Im sure I will end up with a couple of "search" responses, but I would really like to check something.

Does the HD rom format and remount each of the partitions (excluding FAT32) on install?

i.e. if I made 2 Ext2 partitions + swap, would the install reformat to Ext4?

My reasoning is I want to flash the rotating version but my SD is currently FAT + Ext3, also I have Win7 on my netbook. I dont really want to boot into a linux build, but would prefer to use something like minitool partition wizard to get the partitions creatred on my SD card (as I have been able to thus far).

Thanks In Advance SlyTuk
[Desire Android Development] tomcat84:
Can someone explain what these partitions are for, exactly?

(I know what FAT32 and Swap is for ;))

Im just wondering why I should make one large and one small ext4 partition... what will be put where?
[Desire Android Development] robocik:
the script is reformating the ext partitions, so if you have ext2+ext2 it will make it ext4 automaticly. So you can use the minitool ;)

Ok are you using framework from your rom or from kitchen? its best to extract and copy framework from the rom your using to your desktop, then after you make your theme and it ask you to chose framework navigate/browse to your desktop and select it, it does sometimes take a while to boot back up also.

Just trying to help:)
[Desire Android Development] robocik:
mainly the first ext is to store your installed apks and the second is to store the data ...

EDIT:

Someone testing the DeSensenized ?
[Desire Android Development] tomcat84:
Thx for the answer...

I will be testing in about ~ 30 minutes :D
[Desire Android Development] SlyTuk:
Perfect dude - looks like this one could be my ideal rom; HD font size + rotating :)
[Desire Android Development] twics:
Sorry Robo:o ant tried it yet still playing around with v3.4 thought you had someone testing it already,

just a little feed back v3.4: little laggy scroling home screens turn of rotate feels a bit better now, and weather not updating via network, led notification turn off after few mins. also posted from Bratwurst0815 page back.
[Desire Android Development] Exlo:
Yeah, did that before i posted with no luck.

Tried normal reboot again, and it ended in bootloop:confused:

Wiped everything, and installed again, and now it works like a charm:D

Thanks! Keep it up!
[Desire Android Development] Ahalex:
Hi Robo,

I came from Neo´s ReflexTSense and when I read your rotating release yesterday I decided to test it out because I was waiting for this for a while. At first, thank you for this great release, great performance, battery life is ok and much more thank you for your fast support! As one of the long reading users in ReflexTSense-thread I can see the difference...

Unfortunately I also have the issue, that contacts, SMS and calendar is gone after restart. I read the last posts but I didn´t see a fix for that. Is there a chance to get one soon? I know you do your best so I don´t want to stress. :) But it would be nice because I try to wait as long as I can with restart.

Another question: Is my understanding tight that the D2EXT-Script converts my EXT2-partition to EXT4 automatically?

Thanks in advance.
[Desire Android Development] robocik:
will check the issue little later, now my phone is flashing... ;)

yes D2EXT script will convert or format your ext partitions as ext4

Ok Robo gonna flash test DeSensenized any areas main concern or just roll with it and see what happens?

Edit> I think I should update my radio
[Desire Android Development] robocik:
well test it in all aspects ;) hehe only thing what i found is the FC if you set up your phone to quickly and it has not setted your time zone yet, then if you choose it manually you get a FC... so in case it happens to you, just push ok in the time zone select screen, even if it does not show your time zone. You can choose your time zone later without problems.
[Desire Android Development] Nitin985:
I think you may have a brick. Correct me if I'm wrong
[Desire Android Development] Corwin96:
I used a different SD and came a step further. Now it just froze at the android boot screen.

Trying the desensized version and 3.01 now
[Desire Android Development] tomcat84:
Playing around with the DeSensified version, and everything looks good so far!

No errors for me (yet) ;)

I will report later if it still works after I restored some of my apps with Titanium. (About 50-60 apps...)
[Desire Android Development] Rumball:
I really don't think it is related to your SD card. My money would be that your phone partition or SD partition was not performed as required. If I were you, I would;

1) You indicated you S-Off'd your phone. First off verify that when you did that you didn't change the partition sizes of your phone. Go to the S-Off website (http://alpharev.nl/) and read up. You need to ensure that you used the "Stock" partition (bravo_alphaspl.img) when you S-Off'd. As mentioned before in this thread, any HD ROM will fail otherwise.

2) Next prepare your SD card. Follow the video in http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11908050&postcount=11060 to see how the SD card should be correctly partitioned for data2ext (fat32 + ext4 + ext 4 + swap). When formatting/partitioning your card make sure to either use a usb key or mount your SD card through recovery.

3) Place a copy of the RCMixHD ROM zip on your newly formatted storage card.

4) Perform a full factory data reset/wipe from within recovery

5) Flash the ROM

6) Restart and you should be up and running. If not...I throw in the towel...
[Desire Android Development] simeoncader:
I agree, if you follow all these steps and it still doesn't work then I'm stumped...
[Desire Android Development] twics:
Update on test

first of all as it was booting up I had to go do something for the wife which took about fifteen mins so I guess it had time to settle so no fc with time zone:D iv tested

[Desire Android Development] robocik:
You mean widget? radio should be there... or maybe i forgot to add it again, i was playing with different radios :/ hehe in that case i will add it, this is still a test version ;)

[Desire Android Development] I RICHY I:
I've an issue I was wondering if you can help with. Basically when I try to use browser it tells me I've no space left. I've got 150mb of internal free.

Now a reboot will clear this message for a short period if time. Anyone know why im getting this and how to fix?
[Desire Android Development] BoSib:
Just have to say thank you for the v3.4, running very smooth and fast so far!
[Desire Android Development] hadunka:
Thanks Robo, this rom is quality. I just partitoned Fat + 1GB Ext4 + 0.3GB Ext4 + 0.1GB Swap with gparted and installed. Now everything is running nice and fast, not issues to report.
[Desire Android Development] ravish_919:
But how to edit those notepad or txt files...they are set to read only... & if it can be done by adb then please let me know how to do it from the basic levels cos i'm noob regarding ADB

O can we just simple open the zip in windows or mac, find & edit those txt files & zip it again to flash it ???

It would be very comfortable to rest of the users also if you can make any zip files to flash in recovery like we do for Battery Icons or Notification draw themes from UOT Kitchen...

If possible then can i request 2 variants of those zip files one with both Power switch widgets along with recently used apps & another zip file with only Recently used apps...

Thanks mate once again great update...
[Desire Android Development] dinoalbert:
Hi Robo,

Im still ion A2SD with your older RCSMixHD A2SD+ Rom v0.15.....now with this new v3.4 Rom, I want to try D2EXT.

Can you please point me to the direction on how to convert my A2SD card to D2EXT? Any step by step procedure for an Android OS newbie please. Can I just do it using Clockwork Recovery Mode or should I need a PC for that?

Thank you very much for you hardwork...
[Desire Android Development] robocik:
you need a PC for that. You simply need to make 2 extra partitions on your sdcard.

check this movie, it should help.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D6vVLbtXJdg&feature=player_embedded
[Desire Android Development] robocik:
you need to mount the system first

adb remount

then modify ;)

you can also use root explorer, but it is not for free...

then if you want you can edit the text files before flashing the rom, simply edit them in the zip...

or you can try my desensenized rom, it is possible to customize power control widget buttons from settings, like in aosp rom ;)
[Desire Android Development] dinoalbert:
Thank you very much sir for the quick reply! I cant access youtube here in my office (its blocked hehe) but will check it out later at home.

So you mean, I just follow the video, make 2 extra partition using PC, and then start flashing this new rom with the usual method?

Thanks again...
[Desire Android Development] ravish_919:
Thanks for the suggestions mate... i can't live without sense... i will edit the zip file & then flash it
[Desire Android Development] ranasrule:
any ETA on the A2SD+ version ?
[Desire Android Development] robocik:
will have to wait... trying to get the ginger sense to work. got it booting do far ;)
[Desire Android Development] awynbergen:
latest - Random reboot and freezing

Have the part setup as required,

works cool until you actually start to use the phone with multi tasking,

you know installing while sending sms or, swapping between settings and browser to

copy paste.

it is an awesome ROM though.

any ideas ?
[Desire Android Development] ravish_919:
Wtf... this is something bigger than yesterday's update...

U guys rock...

i wanna integrate titanium backup into the rom like u did for rom manager... pls help me to do this...i also want Root Explorer...

like u said me to open the zip & edit those txt files to get recently used apps, i did that & worked.. i've also remove some useless apps like stocks, news, teeter, voice commander & flashed it.. it was great i started playing with this rom now...
[Desire Android Development] ravish_919:
i've kept ES file browser, My Backup Pro, Titanium Backup 3.7.3, Maps 5.2.1, Flash 10.120, Barcode Scanner & Advanced Task manager but after flashing i just got Titanium backup in chinese & no rom manager also...any suggestions

Same over here... no weather update... Great rom, the 3.4 version though! Battery use is fair! (40 minutes bluetooth, two phonecalls connected to carkit) now still 96%...

Haven't found any other issues... except the cyberon application closed unexpectedly... I've deinstalled it... no biggy.

Now the powerwidget is installed, is it possible to alter the taskbar icons (battery percentage and so on)? Or is it wise not to install?

cheers!

p.s. haven't updated my signature yet... I'm on version 3.4

Personalise button

Hey just wondering, but where to customize the personalized button. I've been searching here for at least an hour now and I still haven't figured our how to customize the button, or assign it to a certain app.

When I try to move an app, the "remove" bar pops up :(
[Desire Android Development] :
Installed 3.0.1 today runs great. Very smooth sometimes slow to open apps duno why? Just general lag?
[Desire Android Development] simeoncader:
It's here. But these are not for 3.4, so if you're running 3.4 it will remove the rotation and customisation put into this version. We have to wait till robo updates it to the latest base... If you are running 3 / 3.0.1 then these are the ones you want.

http://rom.tat.tw/desire/RCMixHD/Extras/1.84.661.1/Rosie/

EDIT:

Just realised what you are asking. If you have already flashed it it will have installed an app to customize it, look through your app draw fo an app you don't recognise..

@Robo

DeSensenized is very very stable restored some apps rebooted got the sim card has changed notifiction but havnt seen an FC yet so well done on this Rom, I do like my sence Rom's but will keep this for a little while, what I dont like is the calander widget its to plain, PPL that dont want sence should be happy with this one if there partitions are done correctly.

Good work Robo:)

ps, do you know of a better calander I can use.
[Desire Android Development] simeoncader:
When it finally gets there, will it be a separate rom, or integrated as an update to this rom? Goodluck with it! This is exciting news! :D

[Desire Android Development] Corwin96:
Thanks a heap man. I tried everything else but this could very well be the problem. I didn't even know I could use different stock partitions for s-off. So it's very likely I messed up there. Its the first time I tried custom roms for android. I did it millions of times on WM so consider me a newbie as far as android is concerned :)

I'm reading up now and I'll try it later today. I'll let you know if it works.

Thanks!

uot kitchen

guys,

Can I just take the rcmixhd 3.0 framework (which is already in the kitchen) to get battery percentage and other style taskbar icons...? Or can I just use my old framework from 3.01... I'm at work right now and cannot download rcmixhd 3.4 to extract the framework...

cheers
[Desire Android Development] Shoarma1998:
thanks for the quick response!

What can I do to make the carrier network weather update to work on 3.4?

I've tried several solutions on 3.01, but they all didn't work... Is there something different on this one, so I can try one of the solutions? Furthermore, which solution is the best?

Looks like the problem only occurs when only 2 partitions are configured. I also have the problem and I also have only 1 FAT and 1 EXT. Will try repartitioning and give a short info. Thanks for info!

It is always best to use the framework from the rom you are running, however if the framework is in the kitchen that goes with your rom then you can use that.

The DeSensenized version works like a charm, much smoother than it was with Sense :)

Is there any way to have recent applications with power control manager in notification bar? I mean is there any way to do it through UI inside the rom, or I have to modify config file in /system?

Hi Robocik,

Nice Rom!!! This is the first rom of all without FC"s*!!!! :) :) :)

I'm testing it now for 24 hours.

First time I didn't wait to let it settle. and many fc. and reboots.

Next time I did let it settle and it restored all apps nicely.

But I can't use SetCPU. Within a view minutes it reboots and keeps rebooting.

I mounted the phone in recovery to find SetCPU. (****overclock****.apk) and deleted it. Then everything is OK accept the speed :(

It's slow and I don't know why :(

Do you have any idea what is wrong? I really don't know.

Anybody success with UOT with v3.4 rom..
[Desire Android Development] BrightSilence:
Had the same issue. In the end I figured it'd be easier to just modify the file myself and that did the trick. At least, that worked on the 3.0 version I'm running at this moment.

Just use apk manager to decompile both frameworks and copy over the files that have changed (don't forget the xml files for the battery mod). It's a bit more complicated than UOT, but it shouldn't be too hard.
