noise

After installing the Defrost rom i have a lot of noise during voice calls. squeeky sounds and stuff and the people i called said it was like i was in traffic while i was at home.

I have tried several stock radio rom's already but it's still there.

I've seen a few people in this topic who reported this problem as well but i didnt find a solution nor a useful reply to this..

does anyone have a suggestion on this or can anybody help? :)

I would apreciate it, thanks
[Desire Android Development] kewell79:
yes, 0.7c ****s up the wifi
[Desire Android Development] :
Back to b for now guys;)

It was a pre-release anyway;)

[Desire Android Development] akuma86:
@richardtrip's attention plz : In my desire the BT data transfer it's still not working, from the 0.1 to 0.7c some little fixes and we will have the best porting ever !!!!!!!

THNX A LOT ;)
[Desire Android Development] rubino90:
ciao

hi you are italian? remind me your msn contact you can? thanks a lot
[Desire Android Development] lpachuong:
For me version 7.0 is the best so far. I find 7b is kinda laggy in performance. looking forward to your next version richard. :)

Btw, did you add wake up anykey in 7b? I was amazed :p
[Desire Android Development] justinkb:
the 5.3 wifi in standby mode bcm4329.ko doesn't work anymore with the 5.8 kernel, any chance we can get an update for 5.8 on that mod? thanks :)
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
I always experienced problems until I went to 32. I did that on 4.x I think and never had issues since
[Desire Android Development] redlabour:
Still massive Lags in Rockoplayer playing *.mp4 and *.avi Files with RockPlayer since 5.x.

Before it runs absolutely normal. Using 5.8 HAVS.
[Desire Android Development] gannjunior:
Hi,

wich are settings for setcpu to hit 42+ in linckpack test?

I tried many settings but I can't go over 37.5 with desire @ 1190....

thanks

ciao!
[Desire Android Development] nitrox1:
Can try svs 1190 kernel, with setcpu governor set to performance, with no other profiles, as few back ground processes running, and try a couple of times on quadrant, second or third is better.

But should run just as good on the HAVS 1113 kernel too.
[Desire Android Development] crapula512:
i dont have any problem or lag running launcher pro with 32mb VM, 5.3 havs and keeping launcher in ram.
[Desire Android Development] asmaridis:
FM radio not working for me on 5. 5 havs kernels : /
[Desire Android Development] jazha:
I had lag problems in the app drawer after installing 5.8HAVS 1113Mhz.

I set SetCpu to 998Mhz, and perfomance governor. Scroll is smooth in app drawer.

I put the governor back to "On demand" and the app drawer is still smooth. ;)

So: Setting governor to Performance, and then back to On demand after scrolling through app drawer fixed it for me.
[Desire Android Development] Theteenystar:
For me absolutely everything works fine with 5.8 HAVS ;)

I'm Happy...

Great work Richard :)
[Desire Android Development] fossean:
I have no sound in iPlayer with 5.8 (installed kernel 5.8 HAVS 1113Mhz, and App add-on pack 5.8). I tested youtube and that played sound fine, so I can't think what the problem could be. Searched, but didn't find anyone with a similar issue; the video playback in iPlayer is very good, but I just hear some background static from the phone speaker (media volume turned up high).

Besides this minor issue, 5.8 seems good, many thanks!
[Desire Android Development] redlabour:
Maybe Problems with or missing Codecs? Have lags at Rockplayer since 5.x. @Richard?

Anyone could tell me Defrost version from flash player videos issue begins?

I would like downgrade to an Defrost version without this issue.
[Desire Android Development] m0nji:
sorry but i have no problems with flash in 5.8.

I dont have any problems with DeFrost 5.8 either.

Everything is smooth and cool :)
[Desire Android Development] olec_:
can you play flash videos in browser with 5.8?
[Desire Android Development] weretiger:
youtube in browser

able to play youtube movies in browser... does that consider ok?
[Desire Android Development] munkimatt:
Hi, thanks for your help. I tried this last night, made no difference. Even silent mode doesn't knock the noises up.

Any other ideas?
[Desire Android Development] m0nji:
yes, tested on several websites.
[Desire Android Development] 0semaj0:
How to get the ext partition? What size would be the best? I will have a Google :-) thanks for your help!
[Desire Android Development] buzmay:
For me 5.8 with the HAVS kernel works nice, no flash problem no nothing.

Thanks a lot as usual Richard for the great job :)
[Desire Android Development] buzmay:
The best and easiest way to do it is with a linux live cd of gparted, then be aware of that partition number one has to be fat 32 and then the other one ext3 or 4, about the size that is up to you, but a minimum of 512 mb for the ext partition would be recommended.

Hope this helps
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
512MB should easily be enough with swap=0. You can use Rom manager
[Desire Android Development] zigson:
One final "bump" before giving up on Defrost for now :(
[Desire Android Development] Marsbar:
Do you experience the same with OpenDesire (also based on CM)? Or is it just DF?
[Desire Android Development] friedgoldmole:
Just wiped again and installed fresh 5.8 and flash is still not working.
[Desire Android Development] olec_:
I'm very confused. Can you (or Richard) confirm than using HAVS kernel fixes the famous flash player videos issue (for example megavideo) ??

(sorry for my insistence :-P)
[Desire Android Development] heyjoe66:
for auto-brightness try setting less number of steps, 5 or 7 maybe
[Desire Android Development] heyjoe66:
yes, a saw it before too, and this time, when i've updated using defrost setup

shall try once more now...

update:

tried again, played with setcpu, and still no luck

the lag is mostly noticeable in launcher pro, cause usually it runs very smooth

but in fact the whole system is slowing down terribly
[Desire Android Development] olec_:
What kernel and flash version you have?
[Desire Android Development] nitrox1:
I would say 1gb if you have a big enough card, because if you wanted to flash desire hd rom in the future, it uses up 500 & something mb of you ext partition, and it would save you having to partition it again.

[Desire Android Development] b4bass:
my issues in Defrost 5.8 - HAVS 1190 - SOFF N1 Partition - 32.48.00.32u

- Flash doesnt work and freeze the phone, i have to do a hard reset

- auto brightness doesnt work

- lag and freeze sometimes with A2DP bluetooth (100% smooth with sence)

- DSP Manager broken for bluetooth headphones

I do have another problem with A2SD :

I do like to use the /cache partition in the internal memory (witch is 100mb with N1 partition table) because my SD card is slow like hell (chinese genuine 32go uSD bought for 30$ on ebay)
[Desire Android Development] prove:
Does anyone know how to remove the auto answering while in bluetooth mode connected to pc? Can't seem to find it anywhere...
[Desire Android Development] zaphyr:
I upgraded from 5.7 to 5.8, and now I can't find the white icon/black bar addon in the DeFrost app. I really like those icons, anyone know where I can get them?
[Desire Android Development] mister_r:
Hey guys,

how can Sven Killig's usb host driver be installed for this?
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Yeah if that was your plan, that certainly.would be a good idea. But if just for apps, with app cache still.internal, I doubt you would fill 1024 ext before running out of /data locally.

That said, I just increased to 1024. I plan to change my system, /cache and /data partitions
[Desire Android Development] 0semaj0:
nope, not compatbile but should be very soon? just as soon as the developer port it for 5.8...
[Desire Android Development] 0semaj0:
Thanks for that...it was really helpful...otherwise didnt know where to start lol...why is swap 0? what is swap used for?

Not sure yet, I will try another CM based ROM and perhaps something Sense based. Today I realised that the effect is far worse when using LauncherPro than the standard launcher. I have tons of widgets on LauncherPro, perhaps it's a memory issue. Will check, cheers.
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Swap is to use the partition for RAM. Like a page file on a pc. You are not using the partition for this so set to 0
[Desire Android Development] buzmay:
Why when looking aat power usage I get always that display is what it is using more battery, I get like 53% even though the phone is in standby with screen lock?

Do I need to change some settings?
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Because everything that uses CPU uses less power now, so display is dominant power user as is not affected by undervolted kernel
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
I agree with the psx4Droid issue reported earlier. D pad interprets short press as long press. Oj works fine but not ergonomic to use.

Seeing as I didn't do this when I allocated my EXT space is the a way of recovering the Swap from a large size back to zero with out formatting the card?
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
I would expect the card would need to be flattened and re-partitioned
[Desire Android Development] zapper328:
was on DF5.6, but had flash prob.

I tried going back to DF3.4 ( it was one of my better backups) Flash was 100%.

Wiped and updated to DF5.1( loved the battery life and dont really need fm radio)

installed flash 10.1 from market, it seemed to work ok - checked with iplayer/bbc news, but after a few hrs its asking for to download plug-ins again:confused: - youtube and others work, just the browser vidoes don't.

My battery drains 1% every 10mins on standby. So that's less than 24 hour standby, what gives on this?

I have just a weather/last call and calendar + fb widget, everything else is blank for now.
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Yep, tis normal
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
On standby (havs) the battery should not drain more than 0.5%-1.0% an hour. There's a process that keeps your phone awake for sure (or battery is bad).

When in a call I have 3 buttons showing

bluetooth, mute & speaker

except the bluetooth one is greyed out and wont work so in a call if I am in the car I have to go to the main screen to turn it on.

Anyone know why this wont work? is it the rom or LP?

cheer
[Desire Android Development] jjplayground:
Little confused

This rom uses the CyanogenMod but there is also a Cyanogen ROM CM6.

What is the difference between Defrost and Cyanogen or are they the same?
[Desire Android Development] hdnick:
Why " 5.8 HAVS @998Mhz" (or older 5.5 HAVS @998Mhz) have been deleted from DeFrost setup?
[Desire Android Development] mbroeders:
It's the same base, Richard Trip uses cyanogenmod as a base, but adds a lot of tweaks to the system. It seems as there is a lot of cooperation going on between Kali- from the cyanogenmod team and Richard Trip, which, in my opinion, really benefits this rom! Also, i feel that DeFrost has a better choice of kernels, especially the HAVS kernels.

So, tho answer your question, yes they are largely the same, but also quite different ;)
[Desire Android Development] Marsbar:
The bluetooth button in-call just switches between a headset (that is already paired and connected to the phone) and the handset; it doesn't connect a headset that is not already paired and connected.
[Desire Android Development] jjplayground:
Thanx for you reply. Little question about the HAVS kernals. i want to try the 1133 mhz kernel. Is installing just enough to get the benefits or do I have to do other thing like installing setCPU and if so do I have to configure setCPU?

[Desire Android Development] Kalavere:
I gave DeFrost a go yesterday for the first time. I was quite impressed with the DeFrost customs settings and everyone loves Cyanogen tweaks, however when using LauncherPro scrolling in the menu wasn't smooth at all unless you flicked quickly from top to bottom or vice versa.

It was annoying enough for me to reinstall my previous ROM, is this a common problem?
[Desire Android Development] jjplayground:
How does it look like (pictures please :) ) and how to install?
[Desire Android Development] dnovoa20:

I hope I have been helpful
[Desire Android Development] mbroeders:
To be honest, I'm not an expert in these things. However, from my experience, just flash the kernel and then in SetCPU choose device selection and let it autodetect speed (as you should always do when changing kernels). So quite easy...
[Desire Android Development] Lennyuk:
yes always let it autodetect unless for some strange reason the Kernel (or rom) dev told you otherwise.

Can't install DeFrost 5.8 on new slcd Desire

I tried several times to install DeFrost to my new 2-days-old Desire with sLCD.

I'm not new in flashing custom roms. No problems with my amoled display at all. Did a full wipe and also tried to install DeFrost with vorkkernel but with no success.

The phone displays a black screen with some red stripes after the green HTC logo on white screen.

Anybody has the same problem or, much better, a solution?
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
You can't use vork. Use the defrost kernels available from.the defrost setup app, once flashed the Rom.

Try downloading from.first page

Menu, settings, cyanogen, performance, vmheap=32.

[Desire Android Development] deepakoffline:
thanks :)

lets see how this looks :)
[Desire Android Development] Danners:
Hi all, just moved from Opendesire to the DeFrost 5.8 (did a full wipe of everything and installed the 32.48.00.32U_5.11.05.14 radio first), hoping it would solve a problem I've been having with my hardware keys.

Before moving to DeFrost I often had to press any of the hardware keys multiple times before the software would register the keypress, fortunately this issue has mostly been resolved, however, it remains with volume down.

Whenever pressing the volume down rocker, it only seems to register about 1 in 5 of the presses, often meaning I have to press it about 15 times to switch my phone to vibrate or turn my media volume down, volume up (and home, menu, back etc) works fine now, leading me to believe that it's not a hardware problem.

Has anyone else ever experienced this problem?

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Boot into recovery where you need to use volume to navigate the menus. If the same is true here, its a hardware issue
[Desire Android Development] nespresso33:
If I remove my ext3 partition , the rom will be slower ?
[Desire Android Development] Danners:
Thanks... just tried it, it's not working properly in recovery either... guess my phone is screwed :(
[Desire Android Development] EViollet:
I had the same problem. I found LauncherPro to be very sluggish. When first started it was OK, and it just got slower and slower. I had to kill the process for it to become snappy again. Very annoying.

I tried lots of different settings (32Mb VM, keep in memory, etc.) but I never managed to get it as snappy as in my current ROM.

So I ended up abandonning AOSP ROMs (I had the same problem with OD) and sticking with Sense which doesn't eat up more battery and feels just as fast.

Doesn't mean I won't go back to DeFrost though! I really liked it!! :)

Maybe when I'm fed up with Sense and feel the urge for change again!! ;D
[Desire Android Development] Atse:
I can remember that somewhere in settings there was an option to turn off wifi when the screen is turned off. now, however, I want to disable this option as I would like WiFi to be on when the screen is off. Someone got any tips?

Everything else is working great btw, great batterylife and speed on 5.8 @ 1131 HAVS. So thanks Richard!

Thank you.

That's the problem: DeFrost doesn't boot for the first time (btw: OpenDesire an CM don't boot too). Is there possible a driver issue or the slcd driver is not present in the used kernel version? As I said: no problem with the amoled Desire.
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Shouldn't be. You need to wipe fro recovery and reflash Rom from scratch. Do a format of system, data and cache from recovery first
[Desire Android Development] Kazuya17:
Settings -> Wifi settings -> press Menu -> Advanced -> Sleep policy to Never.
[Desire Android Development] Morpheus27:
Did all these points from ClockworkMod recovery: wipe all I can wipe (cache, data/factory, dalvik), formatted system, data, cache... Applying the rom.

Result is the same: after the green HTC logo there's a black screen with blue stripes this time...

Flashing a sense rom is working perfect, but I don't want sense.
[Desire Android Development] LordWhiteRaven:
Hi all,

It seems that I have a quite similar problem like morpheus. After flashing DeFrost 5.8 and rebooting the Device stands at the screen with the green htc logo and doesn't do anything. I've the same problem when I flash OpenDesire.

If I choose LeeDroid everything works fine and the system boots up correctly. I've already wiped / factory reseted several times before & after flashing the ROM but it didn't help.

Anyone an Idea what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Have you got an ext partition on your SD card for a2SD +?
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
I'll be honest, no idea on that one, sorry
[Desire Android Development] Morpheus27:
Thank you for your fast support.

Maybe HTC has changed the hardware? Older sLCD Desires seem not to have such problems. OpenDesire and CM are having the same problem (naturally cause they have the same base)....
[Desire Android Development] dakore:
Does anyone use custom font with Defrost (5.7/5.8) and how does it work for you?

I have strange issue after changing the font with Font Changer app. I've flashed fonts.zip as required. In Font Changer I've selected font (in my case it's tuffy) and reboot. Font is recognized - great! BUT, I got bug with showing the text in conversation list (messaging app) or in browser's address bar. It happens only where text is ommited with ellipsis ("..." three dots).

The best example is text inside the address bar in browser: it is almost always ommited with "..." due to long web urls.

The problem is, with custom font I see small question mark after the ellipsis that wasn't there before.

Also, some symbols in application names in app drawer (e.g. ampersand "&") are also incorectly displayed with several 'question marks'. This just bring noise into the app list and looks bad.

Examples:

Does it happen due to Defrost text encoding or something else?

Same font worked great on Opendesire so it is not font issue for sure.
[Desire Android Development] LordWhiteRaven:
Hi danfrance,

Yep I have an EXT 3 Partition with 512 and 0 SWAP on my SD Card (needed for A2SD from LeeDroid)..

Should I try to recreate that from scratch?
[Desire Android Development] rPAD:
Sometimes, i think you gotta wait longer. How long did you wait at the htc logo?

also, one time i had this problem, after i erased everything and flashed, it seemed that the htc logo took forever, so i rebooted the phone again and then i flashed the rom this time WITHOUT erasing everything. the htc logo didnt take as long this time
[Desire Android Development] Morpheus27:
Okay, I'll give it a try...

btw: the HTC logo stays about 15 seconds. after that the screen goes to black and there are blue or red stripes on it. It does not look very healthy for the display :)
