Hello.

I tried to root the phone under Windows 7 and it didn't work but I did succeed under Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick Meerkat. The recover however keeps showing the red triangle with an exlamation mark at certain times. Sometimes it works and the recovery shows. I flashed the Clockwork recovery from within the standard root rom. Unfortunately I couldn't login to my standard Google account but I had to create a new random account.

Now I flashed the radio and the rom from this page and done a clear storage from the boot loader but I can still not login into my account. Please help. It says that the username and password do not match. I've already cleared storage and recovery barely works so I don't know what more I can do except maybe remove some kind of file?

edit:

Sorry my password manager hid parts of the letter. I can login now. The rom seems to work fine for now.

Update:

Version 2.9:

* Changed title of DeFrosT Settings.

* Fixed custom light sensor levels edit (DeFroST Settings)

* changed wireless back G-mode (n-mode module downloadable)
[Desire Android Development] nitrox1:
Nope, but 2.9 is here already,will try that one.

Sent from my 8-bit ZX Spectrum using semaphore.
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Wait a moment, something went wrong on upload and now i can't completely delete the file from the ftp (not my ftp so don't know what's going on there).
[Desire Android Development] joe_998:
Going to try it too but was hoping for a reply as to weather the bugs had been fixed. Seems we're not getting a reply so will just have to suck it and see :confused:

Hope it's sorted because I really liked the past Defrost ROM's.
[Desire Android Development] bodx:
strange, at first boot wirles work, but after secound boot its dosnt work ! :( just show me error!
[Desire Android Development] lpachuong:
still cann't downlaod 2.9a :(
[Desire Android Development] JaymZ37:
Hi,

2.9a download is working using DeFRost Setup.

I'll flash after downloading it.
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Update :-(

You wouldn't believe this:

Version 2.9a:

* uploaded with other version number because of ftp delete problem :-(
[Desire Android Development] DennisG1:
what is about the lock and unlock sound?

about the oj test kernel: at the moment everthing fine. i hope that fix will stop drani the battery for all time :)
[Desire Android Development] lpachuong:
Thx Richard...playing time :)
[Desire Android Development] ephumuris:
Richard...i hate you...i love you too.

Flashing time againnnnnnnnnn.
[Desire Android Development] abse:
richardtrip, the last release have a battery drains issue with autobrightness
[Desire Android Development] gianton:
I had a couple of freezes playing Carrom3D game... :( maybe due to lower voltage?

Switched to OD 3.1.2 and was playing without a single problem.
[Desire Android Development] ephumuris:
I thought this rom had same voltage as standard htc kernel?
[Desire Android Development] gianton:
Yes that's what I thought as well, maybe Richard can confirm.
[Desire Android Development] JaymZ37:
2.9a flashed, with WiFi N module :)

Everything is working fine.

Thank you Richard, hope I'll not flash a new version in some hours ;)
[Desire Android Development] reijosirila:
I see in changelog that you have added STK! Thank you Richard. You're the best. Flashing right now Defrost back :)
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
There is no lower voltage in my build. Should be no different than od. Please test latest version. Are you running 1113Mhz btw? Od uses 1113Mhz by default and my base is 998Mhz so please compare the same kernels.
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Absolutely not. You can set every value you want in defrost settings btw.
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Only for 1267 i use stock 1300mV max. 1113 is at 1275mV and 998 is at 1250mV.
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
@richardtrip you have put in your main post thanks to Kali- and deovferreira.

defer != deovferreira, 2 different people, kernel development was done by Kali- and defer.

Just thought I would let you know.
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
You are completely wrong. Deovferreira is defer's xda name. On github it is defer. Defer on xda is someone different.

In collaboration with defer (deovferreira on XDA) we are pleased to publish our work.
[Desire Android Development] gianton:
Didn't know that OD uses an overclocked kernel with higher voltage. Maybe that's why it is more stable due to higher voltage? Will try with your 1113mhz kernel later.

Thanks for your reply.
[Desire Android Development] gianton:
So 1300mV is the stock voltage, maybe you can make a kernel with stock MHz and mV?
[Desire Android Development] BlackDragonBE:
Why would you want the same power but more battery drain?
[Desire Android Development] markrs:
USB Host module?

Is there any plans to add USB host module to this rom?

I am looking to add it using the instructions on this forum (though not sure if it will work with the newer kernals) but would be great if it was an option on future versions of this rom.
[Desire Android Development] pa.pn2:
@richard

what do you mean in the first post with "linpack score: 42+ (if using setcpu.txt on sdcard)"

how shall i use the setcpu.txt?
[Desire Android Development] gianton:
Because of stability, for normal use/stress 1250mV maybe enough but when playing games and other stressful apps then it is not enough. Our device it is not just a phone.
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Not needed anymore. You can use setcpu without setcpu.txt.
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
They use even lower voltages for ages on the nexus in some kernels (1225 mV). If you want higher voltage use 1113Mhz kernel. (Should be stable on all devices).
[Desire Android Development] gianton:
Ok will do mate thanks.
[Desire Android Development] Preaxter:
I just have to say, after trying many different ROMs, I finally got around to this one, with the 1267 Mhz kernel, and OMG it's fast. And very good battery life as well. I was shocked to see my Quadrant, but I will attach it.

Keep up the FANTASTIC work.
[Desire Android Development] mobad:
Many Thanks for this Rom, for me its probably one of the best.

Only two issues, how do I get back the native android contacts and messaging app?

The current messaging app is not good if you use groups to send text messages with.
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
Maybe you could also give some credit to cyanogen and the rest of his mod team, seeing as half your ROM is based upon its frameworks, we dont want another ultimate droid fiasco.
[Desire Android Development] bodx:
how you get 1700+ i have max 1500+
[Desire Android Development] kirky_D:
Hi there!

First of all thanks for this rom! It's pure awesome!

I have a question about flashing the radio though.

I have an orange phone, which has obviously been debranded as i'm running defrost now :)

I have never flashed the radio because I dont want to be simlocked. Will I get simlocked if flash the radio to this

32.43.00.32U_5.09.00.20.zip

because i dont have an FM radio any more

Thanks all!

Special Thanks to Richard for this :)
[Desire Android Development] twicejr:
There is no fm-radio support, yet.

Htc sense rom does have it though, and maybe the non-sense too, soon.
[Desire Android Development] Nodders:
Downloading and installing the wifi-n addon from Defrost Setup leads to bootloop on my phone
[Desire Android Development] Preaxter:
I just used the setcpu.txt from post 2, and the 1267 Mhz kernel, downloaded from ROM Manager... And trust me, i was as shocked as you to see that score, but I got it three times in a row :D
[Desire Android Development] Marsbar:
OJ-fix kernel

Actually finding the OJ-fix on 2.7 downloaded through setup is making the OJ worse. I used to get the problem once or twice a week, had it three times today.
[Desire Android Development] pa.pn2:
@Preaxter

how did u use this setcpu.txt?
[Desire Android Development] ephumuris:
Select custom frequencys witht he setcpu.txt on sd root.
[Desire Android Development] Preaxter:
What he just said ;)
[Desire Android Development] DaTraS:

Light sensor

Just flashed 2.9a ROM from DeFrost Setup.

Unfortunately, the

light sensor

is not working anymore.

Sensor List (for free on the market) shows the light sensor is stuck to a value of 10 (max is 10240).

Obviously, autobrightness for screen backlight is not working, I got minimum brightness always and hardware buttons backlight is always on.

Am I the only one experiencing this?

Thank you for the continuous development.

Regards,

mbs

edit: just tried a full wipe factory + cache before flashing rom. same behaviour. light sensor broken. hard buttons backlight always on, screen brightness always fixed to minimum in auto-brightness. reverting to 2.7 for now.

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
Can I use the 2.8 1267MHz-patch from the DeFrost Setup with v2.9a?
[Desire Android Development] Enacra:
Confirmed.
[Desire Android Development] abse:
Your light sensor is not broke!.

I have the same problem with DeFrost2.9a. I try to fix it editing some values in Settings>DeFrost settings>User Interface>Automatic backlight>Edit other levels (you can see in "Sensor" how your light sensor works), but but still spending a lot of battery (

less, but a lot compared to before

).

If you see the use of battery (Settings>About...), this issue (Screen) is draining the battery.

Nightly CyanogenMod6 has the same problem.

regards
[Desire Android Development] n0ble:
I really do like the battery life and speed on defrost. However its not the best to look at without theme, can anyone suggest a nice theme?

Secondly, are there any camera apps similar to sense camera as the default camera does not seem to take very good photos.

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] DennisG1:
About light sensor

i've created my own light sensor setup in defrost setup. and:

- my display does not drain my battery (usage around 10%)

- my light sensor reacts perfectly after a light change (wrong english? :D )

- my screen is always bright enough

hope it helps.

one issue: the new oj kernel let my oj sucks^^ it works very bad...BUT no battery drain for now :)
[Desire Android Development] gianton:
Can you share these settings m8?
[Desire Android Development] mitchmao:
My light sensor, from both the DeFrost settings screen and the Sensor List application, returns a fixed value of "10/10" (on a scale of 10240).

Thus, the profile in DeFrost settings does not influence the behaviour of the screen. The light sensor seems not to be updating its value. 10 is fixed.

This didn't happen before 2.9a but now seems to affect also 2.7 (to which I switched back via nandroid restore).

Currently, I reflashed 2.9a and the same light sensor issue remains.

Any idea? Is this an HW failure? hope not.

Somebody else can confirm this?

Thanks

edit: so here is what.

the sensor is stuck to 10/10 and does not detect "minor" light level changes. when the phone is right

in front

of a light source, the sensor updates to a reasonable value. however, when back to normal lighting (average dim lit dormroom) is stuck to 10 again. minor changes to light level are not detected. the result is that the hardware buttons are always on.

BTW, the behaviour seems random and not reliable under non varying light levels...
[Desire Android Development] gianton:
These are my settings screen, is yours the same?

If it make so much problem, why include it in a rom ?
[Desire Android Development] chrissyg123:
I'm using the the audiomod update but am experiencing the echo, can i flash the noaudiomod on top of this or do i have to start over with the 0.4 rom?

also, what does the audiomod do? and if I flash without it can i still clock to 1.2ghz with the setcpu.txt trick?

Thank you sooooooooooooooo much for this Rom!!!!!!!!!!

It's awesome fast an the power consumption is incredible low! With some selfmade SetCPU Profiles i got a estimated consumption of 10% in 10 hours!!!!! And thats WITH "Auto Rotate Screen ON".......amazing....and much better than all 2.1 Roms I tried.

At least sorry for my bad english :-D

it is possible to seperate no audio mod and no oc/uv in 2 update.zips
[Desire Android Development] Androhyp:
Thank for your quick reply ;)

A last question. Since I flash this update SetCPU continue to under-clock to 245. I had disable it in options, kill it with a taskiller but I see with the application called "systempannel" the CPU clock continue to down to 245.

Is it normal ? Should I erase setcpu.apk with adb ? (because I can't remove it by the normal way)

Or can use it to downclock like with the other 0.5's update, the only difference is the kernel isn't UV ?

Great ROM and work btw thank you !

And again, excuse my english
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Do you use the setcpu active widget? then remove that widget (the passive one is fine).

One question guys... why would anyone want to mess with the Cpu speed? 1ghz seems enough, as does 1 day of batter life. I see no reason to overclock or downclock at this time.
[Desire Android Development] ulrar:
'Cause without it I have to charge the phone twice a day.

I use my phone, and I'm not the only one.

Music, web, gps, mails ..

There is no one day of batery life without underclock the CPU.

But I agree for the overclock, I don't see why they need it ..

I've set my max to 1 Ghz.

2.9a: Wifi stopped working when I installed the 1267 kernel, fine again with the 1113 one.
[Desire Android Development] mr_dinosaur:
I think the test OJ fix has been part of the ROM since version 2.8 if I remember correctly. All I know in the couple of days I used 2.8 I didn't get OJ death. In the few hours of using 2.9a I got it once. I only noticed when my battery went from almost 50% to 25% during my hour long lunch break.

I have this kernel installed but my WiFi hasn't quit working yet (I have 2.9a installed). But before with 2.8a and without the OC-kernel it broke down several times.

2 ways:

use the power widget. It let you disable auto sync from your homescreen

Settings -> Accounts and Synchronization -> Turn off synchronization
[Desire Android Development] mbroeders:
Well, there are several options. But the easiest is to use the power widget. There you have a sync icon. One press to disable autosync. I believe there are more widgets like that which you can find in the market.

apps2sd - data/data/ to system/sd/ ???

i just came to DeFrost from SetRom 4.5.

i am surprised DeFrost is quite nice. i especially like the DeFrost Setup Utility

as well as the additional settings tab in Settings.

i have found DeFrost to be quite unstable. i am still looking into this.

maybe its really only 5-6 min after bootup.

i have seen that you have some additional options regarding APP INSTALL DIRECTORY. i was wondering if you could make it possible to move some subfolders of /data/data/ to /system/sd/data/ ? i am asking because i had to sacrifice iGO Navigation and Google Earth. there was no space left on phone memory. moving the complete data/data/ folder has been proven to make android unstable. BUT moving the 4-5 largest folders should work, eh? :confused:

i just find it a shame that there seems to be a limit as to how many apps one can install.

Hi,

in the "DeFroST_2.9_Battery_Percentage_Mod_V3.zip" is the clock and the notifications black on black :confused:

mr. winterbottom
[Desire Android Development] mbroeders:
Yes, but go to settings -> DeFrost Settings -> User interface -> Status bar -> Clock color. Then you can at least make the clock readable using white color...
[Desire Android Development] zigson:
Each time the ROM is updated and I flash the new version, I lose a bit more phone memory. I want to avoid setting up a partition if possible. With 2.9a, I uninstalled a bunch of apps to get my available memory back up to 15mb so the warning notification would be cleared, but a few moments later it was back down to 4mb.

I rebooted, and found the apps I'd moved to SD had reappeared in phone memory. Weird.

I wondered if anyone has similar experiences, and if they have any tips on increasing phone memory without partitioning, and beyond the obvious ones of clearing cache and moving / deleting apps?

Also I've been looking for an app which shows what else might be eating my storage, because the apps are a long way from accounting for it all.

Cheers!

Edit - PS, great ROM!
[Desire Android Development] mr. winterbottom:
Ah, yes i've found this option. Thank you ;)

How do I enable Apps2sd+ on this rom as currently its on apps2sd standard.
[Desire Android Development] jjplayground:
I believe it is App2sd+ enabled!

How to check?
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
If for "standard" you mean the native FroYo app2sd, then you'll have to partition your sdcard in order to add an ext2/3 partition to it (add it after the FAT32 one).
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
Simply perform a

ls -l /data

command from a terminal window, either via ADB or on a terminal app on the phone itself. It should show the /data/app, /data/app-private and /data/dalvik-cache symlinks pointing to the sdcard.
[Desire Android Development] mrsimes:
Hmmm... not that simple for me.

I use K9Mail for my personal email and that ignores the autosync setting anyhow. So I could put the phone into flight mode, but then that would stop incoming calls and I also use Touchdown for my work (exchange) mail where I am on call and I have a rule setup to vibrate on certain subject lines. So I need those emails to still come through at night and wake me up.

Basically, I just need the notification LED to stop after x minutes like it does in Sense. Or maybe I ditch K9mail? Could the LED timeout feature be added as a Defrost option??? ;)
[Desire Android Development] mobad:
My internal memory is still being eaten out of with my external, so im assuming its apps2sd and not apps2sd+?
[Desire Android Development] mbroeders:
Ai, too bad its not that easy. +1 for the LED timeout feature then ;) (isn't there an option in k9 to disable autosync for the moment?)
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
Please perform the check I described @8414: if A2SD+ is enabled for you, then you're seeing the normal space reduction due to the /data/data directory usage, that cannot be avoided to date.
