My Desire stuck at the splash screen when i reboot my phone. The phone already turned off before this, because I'm in emergency, so i tried to reboot. After charging back my phone, it still stuck at splash screen. I suspect this is the ROM issue, I have not face this problem on other ROM. Please help!

Oxygen backlight compared to opendesire 4.0.37 is very buggy.

Who used opendesire will know what i`m talking about.

Is it a known bug of GB or is it a bug of Oxygen?

Have to say that opendesire 4.0.37 is the best. Why Adam couldn`t make opendesire mod with gingerbread?
[Desire Android Development] suiller:
no... not possible, or here we ALL should encounter the same issue

instead 90% perhaps more of us don't have troubles

even if not "required" is highly recommended to use hboot oxygen partitioning

even if not "required" in case of issues/reboots/FC/etc... is highly recommended to deactivate all magic stuffs such as over/downclocker, 3rd part magic scripts, task killers, etc...

if still you have reboots/FC simply start from scratch... I mean wipe everything (cache, dalvik, data, battery stats, everything!) + format SD & don't restore from backup, reinstall app from market & check if the rom stays stable

if still didn't work last stage is to try starting from the beginning of "rooting", reflash bootloader, hroot, recovery then reinstall

hi guys,

Just moved from WM (Touch Diamond) to my first Droid and this is the ROM I've decided to flash! So far very happy with it, but I got a few newbie questions ...

- I was surprised to see when the email application download emails, every email it downloads is marked as 'unread', regardless if the email is read or not on the server ... is there a fix for that? this is pretty annoying. I am thinking I have new emails all the times, turns out I've read them already but they're just new to the phone

- The email app also doesn't seem to have a way of syncing other folders on the server other than the inbox. When i click on "Folders" i can see other folders exist, but they're empty and I can't find a way to sync them ... am i missing something?

- i will have to somehow sync the phone up with OUtlook on my office computer. What is the best program for syncing with outlook? I know HTC sync can do that, and goggle itself has an app too.

I formated my memory card because I had ext3 partition. I used function in phone, under storage. It succesfully removed ext3 partition, and now I have 9mb/s write speed, that's preety fast right? Using class4 card sandisk
[Desire Android Development] DigitalDesireHD:
Odd question but I'm a noob lol. If I upgrade my memory card to a bigger one will all my flashing stuff be still on my phone e.g the unrevoked stuff and oxygen or.would I have to go through all that again?
[Desire Android Development] SimonVT:
Root, rom, etc is on your phone, not on your memory card.

If you use an ext partition you will have to copy the content of it to your new SD-card. This can be easily done by doing a nandroid backup, partition your new SD card, and then restoring your nandroid backup (remember nandroid is saved on your SD, so copy it from the old card to the new before you try to restore).
[Desire Android Development] :
If you want the equivalent Gingerbread ROM to OpenDesire, download the CM7 nightlies.

[Desire Android Development] CrazyCypher:
this is more of a question than help... it hasn't hindered my phone from flashing ROM's or its performance but its been bothering me a bit. when i'm flashing a new ROM i always clear cache and wipe data. and just for good measure i also go into wiping dalvik cache. the error i see says

"E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk1p2"

"(File exists)"

just wondering if this is a problem and if there is a remedy to fix. it still gives me the option to wipe dalvik cache and it completes it but i'm just wondering if its completely wiping dalvik cache.
[Desire Android Development] tshyong:
How am I going to this since it stuck in the splash screen? hope you can help, thanks
[Desire Android Development] :
The information is all out there, on XDA and all over Google.

You need to search for it.

Just now installed 32.54 radio, still my wifi reception is very low.

Procedure followed to install the radio.

1. I have latest clockwork which does not allow flashing using updater script.

2. Using rom manager downloaded STD clockwork. I think it is 2.5.0.1

3. Boot into recovery and install downloaded recovery which not permanent. Then install the radio. It really worked.

Note. I have default mtd if you have smaller cache then you need to use fastboot method.

[Desire Android Development] Benee:
Hey Zappza.

Thanks for the report. Without great possibilities to look in the kgsl/gpu driver I could think of 'gpu+' mods. Will look deeper in it when I get to my PC. Hope I can fix this, but I don't know a way how to repoduce this. Maybe it is a very rare, random issue.

My battery life very bad after using oxygen rom. I had had open desire ROM before. Now i have about 40 percent less battery life. Somebody else have this problem?
[Desire Android Development] Noiz:
I've had quite the opposite experience. Using all the same apps as before I'm seeing far better battery life with Oxygen.

I have an odd question... Using AppBrain it tells me there's an update for the Zeam Launcher but the Market itself doesn't seem to recognise it as installed. If I try to upgrade it am I likely to break anything? I have S-OFF.
[Desire Android Development] vnvman:
Nope. In the worse case you'll end having 2 copies of the same app. But if you have s-off then removing the old one first won't cost you much :)
[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
I got a notice of the market that there updates available. Zeam was in the list too.

If you don't uninstall it first then you will get an option "Remove Updates" in the "Settings - Application"-view of Zeam. So it seems that apps located in /data/app are of higher priority when you launch them.
[Desire Android Development] olisun39:
I have experienced it...

Previously I was using Defrost 6.0e and battery life was much better...

Having said that, the iterface of this ROM is amazing...
[Desire Android Development] ouglouck:
Same here, Copilot is working just fine for me.
[Desire Android Development] busterleguster:
Thanks for a great rom, coming from OD you can tell it has the same feeling of trusty quality to it :)

Had a short fling with S-murphy's MUIU which is great performancewise (same or slightly above O2) with some nifty features, but FC'ed a lot eventually, probably due to too many chefs involved. So, back on track with Adam G :cool:

One minor feature request:

The FX render widget in OD was great for toogling "reading mode", for reading pdf's. Either an option to ad fx render to the power control widget or a separate widget as in OD would be really useful.

(will add a request).

Cheers
[Desire Android Development] poppycrumbs:
Not a bug but more of a feature request.

I was wondering if there could be an option to hide/unhide the Carrier Names from the Notification Panel header & Lockscreen.

OpenDesire has CyanogenMod Settings in which 2 portions contained settings where the Carrier Names can be shown/hidden.

Somehow I have 2 Carrier Names displayed and I rather show only 1 or none. If power controls come in, then it's gonna take up some space.
[Desire Android Development] scienty:
Can some body confirm the wifi reception of oxygen compared to sense rom? I used to get 2 or 3 bars with sense but now only one. I tried all possible radios and ril, no difference
[Desire Android Development] :
Well, try harder then.

All you need to do is get into recovery and from there you will be able to reflash the ROM and perform a wipe or flash a different ROM.

If you aren't capable of doing that, you shouldn't be rooting, using custom ROMs or posting in the developer forums in my opinion.
[Desire Android Development] :
I don't think the signal is any weaker, I just think it shows less bars in GB for some reason.

But yes, I have also noticed it, but it doesn't affect the latency or speed.
[Desire Android Development] tshyong:
Well, I know the usual way of getting into the recovery mode, but now I stuck at the splash screen, not the boot animation screen. I have no idea how to get into hboot mode before go through the splash screen. Any idea?
[Desire Android Development] erto90:
quote, but it cause instable connection.. if signal is low ( for gingerbread or for real) it disconnects easily..
[Desire Android Development] scienty:
Even I thought the same. If you see the icon carefully there I'd a dot below which I thought is a first level but when signal is only a dot I can no more connect to net. Does not mean that I don't believe you but this is what I noticed

Not hard, I'm sure you could have managed that all by yourself.
[Desire Android Development] SimonVT:
So holding volume down doesn't work? Could try booting into fastboot, by holding the back button. From there you should be able to go to the bootloader.
[Desire Android Development] scienty:
Hboot comes before recovery. Power off. Hold back key and switch on will take you to hboot. Then press power once. Wait fee seconds. Select recovery using volume button. Press power once. You are in recovery.
[Desire Android Development] boc_est1986:
have you change your regulatory domain to 14 in the advanced wifi settings, this gave me much better results
[Desire Android Development] :
Have a look and see if there is a ticket open on the Android issue tracker for it.
[Desire Android Development] walkerx:
And if that don't work use fastboot to reboot into recovery - remember if you've got past the initial splash screen then you haven't bricked your phone and should still be able to get into hboot or recovery - infact you should still be able to get into hboot/recovery if stuck on the initial splash screen as well
[Desire Android Development] scienty:
Nope. I read channel 6 falls in the middle and has better bandwidth. I tested with net stumblers. There is no overlapping in my place
[Desire Android Development] scienty:
I am just wondering as I don't see any splash screen before hboot. As soon as I hold back and power by the time my screen lights up I am in hboot.

can't the wifi "issue" kernel or build.prop related?
[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
You should not compare the connection of a laptop with your desire. The laptop will always get better results as it uses more power for the wifi ;)
[Desire Android Development] desireboss:
Try modifying build.prop in the system folder. Set the wifi.supplicant_scan_interval to 120 or above. Default with Oxygen is 15. This helped my wifi connection drop outs so maybe it can help you too? Someone else mentioned this helping their wifi problems earlier on in the thread so maybe its worth trying?
[Desire Android Development] Ignore.z:
@AdamG

maybe it was somewere, but can u make an option to chenge led light color to something else (not only green or orange)? i think it will be nice
[Desire Android Development] scienty:
Yeah, I completely agree with you. My point was to say, I am really facing wifi issue with oxygen(may not be oxygen issue though) compared to sense rom.

Just to mention, my network(GSM) reception is much better than before. I used to have one/two bar less with sense but now it shows full. I was literally irritated by jitterey calls in my home. now no need to get out of the house to take calls.
[Desire Android Development] erto90:
that was my idea.. so you reported that has helped,right?
[Desire Android Development] scienty:
let me give a try and report back. Thank you.
[Desire Android Development] masterludo:
Before I file a bug report, does anyone have the same problem as I do?

=> I get a GPS fix fairly quickly using Maps or GPS status, but when the screen goes off (I let it like a minute off) the fix gets lost and needs a couple seconds to be found again. This is kind of problematic if you're using Navigation but turn the screen off to spare battery life. Any idea?

My radio is currently 32.54.00.32U_5.14.05.17

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] desireboss:
It definately helped my wifi stability, and also I read that adjusting this means a bigger interval between wifi scans which is better for battery life anyway, so I think its a good idea to change it :)
[Desire Android Development] scienty:
+1

It really worked. Can you please explain how it matters? it seems to be some scan interval. I saw in my dd-wrt, the signal strength is better there too.

Does it affect the battery or it improves?
[Desire Android Development] desireboss:
Not sure how it works but maybe it is throttling the wifi in some way with a low value of 15?

Anyway maybe this is something that the developer could add a setting for in the Oxygen Settings menu?
[Desire Android Development] erto90:
it should also improve a little battery life

the explanation,as i think is: with a minor scan interval,you have more possibility to get a bad signal strenght also caused ( maybe ) by a greater amount of resource...increasing scan interval maintains more stable and ( maybe ) strenght signal

I don't know if it's the real explanation,but it seems to works

I suggest to set it to 150
[Desire Android Development] scienty:
Anyway it works. Should we ask our devs to correct this issue in code?
[Desire Android Development] :
Why don't you report the issue to the AOSP issue tracker? It's already been reported in the Oxygen issue tracker: http://code.google.com/p/oxygen-rom/issues/detail?id=453

That so called fix might 'work' but it means you would have to wait a lot longer for the list of networks to refresh, so it is a poor 'fix'.
[Desire Android Development] erto90:
After some tests the best value is 360

Try yourself about stability,it works very good for me

feedback are welcome

i will share soon ( when complete and tested ) a modified build.prop with some customizazion
[Desire Android Development] SimonVT:
3 people with an issue != rom bug
[Desire Android Development] desireboss:
It would be a poor "fix" just to provide a higher value by default. However if this was something that was adjustable by the user as a new setting in the oxygen settings or main settings that would be sufficient. It would mean that the interval can be changed if necessary easily without having to modify the build.prop manually.
[Desire Android Development] CrazyCypher:
I tried that "fix" and it's true, it is a bit more stable, but it affects every program that auto updates, like weather and mail...
[Desire Android Development] :
Oh yeah, it'll bugger up the wifi network location too.

I think it breaks more than it is worth.

I don't think Adam should waste his time adding toggles in for that tbh.
[Desire Android Development] scienty:
My view. Let's not make it a Tom with tons of options which ultimately create confusion. These are one time feature hence should be embedded in rom. May be an option to customize at the time of installation.
[Desire Android Development] erto90:
I suggest to try the best compromise for yourself! my compromise in set to 360 and all works great as before

these values are used in ms so the time is very very low.. 360ms are 0.36s 1/3 of 1 sec,so changment are really poor, but you gain in stability!
[Desire Android Development] scienty:
Thanks. I will try this value tomorrow.
[Desire Android Development] :
Um, no, the values are in seconds. Not milliseconds. :rolleyes:
[Desire Android Development] desireboss:
I am interested to know how this effects other programs exactly? I have found no adverse effects when modifying this value.
[Desire Android Development] erto90:
are you sure of this? all value i saw in these settings are in milliseconds

first to "launch" this "fix" i've checked a lot of sense rom ( official and not, that are very stable in wifi) and all have a range of 80-360.

if it is really in seconds sound very strange,but as suggested, every one should try to find best compromise for esigence..
[Desire Android Development] CrazyCypher:
before it refreshed after 15 sec. Weather updated every 15 sec, mail updated every 15sec, now every 150sec. For mail, that is not good
[Desire Android Development] erto90:
mmm i think is software related too.. i have tried what are you saying but email,if configurated in push,arrives immediately..if configurated to check every 10min they arrive after 10min.. with 360 as value

The software have mayor priority as i saw in every apps

edit: BTW this isn't a real solution,also if it help a lot! infact miui roms uses the value of 15 but they are a very solid wifi connection! can be a gingerbread issue that have to discover the cause?
[Desire Android Development] desireboss:
Why would you want weather to update every 15 seconds?

Anyway

This doesnt affect the rate at which programs "refresh". This is determined by settings within the program itself. The internet connection is always enabled regardless what the wifi supplicant scan interval is set as.
[Desire Android Development] :
Of course. There is absolutely no way, what so ever, that wifi networks would need to be scanned in magnitudes of milliseconds.

http://android.git.eu.kernel.org/?p=device/htc/passion.git;a=blob;f=passion.mk

Checkout the value in there...that is the official Android device vendor for the Nexus One by the way.
[Desire Android Development] erto90:
i saw this too.. but something is changed in gingerbread i think! wifi is a lot less stable than in froyo,eclair etc

So far i'm trying different config and i'm feeling happy with 360..apps are not touched by this cause they follow proprietary setting

of course,rechange it is simple and fast so,where is the problem?
[Desire Android Development] :
Look, I'm not being funny, but I posted what the issue was earlier on. I don't like repeating myself, but I will do so on this occasion so it is nice and clear.

Yes, it is a Gingerbread issue. This issue does not exist in FroYo. It also exists in both 2.6.35.10 and 2.6.37 kernels with the current version of the Broadcom wifi driver.

I also previously suggested that someone search on the AOSP tracker to see if a ticket exists and open one if necessary.
[Desire Android Development] erto90:
infact that's was i imagined! but this " suspicious fix " seems to work so far

when a solution stable and safe will come out, we all will use that!
[Desire Android Development] fourire:
What do you like in this rom? I installed it yesterday and today uninstalled.

Some problems with applications. Slower than Leedroid. my internal memory free was 80 mb in leedroid and oxygen 40 MB??? What's wrong ?

When the official version will be released, I will test again.
[Desire Android Development] :
Nothing is wrong with the ROM. I suspect that the issue lies with the person that is using it.
[Desire Android Development] coutts99:
Pebkac :)
[Desire Android Development] juicebox666:
I love this ROM because it's a clean, stock ASOP build. I think LeeDroid is a Sense ROM so you will probably miss a lot if you're a Sense fan. I'm not sure what app problems you were having, but if they're Sense based apps then they won't work.

I think the change in free memory is the result of moving the dalvik cache back into memory. I changed to a different HBOOT and that makes a big difference. I think you can also move your ext partition to your SD card to free up even more memory.

Not sure why it runs so slow for you. I don't have any complaints. I've never used LeeDroid, although it was almost the first ROM I flashed onto my Desire but chose Oxygen because it didn't require much configuration and I could dump the Sense UI, so I can't really make any comparisons for you.

The best thing is you've got choice. There are a lot of excellent ROMs on xda and you can try them all and figure out which one works for you.

Good luck!
[Desire Android Development] davedes:
Where can I download a downgraded kernel from?
[Desire Android Development] :
Don't waste your time. .37 uses less battery than .35 as a rule.

But if you really want a .35...look in my sig.
[Desire Android Development] jordan.harris01:
_Thalamus, would you say the .37 works better than your .35 875 HAVS kernel? I just flashed that one yesterday. Do you have a link to the .37 ones? I don't see them in your sig.
[Desire Android Development] erto90:
I found 37 kernel better than 35.. battery life depends on background service and the use.. i'm using also juicedefender and it works really great
[Desire Android Development] :
.37 comes with Oxygen RC7 as standard so I don't need to provide any flashable zips.

I can't be bothered providing HAVS kernels as I did with .35 as I don't believe that it makes any difference to the battery life, but it does reduce stability.

The closest one to the RC7 kernel is the one in the testing folder, which I have used for 5 days now.
[Desire Android Development] jordan.harris01:
Ok, I may flash that testable one then since I can't get back to the RC7 verison.
