I've installed the gmail update. But now gmail isn't working anymore, it keeps FC. I cleared the cache and data, but it still would not start.

Also I forgot to do a nandroid, so I'm a bit gutted.

Any idea how I can sort this out?

Cheers
[Desire Android Development] follettoverde:
Thanks, but i don't use SDK/ADB (but i will install sdk on my PC one day). I need a .zip flashable via recovery
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
i saw one in the first site of rcmixhd thread ;)

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] follettoverde:
tried, but it doesn't change anything i will look for another one
[Desire Android Development] follettoverde:
Sorry, double post
[Desire Android Development] WhoDunnit:
Thanks, solved it manually through adb. All is well now.

I have tried both provided versions, but still changing the gps/bluetooth/wifi status through settings is not reflected in the powercontrol notification. Well, it is a pity, but not a pain ;)

Alright, I can do that, but what would be the benefit of using HD ROM? Is it faster, better for battery life, or just the next Sense UI?

Anyway, this ROM seems to run perfectly, so I am happy anyway :)
[Desire Android Development] radiohitec:
I think he's looking for the orginal keyboard from desire, the Z is different but have big buttons.

@ the ROM from rcmixhd he haves put it in the ROM self, mayby possible make a flash from it ?

Alex:

Have here your ROM stable and fast, have now the kernel: http://neophyte.vipme.com/gpl/kerne...-CFS-B-CFQ-GPU+-SDfix-LZma-v17-1_NeoPhyTe.zip Try it on this rom!

Hi Alex, what do you think about this update for data2ext?

Hey Alex,

been using your ROM's for a while, and I must say they're amazing. Just a stock, fast and clean Sense rom.

But dude, you

must

get yourself a new topic start! ;) Can't find a thing in it, especially since your sharing it with your Sense HD rom now!

Hi Alex,

My launcher was installed in phone memory. Anyway I tried to do what u suggested but still the same.

Can u suggest any other solution...gazzilion thanks!
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
You can also use the older htc ime mod....all new text selection things are in system not in ime so all will work :)

Download:

i also use it :)

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
to 1. should work (worked on my phone)....maybe reflash the rom...if you really need it

2.

-of course the new sense... :)

-i have the feeling that some things like album run faster

-new text selction

-with the data2ext much more internal memory

-some new apps

-on notification bar you can switch through the last things....

-look on the videos from rcmixhd:

[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
thanks will look into this :)

edit: test it now...maybe for a day...

edit2: its more stable..and together with a new kernel i test very good...more speed and more stable :) will update the hd rom (also 1.8 data2sd)

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
yes you are right...i will arrange a bit more if i have time :)

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Maybe a problem of the launcher..? Did you try it with rosie..?

change to another version or try a other launcher

edit: also read...it can be that the launcher is starts before card is mounted...maybe try to move the apps (not the launcher) the apps you have in that folder to phone memory

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
if all is ok...i post a update for hd rom and 1.8 app2ext rom tomorrow evening ... :)

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] ljesh:
I am giving a test to this ROM (the a2sd+ version). I hope I will finally stay on a ROM for much longer then a month :)))
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
why not :p :p ;) :)

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] bluelavender:
Alex, when i tried to install your HD Rom (with data2ext), it failed with error "fail to format sdext". I already have ext2 in the card though , along with fat32. and i can confirm the ext2 is correctly partitioned, because other roms can read it and i partition it using linux ...

any advice ? :) Thanks :)

BL
[Desire Android Development] ljesh:
Installed and running it for an hour now. Going to sleep now and will set it up tomorrow.

Danke Alex, good job :)
[Desire Android Development] ocihc80:
Hi Alex,

I changed my launcher to ADW, now works better even it gets a little icon delay when I restarts... Pardon me from my ignorance but what is rosie? never use this before...

Lastly can you please let me know how to install your new HD ROM? do i need to do the data partitioning or just wipe and flash it?

Thanks again on your outstanding work and support!
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Mmmhh..no idea at the moment...maybe make it again..although your are sure its correct...me and other dont have a problem..so i dont know...sorry...

With kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Rosie is the htc launcher :)

For install the hd rom you must format the sd card with a big fat 32 partition and a second ext (ext 2 run good for me) with 1 gb

backup the content from the card first

After that copy the rom on sd and flash :)
[Desire Android Development] niels_kievits:
I'm flashing the HD Rom right now. Tell me Alex, does a big German beer over there cost about the same as a big Dutch beer over here? Coz i'm buying you one :). Cheers!

Edit: first boot always seems to take soooo long :D

Edit2: darn, lockup in bootscreen, must have forgotten a wipe. Trying to flash again now. (Don;t worry Alex, you're still getting that beer :))

Edit3: SUCCESS!! First boot still took a while though...
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
i think so :p ;) Big Thanks :)

also system needs some time to be stable...the setup after first start is a bit slow...but after some minutes all is ok :)

with kind regards..Alex
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
if all is ok..i will update tommorow the hd rom to 1.1 and the 1.8 app2ext to 1.9 with automatic ext2 script :) much more speed (less lags)

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] niels_kievits:
Can we upgrade to that or is a wipe required?

If so, I won't put much time in setting up my phone agter the flash of the HD 1.0 rom, cous I'd have to do it all over again.
[Desire Android Development] le poulpe:
BTW, a new version of Gmail is available : 2.3.21 ;)
[Desire Android Development] radiohitec:
Hey Alex, how have you done this, install your old rom, no reboot, install the new script and than reboot (before begin make a 3th partion?
[Desire Android Development] Pyr03k:
can someone tell me benefits / differences between regular rom and the hd version?

cheers
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Have not much time today but here is 1.1 :)

Changelog:

Alex-V HD 1.1

-Changed Kernel to Coutts99 (big thanks for

-change the app2ext script to app2ext2 (only ext2) (big thanks to melethron)

-give the rom some minutes to be stable

-Faster and less lags :)

-the best i test was with oc to 1113 mhz and (maybe a task manager)

with kind regards..:Alex
[Desire Android Development] dkodr:
I guess a full wipe is actually needed when coming from 1.0 to 1.1, or at least recommended. Tried upgrading and ended with a bootloop even though my partition was ext2 in the first place.

- edit ----------

Still no luck. Even after a full wipe :-\
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
mmhh..runs good on my phone...mmmhhh...maybe its from the havs kernel...flash this kernel direct after flash the rom

http://mirror.couttstech.com/android/index.php?dir=bravo/kernel/

or this from 1.0 hd

[Desire Android Development] Pyr03k:
Thanks for your work Alex,

im going to test flash the HD rom....Do I need a swap partition? if so what size?

EDIT - get boot loop on HD 1.1 just loops the quiety brilliant animation ...very very fast and loops
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
mmhh..can you also try the kernel i post(one post higher)..?

if its also bootloop...i must search what it causes...sorry for...it run perfect on mine

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] peterfeter:
still bootloop.. install rom without reboot an install kernel, same problem
[Desire Android Development] radiohitec:
Heey Alex,

I try your new ROM give you a update!

I have now 3 partitions, do I need that?

Update: Hangs on first logo, try another kernel now

Have the second logo now a boot loop on the second, same as the rest of the flash maniacs!

I see a lot of errors on logcat!
[Desire Android Development] follettoverde:
Hi Alex, wich Coutts jernel did you use for 1.1 HD, HAVS @925mv or not HAVS one?
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
I remove the download of Alex-V 1.1 and see what cause the bootloop...Sorry to this...i have run it on my phone without any error....but thanks for report :)

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Havs @875mv....

[Desire Android Development] Pyr03k:
still boot loops with svs kernel.... strange that works on your device Alex.
[Desire Android Development] radiohitec:
Can you tell me exactly your partitions alex?
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
yes strange...will look into this...sorry again

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
only a the normal fat32 and a 1gb ext2...rest come from the script

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] Pyr03k:
no problem Alex these thing happen when doing something new. thanks for all effort you put in

can anyone confirm if HD 1.0 had same problem or if this ran fine?
[Desire Android Development] radiohitec:
Runs fine, with little lags when shutdown, lag on coming up lockscreen and some applications, but runs fine (this problem is in all the dataext ROMS, how faster your SD card how faster your ROM)!
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
maybe a older a2sd+ rom in hd...? Will not give up with hd rom because its much better as normal desire i think

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] radiohitec:
HD ROM is good, but problems with DATA2EXT not stabil enough, but the defs working hard for a solution http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=859419 there is a solution now: NILFS2 see this: http://www.usenix.org/event/lsf08/tech/shin_SSD.pdf

Now wait....
[Desire Android Development] Pyr03k:
I love the new hd sense but its too laggy for my every use guess down to running sdext off external memory.
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Yes i saw and follow the threads :)

thanks...ALex
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
maybe 2 versions like all other rom creators...one with old a2sd+ and one with a newer better app2ext

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] Pyr03k:
alex is app2ext faster as in reduce lag?

was this what was included in hd 1.1 version?
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
app2ext ist faster if it has no lags...thats the ground i change the script in 1.1 to a other one...

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] ocihc80:
Thanks again Alex!

Sorry guys for being such a noob :o, but can anyone please let me know the procedure how to do the second ext(ext 2) with 1GB ( Can I do this on ROM manager) or point me on the right thread? I only know how to make a full fat 32 partition on my SD card ...

Many many thanks again!
[Desire Android Development] Darksmith:
You should use Ubuntu GParted because the rom manager only supports 512MB.
[Desire Android Development] Pyr03k:
if you have Amon-Ra recovery it has the ability to partition SD card I like it better then clockwork.

anothet option for you but any Linux based partition program will do it
[Desire Android Development] BashyUK:
Hi

I want to install 1.8 as you can see from my signature I am currently unrooted. I have been waiting for a ruu but it doesn't look like it will happen and I'm now low on phone storage so need a2sd+ as I had previously.

Anyway my question is if I root and take a nandroid backup of my phone now and then needed to send my phone away for a warranty fix, if I restore this backup I guess I would just need to Uninstall superuser and clockwork mod and re install the stock recovery sw. Am I right in assuming this and if so how do I do these steps? Any links or answers greatly appreciated.
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
In principle this can go...but have not tested...

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] Pyr03k:
I dont think you can do nandroid until your rooted so you cant take a backup of your unrooted phone.

if you root and require to return to unrooted just flash an ruu offical update from htc and your phone will be back to normal
[Desire Android Development] BashyUK:
Thanks for the reply.

I think you misunderstood though or I wasn't clear. I have rooted previously and just recently got my phone back. The ruu I need is unavailable, t mobile uk slcd and I don't think that t mobile would accept wwe ruu. My main questions are how to remove superuser and clockwork mod and how to restore stock recovery. That way I just restore my original backup, remove the above and am back to normal. If it's possible that is.
[Desire Android Development] Pyr03k:
the only way I know how to revert back to stock recovery is through flashing the ruu this removes superuser and puts hboot and recovery back to normal.
[Desire Android Development] BashyUK:
I've decided I'll risk using a wwe ruu should I ever need to. So all I need to decide now is which rom of Alex's, 1.8 or hd? Recommendations?
[Desire Android Development] Pyr03k:
1.8 is fast light and stable with good battery

hd is cutting edge has new htc sense which is awesome but at moment a little unstable and laggy so depends how risky you like it :-)

alex only just released hd version so expect this to improve over time as he gets to grips with it
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Will upload HD 1.2 with stable a2sd+ in the morning...its fast and stable like a normal/classic sense :)

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] BashyUK:
Sweet! I'll go 1.8 tonight and give you guys a couple of weeks on hd to let me know how it is. I'll make it my new year rom :-p
[Desire Android Development] Pyr03k:
good choice :-) 1.8 is awesomeness just works great!

if the lag and stability can be ironed out with hd will be incredible.... new htc is really nice. was looking forward to Gingerbread and thought google were going to up the ante on the UI and bring something special but from what I seen.......they haven't done a lot to it! so to me HTC is the best looking android UI out there
[Desire Android Development] Pyr03k:
ok if that statement true I'm excited..... :-) if you can make hd sense as smooth as regular ill be a happy man :-)

does this new version still have data2ext? or is it just app2sd+?
[Desire Android Development] BashyUK:
Ah I'm back from the unrooted wilderness. 1.8 running smooth, apps I have no use for are gone and 123mb free instead of 12mb along with a great version of Espresso, percentages :-)

Btw, I noticed that the rom runs oc, does it reduce on screen standby? Should I use setcpu or no need? Any other kernel recommended or stick to the standard rom one? For now anyway :-p

Alex does it again!
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
I have tested now 2 days...and I don't can say anything other....its really smooth... :)
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
He he :) thanks....

Yes it have screenstate...auto 245 mhz on screen off

I´m very satisfied with siberes kernel it have all new things in...its compatible to extra´s of richards kernel and have speed fix for sd and batterie fix (load 100%)

With kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] Pyr03k:
Alex does this new version your testing have a2sd+, data2sd or data2ext ??
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
nothing from both...its the classic app2sd+ like the 1.8 you have installed (only one ext3 parition...not fat32+fat32 (app2sd new way) or (fat32+ext2 app2ext) both have speed lags) so i hope that the data2ext devs found a good solution :)
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
new HD Rom online :) ...look here:

[Desire Android Development] Pyr03k:
I agree both new ways seem to me to be a bit unstable and open to data loss.

so with new room I need just 1 ext3? any size?
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
the idea is good...i love to see more than 500 mb for internal memory...so i hope for a really good and new script (testing all scripts)

yes...min is 512 mb..i have made 1gb because the systemapps are also on sdext..because of the bigger size of the hd rom (it have nothing to do with data2ext...)

with kind regards..Alex
[Desire Android Development] Pyr03k:
ok thanks Alex I already have a 1gb ext2 ill convert to ext3 same size and flash when I get home

thanks for all your work

[Desire Android Development] howdid:
! BIG thx for this excellent rom :D

MfG :)
[Desire Android Development] Nutsonfire:
Alex, maybe this is a noob question, since I put 1.8 my battery life is not so good. When I check cpu speed it only goes minimum speed or maximum speed, nothing in between. If

Is it normal? normally it should vary a bit between all the speeds depending on CPU load, no?

Which other kernel can I try? maybe I will try your new HD rom^^
[Desire Android Development] vidmas:
but why did you need so much free internal memory, if you have 16gb sd card?? What is a reason? Speed, stability or something other?
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
he he :) thanks for using :)

with kind regards..Alex
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
mmhhh i got from all sites a positiv feedback for battery.....maybe load full and in recovery make a batt stats wipe...

Go to set cpu and close it...and than i can see the cpu mhz in android system info...

you can use and flash the kernel you want...this kernel is from sibere...maybe try his svs kernel...i posted the link in the last 10 sites i think

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
only for apps and cache etc...because on a2sd+ some apps still need some data in internal memory...so it goes down...if we have 500-1gb on internal memory...we don´t have memory problems in feature...and you can install apps....apps...apps

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] Nutsonfire:
Hi Alex, i did test with setcpu and it was doing the same thing. The other day i tested oxygen rom and normal version was good but classic version had same cpu speed problem. I wipe everytime before installing rom.

Anyway now i am testing your hd rom and its very nice, good work! I think in this one my cpu speed is working normal again.

[Desire Android Development] carlo0810:
hi alex, this has been my rom for a month now, everything is perfect, and now i'm wondering, i know your busy, but have you ever considered making a classic one? same features as your sense rom but w/o Sense? like an AOSP / Stock android version?

wanted to try the look of stock android but hoping you will be the one to make it so it's bug-free :D
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Yes...i know...i would make such a classic rom....but i would make a one with aosp lockscreen...but also the incoming call screen (aosp) and that is not easy because this is not in dialer or phone.apk...its in framework....so i need to take a aosp rom and make it htc sense compatible....(need a htc sense kernel that work with aosp rom)

I saw such a rom for a other phone...it was aosp google rom...but with all apk´s from htc sense......I think that was the best combination for a classic rom...or...?!?

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] BashyUK:
Hi Alex/All,

On v1.8

Few q's/comments

Got the new market today, was a bit of a surprise, looks pretty good. However, I can't install the new Gmail, managed to install new Google Maps fine (but in the old market version)...any ideas, is it because of the new market or would it not work via the market on this ROM anyway? Anyone got the apk?

Loving the power notification mod, somehow I missed that first time, it was 1 of my fav features from DeFroST! :D

Also, I installed Terminal Emulator but it just FC's every time I launch it..

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
G-Mail never installs over market (on any rom) and also its not because the new market :)

Here is a update.zip of it...and also my version of Terminal Emulator...no probs with it :)

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] BashyUK:
Thanks a lot for that. Terminal works fine now unfortunately gmail won't install. It says installation complete in clockwork but it's not updated when I check it. Tried extracting and installing via root explorer and it says did not install. I checked file permissions.

I have the 2.3 version which I got off a post on XDA. Can you check this version you posted please.
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
mmhh...got it from here and made a update.zip

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=847035

one tip (i read)

try the following... with root explorer, go in to the system folder, select RW, go to app and again select RW and delete the gmail.apk...

if you have terminal, open it and enter "su" (no quotes) once you have super user access enter the following...

mount o-remount, rw /system

cp /sdcard/gmail.apk /system/app/gmail.apk

exit

exit

with kind regards..Alex
[Desire Android Development] BashyUK:
Thanks man,

I downloaded the apk from the link you gave, used terminal to remove the existing version then ran the commands, as you instructed but I already knew them :-p All done. Maybe it's a quirk in Root Explorer. Terminal is much more satisfying anyway!
[Desire Android Development] Pnaky:
Hi Alex,

I uploaded update to my ftp - could you check it? I think it could be helpful for your new rom version.

Alex-V 1.8 to Alex-V HD 1.2

Hi,

I'm using Alex-V 1.8 now and I'm happy with it. A few questions:

1) Am I right that developing Alex-V (non HD) will be slowly put out and most of Alex effort will put to Alex-V HD?

2) If it's true should I consider changing my ROM to HD version?

3) Is there a simple way to "upgrade" from non HD to HD version without reinstaling and reconfiguring phone and all apps? I've tried to simple install HD version without wipe but phone was laggy and unstable....

Regards
