Hi Richard,

Fantastic ROM, really fast, stable and brightness etc all working as should.

Two bugs though, one major:

Network location not working (enabled option in settings to allow network location but Google mobile doesn't pick up and neither does weather)

Facebook link in contacts takes you to your profile, and not contacts

I wiped everything before install:

Factory reset/data wipe

Wiped cache

Wiped Dalvick Cache

Installed ROM

Wiped reset/data

Installed HAV 800mV Kernel

Can you replicate this bug?

Thanks

Mark

Anyone else still suffering from slow read/write speeds to memory card once mounted?

Im using a Class 6 16gb, but i get nothing over 2mb/s write?
[Desire Android Development] Gawain1986:
I'm on the 925mV HAVS kernel and I'm having the network location issues too.

I did enable it in the settings.

Edit: using 2.4b after a full wipe.
[Desire Android Development] Mekrel:
Ok, I've reflashed after a wipe - but without flashing the HAVS 800mV kernel and the network location issue is still there.

Bad idea to wipe after flashing the ROM, I wondered why the Defrost and updated Chrometophone wasn't there :p
[Desire Android Development] dw515:
No location issue here.. probably because i haven't wiped since the install of 2.3

yup .. around 1,5mb/s max. for usb file transfer here.
[Desire Android Development] larbke666:
Could you include HTC widgets later on?
[Desire Android Development] webrosc:
Cheers for that :)
[Desire Android Development] bogstandard:
It aint gonna happen. HTC widgets = HTC Sense.

--------------------------------------------------------------

Great ROM Richard - cheers!
[Desire Android Development] hshah:
My battery life is still abismal. I am running 2.4b with 950mV kernel. I tried the 800mV version and I found that was worse for me.

Can someone please look at my apps and see if any one of them could be leeching the battery:

[Desire Android Development] spamoi:
@richard: can you add this in next release please ?

# fm tuner

# add more options to camera app (resolution, fps, sound quality (8khz is too bad))

Thank you ;)
[Desire Android Development] spamoi:
Try the app 'systemPanel' to check wich app take the power.
[Desire Android Development] DrDee:
Twice now when applying a kernel update over my install (this time it was 2.4 over a full 2.0g) it disables my wifi and it wont re-enable, just gives an error.

Anyone else encountered this.
[Desire Android Development] acejacksooted:
Yes, I've noticed this, transfer speed went down considerably afterI changed to this rom. I hope it gets fixed, but its a small prize to pay for a great rom...
[Desire Android Development] fakts13:
try launcher pro, i've never had good luck w/ battery life with any launcher app on defrost roms, kills battery and makes the phone hot (at least defrost2.3 and adwlauncher)
[Desire Android Development] hshah:
I am using Launcher Pro Plus :)
[Desire Android Development] zaphyr:
My WiFi N router reports a link speed of ~25 Mbps over 802.11n while the phone says 65 Mbps. Weird stuff, but not that important to me since I rarely use the phone to download large files.

Btw, I'm using v 1.4a
[Desire Android Development] cgrec92:
2.4c released already

you're really on it today arent you ;)

keep up the amazing work! :D
[Desire Android Development] robbiekhan:
Excellent stuff on the updates but I really wish that Facebook wasn't put in /system/apps because I have to ADB to remove it every time just to put on the transparent widget version back on!
[Desire Android Development] BrainMcFly:
is it the issue, that the wifi-sleep-policie was ignored?
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
There's a thread somewhere here on xda about that. Only official Sense roms have high transfer speed (it's something in the kernel i guess). Can't change anything :(
[Desire Android Development] xivius:
2.4c already :)

Is there no kernel update, I only see the full rom ?
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Sorry, but if you put it in the BUG Tracker i maybe think about that next time :p
[Desire Android Development] gangman:
First of all great job with updating. Much appreciated.

Now one question. In my original Sense 2.1 it was possible to choose between 3G only, GSM only or automatic mode in the network settings (i.e. 3 different modes). In DeFroST essentially I can only choose GSM (2G) or automatic but no option for 3G/UMTS only. Is there no way to make it? I'm sure I'm not the only one who would find this extremely useful.
[Desire Android Development] blabla189:
Can i use the 2.4 HAVS Kernel (800 mvh) with the new version (2.4c) ?
[Desire Android Development] Sashtheflash:
type *#*#info#*#* and there u can change it.. info stands for the numbers :4636

u can change it in the first point phone info..scroll down and u see prefered network type
[Desire Android Development] :
Idk if it has been fixed in 2.4b/c, but battery usage issues seem to be back in 2.4a. Display (at 20%) took 88% of battery usage.

[Desire Android Development] drako86:
fitting the 2.4 and the Kermel to 800mV, using the phone like before, I can arriavare to charge two days ... THANK YOU FOR THIS ROM!!

Sent from my HTC Desire :-)
[Desire Android Development] luckst0r:
Full wipe and applied 2.4c (nothing restored, clean) and I'm still having wifi issues.

Works fine when it's first switched on. Leave the phone idle for a while, come back and the icon is there, says it connected, but noone is home. Still have to disable/enable to get it going again.

Is it safe to assume this problem will remain until an official HTC 2.2 ROM comes out?
[Desire Android Development] b3ndik:
thx for adding norwegian language: D
[Desire Android Development] sjauquet:
not in my case, altrough i didn't do a full wipe but upgrading from 2.4a (where I've done a full wipe)

When I push the power button, the phone immediately stops responding to pings. :mad:
[Desire Android Development] blabla189:
Got The Same issues with wifi. Says that IT is connected, but IT is Not. So i must always reconnect.

[Desire Android Development] hshah:
I agree, WiFi has not been fixed :(
[Desire Android Development] cezarL:
Wifi sleep issue still present for me in 2.4c as well :(

However, no problems determining location via wifi in Maps or Weather...
[Desire Android Development] litzi:
does anyone have the problem of a non-rotating display too.. its set on automatic but it doesnt rotate whether in browser nor in sms/msm or something..
[Desire Android Development] Sultan1993:

i did set "never" in wifi advanced settings AND saved before exit
[Desire Android Development] MShot:
Can anyone confirm battery drain issues?

overnight:

2.3 (HAVS 800mV, flightmode): from 99% to 98% in 6,5 h

2.4b (HAVS 800mV, flightmode): from 57% to 22% in 7,0 h
[Desire Android Development] litzi:
thx... reboot sometimes helps ;)
[Desire Android Development] wingnutta:
I recently went to Defrost 2.4a with no problems and i am loving it! - However in the space of 2 days it is now at 2.4c. I have spent ages restoring apps, pics, sounds etc... do i have to do a full wipe again or can i just go over the top????
[Desire Android Development] cezarL:
No battery drain here..

2.4a with HAVS 925mV, 2G (EDGE), sync off (hourly weather and news updates on) - lost 4% over 8 hours last night :)
[Desire Android Development] Schaefer:
Titanium back-up is the key. Make a full backup of system + all apps&data

Flash ROM with wipe

Restore Titanium back-up

After that the only thing I have to do is widgets (they are visible but just wont work) and e-mail accounts.
[Desire Android Development] slybreiz:
720p camera is provided for it?
[Desire Android Development] Giland:
Nope , you need Sens for it to work.
[Desire Android Development] wingnutta:
Did that fine before and although it works it took ages!.. Was hoping i wouldnt have to.. Appreciate the quick reply though. :)
[Desire Android Development] ph0rce:
I love the beach wallpaper included in this rom, any chance of a link to the original image or could someone tell where to look inside the zip file?

Cheers.
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
I wasn't talking about the wifi sleep policy. there was another problem. wifi disconnected when the screen was on. There's a wifi sleep fix now for the wifi driver (2.6.34 kernel) and i'm testing it on the 2.6.32 kernel.
[Desire Android Development] paprkut:
Decent rom but doea anyone else think the picture camera quality is low? The viewfinder itself isn't as good as other froyo roms.
[Desire Android Development] nesquix:
yes i really have the same big drain problem :(, with no widget.
[Desire Android Development] sjauquet:
agree, seems when set to auto brightness
[Desire Android Development] paprkut:
Also auto focus doesn't seem to work until I take a picture? There's some roms that autofocus when you move the phone or you can tap to focus on a particular area. Is that meant to be in this rom or not?
[Desire Android Development] sjauquet:
Crossing my fingers, I really dont like sense rom but untill now they are the only ones without this annoying bug

Thanks !!
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
What's the exact issue?
[Desire Android Development] zuNN:
i think the drain problem is relative to auto brightness, try to disable it; for me it's working
[Desire Android Development] pranavd1980:
Any clue on wifi issue......it started with me since 2.4a...

i have tried OD 2.3 & SETROM 4.0 after that......

Still having wifi sleep issue......it get connected but...not downloading anything...(Tried 2-3 diff wifi spots...FYI)

did something went wrong with my desire....or its a general issue....

Please Help....
[Desire Android Development] Daelyn:
Had this issue temporary myself with 2.2c / 1267 UVOC. Found it weird because I had absolutely no battery drain day before. Rebooted the phone, problem disappeared. Strange.
[Desire Android Development] acejacksooted:
facebook sync in order (contact pictures) ?
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Version 2.4d:

Fixed Facebook sync (Thanks to AdamG)

Fixed networklocation

Fixed WiFi sleep

Fixed Twitter
[Desire Android Development] Giland:
Thanks a lot , downloading it now :)
[Desire Android Development] Z2k3:
For some reasons, Auto Brightness burns my battery life like crazy (around 5% or so in half an hour of doing nothing). Manual brightness works better, discharged since 12.01pm, changed to manual at 12.30pm at 90%, battery at 58% now at 7.45pm (32% in ~7hrs).
[Desire Android Development] discohero11:
What is the best/simplest way to remove QuickOffice, Twitter, CarHome, HTC_IME etc from the ROM? Are there any side effects I should be aware of? I don't you any of the above at all and could use a bit more space w/ resorting to APPS2SD.

Thanks.
[Desire Android Development] dave7802:
When reporting issues, please can you say what version you are on.
[Desire Android Development] Giland:
You can remove quick office this way :

Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications

Then select uninstall on it.

To remove the other applications i think you have to modify the .zip file before you flash it.
[Desire Android Development] dave7802:
You could try and remove them from the Zip file you download?

there located in \data\app

I dont know if its that simple, i will try later, as i need to update the rom when i get a chance
[Desire Android Development] xivius:
Great, a new version! But is 2.4d only available as a full ROM? No kernel update?
[Desire Android Development] dubed1505:
Hi,

I am in the 2.4c and there is something strange,

When the screen wake up, a lot of applications are killed. It wasn't the case in 2.1.

[cannot put a link so add h t t p : / / before]

pastebin.com/u2b7Upp8
[Desire Android Development] discohero11:
Ok, will try removing the apks from the zip and see how that goes.

Any reason why some apks are name-1.apk?
[Desire Android Development] MrZaphod:
I've removed files from the zip file before. But you have to manually reboot into recovery from rom manager, select 'install .zip from sdcard' and 'toggle signature verification' before selecting your modified zip file.
[Desire Android Development] desire.:
I have defrost 2.3, and i put the phone to charge over the night, but now it says charging 95%, it has been charged the whole night and it still says 95%
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
All kernel updates still work.
[Desire Android Development] Lahroon:
WiFi actually works!!

I log the PC and phone into the same IRC chat and usually the phone drops within 2 mins of standby, not any more. Responds to pings and everything. 38:E7 mac too!

Snaps for Richard! :D
[Desire Android Development] BrainMcFly:
since the high-frequency-update-rate of this rom i ask me, how many times can i flash a rom without damage...?
[Desire Android Development] robbiekhan:
Eleventy Million.

Billion.
[Desire Android Development] xivius:
I dont see a 2.4d version of the kernel, only 2.4?

THAT is the right kernel!!!

Removed QuickOffice, LiveWPs, Twitter, CarHome, HTC_IME etc but I am still at 20ish MB free with a few apps installed. I usually have 80 Mb free with MDC R5 WIP with same apps and some HTC fluff. Why could that be?
[Desire Android Development] dubed1505:

[Desire Android Development] Dunbad:
Just to ask what is the WiFi N node patch, and how to install. I'm currently doing a manual flash of Rom followed by a wipe as my initial install did not fix location services. Will Rom manager include that WiFi patch?

thanks

I 2nd this. Using 925mV HAVS kernel
[Desire Android Development] sjauquet:
fully agreeee !!!!

I have found one issue. If u reebot The phone. Ur OC is Set to default. I have installed the 1267 MHz Kernel. After a reebot i must Set this ftequenzy in setCPU again from 998 to 1267.
[Desire Android Development] STONEMC:
Can I use the kernels with other Froyo-ROMs? Or do I need a special one for each custom ROM?
[Desire Android Development] xivius:
@Richard:

I installed the kernel:

DeFroST 2.4 HAVS max 998MHz 925mV (max 998MHz)

But is still shows 2.4a, not 2.4d ... is that correct ?
[Desire Android Development] willexmen:
Can you use older radio for defrost 2.4d?
[Desire Android Development] Curfish:
You need to install

DeFroST 2.4d FRF91 Full Rom (HAVS max 998MHz 925mV
[Desire Android Development] xivius:
but that is a full rom .... so I have to install everything again ?
[Desire Android Development] Curfish:
No, if your coming from 2.4 a b or c you should be fine installing with no wipe
[Desire Android Development] georgemv:
Greek language support for LatinIME

Hi Richard,

Since DeFroST is now an AOSP ROM, I suggest you accept patches :)

I attach a patch that adds Greek language support to the default Android keyboard.

I wrote it this morning, have been running that for half a day and seems OK.

Could you please consider adding that to the next version of DeFroST?
[Desire Android Development] bedeabc:
This is my first ROM since rooting and I'm very pleased with DeFroST 2.4d so far.

The first major problem that I've run into is that I can't sign in with Twitter because there is no submit button. Also, it says installation unsuccessful when I try to update Twitter.

EDIT: Uninstalled and reinstalled twitter and added account via accounts and sync and all is well :)
[Desire Android Development] desire.:
Help me someone???
[Desire Android Development] willexmen:
Hi!

If a want to install a faster kernel. Do i install the full rom first and then the kernel that id like to use, right?
[Desire Android Development] webrosc:
Yeah thats what i was told

Does anyone else know how to check or where it says what the current kernal speed/voltage is?
[Desire Android Development] discohero11:
Yes. Exactly.
[Desire Android Development] BrainMcFly:
after update to 2.4d Network-Based Loclisation did not work.

Now i started recovery, reset to factory and wiped everithing.

Installed 2.4d, rebootet, then reinstall everithing with titanium backup. Now Localization works perfect. Recovery again, installed blackbar colored, wifi-n patch and 800mV kernel, rebooted and everything works fine again.

Conclusion: On every strange Problem a full wipe is recommended
[Desire Android Development] stephen21:
got the same problem connecting to google since 2.4,...

APN seems to be correct,...

I did a wipe, then flashed the rom,...

I also got the latest radio,...

But nothing worked,...

wiped again,... same problem,...

any idea?
[Desire Android Development] BrainMcFly:
also my phone cant connect to google with input my googlemaiadress and password in the startup-assistant (it hangs while synchronizing, it yust doing nothing for 20 minutes, so i hit cancel). But i have cancelled this, because i restored everything with titanium backup. Also my googleaccount settings are restored and i can login with all services now.
[Desire Android Development] atomfix:

NEW FULL ROM, OPTION TO FLASH. WIPE or NO WIPE?

Hey DeFrost,

I have my phone rooted! And its great using your custom rom (Defrost 2.4c)!. My problem is, if everytime you have patch.

Do i (we) need to WIPE the system/cache for your Full ROM?

Cause its kinda hard for me to patch everyday, when you have every other day patches.

Im going to wipe and flash the full rom,and "install again my apps." :(

Do you have a link of downloads, where you have the files/patches or the new DELTA (changes) version, where there's no need to wipe?

Thanks. It would be a great help for me and others also,who love your ROM. :)

Keep it up the good work! :)

Regards,

Ravenchad :D
[Desire Android Development] sfjuocekr:
You can use Titanium Backup to restore applications and settings, the only drawback is that you have to press the "Install" and "Done" buttons over and over. With 30-40 apps/games thats quite a burden.
[Desire Android Development] bogstandard:
Donate to the developer and its automatic ;)
[Desire Android Development] willexmen:
I get installation abort when trying to install Defrost 2.4d Full ROM, i flashed in Rom manager and wiped cache + factory reset.

What went wrong?

Any specific installation progress i need to do?
[Desire Android Development] ravenchad:
Yes, thats my problem, im even using Titanium Backup, as you said.it is still a burden :(

Hope DeFrost, can post a link where the only patches will be downloaded.

If you get the donate version from Titanium Backup you don't have to confirm every app restore (its automatic). I think it's really worth it.
