Strange problem

Sometimes my desire runs super stable for some days, but...

I have stability problems, but maybe related with my sdcard.

- Lately I got the 'sdcard was removed' some times without doing anything

- Sometimes I have hangers on startup...battery out and back then restart solves the problem

- Phone stops to react on user input especially when phone calls arrive (pretty annoying, because the phone call continues but I have no key to press to accept or deny :) )

- Sometimes it freezes without any reason ... works and then stop

- very rarely I have force close, especially on google maps and tasker

I assume something (technically) wrong with my sdcard:

SanDisk 32GB Class 4

Big FAT + 1.5GB EXT4 + 0.3GB EXT4 + 0.1 linux swap

My ROM: Alex-V_1.8_387mb_system_d2ext

Hboot: bravo_alphaspl_387-10-40

Radio: 32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.23

So those things related to my sdcard or is it a another problem (sdcard holder not stable?)

any other ideas?

thanks a lot
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
:) ;) :) ;) :)
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
try it with the original card..and see how it goes ;)

and change smartass2 to ondemand....ondemand is much more stable...(i also had one freeze...so i changed it...and now i dont have any prtoblems :) )

The script from the op does not work..so i made a new zip..its a test..its on my roms main site

Not sure if its really working...as we are also unsure that it works on sense 3.5
[Desire Android Development] Dimson75:
Oooh. That's a good thing. Now let's try:):)

Alex! I'm on your link you gave above, made odex cm7r2 rum. Now the system \ app-APK and odex files. And how to do that and would have been framework odex. Or it does not affect the speed?
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
It does not affact speed...

Anyway...im unsure if it work...many people in original thread say it work..
[Desire Android Development] Dimson75:
Now, as rum has become more responsive. I packed all the time, and corrected.

If you look I will be happy

Thanks so much for a great Work!

But...

I flashed to my terminal "Alex-V 1.8 Gingerbread Sense HD cm7r2 S-off - hboot system" and I have a nightmare with Skype... With the oficial version from Market and the mod "Skype_2.7.0.907_v14" Right now i cant even enter in my skype account, each time it seem will start, he say "Please reinstall Skype" in a window, and 2 buttons, install and cancel. What can I do? Im really interested in use Skype with video call!

[Desire Android Development] Denimo:
Sorry if this is already sked, but couldn't really find it in the thread. But, will Titanium Backup work properly when using the int2sd fatsys hboot? (coming from CM7r2).

Thanks in advance!
[Desire Android Development] swemoza:
It should be okay..
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
never used it..but i also think its ok (for be safe...select only apk [NO DATA] )

:)

with kind regards
[Desire Android Development] Denimo:
But it's exactly the data I wan't to restore, like savegames from games and stuff. So that I don't have to play 5 levels all over again :P.

Will give it a try tomorrow though! Thnx.
[Desire Android Development] mistaliu:
Apps, games and their data is usually OK, unless you go from say GB to ICS. It's system apps and data that usually mess things up.
[Desire Android Development] swemoza:
I always restore the apk with data.. Never had a single problem..

Yes, and better not to restore system apps.. :)

Hi alex,

Any news for amaze cam for your hybrid Sense.. :)
[Desire Android Development] rzgomba:
Anyone know how to take an existing kernel and modify it. Would like to take Droidzones #11 kernel and turn 2way off. If not how about a Kernel for dummies.
[Desire Android Development] PlayPetepp:
If you're interested in kernel development, there's a very nice tut by Droidzone here. One more thing, I don't think 2way is on unless you use an app for it. :confused:
[Desire Android Development] rzgomba:
I find any kernel with 2way locks up Bluetooth and sound.
[Desire Android Development] PlayPetepp:
Then you will deffinetly need a kernel without it. :)

-. typewrited .-
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
you can not edit a builded kernel...you can only make one...with the same things in...using eg the patches from github...to build one using the guide from droidzone that playpeep linked (i also make make my kernels with this guide )

Hi, Alex! Tell me please. If I change the folder framework from version 387 to version hboot cm7r2. This starts the system?

Regular between 1200-1500

But i think its no matter what score it gives you...only what you feel ;)
[Desire Android Development] mc62:
Alex you have made a great Rom , fast and stable.

But I am a little problem, when I go to setting - sound - volume I have a force closed.

I'm using cm7 version.

Do you know this problem ?

Sorry for my bad English ;-)

[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
Mmmh..anyway..dont have a problem there...

And you have this on a fresh install..? Without any apps installed..if you got some time..start complete new..flash hboot again..and format the card complete...make the ext4 and flash again...as also no one reported this bug..many people are on that version
[Desire Android Development] mc62:
Yes fresh install.

I will format my card and reinstall the Rom this tomorrow ;)

Desire with S-LCD not booting

Hello guys,

I got a HTC Desire AMOLED by myself and this ROM (cm7r2) works just fine. I've tried to flash this ROM on my friends Desire (with S-LCD) but it is not booting up. Only fatsys one worked but after changing HBOOT to cm7r2 and using the correct ROM it won't boot.

Changing to HBOOT 387 (it was only to flash the HBOOT with AndroidFlasher) I've flashed the correct ROM and I'm still waiting for the phone to boot up.

I wasn't even able to flash other ROMs that were able to boot.

Am I missing something?

EDIT: I also did that wiping stuff and with GPARTED at the moment, I've just resized the SD Card, so that the FAT32 partition can keep the data and created a 1,6 GB EXT4 and a 300MB EXT3.

Cheers

MasterHenky
[Desire Android Development] rzgomba:
Volume setting works for me and I have cm7r2 version.
[Desire Android Development] rzgomba:
I have installed cm7r2 numerous times. For Cm7r2 I have fat32 + 1024 MB of ext4 and formatted through ext4 recovery.
[Desire Android Development] rzgomba:
To set up partitioning your sdcard here is the procedure I used from seb15 and prof peach faq.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/runnymededesire/files/AROME-GUI/4ext_Partition Guide.pdf/download
[Desire Android Development] mistaliu:
If I wanted to change the cm7r2 version from ad2sdx to regular a2sd can I just change the 40a2sd file in the int.d folder?
[Desire Android Development] ckpv5:
@MasterHenky

Maybe you need to flash downgrade hboot first before change of hboot. Go to bootloader and check whether it is really cm7 r2. If not, flash downgrade hboot then only flash cm7r2 or any other hboot
[Desire Android Development] sroy001:
@Alex.. we already have a stable sense 2.1+3.0 rom in your work.. how about something new now? If you were to look in the Dec thred section there are hardly any dev left.. all bit modders .. Please work on a team that's willing to put their expertise on getting a sense 3.6 / 4.0 now.. I know its difficult but I'm sure something new is badly needed in this Desire development thread
[Desire Android Development] MasterHenky:
I did that before but with the FastBoot Commander but it didn't work. I've downgraded it with AndroidFlasher and that worked well. I was also able to successfully flash the 387hboot and flash the specific rom. Everything went good until one thing.

With the (imho unstable) fatsys image, the internal memory on the SLCD Desire was "increased" to the size of the first ext4 partition but now, with the Data2ext rom, it uses the 300MB ext3 partition as internal memory.

I've formatted the card like this:

FAT32+1,5GB EXT4 + 300MB EXT3.

Strange enough, on my AMOLED Desire with cm7r2 image, I've partitioned the card like FAT32+1,5GB EXT3 + 300MB EXT4 and the internal memory was "increased".

I've read that the partitions need to have a specific size (1/3 of first EXT4). Can I not just choose any size for the 1st EXT4 partition between 1 and 2GB and always 300MB for the 2nd EXT3 partition?

EDIT: Nevermind. Since I was lazy I've partitioned the sdcard in the wrong order. I've started with the swap and that became dev/SDA and so on. Everything works fine, great stable rom.

Cheers

Henk
[Desire Android Development] swemoza:
cm7r2 use amarullz script that only use one partition. so your first partition recognize ad internal memory.

On data2ext it use two ext partition.

So the two EXT partition should be the same.

If the first one use ext4 so the second one should bee ext4 too.

I don't know about int2sd but I think it only use one EXT partition.

So make sure you have a proper partition layout.

:)
[Desire Android Development] Denimo:
So what is the best version of this rom to download?

I am getting very confused when figuring everything out in the 1st post of this thread.

There's a 1.8 version for CM7r2, INT2SD and 387 hboot. But where to download them, is not clear. There also being refered to older version so please can someone explain it clearly which I should download. :P

Maybe it's time to clean up the first post oh and update the wiki :P.
[Desire Android Development] howdid:
hey alex :D today i bought a new class 6 sd card, and can finally run your rom , but one thing to add, im currently downloading the 387 hboot version , the 387 hboot link on the first page is really difficult to find and the link don´t works, maybe u add a new link and put the link somewhere more on top :)
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
thx ;)

Hi all, got an odd problem with 1.8 387 hboot version. I had my desire replaced as it went faulty reading SD cards (bad news with this rom!). I nandroided it before it went away and today O2 sent me a new desire. I revolutionaried it and android flashed the downgrader then the 387 hboot and restored my nandroid fine. All working lovely. Then I decided to try a fresh clean install as I wasn't sure about data integrity due to the fault I'd had. SD card partitioned with gparted, 13 GB fat32, 1gb ext4 then another 380MB ext4. Fresh download of 1.8, wiped the phone, installed the rom. All goes well till I reboot at which point it just sits on the boot screen. I let it sit for an hour but it never moves on. Wiped several times, repartitioned card, tried a different card, always with the same results. Ended up restoring the nandroid again which works perfectly.

Anyone got any ideas? Not a massive issue as I have it working with my nandroid but it seems like a weird one.

Booce
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
if you have some time again...look at the logcat...interesting that first boot was ok...second not...but without logcat...its not easy to say anything...
[Desire Android Development] marius.a:
Congratulation. I had same problem 4 years ago...now no time for developing, no time for testing anymore. The new project called 'kid' fill all my free time.again congrats! That's nice!
[Desire Android Development] Denimo:
Thanks for the answering Alex-V!

One more question: is the Expresso Bliss Theme only available for the 387 hboot or will it work with INT2SD too?
[Desire Android Development] rzgomba:
Congrats Alex. Children are a wonderful thing a lot of work but worth it. Cherish the younger years they grow fast.
[Desire Android Development] booce:
Ok Thanks for that Alex. Congrats on the next generation of developer! Can you imagine the hardware s/he will be developing for :)

On looking, I notice that I neglected to update the radio. The handset is on an older one. Could this be the cause do you think? Logcat below. I can't make sense of it :(

Booce

*edit* Further information, 1.7.5 387 hboot version installs perfectly. Now I'm really wtf?
[Desire Android Development] karthikus:
Sorry if its a noob question. Do the CM7 version include any a2sd script ? Please clarify and is it possible to restore the original scroll in rosie? Curse me ! But i feel that scroll is better than the continuous one .
[Desire Android Development] howdid:
the cm7 version has the ap2sdx script ,
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
lol....thx ;) :)

[Desire Android Development] fultotop:
Is it not called HTCTwitter.apk
[Desire Android Development] BashyUK:
There is some lag in 1.3 which is one of the main things Alex has worked on in v1. 4. As it needs full wipe can't do right now am busy.

Alex really has worked a lot with his roms over Xmas which I for one definitely appreciate. I'm glad I have got onto his roms whilst he is so enthusiastic! His output is bordering on Richard Trip proportions which I think he will take as a compliment ;)

Also I have a working notification power mod but will let the dev release it unless he wants me to post it. A very useful mod, to me it's just behind track wake.
[Desire Android Development] sbdags:
I'm on 1gb Ext3 too. Lag for me is worse than 1.3v2. Also had my first FC (never had one on 1.3)

Going to try one last reboot to see if it helps.
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
first thanks fultotop for the tip....

Htc Twitter was on a false folder

Here is a flashable update.zip Now you can see twitter under friendstream...sorry for

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
ok...its the same script only change i made is dalvik to sd because there was a user..he have installed about 210-or 220 apps and have problems with this...also metherlon from data2whatever script will change back to dalvik2sd

give the system 10 min...maybe a task manager auto close...for me its faster...after i restart i open all most used apps like messaging...call list etc. and after that it run very fast

did you see the twitter friendtream update..?

-----------------------------

Next plan is a a2sd+ rom of 1.4 :)

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] sbdags:
Sorry 1.4 is unusable for me. It's jerky on everything and lags badly. Don't give up though Alex - I suggest you install some apps - it seems to get worse the more you install. I have over 200 ........

Thanks man :):):):);)

hope you make your own judgment :p:p

[Desire Android Development] DroidBois:
Alex, I haven't yet jumped on board to your ROM until I can find a stable bug free version (just my personal preference, not a criticism of anyone) but there is not a Wiki yet to explain all this. I notice a lot of your time is taken up responding to questions and making quick fixes. May I suggest we start a Wiki, and move to a stable / development release cycle? I.e. find a stable ROM and stick with it, for a month or even more if that's what it takes, while you focus on the development version. Then people who want stability like me can stick with the certified stable version, even if it's behind, and those who are more brave can go with the development version and help with testing new features. Then a 'testing matrix' can also be developed with a list of things to be tested and certified ok before moving in to the 'stable' version?

This would free up your time considerably as many people would just stick with the stable version and not bother you with so many questions. This would also take quite a bit of pressure off you to release fixes quickly, as those who need stability will not be using the development version, so you can focus your time on deep thought and problem fixing in your own time, rather than responding as quickly as possible.

If someone can help me with identifying a stable version, I am happy to help set up a Wiki with a FAQ like I did with AuraxTSense that worked very well while I was maintaining it and saved a LOT of time from answering repeated questions.

Also then suggest breaking up in to two threads - one for the stable version and one for the development version.

What does everyone think about this?
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
i´m with you in all points (as its on some point´s the same as BashyUK want)

(maybe only not in two threads in the moment...because i have the rom on more sites :) and have many open tabs) but main thread is here

So i think the stable version is still the a2sd+ version (in hd and also non hd) i will load up overnight...and the data2sd as dev version...is it ok for you..?

Many Many thanks for help and tips..and maybe for the wiki

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] DroidBois:
My pleasure. Is there some way to clearly label stable and development versions? The Linux Kernel for example uses even and odd numbers to do this - so say 2.1 is development, 2.2 is stable and so on. That's one suggestion. That way you would not need to maintain two 'branches' and simply update the version number when declared 'stable'.

So there is a 'stable' HD version? I have never used Sense HD and I am surprised this can work on the Desire 'classic' that I have - does it cause any issues? Or is it just a few hacks to 'fit it in'?

I am perfectly happy to stick with app2sd+ if this is tested and stable, and leave other versions to the more brave. One of the reasons I am interested in your ROM is that you seem to be cautious about jamming 'features' in to your ROM just because they are available, as some other ROMs are doing. My phone generally works perfectly for my needs as it is, with expanded internal memory being the main required feature (i.e. app2sd+).
[Desire Android Development] BashyUK:
Great suggestion and goes with what I have said to Alex. More than happy to help with wiki etc. As Alex says, the a2sd script works fine on his roms including hd. The issues mentioned are caused by the data2ext script he is using which is itself in development. I think I'm right in saying that also he is using a hybrid script combined from two different devs, siberes and ownshere? So for me that is definitely a wip rom whilst a2sd is stable.

Just give me a shout and we can get started although I can't promise lots of time but will do my best.
