Major question

Have been thinking of modifying this ROM to my own preferences, no distribution so i wont piss anyone off about that part.

First of, i need to be using Windows 7 since i intend to do this as a project at my work computer on all that spare-time i got.

Yeah...moving on...

Thing is, i could just try to replace apks in the ROM-zip to the ones i want to bundle, and delete the ones i will never in my lifetime use (stocks, twitter and facebook being a few of them). Sign it and then flash the whole package to phone.

Haven't even tried this yet since that seems just way too easy to be working perfectly.

Or am i wrong, is it that easy?

Seems to me that there should be some kind of register with all involved files, like i.e. the file MANIFEST.MF which is located in the META-INF folder, that would be the file i would bet my money on...if i had any.

If that is the correct file (MANIFEST.MF) which i need to add my entries to, is it just to enter them one by one following the exact form of other already entered apps, or is the content in that file linked to something else except the apk?

And next question, if i want to replace i.e. the ADW-launcher to the LauncherPro+ (yes i have bought it), is it just to modify the file (again, MANIFEST.MF) to the LP+ apk-name and then change the akp-file itself?

Have read a bit on this subject at almighty Google, but no answer seem to fit my questions. Most of them is kind of "install complete rom and then add/remove desired apps trough ADB, and make a nandroid-backup to use as installer". ...Well yes that would work, but that were not the idea behind most of the questions.

And at last, i know some apps are crucial to have if i want a working phone, but that part i will solve with Google + trial & error. The main problem, which i cant seem to get any clearer at searching/reading around in the ROM-package, is how its built up/files linked and how to do exactly this, remove/replace/add apps of my liking to end up with a personalized flash-able rom.

Will as said trial & error my way trough this, guess all i need is a few pointers to sort this questions out,

and then im om my way.

what can i say

my frist post
[Desire Android Development] ziggy1001:
You do know that rom manager recovery has an option to "toggle signature verification"

So when i remove stuff i don't need in a rom i just use that no resigning needed;)

+ Titanium backup can remove system apps in a couple of clicks

On the Cyanogen wiki (i think) is a list of which apk's are vital and which can be removed so probably a good place to start

[Desire Android Development] Bartyzel:
Do you have cmda or gsm? It is important.
[Desire Android Development] c4p3fi3rr:
I have a small issue with CM6.1.1(default kernel). Sometimes the phone "forgets" some settings. For example, i often find vibration set to "only in silent mode" while i previously set it on "always". When i receive phone calls or messages, the phone just doesn't vibrate, no metter what i set it to. It also forgets render effect setting upon reboot. Is it just me or does someone else have similar issues?
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
Had the vibration issue too, haven't found the cause though :(
[Desire Android Development] ShirazSuleman:
It resets the vibration setting to default when you use the sound notification power widget or the normal sound power widget. I just use the lockscreen slider to toggle between vibrate and normal.
[Desire Android Development] ruizit0:
first time with this rom.. where i can change the order of power widget stuff ?

and what is the best kernel to use with this rom (battery saving / speed equilibrated)

thanks
[Desire Android Development] ShirazSuleman:
For Notification Power Widget - CyanogenMod Settings -> User Interface

Normal Power Widget - Add the Power Control Widget to your Home screen and it will automatically take you to the settings for the widget.

I am currently using the the kernel in my signature and loving it :)
[Desire Android Development] jadephyre:
I'll probably get flamed for this, but: How is battery life with this ROM ?

CM 6.1.0 drained my battery like crazy...
[Desire Android Development] ruizit0:
i mean the notification power widget.. ill see that thanks...

i read somewhere to use this kernel

couttstech-2.6.32.28_OC1190_CFS_BFQ_SLQB

whats the diference betwen yours and this one ?

thanks
[Desire Android Development] ruizit0:
just one question... i was reading here.. this kernels the one you use and the one i showed .. arent they for sense roms ?
[Desire Android Development] c4p3fi3rr:
Does SwitchPro Widget have this issue too?
[Desire Android Development] ShirazSuleman:
No idea, sorry :)

The version I am using is the latest version by coutts99 and it has HAVS rather than SVS. Also he has a seperate Sense kernel.
[Desire Android Development] ruizit0:
ah thanks i saw the topic .. what is the diference from BFS and CFS ?
[Desire Android Development] ruizit0:
is there anyway to change the automatic bright value ? if i put the screen in automatic bright is to dark :\
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
Of course, just change the values in CyanogenMod settings...
[Desire Android Development] ruizit0:
ok thanks sry for my noobness ... i always had sense roms :x

this is extremly fast.. but i miss some things like the contacts apk from HTC :\
[Desire Android Development] JasmariesMom:
Great ROM only downfall is I can't access the market :(
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
You need to flash the Google apps after the ROM, they're not included.

Use CyanogenMod6 HDPI Full.

what about Battery Life... no one answered that question yet...
[Desire Android Development] Kali-:
it depend on usage

using it as a phone u have something like 4d life

if u use it a lot u have to charge it every day
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
Or, if you're like me, you have to carry around an external USB battery and juice up the phone at lunchtime :p

I use it as an MP3 player (and I listen to music constantly when I'm working), constantly for e-mail (both work and personal stuff), Twitter, forums... if I use it this way it's dead by 6PM after taking it off the charger at 7AM. That's the price you pay for the functionality of Android... :)
[Desire Android Development] jadephyre:
I was asking because 6.1.0 ate through my battery in a matter of hours and not even a full work-day, it would have been dead after 4 hours, tops (it lost 25% after the first hour).

I've searched but can't seem to find a fix for my issue:

I flashed the ROM last night using ROM Manager, but whenever I plug my phone in to my PC via USB Windows doesn't recognise it, and only charges it.

I'm guessing this is a driver issue, but what's the best way to resolve this?
[Desire Android Development] andQlimax:
Did u put ur phone in usb storage mode? While plugged to ur pc, slide down the notification bar and choice usb storage or something like that
[Desire Android Development] Meekel:
Doesn't give me an option after sliding down the notification bar.
[Desire Android Development] andQlimax:
Isn't there a notification that say "charging only"? Click on that noification and see..

I not remember correctly now..Im temporally back to stock rom
[Desire Android Development] Meekel:
Nop. It has no notifications.

I'm slightly lost by this..

*FIXED*

Not 100% sure how (or why), but a reboot seemed to kick it into action. Very strange, but at least it's working

Hi all,

Great rom.

However after week of use I'm getting some hanged exchange mail syncing. Now i need to refresh mailboxes manually mostly.

Where the issue may come from?
[Desire Android Development] rust-m:
Try using display hack (calibrated N1, etc). It slightly decrease draining you battery.

As for me, i use 2400mah battery. It kills the glamour look of Desire, but i can survive longer a day without charger.
[Desire Android Development] ruizit0:
im getting out of memory installing only a dozen of apps... how can i solve this ? this rom doesnt have the apps to ext3 ?

okay so i just installed the mod on my desire to find that i have no market :S somebody help please.

ok never mind i went back to oxygen 2.3 gingerbread
[Desire Android Development] jadephyre:
You also have to install the Google Apps Addon which you can download from the same site as CyanogenMod.

Cyanogen can not bundle the GApps into the ROM due to legal reasons.

While Android in itself is Open Source, the Google Apps aren't, thus they can't be included into the ROM.

Just be made available as a separately flashable Archive.

hi wingphil,

2 questions!!!

but why with leedroid 2.3 i've the same space but i can install as many app as I want??

(i used rom manager to format sd card 512 ext 0 swap)

is that ok???

is there a way to do this without S-OFF???

2 can I change the notification bar???

I don't need the bluetooth icon but i need the airplane!

AlphaRev CM7 HBOOT ?

Hi,

May I use the AlphaRev CM7 HBOOT for CyanogenMod 6.1.1 or I will have problems with this particular partitions scheme ? What partitioning scheme do you recommend for CyanogenMod 6.1.1 (I am usually installing a lot of apps) ?

Thank you.
[Desire Android Development] mbroeders:
Nope, it's designed for CM7. The problem lies in the small cache partition. With CM7 downloads go to /data/..., while with CM6.1 they go to the cache partition. For 6.1, the N1 hboot table is recommended. Or you could use Firerat's script if you would like to use an EXT partition...

Interesting info on the GSM auto (RPL)...i have really poor 3G coverage...maybe i should give it a try?
[Desire Android Development] rochyroch:
Thanks for that, back to how i like it.

Also found out why my shortcut icons for apps installed on sd card lost their relevant image and ended up with a default android icon after power off / reboot.

It was down to the 'Use screen cache' being enabled in ADWLauncher.

turned off all is fine.
[Desire Android Development] djind:
Just to make sure we are talking about the same thing, you do mean the free space for apps, right? (sd card and phone storage > available space = 102mb)

df -h | grep system in terminal gives me: size 250M - used av 111.4M 138.6M 138.6M 45% /system
[Desire Android Development] Kali-:
never spoked about free space on /data

i mean: moving app from /system to /data only for easy removal is not useful (cant give more space for other applications)

our phone have a very strange partition table and a not understandable write protection, i hope some one find soon a way to bypass this protection

battery percent mod from cyanogenmod settings doesn't seem to work very well for me. after a reboot it always cuanges back to standard, although tye option is still checked. any ideas how to make the change permanent?
[Desire Android Development] szymonunion:
a lot of problems... :/

Hello,

I installed RC1 yesterday. 1st try was unsuccessful (stuck at boot anim), so again wipe data/wipe cache, install and reboot.

OK, works, but seems be slowly and laggy. After I configured sthg it still seems be in the same state. OK, I decided to restore my Titanium backup (restore all apps and system data), after this and reset I have multiply icons (the same) in launcher.

I have many 'problem with widget' info on screens, no good call app I had before (but I restored all apps, strange)...ehhh, seems be I had to reinstall everything.

Due to I do not have problems with reading (wiki -> full update guide) and this thread please let me know what to do to have perfect system:

1) install ROM: still RC1 or should I take some nightly ?

2) install gapps - which one? I have both: gapps-desire-1.0-signed and gapps-hdpi-FRF91-signed ?

3) reboot

4) restore Titatnium: which option? restore missing apps or restore all apps ore restore all apps with system data?

5) install setCPU and configure it

Any others?

Thanks in advance!

edit: after 2 more reboots seems be better. I have to install setcpu and check. And good call app, because standard one is not usefull at all.

edit 2: after any problem (force close or sthg) I got problem loading widget - I use Launcher Pro 0.7.1.0. After restart of this app nothing is changed - still widgets are gone...
[Desire Android Development] szymonunion:
gr8 :/ now almost of widgets gone somewhere. I do not know why.

What is going on? Why I have only 40MB free of internal storage? Almost apps are on SD, I cannot move system updates to SD.

edit: TOTAL DISASTER: I just turned on USB to copy some files and in the same time something killed launcher pro and ADW launcher was started with default settings, all my apps are gone and I have nothing...

WHAT IS GOING ON with this ROM ?!?!?!
[Desire Android Development] Cuchulainx:
Tried this last night, lots of nice features (like the new wallpapers etc) but essentially very slow and buggy, especially with streaming flash (which works perfectly on Opendesire, Defrost and most of the other 2.2 roms), it ended up FC'ing the browser.

Try latest nightly. Smooth as opendesire 1.3, but packed with features
[Desire Android Development] georgemv:
Do you have launcher pro installed on the same SD card that you just "removed" from you phone? :)
[Desire Android Development] szymonunion:
georgemv:

ROTFL, of coz I had :) now it is moved to phone, but I will wipe all and install nightly build as few colleagues suggested here :)

I am still thinking how it is possible to have ~40MB free of internal storage? What directory is it? I can check via 'adb shell ls <some_dir> ;)
[Desire Android Development] L Fiddy:
Anyone else had an issue with the wifi turning itself on? I think it only started today, or yesterday.
[Desire Android Development] DashingGentleman:
It's the dalvik cache taking up all the sapce. No way around it, unless you use an apps2sd+ script.
[Desire Android Development] szymonunion:
OK, I used it before and it was fine. I will check apps2SD with Froyo during weekend.

After I installed nigthly build (30072010) it is working fine ;)
[Desire Android Development] FoleyIsGood:
I couldn't spot an answer to this - any ideas? I've had the same problem.

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] DashingGentleman:
The Launcher fails to load the SD card app icons upon boot as they are not all mounted when the launcher initially loads. Resetting the launcher once the phone has fully booted does the trick - unfortunately ADW Launcher doesn't seem to have an easy way to do this. I think disabling the homescreen caches also sorts out this issue as it forces the launcher to redraw the homescreens.
[Desire Android Development] ephumuris:
I think he said he turned off and option in ADW settings. I think he said disable screen cache setting in Adw settings system preferences.
[Desire Android Development] gaeng4665:
Is that the solution to constant FC of com.google.arcore process or something like that...?

I'm gettting constant FC of the launcher and actually have no idea why this happens....

otherwise the rom is great besides A2SD is missing (i know i have to wait for the RC2 release)...
[Desire Android Development] beidl:
No, you have to wait for the even next version, 6.1 ;)

Try deleting the launchers data in the settings app.

Yeh icons can be reset by un-tick re-ticking the option,

i originally thought that un-ticking fixed the problem

but after a reboot default android icons are back for apps

installed on the sd card.

installed LauncherPro for now to get round it.

changing the subject i've been trying to remove apps from the

/system/app/ with terminal emulator & root explorer

root explorer appears to delete the .apk i asked to remove

a quick ls in terminal emulator shows it has gone but after

a reboot the .apk is back! any ideas?

i can properly remove using adb windows recovery but would like the

convenience of being able to do it phone side.

thanks
