Doesn't boot completely

Hi guys

after a long period I have decided to root my Desire.

Root-->OK

Then I decided to flash immediately the first ROM and this ROM is my first choice :D

But...I have a problem. I hope a stupid problem.

The ROM is flashed successfully, but when the Sense interface starts....it takes a long time and....it reboots again.

Flashed the ROM after wipe system, ext and Dalvik.

What's wrong?

Thanks in advance for any kind of help.
[Desire Android Development] haruryu:
yes you're right. after using it, it became boring hehe
[Desire Android Development] Bengaal:
Mate, I'm getting a linpack benchmark of 2.3-5.4? :(

What can be the problem?
[Desire Android Development] :
flash v12 and download the set cpu text file on richards trips kernel post mate;)
[Desire Android Development] Bengaal:
Yeah i did that already, but i think i found the problem.

The adw-launcher gave me some slowness. I uninstalled the launcher and now i get regular 7.8 mflps .
[Desire Android Development] :
Thats strange, i was running adw launcher no problem;) Im starting to really thing that v12 is not all that good either;( I am thinking of putting V7 on the front page because its the best kernel i have used so far, and a wopping 3mb less... i think pauls additions wasnt all that good;) v7 is top drawer;)
[Desire Android Development] vivus:
No one can help me? I have just partitioned again the SD card, this time as ext2 . I'll try again...
[Desire Android Development] :
vivus,

wipe all possible,

flash,

partition sd card swap 0 ext 2 512

partition to ext 2 -3

partition ext 3-4

then reboot and leave for 5 to 10 minutes... it needs time to fully odex;)
[Desire Android Development] vivus:
ext4? mmh.. ok!

Thanks for your answer!

I'll try immediately!
[Desire Android Development] :
any problems guys, write here and i will be around;P

The only difference between v7 an v12:

-# CONFIG_IOSCHED_CFQ is not set

+CONFIG_IOSCHED_CFQ=y

# CONFIG_DEFAULT_AS is not set

-CONFIG_DEFAULT_DEADLINE=y

-# CONFIG_DEFAULT_CFQ is not set

+# CONFIG_DEFAULT_DEADLINE is not set

+CONFIG_DEFAULT_CFQ=y

# CONFIG_DEFAULT_NOOP is not set

-CONFIG_DEFAULT_IOSCHED="deadline"

+CONFIG_DEFAULT_IOSCHED="cfq"

-CONFIG_MSM_CPU_FREQ_ONDEMAND_MAX=1267200

+CONFIG_MSM_CPU_FREQ_ONDEMAND_MAX=998400

and the 8mb ram hack. Maybe you should ask coolbho3000 if it's possible that the 8mb ram hack drains battery (i don't think so). In Froyo there are several people complaining about battery drain, and other people say it's better than 2.1 and they are using the exact same kernel (on the same rom).
[Desire Android Development] ahmgsk:
richard everyone at n1 forum including amonra are saying froyo drains battery lot faster n turns ur device hot.

i think its froyo not kernel

not 100% sure
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
I have good battery life during the day (do use setcpu profiles) so i know it's at least possible to use Froyo as a daily rom. Thanks for your comment.
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
Hi JupiterDroid, I've installed your ROM this morning and I have to admit that it's the fastest one I've seen so far, including FroYo ports. Kudos to Pays and to you for the great work!

I'm fine tuning it (as far as I can) by replacing Sense with LauncherPro (try out the new Beta 0.4!) as default shell, by adding my favourite alarm and ring tones and by installing the best widget out there.

I love the possibilities offered by a Rosie/Sense ROM but I love the polite and beauty of the Android native shell: so "hiding" Sense under LauncherPro and using a smart choice of 3rd party widgets is the perfect synthesis to me. Speed, lightweight and flexibility, other than extreme integration and plenty of features.

Again, thank you for your efforts! :-)
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
I didn't noticed that. You have to setup SetCPU in order to obtain decent battery life, but this is a general rule for all OC'ed kernels.
[Desire Android Development] ahmgsk:
y thanks we work for community and we are community.

together we stand divided we fall
[Desire Android Development] ahmgsk:
check amonra tweets

edit he even said battery temp is high with froyo
[Desire Android Development] :
Richard i now dont think its the 8mb hack, i think its the UV;( Had the same issue with V12, but has been a different phone since using the v12 OC only;)

JD
[Desire Android Development] :
WOW!!!!

massive speed & battery improvement with flashing v12 and v12 oc only;))))

unreal, try it;)

JD
[Desire Android Development] janvandusschoten:
I flashed this ROM this morning and rebooted and flashed MCR_uvoc_V12-signed after that. In your first post you also say that I need to flash "Richard Trips V12 OC only update (Flash directly after V12)". Is it a problem if I flash it now?

Realy like this ROM btw, it's going to stay on my Desire :)
[Desire Android Development] :
No its not a problem

I think the v12 oc only is a bit more stable, but its not compulsary;)

If you want to add it just flash the v12 oc only, on top of the v12 you already have installed.

Glad you like the rom, it makes it feel more like a music machine now.

JD
[Desire Android Development] :
EDIT;))))))))))
[Desire Android Development] :
If anyone suffers with the call bug on the double click on the headset, just clear call log;)
[Desire Android Development] janvandusschoten:
This morning my phone says it's fully charged, so I unplugged it. A few minutes later, it says that battery is at 89%, so not fully charged. Do I need to wipe battery stats again or is it kernel related?
[Desire Android Development] stewcp:
Where can I download the v12 oc only version... I can only see the uvoc :o
[Desire Android Development] janvandusschoten:
Strange, last nigt they were there, couse I've flashed both of them, and now they are gone. Looks like JD took them out of his post...
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
Last night I left my Desire with a live wallpaper active, WiFi, Bluetooth and GSM active, no task killer installed, for browsing since the last second last evening: this morning it loosed 4% of charge only! That's impressive.
[Desire Android Development] kerpz:
I found a bug. In android's "Phone", the slider does not go alphabetically.

Same goes to the music list in the music application.
[Desire Android Development] :
yeah guys, there is a few bugs here and there, im hoping like you guys that pay fixes these in his next release... Im not going to mess to much with his rom;)

all kernel links are on richard trips kernel post, I took them off because there are so many conflicting reports to these kernels I want you guys to make up your own minds...

Personally im using this rom with v12uvoc then flashed the v12 oc only, after......

You have to flash the v12uvoc first before you apply the v12 oc only patch.

I find better battery life with v12 oc only than just normal v12uvoc or v13

Also guys, this rom is basically pays 1.9 bs, so address the bugs to him;) he is fantastic and woo fix for the next release;)

JD
[Desire Android Development] goksar:
how can i backup the partiotion of the sd :confused:
[Desire Android Development] MasDroid:
Although performing a Nandroid backupvia Recovery mode works by backing up an exact image of your currently installed ROM, it does not backup the partition to the SD card. If you try the option to nandroid+ext backup, the you will mmost likely get the following error message:

"run nandroid-mobile.sh via ADB", and a subsequent restore from this option fails.

I suggest you try to backup everything using Titanium. Then you can return to a regular Nandroid image and simply restore my data with Titanium.
[Desire Android Development] :
New advice is to download and use Richard Trips v14oc only version;) I will put a link on the first page....

JD
[Desire Android Development] janvandusschoten:
Can I flash this one if I already flashed the 12v versions and what is the advantage of this kernel?
[Desire Android Development] MasDroid:
Probably more stable without uv and better battery consumption.
[Desire Android Development] :
Cheers M;)

JD
[Desire Android Development] goksar:
nandroid backup and then titanium...allright,thx a lot :)
[Desire Android Development] kkoange:
I am using this ROM atm and it's working like a charm ;)

So, to be sure I didn't make something wrong, here is what I did :

- Format/Partioning SD, then ext2->ext3 and then ext3->ext4

- Flash Jupiter ROM

- Flash NexusSTOCKBOOT

- Flash MCR_oc_v14

- Reboot device

Is it ok ?

Also, would it be possible to know what are the difference between :

- CM_oc

- CM_uvoc

- MCR_oc

- MCR_uvoc

For what I think :

CM : Based on Cyanogen (and for stock rom)

MCR : Based MoDaCo Custom Rom (this one for PaYs based rom)

oc : Allready overclocked

uv : UnderVoltage ??

So, what does mean these and what is better for our phone and why ?

Thanks for answers and sorry for my poor english.
[Desire Android Development] MasDroid:
While in recovery, you should wipe storage, cache, dalvik, etc first and then flash the Jupiter ROM afterwards. After flashing the ROM, then you partition the sd card accordingly and convert ext2 to ext3 and ext3 to ext4. After that, you can flash the necessary zip files (NexusStockBoot and the MCR_oc_v14)

From my understanding...

- CM_oc = modified kernel for CM ROM that is overclocked without undervolted.

- CM_uvoc = modified kernel for CM ROM that has modified overclock and undervoltage settings.

- MCR_oc = modified kernel for MCR ROM that is overclocked without undervolted.

- MCR_uvoc = modified kernel for CM ROM that has modified overclock and undervoltage settings.

I'm not sure about (and can't remember) the exact differences between the MCR (based MoDaCo Custom's ROMs kernel) and CM (based on Cyanogen's ROMs kernel) versions, but I would suggest you send a pm to Richard or check the changelog notes on each modified kernel release for specifics.

UV (Undervolting) is the bane of overclocking. Overclocking typically draws more power (thus more heat, etc) and it NEEDS that voltage to be stable at the new clock speed. Undercutting that would just lead you to a lock up. Typically you only undervolt if you're looking to improve heat dissipation, use less energy, or otherwise not overstress a CPU.
[Desire Android Development] goksar:
everythink works..but i can't find every app in the market :s
[Desire Android Development] :
There is problems in the market at the moment, it will be ok in a few days;)

JD
[Desire Android Development] goksar:
aahh,okaaaiii :) thx ma friend!

another question...which kernel is better?v14 oder v12...?
[Desire Android Development] darrenjdoc:
Hi

I wonder is this problem just with my phone.

My screen never turns off unless i hit the power button.

Any ideas ???

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] :
very strange, not a bug of this rom that i know of;( Erm... that is a weird one;)... maybe try a reboot?

JD
[Desire Android Development] darrenjdoc:
Tried a reboot but it was the same.

When i went into display and changed the screen timeout to 30 secs it worked but when i changed it back to 1 min it wouldnt turn off. Think i will just keep it to 30 secs :)

It indeed is a weird one JD. Thanks !!
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
Just flashed over v14oc kernel as advised: the Desire seems even more responsive now, this ROM simply rocks!
[Desire Android Development] :
it seems something has become corrupted within your OS,

you can either reflash and lightning should not strike twice, or fight on at 30 seconds;)

Did you flash any kernels? also have you got the always on when on charge highlighted on the usb debug menu?

JD
[Desire Android Development] :
@ngel

have you experienced the bug where you use double click to skip to the next song on the handset and it calls someone if you have a number in your phone log?

jd;)
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
Are you speaking about the wired headset? No, I haven't tried that since I use a Bluetooth A2DP headset for listening music, and I don't even have a wired one with me at the moment.
[Desire Android Development] :
I think that's why most people are avoiding this bug, thanks for the feedback... This rom is cool, I hope pays integrates the music app in the next sparta, glad its good for you mate.... The v14 oc only is AMAZING!
[Desire Android Development] Rob1ou:
Hey great ROM i just would like to know the name of the music app?

this one is on the third image you link

regards
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
There's only one thing I notice, and I'm not sure is ROM related or what: the notification tones keep randomically change. For instance, I set the general notification tone to a given one and after a few hours connecting the Desire to the PC triggers an annoying song that I didn't setup; looking at the settings, no ring tone is selected.

Does anybody noticed such an odd behaviour?
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
That's the stock music player (way better than the Sense one, IMHO). However, I'm using mixzing right now.
[Desire Android Development] kevinlow:
hi JD,

first of all.thanks for the nice rom.but i have a feq questions after flashing it.i cant enlarge or reduce image on a browser and photo by dragging them(like iphone style).i can only double click on them to do so.not too sure which are the apps causing it.this happen on both of my desire.

i installed like 30++ apps as listed :

Advance Task Killer

APNdroid

AppControl

Bluetooth File Transfer

DocumentsToGo

ES File Explorer

Handcent

Klaxon

LauncherPro

Maps

MyBackupPro

NDrive

NewsRob

PureCalender Widget

RealPlater

RootExplorer

XDA

and others are games..when i have a flash installation.everythings work fine.any advice on the above??

and i ve been surfing on net for 27 mins and my battery went down from 100% to 86%.im running with live wallpaper & data connection.any advice on setting up the SetCPU to lower the power consumption??

apart from this 2 issues.the rom works perfectly.

many thanks in advance.
[Desire Android Development] MasDroid:
The music app is taken from CM 5.06 ROM for the Nexus One.

More information on how to manually install it here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=692822
[Desire Android Development] :
use the setcup directions in richard trips kernel post, plus dont use live wallpaper, it drains like a *****;) If you are experiencing bugs with the rom, direct them to Pay, as its his rom, i just intergrated the nexus music app and lockscreen;) But a reflash should solve your problem.

JD
[Desire Android Development] darrenjdoc:
I cant believe whats just happened. I was looking at my phone and thinking the battery life was great on this rom when it just slipped out of my hand onto a wooden floor. The cover and the battery fell out. I put it back together and turned it on. The screen has now fuzzy lines all over it. Its broke. I cant believe it :(
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
Very, very sorry mate. :-(

That's the reason why I always use a case, a screen protector and a whirst strap...
[Desire Android Development] :
Yes sorry to hear that, is it insured? If it isnt, insure it then wait for the cooling off period to expire then lose it;) hahaha

Not that im promoting fraud or anything;)

JD
[Desire Android Development] odyseus:
Hi

Thanks for the ROM installed it without any issues :)

Then I installed Richard Trips v14oc only Kernel.

Do I need to do anything else (I want to make the battery last)

Are there recommended setCPU settings for the Desire ( I also have ultimate juice installed , because it effectively switches off all connections during the night!)

All the best

John

PS Hopefully, we'll get full flash support one day ???
[Desire Android Development] darrenjdoc:
I was going to buy a case for it but didnt see one i fancied ...

I bought the phone sim free from Carphonewarehouse. I wonder could i still take the insurance out with them ? I have had it for about 6/7 weeks now.

Going to ring them now. Its going to have to be from the house phone lol
[Desire Android Development] :
you can follow the setcpu instructions on richard trips kernel post, thats only if you want to over or under clock;)

JD;)
[Desire Android Development] darrenjdoc:
Dam it was 9 weeks ago and they wont do it. Going to have to buy a new screen from somewhere. Its not the outter glass thats broke. It seems to be whatever is in behind it. Going to have to google to find a repair store or maybe go and buy a Dell Streak :D
[Desire Android Development] :
see if you can get it covered on warranty, just say you switched it on and it was like that;)
[Desire Android Development] :
take it back to carphone warehouse and say you just switched it on and the screen went like this, there was no physical damage at all....

JD
[Desire Android Development] darrenjdoc:
Heading that way now JD. I will let you know how i get on :)
[Desire Android Development] :
good man, good luck;) if it shows no sign of physical damage, they have to put that right, as its under shop warranty for 1 year i think because of the regulations regarding electrical goods....

all the best;)

JD
[Desire Android Development] MasDroid:
But you have rooted your phone and are running a customised ROM? They will probably check for that and might tell you that you have void the warranty?

I would suggest that you first flash back to stock if that is the case.

Good luck matey.
[Desire Android Development] :
Good call M;)
[Desire Android Development] kevinlow:
thanks for the reply..anyway..regardless of whichever rom i flashed..all the enlarge/reduce (by dragging like iphone) on borwser or photo work for a few mins..after a while..it wont work again..i have to restart it to get it work again but still the issue will come back..

i've tried on several rom and there are the same..any idea??

many thanks in advance
[Desire Android Development] MasDroid:
Just hope he read this before ran out the door :D
[Desire Android Development] MasDroid:
Are you referring to the multi-touch/pinch-to-zoom feature of the phone that appears to be temperamental?

I remember reading about something similar where Swype was the culprit. I can't think of suggesting anything else other than Hard Reset/Flash another custom ROM... but as aforementioned, you say this problem exists with every ROM custom you flash. Try flashing back to stock ROM to check whether this resolves your problem.
[Desire Android Development] kevinlow:
well.im trying now to reflash it again and without installing the chinese keyboard..hope this help since u were saying it might coz by installing other keyboard..

many thanks for the hint..will report back in a while..
[Desire Android Development] MasDroid:
Well, that is quite interesting since you mention it could be to do with the Chinese keyboard, hope it all works out well for you.

Regards.
[Desire Android Development] :
that happened to me when i first got stock rom, but a restart used to cure it;)

JD;)
[Desire Android Development] LaurensBER:
Does this include coverflow on horizontal view? As can be seen here : http://androidforums.com/motorola-droid/40971-milestone-music-player-w-coverflow.html

Edit :

can't figure out if this is based on the Sense or Sparta version?
[Desire Android Development] :
Based on bs
[Desire Android Development] darrenjdoc:
By the time i got there Carphonewarehouse was nearly closed and there was a crowd in so i left it. I realise the warranty will be void but its impossible for me to unroot it with the screen the way it is. I will go back on Monday and chance my arm.

When i ring my mobile it goes straight to answer machine while it can still accept texts.

Weird :)
[Desire Android Development] :
to un root you only have too run the ruu, you dont have to do anything with the phone... You only have to make sure the phone is on and you do the rest of the work on the pc... Give it a go mate, it will cover your ass just incase.

JD
[Desire Android Development] darrenjdoc:
I didnt know you could do that. I will attempt that this evening when i come home from my mums Sunday roast. That is if i make it home :)

Thanks for the heads up JD.
[Desire Android Development] :
no problem,

I will upload the unroot ruu and send you the link on a PM;)

JD;)
[Desire Android Development] :
Link to re-root mate

Just boot the phone, then apply this

anybody knows how to fix the fast scroll in android contacts? when i drag it, it doesnt seem to go from "A-Z". It starts from "W" to "u" to "O". its all jumbled up. Same goes for the scrolling in the android music player when going through all the songs. Any feedback is appreciated.
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
Just to say that this has become the main ROM for me and a couple of friends of mine.

Thank you!
[Desire Android Development] :
No problem @ngel, glad you like mate;) For updates to this look towards pays sparta;) The new version has the nexus music player intergrated now;)

Good luck,

How can I see what kernel version is on my phone? atm it says

2.6.29-bravo-r13 trip@trip-laptop #24
[Desire Android Development] :
your kernel version is v13 uvoc, unless you have changed it
[Desire Android Development] janvandusschoten:
If I flash Richard Trips v14oc only Kernel (link in the second post doesn't work btw) like you suggest, will the r13 in the kernel version change in r14?
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
Obviously yes. ;)
[Desire Android Development] kevinlow:
been using yr rom for few days and i can only say i m lovin it.no major issue for me on yr rom.and i manage to solve the disappearing of multitouch by uninstalling the chinese keyboard..

found one small issue today..when there s incoming call while the phone is in sleep mode/standby mode..i will have to either drag down/up to recieve/reject the call instead of with the red reject and green answer button..

how can i get the red/green button by default???

many thanks in advance
[Desire Android Development] kerpz:
i would like to know the answer to this too. Sometimes i get the red and green button and sometimes i will get the screen to drag down/up. It is really random.
[Desire Android Development] kevinlow:
so do i..me and my gf s desire having this minor issue..randomly on the answering mode..
[Desire Android Development] :
one is when your on screen lock, and the other is in noromal use of the phone. sense call answer is when your screen is locked, and green and red button is when your unlocked;)

JD
[Desire Android Development] kevinlow:
Can we have only the red green button only for answering call?

Many thanks in advance ...
[Desire Android Development] :
point your wishes on pays sparta page, its his rom, and he has now introduced the music player to sparta, so this rom is now dated....

Sparta is cool............

But froyo 0.7 rules the world;)

JD
[Desire Android Development] kevinlow:
Thanks for the reply..been enjoy using yr Rom now..thanks for yr effort.
[Desire Android Development] :
no problem,

It was ment to be a tempoary solution until pay waved his magic wand;)

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] cashless:
This is probably common knowledge to anyone that's used Android in the past. Clearing your dalvik cache is a pretty easy way to regain some performance out of your device temporarily. On native Android phones this is generally done in the recovery mode, but it can also be done in the terminal. Since we done have the benefit of recovery mode, we can just do it in the terminal.

This is method strictly experimental for the time being.

Just go to your terminal emulator and run the following commands:

$su

# cd data/dalvik-cache

#rm *

#exit

You can create this as a script and run it from this app. (apk download here)

Android Scripting Environment

It's that easy.

What's next? Some backported JIT action, stay tuned.
