If you are talking with stability, I can safely say it is truely stable. never crashed, random reboots or anything. very clean.

If you are talking about battery friendly, since I haven't tried ROM not made by PINKY, I could not really compare my experience to answer your question. I unplugged my HTC around 10am, heavy usage (internet, games, news reading, browsing), around 5 to 6 pm it would already need a recharge.

I don't have any idea whether it is battery friendly or not..

Can you tell me instead?
[Desire Android Development] knudsen19:
I've just flashed this ROM after have my Desire rooted, but I never managed to actually try the ROM as I gave up, cause it felt as if it was stuck in the boot animation. It just kept showing the boot animation, and when it was done, it just reset it. Is it supposed to do so or?

thx in advance.

EDIT: Got it fixed :)
[Desire Android Development] volapyk:
This rom is without HTC Sense, but it includes HTC apps. This is very useful for users who don't use HTC Sense but still use the HTC apps. E.g people who use launchers like Adw launcher or launcher pro.

In short. This is not a stock Android only rom. This rom includes the HTC functionality that many users like.

1. I don't know. It should remember your choice if you tick the "use as standard" option.

2+3. As mentioned above this rom has both stock apps and HTC apps. This gives you choice. Simply choose the version you like best and select the "use as standard" option.

4. It's possible to remove (some) apk's from the zip file before flashing. You can use a file manager like Astro or Estrong to open the zip file and delete the apk's.

Its not name calling, its a common sarcastic phrase. Are you 12 ?
[Desire Android Development] mistahd33:
/offtopic

Lol I'm sure my clients would feel great if I said "no **** Sherlock" to them when they wonder about something which they don't understand and come to me for my compassionate advice. In fact my boss would TOTALLY love it if I said it to him.. heaps.. he'd probably even give me a raise! Thanks for the idea "Einstein", you tha man. o_0 *shakes head*

Another common namecalling phrase for ya is "back off a bit curly", and that ones not even sarcastic.

Sherlock IS a NAME of a fictional superhero known for his brainpower and using his name sarcastically IS derogatory. Denying that either is true makes you even less insightful than you would be if you accepted that you were out of line. Therefore "Are you 9?".

It was a bit harsh reply, but I was kinda fed up with people posting about "ROM problems", when the cause is just their "non-knowledge".

Same goes for "rom eating too much battery", "it doesnt install properly", "where are htc widgets" and already mentioned "scenes doesnt work". If everyone would just read the instructions + used forum search or Google from time to time, there wont be any **** at all + the ROM creator wouldn't to check up on bogus problems like this.

PINKY DESIRE THEMES

This post is now obselete due to my new post further down.
[Desire Android Development] fwers:
is this a bug? i am listening to music.. stop the music.. shutdown.. restart.. leaving the headphones in the jack all through this.. when i play music it plays through the speakers and not through the headphones ?
[Desire Android Development] mistahd33:
It plays through the speaker by default unless it senses you plug the headphones in. If you reboot it resets the little bit of code that says the headphones are plugged in and you need to unplug them and re plug them in. It's no big deal.

It's like if you are half way through selecting wallpaper and you reboot.. it's not going to remember that you were selecting wallpaper, you need to tell it that you want to change your wallpaper again. Not everything is persistant after reboot.

EDIT: I'm just speculating here, I don't absolutely know this for sure, I'm not a coder.
[Desire Android Development] fwers:
it's a bad implementation then, bcos headphones should always be given a higher priority then speakers. this is my first week with a android device, coming from a iphone, so with time will get use to this... it's just a hassle if your are in a library and u decided to reboot for some reason, have to remember to reset the headphones.. but no biggy
[Desire Android Development] webber2109:
I am not sure if this is a bug or a known issue.

FM Radio doesn't come back to play after a phone call comes in/ goes out.

Had to start FM Radio again in order to listen to radio again. Not really a great problem but kind of troublesome to switch it on again after every call. Music seems to work fine though.

[Desire Android Development] gtp:
hi pinkolin,

your Classic ROM + Launcher Pro is just perfect for me! just a small feature request - is it possible to make DroidWall work in your ROM or may be next release? I didn't dig too deep in this yet but as I understand netfilter and iptables are both required for DroidWall to work properly. or may be there is any other way to prevent a particular application to connect to Internet in any way?

thanks in advance!

UPD: to make the DroidWall work it is only required to update the iptables with version 1.4.7, I was not able to find it as a standalone so I had to extract it from the oClock Custom ROM on MoDaCo, which I suppose was taken from the CyanogenMod ROM :)

however, if anyone would like to fix the DroidWall in the current (1.8) CLASSIC version of this wonderful Pinky's ROM, just download the attached zip, unpack the iptables and replace it in the /system/bin directory with 'adb push' while in Recovery mode. at least it worked for me.

in other ROMs you can check the compatibility by doing the following:

- run 'adb shell'

- execute 'cat /proc/net/ip_tables_matches | grep owner' (no quotes)

- if the result is the following:

"cat /proc/net/ip_tables_matches | grep owner

owner"

then you are good to go further. if there's no "owner" word then DroidWall will not work on your ROM because of the kernel compile options. switch to Pinky CLASSIC then! :)

- now check the iptables version. just execute 'iptables -V' (no quotes), the result should be "iptables v1.4.7" - if it is not 1.4.7 then update with the one attached to this message. if it is - enjoy DroidWall as I do :)

feel free to PM me if you need any assistance, I hope I will be able to help.

I just flash with version 1.8, but when I try to enable Wifi, his stutus is 'Error'

I'm with radio 5.10.5.23

is there a workaround ?

I did this myself as well, wipe first then flash, don't wipe after flash on custom roms.

Hi ShaneMacMillan,

Many thanks, indeed I did wipe after flash the rom.

Hey Pinkolin, my first post on the forums going here :)

I got my desire about two weeks ago and started lurking thru this great forums to learn more about android system and get to know my device a bit better.

In this time I've tried most of the popular roms, but this one is by far the best one so far. Simply amazing!

Keep up the great work man, and do tell me if there's a way to donate to you somehow without the paypal (still don't have it in my country:()
[Desire Android Development] mistahd33:
I am making a mod/alternative to my theme (link in my sig) which has a transparent notification bar. Ill have it released in the next day or two.. just working out the finer points for what style people want me to do for wifi icon. Hopefully support for transparent notification drawer background will be added in future pinky releases at some stage also... hopefully... fingers crossed... *pokes pinky* lol

EDIT:

* Created 3 alternative themes for each color.

* Changed earth color theme to match desire bezel/facia!

I get the message "read-only file system" when trying to push files with ADB. And I cannot use "fix permissions" from Rom Manager because I get a similar message.

Using a root file manager I can access and copy system files. Titanium backup works too. I'm not sure why this is happening.

EDIT: Ok, I can access and work with adb from recovery, not with the OS running. It's weird but OK, at least it works.

Remove Sense Vertical slide gesture (not htclockscreen)

Hello.

I'm posting this question here since pinky made this rom removing all sense interface.

I've been searching the web to solve this issue but didn't find anything consistent.

I'm using custom sense rom and removed HtcLockscreen.apk to use vanilla lockscreen and htcdialer to use dialerone plus standard phone instead. Everything Works pretty fine except when the phone is in standby mode or when the lock screen is active:

I don't know how, since i removed htclockscreen, but the htc Vertical slidebar (the same as htclockscreen) to answer/dismiss calls activates!

The only way to get stock froyo answer/dismiss calls interface is when the phone is on (not in stanby or in lockscreen mode).

I tried to remove rosie.apk but it didn't solve the issue.

Can pinky or anyone tell me how to definitely get rid of this htcslidebar?
[Desire Android Development] wilo108:
Hi Pinkolin - thanks for this rom! I've been searching around for about a week looking for the best rom for my desire, and I think I've found it.

There is one potential show-stopper for me though. I really need the HTC CIME (the handwriting one). I've tried your rom with and without sense, but neither has the handwriting recognition, but both still have the four other Chinese IMEs. Did you remove the handwriting deliberately? Is there any way I can put it back? I've been looking at the IME apks from other roms (which do have the handwriting), such as Leedroid's and Neophyte's, but I can get them to work - should they (i.e. - I'm doing something wrong)? or is that way never going to work (i.e. - I should give up and look for other solutions)?

Would be grateful for any advice - if I can't get this working I'm going to have to go back to another rom, but I'd much rather keep using this one!

cheers!

Hi pinkolin

Looking forward to getting the new rom version!

I just read: Perflock disabled (for underclocking via SetCPU)

This mean i won't be able to use setcpu as i'm used to for underclocking and save battery life? Why did you disable this feature? :(

(I'm curently running leedroid but i want to get back to your rom)
[Desire Android Development] nihilist_:
Looking forward to 2.0

Your classic Rom is the best around (IMHO)
[Desire Android Development] hlchbro5:
I'm gonna second that!!! Looking forward!!
[Desire Android Development] kboya:
do not worry; disabling perflock allows you to use setcpu the way you have been;)

battery life on this ROM is great, and setcpu enhances it more... 2.0 may be even better

I tried 4 different builds today. formatted my sd card and ran the files. when i get to the lockscreen my phone vibrates and than turns itself off. What am i doing wrong. I tried different roms and radios and its the same result.

HOw Do I identify it it is a stock battery or extended battery?

what's the diff between these 2?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] fobfusion:
the extended battery is very thick... the one i have is the official HTC one which is not supported by any kernels currently. The phone shuts off after boot because the battery temp. sensor readings is too high (which in reality is not).
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] kingfisher1111:
Is that manufactured by HTC or some chinese company?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] CB620:
So android builds wont work with chinese batteries? im starting from scratch and seeing if i can catch the problem
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Egan:
It appears to be an overheating problem, even though my battery temperature is not getting higher than 36 degrees when it crashes.

This issue is not specifically related to Chinese batteries. I have the same problem when connected to my car charger or USB charger and run Google Maps for a while or Daily Voyager (camcorder app). Without a charger, and thus less heat, all works fine.

I tried all radios and still the problems persists. Now I'm going back to MCR r3.1 too see if that solves it. If not, it might be a hardware issue on the board.

EDIT 1: Problem also there in MCR r3.1 (Android 2.1 / Eclair). Further investigating...

EDIT 2: It appears to be an issue with GPS while the device is charging. Whenever I have GPS on and in use by i.e. Google Maps/Navigation or another app like DailyRoads Voyager, it will crash a few minutes later (sometimes within a minute). When I keep GPS disabled there is no problem at all.

Can anyone confirm my experience?

I was trying to put some songs into my sd card from my computer via the usb adapter then i got an error saying that the file has been internally changed or something of that sort. I restarted the computer to try again but this time when i clicked on the drive in my computer it started asking me to reformat so I said no.

Giving up, I returned my sd card to my phone and fired it up. When it started up I got an error saying that my sd card is either blank or contains incorrect file formats; I tried rebooting but this did not help so i reformated it with my x10a .

The problem now is that I lost all the files that where on the sdcard. When I put videos it doesn't show up on mediascape and I suspect it's the same with music. I guess the problem is because I wiped the original files that where compatible with mediascape off.

Does anyone know how I can restore my sdcard with original factory files?

Or can someone zip up their orignal sd files for me to download?

Any help would be highly appreciated.
