Just updated to 8.4 from 8.3 because Iw as bored :-p Only did cache and dlavik cache wipe, al lgood, just under 10 mins for first boot.

As for restoring via TB or whatever, if a ROM is the same base version i.e. 2.29.405.5 then it's all good to do restore of system data as well as apps. It's when a ROM is of a diff build that you get issues. Same for when upgrading as in to 8.4, there was no base upgrade so should only need cache wipes if that. Anyway, whatever works for you.
[Desire Android Development] flyingff82:
And again a very good rom, thanks a lot!

But one question, i experience always the same issue with aurax and reflex roms : no matter how long i wait the first boot freezes at the end of the boot animation. Then i have to manually reboot the phone and the second boot then works all fine?

-Partition ext2, 3 or 4 wiped (for APP2SD), recommended 1024MB (or 512mb, with 512 you will have 315mb free)

For a best running of rom should do a Wipe Factory Reset and wipe at ext partition

UOT-Kitchen How-to http://circle.glx.nl/how_to/

WARNING! Flash UOT file after you have first boot.

If you flashed new rom, boot up your phone first time

and after that reboot into recovery to flash UOT file.

And I agree - not always it is necessary or it is possible to restore all system data. But sinse updating from 8.0 - I always restore all in Timanium Backup.
[Desire Android Development] O Sophos:
Ohhh.. I know about both of them. I thought you said the author ROM mentioned about restore all in Titanium Backup. Misunderstanding.
[Desire Android Development] O Sophos:
Want to ask. What if I restored system data from a different base version, and some issues occurred. Then I backup apps and system data from the ROM with issues. Will it be okay if I restore apps and system data to the same base version? Will the issues also be backup-ed and restored?
[Desire Android Development] bouss:
Is there a way to patch in this ROM the call, RSS and browser application of the Sense HD?
[Desire Android Development] Tillus:
Wait a few minutes, then hit some buttons. I experienced the same, so I started to push the restart-combination (like vol down+ trackpad+ power +back, but I'm not completely sure) but before I could finish that, the backlight of the buttons lid up, so I waited another 30 seconds or so and then it was done/booted up.

That worked for me every time. :D
[Desire Android Development] BashyUK:
Why would that be ok? You would be backing up and restoring corrupt data wouldn't you?! Just don't restore system data to different base versions or even worse, sense to aosp and vice versa. Simple.
[Desire Android Development] mastersjef:
I agree with that the best way is with Titanium backup to do a restore of missing apps only simple.
[Desire Android Development] AStartsev:
Yes - Titanium Backup is my recomendation, not author ROM.

Radio version question?

Hi NeoPhyTe, hi all,

just a simple question about radio version.

You mentioned in your thread latest radio version is 32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2.

But actually that's far away from truth as you can see in the thread:

[RADIO] HTC Desire Stock Radios [LATEST 32.54.00.32U_5.14.05.17] [19/01/11]

Now the question:

- Is there a special reason why you still mention this radio version?

- What would happen, if I use a newer Radio? E.g. is there a need to load the RIL as well?

- What is your experience, recomandation about the radio version? As far as I know the radio also influences the batterylifetime and the reception quality.

Best regards

Andy
[Desire Android Development] AStartsev:
I'm always use last Radio - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=687464

Now - 8.4 + 32.54.00.32U_5.14.05.17

batterylifetime - 36-48h (2-3h WiFi + 30min speak + 30min 3G/GPRS + 2h logical games a day)

For statistic i'm using Battery Indicator Pro - it show theoretical/statistical battery lifetime.
[Desire Android Development] FSGuruh:
Thanks for the quick response.

Did you installed the RIL as well or just the radio. Which clockword version did you use to install the radio.

Best regards

Andy
[Desire Android Development] erklat:
So basically, no data traffic except when needed?

The RIL for 5.14 solved my WiFi disconnecting issues, so my guess is that this ROM really is loaded with 5.09 RIL.

I use CWM 2.5.0.7. Don't repair recovery if it ain't broke.
[Desire Android Development] O Sophos:
Yeap, that's how it works here. Won't be too busy. Haha. Saw you in LeeDroid. So are you using AuraxTSense?
[Desire Android Development] erklat:
Yeah, suffered from memory leaks every other day on Leedroid and couldn't find the solution together with a dozen other guys suffering from the same issues, and I can't live with a nuisance of waiting for it to happen, and rebooting every day when the phone has the capabilities to run seamlessly for weeks if you don't run out of battery. It seems that it is triggered randomly though, and coming back to AuraxTSense was only logical solution after we tried all conventional methods of narrowing the culprit down.
[Desire Android Development] O Sophos:
Good to hear that. I've never really tested out on LeeDroid though it was the first ROM ever I flashed. I've also read about memory leaks you mentioned in LeeDroid's thread.

I'm not suffering from memory leaks. But for the last 2 boots, I experienced lag like after one day of usage. I've mentioned about this earlier. My app drawer becomes lag, every app lags, and quadrant score dropped till as low as 400+. I use some task killer app to kill tasks but still lag. Reboot solves the problem however. My last reboot was two days ago. I've been refraining myself from using my phone too much to see if lag will come again. Until now, it's still smooth. But I'd wish to know why or what...
[Desire Android Development] bouss:
Anyone? It's not possible?
[Desire Android Development] beidl:
Never use task killers. They were somewhat useful on the G1 (when using Hero ROMs) but on devices which so much RAM, they are useless and often even cause lags.

@bouss: there's no way to do that, both ROMs use different frameworks which are incompatible to each other.
[Desire Android Development] O Sophos:
I don't use task killers. But since it's causing lag (without even installing any task killer), I installed one and kill all the tasks, and lag persists.
[Desire Android Development] Araba21:
Hello, version 8.4 is fully compatible with Data2SD? The procedure to install is the same as that for 8.3?

thanks
[Desire Android Development] erklat:
So this happens on AuraxTSense? Have you checked the free memory available when this happens? You should be at less than 50mb from my experience, the symptoms are the same.

Yeah, the procedure is script dependant, not rom dependant.
[Desire Android Development] O Sophos:
How do you check the available memory? In case I did it the wrong way...
[Desire Android Development] Chicken Nugget(s):
Is there anyway one can enable continuous focusing in the camcorder?
[Desire Android Development] erklat:
I do it using the Quick system info app.
[Desire Android Development] BigMrB:
For the lag..

I know this may sound obvious but have u checked settings > apps > running services > then disabling ones that don't need to be running all the time? Also simple things like setting a schedule to clear cache every few hours?? It must be an app because 8.4 is smooth!
[Desire Android Development] Caroig:
Original Theme

Hello, I really like this ROM, it's fast and stable. However, I'd prefer a version with the original theme. Mainly because I use Tasker to set GPS/wifi/BT etc. Thus I don't need the Power Controls, they just take up space and sometimes I accidentally toggle something. I tried applying the zip from first post (Original Theme Sense for AuraxTSense 8.3-8.4), but the Power Controls are still there. Also, the progress bar in the browser and the frame around the keyboard in portrait mode are still blue and sometimes the icon in notifications is missing (see screenshot, see here: storage.paloch.net/snap20110211_221126.png). Could we please get the original theme without any mods? Thanks. (I'm running 8.4, but it was the same in 8.3)
[Desire Android Development] AStartsev:
I'm use 2.5.0.7 CW, because all other (2.5.1.2) - erase misc partition on HTC Desire while backup procedure.

As i wrote in prev.posts - its correctible, but not good...

Yeah, the procedure is script dependant, not rom dependant.

Ok, is there anyone who has tried the operation?

There are problems with certain applications?

I'm going to buy a microSD A-DATA CLASS 10 16GB HC.

Has anyone tested?
[Desire Android Development] O Sophos:
Will try it again if it lags. Hope not.
[Desire Android Development] O Sophos:
I only do that when lags come. But doesn't seem to help the problem. I have cachemate clearing cache every 6 hours. Today is my third day and it seems fine still. Probably is Jewel.

Anyone adventurous to try Jewel game? To see if it's the problem? :p

It's hard to believe as it receives many good comments in the market.
[Desire Android Development] angusc:
Quick System Info also has built in task killer which I like much better than the others that I've tried.

I also came from Leedroid to this ROM due to the memory loss and sense restarts........

[Desire Android Development] angusc:
Well I have 16GB class 2 card with 2GB Ext4 partion and it all works great. All apps "appear" to install to the device but actually all go to the Ext4 partion. Initially I was confused by this and kept moving all the apps to "SDCard" not realising that actually I was only moving them from Ext4 to the Fat32 partion which in NOT what you want. After understanding that, I now check any new apps to make sure they don't install themselves to the SDCard and if they have then move them to "Phone Memory" which actually moves them the Ext4...

Hope that makes sense.

I'm using system info widget.about 170MB free RAM now. Drops to as low at 110MB. But I still think it's normal. No sense restart etc etc.

So what's your opinion on auraxsten vs leedroid? I really want to know.
[Desire Android Development] O Sophos:
Saw you commenting in leedroid that auraxtsense's battery life is not as good. Just want to ask if you've flashed the 875mV special? Looking at leedroid's kernel, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=821372, it appears to me that leedroid's kernel uses more battery. It may be due to other factors I don't know.

[Desire Android Development] venkig:
You don't need to do a full wipe. You can however wipe the cache(not necessary). After upgrade if you have issues then you can consider wiping.

Just put the ROM on the SD and then wipe cache, flash it, update radio if required, calibrate battery, wipe battery stats and then you are good to use a stable ROM :)

Using root explorer i can see the apk in system/app and i have tried installing it but it always fails.

Anyone got any ideas?

Should have been over by now. Try rebooting it manually or pop the battery out, should boot right away after that. It happens sometimes, happened to me twice after radio image flash. It could be due to recovery. IIRC there were a couple of ROMs which failed to boot when CWM 2.5.0.7. came out.

That's long. Never faced that problem. Sorry can't help. Unless you also flashed something in the same session you flashed the ROM?

My launcher reboots only when I'm doing heavy tasks like titanium backuping for example. if 875mV special is not so good, you can try 875 without special and see if it's the low volt kernel..

you can edit it any time:

connect via USB in HTC Sync mode

open shell (run - cmd)

adb pull \etc\hosts c:\temp\hosts

edit c:\temp\hosts in any text editor

adb shell chmod 777 \etc\hosts

adb push c:\temp\hosts \etc\hosts

Well I should report back to you on my battery findings, as some of you may recall I had said that the battery life in this ROM was worse than I had experienced with Leedroid 2.3d. I was advised to try the Special undervolt kernel and did so. Today might be considered a more "normal" day for a phone as I took it off an all night charge at about 08:30 and went out for the day with the wife (Valentines day ;-) ). So done around 2 hours WiFi web browsing, one 5 minute call. Now at 21:20 I have 52% remaining according to circular battery indicator. So I'm happy with that and think it is comparable to Leedroid.

Oh and since running AuraxTSense I have not had any Sense reboots over the last 4 days. Seem to be continuosly around 166 + 70 according to the application/running processes menu.
