Thanks UpSpin :)

Another annoying question:

How come the LED lights green when the battery is at 90% and not 100% ? I've recalibrated the battery (wipe battery stats etc.) but that doesn't fix the problem.
[Desire Android Development] onyxogen:
Hi everybody, just wanted to share with you that I rooted my desire yesterday and flashed Defrost 4.5 with newest radio. Since that I did not have any reboot or something - everything works just fine and way better and faster than the stock rom. :D :D WOW! I hope it stays like that.

One question remains:

How much more battery life do you usually get when starting to use the HAVS kernel? I'm with the default setting and I consider switching to a more special kernel version... :confused:
[Desire Android Development] kai84m:
Yesterday I tried DeFrost 4.5a and Wifi wasnt working. When i tried to restore Nand i realized the Deforst again messed up my SD a bit - recovery started restoring but aborded after a a short time.

I reinstalled Alex V-1.6.2 after that not so nice experience. What is it with Defrost?

I would try it but it is so buggy - i have flashed dozens of Roms but i never had such trouble with any other Rom for Desire!
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Ok havs still running fine. Although not too sure about battery. I think o prefer svs for me. Had 1 random reboot on svs, fitting a similar pattern to before, just not as frequent. That was at 1190Hz though so going to flash and run a little lower
[Desire Android Development] atomfix:
I have the same problem
[Desire Android Development] UpSpin:
That's a general HTC Desire issue in my opininon. I don't know if everthing is true now:

The HTC Desire has a battery charge 'issue' with the stock ROM. You connect the charger and it charges (orange led) until it reaches 100% (green led). Then however, it discharges itself (green led), even if it is still connected to the charger, until it reaches 90% and recharges the lost capacity (green led). It discharges again, recharges, ... You don't see that this is happenig because the led stays green all the time. You only notice this if you log the battery capacity in the background or remove the charger at a unpleasant time, in the time the battery gets discharged. Then you notice that you have 100% capacity right after you remove the charger, but a few seconds/minutes later it drops to maybe 98% or maybe 95%. There's a long thread about this issue on XDA and many other forums. And HTC knows this, but doesn't solve this. Most probably it was a cost issue, simplifying the charge circuit.

Because of this issue or trick or whatever HTC thought while implementing this stupidity, I think that using an AOSP rom, the LED glows green as soon as it reaches 90%. However, AOSP don't have the recharge issue, so you don't lose capacity, you always have a 100% charged battery.

So this behaviour is normal.
[Desire Android Development] UpSpin:
It's hard to compare battery life, because battery life depends on many factors (devices turned on/off (WLAN, display, ... how long?), using 2G only or 3G, moving around (train, car) so does it have to find new towers all the time, how's the reception in your area, ...)

I currently use the HAVS kernel, haven't used it much, most time standby and got 12h/17% at the moment.

Have you done a full wipe? How large is your EXT3 partition? Have you tried to reset your SD card, too? I used OpenDesire and now DeFrost since several weeks now and haven't had a single issue with the SD card.
[Desire Android Development] kai84m:
Yes, certainly i did a full wipe! my Ext 3 is 512MB big. I completely repartitonend my SD card just days ago, after Defrost corrupted my SD Card!
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Could be that your just unlucky cause i never had any problem with sd card corruption and probably 99% of the users have never had.
[Desire Android Development] huurux:
hi

i have the latest version and i am seing one bug with a keyboard when i want to write url in the browser when the desire is in horizontal mode ..the keyboard goes crazy moving the i am unable to use it....

another bug is for the bluetooth...cant recive files:(

thanks
[Desire Android Development] asmaridis:
I was wondering, since I have an EXT3 partition (512 mb) on my SD card, and since I'm not formatting it when switching between ROMs even after Full Wipes, shouldn't that mean that the applications installed on the EXT3 partition should be available even after a full wipe? (considering A2SD+ is supported on DeFrost)

However, that is clearly not the case. I always have to use Titanium Backup to recover even those applications present on my EXT3 partition.

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] golf60:
Hello. I can't send a contact since 4.5. Please add contact-send in your Rom @richardtrip...
[Desire Android Development] atomfix:
That helps alot. I can understand why now lol
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
AFAIK, this behaviour on Sense roms is by design due to the inability to trickle charge the battery. At least this is what some sources say it is due to.

Its rubbish though.
[Desire Android Development] St4hli:
I think it also formats the ext3 partition on SD. Just read the log during the wiping-process.
[Desire Android Development] buchman:
A full wipe clears out the ext3 partition.

[Desire Android Development] heyjoe66:
and my piece bug-report on 4.5a:

- strange behavior in camera app, it doesn't apply some of settings (like sharpness/saturation/white balance...) on start running on defaults instead, i have to reclick one of that settings to force them to apply;

- many functions (still in camera) does not apply while focusing and in auto-focus mode it's focusing all the time, so it's pretty hard to zoom and so on,

and zoom seems not working on video;

- on havs kernel was experiencing random reboots, on svs seems fine for now;

- and one very old bug (maybe feature, not sure), after incoming call phone stays unlocked, but after outgoing call it lock, while otherwise behavior expected.

not sure, it may depend on if call dropped on other side, but still it's me who dialed a number

ps: please don't think that i'm complaining, we've got the best device and best developers

ps2: die, iphone, die!!!
[Desire Android Development] kai84m:
I'm considering buying a larger SD. When that happens and I have time I will try with the new one and post my experience!

But as mentioned, I never had such problems with any other Rom (AOSP or Sense).

[Desire Android Development] davdavo:
Camera zoom not working with 4.5a. But it doesn't work with OpenDesire either :D

and I think I know why, it's due to the radio and RIL. Richard, can you make camera zoom work with the recommended radio with the correct RIL?

Are proxy settings working properly on DeFrost? I remember reading often that people had hard times connecting to proxy servers on the official ROM. For example will I be able to connect to my university's proxy server and authenticate? If no, is there some 3rd party software that is capable of doing so? If yes, do I simply use the Wifi Proxy Settings?

Haven't tried 4.6 yet. But 4.5a seems to be quite stable. Got only 1 (early) weird freeze once with SVS. It didn't reboot, but it just wouldn't respond anymore to anything but the power button. As for HAVS, been running it for around 12 hours now and it's been stable. Both at stock 998 MHz.
[Desire Android Development] m0nji:
4.6 havs 1113 kernel @ 998mhz is unstable for me since i updated to 4.6 camera update and install high res gallery mod! Now I always get reboots after few minutes or immediately after enter pin. before I had no issues with havs and 4.5 or 4.6 . Absolutely curious :-( back to svs for now
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
Perhaps it's my fault, but I'm still unable to figure out how image stabilization is supposed to work. Just flashed 4.6, but no dedicated controls was found (looked into camera options, menu, Cyanogen' settings).

What am I missing?

Moreover, automatic (continuous) focus is a bit annoying since blocks the camera from shooting very often; while shooting a video, continuous focus adjustment is annoying too.

And sometimes OJ doesn't trigger the shutter, one have to rely upon the touchscreen button.

Here's a request: can camera update be made an addon for subsequent releases? I think the benefits of continuous focus (that excludes the center-based autofocus) are a bit personal to be widespread to all users whitout choice.

4.6 HAVS crashed on me =/ froze and had to pull battery to restart

A few questions...

Hi all.

I'm quite new to this ROM, having tried several Sense ROMS and find this one very fast and less a strain on the battery.

I do however have a couple of questions I can't figure out by myself.

On the camera application, it says that I can record video, but it seems to be limited to 30 minutes in high resolution mode. Is this true? Is it possible to remove this limitation? I have a 32 Gb SD card, so space is hardly an issue...

Since I upgraded Titanium Backup, it keeps crashing at startup. I can no longer launch it. The version included with the ROM worked fine however. Is there any way I can revert to the previous version? Am I the only one having this problem. I did a full wipe before installing this ROM. I also tried OpenDesire and had the same problem, so it seems linked to AOSP based ROMS.

I think that's all for now... Thanks for reading ! :)
[Desire Android Development] Marsbar:
Try clearing data for titanium under settings->applications
[Desire Android Development] nitrox1:

[Desire Android Development] pc99mk:
I'm afraid I have to agree, My battery icon doesn't animate. I was initially impressed that after an hour of idle the battery was still at 100%, but it seems stuck at that.

dw515 please get your quality version uploaded. I also care about such things.
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
OK, thanks: my thought was that 4.6 already includes camera update. Now I see the Stable Shot setting, and it's working pretty well (if set to 2 seconds).

Basically, you can press the shutter button at anytime, then stabilize the phone and your hands and it'll shot automatically after it detects 2 seconds of sufficient stability.

HAVS and setcpu; possible issue?

Edit: as per this post I've now had a HAVS crash with no setcpu

Hi

I may have got completely the wrong idea here but here's a theory.

If I run HAVS kernel with setcpu set to 998 I still get the occasional crash (black screen, phone unresponsive to power+voldown+OJ, battery pull needed). Originally we thought it was the BSOD others were describing but it now seems not.

Looking back over the last_kmsg files I've posted there seems to be a consistent issue with the i2c bus not responding.

If I disable setcpu the problem seems to stop. I had assumed that I need setcpu to get any undervoltage/underclocking (as others have posted in this thread quite authoritatitively) but checking /proc/kmsg when I disable "set on boot" in setcpu puts a lie to that. I guess I can't overclock without setcpu but I'm not too fussed about that right now.

So is it possible that setcpu is making the phone do too many cpu adjustments, which is overloading the i2c bus to the point where it fails to respond (and then gets into a fail state)?

It occurred to me that this might be the case because I realised that back in 2.4 I didn't understand that I needed to run setcpu (I thought that HAVS didn't need it, lol) and my phone was rock solid.

What's the point of setcpu if the phone will do its own PM adjustments? Just purely to enable overclocking?

Anyway, I know a couple of other people have similar symptoms to mine with HAVS kernels; suggest not running setcpu and trying for a while.

Perhaps someone with more understanding of what the various components (kernel, setcpu, HAVS) are meant to do and how they should interact could explain a bit more?
[Desire Android Development] lucero79:
Does the new radio

32.48.00.32U_5.11.05.14

Work with DeFrost 4.6?
[Desire Android Development] youlsa:
Definitely.

4.6 with SVS 998MHz runs flawlessly with new radio about 23 hours.
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
That "authoritative" guy was me. And I acted like that because many times myself and others posted clearly about lockdowns occurring without SetCPU even installed. ;)
[Desire Android Development] Marsbar:
But that's not the same thing. You're saying that "I've had a problem without setcpu". I'm saying "I have a problem with setcpu that I don't have without it". Not all flargs are blarts, and all that.

Further, if you're saying "that problem isn't caused by setcpu" that's all very well, but you gave the impression that undervoltage simply won't work without it, which isn't true.
[Desire Android Development] EViollet:
I've been running HAVS kernel for 2 days now (WITH SetCPU... ;) ) and have had absolutely no issue with it.

I would, however, be grateful if someone could point out the advantages and caveats of the different kernel versions :

HAVS : allows for overclocking and dynamically under volts the CPU ? The best for battery efficiency?

SVS 998 : static undervolting? Does this mean that the same voltage will be applied regardless of the CPU speed?

SVS 1190 : same as SVS 998 but with overclocking?

Which is the kernel that is enabled by default in the DeFrost 4.6 ROM? Is it SVS 998?

And one last question. Is is possible (as for Sense ROMs) to disable the wake up on power button, and leave only the trackball for wake up?

Sorry for the noob questions...

In advance, thanks.

Regards,
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
The point is that we're not talking about two different problems: they're the same. ;)

I'm neither a developer (herein) nor a kernel creator, I can only repost what Richard and others clearly said: SetCPU is needed in order to achieve overclock/underclock (I never spoke about undervolt, as you can see here).
