cant install the setcpu... i get that i dont have free space!!!

anyone to help me please????
[Desire Android Development] hshah:
I am still using 2.4d and I have an issue with my headphones. After a while it will not detect any headphones plugged in, until I start my phone :(
[Desire Android Development] :
I know ROM manager, but what is it for? Like do I have to flash it when it appears? :confused:

:eek: Then what is the recovery.zip defrost setup makes before installing the mod for?
[Desire Android Development] mthie:
The update.zip contains the ClockworkMod. If you phone doesn't boot you can go to recovery mode, apply sdcard/update.zip und you'll see Recovery Mode of CWM.

Now you can restore an old nandroid backup etc.
[Desire Android Development] jjplayground:
Oh oh, I do not have a nandroid backup. Is it a good idea to make one now?

Is the original nandroid backup of a stock phone the same? My friend also has a desire which contains the stock rom. He wants to go to this rom too.

If he makes a nandroid backup, can I use it in case of trouble?
[Desire Android Development] GrandPuba2000:
I see on this link... http://xda.b42.nl/Richardtrip/ several new havs kernels for 2.5a... also 800mV and 900mV versions.

Don't see them in the defrost setup yet or the FP, are these the new updated kernels Richard? Are they still in test?
[Desire Android Development] Gerald.W:
oooooh new kernels. Groovy.

I too am having an issue with no LED notifications in 2.5a

Is it really supossed to block ads ? I see no difference at all with before and with that mod once installed.

As I can see on the hosts situated on /etc/ the file is empty, is that normal ?

May we add some real adblocking url's directly on that file ?
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Try them if you want. Have no time to update defrost setup now (later tonight). Running fine here.
[Desire Android Development] GrandPuba2000:
Let see what this will give us for future roms!

If my phone was not rooted I would wait to update to the 2.2 stock rom...

Maybe your not able to root your phone afterwards... ( but this is not the right thread to discuss this )
[Desire Android Development] GrandPuba2000:
Will do that when I'm home, in the train right about now...
[Desire Android Development] masi0:
you mean auto brightness?
[Desire Android Development] salahag:
I agree on the battery part, it feels better than stock 2.1 ...

As for the Market slowness, I had the same issue and was about to roll back to 2.1 as it was unbearable! Very slow plus acting weird as some "installing" statuses got stuck all the time.

What I did (I was on version 0.5) I did a Factory Reset, and after few tries with the Marktet it was fixed on its own.

Now even though I miss the Sense Dialer and Poeple apps, I am sticking with this rom. Many thanks to the developer.

By the way, I also had the echo problem with 0.4, but not when talking with the wired headphones. The seems to have disappeared after 0.5 update.

Edit: I seem to still have the Echo in calls problem in 0.5, but weirdly, not everyone I call is complaining about hearing an echo. Fortunately using the headphones solves the issue. Like someone mentioned earlier, I strongly believe it's related to it being a Nexus rom and the noise cancellation feature of that device.
[Desire Android Development] asci:
____Yes I do.
[Desire Android Development] acidoverflow:
I have a strange Wifi problem, after connecting to wifi everything is fine, but if the device goes to standby and I try to use it again after that it seems to be still connected, but surfing or using the market is not possible until I disconnect and reconnect wifi manually.

Anybody else can confirm this baviour?
[Desire Android Development] lpachuong:
I love it so much...Always support you Richard
[Desire Android Development] masi0:
I don't think that market slowness is related to Froyo. I have the same issues with rooted stock 1.15 rom!

Sometimes installation progress bar stucks for few minutes, sometimes it doesn't - i think this is the global market child age sickness than the problem of system itself.
[Desire Android Development] friedgoldmole:
Thanks for responding, I have tried a Factory Reset and will see if it helps. Fingers crossed, I had a similar experience when I first went from my G1 to my desire, and at the time I thought it was related to my google account.

Still taking a good 8-10 seconds to load the about section and a similar time to load the comments, screenshots and to show the permissions screen at the moment, will leave it a few more days and see if its sorts itself out.

[Desire Android Development] friedgoldmole:
The thing is the Market was very snappy on the stock rom on my desire (after an initial teething period of a few days) and when I say snappy I mean pretty much instant response.
[Desire Android Development] Keso.X:
Making calls?

Will I be able to make calls with 0.5? After 0.4 I couldn't make calls, only receive them and not send text-messages. Too bad I didn't check that before I went 60 miles from home and tried to call a cab.. had to email my brother and tell him to make the call.

Anyone else got the same problem?

Got "This Application is not installed on your phone" when i tried to make a call

and "Error: com.android.mms has closed unexpectedly - Forced close?" trying to send a text message.

// Keso
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
FroYo Market needs a bit for initial caching, if you keep using it for a while it'll become lighting fast as everything else in this ROM.

However, as I mentioned in an earlier post I faced a major issue that leaded me to rollback to 2.1: all programs (not widgets!) installed to sdcard suddenly disappeared after a couple of days of use. No way to gain them back, needed to reinstall all of them (although they was actually installed and visible in the Applications->Manage list). That happened twice.

Anyone else noticed this? I think it was as the sdcard wasn't detected in time when powering up the phone; however, the card works perfectly.
[Desire Android Development] hotweiss:
Maybe this can help you with the market problem:

[Desire Android Development] martinlong78:
I'm not sure the first bit is necessary... Richard's build already uses ERE27 in the fingerprint.

Saying that, I've just tried the checkin stage, and I seem to get an improvement. Might just be a fluke.
[Desire Android Development] friedgoldmole:
How long would this initial caching take? Mine is still really slow after a factory reset and quite a bit of market browsing. I also don't get the Top Paid list though it does show paid apps in the Just In and through a search for apps.

I did have this problem when first getting my desire and some people suggested it was related to the google account, i.e. someone created a new google account and that did not suffer any slowness in the market vs there existing google login they had used since getting a G1.

Liam
[Desire Android Development] Twau:
Is it somehow possible to just remove the audio mod? If I wanna keep the OC/UV?
[Desire Android Development] friedgoldmole:
Well the Factory Reset seemed to do the trick, Android Market was initially still really slow but is now back to full speed and I can view the Top Paid tab as well, as is well, phew :-)
[Desire Android Development] martinlong78:
Of course

Download 0.5 and the modded version. Compare them (beyond compare is good for this). Change the bits you want. Re-sign (search this forum for how... there's a tool that does it for u)... and voila

EDIT Actually... thinking about this, you might need to find a suitable kernel... have a go... see how u get on.
[Desire Android Development] Spoinky:
I'm using the modded version, having no problems with sound here, is it device related?

Also wondering with SetCPU does the Sleep/Standby profile applies on locking the device with the power button when playing music? Since me riding home from school while streaming internet radio took about 10% battery (20 minutes drive).
[Desire Android Development] miketurbo5:
Excellent, but bugs still present of course...

i think this is the best port, if any, out there for the Desire. Congratulations! I just want to point out some of the things that I noticed/experienced when using Froyo ( w/ 0.5 update ) on the Desire:

*No headset icon when headphones are plugged in ( don't know if this is Froyo standard, but i actually hate the icon, so this is a plus! )

*Edge connection is perfect, seems to be even better now with Froyo than Eclair w/ Sense UI ( i am on AT&T in US, if it means anything )

*Optical trackpad responds to my finger sliding 10000 times better. Before the port, it rarely reacted to any of my finger gestures!!!

*Phone boots much faster...... A HUGE plus!!!

*USB icon occasionally stays on even when unplugged from computer

*Charging light occasionally stays on when unplugged from power supply

*Wi-Fi can stutter a bit ( ex: market loads apps, then says "no connection, want to try again?" When i click try again, it goes back to normal. Soon, same thing happens again )

*When there is only one photo in the library, i cannot delete it. When there are multiple photos, i can delete them individually, until there is one photo left, and I cannot delete it. ( a slight glitch, doesnt bother me )

*Video Camera doesn't work ( no problems here, i rarely use it anyway )

*LED light sometimes flashes, not always ( no problem here either, knew this before installing Froyo)

*When phone powers up, first time you unlock screen, there is a "System error" message. I click on Force Close, and everything seems to be ok. ( The pop-up is just annoying!!! )

*Compared to Eclair w/ Sense UI, Froyo is a bit laggy. Since this is a port, and most likely still in beta, I cannot complain!:)

My post is not to complain, in fact the opposite. I HATE HTC's SENSE UI, and its custom apps. I will NOT update my phone to 2.2 Froyo w/ Sense UI. This is why i really would like to have this port as good as it can be. I support the developers, and i hope that in the next few updates, everything will be 99.99% functional. Thanks for all!!:):):)
[Desire Android Development] martinlong78:
I'm surprised it didn't use more. That's actively using CPU and mobile data.
[Desire Android Development] jjplayground:
Only few apps can be moved to SD card

I can move only a few apps to my SD card. For most apps the button move to SD is grayed out.

What can I do about this?

Please help, my phone memory is almost full...

I have changed the location to "External Media" with DeFrost setup. Now I can move a lot more programs.

Is this the way to do it???
[Desire Android Development] Mountainjew:
Only the apps which support native Apps2SD will allow you to move them to the SD card. Until then, you have to create an ext3 partition. Rom Manager makes this easy to do. Just install it and choose partition SD card, and create a 512MB partition for your apps. When you restart, all the installed apps will be moved.

Sheesh, you'd think people would know this by now...
[Desire Android Development] photek1000:
As we all like to discuss battery performance on here, here's mine as I believe it's now pretty close to what it was with Stock Sense 2.1

Running DeFroST 2.4d, not feeling compelled to update as it's slick and functional.

I ran the phone to the state it powered it's self off, which annoyingly was at around 13-14% remaining, then did a Battery Wipe from recovery.

Then a full charge whilst powered off on Monday night, booted early Tuesday and it hasn't seen power since.

It's now at 2% but still running, before it would turn off just after the warning.

That's a Up time of 32hrs 20 Min with reasonable usage, browsing, phone calls, SMS, email, music, games, general messing about as I can't help it maps, Chrome to phone, downloading apps, bit of you tube, and probably others.

I have Wi-fi and Data always enabled.

Loving it, now if i could get back to charging every 48 hours I would be chuffed but this is a lot better than what I was getting before the battery wipe and deep cycle charge.

Quick update, the phone actually hit 0% and kept running for a while, so total uptime was 32 hrs 46 minutes, and in it's last seconds I was still browsing the web quite happily.
[Desire Android Development] jjplayground:
But i did not made an ext3 partition. I only changed the location to External Media with DeFrost setup. After that I was able to move them to the SD card with the button.

I am confused... :(
[Desire Android Development] mrsimes:
Woohoo!!! 800mV kernel now up and running on 2.5a.

So far so good!

Great work Richard - donation from me tonight when I get home. :) :)
[Desire Android Development] Mountainjew:
Don't worry about the DeFrost setup. Just install Rom Manager, and choose the option to partition SD card. Once you do that, Apps2SD will take care of the rest and all your apps will be moved to the Ext3 partition. :)

It will wipe the SD card, so back up any valuable info before doing it...
[Desire Android Development] GrandPuba2000:
Hi Richard, since i'm in the train, I thought I download the direct link but I was unable to do that from this rom. Will do it at home, do you know way i cant download the file? Is this a problem in the rom ?
[Desire Android Development] discohero11:
Indeed ... I can leave 2.4d behind once Richard confirms that they are ready for use ... or someone else for that matter ;)

Amazing ROM! Thanks.
[Desire Android Development] jjplayground:
Thanx man. Last questions:

1. Can I use the other unformatted part of the SD card (it is 8 gb) for FAT32 after making a Ext3 partition and can I put here maps for nav, music, etc on it?

2. Will the widget still work after rebooting the phone. I read the widget installed on the SD will not work after a reset.

3. With the DeFrost setting "External Media" my new installed apps are moved to SD too automatically without making an Ext3 partition; so what is the advantage of the Ext3 partition. I do not want to be an jerk but want to understand it...

Thanks in advance!

Has anyone got MMS sending working? Using 2.4d and it just gets stuck on sending. Have tried putting in the settings for T-mobile (UK) in manually and gave no difference. :(

Battery life is much better on stand by though, using around 0.5% an hour which is much better. :)

Hi Richard,

Some stuff I noticed with 2.6.34.1 HAVS800 @998

(I'm sure you'll have noticed that too, but just in case)

*) Two GPIO warnings with full stack traces:

WARNING: at drivers/gpio/gpiolib.c:103 gpio_ensure_requested+0x4c/0x110()

WARNING: at drivers/gpio/gpiolib.c:103 gpio_ensure_requested+0x4c/0x110()

*) kernel tries to write to the system partition (why?) while it's locked RO and yaffs fails miserably during boot:

<7>[ 27.318725] **>> Block 930 needs retiring

<3>[ 27.319519] msm_nand_write_oob be00000 800 10 failed -5

<7>[ 27.320129] **>> Block 931 needs retiring

<3>[ 27.321014] msm_nand_write_oob be20000 800 10 failed -5

<7>[ 27.321624] **>> Block 932 needs retiring

This also marks 5 NAND blocks bad, but with 2.6.32.4 they seem OK.

*) HAVS does not log a single thing, like it's not there. This may be due to working silently though, not sure.

[Desire Android Development] :
Facebook detects 2.5a as droidx :o lol.
[Desire Android Development] dnlgee:
If it's empty then it won't block anything at all. The general idea of the HOSTS file is to route a url to a different IP address. So if I was to enter 127.0.0.1 youtube.com in a line in the hosts file and then typed youtube.com in the browser url bar, it would in theory re-route that to 127.0.01 (Which is my machine) and it would show an error screen as there's no http server setup and no pages.

Hope this helps.
[Desire Android Development] discohero11:
There is a link to apk a few pages back.

Looks like HTC might finally roll out 2.2 tomorrow according to the rumor mill. Would that make it easier to get 720p working with this ROM? Don't miss anything else from Sense ROMs.

[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Not true, its in the services.jar.
[Desire Android Development] mrsimes:
That's interesting. I've had almost *exactly* the same percentages as you with the 800mV HAVS kernel but on 2.5a.

Mine was at 80% when I went to bed at 00:00 and when I got up at 08:00 it was down to 49%. Also, when I woke it up in the morning, it was mega laggy almost to the point where I thought I'd need to reboot it, but then it recovered.

I've flashed the 925mV SVS back again for now.

Apart from battery consumption, for the time I was running the 800mV I did not notice any weird behaviour as some have experienced.
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Took the HAVS kernels offline. Not 100% satisfied with them. My SVS kernels are undervolted also, so i don't think the difference would be that much (950mV to 1250mV max for the 998Mhz kernel).
[Desire Android Development] Marsbar:
I was thinking about this last night. How easy would it be to knock up an app that listens on 127.0.0.1 port 80 and returns an empty html page for any request (or gif file if it's a gif request, png if it's a png request &c)?

I assume it would need root access to listen on port 80 but given that it would only be needed for ROMs with adblock'd hosts that would seem not to be a problem.

That way people can be happy that they're not viewing ads and using their bandwidth but the apps won't start going mental because they're not getting the response they expect.

Just a thought.

Hi Richard,

Would you recommend not using the HAVS kernels then? I have been running mine since yesterday and seems ok, with battery life seemingly improved.

Are there any risks if I keep running it?
