[Desire Android Development] jkond:
Personally I dont like that u have set the CPU speed to 1113 by default. So if someone doesnt want to have his CPU O/C'd, he has to install setcpu...

Other than that rom is nice...
[Desire Android Development] DroidBois:
Is the CPU overclocked by default? I definitely do not want this. I live in Australia, and it is summer now, and it can get very hot here in summer. I don't want to damage my phone as I often take it out when I go running and to the beach. I am worried my phone will blow up if I overclock it!

Someone help please before I install the SD ROM to try it out.
[Desire Android Development] DroidBois:
Just installed, all looking good here except for my concerns about un-necessary overclocking. Curious why after restoring all my apps I still only have 40MB internal memory (same with LeeDroid too) - seems something is chewing up system space - possibly not related to the ROM though.

I just tried to move a heap of apps to the SD card with no luck. I will also clear all caches although with other ROMs this also made little difference.
[Desire Android Development] hongkongtom:
dear Alex, you're the man! will it work on your newest 2.1 or (after)?

besides, does anybody try 2.1 data2sd with a class10 (16gb) card (I have KingMax myself)? I had problem with 1.8 with data2whatever.
[Desire Android Development] lkbfreak:
AdFree

AdFree works just fine for me :)
[Desire Android Development] DroidBois:
Just tried installing, everything fine except a problem where the screen would not turn back on requiring a battery pull. Any ideas? How do you guys restore your appetite and settings, using Titanium?
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
its in...but can not be updated...new version today (data2sd)... :)

flash this.. : http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=474182&d=1293452321

this is the screenstate_scaling 998mhz instead of 1113 mhz :)

with kind regards..Alex
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
think you flashed the a2sd+ version....with a2sd+ some data part of the apps (apk`s) go to internal memory...and you internal memory decreases

this is why i´m so interested in data2sd :)

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
yes..should work...this have nothing to do with version nr. :)

data2sd version is much better as 1.8 data2whatever

Hi. I tried the "Rosie (Launcher) Drag and Drop in Helicopter View" mod (from the first page) at v2.0 D2SD rom, but I always got htc sense force close error after the system up. I put back the original v2.0 rom's rosie.apk, and the FC gone.
[Desire Android Development] BashyUK:
Droidbois stop! Stop! Stop!

Why are you manually moving apps to the sd card?! If you are using an ext partition then the rom will have already done this for you. By manually moving them they go to fat 32 so it's likely to screw up your functionality as the script will be looking at your ext partition for the apps. If you want to do this then get rid of the ext partition. Although this then takes you back to being completely standard and you won't have any room at all.

As Alex says data still goes to your phone when using A2SD + just not as much.
[Desire Android Development] hongkongtom:
really? thanks Alex. I was having great problem with my class 10 16gb with all verson of data2whatever (able to flash, but once the rom got loaded, kept getting FC with all the components in Sense and unusable), people at data2whatever said it is software related, I hope it works on your rom w/ data2sd. (the card is currently working OKAY on MCR r10 A2SD+, but I got some weird figures, having Write speed 9mb / Read speed 6mb by SD card speed test):confused: any clue?

will report back!

I just updated to Alex-V_2.1_HTC_Desire_data2sd-ext_adfree fix but my SD card now is always Mounted ReadOnly .

I did create previously a partition of 512MB for the DHD ROM, which I formatted prior to installing this rom.

Is there a step i missed to cause my card to be read only?

Your help is appreciated, thanks!
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Yes..its for 2.09 and 2.10...did not found a working for 2.29 yet....hope i find one in themes thread... :)

[Desire Android Development] DroidBois:
I was just seeing if it made any difference which it didn't. I'm going to give the latest ROM a try now.

Is there anything I shouldn't restore with Titanium after flashing? Items marked in red?

Can anyone help me with a description of Data2SD compared to App2SD+ on the wiki?

Alex, do you have a change log to put up in the Wiki for the latest version?
[Desire Android Development] deepakoffline:
Alex.... friend please put mods and themes on the first post for the current version only as its very confusing. Its a request.

Thanks

Best Wishes :)
[Desire Android Development] DroidBois:
Perhaps you can help us by adding this to the Wiki too. See link in my sig below (and consider adding it to your sig).
[Desire Android Development] DroidBois:
Is it normal for it to keep flashing up the quietly brilliant logo after installing this ROM? Is that a 'boot loop'? Has been doing it for about 5 minutes now.

Edit --

Whoops, just remembered I forgot the wiping procedure, may explain it!
[Desire Android Development] lkbfreak:
For SD card read only problems do following:

- connect your phone to pc in sd storage mode

- when sd card is read by pc, right-click, properties, Tools, Error checking (enable all options)

- let pc check for errors and when finished safely remove sc card. Try rebooting the phone.

If this is not working with using your device, try same procedure using sd card reader.

This problems generaly occures when the sd card is not properly removed from pc system (it happened to me many times - just don't panic! :D )

Hope this will help someone.

[Desire Android Development] lkbfreak:
Just one Q: how safe OC is? This ROM is set to 1113 MHz - is there any risk of damaging the device's internals? THX

p.s. I do use SetCPU so it's not a problem to downclock it
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Thanks for the tip :)

And here is the screenstate 998 mhz if you want...i posted one before...but this is only the screenstate script i changed :)

But i think 1113 mhz is no problem...there are kernels outside with more than 1113 mhz but i think its to much..

with kind regards..Alex
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
if you use the data2sd version..its normal that it takes longer...because of the automatic script...

with kind regards..Alex
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
the kernel in the rom have the sd speed fix in...so maybe its better....I read in data2whatever/data2sd or ext some days ago about a similar problem...there was a user saying that if he use a class 6 or 10 it was really unstable and if he use the same rom and script with only class 4 it was much better....

I think in normal Sense (not hd rom) data2sd is very stable and good..only feel a little difference...on hd roms (new sense) the difference between a2sd+ and data2sd is much more noticeable

with kind regards..Alex
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
hope i have a bit time today for this...best whishes too...with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] hongkongtom:
um..Alex, sorry, I don't really get it, what's the difference of this file than the one you made on page 131? if I just want my phone to have screenstate cpu governance but with normal max 998mhz (no overclock), which one should I apply? thx
[Desire Android Development] hongkongtom:
well, no luck, the class 10 card started to give FC on Alex 2.1 Data2SD again...anyone encounter this kinda class 10 card issue?
[Desire Android Development] DroidBois:
Installed, but Sense keeps crashing (get the white Quietly Brilliant screen) and I am prompted to re-enter my SIM PIN. Any thoughts? I wiped everything before I flashed, and have restored settings with Titanium (was using LeeDroid).

Not sure what's happened here but I have to again flash back to my previous ROM (LeeDroid 2.2f).

Anyone else having issues?
[Desire Android Development] hmsq:
Got it working again!

The only thing I did was to install another rom and then clear cache\dalvik\sdext and then install the rom again, and it worked.
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:

[Desire Android Development] hongkongtom:
2.1 data2sd is working fine w/ my 16gb class 4 toshiba, well, might have to stick w/ my older card then...but, the new rom is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy faster than data2whatever on my class 4, impressive! but still have to try to use it with overclock disable :)

referring to your response, in order to disable the overclock in general, all i need to do is to apply your newer script for screenstate? am I correct?
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Yes...with this script you should get 998 mhz default...its the only change i made...and the kernels default is also 998 mhz i think :)

with kind regards..Alex
[Desire Android Development] hmsq:
The UOT kitchen is working again and now has 2.1 support so did not need to upload framework, so it worked.

I also added [SENSE KERNEL] 2.6.32.27 (BFS/BFQ/SLQB/HAVS/OC1190Mhz/EXT4/CIFS/TUN/AUFS) with HAVS@875mV, setcpu still shows this is overclocked.

Not had any issues so far running HAVS@875mV with your default overclock!

Maybe thats the problem

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] vidmas:
Bootloop is strange - phone loads for full only with another sim without PIN. If I use norma sim card with pin , he bootloops.

2.29.405.5 yes, it can be a problem reason. Neo is too lazy to fix themes,maded by himself.

Thinking to change rom to another one, maybe to yours.

[Desire Android Development] roalex:
Hi, im playing around with the HD rom, its quite nice.

But, always is a but ;)

Im using a Custom MTD setup (140Mb system,5 cache, 192 mb is /data)

As im trying to use the storage in a smart way, i find myself with about 170 MB of non used internal storage, since it holds only application data.

The apks go to Sdext and also Dalvik. Id like to revers the dalvik back on internal (/data), that way i will gain more speed (internal is faster then sd by far).

What would be a clean way of doing this ? clean meaning not rebooting recovery and moving dalvik myself but rather affect the init.d file or a2sd script.

Thanks :)

Later Edit

basically i wonder where is the symlink done, i even try to do it manualy and at reboot it moves back to /sd-ext, looked a bit in the init.d didnt find much, which is pretty confusing since in the update.zip is a move_cache_sd script ><
[Desire Android Development] rvenes:
How can i check if app2sd works?

I made 1 swap and 1 ext3 partition with Rom Manager

256 and 512 mb.

[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:

with kind regards...ALex
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
You can try if you use the a2sd+ version (in data2sd its controlled by the script)...remove "the move_cache_sd" from rom.zip folder and from update script from rom....otherwise....melethron work on this and let me know..if he have it changed in the script

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] roalex:
im using the Alex-V_1.5_HD_a2sd+.zip

I did try this without luck though, the script is in the rom.zip but its not the one moving it after you manualy undone it in recovery, suppose its all in the 40a2sd in init.d
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
this can be....mmhhh if i have more time i can make a version with dalvik internal (if i forget it please let me know again..OK..?)

Always check the Alex-V Wiki first and after that search in the thread, if you still don't get the answer, best thing to do is nandroid backup and install, if it doesn't work, restore and let others know, you lose nothing but end up contributing :-)
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Not sure if that version works with 2.29...so here is the one for 2.29

But from the other point bashy is right...check the wiki :) :) :)

[Desire Android Development] DroidBois:
Going to give it another shot today, and see if I can avoid that problem where the phone (Sense?) kept crashing and I got that white-screen-of-death constantly, and the problem where the screen didn't turn back on so was stuck with a black screen.

All I did was restore apps from Titanium, although one time I also installed Titanium from .zip with the ROM, I probably should have done that after I had booted the first time and let it settle in.
[Desire Android Development] BashyUK:
@Droidbois try MyBackup Root it's free in the market and is getting good reviews. Not restored using it myself but maybe try it instead of tb?
[Desire Android Development] DroidBois:
Dang just used Titanium Backup before flashing, but will check it out. I think I paid a good few dollars for TB too.
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Bashy made a good How to in the wiki for tb... :) :)

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] BashyUK:
Droidbois has to take the main credit for getting the Wiki going, we just need to make sure it's kept up to date...btw, Alex you need to add a link to the original themes used in your roms so people can easily go back to them :-)

I'm about to install v2.1 a2sd+ to compare how it is with HD, I'm back at work next week and need a stable phone, I think HD and also d2sd is nearly there but not quite, I'll see though once I have used 2.1 for a few days. I will probably find I want to come back to HD and/or 500MB+ free space :-)

Also, like I said earlier, the browser throws me out but also some other apps just suddenly close, like XDA app...strange.

but yes...for stability and speed at work 2.1 should be better :)

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:

but you can also flash the latest coutts kernel (allows 128 mhz) and make a screen off profile with it...

Check the button...load on boot and you are done :)

Alex,

MyBackup Root failed me! Luckily I did a backup using TB as well, all apk+data restored via MB gave FC's, re-did with TB, all ok, so for me it's TB FTW!!! :-)
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Did you clicked superuser and root rights in my backup before..?

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] DroidBois:
Installed Alex-V_2.1_HTC_Desire-data2sd-ext_adfree fix.zip after complete wipe, booted, let settle in for a while, set up Google account to install TB, and then clicked 'restore everything'. Let it run overnight, and screen was black this morning, so did a battery pull. Ran well for a while, but then froze a short while ago needing a battery pull. Been up for about two hours now, ticking away happily. Battery down to 84% after two hours. Another symptom was the Svox Classic voice engine was stuttering quite a bit too, it never did that before.

Using 16GB Class 2 Sandisk card with 1GB EXT3 partition (wiped using recovery before install too).

I am thinking I should go back to the app2sd version as specified in the Wiki if these problems keep happening, and see if that makes any difference. I need stability more than performance.

And yep, it just froze again, I had File Manager open and pressed 'home' and it's frozen on the File Manager screen, nothing happening.

Interestingly when it froze before, the notification light kept flashing, so could be a UI problem?

Going to try the app2sd+ version anyhow. EXT3 partition now re-formatted directly with GParted.

Installed. Attempting install of Titanium Backup using .zip flash and will then recover all settings and apps. Wish me luck!

TB flash failed - error line 2 - aborted - will set up Gmail account and install TB manually.
[Desire Android Development] DroidBois:
How do you restore with TB? Batch -> Restore All Apps and Data?
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Thats why data2sd is still in development...for some reason it works good with some phones..and with some not :) I have the old 4gb sd card that come with the phone and no probs :)

If probs with data2sd use a2sd+ for the moment...will look to other scripts

with kind regards...Alex
