http://android.adamg.co.uk/bravo/roms/opendesire_v1.1a.zip is up
[Desire Android Development] masi0:
cool! could u make it as an update?
[Desire Android Development] gatsu_1981:
Mmmmm.

Swiping between screen died for me after a while.

It still works for showing the status bar elements, but not for swiping between home screens.
[Desire Android Development] masi0:
did someone except me can sth about battery life and display battery usage?

isn't is that HTC customized its own display driver for amoled screen? (google has lcd) - maybe thats the issue?
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
OpenDesire 1.1a is up and available.

Keep the bug reports coming in, so I know what to fix :)
[Desire Android Development] Nekromantik:
The N1 has a AMOLED screen too.
[Desire Android Development] kosworld:
good works
[Desire Android Development] lupin85:
what about video cam rec... still a lot to work with?
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
I will be compiling an alternative kernel later tonight which I hope will fix it :)
[Desire Android Development] gatsu_1981:
Please take a look @ overclocked kernels, those would not be hard to implement ;)
[Desire Android Development] vrmp:
Everything seems to work for me (atleast the things in normally use).

Overall performance is good. Su works fine with 1.1a.

Haven't had any force closes so far.

Things i have tested:

E-mail (exchange 2003) syncs fine

Wireless works

3G works

GPS locks on quite fast

Some random google apps (sync,talk etc)

Would be nice though if you added the old fashion a2sd :)

Great work so far.
[Desire Android Development] cTrox:
Really.......? WOW.......!!!!!

sorry, I couldn't resist
[Desire Android Development] divvet:
ive got same issue, worked perfect last night, just tried now and wont work at all.
[Desire Android Development] Nekromantik:
I lost 30% battery in 4 hours today. So thats around 7% per hour.

Kinda high :(

I got FB sync (for notification of messages), twitter and email syncs per hour.

And not used the phone for much apart from 4 txt messages in those 4 hours.
[Desire Android Development] goges:
cool... played whole day ... so smooth..

just missing FM Radio... i think this wont be able to work until HTC Release ?
[Desire Android Development] masi0:
strange, mine phone is of for 9 hours now, about 1hrs phone talk, mail sync every 30 minutes and still 82% what so ever :)
[Desire Android Development] dabeeeenster:
I lost 80% of my battery in about 8 hours with very light usage...Something not quite right...
[Desire Android Development] Nekromantik:
did you do a wipe before install?

also noticed this ROM dont let you know of app updates or even auto update if you enabled it in the Market.

I gotta open the market to see I got updates waiting.
[Desire Android Development] xerosis:
Battery life is definitely not up to the same level of stock.
[Desire Android Development] goges:
oh yea? but why mine is work as google a2sd ?

is it because i did a no wipe upgrade from Deforst ? actually ..

i like the google one more then the classic one...
[Desire Android Development] Nekromantik:
defrost uses old skool a2sd too.

u sure u not using old skool?
[Desire Android Development] peewster:
Just installed, nice! Can't wait for the one with the % indicator.
[Desire Android Development] xchipx:
For me it's actually the exact opposite. I would estimate that I can use my phone about 30% more per charge than I could with stock. I think sense was quite the battery hog.

It mostly depends on how many and which widgets you have running. Also, some badly coded games don't stop draining the battery even after you close them.

Also, thank you AdamG for this rom. Been using it with only negligible problems since your first release.
[Desire Android Development] goges:
i am sure... because i didnt format ext2/3 to my new 8g card...

and i used the spare parts set it install to external ...
[Desire Android Development] xchipx:
I can't quite understand what you mean, but to clarify...

This ROM has both A2SD (Froyo) and A2SD+ (Community).

For Froyo's A2SD to work, the app devs need to declare the apps as movable to SD card. From my own experience, only about 1/4 of my apps could be moved to SD.

A2SD+ needs an EXT-partition on your SD-card to work. After that you don't have to do anything at all. It moves all your apps to your SD-EXT partition and creates a symbolic link to them. So the system doesn't realize that it has the apps on SD and will still show that they are "on the phone".
[Desire Android Development] goges:
so you suggest me use the A2SD+ instead of A2SD(Froyo) ?
[Desire Android Development] Nekromantik:
yes its much better.

With froyo a2sd I had 30mb free after 60 apps

Now with a2sd old skool I have 90mb with 60 apps :)
[Desire Android Development] PaulW21781:
Another thing I've just come across...

Afraid not...

# cd /data
# ls -l
lrwxrwxrwx root root 2010-07-01 12:36 dalvik-cache -> /system/sd/dalvik-cache

## cd /cache
# ls -l
drwxrwx--- system cache 2010-07-01 11:59 recovery
drwxrwx--- root root 2010-07-01 11:58 lost+found

dalvik-cache is still on the ext partition on the SD card.

Also...

The script 02cachedalvikcache doesn't work either... It creates a symlinked file:

system*

in /data/dalvik-cache, but it symlinks to a location which does not exist...

If all the system entries for dalvik-cache are to be moved to /cache. That won't work either... On a base "clean" install, the cache for just system items is 40MB, yet there is only 38MB free in /cache...

Ideally, it would be better to move individual items from within dalvik-cache which aren't system to /system/sd, and leave system items in /data...

Am I making any sense?? lol

I'll modify the 40a2sd script to do this... But I would advise you remove 02cachedalvikcache as it is broke. (and ultimately creating a dead file...)
[Desire Android Development] Nekromantik:
could you upload the script as a update.zip file so we can flash it and get it working correctly.
[Desire Android Development] PaulW21781:
Just working on an update now... About to test it...

System items from dalvik-cache will remain in /data, but everything else will be moved. There is just not enough space in /cache for the system items from dalvik at all...
[Desire Android Development] founti:
A short question from me :

the app sync isnt working for me. Defrost working just fine, but didnt seem to work on opendesire 1.3b ?

Is this a mistake by me?

I set one apn up without a proxy, then one with. Seems to work both on data and wifi. It's strange, as soon as I select an apn with a mms proxy I can't modify enter a blank wifi proxy until a reboot.
[Desire Android Development] kartoffel1212:
I have tested with 3.5.0.... Webflash Player doesn't work in the Browser :(
[Desire Android Development] BlackWhiteOne:
Where is the FM radio?

I can't find it.
[Desire Android Development] marinierb:
Do a search in this topic.
[Desire Android Development] BlackWhiteOne:
I am very glad that this ROM could support simplified Chinese.

there is an APN issue for CMCC.

it's not complete.
[Desire Android Development] BlackWhiteOne:
I could find nothing in this thread.:confused:
[Desire Android Development] ourfear:
use this apns-conf.xml, i use it for CMCC
[Desire Android Development] marinierb:
Search for "FM Radio" (in quotes).

[Desire Android Development] jasonlau83:
Does anyone have any problem with market update?

i can't update mine..

it appear as "downloading" and when my screen is off i think i got disconnected cos when i on my screen i saw the word "download paused".

am i the only 1 having this problem here?

tired facebook / web internet / twitter / foursquare but there isn't any problem connecting at all...

FYI: I'm on STARHUB from Singapore.. (My HSDPA is working fine.. tested that)

is there any other things i need to let u guys know to determine my problem?

*side note: i do use market enabler to connect as well..
[Desire Android Development] vipergrm:
Thank you for this excellent ROM! Phone is running really well :)

I cannot get the flash player to work in the browser. Is there some way I can get this to work?

Less importantly, do I have to switch on the overclock option manually somehow? Thanks for the hard work and great ROM! This is the best one I have used. ;)
[Desire Android Development] jasonlau83:
UPDATE:

I can download and install when using my HSDPA to update my market apps.

Sorry guys if the way I post is kinda spamming but I'm not really a forum guy and it's kinda new for me to post online..

After all.. I just feel that I need to contribute as well.. (maybe not that much but better than none ain't it?)

Cheers!
[Desire Android Development] hshah:
I love you Dude :D
[Desire Android Development] vipergrm:
Darn it! When on the net I am getting a blue box with a question mark when tyring to you view flash content. This worked fine on my last ROM. This is the only problem I have and I would really like to solve it. I have installed Flash 10.1 from the marketplace. Any ideas? Thanks!
[Desire Android Development] mikelward:
Java isn't working either. Maybe plugin support is disabled in the browser.
[Desire Android Development] blunatic:
will be on the 1000th side :D
[Desire Android Development] alturismo:
Flash

cant confirm, tested flash content here on gamersyde.com (watched F1 trailer)

working just fine ;)
[Desire Android Development] 22k:
Superuser still has FC, even when I try to update it.

Is it possible to remove the opendesire settings?
[Desire Android Development] blunatic:
very good version 3.5.2.

Clean, fast, stable

Test with new Radio is amazing

EDIT : YES !!!! 10000 Post is me :D
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
Ba***rd I wanted it :P
[Desire Android Development] alturismo:
SuperUser FC i can confirm on try to update SU

also updated radio to new version, seems all fine here ...

Wifi, GSM, HSDPA all working
[Desire Android Development] JagSem:
After an EPIC battle, after my first attempt, I've managed to d/l and root and flash and change radio with the end result of AdamG's 3.5.2.

Wowzers. This is absolutely amazing compared to the 1.19 I was running [/understatement] Thank you AdamG.

I dl'ed a 720p HD vid off youtube and it looks and plays brilliantly. I've set my cpu to 1.1ghz. It seems to be enough. You can do the same and show off which I'm going to do later on today.

vid here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HQ7R_buZPSo

DL using here: Click

Cheers.
[Desire Android Development] l00kk2047:
Glad that was helpful as I had to use my data plan instaead of my home Wi-Fi the last few days until I nailed it down last night :p

BR!

William
[Desire Android Development] blunatic:
you've invented the best rom

this is enough :D:p
[Desire Android Development] mr_dinosaur:
So far so good... But

So far so good with this rom... But, I found an issue that I have started experiencing on this latest update (3.5.2). I cannot browse on the stock browser or Dolphin HD when connected to WiFi. I know someone reported this before but I haven't been keeping up with the thread so I don't know if it was resolved.

However, when the browser is not dependent on the stock browser, i.e. Market and Opera Mini, internet works fine.

I hope a solution will come up soon but it's not critical for me because I hardly ever use wifi.

Before this (in case it is related), I used to have problems with HTTPS sites while NOT on WiFi and using the stock browser or Dolphin HD (but ok with Opera). It seems fixed now so I'm happy because I go to HTTPS sites a lot.

Oh and before I forget, now that I can browse HTTPS sites, Google Docs spreadsheet doesn't display properly. It's all distorted, if I scroll up, the spreadsheet goes blank, if I scroll down, it appears magically and looks proper, but if I try to get what was up at the top of the spreadsheet so I scroll up, the spreadsheet goes blank again. Again, it works fine in Opera Mini so I still have a workaround.

Oh and to the guy with FC on SuperUser, I fixed it by going into recovery, mount /system and removing the Superuper.apk file from /system/app. I rebooted and downloaded from the Market.
[Desire Android Development] The Asgard:
Superuser app crashing for me too.

New radio works really well, 3% in 8 hours overnight.

Field User Reporting of AdamG OD release for HTC Desire

https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0AnLgrTc8RnRBdHJRdzVOQno4RXR6OGdDS19kN3BtZ3c&hl=en
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
I'm working on incremental updates, similar to the HTC OTA updates, so I can provide whole system upgrades in much smaller packages.
[Desire Android Development] l00kk2047:
You can try my steps in post #9980 to see if it works for you ;). Good luck.

BR!

William.
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
I have cracked incremental updates, this means I can bring you many more updates more whole system updates quickly and not have to worry about bandwidth :)

the only downfall to it is that you must install updates in order, ie v5.2.0 -> 5.2.1 -> 5.2.2 if you catch my drift :)
[Desire Android Development] khenderick:
Most of the time I apply them one by one, since I love to have the bleeding edge versions. However, if not the case, will it still be possible for apply the main update + all patches in one reboot by adding them together in rom manager?
[Desire Android Development] hshah:
To be honest, a lot of the people on who use OD jump at every update anyway, so it won't make much of a difference I think :)
[Desire Android Development] alturismo:
thats an awesome idea :D
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
Yea but if someone moves from another ROM and I have 10 incrementals out it will be quite frustrating to get to the latest release for new users, I will make it a max of 10 incrementals between versions hops.
[Desire Android Development] ourfear:
haha, when 5.0 ?
[Desire Android Development] sgk2007:
Dear Adam,

It's great!

Could you pls look into camcorder auto focus also. I notice camcorder no autofocus esp. when taking near object, it really blurs/vague. But when I switch to camera and take a photo with the same distance (camera can autofocus), then switch back to camcorder, I can record good focus with this distance.

I hope you spend some time on it.

Thanks for suuuuuuuuperrrrr ROOOOOOOM.
[Desire Android Development] domparry:
That rocks!

Also, new radio working well here since last night.
[Desire Android Development] Zym0tiC:
is it possible to callibrate the accelerometer and/or g-sensor? The reason i ask is that my desire's screen rotates 90 degrees way to quick sometimes. I know that the stock htc software has some kind of callibration but i couldn't find it in OD?
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
Sounds good... :)

Question: Has the browser rendering glitch been "officially recognized" as a bug?

Bug: Rendering errors (disappearing images and text blocks, see here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=7760550&postcount=8604). Also check out www.chefkoch.de, has this issue in spades - just scroll around a little and note the text and pictures disappearing when you reach a certain spot.
[Desire Android Development] mr_dinosaur:
Browser over wifi works now

Thanks a lot for that. It looks like that new option called Proxy Settings under Wireless and Networks settings insists on taking the Proxy Server from the network's APN. Luckily I have an APN presetup without proxy, when I switched to that and made sure the Proxy Settings was clear it worked. Thanks man.
[Desire Android Development] lmps56:
No phone app?

I just flashed 3.5.0 on my Desire rebooted and then flashed 3.5.2 on it. When I press the phone icon in the dock I get a message saying "Application is not installed on your phone".

Also when I open Google maps navigation I get an error saying it's not supported in my location yet even though I live in Canada and it is indeed supported here? Thank you
[Desire Android Development] Lars8000:
Top paid apps in market

Is there any way to get the tap "Top Paid" tab in market, when i live in a country the don´t have access to Paid Apps (Denamrk)

when i where using SetROM a while back, it did show the Paid app tab in market, but now i only get the "top free" app and the "just in" tab.

Any ideas?

Since i flashed 3.5.2 i now get a heavy battery drain again :-(
[Desire Android Development] khenderick:
Try downloading market enabler.
[Desire Android Development] torwag:
Repro-system for OD

Hi Adam,

I just wonder, if you can incrementally update the ROM, how much difficult would it be to have an android app which collects all desired packages from a server (all incremental backups since the last update), merge them into a single zip and starting the update with that zip file.

I guess, in the same way you copy files during the update it should be possible to delete files or is this still an issue with the non-writable system folder?

Because deleting and copy files would allow over time to create a app which could be evolved to an real repro-system including fancy package management ala apt. You simply serve a very small basic rom of OD nearly app-free and everything else can be selected from a repository. With that we would switch from a Windows-like updating system to a more linux-like system. :)

Regards and congrats for your ROM
[Desire Android Development] Afck91:
Anyone else notice battery drain since the latest update?
[Desire Android Development] hshah:
I think I am getting confused... is the benefit of smaller updates just the bandwidth usage? Or is there a difference in the way you package updates or the frequency of release?
[Desire Android Development] ThamesBoss:
Also got heavy battery drain. 27% in 8 hours while sleeping.
[Desire Android Development] nht_max:
It's my case. Don't know why but although OpenDesire is no doubt a speedy ROM line, my device's battery when on OD has always been drained faster than on others, for instance LeeDroid line. Maybe that's due to the speed itself???:confused:
[Desire Android Development] Lars8000:
I have marketAccess installed
[Desire Android Development] kartoffel1212:
Sorry Guys i cant solve the Flashplayer problem.

SuperUser is crashing at me too (how i can delete it?).

Can anybody help me ? :(
[Desire Android Development] westernmg:
Great battery-live here, 3% over Night. With new Radio installed.

GPS Seems much faster now.

Great ROM!
[Desire Android Development] iinga:
You need superuser. And by crashing, do you mean FC's once then you reopen it and its fine? And that all apps that request su get it?

Edit: just saw your flash problem: go to get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ on your phone
[Desire Android Development] quake2005:
Dude, this totally worked for me! Now I can use WIFI again :D cheers
[Desire Android Development] mariosraptor:
i lost 7% in 6.5 hours. moderate usage with newest radio
[Desire Android Development] mariosraptor:
guys i got more 40Mflops at 1382 Mhz using linpack
[Desire Android Development] iinga:
I'd like to repeat again:

If you are having battery issues please check your sync status. Especially the twitter and facebook apps. Twitter app by default will sync every 15 mins. Other syncs will also sync under the hour.
[Desire Android Development] kartoffel1212:
Thx you for Help,

the Flashplayer request no su at install.

I can install the Flashplayer normally but i cant see Flash content in the Browser.

If i go to the Adobe URL.... then comes the Market and i can it uninstall
[Desire Android Development] BlackWhiteOne:
Got it,

thank a lot.

FM radio software belongs to sense?
[Desire Android Development] str355:
the latest radio with OD 3.5.2 has great battery life for me so far.

i've used 5% today with approx 2hrs of mp3 player along with surfing. normally i would have used 10-25% by now.
[Desire Android Development] tonyep:
Install ME, change to a market with paid apps. Then clear your market cache under settings/applications.
[Desire Android Development] mbroeders:
Which means that you will be able to play approximately 40hours of music with your phone!! That's more than a regular MP3 player and you can't even browse with those things. I am very curious to how long your phone actually lasts because I don't think this is very realistic. But then again, stranger things have happened... ;)
[Desire Android Development] atomfix:
Sorry but i went to bed about half 12, my phone had about 59% battery charge. I woke up this morning at 9 and it was "DEAD"......... chargeing it back to 100% now as i speak. what the hell made it drain that fast?
[Desire Android Development] str355:
if i ever have a day i dont flash something or connect to usb to copy files over i might find out, haha
[Desire Android Development] Lars8000:
Still don´t work.

Should it be ME or is MarketAccess fine?
[Desire Android Development] Skyle:
I experienced the same thing.
[Desire Android Development] GrandPuba2000:
I'm still on 3.4.2, have great battery times, 48 % left since unplugging sunday afternoon...

Mediate use, calling, browsing xda, email and sms...

This is since I installed set cpu main to 998 ( profile screen off set to 245Mhz, and for <40% 499Mhz max ( not reached yet though, so I should be able to push it longer )
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
v3.6.0 is having a total UI overhaul seeing as other unnamed ROMs have stolen the uniqueness away from OD
[Desire Android Development] jasonlau83:
Using CPU with min 245/998 and 245/245

now flashed to latest radio..

hope i can get a better batt life like u all..

it's not like mine is bad.. i can get max 30 hrs.. (consider better than when i'm on stock ROM..

but looking at u guy's battery life is making me drool!!
[Desire Android Development] ThamesBoss:
Nice. Looking forward to the new UI.
[Desire Android Development] mr_dinosaur:
Still no flash player

I had the su crashing problem too. All I did was boot into recovery, mount /system and deleted the Superuser.apk file from /system/app then I rebooted my phone and installed SuperUser from the market then I never get the FCs on Superuser.

Unfortunately, I am also having problems with Flash. I have uninstalled it, reinstalled it. I cleared data on the stock browser and dophin hd browser and then reinstalled flash to no avail.

Could it be you and I are the unlucky ones with this problem?
[Desire Android Development] atomfix:
I'm going straight back to DeFroST if this happens again tonight. Nothing was running in the background and i had setcpu at 245MHz sleep profile. And woke up finding that it's dead......
[Desire Android Development] 420p:
Flash was ****ed for me too. Tried everything and now I got flash running again by using the beta I got from here.

http://www.multiupload.com/W2MA1MM1HD
[Desire Android Development] kartoffel1212:
okay i can mount the system dir but where can i delete superuser.apk at recovery?
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
Go back to defrost it wont help you seeing as its been using the same code as OD since v2.6, its probably some poorly coded app you had in background.
[Desire Android Development] kartoffel1212:
Ahhhhhh !

Thx you very match :D
[Desire Android Development] atomfix:
I don't use live wallpaper's, i had plain old grass as the background. And even tho it may us the same code, At least i lost 4% with frost just though the night.
[Desire Android Development] 420p:
Congrats! So be happy with it.
[Desire Android Development] atomfix:
What's to be happy with? having your desire die overnight when it had 59% bat?
[Desire Android Development] 420p:
Be happy with Defrost. By the way: with background Adam meant background processes not your wallpaper...
