It did the same for me and I applied the update in the same way as normal. So I installed from market, then re-applied your update.
[Desire Android Development] craig1965:
ok I've just reflashed the update and its gone now all I did last time was uninstall the market update first might be where I went wrong my Rom isn't altered in any way totally stock 3.1
[Desire Android Development] teppic74:
It could possibly be a problem with the Market app's data being out of sync, but usually this fixes itself. Android won't maintain two identical versions of the app, the system one takes priority and the other is removed.
[Desire Android Development] Gruntplace:
Hi just quick query, i'm using v3.1 with reboot sound on, apps2sd and power saving mods, just wondering if this would interfere with my apps updating through either market or appbrain, have loads on and usually have a few updates everyday but none at all for a few days now? Maybe just hasn't been any?
[Desire Android Development] GonsioR:
You can use "aTrackDog" application to check if there are new updates available. It's free and very usefull.

Best regards, Darek.

S-off?

I recently s-offed my phone and still being new, would I flash this rom w/mods just like anyone else or are there different steps I should follow?
[Desire Android Development] teppic74:
You can just flash as usual. Make sure you haven't shrunk your system partition or the ROM won't fit.

@ teppic

my sd card also has been formatted to fat32 and two other partitions first ext3: 1GB and second ext4: also 1GB

the reason I would preferabely like to keep it (my rooted stock rom) is that it is

arabic enabled

and I am yet to run into a rom that has that, stock or otherwise...

Could you please enlighten me a bit?!

Thanks!

A2SD+ and EXT4

Hello,

I am using "2.29.405.5 INIT.D ROM" + "A2SD+ (1.4)".

Can I use ext4 instead ext3 for the partition on the sdcard?
[Desire Android Development] lurbi:
AFAIK not with the default kernel.
[Desire Android Development] jedi134:
After flashing the 1st powersaving mod, my battery life is now rubbish, what's going on there then.? Should I try the 2nd power saving mod? Any way to go back to stock?
[Desire Android Development] Wiper:
about to flash rom

Okay, I'm ready to go from stock to this one, but I have few questions, before I pull the trigger. As the file size of the 3.1 is nearly the same as stock rom, am I right to assume this includes radio rom as well, or do I need to flash the radio after flashing 3.1?

Question 2, my phone is already rooted, S-offed and recover image is CWM-Alpharev 2.x.something. As this 3.1 is pre-rooted, does it have any effect on the recover image and/or s-off?

[edit]

Never mind, I was too impatient to wait for confirmation. Now running v3.1

[/edit]
[Desire Android Development] korozja:
+1 (ROM v3.1)
[Desire Android Development] teppic74:
You must use the correct version of the modules, which is clearly put in the first post. If you don't it won't work.
[Desire Android Development] korozja:
well... i used "powersaving-modules-gf5a401c-16-signed.zip".

but it sais: This version of the powersaving modpack is for the v3.0 rom ONLY. It will not work on the others.

i'm on 3.1. does it work properly with it ior i need something else?
[Desire Android Development] jedi134:
Yep I'm on 3.1 to and use the same powersaving mod. Ver 1:6 is it from the link and my battery is rubbish
[Desire Android Development] ShirazSuleman:
How can We tell which mods are compatible with 3.1?

Apologies if this has been answered before but I found a few posts saying all are compatible and one or two saying that the deodex mod is not.
[Desire Android Development] Gruntplace:
It says at start of topic what's compatible.

However, I am also on v3.1 with power saving mods installed. I queried whether it would work somewhere above and was told that it would work except for one of the processes not working on v3.1.

I have not noticed any improvement in battery life.

I installed V3.1, then installed A2sd+, which is great thanks, still have 80mb free internal memory and 80 apps including a lot of very big ones, then installed powersaving-modules-gf5a401c-16-signed.zip

p.s. not a gripe and thanks for the hard work, but would like to know if I've done something wrong with the power saving as battery is crap
[Desire Android Development] jamesbrampton:
Same here
[Desire Android Development] teppic74:
The powersaving module WILL reduce power usage, even if you don't really notice it, as it can't do anything but. There's no way it will make your battery life worse than the stock ROM, it's just not possible. If it isn't working for some reason you will get the same battery life as stock.
[Desire Android Development] jedi134:
Well i`ll have to disagree with you on that one, I can definatly say that with the powersaving-modules-gf5a401c-16-signed.zip my battery life is very much poorer crap in fact compared to stock. I am now trying the other power saving mod, I`ll see how it goes. If no better, I`ll just reflash the stock base rom again.

Thanks again.
[Desire Android Development] gosa:
Question for Teppic:

I might just be a bit confused and misunderstanding things, but I'm reading in another thread that it might be a problem with these update-packages that are built with the "update-script" if you're running A newer versions Clockworkmod Recovery.

I don't know how much this affects the Desire so far, but I thought I'd ask if this something you will have in mind for later updates, or warn people about in your first post?
[Desire Android Development] teppic74:
As I said, it's not the modpack. Check your battery stats to see if an application is running oddly. I have found that Maps 5.0.0 is a bit buggy and can drain the battery fast.
[Desire Android Development] NighthawkMS:
Hello,

I'm using the following roms and modpacks:

2.29.405.5 INIT.D ROM

POWERSAVING MODPACK (1.6)

FLASH PLUGIN SYSTEM REPLACEMENT (1.4)

UPDATE APPS (1.8)

UPDATE MISC APPS (1.3)

Before installing the rom I made a full wipe (including davlik cache and battery stats) and I'm getting really better battery life then stock!!!

Thanks for the great work teppic
[Desire Android Development] Gruntplace:
Maybe a stoopid question but, when you click the V.3 'must download from Here' under the power saving modules heading you get the following download:

'powersaving-modules-gf5a401c-16-signed'

but when you go to the bottom of the original topic on page 1 one and look at the list of downloads and clikc the power saving modules item there, you get:

'powersaving-modules-g6a358a9-16-signed'

Both are version 1.6 by their titles but are they any different, and if so, which is the correct one to install?

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] Gruntplace:
Do you have 'add_a2sd-14-signed.zip' installed as well?
[Desire Android Development] RTP:
I think which one to use depends on your kernel version, which you can find in Settings/About/Software Information/Kernel version
[Desire Android Development] Gruntplace:
Ah yes, the kernel version is the alpha numerical bit, I thought that might have been just some random Rapidshare thing or something. Have the right version installed so

Gonna try it again with the full wipe again. Although I did this the first time. If I wipe data completely as in factory wipe I presume it will wipe the battery stats as well?

I notice the person I quoted didn't state they had a2sd listed, that hardly makes any difference though does it?

Also, I presume I can leave my SD card as is and don't have to partition it again (did it with ROM Manager last time) or should I format the card and start from scratch again?

And finally I do not understand how any of this works and have only managed to do it by following instructions here, A2sd rocks but would be great to improve battery also
[Desire Android Development] Gruntplace:
Ok found wipe battery stats and dalvik cache in advanced recovery mode settings
[Desire Android Development] Freddan80:
I tend to agree with many posters in the last pages of this thread, the battery life is not good even with 'power saving' flashed.

I know that the 'power saving' is most likely not to blame here but perhaps some other modifications are. I don't notice any strange things with my applications other than the 'Sense' part is rather high, don't know if thats unusual.

First time I flashed this rom (with great battery-life) I used the same configuration that I'm using now but I also used one mod to 'deodex' the rom which I'm not using now, with this latest flash I also use 'sd readahead' which I didn't use on my first flash. Perhaps the 'sd readahead' somehow decrease the batterylife by messing with something in 'Sense'?
[Desire Android Development] kmetek:
teppic74: please update addons for 3.1 version :)
[Desire Android Development] olgunozcan:
What is the difference between the v2 and v3?

I'm using the following roms and modpacks:

2.10.405.2 INIT.D ROM v2.0

Radio 32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2

A2SD+ (1.4)

Super Circle Battery Mod
[Desire Android Development] ak29:
anyone know if the new radio: 32.54.00.32U_5.14.05.17 will work with this rom?

Thanks in advance.
[Desire Android Development] Freddan80:
In my previous post I also said that I experienced really bad batter life which was true but after reflashing my rom without the modification 'SD Readahead"my battery is back to normal or something like normal at least.

I still use the 'Power Savings Mod' but I can't tell if it's actually done something for me but it doesn't drain my battery for me, so if you use 'SD Readahead' and experience battery drain, reflash but without 'SD Readahead'.
[Desire Android Development] Murmucka:
Hi,

i have installed version 3.1 (2.29.405.5) with a2sd+, updated apps.

I have restored my settings, contacts etc, configured my desire.

Now, i want to install the powersave modpack 1.6 for this rom (from clockworkmod recovery menu) Can i install this without loose my settings, contacts, apps, etc?

Thanks!

Zsolt, Hungary
[Desire Android Development] Freddan80:
You won't loose your settings when applaying the 'Power Savings' mod.
[Desire Android Development] instillation:
It does work. Installed just a few hours ago, so can only confirm that.
[Desire Android Development] goodrichxda:
Hi!

I installed both 2.29.405.2/5 INIT.D ROM v3.0 and v3.1 and have the same problem with both. I can't install a2sd+. My phone keeps rebooting after install. Just gets to the white screen with htc logo and reeboots.

Baseband version: 32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27

I formatted my card to have the first primary partition as FAT32 3GB and second primary ext3 1 GB.

Any hints?

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] Electrocut:
Something must be wrong, in your sdcard partitioning method.

I used GParted to create 1 Primary 7.5 GB FAT32 + 1 Primary 512 MB ext3, and ap2sd+ is working.

Thank you teppic74 for "Sd Readahead" patch, it is working greaaaat !!

Speed test with the application "AnTuTu System BenchMark", from the Market :

Before :

Write : 5.3 MB/s

Read : 4.3 MB/s

After:

Write : 5.6 MB/s

Read : 12.2 MB/s

(Transcend 8 GB Class 6 SDCard)
[Desire Android Development] instillation:
I have Transcend 8 GB Class 6 SD Card too, and without the mod got the result: write 9.8 MB/s, read 5.6 MB/s (used AnTuTu System BenchMark for testing too). I would like to install the mode again, but when I did it for the first time, I noticed the same:

teppic74, is it possible there's a bug in the SD Readahead mod?
[Desire Android Development] deejay6901:
hi guys.. maybe this has been asked already here but im too lazy to do a backread from page 1 up to the current. I'm really interested in applying this ROM mod with init.d support so that i may be able to setup data2sd on it. right now my phone is running the following:

android version 2.3.2

baseband 32.54.00.32U_5.14.05.17

kernel version: 2.6.37-Oxygen adam@ozone#1

so to apply the 2.29.405.2/5 INIT.D ROM, how will i do this? do i need a full wipe? and how do i restore back to my current setup? sorry for being too noob and too lazy :D. thanks
[Desire Android Development] Aitese:
deejay6901,

To answer that you don't have to re-read the whole thread...the VERY FIRST post will tell you how to install. Seeing as it's all anyone would naturally read to install ANY rom your laziness isn't appreciated or cute.

[Desire Android Development] craig1965:

[Desire Android Development] teppic74:
Powersaving mods for stock kernel, yes. So a different version is needed for v2 and 3.0/3.1.

The high powersaving one is not yet updated. It doesn't seem to get much interest, but I will update it when I am able.

[Desire Android Development] craig1965:
just a word of warning I've been messing around with non stock kernels

I tried to go back to teppics stock kernel by flashing the version 3.1 Rom but it wouldn't recognise my ext partition even after a full wipe and applying all the mod packs again

my only way back was to do a full wipe back up and reformat my SD card now everything is back to normal

I learned a valuable lesson so think twice next time
[Desire Android Development] teppic74:
The stock kernel doesn't support ext4; so if you use that on your sdcard it won't work.

There will be a delay with the flash update, as I'm away at the moment.
[Desire Android Development] whips:
Can't the flash be updated through the market? that's what I did anyway and it seem to work just fine.
[Desire Android Development] gosa:
Of course you can update Flash through market, but that will put the new version in your data partition instead of in the system partition (the latter is what you get with the updates in this thread). What's the weight (sorry for that expression - thinking in Spanish here) of Flash nowadays? Around 10MB, right? That's quite a difference for anyone...

The whole idea (or a part of it at least) with Teppics work is to update the system partition all the time, to keep as much space available in "data" for your own apps.

[Desire Android Development] gosa:
Jejejeje...

Despite learning English (oh, well.. still learning) 20 years before I started with Spanish I somehow like it better talking about weight than size... It doesn't make sense, and I really don't know why but It's just one of those things...

[Desire Android Development] sibere:
Why not using DATA2SD? I've got 1GB of storage :)

Sent from my HTC Desire with DATA2SD :)
[Desire Android Development] gosa:
You're right, that is an option. And please don't get me wrong here - it's probably a very easy thing to do and with a lot of practical uses for it, but I decided to stay with the stock functions with regards to these kind of changes.

I don't have neither apps2sd+, data2sd or any other variant that requires me to partition/reformat/whatever my SD card. Mostly because I'm a bit too lazy to read up on it. For now I'm quite happy with the extra space it gave me throwing out stuff I don't need from my ROM and then pushing other stuff into the System Partition. The rest of my phone is still keeping with the "general" idea for why this thread was (I suppose anyway) created - to have something rooted with as close to stock functionality I choose to keep it.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zilch25:
techmik67 speaks the truth... I got my first Android phone (THIS ONE) on July 18th and started lurking these forums less than a week later.

Right now I'm installing VMWare and installing Linux as a virtual machine so that I can deox ROMs, all-the-while combing over the Captivate source code in hopes that I might find some clue as to why our kernel is locked to the AT&T modem files. I'm not even kidding =P

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] techmik67:
I am assuming you are talking about a stock Captivate. If you haven't done anything to it, I believe you would see this in SETTINGS>ABOUT PHONE

Baseband version: I897UCJF6

Kernel: I can't remember

Build number: Eclair

The 1st thing I did next was a 1 click root.

Next, and this is a personal choice, download and install from the thread SREv1.2.1a. If you read that 150+ page thread (most importantly, the OP) it will tell you that it includes some important things, like sideloading enabled and others.

Then see if you want a lagfix

At that point, your settings should now read:

Baseband version: I897UCJF6

Kernel: Same I think

Build number: SREv1.2.1a

I would install ROM MANAGER and QUICKBOOT from the market asap. Then consider upgrading firmware (baseband version) from UCJF6 to UCJH2 or JH3. Read the threads. And check my signature to see my setup, which I like alot.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madjsp:
How did you side load? did you actually "install" it, or did you "push" it to your phone? If it is installed, it will be in your app drawer. If you pushed it, you'll need to use the my files program to find the app, and just open it and hit install.

I would suggest reading the SRE thread, because that is probably one of the best way to really get your phone faster.

You can also check out the Unleash the Beast thread. Then check out any lag fix by Tayutama (that is what I use, and I'm not sure on the spelling) because that will make your phone quicker!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
i have tried the i9000 rom, which was awesome, but i got tired of that little video call button mocking me :) so i switched back to stock UCJF6 and did the SRE1.21a.

how would i go about upgrading my firmware without reflashing everything and losing what i have already done? i have read the threads regarding the JH3 rom, but didnt see anything about how to do it without losing my current setup
