This ROM is getting better and better:) Love the power widgets in the status bar!

One problem though, my phone gets a bit slow sometimes, on earlier RC4-5 it helped to use a different kernel. Is there one thats working good with RC6 that got a bit more power?
[Desire Android Development] Dario777:
THere's only one thing that i really miss from sense and haven't found a solution yet... The tap-to-focus feature of the camera. I've done quite a bit of reading and haven't found any solutions...

I don't guess any of you guys know of anything, right?
[Desire Android Development] Voormijgeenvfmeer:
I've been testing today, just sitting at my desk, right on top of my router.

Same apps installed, no widgets on homescreens, just letting my phone being idle at my desk...

Kernel lowering voltage doesn't have much effect on power usage, it gets better, but not much...

Fact is, when flashing RC1 or the 1 dec kernel my power usage drops significant, and with significant I mean about 90%, so imho there is a little difference between the two kernels which causes my battery-drain.

I just took a quick look at the wifi.supplicant_scan_interval, but that one is set to 15 in both kernels.

I'll take a closer look tomorrow:D

I'm also considering a full wipe, new flash of RC6 and a few reboots, just to be sure...

Thnx for your comment, now at least I have a small clue where to search...

Edit: Before creating misunderstandings, I always perform a full wipe befor flashing a new rom, even when updating.
[Desire Android Development] jfassbinder:
+1

same here. I love Oxygen, but currently im on RCMIXHD, because of the much better camera. I also tried camera 360 as an alternative, but its really crappy.

Also, to me it feels like, when on sense my camera pictures are better. Or is that just me?
[Desire Android Development] KroonBerg:
I don't know if this is of any use, but when I had CyanogenMod 6 (FroYo) I could use that.. it might be a setting in this ROM (will test it later).
[Desire Android Development] Dario777:
Wow, really? LIke a separate app or did it come with the ROM? :confused:

This would make me soooooooooo happy!
[Desire Android Development] schiznik:
It's the cyanogen camera app, part of the rom
[Desire Android Development] Dario777:
Is there no way of porting it over? shouldn't be too hard considering they are both AOSP roms... right?
[Desire Android Development] tlazar4:
I am still having the same issue like in RC5,i installed RC6 with a full wipe and still cant write on web pages or in search in landscape mode... i cant run games in landscape mode... often games just close,not force close but just shut down and i got to my home screen... anyone haviing same issueor any idea of a solution? It is really bothering me :S
[Desire Android Development] LuffyPSP:
actually instead of missing the touch to focus, i missed sense dialer! which i wont be going back!
[Desire Android Development] Milamber:
I have done a wipe/reset and installed RC6 and I noticed I only have 86mb free? I have a partition that I created via Rom Manger 512mb and my phone is s-off

Any idea what i have done wrong?
[Desire Android Development] nukleuzN:
This release is so smooth! Ordinary I should've been out of power for a long time ago, but I'm still on 43% power. That is(!!!!) amazing!

It takes my breath away ;)
[Desire Android Development] nukleuzN:
Dialer One is the app for you my friend! ;)
[Desire Android Development] Pesikar:
You can use Dialer One (available on the market made by Yermek Zhumagulov) if you want to use a Sense like dialer.
[Desire Android Development] davidbis:
I would like this too.
[Desire Android Development] cangia:
whit RC6 , can i use a differente kernel like the last [KERNEL]vorkKernel-BFS/CFS-BFQ-AXI-SVS/HAVS-OC/UV[03-Jan-11] ?
[Desire Android Development] Gebbot:
Some apps uses additional libs. The libs will be placed in /data/date which is not mounted on ext3. Navigation apps like Navigon, copilot or aura do that.
[Desire Android Development] :
thanks. it is always good to check in and see short-minded people like yourself insulting what i put hours and hours into for no rewards. if you are comparing zeam to feature-rich launchers, then yes it will fall short. it is intended to be an unobtrusive and simple launcher without the bloat. sure it is not for everyone, which is okay with me. you have the freedom to install another launcher, but no need to insult myself or adams choice to include zeam in oxygen. and zeam is far from ugly.
[Desire Android Development] SimonVT:
I love your launcher, nice and lightweight.
[Desire Android Development] HyunJoon:
i just flashed rc6 over and it work...^^ and i noticed no errors!

very fast and smooth! and i adore the animations :)
[Desire Android Development] paamet:
just a thought... have you tried a different router, or even switching it off? there may be some incompatebilities.
[Desire Android Development] markeh:
yea i like zeam too, thanks :)

can anyone help - i'm getting random bootloop type problems where the phone reverts to the green oxygen boot screen then after ages the lockscreen appears briefly and then goes back to the green oxygen boot screen.

it doesnt happen often but it occured with RC4 and now with RC6, does anyone have any ideas?
[Desire Android Development] neomoz:
I checked out the framework-res.apk, the glow effect is broken up into 2 png images,

overscroll_edge.png which is the orange line.

and

overscroll_glow.png which is the glow effect that alpha blends and can band.

I think it could be easy to remove the use of overscroll_glow but keep overscroll_edge.
[Desire Android Development] D4NM4C:
seconded.

zeam ftmfw!!
[Desire Android Development] potter1984:
Your Launcher is amazing, FREE Lightweight and above all clean.

You have done an amazing job, don't let the narrow minded "simpletons" take away from what is a really good app :P
[Desire Android Development] LuffyPSP:
i know. thats the thing, i dont like it. its not as clean as sense dialer.
[Desire Android Development] ClassicalGas:
[sarcasm]

Yeah...zeam is so ugly! See

[/sarcasm]
[Desire Android Development] chareos12:
I played a lot with rc6, with full wiped system and no titanium backups, launcherpro freshly installed... it just lags. I can also notice this with Zeam.

I see many people here say no lag at all. There must be some kind of hardware difference, or something.

Sure thing is, I really hope for a Rc7 with a menu option between smooth graphics or fast one, like in old OpenDesire days. I couldn't care less for that end-of-list eyecandy... while I do care for faster graphics. Hell, I rooted my phone just to get the most fluid rom :-)

PS: "use another rom" or similar answers are just plain irritating, unuseful, and cheap. Could we all just try and avoid those?
[Desire Android Development] litening:
When I was still on Sense I would load ADW launcher first thing after each flash to replace the Sense launcher.

Am very happy with Zeam and see no need to 'F' around with an alternative launcher anymore.

Thanks for a great launcher, clean crisp and fully customizable the way I like it.
[Desire Android Development] agsel:
I just tried RC 6 for the second time. I agree that it's running smooth. I don't have any lag. It's responsive. But I don't have 60 fps anymore :(

Trying another kernel before i go back to RC5 again.
[Desire Android Development] :
Awwwwwwwwwwwwwww, my deepest felt condolences that you don't have 60fps anymore.

What were you planning on doing with those fps?

You are moaning for the sake of moaning.

You said yourself, it's smooth, you don't have any lag and it's responsive. Please tell me, what the hell can anyone do to make you happy?
[Desire Android Development] nisbne:
man thank you sooo much for this ive spent ages trying to link ppl ahhh.

thanks have a great weekend
[Desire Android Development] agsel:
:-) don't get me wrong, I think you guys are doing an awesome job

I just love the awesome feeling of the smoothness in rc 5. And I miss it, that's the only thing.

So if you can do it, what's wrong in expecting that you do it every release?
[Desire Android Development] :
Because the 60fps was artificial really, the rendering surfaces were reverted in RC5 to lower rendering quality which speeded it up a lot. I don't know whether you noticed, but I certainly did, the quality of the graphics was crap, both for the overscroll effects and for when you moved widgets around, hence why they were reverted again in RC6 to make it look better.

It's a bit like turning the graphics quality down in a game to make it run faster, you trade off quality for performance.

I think that the main issues with lag and stuff have been resolved, thats why it took Adam so long to release RC6, because I had a load of people testing kernels like mad trying to find the right combination to solve a ****load of issues, such as lag, reboots, stability, etc. :)

What we have now is much faster than RC4 for sure, and much more stable than RC5, although the graphics are slightly slower, but better quality.

As regards the fps, you might get a few more after the proprietary drivers from the N1 OTA are available, when Google get their finger out and release it.....sometime....soon....hopefully. :rolleyes:
[Desire Android Development] alienatics:
I just have my desire for 2 days and I already flashed three roms...so far this is the best with few problams among them is the market is not updating neither I can install APk of the updated version and strangely nfs shift is not working anymore it just shows the logo and stops(works on stock and other rom)..any solution of these..btw thanks for your hard work.
[Desire Android Development] Pyr0wl:
I have always been a great fan of the HTC Sense ROMs, but now, with RC6 of this great Gingerbread ROM, I'm actually considering to switch.

It has a smooth user experience, it's bleeding edge, so far it has been stable, no FC errors yet.. I can't complain. The only thing that I've noticed, is that there's somewhat greater battery drain than I experienced before with any other ROM's.

But meh, it's still an RC, I'm not going to make an issue out of this.

Long story short: great work! Really appreciate the efforts you've put in this ROM :-)
[Desire Android Development] agsel:
Thanks for a good answer. I noticed messing around with Zeam launcher settings for wallpaper give some extra boost in performance so I think I'll stick with the rc 6 and agreeably better graphics this time :)
[Desire Android Development] :
Yeah, that works for all the launchers.

Disabling wallpaper scrolling boosts performance a lot. Cloakt, the author of zeam, said it himself in a post before. :)
[Desire Android Development] kinkade:
chin up dude, i love your launcher, not at all tempted to install launcher pro or adw, seems like lots of people here agree with me too, keep up the good work and ignore the trolls
[Desire Android Development] Capitalism:
Hey i would just like to say that i rooted my desire for the first time today, and did some looking around for a gingerbread rom and found this one, and man is it awesome! I've used both sense, launcher pro, and ADW. But this just beats all of those! The smoothness is incredible, and it just looks overall much better. One question though, is there any way to get the new market app, or do we have to use the old one for the rom? Also, where is the standard wallpaper for the rom saved, as i would like to use it again but i cant find it anymore :p
[Desire Android Development] eZZa KaT:
Just wanted to say thank you team for the ROM.

I have been using it since RC5, I had some weird issues (Market FC'ing) on RC5 when switching kernels but all is fine now on RC6 on both the 875 and 975 Kernels, it could be because I am not using the New Market anymore as suggested, but I am happy with it none the less.

I am currently running the 875 Kernel (Just to test it out btw) with no reboots at all for about 16 hours, but I have only ever had one of those (on RC5) and it was while using the New Market as well. If I do have another I will post it and move up to 925.

RC5 kinda stuttered between home screens for me a little, it was ever so slight though, but in RC6 it is smooth like you would expect it to be.

Battery drain, I have not really had issues everything was better than I had under the stock HTC Sense ROM so I am happy, I have improved my battery life more by changing the wifi policy to sleep when screen off and turning bluetooth (Which works fine for me also) off when not in use.

The only issues I am aware of right now are the ones that will be fixed with the Nexus One Gingerbread release. On that someone noted earlier that the Nexus One users are starting to get the Gingerbread update and I did a search and found a couple of web sites (redmondpie.com and androidcommunity.com) talking about it people getting it.

Anyways thanks again team!
[Desire Android Development] eZZa KaT:
Second that, happy with Zeam, tried others out of curiosity but prefer Zeam.

On your 3rd screen shot there is a widget that has mail, rss, facebook and twitter tabs, what is it? Looks interesting.
[Desire Android Development] wirelezzz:
installed great after wipe and clearing all cache , one thing i use a lot on my desire is the LED light when i get a text or email, i dont seem to have it working.

any hints how to get LED light going for emails and txt in handcent ?

THANKS
[Desire Android Development] neomoz:
I figured that was the case, I looked into the code and saw how the edge glow worked, couldn't see anything specific to adjusting rendering quality there, so I assumed you must of downgraded the overall system rendering surfaces color depth to speed things up.

Just to me the biggest difference UI wise between android/iOS/winmo7 is the rendering speed, iOS/winmo7 run at 60fps and that gives a nice perceived feel that things aren't lagging. Android has always struggled to maintain 60fps and just felt laggier because of it. IMO RC5s 60fps smoothness was one of the most promising features that separated it from other roms, because you spend a lot of time scrolling in the UI.

Is there anyway we can make the rendering setting configurable? That way those that want 60fps and don't mind downgraded color can do so, those that feel they need more color depth can take the rendering lag hit.
[Desire Android Development] eZZa KaT:
I did some quick testing, the Gmail LED works fine for me (When the screen is off). I haven't tried the normal mail app though.

For Handcent I had to turn off the "Screen on for Popup" to get the LED light up (When the screen is off), when that option is set the LED won't come on also.

Hope that helps!
[Desire Android Development] Milamber:
Thats the install size after the ROM has just been installed though 86mb!
[Desire Android Development] kekek20:
Brilliant job! Thanks to everyone involved from Adam to thalamus. Everything works perfectly from root to flash. Only real bug experienced is the seconds long lag when call begins.

Cheers!
[Desire Android Development] fourire:
I want to give it a try to this rom but since there is no sense, what does it take to recover contacts,calendar appointments, applications, google, etc. ?
[Desire Android Development] BeeGee_Tokyo:
All of this is standard in Android. HTC Sense just adds their own stuff.

You can see my app list on AppBrain with apps that I use to make live more comfortable.
[Desire Android Development] Stijnux:
Coming from cya 6... i found this rom intresting till i found out my camera isn't working.. any way to fix this?
[Desire Android Development] skiddyrow:
CloakT, ignore the haters - there are tons of people (including me) who love Zeam. I don't see the point in choosing to go with a minimalistic ROM like Oxygen and then adding on a launcher with more features than you need. My Launcher Pro and ADW launchers have been purchased and sitting idle in the market. I have chosen to keep Zeam as it does everything I need it to and works great with Oxygen.

Keep up the awesome work!
[Desire Android Development] Shyujikou:
Same question.

I don't think render fxs are suitable for daily use except for calibrated profiles.
[Desire Android Development] globiboulga:
I second that. I always thought I'd never get away from Sense (it's bloated but no more than other Launchers) until I tried Zeam. It is a magnificent piece of software and one that will always be my choice on Android. Keep up the awesome work!

Hi.

I just switched to this rom today. I'm loving it so far. Something I just came across as I'm standing in line at rta (worse than a public hospital I swear!), is that I cannot view the netbank logon page in the browser. Sorry if this has already been covered. Any ideas?

Cheers
[Desire Android Development] psygbert:
and i was saying from my previous post, i wasn't answering him. i am reacting to him! his comment wasn't pleasant in my eyes upon reading it that's why i reacted harshly. beside, he could just search the thread as that question has been asked multiple times!

i know this is off-topic but i just can't resist to react on what he said.
[Desire Android Development] O Sophos:
I've excellent battery life.

By the way, with zeam launcher, 5x5 and 7screens and every screen more than half filled with apps, zeam is no longer buttery... However my launch pro still is! I'm using two homes right now. Hahaha.

And by the way, where can I change the sleep policy thing? I can't find it any where.
[Desire Android Development] anotherdroid:
geez, XDA is cranky as **** today!

anyway, i just fired up O2 for the first time, wooohoo!
[Desire Android Development] d1n0x:
Ha. Ha. Strange - after a couple of hours of leaving the phone untouched it now runs smooth as butter lol I don't know why, but it is AWESOME :) maybe cause of dalvik garbage collection or whatnot, but I am satisfied for now and eagerly awaiting the Nexus OTA :)
[Desire Android Development] nisbne:
Hey i had the same problem, its to do with the apn settings go in and change it to the apn telstra.internet (which is telstra.wap) and it should work fine
[Desire Android Development] daveaus:
Thanks, this worked! Is there a way to flash them into the rom itself? The reason I want to do this is in case the sdcard is usb mounted when someone calls.

I have tried 2 things. Copying them over using root explorer appears to work but the files just don't appear in the directory. I also took a froyo rom and deleted everything but the /system/media directory and flashed it but this didnt work.

If I take the oxygen zip then add the files to /system/media/audio then flash it over my current rom would this do it?
[Desire Android Development] duuri:
hi,

first adam i want to thank you for great work and hard effort!

but i have small problem with powercontrol widget in 0.2.. i can't switch between 2g and 3g.. tried all settings for that button, but it doesn't work..if i have in settings use only 2g network it stays so..if i switch to 3g it wont change to 2g with powercontrol widget :( any suggestions?

I added an extra option to use the volume rocker to obtain silent mode.

Hello!

Thank you for this fast ROM!

Is there any chance you will integrate Sense versions of dialer, contacts, sms. I think they are more attractive and functional.

I agree. Smooth scrolling is the only thing left to beat the iphone on every front. :P

But let's just wait for the nexus ota and see if we get both the smoothnes and the full color depth, if not than I and many others would be delighted to se a faster and uglyer build as well.

Hi,

this ROM is almost perfect! Everything is super smooth and fast. I've got one little problem though: if I add more than three widgets to my homescreens, ALL launchers I've tried (Zeam, LP, ADW EX, Go) crash after some time using the phone. Has anyone of you also experienced this?

Edit: I wiped everything before flashing Oxygen of course.
[Desire Android Development] syla:


My launchers are crashing too ,especially adw ex... zeam seems to be the most stable one...
