Just for information, here is my SetCPU profile after a while of usage. I experienced a better battery than with the stock rom (2.1 without SetCPU)

First, to apply a profile on SetCPU, on the main screen, you have to do the following :

- Auto-refresh must be checked

- Set on boot must be checked

- CPU Governor must be "ondemand"

- In "Profiles", "Profiles On" must be checked.

After that, apply theses settings :

Charging Enabled Checked

998 Max

245 Min

Battery usage is not important here but frequency must stay not to high to prevent overheat

Sleep/Standby Enabled Checked

245 Min

245 Max

Minimum frequency to preserve battery

Power < 100% Enabled Checked

1275 Max

245 Min

Maximum performance on demand

Power < 30% Enabled Checked

768 Max

245 Min

At 768Mhz, Android is fully functional and fluid.

Power < 20% Enabled Checked

499 Max

245 Min

At 499Mhz, most applications are efficient, even the web browser.

Temp > 50°C Enabled Checked

384 Max

245 Min

This is almost impossible to have a battery at 50°C. Anyway, it is better to have a low frequency when exposed to direct sunlight.

Re: [ROM-FroYo] DeFroST 0.5 Desire (Camera Autofocus,BlueTooth + APPS2SD working).

Can anyone comment on battery life with the non-OCUV 0.5?
[Desire Android Development] Androhyp:
Does anyone got problem with led notification battery ?

When charging battery, the LED notification is green at 90% but continue charging until 100%.

I had wipe the battery information, problem still here.
[Desire Android Development] masi0:

[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Update:

Version 2.6:

* 720p support (thanks to cyanogen,kali- and adamg)

* Update kernel to newest version 2.6.34.2

* support for slcd devices

* New superuser apk (2.3)

* Added Sim Toolkit

* Update Google Maps

* Update ROM Manager

* Update DeFroST Setup

* Upate Facebook (battery drain fix)

You can update with DeFroST Setup or ROM Manager. If you need to wipe when you have a problem then use ROM Manager (wipe in next version of DeFroST Setup). Mods for this version will come if the dev's update them.
[Desire Android Development] gianton:
Thanks for the update!

Do I need an ext3 partition to install this ROM?
[Desire Android Development] taylor162:
Defrost settings wont work for me, FC's every time! Everything else seems okay though.
[Desire Android Development] typhex:
same for me. and usb debugging is active. any other solutions?
[Desire Android Development] Remzy:
I can not unlock the phone joystick after the upgrade to 2.6
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Forget about defrost settings until i fix this. You can use defrost setup for mods/kernels.
[Desire Android Development] liamstears:
Does 2.6 have working blue led for handcent??

Lockscreen music controls possible??
[Desire Android Development] gianton:
Just installed, auto brightnes finally fixed in an AOSP ROM!

Great work mate!!! Will keep testing.
[Desire Android Development] taylor162:
I would do but ive lost defrost setup in the update!
[Desire Android Development] Nodders:
Anyone know a black notification bar that works? My usual one doesn't work with 2.6 (did with 2.5a)
[Desire Android Development] Ivanovic:
Do we need to perform full update from 2.4d to 2.6?

If not which files are needed?
[Desire Android Development] TxDLoaD:
post number 8000 :P
[Desire Android Development] wieben:
Still no LED support, too bad! We can put a man on the moon, but not make my LED flash all colours, go figure..
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
strange, defrost setup is there (/data/app/defrostsetup.apk)
[Desire Android Development] taylor162:
Hmmm so it is! I cant install it though.... strange!
[Desire Android Development] gianton:
maybe a full wipe will help?
[Desire Android Development] popyett:
I'm experiencing troubles with the Gallery app, I can't zoom in high res images, even when selecting one as wallpaper, it doesn't appear as it should. I never met this problem when using Sense.

Also, trackball movement recognition sometimes stops working and i can't find how to fix it except by rebooting.

(DeFroST 2.5a)
[Desire Android Development] taylor162:
Maybe, but i really really really cant be bothered! Ive got like a hundred apps, takes a while to restore!

EDIT: Oh and OJ death is still there!
[Desire Android Development] alstrike:
This can be probably the best post I´ve read in a long time :D
[Desire Android Development] fakts13:
from what i understand, the blue led does not have a hardware blink function. so unless app devs just turn on the blue led instead of using the normal blinks for notifications, you won't see the blue led. blame htc for not putting a blinking blue led on the desire.
[Desire Android Development] wieben:
No not just quite.....

I have been running SetRom 3.6 for a looooooong time, and this ROM has ALL LED colours working, therefore It must be a script or whatever, that some DEV's just don't include!
[Desire Android Development] gianton:
Trackpadwake not working any .zip file to make it work?
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
No it's not. search for the post from -Kali in this thread (and he is the kernel developer so i think he know's better :-)
[Desire Android Development] wieben:
Don't get me wrong, Im not hating on any of you hard working DEV's, and no I have no technical know-how my self, I'm just not understanding why something thats undoubtably works cant be ported to all other ROM'S.

:)
[Desire Android Development] fakts13:
does the blue led blink? no it doens't which means that rom is using IEF's workaround/hack that never worked correctly 100%, which is why any dev using the current aosp kernels and correctly implemented code do not use this "script"/code. ask app devs to implement turning on the leds instead of using the blink.

edit. i'd love to have the blue led working as much as the next guy, but i'd like a rom that works correctly more
[Desire Android Development] wieben:
I dont wanna argue with anybody, but yes the blue light works in SerRom, looking at it right now!:cool:
[Desire Android Development] taylor162:
Any ideas why defrost setup isnt there? Is anyone else having this problem or is it just me?
[Desire Android Development] popyett:
It works if you use Widget Locker as your lock screen, try it, it's great !

(any help to my problems please ? (previous page) )
[Desire Android Development] fakts13:
so the blue led actually blinks instead of just staying on? i only remember the led staying on and amber led blinking to create a purple blink.

not arguing, just trying to point you in the right direction.
[Desire Android Development] wieben:
It does blink, and not just stays on!:D
[Desire Android Development] fakts13:
heh, well i'll be damned. if it works for you enjoy it!:D
[Desire Android Development] vecc:
Jay!! 2.6

This is just wonderful! Thanks! DeFroST FtW!! \o/
[Desire Android Development] forelli:
THIS is a very good question. Anybody?
[Desire Android Development] taylor162:
It does, but you can't change the settings!
[Desire Android Development] forelli:
What do you mean by 'settings'?

android noob=...me!
[Desire Android Development] mattharris26:
Does anyone else get a FC when they go into Menu > Settings > DeFroST Settings?

DeFroST Setup still works though.
[Desire Android Development] Nodders:
Yup - get the same thing here.
[Desire Android Development] typhex:
The config file is there but u get fc if u try to run. Settings-Defrost. Try
[Desire Android Development] taylor162:
Errr well in roms like Cyan or opendesire you have specific settings, one of which is to enable/disable lockscreen controls. However on defrost if you try and go into these settings it FC. For me when im playing music the lockscreen controls are there so should be for everyone else1
[Desire Android Development] ephumuris:
Is it possible to remove Defrost settings if it doesn't work?
[Desire Android Development] forelli:
oh, I see! Thank you for enlighting me:p. All I know from android is with Rosie/Sense, and that's why I want to have a ROM without it in order to know the adroid OS better. I used to be a windows mobile freak, still having my HD2 though!
[Desire Android Development] taylor162:
Personally i prefer the AOSP as its faster and i use launcherpro. You can also overclock and the lockscreen and the dialer are much more attractive. However the camera app sucks and its missing a few other small things. Its really up to the person, im still undecided!
[Desire Android Development] flushell:
I can't install the new radio: 32.43.00.32U_5.09.00.20

Update

Version 2.6a update (install with DeFroST Setup):

* Fixed DeFroST Settings to control Music lockscreen settings
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Just fixed it :-)

Version 2.6a update (install with DeFroST Setup):

* Fixed DeFroST Settings to control Music lockscreen settings
[Desire Android Development] ksside:
richardtrip are you uploading 2.6a?? or i couldn't see it...?

i am looking forward uploading 2.6a
[Desire Android Development] dw515:
You can download it from the DeFrost Setup Application (;

Re-read the post above yours..
[Desire Android Development] mattharris26:
Can't install 2.6a update it says "error checking update file(s). Please download again. "

Anyone else getting the same?
[Desire Android Development] golfy2161:
Yeah same here
[Desire Android Development] BlackDragonBE:
2.6a update is great! Even supports the "red screen" battery save effect!!!
[Desire Android Development] flushell:
And here too !
[Desire Android Development] ephumuris:
Great work Richard mate!
[Desire Android Development] taylor162:
Agreed! After a full wipe everything works great. This is once again the best non sense rom!
[Desire Android Development] sandpappa:
I cannot install the update from defrost setup...
[Desire Android Development] jaxxhands:
Hiya, great rom thanks a lot. Just one thing since 2.6.. the camera seems to take green pictures on my phone and wont save them to the gallery!
[Desire Android Development] sandpappa:
I got that too, green pictures but they Åre saved...have to restore to 2.5 asap...
[Desire Android Development] Nodders:
Not sure if it just me, but trying to download 2.6a via Defrost Setup does not work. I can see it, and the Download and Install buttons, but when I click on Download it flashes through and then clicking on Install says "Error Checking Update File(s). Please Download Again". I've tried several times now.

[Edit]: Just read previous page - obviously not just me. Phew.

Change the ISO mode to Deblur, that fixes the green color.

The files are saved in sdcard/DCIM/Camera/
[Desire Android Development] Nodders:
That did the trick - thx. Looks like Defrost setup is borked for the moment though with a few people and we will need either alternative update links through this thread or just do to the site you note alstrike.
[Desire Android Development] bimbo1974:
Hi,

no trackball wakeup in 2.6? Can somebody confirm?
[Desire Android Development] ksside:

cant wake up from trackpad.
[Desire Android Development] mattharris26:
Cheers buddy. Worked a treat. :-)
[Desire Android Development] BlackDragonBE:
You can enable it from Defrost Settings->Input Settings in 2.6a
[Desire Android Development] zigson:
2.6a is very slow for me. Takes 10-20 secs to load the apps list. Also Gmail app not working and can't turn on USB storage. The launcher has FC'd twice. I've tried wiping and reflashing a few times, it just doesn't seem to like my phone.
[Desire Android Development] sjauquet:
Maybe you are low on storage, as 2.6 takes 12MB more than 2.5a...

I was not able to restore all my apps.

Richard, do you know this ?

I've also heard that some roms have a trick for more ram using some unadressed ram spaces...
[Desire Android Development] x01a4:
Yay!

Hope you enjoyed your holidays, but I'm glad to see you back ;)

I was unfaithful and tested OpenDesire during your absence, but DeFrost still kicks ass!

Or you can wait richardtrip add it to DeFroST Setup.

Comments on MOD's thread.
[Desire Android Development] ephumuris:
Isn't battery percentage part of the Defrost settings app now anyways like Cyanogen or does it not work?

Ok tested with a reboot and percentage doesn't work.
[Desire Android Development] zigson:
Yeah, it could be that low space is slowing me down. I've got insufficient space to keep my old apps on 2.6, and even if I delete a 5mb app from the phone memory and reboot, I'm not gaining any extra space.
[Desire Android Development] webrosc:
The percentage part of defrost setting is working fine for me.

I've try'd the cm6 blackbar mod from 2.5, caused a boot loop :(, i like my black status bar
[Desire Android Development] dw515:
It works perfectly :O

You have to confirm the color by clicking the color in the middle...

Then Plug it to the AC or computer or reboot and tadaa.. percentage :)

But didn't succeed in changing the notification-bar color.. hmm
[Desire Android Development] taylor162:
Use the inbuilt defrost settings, there is an option for custom status bar, and notification colour. Both work very well, but may need a reboot.
[Desire Android Development] webrosc:
i missed that menu in the setting thanks :D
[Desire Android Development] acolwill:
Doesn't work :(
[Desire Android Development] sjauquet:
Is it only me or the focus of the video camera is not working ?

In photo camera I have the autofocus working perfectly.

thanks !
[Desire Android Development] ephumuris:
Just noticed the built in battery percentage does work. It just doesnt have a 100%. Starts to show from 99%
[Desire Android Development] dark_knight_1408:
Thanks for your perfect ROM. But it's better if you could add Java to ythe next version ROM. Looking forward to this.
[Desire Android Development] benlaug:
Thanks a lot :)

A little feedback :

- The "Reboot" button is not translated (I'm French)

- The "DeFroST Settings" are not translated

- It seems that the update for 2.6a is OK, but in the Android preferences and DeFroST Setup, the version is 2.6.

and the most embarrassing for me :

- Ads are not blocked anymore :(.

Without that, the ROM is perfect :).

Oh, BTW, I can help for french traductions !
[Desire Android Development] ephumuris:
The reason for the version not changing is that the update is simply a missing apk being added. I'm sure Richard will just update the zip for the 2.6 release.
[Desire Android Development] poope:
Fc's at Defrost settings and when i try to install the patch it says "error checking update file(s) please download again"

Great rom Richard, thanks!

From 2.5a -> 2.6

Hi,

What is the best way to upgrade from 2.5a to 2.6a?

Thanx!
[Desire Android Development] x01a4:
Flashing the ROM in recovery, I guess?!? :p

I didn't need to wipe, if that's what you mean.
[Desire Android Development] jjplayground:
Oke, I will try to update through rom manager
[Desire Android Development] ephumuris:
@richardtrip CMparts/ODparts/DFparts has the ability to change text colours. Is this information saved to a file somewhere? So that we could edit it to make the rom start with a black bar and white text etc.

I guess i'm asking where the default values are and where the new ones are saved.

Thanks.

(Cross posted in other threads too to try and find this answer.)
[Desire Android Development] dw515:
Uhm... you can do this in Defrost Settings.. (i hope i didn't get you wrong)

Defrost Settings > User interface > Statusbar / notification colors

After changing it and doing a reboot you have your beloved blackbar with the font colors of your choice ;)
[Desire Android Development] ephumuris:
Yeah i am aware of this. What i mean is once changed the settings are still the same after a reboot. So where is this setting saved? And how can i change the defaults.
[Desire Android Development] sjauquet:
Ads blocking with host files was battery consuming...
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Update

Version 2.6a:

* Fixed DeFroST Settings to control Music lockscreen settings

* Reverted to previous version of DeFroST Setup.

Update from 2.6 to 2.6a with DefrosSetup won't work.

Bad signature

Try a lot of times ^^
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Try with rom manager. That will work.
[Desire Android Development] sandpappa:
Use Rom Manager to flash in the latest update!

hi Mr trip. 2.5A its not final :)

thank's to nice jobs ;)

Bye !

If you downloaded 2.6a update and put it on your SDCARD, FIRST delete that file and then download it with DeFrostSetup, then install. That works.

does have anyone also the problem with the camcorder by 2.5a ?

[Desire Android Development] dw515:
Are you using the newest radio?

If not.. install it via recovery or RomManager.

The link can be found in the first post :)

And otherwise... did a full wipe before installing the Rom?
[Desire Android Development] jjplayground:
Can you update from 2.5a -> 2.6a using the Defrost Setup?
[Desire Android Development] zigson:
Just to say that the 2.6 update is working fine for me now, didn't want anyone to read this and be put off from updating. I had run out of phone memory. I'm not sure whether 2.6 eats more memory than 2.5, or maybe I did something in Titanium Backup which affected things.

I'm confused about the camera, I can't focus on a certain area of the image by touching the screen to focus on a certain area. Is this how the app is designed to work or just me?

Just to congratulate you, Richard.

That's the best rom ever. Absolutely no problem for me.

I wondered if there was a chance to have the htc camera app for it.

I'm looking for some themes for this rom too. if someone can give me a link :)

Again congratulations!
[Desire Android Development] ephumuris:
This file doesn't contain any information on text colours from what i can see but thanks for that tip. Also i tried to export the colours to xml from DFparts menu but it doesn't work. No xml is generated.

The colours MUST be saved somewhere so they can be reloaded on a reboot though?

Hi,

Unfortunately, I have another issue :

Changing pages in my home screen is now very slow. And when I put my finger to change a page, it does not work every time.

Does anyone else have the same problem ?

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] jjplayground:
No problem here
[Desire Android Development] jjplayground:
Anyone who knows the answer?
[Desire Android Development] benlaug:
It's strange, I had no problems with 2.5a.

And another (stupid, I know, but I'm a beginner :D) question : is there a risk to install a mod like SVS 1300Mhz as crashing, overheating, etc ?
[Desire Android Development] GSO:
In 'spare parts' you can adjust window animation and transition animation. I don't know if spare parts was included in the DeFrost ROM. But you can also download it from the market (free).

Just give it a try, may be it fixses your problem, Good luck!
[Desire Android Development] Marsbar:
I thought that was an HTC-ism :( - along with being able to turn off the shutter sound.

Interesting observation with 2.6a: some of my gapless-encoded MP3s are now playing with no gaps; others are not. Winamp reckons that they all have delay and padding headers, which (AIUI) is how gapless works, no?

Any ideas? The ones that work seem to be encoded with FhG, according to EncSpot; the ones that don't are lame 3.97
[Desire Android Development] soppie:
I just installed Defrost 2.6a and i am trying to OC however when i start CPU and select custom frequencies, and set the setcpu.txt in the root of my SD i get the message:
