Hi all

I'm suffering a minor but ennoying problem with this Rom N.S.A. Ginger Blackness ( or i'm doing something wrong..), The telephone never go in sleep mode but instead shuts down completely and Power button does not work any longer to wake it up !!!

The only solution I've found so far is Power + Vol- + trackball...and it comes to life again...for a few minutes and shuts off again...

BTW, i'm root, S_off

Aaaaargh !!! finally found the right way...Simply depress trackball !!!! easy no
[Desire Android Development] Aprate:
Noonski am comming back! i thought starburst rom was cool, but its nothing like yours! downloading currently allmost flashing nsa back :) thnx for your great roms! i realy DO love them.

Keep up the good work!

btw i can't flash your gingerblackness rom with clockwork 3.0 the error it gives me is the following:

Installing: /sdcard/N.S.A.GingerBlack.2011-02-03.FF.zip

finding update package...

opening update package....

installing update...

Amend scripting (update-script) is no longer supported.

Amend scripting was deprecated by Google in Android 1.5.

It was necessary to remove it when upgrading to the ClockworkMod 3.0 Gingerbread based recovery.

Please switch to Edify scripting (updater-script and update binary) to create working update zip packages.

Installation aborted.

this is what i get :o i'll try it with amon-ra soon

EDIT: probably clockwork is way different from amon-ra going to try it now
[Desire Android Development] Aprate:
clockworkmod 3.0 is like a virus on your android device.

**** i can't get amon-ra back on my device...unrevoked 3 constantly says: "error: failed to get root. is your firmware to new??"
[Desire Android Development] Noonski:
Yeah you did some cool stuff with some customisation tricks, you went your own way so to say. Never really took a good look at your sUC.

If By Oxygen table you mean Data++ (smallest System and largest Data and very small Cache) yes.

@Aprate I'm still on the trusted CWM 2.07
[Desire Android Development] Noonski:
I see you found that one..

I hope to find some Time Sunday to update some info.

(problem with living triple lives)
[Desire Android Development] vipa:
Noonski, do I understand right that in theory ANY rom can be converted to be simple and barebone and not requiting wipe for updates?

Would you be able to share your step by step way of stripping down the rom and customization process? Is making symlinks the only modification you have to do to make everything possible to reside on sdcard? Do you modify any other configuration files?

Thanks in advance for enlightening...
[Desire Android Development] Aprate:
But am trying to get it to work but still no luck. i just want to flash your rom somehow! xD even when i want to flash back to the cwm wich revoked provide. It still gives the "Your firmware is to new" error.. sigh
[Desire Android Development] Noonski:
I'll look into changing the update script (should be a matter of choose convert and enter)

But need to test and flash and will only be home Sunday.

(maybe I have a little time tomorrow)
[Desire Android Development] Aprate:
nps take ur time ;) in the meanwhile i will find a solution to get rid of the cwm 3.0, hopefully hehe.

Hi all

Which radio you guys recommend for best battery life...

i' m curently using 32.54.00.32U_5.14.05.17.

Thks for clarifications
[Desire Android Development] Aprate:
yay.. finally after like 15 fail flashes and 7 roms i can call myself an amon-ra user again.

N.S.A Here i come! :)

I made it! am a N.S.A user again. but the blackness really is black haha.
[Desire Android Development] awolbriggy:
thanks noonski

I cannot believe I have overlooked this ROM previously - it is pretty ideal - with the good features (like htc mail) and no rubbish... just download your own favourate rubbish to go with it (the way it should be)... love it! :)

2 days now and no problem of any kind...
[Desire Android Development] Noonski:
Okay Bro,

I'll be uploading a new FF version to test, it has an updater-script instead of update-script.

It also has the compressed boot.img and \flashed fine here.

I had a serious hangover this sunday :)

Look for N.S.A.GingerBlack.2011-02-15.FF.zip in this shared folder.

http://www.mediafire.com/file/8vqhs98xcdos119/N.S.A.GingerBlack.2011-02-15.FF.zip

(still amazes me to see 241MB free with Data++ table on a clean install)

Same here for the Radio.

But also no overclocking and only underclocking on screen off really makes a difference.
[Desire Android Development] awolbriggy:
update?

@ Noonski,

is the update only so changed in style of install? ie so you can use cwm 3 etc.

@ aprate

sounds like noonski has fixed it for you, but if not, you could get the program "fastboot commander" which is on xda somewhere (search), which makes it pretty easy to just keep images of a few (two) recoverys and swap them around as needed for any purpose (and hboot table too)... I had changed to cwm 3.0, but when it would not support this install script, I just changed it back to amon 2.0.0....
[Desire Android Development] Noonski:
Yup was for aprate specific cwm 3 issue, even now that he found a way around it, I will need to update to this anyway.
[Desire Android Development] zorglub!:
@Noonski

First, thks for yr reply..

Got some interesting results using CPU tuner ( free on the Market).

With a little bit of tweaking( screen off, underclocking...) , here is what I got : Starting with Bat 100%full, put to sleep ( everything disconnected ..Wifi, 3G, Sat... only phone working ), when I woke the telephone 12 hours later, Bat still a 100%...

hope it helps

I have a problem with yr http://www.mediafire.com/file/8vqhs98xcdos119/N.S.A.GingerBlack.2011-02-15.FF.zip...

never goes to Android boot logo but stays for ever stuck at Alpharev S_Off logo...

Any idea what could be the problem ?
[Desire Android Development] peytral:
Me too kinda. I can get to the boot logo sometimes, but then it freezes there and nothing else happens. I also noticed when I flashed this new FF, it doesn't say the "Writing BOOT:" part?

I did a full wipe, S-Off with the data++ table. I also tried going back to the stock table to see if anything different happens.
[Desire Android Development] Aprate:
hehe sorry noonski:$ but you were slow :rolleyes: hehe <-- lols about the hangover :)

no am just kidding, great work! i realy love the gingerblack one. i'm still on 60% it came off the loader around 9am so its nice :)

thanks again for this great rom!

EDIT: want me to flash back to cwm 3.0 to test the new rom ?
[Desire Android Development] Dangry:
Hmmmm

Liking the rom but I am having a major issue. My phone becomes unresponsive, mainly when browsing or using apps that require internet (tweetdeck, twitter, facebook....) to the point I have to do a battery pull. This is kind of a bummer.

I noticed since I have s-off'd my phone it has been acting up a bit so maybe I should go back to "s-on" (LOL)..... Any ideas?

Thanks for all the work on the rom I really do like it!

it is possible to use trackpad AND power button to wakeup?

[Desire Android Development] blackmail84:
thx for your answer.

i´ve already tried this.does not work!:(
[Desire Android Development] vipa:
I believe you need to use different key map file sitting in \data\local\bravo-keypad.kl (zip attached)

you can alternatively edit the one you have so that it has this line:

key 116 POWER WAKE_DROPPED

This will make you power button to wake the device

@noonski

Could you tell me which partition scheme is best for yr Rom ?

I'm currently S_off ( alpharev1.8 ) with bravo_stock1.8 (250M/40M/147M) partitions .

Which one of those( if applicable..) is the best (data++, N1Table, bravo_stock1.8 ?)

Another quicky : Which kernel (rev...?) is recommanded ?

thks in advance :)
[Desire Android Development] avanray:
Hi guys,it seems I have some trouble downloading some apps. I keep getting download failed?anyone face the same problem?any way to fix it?
[Desire Android Development] Noonski:
It should be in the first posts, and mentioned throughout thread, I used Richard Tripps Kernel and I Personally like Data++ Partition Table, but all should work.

As for the Market let's keep an eye on it over the weekend.

The other time a store update was in the rumour mill there where also a lot of downloads crapping out.

Haven't had one yet. http://www.engadget.com/2011/02/24/android-market-adds-e-books-movies-and-music-soon-to-come/

Might << also be the extra demand for the official Nexus One & S's 2.3.3 updates, wreaking havoc on downloads.

Edit: I see a lot if information that was << in the first posts went missing.

I will do penance for this :)
[Desire Android Development] avanray:
Hi,noonski,I tried oxygen and was able to download frm market.with nsa I still unable to download.something Wrong with nsa market?
[Desire Android Development] ring_GT:
can i use coutts 99 sense kernel w/ this rom?

also is it really important to have a swap partition?
[Desire Android Development] Aprate:
noonski here are some tips for your further updates:

- maby adding HTC_IME back to the rom? i like this keypad way more then the standard gingerbread keyboard because of the fast-ness, bigger keys, and the symbols on the keys.

- the flashlight, this is always handy :), i can upload the apk if you like?

- maby the 4 in 1 power manager(shutdown, restart, boot in recovery etc)

- and one bug i don't know how it comes but after like 5 days having the phone on suddenly it works veeerrryyyy slow can i somehow see what causes this ? so i can report it to you ? :)

i'm still very happy with your rom! nice nice nice
[Desire Android Development] jayk32:
Nice Rom

Hi noonski

thanks for a nice rom, I remember using this rom upon ur first release :) Now its even better cause its got the Gingerbread theme plus I prefer the HTC Dialer & Camera :) Cheers mate looking 4ward 2 next update :)
[Desire Android Development] howdid:
wow this rom is exactly that waht i need !!! awesome big thx ;)
[Desire Android Development] madman_cro:
i think you didnt include desk clock in laest version so it wont boot
[Desire Android Development] Noonski:
Not including Deskclock does not affect booting.
[Desire Android Development] Nyto75:
i think he flashed a new ROM guy ^^
[Desire Android Development] Mystenes:
My fault, works fine after second try.
[Desire Android Development] jayk32:
Just wanted 2 say thanks again. But after I flashed the update I don't have the Dr Droid circle battery. :confused: Could u please upload a separate file, many thanks!! :D
[Desire Android Development] Noonski:
Thing with that theme is that it theme is that it wipes the APN list.

When flashing the UPD file the first time over the FF.zip.

If you want it or another one of Dr Droid's themes at:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=760936

First get APN Backup from the market. You can either do your own Backup or copy over the files in the multimedia Add-On Download provided in the first post of this thread, which contain a massive APN Backup already.

To get used to the idea, make sure you first do a Nandroid in CWM Recovery (ClockWorkMod).

Download and put one of the Themes on the root of the SD Card.

Enter into CWM Recovery an choose to install a zip file from the SD Card. And choose the thememod.zip

Do Not Wipe anything and wait for the Phone to boot up again,

If your device does not reconnect to cellular data, restore the APN backup with APN Backup.

But this is tedious to do, so pretty soon you will be manually adding in the framework.apk into the UPD.zip file yourself, before you flash it with Signature Checking Disabled in CWM. UPD.zip is signed but you break the signature when you add in files using 7-zip to open the UPD.zip.

PS: New 32.48.00.32U_5.11.05.14 Radio is sucking the life out of my battery. I have terrible reception at my work and constant "no signal". Don't worry I always have that but it's costing this radio more juice, constantly looking for a Cell to connect to, then it did with 32.47.00.32U_5.10.05.23.

Going to put back 32.47.00.32U_5.10.05.17_2 back for a few days.
[Desire Android Development] chitaboy:
I tried. It is faild. Need somthing more...
[Desire Android Development] Noonski:
Other then the clockwidget folder that belongs in system\etc\.

I don't know what the HTC WorldClock needs to function correctly :(.

Only thing I can think of is check App Manager and wipe Data and Cache:confused:.

I removed it as for me there's a lot more Stopwatches and alarm clocks with more functionality. Though they don't all look as nice as HTC's clock.
[Desire Android Development] jayk32:
Thanks Noonski 4 the info, it worked like a charm. :D
[Desire Android Development] Noonski:
Thank you, you just helped fill up the FAQ a bit more in post three.;)
[Desire Android Development] BeeGee_Tokyo:
FF flashed, but Desire hangs with HTC logo

Not sure what I am doing wrong, tried to flash this ROM (FF version first), but it hangs on the very first screen. White background with HTC logo on it. Does not go even to the bootanimation.

I wiped everything - still no boot.

Flashed another ROM and it boots.

Tried again to wipe everything, flashed N.S.A FF ROM and again no boot.

2 possible problems:

a) what means

? How do I create this?

b) I have a EXT4 partition, is that compatible with EXT3?

Sorry for the noobie questions. I went thru the whole thread, but couldn't find a solution.

I really love your idea and I started to customize Android ROMs to my need (as I did before with WM on Topaz). But for Android I still have to learn a lot.
[Desire Android Development] Noonski:
Hey off course I know you from WM.

I think this is all hanging on the B) part.

I have to look into adding Ext4.

(ext4 support does recognize Ext3 partitions and unfortunately not the other way around)

I Always use this guide to partitioning mannaully:

http://androidandme.com/2009/08/news/how-to-manually-partition-your-sd-card-for-android-apps2sd/

Added to FAQ
[Desire Android Development] BeeGee_Tokyo:
Yahoooooooo, it was the problem with the EXT4 partition. Booting now! Thanks a lot.
[Desire Android Development] PTKDev:
Is possibile use SetCPU? Or not?
[Desire Android Development] Noonski:
Yes, and/but it also has the Screen off Governer to scale down to 245MHZ with screen off.

Added To FAQ Thanks.

Update: Looks like the Error Line 3 is resolved with some good help in pointing out where to look by dsixda.

I will be uploading new FF and UPD Versions that you don't need of your already setup. These just have the fixed Error Line 3 while flashing.

I'll be making a Public folder with the new Updates and the older updates at:

http://www.mediafire.com/?8e3at49eh07x8

I'll be playing around with Sub501's modified governers and mod's the coming days before posting an update with these, these should hopefully improve battery a bit more. (again I was forced into learning something new:))

I will also be looking into how and if it is possible for the UPD.zip not to delete replaced/custom Boot Screens from \Data\App

EDIT: Consider the not deleting Custom Bootscreen or Custom android_audio.mp3 from /data/local

added to the now uploading 29.UPD

In laymen's terms, if you add your own Bootscreen or Bootsound into /data/local, using the UPD.zip will not overwrite or delete yours :)

And remember stay of the latest battery, it sucks.

Stay with 17_2 or 23

23 if you really need the new Ril update for it.

Some one just downloaded an older version of N.S.A.2010-09-29.UPD.zip that I never posted in this thread.

It was a Tester for a Friend.

Whoever downloaded this from the Public folder, it is not the latest version :p

There's a new one up there now (and the mentioned one is now deleted)

Also updated the first posts with the new Info.
[Desire Android Development] BeeGee_Tokyo:
Small problem with your ROM.

No SIM-Toolkit available. Looks as the service is missing. Cannot use the ROM because I have a dual SIM card and need this. Can you check whats necessary to get SIM-Toolkit running?

Solution:

STK.APK

Will put it into the update file and test.
[Desire Android Development] Noonski:
Off course no problem looking at it, give me 5 minutes.

(I know I removed it, just looking how You can get it installed)

Okay it really needs to be in \system\app

So open your last downloaded UPD.zip in 7-zip

Then put in the attached stk.apk into \system\app\

Close the UPD.zip in 7-Zip

Copy to device and ReFlash without wipe and signature checking.

Reading from your previous posts and knowing your background a little, this should be a breeze for you.

I'm also doing the Steps right now, to check if I have the correct version of STK.apk.

Second STK I found works like a charm as described above. It's attached.

I'll make you a Personal update, for the Mirror Guy, if you can't get it up and running yourself. (I had a Diamond 2 as a testing device at my previous job to test Nav Soft on it)

You'll find that if you add in a stk.apk from a 2.1x Rom that it won't be installed.

But thanks anyway, I thought Sim Tookit was only good to get those SMS's about news and sports from the 1990's. If it's that important to Dual Sims I should include it indeed.

My Personal Bare Minimum needs a slight adjustment ;)
[Desire Android Development] BeeGee_Tokyo:
:eek: didn't expect that I am known here :D hope it is in a good way ;)

Thanks a lot for the stk.apk. Flashed it right now and its working perfect.

Tried it before with a stk from LeeDrOid ROM, but that one didn't work. Different Android build I guess.

Will try to learn more about Android, want to include stuff that is needed for Japan, like Softbank MMS (already done), Japanese keyboard, Softbank APNs. Found most of the stuff, and your ROM is perfect to integrate and test it.

Looking forward to the next update.
[Desire Android Development] Noonski:
Same here, always new stuff to learn.

I'm was playing around with SetCPU and setting it also to PowerSaveMode

(there's already a PowerSave Module incuded)

And using Radio17_2 and I lost 0% overnight on the battery

(Since I should document all changes)

For next versions the Sim Toolkit will go into \data\app\ in UPD.zip

But eventually sim toolkit will only be in the FF.zip version.

This way users that don't need it can un install it.

And users that do need it will have it installed nicely to A2SD/Ext partition.

android_audio.mp3 symlink is doing it's thing so from next version you can add your own bootsound to \data\local\ and future UPD.zip/updates won't touch it.

And i'm now also adding in Ext4 and Jbd2 Modules from Sub501.

But I need someone that already has Ext4 to test this.
[Desire Android Development] BeeGee_Tokyo:
I am used to backup my SDcard already, so give me your EXT4 version and I test it.
[Desire Android Development] Noonski:
It's uploading ATM

Expect a file named N.S.A.2010-09-29.UPD.Ext4.Test.zip

In this public folder:

http://www.mediafire.com/?8e3at49eh07x8

It also has the STK.apk in /data/app

(killing it from your system folder)

And the resync and JBD2 modules from:

http://android.modaco.com/content/htc-desire-desire-modaco-com/317163/mod-custom-mods-for-mcr-r8/

For whoever might need it, I don't know what it's good for :)

It's at least working good with backwards ext3 support as I've flashed two version of these already.
