BetterKeyboad won't install

:eek: i was using defrost since 1.6. after 1.7 and 1.8. with no problem with BetterKeyboard.

This morning i' have updated my desire on 2.0....and what a surprise BetterKeyboard won't install.

Swype beta is ok, other apps (GOTTODO, UPVISE,WORDPRESS,etc...) are also ok , but BetterKeyboard won't install !

Download is ok, but when i want to enable the Keyboard, it doen'st appear on my keyboard parameters !

When i look in application, it's running, but when i search the icon, it don't appear on my desktop !

Is anybody have an idea to solve this issue ?

Thanks for the team for that good ROM !

EDIT du 07/09/2010 :

After a lot of re-installation , the sofware is here in parameters...but with the name "Android keybord"..now, i've two lines with the same name...the second is better keyboard !

I've tested it , and it runs !

Is there any way we can "user agent" in the stock browser. At the minute we have flash but some pages just take you to the mobile site.

I have used other browser but there not that good.

Cheers Ross

Can i use old app2sd+ in this. rom? and please tell me how i can do
[Desire Android Development] nvivas:
Status update:

Been using 2.0 since the first hour and so far all is good but one thing.

Battery, wich was never very good, is now worse.

Unplugged the phone 3 hours ago and its already on 70%.

On 1.8 it would last 24 with normal usage.

My config is the same has always:

2 email accounts;

1 twitter;

1 Facebook;

Using Launcher Pro.

Wondering if this could be somewhat app related?!(altough i use the same apps that in 1.8) or is it something else.

Battery reporting 68% usage. Don't know if that is accurate. To be honest i must say it can't be. Only checked mails a couple of times and watched a small youtube video.

Wondering if something can be done to improve this? Or maybe to try and track the cause??

Any pointers Richard??

Help would be much appreciated as i use this phone mostly to work.

Once again, thanks for a great job!
[Desire Android Development] Qliratu:
Just create a Fat16 partition and a ext3 partition on your SD-Card (linux)

Then your done.. eazy way download AM recovery put it in the root of your SD.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=689778&highlight=recovery

http://www.multiupload.com/61STV8CPHL <-- fakeflash version

Boot the recovery (voldown+power --> recovery --> volup+power --> aply update.zip) and select partition --> something else dunno the name partition sd i believe. 0mb flash 512mb ext2 rest fat16

after that convert ext2 --> ext3

DeFrost uses the ext3 partition for saving app (only apps installed using market) not the one's already on the rom

There is a battery % mod on the first page (stock statusbar).

White Noise and Echo Fixed???? I am back!!! :-)))))
[Desire Android Development] chrissyg123:
I'm also losing about 5-7% an hour just on standby, no additional apps running or syncing.

using the uvoc 1267 kernel
[Desire Android Development] Qliratu:
Nice, thnx again Richard
[Desire Android Development] dave_uk:
Yup - for some reason, this new radio/ROM combo is murdering the battery life :eek:
[Desire Android Development] Qliratu:
I dont know what you guys had for battery life but whit normal use my desire last a day (MAX)

even whit the stock rom it uses up a lot of battery.

I do use ALLOT of pushmail/calendar sync etc.. nowday's every smartphone need's to be charged daily
[Desire Android Development] Vorbeth:
The display although going black, is not fully going to sleep, Just done a quick test, unplugged phone put phone to sleep, waited 30 minutes, woke phone and looked at battery usage, still showing Display as the main drain of power, even though it was off.

I've attached a grab from 2.1-update1 and as you can see even after 3 hours of use the display is not the main drain on the power.
[Desire Android Development] sangreal:
This is one of the better ROMs with the new radio. Battery life great compared to others tried. OCUV kernel with setcpu installed, really happy with it.
[Desire Android Development] letier:
My issues:

Twitter contacts sync doesn't work.

High battery usage display.

Keyboard click vibration doesn't work.

Auto brightness doesn't work
[Desire Android Development] peewster:
Is it possible to merge those 2 for ultimate pleasure :)
[Desire Android Development] Vorbeth:
@richardtrip

Do you think pushing the gralloc.qsd8k.so from DJDroid to DeFrost could possibly help with the display?

I'll try it later if I have time, though I do think it's a lib causing the display issue.
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Twitter sync is working fine here (did you set "All Contacts" under twitter in the Display options of the Phone program?)

Battery usage test with uvonly or stock or use setcpu.

Auto brightness is not perfect but works.

Keyboard vibration is working fine here.
[Desire Android Development] Vorbeth:
I'm doing all my tests with stock, no tweaks at all, this problem really needs sorting that way rather than using hacks & mods to help ignore the problem.
[Desire Android Development] smarti13:
Light sensor

is a bit to dark :-(

could you do something ?

GREAT otherwise
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
I'm not ignoring the problem. I only say that if you're using uvoc version you should use setcpu (not with stock or uvonly). You are not using uvoc.
[Desire Android Development] Vorbeth:
I know, what I was aiming at is a lot of user are using uv or uvoc and saying battery usage is great.
[Desire Android Development] Qliratu:
I follow this thread for quite a while now, and a couple things that i find very innoying.

Why are people just keep asking/complaining about battery life? does it ever ocur to u that when u port a rom from a completely different device (yeah the nexus one is different from the desire) that u cant expect it to work flawless?

The developers did a great job porting camera/data/mic/led/etc/etc.. if u find the battery life not acceptable for you why dont u go back to the stock rom? and wait for the official release of HTC?

support developers in theire creativitie stop complaining about these things,.. we got a full functioning rom imho that was the goal of this post.
[Desire Android Development] Egan:
Richard, don't you forget to put 2.0 on ROM Manager? ;)
[Desire Android Development] Vorbeth:
I don't expect a port to be perfect, however given that the N1 and Desire do share the same display, power use result's should be similar, however they are not, leading to the conclusion something is not working correctly.

Even the AOSP build's have this bug, and if one dev can fix it then, everyone can benefit.
[Desire Android Development] Qliratu:
U are right about that, but make a simple search trough the thread and count the workd battery usage.. i woud be very demotivated to read that every time on every single page.

battery life aint so good as from the stock rom, but are u very suprised to put a 1ghz phone to the charger every night? iam not...
[Desire Android Development] DashingGentleman:
No one is expecting miracles. But the fact of the matter is that it is possible for the Desire to drain <1% battery per hour when idle. I have had that kind of usage with previous versions of Defrost. If people are getting abnormal battery drain and post details of their setup + usage, the info can be useful for the ROM developers to troubleshoot the issue. Pretending an issue doesn't exist isn't really productive.
[Desire Android Development] ephumuris:
Twitter contact sync works.

How about people ignore the display numbers and just go on battery life? Mine lasts as long as stock sense rom and I'm using uvoc 1.2.

Keyboard vibrate is disabled by default. Try going to keyboard settings and enable...oh look it does work.

Auto brightness works for me however the same as most roms it doesn't go dimmer until you turn display off and on again!

These kind of posts are the exact thing that is wrong with these forums and I wonder how Richard can continue with such people using his rom. People need to learn to help themselves.
[Desire Android Development] dave_uk:
Sorry, this is just moronic. Yes, some people just ***** and moan but the majority of the posts are constructive feedback to try and help the dev identify problems with the ROM (or just to praise things that work great) so that things will work better for everyone's benefit.

If we all just said what was fantastic and ignored the little things that could be improved, the community would get nowhere.

We all know that this is a port....blah blah blah....and that the devs give of their time for free....blah blah blah....and are appropriately impressed and grateful. Your platitudes merely serve to patronise rather than inform.
[Desire Android Development] dave_uk:
Just for reference, my problem also seems to be display eating up a disproportionate amount of battery while allegedly asleep but I am using UVOC and SetCPU. This problem has happened since switching from 1.8 to 2.0 and just to confirm, I have lowered my OC settings to what I had previously on 1.8 but am still getting inferior battery life.
[Desire Android Development] cosmic76:
hi all, titanium backup don't restore my backup (i come from opendesire)

And market restore the application automatically when i connect to dataconnection :confused::confused::confused:

App2sd don't work form me :( :mad:
[Desire Android Development] letier:
No need to be sarcastic. No need to ignore bugs.

I disabled and reenabled keyboard vibration. Now it works.

Auto brightness now works after i tinkered with an alternate settings app.

What stays is a non working Twitter contact sync. When i sync an exclamation mark and some message appear for some milliseconds. Its to fast to read. The contacts do not show up in any list.

The high display battery usage is possibly connected to the battery usage, so why ignore this?
[Desire Android Development] Sheffield Tunes:
What version of SetCPU do i need to use with the 2.0 rom?
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
4 things changed since 1.8:

1. Radio

2. Firmware (needed for echo/white noise).

3. kernel (compiled last version).

4. libOmx* for video encoding for camera

oh, and b.t.w. i hope no1 is running 2.0 (without a) because the stock kernel was not ok.

[Desire Android Development] EddyOS:
Richard, any chance of cooking the black bar mod into the ROM from the start? Or does it boot loop like it did before? In work so can't try it myself otherwise I would :D

Also, are the LEDs behaving as they should yet (ala stock Desire)?
[Desire Android Development] hemartin:
Hi Richard, thanks for your great work. I just wanted to ask you if you could look at the following items:

Make wake on any button optional

Make colorful setting icons optional

LED is flashing purple on notifications

Double tab zooming in stock browser is slow

Hope you don't mind looking into these issues.

Thanks a lot,

Martin
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Not everyone likes the black bar. Leds you can test with LED Color Tester from market.
[Desire Android Development] Nekromantik:
battery life seems to be quite bad on 2.0 with new radio.

Not had DJ Droid ROM long enough so cant say if its the Radio or the ROM.
[Desire Android Development] EddyOS:
So with that app I can make the LEDs work as a stock Desire would (e.g. orange charging, green fully charged, green for notifications, etc)?
[Desire Android Development] mrcol99:
Wifi still dropping out

Can anyone help? I have followed the guide exactly. Wiped then installed the new Radio then the 2.0 Rom

Please help!!!

sound level issue

hi there,this morning my alarm played different sound i was set..and very,very quite..same very low level of music player too...restart fixed it...but it was happend again today...previouse rom with same applications (MoDaco custom ROM frf 91) was without that issue ..
[Desire Android Development] kurda08:
Hi there!

Thanx for a very work. I still get display to drain the Batteri, 72%!! is it a bug?
[Desire Android Development] darkmaterial:
I've been using this ROM for a while now and upgrading with every new release and have had very few problems.

I personally find that the battery life is great compared to the stock ROM and have had no problems with it running down too quickly. Perhaps my expectations are just lower.

The only problem I've found is that the trackball stops working after the phone has been one for a while. Doing a reboot, however brings it back to life.

Great ROM and looking forward to future released.
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
You can only test the leds with that app.
[Desire Android Development] Café King:
@richardtrip:

How do you install the Black StatusBar for 2.0? Would like that instead of the white one.

Excellent rom btw :)

/CK
[Desire Android Development] LBTaylor1984:
not feeling the coloured menus in browser, sms, etc. grey scale please :D

actually preferred settings in greyscale too.

ignore that didn't realise they were in the black status bar zip
[Desire Android Development] LBTaylor1984:
just use rom manager, and tell it to install the zip it will overwrite the original :D
[Desire Android Development] Café King:
And no apps or anything will be changed/deleted? The phone will stay exactly the same? :)

I assume it's the same way to change battery icon?
[Desire Android Development] sangreal:
@richardtrip..only issue I have at moment is VPN access, no matter what I do in this ROM it wont connect.

Is this a known bug and can anyone else confirm this as an issue?

Cheers

google talk help

Hi great rom. I have been chatting to a friend on talk he says when im not using the phone im signed out, i notice when i go to use talk it signs me in, i thought you stay login all the time while your phone is on, as anyone notice this is this normal or a rom bug

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] le3ky:
Make sure you read the post above yours then check if it still occurs
[Desire Android Development] alienwolf426:
richard is it possible for you to set the default install location to 2 in the rom itself, so we don't have to run adb pm setInstallLocation 2?

reason i ask is that a lot of times I'm installing your rom on the go and don't have access to a computer or don't have the cable with me.

Cheers,
[Desire Android Development] cosmic76:
Hi richard is it possible have the percentage in cirlce battery?
[Desire Android Development] mortenaasnes:
You can do the pm command directly on the phone without a computer if you install a terminal app.
[Desire Android Development] mrcol99:
Sorry forgot to say that I had already read through this thread and had seen that possible fix and tried it. It did not work unfortunately. Any other ideas?
[Desire Android Development] mercianary:
orange locked users beware!!

first of, thanks for the rom, i've been using exclucively since about 0.4 :)

my phone is locked to orange, so when i flashed the radio it messed up the simlock and locked my phone to no network. if you have done the same flash the 32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11 radio to fix.

to cut a long story short, if you are locked to orange do not flash the radio or defrost 2.0. Flashing radio will break the sim lock flashing defrost 2.0 without the radio will break camcorder.

the latest defrost rom users locked to orange can use is 1.8

this error is not specific to this rom, its any radio newer than 32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11, it's oranges fault and has been causing problems for ages, its just up till now no one "had to" update thier radio.

to richardtrip,

can you put some sort of warning in the first post for orange locked users so they dont flash the radio and lock thier phone.

also, can you put the link to 1.8 back up so us orange locked users can still use your great rom.

thanks.
[Desire Android Development] Daley87:
Was wondering if this radio was gonna mess up the simlock, cheers for the confirmation. My mrs has an orange locked desire, might get it unlocked to avoid this radio issue.
[Desire Android Development] le3ky:
The easiest way is to open the spare parts app that comes with the rom and select the external option for where to install apps by default. 2 step process :p
[Desire Android Development] microbrain:
MMs sending problems here, apn is ok
[Desire Android Development] Psy-Blade:
Sorry, silly question (I thought there was a sticky on this but I can't find it?)

Flashing the radio? Same as flashing any other update? clockwork > update from zip on sd card? (For some reason I have an aversion to using rom manager to flash it haha :/)

Thanks guys, and special thanks to Richard for the awesomer oms :D
[Desire Android Development] EddyOS:
Yes, although I can't even flash this ROM at the moment - keeps saying some files can't be found and aborts...
[Desire Android Development] rolfd:
Yep, flash it as normal. Just remember it will reboot twice, and NEVER interrupt it or pull the battery if you think it's not working.
[Desire Android Development] ditsikts:
Nice work
[Desire Android Development] ephumuris:
Can confirm. Just stuck saying sending...
[Desire Android Development] fakts13:
Just sent one to myself successfully. Maybe check the apn settings? I'm on at&t I'm the us.
[Desire Android Development] alienwolf426:
hmm i didn't even know you could do that :s

will give that a try when i apply the next rom.

thanks
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Try to delete the file smdl2tmp1.asec on the SD card (there's a hidden folder on the sdcard .android_secure).
[Desire Android Development] myth1001:
I flashed 0.4 from 2.1 stock rom and everything is working fine.

Did you repartition/ wipe your sd card? Take notice that the recovery that Paul provided does not wipe properly. AMDesireRecovery does the job.
[Desire Android Development] DocRambone:
No, 0,4 is a full rom, if you dont want to wait for the devs to enble app2sd on their apps you have to enable it manually.
[Desire Android Development] Gambler_BE:
Maybe a stupid question, but as long as u manage ur temps, are there any other dangers in overclocking?
[Desire Android Development] Blaminator:
What's the word on the vibration and the automatic brightness issues?
[Desire Android Development] Letitflow:
I flashed from a total factory reset and wipe to 0.4 ---> There is no need to install 0.2 first.
[Desire Android Development] josifbg:
Just flashed 0.4 and can`t believe how laggy is the whole system...

Previously i was with rooted Stock ROM from Modaco

I`ve just enter the recovery wiped and flashed 0.4

The phone boot very fast the first time but then the whole system is laggy as hell...or i did something wrong?
[Desire Android Development] ulrar:
No lag for me, it's even faster than before !

Try to flash again, don't forget to wipe ?
[Desire Android Development] josifbg:
It`s really strange for me.. i`ve wiped and flashed as iam doing this every time iam flashing new rom... well i will wipe again and flash to check if helps..

BTW the first boot was really fast... not more than 30sec.. which surprised me...
[Desire Android Development] :
Lets face it guys, the OS is pure genius, but it is laggy.... Its defiantly not the finished article,

But the music application is amazing.....
[Desire Android Development] myth1001:
Check your max CPU speed with SetCpu. At one point, my phone was running max 300+ Mhz for no reason. Readjusted some settings in SetCpu and it was fine again.
[Desire Android Development] ulrar:
May be for you, but mine is realy not laggy.

SetCPU work great, and all the system work pretty fine :)

Even better than the 2.1 stock rom !

Strange ! =/

The music app looks great, but don't play flac .. (lossless audio format).

I had to install meridian :(
[Desire Android Development] josifbg:
Just placed the SetCPU widget on home screen and it`s shows me 998mas/245min

I`ve wiped and Re-flashed and it`s the same situation... lag lag lag
[Desire Android Development] MacCarron:
I'm gonna have to agree with you..2.2 is very good but current 2.1 roms are WAY snappier..:(

the setcpu "widget" always caused lag, ur better off just having the app installed, there is no real need for teh widget.

replace the setcpu.txt on ur sd with the one in the first post.

I personally have had numerous roms on the Hero and have tried every rom for the desire, just came from MCR 3.1 and froyo is fantastic, 0% lag..

CPU set to 245 min 1267 max
[Desire Android Development] looking-g:
how did you do this becaude with setcpu on sd still 998 mhz

In about phone.. in batteri info display is 84%, the rest is like 3-6 %.. drains fast

[Desire Android Development] maax990:
Disable active setcpu wdget use only normal widget,no more lag,sorry my english
[Desire Android Development] :
Its not set cpu widget causing the lag, unless you have it on active. Just keep to the passive widget... I have also tried every rom ranging from evils bare bone to pays sparta, and this rom is laggy, that's a fact, compared with a 2.1 rom...mind you compared with a hero its a porsche turbo;)

[Desire Android Development] shoey-n:
Brilliant work on 2.0, runs really smooth, can't find any issues a minute
[Desire Android Development] Stylez Ray.:
Quick question because I'm a bit confused: If I create an EXT partition, will this ROM automatically use old style A2SD? Or Is this ROM only meant to be used with Froyo A2SD?
[Desire Android Development] Nekromantik:
Yes

if you have EXT it will use it automatically.
[Desire Android Development] Stylez Ray.:
Thank you!
[Desire Android Development] shoey-n:
I always had a boot loop if I didn't have an EXT partition
[Desire Android Development] likefire:
Hi there,

actually I'm on orange (Switzerland) with simlock and I flashed both, the radio and DeFrost 2.0. So it's probably not on all orange networks :-)

great ROM btw!
[Desire Android Development] bariz143:
one question.

Do i flash the radio first or the rom??

thx
[Desire Android Development] shoey-n:
it doesn't matter what order, radio installs after you reboot from the recovery anyway
[Desire Android Development] bariz143:
just did it but it just rebots all the time..
[Desire Android Development] Egan:
It reboots twice. Don't interrupt this process or you may brick your phone. Just flash the radio and when done choose reboot and wait for your home screen to show up again. In the meantime be patient and wait :).
[Desire Android Development] MastaPole:
Can I delete the black Status bar, because the clock in the Right corner is now black too

MastaPole
[Desire Android Development] Egan:
Just reflash the full rom over your current installation without a wipe :).
[Desire Android Development] bariz143:
it doesnt reboot its just the nexus animation just goes on and on and on. doest do more then that
