woops nevermind somehow it successfully worked after trying again. I hope all goes well and this ROM beats leedroid's in terms of performance! :P

thanks so much for the help (:
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
No, that's very strange. Go back to recovery, do factory reset in main menu, then format data and flash my rom once again.
[Desire HD Android Development] bengal92:
Well ... mike would have much better answer than me. But I expect Android to do special "things" at first startup, like dalvik cache generation, zip file extracting for graphics, etc. Maybe there's something like a checksum or a something else for first boot ?

But in fact, it does work this way, otherwise there are bootloops ...

Mike: you have better explanation ??
[Desire HD Android Development] sning:
hi,

just flashed the 3.5 rom and have a slight problem.

my weather wont work, so i was going to flash the zip file thats posted to fix this.

however, i cant get rom manager to reboot for some reason.

i followed the instructions on how to flash the rom (so full wipe, then install) but rom manager still wont play ball with me.

on a related note, i also tried to flash the correct radio, and while it seems to be flashing, when i reboot and check its not the right version.

is there any way of checking that the radio.img file is the correct one?

thanks
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
Check its MD5 checksum mate.
[Desire HD Android Development] Whiskey103:
Well you can't flash a radio.

You need fastboot commands like fastboot flash radio radio.img

[Desire HD Android Development] caanda45:
Been meaning to ask how to do that?
[Desire HD Android Development] Whiskey103:
You can use this. After installing you have to right mouse click on the Rom, then properties, you see a extra tab MD5 now. Or something like that.

Flash the attached file and you will have stock% battery mod. It's taken from Krzysiec thread and it's working with cwm 3.x.x.x.
[Desire HD Android Development] caanda45:
Thanks installed and right click on the zip of the rom file in properties you find "file hashes" and the MD5 sum is in there!!!! Thanks guys always drving me crazy as people have talked about I didn`t know how to do it!! Now i do thanks!!!
[Desire HD Android Development] - sYndrome -:
I have a few minor issues with this ROM:

1. HTC Friendstream widget stopped working (after flashing the mic-fix I think): it won't update and crashes if I select a status message

2. I can't uninstall or upgrade Pyxidis and Angry Birds Seasons (both are installed on SD)

3. I changed the ringtone for notifications (SMS, etc.), however the phone still rings with the default tone.

Note: This is not a complaint, I appreciate the dev's hard work.
[Desire HD Android Development] Euphorie:
Mike will you port Sense 3.0 in your ROMs somewhen later when it is stable?

Maybe as tweak or so?
[Desire HD Android Development] no_johnr:
Will "Add-ons" like this affect performance and/or battery usage in a negative way?

Edit: I guess this is "heavier" images.
[Desire HD Android Development] Dude360:
As far as Im aware, all these mods really boil down to is replacing system images with others. From what Ive gathered with my little understanding of the graphics framework is they have to meet a certain criteria (size, dimensions etc) to be a valid graphic hence they cant be 'heavier' but rather 'different'.

Ive been using RevoHD since ARHD 2.x with a custom kitchedend framework and have yet to see it have any effect on the speed or responsiveness of the phone :D

Id like to find out more why its so important to flash a theme straight away though. Im sure it has something to do with the framework contents as its not just graphics, it contains quite a bit more information.
[Desire HD Android Development] Dude360:
Also, with regards to backing up and restoring, wondering if anyone does it the way I do and also if doing it this way has any downsides?

I quickly flash the rom to check if im in need of any fixes like the weathersync, gps or mic.

Most personal data (not app data or apks) is stored by the big G, contacts, calender etc with all facebook & twitter in the cloud anyway. I then take a second backup of my SMS and call logs using the usual tools and also a backup of any game saves.

The rom states that /data is zip-aligned on boot. So before flashing I use RootEx to copy out all the apks that I usually have to download or install again and save to SD. I then add these directly to the rom zip before flashing so they are added to /data first thing and thus should all be zip-aligned on first boot.

If any fixes are needed then I also add them to the rom zip along with any other mods such as the modified ringtones and also my own ringtones (basically delete and re-add the 'media' folder). I also remove any unwanted stuff which I have narrowed down to not cause me any issues when they are removed.

I then take my theme zip (RevoHD) and add any mods I use such as my custom framework, boot anis & sounds etc. Here I also add the performance patch.

I also do a mega-wipe everytime, no matter what Im doing. Wipe each partition seperately using CWM tools, then both the update zip and the full wipe zip then of course the rom wipes everything as well. Overkill I know.

Once the rom is flashed I skip setup and create a new scene. I delete all the apns and add in my own using the apn tool. Reboot and flash the theme. Run setup then restore SMS & call log.

Its important to note though, I do anything database related AFTER flashing the theme so the performance patch is in place.

Violia! So far I have yet to ever run into a boot loop, WSOD or any other issues at all.

Heres some stats from the last couple of days using 3.3 with the reco radio. Granted not many voice calls were made and no GPS was used. Screen off is around 3-5, everything syncs on the hour, wifi on most of the time with a fully conditioned battery :)

;edit; woah that post came out rather long!, Props to those who read it :P
[Desire HD Android Development] baco200:
mike...?

I use your rom from day 1 its about time to send you a beer.....

But if I want to go back from 3.5 to 3.3 do I have to do a full wipe or can I just flash..??

Had some problems with 3.5 today, could be the rom or radio don´t know.

The rom and radio worked perfect for a week but I started to get some problems with battery drain??

Can I go back without full whipe?
[Desire HD Android Development] krajoksai:
Me too.. I feel 3.5 drains battery more than it did in 3.3

I tried both recommended radio and also the latest one but battery life in 3.3 was better.
[Desire HD Android Development] ruchern:
I'm with you.
[Desire HD Android Development] SiqMawsh:
Hi, I have just flashed this rom and the recommended radio but I am having very slow data speeds, however my wifi speeds are normal, any ideas? Thanks in advance.
[Desire HD Android Development] caanda45:
I am having the same issue, are u on Telus? I am on Rogers and have found that when I do the speed test and change rooms the test results are better. My office is like 1.25mbs down and 1.0 mbs up, in my living room it is 2.69 down and 1.5 up. This is in Winnipeg on Rogers which is a 3.5 G network.

Any one in Canada try this radio and thoughts on it?

Radio_12.48.60.23U_26.08.04.07_M3
[Desire HD Android Development] SiqMawsh:
Yes I am on Telus, and my previous rom had much better data speeds, I'm unsure of the problem but its quite a big problem. I might give that radio a try. On second thought I see that the source is unknown, I'm a little wary to try it unless you have already...
[Desire HD Android Development] Nichie:
been wanting to ask this but keep forgetting...

is the htc wireless hotspot feature working for any of u guys?

cant seem to establish a connection with it on my laptop...
[Desire HD Android Development] :
Works fine for me.
[Desire HD Android Development] Dude360:
Works fine here on 3.3.
[Desire HD Android Development] preacher65:
Woah, that's really... thorough. ;) :D

Interesting though, thanks for posting. Just a couple of comments, all meant helpfully rather than as criticism. :)

Not sure if you know this, but I'm pretty sure the automatic zipalign script in the ROM runs every time the phone boots (check the /data/zipalign.log file), not just on first boot, so you don't really need to manually add the apks back into /data before flashing. I guess it may save time compared to re-installing everything, but doing it from Root Explorer sounds a little too fiddly for me. ;)

Like you, my key data is all in the cloud (contacts, calendar, tasks, etc.) so I only manually backup SMS, call logs and bookmarks. For apps, I use App List Backup, and it prompts me to reinstall all my apps one at a time, directly from the market (or reminds me which I need to manually reinstall). Works well for me, surprisingly quick too, but I guess we all have our preferred methods. :) My main point, though, is that as far as I know the zipalign script in /system/etc/init.d runs every time you boot. Hopefully someone will correct me if that's wrong.

Regarding the wipes, you said you know it's overkill, but I can't help noticing you're wiping the same partitions several times each. It's obvious you know this, so I'm curious as to why you're doing it? ;)

Otherwise what you do sounds broadly similar to my process. Some stuff I manually add to the ROM zip (android.policy.jar from Advanced Power Menu, I'm looking at you). If I'm using a theme (currently Elegant Blues), I may add or remove some things in the theme's zip (delete apps I don't want, drop in my own customised version of the theme's framework). I also have my own version of no-Sense 0.12, with a few small differences from Mike's. Lastly I don't use the performance patch, simply because anything that messes with database write buffers makes me nervous, in case of a sudden power-off (e.g. battery pull). And I find the ROM fast enough without it. :)

Hmm, this post is long too ;) but it's quiet in here so hopefully no-one minds. Always interesting to share info. :)
[Desire HD Android Development] Dude360:
Thats cool if it does, something I will have to have a look into a bit more, still not too clued up on the more low level actions yet. I just read it as it was a one time thing for anything included in the rom.

The adding of the apks all came from the zipalign idea I had in my head at the time, so it became a habit. Ill take a look at the App List tool though, sounds pretty decent. I was using AppBrain before but was flashing so much that it kept wiping my list :s

I dunno exactly. Habit now I guess? I think what happened was back on 2.x before mike included wipe scripts that I must have not wiped and had a few problems before stumbling across the wipe zips. I was also just delving into rom cleaning that lead to sync issues which I had in my head were due to insufficent wipes. And at the time I think there were many posts with mikes answer being "You need to wipe" or "You havnt wiped" it kinda stuck.

Its also a PC thing for me as well, I always quick format before low level when dealing with disks. Meh to Cross Platform habits :)

I was just really lazy and hated having to reboot 4-5 times to get themes and mods all up and running :D As for the performance patch its definitely a personal preference. I dont really notice that much of a difference, if any, during everyday use but with the combination of ext4 and the patch, restoring 5000+ SMS with SMSBackup using 'check for duplicates' takes 1/2hr compared to overnight before!

It does sound like it takes ages and a lot to do to get a rom flashed but in reality its a 10min job pulling apks off and readding etc, especially when youve got a system. The longest thing at the minute is waiting for the kitchen if I need to remod a new framework :)

If one person in droid land takes something from this, my DHD will sleep soundly :D
[Desire HD Android Development] preacher65:
Same here - it worked well at first, but after a while it seemed to decide each new ROM was a new phone and I'd lose my list. :( Still looking for an app that works how AppBrain used to.

LOL, I don't think I've had 5000 SMS ever, let alone recently. :D I'm not part of the SMS generation (i.e. I'm an old fart) and tend to use email for most things. Or, you know, phone people. ;) I can see why it would be useful in that case though! :)
[Desire HD Android Development] Guardroid:
The same for me.
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
Zipalign script runs at every boot checking if there are any new not zipaligned apks.
[Desire HD Android Development] ruchern:
I'm excited about 3.6 already.
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
It's ready, I'm just trying to solve this weather sync issue so that fix wont be needed but it's really strange issue :/
[Desire HD Android Development] caanda45:
If I am understanding this, why don`t you try Titanium Backup (root) for Android backs up and restores all apps in a simple batch mode (paid pro version). The unpaid version does it one at a time. Fast and efficient. Here is a link to a Yank who has a great video on how to use it.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cryu8bFXLJQ
[Desire HD Android Development] oajungen:
If this is the only issue left I can live with it :-) Easily solved with flashing just one zip file.

Thank you for this great ROM. I love it!
[Desire HD Android Development] Dude360:
Cheers, thats good to know. Learn something new everyday :)

I was a fan of it ad went pro when I was first root but over time Ive found it less and less useful :s Little things really, It would restore homescreen widget placements but Id have to manually readd them due to 'problem loading widget' etc

I know some people swear by them but Ive found other ways better suited and more efficient to me. Plus I also ran into a few issues when first using the performance patch and that but I do still use it now and again.

Or just add it to the rom zip before flashing, saves a reboot :D

Im happy with 3.3 for now but will no doubt sit down and play with 3.6. Like the rest of us though Im hanging on for official GB. We all know what a magician mike is with roms (just look at the beta!) so its gonna be an awesome release!
[Desire HD Android Development] Whiskey103:
Damn, that we didn,t think of that :confused: :rolleyes:

Well, dat don,t work mate :)
[Desire HD Android Development] bur2000:
Yes, Titanium is nice but I try to limit backup/restoring to the absolut minimum needed. What's the sense in wiping when you restore lots of stuff later on.

When doing a wipe-upgrade I wipe Data with CWM and let the ROM script take care of the remaining wiping (dalvik is rebuild from scratch anyway when Data gets wiped). As for backup I have no non-market apps anymore - even bought SetCPU recently ;) - and so almost everything gets restored through my Google account.

I have a few apps though where I need the data, for those I use Titanium. It takes only a couple of minutes to rearrange all the apps/widgets on the Desktop and that way you get a really clean new install.
[Desire HD Android Development] chilledrice:
so excited :D
[Desire HD Android Development] jerrylzy:
Your rom is very fast and stable,I always flash your new rom at once.But in 3.5,there is a libasphat.so in system/lib :D ,I don't think it is necessary,because you have already remove the apk. i hope that you can remove it next in 3.6 :D.
[Desire HD Android Development] Dude360:
Really? Sorry, must have missed that part!

Is it just this fix or have I missed something!?

Ditto. Plus if you have something bad like a bug in the backup then its going to follow you around and cause issues on every rom :)

Ive been lucky so far in the apps I use daily have very little to setup and Ive had the same homescreen layouts since the beginning so I know them off by heart :)

Im still dubious about the google backup part, how does G restore them? Does it just load up the market and start installing or does it use something else? Ive never used it.
[Desire HD Android Development] ruchern:
I see. Take your time.
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:

[Desire HD Android Development] broncogr:
whats different in radio?

Isnt it the same version?
[Desire HD Android Development] Eddie1506:

Should be same version according to numbering...

Maybe different packing for the OTA?

hi MIke, a question : now I'm with 1.93 and, when the 2.01 is ready normaly upgrade to it.

my question is this :

need to wipe all or is good the easy upgrade ? (format only boot, system and cache ?)

and the colored theme is good always or need a new version ?

Merry Xmas !!!
[Desire HD Android Development] zoltan78:
Do you have smething more to say ?

If not please do not coment !!!
[Desire HD Android Development] jkoljo:
You have Radio S-OFF, so you can just use stock RUU.
[Desire HD Android Development] zoltan78:
THX for it, but what about the setings and apps, do I have to instal again ?
[Desire HD Android Development] jkoljo:
Yep, you will lose your settings and apps. Use titanium backup to backup them if you want to.
[Desire HD Android Development] zoltan78:
OK thank you for your help. :)

great rom 1st time i have rooted and picked your rom very happy with it (gps issues aside as they aint rom related lol)

i only have 1 issue the weather fix i have tried it and still not getting weather..... anyone any ideas?

or should i just wait till you release your latest 3.6 version today?
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
Well I think it's finally solved with 3.6 we just need to do some more testing before releasing it today :)
[Desire HD Android Development] goofylad:
will just need to wait then............

what do i lose when updating the ROM? just wanna know if its worth while putting stuff on my phone or just leave it standard and wait
[Desire HD Android Development] skyband123:
Guys i really want to download this rom but have a few questions. I'm on CM7 atm and its really good but the camera quality is horrible. If i download this rom without sense do i still get the stock HTC camera? and if i want to use the rom kitchen on the no-sense version do i cook both sense version and no-sense version or just the one i want?

Thanks
[Desire HD Android Development] preacher65:
The no-Sense version should possibly be called "no-Rosie", because the main thing it does is remove the Sense launcher (Rosie) and associated widgets, and adds a port of the stock Gingerbread launcher. It's especially useful for people who use other launchers such as ADW or Launcher Pro, because all that Rosie stuff isn't used anyway. Of course if it was called "no-Rosie" then a lot of people wouldn't know what that meant. ;)

It's a script that you flash after the main ROM, which removes the bits of the standard ARHD ROM that are Rosie related. It leaves most of the Sense apps, including the camera, dialer, contacts, calendar, etc., so you'll still have the HTC camera.

Because it's just a script, this means no-Sense doesn't have its own separate framework, so you can use the framework-res.apk from the main ARHD ROM in the kitchen and it works fine in the no-Sense version.
[Desire HD Android Development] Frostyeo:
