I stuck with the old 3.0.3 until today's update. I simply flashed the new one over the old one and everything is fine.
[Desire Android Development] Rolandx:
cheers for the fast answers ;)
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
Blue as well? :eek:
[Desire Android Development] dnlgee:
The blue LED works fine, there's just no way to change the LED color.
[Desire Android Development] wieben:
I cant get any colour at all, using Handcent to test, any ideas!?:confused:
[Desire Android Development] KaspaII:
I can not download OD 3.0.3... What´s happening ?
[Desire Android Development] Zinyal:
Hello,

this is amazing ROM, but i have one little problem. Im from Czech Republic and sometimes i need write mail/sms with diacritical mark e.g. ě, š, č, ř, ž, but when i press "s" for long time its only show § and ß. Do i miss something in settings or its not possible write in this rom with these letters?

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] ikarusbus:
Have this problem too, since v2.3 to 3.0.3, full wipe dont helped..
[Desire Android Development] techtex:
Hmmm, just tested LED on SMS notification (LED color can be changed in messaging settings) - only green and orange color. Other colors not working (blue, red, pink,...).
[Desire Android Development] derpeter:
oh nice :-)

I read something that google can controle the phone over gtalk protokol to remove

unliked apps and maybe more. I would assume that this "feature" wont be removed by removing the apps?

Tip:

I had some problems with the battery , only charges to 90% and lasts ony about 15h.

Today i have updated the latest radio version...great improvement.

Unplugged since 10h , normal use.

Battery left 67%
[Desire Android Development] Rolandx:
update on the screen brightness thingie.

i used my phone today for a few hours on manual 10% brightness, then (considering it was pretty dark) put it on auto, brightness remained the same. But when I checked JuicePlotter, the graph for the manual brightness time-frame showed scr 1/10 and for the auto it showed 10/10, although actual brightness was same.

Considering the amount of posts after mine and no reply on this particular thing, maybe you guys missed it and its helpful info about the bat drain problem so many have.

PS: if I use the phone at a minimal level(aka a few phones/day and thats it) then bat would last atleast 48hours(after 24 I still had 55%, starting from 92%, not full), so something IS draining :(
[Desire Android Development] tk1978:
Great rom so far, adam. No Bugs till yet
[Desire Android Development] 1_player:
you are disinformed my friend, actually I heard this rumor about Apple for ipads and newer iphones.
[Desire Android Development] hankhandsome:
my battery usage is all over the place at the moment. i've just managed to lose 3% in half an hour with zero usage.

checked to see what was running and i had facebook and google talk running, as well as the clock widget and the keyboard mod.

since i never use google talk, i may well try removing it ..

but then saying that, during the day, again with minimal use, i had fairly minimal battery loss overall.

really can't work it out ..
[Desire Android Development] dnlgee:
Just updated Facebook?
[Desire Android Development] Afck91:
.20?

Can anyone confirm that Blue LED works within Handcent with 3.0.3?
[Desire Android Development] zeussn:
Not working here. OD 3.0.3 updated today.
[Desire Android Development] Yzord:
I also noticed some batteryloss with the latest radio. OD3.0 and 3.0.2 gives me errors in contacts...i cannot import them...anyone know if 3.0.3 has this failure?
[Desire Android Development] umd:
Great rom. Thanks for your effort. You've done reaaly great job.

I've read somewhere that 32.41.00.32U_5.08.00.04 radio solves some battery problems. And after I had loaded this room I loaded that radio. There is no battery issue so far contrarily it's battery usage is really impressive. Besides I'm using LauncherPro and launcher doesn't work on background.

Thanks again Adam.
[Desire Android Development] hankhandsome:
Nope - hadn't touched it. I'd literally had the phone plugged into the wall on charge for about 3 hours. Woke it up to check and it said "Charged" on the screen.

Unplugged it at 8:05pm at 100% charge.

Checked again at 8:37pm and it was down to 97%
[Desire Android Development] rcourtman:
Has nobody else seen the bug in the browser where it loads two url bars stacked on top of each other?
[Desire Android Development] umd:
Yes, I've seen the same thing many times.
[Desire Android Development] osatek:
dnlgee asks, cause Facebook 1.3.0 is broken. The phone can't get into sleep mode anymore. The Facebook page is full of angry posts :p Maybe facebooks only phone was also b0rked so they can't test it :D
[Desire Android Development] dnlgee:
Not actually noticed a severe battery change myself, seems to be running as normal.
[Desire Android Development] deaglun:
Aha, that might explain some of the things i'm seeing. Since updating to the latest facebook, i've asked it not to automatically sync, but yet my facebook widget magically updates itself quite frequently.

Strangely with twitter (official android client), the widget wont update itself no matter how often i tell twitter to sync. i have to do it manually by opening the app and pressing the sync icon each time.

I'm still using Adam's 3.01 build. Gonna update to 3.03 today. Anyone else seen the twitter problem? I'm kind of assuming its a bug with the twitter client, not adam's rom, but i can't find anything on their site about it.

Aside from that, my twonky media server (android client) slows down massivly when my phone screen turns off. I've set wifi to stay connected when the screen switches off. Does the desire sleep or use less cpu when the screen turns off? Anyway to disable this so that i can use the xbox360 to play my music and film collection without having to keep the screen on? I've had this problem with all roms that i've tried.

Thanks Adam. I'm a big fan of what you've done for my phone.
[Desire Android Development] Apostol82:
Anyone with WiFi problems? When screen goes off WiFi is not connected but in the settings i choose the never sleep option.

At WiFi networks it is saying disabled, secured blahblah...and i have to click on it and enable it to connect. Why disabled?

I like so much this opendesire its clean and fast but this WiFi thing is annoying...
[Desire Android Development] otijhuis:
You could try a setCPU profile so that when the screen is turned off it has a higher minimum speed. Worth trying to see if that works.
[Desire Android Development] keiyuu:
Hi thanks for this great rom. Could you please ad the automatic text reflow in the browser like in cyanogenmod?
[Desire Android Development] umd:
Hi. There is a setting for this. Go to Settings-> OpenDesire Settings-> User Interface. Tick ''Reflow after Pinch in''.
[Desire Android Development] dnlgee:
Should already be included.
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
The blue LED was a bug in the code, the liblights was copied from the nexus untill it was rewritten.

I don't know whether people noticed but while the blue led code was being used the charging lights also didn't work correctly.

You can NOT have it both ways.

Question to people wanting this blue led, are you actually asking me to include buggy code in the release?
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
Sounds like you are using an old release, this problem does not exist anywhere in the 3.x branch.
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
v3.0.3 is only a patch please read the changelog for the answer to this question, its on the first page.
[Desire Android Development] Sector51:
yes latest one
[Desire Android Development] Apostol82:
AdamG thank you for your work for this rom.

Im using 3.0.3, the latest radio and i wipe before installing updates or roms. Should i format my sd card as well before installing roms? Thank you.
[Desire Android Development] Marreboy:
I am trying to remove the Facebook app using adb can someone tell me what I am doing wrong?? Open Desire 3.0.3 with latest .20 Radio...

C:\android-sdk-windows\tools>adb remount
remount succeeded

C:\android-sdk-windows\tools>adb shell rm /system/app/*Faceb*
rm: can't remove '/system/app/Facebook.apk': Directory not empty
[Desire Android Development] keiyuu:
Thank you, I'll give it a try, but the server seems to be down, can neither acces the Rom via link from the first post nor from the Rommanager..
[Desire Android Development] dnlgee:
adb shell mount system
[Desire Android Development] hankhandsome:
That would certainly explain why the phone is constantly running it.

I had setCPU but removed it - i don't really think it has any real benefit to overall battery life.

I'

I'd personally like the option to disable the LED, or even better still, have the option to just switch it on for certain things - SMS Notification only, stuff like that.
[Desire Android Development] Marreboy:
Does not work..

C:\android-sdk-windows\tools>adb shell mount system

mount: can't read /etc/fstab: No such file or directory

What state should the phone be in, when issuing these commands? Fully booted or in recovery or in bootloader? Now I am doing it from a fully booted phone. And Facebook process just keeps restarting every 5-10 seconds if killed. Maybe my problem is due to Facebook process is running or should that not matter?

Interesting though is that after issuing the rm command I can no longer see the Facebook.apk listed in /system/app/ but if I unplug the phone the app still starts. And after a boot of the phone the apk is there again.
[Desire Android Development] keiyuu:
Has anyone a mirror for the last version? Can't acces the server for some reason...
[Desire Android Development] dnlgee:
Would have to be in recovery. After it's removed load up the market and remove the updates.

Frozen Yoghurt

Hi Adam!

I have a big problem with your ROM(s).

Every time I try to wake up my phone, everything is so totally frozen like frozen yoghurt. Only battery out helps. Until next sleep/wake.

And this is happening throughout since 2.3. Slowly but surely I'm loosing my appetite trying this ROM(s) because.... well you know: BackUps..... :)

Any ideas?

FYI

I did a full wipe of everything that can be wiped before the installation. ;)

This is happening as well with the DeFrost ROMs. Maybe somehow related??

All Sense-Based ROMs don't have this issues.

But I want stock Android. ;)

Thanks and cheers
[Desire Android Development] dnlgee:
Do you install anything extra like themes? Which apps do you install?
[Desire Android Development] darkkeil:
No Themes! Only your own battery tweak (Percentage....)

Apps....:

Maverick lite

Kayak

Pakete

Twicca

ES File Explorer

3banana rama

barcoo

Barcode-Scanner

Dropbox

Dolphin Browser HD

doubleTwist

ConvertPAd

Google Buzz

Yahoo Mail

Movie Finder

Quick Settings

ScoreMobile

Springpad

Screenshot

Wikidroid

Wizard Memo

Rom Manager

Titanium

Astrid

That's all.
[Desire Android Development] dnlgee:
I can only assume it's app related as you've had it on every revision of OpenDesire and on Defrost.
[Desire Android Development] chifteur:
I have the same issue !

I can't leave wifi always up.
[Desire Android Development] darkkeil:
Funny/Sad thing is, that all this apps are all together @the same party. Doesn't matter witch Sense based ROM's running.

I've used ShadowFrost 1.4 for some time and didn't run in this issue.

Hmmm.....

PS: I got this problem also with 2.4a after a fresh install without any additional apps.
[Desire Android Development] iinga:
Have you retried a full wipe of cache and davlik cache etc?
[Desire Android Development] SkyWalker1726:
auto brightness doesn't work for me ...

Wiped everything and installed with latest radio
[Desire Android Development] darkkeil:
If your talking to me => Yes! Everything was wiped. And one time I've even wiped my SDCard. :)
[Desire Android Development] iinga:
Does it freeze before you've installed any apps or only after?
[Desire Android Development] darkkeil:
You can choose!

If I let the phone go to sleep (right after a fresh installation) it freezes over like hell.

If I install apps..... Same story over here.

But I have to correct something: It's not happening every time. Just often. Sometimes the first sleep 'kills' the phone. Then another time you can use it quite a bit before the 'timeout' start. Really weird. :)
[Desire Android Development] iinga:
You mentioned about wiping the SD card...did you wipe the external partition or just the SD card data?
[Desire Android Development] darkkeil:
Just everything that can be wiped with the phone/ClockworkMod and/or Mac.
[Desire Android Development] aunder90:
does anyone else suffer from the screen freezing??? wiped EVERYTHING inc dalvik.

What i did was (coming from sense OD)

Flash opendesire version 3.0.0 then flashed version 3.0.3 straight after and after a day the screen just freezes until i reboot.

i have also tried flashing version 3.0.3 after rebooting and still it happens??? Can anyone help me am i doin something wrong??? Thanks for any help you can give

[Desire Android Development] cq.dude:
If this has been happening since way back from 2.3 and with Defrost as well then I have to ask : is it your phone? Maybe hardware? (Do you have setCpu on, could be that too)
[Desire Android Development] cq.dude:
To answer your question: no, I do NOT want it if it was a bug. But since the hardware is capable of other colors, I would think is 'should' be a feature to keep in mind for future code releases?

Thanks for your hard work :)
[Desire Android Development] cezarL:
Actually .. it does. My wifi turns off after 15min .. I'm on 3.0.3 now, but it's been like this since I switched to OD at v1.6. Same with DeFrost, but there are no problems with Sense2.1 ROMs, so I kinda doubt it's a hardware issue.

And it looks like I'm the third person to report this, judging from the recent posts...
[Desire Android Development] webber2109:
how is the battery life of this ROM?
[Desire Android Development] cezarL:
It's very good for me with the latest radio. 1% drain over two hours in sleep mode, with data connection off, 1% per hour with 2g on, gmail sync and gtalk on.

I'm at 66% now, 20 hours since unplugging, with light use: a few calls, 3-4 texts, some browsing, about one hour of music (over Bluetooth). Auto-brightness off, btw, and SetCpu on.
[Desire Android Development] snyberjo:
update regarding battery draining and radio version

OK, just wanted to give an update on this. Since Monday I'm running on 32.41.00.32U_5.08.00.04 with OD 3.0.2.

Tuesday arround 04:00 PM: unplugged from charging 100%

Tuesday arround 10:20 PM: battery at 91 % with some SMS and phone calls (few mins)

Wednesday arround 06:30 AM: battery at 88 % so a drop of 3 % overnight, pretty nice :cool:

Wednesday arround 08:00 AM: battery at 85 % with no action to the phone?! lost in 1 1/2 h as much as overnight....

Wednesday 02:00 PM: battery at 82% with some SMS and a bit of surfing the market with WiFi on, update to OD 3.0.3, started facebook

Wednesday at 04:00 PM: battery at 72% nothing special done, battery history telling me that facebook kept the phone from sleeping, logout out from facebook and force quitted it

Wednesday at 20:00 PM: battery at 52% with a few mins phone call

Thursday at 07:00 AM: battery at 25 %, nothing done, battery history telling me time spent without sleeping 12h 58m, particial wake usage, nothing special, FB on top with a millimeter of % usage from yesterday, the phone just didn't sleep....

Usage was blasting in the begining on Wednesday, starting FB was then exausting it, but also when it was force quitted, the phone was draining away.... but not as bad as with FB in the background...
[Desire Android Development] vertti:
+1 keeps fading randomly from time to time.
[Desire Android Development] otijhuis:
If the battery is draining and you can't explain it in the history, check if the OJ/trackpad is dead. That would stop the phone from sleeping but doesn't show up in the history.
[Desire Android Development] snyberjo:
that's it m8, thx. rarely use the OJ so didn't recon, but its dead atm... :)
[Desire Android Development] xivius:
I had an issue with DeFroST and my BT Carkit .... after 5-10 minutes, the connection was lost ... is this also a known bug in this rom?
[Desire Android Development] gianton:
What's OJ and how can I check if it's dead?
[Desire Android Development] snyberjo:
OJ = optical joystick / trackpad ;)
[Desire Android Development] otijhuis:
Go to the application drawer for instance and move your finger over the trackpad. An icon should light up showing it's selected. If it's dead nothing happens. BTW, trackpad wake will still work so clicking isn't affected it seems.

A2SD+ works :)
[Desire Android Development] sonderschalter:
Hi Adam,

I´m following your thread quite closely, and I´m really impressed about the work you invest in your development, especially your permanent follow-up regarding improvements is highly appreciated!

Two things remain, the first is the "white noise issue", you wrote (above), that it is on your to-do list. Can you tell me a rough estimate, when you´re going to work on that?

Second thing: could you possibly add your ROM to the ROM Manager?

Again, thanks for your work!
[Desire Android Development] JUZZIE87:
I searched but...

Does the kernel support OC ?
[Desire Android Development] Desiret:
Great! Thanks for the hard work!
[Desire Android Development] masi0:
AdamG - Great work man! Everything works as usual - mean great! Camcoder is working as well as A2SD :) Keep up good work man!!!

[Desire Android Development] masi0:
As well as fast Market - best rom ever :)
[Desire Android Development] daesimps:
I'm seriously thinking of giving this ROM a bash, but have a quick question first.

Does the Exchange Active Sync work in this ROM, and if so does it support only 1 account or multiple accounts?

Thanks

[Desire Android Development] vivmar:
Is this rom with a black statusbar? if not ,there's a working mod for that?
[Desire Android Development] Spidsen:
I would love to see your work in ROM Manager too!!!!

I keep following your thread, but i don't have a chance to try it out, because my internet is down at the moment :-/
[Desire Android Development] thyttel:
Yes please add this ROM to Rom Manager
[Desire Android Development] masi0:
But people - why?
[Desire Android Development] EddyOS:
I tried my existing one with it the other day and it went into a boot loop but I'll take a look this evening (unless someone beats me to it)

EDIT: OK, here's the one I'm using at the moment in my MCR r20 FroYo ROM. I've also included a backup incase it fails to work

You need to use Fake-Flash as the update isn't signed
[Desire Android Development] NoMercyWWE:
I have to admit, best froyo rom used so far - only issues i have are google setup wizard wont sync (skipped and did manually ) and of course led problems

Thank you very much AdamG
[Desire Android Development] jstegeman:
ActiveSync works fine. It appears to let me add more than one account, but I don't have another account with which to try it, so i cannot comment on that part

white noise is really annoying :(

Please fix it.

[Desire Android Development] Degurney:
Been using this rom for about a week. Had terrible battery usage. Lost 31% last night with screen on low, wifi off etc. Worst I've had with a rom ( except maybe leedroid ) full wipes etc when flasging. Also, in battery usage the screen is mental. 68% it was yesterday! I can take it off full charge and within 2 minutes I loose 1-2% !! Not sure what to do.
[Desire Android Development] CJ900RR:
3.0.3 works good, but I have 2 small issues so far.

1, the new Facebook, when I press "Friends" it says after a couple of seconds "Not able to download Friend-list, try again later [null]". Everything else in the app works and I have almost 200 friends on Facebook, if I search for them in the app, they shows.

2, this problem I also had in 3.0.2, fast battery drop. When checking history it says that my e-mail uses up 70% of the battery! I have one POP3-account and one Exchange-account in it that are set to check for e-mail every hour.

Has anyone else had this?
[Desire Android Development] derpeter:
I think not. That apple has this "feature" is well known and because of DRM implementation in the app store a very logical (but not muche liked) decission.

Here is an artical about the andorid REMOTE_ASSET http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010/07/02/google_android_install_asset/

I think it would be nice to at least deaktivate this "feature" in openDesire if possible
[Desire Android Development] kolaf:
I just installed the latest open desire 3.0.0, immediately followed by 3.0.3, coming from one of the official 2.2 patched ROMs. Full wipe. My phone is no longer able to connect to my jabra Bluetooth headset. It has no problems pairing, but it is not able to connect to it as phone or media devise. Have never had problems with this headset before, on any other ROM or even on previous (sub 2.0) versions of opendesire. I am of course running the latest radio.

Suggestions? I briefly looked through the last 10 pages of the thread without it being mentioned, so I do not think it is a common problem?
[Desire Android Development] gianton:
Thank you guys!

So if OJ is dead will affect battery life?
[Desire Android Development] deaglun:
I can confirm the 15 minute thing. If i start playing a movie through twonky mobile server - it plays fine on my tv (via xbox360) for 15 mins after my phone screen turns off. It then cuts out until i turn the screen back on. The performance of the twonky server drops almost as soon as the screen turns off (if you're browsing through the files), but video streaming seems fine as long as the screen is on when you start playing the vid (and for 15 mins after). I've been monitoring it on my router and it does seem the wifi connection drops completely after 15 mins. I haven't had a chance to set a profile in set cpu but i'll try it when I get home tonight and see if this helps.

EDIT: I've just realised what I've said isn't very helpful. I'll do some more scientific testing when I get home tonight. For what is worth on the battery drain topic: I unplugged my phone at 5:30am this morning, it's now 08:46 and i'm at 88% battery. Ive had the screen on a few times but haven't really done anything. Gmail syncs but nothing else. Seems consistent with the stock 2.1 build to be honest. I've always struggled to get a full day..
