Hi, long time lurker, first time poster. Got a bit of a problem flashing the ROM, it gets about half way through and then I get:

E: Can't mount SDEXT:

E: Failure at line 11:

copy_dir PACKAGE:date SDEXT:

Installation aborted.

:confused: can anybody help? It would be much appreciated :)
[Desire Android Development] robocik:
well the camera is a *****... dont want to work :/

Hope that someone find a solution.
[Desire Android Development] feenty:
Maybe not the best topic for this question:

There is hungarian language in this new sense. Is it possible to port it to the older one?
[Desire Android Development] robocik:
well i had this too, i solved it with removing and remaking the ext partition, you can also repartition your whole sdcard...

something strange sometimes happens when comming from other rom, ext partition has owner problems, repartition seems to solve it...

sorry, still looking for how to solve that.
[Desire Android Development] HC4Life:
I want this rom so badly.

But first make the camera working, please, please, please...:p
[Desire Android Development] cCeT:
i think i'll wait till camera works.but thx for your all hard work.
[Desire Android Development] Cactus42:
You don't have an EXT directory set up on your SD Card, or it's too small. If you do have one it's corrupted and you need to repartition
[Desire Android Development] K900:
Hardly possible. Just wait for the devs to get the god damn camera fixed

Of course, cam is the first!

When i bought my Desire there was a question in me: where is the 2nd cam for video call... But now: THANK YOU HTC! :D

Hi, first post in the forum...and sorry for the noob questions...

Will this patch stop the annoying lag after unlock(phone is unusable fo aroung 5sec.)? Does this change in v4?

I just rooted and flashed my desire yesterday(pretty noob eh?)...so do i need to rename this patch to update.zip and install via recovery(i sort of don't get the concept of the update.zip and adding patches/addons to a currently installed roms)?

P.s. about to test v4...thx for the great work on this rom, and thx in advance if someone answers my questions

Hi,

I have an playback issue

when I record an 800*600 video it plays but it stops the videoplayback but audio works fine.
[Desire Android Development] dipje:
The whole reason people don't advise to use ext3 / ext4 is because the whole journaling adds wear & tear and unneeded I/O to your SD card.

But I'm running the 'early' 0.14 here (while it wasn't on the frontpage yet) which I tweaked here and there, but the filesystem it creates is an ext4 filesystem, and then _turns journaling off_. So it's basicly a modern more ext2 filesystem.

I see no reason to pick ext2 over ext4-without-a-journal to be honest.

I'm running v014 here. I've thrown out all apk's I don't want / need, and I place it all back in /system/app like normal. So I've got a big-ass 320mb data to fit in /system. I've modified my MTD partitions to 340mb system, 40mb cache, and the leftover (like 55mb) for data. So the whole v014 fits into the NAND of my Desire. For a reason I don't yet understand the creator of data2ext (or this ROM) want to place the dalvik-cache on the NAND. I've removed that (because my data is too small in NAND) so it goes into the data2ext like most other stuff now.

Got a 600mb ext partition that has 400mb free, Running it with coutts' kernel and didn't had a single lockup, FC or reboot yet and it's all very very smooth. Initial running was indeed very 'stuttery' but while looking at my logcat you would see _ a lot of stuff happening _. Once that stopped the phone was smooth as butter.

So I don't get what the 014b version does, and this whole switching back to ext2 again. The whole concept was fine the way it was right?
[Desire Android Development] aaa:
I personally don't use recording and video streaming function too often but....

Some problems were reported during video streaming.

Could this be related to streaming video problem? The one with only audio but no pics?

Hmmm....
[Desire Android Development] robocik:
I am not gonna switch back to ext2, i am gonna test the modified script to check if it works better or not... I never run out of memory, so for me is the OF version best ;) it is smooth and very quick, data2ext is quicker in quadrant but i dont see the speed in everyday use...

But things need to be tested, so i have to test it ;)

Anyhow, i am gonna update the Z rom tonight, let see what happens until then, maybe something new is gonna pop up ;) hehe

cheers and cu l8r guys, have to run for now.
[Desire Android Development] vivmar:
Hi,thx for your work,just a question:

If i install the 0.14b version with a ext2 partition already present,i need to use your patch? or is already ok without the patch?
[Desire Android Development] Simc13:
Try this. http://www.broadbandgenie.co.uk/blog/20101019-how-root-htc-desire
[Desire Android Development] robocik:
v0.14b uses the original modified ownheres script, which format your ext to ext4, no matter what you used at the begining you will have ext4 after the rom boots...

Tu have ext2 you have to install the 0.14b WITHOUT a boot, then flash this script and boot... then it will use ext2.
[Desire Android Development] bobsie41:
At last!

Just installed 14b ext2-2gb and everything is fine and smooth.

Couldnt insall 14 d2sd as i had the force close problem.

I am very pleased with what i have so far but the real icing on the cake for me would be for somebody to sort the sound but no video problem with catchuptv, spb tv, myplayer etc.

Anybody got any further ideas on this yet?
[Desire Android Development] vivmar:
thx so much m8 ;)
[Desire Android Development] Flashmaniac:
wherre to find that script ?
[Desire Android Development] xcesco89:
great job robocik!!!

version 0.14 with 2.5GB EXT3 works fine for me!! very fast!!:D

only one little bug: when i download applications from the market, during installation del home freeze for 1-2 seconds, but i think is because i have a class 4 SD!:D
[Desire Android Development] wency_99:
i have a noob question... just bought a Kingston class 10 16gb SD card and it writes fast in my PC when I copy back my files... but when I use with this ROM, it's slow... slower than my class 2 Sandisk SD card... does this ROM have the sd speed fix?

The script in version 0.14b will overwrite ext2 with ext4. Ext2 will be faster but ext4 with journaling will be more save.
[Desire Android Development] dzontra11:
I already have this rom, can now do this?
[Desire Android Development] melethron:
Hmm,

Many of those:

E/dalvikvm( 446): opt header write failed: No space left on device

did you modify your nand partition size or add some apk's to system? Kinda looks like your system partition is full.

Did you try to reflash it?
[Desire Android Development] acef16pilot:
No it was coming from a stock Rom, rooted then installed clockwork, tried to re flash a few times i have subsequently flashed with AuraxTSense_8.1.1 successfully and then tried to go to RCMixHD and still the same issue.
[Desire Android Development] aaa:
Finally! I got "android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly" after rebooting. This happened more than 1 day of usage.

Hahahahaha....

So I got also some problem with this ROM.

I will wait for the next stable version.

Hahahahahaha....
[Desire Android Development] woti23:
when you are at it while logging with logcat when the disk full message appears

exit log and do an

adb shell df

you should see which partitions are mounted and which are full
[Desire Android Development] robocik:
which one are you using? d2ext or a2sd ?

try to wipe dalvik-cache, should help...
[Desire Android Development] melethron:
Quick question for those that had issues with fc's in 0.14. Did someone expirience missing user data (like app settings or stuff like that). I try to find out if the loop device was the reason that causes the fc's. I had to pull the battery (not because of the rom - i oc'ed a kernel to a too value to test something) and all the corruption that occured afterwards was in /data/data (after i deleted the user data fc's were gone) and since /data/data is on loopback it might be the reason.
[Desire Android Development] melethron:
On 0.14b with data2ext?
[Desire Android Development] twics:
Just wanted to know if it was possible to flash the v0.14 old fashion on top of 0.13 id rather not do the hole setup thingy again plus its working pretty well, also is there a noticable difference between the data2sd 0.14b and old fashion 0.14

Thanks:)

Edit>

Requirement:

* Full wipe required due different structure of the rom.

* EXT partition. The rom uses ext partition as Data partition, so your ext will be your internal storage...

Bigger EXT = Bigger Internal Storage.

I recommend 1Gb of EXT due this rom is huge and over 300Mb is used right after installation.

I use EXT2 2GB, class4 8GB sdcard.

sorry my bad:o:o:o:o:o

Quick question to melethron.

i flashed your script , then i notice one thing :

i have 3gb ext2 partition. without flashing your script, using original 014b, i had 1.97gb free afterwards.

then i tried your script, wiping everything, then i notice i only get 1.59gb free after reinstallation.

Just curious, where did the rest 0.3gb go ? :)

BL
[Desire Android Development] mayurh:
for a noobie like me

is there a way that this whole script thing can be done automatically?
[Desire Android Development] bluelavender:
Robocik,

How do i install new fonts ? i tried using martino font-changer and it freeze upon reboot. It happens since 014 data2ext version

BL
[Desire Android Development] aaa:
I am using the v14 (not the v14b) original version with D2EXT on 1.5GB EXT2.

About the wiping stuff...hehehe...too late...I am in the middle of restoring my complete bckup from v13 + leedroids kernel... :D
[Desire Android Development] Inibes711:
OMG :o

i just set my CPU speed to around 1200 MhZ (i didn't want to set it, but i missed the 1113 mhz :D ) and my desire just lags and reboots all the time, about 5-10 seconds after rebooting on its own.

Now it just stays on, the screen stays on, but it does not react, even when i press the power button?

What can i do? My Rom Version is the one with the extra zip for camera, i think it was 0.12 .
[Desire Android Development] robocik:
set the speed on lower values, very few phones can go past 1113MHz...
[Desire Android Development] robocik:
gonna try it, have not tryed it before...

what font are you trying to use? where do i get them?
[Desire Android Development] robocik:
try the v014 OF next time ;)
[Desire Android Development] Ronaldo_9:
i'm back to v13 with different kernel and i can deffo tell you it feels very nice and fast.

no more home screen freezing for few seconds while apps are downloadig or installing. removing widgets to bin is quick.

now i only thing is the battery issue i'm having. no new apps since i came over from leedroid but i seem to drain but now trying a different kernel instead of the b33 i was using.

oh now on ext2 instead of ext3
[Desire Android Development] bluelavender:
robocik, i tried the fontchanger application from martino : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=744363

it worked with v013, but then again it was a2sd+. So i'm not sure if this font changer will not work with data2sdext.

BL
[Desire Android Development] Inibes711:
I cannot do anything because my phone reboots after 5 seconds. That's my problem...
[Desire Android Development] dazzlet:
So is it normal that it shows data2sd and apps2sd?
[Desire Android Development] qwertylesh:
Had this problem with RCmixHD on its own.

Solution was to reflash it, then immediately flash on a custom kernel. I also went to the extent of flashing on the latest radio, but that may not be needed.

A custom kernel, one that undervolts less is a good start to fix ur problem.

best of luck Inibes711
[Desire Android Development] robocik:
Ok, so it will probably work on v014OF... gonna check what i can do, to fix that in data2ext version...
[Desire Android Development] Melodylion:
When in the flashing process can i flash a new kernel?
[Desire Android Development] woti23:
/data is completely full so this is the cause

and if the mount output above is complete

then the data2sd file is not loop mounted on /mnt/asec/somemountpoint

all you could do to boot up and examine the phone further while running is

in recovery

adb shell mount /data

adb shell mount /sd-ext

adb shell mkdir -p /sd-ext/dalvik-cache

adb shell chmod 771 /sd-ext/dalvik-cache

adb shell rm -r /data/dalvik-cache

adb shell ln -s /system/sd/dalvik-cache /data/dalvik-cache

and temporaly remove the data2sd script

adb shell mount /system

adb remount

adb shell chmod 000 /system/etc/init.d/00data2ext # if its called so

and reboot without flashing new

but the would be the hassle of finding out why it isn't loop-mounted

maybe melethron can have a look at it, as he knows the script better
[Desire Android Development] qwertylesh:
yes, provided you've backed up everthing and you have clockwork recovery, you can format everything, then mount USB under partitions menu, copy the RCmixHD zip and the custom kernel zip to your handset, flash RCmixHD then the kernel zip, (and without formatting further) reboot, and it should be stable.

Be sure to choose a kernel with a higher millivolt number (i.e, u dont want 8xx(mv) you want 9xx(mv)

(>^_^)>

Some boards will reset and lockup from undervoltage they cannot handle, not all desires will run severely undervolted, but if you have one that does and is stable, good stuff, if not, just choose one lesser undervolted. <(^_^<)

Regarding the best kernel.

Guys, try the one from Sub501 - http://android.modaco.com/content/htc-desire-desire-modaco-com/317163/kernel-kernel-and-mods/ . It's awesome.

1) Very long battery life. 4-5mA power consumprion during sleep. On coutts99 kernel (875mV version) I got 8mA - almost twice as much.

2) Blazing fast.

3) Fully customizable via scripts, without SetCPU. Even the voltages on different frequencies can be set manually, and the wireless power, the governors, e.t.c.

The only drawback is: it doesn't have gpu+ fix. Personally I don't care.

[Desire Android Development] maxupp:
hi mates,...

is there a way to change the swiping behavior of the sense homescreens? i really love sense and all its upsides, but i really don't like the way it bounces back everytime you swipe to another homescreen.

is there, like, a variable that can change the elasticity of sense?
[Desire Android Development] melethron:
We'll i actually don't care about numbers in a benchmark and the actually usage behavior is more important for me too, but some large apps (like google earth) are loading slightly faster. And the ROM wasn't also as sluggy as before when the apps were reinstalled after first boot.

But the main reason i would prefer ext2 is the rather high usage of the sd with data2sd.

What is a sd-card commonly used for? Well for some storage like pictures on cameras or for mp3 players. While reading isn't a problem considering the lifetime of a sd-card .... writing is. Compared to the usage of camera or mp3 player data2sd will write much more often to the sd.

The writecycles of a typical flash drive are about 10.000 to 100.000. To extend the lifetime of sd-card they do several things like algorithms that distribute the writing over the complete card (to avoid "hot spots" - if one sector would be rewritten every 10s it wouldn't last 10 days). Well and one other thing that is common on flash drives is to use FAT although NTFS is the better filesystem. And now guess what: NTFS is a Journaling filesystem and FAT isn't. And why the do this ... less write cycles

So for the rather sporadic writes of a camera or mp3 player they avoid using a journaling filesystem and now for the heavy use of data2ext i should use one?

You get my point why i prefer ext2 over ext4 ??? ;)

But with that said i still have to relativise my point: I'll actually give a f**k about those slightly more bad blocks if i expierence problems with ext2 (due to failed unmounts) and i'll going to use ext4 then. But if ext2 is working fine i use due to sheer logic ^^

....oh and did i meantion i got a higher score on quadrant with ext2 :D :D :D
