If you're a noob you shouldn't be running the test version. The test version is for experienced testers.

Yes, you're problems are very likely caused by not wiping. You can try wiping the cache + dalvik cache first but if that doesn't help you'll have to do a full wipe. It makes a difference. Especially if coming from another rom.

There are several reasons that can cause poor battery performance. Including no proper wipe, apps not fully GB ready etc. Also remember to set advanced WiFi settings "wiFi sleep policy" to "never".

You should be okay with the default kernel. If not then you can try others by _thalamus (Oxygen), vork kernels by beenee or kernels from coutts.

i had probs with the test build (wiped all - twice before installing), all was fine apart from market. 1st time i opened it i signed in, then a reboot. opened the app again, reboot. everything else was fine oddly.

Shortcuts and Widgets not showing

hi all.

Hope someone can help.

First time flashing rom with my Desire and i have to say this rom is way better than the stock version.

My problem is a simple one, I can't add any shortcuts or widgets that appear higher than "s" in the alphabet! So shortcut to voice calls can't do becaue it doesn't appear in the list on items from a - s?

Any ideas?
[Desire Android Development] skeptic1007:
Dear All,

I have just downloaded the Test ROM. Before giving it a drive test, I have taken a look in the /system/app folder of the archive and compared it to the /system/app of RC6. There are a few extra files there, most of them being part of the Google stuff possible to be installed via Market. Please bear with me here and give me a feed-back about whether these files are compulsory and what is their purpose:

Thank you for your insight.

When I got this issue I applied the Microsoft procedure: shut down phone; battery off, card off; battery on; boot phone; phone off; battery off, card on, battery on; boot phone; success.
[Desire Android Development] ricevitore:
Hi everyone, first of all thanks for your work guys!

I need a little help...I have the oxygen rc6 rom and a 8gb kingston microsd (6 gb fat32, 2gb ext4).

I would like to use the data2whaterer with this rom so I have to..

1)reboot in recovery

2)wipe all

3)flash rc6

4)flash data2w (0.2e)

5) reboot

6) wait about half an hour for the data2 to settle

Right?

(and yep, i'm a noob!:rolleyes:)
[Desire Android Development] lwkoon:
I think u need to S-Off and flash N1table or oxygen table

correct me if i am wrong

What i've done to enable A2SD+ is to flash to oxygen table by using this ROM because previously i'm from desire HD sense ROM.

btw guys, the original kernel's battery wasn't good enough, i am trying coutts99's couttstech-2.6.37_OC1113_HAVS@875mV_Ginger_CFS_BFQ_SLQB.zip now, see how's goes, in coutts99's kernel post, he recommend oxygen gingerbread ROM uses his CFS kernel.
[Desire Android Development] VK7HSE:
Wow! The theme app in the current test release is cool :)
[Desire Android Development] Dramiro:

[Desire Android Development] matpil:
I've wiped all and installed rc6, after, without wiping, I've installed test version.

Now I can't modify power manager widget. I'm only installed another launcher....
[Desire Android Development] Mr. Frost:
Then just delete them before flashing...
[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
He's referring to a test rom.
[Desire Android Development] skeptic1007:
Yes, this is exactly what I am going to do. My point is different. I was asking about feed-back on my understanding of the three types of applications. Am I right that we can install from market ALL those apps in the "do not need" class. Which of the apps from the "do not know" class form the newly introduced theme updater pack, and what represent the other apk's? Are them necessary?

So, I asked about a constructive feed-back about my understanding. Of course I can remove whatever I want from any ROM, and resign the ROM. I am sorry that you understood otherwise, I may not have been very clear about it.
[Desire Android Development] eruben:
Using Test ROM i miss a lot apps from Market update list so have to search and update them manually which is annoying.

I'm sure most probably this is not ROM's problem but will be glad to get any help from you.

[Desire Android Development] Loccy:
Have just switched to Oxygen, am liking it - nice, smooth, small and fast. But one thing I have to say:

Visual zoom controls on the browser. AAAARRRRRGH. Please, please, please bring over the code to suppress them. It's been a while since I played with the browser code but can't believe it'd be that difficult.
[Desire Android Development] zlivan:
Definitely.

It just gets in the way and is completely unnecessary when you have double tap and pinch to zoom. That and getting rid of status bar while browsing would make everything perfect.

Me too but I do not have time at present

Lol , at every app you're installing , your phone reboot itself ?
[Desire Android Development] naguz:
Pinch zoom is not an option while holding it in one hand and walking etc., and dubletap *always* zooms in too much. I think there are quite a few people who would not like to see them gone. An option maybe, but not removed.
[Desire Android Development] nespresso33:

Before this release , there was no mode silent on volume down , so what was there?

Nothing before lower volume ?:confused:

Anyone having problems with wallpapers? live wallpapers are fine, no problems at all, but if i want to change a live wallpaper with a static one it doesn' t change... live wallpaper just stays there.
[Desire Android Development] mlilldroid:
Did you restart zeam under menu preferences after changing wallpaper?
[Desire Android Development] zlivan:
You'd be amazed at what a little practice can do for your single handed pinch to zoom operation :D and by the way, you can always define how much you want the double tap to zoom in in settings (far, medium, close).

But yes, an option to disable/enable zoom controls is just fine, I wasn't thinking about removing them completely.
[Desire Android Development] ClassicalGas:
I don't think the white themes have been updated properly, the phone restarts when back button is longpressed. I'm currently using the flat hinted black and all is good. Will try and fix in the morning.

hmm...i noticed that if i make a wipe after installing a new build the pone bootloops when i try to reboot, woot?

Also, each time i restore a nandroid the process system crahes when booting, so the phone doesn't boot at all and stays stuck at that error message. I have to do a soft reset to make it boot normally...
[Desire Android Development] wilo108:
I've been using Oxygen for a couple of weeks now, and I'm very happy with it. I'm just posting to register my gratitude to Adam and everyone else whose work has contributed to this great ROM, and also to make a couple of small observations.

I had "force-close" with the Market 2.2.7, but only if I hadn't previously signed in once and accepted the TOC using 2.2.6. If I do this first, and *then* flash 2.2.7, there are no problems whatsoever.

I also got some "force-close"s with the setup wizard, on my first boot after applying the alpharev oxygen hboot.

Finally I continue to have bad battery performance. I've just wiped *everything* (including the dalvik cache and the battery stats) and done a clean install of RC6. Then the only thing I've done is install the Current Widget. The lowest value I've seen is 64mA, going up into the 400s on occasion. The phone is doing nothing. It's connected to a WPA2 wap, but data services, bluetooth, gps etc. are all off.

For comparison, I tried the same procedure using unmodified versions of the N.S.A (2010-11-16) ROM, and Pinky Desire 1.8 (the last two ROMS I've used, both FroYo), and have usage in the expected range (resting at around 6-8mA, going up from time to time with usage).

I'm not moaning - I think I'm gonna stick with Oxygen anyway, despite this, but I just wanted to report my experience.

Cheers!
[Desire Android Development] reNppa:
newest vorkkernel, still have in-call volume problem, too loud...

plaaaaaaaaah! fix it pls!
[Desire Android Development] coaxism:
I got the same issue.

The fix is to mount the sd card on a windows machine, "safely remove hardware" to unmount it, and try again in your phone.

I seem to have got it after I flashed the latest ClockWorkMod (3.0.0.5). Whenever im in the recovery menu, the issue arises again.

Anyone else?
[Desire Android Development] Dramiro:
I love Oxygem because is the first ROM clean :D And I don't have to modify the zip before flashing

[Desire Android Development] tjakopec:
Battery.

Hey, everyone!

I've been using Oxygen for a few days now and I'm very satisfied with it. It's fast, smooth, quite stable, only a few crashes so far, but what I've noticed since the very beginning of using it is that my battery goes out insanely fast.

Now, I did read that this might be a problem of some of the apps I got and not the ROM itself, and I did install CurrentWidget to check out the current. It's currently showing me around 300mA (sometimes up to 400mA). When I'm using absolutely nothing, no internet connection, no applications running or anything it's around 30mA. The lowest I've seen is 27mA.

This is quite a big problem for me, considering that the battery has become incapable of holding out a regular day (listening to music while walking to my class for about 10 minutes; an hour or so of browsing twitter, foursquare etc. during classes; maybe send a few messages; walking back from classes [music again - 15 min max] and there you go, the battery's almost out...).

Now, this sounds pretty much unreal, but it's my current situation...

Q

: Could you guys help me out? How can I find out which app drains the most of the battery? Is there an app that tracks it? What would you do in such situation?

I'm also willing to share the list of my apps, if it helps to find a common-known problem in an app or something.

EDIT: Also, forgot to mention that earlier this morning I have charged my HTC Desire to 100% and lay it aside my laptop while I was writing a seminar. After about 2 hours or maybe a bit more I grabbed the phone and checked the battery - it was 87%! How is it possible that after 2-3 hours of not using the phone at all it gets 13% of it's battery drained? This is very confusing. :)

Thanks in advance,

T.J.
[Desire Android Development] SonyXperia:
Great ROM Thanks.

Any idea when a working camcorder will be implemented into this ROM..?

[Desire Android Development] daniel.mitran:
For the 100th time: when the Nexus One OTA arrives
[Desire Android Development] twicejr:
I suggest that you install systempanel lite (or pro, has monitoring in bg too).

When you notice a high current, quickly go to systempanel, and check the cpu of all apps.. if you cant make something of it, end em all, and wait untill you notice it again on currentwidget, just keep trying to find the app that drains your battery!

Problem is not oxygen.
[Desire Android Development] tjakopec:
Thanks, installed it, gonna try to figure out what's the problem.

Also, the 5-10mA current is normal when the phone is idle, right? What is the normal current when, for instance, I have TweetDeck, Winamp, Battery Booster and Lookout Security (or any other combination of 3-4 similar apps) running?
[Desire Android Development] EViollet:
I'd say that on a clean install you should be having 3/4 mA .

On my Froyo system, with lots if apps installed I get 3-5 mA. So I'd say that 5-10 seems like a lot.

But maybe Gingerbread uses the battery more than Froyo?
[Desire Android Development] fx3000se:
same here...
[Desire Android Development] ProZac83:
Re: The current usage debate...

Just did a complete wipe, formatted everything. Reinstalled Oxygen2 RC6, installed current widget as the only extra app. Have turned mobile data, wifi and bluetooth off, and its showing a current draw just sitting there of 241mA.

I've seen it as low as 4mA, but only very briefly directly after the device has been bought out of sleep mode, then it heads back up to the 250 range. Will let it just sit for a wee bit longer and see if it calms down at all. This would imply that it's only using 4mA of current when asleep... Which is about what you would expect?

Will make some observations then compare with Oxygen 1.

[Desire Android Development] flyingff82:
After some time using the new test build i'm almost very happy with it. Everything runs good and smooth, BUT i noticed also a little higher battery drain. After 15 hours i have 73% left, what seems too much as i didn't use the phone...

So i flashed again the coutts 875mv Kernel, let's see how this performs with the test build...
[Desire Android Development] itshotinhere:
Seriously? I haven't been able to use it for a while. Definitely don't have it working on the latest test ROM. The only way I was adfree on RC6 was to install rookeemod. Want to stay as stock as possible now I'm on the test ROM so I'm putting up with ads. Is there any easy way to replace the hosts file without having to resort to adb? Does anyone else have a flashable zip that just replaces the current with the latest hosts file?
[Desire Android Development] :
So I wonder where your problems come from.
[Desire Android Development] grenadecx:
My CurrentWidget displays 0mA at all times, does that mean I'm special? :D

[Desire Android Development] Semicuda:
Just do it yourself... you're using a test build, so I assume you know what you're doing. It's not that hard. And don't even ask for step-by-step instructions, because I won't give you any.
[Desire Android Development] suiller:
hmm... no sorry I use CoPilot & iGO, both work perfectly

but if I remember well I read that navigon doesn't work at all (yet) on gingerbread, so I suppose it's not a fault of the rom/ginger but simply the application isn't ready (like many others)
[Desire Android Development] Semicuda:
Good work... you didn't even read the post you quoted. That's something new, alright :)
[Desire Android Development] hjklein:
Thanks for your answer (although it was not realy what I was looking for) at least I have got some responses and now I know that this is something I could do on my own.

Unfortunately your assumption that only very experienced users will use the testbuild is not right. I'm on a lets say steep learing curve.

This is making me sad :( Using Current widget, and it shows that my phone is draining about 100mA when screen is turned off, this is with a full wipe, the 825mW kernel from coutts99 and the .27 radio and nothing else installed, no other apps...

WTF!?
[Desire Android Development] Cod3r:

[Desire Android Development] Cactus42:
It's not an assumption, it's a statement of what SHOULD be happening. It has been stated time and again that the only people who should be using the test build are devs, and that if (like me) you're using it anyway, you aren't supported.
[Desire Android Development] Semicuda:
Do you get 100mA or -100mA? If it's positive, you should disconnect your phone from USB/charger :)

I get -6mA when asleep, with _thalamus' 875mv Kernel and WiFi-Policy set to 'never'.
