You can download the one from seo's thread because I got pore connection now and I'm not sure if I will be able to re-upload it today.
[Desire HD Android Development] Maxolomeus:
funny guy,

it's not like flashing Mike's ROM is difficult in anyway and if it does not work three times after a full wipe with the ROM an there is a "flashing successfully" everytime, so what could I do better? Your turn...

@Mike

I'll try this one if there's any data to delete!
[Desire HD Android Development] jonata:
ok, flash zip from seo's ...

any problem with 5.16 ?

tks
[Desire HD Android Development] marcbsmoove:
I did flash the zip. I'm asking how do you change the fonts on your phone after you flash. I'm sure there's more than just one font.
[Desire HD Android Development] malikjc:
Thanks for the test :)

Maybe I'll try my luck with another wipe...

mike, SEO released version v0.8 which is 3 times smaller size (~28MB)
[Desire HD Android Development] bengal92:
Well, i've just updated all my themes, changing update-script from ext3 to ext4 ...

and I've downloaded your ext4 formatting script too

Ready, steady .... ;-)

Have you been testing ext4 performances for your ROM? Did you notice real performances for I/O?
[Desire HD Android Development] Restorer:
Not trying to be funny my friend. Just trying to point out the fault lies with what you are doing and not with a ROM that is working just fine for thousands of others!

Also worth remebering market servers are not the most reliable :D.
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
Also make sure you removed formatting cache partition command.
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
I know, uploading to the second post right now :)
[Desire HD Android Development] adjeh:
Flash again with default font. You can find it on page 1.
[Desire HD Android Development] bengal92:
Sure mate, I noticed that change in no-sense .14

And the delete-recursive bootcache too ...

Just for my comprehension: why did you remove these cache format commands? What's the difference with actual ext3 thing?
[Desire HD Android Development] preacher65:
It's just one font, Segoe from Windows Phone. There's a normal version and a bold one, both renamed to DroidSans so they replace the standard font.

There's also one in the zip called Clockopia, but it's the same font as well - as far as I know, it replaces the one used in the AOSP Android lockscreen, and only takes effect if you remove the HTC Lockscreen.
[Desire HD Android Development] Rolando88:
Whats the name of the app to check battery drain?
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
Because there is some trick that must be done to format cache partition as EXT4. Once cache partition is formatted in EXT4 there is no need to format it with every theme or mod. I will include formatting cache partition as EXT4 in my ROM and that's 100% enough :)
[Desire HD Android Development] Maxolomeus:
oh come on...

Try to show me my mistake and we can discuss the point. As I said:

totally formatted DHD with the correct and working ROM. Even if thousands of User are happy (like me for instance for a long time) there are bugs out there you can't imagine.. ;)

@Mike

I cleared the data, but it didn't solve the problem. Could it has to be with the version of the market for example? I'll will try some other things tomorrow.

Can I do more than format everything what's possible in recovery mode to prepare my DHD for a new ROM?
[Desire HD Android Development] Nubzori:
Go to: Settings - About Phone - Battery - Battery Usage and there you can see it :)

[Desire HD Android Development] bengal92:
Ok, perfect.

Anyway, you are the master / wizard !

Once, I'd like to know how I could try to be useful to Revolution team ...
[Desire HD Android Development] Darkseth:
Do we need to use Full Wipe 1.4 then, before we Flash the next 5.1.7? Or does the Rom formats the partition to ext4 on itself?
[Desire HD Android Development] Restorer:
ROFL - and with an attidude like that you are going to find lots of people here who will help you :rolleyes:.

Mike maybe has the time for you but I don't so go troll somewhere else!
[Desire HD Android Development] preacher65:
From the first post, in bright red letters:

2. For best performance it's recommended to format data partition as EXT4 as well.

Special script for formatting data partition before flashing ROM is in the download section.

3. Do not use any kind of wiping tools 1.3, 1.4 or any else. ROM will do all for you.
[Desire HD Android Development] bengal92:
ROM wipes itself (system, cache, dalvik, ...). But you need specific script for data (1st post) ...
[Desire HD Android Development] sunshine4u:
hey i installed this rom yesterday but my phone is unable to connect in mass storage/ data transfer mod nor it didnt asked me which connection i want to chose while connecting it with PC.. i have changed from settings the default connection as disk drive but nothing happened any solution of this problem any one else face this issue ?
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
I never had a problem with mass storage. Try re-flashing the ROM.
[Desire HD Android Development] bengal92:
I had the problem once: it came from the cable (a 1.2 euro cable bought on ebay ...)

Try another one ...

"HTC Weather Wallpaper has stopped unexpectedly. Please tell HTC about this problem. To help HTC improve HTC Weather Wallpaper, select "Tell HTC" to send an error to HTC."

Im on 5.1.6 and I have never experienced this problem on my DHD before.

Thanks for your help in advance!

[Desire HD Android Development] SkOOrA:
Just because I thought that it might be related to ROM but it isn't.

[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
Thanks mate ;) Much appreciated!

BTW I hope you've seen weather in the second post already updated? I was able to do it when I saw the package size decreased.
[Desire HD Android Development] vicedens2002:

[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:

BTW changelog changed with speed fix for 3rd party drawers :)
[Desire HD Android Development] Shidapu:
Do I really need to download all mods. Can't I just mount everything before flashing in cwm?.. with the ones from official thread about kingdom launcher..
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
No, because I've changed more things then just mounting method. You will get error in recovery flashing old file :)
[Desire HD Android Development] jonata:

[Desire HD Android Development] fotone:

[Desire HD Android Development] Shidapu:
Will flashing revolution theme still work, or will it need updating?
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
Probably you can :) I think it was only me adding cache formatting command to packages. But to 100% sure check the updater-script, post it here and I'll tell you :)
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
I don't know the updater-script of this theme. Can you post its content here?
[Desire HD Android Development] preacher65:
I've just been looking at these. I think all he_stheone64's updater-scripts are based on the amend2edify converter tool's syntax. I noticed that it mounts /cache but doesn't do anything to it.

ui_print("Script generated by amend2edify v1.0.0.9.");
ui_print("***********************************************");
ui_print("Performing Update...");
ui_print("Mounting mount points...");
run_program("/sbin/mount", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p25", "/system");
run_program("/sbin/mount", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p26", "/data");
run_program("/sbin/mount", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p27", "/cache");
run_program("/sbin/mount","/sdcard");
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
show_progress(0.2, 50);
set_perm_recursive(0, 0, 0755, 0644, "system/app");
show_progress(0.2, 60);
package_extract_dir("data", "/data");
package_extract_dir("sdcard", "/sdcard");
show_progress(0.3, 80);
ui_print("Unmounting mount points...");
run_program("/sbin/umount", "/system");
run_program("/sbin/umount", "/data");
run_program("/sbin/umount", "/cache");
run_program("/sbin/umount", "/sdcard");
ui_print("Update Complete.");
[Desire HD Android Development] fotone:
Thanks Mike.

:)
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
This is my proposition:

ui_print("Script generated by amend2edify v1.0.0.9.");
ui_print("***********************************************");
ui_print("Performing Update...");
ui_print("Mounting mount points...");
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p25", "/system");
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p26", "/data");
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
package_extract_dir("data", "/data");
package_extract_dir("sdcard", "/sdcard");
show_progress(0.3, 80);
ui_print("Unmounting mount points...");
unmount("/data");
unmount("/system");
ui_print("Update Complete.");

But it's just how I will do it ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] preacher65:
Thanks! Is sdcard already mounted by CWM or does it not need to be?

BTW I checked how UOT kitchen handles it, they use a similar method which is (for example):

run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/data");
package_extract_dir("data", "/data");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/data");

So it's not specifying ext3 or ext4, I guess that should work, or would you need to mount partitions in CWM first?
[Desire HD Android Development] t3rm3y:
New to dhd roms. Opted for arhd as was told how similar it is to stock Rom,just tidied up and faster. I'm on arhd 5.1.4,and just read that in .6 two way recording was removed as caused high batt drain-is this only if I have a recording app? Or is it draining batt anyway?
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
SDcard doesn't need to be mounted because it's mounted already. You flash ROM from it, right? :)

I think busybox method should work good for the rest. But mounting cache partition is 100% unnecessary.
[Desire HD Android Development] preacher65:
Oh yeah. :o Can we just forget I asked that? ;)

I thought the UOT method with busybox mount looked like it would work, thought I'd check it out though before the new ext4 ROM is released, while I was grabbing a bootanimation anyway. It's bound to get asked.

Thanks Mike. :)
[Desire HD Android Development] no_johnr:
Been using my phone rather heavy tonight. OMG it's fast - BLAZING! And I didn't even wipe from 5.1.4. AMAZING!

Battery is great. Lasted 10h normal use (only down to approx 75%) and another 3-4h of YouTube and games! Was 28% left when I put in it the charger.

Mike: Feel free to use my feedback in 1st post if you want some fresh comments.

Edit: 1h charge (wall); 25% --> 80% while using it constantly ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] jolaren:

[Desire HD Android Development] no_johnr:

Any help would be appreciated! Thanks.

Sorry if I'm completely stupid, but I have to ask: is GPS issue fixed in latest versions? I've been using Revolution Beta 4, and I couldn't get my GPS to work.. And I see no point in switching to this release if GPS is tricky too..

Perhaps flashing stock update would help with the problem? Is the RRU uploaded somewhere?

Thanx guys, I am a total noob when it comes to Android :/
[Desire HD Android Development] jolaren:

[Desire HD Android Development] eisteh:

[Desire HD Android Development] Cristianop:
hey I would like to know if it would be possible to integrate in this rom the (3d) app drawer of stock Gingerbread? or if there is smth flashable to make it work like that.

I could switch to launcherPro (which has this feature for example) but i dont wanna miss HTC Sense.

Hi Mike,

I have been looking around to see if I could add core FLAC support to the ROM, but it seems it has to be done before it is complied (not sure on the process here). Can this been cooked into the ROM in during future updates? I have found a website while searching that appears to contain the necessary files needed to add it in, but not being familiar with the source I can't say for sure.

Never did before, it should have no effect on battery as all it basically does is remove a limit from the database.

@Mike, you kept that one quiet ;) Just love to tease dont you...:p
[Desire HD Android Development] dynezxice:
Question of the night! Anyone tried the I/O performance patch and doesn't mind giving feedback? What exactly does it do by removing a limit from the database?
[Desire HD Android Development] chunk1982:
Install 5.1.6 the day it was released then I went away for few days so forgive me for not reading over 100 pages lol all working slick apart from couple issues so again if they already been mentionedthen I'm sorry

Issue 1 when ever I restart my phone my brightness is always on full even tho its set manually to around 30% toggle autobrightness on then off again and all is good

Issue 2 WiFi signal is quite low at far end of my house never used to be and enabling maximum performance makes no difference

Issue 3 I think is mod related but not 100% sure again if my WiFi on and I restart my phone it won't connect but like brightness I just need to toggle off and on and all is good

Battery drain seems ok'ish but then again I have thrashed my phone while iv been away lol

many thanks yet again mike for a puka Rom as my issues ain't hard to work around lol
[Desire HD Android Development] descenpet:
it happens to me most of the time... even on my previous phone.. but it does stay on sometimes..

my other issue with mobile internet is randomly it will get stuck in 3G with very slow response or timeouts instead of going H. signal is at full :confused: it started happened few months back in 3.x.x times.. tried different radios and rils, make no difference. strange thing is for past few weeks i sometimes get 3G/H in an underground tunnel where i used to get G or lost signal in the past.. so everything is just my provider screwing me?

[Desire HD Android Development] Dude360:
With my (quite limited) knowledge of SQL:

SQL handles the databases of the phone. SQL has limitations on how much it can do at one time (I/O). This is to ensure there is no data corruption and keeps things running smoothly.

By using the patch you remove this limit, taking the 'stabilizers off' so to speak, and allows 'faster' reads and writes to the database.

Now, in theory, this should make certain actions faster as your Android has tons of databases it reads and writes to. In reality though you will only really notice it when performing certain big actions.

Eg, SMS Messages Database (real world example)

5000+ SMS Restore using SMS B&R with 'check for duplicates' (SMS B&R writes directly to the SMS database reading from a .xml.):

Without I/O patch - 5-7hrs (sometimes longer, usually an overnight job)

With I/O patch - 1-2hrs (cup of coffee and some lunch)

SMS Restore without 'check for duplicates':

Without I/O patch - 15-30mins

With I/O patch - 5mins

While this is happening, if you then try and do other database related stuff it will take a lot longer due to the limitations in place.

Now this patch also has consequences, certain apps may rely on this limit and cause errors. Titanium Backup was one of the main ones in Froyo, backups made before the patch would sometimes get corrupted if restored after the patch.

Hence the 'Use it at own risk' tag ;)

Basically, if you dont know what effects it will have on you, you most likely wont need or find much use for it.

Its not going to suddenly make your phone feel like its on speed but you may notice subtle improvements here and there.

Search this thread for 'performance patch' ad youll find loads of posts regarding the froyo one :)
[Desire HD Android Development] rica2000:
Even though I've been warned it wouldnt't work I just tried to merge weather, lockscreen and usb in one zip, flashed it and everything was ok.

I just copied system folder from each mod in Patrics83's cleaner script.

What I did was Full wipe, flash ARHD 5.1.6 and then, without a reboot, I flashed the zip. Everything went fine, no FC's or missing shortcuts on the lockscreen.

Maybe I just got lucky but I'll try it again with the new mods when 5.1.7 comes.
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
In most cases there will be no issues at all... But I cant be 100% sure about it so that's why I wrote that warning in my thread.

I also remade a HTC SetupWizard that allows you to apply Framework-res.apk

(First flash ROM - My cleaner script - Reboot - Setup Phone - flash the moddified HTC setupwizard remover and modd adder)

PM me if you are intrested.
[Desire HD Android Development] solid.snake:
Yes it does work for me (1.5.6)

You should have a folder called "voice" at the root of you SDCARD.

Did you also check if you gave root access to the call recorder ??

EDIT : it finally doesn't as it is. I was still in 5.1.4 in my mind.
[Desire HD Android Development] Dude360:
Thats good to know. It might have been the versions out at the time I tried as others where having similar troubles. The shortcuts disappearing seem to be the biggest.

Will have a play again soon though as Id like to get something definitive down in writing.

Well, nice to know!

But you say this patch would delete the amximum SQL requests in concurrence ...

Maybe one "safier" way to have better performance would be to change this value with a higher one, no?

In fact, when I used it on Froyo, I really felt some differences, specifically in SMS apps, Titanium Backup, SMS B&R, and some other apps ... it ws really smoother some times ...
