I have installed it too. Have you install the BlackEspressoMod BEFORE the transparent notification package?

I installed it in the following order:

BlackEspressoMod

TransparentNotifcationPullDown

ExpressoBar
[Desire Android Development] lept0n:
I did the transparent one first then the express bar no black express mod. Does it have to be all 3. Is your transparent notification working?
[Desire Android Development] LeeDroid:
Ain't tried it yet matey
[Desire Android Development] kaikura:
Can you make a nosense version?

Or an "flashable nosense zip"Or something?
[Desire Android Development] lept0n:
Thanks KB its working with the sequence you mentioned and its looking great :-)
[Desire Android Development] fuinhu:
guys, can someone explain me?
[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
Yes it is. Look at screenshot
[Desire Android Development] archie winnington-ingram:
are you having the same problem as me? my phone wont pick up any network from my sim. Its not locked as far as i am aware, and it is rooted with this rom and the radio... :confused: :(
[Desire Android Development] Degurney:
Once again

Is anyone having trouble with pictures??

I`ve taken 3 pictures now.. three times.. and when I connect up to the pc they aren`t in DCIM/100MEDIA

They are in the gallery but not in the folder. When I click on details.. there are numbered... but that number is not there in the folder listing ?

Any ideas anyone??
[Desire Android Development] fuinhu:
No, my Desire comes from Orange Spain and i dont want to update it if later i have to purchase another code
[Desire Android Development] muegge:
first off all - nice rom. the one with the least issues for me. well sort of until now - the htc mail app fc's on me. i decided to give the repair permissions thingy a shot. didn't work out. error running a privileged command.

i reinstalled busybox and whatnot but no luck. used nandroid to go back to the last known working rom (was one of the leaked ones). fix permissions then didn't work there either. rerooted with unrevoked and got lucky. flashed back to leedroid but again and couldn't fix permissions. rerooted again - but this time it didn't change anything.

so any mind boggling ideas that might help ?
[Desire Android Development] BrightSilence:
Sounds like that experience summarizes about 90% of this thread! Is it any better in real life? :)
[Desire Android Development] tsnake:
Hi thanks for the great rom and support. Just installed on my new desire, just a little question: why I can't disable keyboard vibration? Unchecked the option under "android keyboard" but still vibrate on typing..

I did a "wipe data/factory reset" and "wipe cache partition" before flashing.

thanks!
[Desire Android Development] LeeDroid:
Transparent mod as standard in 1.8a! Il leave the rest optional
[Desire Android Development] trenwei:
w/ Supercircle battery, what are the issues with it?

Also, to install, we just install thrrough Rom Manager just like we do for the rom/radio? Do we wipe install or backup?

Also, its ok to install as long as everything is booted and running right?

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] LeeDroid:
Working fine here. Is it disabled on all 3?
[Desire Android Development] LeeDroid:
No issue as long as you flash it after your 1st full boot
[Desire Android Development] scouseingib:
have just done the expresso mod install and all is good, well kind off. installed in steps mentioned and second part took a bit after reboot but just left it be and all good. Then on installing part 3 i lost the lock screen bar odd, reverted back to the old one. any ideas?

gona try just installing part 1 againt

yep thats done it back too straight lock screen bar
[Desire Android Development] TxDLoaD:
Where do i find those 3 files you need for expresso mod:

BlackEspressoMod

TransparentNotifcationPullDown

ExpressoBar.

Maybe i dont need them all. But many have used them.

Ive tried to find them using search but i cant find them anywhere.

Could you guys help me out :)
[Desire Android Development] scouseingib:
look for the post at 8:49am today
[Desire Android Development] cosmic76:
in the next update will put the call answering crawling to the left or right as a nexus in the (stock ROMs)
[Desire Android Development] brady1uk:
its like you read my mind :-) spent the last half hour trying to edit the apk to get the transparent mod but keep the standard battery. keeps reverting back to non transparent. Think i will just await on you :-)

Great job as usual Lee
[Desire Android Development] TxDLoaD:
Theres nothing there

EDIT: Lol I was reading it as pm

Thanks man
[Desire Android Development] BrightSilence:
Hey Lee,

I keep checking this topic daily to look for updates since I installed your ROM. Unfortunately as you know it's hard to keep up. It's mostly filled with questions that have already been answered, people complaining about that and people answering them over and over.

I noticed a few of the common answers were missing from the third post FAQ and decided to add them. I'm very new to this, so you might want to double check my answers, but they mostly come from the questions and answers I've seen on this thread.

I would also recommend mentioning the third post at the top of the first post. Saying something like "I would love to help you with any questions that have not been answered yet, but please check the third post with install instructions and FAQ before asking in this thread, most common questions have already been answered."

Anyway, I grabbed the third post and added some stuff. Just quote my post to grab the code with bb-tags and paste it into the third post if you like the additions. Hope it helps.

The Desire was my first android phone, my first root and your ROM was my first custom ROM and I like it enough that it's quite possibly the last for a while to come too. Thanks for the work and I hope the above saves you time to list every problem. I'm sure I forgot some questions, but I tried to at least answer the most common ones.
[Desire Android Development] csc2ky:
I do have an issue with the Touch Input keyboard messing up the dictionaries frequently. I use English/German ones and when I switch between them, the dictionary either stays with English or German or is in wrong assignment.

This does not seem to happen with the HTC_IME mod keyboard though.

Anyone experienced alike? I did a full wipe before I installed 1.8. With 1.7b I did not notice this problem.

Thanks for the great Job Lee.
[Desire Android Development] trenwei:
When installing with Rom Manager for Super Circle battery , do I select wipe data + flash or just backup and flash?
[Desire Android Development] LeeDroid:
Just backup and flash, you will kill it if you wipe (Bootloops)
[Desire Android Development] LeeDroid:
Magic! Thanks! :D
[Desire Android Development] Jarul:
what are you guys getting from quadrant, I got 1087 last time I tried, with v1.8
[Desire Android Development] Che123:
Just got 1125 - but i got tooooo many aps installed atm anyway. I believe no-sense roms get better scores...
[Desire Android Development] lmbd:
at every bootup and sdcard mount/unmount car mode starts automaticly, is this a bug?
[Desire Android Development] Jarul:
but before with v1.7b i was getting 1231 or something.

i have a friend that has the monaco rom and he got 1375
[Desire Android Development] BrightSilence:
1275 shortly after I installed. Not too many apps on it yet. I use a lot of the sense widgets though. Doesn't seem to have a bad impact. Haven't tried on any other roms though, but performance is great, so I don't care much about the numbers.
[Desire Android Development] Che123:
I think you mean modaco ;)

The score depends on so many criteria, so i dont know if you can compare that so easily...

signed :)
[Desire Android Development] Jarul:
yeah that's it modaco,

as long as others get scores around mine, that's fine, means I didn't do something wrong.
[Desire Android Development] alstrike:
That´s the truth I´m afraid...

I was on OpenDesire 3.0.5 (awesome rom) and got around 1400+ in Quadrant and 40 in Linpack, I´m testing Pays 1.9 and it just gave 1287 in Quadrant and 38 in Linpack.

I´ll check Lee´s 1.8 and Neo´s 5.0 and see if there is any difference.
[Desire Android Development] Jarul:
Wow how many roms do you get through.

I can't be bothered to change too much because its too time consuming restoring everything.

(cos I have bad experience restoring system data)
[Desire Android Development] Ronaldo_9:
this rom uses stock 2.2 kernel? can it be flashed with a different kernel?
[Desire Android Development] :
Anyone know where I can get the HTC wallpapers? I flashed the 1.8 rev.B and there no HTC wallpapers. Mmmm I might go back to the original 1.8
[Desire Android Development] kaneelias:
Please go easy on a noob, i installed the 1.7b version of this ROM over the weekend and see there is now the update. Can someone tell me the best way to update this ROM without doing a full wipe, can i use ROM Manager? or if i boot to recovery do i just select install zip from sd and select the 1.8 zip file?

thanks for any help.
[Desire Android Development] NonoWeber:
Sorry, but given the huge number of problems posted in this forum by people who did not do a full wipe, you would be strongly advised to do so when going to 1.8x.

I always do a full wipe when changing between ROM's and I've never had a problem.

Yes, it takes me about 10 minutes to put apps / settings back, but I'll bet it takes a lot longer to try and recover from a bad flash.

NanoWeber
[Desire Android Development] kaneelias:
Fair enough, as i said being fairly new at this i will take your advice as gospel, everything is backed up with Titanium Back up anyway, thanks.

Also not sure i fully understand how to flash the battery circle patch, is this done the same as flashing a new ROM?
[Desire Android Development] sobge:
Yes but after reboot, not at same time like u can do with radio ;)
[Desire Android Development] kaneelias:
excellent, thanks for your speedy response.
[Desire Android Development] NonoWeber:
When you say 'everything' I hope you don't mean system settings. IMO, you shouuld only back up app settings, and even then, it's sometimes better to reinstall app from scratch with new ROM.

Re the circle battery thingy, install it AFTER you get everthing else running, and don't forget the new Radio ROM.

NanoWeber
[Desire Android Development] Milamber:
Interesting, as I did the same thing as you in flashing with LeeRoid and reverted back to Pays ROM as I found Pays had more flexibility with customisation, looked better and offered about the same battery life.

Each to their own I guess.
[Desire Android Development] Fubarred:
Hi all, First post from complete noob here! Just rooted my Desire couple of days ago and put in this ROM.. took me around 3 flashes to get everything working .. was esp stuck with APN for a long time! long story short... fully on board with the development scene now :D

Thanks to dev for great ROM and all the helpful ppl posting here.. let me try it out for a week or two and if all is well, will be happy to make a donation! :)
[Desire Android Development] weretiger:
solution yet?

Hi,

Anyone has solution for this yet? i facing the same problem when i tried to Fix Permission via Rom Manager.

Appreciate the help thanks!
[Desire Android Development] NonoWeber:
Don't know where, but LeeDroid posted the fix for this. Just search his posts.

NanoWeber
[Desire Android Development] little pink:
Hi LeeDroid,

Would you mind considering adding Traditional Chinese back to the language selection list after the first boot?

I found that the chinese handwriting cannot be called out if Trad Chinese is not selected.

There is no problem to change the language to Chinese using morelocale2 but the handwriting never work. I have use LeeDroid since 1.3 and it seems 1.3b is the last version that support chinese handwriting. I understand this is a custom ROM and western people don't use chinese handwriting and you remove this language pack should definitely release more space to the ROM. If you decide not to add it back, would you give me some hints how to do it on my own (i mean use some dev tools to modified your ROM before flashing)

I am using 1.8 now and so far i found no big issue in this ROM including flashing the super circle battery, move app to SD, etc.

I got the following benchmark by quadrant standard
[Desire Android Development] mickliq:
Hope someone can help. I installed LeeDroid 1.8 and now it's looping at the boot screen as others have commented. How do I recover to my backup (sorry I'm a bit of a droid noob)? I've tried the recovery mode but I don't get the "2nd screen" with the red x to select a ROM? I've also tried loading fake-flash but seems to have no love either...?
[Desire Android Development] NonoWeber:
LeeDroid has commented on this. My memory's not great but it's something to do with setting the install option and whether or not you have an EXT3 partition.

Again, search LeeDroid posts for answer.

[Desire Android Development] vick82sydney:
1.6 to 1.8 advantages

what are the advantages of using 1.8 rom over 1.6 ??
[Desire Android Development] mickliq:
Right now I'm not looking to get LeeDroid working again - I just want to restore my previous stock 2.1 ROM. I have it on a separate SD card...
[Desire Android Development] NonoWeber:
1.6 = early FroYo Code. 1.8 = the real thing!

NanoWeber
[Desire Android Development] vick82sydney:
yes i understand that.. but anyone have any actual specific reasons its better ? eg... faster.. better battery.. features ?
[Desire Android Development] Ascenca83:
Hi

Are there still problems with the facebook server of HTC? Or should they be gone?

I think its because of that that on my notification bar there is always the sync symbol. I also noticed that it wont finish to sync all contacts with FB. There are always some contacts that miss the FB link.

Hope there is a solution for that.

Thanks,

Ascenca

Ps: I am on 1.8
[Desire Android Development] Pantabruel:
I can't install apps with the 1.8 versions, i know that i have to use modinstallocation to install them. So i launch it, set to internal, but when i download an app from the market, the phone reboots.
[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
What did the developers of Quadrant do to get such a low score for the Desire?

See screenshot in this post
[Desire Android Development] virtual_francky:
I had the same problem, was solved selecting External in ModInstallLocation, or by creating an EXT3 partition on the SD card.

But I do think that without an EXT3 partition there is a problem with the installation of application
[Desire Android Development] ZigmaDK:
Is it not possible to flash another kernel that supports setcpu?

I really hate the way all the 2.2 roms I have tried drain my battery :(

I tried to switch it to GSM only, but this just results in EDGE, which is not acceptable.

So now I have a shortcut to change from GSM to WCDMA when I need to go on the web.
[Desire Android Development] ardsar:
Does anyone have an issue with internet explorer closing occasionally. It's happened twice to me this morning.

How is your scrolling in tapatalk and the market - is it a bit "choppy".

Everything else works fine.
[Desire Android Development] atze09:
Same thing on my 1.8 version. Battery drains off so quick. With 1.7 i had no problems, did a full wipe! Does anybody know the reason of this issue?

Is this caused by the rom Lee?

Bye
[Desire Android Development] gucki51:
No

No. Did not the problem. work since the version 1.8 of the battery perfectly.

After five hours standby battery about 5% away. With version 1.7 I had problems b battery.

Since version 1.8 no problems more ..

Excuse me because of my English. google has translated translated
[Desire Android Development] Moe5508:
Wipe battery stats as well in Recovery mode...
[Desire Android Development] ZigmaDK:
Could that also work now? A while after I have flashed it?

Or would that be useless?
[Desire Android Development] musiccontrolsus:
Woo! that error was annoying the hell of out me. I was unable to get some awesome pictures on a drunken weekend because the flash just wouldn't work on the camera because of the hotspot.
[Desire Android Development] orlenok41:
In the russian keyboard mode, I get the exclamation mark whenever I am hitting the spacebar button. Any idea why? In worked perfectly with 1.6...

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] rkelbert:
BTW, do we need the swap file as well? if yes how much?
[Desire Android Development] orlenok41:
OK, apparently it's a known bug in the HTC IME 2.2
[Desire Android Development] raupe:
Hi LeeDroid,

congrats - your new 1.8 release feels very smooth ;-)

I miss only one thing - an link to the standard google phone application shipped with android. Is it possible to add it?

This is the only known way (by me) to paste phone numbers from clipboard to the a phone app. The HTC phone app seems to have no access for manual clipboard actions.

Thanks in advance!

[Desire Android Development] robbiekhan:
Stock Phone and Contacts app are in the ROM....look in your Launcher properly!

Only 1 bug and that's "Sim card changed" message when booting up.
[Desire Android Development] zikson:
I have same problem, it started with flashing leedroid 1.7. Updated to 1.8 and now on pays 1.9 and still entering car mode. On every call it starts speakerphone.
[Desire Android Development] tsnake:
Thank, my fault :rolleyes:. Was under "touch input", sorry...
[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
Only if you installed 1.8 as update over a previous version not wiping everything.

See 1st page:
[Desire Android Development] jj_glos:
Mine had this high adroid usage as well, but it has stopped doing that after a couple of days. I wiped everthing including battery stats when I flashed 1.8. Hopefully it'll settle down now and I'll get some decent battery life...
[Desire Android Development] gamliel:
great rom !!!

it is possibile that.....

first push in the trackbal is wake up

and the second push is unlock???
[Desire Android Development] robbiekhan:
Weird sure I did a full wipe!
[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
I do want this feature too :)

It was asked several times, Lee mentioned he will look into it.
[Desire Android Development] xavierdylan:
is it just me or has anyone else noticed that the phone establishes a data connection when on roaming, even if the 'Data Roaming'(connect to data service when roaming) is not ticked. ?
[Desire Android Development] raupe:
robbiekhan I took a screenshot from my launcher - I did a full wipe before flashing the existing pays 1.8 with lees 1.8.

[Desire Android Development] Sherpa63:
My battery goes from 100% to 90% in about 10 seconds on 1.8. This is the forst Leo rom with this issue for me, i am on Leos-roms since 1.3. BTW - great work Leo.
[Desire Android Development] indianajose:
anyone can tell me how to turn off the vibration of dialer panel? (when I make a phone call, then I touch the dialer panel)
[Desire Android Development] brady1uk:
That is standard HTC battery drain, there to stop battery over charging. An annoying feature
[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
It seems that this not ROM related. There are threads here discussing this issue. The Desire stops charging when it reaches 100%. If the battery drops down to 90% it starts charging again.
[Desire Android Development] deskmat81:
I've read that the framerate of the 720p videos with some custom rom is poor, like 5/7 fps vs 20/22 fps of the official rom. Is it the same with this rom? Thanks :)

I checked a video yesterday and it was 15fps

I'm having problem with the Wi-Fi Hot spot, can't connect to the phone.

Using the latest LeeDrOiD Mod V1.8 rom.
[Desire Android Development] bubu:
i'm te only one that the phone took about 30 min at first install and now at the second restart say:

loading...

it may take several minutes to complete, please wait

same at the first start up :(

is possible that every time i power up my phone it takes some ages?
[Desire Android Development] b6rt:
IMO, battery life is OK in sleep mode (<1% per hour). However, when I use the phone, I see the battery drain, like 1% per minute, terrible :(.
[Desire Android Development] SilverfoxUK:
MyBackUp

Ok, I just flashed 1.8 coming straight from stock Desire.

Followed all steps correctly incl' full wipe and reboots in between flashing.

All is good except for serious issue; MyBackUp will not install without rebooting Desire every time. What makes this even more annoying is that stupid boot up sound - thought that had been disabled?

I have tried ModInstallLocation on every setting - still wont install. Obviously I need to restore all my settings/apps with MyBackUp so this is a real bummer.

Any thoughts?
[Desire Android Development] KoTiX2:
Hi Lee, is it possible that you forgot to put the "market fix" in the 1.8 release?

I'm asking it because the market was very slow starting the downloads and after i installed the fix, it's working fine again.

Thank's for all your work and congrats for your baby:)
[Desire Android Development] b6rt:
Have you created an ext3 partition at the end of your SD card,

OR

chose Phone in ModInstallLocation app ?
[Desire Android Development] SilverfoxUK:
Thanks but I did state in my post:

I have tried ModInstallLocation on every setting - still wont install.
[Desire Android Development] DjLukeW:
Create ext3 partition then. It's been mentioned hundreds of times if you search
[Desire Android Development] DjLukeW:
Download mediainfo on your PC and drag the video file to it

[Desire Android Development] Muyfa666:
@Lee: Is it possible to use the icons from your rom with a stock rooted FroYo rom? If so, can you post them or something?
[Desire Android Development] SilverfoxUK:
Right.

Not sure thats fair...

I saw:

# Optional A2SD+ <<< Just add an EXT3 partition

# Froyo A2SD (use "mod install location" to choose where your apps go)

on the first page and assumed that optional meant optional. I don't really want to have to create a EXT3.

Not really optional is it then?

Maybe a list of apps that cannot be used with Froyo A2SD should be included in the 1.8 log would help users...

Thanks for work Lee, don't want to sound unappreciative.
[Desire Android Development] DjLukeW:
Aye but i think there are some issues with a2sd. A2sd+ is better anyway. Any reason you don't want to use it?
[Desire Android Development] SilverfoxUK:
Oh ok.

Not really, I didn't want to have to reformat/partition my sd card is all. seemed like an unnecessary extra step.

I'm guessing there are advantages to A2sd+ ? I will check it out now.
[Desire Android Development] orlenok41:
That's an issue with the stock HTC ROM. You can either use the phone in landscape mode or use HTC_IME_MOD (long press on any text box to activate it) as a fix.
[Desire Android Development] DjLukeW:
If its fat 32 then I think you don't need to format. Just use rom manager to create a 512mb partition swap 0.

Can anybody confirm?

Nice and easy
[Desire Android Development] ferrol:
Feature Request Cisco VPN support

Been fannying with the tun.ko module for the kernel of this ROM and still had no sucess.

Would be good if Cisco VPN group password support was built in to the ROM.

Great ROM overall.

Many thanks for your hardwork.

[Desire Android Development] raupe:
The RomManager utility does everything for you:

Wipe your existing data/partition and repartition the sdcard with the selected partition configuration as stated in RomManager.
