Darn that's great... it's not that great for me. With JuiceDefender and SetCPU set to Smartass, it went from 60% to 19% overnight!!! Of course the Battery stats say that Display accounts for 58% while last unplugged, so maybe it was something that kept the screen turning on (???!), but during day, too, it seems to come down pretty fast... :(
[Desire HD Android Development] descenpet:
it is a known issue with CWM.

with stock recovery, if you off phone and charge, it will show some charging animation. that is part of stock recovery. now that you have CWM and stock recovery is no longer there, it will just load up CWM instead.

i still don't understand why ppl need to switch off their phones to charge though. :confused:

I too had an issue with battery drain when I first upgraded to 2.0.8 from 2.0.6. It was something to do with my CPU locking at 122mhz when I looked at info in SetCPU.

I fixed it by doing a full wipe includind 'Data' and re-flashing 2.0.8 again.
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
From what version of CM have you copied the APN settings?

Correct. Just put HTCLockScreen.apk inside.

I went from 2.0.7 did a upgrade wipe, flashed 2.0.8 and everything is working great. Got 2267 and 2312 points in quadrant. Remeber this is not a good way to messure the UI. Just a small indication of it´s preformance :D
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
No, it doesn't work with APN.
[Desire HD Android Development] descenpet:
talk about APNs,

- Restored original apns-conf.xml file

this line in changelog means empty apns-conf.xml in 2.0.8 is intended where the one in 2.0.7 have load of APNs?
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
Yes, originally the APN list is empty with only entries to create a fake provider. After that all APN settings should be downloaded automatically. This is how it works with WWE RUU.
[Desire HD Android Development] descenpet:
auto download? from where? sounds interesting..
[Desire HD Android Development] marshy73:
Mike

I copied HtcLockscreen.apk into system/app.

Shut down and bootup.

It still shows the default android lockscreen "swipe to unlock" instead of HTC.

Any thoughts?
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
Put the HtcLockscreen.apk in your adb.exe folder, open terminal (cmd), go to your adb.exe directory and type:

adb shell

su

adb push HtcLockscreen.apk system/app

adb reboot

Done.
[Desire HD Android Development] adjeh:
Install HtcLockscreen.apk

I use to have the same problem. Mike told me to push HtcLockscreen.apk with ADB.

Oops mike was already there sorry!
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
I don't know mate. But on official ROM (WWE 1.72.405.3 RUU) it works. And apns-conf.xml in my ROM is from this RUU. In next version I can restore extended apns-conf.xml but I wonder if it's necessary.

Check the setcpu settings. I had the same score after flashing 2.0.8 and setcpu was at 800/conservative instead of 1ghz/smartest.
[Desire HD Android Development] Limerick_fr:
Did you remove any .apk's ?
[Desire HD Android Development] krakout:
When I got my T-mob branded phone I had to create the APN entries manually. It drove me crazy because under WinMo I never had to do this, and I thought that the mobile was locked to T-mobile! Talking about lots of frustration...

But after flashing this ROM (2.07) I was very pleasantly surprised to see that all the settings were there... :)
[Desire HD Android Development] marshy73:
How is this method different from using Root Explorer? Cos that's what i usef to extract the file from 208 ROM and paste it into system/app.
[Desire HD Android Development] descenpet:
is that operator dependent? mine didn't work when i started using yours around 2.0.3 or 2.0.4. those are 1.72.405.3 based too right? i didn't wipe since then so my manual setting survived. not sure if it makes difference between 2.0.7 and 2.0.8.
[Desire HD Android Development] bratboo:
Thanks it works! I was connected via USB >.>

Solved already! Thanks!

Got 2 questions though;

1. Cannot sync via htc sync? Should I re install my HTC Sync?

2. Do I really need to use a Task Killer? Coz someone said that its not needed as when the apps are not used it goes to sleep and doesn't use that much battery and also it was bad for Android system.?

Thanks all! :p
[Desire HD Android Development] preacher65:
Slightly off topic, but - this helped me figure out a battery drain problem I had a couple of weeks ago.

Install Battery History from the Market (or Spare Parts, battery history is included in that). Leave your phone off charge, and on standby for a while, perferably overnight. Then go into Battery History and in the top drop down list select Partial Wake Usage. It will show a screen like the one attached, anything with a long bar is probably keeping the phone awake and using more battery than it should do. For me, I had Titanium Backup scheduled to run overnight, and it wasn't closing down properly when it finished. So even in standby TB was still using power and draining the battery.

This may not work for you, but it might be worth a try.

Thanks mike for yet another great rom - It's so snappy :-).

For those of us who had no freeze problems before (CPU's which tolerated the lower voltage table), is it possible to revert to the lower voltages as on the earlier OCUV kernels?

I was going to make a backup of /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/vdd_levels before upgrading, as referenced in an earlier post, but the file didn't, and doesn't exist.

Cheers!

I can confirm the above aswell. Great find. Issue only present in landscape with controls on the right. STRANGE!

Those apps are included in the ROM.

Also, if you flasjed without wiping then you will just "upgrade" the ROM and still have all the apps installed.

Great job mike!

I did a full wipe / clean install of 2.0.8 and all is fine...

No reboots, no lag when exiting YT and great batterylife :)

Thnx!

Sent from my DHD
[Desire HD Android Development] CitizenLee:
Updated last night and loving it so far!

I do now have the YT issue though, which is odd as on 2.0.7 with OC it was fine. I did uninstall it first but I'm not worried as I barely use YT and pressing Pause isn't really any extra hassle if I do decide to use it. I might try a full wipe to test if it will work but for now I'll leave it.

Apart from that eveything seems to be working great. It was a bit laggy at first but now after clearing SetCPU data and a few reboots it seems to have settled down and it nice and fast.

I do notice battery drain is up to around 1% per hour on standby with 3G on, compared to around 0.5% on 2.0.6 with default kernal (2.0.7 was similar to 2.0.8 in this respect). Currentwidget says 5mA on wake now, whereas on old set-up it was around 1 - 2mA on wake. I'll keep an eye on it over the next few days to see it if gets any better after a few charge cycles.

My SetCPU settings for anyone interested: On-demand 1014/245 with a screen-off profile of 460/245 priority 50.

Very nice work again Mike!
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
You need to do full wipe to get rid of those apps or remove them manually. Actually Adobe Reader was never in my ROM so probably you downloaded it. 2.0.8 is the fist ROM with Adobe Reader newest version.
[Desire HD Android Development] Limerick_fr:
Yes Mike, I also have the YT issue.

The way to get it is :

- read any video in landscape

- tap on back arrow while reading video.

Then it's like a 50 mhz CPU is running on DHD until reboot (which takes a loooong time).

Is it what you tested yesterday ?
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
I'm doing exackly the same thing and no problems. Also many people reported that they don't have YT issue as well. But also many people reported that they have this issue. So as I wrote yesterday - it's a lotter for the moment. You can see my YT video in the changelog and it shows that YT is working perfect on my device.
[Desire HD Android Development] krakout:
Cheers mate, gonna give this a try for sure :) As I said, I figured something may have been keeping it up...

Oops sorry, didn't see your video... :o

You can find YouTube in the Google Apps packages here:

today i update from 2.0.6 to 2.0.8 without full wipe. rom works perfectly. and no YouTube issue. Thanks
[Desire HD Android Development] Tantin:
Did you try to open another yt video, press pause and go back again? Works for me and is way more faster + convenient than a reboot.
[Desire HD Android Development] pudman:
I think its still recommended yes. The custom kernel gives you undervolting plus overclocking. It also gives you the smartass governor though I've not yet worked out whether to use this or ondfemand. Different people seem to use either. You can still underclock to save battery on the default kernel - just set up your profiles for screen off etc.
[Desire HD Android Development] RushaPoiL:
Mike and others YT bug free, did you try both side of landscape?

It has been reported than there is bug in one side and not on the other.
[Desire HD Android Development] Tantin:
auto brightness values

Something different: I requested an adjustment for auto brightness values and searched the thread for now. It requires a lot of testing mike posted a couple of days ago, which makes a lot of sense. So don't bother you're investing more than enough time already. ;)

But then again: LeeDroid has the values adjusted and it seemed pretty decent to me. I'm not asking you to take them over in your next release mike, but does somebody know how to do it in general? I'd give it a try and implement it for just me (if it's not too complicated - I have like almost now experience in coding ;) )

Especially at night the auto brightness is a pain in the ass. I'm sitting in an almost dark room with just my desk lamp on and the screen still won't go down to 0%. It's not only a waist of juice, but it also hurts in the eyes.

Mike Awesome work again

Dont have any bugs (atleast I am not finding any till now) :)

U rock man!!!
[Desire HD Android Development] preacher65:
I've been experimenting with this: I copied the values from here into the default framework-res.apk from 2.0.8. I'm currently testing them.

I only finished it this morning, and had intended to test for a few days. But if you're feeling brave and want to try them, I'll attach links to flashable zips. Please make sure you backup using ROM Manager or ClockWorkMod first, as this is my first time editing framework-res.apk! It's a simple change so hopefully it's fine, and my phone hasn't crashed yet. :D But if it causes you problems, flash the default version back or restore from your backup.

Note this is the stock theme, so you'll lose any modifications to the notification bar (and it may not work at all if you have the notif bar power toggles).

Sweet!

I'm off to flash them. I'll report any bugs and stuff!
[Desire HD Android Development] gregf:
I confirm same YT issue. But I can live without YT.

Plus the sms notification problem where you only see a new sms when you open the messages. Never had this before.... I think.
[Desire HD Android Development] CitizenLee:
Tested and I can confirm that too... problem appears to be landscape only.

No problems when using Back from portrait mode.

If the problem is specific to screen orientation would that not mean it might have something to do with the auto-rotate feature and / or proximity sensor?
[Desire HD Android Development] CitizenLee:
Well done mate! Can I ask what files you changed?

For those of us who like to mod their own framework ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] preacher65:
It's arrays.xml in res/values. I decompiled in APK Manager (using APKtool 1.3.1 not 1.3.2, thanks Mike) and looked at these sections:

config_autoBrightnessLevels
config_autoBrightnessLcdBacklightValues
config_autoBrightnessLcdBacklightValuesUp
config_autoBrightnessLcdBacklightValuesDown
config_autoBrightnessButtonBacklightValues
config_autoBrightnessKeyboardBacklightValues

I blatantly stole the actual values from the framework-res.apk in this post. Credit goes to EnF70 for this post and Lee for the original info.

To be honest I've been using Tasker to adjust brightness levels recently, so I'm finding it hard to tell how much difference the new autobrightness settings actually make. I'll think I'll need to flash back and forth between the two versions to get a better idea. :D
[Desire HD Android Development] Restorer:
I also have Youtube problem. First video plays OK but when I close to go back phone goes into super slow motion and only reboot will cure. I did a Full Wipe from 2.0.7.

Also My Locations widget does not work properlyanymore and the Navigation button is greyed out in the Car Panel. I think I may be responsible for this as, before flash, I deleted everything from sdcard\.data\navigator as according to chkdsk this was the culprit for my ongoing mount problems. I have tried reinstall location and make sure gps is working properly. Although the GPS signal comes on and is working correctly in other apps, the widget says "Map data unavailable" and when i press it it comes up with a map of Taiwan!!

Does anyone know another way of wiping everything and starting it again?

[Desire HD Android Development] kalagas:
Hey guys...

I own an HTC Desire HD for about 1 month now.

As you can see in my signature i owned a Milestone before and i have made a theme for it...

Now for 3 weeks (there are too many apps in system/app) i have tried and finally manage to bring my Mixed_Theme to HTC Desire HD community.

The first ROM i tried was mike's Android Revolution HD and i am very satisfied, so the Mixed_Theme i made is for his ROM but as the other developers don't make tricks with com.htc.resources.apk and framework-res.apk (such as britness etc.) it should work on ANY 1.72 DHD based ROM...

So HERE is my Mixed_Theme for anyone who wants to try...

Please read also where i give my thanks...

If you have any suggestions please let me know....

I have also modified all original tones, alarms, notifications and ringtones and i increased their volume, as many users complaining that they don't hear their phone when it rings. You can download from the bottom of my thread....

@mike

if you like my work feel free to add my Mixed_Theme to your second post...

Youtube problem is present here too.

Went from 2.0.7 to 2.0.8. Did a full wipe and applied the no-sense-patch. People with sense, do they have it too? I installed ADW, and set my cpu and stuff.

No a big problem though.

Btw mike, loving this ROM :D
[Desire HD Android Development] CitizenLee:

[Desire HD Android Development] LittleMerc:
Hey thanks Mike, 2.0.8 is working great... And I am so glad I have a better CPU than others as I flashed Buzz's OC kernel to 1.51Ghz and not freeze no reboot till now, just that the back of the phone gets quite hot when it really runs on that speed. Thanks again and beer will be there soon (waiting for my credit card to be delivered to my doorstep)

It wasn't really bothering me, but I was getting the YouTube freezing on landscape problem. I downloaded this older version of YouTube (2.0.26 from CM6 HDPI Google Apps 20101114) and it seems fine now.

Not a fix, really, and I don't think it even helps towards finding one. But I've attached the APK in case anyone wants to try it.

Edit: worked the first time, not working now. :( Will test more thoroughly next time! Sorry - don't bother downloading this one.

Sorry for noob question. The webkit browser suck memory a lot, is there any way to increase the cache size for it ? In setting there is maximum 6mb for cache and it's too small. I don't want to restart the phone after exiting from the webkit browser.
[Desire HD Android Development] CitizenLee:
Ok, I'll give that one a miss for now.

Lets try these...

I think the one from eViL-QnD-MIUI-1_1_14-r4 ROM was added to fix a similar problem.

EDIT: com.google.android.youtube (from eViL-QnD-MIUI-1_1_14-r4 ROM).apk seems to work, it's old though! I think I had a newer one on my Hero! Doesn't even have portrait mode! Still, you can press back without any problems. Tested on 3 different videos. Got loads of work to do so I'll try the others later.
[Desire HD Android Development] dnbcat:
and what for the other two?:)
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
lol no problem mate. Actually it has nothing to do with ROM but it's your right to think something different :)
[Desire HD Android Development] CitizenLee:
Just from different sources for the purposes of testing ;)

Feel free to try and report back if they work.

See the edit to my original post - one of them does work.

let me give this YT problem a whack... did you guys del youtube before flashing? :rolleyes:

Is it just the app you guys are having problem with? Does the YT videos work if you go to youtube.com in your browser with mobil view enabled, do you still get the problem?
[Desire HD Android Development] CitizenLee:
Yeah, I did delete YT before flashing 2.0.8 and it worked in portrait but not landscape.

See my post a page back. YT v 1.6.21 works great... it's just a little dated looking compared to what you will be used to.
[Desire HD Android Development] singingshiver:

[Desire HD Android Development] Beamen1:

[Desire HD Android Development] bucksbunny:
Youtube

Hai.

I am on 2.0.6 with stock kernel and want to update to 2.0.8.

It says on page 1 that you have to uninstall YT, and regular uninstall does not work so I installed Titanium Backup, installed the busybox and then tried to uninstall YT by pressing the icon and dragging it to the trashcan.

(in the guide it says there will be an option to force uninstall, but this option never appeared at my phone)

It does not work. I once got an error (can not uninstall) and after that it only removes the shortcut.

Anyone has any idea?
[Desire HD Android Development] singingshiver:
Nope. App causes lag when back button pressed, when in landscape with controls to the right.
