Quick question: When flashing nightly without a wipe, do I have to flash Gapps again afterwards or do they stay?
[Desire Android Development] gianton:
No need to reflash it, all your apps and settings remain as is.
[Desire Android Development] gues42:
great nightly today!!
[Desire Android Development] danbrown162:
so how do i disable vericatiion in recovery then?

sorry, i just think it would be better as a barebone system and let people install what they want. :p just my opinion.

Thanks for the support!
[Desire Android Development] stanleywinston:
Nice work with the latest build Kali. The new light sensor settings have made this rom complete for me. Flashing every day means I never see the oj issue and now I have settings galour to fiddle with for the screen.
[Desire Android Development] Kali-:
"real" /system still ro

amazon mp3 is not part of the rom, but update process backup and restore it (if present)

there is no real benefit to remove this stuff from gapps, i never read this annoying request on all other cm6 thread

gapps have nothing to do with rom and anyone can remove it from their installation, so please stop this ot here

if it's hard to remove, bug htc
[Desire Android Development] szymonunion:
Hello,

I just installed cm_bravo-08102010-013101.zip and > 5 min and nothing more than white screen with htc :/

I had 08022010 before... interesting... of coz w/o wipe.

Any solution? reboot again? ;)

edit: no progress after reboot... what's the hell???
[Desire Android Development] wingphil:
@gatsu, suggest maintaining a faq in the first post for this, other common ones like leds, a2sd?
[Desire Android Development] wargy:
If you want Amazon MP3 to be removed, you should first remove it from gapps, then from ROM (if), and then wipe and flash :)

I hope this question isn't too stupid, but since amoled saves quite some battery with dark colors, wouldn't a black status bar be convenient ?

(by the way, it saves around 5mAh, not much but still something)
[Desire Android Development] beidl:
The round, white status bar on CM is like its brand. Change it and it would be blasphemous. ;)
[Desire Android Development] andycted:
I'll wash my mouth with soap then...

Since I actually didn't even notice it was different from aosp, open desire, etc
[Desire Android Development] DashingGentleman:
Yes, but if you promise to keep it hush-hush, you can go into interface tweaks of the cyanogenmod settings and customise *all* the colours of the status bar and pull-down to your liking ;)

Takes some playing around because most the changes need a restart to show up - generally for a blackbar, replace all white parts with black and vice versa, with a couple of exceptions. There is an option to save and restore the statusbar tweaks from a file but last I checked it was broken in CM6.

Damn, I wish the OJ bug would go away. Such a minor hardware change and it's so much trouble - I don't mind the joypad dying at all, but it breaks all the music controls in spectacular ways.
[Desire Android Development] andycted:
I'll definitely keep it hush hush, since I was so confused to play with every single setting but those two ! Thanks, now it's perfect. I wish the super circle battery would come to nightly builds, though.
[Desire Android Development] beidl:
LOL, I'm not a noob, I know CM much better than you think, and yes I knew about the setting. ;)

What I meant was releasing CM with a black status bar as default would be blasphemous. ^^
[Desire Android Development] DashingGentleman:
Sorry, I should have quoted antyced really - I meant to help him out here, not imply you were wrong :)

In other news, the new advanced settings for the automatic brightness filtering are awesome - now everyone can have it just how they like it. I couldn't stand the default behaviour of the brightness scaling, now it's brilliant. The torch app/widget is also nice - loving the super bright option. I seriously couldn't use another ROM after getting used to all the little goodies that CM brings.

Flashed 08102010 nightly last night with DT A2SD mod, moved dalvik-cache to SD as well.

< 12 hours of usage, I am experiencing 4% per hour drain on standby. Summary of apps running in bg are:

1) Gmail sync of 4 accounts (calendar, contacts, mail)

2) cnectd messaging app (historically, this had never been a drainer)

3) On 2G networks only

4) LauncherPro as default launcher

Have rebooted and am continuing to monitor.

OJ hasn't died so far.
[Desire Android Development] szymonunion:
Hello,

what a pity - no new nightly. Fortunately phone is working - nandroid used ;)

Still I do not know why cm_bravo-08102010-013101.zip is not working.

When should I start logcat? After I will start recovery and then adb and logcat ?

Maybe I am doing some wrong way?

- adb shell

- mount /system

- cd /system/xbin

- ./logcat

Anything wrong? ;)
[Desire Android Development] X-dark:
Just curious, why no space gain ?

Also an other way to remove them is to reboot into recovery, connect with adb and then mount /system.
[Desire Android Development] wargy:
no nightly today... hmmm... I'm getting suspicious :P
[Desire Android Development] DashingGentleman:
Don't get too excited/worried - the automated build from source just threw up some errors ;)

No space gain, because the /system partition is unnecessarily big on the Desire and it can't be written to, so any empty space on it is wasted - not gained. ROMs often offload non-essential system apps onto /data, where all the other apps live for ease of removal, but this produces useless empty space and wastes the very limited /data partition. People can still modify /system easily through recovery+adb - there are even GUIs to do this afaik. The complaints bout this are even sillier in the case of CM, where most extra /system apps come from the google-distributed GApps package, which is not made or maintained by cyanogen and not part of the ROM.
[Desire Android Development] Ireas:
just do "adb logcat"

or from the sdk use "ddms"
[Desire Android Development] jokeyrhyme:
Technically there's no space gained from deleting items from /system because it is read-only. You can't install anything there while Android is running (due to HTC's trickery) so there's no point. You aren't freeing this space for use by your other applications. If Android says you have 20MB free, it will still have 20MB free after you delete everything in /system. /system just doesn't count.

Where it does count though, is with applications that install services and otherwise try to be activated without your interaction. Google Voice was an example of this, and I think that's why it was removed from the package (because part of it was active even for those of us outside the US where the service is unavailable).

I think there are definitely reasons people should boot into recovery and uninstall APKs from /system. If they know for a fact they aren't using an application and don't want it to hide in the background. Another reason is to reduce unnecessary clutter in the application Drawer. This is Android so we all expect to be able to tailor our phones. :)
[Desire Android Development] szymonunion:
Ireas,

adb logcat from PC is not working ;) I read that many people had this problem and there is no solution.

I will check ddms and let know.

A little advice

Hi folks, I'using CyanogenMOD 6 RC1 and very happy about it. Are these Nightly as usable ? Maybe there is a "more stable" release that I could install instead of RC1 ..... :D

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] stingerpl:
From my experience every nightly between RC1 and today is at least as stable, as RC1.
[Desire Android Development] kokwei:
In terms of features the nightly is very far ahead from RC1. I moved from RC1 back to the nightlies after facing instability issues on RC1 as well so I'd say if you're not happy with RC1, feel free to go ahead with the nightlies.

Since I'm on 08102010 nightly, I am confident to say that it is stable enough for day-to-day use ......... ;)

Happy flashing!
[Desire Android Development] kokwei:
I had a reason to remove VoiceDialer.apk from /syste/app as everytime I connect my bluetooth headset, it fires up the VoiceDialer and it attempts to call someone based on the surrounding noise/conversations. It was getting very annoying so in the end I had to remove it for good.

@DashingGentleman and @jokeyrhyme: thanks for your answers. Of course it make sense. I don't know why I didn't realize that /system was on another partition...

If there is so much space wasted why not resize the /system and the /data partitions ?

Hello, little help please ?

Had 08/10/2010 on, from a full wipe, applied darktremor a2SD as mentioned previously in the thread and not much else, installed lots of stuff, used all day.

After a nandroid backup, I installed today's nightly without wipe and ended up stuck on white htc screen. Entered recovery, applied A2SD again and it booted but was stuck in bootloop.

I'm restoring the nandroid backup now, is there anything wrong I'm doing ?

[Desire Android Development] sangreal:
Does anyone know when 720p video recording available in the nightlies?
[Desire Android Development] adancau:
It's been available for some time.
[Desire Android Development] sangreal:
Where do you specify the 720p setting? Different from app in the stock rom then?
[Desire Android Development] wargy:
You have to select Custom, then MPEG4, and then 720p will be available to choose.
[Desire Android Development] sangreal:
I don't get those options on the app after selecting custom.
[Desire Android Development] wargy:
For me, the 720p settings is not visible until i select MPEG4.

Only then I am able to select 720p.

I just noticed that when I set "high" instead of "custom", 720p is preselected (something that wasn't happening last time I checked).

Running 1008 nightly, OJ still dies.

I believe this is the most challenging bug to fix on the Desire hardware.

Kali, mind to shed some lights? Other than the dmesg is there anything we can send you which will help to root this out?
[Desire Android Development] X-dark:
Strange. I'm running the 0808, have an uptime of 72 hours and the OJ is still running fine.
[Desire Android Development] typhex:
so what exactly happens to you OJ? never had that problem. you cant use OJ for nothing after it dies?

[Desire Android Development] lsmgeb89:

[Desire Android Development] ephumuris:
@Kali- CMparts has the ability to change text colours. Is this information saved to a file somewhere? So that we could edit it to make the rom start with a black bar and white text etc.

I guess i'm asking where the default values are and where the new ones are saved.

Thanks.
[Desire Android Development] Pyr0x64:
you can export the colours to an xml file (cmparts_ui.xml) by using the option under cm settings>user interface>tweaks extras
[Desire Android Development] Murd0ck:
Running 08072010 with an uptime of 68 Hours and my OJ still works perfectly.

would someone describe when and how the OJ dies couse something else than the ROM alone must be interferring with the OJ to make it die.
[Desire Android Development] ephumuris:
Yes but upon a wipe does that get reloaded or do you have to import manually? I don't mind would just like to eliminate that step :)

Optical Joystick :)
[Desire Android Development] dz-015:
I'm running the latest nightly and have never had a problem with the Optical Joystick.

I guess the problem only exists in some environments.
[Desire Android Development] gianton:
Is auto brightness being too dimmed, fixed in the latest nightly as in defrost 2.6a?
[Desire Android Development] kokwei:
I've had 48 hours of OJ uptime before ... apparently it is really intermittent.
[Desire Android Development] kokwei:
I've been trying to find out what conflicts with it with no joy.

It just dies randomly.

Like I said, perhaps Kali can shed some lights on his low level findings so we can cohesively help contribute more logs/info for him to fix it?
[Desire Android Development] andycted:
Retried last nightly, same behavior, stuck aT htc screen, tried to reapply a2sd, boot loop...
[Desire Android Development] otijhuis:
Same here. Sometimes it dies after a few hours and several times a day. Longest time without dying was when I disabled setcpu. Lasted 28 hours without dying then.

Been checking dmesg and such as well but sofar things seem really random.

As for what happens with the optical joystick like someone asked...you can't use it for movement/selection anymore when it dies but clicks are still working so trackpad to wake isn't affected for instance. When it dies the phone stops sleeping and causes quite a bit of battery drain which is the biggest problem since I hardly use the oj.
[Desire Android Development] andycted:
Anybody having the same problem: it seems the part in the custom a2sd zip that deletes stuff is the problem. Just remove everything that regards DATA and it should be ok.

EDIT: no, still problems
[Desire Android Development] serverless:
Is it just me or the data on/off button on the power widget doesn't work anymore in the latest nightly?

Hi Kali-

Will we have any chance of having FM Radio in the near future?

cm6 have a fully customizable brighness

i don't think, there are some ppl on N1 forum who are working on it with poor results (with FM u loose wifi, and is not much stable) and work only on Sense Rom

this is not a very easy task :(
[Desire Android Development] turbo100:
Can somebody try and explain something for me.

I usually just flash the nightly's but I have decided to do a factory reset, full wipe including cache and delvic. I then flashed the 0812 with no problems.

Came to enter my wifi passwords, 1 for home and 1 for work but they were already entered, both of them :confused: As I understand it, doing a full wipe should return my desire to a stock phone.

Does anybody tested the latest Nightly?

Which ROM is better CM Nightly or Open Desire?
[Desire Android Development] otijhuis:
I find the nightly roms are great and very stable. Open Desire is great as well. Both tend to be fast and stable. Atm I'm sticking with the CM nightly builds though.

Both still have the trackpad / optical joystick death problem though.
[Desire Android Development] andycted:
So, after many failures to update to latest nightly, I decided to wipe before upgrading, since I had lots of problems with darktremor a2sd+.

But before I do that, I'd like to know what would be best to do in order to avoid problems subsequently. Should I then use the simple "desire_froyo_a2sd-signed.zip" that I've used on other occasions ?

Had anybody used a2sd+ scripts and managed to update nightly ?

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] fakts13:
i've used the darktremor on the nightlies without any problems. i use the patch script found somewhere in the darktremor thread to patch the init, then flash the patched zip, then darktremor zip, then gapps if needed.
[Desire Android Development] DashingGentleman:
I have used Darktremor for weeks and have been updating without wipe frequently. I just flash CM6, then flash the DT apps2sd update.zip.

Remember that flashing without wipe is a luxury and things can go wrong - pretty much every ROM maker will tell you to try and update without wipe but do a full wipe + reflash before reporting problems. If anything goes wrong, do a wipe or a nandroid restore and then try again. For example if you try updating CM which previously had a2sd set up but then forget to then flash the a2sd update, you will be stuck at boot. I always make a Ti backup and nandroid before flashing. It's also worth making an external copy of the backup every now and again, in case of SD card corruption.
[Desire Android Development] andycted:
Thanks, but I know everything you said about wiping, I also know this is nightly development. But I also have been told that people without dark tremor a2sd managed the update without wipe and I was stuck in bootloop, I assumed that was the cause.

Did you use the one that was modified and posted on this thread ? Named RC1-CM6 ? Or straight RC1 from his thread ?

I also managed to modify the script and make it work, but as soon as I flash something else it goes into bootloop. Tried about 20 combinations
[Desire Android Development] gapone:
Hmmm... i'm using darktremor rc2 zip and a2sd is working fine without those patched versions. Are those patched versions really needed bcos i thought they were until i installed original dt rc2 update?
[Desire Android Development] DashingGentleman:
I use the dtapps RC1-CM6 update.zip that was posted in this thread - it means no need to modify of the init, just flash the update. Works great.
[Desire Android Development] andycted:
Well, that's my problem. If there is something that is preventing me to update to new nightlies without wiping, I'll consider updgrading now and then and won't wipe right now. Since I used your same patched version and had this problem, it might come down to some applications/configurations I use which will keep me from upgrading even in the future.

Thanks for notifying, I might try wiping if I find some time, although moving between nightlies one can probably blindly restore almost all titanium backups.
[Desire Android Development] jokeyrhyme:
I've not wiped since I started using CM6 nightlies (back in July). I'm using the official distribution of DarkTremor (linked in my signature) without any patching and with no problems.

Whenever I flash the next nightly, I flash DarkTremor again. Once the phone has booted up again, I run "a2sd cachesd" to move Dalvik-cache to external storage, and then I'm done.

I've never experienced a boot loop on this Desire.
