Well, there is likely another issue then. As I said, it's an experimental ROM. The markets download folder has been changed from /cache, but it has been moved to /sdcard not to /data/local/tmp.
[Desire Android Development] :
Adam is pushing a fix for this now, he forgot to commit his fix to move market downloads to /sdcard
[Desire Android Development] mark_v:
If everybody had a spare phone that would not be used for normal consumer use i would agree. The chmod on a temp did is a great quickfix for now.

My theme has been updated for RC4 --> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=9917167#post9917167
[Desire Android Development] belylal:
Cool, so we could expect a fixed RC4 soon?

Real smoothe this one, RC4 feels much faster and smother than all the previous RC's...
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
Just reuploaded Oxygen 2.0-RC4, fixed the slight market problem, sorry guys.

Been stricken with the flu virus for the past 3 days, completely forgot to push the update :(
[Desire Android Development] mark_v:
New rc4 is live! Adam you rock.
[Desire Android Development] najar360:
i found that rc4 is more laggy than rc3. i just did upgrade and wipe on dalvik cache

do i need to clean wipe?
[Desire Android Development] MacCarron:
Edit: Fix'd
[Desire Android Development] flakz0r:
Get better soon, and thank you for this awesome rom once again. Oxygen is the best Desire rom out there, by a long shot :)
[Desire Android Development] :
As he said, redownload RC4 and revert the permissions change on /data/local/tmp if you made it. :p
[Desire Android Development] belylal:
Hope you get better real quick...

Thanks a bunch for your hard work, great ROM...
[Desire Android Development] :
Um, your md5 is wrong, the one I have in a folder on my desktop is:

78ce141c59d27d94995128c1c6df746b, which matches what is on alpharev.nl

If it doesn't match, don't flash, otherwise you will have a brick.
[Desire Android Development] ieftm:
[ief@beta ~]$ md5sum /srv/alpharev.nl/bravo_alphaspl-oxygen.img

78ce141c59d27d94995128c1c6df746b /srv/alpharev.nl/bravo_alphaspl-oxygen.img

so yeah. This is the correct md5sum.
[Desire Android Development] MacCarron:
Chrome somehow messed up the download..i gotta remember not to use the Dev's version to download "serious stuff" :p. MD5SUM checks out downloading with Firefox. I'm editing my previous post to avoid misleading people.

[Desire Android Development] jonuwz:
I always full wipe before flashing a rom and I also experienced this

Logcat clearly states that whatever user is doing the writing to /data/local/tmp does not have permission to do so.

W/DownloadManager( 359): Aborting request for download 32: while opening destina

tion file: java.io.FileNotFoundException: /data/local/tmp/downloadfile.apk (Permission denied)

.

.

.

Action(): Couldn't find pathname for completed download URI: content://downloads/

my_downloads/32 -- assuming the download failed.

adb shell chmod a+rw /data/local/tmp resolves the issue.

If as you say your market works with RC4 and 771 perms then the user doing the downloading is not in the shell group for those of us where the market fails.

Hi There,

I have updated the theme to RC4.

U can see it here...

or

It's available in Oxygen Updater

(Thanks Adam G, We Love U)

Regards,

[Desire Android Development] :
Try reading back a couple of pages before posting superfluous comments.

Adam forgot to push the fix because he's not well, he has now. Redownload RC4 and re-flash it.

My market works because I'm running a later build, which had the fix correctly applied.
[Desire Android Development] Superchasin:
Everytime I got problems with flashing this ROM... HTC white screen all the time. I have to flash it 3-4 times before work. Now RC4 also not working, what am I doing wrong? :O

thanks
[Desire Android Development] hib1000:
It has to be said, that when the temporary folder permission fix was posted YOU suggested a full wipe would resolve it before Adam reposted!
[Desire Android Development] sakai4eva:
Titanium Backup can do that I think. In the batch menu, look for one that moves everything to internal memory ;)
[Desire Android Development] :
Why does that have to be said? A full wipe is one of the first things you should do when encountering problems, so obviously I would suggest it.

Do a backup first, then if it isn't that, you can restore. This is an experimental ROM.

The permissions 'fix' was not a fix, it was an ugly hack, that didn't resolve the real issue, which is the path was wrong in the code.
[Desire Android Development] Superchasin:
3rd time still not working... :( wtf is my problem?
[Desire Android Development] LuffyPSP:
cool thanks! will try it. first off, flashing HBOOT!
[Desire Android Development] :
Ok, someone else had this issue....

Can you hook the phone up to the computer, boot into recovery, flash the ROM, then after it has finished flashing and before you reboot open a command / terminal window and type:

adb shell dmesg > dmesg.txt

then copy and paste the text to http://pastebin.com and post the url so I can take a look.

If you don't know how to use adb, there are plenty of tutorials on XDA.
[Desire Android Development] r5ingh:
Thanks for the release Adam!

However, I went from RC3 -> Bad RC4 (Booted fine) -> New RC4 and stuck in bootloop! Bah! Any Idea's anyone? I don't really want to full wipe as I haven't backup up txt's/calls....

:(
[Desire Android Development] :
No, that won't work. Apps2sd symlinks /data/app to /sd-ext/app so when the apps are in 'Internal memory' they are actually on the SD card. Sounds daft but it's a fact.
[Desire Android Development] robbiekhan:
For the first time since getting my first Android phone I am able to ditch Apps2SD and this makes me wet myself a little (maybe) :p
[Desire Android Development] :
Do a battery pull and see if it bootloops again.

If it does, paste a logcat of the boot and a couple of bootloops to http://pastebin.com and post the url back here and I will take a look.
[Desire Android Development] Pajorve:
Thanx Adam G...great Job

Your job is a very great...

only flash RC 4 ready ... everything running perfectly!

Thanx!
[Desire Android Development] DanijelDesire:
Everything works great here with rc4. Thanks.

When will the Nexus update come? Can't wait!
[Desire Android Development] r5ingh:
Yea, already tried a battery pull, reflash with a wipe of dalvik - no luck.. then repeated the procedure with a fresh download of the rom.. still no luck. Am in the middle of reverting back to RC3, If it fails i'll put up some logs!
[Desire Android Development] hib1000:
You said that instead of changing folder permissions that a full wipe should be carried out instead. The previous poster who you commented was making superfluous comments obviously followed your instructions...

I'm not saying the permissions hack was correct, I'm just commenting that some poor sod followed your lead, posted that he still had the issue, and the YOU shot him down as if he was a idiot
[Desire Android Development] bradputt:
flash other kernel before you reboot. try vork non havs kernel.
[Desire Android Development] kfjunky:
Additional Question

My apologies for jumping in.

If the SD Ext becomes full, will apps be saved in the internal memory?

Thank-you in advance.
[Desire Android Development] kerniger:
Since a few days german Google voice search (Sprachsuche) isnt working any more. Cant even reinstall it from market (Download stopps immediately). Any ideas?
[Desire Android Development] delicious docsy:
I haven't formatted my sdcard since using opendesire back in the day! (lol) was just wondering if I even need the ext partition anymore (using n1 table ATM, going to flash oxygen hboot later)

Sent from my moonbase on the moon.
[Desire Android Development] mark_v:
First of it is not experimental (nightlies are :) . Its a rc. That said. He is completely right. The difference between wipe and non wipe was +10Mb of phone storage.

The 777 chmod was a quick fix.

-Backup using nandroid = revert any time you want.

-Backup using titanium = apps and 90% of settings restored.
[Desire Android Development] kaileena:
I have ext2 partition on my sd card but all the apps are installing in the internal memory in the fixed rc4. In rc2 or rc3 the apps ware installed in my ext partition. Do I need to enable app2sd or something? Sorry if its a dumb question. By the way, I didnt install oxygen hboot. :confused:
[Desire Android Development] :
He said he carried out a full wipe anyway. So I don't think he did follow my instructions.

My point was, it had already been posted 2 pages before what was causing the issue and that a fix was on the way.

People really need to read the thread more.
[Desire Android Development] :
No, is the simple answer to that. :)
[Desire Android Development] darrenkh:
*yawn*
[Desire Android Development] belylal:
Fixed RC4

Fixed RC4 is great. Flashed after a full wipe (wiped the sweat off my forehead even, just to be on the safe side so far as wiping is concerned)...

Everything is working, S-ON, 98Mb left internal mem...
[Desire Android Development] mark_v:
-2.3 can store apps on sd by default if the app builder writes his code wright. Apps2sd can move more apps but its more difficult because it is (or feels to me) less integrated.

I don't know if and how the old apps2sd is integrated in oxigen but you can find that in the start post i think.
[Desire Android Development] :
I would have thought you could get rid of the sd-ext with the Oxygen HBOOT, unless you have 200 apps installed. :)
[Desire Android Development] hib1000:
Whatever dude, I know you're a big contributer to this forum, and a big help to lots of people, I just thought your tone was off is all

I'm sure I misread, and laddo deserved the short shrift he was given...
[Desire Android Development] kfjunky:
Thank-you!

With the additional internal memory space acquired from the Oxygen table, I was considering to delete the sd-ext partition.

Just wanted to make sure.

Best wishes!
[Desire Android Development] :
It is still experimental, the GB code has been out for 9 days. There are still some quirks to be worked out and there have been some changes between the versions.

Titanium backup is a must tbh.
[Desire Android Development] :
Maybe it was a little harsh. ;)
[Desire Android Development] najar360:
i keep getting FC adw launcer on rc4. is there anything i can do to prevent this?
[Desire Android Development] julian.kueh:
A2sd is built into oxygen roms. And make sure ur memory card is partitioned. I have a 1gb ext3 partition on mine and with 50+apps I still have 800mb left.
[Desire Android Development] Whoosh13:
Okay i downloaded rc3 of this rom yesterday because it looks amazing.However it will not install at all :(. I am currently running Darky's ROM v7.0 on my Samsung Galaxy S i9000 and it has integrated clockworkmod recovery so I copied over the ROM onto the internal SD and rebooted to CWM. I used the "wipe data/factory reset" option. Then i used the wipe cache option. After this i went to advanced and used wipe dalvik cache. Then i used installed from zip card and started installing the rom. After about 10 seconds it aborts the installation. Ive tried this multiple times but no success :(. Someone please please help because this ROM looks amazing! !!
[Desire Android Development] :
There haven't been any changes to the 10apps2sd script, except to stop dalvik from being put on the sdcard, which shouldn't affect the app and app-private directories being moved.

Can you paste a logcat, in particular the first 50 lines of the boot to http://pastebin.com please and post the url on this thread so I can take a look.
[Desire Android Development] kaldean:
i think it still supports sd ext but you probably lost the space because of the delvik cache which is now stored on the internal memory thats my assumption
[Desire Android Development] :
Clear the data for ADW? Uninstall and reinstall it? I presume you have tried both of those?
[Desire Android Development] r5ingh:
You my good man are in the wrong forum... This rom is for the HTC DESIRE...

IT WILL NOT WORK ON THE GALAXY S!!!!

:)
[Desire Android Development] LuffyPSP:
for the first time i have to wait ' Waiting for devices' while on fastboot mode. any clue?
[Desire Android Development] hib1000:
lol, good grief!
[Desire Android Development] Whoosh13:
Crap im so sorry. Is there anothrr ROM that is completely gingerbrrad based for the galaxy s i will be searching but if someone has some idea that will be great :)
[Desire Android Development] kaldean:
so basically dalvik will consume internal memory right so i should have less memory left
[Desire Android Development] r5ingh:
Bah, I can't even get ADB to detect the device.. it's still boot looping, I've tried lots of combinations (even flashing HAVS kernel), methinks a full wipe is imminent... :(
[Desire Android Development] :
Oh dear oh dear oh dear.

I don't think it will work very well on your Galaxy S. Perhaps you should try the hacked Nexus S ROM that is kicking about.
[Desire Android Development] najar360:
nope.just upgrade from rc3, only perform wipe dalvik cache.
[Desire Android Development] najar360:
did your fasboot screen show fastboot usb?if no, try to unplug or check your driver
[Desire Android Development] :
Yeah, it will use 50-70Mb on the /data partition more if you have a lot of apps.
[Desire Android Development] r5ingh:
Try checking the galaxy s forum buddy... AFAIK, (as I have a Galaxy S too) CM 7/ SuperCurio's port will be the first Gingerbread rom for the galaxy s... There are no GB roms yet!

All the best!
[Desire Android Development] :
Have you cleared dalvik and cache?
[Desire Android Development] r5ingh:
Yea, cleared dalvik/batt stats... flashed many times.. can't even revert to rc3...

:(
[Desire Android Development] kaldean:
thanks for the fast response i flashed the new RC and suddenly dropped to 65 mb of internal storage i thought something was wrong but i did presume it was the dalvik, time to s-off i guess
[Desire Android Development] LuffyPSP:
yeah it did. and i can do adb just fine.
[Desire Android Development] kaileena:
Yeah.....that seems to be the case......sorry for any trouble......
[Desire Android Development] BumAround:
At least he didn't try to install Oxygen on a Nokia. :eek:
[Desire Android Development] LuffyPSP:
can anyone provide a link for the driver? suddenly i troubleshoot it and it has problem.
[Desire Android Development] gippy2:
My internal storage has gone from 93 to 43. I suppose I will have to s-off now.
[Desire Android Development] :
You just install HTC Sync as far as I know, that contains the necessary drivers.
[Desire Android Development] r5ingh:
Interesting development... I took out memory card and I can boot up fine!

am using ext3... any ideas?
[Desire Android Development] :
Without seeing a logcat of the failing boot, I wouldn't like to guess really.

Edit: Try and get your adb working so you can get a logcat. Even if you can't fix it, I would still like to see what was causing it, just in case it happens to someone else.

I won't have time to look at it tonight though, it's bedtime now, but there might be someone else who will take a look for you, or if not, PM me with it.
[Desire Android Development] najar360:
done a full wipe and everything back in order. i think this rom does not give permission to user to upgrade or my method is wrong..
[Desire Android Development] LuffyPSP:
I guess i'll try that. I didnt install htc sync ever since i start rooting my phone. I just take the driver.

Sent using colourful smoke signals :-)
[Desire Android Development] :
I suspect it's more likely to be ADW that was causing the issue. ;)
[Desire Android Development] najar360:
try to restart your pc first. maybe there's conflict on usb driver. it's help me a lot.
[Desire Android Development] Opalid:
Hi everyone,

Can you please help me out a little. I'm not sure about upgrading to RC4 right now. I'm not going to do that HBOOT flash any time soon, don't feel like wiping my phone AGAIN, been doing that a lot in the past few weeks and I'm growing tired of always doing backups, restoring everything and then something is always missing...

Basically, this new update will move the dalvik cache from the SD card where it is now to the internam memory of the device, is this correct? The device performs much faster with this set up, I guess..?

Thing is right now I'm not worried about speed, I'm satisfied and since I'm not doing that HBOOT thing any time soon (I'm a bit of a noob and it really scares me, to be honest) so... Do I really gain anything from this update? I think I'll sit this one out and maybe I'll update to RC5 directly or something.

What say you? :)

Thanks!
[Desire Android Development] warden:
Just a quicky, put the Oxygen Hboot on, wiped and installed RC4. How do I check that the new HBOOT is ok. Mainly how do I list the /partition sizes. Looking at Quick System Info, A2SD looks right, Internal Storage looks right, System Storage looks right, but System cache is at 13.85 gig. Shouldn't that be 90M. It is a 16 GB SD and 13.85 is what's left.
[Desire Android Development] CM Wave:
Hey, i'm still running OpenDesire 4.0.34 and want to upgrade to Oxygen, but it seems there's been a few developments since the last time i've updated so i was wondering if anyone could help me out.

1. Do I need S-OFF to install the Oxygen HBOOT?

2. Can I install the HBOOT with unrEVOked?

3. Best way to back up my apps and other things (game saves, etc)?
[Desire Android Development] abc001:
Is there a chance to restore the pop up of status bar like that in V1.0x? It is more friendly than the power widget, I think.
[Desire Android Development] najar360:
1. yes. refer to tutotial. or alpharev.nl

2. nope. using fastboot from sdk tools

3. titanium backup / my backup pro
[Desire Android Development] Izeltokatl:
I assume nobody got this working on CDMA version phone? I'm looking for a good lean, fast US Cellular - CDMA version.
[Desire Android Development] sakai4eva:
Interesting... So the only way to disable EXT is to reformat the SD-card?

Would adb work? re-install directly into /data ?

Are you using Clockwork 2.5.0.7? I suggest you wipe /boot also. Just to be safe, wipe everything!
[Desire Android Development] Bhups:
Hi all,

I dont understand which order I am supposed to use the HBOOT from AlphaRev.

Do I :

1. do a complete wipe

2. install the RC4 rom

3. back it up with Nand

4. apply the bravo_alphaspl-n1table.img

5. wipe everything

6. restore the backup

Also, if its been done once, do I need to keep uploading the bravo_alphaspl-n1table.img after installing each RC?

Thanks.
[Desire Android Development] Zenx:
Ok, just flash the new Hboot using fastboot then follow by a full wipe. After that, just flash RC4. The Hboot will be permanent, you don't need to flash again in future unless you are using sense rom.
[Desire Android Development] mikeandjaimie:
I was wondering if it would be possible to include the Gesture unlock from Cyanogen? I love this feature sooo much and make the minimalistic look sooo nice
[Desire Android Development] linkjack:
Its already on here. Go to setting, location and security, and set screen lock pattern :)

Quick question, benefits of using the new HBOOT? I have no idea whether to do it or not,or even what it does? Ive read through the forum and still dont understand it. Sorry for once I need a nooby answer :) Also seems to be a lot of troubles doing it?

A flashable zip has been posted a couple of times in this thread. Try searching this topic.
[Desire Android Development] mikeandjaimie:
Im not sure either, the zip I have been using doesnt seem to work with RC4.. I flashed it this time and it got rid of my market completely and told me it wasnt installed :(
[Desire Android Development] psygbert:
as almost everyone said earlier, bigger /data. more space for your apps. this requires s-off. to save you some time before you s-off, make sure that your /proc/mtd erasesize is not 40000 first.
[Desire Android Development] mikeandjaimie:
Gesture lock is different then Pattern lock. Pattern you go draw from 9 points on the screen, with Gesture, you can draw just about anything with your finger and it allows you to setup to unlock, answer, mute, goto msg's, etc..
[Desire Android Development] :
Why isn't the new market packaged with Oxygen?
[Desire Android Development] psygbert:
maybe because the old market works. what's the advantage of the new market as of now?

I guess the new UI :P

/mnt/sdcard files deleted

Did a full wipe, then flashed RC4 (from a zip in mnt/sdcard).

Started up, entered my google account etc. Mounted sdcard, and the root of the sdcard is empty. Directories under that are intact but the oxygen zip, titanium backup license txt etc are all deleted.

What could cause this?
[Desire Android Development] m aus m:
I have the same problem. What`s wrong?
[Desire Android Development] sjgore:
Same here. Very annoying.

Edit: New files added to SD-card can't be seen. WTF?
[Desire Android Development] woolmonkey:
Same here but I didn't wipe just flashed RC4 then when I got in my SD card was empty. A pain for sure.
[Desire Android Development] sjgore:
It gets worse... just discovered the SD-card root is wiped on every boot! Back to RC3.
[Desire Android Development] boeser:
+1 didn't wipe. First all worked well, did put most apps on sd-ext, and after a reboot hang on bootscreen (not the bootanimation). Reboot (battery out) and sd-card not recognized.

Did a "fastboot oem enablexdm 0" and now restoring nandroid.

Looks like RC4 doesn't like apps on ext-partition.

At this moment loops in bootanimation....:(

back to 1.04 and wait for more stable gingerbread :)
[Desire Android Development] Flashmaniac:
wups same here all my photos gone hehe

np good that I keep backing up importent things

can happen :P
[Desire Android Development] CM Wave:
Went through the whole process of S-OFF'ing my phone, backing up my apps, wiping, installing Oxygen, and re-installing everything back and... good stuff! The speed is great, but I am missing some features I liked having in OpenDesire, namely battery percentage on the notification bar. Are there any plans to add that back?
[Desire Android Development] takitoes:
Thanks AdamG!

Loving gingerbread and the ROM has been nothing but stable and fast for me so far, planning on upping to RC4 tonight.

Can someone explain to me how to S-OFF using one of the alternative Alpharev oxygen .iso? I can install the base one using the flash utility, but not so sure on how to flash the specialized hboots (like the Oxygen one).

Would also love to see transparent notification area and nicer notification bar icons :)

Keep up the good work!
[Desire Android Development] mikelward:
Sounds like RC4 jut came out, so don't know if this matters, but...

My RC3 Desire just froze and then started showing the Oxygen boot splash screen in a loop (boot loop?). It happened while I was typing on the keyboard either in Facebook or the browser, then the screen froze, then a few seconds later it got stuck in the splash loop.

Hours away from home. Not sure whether logcat info will still be there when I get the chance to grab it.
