I'm following these steps:

-Turn off you phone.

-With pressing volume down button turn on your phone.

-Select Recovery and wait for the black screen with the exclamation icon.

-Plug USB cable and run Recovery-Windows/Linux/Mac (it's in the ''rx-desire-root(-alt)'' folder).

-Do full wipe(factory reset, cache, dalvik cache vs.)

-Format your SD card and create ext3 partition (recommended. don't forget to backup your files)

-Flash OD zip file.

-Reboot.

-And you might calibrate your battery if you want long battery life.
[Desire Android Development] Cactus42:
I must have missed something - OD is the smallest, fastest and closest to vanilla Android ROM out there, the only difference I can see is the OD settings and the Galaxy's launcher (in 3.6.0). Most people stick Launcherpro or ADW on anyway over the standard launcher so it makes no odds.

Oh and you got it the wrong way round - TouchWiz is only 1.4Mb, the stock launcher is 4.6Mb so stock is more "bloated".
[Desire Android Development] georgemv:
Adam switched the patches format from all-inclusive to incremental.

You need to install patch 1 before patch 2.
[Desire Android Development] str355:
Touchwiz works for me then, cant say i've ever used the stock launcher. launcher pro is the first thing that changes everytime i flash a rom.
[Desire Android Development] gianton:
I have done this already (installed patch1 first).
[Desire Android Development] Cactus42:
Same, Not sure about the TouchWiz myself - a little too Iphone like for me, but as the default launcher can't be removed smaller is better :)
[Desire Android Development] gianton:
I also install launcherpro after the first boot, but now using the galaxy s launcher and find it super smooth and fast.
[Desire Android Development] andrewsoong:
Ah, cheers, did not know that.

In that case, briiing it on!
[Desire Android Development] codeglomeration:
Good luck with OD Adam. I appreciate all the hard work you put into this. Unfortunately I also feel that this ROM started moving in the wrong direction. Or at least in a different direction than the initial promise of being a lightweight, stable ROM. That was my selling point for choosing it. However as of lately, the stability of OD is really bad. All sorts of things start breaking left and right all the time it seems, and updates seem to be redundant because updating to fix certain issues ends up breaking things that worked before. It just turned into a ROM that simply doesn't work.

A lot of focus is being put on overclocking and pushing the performance to the edge, in the detriment of stability, and I just feel it's turning OD into a gaming ROM. Which is not bad per se, but I believe you have to take into account what the priorities are for OD. For me stability and having a device that is not behaving weirdly constantly is the most important.

Like I said, I appreciate your work,you don't owe anybody anything and I'm not criticizing your work. I'm just providing feedback.

Good luck with OD!
[Desire Android Development] scaryzid:
Tried the pre-release 3.6.0 just now.

2 words come to mind: Slow and sad.

For me, it's just super laggy and slow, even on the home screen. Applications drawer was smoother just by a little. Flipping from screen to screen, I noticed that it slowed down the phone by 1 to 2 seconds.

Sad because I thought OD was Vanilla Froyo in it's pure form. The Galaxy S look is a super turn off for me. Probably because it's trying too hard to look like an iPhone and the reason I moved to Android is because I want to get away from that stiff and rigid iPhoney look.

Oh wells, reverting back to CM6 Nightly. :rolleyes:
[Desire Android Development] crfrank:
OD 3.5.2 - Camera crashes a LOT

Been using various incarnations of OD for a while now - love OD 3.5.2 apart from one thing - the camera app crashes a LOT (video is way more unstable than stills but happens with both). Using the latest radio. Tried upgrading from 3.4.2 first, when camera crashed a lot ofter that tried full wipe and reinstall - same problem.

Anyone else seeing this?
[Desire Android Development] andrewsoong:
Pretty sure it's called a pre-release for a reason...
[Desire Android Development] scaryzid:
Lo and behold,

Super slow and laggy for me, in my testing of the PRE-RELEASE. :cool:
[Desire Android Development] umd:
I'm using 3.4.2 and it's great. I think you can try it or 3.5.2. They're really fast and smooth.
[Desire Android Development] scaryzid:
Yup, was using those a couple of weeks ago and they're blazing fast. But compared to the PRE-RELEASE, very very disappointing. Have you tried flashing the PRE-RELEASE? :)
[Desire Android Development] umd:
No, because everyone says that it's very slow right now. I thought you didn't try OD before, just tried pre-release. So I suggest 3.4.2 or 3.5.2 to see real OD. Sorry :)
[Desire Android Development] Peikko:
Reading all this comments about the upcoming repräsentiert makes me kind of scared. Im not interested in ocerclockingn. All i want is an stable, lightweight ROM.
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
I dont see why people are saying I am straying away from the original concepts, I replaced 1 apk in a pre-release, Launcher2 was 4MB, TouchWiz was 1MB, anyway I am removing pre-releases from the site because of this, I will keep everything closed from now on until final.
[Desire Android Development] marinierb:
I'm sorry you feel that way, Adam. You shouldn't mind so much the folks who just don't get it. It's probably a very small minority.
[Desire Android Development] kartoffel1212:
Know anybody was:

GSM auto (PRL)

doing at standby and at phoning ?
[Desire Android Development] quake2005:
Very satisfied with 3.5.2 so far. All i have to say
[Desire Android Development] akxak:
Don't worry, you will never satisfy everybody.

For me, a pre-release is a beta. A beta is a test version with a high risk of instability or any kind of problems (and I leave the latest working version on my sdcard to flash it in case of such). The pre-release cut me off from the mobile network whenever the screen locked (we had that problem once), so I reverted to 3.5.2. But I have no reason to complain here, just because I knew about the risk and nobody forced me (except my curiosity) to try the pre.

Adam, with every version (even with the pre's), you will get feedback. Some people like a step, other's don't. I do not care about the included launcher (as I use Launcher Pro and its included widgets).

I appreciate stable and realiable versions and I am aware that quick releases without a big betatesting bear the risk of bugs on early adopters. People who do not like to take the risk can simply wait until others report their experiences.

So, folks, calm down a bit and stick to a friendly language. For a developer spending a lot of time, some critics here are not really nice. Let's better motivate Adam to continue to work on OD.

Regards,
[Desire Android Development] flakz0r:
Keep up the awesome work Adam. Changing the default launcher doesnt change anything on OD, most people are just overreacting as usual :)

Cheers
[Desire Android Development] andrewsoong:
So do you think v3.6 will be tonight?
[Desire Android Development] Popple3:
Sounds good to me. Like many others, I just run LauncherPro anyway, so less bloat in the OS = win!
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
I would like to remind everybody of the reasons for me wanting to change OD in the first place, after my original concept for the ROM being copied I wanted to make OD unique.

Yes I will do 3.6 tonight, it will be stock everything so everybody is satisfied and I will be cleaning up the ROM some more.
[Desire Android Development] peewster:
My oj keeps quiting on me.
[Desire Android Development] hankhandsome:
Any ides on the bluetooth issue ? posted a few pages back - can't seem to send anything, but can receive fine ..
[Desire Android Development] daffie:
Then put some wodka in there dude! :D
[Desire Android Development] peewster:
Lol
[Desire Android Development] zoltrix:
1) I'll give that a shot, thanks!

2) I meant that i saw no change even though my profiles should have kicked in. I had the little widget on my home screen, and the max was always wahtever the max on the Main SetCPU screen was and not the max given by the profile.

3) I saw a setting that i had enabled and now that i disabled it, ill see if theres a change.

4) Cool

5) Would the recovery affect the touch screen?

6) nice link. thanks again!

I had all my settings set to 50% priority (battery <90 70 and 20) and the Screen Off profile i had set to 100% priority.

P.S - Also, i now removed SetCPU and so far, ive seen no lag and no freezing of my homescreen. So well give it a day and see waht happens. If its setCPU then im definatly doing something wrong.

P.S.S - Also, OD 3.6 looks nice, but i hope there is an option to set back to stock Android. I mean, touchwiz is just a skin right?

P.S.S.S - I know the OJ = Optical Joystick. But why call it an OJ and not a track pad? Ive never heard the term optical joystick lol
[Desire Android Development] kartoffel1212:
YES !

[Desire Android Development] twist1234:
Tried Sense again for the first time since OD 3.0, cant believe I bothered! So good to be back on OD!

Keep up the excellent work Adam and please dont turn it into another Sense clone. Think everyone whos running this wants a clean, fast, stable rom and thats why OD is so great.
[Desire Android Development] :
ok.

finally my problem with sdext *seems* solved.

clockworkmod 2.5.0.7 is incompatible with OpenDesire using ext4 or ext3.

the sdext partition is not properly mounted by the app2sd. provably by a drivers conflict.

i dont known.

reverted my recovery image to clockworkmod 2.5.0.1 and no more problems atm.
[Desire Android Development] Evil_enc:
hell yeah :-)
[Desire Android Development] fridlack:
Hi AdamG, great rom, i want to thanks you for all your effort and the amazing rom you are sharing with ours

And now i have a question, is MMS problem fixed with 3.6? Everytime i try to send an MMS it stuck in sending forever... checked APN and everything is ok.

I read about more ppl have the same problem
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
Here is the impending changelog for v3.6 when I release it
[Desire Android Development] andrewsoong:
Boom, hope it's up before my bedtime.

Cheers.
[Desire Android Development] Yopsi:
Perfect Changelog I must say... :D sneaky
[Desire Android Development] kartoffel1212:
3.6 "runs" in this thread ?
[Desire Android Development] zoltrix:
Do you mean back to stock android or it has a touchwiz like theme?
[Desire Android Development] daffie:
Haha...same here, tried 2 Sense rom's today after running OD for a couple of weeks now...that was a real exercise in futility (starting to repeat myself here...). OD just runs so super smooth and I love the fact that it runs a 1550 benchmark on stock 998Mhz, and I still have the option to either OC to 1267Mhz and have a lightning-fast Desire (1700-1800 benchmarks), or UC to say 768Mhz while still getting a 1350 benchmark...with some battery-saving!!!
[Desire Android Development] daffie:
FAN-TAS-TIC !!! Can't wait to flash it...many thanks Adam.
[Desire Android Development] GrandPuba2000:
So we wont get the new touch wiz launcher Adam?

Still would be nice to save some space with a lighter launcher...

What if you put in both, the launcher2 and touch wiz launcher, people can always shoose the launcher which they want to use when they push the home button to set the default...

Otherwise use home switcher or some other tool.
[Desire Android Development] fieryriver:
What an awesome rom I love that there's no HTC sense crap. Don't get me wrong I like sense but the pure android experience is so much better IMHO. Thanks to the developers!
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
Hi Adam,

I think you're forgetting one important thing here: Most people love the ROM because it already is unique. It's the perfect blend between having everything as stock as possible and getting additional features which would be difficult if not impossible to add to an already installed ROM manually - something that no other dev has managed to do so far... Things like integrated Apps2EXT (can you believe that CM6 doesn't have that integrated? Hah! :p) the new GPU drivers, Bluetooth HID support... they're all great features, and unlike CyanogenMod, you seem to be able to add them without adding all the other overrated cruft :)

You really don't need to change anything to make OpenDesire better IMO. All it needs is a little polish (mainly just small bugfixes), and it's already THE best ROM available for the Desire. No other ROM has lasted more than an hour on my Desire before I needed to return to OD.

I'm sorry we sound so negative when talking about your changes - obviously you won't be losing "customers" due to just changing the launcher, but I suppose we're just worried about future changes in the grand scheme of things. It was pretty much the same story with the keyboards...

If you're planning on making a more unique version of OpenDesire, it might not be a bad idea to feature-freeze this one and iron out the bugs, making it a perfect vanilla-Android ROM and providing a second platform for fans of things like the Samsung Launcher and the Droid X Multitouch Keyboard.

Personally, I could hardly be happier - with the exception of a few bugs that I would like to see fixed, the ROM is already as feature-complete as I could ever have wished for. You've really done a great job taking vanilla Android to a level that leaves users wanting for nothing. So thank you... once again :)
[Desire Android Development] Peikko:
Does that mean we wont see the HTC camera in OD?
[Desire Android Development] kartoffel1212:
Yeahr +100
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
No TouchWiz wont be there, neither will any other addon, Im back to stock the way people want it.
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
What would we need it for? Adam's already given us a camera that more than matches the capabilities of the HTC Sense Camera app. :)
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
I'm working on that separately, I will make a flashable zip that will work on any ROM if I succeed with it.
[Desire Android Development] b6rt:
Thank you Adam for your decision ;) Love OpenDesire the way it is now.
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
Does it have any features that haven't already been integrated into the AOSP camera app you've included with the latest OpenDesire verrsions (have I thanked you for that yet? You've turned the Desire into a camera that can take on a lot of the cheaper point and shoot devices head on)? Other advantages?

Or are you just porting it because you can, and people seem to want it? In case you can't tell, I'm pretty envious of such skill ;)
[Desire Android Development] alexis_p3300:
i also love od as it,thanks adam

ps what's your battery cons when using wifi?i have 1% down every minute,in standby 1% per hour
[Desire Android Development] exclaim:
AdamG - Thanks for a great ROM!

With regards to the launcher, I deleted the launcher2.apk in the 3.5.0 zip and replaced it with a launcherpro one and re-signed before installing rather than having two launchers. Hope this helps those who don't want to have to more than one launcher on their ROM?
[Desire Android Development] superprelude:
I, too, like HTC Camera, it's the best, IMO.
[Desire Android Development] madman_cro:
personally i would like you to keep 1384 kernel because its stable for me. anybody who wants to lower it use setcpu anyways so its not problem.
[Desire Android Development] ephumuris:
Good luck on that i hope you figure it out :)

I'll be stealing it for my Defrost mods if you do it...with proper credits of course :P
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
v3.6 will be out within an hour, just recompiling a final time.
[Desire Android Development] andrewsoong:
I think I'll try this. Not resigned a rom before though. How did you do it, I've found a few links but the method varies with varying results.

Problems with phone connection

Hello Folks!

!!!I hope this is the right thread to post problems with OpenDesire in, if I'm wrong, please let me know or tell me where to post it!!!

First: Wow, thanks for creating this neat ROM! I installed it yesterday on my Desire, and I'm very impressed and also happy to not use the default android with this "Sense" application anymore.

Ok, now to my problem. According to an online tutorial, I first installed the new version 32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2 of RADIO. Then I installed the current OpenDesire v3.5.0 from this thread.

Everything worked as expected, but then I found out a terrible problem: With my SIM card inserted, the phone asks me for my PIN. Then it connects the phone, I can call people and can be called. But after a while - yet, I did not found out why - the connection is lost. The signal sign on top contains a small "x" telling me that the connection is lost. This always appears after a while. When I reboot, it lets me again enter my PIN, connects, it works - again for a while. And I also don't know how to reconnect without rebooting, it doesn't tell my anything about what error occured.

Any ideas or help? Maybe this is not really a problem with OpenDesire, but I'm not sure.

Thanks for any help!!

I suspect tomo morning 1.4 will be released :)

Looking forward to it.

Does it support ext4?

It would also be nice to have an ocuv kernel..

This two things are the only thing keeping me from going from DeFrost really.. :)

Is it just me or doesnt the "quick-dial" work? (where you just write the name of someone in the dialer)

Tried searching through the thread, but could not find anyone else with the same problem.

Any solutions to this?

Sorry if my non-leet searching skills overlooked someone else asking this question.
[Desire Android Development] divvet:
I dont think the stanard android dialer has that feature, i may be wrong,

the other phone app (sorry cant remember name) that is included in alot of roms, you need to set this in the settings to work.
[Desire Android Development] r3xxx4r:
Looking forward to next build FRF91

Opendesire uses the ShadowFrost kernel. I'm guessing if you just flash the OCUV patch from the ShadowFrost page you should in business ;)

Hi AdamG ! I just want to tell you that your rom is really perfect ! Fast, fluide, no bugs... PERFECT !

Don't listen all this stupids troll, do it like you want, it's your rom, not ours !

However, I got only one question: how do you activate the wifi tethering ?? It don't work for me !! By usb too... I just use the wifi tether from 2.2 in the menu but it don't work... Can you explain me if i'm stupid or if it don't work in OD ? ( and that will the only bug from OD for me)

Thanks AdamG and "Bonsoir" from France :) (sorry for english)

Adam if you manage to port the camera from sense then you are a legend. the camera is great now but the sense one has face recognition.

but regards to the somewhat rude comments imo. well look how we dealt with kali- richard and gatsu_1981 you know your fan base is backing you so ignore those few nagative comments and tbh, half of them didnt know what they were talking about.

great work as always
