Battery life is not good lost 4% in 7 hours on flightmode. In stock Rom or MCR looses 1%. Great ROM but Adam should fix battery drainage.

If this is the case, how can I disable the LED whilst maintaining my notifications in the bar?
[Desire Android Development] chuzwuzza:
Just installed 3.0.2, and I'm having a bit of an issue with automatic brightness. It's WAY too sensitive. If I tilt the phone towards me so that the sensor cannot see the overhead lights, the brightness drops dramatically. If I tilt it slightly back (so it's pointing slightly more at the ceiling, and can see the lights), the brightness goes back up to a normal, usable setting.

I can be using the phone for a minute or so, and the brightness will ramp up and down significantly 3 or 4 times. This never happened with any Sense-based ROMs. Is there a way to adjust the sensitivity? Or at least, alter the minimum level so it doesn't look quite so obvious when it happens? When the brightness is dropped to such a low level, the colours become less accurate as the pinkish issue with the Desire's OLED screen shows itself...

Hello,

I've installed this great custom Rom for my HTC Desire this last week end and it works really great but I'm having a little issue with one of my apps : beautiful widget.

With this widget it appears that since the installation of this rom, the time displayed in the large and small home widget is not updated or rarelly updated. :(

When I add the widget in one of the desktop, the time is correct but then no further updates (or very few not regular ones).

Do you know a solution for this issue or have I just to wait for an update for beautiful widget ?

Edit : just see a new update for this app, hope it will work nice now. :)
[Desire Android Development] hankhandsome:
Ok, battery report ..

Unplugged the phone at 10:22pm at 100%. At 11:30pm I took a photograph of something to put on ebay. Plugged the phone into the PC to copy the picture across which took all of 30 seconds, so unplugged again still at 100%.

8:34am this morning, 10 and a bit hours later, obviously with zero usage due to being in bed asleep, and the battery has only just gone to 99%.
[Desire Android Development] Z2k3:
First of all, thanks for this godly Rom. The battery life is awesome, 26h with 3g on!

The new setting that allows me to customize notification bar is outstanding. No longer need to flash extra mod for black bar.

But there is 1 small issue here. 3.0.2 auto brightness is really sensitive. If you could tweak it, make it a bit less then we will have a perfect rom.
[Desire Android Development] khenderick:
Can you guys struggeling with battery drain check the radio used? I found the .08 is draining the battery while .04 isn't. Mayby that helps?

Might have missed this, but I seem to have turned on curved corners in the status bar? How to turn them back off?
[Desire Android Development] anatidus:
Have anyone tried to use new radio from official 2.2 HTC rom? How it is working on Your Desires? On my it is working quiet fine but I'm wondering if someone noticed any changes in good or worse direction ...
[Desire Android Development] andrewsoong:
Since when have apps restored themselves after a flash? Is this a general Google thing or an OpenDesire thing?
[Desire Android Development] anatidus:
Maybe You didn't do Wipe before flash?

I have restored my using Titanium.
[Desire Android Development] otijhuis:
Sounds like Google backup is restoring them. Had that as well. I usually skip signing in to Google on first boot and restore the backup from titanium. Although Google might work as well, not sure :)
[Desire Android Development] andrewsoong:
Yeah that must be it, it's a shame the app data isn't restore as well, one day... one day!
[Desire Android Development] hshah:
Thats not fair! I went to bed at midnight, with my battery at 52%. WiFi on but Sync Off, and by 6:30am it was down to 40% :(
[Desire Android Development] snyberjo:
i also had .08 installed now for a while, battery draining very high. Overnight lost arround 15-30 %.

now installed .04 and will monitor that..
[Desire Android Development] andrewsoong:
I've lost 4% in 40 minutes :( Something isn't right. No apps doing anything yet either.
[Desire Android Development] mlilldroid:
Black status bar

@dnlgee - Thanx, new version works fine with v3.0.2!
[Desire Android Development] hankhandsome:
I never use WiFi - when I rejoined Virgin I got rid of the router because it meant plugging in two devices. At least the old Sky router was all-in-one.

All i've got running, according to menu->applications->running services ..

digital clock widget

news and weather (don't use this widget anyway..so might look at disabling that one)

google services framework

market

htc_ime mod

In the minute or so i took to bring up that screen, and type out this post, the battery did drop to 98% mind, but then even that could be because i had manual brightness set to quite high (which i've now reset back down again).

Also, for what it's worth, my LED notification light doesn't seem to be on either - not sure if i've inadvertently disabled it, but i guess it could also give some weight to the theory that it causes the battery drain.
[Desire Android Development] otijhuis:
Re:

My battery usage is fine normally. Had major drain last night (100% to 81% in 7 hours) but it turned out to be because of email keeping the phone awake.

Use the phone and call *#*#4636#*#* , then check the battery history. With as much battery drain as some are having the phone is probably not going to sleep.
[Desire Android Development] gianton:
When on flightmode is the radio version I am using making any difference?
[Desire Android Development] pierreburel:
Noticed that too. Radius is too strong, it's kinda ugly...

I'm surprised by the direction taken by this rom with 3.0.0. Nice additions anyway.
[Desire Android Development] hshah:
Looking at the battery history, how can I tell whether it is sleeping or not?

How can I disable the notification LED?
[Desire Android Development] roakes:
Loving the notification bar options, but I find once it's changed to black then the likes of the vibrate icon etc when enabled are still black as with the standard white bar so they're barely visible, which option do I need to change to make them white?

Thanks

I can't say much so far, only running for exactly an hour now. Battery dropped only 1 % now.

so looks better atm. :)
[Desire Android Development] pipi002:
could make to support ext4?
[Desire Android Development] domparry:
I unplugged at 5 hours ago, and it's at 73% now. This is with new radio (32.43.00.32U_5.09.00.20). During this time I've made/received about 10 minutes of calls, and sent received about 10 sms's, and plenty of emails. Also browsed xda from the phone for about 5 minutes, and upgraded 2 applications. I use setCPU to overclock to 1113, ondemand, but downclock to 245 when the screen is off.

So that's about 5% per hour with my "normal" usage.
[Desire Android Development] hshah:
When you say .04, do you mean 32.41.00.32U_5.08.00.04?
[Desire Android Development] snyberjo:
that is absolutely correct.
[Desire Android Development] kurt666:
Anybody using SlingPlayer on 3.0.2 ? because i can't get it to work.

See http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=7350402&postcount=4237 for details.

Thanks in advance.
[Desire Android Development] hshah:
Cool, I will try it :)
[Desire Android Development] otijhuis:
If you go to the battery history then the top dropdown box should say something like "Other usage" and the first (colored) bar shows the percentage that the phone is executing something. If that's very close to 100% the phone isn't going to sleep. Btw, you should check this after you've had it off the charger with the screen off for a while. If you select something like "Wake usage" in the top dropdown box you can see what's keeping the phone awake.

Don't know the exact terms since mine is on dutch atm.
[Desire Android Development] hshah:
Have you tried the new .20?
[Desire Android Development] djmickyg:
Just noticed an issue with the pattern lockscreen. It may be a result of titanium transfuring settings from defrost as I just converted.

The lock screen could be bypassed by pressing anything on the screen. Once I reset the pattern in the settings it started to work again.
[Desire Android Development] gumbald:
Stuff like this normally happens when transferring between ROMs,
[Desire Android Development] :
hi,

is possible to have the default status bar ? i don't like the rounded borders...

thx
[Desire Android Development] snyberjo:
not yet. I'll be trying the .04 for a couple of days now. afterwards I'll install the .20.
[Desire Android Development] hshah:
Well I am on .04 now as the drain on .08 was terrible for me. Hopefully my Desire won't suck the life out of my battery now :p

What radio is everyone using?

I've just installed 32.42.00.32u_5.09.00.08

Has anyone tried the latest

32.43.00.32U_5.09.00.20

or the leaked

32.41.00.32U_5.08.00.04 ?
[Desire Android Development] tttommy:
Batterylevel at 13h after boot

13h later and it's now at 63%. The phone has almost not been used at all in this period, and as of now it says that it's usage are: Screen: 61%, Cell-standby: 14%, etc. Both wlan and 3g has been deactivated almost the whole time.

I feel like it's draining more battery than when I was running the 32.42.00.32u_5.09.00.08 radio, but I'm not that sure anymore. Guess, I'll have to test it some more before i draw an conclusion :)
[Desire Android Development] sbricout:
Hi,

What about "MMS > 10 Ko" issue ?
[Desire Android Development] ganjamu:
tttommy

Where you get the latest radio for the desire? I thought 32.42.00.32u_5.09.00.08 was the latest version :) .
[Desire Android Development] wmobr:
Excellent ROM Adam!

I'm still having issues with WiFi, after about 5 mins of screen sleep the WiFi seems to stay connected to my AP but no data passes through even after screen wake.

Still saying connected under Wireless settings menu though. Have sleep set to 'never'.

If I disable/re-enable WiFi it works again for a while.

Not having the problem on Sense ROMs (using your rooted 2.2 leak), but problem is also there on DeFrost ROM.

And it happens on 4 different routers I would normally use.

Appreciate all the work and time you put in!
[Desire Android Development] chuxsta:
32.42.00.32u_5.09.00.20 is the latest I believe
[Desire Android Development] kerzo:
I'm on 83% after 11 hours (7 of them overnight in bed!), this has consisted of 2G only data on, Twitter syncing, Google syncing, some voice calls, some SMSing and about 30 mins of podcast listening.

This is with the .20 radio BTW.

Is it just me or is it only the 4x1 music widget that takes you into the music app when you click on it? In other words, the only controls I have on the other widget sizes is to play/next/skip/shuffle etc.
[Desire Android Development] tttommy:
You can find it here
[Desire Android Development] Panpan69:
Thanks for the work, love this rom (fast , stable and nice look on apps). I just switch to it + black status bar (more chic imo)

But do you know where i can find the official weather and clock apps ?

I prefer the official skin...

Thanks in advance.

Panpan.
[Desire Android Development] sbricout:
If you tell about HTC Météo, HTC Clock, ... they cannot be used on this ROM (no Sense framework).
[Desire Android Development] cq.dude:
I tried SETCPU to rev it up to Max but Quadrant started acting weird, so I reset to default. From the benchmark, there wasn't much of a difference anyway.

Anything new with the new Radio?
[Desire Android Development] gumbald:
Is there some way of doing a battery benchmark between the various radio options available? Maybe we could get some proof of how much difference they make?

I have found that I can't lower the max CPU clock using SetCPU but I can tell it to use the powersave governer rather than ondemand which seems to save a LOT of battery.
[Desire Android Development] k3vinyang:
I have problem opening the sound setting. It keeps force closing itself....

Any idea?
[Desire Android Development] dnlgee:
If you use the powersave governor you'll have performance issues at it will always use the lowest clock speed possible, by default that will be 245MHz.
[Desire Android Development] kerzo:
Yes I noticed that however I am surprised at how well it actually runs at 245MHz, when I had my Hero it had problems even waking up at that clock speed!

Does anyone have any suggestions for my previous issues/comments:

Also, is there any possibility of the FM Radio being ported from Sense or a replacement app created?

Ok, to follow up on my battery report - i have the newest leaked radio as well. I've also got wi-fi disabled, auto-update off and i'm on 2G as the area i live in has a known hole with 3G reception.

I'll break it down from the point i unplugged at 100% last night in case some might find it helpful.

10:22pm - unplugged at 100%

11:33pm - took a photo. plugged into pc to copy photo across. still 100%

8:22am - 100%

8:45am - woke phone to reply to a post on here. down to 99%

12:43pm - 1 call 10 mins

12:54pm - 1 call 11 mins

1:15pm - woke phone to check. down to 90%

1:20pm - sat outside a 'coffee republic' to see if i could get on their wifi :). dropped to 89%

2:13pm - still at 89%

So I think you can look at it in one of two was really ..

1) in 16 hours, the battery has only dropped 11% with some minor usage

or

2) in just about 6 hours the battery has dropped 11% with some minor usage - since it was 100% at 8:22am and is now 89% almost 6 hours later.
[Desire Android Development] sgk2007:

well yeah. gonna keep an eye on it up until 10:22pm tonight though for the full 24 hour period.
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
Hmmm, sounds good to me... not getting such great battery life with .08. Flashing .20 now, guess we'll see if it's better. Should be though, since it's the official Froyo Radio, right?:)

[Desire Android Development] Orphee:
hello,

I'm searching bootanimation.zip from this ROM, can someone give it to me ? thank you !
[Desire Android Development] mle86:
Hi,

I just installed OpenDesire last week (still 2.3a). This is the first custom ROM I'm using, so please be patient with me ;)

So far I really like it. Everything is way faster than with that Sense crap. And the features I need I can add specifically through apps doing just what I need, instead of the bloated Sense stuff.

There is only one thing missing:

With HTC Sense, there were 3 modes for notification / ringtone (accessible by holding the volume up / down keys):

1. Sound on and vibrate (with various volume levels)

2. Sond off and no vibration

3. Sound off and vibration on

Now on OpenDesire (I'm guessing this is stock android behavior), there are only 2. Default is

1. Sound on, vibration off

2. Sound off, vibration off

Then there are the settings for vibration (always, never, only on silent, always except silent).

But no matter how you set it, the only other option that results in is

1. Sound on, with or without vibration

2. Sound off, vibration on

So everytime I want to switch between vibrate off and vibrate on in silent mode, I have to go through the settings of the phone, sms, mail and calendar.

And because I like my phone completely silent with no vibration during the night, and vibration only during the day, I would need to do that a lot.

Is there no easier way, maybe the same as with Sense? maybe an app that does this?
[Desire Android Development] Yannn:

htc ime & wifi/bluetooth

It depends on how you use the phone. As a Brit living in Denmark, I send alot of text messages in Danish and doing without the danish t9 tools in htcime would be a real pain. Luckiliy the talented jonasl's mod seems to work fine :-)

Great rom btw Adam, thanks.

I use my phone to stream netradio to bluetooth headphones and I've noticed that the wifi connection and BT won't work together. It streams fine over 3g but as soon as I switch to wifi, the connection stutters and dies.

I have a feeling that I noticed this on another rom as well so it might also be a hardware problem, but if anybody else has the chance to try it out I would be grateful to hear the result.
[Desire Android Development] vader hd:
No Data

I just noticed a bug in the data connection. It seems it only builds a connection to the antenna I was logged in, when flashing the rom. At least I assume that cause it would not connect anywhere but near my home. Think I remember someone expieriencing similar issues with wifi. Could the two probs be related in some ways?

Apart from that everything works fine for me. Flashed 1.2 over defrost 1.5d withought wipe. All Apps, data, configs and even the homescreen still there. Hope the official OTA will be as convenient;) Great ROM!!!

You need to use clockwork as that dont require updates to be signed.

If you edit a ROM then it will loose its signature so either re-sign or use clockwork recovery.

Some people get it, some don't. Try the rom and see. Just do a nandroid backup first so you can go back to your current rom if you need to.

As for updates, AdamG is having a few issues to iron out before he releases his next update.

Is it possible to include the HTC Dialer now that the official 2.2 has been released ? The only other thing that Sense has that I miss in the vanilla is music control on the lock screen.

You could take a look at an app like Locale or Tasker ... they can even take care of the switching, based on time or location...

You can enable this in the Open Desire settings - it's what convinced me to go Vanilla :)

Also, try Dialler One as a replacement for HTC dialler as it's pretty similar....again this was another aspect which made me ditch Sense :)
