good rom but again why dont i have the option to move apps to sd and why does the notification settings keeps force closing i think its not stable yet well i really had alot of hope for villain roms i hope it could all get sorted out
[Desire Android Development] kaldean:
sorry for the question this apparently does it automatically :P

but some settiengs are off thou
[Desire Android Development] unitas_e:
1. as mentioned before, d//l the icons from the villainrom site and EXTRACT into any folder in the SD card.

2. on you phone, click on a blank space to pop up the "add to home screen"

3. select [ custom shortcuts]

4. then select [pick your activity] you want

5. click on the image to chance the icon and browse to your icons folder in the sd to choose the icon of your choosing

6. once the new icon is on you homescreen, long select and drag to the dockbar

hope this helps.

thanks team villain for this amazing rom!
[Desire Android Development] raze1000:
To get these on the dock bar If you are using launcher pro you can just long press the icon on the dockbar and then select change icon, then browse to the folder you unzipped the icons to.

Love these icons by the way, but is there any way we could make them into an icon pack for use in folder organiser etc like the tenuis icon pack?
[Desire Android Development] unitas_e:
thanks for the tip! havent had a chance to play with launcher pro yet.

[Desire Android Development] raze1000:
Decided to go back to supervillain1 tonight.

Been using the HD beta since release and love the new sense.

I have noticed that even with faster quadrant scores it still seems a little sluggish compared to the standard sense and none sense roms.

Also video playback seemed a bit laggy.

I made an mp4 file of the mrs who was on question time and saved it to sd.

Ran very very smooth on supervillain1 but very laggy on the hd version.

Unable to set wallpaper using HTC wallpaper app. Using launcherpro, from homescreen, menu, wallpapers, HTC wallpaper.

Preview is black and when I hit apply I get error phone storage is full. SD card has a few gigs and phone storage has 113 mb free. Sorry if this is a doublepost.

Besides that I haven't seen any other bugs, great Rom :)
[Desire Android Development] raze1000:
Have you removed or added anything from the Rom before you flashed?

I had this error when i did that, not sure which item it was that caused it though.

If you didn't then may be best to download the rom again and try that.
[Desire Android Development] Properbbq:
Should also note that I am able to set wallpaper using Flikie, so I think it's just the HTC Wallpaper app that might be bugged.

Could we get all of the Laputa apks and libs as a flashable zip? I tried adding the stuff on my own, the program starts but then it crashes and i can't make heads or tails of the logcat..btw the Laputa stuff is the HTC Navigator and not the ebook reader as many people claim in various threads :p. Thanks :D
[Desire Android Development] Lennyuk:
Yep we don't give away dates or estimates or even say "its a day away" we will let you know once the new version is uploaded and that is it.

Problems are always caused when people say a new version is coming as if something goes wrong and we can't get it out some people complain.
[Desire Android Development] ThePanama:
Lenny you are always going to get those who complain no matter how much hard work and effort you have put in, despite that they are getting it for free.

Personally I would like to thank all those involved with this ROM, I have tried a few but this is my daily use ROM, so a big thank you.

Other than the ball ache which is the camera can you give any clues (no timescales :p as to what you have planned for or are working on for this ROM, just to whet our appetites?

flashed this today but unfortunatly chompSMS and Sygic Mobile Maps won't work with this rom. it gives errors on every sms i tried to send though it did send them, just showed me that it did not. kinda annoying. and sygic fc'd always. went back to SuperVillain 1.0 now though i'm using it with ADW Launcher and not with LauncherPro.

anyways, keep up the good work!
[Desire Android Development] seymour_butts:
hey guys.

where can i find the wallpaper that is used on the screenshot??

thanks
[Desire Android Development] CaspaTheGhost:
Great ROM, been using RCmix for a while but fancied a change and this sounded spot on... I am definitely on the same wavelength and philosophy as you and it works and treat...

Looking forward to the battery mod as that's all that's missing in my setup.

Thanks for the ROM and the great read!
[Desire Android Development] JPeltonen:
For anyone who might wonder whether to try this ROM or not, i say go for it! It's fast, extremely stable (the most important thing to me) and a lot of fun to use.

Now, I completely understand the fact the you -- the developers -- don't want to give any dates (about possible future updates), but I'm afraid it could also mean that this fabulous ROM might not be able to attract all those possible candidates looking for a SenseHD based ROM because of the lack of updates and stuff. By this is mean that if someone is checking up this thread, they might think that this ROM is no longer been updated because it's so quiet here.

I hope you understand what I mean, because I really like it, and I want to see it getting even better :)
[Desire Android Development] Moe5508:
Hmmm, ROM doesn't appear to play nicely with Custom MTD partitions. I'm running LeeDroid v2.2d with 235/5/188 (System/Cache/Data) partitions and I can't flash this ROM...

Increase Cache? Or what are the recommended partitions to run this ROM on?
[Desire Android Development] Noonski:
Good one indeed.

I have not gone the way of the S-Off. But this does indeed bring a new factor to the information for custom needed for Rom's.
[Desire Android Development] MStott:
This IS better than sex with Cheryl Cole!
[Desire Android Development] stavec:
What about benchmark? Has it increased? or still, how on froyo?
[Desire Android Development] Ninsassin:
Great rom! I was wondering is it safe to use the theme kitchen for the notification bar because the recently used apps bar thing is there now...Dunno how the theme would interact with it so I'm not sure is it safe
[Desire Android Development] alex86142:
I'm having a problem. I wanted to use a new 16gb SDCard. But when I inserted it, the Desire stucks at the VillainRom Bootscreen. It is weird cause the screen turns off then and when you press a button the light goes on again. But only the "matrix" screen is shown. What am I doing wrong?

After 15 days of waiting and nothing heard of you guys I have to ask you...will there be a new release some day???
[Desire Android Development] Dragooon123:
How would the battery life of this ROM be when compared to AOSP ROMs like OD and DF?

And superb work guys! Hopefully you'll also make one with Rosie :).
[Desire Android Development] Superchasin:
Thank you thank you! :D Hope the cam will be fixed soon!

Gonna DL and FLASH!
[Desire Android Development] Lennyuk:
Too soon to tell, but the HD port as a base has good battery life.
[Desire Android Development] rover.prince:
I have not tested us yet but as per general opinion I think life will be great as most of crap (htc) has been removed. Only usable stuff is being kept in it.
[Desire Android Development] Moe5508:
Thanks for delivering on your promise to deliver the HD ROM guys - awesome work!!!
[Desire Android Development] xangma:
Hey =]

Yeah, I'll stop tearing people apart for being too lazy to read. Maybe =P
[Desire Android Development] pulser_g2:
Glad to see we've got such a good response to this :)
[Desire Android Development] ekowanz:
ill try this ROM... lets see what they got
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
I'm wondering what meaning such a tailored ROM could have: stripping Sense 2.0 from a Sense 2.0 ROM is not like stripping Sense from a Sense ROM: the 99% of the juicy news in Desire HD' implementations are in Sense itself!

So what's remaining on the table?

Just my two cents.
[Desire Android Development] Lennyuk:
no all you "miss" from sense v2 is the themable launcher and widgets. All other "new sense" features remain.
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
I trust you, although I'm not very confident about that. So, flashing now. :D
[Desire Android Development] rover.prince:
Lenny doesn't it mean we shall be missing the real flip clock, friendstream, HTC mail and messaging widget as well. Or I'm assuming wrong
[Desire Android Development] nitsuajd:
Thanks for work, this roms looks amazing! can wait for try it but i've a question...

which is the best radio for this rom?
[Desire Android Development] Lennyuk:
Yes just like any rom that doesn't use rosie launcher, you won't have any HTC Widgets, the apps still work themselves though, so you can use "friendsteam" app but not widget etc etc.
[Desire Android Development] Lennyuk:
any of the newer radios
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
As expected, once booted up there's really little difference if compared to SuperVillain or any other Rosie-stripped ROM out there. Also, the need for space made many victims in the apps domain, rendering this a super-vanilla ROM.

I appreciate the work, but this is not for me: going back to ol'days AOSP. ;)
[Desire Android Development] Lennyuk:
well thats your decision, but I am happy to be on a faster sense base, and have use of sense apps (contacts, dialer, torch, wifi tether etc) without being stuck with rosie.

On other notes

Benchmarks:

Quadrant - 1430

Linpack - 35

Neocore 28.7
[Desire Android Development] -Yaya-:
"- Vanilla Lockscreen and Clock (use Vanilla clock for working alarm)

- Gallery 3D replaces HTC album (for size)"

This is why I stay away from this Rom...

Is there a way to include these both options in an additional package please? :D
[Desire Android Development] Lennyuk:
HTC clock is included, you just can't use HTC alarm you have to use vanilla alarm as the HTC Lockscreen has been removed.

adding HTC albums might be possible.
[Desire Android Development] mdmar:
Very nice but disappointed on the lack of camera:(

A smartphone without a camera is pretty useless imho...

Enjoying the SuperVillain instead;)
[Desire Android Development] hamdir:
ok the only thing better than a sense launcher is launcher pro, so this rom's concept is gold

too bad i can't live without a camera
[Desire Android Development] joe_998:
This is by far the best ROM I've used so far but have to reluctantly switch to something with a working camera for my holiday.

I'll be switching back to this when I get back, hoping there'll be a fix for the camera while I'm away :)
[Desire Android Development] dunny_:
Market doesnt work for me. Which is a shame.
[Desire Android Development] CaspaTheGhost:
Market issues are Google based, nowt to do with the ROM... Loads of markety issues at the moment!
[Desire Android Development] lick_the_fish:
Been trying a few froyo roms and decided its time to try this HD rom malarkey. Camera no biggie right now I have an SLR for that ;-)

Will let you know my thoughts
[Desire Android Development] lick_the_fish:
I like this a lot.

I definitely like the fact I can have the Sense "People" app as its a lot better than the stock Android.

I have installed LauncherPro as I have the paid version. I can't create a HTC Sense account, but I assume this is because its not actually a Desire HD?
[Desire Android Development] ThePanama:
Google seem to be "playing" with the sense website a lot at the moment so sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. I managed to register without any issues.
[Desire Android Development] K900:
Wait, google? Did you mean HTC?

[Desire Android Development] PinkySlayer:
Is it just me, or does the e-mail icon fail to update the number of unread messages? I have 3 exchange accounts configured: 2 connected to an Exchange 2010 server and 1 connected to a Google Apps account. The unread counts are updated when the icon/shortcut is first added but doesn't update at all.

Is this a known issue?

Cheers.
[Desire Android Development] Svashtar:
This, at least for me, actually never worked, on any of the roms. If i remember correctly, even on the stock rom...

Sucks i know :)
[Desire Android Development] PinkySlayer:
Which part didn't work?
[Desire Android Development] Sulphy:
Installed this ROM, after messing about with a MIUI ROM.. And it is awesomeness!!!!!

Am very impressed! Nice Job.......... Looking forward to the next release!!

Curious, When i check the Software version in About Phone, it shows as SuperVillianHD_0.1.1 - is that correct?? As I downloaded SuperHD2-R2-Signed.zip... thought it would give a version number of 0.2

Any feedback on this would be great.... cheers :)
[Desire Android Development] Svashtar:
Number of unread email indication on the icon itself....

It works once when created...than never again.
[Desire Android Development] websinister:
the devs just missed updating the buid.prop but no worries as you have the latest ROM from the Villain Team..:)
[Desire Android Development] RetardedMunkey:
Great work!!

Nicely done boys, I've played around with MIUI ROM's as well and while it looks good [if you don't touch it] I had FAAAAAR too many FC's all the time, however I've been using your ROM since this morning and it's not only stable but looks frikkin awesome! And as for the camera? Well the only time I ever use that is when I've had far to much to drink anyway and the pictures are all blurry so no camera thing doesn't bother me at all. After all I'm not one of these bloggers that have to blog everything "This is what I had for breakfast, this is what I had for lunch - And this is what I threw up" Once again, good job boys.

And if the next release is better then this one then I'll gladly donate enough to get you boys a few slabs.

Cheers,

This ROM is awesome! Its much faster than any other HD rom. Everything works like a charm. This rom runs perfectly on richardtrips kernel. Keep up with the good work!
[Desire Android Development] c0ldy:
Why is the bootanimation.zip in /system/customize/resource?

And why is it write protected?

Is this the new folder structure for HD roms?
[Desire Android Development] websinister:
it is the default location AFAIK. since the introduction of S-OFF HBOOT, moving of these types of files (hosts,apn.xml) were not needed anymore as we now have r/w on the /system partition.
[Desire Android Development] Flashmaniac:
men I didn't try your rom yet. because I am on the normal HD Rom.

But I wanna try it tommorow because my time is limited right now.

Anyway when I started reading the story in your first post, I couldn't stop laughing :D

good story :)

and the cover image looks really nice.

And so the redundant asking for updates begins.

Oh wait no it don't, I'm halting it (hopefully) before more flock with the same questions.

BTW Camera is not completely solved yet as far as I read two hours ago.

Cam works but video not yet.

[Desire Android Development] DesirableHTC:
so if i take cam.apk from RCmix HD 0.12 add it to system/app then flash the cam fix from snq- it will work?

Thanks

just noticed that there is no cam.apk in RCmix HD.... so do you mean just apply the fix to this ROM?

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] K900:
Yeah, just flash it.

I can use the barcodescanner, but no cam? I installed the patch using rom mananger, and flashed it from recovery?!:confused:

Could you try wiping Dalvik cache and see how it goes ?

@Moe5508: can you please confirm if the camera is working fine on this ROM and if you can use it through the barcode scanner program or such program?

I tried putting camera.apk from RCmix HD and flashed the camfix from RCmix thread resulting in bootloop anyone have a fix ?

Go to Villains forum and find the new cam.apk upladed by snq, I did and it works, but now I have no contact with my SIM card ?!?
[Desire Android Development] neitin:
Cam fix

Many thanks mate, will give it go :)

Edit: Does not work mate it gives me bootloop is it working for you, I wiped everything before flashing.

[Desire Android Development] Bengaal:
In this ROM, is there the notification bar from the new sensehd? I mean the apps bar in the notification area......

because Rosie is stripped off.... I wondered if that feature is in here...

So if anybody can clear this up before I try

thanx
[Desire Android Development] daffie:
CameraZoomFX ???
[Desire Android Development] daffie:
Unfortunately it isn't in this rom...I would really like to see it though.
[Desire Android Development] Moe5508:
Yep, confirmed. I took a couple of pics. Then I also used some 3rd party camera apps like Camera 360, Quickmark etc...worked just perfectly for me. I'm however back with RXMixHD v0.13 which has just been released now so I can't test this any more...I flashed the patch using AmonRA Recovery, just FYI...No need to wipe anything, just a straight flash and that was it!
[Desire Android Development] basthet:
If you would have used the search function you should have found the working patch for this rom ;-)

Did the same mistake, too... lol

This patch is working, just flash and delete dalvik.

If already applied the wrong patch, just push the HTCCamera.apk over to /system/app/

That's it - however was a good day to try out camera 360 - cool effects ;)
[Desire Android Development] basthet:
It is within the rom - at least I can use it. No clue what you have installed.
[Desire Android Development] basthet:
BTW - just flashed that Kernel (V5F_HAVS@875mV) and got 1769

[Desire Android Development] daffie:
Oops excuse me, I though the original poster meant the notification bar with power options...which I saw earlier in Defrost.
[Desire Android Development] daffie:
I flashed this zip using AmonRa recovery and did wipe of dalvik cach after that. After restart I can see camcorde and camera, however I now see a grey battery icon and no connection with provider is possible. Does this anyway sound familiair? Any solution maybe..thanks.
[Desire Android Development] wieben:
Nope, same issue here..:confused:
[Desire Android Development] basthet:
nope - working here, perfectly. Have to admit I did the zip install after some taskbar modding - so: coming form original rom might end up in trouble.

What you should be able to do:

1) First get the camara working: Hence use any original sqn patch (e.g. the first one to be found in the RCmixHD thread) and try any 3rd party app (e.g. camera 360) - if this is working - all is fine.

2) After that isntall the HTCCamera. Puch my priviously attached HTCCamera.apk into the /app/system folder.

I had no problem with the attached version coming from the original villainromHD 02 rom.

BUT: never forget to make a backup ;)

BTW: dspmanager is a great tool, too ;)

PS: I will remove the mentioned zip file, but leave the HTCCamera.apk as people have issues here.

Sorry, if this induces any trouble.

BTW: here you find the correct patch from snq:
