I had already posted a mirror

So, again :

0.5 update mirror

(France, 100 Mb/s)

Might be great to add mirrors on first post, no ?
[Desire Android Development] Groundless:
Great Work!

@richardtrip: Great ROM! Keep up the great work!

@Deovferreira: Thanks for the patch!

After Update to 0.5, i must enter "adb shell pm.." again?
[Desire Android Development] raangu:
Hi,

i'm new and i don't know for what i have to search...

how do i apply the update to 0.5? :confused:

thanks :)
[Desire Android Development] GeoTrail:
Thanks. Fast too ;)

What is a 'Wipe battery stats' means?
[Desire Android Development] emms007:
I'm using the "DeFroST 2.3 HAVS max 998MHz 800mV (max 998MHz)" kernel.

I am pretty sure something is wrong with the system/kernel (rather than a battery calibration issue).

As shown on the attached screenshot, my batt when from 73% (12pm) to 0 (5h30pm).

The Cpu is running all the time at ~30% (using 2.1, this problem was gone). All this CPU consumption comes from the suspend process (shown on other screens)

Hope this helps :)
[Desire Android Development] dougiebee:
What app is that you used to look at the suspend process etc? Suspend process belongs to the kernel I think? I seem to remember last time (2.0-ish) the suspend problem was intermittent? I just stuck the 2.1UV kernel on top of 2.3, will see how that goes...

edit:

Hmm on second thoughts maybe not such a great idea, get an error when turning on wifi now ..... planning what to do ....
[Desire Android Development] emms007:
The App name is SystemPanet, I bought it for this special occasion.

It's not that intermettent, it's always running like crazy when the phone is unpluged. Thanks for the advice, I'll also try to revert to a previous working kernel.

Im not getting how it can be perfect for some, and others have this Suspend process issue.. Any clue ?
[Desire Android Development] dirtyfrog:
Currently at 2.1, if I want to go to 2.3 do I need to do a complete wipe before upgrading due to the new kernel?

I'm currently not able to send MMS on O2 UK, have updated the APN details with the correct settings but still no joy. I'm using Handcent. Anyone have a solution, or is anyone on the same network able to confirm it works on 2.3?
[Desire Android Development] phillyjay:
Thankyou for this lovely ROM!

But i have a slight issue with it...i cannot seem to add a facebook account under accounts/sync to sychronise it... Is this a common problem?
[Desire Android Development] andy76q:
Updated to 2.3 with the uv kernel and after approx 12h of light use i have 76% left on the battery. With setcpu profile to run at max 245 when screen is off. Pretty good i must say.
[Desire Android Development] weirdNumber:
Do you find running quadrant more than once dramatically changes the score?

When I run it on first boot I get 12xx and the running it subsequently my score jumps dramatically to 15xx, last run was 1517 using DeFroST 2.3 HAVS max 998MHz 800mV (max 998MHz).

I havent bothered to try the higher clock speeds since battery is the most important part, but I might give them a run on my day off.
[Desire Android Development] Schaefer:
Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't. Thats why I chose to do 5 runs and exclude the highest and lowest.
[Desire Android Development] thefox1102:
Wifi issue seemed to be gone all day. Installed setcpu and enabled marketaccess. Wifi issue came back.

Have now removed setcpu. Rebooted. And have not enabled marketaccess. Want to see if wifi issue goes away.

Can anyone confirm rootcause being setcpu or marketaccess??
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Not a common issue. Try to clear data from facebook.
[Desire Android Development] herghost:
Make sure you have the facebook app installed :)
[Desire Android Development] stewcp:
No problems here and I'm on o2 and can send and receive ok... though picture size isn't great...
[Desire Android Development] dirtyfrog:
Are you on 2.3?
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Update:

Version 2.4:

* Compiled from source (AOSP)

* More languages

* updated chrometophone

* Corrected MediaUploader (picasa upload)

* Moved quickoffice to data
[Desire Android Development] hankhandsome:
I've been firmly using OpenDesire but with the changes you guys have made, you're winning me over .. might have to re-flash again :)
[Desire Android Development] darksite2008:
Dutch language available in 2.4?
[Desire Android Development] peewster:
Ok, this is just wonderfull. (AOSP)
[Desire Android Development] stewcp:
Now thats a major change... any benefits to this?

As always, great work and much appreciated :)
[Desire Android Development] peosb:
Anyone else havimg problems downloading the zip files? The browser just complains "Download unsuccessful" "the content is not supported on thos device". Downloading from within ROM Manager works tho no 2.4 tjere yet.
[Desire Android Development] robbiekhan:
No issues here but I just right click the links in OP and send to phone via chrome2phone for Firefox and it downloads onto the phone directly :p
[Desire Android Development] sffmandrake:
install 2.4 + kernel 825mhz,ok here
[Desire Android Development] korokor:
Anyone know how to stop the News & Weather app from running in 2.3? I've turned off auto-refresh in the app and killed the process, but it starts up again within a few seconds. Don't use this app so just want to stop it running.
[Desire Android Development] TheNose:
AOSP! Hell yeah!
[Desire Android Development] robbiekhan:
Argh!

Why is the Facebook app in /system/ ! it's a bit annoying because it's overwritten my custom version with transparent widget and I cannot uninstall it to reinstall the transparent version!

I suppose ADB needs to be fired up..!
[Desire Android Development] drako86:
AOSP ? I explain what ? ? thanks :-)
[Desire Android Development] Dunbad:
I had this issue. I went into applications and selected force stop. Seems to work.

but might take couple of goes.
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Yes,

[Desire Android Development] weirdNumber:
Installed 2.4 from 2.3 and first thing that happens on boot is Titanium backup requests super user access over and over and over (like 10 times or more).
[Desire Android Development] peewster:
Everytime a app (same apps) needs superuser acces the request popup shows up. Rember choice won't work, and the app requests the su acces everytime when it starts.
[Desire Android Development] robbiekhan:
Weird 2.4 running nice and fast but auto brightness in ambient lit room is setting itself to lowest brightness for anyone else?

2.3 never did this (as reported before!)

Edit*

Yes Titanium also root access requests multiple times for me too on boot.
[Desire Android Development] desire.:
I want to update from 2.3 to 2.4, but must i wipe before, and is it worth it, because im too tired to backup and restore and that...
[Desire Android Development] misterdev:
Same here. Switched back to 2.3 because I thought it wad a bug. Is it ?
[Desire Android Development] robbiekhan:
Battery usage meter is reporting Display as primary battery % again now, looks like the battery usage report bug for display (inc auto brightness bug) is back Richard?

Also With wireless enabled and connected the network data connection symbol displays instead of going away like normal.

Nandroiding back to 2.3 for the time being I think!
[Desire Android Development] atomfix:
Can you use this rom without installing the radio update?
[Desire Android Development] dw515:
Seems to be a bug..

I'm getting a su request (only 1 request) everytime I start Titanium Backup..

No problem with other apps that need su, like RomManager...

Btw.. is a pink - light blue blinking notification led the normal case or is that some issue? :confused:

(At least more exciting than the boring green one of the stock rom :p)
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Display primary battery % is not a bug. Just a different power_profile.xml in standard froyo (really nothing to worry about). I can patch it again but won't because it doesn't change a thing to the battery. Just how the stats are showed. And i do believe that the display should have the most impact on the battery (standard sense rom's are just showing it different/wrong because of the other power_profile.xml).

[Desire Android Development] robbiekhan:
Ah ok cool that's no problem :) - although the really low autobrightness compared to 2.3 is!
[Desire Android Development] Schaefer:
Getting Su requests spammed when running titanium backup. Atleast 8 times. The remember function seems not to work.
[Desire Android Development] atomfix:
Can you please have this rom without the new radio update please? I don't want to unlock my phones network just in case I need to get it replaced by another network blocked phone if I ever broke this one like I did the other day.

I very much like your rom, but please make the radio update optional. I can't even use the camera because of it :(
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
For a couple of days people are saying that it was to bright, and now with the standard aosp it is to dark/low ;) Did not change the values (i suppose all aosp roms have these settings). Lets wait and hear what others think about it.

Thanks for your comments btw.
[Desire Android Development] Schaefer:
Meh reverted for now. Don't have time to recover manually and the Su popup is driving me nuts lol. Anyway I'm sure it will be fixed.

2.4 looks very promising Richard. Very nice work again. Impressive changes.

Ps. I like the brightness in 2. 4 :-)
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
For a permanent superuser fix flash this: http://bit.ly/su222ef
[Desire Android Development] MikGriff:
Yep it's not bright enough at all in 2.4, Back to 2.3 for me.
[Desire Android Development] webrosc:
Your doing a great job :) will update to 2.4 soon as i only put 2.3 on last night

Is there any chance you can get the HTC stock PDF viewer into the ROM? It's much better than all the other PDF viewers out there and is very useful, cheers.
[Desire Android Development] andy76q:
just updated to 2.4 and now the facebook always go to my own page from contacts.

Just me or something with 2.4?
[Desire Android Development] hankhandsome:
just flashed 2.3 but think i'll wait .. 2.4 seems to have a few issues
[Desire Android Development] mr_clean5953:
6 system restarts since installation of 2.3 from clean wipe
[Desire Android Development] lpachuong:
I just tried with a Full-Wipe. No APN included in 2.4 :( I still have FC for quickoffice. Is there a whay for me to download and install quickoffice manually? Thank you
[Desire Android Development] Danifamous:
With this fix. (well i used the one in Rom manager - just easier) i keep having the **** has been granted superuser permissions...continuously...so its still not remembering them, just automatically pressing "allow" which is rather annoying when trying to type...
[Desire Android Development] DrDee:
Being such a complete n00b to Android (1 month after using iPhone since 2G)...

Please can someone answer me this, I figured out how to root and installed defrost 2.0g. If I were to update to the latest version of the ROM could I just download and flash the kernel update (boot into recovery with rom manager, wipe data/factory reset, install update from SD card) or would I be better off doing a full app and data backup via My Backup, wipe everything and install the full ROM and then merge the data and apps back in?

What are the implications either way?

This forum is fan-friggen-tastic but it caters more for the intermediate/advanced user and I know newbs like me get a bit lost when first getting into the whole android customisation side of things.
[Desire Android Development] Danifamous:
I'm not exactly a master of the root, but i believe you can just install ontop of the old rom... (i think - not 100%, but thats what i've been doing. I've only needed to wipe when trying different Roms, but not when installing updates ontop of eachother). If unsure, use something like Titanium Backup, which is the only Application backup i've used.. then full wipe, install a new rom, and restore apps.

Just remember to make nandroid backups just incase ;) It's a lifesaver
[Desire Android Development] cq.dude:
To Richard

I'm running leaked SENSE ROM atm cause of the wifi issue. I read somewhere that this is due to HTC driver issue and there's really nothing devs (making other FroYo ROM) can do at the moment. Is this right or am I crazy?

It's a shame though, cause I really hate Sense ROM. :(

Thanks.

no APN

no DeFrost Setup

no Quick Office link

brightness auto darker then on 2.3

Iam graceful for the Dutch lang.

And the use of the AOSP source :D

more languages (czech) :D

Richard, in the keyboard settings I get two entries for the android keyboard and one for the HTC IMEI one. One in dutch other in english, settings in both android keyboards are the same though (only the description of the keyboard is different, one english "android keyboard" one dutch "android toetsenbord"???

Also I can't make any calls or sync. Vodafone network won't connect. :(
[Desire Android Development] Z2k3:
Updated from 2.3 without wipe. Everything works well except for the superuser bug, it's pretty annoying, could you release a patch to fix this? Not the patch you posted above.

Great work anyway, keep it up!
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Already did a couple of posts back.
[Desire Android Development] OnNo_4:
I can't seem to install Maps... When i try to install them from the market it downloads fine, but fails to install. Could you put up a link to the original maps.apk or is there another solution ?

Other than that the rom seems to be working great. I just flashed it to 2.4 so can't say much about the battery issue everyone is complaining about. I did notice i dramatically lost battery life since i upgrade to FroYo though...
[Desire Android Development] peewster:
Indeed no apn list, but i do have the hsdpa icon.

After the su patch no superuser issues anymore.
[Desire Android Development] Leotronick:
Hi,

I'm using 2. 3 atm and i encountered some Problem with my WiFi. After i configured my university vpn where i need phase2 authentification @ pap it switches back to no phase2 authentification. It just wont keep this setting! Annoying

I used Set-rom befor and had no WiFi issues.

I hope someone can help.
[Desire Android Development] jastonas:
If I want to go from 2.3 to 2.4 do I need to perform a wipe?

Cant I just "upgrade"?
[Desire Android Development] Z2k3:
Richard, I mean this.
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
A new version is on the way. problem solved.
[Desire Android Development] oakgrove:
Does it support danish?
[Desire Android Development] Cactus42:
Can confirm the battery is fixed - 4% in around 3 hours with Autobrightness, going to see how far we can stretch it with manual brightness and the other kernels.

Had to manually add the APN's (but all the Froyo's get Virgin Mobile wrong anyway so no biggie)

HSDPA Icon working (with black bar mod) and haven't been kicked off wireless when changing to never and saving it properly. Just the SU problem now.

One question - Any ideas why the network doesn't appear in the top right corner of the lockscreen or on the notifications page like in the Sense roms? I just get Emergency Calls and No Service show up in the lock screen, but nothing when it's connected
[Desire Android Development] bimbo1974:
yes, you can choose Dansk
[Desire Android Development] dave7802:
Wow!!!!

People flood this thread with Bugs!!

Why not use the BUG Tracker: Click Here

This guy is a One man band, give him some sort of slack,

He is popping an update out every day,

All i read is people want want want and No Thanks for the Update,

Cut him some slack!
[Desire Android Development] sjark:
Yeah, cut this guy some slack. He is working hard to provide an awesome room, and all you want is more updates. I havn't seen any other room that gets updated as much and often as this one.

Yes the 2.4 room had some bugs, but report it in the BUG Tracker, and Richard will look into it, and try to fix it for the next release.

Remember, he dosn't get paid for this ^^
[Desire Android Development] jastonas:
True. Super thanks. I am willing to donate also since it is the best rom for me after some testing.

Questions: Can we donate to him?

2.4 supports greek?

From 2.3 to 2.4 we need wipe or can we just upgrade?
[Desire Android Development] Qliratu:
Sorry guys dident noticed the bug track :D

Ofc's we cutting him some slack he is doing awesome work, i dont expect him to solve it quick or something. i can live with the small isue's.

i just LOVE this rom its getting beter and beter and beter, and did i mentioned it's getting beter :D

EDIT: SU can be fixed pretty eazy just by applying the ZIP from the author

Hi Richard,

It's a good decision you made to move to AOSP than repackaging Nexus One binaries.

Does anyone miss the Gallery and Music apps after updating to 2.4?

They just disappeared....

P.S. Greek Language is here, huge thanks!!!
[Desire Android Development] Cactus42:
I think you're missing the point of a Forum. Yes, there are a few posting what seem like demands, but the majority of us are posting repetetive/relatively minor niggles in the home that OTHERS can contribute as well with workarounds and information, and also problems to find out if we are alone with certain things. There's no point in posting a bug report if you're the only one with the problem, or if one has been posted already, or if (in my case) you have a question about something pretty insignificant but are interested in a possible fix. We are quite aware this is a one man ROM.

This is far and away the best ROM Ive used so far.
[Desire Android Development] dave7802:
Sorry?

You say that the Bug Tracker is pointless because only 1 person may have an issue with 1 issue,

How do you know? By any chance have you even looked at the bug tracker?

There is a section that has confirmed by, and that is where other members put there name if they have the same issue,

Do you think Richard has the time to sit there and read every post made by every member, As well as making amendments to the ROM and pumping out an update every day.

Do you not think the dude has his own life to live?

Do you have any idea about developments and bug reporting?

There is a reason the Bug Tracker was created,

Its to report Bugs, Easy access to issues all other members can see issues instead of looking though thousands of posts
[Desire Android Development] scuddnet:
I noticed my homescreen links to those programs had vanished but i just added them again, the apps still appearin the drawer. I wold recommend you backup, restore to factory settings and do a fresh install.
[Desire Android Development] Cactus42:
I never said the bugtracker was pointless. Far from it. I said adding yet another minor, repetetive, known or insignificant issue TO the bugtracker was pointless when you can ask the question and maybe get a fix or workaround. And FYI Yes, I have seen the bugtracker and yes, I know all too well about development and bug reporting. I'd rather my team be asked the question than have 100 entries for the same problem in our queue.

I don't agree in the slightest that it's better to flood the bugtracker with innane queries than have them here where someone OTHER than richard might be able to help.
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:

there is one thing, i miss: 720p.....

wil you include this feature in one of the next versions?
[Desire Android Development] 420p:
No Sense, no FM Radio...
[Desire Android Development] discohero11:
Thanks for the great ROM. 2.4 solved the battery issues and I am getting amazing battery life with 800mV kernel whereas my battery life with other Froyo ROMs has been abysmal. Stability is great too (had a few hangups with 2.3). So this is, perhaps, the best Froyo ROM for Desire atm (at least for me). A few wishes, if I may ...

* 720p would be great

* More battery life ;)

* The free space is a bit on the low side (40ish Mb) whereas I was getting 80-120Mb with MoDaCo R5 WIP. That I find a bit strange since this is a more stripped ROM w/o HTC's fluff etc.

Thanks!
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
