[Desire Android Development] scar45:
Hey guys, I was talking about SetCPU in this thread before, and the main reason why I want to use it is to force the MAX speed of the CPU down to 245mhz during Screen Off/Standby. I am not 100% sure that Android/HTC kernel does this automatically, so that's why I wanted to make sure SetCPU was working correctly.

Lee stated that in v1.8a, Perflock would be Disabled on boot, so that's great. I have never had any problems after disabling manually, so I think it's safe with this kernel + ROM combo.

Side note on a couple of issues I've experienced after using 1.8 for a few days:

NOTE that these are most likely bugs in the official RUU / Sense + FroYo release, because I don't think Lee would have changed anything to cause them. I am sorry for posting this in this thread, but I didn't know where else to, and as far as I'm concerned, it will be my Desire ROM series for life, so to keep track of issues that can hopefully be fixed is the main reason.

(Possible FroYo/HTCSync Bug) HTC Sync v3.0 will sometimes not recognize my Desire, and I have troubleshooted down to the point where I find it to be running "adb.exe" upon connection, but not killing the process after switching USB modes. This causes the issue because after HTCSync starts up clean, adb.exe is not running and it detects the phone fine. For any subsequent 'sync' modes (i.e. after switching to Disk Drive, Charging, etc. then back), it does not get redetected. I found that after manually restarting HTCSync, (or just killing the 'adb.exe' process), the PC recognizes the phone again.

Has anyone else experienced something like this? Hopefully there will be a new version of HTC Sync 3.x soon.

Sometimes during USB connecting (in car, desk charger, or PC) I will get a Force Close by "com.fd.httpd" (HTC Sync - FDhttpdSvc), but it appears to restart itself and not cause any issues other than annoyance. I would think that these first 2 issues could be related to HTC Sense + FroYo bugs from the official RUU, so hopefully updates from HTC will stabilize it

Having a Calendar/Event entry in Outlook with a Reminder Time of "0 minutes" will cause HTC Calendar to believe there is no alert, and will not beep or show a notification. Thought this would be important to some as it took me a good 30 mins to figure out what was happening.

Again, the above are most likely issues from the official RUU, but I thought I'd discuss them in case others were experiencing similar problems. I did perform a FULL WIPE of everything before flashing 1.8 as well.

Otherwise, everything about this ROM has been amazing!!

+ Great battery life

+ Stable and fast

+ No GPS issues

+ No Wireless-N issues

Which leads me to my final question...Lee, when you release 1.8a, are users of 1.8 able to upgrade without a wipe? I am sure the answer is yes, especially since it's now based off of the official RUU, but I just want to make sure the upcoming 'fixes' in your announcement won't bugger up what appears to be working fine for me (Wifi-N / GPS / A2SD+).

Sorry for the massive post, but just trying to do a braindump before I forget, and miss a chance to contribute my findings.

Cheers, and thanks again Lee!
