hi just wondered and wanted some advice......

when i have the .zip file downloaded eg. LeeDrOiD_V1.8.zip is it possible for me to open this file on the pc and navigate to system/apps and delete the things i dont want such as HtcFootprints.apk, Htc Footprints.odex........

If so will this just stop the things being installed without causeing any problems with the flashed rom?

thanks
[Desire Android Development] raix:
Read the thread that has been answered so many times....
[Desire Android Development] Xinot:
Looks like LauncherPro. DL it from market.
[Desire Android Development] dazzlet:
i did read it but just wanted to check that i could do it because i thought it not possible but from reading some user comments it seems it is (i thought footprints and things were official apps and could not be removed like that)
[Desire Android Development] jamperi:
Yes you can remove unwanted app's from /system/apps and /data/apps folders freely. Just delete unwanted application.apk without unpacking the ROM.zip package.

I have removed footprints and many other apps that I dont need from the rom and it doesnt affect the usage.
[Desire Android Development] dazzlet:
thanks for this i will have a go now

can i also add them the same way just drop the .apk file in there for them to be installed on flash?
[Desire Android Development] Peikko:
I once tried this with an other rom but most of the apps were still there after I flashed the rom. will it work here really? just download latest rom and delete apk files in it and flash?
[Desire Android Development] Pixel72:
big thank you Lee .....6UF11211N3975093N
[Desire Android Development] quanghaidv04:
with V1.8, Start up takes a lot of times about 2 minutes?????? what happened?
[Desire Android Development] naboleo:
Never add problem removing unwanted apps... either in /data/app or /system/app. You should try again
[Desire Android Development] tedman:
Great ROM LeeDroid. Is it possible to add cifs support to your next version?
[Desire Android Development] marsizzler:
Wonder if anybody can shed any light on my small problem.

I have been running leedroid since 1.6 and the whole thing has gone very smoothly indeed apart from one problem, reboots!

I seem to have a consistent amount of reboots which can be annoying when in the middle of surfing or playing games etc etc.

Just wondered if anybody else has experienced this and if there is a way to sort it out.

Cheers
[Desire Android Development] fersingb:
Mh, OK, but AFAIK, using RomManager to flash the ROM the phone will reboot automatically after flashing is done...

Maybe could you explain how to "merge" A2SD+ to the ROM zip before flashing?
[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
Easiest way:

Copy both zip-files to your sdcard and reboot into recovery using ROM Manager. Then:

Install zip from sdcard

choose zip from sdcard

Choose the ZIP-File for the ROM

repeat step 1 to 3 for the A2SD+ zip-file

go back to main menu and reboot system
[Desire Android Development] etismyname:
Hi,

I have been searching through the forum but I can't find a good answer to this.

My ADB thing is broken, that means I can't use any of the command lines to make Ext2....

I have made a Ext2 through rom manager...is there a way to make a Ext3 through similar app?

Or which recovery boot will allow me to install a Ext 3?

Thanks for helping :o
[Desire Android Development] cosmic76:
when used with leedroid1.8 appmonster install the SD card gives me error ...... is a problem with my sd or someone has the same problem?

tks
[Desire Android Development] Peikko:
Just to make sure I'll do it correctly.

1. Download Leedroid 1.8

2. Open Zip and remove every apk AND odex I don't need

3. Wipe data/factory reset

4. install zip

That's it?

Cause thats what I did last time.
[Desire Android Development] shadowrider:
Hi guy, google navigation still not yet support in Asia. Has anyone try to include mod [brut] Google map in LeeDroid 1.8 ?
[Desire Android Development] kien:
Thats what I did (no odex files as rom is deodexed), will also need to disable signature verification in recovery before flashing it.
[Desire Android Development] dazzlet:
i have a problem...... i removed the HtcTwitter.spk because i dont ever use it from the system/app folder but when i have gone to flash the rom it says verifying update package.......

E:Missing file:

system/app/HtcTwitter.apk

E:verification failed

Installation aborted

Please can you advise

thanks
[Desire Android Development] dazzlet:
How can i do this thanks
[Desire Android Development] mbroeders:
Have you turned off signature verification in recovery???

Btw, does anyone have an idea when 1.8a will be up? Loving this ROM, so thanks Lee!
[Desire Android Development] mbroeders:
Ah, there should be an option in recovery. Just boot into recovery and look around there, should be an option (probably under advanced).
[Desire Android Development] LukeHandle:
As kien says "[you] will also need to disable signature verification in recovery before flashing it." Have you done that? Once it recovery > install zip from sdcard > toggle signature verification. Then it should then give you the status of 'Signature Check' whether enabled or disabled.
[Desire Android Development] dazzlet:
do you use clockwork recovery or another method?
[Desire Android Development] TxDLoaD:
Its just under the choose zip from sdcard
[Desire Android Development] stothy862:
I know it's been asked twice before but never answered! But have you updated the BT stack so a wiimote can be used?
[Desire Android Development] Peikko:
If 1.8a comes out, I have to repeat that, don't I? I mean repaet removing apk's everytime I flash a new Leedroid.

Why do I have to keep the *.odex file of an apk I delete?
[Desire Android Development] TxDLoaD:
Indeed Indeed
[Desire Android Development] cCeT:
there was a keyboard button on the left down corner of keyboard which i was able to make keyboard disappeared.but now there is an EN letter now.how can i bring it back?
[Desire Android Development] LeeDroid:
UP SOON!

V1.3a:

Added Android Keyboard with Voice input! (working) :D

Added Cyanogen's HEUGE APN list

Removed Maps, Root explorer & Rockplayer (some users experiencing update issues)

I love text to speech! lots of languages supported!
[Desire Android Development] vonacid:
Hi, I've tried the rom. Managed to boot into the system after flashing. But when i restart my phone, it got stuck at the Andriod LeeDroid (Froyo) screen forever. Any solutions to this? it seems like my phone is a gone case >.<"

Why is it like that? i'm very scared now... sorry for being noob but i'm really worried...
[Desire Android Development] w0mbat:
Did you have a2sd installed previously? If so, you could need to flash the zip from the 1st page.

Otherwise it could need a full wipe & reflash from recovery.

[Desire Android Development] scouseingib:
Legend you are really on top of this rom. Good to see a rom that is being updated even though it is very good as is ,and just gets that bit better each update.

Any idea of a time for 1.3a? went to bed about 10min before you put 1.3 last night lol
[Desire Android Development] vonacid:
I've tried flashing the rom a 2nd time.... but still stuck at the LeeDroid Mod (Froyo) screen.... T.T
[Desire Android Development] LeeDroid:
It should be up in about an hour
[Desire Android Development] scouseingib:
nice one just as the a-team should finish, which bye the way is a top film defo worth a watch.
[Desire Android Development] LeeDroid:
Do you have your SD card partitioned? If so this can cause bootloops if you don't install the A2SD addon
[Desire Android Development] w0mbat:
Bit weird but my GPS has started to work..... Great stuff, liking 1.3 a lot. Well done Lee :)

Sent from my HTC Desire
[Desire Android Development] maliqu3:
can i flash the newest radio (32.42.00.32U_5.09.00.08) to use this rom? or i should flash 32.41.00.32U_5.08.00.04 to make this rom works properly?
[Desire Android Development] AndyBroke:
I am using it myself. Works great :)
[Desire Android Development] bmk90:
First of all, thank you for your rom! works great!

Do I need to make a full wipe for 1.3a coming from 1.3?
[Desire Android Development] Kookitza:
Hi LeeDroid!

PLZ fix the links to V1.3a..

10x :P
[Desire Android Development] Sassanix:
Spareparts doesn't seem to work. Can anyone help out? I'm trying to change the keyboard to HTC and the bootanimation.
[Desire Android Development] scouseingib:
Read what it said, the rom aint ready for download till 23:58 now 00:11
[Desire Android Development] maliqu3:
so which one should i do first? flash radio then the rom or the rom first then the radio?
[Desire Android Development] LeeDroid:
Spare parts is only currently for A2SD (froyo) and a few speed tweaks, System mods wont work as we dont have full root on the desire

Hi lee, between what time you update....

1 Question: in 1.8a there is a chance to answer calls as the nexus, crawling to the right :o
[Desire Android Development] Alpha955:
Just registered to say thanks to Lee for v1.8, works flawlessly.

looking forward to v1.8a

Cheers & beers

[Desire Android Development] thunder87:
Hi there,

can you please tell me, where i can get the android contacts/dialer which was included in former LeeDroid releases?

After i made a ext3 Partition in rom manager the phone will not boot anymore. it reboots and reboots and reboots....
[Desire Android Development] samleung:
Boot to recovery and wipe the data on the EXT, do full wipes on everything. I had the same issue on my first time root, scared the hell out of me.
[Desire Android Development] t0x1c:
Doesnt work... X.x how big should the "swap" be ?
[Desire Android Development] b6rt:
+1 :)

If it still doesn't boot after this:

- boot into recovery, format sd-ext, full wipe

- reflash the rom

- reboot

Should work.

2.2 Flash Video

This may not be specifically related to LeeDroid, it may just be a 2.2 thing....

In 2.1 with Flash Lite when viewing a flash video, you could double click on it and it would go full screen, then you could skip the video by clicking on the timeline.

In 2.2 I can get the video full screen by pressing and holding then choosing the full screen icon, but I cant skip the video. Every time I touch the timeline it pauses the video.

Any ideas?
[Desire Android Development] t0x1c:
Only reflash rom or the radio 2 ?
[Desire Android Development] thunder87:
thx :D

and thx again to Lee for a really stable and great working 1.8!!!
[Desire Android Development] samleung:
The swap is usually set at a reccommended 0mb. Flash the ROM first
[Desire Android Development] mondalanon:
why is 720p video recording is so lag? when i watch my video taken from this rom.. soo lag, its like choppy, when i set in wvga it runs smooth... thanks pls answer my query
[Desire Android Development] stothy862:
Well ignored twice so moving to opendesire as it requires no wipe ¬¬
[Desire Android Development] LeeDroid:
Hopefully things will settle down at work soon. No time to be rooting through all the questions ATM... sorry all ;)

Better Flash the Radio again. My last Flash i dont Flash the Radio and have mutch Problems recive traffic. But the 3g indicats fully. After reflash Radio all fine, and I think its better then bevor
[Desire Android Development] mvgcf:
Hi,

thanks for the ROM, i really like it. Unfortunately i have some trouble.

After flashing LeeDrOiD i couldnt restore my apps using Titanium Backup. In fact, i even cant use the market place to install apps. So Im kinda stuck here.

May anyone give me some hints on this issue? I really have no clue how to solve this since im new to the whole topic...

greets
[Desire Android Development] alonso_7:
hi lee!your 1.8 rom is great!I have only gps issues meaning that gps flashes but no lock at all!i read that we don't need full wipe so if I put your upcoming 1.8a can I do it without wiping everything and I have read that gps fixed!and also will my a2sd++ will work if I don't wipe or I should flash the add-on too?I'm waiting for your new rom and for your answer!
[Desire Android Development] Jarul:
i thought it was to do with the memory card class. mine is class 2, and i think you need at least class 4
[Desire Android Development] lept0n:
Has anyone tried the version C of the Super circle battery mod ? if so post the file or the link please. Thanks.
[Desire Android Development] jamperi:
Havent tried that but i dont see any broblem why you could not add them as easily as put them in. I prefer installing applications afterwards with HTC Sync or adb (HTC Sync is actually just adb GUI so that would be good way most of the users).

I think they might be there if you don't do full wipe installation, but if there is after flash apps you want remove just delete them using adb
[Desire Android Development] BrightSilence:
Would that be instead of google maps? Cause I used to use brut maps navigation when NL wasn't supported by Google yet and it really was a pain to use.

Or does that change with brut maps too, now that Google supports NL?
[Desire Android Development] DjLukeW:
Just out of interest, how many people are using the standard android lockscreen instead of sense.

Also is it possible to change to it after flashing or is it best doing it before flash?
[Desire Android Development] ardsar:
I'm using sense due to media control.
[Desire Android Development] Psycho2200:
Problems

Hi!

I have just installed the LeeDroid 1.8 and did a full wipe before installation.

Now i tried to restore my apps and data with Titanium Backup but HTC reboots.

I also can not install an app manually -> reboot.

some has an idea? I did not read through all 700 pages :(

thanks!

br
[Desire Android Development] DjLukeW:
you should search them........

you need an ext3 partition
[Desire Android Development] Psycho2200:
Oh :(

I have read the first pages, and there stands that if i don't have an ext3 one, then it will be used the Froyo App2SD.

I only need an ext3 when i want to use external App2SD+ is this not correct?
[Desire Android Development] DjLukeW:
yes but there is a problem with standard a2sd
[Desire Android Development] juniorxdb:
:D Many thanks!!! His ROM is the best of XDA!!! Save my battery!!! :D
[Desire Android Development] cosmic76:
yeah, +1 after various flash and restore, have more problem, i have reflash the radio and all right again........
[Desire Android Development] Arttuu:
Thanks for the great ROM Lee! Very smooth!

Unfortunately I have problem with mounting SD-card. For example when I unplug the phone from the computer, the phone doesn't always mount the SD-card correctly. It says "Read only" and that there was some kind of error. It usually starts working when I mount the card again but sometimes I have to mount it several times. Also once the phone freezed when I tried to mount the card and then had a FC.

I don't know if anyone else has this kind of a problem, I haven't read the latest replies. But I hope that you can solve this problem in next version. Keep up the good work! :)
[Desire Android Development] geordie1976:
Hey Lee cracking work! So this is my first post ever - rooted my phone and have kept up with your Roms from the first one. :-)

Thread related question though, Using the XDA app the first post doesn't show the change log of versions, any way this could be captured?

Looking forward to 1. 8a
[Desire Android Development] Ultrazauberer:
Great ROM. I just installed the 1.8 (my first custom ROM) and all is working fine.

But I have a last question: Can I change the container of the recorded video? Now I have 3gp and I want mp4.

PS: My new 16GB Card from SanDisk is so slow (Class 2) and has round about 2 MB/s writespeed, switching back to the SanDisk 8GB (Class 4) which reaches 10MB/s writespeed.
[Desire Android Development] gouldy26:
perfect, my new card is coming in the morning and i will do exactly as you've described

see i was gonna do what you've said, but with titanium backup instead, which im assuming wouldn't have worked
[Desire Android Development] allgxxd:
Hei,

I try to read this thread but it keeps expanding more and more ...

Just wanted to ask is there any particular reason, that ext3 Has to be 512mb?

Wasnt Desires inner ROM that big, so whats the point of making it the same size, cant i use like 1 GB?
[Desire Android Development] MappaM:
In the ROM, there is a part for the system, another for the cache, ... And at the end there is only ~120Mo for apps ;)
[Desire Android Development] s0meb0dy:
There is really good free navigation program available here: www.waze.com

The maps updated by users so coverage in your area may vary.

It needs wireless data only for route calculation. Everything else can be preloaded or switched off.
[Desire Android Development] stm999999999:
no one who can make this test? :confused: :(

I would be very happy to use maps 4.4 in the future!
[Desire Android Development] Submarine854:
Ok, I'm the new one here, hi! :)

After a successful installation of v1.8 my Desire runs pretty well, no problems so far, not to mention the 720p video problems of course.

Anyway, I wonder if we will see WiFi proxy support in LeeDroid soon or later? Or is this Google's job to include it one day into Android? Perhaps LeeDroid can take it over into v2.0 :D

I know of issue #1273 and the never ending complaints about the absence of such a feature, however, is there little chance we will see a proxy any time soon?

Orange unlock code ?

Greetings.

I stumbled upon this ROM while browsing the interwebs after ordering my Desire (Orange Pack), and I'm really interrested in using it. The install process is clearly understandable, but i got a question left unanswered :

In the main post, it is written :

What kind of code is that ?

And more importantly, is it mandatory if I want to flash LeeDrOiD's ROM on my Orange branded Desire ?
[Desire Android Development] TxDLoaD:
This is what i did when i installed the 1.8

And maps works fine for me both with wlan and with 3g

Hi all

I have just installed this FAB rom and the espresso transparency mod.

I love the speed of the rom, thank you Lee, is by far the fastest, smoothest one I have tried,

I would like to restore the battery icon back to the original from the circle battery icon. I have searched these forums and google but have had no luck.

Please can someone tell me where to download the .zip to restore the icon (that is if it's possible).

Thanks

Daz.
[Desire Android Development] Psycho2200:
I have a little problem with new installed LeeDroid.

I have set the install location to SD, but my Phone memory is filled to 70%.

Also some of my installed apps/widgets which are installed at the sd are not usable after i have connected the phone to the pc using it as external storage.

Someone has an idea?

thanks

Hi Lee, great work on the rom, everything working sweet as...

Just one thing, can we change the name of the carrier? Used to do that on my iPod.

Thanks again..

[Desire Android Development] hunchi:
Hey there,

Using 1.6 since it was available and It's just great! Smooth, fast, power saving. Last charge was 26hrs ago and I'm at 52%. Hell, that's pretty impressive. Got and wrote some texts and emails, had one phone call, installed 13 updates from the market and did some browsing. WiFi was ON all time.

Don't see any reason to upgrade to 1.8 at the moment.

Thanks for the ROM, keep up the brilliant work!

Best,hunchi
[Desire Android Development] mintvilla:
yes theres a millions answeres to this question, if your apps and widgets are stored on your sd card, then u connect it to your pc, your sd card cannot be in your phone and connected to the pc at the same time. Apps only store on your sd card if the developer of the app allows you to store them on the sd card, the vast majority either dont, or havnt yet.

since youve installed this rom youved obvs rooted so u need to partition your sd card, this then will force every app onto your partition so you can store many more apps, and u wont lose them when u connect to the pc.

oh and dont ask how to do this, its been explained many times before, use the search button.
[Desire Android Development] Psycho2200:
I have partitioned my SD card before flashing the new Leedroid.

So normally it should install the apps into the ext3 partition or?

I will search the thread.
[Desire Android Development] Submarine854:
Found on the first page of this thread, however, I did not try it myself, see posting #8 (I cannot post any URL so far inside this forum, so you have got to jump there for yourself :o

Do you have an ext3 partition? If so leave mod install location set to auto
[Desire Android Development] doggydog2:
of course i reboot meanwhile etc.. widgets never reappear. my ModInstall tool points to SD card.

i'm really surprised by this silly behaviour, i thought EXT partition is for storing DATA and APP!!! not huge programs like Navigon jees... people were saying get EXT partition because you won't be able to keep memory for all (little) programs so I did.. and for what.
[Desire Android Development] Psycho2200:
I hope so. I used partition SD of ROM Manager.

Ok so i need to uninstall all apps. set it to auto, and restore the backup, or should i install them manually?
[Desire Android Development] TxDLoaD:
Got my first FC:

process com.android.mms

I was going back in messages to check another contacts message when i got the FC

Ive been using custom roms for some time, so im glad that i only got this one :D

Anyways is it a rom bug or?

I dont think so since i dont know what caused it
