wireless n

anyone tested the wireless speed when copying a file over the network... it seems to be even alot slower than regular g ... copying a 700mb file is taking like 20 mins ..... even on regular g it should take only a few minutes...

anyone know a fix ?

it says im connected at 72Mbps .... but thats bullS%$t
[Desire Android Development] raymondy:
really? delete that file and all the ads will be gone?

is it gonna do some harm to the system functions

or anything else???

If not, it'll be GREAT!!!

will give it a try in Lee's upcoming 1.8a
[Desire Android Development] gouldy26:


How do you do that coping over the network and how are you checking your connection speed

Thanks

**SENIOR/EXPERT GUYS, PLEASE HELP ME..
[Desire Android Development] shadowrider:
Lee looking forward ur 1.8a Rom :)
[Desire Android Development] LeeDroid:
You timed that well! :p​
[Desire Android Development] LeeDroid:
1. Drop This update.zip (clockwork recovery) on your SD card

2. Boot your phone holding volume down

3.select "recovery"

4. Once in the red triangle screen, Hold volume up for a few seconds and tap power. (you should now enter the HTC recovery menu)

5. select flash update.zip

:D
[Desire Android Development] BKcore:
Definitly flashing this new 1.8a after I receive my Desire on Saturday :P

Keep up the good work !
[Desire Android Development] czzer:
Now that preflock is disabled on boot, would I have any problems if I DON'T use SetCPU?

I've got great battery life on 1.8 without SetCPU or any task killers etc so I'm happy to leave well enough alone, but not really knowing what preflock is I'm wondering if disabling it now makes SetCPU pretty much compulsory?
[Desire Android Development] scar45:
w00h00 Lee, thanks a ton! Gonna flash this over my 1.8 with no wipe and test the new goodies!

Two quick questions before i do though:

1. Is it possible to install the CIFS enabled kernel if it's not already included? (I note that you have OpenVPN in there already, and the two compliment each other nicely ;)

2. If i dont want the transparent pulldown menu, can i simply just flash the original circle batt addon from 1.8?

Thanks again Lee, I'm sure 1.8a will be on my Desire for a lonnng while!
[Desire Android Development] LeeDroid:
have not tried the Cifs module yet, to modify the kernel you will have to extract it from the boot image, worth a try...

The "Semi Transparent" notifacation blind is really nice! but yes, the original 1.8 framework should be fine. ;)
[Desire Android Development] Ronaldo_9:
is this worth upgrading from 1.8? i do not have any issues with apps2sd+ and i dont use stock andriod contacts.

also can this rom use different kernel?
[Desire Android Development] scar45:
Thanks for the super fast feedback Lee...I'm sure it's late over there now, and I don't want to keep you more (so no rush), but I just noticed on the first post that it says:

"certain features may be unavailable with no wipe"

Any insight into that? I'm running A2SD+ now with 1.8 and I'm questioning maybe doing a full wipe. Again, not sure if having A2SD+ already with 1.8 means that i should NOT flash the A2SD+ addon? If I need to, do I flash before first boot?

Sorry for the Qs and again no rush...I just have 1.8 working quite nice and don't want a no-wipe flash to cause issues or make certain things unavailable!

BTW, just dug through the framework-res.apk from the transparent addon, and I think i will use it ;) I had seen another '3rd party one that had some crappy-font 'android' text but this one looks clean. Thanks again!

thought just now though, I'll obviously do a NANDROID backup and no harm, no foul!
[Desire Android Development] Da Bealez:
Lee, any plans to put your Rom on rommanager? The lack of you is stopping me getting the premium version!

[Desire Android Development] kingtang:
Hi lee, I can't get the Chinese handwriting in my touch input selection list after my second flash of the rom. Also can't get the A2SD+ after flashing after first boot . Pls help. Thanks
[Desire Android Development] komandermaut:
sorry for being a noob here. i am using 1.8 now without a2sd+. with 1.8a out already, how can i flash this without wipe? should i just download 1.8a and re-flash it? or by making an update.zip?

thanks guys!
[Desire Android Development] redlabour:
1.8 to 1.8a - going away from a clear ROM more and more ....

My Impressions after upgrading from 1.8 to 1.8a:

Only Bug for me at 1.8 was still the HTC Widgets Bug. In 1.8a it is still not fixed.

At 1.8 i have figured out the discussed "lost Space on A2SD+" Bug. In 1.8a again more additionally Space on A2SD+ EXT3 Device is lost. Nearly again 50MByte and i cant restore 22 Apps because of this.

Since 1.7 a lot of Users want all Apps that are allready in Market as a AddOn Package - in 1.8a this Request is still ignored.And again more Packages are installed (BRUT Maps - WTF????, Clear Home .... - nobody needs this!).

Sorry LeeDroid - even if i loved 1.7 to 1.8 - 1.8a in my Eyes is not worth to upgrade from 1.8. Rolling back now.
[Desire Android Development] deskmat81:
I have the 1.8 installed at the moment and I can't flash update but I have a problem: although I have the SD already partitioned for A2SD every time I install programs the internal memory goes down. With few apps now I have only 117MB, even using froyo A2SD. Maybe do I have to install in another way A2SD+?
[Desire Android Development] redlabour:
I have allready requested this more then 5 times at LeeDroid and the Developers of ROM Manager. Never get an answer to this Question. :cool:
[Desire Android Development] redlabour:
And again less Points at Quadrant then with 1.8. If this continues next Update makes us slower then a Galaxy S. :-(
[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
It is already slower. A friend of mine got 2100 points with his Galaxy after rooting and applying a lagfix patch. And he's still at Eclair.
[Desire Android Development] robbiekhan:
Galaxy S has a better GPU than Desire, what were you expecting? Desire to beat it in Quadrant?
[Desire Android Development] Moe5508:
Hmmm, thanks for the impressions. Did you flash A2SD+ addon after the ROM flash? In SetInstallLocation, leave the location on "0-Auto" and all apps should go automatically to EXT3/4. There's a A2SD+ flashable that I came across somewhere and after installing it I also found my internal memory was running down despite leaving location on AUTO. I uninstalled it/restored from NAND backup and just used the FroYo A2SD and I was OK again with 79MB memory after installing all my 150+ apps.

Regarding market apps as an addon I'd agree with this but I'll hardly pass up a great ROM now if those apps are included and I can update them from market.

HTC Widgets bug, haven't tested that yet...

EDIT: Lee, I'd suggest that you post explicit instructions on HOW TO USE/NOT USE A2SD+ FLASHABLE ADD-ON in conjuction with FroYo A2SD.
[Desire Android Development] ZigmaDK:
I cant remember.. I might have done that. Even though I usually sync with HTC Sync. But I might have done it differently this time.
[Desire Android Development] Pitzbull:
LEes aim I hope is to provide a stable rom with less problems, not a super fast overclocked beast. Soon you will be out buying a waterblock or refrigerated cooler to get more score in some random benchmark. Stability is important rather than grunt.
[Desire Android Development] TxDLoaD:
he has answered that already.

Just read the whole thread :P

Well hes reply was, that he would do it once he finds a good place to host the file
[Desire Android Development] Pitzbull:
EDIT: Lee, I'd suggest that you post explicit instructions on HOW TO USE/NOT USE A2SD+ FLASHABLE ADD-ON

I think this is a great idea. Actually what I am waiting for before I flash....
[Desire Android Development] FloatingFatMan:
The problem here lies in your understanding of how to set it up. By setting the ModInstall to SD card, you're forcing installation of EVERYTHING to the FAT partition of the card using the Froyo A2SD, and that's what's causing the problem. If you want things to install to the ext3 partition, you need to set this to AUTO, and then it will use A2SD+ and install things to the ext3 partition as this is treated by the device as if it were internal storage.

Go to the Applications setting in Settings, in there you can move apps back to internal storage, such as the widgets. They'll then work. Oh, and change your ModInstall setting back to auto.
[Desire Android Development] bubu:
on my little experience if you want use A2SD+ at the maximun in ModInstall put INTERNAL! so every prog u install goes to internal (SD/ext3 partition), in my case i've about 50 apps, at the first boot i've set INTERNAL and now a still have 133mb free! so all is stored correctly with A2SD+ in SD/ext3 partition and nothing goes to Froyo A2sd...
[Desire Android Development] Xinot:
:confused: ext partition in SD is not internal... :confused:
[Desire Android Development] FloatingFatMan:
No, but A2SD+ makes Android treats it as such; that's how they were able to trick the system in to installing to SD in the first place.
[Desire Android Development] ardsar:
If you need more space in your EXT3 - partition it larger than 512M!

If you dont like the pre-installed apps - simply uninstall them!
[Desire Android Development] matsstell:
Adding the turn.ko module to the ROM?

I would very much like that too, I have during the last couple of days trying to get my head around how to create a trun.ko module for the kernel in the 1.8 release but with no success. So if someone with more knowledge in this than me could give some pointers or even better if the module was added to the ROM it would be very much appreciated.

The ROM is fantastic and adding this would turn it up a notch.

[Desire Android Development] Lonedogg:

without any Wipes

and Finished the Up to 1.8a incl A2sd & Transparents stats.

it runs fast and stabel:D

nice work,but some Questions are unsolved - for me-

Lee, you wrote,

" ....,certain features may be unavailable with no wipe."

:confused:which are :confused:

i tested all the news ,i found ( I Think so)

what do i miss in the 1.8a Without any Wipe??

It's worth it realy to wipe?

thx

[Desire Android Development] raupe:
Hi ardsar,

setup a EXT3 partition larger than 512 MB could lead to problems on android builds.

I got myself huge problems and the system could not use the partition with several Froyo builds (FR85 and FR91).

Greetings

Ralf
[Desire Android Development] thevisor1:
Is this poor English or are you cheeky? This ROM is for free! So you only can ask for s.t.
[Desire Android Development] bubu:
Exactly, ext partition is in the sd not internal BUT:

A2SD+ consider ext partition like internal memory so:

if u install on internal memory with A2SD+ activated u install on EXT...

Froyo A2SD works differently, it install apk on SD and the phone recognise that apk are on SD

A2SD+ install apk on ext but the phone recognise that the apk are on phone not in SD..

sorry for my english...i'm italian :)

I would like to know what I do wrong.

Each time I try to delete something out of the zip file I get a

"Can't open file /sdcard/ZIPFILENAME.zip (bad)" error when I try to flash it using clockworkmod recovery.

I open it with WinRAR and delete the files directly out of the zip-file. Do I have to change something in the settings?
[Desire Android Development] alonso_7:
hi to all!if i have already 1.8 with a2sd++ and i want to pass 1.8a without wipe i will have again a2sd++ or after flashing i should flash the a2sd++ add-on?
[Desire Android Development] LeeDroid:
Yes ;) ... it contains a slightly different boot.img
[Desire Android Development] LeeDroid:
Your zip is becoming corrupt
[Desire Android Development] Xinot:
Yes this is what i knew already, but confused about modinstall. No need to touch any install location settings when you install a2sd+ add on because it's "activated" allready after install if you have needed ext partition on your sd. :rolleyes:
[Desire Android Development] Gerigo-Greece:
I had 1.8 flashed 1.8a nad then the optional a2sd from the 1st post. All is well and I dont detect having lost anything.
[Desire Android Development] Barm926:
Why ?!?!?!? :mad:
[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
So how can I prevent it from getting corrupt?
[Desire Android Development] LeeDroid:
Because not everyone wants it lol
[Desire Android Development] LeeDroid:
Easy answer. Don't modify it.

I would give you more but I couldn't really go into much detail as the issue is with your winrar install
[Desire Android Development] Ultrazauberer:
What is better: A2SD Froyo oder A2SD+?

I tested a 16GB SD card and with an ext3 partition and some data on it, it was really slow ~1,5MB/s.

The whole card formatted in FAT32 without data and ext3 is ~4,5MB/s. So is the ext3 partition slowing down the card (or the data)?

So A2SD Froyo would be better, am I right?
[Desire Android Development] cosmic76:
sorry lee, but if i update from 1.8, i must to reflash app2sd+ or not?

tks

Ok, i have update and without reboot, i have flash already app2sd+

all right
[Desire Android Development] elknipso:
A2SD+ ist besser da es einige Vorteile gegenüber dem Standard A2SD von Froyo bietet. Ganz besonders, dass eben die Apps alle gleich darauf landen, auch die welche es nicht unterstützen.

Mir ist allerdings nicht ganz klar warum er A2SD+ aus dem ROM raus genommen hat, war doch super praktisch. Muss ich nun auch das Addon flashen wenn ich von 1.8 auf 1.8a update ohne einen wipe?

For our English friends:

A2SD + is better because it offers some advantages over the standard of A2SD Froyo. In particular, the apps that just end up all right away, and which do not support it.

However, I am not quite clear why he has taken A2SD + from the ROM was out, but super convenient. Do I now also flash the addon when I update from 1.8 to 1.8a without a wipe?
[Desire Android Development] cyb3rt:
Just flashed the 'Optional Super Circle Battery add-on with transparent blind' over my 1.7 ROM... Looks bloody awesome!!

Great job Lee!!
[Desire Android Development] Lennyuk:
Im quite new to desire but not android. Got mine the other day from Orange UK with a radio that seems to not match any others available.

I tried to get an unlock code and was told its not yet in the database, so I have to wait

I flashed this rom anyway with the stock radio I have and everything seemed to work fine.

What is supposed to be wrong if I don't (because I can't yet) update the radio?
[Desire Android Development] cittris:
Hey Lee,

Just finished flashing 1.8a

Can't wait to use it.

thanks again! your efforts are always appreciated!
[Desire Android Development] Barm926:
So, what about to remove sense ? :-)

Seriously, default FroYo "A2SD" sucks. :-(

anyway, thanks 4 good job!
[Desire Android Development] derGamser:
Hello all,

its a great rom,

but pls can some telle how to flash this optional circle battery add on?

the as installing the ROm, which means,

install uip file from SDCard?

thx for help.

cause this circle i was missing.

thx

greetings

ralf
[Desire Android Development] cosmic76:
Hi Lee, one trick, add optionale wake up, beacaue i love menu-wake-up-without-power.... but in your rom there is to default trackball wake-up :(

And if i flash my mod, your mod still.......

tks
[Desire Android Development] azz4eva:
Hi, I have v1.8 installed with a partition I created or apps from Rom manager, do I have to install this apps2sd thing when I install v1.8a? I always had my app default set to external.. is that good? Thanks in advance for you're support guys
[Desire Android Development] LeeDroid:
Remove sense! Too many feartures tied to sense that I wouldn't like to be without. Launcher2 is built in and optional :D

Got to agree! A2SD+ Is the way forward! ;)
[Desire Android Development] LeeDroid:
Try your 720p camcorder
[Desire Android Development] djmace:
Welcome aboard Lenny.

Whilst I'm not entirely sure, I believe that without the updated radio, you may have issues with 720 recording. Not sure if there are any other issues though.
[Desire Android Development] DjLukeW:
Having issues with my alarm clock lol. With standard lockscreen you can't turn the alarm off. Not amusing at 6.30am this morning woops
[Desire Android Development] Lennyuk:
it records for about 10 seconds then the phone reboots?

If this is the only issue I will face then I am happy enough at that and can stick with this rom (or other newer roms) without worrying then. Until I can unlock or until orange release 2.2 and I see what radio comes with that.

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] LeeDroid:
Once you have flashed the rom and fully booted for the first time, go to rom manager and select flash rom from SD card and choose the add-on
[Desire Android Development] cosmic76:
For app2sd set default, not external....

And yes after flash update without reboot flash addons app2sd+ and then reboot

by
[Desire Android Development] Lennyuk:
Oh and can this rom really be underclocked?

I have only had the phone a day and a half but already feel that battery life without underclocking may become an issue
[Desire Android Development] TxDLoaD:
Installed 1.8a with mods

Hi I've been using LeeDroid for a while now.

Well today I installed 1.8a (full wipe to avoid problems) + the A2SD+ addon

After boot I installed the BlackExpressoMod then boot then the Transparent plus super battery, boot again and then the expressobar.

Boot and then finally the super battery C version that dj_parkinson packed for us all: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=751898

And it all works and looks awesome :D
[Desire Android Development] quark1980:
hmm im busy flashing 1.8a over 1.8 without wipe, i did get into some kind of boot-loop with the android bleeping showing endless......

BUT, after i pulled te battery, i resumed flashing the apsd+ addon, and after that it booted fine...

not sure if this was expecteded to happen because i already used apsd+ on 1.8.

i did get a FC on BRUT rigt after boot....

any way to fix that or do i really have to do a wipe :(... i wiped so much lately :/

nevertheless the roms are awesome. so its is kinda worth the hassle....

if i encounter more thing ill give a shout... always good to collect isseus.. even if those isseus are user-related

edit:

after all im wiping now. not want to encounter more isseus... ill report if i get another bootloop WITH wipe...
[Desire Android Development] TxDLoaD:
Yes you can. I have configured SetCPU to underclock it all the way when in sleep mode. it helps alot :D
[Desire Android Development] Lennyuk:
and final questions before I become too annoying :D

What sort of cpu speeds can the desire clock down too (generally) without having issues?

Just so I know a ball park figure to start with to test the phone out.
[Desire Android Development] azz4eva:
If I set it to external what happens? And I also found when I switched to external I was able to then go into file manager and move apps to SD card, otherwise it refused to let me.
[Desire Android Development] siliKoner:
@Leedroid: thanks for picking up the slack from HTC and giving us desire owners in australia and elsewhere froyo. 1.8 was awesome, fast, stable and battery life is good (with some help from ultimate juice defender and SetCPU).

Just upgraded to 1.8a. Has anyone else noticed Bookmarks widget is missing?

sK
[Desire Android Development] CooperXIII:
After upgrading to 1.8 I have next issue.

When connecting to a PC mode automatically "charging only". Changing the settings in the menu (PC connections) does nothing. Icon in notifications area is absent.

How do I switch my phone to "disk drive"?
[Desire Android Development] TxDLoaD:
well i tried to set it to minimum of setcpu which is like 245mhz i think

and it just lags. so no freezing from UC so far.

I dont mind answering :P
[Desire Android Development] Lennyuk:
How this issue has been solved on other phones is to untick "ask me" in the settings then try to change it via the notification bar.

Might be worth trying that
[Desire Android Development] elknipso:
I had exactly the same problem. So one has to install the addon if you A2SD + + A2SD also used already has, otherwise you end up in a boot loop.

Would be happy if Lee would integrate it by default again ...
[Desire Android Development] edgeball:
Have I missed the changelog?
[Desire Android Development] Ascenca83:
As always on page 1 ;)

Ascenca
[Desire Android Development] elknipso:
After the flash of the Battery Mod it now hangs on boot ...
[Desire Android Development] edgeball:
yeah, sure now I see it. I didn't see any on my xda app
[Desire Android Development] TxDLoaD:
just wait it takes a long time.
[Desire Android Development] bubu:
no one can confirm this???
[Desire Android Development] KoTiX2:
Same boot loop here :( i'm going to try to flash app2sd+ too

Lee do we need a full wipe ?
