or usb input

status bar locked

that's just skimming the surface
[Desire Android Development] kingchris:
AdamG wen u check "USB Debugging" the Desire will recognise USB

for adb shell commands
[Desire Android Development] iDance°-->ra1n:
we have to work hard

maybe bcm4329.ko is the problem of "no network signal" problem
[Desire Android Development] iDance°-->ra1n:
We can resolve usb input with "Mount USB" application
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
bcm4329 is for the bluetooth/fm radio, nothing to do with 3g/gsm radio
[Desire Android Development] iDance°-->ra1n:
sorry i understood that the signal problem was about wifi signal
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
no its the network signal that isn't working, wifi issue was already resolved
[Desire Android Development] iDance°-->ra1n:
maybe the issue in HTC RIL
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
i replaced all ril files and build.prop entries relating to ril, had no effect

it's a problem mate

So... Bug List

-Wifi doesn't work (someone got it fixed but I couldn't)

-No Service

-No Bluetooth

-No USB (it does charge though)

-No SD support

-No ADB (related to USB kinda)

-Service process force close itself

-Random reboots

-Touch screen can be unresponsive at times

-Nexus One animated Background doesn't react to taps

-Status Bar doesn't pull

-Sometimes the rotation ****s up

--------------------------------------------------------------------

What works...

-Buttons (Volume Down/UP may not work)

-Sound

-Apps to a degree (need to be inserted in roms cause there is not much way to install them without wifi etc.)

-Vibration

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Fixed/Tweak List

Changing dalvik.vm.heapsize=24m to 32 appears to fix some graphics bug

If anyone fixes any bug... they should indicate which file they touched and by which they changed.

Linpack scores 41~ about, not bad for a quick and dirty port at stock speeds.
[Desire Android Development] sruon:
Tried multiple modules from different roms but it was a no go, including MCR & Cyano... hopefully more skilled people will pass by
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
changing dalvik has no effect on the gfx i'm afraid

wifi is an easy fix, just replace system\lib\modules\bcm4329.ko with that from a 2.1 release
[Desire Android Development] sruon:
unfortunately the wifi doesn't work no matter which bcm4329.ko I use
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:

[Desire Android Development] shawe_ewahs:
The problem with hardware, can be because you use the .so files that have nexus rom, and this are compiled for another version of kernel, try to use the .so files that are in Desire ROM, I think that it can solve some hardware problems.
[Desire Android Development] radiosilence:
What? Most ROMs include a kernel..
[Desire Android Development] JDouce:
most roms include a kernel but you are not limited to that kernel you can flash a different kernel with the same rom i.e

MCR come with a kernel

but u can also use the Modaco Custom Kernel whioch hasent been implemented into the custom roms yet
