Does anyone have a list of apk's that are actually safe to remove? I've removed a few without bother, but it's kind of tedious removing 1, then restoring it after realising it's not good!
[Desire Android Development] rveupen:
Stock rooted 1.21

May I ask where you got that stock rooted 1.21? And is it with 0.75 Hboot?
[Desire Android Development] St4hli:
I can only find the option to choose the Silent mode, and this mutes my phone but I still can't switch from mute to vibrate with the volume buttons. Did i miss anything?

Or is it because I'm on 5.3?
[Desire Android Development] nitrox1:
Found this in another thread:

Smartass governor -is based on the concept of the interactive governor. I have always agreed that in theory the way interactive works -by taking over the idle loop -is very attractive. I have never managed to tweak it so it would behave decently in real life. Smartass is a complete rewrite of the code plus more. I think its a success. Performance is on par with the "old" minmax and I think smartass is a bit more responsive. Battery life is hard to quantify precisely but it does spend much more time at the lower frequencies. Smartass will also cap the max frequency when sleeping to 352Mhz (or if your min frequency is higher than 352 -why?! -it will cap it to your min frequency). Lets take for example the 528/176 kernel, it will sleep at 352/176. No need for sleep profiles any more!

[Desire Android Development] rPAD:
Sorry, i guess i didnt make it that clear, i did run it 3 times in a row and took the best score than changed profiles, and repeat
[Desire Android Development] cezarL:
Right, that's exactly why I was asking if we could lose the sleep profile in SetCpu, with the governor is set to 'smartass' (more like... doublechecking, to be on the safe side:) ).

5.9 seems to have fixed flash for me, at least iplayer worked ok for me just now.
[Desire Android Development] kelix:
uhhh. 5.9a HAVS gone
[Desire Android Development] InspectorFrost:
small mms received only

im on 02-uk

send ok

apn's are ok

mms always work fine on sense based roms

but always screwed on asop

any help ?

(messages received are about a quater the size they should be)

i cant be the only one
[Desire Android Development] hamdir:
i did a full wipe and installed defrost 5.9 for the first time, after i had cyanogenmod

im facing serious responsivness issues :confused: the whole interface has a stutter feel,
[Desire Android Development] UpSpin:
oha, so many new versions. Can't keep up with updating my phone :p Still use 5.7 with 5.5 Havs kernel. So I have to do an update soon :)

The smartass governor looks interesting.

The Quadrant comparison is stupid. How should performance be faster than OnDemand or Smartass. They are the same, in theory. The max. clock speed is the limiting factor. In reality there's always a little difference. To best compare you have to do a fresh reboot, go to airplane mode, kill every process and service possible and run the test several times. You shouldn't be able to find a difference between each governor using Quadrant.

However, this doesn't mean that those governors behave the same while using, because there you don't stress the CPU all the time. There the CPU is idle, gets a load peak a few milliseconds, then is idle again. So there Smartass can really give us a smoother experience while improving battery life.
[Desire Android Development] nikosrs4:
Try setting it to 24, not 32. I remember having lag problems with 32 but now I'm at 24 with no probs.
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Opposite for me
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Did you ever.restore from other roms with titanium?
[Desire Android Development] Marsbar:
I doubt if there are that many people regularly using MMS, to be honest. It always seemed to me to be expensive and clumsy - to be used as a last resort - and with inclusive data contracts and decent email clients I can't see why you wouldn't just use that instead.

The specific problem - the received size being wrong - could be related to the user-agent (Messaging->Menu->Settings->Custom User-Agent).

Anyone know what the HTC stock desire ROM's user-agent is?

Or do you mean that messages you send using DeFroST are received shrunk at the other end?
[Desire Android Development] ajanu:
Any time you flash Defrost, you are flashing the 998svs kernel. You can't flash say 5.9 and still be running 5.5 kernel, unless you install it from your SD card after you flash.
[Desire Android Development] JaymZ37:
Hello guys.

I've just flashed 5.9 (full wipe before), and I've go FC when trying to configure my Google Account (android.process.acore). No way to add my Google Account even through "Contacts" or "Parameters" :(

Going back to 5.8...
[Desire Android Development] ajanu:
Doesn't LeeDroid come with with market enabler installed? Been a while since I used a sense rom but I thought that was one of the selling points of LeeDroid.
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
I installed 5.9 myself with a full wipe before release and it was fine.
[Desire Android Development] ClassicalGas:
I've updated my themes for Defrost 5.9.

Enjoy and to keep post relevant post queries in the theme thread not here.

Thanks richard trip! 5.9 is running great.
[Desire Android Development] JaymZ37:
Thanks for answering me Richard.

I explain you :

I did a full wipe, and format all partitions.

Flashing 5.9 without any problem. At first boot, i skip the account counfiguration, because i prefer flash the Apps Pack before configuring my account.

And when i try to add my Google Account, no way, even in "contact" or "parameters". In fact, in "parameters" i dont' have the account Menu :( very strange no ?

Edit : after flashing the AppPack, the "Account" menu appears in "Parameters", but my phone reboot when in try to open the "Account" settings...
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Any kind of datarestore done?
[Desire Android Development] emree025:
fantastic update v5.9 everything works like a charm.

Richard thank u verry much
[Desire Android Development] JaymZ37:
No, i never use Titanium or any app like this.

But I think i found what's wrong... I use the topic about MTD Partitions, everything was fine, and before installing DeFrost 5.9, I format all partitions. Flash goes well, but when i try to add a Google Account, i've got FC everytime.

So i reconfigure the MTD partitions (160 / 60), flash DeFrost 5.9 + AppPack, and now, everything is fine.

In fact, i don't know how to revert to original state after using the MTD Custom...
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
You set it with Menu, Settings, Accounts & Sync, Add account, Google, next.......

Is that missing, FC or what exactly? You already fixed it :-)
[Desire Android Development] z0mbi3:
Does anyone else find they have to occasionally press the home button twice to get the screen to turn on on this latest rom?
[Desire Android Development] asmaridis:
You misunderstood me. Im repeatedly having to reflash old kernels because the newer ones cause severe lag problems.
[Desire Android Development] endursa:
I'm on defrost since 5.8 and today did a clean reinstall of 5.9

but i face the same problem since both versions, when i try to use estrong file explorer in root mode with rw mount on my system folder, i get the problem that on the second start of estrong it can't mount anything i have to uncheck the root option to get it working again!

i was on mcr r9 before, there it worked perfectly

is there a way to solve this? either another root explorer or a fix?

and i also got a little lag with launcherpro plus!
[Desire Android Development] JaymZ37:
Yes Richard, Menu, Settings, Accounts & Sync, Add account was missing before installing AppPack, and after installing it, i got FC when i select Accounts & Sync.

I also try to revert to 5.8, and I also get this FC :( And so i guess the problem was with MTD Custom, because it's the only thing i do before trying to install 5.9...

So i fix it, and now, i've got 233Mo free to install my apps.

Thank you for your help, and thanks for your work, this rom is getting better at every new release.

And excuse me for my poor english ;)
[Desire Android Development] buzmay:
5.9 with HAVS kernel works great for me, no problem at all even the wifi modules does not make any trouble.

Battery life is also very acceptable.

Thanks a lot Richard :)
[Desire Android Development] redlabour:
Agree this is hardly missing.
[Desire Android Development] mastermax12:
Menu->Sound-> Tick Silent State ;)
[Desire Android Development] duryard:
Been running 5.3 for a day or so now and back to work today so was using Co-pilot as my pefered Sat nav as I can program it for HGV (sort of). Phone crashed out 3 times during the day needing a Battery flip. Not sure if this was the rom or copilot (Its a paid for version) but would welcome comments???
[Desire Android Development] Marsbar:
Which 5.3 kernel? The special 5.3 HAVS kernel is unstable on a number of phones.
[Desire Android Development] St4hli:
since when is this implemented? I'm using 5.3 atm and i can't find this option in the sound-settings. I can only tick the normal silent mode and use following options for vibration:

-always

-never

-only in silent mode

-only when not in silent mode

Have there been any changes since >5.3?
[Desire Android Development] mastermax12:
I don't know. I'm using this feature since 5.8 (now i`ve got 5.9 on my Desire)
[Desire Android Development] nehro:
sorry for this question but someone told me that this rom doesnt work with sense, is that true ??
[Desire Android Development] reidar.ostrem:
Try booting without your SD card inserted.
[Desire Android Development] St4hli:
Okay, I'll update, then it should work ;D

Danke :p
[Desire Android Development] webrosc:
Correct, this is a non sense rom
[Desire Android Development] gutsbn:
The SVS kernel for 5.9: is there a "standard" 998 one please?

I don't want to overclock.

Or is it 998 by default unless I use setcpu or such?
[Desire Android Development] ajanu:
The ROM installs with the 998svs kernel. If you install any other kernels, they will run at 998 untill you use SetCPU to over clock them.
[Desire Android Development] nehro:
again sorry i have now stock RUU froyo on my desire so with this rom will i have something less than i had with my stock froyo?? sorry because itsnt clear 4 me.
[Desire Android Development] Kreeeee:
Even on the latest Rom I get lockups when I am watching a video in a low signal area such as on a train journey. I have no issues in airplane mode or when I am always in a good signal area.
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Yes 998 is standard
[Desire Android Development] webrosc:
Its 998 by default
[Desire Android Development] ajanu:
You will lose the e-mail app, all the HTC wdgets, the twitter progam, stocks, weather and a bunch more things. The phone will not look the same.

Some people like the Sense features, some don't. If you realy want to know what's missing, back up your current ROM, wipe/factory reset, and install this rom, or Open Desire, Cyanogen, or any other AOSP rom. It is verry easy to switch between the 2 once you have made nandroid backups.
[Desire Android Development] gutsbn:
webrosc, danfrance, ajanu: Thank you
[Desire Android Development] nehro:
ok many thnx for ur reply, my question now is does rom leedroid v2.2e contain these missing things here in this rom??

what is the diffrence between leedroid v2.2e and defrost 5.9 // and which is better // and why??

sorry for all this question but i cant get a right answer on them and i which i get them from u..thnx in advance
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
HAVS kernels updated

HAVS kernels updated (5.9b)

Now there is a kernel with 875mV minimum (not stable on all devices, but it is on mine).
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
5.3a is stable for me. Is this same voltage? Last fm didn't like any if the 5.8 kernels for me.
[Desire Android Development] ajanu:
LeeDroid is based off of what you have now, with a bunch of tweaks to make things better. Defrost is based off of the official Android release and has nothing that HTC has made besides the FM radio, which i belive was built from scratch once they got the kernal part figured out.
[Desire Android Development] z0mbi3:
Is anyone finding their radio stack keeps restarting on 5.9 when using toggle 2g?
[Desire Android Development] dakore:
Look at the two screenshots I've attached, you'll see question marks in address bar (browser pic) and SMS backup and restore app (app drawer pic).

Anyway, I've figured out the problem is with Tuffy font since some other fonts works great. However, Tuffy is working great on Opendesire...
[Desire Android Development] harleym:
Thought I'd give 59b kernal a go...

Hi,

I've been flashing the latest Roms since 4.1 & everything has generally been pretty good for me. So now confidence brimming, I flashed rom 5.9 & all was so good I thought I'd try 59b (875mV) & was met by a cycling reboot that I haven't experienced before - I guess I've reached the voltage capabilities of my Desire. Anyway the problem is that I am (edit - was) unable to boot up into clockwork's recovery (I haven't had to do this for quite a while) I go through the usual steps of holding the power & vol-down, select recovery & press power again. It just displays the HTC logo & stays in this mode indefinitely (cue the nervous anal twitch)....

Ok I've tried it again while writing this post, BINGO it worked this time!! ???? Phew!! nothing different I've tried it a dozen times with no success then it does work - go figure... I guess it's a Clockwork issue, but it might be specific to the Desire. Next time I might have to repeat the procedure 100 times before getting it to work! Has anyone else had this problem or discovered a work-around?

Anyway cheers Richard - Thanks for your hard work & dedication!
[Desire Android Development] orthopaedeflex:
samsung widget will not work.
[Desire Android Development] ajanu:
I had the same issue when I got a bootloop from an old CircleMod. I have a feeling I was using a fakeflash version of Clockwork, as I needed to install it from rom-manager every time I flashed a new ROM.

I solved the problem in probaly the worst way. I downloaded the newest unrevoked tool. When I couldn't get it to see the phone in HBoot, I restarted and the unrevoked tool started to work while the phone was bootlooping. In heind sight this was probably the dumbest thing to do, but it worked.

To prevent this again, maybe try using the newest unrevoked to apply clockwork to your phone. Since your phone works, should be as safe as it can be. Since I did it I have had no issues with clockwork, and previously I had lots.
[Desire Android Development] Café King:
Came from OD .37 to this rom... So far no bugs and I like that this rom is getting random updates :)

So thank you, richardtrip. Please keep up the good work!

/CK
[Desire Android Development] Latty:
Sweet. Testing the 875mV minimum version, but I have a feeling it won't be stable on my Desire :p
[Desire Android Development] Ranger2350:
+1 two bsod here
[Desire Android Development] mozzek:
My installation (could help someone)

I flashed DeFRoST 5.9 zip with a full wipe, then I installed 5.9b HAVS kernel, the black bar theme (not the "Galaxy S" one) and wifi streaming-standby patch. All using the DeFRoST utility.

All seems to be working perfectly following this order. And the "IP Info" Market app says that wifi is working at 58Mb. Looks like wifi N patch has been included by default (confirmation needed here).

Regards
[Desire Android Development] bisko:
Hm, has anyone else have some strange graphics in defrost setup when downloading?

I mean this:

http://bisko.be/tmp/xda/crazy_circle.png

The circle is sooo wrong and while it spins it goes from side to side from the screen, like a super small height, ultra width and the whole thing rotating.

I wouldn't mention it, but saw it on another app and it bothered me.

Is there any fix for this?

Having it since 5.2.
[Desire Android Development] braso:
I note there is mention of the ADW launcher on the first page of this thread. I don't have ADW coming up as an option for launcher (using Home Switcher). I just get LauncherPro and the stock launcher. With the apps pack do I have to manually install apps or do they install themselves?
[Desire Android Development] Latty:
I kinda like it. It's the new design ;)
[Desire Android Development] z0mbi3:
Power button occasionally isn't registering for me and I have to press it a few times before the screen wakes up. Not every time, just some times.

No one else noticed this?
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Had this for ages. Just thought it was my power button. Knowing it may not be hasn't change anything for me though. I can live with it.
[Desire Android Development] Ranger2350:
The new low voltage kernel is not stable for me.

The 5. 3 kernel low voltage was wonderful. Any changes in The new one?
[Desire Android Development] buzmay:
For me all working great. 5.9 with 5.9b havs kernel
[Desire Android Development] kelix:
Yes! same here very very very annoying... not sure why its doing that... does it in Grooveshark too
[Desire Android Development] buzmay:
Yes 10 char
[Desire Android Development] buzmay:
I have had experienced the same problem
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
On low voltage 5.9, audio manager and post it desk widget fc. Back to 5.3a
[Desire Android Development] z0mbi3:
Glad to know its not just me with the power button.

Is there a fix for it? I'm loving this rom otherwise.
[Desire Android Development] Latty:
Darnit, not stable for me.

richardtrip, is it possible for some intermediary values, like 925 or 900 mV?
[Desire Android Development] Bart1981:
Same here. I have to press the power button twice on most occasions to activate the screen again.
[Desire Android Development] cezarL:
Umm.. actually.. I was going to ask the opposite: any chance we'll see an 800mV HAVS, like we had in the old days? :D

5.9b 875mV running smoothly here, no issues whatsoever.

As for the power button thingy.. yeah, I have it too, noticed it a long time ago, couldn't be bothered about it :)
[Desire Android Development] redlabour:
@Richard - can you please, please, please fix missing Hardware Encoding for 5.x at yxPlayer and Rockplayer? At Cyanogen, OpenDesire, LeeDroid it works.

This seems to be caused by something missing in your Kernels.

And can you please use LeeDroids Fix to give us all Apps in Market?

Regards,
[Desire Android Development] tyyau:
My search button doesn't work... any suggestions?
[Desire Android Development] justinkb:
My phone crashed on booting with the low voltage kernel, I guess my processor is from a batch of mediocre ones...
[Desire Android Development] noba72:
Hi

Sorry for my bad English.

I have very laggy menu scrolling with launcher pro. Has anybody the same problem?

Installed is the 5.9b havs 850 kernel. The same problem is with the original svs kernel.
[Desire Android Development] nitrox1:
+ 1 but only recently

Had 1 bsod on havs 850 this morning, so no alarm, but it's ok, it's the weekend :-D, but was able to reboot using power button reset. I'll Still keep testing it though.

The other one I've had which I don't know if anyone else has had, is I used to get 1Mb/s download from defrost setup, via wifi. Now it won't go above 300 Kb/s and even drops to 50 Kb/s, I put it down to traffic, but does anyone else have it?

Sent from the 25th century.
[Desire Android Development] itsfozzy:
I'm running 5.9b 875mV @998, and I've had no problems at all.

Interestingly, I did have rebooting problems with the previous low voltage version, but this one's a sweet little puppy for me!

Nice work.
[Desire Android Development] cupidstunt:
Just moved from OD and am loving this rom. Using low voltage HAVS. kernel and it's running like a dream.

Cheers Richard
[Desire Android Development] buzmay:
What are the advantages of using the 875mV kernel?
[Desire Android Development] cezarL:
lower voltages = better battery life

I got 5% drain over 7h in standby. Not bad, I'd say, considering I had gmail and exchange sync active (received several emails and a text message).
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Min voltage is lower. When idle less power used
[Desire Android Development] atomfix:
875 kernel works like a dream. Not a single bug yet. Phone has been working in 100% condition. Keep up the good work RT :D
[Desire Android Development] Marsbar:
+1 to both these.

Richard: I know I keep going on about it but how much work would be involved in building a /proc interface for user management of HAVS levels?
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Stupid me. Apologies for reporting this as a defrost kernel problem. It was a danfrance intelligence problem. Result of custom mtd layout. Resolved and running 875 for test
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Could you please explain to ke what that would give us?
[Desire Android Development] buzmay:
Thanks for the info guys, I tried to install the lower value kernel via defrsot setup but installation is aborted, how do I need to install it then?
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Maybe the zip file corrupted in download. Delete from SD and download again
[Desire Android Development] buzmay:
Where in the SD is located?
[Desire Android Development] buzmay:
OK now I fixed it was able to download it again and install it without a problem this time, as usual thanks for the help :)
[Desire Android Development] Radikaal:
is the latest RILs for newest (.48 radio, the recommended one) implemented in newer DeFroST versions?

Im trying out the new voltage havs kernel as well, still no issues after 7hours use with some benchmarks, surfing, angrybirds and idle. Going to try some rockplayer soon to see if i have same issues as someone reported before. Will be interesting to see how this kernel works on the battery life. Previous i always had noticeably better results with SvS kernels for some reason.
[Desire Android Development] Theteenystar:
Is 950mV the Voltage wich is stable for all devices ?

Greetings Karim.
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Dont think it's something in the kernel (this kernel is based on the teamdesire kernel which is the same for cyanogen as well). Rockplayer is running fine here (only tested with 720p recordings in hardware decoding mode on the latest version) but need to check if yxplayer is ok. Checked and running fine also :confused:
[Desire Android Development] rPAD:
+1

It seems i have to press it 4 times to get it on
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
It's more stable. I think since 5.x, its been stable for most
[Desire Android Development] redlabour:
Test with mp4 and DivX please.

Yes.
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Please link me a test divx that doesn't play ok
[Desire Android Development] St4hli:
Same here. Not that horrible, but a bit annoying. :)
[Desire Android Development] MisterMonitor:
Hello,

I have one bug. Im using power control widget. And when im not using interent i always turn off internet connection. But when i left connection off for a longer time, i always need to reboot my phone to turn it on, because i push turn on and nothing happens.
[Desire Android Development] heyjoe66:
sounds like issue with your operator

i'm pretty sure that you can just toggle the airplane mode instead of rebooting
[Desire Android Development] redsuns:
Same problem here. In the end I use the trackpad to wake the phone :D
[Desire Android Development] redlabour:
Everyone - you have the same Bug if you cant choose Hardwarecompatibility for a File.
[Desire Android Development] flash3d:
Hi,

New user of Defrost, have everything up and running. Did wipe, upgrade radio and partitioned sd card.

Just a few questions:

Installed kernel 5.9b HAVS 875mV, seems to be working all right.Is this kernel the most battery friendly?

I have no led notification with HandCent, how to fix/troubleshoot this?

That's all for the moment.
