Hi teppic. No hurry.

Market also shows maps update for me. Maybe you could update both?
[Desire Android Development] Mekrel:
Just to let you know that Titanium Backup update has been released that allows Market update to be moved to ROM.

This should negate the need for Teppic to update the application add-on all the time.

However, I tried the Titanium backup "move update to ROM" batch and the applications it moved now force close.

I've been in contact with the developer of TB, to see if he can fix it but he said it works fine for other users?
[Desire Android Development] ssauger:
For me the Titanium Backup function move sys updates to rom works fine.
[Desire Android Development] duryard:
Many thanks dinaroga that way worked a treat. If peeps was to write how tos clearley it would save a lot of headache
[Desire Android Development] instillation:
Tried to use new features of TB and at the end had to reinstall the ROM. :mad:
[Desire Android Development] Mekrel:
I'm sure Joel will find out what's causing the issue for some users, he's a great developer and has been giving us new features constantly. Rather than doing a hit and run with our money.

Anyways, this is slightly off topic. Sorry Teppic.
[Desire Android Development] fotoboogie:
Yes agree Titanium integrate update in system Rom function would* be good and save teppic time to release updates for us and perhaps give time for new stock ROM rooting.

*Be warned I attempted Titanium integrate function and lost entirely flash, maps, market apps !!! Had to restore from previous nandroid to get them back!!

....looked around apparently one needs S-Off on the phone. Anyone know easiest and most stable way to achieve this? Is it NEC a good thing?
[Desire Android Development] mobilkungen78:
I installed the init.d rom with a2sd+ and the sd card speed is very low about 600kb/s before it was 1600kb/s

has anyone had this problem?

titanium backup app-into-rom integration messed up my market app, so had to restore, so its not really working. im not s-off btw.
[Desire Android Development] mobilkungen78:
thanx for the help much apprechiated :D
[Desire Android Development] dinaroga:
remember to always backup before you flash anything. happy flashing.
[Desire Android Development] SlCKB0Y:
Maps is now at 4.7.0, flash has been updated and so has the market. I was thinking, would it be possible to explain how we would make these updates ourselves? At least then maybe one of us could do it and people would stop bugging you :)
[Desire Android Development] teppic74:
Maps is already updated. I'm wary about pushing a Market update into system in case it leads to problems (and the update might not apply to all areas). As for Flash, I will update that once tested.

It's straightforward to update most apps, if you know how to use your phone via adb in recovery.
[Desire Android Development] casca:
Hello Teppic, won't you upgrade the base rom to the new 2.29?

Everytime a flash a different rom from yours, I always get back to it once again...that's got a mean something mate :)

Best battery ever with your rom
[Desire Android Development] the-fallen:
Why not 2.33? :) I have it running for 2 days now (used teppic's 2.10 and after that 2.29). I flashed my kernel that I made for teppic74 2.10 ROM and so I am able to use his mods, even the circleMod is working.

There are some differences between 2.29 and 2.33 (I compared the ROMs because I wanted to know what's new). Nothing really new but its based on a newer Build and SDK Release as well as there are some newer versions of the integrated Apps (most of them could also be updated using the Marked).

It does not seem to consume less power or be any faster. I think most of the changes are internally some minor fixes and refreshes. So there is no urgent need to upgrade. But if teppic74 decides to do so, I hope he will use 2.33 and hereby I'm offering my will to help him.
[Desire Android Development] casca:
tks for the info mate. 100% agreed! :)

I'm currently using dj droid 1.8, but i've applied the screenscript from teppic :) working like a charm!!! someone should make some sort of topic saying that the Init.d enabled roms, can use those mods.

I have optimum battery life with that small mod, and there is no need for setcpu either...lol

I'm surprised every freakin day with android...
[Desire Android Development] chichoko:
Can you please tell me on which script you are refering? Ive only found the power saving pack but i dont want to mess too much with my ROM atm and id only like the screen off powersaving :)
[Desire Android Development] mycycon:
hi do u have to deodex for the super circle battery????
[Desire Android Development] scutworker:
No, you don't. Just follow the instructions on the first post, flash the file and you are good to go.
[Desire Android Development] casca:
just install the powersaving 1.6 at first post, through recovery :)
[Desire Android Development] chichoko:
Thanks mate ;) appreciated..
[Desire Android Development] teppic74:
I'll look at providing an updated base ROM. I do wonder if it's worth it though if there are no obvious improvements (that you don't get anyway from updating the apps etc. with the mods). I've been using this ROM on my phone without problems since I first made it.
[Desire Android Development] casca:
if you don't mind me saying...you should "join forces" with Mekrel and do together one single thread with the latest FULL stock froyo rom just with root and with the possible tweaks ".zip", this way both of you have less work and you can keep the roms updated between you guys...

just an idea though, since both of your roms are init.d enabled and are very similar.
[Desire Android Development] gosa:
I just had something a bit weird happening to me...

I've managed to download and run update apps 1.5 and update misc apps 1.0

- So far so good, it seems that everything "took". I even replaced the Maps.apk in the "Update Apps 1.5" with a newer one and got that one installed without problems.

One thing though - I read on the first page that it's "advisable" to apply some kind of mod before updating flash. I thought - Oh, heck - I'll try it anyway, without modding. Worst thing that could happen is I have to revert to a nandroid backup, right?

So I downloaded the flash update, and applied it. And here is where it gets a bit strange... After rebooting I seem to have more space left on my System partition than before (it went from around 10mb to almost 17mb) And - when trying to check the status of flash it now only occupies 56kb.

Trying to visit flash-intense pages gives me complaints about having to download and install a flash plugin...

So.. can anyone explain to me what just happened?
[Desire Android Development] gosa:
Ok... so I've been experimenting a bit with the different options.

Installing "systemflash-12-signed.zip" straight away frees up space in my system partition as I described above. I don't seem to get any plugin, because when browsing to - for example - www.10mg.nl and clicking one of their flash objects I get a message telling me I don't have a plugin.

Applying the "Tweaks" first really doesn't do me any good either - result is exactly the same.

I thought for a while that I cunfused the two (systemflash and updateflash" with each others, so I also started over and ran the updateflash - that gave me even more space left on my system partition, but of course - as it turned out I had it all right from the beginning - it didn't give me any flash.

So - my question to anyone who has any insight - could this be because I'm applying the updates on a stock wwe rom that's only rooted with unrevoked? I neither have S-OFF, nor am I running the init.d support?

(to be fair it doesn't say on page 1 that the apps updates and the flash update require init.d support to do this - or have I missed something?)

So - next wuestion - if it's about my rom not having init.d support, and I'm happy enough with having my apps (exept for Flash) updated - can I use the space left on my System partition to push a few apps there that weren't theree from the beginning? (my tracks, a movie player etc)?

Thanks in advance,

Gosa
[Desire Android Development] chichoko:
It very well may be because you dont have init.d support.. bit why would you update flash from a .zip file and not directly from the market? It will work perfectly from there..

Sent from my, reborn in HD, Vanilla Desire.
[Desire Android Development] rafadose:
Best ROM

Thanks guy, this is the best desire ROM I've never tested.
[Desire Android Development] gosa:
Why? Because I want to save space in my "availabe" memory by putting Flash somewhere else...

- In the end it is a 10+ mb difference after all...
[Desire Android Development] Cthugha:
Yet another version of Adobe Flash Player released. Latest version is now 10.1.105.7.

Also, it would be really nice to have updated apps-package with Google Maps 4.7.0.

Apart from that - great ROM :)

Data2SD working perfectly - have up to 2GB internal storage

Hi Teppic,

Have been using your ROM with a few mods since got my desire. Just a quick note that I have been testing Data2SD on it (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=852219&highlight=data2sd) and it works perfectly. Very stable and my IO scores in Quadrant are way up. I now have 747MB internal storage (made a Data2SD partition of 768MB), about 70 (user) apps installed and have 457MB left. This is internal storage so not only apps, but data uses this as well.

I'll continue testing it but am very happy with it thus far (i.e. don't have to worry about storage anymore) - would suggest others give it a go, as it basically means we don't have to keep bugging Teppic to update system apps as with up to 2GB internal storage can just leave system apps where they are and install the updates to internal (i.e. Data2SD partition). i.e. With (up to) 2GB of internal storage - who cares about leaving the old system apps (i.e. youtube, maps, flash etc) in /system and having updates in /data/apps (which is really in the Data2SD partition).

For those that don't know, Data2SD is kind of like Apps2SD but has the whole /Data folder in there (not just /data/apps like Apps2SD has). It's a bit different in that we create an ext2/3/4 file (virtual ext file system) in a 2nd fat32 parition (on the SD card) instead of a ext2/3/4 parition (like in apps2sd) - actually a similar approach to the Samsung galaxy S lagfix. Anyways, there has been probs with moving the /data folder to a ext2/3/4 partition, but no probs in using a ext2/3/4 file (as long as keep it under 2GB - apparently Market can have some probs if using >2GB).

Anyways, will continue to test and report back if there are any issues.

Jay.
[Desire Android Development] teppic74:
I thought that I had put Maps 4.7.0 in the last update but will check that again.
[Desire Android Development] FreeWolF80:
Excuse me I have a question: with this rom (I had flashed with the first package without init.d), when HTC (if htc...) release an official update, I will to be able to receive it via OTA and install it ?

Ok i know, if i flash with an official update I will lose the root.
[Desire Android Development] foXenNA:
While you are rooted you won't get any ota.

Updates

I've updated the systemflash for the new version of Flash, and apps mods (Google Maps 4.7.0).
[Desire Android Development] ragwo:
Thanks a lot!

Excellent ROM :-)
[Desire Android Development] gosa:
Hey teppic, thanks for that update!

I kind of went proactive on the Maps update and replaced it in the zip myself.

Another thing - I previously asked about the Flash Update - it seems it doesn't take, and I was wondering if you can tell me - for sure - that it is because I'm not running the init.d version of the ROM? (I'm on a WWE 2.2 that's rooted with Unrevoked)

All other software Updates perfectly, just not Adobe Flash...
[Desire Android Development] scutworker:
Cheers, teppic. That's freed up some space on my phone.
[Desire Android Development] teppic74:
Try installing the update flash mod to restore the phone back to the stock Flash installation, boot the phone, then reboot to recovery and install the latest mod. It has nothing to do with init.d.
[Desire Android Development] MightySashiman:
Hi all,

being using this rom with several of the addons for a while, absolutely no problem. But getting tired of having to uninstall apps to make space, I finally decided to try out for the first time apps to sd stuff. So I repartitioned my brilliant 16gb class 10 card (11mb/sec pc->sd card transfer rate) to add ext2/3 space, then installed the a2sd+ addon, wiped everything, and there i'm off installing happily numerous apps. COOL. But the downside of that seems to be that transfer rates pc->sd seem to get significantly slower, pausing every 2 or 3 secs for a while, transfering a little bit, pausing again, and so on... FOR AGES. I suppose that it's because the ext partition being still mounted and permanently accessed by the system, sdcards must supposely not be great at simultaneous read/writes... Is there any way round ? Am I doing something wrong ?

Thx in advance for the help ;)
[Desire Android Development] pilgrim011:
Thank you for the updates. Great work, as always.:)
[Desire Android Development] faceN:
Thanks for the updates. Just works :)
[Desire Android Development] iroironz:
That doesn't sound right, I've only got a class 4 and definitely don't have those issues. what did you use to format the fat32 partition? What cluster (allocation) size did you use?
[Desire Android Development] Derevko:
Do you plan to update the ROM to 2.29.405.2 ?
[Desire Android Development] pilgrim011:
+1. This is the official FOTA for unbranded Desire:
[Desire Android Development] gosa:
Thanks for your reply,

Tried that and it didn't work. All it leaves me is with more free space on my System Partition than I started with and a phone that says it's got Adobe Flash installed but listing it as occupying only 56kb. Trying to browse to a webpage with Flash items just tells me to download and install Flash.

Downloading and trying to run .swf doesn't seem to work either...

Any ideas?
[Desire Android Development] dkawa:
so will you publish the new firmware with root?
[Desire Android Development] rock3r:
+1 for 2.29.405.2 update when you have time to, thanks:D
[Desire Android Development] LfcFan1977:
Please can somebody tell me if the INFOCID is HTC__001?
[Desire Android Development] MightySashiman:
hmm, good question. Well I had a fat32 partition before repartitionning. I used the clockworkmod recovery feature to repartition and add a 1gb ext2/3 (never now) partition. So I suppose the recovery is also what partitionned in fat32. Don't have any idea what cluster alloc size I have... I'm fully listening if you can help :) thx in advance.
[Desire Android Development] fotoboogie:
Teppic is king! And I a loyal servant. Thanks for the apps/flash updates. brilliant, solid and top quality as ever.

What's with new Rom version out there, is it something particularly necessary?

Beer on its way teppic, and if you all haven't sent one already ... you should
[Desire Android Development] starsie:
Thank you for the updates and all of the hard work in general. Absolutely flawless so far.

Yet a question...

Got an unbranded Desire and received an OTA a few hours ago. Pretty obvious that i was not able to update due to Clockwork recovery and ect.

I would just go ahead and completely flash the whole 2.29.405.2 rom and then root it, but i won't get "init.d" by doing that. No "init.d" = NO A2SD+ and POWERSAVING MODPACK.

That is unacceptable for me, 'cos i won't be able to install even half of the apps i need with stock a2sd. I do not know how to "init.d enable" or modify roms (i'm a musician:o)

I'm pretty sure you get the whole idea.

Therefore...

Are you planning to release a 2.29.405.2 rooted, init.d enabled rom and if NOT, what would be your suggestion for people like me.

I absolutely understand, that it is not a paid job for you, therefore i ask you not to be affended by such inquiry.

Hope to hear from you and thank you again.
[Desire Android Development] iroironz:
I usually use 32k for the fat32 partition - find I get fastest/most consistent transfer rates. I usually use gparted to partition my card, and then reformat the fat32 partition to 32k allocation size in windows (for some reason gparted doesn't give cluster/allocation size options when formatting). Find I get the best performance then. Anyways, I suggest you mount the fat32 partition in windows (disk drive mode), back up all the contents and then format it (in windows) and then copy all the stuff back onto the newly formatted fat32 partition.

Jay.
[Desire Android Development] dinaroga:
thanks for the update teppic!
[Desire Android Development] cbgb:
Do I have to uninstall market-updates (e.g. facebook) before applying teppics updates?
[Desire Android Development] scutworker:
No, you do not. Just apply the update and the version on your phone in the data partition will be automatically removed when you reboot.
[Desire Android Development] teppic74:
I will look at updating the base ROM to the newer release. I think that this base with the updated apps is fine for now (it's what I use) but when I have a couple of days spare I'll see what I can do.

If anyone can point me to the RUU for the new release I'd be grateful.

And thank you for the beer :)

Why not take the very latest:

RUU_Bravo_Froyo_Vodafone_UK_2.33.161.2_Radio_32.49 .00.32U_5.11.05.27_release

Using it for some weeks with some of Teppic74's mods. Should work on every Desire (using a German T-Mob phone on an o2 network). Can also be easiliy modified to run Teppic74's Mods (just recompile the kernel to match the appended version string). Even the CircleMod does work fine as well as the WLAN/CIFS pack and the powersaving pack.

There are some differences between 2.29 and 2.33 (some newer Apps (not important)) and it is based on a newer Build. More details I already posted in the above mentioned Thread.

Hereby I am offering my help again.
[Desire Android Development] starsie:
Oh great, thanx for the great news Teppic!

In my humble opinion it would be safer and more suitable for everyone to go with an unbranded rom

(RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.2_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_151783_signed),

than a "newer" VODAFONE one.

From what i read on the net those roms are not newer, they just include carrier mods and are not actual HTC releases.

Oh bummer...wanted to post a link to the rom, but it won't let me, '"new user"...

[Desire Android Development] the-fallen:
But the Software within that ROM *IS* newer than 2.29, I wrote a little script that compares the versions of all shipped .apk's. Beside that, the build.prop tells a higher build-number and a newer build-release. There were some other changes like the "new" boot screen.

The Branding? Did not found anything but a little string within the build.prob that I changed to match those from the x.xx.405.x ROMs.

[Desire Android Development] schoerb:
There are new updates for youtube and google voice search. Could you please make new update-zips? Thanks in advance :-)
[Desire Android Development] bubble:
You can now easily integrate updated system apps yourself using Titanium Backup ;)
[Desire Android Development] namz:
I dont understand 1 thing ..people talk about adding upgrading apps..cant we get them from market itself...mine youtube upgraded today on its own..and I am on same Teppic's ROM..
[Desire Android Development] scutworker:
Yes, you can update them from the market (and this will often be automatic), but the update is saved to your 'data' partition on the phone taking up valuable space.

As an example: the old version of the Youtube app is on your system partition where the Android operating system resides. Any new apps you download, like Angry Birds, are saved to 'data'. When you update an app that came with the phone it is saved to the 'data' area and the phone then uses that one rather than the one saved to 'system'.

What Teppic's updates do is move the update to the 'system' partition so that you don't lose space on the data partition. That way you still have space for new apps.

Somebody has suggested using "Titanium Backup" to do this yourself. This can be used, but only if you have got S-Off on your phone.
[Desire Android Development] gosa:
But only if you're S-OFF

Edit: Sorry scutworker - posted before I saw your post..
[Desire Android Development] gosa:
If you see there's an update out and want to do it yourself you can try what I did with Google Maps the other day:

1. Update your app from the market

2. Back it up to SD with Titanium Backup

3. Download the Zip that contains the older version of the app you want to update

4. Open that zip in winrar (don't extract - just open it), navigate to the folder that contains the apk and replace that apk with the one you backed up to SD from your card. (You have to rename it so it fits the name of the file you're replacing) Close the zip, and move it to your SD

5. Apply the Zip as you would do it with a regular Teppic release.

I did this with Maps without problems, and you could probably do it with most apps in these updates. I would be leave Flash though, since Teppic has mentioned something about that being a bit more tricky.
[Desire Android Development] Electrocut:
You are right, Flashplayer is a little bit more tricky: the zip file content differs, because the 2 libraries libflashplayer.so and libysshared.so need to be extracted from the apk, and store separately.

But your method works great, for impatient people :) (but instead of using Titanium Backup, I type the command "cp /data/app/application_name.apk /sdcard", as root, in a command shell)
[Desire Android Development] Cthugha:
Gmail has also been updated.
[Desire Android Development] teppic74:
I'll provide an update for the apps tomorrow.

I have also updated the base to 2.29.405.2, though for now some of the mods won't work (this will come later). I'll upload this tomorrow too.
[Desire Android Development] pilgrim011:
Great. :) I hope that at least a2sd+ and battery percentage mods will still work.
[Desire Android Development] the-fallen:
Most of the mods (those that use pre-compiled kernel modules) simply do not work because the kernels version-appendix is different to the stock 2.10 one.

You just need to recompile the kernel using the "old" appendix string (or use another kernel) and they'll work again.
[Desire Android Development] gosa:
I'm not touching the flash updates anyway, because I can't get them to work for some reason, and I'm not "clever" enough about these things to be able to figure out why.

One question though - Now that I can't get Flash to work I still have some space on the system partition. So I've been looking for info on adding other apps to that partition - apps that weren't there from the beginning...

Is it as easy as changing the "script" in the zip and add the app, or do I have to do something else? (Maybe this is something for another thread... sorry about that)
[Desire Android Development] Unit_A:
Awesome , i've been using your rom since the first release and never looked back :)

Can't wait to flash the new one even if it is a minor update ^_^
[Desire Android Development] teppic74:
There's no problem with the modules, I just haven't had time yet to update everything. I will mark which mods are compatible with the new base (notably the deodex one is most definitely NOT).
