[Desire HD Android Development] Wlashack:
I am using this ROM from yesterday and at this time must say that it is AWESOME! No critical issues or crashes. Battery life is good,same as stock Sense ROM, maybe little bit better.

Will be next releases more light-weight (eg. HTC Weather, HTC Music etc. etc.)

Bugs: - Gallery 3D, Messaging and Phone is English only, even if phone language is set to another (eg. Czech)

- In Gallery 3D is impossible to send picture via MMS (Messaging). No picture is added and message will be sent as regular SMS. When I add Picture directly in Messaging app, everything is correct.

Thanks and keep the good work!

Was on cyanogenmod beta before but that drains a lot of battery; hopefully this rom can give me the same clean android experience with the custom htc optimizations. Installed this with buzz kernel and will report back soon :)
[Desire HD Android Development] Xeinon:
I'm getting the sync-icon constantly, even when not having it active. Any solution would be appreciated :).
[Desire HD Android Development] Wlashack:
Confirm of constant display of sync icon.
[Desire HD Android Development] PaY87:
Which sync services do you use?

Did you do a full wipe before flashing the ROM?
[Desire HD Android Development] liljom:
check Settings->Accounts and Sync and click on every account, this way you'll see what is syncing.

Facebook syncs a lot for me :/
[Desire HD Android Development] Xeinon:
I did a full wipe when flashing. I've turned off every sync-service but I still get the darn sync icon constantly :). I'll try and see if I can get it to not show.
[Desire HD Android Development] MariusOX:
Pays: Well, I'm back on Sparta now, after test most of the customroms here on XDA. Any news on when the next version will release?=D
[Desire HD Android Development] :
Hi PaY87,

great ROM, very happy with it. Regarding the synch - I believe i have root caused the issue.

There seems to be a little "mismatch" between the htc.calendar.com and the "standard" android.calendar.com. The synch keeps getting "stuck" on the calendars from corporate and google (if you use both like I do). All the rest synchs fine.

I can see that after the intial synchs, the calendar seems to remain "on synch" for a long time. Also when opening the calendar (Calendar.apk), this opens the htc.calendar.com as I can see - not the standard google calendar. Actually I cannot even find the "standard" calendar.

Sometimes i get FCs for Application "calendar" process.com.htc.calendar.

Could you look into it, this is the only reason from preventing it making it my hausundhof ROM :)

Cheers
[Desire HD Android Development] thewhitewizard:
Try removing the facebook for htc sense in accounts and sync settings.

Had the same problem this fixed it....

When I add back the facebook sense account sync icon comes back.....

@PaY87 your ROM is pure Awesomeness.... pushed in BUZZ kernel 1.22 ghz ... DHD is super fast getting 2542 in quadrant and everything feels much much more responsive ....
[Desire HD Android Development] nandihno:
Does this rom include the htc location app?
[Desire HD Android Development] MariusOX:
Okay.

I've been missing Live Wallpapers in this ROM.

So I decided to search around to see if i could find some way to get it.

And i did=D

Download this zip file (also attached) and place it in the root of your SD card (drag it to the card).

Power off your phone.

Boot into recovery mode (press volume down + power).

Choose "- install zip from sdcard"

Choose "- choose zip from sdcard"

Find "LiveWallpaperInnstaller.zip" and hit you power button.

Go to "- Yes - Install LiveWallpaperInnstaller" and hit your power button.

Go back and Reboot your phone=)

[Desire HD Android Development] MariusOX:
Download 1.0.2 from here.

And flash in recovery.

And yes this only flashes the kernel=)
[Desire HD Android Development] crumb_at:
works fine - many thx! :)

[Desire HD Android Development] PaY87:
They will be back in the next release ;)

I don't use the facebook sync. Do you guys with sync problem use facebook sync? I only sync with google and htc here and that works without problems! :)
[Desire HD Android Development] MariusOX:
Are you working on the next one? when will it release?
[Desire HD Android Development] happydan:
Just to confirm I'm also getting the sync icon, but I think it's the calendar that is causing it. If I check all the sync options, the calendar tick box has the little arrow circles all the time.

EDIT: Contacts is spazzing out too. I have HTC Sense sync disabled, and HTC Facebook disabled.
[Desire HD Android Development] gillepy:
I also have a constant sync icon, is there anyway to see what is syncing. i turned off everything in the sync menu and the icon was still there.
[Desire HD Android Development] jolaren:
HTC dialer?
[Desire HD Android Development] gillepy:
syncing problem has disappeared with the latest buzz kernel

Pay is there anyway to get the power control widget from the cyanogen kernel into this ROM?

Would you work on a purist's AOSP ROM in the near future? No HTC Sense at all.. That would be awesome. :)
[Desire HD Android Development] lefty83:
So is there any feedback regarding battery life on this Rom? What about performance?
[Desire HD Android Development] barrycollard:
After trying CyanogenMod and my rooted/s-off version of Sense, Sparta is just what I was after. The blend of vanilla and Sense is great. I used RootExplorer to remove Peep.

Is it possible to remove the new colourful icons for the standard ones? Just a sucker for the old favourites :-D
[Desire HD Android Development] JRShield:
Thanks for this great rom. Adding the 1.2 ghz kernel would be ftw!
[Desire HD Android Development] jonkers71:
Hi all.

Just giving this rom a go for the first time.

I think it could be a good mix between sense and senseless. I liked cyanogenmod but i missed a couple of the sense features.

Anyway. Where is the option to select 2g only. It is late here and i am either tired and cant find it or its just not there. Anyway. hope to hear from you's.
[Desire HD Android Development] jolly79:
Eny updates to this rom, or has the dev left it??
[Desire HD Android Development] JRShield:
I think we can call this dead? To but, cause I'm currently using this excellent rom...
[Desire HD Android Development] gillepy:
Which updates do you want? I've been using the ROM for ages now without any problems. It seems the best stop gap until the aosp battery drain problems are solved.
[Desire HD Android Development] sahirhussain:
any news?

i would love to flash this rom as i hate the sense UI but i would like to know if the developer is working on this rom as this topic hasnt recevived that much attention. are there any issues howsoever trivial? any update?
[Desire HD Android Development] gillepy:
If you don't like the sense UI you could try the no sense version of the android revolution ROM. It looks to be fairly similar to this idea.

Hi.

After my upgrade to android 2.1 my battery starts to decrease rapidly...

i had 52 percent in the night around 11 p.m when i woke up in te morning 7 a.m it was 11 percent..

Is ter a way to improve battery power..?

Is it possible to monitor which app drains te battery power?

Pls do help me..

Thanks
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xateeq:
I had same problem. Try not to charge ur phone via pc to phone usb cable. Try and get a proper wall socket charger. And if u cant then try replacing ur usb cable.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pabling19:
Stop using autokiller apps. If you want to kill apps, do it manually.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smoked33:
I've never had better battery life since the 2.1 upgrade. Here are some suggestions from my experience.

1. Get Juice Defender free from Market, do setup and change nothing.

2. Get Startup Auditor free. Disable face recognition, download manager, google talk service, mediascape update.

3. Get Advanced Task Killer and exclude ATK, Startup Auditor and Juice Defender. Kill everything else whenever you go to lock your phone after doing something.

4. Only use Wifi when you need to, otherwise turn it off, GPS as well.

5. A 3G toggle wouldn't hurt either.

6. Use a wall charger as indicated otherwise if from PC charge in airplane mode.

7. Put your screen brightness below 50%.

8. Widgets like weather apps on your homescreen suck up batt life.

If I get into the 70% range of battery after a day's use now it's rare.

Good luck!
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tony_C:
Try going to SETTINGS, ABOUT PHONE, BATTERY USE.

You will be able to see what the top drains are, I do not use any special apps to limit battery use and get only 4 - 8% drain over night. Leave Bluetooth off and turn off display.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lord Takyon:
Just for the record, juice defender makes no difference to battery life on either of my x10i's since 2.1.

I just trimmed out junk apps and use a task killer to manually kill a few apps I don't often use.

Finally, make sure twitter, facebook, etc are not set to check automatically unless you wish them too. I only check stuff like that a few times a day, no need for them to check x times an hour.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mpasanthosh:
hi...

@Lord Takyon,Tony_C,Smoked33,pabling19,xateeq, thanks for the reply will try out the steps mentioned..
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hillwood:
i at first had poor battery life with the x10 2.1. that was actually when i used task panel x and juice defender on it... after a couple of days, though, i figured screw it and rooted the phone and uninstalled all useless apps on it. then i just went and uninstalled juice defender and task panel x. they actually caused battery drain on my phone lol. now i have no battery saving apps running on my phone and it lasts me at least 18 hours of medium usage.

my advice is let android do the battery saving. don't d/l battery saving apps since they run in the background and cause more battery drain.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] im_iceman:
Yeah - I've been through the whole juice defender, task killer, start up auditor things..... waste of time.. they do more harm than good..

You need to use something like Task Manager (by Rhythm Software) to see what's running - set any persistent tasks/ apps to ignore, and ONLY use it to kill apps which you think are stopping the phone from sleeping..randomly killing things will at best cause your battery to drain quicker (because the processor then has to restart them).. or at worst cause instability because critical tasks aren't running.

Set auto update frequencies to less frequent.. consider how often you view the app during the day and go along those lines.. don't put too many auto updating widgets on your homescreens..

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] scourgedirge:
Hello,

I have recently entered the Android world and see a lot of potential; I hope to do some shade-tree developing soon, but right now I have a (hopefully) easy question.

I rooted my new Epic4G and have been loving Tasker, but I made the mistake of installing Apn-Droid so as to access my data controls. On my phone, Apn-Droid had a power consumption problem, in addition to the fact that it seemingly did not work. So I enabled data then uninstalled it.

NOW, my 3G is always disabled (has a 3G and "D" in the upper bar), but appears to come alive when one of my apps asks for data from the internet (That is the only time I can receive Multimedia messages).

Here is what my APN file looks like:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' standalone='yes' ?>

<apns count="1">

<apn name="Sprint" numeric="310120" mcc="310" mnc="120" apn="Sprint" user="Sprint" server="*" password="*" proxy="null" port="null" mmsproxy="68.28.31.7" mmsport="80" mmsprotocol="null" mmsc="h t t p : / / m m s . s p r i n t p c s . c o m" type="null" />

</apns>

#note - I put the spaces int he sprintaddress above so that I would not violate your new user/links policy.

It looks fine to me, but I wanted to see if you guys could spot what APN-DROID did, or at least tell me whether I should be looking somewhere else for the problem.

Thanks.
[G2 and Desire Z General] AnyDone:
Hey ppl!

Does one know if ROM's are interchangeable between Scandinavian, Germany and other (normal) Desire Z's?

And if they are, how does the keyboard work, like the one where ROM was taken or like it should?

(Keen on changing G2 rom to my Z)
[Epic 4G General] ericizzy1:
this is a question for the people who were able to download and install this. did this rom get rid of the touchscreen lag that the existing froyoDJ29 has?

thansk
[Epic 4G General] jok3sta:
unfortunately mine still has the lag..but someone else claimed the lag is gone..
[Epic 4G General] Noel2255:
So let me get this straight? Flash The rom, through Clockwork. Then Go to odin and flash JUST the modem?
[Epic 4G General] done12many2:
How did you install yours? I wiped and flashed in CWM, keeping the KI18 Baseband and it is absolutely perfect!
[Epic 4G General] lviv73:
Is the rom stable enough for daily use?Is it worth flashing from Syndicate rom?
[Epic 4G General] Noel2255:
I'm wondering the same
[Epic 4G General] jok3sta:
thats how i did mine at first. i tested it that way and with the dk05 modem.. lag either way
[Epic 4G General] jok3sta:
thats what i did

for some maybe but i cant deal with the lag.
[Epic 4G General] bigdbag:
I'm curious about the admin's statement about claims that DK05 bricked some radios. I already flashed DK05... *nervously awaits phone implosion*
[Epic 4G General] spitefulrain:
The DK05 modem can and probably will brick your radio. Not the rom itself.
[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
Even in the worst case scenario, all you would have to do is reflash D118 through Odin, according to the person making the claim that DK05 bricked the radio.
[Epic 4G General] raiderep:
The sad part of this leak is that the original source will likely clam up and not give us any future ones :(

Let's all hope it doesn't get tracked to him for his sake. Very poor judgement releasing this out of what appears to be spite...

sent from an Epic4g through the cosmos
[Epic 4G General] done12many2:
Well I just flashed the modem. No brick. Maybe it's supposed to happen at a certain time. Maybe it was never going to happen. Who knows, but I am starting to believe m0n0p0lykill3r's story a little.
[Epic 4G General] bigdbag:
Ohhhh. WHEW I thought it was a more fatal variety of *bricking*.
[Epic 4G General] imwillzillla:
What's even more sad is all someone had to do was say "We're not releasing it due to testing issues." And not "Not gonna happen" "Ohhh lookie at What I got and you can't have it!" If some simple politeness would have transpired, all of this spiteful rom stealing and spy posting stuff wouldn't have happened.
[Epic 4G General] spitefulrain:
Whosdaman and Firon said it happened over time, not right away.
[Epic 4G General] AndrewZorn:
I have no lag but I've never experienced lag. Someone tell me how to reproduce it and I will try.
[Epic 4G General] done12many2:
I couldn't agree with this statement more. And now that it's out, it's no good? Well, I will continue to use it. If my phone dies I will let you all know.
[Epic 4G General] deciple:
So now that we have it lets start cooking!

Sent from my spot on the earth.
[Epic 4G General] Noel2255:
So we don't have to flash the modem?
[Epic 4G General] gharris040604:
no u dont have to flash the modem but ur gps will stay busted, looks like the bricking issues coming from the new modem
[Epic 4G General] ericizzy1:
SADLY, the screen lag is still there...
[Epic 4G General] Noel2255:
Ehh, I can care less about gps lol. Alright flashing right now.
[Epic 4G General] done12many2:
I seriously think this cat was not supposed to get out of the bag. It did and an immediate allegation was made saying that it will brick the radio. I hope that's not the case, but I will continue to test it. Thus far, I am more than pleased.

GPS readings were done in the office room of our house on the second floor. There is a third floor. I didn't get these types of lock even outside before. Not saying this badboy fixed that, but this is the very first time I've gotten ANYTHING in my house.
[Epic 4G General] Noel2255:
Quick I need help! How do you flash the file through cw? It's not a zip ?
[Epic 4G General] done12many2:
There were two files. One was the .zip and the other a .tar

The one named Froyo.DK05.zip is for CW.

The one named SPH-D700.zImage.stock.tar is for Odin.
[Epic 4G General] AndrewZorn:
I just got a GPS lock, indoors. I've never had a GPS lock indoors before, but I also haven't tried much, and never really had any *practical* GPS problems.
[Epic 4G General] done12many2:
How fast did it lock?
[Epic 4G General] lviv73:
Can someone post flashing instructioms one more time,do we just flash rom regularly in cwr or we need to flash .tar file in odin first?And second question does this rom work with any kernel or we need to flash DI18 first?
[Epic 4G General] dalvarez7:
Odin3 and PIT

What version of Odin3 are you guys using to flash DK05? Do you also have the PIT file?
[Epic 4G General] done12many2:
I just rebooted the phone, walked downstair where it has NEVER worked and grabbed 9 sats in about 4 seconds. It really has improved the GPS. I don't know if this is "FIXED" but it is now as good or better than my EVO at the moment.
[Epic 4G General] done12many2:
.pit file is in the modem zip.

unzip it and you will see both modem and pit files.
[Epic 4G General] dalvarez7:
I have the PIT file, I just didn't realize it was zipped in the tar file.
[Epic 4G General] sbern:
speaking of, does anyone have a di18 modem.bin handy just in case? May end up having to fish it out of the full rom tarball
[Epic 4G General] ptfdmedic:
I am praying right now that that is true cause my modem flash went very bad. When I boot I get a picture of a phone and a computer and it will not go past that. I can get into clockwork and download mode. Gona try flashing stock with odin and will report back. For now DONOT FLASH MODEM.

UPDATE: ODIN finally recovered from brick, I had to use a different version then the one in the sticky.
[Epic 4G General] ericizzy1:
can you at least tell us if 17 got rid of the touchscreen lag?
[Epic 4G General] dalvarez7:
I really never noticed one, so I can't say yes or no for sure. I do know that DK05 had a major bug with QIK killing the camera. The camera had some other FC's too. So there are definite bugs in DK05. So far with DK17, they seem to be fixed. I've only had it for a day now, so I keep you guys posted. I think the offical Froyo should be out around thanksgiving...I hope!!
[Epic 4G General] Firon:
It does not happen immediately. For me, it crashed in a phone call and no amount of rebooting brought it back. Had to reflash the modem to fix it.

But ymmv. The ROM itself is probably just fine to use. The new modem does seem to fix the broken GPS, though, even after a day without reboots.

DK17, huh? :P Can you share, or is it gonna be a repeat of DK05?
[Epic 4G General] beavis4ever:
He was refering to the DK17 in there I believe.
[Epic 4G General] done12many2:
Thanks for the heads up. Just checked my camera and it's perfect front and rear. Never use Qik so no biggie there. I'll keep my EVO on me incase it does go out. So far so good.
[Epic 4G General] vgambit:
I see these posts about DK05 and now DK17, and between news of fixes and all of the other advantages I would get with Froyo, I'm really tempted to update.

Then I think back to the general instability and awful battery life (I would estimate about 6 hours, even with juicedefender) of DJ29, and decide against it until the stable version + source is available. SyndicateRom with the Xtreme kernel can last somewhere in the neighborhood of 40 hours without a charge.

I'm also not a fan of all of this drama I'm seeing all of a sudden. If you have a pre-release rom, and you're allowed to leak it to people who live on the bleeding edge (i.e. xda forum members), then leak it immediately. Otherwise, don't even mention that you have it.
[Epic 4G General] cobradude:
Can you upload version DK17 PLEASE?
[Epic 4G General] sniperkill:
DID YOU GUY'S SEE THE OP??? It has the pit, and modem.bin links right there, and also links everyone with questions on how toflash with ODIN! You guy's should read a little more. READ BEFORE POSTING.. Now, im not trying to be a smart guy, just straight forward.. ;)
[Epic 4G General] AndrewZorn:
Seriously. This is so stupid. I flashed TWICE today because DK05 was fiiiinally out when I got home... and now someone's showing off his copy of DK17. Why? Seriously, WHY. If you are worried about releasing it, you should be worried about talking about it.
[Epic 4G General] lviv73:
Tested froyo and I have to say there is speed and smoothness benefits in some parts and slowdowns and laggin in other parts,it wasnt until I went back to Syndicate I saw how much more polished,lag free and faster Syndicate rom is.

When they polish froyo some more it will be all that,i would say 2.2 is about 80-85 percent finished,so I give it another month before samsung releases it.
[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
That is the problem with this forum. For some reason there are a group of people that take pleasure in pissing off the rest of us by making it clear that THEY have something that WE cannot have. It makes no sense. When everyone asks why this forum is so different from all of the others, just go back and search for the people who are mentioning unreleased secretive roms throughout the forums.

When a Dev gets a leak, one of two things should happen.

A) Keep your mouth shut about it, develop on it so that when the official rom is released you are near ready to go. Maybe give other well known devs a heads up about it so that they can do the same.

B) Inform ALL of XDA that you have received a leak, and give updates on what you have learned about it and what you are doing with it. Possibly open up a small group of beta testers so that they can try it out and get it ready for release, IF you ever intend on releasing it.

Anything other than that is just going to piss people off for no reason.
[Epic 4G General] smoothone:
What are ask these fixes you are talking about? General instability? Awful battery life? The first Froyo leak had been working perfectly for me besides the GPS and the battery life on it is just as good or better than any 2.1 custom rom with custom kernel! I have been using it as a daily rom. Its people like you that scare other people away from using these excellent beta roms.
