New to Android, not to XDA though..

Lee,

Thank you for a detailed , well written explanations, and FAQ portion. Your 1.5 code is my first Android flash, and I had to go with S-OFF and rooting the phone. Worked nice.

As stated- noob with Android, and learn on the go. I am not new to the forum, and I do read a lot before I post (hence so little posts in so much time on the forum) . However, I have a 16G SD card I have partitioned myself on a PC to have 2G of EXT3. After flashing your 1.5 I did not see APP2SD on the phone and have added it. However, there are very few apps I have installed after flashing, that can be moved to SD. Is there away for me to see the content of the 2G EXT3 ? Astro shows only the 12G of FAT32 , obviously..

Yet again - phone works great, and set CPU kicks ass.. I have also changed to the recommended radio, and will see if there is a difference in battery life, reception, etc. The original 1.32 that the phone came with had superb battery life but reception was not something to write home about.. I am ion AT&T and in the office building I am most of the day, until Friday reception was extremely bad. I wonder how it will be with the new radio you recommended..
[Desire HD Android Development] KamikaZeeFu:
The regular a2sd (from market) is not needed anymore when you have the a2sd+ script running. The apps are stored on a hidden partition (ext3) on the sd, but the phone still thinks they are on the internal memory. What the regular a2sd now does is move them from the hidden partition to the sd again (for apps that support froyo ie regular a2sd).

So actually froyo a2sd is wasting space...

To check how much of your ext3 a2sd is used open titanium backup, it shows you the size and used space of your ext3.
[Desire HD Android Development] pinn___________:
You work at Orange in Darlo by any chance?
[Desire HD Android Development] Tantin:
I'm just wondering: How much apps must you have installed to actually need a2sd?

Or is there any other advantage to it?
[Desire HD Android Development] A5J4DX:
i too have this problem lee, i woke up played on phone wifi facebook etc and my phone just totally lagged out it was basically so slow it was frozen i had to wait like 15secs to just swipe through i restarted the phone still some small lags and now i thought id check on system panel and cpu is 100% wtf why is this only mod i got is the circle battery icon
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
indeed the unlock screen changed. i had a different one with 1.4.1 and i liked by far more than this one.

i also heavaly prefered the animations in 1.4.1. no offense but i really hate this new ones. worst i've seen :(

oh, and i think i found some problems with the 02dalvik script. it does not seem well written. if i find item i digg deeper into it. but no wodner it caused so many problems.

regarding smartass, you said something about it scales down when screen off, so no setcpu profile needed. did i understood this right? smartass locks your speed to the lowest on screen off? if so i don't like this. this sould be something optional, optional setting with e.g. setcpu.

could you pls share with us how smartass is scheduling? so we better know what we get and how to adapt with otehr tools for our special needs.

@A5J4DX :

did you used youtube? i mean watched a youtube video?

I have a question. Which folder in the framework-res.apk contains the values for auto-brightness?
[Desire HD Android Development] cqf66:
@LEE

1.40 no A2SD not in rom

1.4.1 no A2SD by titanium backup

flash to 1.5 and its back again on titanium backup with 575 mb...

NON A2SD solve not the problem

Apps Download Issues

Hi Lee, I got an issue here.. I cannot download apps, it says "application not installed" when I tried to install.
[Desire HD Android Development] taiji_khan:
I've the same problem, I can't install Apps anymore. I can DL the apps but if I want to run the installation, the phone can freeze or reboot or stay on the installation bar doing anything :confused:

Edit : I also have somtimes this message "The file package is incorrect"
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
install the non-app2sd patch addon. there is a heavy bug in 1.5 at least for people that don't use app2sd on ext partition.
[Desire HD Android Development] malte41:
i got some weird probs. installed 1.5 and cant install any apps. so i wiped cache. dont work. same problem. then i want to go back to 1.4. restore my last nandroid. now the phone hangs at the white htc screen. tried all... restore again...factory reset... format cache. nothing helps... still stuck at the htc screen.

what can i do?
[Desire HD Android Development] Mogster:
I've been getting an odd issue after flashing 1.5.0. Everything seemed to work fine except for Tweetdeck and Weatherbug, which forced closed as soon as they were opened. I figured I'd try wiping the Dalvik cache, but after that the phone rebooted to the stock android lock screen, instead of the Sense one. Unlocking the phone resulted in a new prompt to allow Google location services, before dumping me on a black screen with the status bar and nothing else. Trying to reboot to recovery or shut the phone down from here just resulted in a crash and reboot.

I tried a full wipe after this, and re-downloaded all my apps. Tweetdeck and Weatherbug both worked correctly at this point, so all seemed well. I rebooted to recovery to clear my battery stats though, and after that the force close issue came back. I tried clearing the Dalvik cache again, and I ended up with exactly the same stock lock screen problem, followed by the black screen with status bar. Arrgh!

I'm restoring to pre-Dalvik wipe backup as we speak, but I was wondering if anyone has a solution for this?

Thanks!

Sms notification sound issue?

Anyone having problems where when you define a custom tone to the sms notification, it still plays the default one? That's the problem I've got.

There must be an error in the mod, the process "android system" is "framework-res.apk" << this being the only part that is modified when applying the circled battery mod... nice battery icon and you can watch it go down faster than it should :p

Since i have ext3 and A2SD+ running fine what affect will installing 1.5.1 have?Will i need to install an A2SD add-on?
[Desire HD Android Development] KamikaZeeFu:
You need to decompile the framework. res/values/arrays.xml controls the brightness levels AFAIK.
[Desire HD Android Development] malte41:
ok... will flash 1.5 and the a2sd patch..... hope that helps... need my phone soon :-|
[Desire HD Android Development] cqf66:
allready done and its the same.... ever with full wipe etc etc....

i flash 1.5 restart and then flash non a2sd and then its the same a2sd is still there with 575 mb

what i have not done is ...flash 1,5 and flash non and then restart

could this help?

[Desire HD Android Development] LeeDroid:
I have never touched the on-screen, I'm now wondering if you are referring to the default Android one? You will automatically get this if you remove "htclockscreen.apk".

The dalvik to sd script had been around a long time, written by technologist and Paul obrien, I'm looking into darktremours version.

Smqrtass details are in the 1st post, the govenor scales the CPU speed based on CPU demand, once CPU usage is at 90% it will step up to the required amount, if demand is below 30% it will scale down. when the screen is off it scales between 245 - 536mhz < this being the max allowed frequency ;)

I have pasted my modified CPU freq table in post 2

Sent from my LeeDrOiD loaded HTC Desire HD using my thumb....
[Desire HD Android Development] LeeDroid:
Yes, that's the best way to do it, but if an ext partition exists it will still recognise it, doesn't mean it will use it, if there is no partition then the app telling you there is is looking at the wrong partition.

[Desire HD Android Development] cqf66:
Lee i have test all and ever i have a2sd and my cards have 100000% no partition.

what i have not test is to flash 1.5 and non without restart.

i think i wait for 1.51 at the night lol

ciao

[Desire HD Android Development] ttav:

[Desire HD Android Development] LeeDroid:

Evening

I had issues installing apps from market so I cleared the Dalvik cache but I also without thinking cleared the cache partition (yes i'm an idiot)

Everything seems to be working fine now so I take it I haven't done anything 'wrong' by doing this.

Thanks
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
in 1.4.1 it was a rectangle, now i have a curved thing to drag to unlock. don't ask me if it is sense or android one.

the freq is not my question, but strategy to apply them is my question ;)

anyhow, so smartass does not lock the max speed to something very low with screen off, right?
[Desire HD Android Development] LeeDroid:
Check out the op and flash the patch matey

Sent from my LeeDrOiD loaded HTC Desire HD using my thumb....
[Desire HD Android Development] LeeDroid:
I answered lol, at 90% CPU usage it scales up, in increments of 38400mhz, at 30% CPU usage it scales down in increments of 19200mhz.

Screen off does the same but max speed is capped at 537mhz ;)

If you had a rectangle on the lockscreen it must have come from an "espresso" theme, never been in my builds

I've had this twice now - once on 1.4.1 and again on 1.5.0 - it's Fancy Widget. A reboot sorts it for me. Not quite sure why it happens - it seems to be random.
[Desire HD Android Development] combat goofwing:
lee i want to use UOT to get some fancy status bar ions but i dont want to loose your transitions as there cool, which ones have you used are they an option in UOT
[Desire HD Android Development] leith51:
1.5 works fantastic so why wait?

For all those having problems with a2sd a solution this maybe

Prior to flashing Rom DO NOT USE CW to partition SD card to ext 3 as I found problems with it as well I know its a ballache but try my way

Pull SD card get adaptor plug in to pc copy all files it to separate folder then download mini partitioning tool 5.2 use that to format and create 1gb ext3 and rest as fat32 ( fat32) first then click apply

Then transfer all files back put back in phone flash Rom worked great for me did all this then flash a2sd patch first then Rom market works perfect

Also @lee when's 1.6 going to out Lmao

E=Mc2
[Desire HD Android Development] tmh:
Just use the framework-res.apk from the ROM and the transitions will stay :)
[Desire HD Android Development] LeeDroid:
It's the "fly in" anims mate, never used the uot my self, you could up the framework-res.apk from 1.5.0 and patch it with your uot MODS, just don't modify the animations

Beaten too it :rolleyes:

Ok.. really got to step our out for a while now bbs all

Sent from my LeeDrOiD loaded HTC Desire HD using my thumb....
[Desire HD Android Development] leith51:
Just make your icons mate and upload the framework from the Rom when it asks you to you won't lose anything as its part of the framework that your not changing

Ah well i had absolutely no problems using CW to partition my SD. Guess all the cogs clicked into position:)

[Desire HD Android Development] KamikaZeeFu:
Also depends on the skin you have picked. The default htc skin has it curved, slate, black board and wood have rectangular lockbars (off the standard skins that come with the phone)
[Desire HD Android Development] malte41:
got my phone working with 1.5 finally.... but i had to reinstall all my apps with titanium. weird is that the nandroid backup dont work anymore.
[Desire HD Android Development] ttav:
Not a rom problem. I have the espresso skin and always have the rectangular bar after flashing Leedroid.
[Desire HD Android Development] dnlilas:
So if I schedule Titanium Backup job which occurs during screen off usually, I will get poor performance (long backup time)? (this is what I observed).

Nah,not me - my brother works there tho so he may do

An odd thing I just noticed: I flashed 1.5.0 on top of 1.4.1 without full wipe and everything is working fine, but when I check /data/app, I see several of my apps are there twice, for example "rommanager.apk" and "rommanager-1.apk" - they're only listed once in the app drawer though. What's causing this and should I be worried?
[Desire HD Android Development] LeeDroid:
The -1 -2 etc usually denominates an update, although the previous one should be removed

[Desire HD Android Development] tmh:
That's what I was thinking too, as there are double AdFree apk's for example and I don't remember seeing an update of it...

Anyway, it's pretty simple trial and error to find out which can be deleted and which can't lol
[Desire HD Android Development] LeeDroid:
Yes mate, in a previous build they all had the -1 tag

[Desire HD Android Development] Mogster:
Thanks for the help! I decided to try the opposite though and just make myself an Ext3 partition on the SD card, as even if I don't use it it should at least stop this sort of problem happening again! It didn't seem to make a difference at first, but after re-flashing the ROM and wiping the Dalvik cache it's all working perfectly.

Anyway, teething troubles aside the ROM's as great as ever. :)
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
you are right. i forgot that i switched the skin on 1.4.1 befor i switched to launcher pro plus.
[Desire HD Android Development] A5J4DX:
i doubt its because of that

so your basically saying the framework-res.apk i extracted out of 1.5.0 and used at uot is actually wrong?

Hey guys,

I made a flashable zip for someone which includes stock icons, stock animations, and stock auto-brightness values. Thought that maybe some of you guys here might want to try it. Linked below :D
[Desire HD Android Development] adam7:
thanks for the quick reply:D

So can you please tell me how can i solve it:confused:

thank you:)
[Desire HD Android Development] tmh:
Something is indeed up - if you watch a video (or do anything that involves the "media volume") and then go to your sound settings afterwards, ring volume, notification volume etc., will be set to same low level you just adjusted your media to. This issue was not present in 1.4.1, not for me at least :(
[Desire HD Android Development] tmh:
Until it's solved in Clockwork, there's nothing you can do about it :)
[Desire HD Android Development] Acaelus:
Been finding the auto-brightness is set too low for me, so thanks! :)
[Desire HD Android Development] ttav:
Doesn`t affect me.Checked sound settings and only media changed.
[Desire HD Android Development] tmh:
Yes, only media is changed in the slider-bar thingy, but try switching your ring tone, sms tone etc. - the audio "preview" is as low as the media is set...

Edit: Even more strange, it seems the actual audio will still be at the correct level, just the preview is low. Is that really done on purpose? I thought it was supposed to preview the tone at the set volume?

a question what happens if my ext3 partition on the sd card is full does the rest go back into the phones memory or do i get problems...do i have to repartition it and make it bigger?
[Desire HD Android Development] Japanation:
Hey I'm not sure I'm I'm stupid somehow but I formatted my sd to have an ext3 partition and did a factory reset. The rom installed fine and titanium backup installed stuff correctly but whenever I try to install a program it says I have no space

Was the rom supposed to automatically install A2SD or was I supposed to do it manually somehow.

Tried that and my notifications are at the set value. Don`t trust me as i`ve been listening to Jeff Beck Live at Ronnie Scotts on headphones.:D

Here is a framework-res.apk from the Liam Steers theme, modified to include Leedroid brightness levels. Its for those who want the notifcation power widgets while keeping the lower brightness.
[Desire HD Android Development] makbil:
This is not the case with me. With the default values I get around 1800 in Quadrant but when I crank up the CPU to 1.4 GHz, I get around 2200.

Leaving aside the figures, the phone is quite responsive and haven't noticed any sign of the "lag" introduced in 1.72.

Now I just have to install tun.ko, get openvpn working and get rid of the animations and it will be the best ROM yet for DHD.
[Desire HD Android Development] ttav:
It`s ok he sorted it out. Now getting respectable figures in all benchmarks.

yeah true, but with performance selected i should have reached around 50. In any case i solved the problem mate. Had to select auto-detect speeds.
