Just did my first flash of OD and its great. Takes a little getting used to the default android.

I did have an issue with wireless not working though in 3.1.2 my flash went

Flash 3.1

Reboot flash 3.1.2

Flash radio .20

Wireless not working wipe reflash to 3.1 everything ok

Was this because of the order I flashed in?

Should I install .2?

Thx for s great rom

Here's something strange that happened a while ago:

Was charging my desire (with 3.1>3.1.1>3.1.2) and having a phone conversation as well, when I looked at the battery it says 93% but full and now it seems that it's still FULL, CHARGING but slowly depleting.

Still figuring out what's going on though.

Anyone experiencing the same thing?

Sent from nowhere
[Desire Android Development] heavymetalmage:
Can't remember which thread I read it in but the Desire will charge up to full while plugged in, then slowly deplete to 90% and then charging will kick in again until full.

[Desire Android Development] idcoolrocker:
Hey,

Im fairly new to this and I have a problem.

I have rooted my phone and im using clockworkmod recovery. I installed opendesire from sdcard but the phone wont boot.

Im using a T-mobile phone (unlocked) and it just sits there on the purple loading screen.

Any ideas how to fix this please.

Thanks.
[Desire Android Development] nespresso33:
No regrettably , only Sense rom have FM Radio .
[Desire Android Development] iinga:
Partition the SD Card :)

That should be added to an FAQ too: If this is your first ROM you must partition the SD card using Rom Manager/Gparted/Amonra recovery to have an EXT partition
[Desire Android Development] cheatelli:
Did you wipe data and cache? If not, that may be your solution. (Take out the battery, put it in, turn the phone on while holding down vol down, load clockwork recovery by applying úpdate from update.zip, wipe cache and reinstall OpenDesire.

I'm new too, so I might be mistaken, in which case I'm sure someone will point it out ;)
[Desire Android Development] idcoolrocker:
so the update.zip has to be on the sd card too?
[Desire Android Development] iinga:
@idcoolrocker did you partition your sd card? if not that's what you need to do. Not play with update.zip
[Desire Android Development] idcoolrocker:
ah no i didnt, can you tell me what steps i need to take?
[Desire Android Development] idcoolrocker:
right i think i made a really stupid mistake!

I think i installed the update first by accident lol any way to fix this?
[Desire Android Development] zeussn:
The problem I see is that by removing the app2sd some people (like me) wouldn't have room to move all they current apps to the phone memory. (I have 139mb used on sd-ext and only 94mb free on the phone).

[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
So? Wipe everything, install 3.1 and then the update again... no big deal, I should think. :)

yeah i just tried that and it works now... thanks anyway
[Desire Android Development] zAo_:
Yeah, I have the latest radio (.20)
[Desire Android Development] smokinjoe18:
Well i did a total wipe, re-installed 3.1.0 then the update 3.1.2 and the phone has been sitting in the same place for the last 3 hrs before locking the phone i have 5bars 2g reception then when i checked 3hrs later I had 13% no signal...

Any ideas anyone much appreciated..........

2 Odd problems on 3.1.2, done a clean wipe and re-install but both re-occurring.

1st: Put phone on charge (mains) while downloading from market some updates, power charge light and icon went away back to %batt, then back to charging, on and off seemingly random timings. I check for loose cable but no. Re-Flashed LeeDroid - charge OK while downloading from market. Flash back to OD3.1.2 and same problem. Anyone have any ideas.

2nd: Wi Fi Advanced settings does not work, slow to come up with menu then any attempt to change anything ipconfig FC. ?? ANyone else !

Thanks Karl

Any news on the app2sd situation? Are you going to remove it on this next release?

Sent from my HTC Desire
[Desire Android Development] 360nitrous:
i have a feeling app2sd was causing the problem with psx and other apps, i mean soon as adam mentioned removing it, suddenly psx works.

thats my theory and if i am wrong an i hope i am... hes got both of them running together (psx and app2sd) i doubt it tho :(
[Desire Android Development] zeussn:
Hope not because no app2sd or any alternative to that is a deal breaker to me (and I think to many other too).

I was just going to comment that I couldn't get NDrive to work, great news then if it's released! I would just like to add that the handsfree problem is still around and that even though I've set Nemo Player as my default player, whenever I press the button on my handsfree to Play/Pause, it launches the original player, so I've got two different songs on two different players :confused: .

Hi there,

This rom works very well, but I searched around this topic and didn't find my answer ...

Does the Led Notifications works on open desire ?

I didn't managed to :/
[Desire Android Development] zeussn:
Led notification works but only orange/green led.

Sent from my HTC Desire
[Desire Android Development] morcus:
Ok thanks I understand now, i'm colorblind so orange and green are the same colours for me :/

I read somewhere that blue colors and some others exists on the desire.

Is there any known way to use thoses colors for the notifications ?
[Desire Android Development] potter1984:
3.2.0 is where its at, adam is amazing :p expect a very sweet release very soon.....

I have just tested all the usual stuff and it's good very good.

3.1.2 drained battery like crazy for me, so I am downgrading to the 3.1.1 Kernel :)
[Desire Android Development] domparry:
That's so weird. It's nearly doubled my battery life.
[Desire Android Development] b6rt:
You mean by upgrading from 3.1.1 to 3.1.2 ?
[Desire Android Development] schiznik:
you could use one of the old versions thats got the dodgy code that caused the blue/pink leds to activate (from http://android.adamg.co.uk/bravo/roms/old/ ), but, you wont have the latest fixes/patches/stuff.

I dont know off the top of my head which versions had the broken code..
[Desire Android Development] peewster:
Strange, upgrading worked normally, but when i turned off my phone again it didn't boot anymore. Stuck at the HTC screen.

Rebooted into recovery did a full wipe (again), and it seems it's booting now.

More people having this issue with the upgrade from 3.1.1 > 3.1.2
[Desire Android Development] :
hi guys, ever since i have moved apps onto my SD card, I am getting an issue where the icons are dissapearing from the main page and i have to go into the market place and then download and run them from there, sometimes they appear when reboot, then sometimes they don't.. an idea? the applications are also always shown in the 'manage applications' menu within settings.

Cheer
[Desire Android Development] scaryzid:
Agreed.

3.1.2 drained my battery too, just 5 minutes of a simple Jewels game and it sucks 5% of juice and battery drain still fluctuates from time to time.

Plus I've never had a dead OJ before.

Downgrading to 3.1.1 too until Adam release his next excellent update. :)
[Desire Android Development] hankhandsome:
well i purposely waited until I was 100% charged before flashing the new update, and I wiped the battery stats when i did it as well (i remembered at last :D). did that yesterday afternoon at 12:30pm.

played some games, sent some texts, surfed the net a bit and made and took some calls.

at the time of posting, at 9:50am this morning, i'm still on 65% battery.

i honestly think i could get a couple of days usage out of a single charge at this rate so i'm very, very happy.
[Desire Android Development] Dafferen:
Could somebody please help me? I just bought the Desire and I want this ROM. I got it with Android 2.1 update 1, HBOOT 0.83 and 1.21.405.2 (and a SLCD screen?). What should I do to get this working on my Desire?
[Desire Android Development] andrewsoong:
Yeah my battery sucks since v3.1.2 as well. Waited all this time for good battery which I got with the previous release and then have it taken away by another update!

Hopefully v3.2 sorts it out.
[Desire Android Development] Captain Splash:
Hi guys,

is there talk of removing Apps2SD from 3.2.0?

I hope not, that is a real deal breaker for me. Can it be added as an optional patch (Like Leedriod did with his ROM?)

Read the threads that are sticked to the first page. It'll really help you a lot. Just make sure you read through properly on how to do it.

Locale

Hi,

I installed this rom and would really like to test it but for now i am back on Modaco's R8.

This because my languauge gets set to default Dutch. I would like to use English (Netherlands) but I don't have that option.

Would installing http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=743517 help to get the English (Netherlands) locale?

Or could I do something else?
[Desire Android Development] zAo_:
Any ideas on the crashing Camera? I have OD 3.1.0 with Radio .20.

Btw; The battery life on OD3.1.0 is superb! Thanks Adam.
[Desire Android Development] dakore:
I couldn't agree more :)

Charged battery at 02:00 PM yesterday

Today is 12:00 PM and I still have 40%. I expect it will last 'till evening.

Loosing approx 2% of battery per hour (mostly connected on wifi with push email and twitter syncing every 20mins).

I had 4 messages, a dozen of emails, and few quite short phone calls. There is also my daily dose of browsing (let's say 3-4h, I'm not sure, but I browse more than using the calls/messages) and Nimbuzzing (30 mins).

Updated from 3.1.0 to 3.1.2

Using 5.xx.04 radio (I have reasonable reasons why I'm using outdated radio so.. :p)

hey does anyone know how to restore market history?(downloadlist)

I didn't do anything but they just deleted by themselves(correct word? sorry my poor English ability)
[Desire Android Development] _RoD_:
I have issues with the battery as well on OD 3.1.2. I lost about 10% within an hour of doing nothing. The radio (I'm running .20) and "mobile standby" (Dutch language, so I don't know what it's called on the English version) both used up half of the juice in that particular hour. Seems to mee that this ROM version is draining the battery.

Any idea if this will be fixed in the next release? Or should I restore my backup of 3.1.1?
[Desire Android Development] pa.pn2:
download any app from market, delete it and all apps should remain....

worked for me...:cool:

if i check my power usage, also on my device android system uses more than 50%

i did a battery stats wipe after full charge

is that normal?

In korean htc community noone say how to do this you are very kind!

Compatability with 850Mhz UTMS

I am using a Telstra desire which has been rooted. Do I need to update to the latest radios in order to use Open Desire?

I am experiencing a boot cycle problem. Could the new radios do this? If so can I stay on the old 4.xx radios in order to avoid crashes?
[Desire Android Development] hankhandsome:
25 hours since unplug and with some solid, if unspectacular, usage, i've just dropped to 59% battery.

Boot loops are usually caused by not having an EXT3 partition on your SD card for A2SD.

Hi

Another excellent update Adam - I've been following & just upgraded from 3.0.5 to 3.1.0 & 3.1.2

I reset the battery stats this time so will need to see how it settles down. Moving from the default Orange UK ROM/Radio last time improved things a lot.

One thing I have noticed with 3.1 is that the touchscreen seems more responsive now - it seemed a little "laggy" on the previous version. Looking forward to the next installment :)

[Desire Android Development] ardsar:
I re booted phone 17 mins ago. Before a call, dialer was not showing in battery usage. However after a 2 min call, dailer is now showing 75%, with voice calls at 11%.

This cant be right?!?!

After a further 10 mins of no usage, dialer has now increased to 91%, voice calls 2%

Is this a source of the power leak or am i being miss lead by these figures? It only occurs after receiving a call.

Hello all,

I have installed few days ago 3.1.2 patch from 3.1.1 without any problem, I now share my experience and issues :

- battery seems to be as 3.1.1 (no drain)

- No problem with OJ

- headset icon doesn't appear (but headset works) like 3.1.1

- Green Light at 90% battery loaded (instead of 100%) like 3.1.1

- No geographical info in Google earth (come back to the menu when pressed)

- Google voice action (google search) seems to not work correctly (tested in english)

As usual, thanks Adam for this wonderful openDesire rom ... Waiting 3.2 !

Disable data-over-mobile-network connection at default

AdamG, do you think it is possible to disable data over mobile network from default so after i install new version of ROM it would be disabled?

You see i have no data plan at my mobile operator and it costs something everytime when i flash new rom, start the phone and until i manage to disable it manually (it connects immediately after start-up for updates etc.).

Thanks for reply and btw just a perfect ROM! :)

Ok, my fault. During the downgrade of HBOOT (.92 > .80) the radio was restored to a very old one. I'm at radio .20 and had no hard reboots since.

- I can only select 720p, is that correct?

[Desire Android Development] torwag:
Thanks I will try this. But maybe a way to keep them out of OpenDesire if not needed would be good. Adam is generating updates faster as I can download them and every new ROM would add them again.

How about a way to keep Opendesire more modular and let users choose what they want to install.

Saves bandwidth

Makes more people happy (the minimalists and the social-network people)

Opendesire with a decent package manager would be awesome.
