Sorry don´t understand correct you said...you can not boot as you flashed the old undervolt patch...?!?

If you can not boot flash the rom again

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] ToneBank:
It boots and everything works fine. But I flashed undervolt patch already and I am wondering if I need to remove the patch or can I just leave it in there?

/Tonebank
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
so your first post about non booting is wrong (don´t start up)...you can leave it if you want...its not a problem... :)

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] DroidBois:
We need to install a patch for undervolting?

I installed the kernel:

couttstech-2.6.32.28_OC1190_HAVS@875mV_BFS_VR_SLQB.zip

it looks like the following version was what was causing problems:

couttstech-2.6.32.28_OC1190_BFS_BFQ_SLQB.zip

couttstech-2.6.32.28_OC1190_HAVS@875mV_BFS_BFQ_SLQB.zip

I have no idea where they came from.

Also, is there a way to confirm that I am running the 875mV kernel? Is there any significant battery improvement with this? Any other improvements?

Just trying to decide if the 875 or 975mV kernel is better for me.

Alex, great work on the ROM - I think there is a real need for streamlined and STABLE ROM's without all the 'features' that other ROMs are stuffing in that are causing problems.

Please please keep up the good work, and lets see if we can move to a longer development cycle, with clearly marked Test ROM's, and long term Stable ROM's that we recommend for all users who don't want to take risks with a Test ROM.

My suggestion is the same as Linux kernels - even numbers for stable - odd numbers for test versions.

As for data2sd or whatever, I suggest we stick with app2sd+ for the stable ROM's for a long time yet as it seems to be simple and reliable.

I really don't have any problems with phone performance so I am not fussed about the other data2sd options, I just want my phone to work.
[Desire Android Development] DroidBois:
Is flashing radio dangerous, can it brick our phones?

Also, I think we should make it more clear on the home page of this thread what ROMs are stable and what are 'development', can we do that Alex?
[Desire Android Development] bluelavender:
Flashing new radio is not as dangerous as flashing hboot, but yes, it can degrade signal performance.

Radio / baseband performance can differ between carriers / country, since every carriers , even within same country can have different signal. Sometimes, if the radio that we flash can sync with the signal of our carriers, it can mean better signal or better battery life. On the other hand, if it is not the same, then it will become signal nightmare. That's why, if we see in this thread, certain radio somehow works flawlessly for one person, but can result in total loss of signal for others.

BL
[Desire Android Development] DroidBois:
OK so it's a case of if it ain't broke don't fix it, so I will leave it, unless other people on my carrier change their radio version.

Now my friend here, with a proudly rooted phone, says he needs Korean language support. Is this something that can be added in the ROM?

I have recommended Alex-V because it's a clean ROM without all the bloat of some other ROMs and is more rigorously tested than some other ROMs.

Also, we are having problems with booting in to Recovery complaining that SD Card can't be mounted, although we can mount it in the phone and on my Ubuntu PC through the phone, and directly in a reader. We formatted it with GParted with the EXT3 partition at the end, and the FAT32 partition at the beginning. It worked fine before the re-partition and format.

Any thoughts?

Error is

Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0p1)

(Invalid argument)

can't mount /sdcard

Edit--

Fixed by using another card so seems the card was the issue.

Now my friend just wants Korean language support and he's happy, is this something we can add in somehow?
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
On the first site is a link to all locale (language) and apn's ...give it a try..and follow the instructions in the link...if not work...flash it direct after the rom flash

With kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] hellbutt:
hi alex,

just to check that whether ur new V2.1 has the latest market app installed in it?
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Latest market is in :)
[Desire Android Development] rahav:
Now I can't flashed even the 2.0.

I reinstall the RUU and reroot the phone but still I can't flash any cooked ROM only the RUU. All of the cooked ROM stacked in the boot screen.

Can you Please help me?
[Desire Android Development] BashyUK:
@rahav please can you post in Desire Q and A because your issue is not rom specific.

For what it's worth you don't need to re root all the time. Also make sure you do full wipes via recovery.

Anyway please post there and you will get lots of help.
[Desire Android Development] Metalazzo:
Try erasing cache after flashing the ROM in fastboot (or bootloader, I make the mistake everytime).

edit: in bootloader -> fastboot erase cache
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Maybe its the radio...or the h boot...i don´t know if you have problems with every rom...

my rom´s are for amoled and slcd for gsm....you are sure its not a cdma phone..?

with kind regards..Alex
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Working on 2.2 with data2whatever script....my first test...no difference in speed compared to a2sd+....very fast....i like it it :)

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] DroidBois:
Thanks, followed it through and someone mentioned MoreLocale2 so I will recommend checking out those apps first.

So far his ROM install seems to be working fine - we installed the latest a2sd+ version, not sure why it is working on his and didn't on mine, it must have been to do with the way my phone was configured, but it's working fine now.

could using a 875mV kernel cause any lag? My phone seems to lag a tiny bit, but could be to do with all the heaps of apps I load it up with.
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Good to hear that the language is fixed :)

Sorry ...not know...what cause the problems on your phone...i have araound 1500 downloads (dat2sd+a2sd+) and 240 of the original 2.1 in you are the one who have so much probs...????!!!???

anyway...yes...875 can couse it...give 925 a try...if not the svs version....still the best for battery ist the kernel that come with the rom ( siberes svs kernel)

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] DroidBois:
I only had problems that once until you made that ROM for me, everything is fine now. I may try your default ROM again tonight.
[Desire Android Development] victoryo:
What's the difference beteween the Alex-V 2.1 A2SD+ rom and the Alex-V 2.1 A2SD+ original.

I use the first one (Alex-V 2.1 A2SD+) and everything works great!
[Desire Android Development] DroidBois:
Running your Alex-V 2.1 A2sd+ ROM now, I got the boot loop problem again, after flashing Titanium and clicking 'restore all missing apps and data'.

So I went back to recovery, wiped data / factory reset, and now I'm back in. This time I am restoring all my paid apps manually and I will slowly restore all my apps manually, and see if anything pops up that causes issues.

It was due for a good clean out anyway.

--- Edit ---

I don't get it, it just froze.

I just restored a heap of apps from the Market, all seemed fine, didn't use Titanium this time. The last app I remember restoring was Car Data Manager (free), the rest all paid apps, and add popped up on it, I went deeper in to the app and it froze. Good thing I backed up my entire SD card before screwing around with the ROM tonight in case I lose anything.

So.... it seems to be fine, until I start restoring apps. Although it could be a coincidence.

The ROM you gave me before, even with the latest Couttstech kernel, works completely fine.

What are the main differences between the ROM you gave me before, and the Alex-V 2.1 A2sd+ ROM?

As far as I can tell, my friend is going fine too, after I gave him another SD card as his was causing problems in Recovery.

Could an SD card cause problems with some ROM's and not others?

Could not having S-OFF cause any problems?
[Desire Android Development] victoryo:
If you have reboot problem i think its the ext2 or 3 partition on your SD card.

Because when i remove my sd card and start the mobile i will also get a reboot loop.

So i think your SD Card ext partition is not recognized and than it's rebooting the whole time.
[Desire Android Development] hongkongtom:
dear Alex,

is it possible for you to cook a clean 2.1 but with data2sd?
[Desire Android Development] DroidBois:
Could be it..

I will take the card out and delete, recreate the partitions and restore my SD card data, and then try to restore from backup again.

Even the backup is playing up now, stuck on the white boot screen forever.

I hope it's something fixable.
[Desire Android Development] juniorxdb:
Hi, Alex!!! I tested the new ROM Starbust becouse has one diference: Data2SD with ext4... The ROM is very very very fast, no lags, no reboots, nothing... Only the app morelocaly2 didin't work after reboot... Do you can make one ROM with this??? Or your ROM uses new scripts???

The link: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=916417

Is only idea... Don't worry, I don't changed your ROM, only I test all ROMs interesting :p
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Link with a better Script come in the evening :)
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
But no problems with the other card..? I thought you said its fixed with the other card
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
New version is online :)

Changelog:

Alex-V 2.2

-data2sd is now data2whatever

-no lag (as speedy as a2sd+)

-suport ext2/3/4

-with 1 gb ext around 800mb free (min 512 mb ext---max 2 gb)

-fixed dalvik on sd

-changed car panel to google version (multilang and more options)

with kind regards..Alex
[Desire Android Development] hongkongtom:
wow, Alex, you're amazing!:D
[Desire Android Development] DroidBois:
That was my friends phone, this is my phone.

I am beginning to wonder if the SD card has been the problem all along.

I'm now re-formatting using Recovery and will see how I go from here.

Luckily I backed up my SD card last night!

Searching around the Net with people with similar issues or the same error in Recovery has suggested that weird formats of the SD card can cause issues like this.
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
this is a fast update for language and more i need more time...did you try the update pack for chs .`?

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
So i wish you good luck...its so strange with your phone...maybe you can try the card of your friend :)

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] ToneBank:
This is the best rom I tested!

Do I need to wipe anything when i upgrade from 2.1 to 2.2?

/Tonebank
[Desire Android Development] BashyUK:
D/L now, will try later or over the weekend.

As it's only the data/a2sd that has changed rather than base version, I would say no full/factory wipe needed although dalvik-cache/battery stats is probably advised....maybe also cache, it's only cache shouldn't cause any harm either way...
[Desire Android Development] bluelavender:
Droidbois, if reformatting via recovery fails to solve the issue, try reformatting via gparted. if i'm not mistaken, there's a thing about alignment being different between formatting, and gparted formatting is usually fail-proof. Most of the time, gparted solves lots of issue with partition.

BL
[Desire Android Development] rahav:
OK, I just want to update you that ROMs 1.5 HD & 2.1 work now on my phone.

It's only take 10 to 15 minutes to get up from the animated boot screen.
[Desire Android Development] BashyUK:
Good to hear your issue is fixed. What was causing the issue?

Which do you prefer, HD or Standard? 2.2 is out although you may want to have a period of stability first before experimenting again :-)
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
:):):)

You can try but make a backup before :)
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Good to hear :) :)
[Desire Android Development] carlo0810:
Hi alex, im coming from 1.9 a2sd+, can i just flash the 2.2 data2whatever like your other rom versions or do i need to repartition my sd? It is currently 512 ext2 from rom manager. Will data2whatever work straightaway?
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Should work... :)

With kind regards..Alex
[Desire Android Development] ToneBank:
Hi.

You get lower quadrant-scores with the latest version. Do you have a clue Alex?

2.1 felt "quicker" and more responsive for me, might go back.

BTW, You have to make a factory-reset. Cache wipe wasn´t enough.

/Tonebank
[Desire Android Development] BashyUK:
When you did it originally did you just do a cache wipe or dalivikcache + cache?
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Quadrant score is not relevant in data2sd versions..because of the script you have a fake score.... :)
[Desire Android Development] Metalazzo:
Hi !

I suppose there is no need to update to 2.2 my 2.1 A2SD+ ?
[Desire Android Development] BashyUK:
E:Failure at line 11.

copy_dir PACKAGE:data DATA:

Redownloading ROM now.

Would be good if you outlined the main benefits of this to A2SD+ under the post on the 1st page (I know more detail is in the wiki but briefly helps that little bit more)
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
If all is good there is no need..i only wanted a new version for data2sd with a better script :)
[Desire Android Development] Moe5508:
Hi Alex, would love to test your latest release but can't download from 4Shared...it's just terrible. Do you mind mirroring on Mediafire (no waiting time + resumeable download with download manager), Rapidshare, romn**** etc?

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
will upload it tonight ;)

[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Ok i have test it..and you are right...but i read the Comments on the market to Adfree...and most of the people say..it´s not working on Desire

maybe it´s a froyo problem of the htc desire...on wich version of leerdroid it was working....because maybe it run´s fine on the froyo 2.06 test rom and don´t work on 2.09 ota (my presumption) or it´s really a permission problem

anyway:

first way is to update it manual over the pinky update.....or try the secend way...from this thread :

Dear Alex

How to set the portion in SDCARD?

original 16G C4 with 1G EXT3 + 256M SWAP at Version 2.1 DATA2SD.

After update to V2.2 DATA2WHATEVER, the 1G EXT3 still working at internal memory. but 256M SWAP was format as EXT2 by system and set as A2SD, and only 26.5M left (showed by Tiannium Backup). Is there any wrong?:confused:

Please give help!

so thanks!
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Try to flash the rom...and after without reboot..flash coutts kernel...
[Desire Android Development] rahav:
The only problem is that I didant with the 10 to 15 minutes to get up from the animated boot screen.

I like the HD one for his looks! But I use difrant keyboard because I don't need the arrows in the keyboard.

I will not stop expirimenting I will try any new ROM.

This is my 3 smartphone and with all of them i try the XDA ROMs on them.

The only thing that stoped me from that is that i flashed RUU ROM of s-off on my s-on desire and in that time I didn't have a gold card to install s-on RUU.
[Desire Android Development] xingkongqy:
used the TOOLS to delete the SWAP directly and add to EXT3, after that wipe the data and flash the rom. And now, it's working with 1.25G EXT3.

from other post, it said FAT+ 1G EXT3 + 300M EXT3 + 100 SWAP be used for data2whatever.
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Also...thanks for info..and report
[Desire Android Development] puredesire:
Like this rom alot, thanks ;)

The only problem I have is: android.process.acore 100% x2

Any solution?
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Its a fc...best way for this is flash the rom again and make a data factory reset in recovery before

With kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] puredesire:
What is fc?
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Force close....a error message :)
[Desire Android Development] BashyUK:
Same error as before when trying to install the rom. Hmm. Might have to leave this version alone. 2.. 1 is working fine. I will Only need d2sd once I get the low storage warning on a2sd + and don't think that will happen for a while.
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
What error direct..?
[Desire Android Development] :
Cannot install.

CWM recovery 3.0.0.5

Ok, managed to get it going now.

CWM 2.5.1.8, s-off, sandisk 16gb ultra with sd-ext 4gb

want to upgrade adfree, it says no space? what do i need to change?

tnx.

edit: i guess the reason is that adfree writes to nand? ok, you should now say rtfm to me, i didn't see "max sd-ext 2gb".
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Works good here...you are s-off what partition table you use..?
[Desire Android Development] :
Ext3. Should I use ext4?

Sorry for being newbish, I'm pretty new to this.

BTW, I have downloaded 2.2 d2sd
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Should work with any ext i have ext 3
[Desire Android Development] :
Strange, market has downloaded gmail, youtube etc. automatically and they work.

But for facebook too says it has manual update for which also occurs "sorry no space".

What should I check?
[Desire Android Development] BashyUK:
s off, not changed partition table, 1GB ext3.

Only did wipes on cache, dalvik cache and battery stats.
[Desire Android Development] victoryo:
Got a question i am running the 2.1 app2sd+

But how does it work?

Because when i install an app its installed on the phone memory.

Do i need to say later "move to sd card" and than it's fine?

Thankyou!:D
[Desire Android Development] :
It seems it doesn't work with ext3, at least in my case with 4gb ext3.

Made 2gb ext4 with gparted, now everything ok.
[Desire Android Development] BashyUK:
Fixed. Did full wipe. Installed 2.2 and tb restore. Will give report soon.
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Thats why some apps can not use a2sd

And thats why i'm interested in data2sd :)

I was using MCR r10 with a /data/data to SD script,it works just fine. Just a tiny bit slower than A2SD+ and occasional lags on playing music and videos,

after a few days switching to my newly bought class6 card,the phone is laggy and some apps started having FC, just before I'm about to switch to Alex's I tried my class4 again and it works like a charm. Anyway, my next update would definitely be Alex,since there is hard to find such a responsible developer.

However, toggles still brick me? Tried only internal.

Works fine for me. Just installed via recovery as I did previously on a2sd + version. No wipe needed. Takes a few mins to boot initially that's all. I also installed track pad wake at the same time.

Out of interest, why are you switching to internal?

Alex, just to advise this has run fine all day. Tomorrow will try with coutts kernel. 630mb+ free internal. Will probably stick to this rather than change back to a2sd +. Works just as well.

Works good for me... and no need for internal switch
