As much as i love this rom i have made some modifications :D It's a great base for making something nice. It's a kind of Galaxy S thing.

I took Defrost 2.5a.

Removed Launcher2.apk and replaced with touchwiz launcher.

Added Galaxy S framework from theme section here.

Removed music.apk and replaced with modified music.apk.

Removed sms app and replaced with dark themed cyanogen type app.

Added standard hosts file.

Added Dark Tremor a2sd.

Removed a few apps.

Looks good, have always gone for minimalist. but on richards return I am hoping for facebook to be updated,as I hear it's causing a major battery drain.But I can't seem to update it from market.
[Desire Android Development] nitrox1:
Ps you float around a lot of roms, have you decided to keep defrost as your base?
[Desire Android Development] joe2316:
Quality!

Fast stable ROM. Superb work.
[Desire Android Development] simonthor:
Seriously!

No one know how to remove wake and UNLOCK!!! on trackpad?

Sry for shouting :(
[Desire Android Development] cloud79:
Tried uninstall and reinstall !?
[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
For me, that's a big pro for this ROM :)
[Desire Android Development] alienwolf426:
not to sound like an ass or anything and please dont take offense.

but why does it matter if the trackpad wakes up the phone. it's not like you can press it by mistake, it being flush with the phone..

I don't understand how this is such a big deal?
[Desire Android Development] Xephrey:
I see that very much as a pro too.
[Desire Android Development] ephumuris:
Facebook is only on data. I had same problem so i uninstalled and then installed newest version.

Yes i used this for ages before. Then tried other roms and nothing matches up to it. I especially like OC 1267 which other roms don't have. :)
[Desire Android Development] simonthor:
Sry for sounding desperate.

I actually doesn't have anything against WAKE in trackpad. But you don't know me. I have accidently called someone because of unlock on trackpad. I locked it in the contacts and it went of in my pocket (which is made of thin cloth :rolleyes:)
[Desire Android Development] nitrox1:
I am no expert, but have you tried asking the developer of the Alex-V rom, he seems to know how to add it to a sense rom, maybe he knows how to remove it...

Ps there is another sense rom that's the same in development section.

Is it available or removed in the CM6 rom?
[Desire Android Development] nitrox1:
Thanks for that will try facebook uninstall/reinstall.

Don't mind OC, but not great fan of UV, as my phone seems to go wobbly with the lesser voltage, but I could be the one in a million.
[Desire Android Development] nitrox1:
Dragged this out of an old thread, hope it might help but also might be out of date.

It sounds like the wakeup command keymap is assigned to volume up and down, plus any of the keys on the phone as well as the standard power button.

myLock might help

No, Richard is on vacation, so expect updates when he's back
[Desire Android Development] lukian:
Defrost has been treating me well, 11 days uptime. The best I acheived on Modaco was 4 days. However I do multitask heavily and push some limits with A2SD and such. ;)

After 11 days, my audio jack and optical trackball stopped functioning, a reboot fixed this issue, but then my default launcher (Tag Home), had some issues remembering it was the default & all my user installed widgets completely disappeared.

DeFrost 2.5a Benchmarks - Quadrant: 1682 points @1113mhz & 1621 points @998mhz (performance governor). Linpack: ~38k-42.625k.

[Desire Android Development] dw515:
I guess you're using the Froyo A2SD?

Try to move your launcher and widgets/apps with widgets to the phone memory, should fix it :)

With the old A2SD+ (with ext partition on the SD card) it works without moving them to the phonememory.. (in my opinion the old one is more practical anyways)
[Desire Android Development] RobDNiir:
My audio jack is refusing to recognise anything i plug into it (which is very frustrating as my phone is my media player) EDIT: it was the icon not appearing in my subsequent attempts and its working fine now!

also after rooting and installing defrost my battery life seems to be reduced (using launcher pro, running 3 home screens and a few non-intensive widgets) there is a possibility that it was the new fb update (which ive uninstalled)

but i was wondering if anyone has experienced increased battery useage?
[Desire Android Development] bono82:
Im having trouble locating my camera pictures (using defrost 2.5a with a modaco app2sd+ card), pictures are visible in gallery, but when i check details they say "unknown location" and i cant see them when i browse the sdcard on my computer..??

This rom and opendesire rom are the best i tried till now but this one is more stable for me. Well done Richard :)

Im still having an issue though, the wifi is not working properly when i select always on. Anyone else have the same?

It seems its working properly when i choose to turn off when screen turns off.
[Desire Android Development] nitrox1:
Did you make sure that you saved the changes before exiting?
[Desire Android Development] Apostol82:
Yes i saved the settings. Now it seems to work, I have to wait for some time and test it to tell again what is going on. Thanks anyway.

Sorry, wrong thread.
[Desire Android Development] timmmah.l:
Is it just me or is bluetooth not working on 2.5a with anyone else? Computer cant detect phone and when i try send file from phone to computer it connects and starts transferring but then says its failed...... Maybe mines just wierd.
[Desire Android Development] retaliator69:
Can confirm this, widgets only working correctly while on phone memory.
[Desire Android Development] ephumuris:
Bluetooth works fine for me.

Can we have the changelog for the 2.6 defrost? Thanks
[Desire Android Development] Cuchulainx:
Is there any workaround for removing Facebook so I can install the latest version? (this rom won't let me update via the market)
[Desire Android Development] nitrox1:
Might be hiding on Richards website, but not fully released yet.

And sure it will be ready for the whole 2. 6 Rom update.
[Desire Android Development] RobDNiir:
Battery life was totally related to the fb update.

currently at 23h 30mins unplugged with 40% left with moderate useage.

Best ROM out there!
[Desire Android Development] ernell:
Found it here as always: http://xda.b42.nl/richardtrip/
[Desire Android Development] Apostol82:

Im still having problems with wifi. I tried the recommended radio for this rom but nothing changed. :(

Hi I was having WIFI drop in previous versions, but now on 2.5a, with recommended radio, and newest radio I don't have it.

I did go into settings/wireless and networking/wifi settings then hit menu, go into advance settings/ WIFi sleep policy, select never, then make sure that you hit menu and then save.

Hope it helps.

Thank you, I did that already but it didnt helped. Im wiping everything, flashing rom again now and i hope it ll be ok. I dont know what else to do.
[Desire Android Development] taylor162:
Is there anyway to install the cyanogenmod settings onto this rom?

Im guessing its not as simple as installing it, but i really miss the music settings on the lockscreen and the power widget with mobile data!
[Desire Android Development] ephumuris:
I have had a look at porting the settings etc but it is beyond my abilities. You may have to stick to Cyanogen if you really need them. I made the decision that i didn't need the extra little bits that much.
[Desire Android Development] taylor162:
Yeah tbh opendesire is the best option as it has the settings and is simaler to this rom. I really like defrost though :(
[Desire Android Development] sqx:
Is it possible to get SENSE on this rom? Because i want to overclock it to 1.2 ghz and no other rom can do that..
[Desire Android Development] ephumuris:
No sense on this rom at all. And you can't overclock sense roms yet (i think) due to the source not being available yet. Once it is people will be able to overclock it.
[Desire Android Development] kurtfimmers:
Thanks for the advice but I presume the calendar won't sync anymore then... :) I really need calendar sync so just turnig it of is no option to me...
[Desire Android Development] b3ndik:
what is the script or w/e that makes you able to not just unlock the screen but also the screenlock? I'd really apreciate if someone could find that out.

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] sjauquet:
you can use touchdown for exchange
[Desire Android Development] sqx:
In the opendesire rom there's a option in the android browser to set-up the user agent client (to android,desktop,iphone & ie 6), and a option when you zoom in the browser adjust the text for the best view (also on htc sense roms).

Can you add that to defrost? Or is there a way to fix it myself?
[Desire Android Development] beidl:
Type "about:debug" (WITHOUT http://) in the address bar and go to the browsers settings
[Desire Android Development] timmmah.l:
Hmm seems like I'm the only one having trouble with bluetooth.

Ok how about this one, has anyone tried to plug the headphones in and listen to music and only have the phone play through the rear speaker? I can't get it to play through the headphones.

Tried the original headphones, then two other sets and just continues playing through back speaker.......
[Desire Android Development] Darkzen15:
quick noobie question guys, which voltage is better for battery life, a lower voltage or a higher one? if i want to save battery life, should i go on to 998Mhz or 1267Mhz? I'm assuming the lower one saves more battery right?

and also on defrost 2.5a, does anyone have the problem where the wifi goes to sleep and never comes back on? on mine, it goes to sleep and when i check in settings, it says its disabled. i have set sleep to "on screen off"
[Desire Android Development] scotti2427:
Calendar Widgets

Not strictly a Defrost issue but am using Defrost and would LOVE a calendar widget thats as close to the HTC Sense one as possible.

Does anyone else using Defrost have any suggestions - or is it possible to use the HTC Sense .apk on this ROM?

Scotti
[Desire Android Development] mad_tom:
try this:

stop music.

put phone in standby.

plug headphones.

wake it up.

start music.

listen music ;-)

works for me in my car via aux
[Desire Android Development] mattharris26:
There are Sense style widgets with LauncherPro Plus (paid version). This is actually a launcher/home replacement app but includes some Sense style widgets. It is well worth getting (and paying for) just for the Launcher alone.

Alternatively there is Android Agenda Widget.
[Desire Android Development] timmmah.l:
Mad_Tom, GENIUS! It worked! however i had to lock the phone a couple of times to get it to start playing from the rear speaker once I unplugged the headphones.

Wierd. BUT none the less its working! Thankyou very much!
[Desire Android Development] chrism_scotland:
How are people finding battery life with 2.5a? I've upgraded from 2.0 and finding my battery draining very very quickly.
[Desire Android Development] drako86:
Bat new version of this rom ???
[Desire Android Development] ernell:
I had drain issues at first, battery drained empty from morning to midnight (setcpu didnt do much difference). I did a few simple changes, and now it lasts for about 72 hours (with just a few calls, some browsing, sync alsways on).

Changes i did:

Turn off auto screenlight, install non adblocking hosts file, 1267 kernel.

I dont know what made the big difference, but I was pretty surprised.
[Desire Android Development] will_middleton:
Hi, whats is the non adblocking hosts file and where do I find it pleasE?
[Desire Android Development] ernell:
In defrost setup app.
[Desire Android Development] will_middleton:
Is this not something I can do with 2.4d ??

I haven't the spare time to install 2.5a yet !!!
[Desire Android Development] timmmah.l:
My battery has been a bit all over the place with 2.5a, a couple of nights ago, between 1230am and 7 am whilst I was sleeping the battery only dropped 4%, however last night somewhere between 11pm and 7:30am it dropped from 16% to completely empty.

Only thing I thought I changed was added the stock music widget to a page.......
[Desire Android Development] Milamber:
This seems like a popular ROM, I'm going to give it a crack :)

EDIT: Crap, this isn't a sense ROM!!
[Desire Android Development] dw515:
Euhm... it takes like 5 minutes to update the rom :confused:

Aaaanyways.. i've used my spare time to get you the standard-hosts-file from my phone ;)

flash via recovery .. etc etc..

edit:

aaah.. and i've just remembered.. you can get it from here too -> http://xda.b42.nl/richardtrip/standard-etc-hosts-signed.zip

.. anyways .. too late ;b

I've been following the desire rooting from the beginning, but because I wanted to wait and see how people got on with it, I never got round to rooting before people started reporting the usb bricking issue.

I decided not to root because of this, but as soon as the usb fix came out I went for it, I used the windows method r5 from Modaco, using my windows xp netbook and it went perfectly. Then I had to try out DeFroST to see how Froyo was to use and i've been very happy with it.

I'd say go for it, at the end of the day you are taking a risk, but not a significant one in my opinion. I've not seen any reports of people permanently bricking there phone. (only the USB debug issue which is recoverable)
