DeFrost 4.2 kept restarting on me. Though that may be due to me adding the Super Circle with coloured icons to it (as that's 3.8). I also added 4.2 Wireless n and adblock so will test and report back when I have better information.

Tested with stock DeFrost 4.2 and it just BSOD (after about 20 mins) :( Will test further when I can.
[Desire Android Development] Lennyuk:
why, the stock rom works fine here? if you then flash a different kernel that is your own choice, everyone knows HAVS is experimental at the moment and even SVS is not 100% stable.
[Desire Android Development] nitrox1:
Have to say this is the buggiest defrost since I've been using.

I know I haven't done a full wipe (and will tonight), but can you bring back the stability of 3.7 or 8, have to say 4's have been troublesome.

Or the stable kernels, and at the same time have beta svs and havs, for us to choose to test, as some days are better than others to try out new things. And we all need to go to work on time.

[Desire Android Development] fossean:
Pleased to find that 4.2 with 4.2 HAVS @ 998MHz has been completely stable here for 12 hours now. Heavy usage in the time that I've been awake, and 0.5% battery usage/hour last night while unconscious.

I had lockups and reboots with both 4.1 and 4.1b HAVS kernels (I tried both HAVS and SVS @ 998MHz, SVS was OK). Seems to paint a confusing picture, many people seem to have had the opposite experience to me, and found 4.1(a) good, 4.2 bad.
[Desire Android Development] Tutti-frutti:
I run this rom since yesterday, and it fixes one of the big cons I experienced with the HTC Desire: bt audio quality! (see here)

Is it true that this is fixed by the audio mod of Pershoot?

Hope to see the rom to be stable soon, it froze during last night.

Keep up the good work! :D
[Desire Android Development] Tweak³:
Well, I had problems with HAVS v4.1b & v4.2. (Blackscreen while the device is in Standy mode.)

Now I´m running DeFrost v4.2 with the HAVS 4.1 @ 1113MHz kernel very well so far. No more blackscreens untill now.
[Desire Android Development] Tweak³:
One minute ago I suffered a blackscreen..

Seems like DeFrost v4.2 is causing the problem and not HAVS. I never had issues in DeFrost 4.1!
[Desire Android Development] Blartiartfast:
Yup. Same here. Tried many different mixtures if 4.2 and different kernels.. all ended with either black screen, or resetting to the X logo. Even tried 4.2 on its own. Gone back to 4.1 which still for Mr runs perfectly. Richard truly is the "Dutty" for android. :-)
[Desire Android Development] dw515:
Like ... getting a bootloop at the Nexus Logo? :confused:

Stupid question: Are you sure you've flashed the right ones?

I'm going to it again with mine after a wipe + fresh install

Edit:

Okay.. works... BUT make sure you've booted up for the first time before installing the mods ;)
[Desire Android Development] Lennyuk:
I have been running 4.2 (no wipe) since it dropped with stock kernel and not had any issues at all.
[Desire Android Development] m8tix:
Hm I'm running defrost 4.2 with the svs kernel of 4.1 and haven't experienced any lockups yet. I don't think that 4.2 is causing the black screen.
[Desire Android Development] svrroot:
gone back to 4.0, stable as a rock!! Waiting for fixed version...
[Desire Android Development] dampf:
just for statistics: +1

I have been running stable up to 4.1 using the "default kernel" (no additional SVS or HAVS downloads). I flashed 4.2 yesterday (again vanilla version) and had my first 2 black screens since then. SetCPU drops clock to minimum on display off (if that matters?)
[Desire Android Development] ChikkenSoop:
Add another one for black screen lockups while on standby with 4.2, gone back to 4.1 running the 1267 HAVS kernel and its steady as a rock again.
[Desire Android Development] mrsimes:
Yep, me too. 4.0 is the business.

Has anyone else noticed that on all DeFroST ROMs the soundrecorder.apk is included in the ROM, but the app never appears in the app drawer?

Si
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Same here so I am tempted to agree.
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
It's only the kernel that's not playing nice (has nothing to do with the rom itself). All kernels (also for nexus from pershoot, intersectraven, original cm-kernel) have a problem atm. Hope we can fix this asap.
[Desire Android Development] stortinget:
You assume too much.

I'm getting BSOD on all kernels, including default, after clean install.
[Desire Android Development] Lennyuk:
well then I am sure your the only one (or part of a very very small minority)
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Have you tried a 4.1 SVS kernel?
[Desire Android Development] dw515:
Hmm.. the only kernels i had BSOD's on were the havs 4.1 and 4.1a ones.

From 4.1b on the havs are working fine and the svs were always working like a charm :)
[Desire Android Development] nitrox1:
Ok, now I am just confusing myself.

Flashed vorkkernel havs, to try. Got stuck at htc logo, then flashed over defrost svs kernel, and now copilot is working again.

Really starting to think I need to do a clean wipe.

Sent from my 8-bit ZX Spectrum using semaphore.
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
Please read this thread carefully, there are a lot of people complaining that.

Further more, Richard just confirmed a kernel issue (as Kali- did in Cyanogen' places).

So, you're the today' lucky guy. ;)
[Desire Android Development] Lennyuk:
oh well, my lucky day then :)
[Desire Android Development] x01a4:
Don't know if it's still needed:

last_kmsg after last bsod, running 4.2
[Desire Android Development] Froschfinger:
I might be labelled as stupid, but could you give a quick hint on how to install a pre-4.2 kernel? The defrost setup only hosts current kernels. Once I downloaded the right kernel from Richards WWW, can I install it via ROM manager like a ROM or how should I prodeed?
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Always needed :-)
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
if you downloaded it previously, its in your SDcard\Defrostsetup. Otherwise download it and drop it onto your SD card.

From ROM manager boot into recovery and "Install zip from SD card" just like you would a radio.
[Desire Android Development] braso:
The file should be on your SD card under the 'Defrost Setup' folder. Just install using ROM manager and you'll be fine. I'm still loving 4.1. Battery life is great. 15 hours uptime with about 30 mins of calls. I'm still on 83%. I'm staying put for the moment with this ROM.
[Desire Android Development] Froschfinger:
Thanks you two, you helped me out. Will use ROM manager then to get this thing going!

BTW: Which version is it that is rock stable (there are 4.1a and 4.1b versions)?
[Desire Android Development] braso:
I'm fairly sure it is 4.1a. I didn't know there was a 4.1b. In Defrost Setup it just says 4.1, but I know the kernel update definitely worked. Running SVS 1267.
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
The most stable out there (to me) is the one named DeFroST_4.1_svs_1267Mhz.zip :)
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Not sure, on Sd mine just says DeFroST_4.1_svs_1305Mhz.zip - Like Braso, I just installed via Defrost Set up yesterday when I had upgraded to 4.1

Then I upgraded to 4.2 and flashed it back again. Not one problem yet though.
[Desire Android Development] Marsbar:
Attached this morning's BSOD from 4.1b 1113 HAVS.

I've given up and gone back to SVS; this week's been ok because I'm on holiday but I need a bit more stability in a phone during a normal week :(
[Desire Android Development] Froschfinger:
Thanks a bunch, I am currently planting it into my phonee. Will see whether these black screen lockups will be gone then ;).

For general information: the phone still seems to be on even when your screen stays black. I was able to call my own phone number and had a free-line signal, though my phone did not react or ring. Something weird ;).
[Desire Android Development] localh0rst:
In addition to the random reboot and black screen i just saw that syncing is not working (mail and twitter).

I checked my settings and they looked ok. After a nandroid restore from an old 2.6a defrost (yes, i had no time until yet to update ...) it started immediately syncing both. Sorry if this was already mentioned somewhere in the post, i only read the last 4 pages :-)

4.2 default, latest radio, full wipe.
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
New svs kernels posted

New 4.2a SVS kernels posted.

Flash with DeFroST Setup.

Hope they are a little bit more stable :-)
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Thanks Richard. Is a 1305Mhz SVS coming soon or am I ok to keep using 4.1 SVS?
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
Just the time for a nandroid trip, and I'll give them a try! :)
[Desire Android Development] slickyboy:
Hey Richard,

i cant find them in the Defrost Setup-tool.

All SVS-Kernel i clicked have a name like DeFrost_4.1_svs_xxxx.zip

Thanks

Forget about it.

I was still on 4.1;)
[Desire Android Development] jjplayground:
Black status bar coloured icons

I am on 4.2 and in the defrost setup there is no black status bar and coloured icons anymore for download.

This is not supported anymore?
[Desire Android Development] UpSpin:
http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=8164574&postcount=10816

They were remove because of issues, but dw515 fixed them, however, they're not OTA available yet.

Currently running 4.2 SVS 1190MHz.

However, had to reduce the clock to 1152MHz to get a stable OS, so let's see if it stays stable.
[Desire Android Development] jjplayground:
Cool: when they are in defrost I will install it :)
[Desire Android Development] Latty:
Tried 4.2 again with both the 4.2a SVS kernel and the 4.2 HAVS kernel, and still getting reboots... :(

Nandroiding back to 4.1 (with 4.1b HAVS)
[Desire Android Development] dixonl90:
I got two BSODs since installing 4.2. Just flashed the new kernel and will see how it goes!

Cheers!
[Desire Android Development] markrs:
Noticed the distance of the no full sleep wifi, is this due to compatibility issues (using 4.1)?
[Desire Android Development] xtcislove:
Reboots everytime and Black screen after lockscreen ...

Its kernel related?

My girlfriend hate this ... :-D

[Desire Android Development] Marsbar:
Hmm. Spoke too soon; this file is with SVS 1113. I plugged in the USB to copy the new ROM to the phone card and it didn't come up - you can even see the USB entry in the kmsg file.

Phone did respond to the three-fingered-salute though - other times it has not.
[Desire Android Development] BlackCube:
How do you guys get the phone back to working state after bsod? I can't get it back even after pulling battery..

Only one it revive by itself, else I have to flash a new rom.
[Desire Android Development] jason4656:
Can anyone tell me about google street view, i am on 4.0 and dont want to update as its very stable at the moment, ive got it how i want it and battery life is good, I have installed street view update from the defrost setup but still i cannot install from market

thanks
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
I have to say I'm very pleased with 4.2. It took a lot to make me move from 3.2 as for me it was by far the fastest. It still is, but 4.2 is much closer to the speed than everything else.

Running 4.2 with the 4.1 1305 HAVS Kernel, the battery life is so much better. Its been running for 11.25 hours, a lot of browsing, a couple of calls, sms, emails and still 64%. I'd be closer to 50% on 3.2

Wicked.
[Desire Android Development] danbst:
Tried all the kernels on 4.2 and the longest I went without BSOD was about 90 mins. More often as not though it was more frequent.

Went back to 4.0 around 4:00 today and it's back to normal now.
[Desire Android Development] golf60:
Now testing the Defrost 4.2 with the New svs 1190mhz Kernel Version 4.2a. Did a full wipe for testing and till 2hours everything is great without reboots or blackscreens. I'll see the next hours.
[Desire Android Development] dixonl90:
Changed to the suggested kernel and got a BSoD.
[Desire Android Development] Latty:
Hm, I tried the 4.1 rom with the new 4.2a SVS kernel, and so far it's stable. Maybe it's something in the rom itself that's causing the reboots
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
SVS kernels updated

New SVS kernels online.

If you had reboot/wake problems first test 998Mhz. (4.2b version).

Please don't compare the 1190Mhz with the 1305Mhz or 1267Mhz. There will never be an 1305Mhz or 1267Mhz kernel again (by any dev) because the multiplier wasn't right. So if your device was stable at 1113Mhz put your setcpu slider to that. Any higher won't work for all devices so don't report reboot problems if you set setcpu above 1113Mhz.
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
So when set cpu states that the clock speed was 1305, what was it actually clocking at?

What was wrong with the multiplier and can it not be rectified? What are the actual affects of the multiplier being incorrect?

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
I'd say it was a combination of the 2 because I've not had any issues (at all) with 4.2 running 4.1 kernels.
[Desire Android Development] jason4656:
does this mean we should reflash with different kernel even if 1267 havs has been fine?
[Desire Android Development] UpSpin:
see:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=8157654#post8157654

old (wrong displayed values) vs new (now correct display values and real internal values):

1036mhz = 1036mhz

1113mhz = 1075mhz <-- most Desire run stable at this clock

1267mhz = 1113mhz

1305mhz = 1152mhz <-- only a few selected support this
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
The only affect is displaying wrong values. It is rectified now and i dont think we can go higher without overvolt.
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
You are free to do whatever you want :-)
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Ok thank you. I guess mine was one of the few as the 1305 was better on quadrant for me than the 1267.

Guess I'll try the 1190's then.

Cheers.

Edit> just got 1778 on Quadrant (1764 on 4.1 "1305" previously) so its a bit quicker.

Ive come from an older version of defrost and i use to always use my Headphones and Phone simultaneously to talk on the phone i.e. i wouldnt have to unplug the headphones to use the phone, now however i can only hear people but people cant hear me. Is there a way of changin the behaviour of the os when headphones are plugged in?

The 4.2b SVS kernel is finally stable for me running DeFroST 4.2...

Chugging away at 1075 MHz, and it's working great :)

Looking forward to an updated HAVS kernel too!
[Desire Android Development] ShaneMacMillan:
Should I not be using the HAVS kernel? Each time I do I get a hard crash and need to pull battery. OJ + Down + Power won't reset it.

Also tried the 4.2b 1190 one and get stuck in a boot loop.

whats wrong ? did I have the wrong settings? anyone plz help me

Have the same problem, usually when the kernel is undervolted too much, my screen starts to do some very strange things.like the notifications draw at the top will open when I touch any part of the screen.

Additional: have done very clean install of 4.2, with 1100 svs kernel, and having many problems with launcher pro and reboots to boot animation, then crashes. and still after lowering mhz to 998 I get small freezes and jittery screen scrolling. Will try 998 svs kernel.

Can you please add the coloured icons to defrost setup?

Thanx man!
[Desire Android Development] LivingDeadDivision:
Hi there,

My case is totally different, since 3. 8 until 4. 2 0 problems but this night I had the bsod on stock svs 998. I didn't do wipes but this don't be a problem until now.

Late I will post the log if I can.

Anyway great work with this Rom Richard I'm sad for go away
[Desire Android Development] jason4656:
I dont see new kernels in defrost setup, only same as before? or is it included in the rom 4.2?

can i ask as people are saying they have problem with circle battery mod, if i have it installed already and dont do a wipe before updating from 4.0 to 4.2 will it cause an issue?
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
The 998Mhz 4.2b svs?
[Desire Android Development] Froschfinger:
I can confirm that the latest kernel works flawless.

Only one problem I have with the ROM - it doesn't like me to adjust ringtones and such. When I open up the menu item in settings, the program quits, so I am bound to what the device offers me, at least for calls (which is at a volume at which you cannot hear anything). Can anybody confirm this on his own device, does one even have a workaround for this?
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
1190 SVS no issues with BSOD overnight at all. Had a few LauncherPro FC's. Not sure if it is related, but its minor anyway.
[Desire Android Development] LivingDeadDivision:
Im not sure, I upgraded from defrost menu.

Anyway i just change to leedroid and while i was restoring from titanium i noticed that setcpu was on interactive mode. I was playing with setcpu and forgot to change to ondemand and if i remember right ir maybe cause some inestability problems

Sorry but i cant put the log. And Sorry again for the fake alert if its cause by setcpu.

Regards,

Ld
[Desire Android Development] Lennyuk:
As there is no interactive governor on these kernels any more it usually defaults to "powersave" but you should always make sure you "reset" setcpu when changing roms or kernels.

Open it up > press menu > device selection > auto detect (middle option)

Richard what about the updated GAPPS that just dropped?
[Desire Android Development] Last Second:
And what about the HAVS kernels?

Are they stable now?

Working fine on my device (1113Mhz HAVS). They have the same changes as the svs versions now.
[Desire Android Development] UpSpin:
Thank you for the update, currently testing

One failure:

The circle mod theme contains a white status bar, instead of a black. And the icons optimized for a black background
[Desire Android Development] maliiina:

The reboots should be fixed now. Just start with the normal svs kernel at the stock clock speed. And don't complain if you have a reboot with an overclocked kernel ;)

Thank you, great.
[Desire Android Development] El Norupz:
I have the same problem.. Since the v.4.2 was installed I've had several blackouts, where I can't do anything with the phone when it hits BSOD. The only solution is to lift the battery in the corner and attach it again :(

This is a very annoying bug, but also my first real bug on DeFroST since v. 2.5, so I guess I had it coming ;)

Now im waiting for the 4.3 to finish downloading and im hoping this will do the trick :P
[Desire Android Development] xivius:
Can I use the 4.2 circle battery mod on 4.3 ?
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
We don't know for sure if the hangs are fixed. If they are not all roms that use this kernel have a problem (even cm-kernel/intersectraven and Pershoot for nexus have problems atm). It looks that svs 998Mhz is quite stable, but i have had days without a reboot and then suddenly my device wouldn't wake.

[Desire Android Development] ulrar:
I have a problem since 4.3.

I can't find my WiFi network now. I see all the neighbors networks, but not mine.

My WiFi channel is on auto mode, so it use the less used in the building, and, in 4.2, the phone was able to see it, and to connect to it.

So it's a 4.3 issue.

I've already tried to reboot my WiFi AP, no change.

And I've tried with the WiFi n patch, but no change.

Any idea of why ?
[Desire Android Development] LivingDeadDivision:
Well, it's not my day.

After reflashing LeeDroid all ok, but about 1 hour late I had some fc's, reboot the phone and since this moment every time that try to mount the sd causes a reboot.

So... Here I'am again to try the 4.3, I hope that the setCPU causes the inestability issues, I will tell you.
