Have it too and was not there in rc4 but was there in rc3. Did you find or add it to the bug list?
[Desire Android Development] Kollegah:
guys its not a bug. read the changelog of rc5 "reverted graphics like rc3" or so
[Desire Android Development] cangia:

Any Battery Drain Solution..??
[Desire Android Development] mark_v:
Ty. I was wondering what that ment :)
[Desire Android Development] saudoo:
That's a new feature in Gingerbread. ;)
[Desire Android Development] kaldean:
please search the forum before posting a question that has been reported a million times. there is a guide in the beginning of this thread you will find everything you need there
[Desire Android Development] razer667:
Lets hope the n1 get gingerbread soon(TM) :)
[Desire Android Development] StillDRE:
I got a huge Battery drain problem too. I feel like the battery has been draining faster for every RC update that comes?

I went to bed 0730, woke up 1300, 45% down in idle mode.

In the battery usage thing, My screen has used 31%, Android system 30%, and the rest each under 8%.

Another goog thing is that my phone wakes from idle everytime I push the power button, hope that it will keep doing that :)

Happy new year.
[Desire Android Development] gilibs:

[Desire Android Development] gilibs:
I have added this already to the bug list.
[Desire Android Development] ettore2379:
It seems to me that home page scrolling was a lot better in RC4!

Happy new year! :)
[Desire Android Development] :
It's the kernel. There is a problem in smd_rpcrouter.c but it isn't triggered all the time, it's random. I found that putting the wifi sleep mode to anything other than 'Never' triggered it.

It's also reported here: http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/detail?id=2189

Also, you can tell that this bug is occurring from userspace by high CPU usage by the suspend process and a massive number of SMD_RPCCALL wakelocks.
[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
After flashing RC5 my official Swype Beta version didn't want to work anymore.

For all of having the same problem:

Uninstall it and then reinstall it again. Then it is working.
[Desire Android Development] DiamondGar:
yeh i agree i felt RC4 was slicker for me
[Desire Android Development] kaldean:
im having problems with zeam launcher and launcher pro they are not responsive what so ever i had to revert back to RC4 am i the only one with this problem
[Desire Android Development] Caspian3011:
I must say that RC4 was smoother for me; faster, better and slicker animations, faster home switching in LauncherPro, etc. Keep up the good work Adam, this is what RCs and testing are for ;)
[Desire Android Development] fx3000se:
thnx. How fast can this be solved (for Oxygen Gingerbread)? Should I/we revert to RC4?
[Desire Android Development] DarkAngel00:
installed rc5 over rc4 no wipe radio 49 wifi on only rc5 apps and no touched any settings lost ~50% in 10h (from 11.55pm to 10.30 am)

today at 10.45 batt at 43%

do all wipe

installed rc5

installed radio 44 (as suggested in post 1)

do the "welcome to android" then turn on wifi (my network is wpa protected)

do not restore anything (sms, contacts, apps, etc)

put phone (batt at 39%) on table doing anything (recived some sms but not read to leave phone screen off)

from 11.00 to 13.30 batt is at 23%

no hboot and no s-off

after this i return sadly to stock rom until a solution.
[Desire Android Development] dedreiix:
I have just updated from RC 4 to RC 5. Before I did that I wiped cache.

Everything is fine, except of ad free. It is no longer able to update the hosts file.

I dont know why.

Has someone an idea what went wrong?
[Desire Android Development] cTrox:
This doesn't make sense, it should be the opposite way. Well for me it is. And I have a pretty early AMOLED Desire and not an LCD one.
[Desire Android Development] aslsthlm:
meh, I lose mine when I download from market :confused::(
[Desire Android Development] kaldean:
not really for some of us RC4 is better at the moment im having problems as well the launchers dont respond what so ever and had to revert back
[Desire Android Development] :
Lol. People are obsessed with 'reverting'.

Reverting isn't going to do anything, it's a random bug which exists in the kernel. You have just as much chance getting it in RC1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8/9.

It's also in the bugtracker, reported on RC4: http://code.google.com/p/oxygen-rom/issues/detail?id=380

This patch, which came from the upstream android source, was supposed to fix the issue back in 2009: https://github.com/CyanogenMod/cm-kernel/commit/338aafeea260f301180e8415404de1ff75e2fd88#L0L95

But it didn't completely, as I have seen it numerous times in the past on various ROM's with various kernels. The high CPU usage by suspend is how you tell this is occurring.

An issue needs to be opened with the AOSP project and hopefully they will fix it properly this time.

[Desire Android Development] randomelements:
For some reason RC5 just doesn't feel very smooth for me even with the low res graphics implemented - RC4 was smooth - even launcher pro. I have tried both an upgrade and a wipe/clean install.

Reverting back to RC4 for now.
[Desire Android Development] fx3000se:
"the newer the better", right?

which means...?
[Desire Android Development] :
As you are running a test rom, instead of 'reverting' all the time why not assist and find out what is causing the 'doesn't feel very smooth' issue?
[Desire Android Development] dedreiix:
I´m not S-off. But I wasnt before too?

Thats the point I dont get.

I will try the way with the symbolic link. Tnx.

Worked perfectly. Thanks.
[Desire Android Development] fx3000se:
thx again for this clarification. I "thought" the bug was introduced with the new gingerbread kernel update of RC5. That's why I asked about reverting to RC4...
[Desire Android Development] :
Exactly. It'd be great for Oxygen to be as stock and minimal as possible, and have mods available separately. This way everybody is happy.
[Desire Android Development] chronicfathead:
I'm just happy it's a nice shiny rom, which lasts OK battery wise. I can never tell which RC (Release Candidate, not final) is better, as I use it differently every time I take it off charge. I unplugged it this morning at 8:30, and have used it constantly since. It is currently 12:46, and it is now at 63%.

Roughly 10% an hour being used for web browsing, Tapatalk usage and general install/uninstall use and messing around with location profiles.

It's good enough for me. A normal charge will last me from 7am-9pm.

My iPhone 3g lasts over 3 days without use, but I can get it to go flat by 3pm if I use it hard. You will never do the same thing every day, so the only way to find out for sure is to leave the phone alone after installing the different roms, which I can't see anyone doing.

We can keep grumbling or get on and enjoy our phones, and hope that they get more efficient. The main usage on my Desire is the screen, so that would be the place to concentrate for me. Ignore the small niggles, and look for some way of reducing power consumption. I seem to remember reading something somewhere about reducing the voltage supply to the screen by a 5-10mV, which would be a 10+% reduction.

Would that equate to getting a couple of extra hours out of the battery?

Happy New year.:D
[Desire Android Development] gilibs:
I think what's bothering randomelements is the problem described in bug 396.

I'm considering reverting to RC4 as well until this issue is fixed.

I'm working with LauncherPro and i can't notice a drastic improvement in graphic performance - rather the scrolling experience is so bad on RC5 as compared to RC4 that it is better to stay in RC4.

Don't take me wrong on this, i LOVE the work you're doing here.

Thanx!

Not me I´m filming with 1080p resolution, does´t you all guys do that ;):D
[Desire Android Development] :
No, it wasn't. It has always been there.
[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
Just one question how many homescreens do you use and how many widgets?
[Desire Android Development] :
It's pointless testing RC4 though. It's RC5 which needs to be tested if the bugs are to be found.

For most people there isn't a problem with 'lagginess' in RC5.
[Desire Android Development] TheYang:
Just not with your Desire?
[Desire Android Development] Caspian3011:
For me RC4 is simply much smoother. Just downgraded back to it and the differences are significant in speed and look (the animations like the 90s GIF are back in RC5 for me).
[Desire Android Development] chronicfathead:
Has anybody noticed strange behaviour with SetCPU?

Just playing around, and it doesn't seem to be going over 806Mhz for me which is one of the profiles I have set up for less than 20% battery.

I normally have it set to ondemand, but if I set it to performance, then I see 1152MHz as the set speed.

It should be at 1152MHz max, but it isn't hitting it. Could this be something to do with the snappiness people are on about? Can someone double check their SetCPU for me to see if they have the same behaviour.

Thanks.
[Desire Android Development] FordT:
Geolocation

Hi,

I just looked at the Bug-Tracker and found an issue described as "geolocation not working in tasker". It was removed as "invalid", as a probable bug in Tasker.

I have the same (and more similar) problems with this and other applications. Several applications relying on A-GPS i.e. geolocation through the 3G network, are unable to get a fix.

Since Google Maps seems to work (the fix it gets is too fast for real GPS ;-) I suspect that the framework of Gingerbread is different to the Froyo one in this respect.

Can somebody enlighten me on this topic? I can't seem to find a discussion of this question anywhere. I don't hope it is true that every app using A_GPS will have to be updated by the author to work on Gingerbread...

Regards,

Ford
[Desire Android Development] Vrachos:
Hello everyone,

Meanwhile, sorry for my English.

Then I wanted to say that today I installed the RC5 and I am happy at the moment, since the installation with all the facts wipe, I also brought the good surprise to me that I had reinstalled the programs thanks to sync with google.

The phone is fine with me, although occasionally there is a slight lag, however, that the launcher found in the other RC and I could not remove even installing other launcher. Does anyone have any idea how to improve it?

For battery life, having just installed I have no idea how long, but for the use which I'm sure there will be no problems.

Thanks to all developers and Adam

Just letting you know.

Upgraded to RC5 from RC3 without any problems (without any wipe).

Still using original HBOOT with ext3 SD partition.

Can we get trackpad wake-up on next release?

Also still waiting patiently for camcorder function. Anyone know if someone got it working on Android 2.3 Desire?

In the mean time A Happy 2011 to all and thanks to AdamG for an already wonderful ROM.
[Desire Android Development] leegil:
Hi,

I have used RC5 with and without the Oxygen HBOOT. Without HBOOT I only had about 90MB free space for Apps. With HBOOT i have nearly 300MB.

However when I applied the new HBOOT my ROM no longer booted so do a backup, apply the HBOOT (Volume Down - Power), then recovery your previously backed up image.

I changed my HBOOT as I will stay with this ROM and most likely will not go back to a Sense ROM as the apps from the Market can do almost everything HTC Sense can do.
[Desire Android Development] Flashmaniac:
so why does it show internal memory left 80mb under applications?
[Desire Android Development] cypis:
I've notice that too..
[Desire Android Development] psygbert:

[Desire Android Development] SophosDesore:
I'm so sorry I don't have so much time to read all the 1000+ pages of posts.

I was using RC4 and my phone reseted by itself twice. Once was when it was idle. Another was when I was playing some games.

It then got stucked at the boot screen showing OXYGEN and then not progressing.

Did anyone experienced that? Did RC5 fixed that? If not I dont think I want to shift to RC5 since I read of some problems over there as well..
[Desire Android Development] Nitrius:
What's the "best" or recommended settings for the Automatic backlight option?
[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
You can take this ini script and copy it you your phone while in recovery (or if you are s-off, while phone is running):

adb push 10apps2sd.txt /system/etc/init.d/10apps2sd
adb shell chmod 0750 /system/etc/init.d/10apps2sd

It should move your dalvik-cache back to the ext partition on next reboot.

I take NO resposibility for any damage. Do a nandroid backup before you change any system file.
[Desire Android Development] Vaedryn:
When i am flash oxy hboot and i will go back to a other rom i can do this with oxy hboot.? Sorry for this question but i dont know it.

the rom has to fit to the system partion though.

[Desire Android Development] John Drake:
RC5: Notes on the change log

I've been testing RC5, and it has worked quite well for me so far.

- I did a full wipe before installing.

- I'm still using the old n1 partition table. (No, you don't need the Oxygen HBoot.)

- I don't have an EXT partition.

As such, I appreciate this newly added feature (from the change log):

Using this judiciously (no widgets/services to SD) still allows me to free up a good amount of internal memory.

I'm also quite happy that the following has made it into RC5:

I have not yet tweaked the backlight settings, but others have posted recommended values in this forum. This is something which I will continue to try out and test.

Hm... I did notice some initial weirdness with this. Several downloads hung, and I had to repeat the download several times before the apps installed. The system had added several download*.apk files to the root of the SD card (which I later deleted).

I wonder if this change has anything to do with users reporting missing files on the root of their SD cards? At any rate, my files are all intact, and my latest market downloads have functioned flawlessly.

I also wonder why this change seems to bother so many people:

The low-rez graphics aren't that bad, are they? Anyway, using Zeam, I never noticed any lag that would disturb me, neither in RC4 nor RC5.

Cheers. Hope this helps.
[Desire Android Development] dafunky:
"Implemeted ability to move any app to SD-FAT via applications menu"
