I love your ROM and the new DeFroST_2.9_Battery_Percentage_Mod_V3.zip.

Looks godlike nice, is fast, battery live is about two days what is enough for a device like the desire.

Thank You!
[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
:eek: battery left 32h?

What are your settings?

I was happy when I got from 18h (LeeDrOiD) to 23h (DeFrost)
[Desire Android Development] westernmg:
I dont have very special settings I think.

I turn on mobile Data and Wifi only on demand.

Setcpu: Interacive min=245 max=1113

One Profile for Screen off = powersave min=245 max=384

Display Brightness @25%.

Thats it...
[Desire Android Development] jjplayground:
I get

I just update my Defrost to 2.9a with battery in C version. Its looks amaizing. Thank You very much for Your hard work.

So you don't have a (working) ext2/3 partition on your sdcard.
[Desire Android Development] jjplayground:
Nice installing
[Desire Android Development] jjplayground:
I do have a ext3 partition on my sd
[Desire Android Development] mitchmao:
OJ

Running 2.9a.

No issues at the moment apart from the

OJ

which dies randomly, from time to time, and drains battery at a considerable rate.

I assume 2.9a is running the test OJ kernel hack, correct?
[Desire Android Development] jjplayground:
app2sd+ issue?

Does this mean my Ext3 partition is not use, so app2sd+ is not working?

Can someone confirm app2sd+ is working on 2.9a?

Do we have to "enable" it somewhere?
[Desire Android Development] Marsbar:
Any clues what's changed? Will it reset back to black-on-black if I reinstall it? I can't be arsed if so, I'm not sitting there typing <del><del><del><del><del><del>ffffff ten times again.

Edit: Sorry, forget that, I was getting confused with the super-circle-battery mod.
[Desire Android Development] sjauquet:
Am I the only one to have this problem ?

Sometimes the camera display is showing squares colored in pink or green and the picture taken contains those "artefacts" looks like not enough memory.

Sometimes switching to video and back solves the problem for one or two pictures then the problem comes back.

It's difficult to explain, it's like the picture is sliding/rolling and the top of the pic is in the middle and the bottom is just above...

I have this bug with all roms and of course I wipe everything before flashing.

Here is an example attached.
[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
Isn't there the possibility to save the color scheme to .XML to be able to restore it later?
[Desire Android Development] CM Wave:
Installed 2.9a yesterday and I'm loving it so far, but it seems my OJ is dead. Must have happened overnight, it was working before and my battery dropped nearly 30% when I checked it this morning.
[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
a reboot

After a reboot your OJ should work again.

With version 2.8a I never had any problems with my OJ but with 2.9a my OJ died twice today. I think it was the 2.8a-OC-kernel I installed. I will try it with the original 2.9a kernel to see if it really was the oc-kernel.
[Desire Android Development] bodx:
hi, with kernel 1267mhz, when run some game or benchmark, phone restarting!!! wtf?

anybady have the same?
[Desire Android Development] sjauquet:
Just put in gsm 2g mode and use low level brightness ... ;o)
[Desire Android Development] ephumuris:
There is an option for that but it is broken needs fixing asap!
[Desire Android Development] aligoesnet:
I have the same problem since yesterday. no help yet

i closed and start the kamera app coupel times then workes
[Desire Android Development] RobDNiir:
Hey guys, this is probably a stupid question but how do you uninstall mods provided in the defrost setting app?
[Desire Android Development] Firebayll:
Hi!

I'm on defrost rom for three days and it's perfect except that i have a little problem.

In fact I use handcent for my sms and gmail notifier for my mail and I have notification when I receive new message or mail but no led notification... :(

I've search around the web but no good response for that problem.

Have you an idea to fix that problem please?

Thanks a lot.

( I'm french so I'm sorry for my bad English ;P)
[Desire Android Development] Mitchou73:
Sometimes, I have no unlock sound. I haven't found how bug come.

And my home was very slowly when I move to next desktop.

That's all :-)
[Desire Android Development] Preaxter:
Just wanted to share that it would seem my Desire is accelerating... As you can see in the attached image, the score is like nothing i have ever seen, and this is with a normal 1267 kernel downloaded from Defrost Setup...

I get more and more impressed with this ROM, and my wife just switched to Defrost too.

Keep up the good work.
[Desire Android Development] mattharris26:
I can't download 2.9a from DeFroST setup. Gets to about 60% then says Not present Error downloading. Any ideas anyone?
[Desire Android Development] bodx:
cool, i have max 1580, i dont know how to get more, with 1267mhz, can you tell me? :)
[Desire Android Development] Wombat:
If you want to force the highest score, just close all background tasks and use SetCPU to performance mode, then do about 3-4 runs of Quadrant...
[Desire Android Development] bodx:
ehh, kernel 1267mhz is not stable, phone restarting when i do a benchmark! :(
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
It depends on the cpu. Your unlucky your device can not handle 1267. Just flash the 1113 version.
[Desire Android Development] Nodders:
I'm confused. Given the forum, wont he/she have a Desire just like you and I, and therefore precisely the same CPU?
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Defer and kali just patched the kernel source (memory) so expect a kernel update tomorrow.
[Desire Android Development] ephumuris:
I have used 1267mhz since versions 1.x of your rom and i have never had the rom reboot or go unstable. Some handsets just do not like it. Mine LOVES it.

Even the same CPU can not always handle same speeds and remain stable. Loads of factors to include.
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
All cpu's differ even when clocked the same.
[Desire Android Development] aligoesnet:
hi i would like to change the dialer is it possible to make dialer one to my standart dialer . with the standart dialer i cant use speed search over the number pad like on the original desire rom .

or its is possible to set the dialer from defrost 2.9a like i want to use it
[Desire Android Development] weirdNumber:
Still getting the power button wake bug, where on some occasions it needs to be pressed 3 times for the screen to wake. Also I just lost use of the OJ. DeFrosT 2.9a.
[Desire Android Development] Dave Hagenaars:
i have the 1276 kernel and use overclockwidget for setting the cpu-speed. Is there a reason for me to use setcpu? Or is it just a matter of personal taste?
[Desire Android Development] jjplayground:
Could someone please give a clue about this. I am feeling not happy about this. Is my desire using a2sd+ with this rom. I am getting confused....

thanks

[Desire Android Development] sjauquet:
Hi Richard,

just my 2 cents,

You should have a look at LauncherPro, after buring the last villainRom into the Hero of my wife, I was amazed by the speed and feeling of this launcher.

I then installed it to my Desire, on your rom and IMHO it really enhances a lot my device, also it seems I've better battery.

Hi all,

What about this post:

Do you think A2SD+ can improve battery life ?

Thaaaaannks ;o)
[Desire Android Development] Dave Hagenaars:
btw, @Richard the grafical glith at the unlock screen is back again in 2.9a, don't know if you've noticed that one allready
[Desire Android Development] x01a4:

[Desire Android Development] le3ky:
very slow launcher pro helicopter view, seems to come with 2.7 upwards. anyone else having this issue, unsure if its the rom or not
[Desire Android Development] El Norupz:
a curious noob

Im very curious about this too!

I've installed the 3d boot animation by ? (I can't remember, but I got it from the download section in the "DeFrost Settings" menu.).

It wasn't what I expected, but now I can't figure out how to uninstall it :-/

Can someone help me?

This may be a very noobish question, but im still in my first week with a rooted phone.. :D
[Desire Android Development] java_saint:
Issue might not be due to rom or could be the kernel change . I noticed it happens when you add new Widgets. Closing it from task manager and going back to home screen solves the problem. If launcher pro does not launch,press home and select it or reboot your system.
[Desire Android Development] jjplayground:
Bad feeling a2sd+ is not working

I have the bad feeling a2sd+ is not working. Can someone confirm it IS working on 2.9a. I look likes discussing this issue is avoided :)
[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
I think it is working. At least Quick System Information tells me my ext-Partition is used with 300MiB. Phone memory has 77MiB left (I think t was something about 120MiB after the last flash with full wipe, so where/what are those 40MiB?) after I restored 70+ apps with Titanium and I'm able to access each app.

As to the mount as ext2 I think the ext-partition got formatted as ext2 after the last full wipe using clockworkmod recovery. But I'm not sure. Maybe the a2sd+ script itself mounts it as ext2 without checking the real file system type (even though it was formatted as ext3)
[Desire Android Development] jjplayground:
Is there one simple check to know if a2sd+ is working?

I have 457 Mb partition, 149 Mb free. Maybe just install some apps en see if the memory on sd ext3 partition will drop down?
[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
It's located in /data/local

Use adb or a terminal emulator to delete the bootanimation.zip and you will have the original bootanimation back.
[Desire Android Development] kmetek:
this LIGHT SENSOR LEVELS where to set them up? It's ROM dependant or what?
[Desire Android Development] le3ky:

In settings->DeFrost->user interface->automatic backlight->

1) Use Custom

2) Edit other levels...

Just awesome rom richard! Thank you for your hard work!

New kernels up.

New kernels up in DeFroST Setup.

998Mhz, 1113Mhz and 1267Mhz versions

Highlights:

OJ: new irq handling

fixed memory layout

Enable full light sensor range

introduce the BFQ I/O scheduler (not enabled by default)

All credits go to Defer, Kali and Cyanogen
[Desire Android Development] mitchmao:
DeFrost Setup returns a "Download failed!" notice.

Maybe servers are overloaded by eager DeFrost fans and users all over the world =)

edit

: NEVER MIND. Now it is working... just installed 1113 version... I'll get back with feedback...
[Desire Android Development] jjplayground:
Hi Richard,

Is a2sd+ working with this one?
[Desire Android Development] :
Is this a bug? I installed with wipe data & cache checked, ROM Manager and Titanium backup were pre-installed. I wiped phone (factory reset) and they were gone.
[Desire Android Development] Marsbar:
Great stuff! Only thing is, is this OJ fix the same fix as was in the "OJ-fix" kernel you did for v2.7? That version made things noticeably worse for me :(

[Desire Android Development] jjplayground:
How to test it?
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
No, its a fix comitted by defer yesterday.
[Desire Android Development] ephumuris:
OJ fix should be the newest one by defer.

EDIT: Beat me Richard!
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Yes

[Desire Android Development] joe_998:
Has it resolved the OJ bug or is it still in testing? What is the standard kernel in 2.9a? If I want to conserve battery I should flash the 998Mhz kernel, right??

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] yazooo:
I just installed Super Circle Battery Version C from DeFrost Setup on 2.9a and the text in the black bar is black and pretty much unreadable (date and time) now.

Can I uninstall the mod, or overwrite it with something else?

You might want to link to a different version of the battery mod.
[Desire Android Development] jjplayground:
Thanx I believe you, do not know how to test it :D
[Desire Android Development] ephumuris:
The services.jar has now changes so we can't change the text color in those files anymore. You need to go to settings, Defrost Settings, UI , and in here you can change relevant text colors to whatever you like. In this case white.
[Desire Android Development] ardsar:
EDIT - already answered.
[Desire Android Development] Firebayll:
Thank's

I've test and it works for orange and green/yellow color.

It's just the blue color led which doesn't work... (and it's the color that I used and I would like to use again if possible ;P)
[Desire Android Development] Marsbar:
Excellent, will give it a try!
[Desire Android Development] yazooo:
Perfect, thanks for that!

Cheers
[Desire Android Development] olaxe:
im having the same problem here...

tbh i dont know whats helicopter view :)

but my launcher pro is extremely slow and sometimes FC.

after restart (of launcher pro) it happens that some widgets dont load in the right way (e.g. beautifull widget and Pure messenger)

i just reflashed defrost without any backup of titanium etc.

now im loading the new Kernel and when its finished i give launcher pro another try

bye
[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
Not to forget that some color changes need a reboot to take effect (at least for me).
[Desire Android Development] ryanrich:
Excellent. No issues on 2.9a so far for me...
[Desire Android Development] jjplayground:
With Quick System Information I had the following stat before installing crush the castle:

SD Card storage: 1,61 Gb free

A2SD storage: 149 Mb free

Internal storage: 44,31 Mb free

After installing the game the stats are

SD Card storage: 1,60 Gb free

A2SD storage: 140 Mb free

Internal storage: 42,96 Mb free

So memory has been taken from all I would say.. this is normal?
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
You always loose some space on internal so completely normal.
[Desire Android Development] ardsar:
Yes it is normal, some parts of the app need to be on internal ROM.
[Desire Android Development] gianton:
Launcher pro running very smooth here, on 2.9a with new 998 kernel. System seems to be more stable with the new kernel, when playing 3d games.

Great job Richard!
[Desire Android Development] ardsar:
Found something strange......

Under settings, battery use, i have the following (for the last 6hrs uptime)

Dialer 56%

Cell standy 19%

phone idle 18%

android 6%

display 2%

Why is dialer so high? I have noticed this only occurs when receiving a phone call. Up until 2mins ago, there was no entry for dialer, however after a missed call, this has appeard at 56%

Over time, this will increase.

Whats going on - this can not be right????
[Desire Android Development] svrroot:
this ROM is getting better and better! great performance and perfect battery lifetime!
[Desire Android Development] mitchmao:
@ardsar, are you using Dialer One?
[Desire Android Development] nitrox1:
Sorry to say oj not working, after some time.

Also had lock screen lock out again.

[Desire Android Development] ardsar:
not sure - im using the one that came with the rom. I have not installed any dialer.
[Desire Android Development] mitchmao:
If you have not installed any dialer, then you are using the android one.

I am using Dialer One and having same behaviour you have... my current dialer battery usage is up to 71%. Only received a couple of 45s calls so far.

This should be investigated. aLogcat is not yielding any relevant information.
[Desire Android Development] ardsar:
strange that the "testing option" i.e. *#*#4636#*#* does not show up anything strange - all seems normal.
[Desire Android Development] mitchmao:
Exactly. 4636 shows no clue of this...

now "dialer" usage in battery stats is up to 81% from 71% in less than one hour I think... also slight battery drain here... phone remained untouched

i get permission denied when i try to access /data/local through the terminal, any ideas?

I believe if he is using this ROM, his phone is rooted.
[Desire Android Development] RobDNiir:
my phone is rooted...hence why im using a custom rom =P
[Desire Android Development] ardsar:
you need to put your device in recovery and mount system i think?!?
[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
:D

What I meant was:

I have a terminal emulator installed where I'm not root when I start it. Only after executing 'su' I am root within this emulator.
[Desire Android Development] ardsar:
it will keep going up until you reboot!!!!
[Desire Android Development] ryanrich:
Very weird ardsar, I don't Dialer showing up at all under my Battery Use...
[Desire Android Development] ardsar:
It only shows after you have received/missed a phone call.
[Desire Android Development] ptRpAndA:
is there any possible chance rather then using this dialer i can change the DIALER?

to those SEARCHABLE ones? the stock dialers?
[Desire Android Development] jjplayground:
Where do you look exactly to see the % battery it takes?
[Desire Android Development] jjplayground:
You have to mount the data dir. Use PC Suite for example.

I had the same problem, it would seem that it's only the "shortcut" to the program that is missing. I tried to install the app, and it just asked me if i wanted to open it. When I did, the shortcut was back in the app drawer.

Ill attach the apk.
[Desire Android Development] joe_998:
Had the very same problems, really don't know how you can say this ROM in stable, I've had to pull my battery 3 times because it stopped responding. Going to try the stock rooted ROM or just unroot and take the OTA update. Getting pissed off with this :mad:

Dont use any of the OCUV kernels and it'll be stable, you probably have one of the unlucky phones that cant OC at all...

Weird how so many people have problems with the OJ dying. I had the problem on Defrost 2.4d but it hasn't happened ONCE since 2.5 for me. I must be one of the lucky ones!

If a ROM is stable for 99% of the users, then it IS stable.

Unfortunately, you seem to be in the other 1%.

(never had any major problems with defrost, other than things that I screwed up)
[Desire Android Development] alienwolf426:
hi richard,

did the format for services.jar change for 2.9a?

because i'm trying to them and when i deodex the classes.dex in services.jar, its very different from what i've been used to.

So, i'm sort of confused if that was because of the new kernel or something you did?

Edit: nevermind, just noticed the defrost settings options. i still would want to figure out how to edit the color fields through services.jar but the settings options is good enough for now :)
[Desire Android Development] joe_998:
I haven't mate, I've flashed the battery mod and nothing else.
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Maybe you didn't wipe properly because it should be stable for everyone (if you don't restore system settings with titanium from previous 2.1 roms or anything like that)
[Desire Android Development] joe_998:
I always wipe with ROM manager before I flash a new ROM. Should I try doing it manually?

That could be it! The last time I used titanium was on a 2.1 ROM and when I flashed defrost 2.7 it installed apps I haven't used since 2.1. How do I take titanium out of the ROM?

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] ardsar:
Found the problem. It is caused by setting the option turn phone over to mute ringtone found under call settings.

If you go to Defrost Setup and install the "Super Circle Battery Version C" mod, you'll have just that. :p

Right. A black bar with black font ;)

You need to change the font colors in:

[Desire Android Development] nitrox1:
So Richard, does that mean we cannot use any kind of system restore, from titanium backup, or mybackup pro.

Because we port over system errors at the same time as restoring data? I thought it was more layouts and ring tones etc. (I use, mybackup pro, not titanium)
