Update Google Maps FIX

i quote:

Now after my install of Froyo: Maps wasn't accessible, I couldn't install it from the market, and wasn't in the Settings->Applications->Manage applications menu.

I tried running zone117x's code in the adb and I could only get the second line to go through - because Maps wasn't really installed. However, some artifacts were left over from the recovery image that prevent the install from market.

Once you mount your device with read-write access (with the adb) and give adb root privileges (once again, with the adb), you must edit the /data/system/packages.xml file. There is an entry that looks something like:

<shared-user name="com.google.android.apps.maps" userId="10028">
<sigs count="1">
<cert index="13" />
</sigs>
<perms>
<item name="com.android.launcher.permission.INSTALL_SHORTCUT" />
<item name="android.permission.USE_CREDENTIALS" />
<item name="android.permission.GET_TASKS" />
<item name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<item name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE" />
<item name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" />
<item name="android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS" />
<item name="android.permission.READ_CONTACTS" />
<item name="android.permission.CALL_PHONE" />
<item name="com.google.android.apps.maps.permission.PUSH_MESSAGE" />
<item name="android.permission.WRITE_CONTACTS" />
<item name="com.google.android.googleapps.permission.GOOGLE_AUTH" />
<item name="com.google.android.providers.gsf.permission.READ_GSERVICES" />
<item name="android.permission.DISABLE_KEYGUARD" />
<item name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE" />
<item name="com.google.android.googleapps.permission.GOOGLE_AUTH.local" />
<item name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<item name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
<item name="android.permission.MANAGE_ACCOUNTS" />
<item name="android.permission.VIBRATE" />
<item name="android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO" />
<item name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
<item name="android.permission.WAKE_LOCK" />
</perms>
</shared-user>

Remove this entry. Put the packages.xml file back on to your Desire and then restart. Then you should be able to install Maps from the market.

The steps for us:

adb pull /data/system/packages.xml packages.xml

vi packages.xml (or your favorite editor)

remove code and save

adb push packages.xml /data/system/packages.xml

reboot phone (adb shell reboot)

update Google Maps from market.
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
If there's something wrong with my build i like to fix it fast (just to overcome more and more people are getting the same problem) . For sure i can't test every possible combination so the google maps update "problem" is not something i would test on a new build (i can't test if all applications update properly because i have to put old versions of all of them on my build). I will of course do my best to to get the builds as bug free as it could be but as you know there's no such thing as bug-free :-)

If there are bugs again keep me sharp and comment again ;)
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Update:

Version 1.5f:

* Updated Google Maps and moved to /data/app/
[Desire Android Development] lpachuong:
I updated from 1.5c and I have no problem so far. Thx Richard and enjoy watching to football match tonight XD
[Desire Android Development] x87:
Thank you so much for your good work and fast updates!

Maps-fix in 1.5f works fine!
[Desire Android Development] jay3d:
Thanks for this great ROM Richard!

Google googles app is not working and I cannot uninstall it, Arabic letters displayed but disconnected, is it a font thing?
[Desire Android Development] AndroidGX:
Thanks richard for the update because I tried using Root Explorer method and packages.xml ones but nothing to do, still refusing to update/install, was going crazy there lol, gonna try your new 1.5f on the way ;)
[Desire Android Development] fanello123:
I installed 1.5f without wipe, now maps is completly gone and it can't be installed from marekt, still the same fault.
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
If you have the Maps problem you need to wipe, or use the fix:

http://www.mydroidworld.com/forums/motorola-droid/2537-google-maps-fix-froyo.html
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Then don't forget to wipe when you have a Google Maps update problem.
[Desire Android Development] blackie84:
up :)

I also ask me the same thing
[Desire Android Development] hphphphphphp:
exec '/system/bin/sh' failed: No such file or directory <2>

Hello, could someone please advise me how to get the "Install ALL apps to SD" on 1.5d. Whenever I enter in the cmd adb-windows shell pm setInstallLocation 2, so write it exec '/system/bin/sh' failed: No such file or directory <2>. Do you know someone what to do?
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
We have to wait for HTC.
[Desire Android Development] dnlgee:
Do you have the SDK or ADB files installed?
[Desire Android Development] hphphphphphp:
Yes, i have
[Desire Android Development] dnlgee:
Try it this way.

1) adb shell (or adb-windows shell)

2) pm setInstallLocation 2
[Desire Android Development] Pyr0x64:
or install a terminal emulator on the phone and type it in there

or even easier, use the included spare parts app to specify install location
[Desire Android Development] jokage:
Since 1.4 I'm getting constant browser fc on websites I'm running 1. 5d at the moment I'm gonna flash f but the issue is still there. Is anyone else having the same issue?
[Desire Android Development] hphphphphphp:
Thank you for your help. I used the Terminal Emulator and it works perfectly
[Desire Android Development] Nekromantik:
I just installed 1.5f with a full wipe and re-stored with titanium backup and then restarted the phone and now its in a boot loop on the startup screen.
[Desire Android Development] fanello123:
I have the same fault. After pulling the battery the phone bootet directly and the next restore with titanium was succesful.

Is there a combination which lets the phone die instead of pulling the battery? I hate opening the case....
[Desire Android Development] blackie84:
Thank you, Richard!!
[Desire Android Development] Nekromantik:
yeah I had to pull battery out. I did not restore again but had to reboot 3 times in total to get all apps back. Had to reinstall 3G watchdog as the backup did not seem to work.

Will see how my battery life is with this ROM.
[Desire Android Development] El Massman:
finally caved in and decided to try this out. really good. haven't had any problems so far. great work.
[Desire Android Development] bisko:
Ok, as a pre-rooter I have a few questions, just to make sure that I am not flashing too soon.

1st. Is the echo problem fixed in 1.5f and most importantly (which I am interested more in) - What caused it? I mean is it the Phone.apk or some other thing.

2nd. How stable is the rom? Do you have dropped calls or huge battery drainage?

3rd. And may be the most important :) Does the alarm work 100%. I've seen people saying that sometimes the alarm just doesn't ring on Froyo flashed Desires and I use only my phone as an alarm clock.

Thanks for any answers on this :)
[Desire Android Development] Diamond360:
Will be a fix coming soon ^^?
[Desire Android Development] blubber83:
I'm not so sure if it's fixed. People are reporting that it's not completely fixed, but it is a lot less then it used to be. As for me, I'm using 2.2 now, the echo/white noise is at a level low enough for me to use it fulltime. But it's really up to you, some people find it more annoying then others ... I'm not quite sure if anybody knows what is exactly causing it, but to me it seems to mic's gain is way too high. The new Phone.apk has it's noise cancellation turned off, personally I don't think this is the cause of the problem but it seems to help a fair bit.

Apart from the Camera app causing a reboot when you try to record video I've had no crashes yet, no calls dropped. Battery life is generally great here, last night I had 5 hours of sleep, and roughly 5% battery loss, thats about 1% an hour on stand-by. However, at one point I was at 1.3 for a night, and my battery drained from 90% to 20% in a single night. Battery seems to do fine now though, also make sure you set your CPU freq governer to on-demand.

For me it has been working great, don't come after me if you oversleep though :]. The only clock problem I had was with another 2.2 rom I believe, where the alarm wouldn't shut down, but at least you're awake if that happens.
[Desire Android Development] hatton920:
Anyone still having the led light stuck on after a text or email?
[Desire Android Development] bisko:
blubber83 thanks a lot, I will see now how it turns out :) And if I oversleep I'm definitely coming after you ... when I wake up :D
[Desire Android Development] blubber83:
Got my fingers crossed :]
[Desire Android Development] jaketurbo:
I've got apps2sd+ enabled, most of my apps were on the memory card but I can't launch them or even see them.

I have to move them back to the internal memory to get them to be visible again.

Have I done something wrong?
[Desire Android Development] dnlgee:
Did you do a full wipe before installing 1.5? I found that my apps were wiped when I done a clean install :D
[Desire Android Development] jaketurbo:
The apps are there, i can select to move them back to the internal memory and they work fine after a restart.

Anything that I have installed to the memory card isn't visible from the launcher.

Im used to the old apps2sd so is there something else I have to do?
[Desire Android Development] Nekromantik:
blue led dont work for me and battery life is quite bad at loosing 1% every 5 mins or so. my desire dont seem to like defrost roms as on r19 and r17 battery life was good. :( shame as its a nice rom
[Desire Android Development] bradputt:
thats strange, i find defrost roms are less battery hungry than MCR.

that's why i moved back to defrost after 2 weeks on MCR
[Desire Android Development] hugosan_tr:
When i first tried 1.4 after 1.2 with a wipe, i had battery drain problem. Then i gave it another go, but this time w/o wipe. Guess what, no battery problem. it was still showing %100 after 4 hours of standby, unbelievable :D. It was too good to be true. Than it droped to %95 in a couple of minutes of using. But hay its only %5 after 4 hours. Now i flashed 1.5 and it works without any problem. Haven't tested all the functions though.
[Desire Android Development] LBTaylor1984:
google goggles FC all the time :(
[Desire Android Development] bradputt:
yip same problem , i un-installed it.
[Desire Android Development] Inc:
Same here. Tried to uninstall/reinstall - same. Closes when starting camera.

/Martin
[Desire Android Development] dnlgee:
This. Never had any need for it so I always remove it.
[Desire Android Development] Nekromantik:
I had MCR 19 running before so did a wipe.

I will leave it on for now and observe battery over night.
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Blue led does work. Try with adb method. If you have battery drain please try stock or uvonly.
[Desire Android Development] BlackLine7:
As I already mentioned before I have really good battery life!

Try setting your profiles in SetCPU! I did it like that:

Charging

768 - 1267 MHz

ondemand

Sleep/Standby

245 - 576 MHz

ondemand

Power < 50%

245 - 1113 MHz

ondemand

Power < 25%

245 - 883 MHz

ondemand

with that my battery life is excelent!

Also in settings - location i disabled use wireless networks and GPS satelites!

and also under date & time settings i disabled automatic :)

Hope that helps :D
[Desire Android Development] Nekromantik:
I tried the adb method of turning it on and it works.

thanks

battery drain issue is weird as im using the UV kernal and got setcpu setup same as I did on R19 and no extra background services running and it drains faster.

Cant figure out why as nothing is different about my setup.

I got a profile to downclock to 500mhz when on standbye and gps on which is exactly same setup as R19 as I said above, and that ROM I had good battery life.
[Desire Android Development] LeeDroid:
GPS is a big battery drain on any mobile device
[Desire Android Development] K3yMaster:
Is A2SD+ included in the full ROM or do you need something special?
[Desire Android Development] BlackLine7:
A2SD+ is included and you only need to create an ext partition if you don't have it already! :P
[Desire Android Development] K3yMaster:
Thx. And there isn't an issue with ext3. I just remember something about froyo not supporting ext3.
[Desire Android Development] Nekromantik:
I know that and if u read I said I had exactly same setup on R19, GPS on and had good battery life. Its just my Desire dont like any other froyo ROMs. It drains like mad on anything else.
[Desire Android Development] gosnis:
What's the adb method?
[Desire Android Development] BlackLine7:
It isn't using the Google or Froyo A2SD... coz it just sucks. :(

It's the old A2SD+ you saw on 2.1 ROMs which stores the .apks on an EXT partition.

EXT3 seems to be recommended now :)

P.S.: You read that right... Froyo A2SD doesn't support EXTs, but the old one does.
[Desire Android Development] fakts13:
type in adb shell:

echo 1 > /sys/class/leds/blue/brightness turns on

echo 0 > /sys/class/leds/blue/brightness turns off
[Desire Android Development] Nekromantik:
I think it is using froyo a2sd as the spare parts app works on defrost 1.5f and richard said he fixed google a2sd.
[Desire Android Development] kurt666:
is this newest rom deodexed, because i can't change png files in the framework i have tried to use xultimate to deodex it but it says no oxed files found.

This is the problem, when i have flashed the rom with my changed icons it just get stock in the X boot screen.

Please help me i would love to make a new framework for this rom.

BTW richardtrip thank you for the best froyo rom on xda :)
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
You can use both methods :-)
[Desire Android Development] Nekromantik:
i got a ext3 partition on my sd card so do I just use that busybox command to see what method mine is using?
[Desire Android Development] Dactylion:
setrom 1.0

- Fixed cable plug unplug led charge

could you ad this fix to your rom?

its really annoying to reboot the device to turn the led off.
[Desire Android Development] Lambrecht:
I'm wondering, i have turned the "apps on external" in SpareParts - if i then manually moves my apps to the SD card in Settings/Apps/Manage Apps/ and thereafter puts my widgets on my homescreen - then if i reboots, all my widgets are gone, and i have to put them back on
[Desire Android Development] Nekromantik:
yes. you cant store widgets on SD card.

They need to be stored on internal memory otherwise you will keep having to re-add them.
[Desire Android Development] shawe_ewahs:
How we can move only certains apps/widgets to internal memory if I selected install all apps on SD?
[Desire Android Development] Nekromantik:
settings/applications/manage

go to the widget and then press move to phone :)
[Desire Android Development] Aladar42:
Seems I started having battery drain issue ever since 1.5
[Desire Android Development] hugosan_tr:
You can try flashing earlier versions and than 1.5 back. Did work for me.
[Desire Android Development] PsYDoX:
Of Cource you can^^
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
It is Froyo. My kernels do support EXT2/3/4.
[Desire Android Development] kenny17430:
HI,

To change my rom to Froyo, which tuto should I follow ??? I am a bit newbee ^^

I have a stock 2.1 desire, and bought it without any operator.
[Desire Android Development] MaTiCeK-:
So in order to get froyo ona r1 rooted Desire, I have to:

- first flash the ashgsk_mod recovery

- flash the defrost rom

Is that correct? Do I need to do anything special for flashing the recovery or is it just flashing via recovery-windows.bat app?
[Desire Android Development] JDouce:
just via the recovery-windows.bat

use ahmgsk's tho
[Desire Android Development] mupper:
Re: [ROM] DeFroST 0.1 Desire Froyo

Nur what did i have to Do in the SD card Menü? Only whipe cash and Format?

[Desire Android Development] Tuborgmann:
Does this ROM contain the latest work of ahmgsk or will he upload his own ROM later?
[Desire Android Development] JDouce:
id wipe everything
[Desire Android Development] PsYDoX:
Rooted and just Flashing the ROM now..... Screenshots ar following xD
[Desire Android Development] Jagdish84:
Kindda off topic, but was wondering how come everyones recommending ahmgsk's recovery? (not takin out anythin he did of course) why is it better and we should use it instead of the stock one?

Btw its easier to just back up your data using tit backup save the backup folder on the computer and getting it bk after flashin froyo and wiping the device (imo of course)
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
It's 100 % my own rom. What latest work?
[Desire Android Development] Sir-ay:
recovery-windows.bat, flash its work fine!

Installed and thanks for hard work!:)
[Desire Android Development] Tuborgmann:
Looking at this thread and his twitter he has been working on it all morning. Dont know specifically what he has done.
[Desire Android Development] Jagdish84:
is it packed with rosie\sense UI?
[Desire Android Development] Dr_Ash:
a couple of questions...

Ok, I have a few questions before I think about flashing this bad boy...

I am rooted with MCR r3 with MCK 1.1 and A2SD+

1. I have a 0.75 bootloader... will this rom update my bootloader to 0.80?

2. where is the modified recovery script? (I need a mac version) Where can this be downloaded?
[Desire Android Development] PsYDoX:
Screen Brightness on first boot VERY LOW xD
[Desire Android Development] abdalah2004:
just flashed it working great job ;)
[Desire Android Development] iDance°-->ra1n:
+1 i want know it too!
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
When i give him my version yesterday evening he had to sort out how to get the mic working in his version (already worked in mine). Last time i spoke to him he had the same problems as i have.
[Desire Android Development] hopiconjo:
Installed en works great. Many thanx!
[Desire Android Development] martinlong78:
Depends who you speak to. 0.2 it was pretty bad, but 0.3 has SetCPU, and after setting that up I'm getting 8hr + out of mine, and that's with WiFi enabled. I'm sure it's even better than 2.1
[Desire Android Development] oawalker:
Had the same problem on 0.3 and i've just set up the CPU and my phone isn't constantly hot any more also the battery seems to be much much better

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] chrmrt:
What settings are you guys using in SetCPU?
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
SetCPU plays a main role in containing battery drain: just use default settings and you'll be fine (245-1136 or so) even without profiles active.
[Desire Android Development] martinlong78:
Just check "Auto Refesh" and "Set on Boot"... that should be all you need to do.
[Desire Android Development] sruon:
What do you guys use as widgets? Gotta admit stock one ****ing blows...
[Desire Android Development] oawalker:
Just flashed 0.4 and it's very nice to see all the apps back in the app store now i can play my raging thunder 2 and all my games :D

it was also nice to see all my apps automatically install when i boot up.

Also this rom seems faster when in the home screen and menu

Thanks keep up the good work
[Desire Android Development] samac92:
tried to flash 0.4 and i get a verification failed error.

do i have to flash 0.2 first?

am i doing it right? I copy zip to root of sd, enter into recovery and flash from sdcard?
[Desire Android Development] Letitflow:
I don't really understand the instructions.

Can anyone help me out?

I know how to flash and how to use adb, but at which time exactly do i have to do "adb shell pm setInstallLocation 2" for A2SD ? (first flash the new ROM or first use "adb shell pm setInstallLocation 2" ?)

And what do the Widgets have to do with A2SD? I'm really confused right now :/.
[Desire Android Development] myth1001:
When the phone is on, connect it to your pc and run the command in adb. (After flashing and everything)

Install widgets in internal memory cause the phone might not be able to detect the widget after rebooting if the widget is installed in the sdcard.
[Desire Android Development] Letitflow:
Thanks alot mate!
[Desire Android Development] lethalfriend:
I have flashed this rom and its pretty good' just curious about one thing. Notification led is always on, is this normal??
[Desire Android Development] samac92:
Nevermind, done it now. Very impressed, glad to get rid of sense! Just tried flash and its probably worse than flash lite. I'm not sure if adobe can improve it enough by the time it's out of beta.
[Desire Android Development] catohagen:
Hi,

DeFrost 0.4 have SetCPU 1.5.2 installed, how can i upgrade to 1.5.4 ? uinstall or upgrade didnt work as its flashed i guess..
[Desire Android Development] dancedreamfly:
It's cause setCPU is installed in /system/app. I guess using ADB you can rm -r, then install it as a normal app.
[Desire Android Development] shuaibmd:
can you add htc sync
[Desire Android Development] makafeli:
I had in the evening yesterday updated to 0.4 around 00:30, and now the battery was empty, and i went to sleep with 90% of battery, and with version 0.2 it went longer then 1 complete day with batterymanagment...

Ill try to wipe and see if that helps.

Someone maybe a idea why the battery drain is so high, as i went from 0.2 to 0.4

personal feedbacks

Hi all,

First of all, thanks a lot for that nice rom and and work done to deliver a Froyo port so quick.

Just a post to share my personal feedbacks.

(As I'm a fan of Sense UI it's always hard to be on a pure android one...)

- The rom is extremely stable.

- It is working very fine here and as I use to do before going to sleep, switching the phone in flight mode and turning the screen off doesn't make me face any different battery drain compared to latest MCR.

- I'm glad to see that the UI can now be rotated left and right (tbh I've never tried on a 2.1 non Sense rom.

- Strangely I've got better HTML5/JS results with dolphin browser HD than with the new stock one.

Check the first page for the black status bar… not sure if the battery percentage is working yet though.

Doesn't work for me. I see black status bar, but no percentages. :(
