mmhhh...you are right...i saw this problems on other rom threads also....the problem is i don´t have this problems...also not with the other roms....so can you check this if you wipe and flash again...and i heard also that it give problems with titanium backup.....i take my backup (also on market) and i don´t have problems with it....so if you have a nandroid backup....restore it load my backup from market...make a backup and than flash the rom again and see if it´s bad or good... :)

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] chipyy:
Ok thanks, might give that a bash this afternoon at some point.
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
no problem...hope you can give me a feedback :)
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
just saw one more tip:

For you market issues: Try to reset market cache and data if you use a backup
[Desire Android Development] chipyy:
I think I might just try installing my apps fresh and only using TB to restore data. I've gone back to my previous backup, but thinking about it Market Links weren't working that will on this one either, so I'm not sure using MyBackup will actually help!
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
i understand..and think you are right with only data over tb

with kind regards..Alex
[Desire Android Development] chipyy:
I tried this but it turns out MyBackup is a steaming pile of ****, backed up 35 apps and only restored 10, repeatedly froze at 99% done, and the UI is horrible, so I gave up. I think my backups might be missing their market links. tbh I have coughed up the dough to bake an r7 ROM on MoDaCo and I'm just gonna try that for a bit, install my apps manually and just use TB to restore data, and hope it doesn't all get ruined this time.
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Ok ;) then i wish you good luck :):):)

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] BeeGee_Tokyo:
Ups wrong thread, please ignore.
[Desire Android Development] chipyy:
Thanks mate, thankyou for the build anyway, I'm sure there is nothing wrong with it, I think my backups are just screwed and I got curious about r7..

To put it in context, I am a test engineer for Nokia, I test prototype wireless modem platforms. So, most of my day is spent flashing software onto phones and then running tests to find the bugs in them. Since I spend all day doing it anyway, I'm getting a bit tired of doing it with my own phone! In fact if it weren't for the fact that I kept running out of internal storage, I would still be on stock. ;)
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
I can believe it ;) :p

[Desire Android Development] chipyy:
Does anyone know how to view the contents of the ext3 partition?
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
i think paragon partitions manager for windows or if you would only see how much mb...quick info from the market ;)
[Desire Android Development] chipyy:
Nah, want to see the actual contents... I'm trying to work out how, after doing a full wipe, and flashing my r7 bake, I have 100mb of my A2SD+ storage used up before I've installed anything!
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
mmhh don´t know...if you have it let me know... ;)
[Desire Android Development] djide:
Alex,

You are the man...exactly what I have been looking for....as close to the original as possible.....THANKS

Today my Desire had an issue with sdcard in only read mode...sadly i don't have an usb cable to check partition.

Before i was using the "fix" in vold.fstab, now i restored the original one(the mod consist in just put 1 rather than "auto") and seem ok for now.

The strange thing is that yesterday all goes wonderful, and started bother me this morning.

And it's the first time i have this problem with a rom, that's strange.
[Desire Android Development] dennis.l:
Thanks Alex for providing this. (I have forgotten my manners..)

I have been using your ROM for the last 2 days. it has been very stable. everything works great. I love the fact that it comes looking stock and you can customize it. it is a lot better than having a rom that looks all modded and having to bring it back to stock look.

Things I like the best:

- standard HTC boot animation

- patch for percentage on the battery

- adblock enable

- patch to able to write to the system partition

- works fast and no lags

Thanks again
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Interesting..but don´t know...i did not have this issue...so if its ok now...who knows..but thanks for report if i have it..i can define it (hope its the right word..in german: eingrenzen)

[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Ok...i read much about radios and RIL (Radio Interface Layer) (some drivers and so on)

and : Radio + Compatible RIL = Max battery performance.

So i will test the next days..with the original radio of 2.14 which is the base of my rom

if anyone is also interested to test the original radio (32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2) here it is:

[Desire Android Development] boelze:
Can the undervolt feature be disabled in v1.6? I really like the idea of your rom, but I don't want to mess around with voltage and cpu speed.

I just want "as-stock-as-possible" rom with some little mods like % battery.

Anyways, keep up your great work and thank you for sharing it with us!
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Thanks... :)

and no problem.. : Delete (because of system rw access) the 01undervolt from \system\etc\init.d.... with root explorer or android mate

Maybe the module undervolt.ko also..its in system\lib\modules...but i think its enough to not load the module

after that restart the phone and check if its disabled with:

open a terminal and type

su

lsmod

if you not see undervolt..the module is not loaded :)

if this not work..open the rom.zip and delete the file and flash again

with kind regards..Alex
[Desire Android Development] malaga82:
I have the original base from 2.10.245.2, that is 30_2.

Do you need something to know about it?

I don't have any issue, with this and other roms so far.
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
i also...but thanks..i did not know that 2.10 have also the 30_2 radio...so i think this radio seems to be the best..because i extract it from the original 2.14

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] Pyr03k:
Alex, do I need to use anything to take advantage of under volt other then using setcpu?
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
No because undervolt is loaded over a module...use set cpu for best battery... :)
[Desire Android Development] boelze:
I have this radio running since a month or so now. I use this rom by teppic74 which is completly stock except root.

I get 3 days worth of battery out of the combination (see signature) without any undervolt, setCPU or anything. Meaning i charge my desire every 3rd day.

I haven't tried all roms and radios available here (especially not the newest one because i read some guys seem to lose battery performance permanently oO) but I think this combination is pretty nice.

greetings
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Thanks ;)

i would my rom clean but with the extras from the big rom´s ...and also with the freedom to decide yourself what you what and what not...i don´t know if you get 3 days...i have a mix of 2.14 and 2.10...... teppic´s rom (also a great rom) is only 2.10

the next rom is eigher a 2.10 or anything new...i wait for something new

[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Ok was wrong thread :)
[Desire Android Development] malaga82:
Trying this rom in past 2 days i noticed a huge use in battery.

I don't know what, but just woke up from standby and browse for a file with root explorer, i lost 2% of battery, and 3% with a call of 1min.

I noticed also that the cpu has an high usage of 998MHz...with android system information i get 56% of whole time a 245MHz and 37% at 998MHz...and it's almost in standby.

I don't have time to watch but i think something is working properly with the screen state, or al least with powersave state.

For powersave in sense rom, other devs use 90screenstate_scaling, at least we should try it.

Just to mention, today i lost almost 50% of battery, while with OD i lost near 25%...at parity of usage of course.

I didn't know if this usage is normal for sense rom, cause i was using OD by far.

If i could, i made this rom on test to a friend that use always sense rom, and waiting for a feedback.

Cheers :)
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
This is normal for a sense Rom !!

You can not compare qd or aosp roms with sense roms...the sense roms always use more battery....

And we dont have the kernel source for sense roms....so no dircect undervolt or such things...that the kernel of aosp/qd can

All what we can do is..some things with Modules..i also have done...

I have max about 1% per hour.....maybe load the battery full...go to recovery and make a batt stats wipe

You can use 2 kinds of cpu covenour...one Version direct without use of Set cpu (Set speed automatic to 800 mhz and in sleep to 245 mhz) i use the second Version (because ms rom is very clean) With use of Set cpu...you can decide yourself what you want...do you want eg. the wohle day 600 mhz set it...do you want in sleep 245 mhz..set the powersave covenour in a sleep Profile

[Desire Android Development] malaga82:
I don't know Alex if sense roms use more power than aosp roms, but i found that using this file, i get a fair use of the cpu.

With this i get 84% at 245MHz and 13% at 998 with screen off, against that values i said before.

I just putted in /system/etc/init.d , used it in sense stock rom...and i think it works quite well in Alex rom too.

Give it a try if you want ;)
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
ok...thanks..will try it ;)

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

with what app you get this measurements (values)....? its not Set Cpu or ..?

edit: update the rom actual to complete 2.10...so i must edit all module to work with the kernel from 2.10

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] malaga82:
I used Android System Info from Market.

Tab System, then CPU and you see how many times the cpu went at each frequency.

I used it since stock froyo and i think works pretty fine.

And I have a feeling u and neo are working together ;), I read he also released his next version...

Anyways thanx once again...i am downloading will let u know about it later...need to go.....
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Neo also released..WoW...no this is a....(whats the word for Zufall) coincidence, fluke, fortune, happenstance, fortuity or random..sorry don´t know

Neo is a good teacher...he have helped me much...big big thanks neo :) but its not based on neo´s rom...its my own from the ground

I only want to have a clean build (not mixed between 2.14 and 2.10)

and have also fixed the old app2sd+ issue.. :)

i forgot...also gmail 2.3 is in the rom

edit: you can try without wipe...but if i flash a new rom i make a new nand backup before and also a titanium or my backup...backup..and wipe

for radio: both that are on post 2 work ;)

[Desire Android Development] Pyr03k:
Alex in 1.7 you have added screen state scaling....does this mean I no longer need setcpu to underclock whilst screen is off? is this now built in?
[Desire Android Development] malaga82:
good to read that you use screenstate scaling ;)

And that now it's based only on a rom.

Now i'm testing another rom, but i wll try it soon.

And yes, there is no need to use setcpu for interactive and powersave.

You may want to use it if you overclock or use other features, but i get more benefit without setcpu than have it installed.

Screenstate greatly improve the cpu state at 245Mhz in sleep, as i wrote some post ago.
[Desire Android Development] Pyr03k:
thanks for the reply this is what I thought :-) I am not interested in overclocking just improving battery life so this sounds great. The faster Kernel sounds nice too

Thanks Alex

I meant version 6.0 kicked ass! The version was initially built for o2 phones and was very good. Have you compared with version 7? I find that sometimes updates are not always best for my uses. I'm now kinda restricted on my WiFi data allowance, (a few hundred meg remaining on my allowance for just over a week).you think its worth the update.

@Alex-V

I had some issues to get your rom on my desire. After having a look at the log cat I noticed that some modules couldn't be load.

here the output

therefore I had to convert the second partion of my sd card from ext4 to ext3.

could you have a look on that issue?

anyway, thanks for the great rom!! :-)
[Desire Android Development] Shaizer:
Hey the work you've done here is really great!! I wanted to ask whether you can flash the zip for transparent launcher on Neophytes auraxtsense 6.5.2?

[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Mhhh..on mine the module´s work good...if i open a terminal on the phone and write...:

su

lsmod

i see all the modules are loaded...

maybe reflash......and do a full wipe before (also if you do it in the past)

but for ext4 and jbd2 you are right...i must edit these modules for the new kernel...and the things with no such directory is not important..i forgut to delete the links (because i test some things)

edit: attached a flashable zip ;)

hi alex, just wondering why you went back to the 2.10 build (but using a newer kernel version?) I'd just like to understand this dynamic and may explain why some themes like BrightSilence don't work on some builds. Hope you could enlighten this Android newbie.

thanks so much.
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
its the original kernel of 2.10 :) its a bit faster. :)

And i´m back to 2.10 because most people have a problem with Apn (internet) from the 2.14 o2 build (normal because there was only o2 settings in) and the themes also not work good with 2.14...so i searched a solution and make a mixed build 2.14-2.10 (version 1.6.2) but i think a mixed build is not so good because people don´t know..must i flash themes from 2.14 or 2.10..so i decide to go back to a clean build with less problems..and more compatible with themes and so on :) :)

with kind regards..Alex
[Desire Android Development] wency_99:
Thanks for the explanation. I wonder if I can flash your ROM over aurax 7.6.1 without problems to get a newer kernel?

Hi,

does auto brightness work correctly on this ROM? I mean does it really power down the LCD when it's dark (to the lowest setting!) and power up in bright sunlight (even with SLCD Desire)?
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Dont can say it for slcd but for amuled it works correct...
[Desire Android Development] kai84m:
Hey Alex,

I have a suggestion: Wouldnt it be better to take out the union fs method since we have s-off on gsm desires?

Or at least it would be better for those with S-Off to make union fs optional as mod!.

The decision to go back to 2.10 was a good one imho, since 2.14 was laggy! I wil try 1.7 as soon as i got time.

Thanks!
[Desire Android Development] Nemo0815:
Does not seem to work. If I put the Desire (SLCD) under my desk lamp it's pumping up the brightness a bit, but covering the light sensor so that it's dark only reduces the brightness very minor, almost not noticable.

Other Roms have the same issue though, wonder what that is.

Or is it normal that I you never reach the lowest (not even close!) brightness setting with the Desire set to auto brightness?
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Thanks also :)

Dont think its a problem...have you test this..?

If i make it as update.zip i loose memory...dont know why...

[Desire Android Development] delbarta:
Hi Alex,

Thank you for your hard work with the roms. I love them. :) Now, I use the new 1.7.0 version. Before it, I used the 1.6.1 ver. At night the cpu usage was ~3% in the 1.6.1 rom. In the 1.7.0 it is ~10%. All installed app. the same. I backed up and restored with titanium backup. Only change on your rom, I flashed the circle battery (with another boot animation) from the kitchen. Why higher the cpu usege? :confused:
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
So on stock rom it have worked like you said in the first post...mmhh but this was a 2.1 eclair also on slcd or..? Maybe try on a older rom from me..1.4 is based on 2.09 ...have you downgraded h boot..? I cant test it because i have no slcd

With kind regards..Alex

edit: i really see that all roms are affacted from this..but not from all Desires..on some it work and on some not..will more look into this

edit2...: it work for all i think...but not as in eclair 2.1...(will flash back to compare if i have more time...)..but its a point of personal view..for some people its not work because its not full like in eclair..and for some other people it work..while see a little affact
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
I'm confused too...maybe try set cpu and set the covenour to ondemand instead of interactive and test again...

although give the phone 1-2 days with load the battery full and wipe batt stats before

[Desire Android Development] wency_99:
hi alex, i'd just like to inform you that flashing your 1.7 ROM on Aurax 7.6.1 did not really work... went into bootloops... so i wiped everything, then installed 1.7, but when I flashed BrightSilence 2.2 over, it went on bootloop gain... i am not wondering why a 2.10 base would do that since BrightSilence works on 2.10 (but not on any other version)... maybe using some newer libraries?

just wanted to let you know... i am now using a rooted 2.13 since I am in SouthEast Asia anyway and seems to be working ok for me (but BrightSilence didn't work again but I expected that) Is the kernel with 2.13 newer than your 1.7 ROM?
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
yes should work...its for 2.10 ;)
