I am flashing 4EXT Recovery ATM, ill do a repartitioning in my SD Card via this recovery program (its possible right?)

And ill reflash this ROM. I'll keep you posted!

/edit apparently my sd-ext was ext3 and not ext4 would that justify all that lag? (havent repartitioned yet)

/edit2 repartitioned to fat32 7GB and ext4 1GB Shall i reflash rom?

/edit3 i reflashed ROM. Seems a bit faster, minor lag. When flashing thought, it said "cm7 hboot edition" i have never flashed another hboot, its probably stock. :/ what do i do? Will it affect anything?

/edit4 i flashed the cm7r2 hboot, shall i reflash ROM now? ( still experiencing HEAVY lag)

/edit5 reflashed ROM, minor lags. will keep u posted after a couple of days of usage.
[Desire Android Development] philippas:
I tried all of the above. It's faster than before but I have some hardcore lags especially with the telephone calls. Sometimes I cannot hang up. It is still very laggy. Any ideas? P.s. how to check if I flashed the hboot correctly?

Are you using battery savers like JuiceDefender? Got some hard lag when using them and trying to make a phone call. It takes up to 2 minutes for the phone to start the call (and gets repeated if I continue clicking)

Suppose it is connected with the way the connections are changed and maybe some bad way of controlling the kernel in this ROM
[Desire Android Development] philippas:
Nop, im not fond of this type of software. The only battery related software i have installed is the Battery Calibration ( came pre installed)

[Desire Android Development] fred_be9300:
Those are some very slow 4kb writes. Is the card aligned (check it with 4ext info function)... Maybe repartition and reformat. Or try another card
[Desire Android Development] philippas:
Would that justify uber lag when the SD is being used? (As in almost always on int2sd roms?)

With my class 4 16 gb card and int2sd, this rom is flying fast. Try formatting the sd-card.
[Desire Android Development] philippas:
Will do tonight.

[Desire Android Development] philippas:
Reformatted, nothing, random write from 0.005 only goes to 0.007 :/

What Hboot should i have? cm7r2?

Does it make a difference? ( not on the sd speeds, on the rom speeds)
[Desire Android Development] fred_be9300:
Does 4ext indicate that your partitions are aligned? What soft was used to partition the card?

Retry the test with a smaller test size (currently 1000mb, try 50mb or 100)

This might be a limit of the card. The class4 certification only looks at sequential write performance (think photos in a camera) while Android will need more small random writes. (esp in data2sd or in the fatsys hboot)

I would think indeed that this might have impact on your performance. Although with the int2sd, the data is written to internal NAND, so hmmm, that would limit the random small writes to sd-ext.

Can you try with any other card? For a short test, 500mb of sd-ext is enough.
[Desire Android Development] philippas:
I did try with 50mb and those are the results. Not huge differences.

I reformatted the SD and repartioned and I recovered from my tb backup and it looks just a bit faster.

Dear fred_be9300,

some posts up you wrote :

"* the kernel: switched (this morning) to droidzone kernel "2012June18" It seems snappier, but I'm pretty sure that's because the phone just rebooted. Need to give it a few days "

What would you say now, are you still on this this kernel? I am now on Alex-V 04 Kernel did you compare this both kernels?

And my last question witch one do I have to install? KBASE or KMODS: Maby both? I cant find any hint in the readme.txt or comment.txt.

Thank you in advance for you help.

Best regards

Simarilon
[Desire Android Development] fred_be9300:
I am still on that kernel, yeah.

I also installed that "supercharger v6" script, which I think also helped...

Still, there are things that are slow. Eg opening messages (which has some 850 old sms) takes 4-5 seconds to load and display the list on app opening.

Last Sunday, when I went running with Endomondo tracking my path, and a music app in the background, plus GPS status app, it got a bit laggy, with a few skips in music, and especially many times GPS signal lost ... After that I switched that supercharger v6 from 512-multitasking to 512-balanced. It feels better that way, but I have not yet repeated the same running exercise.

Battery is not splendid, but then it never was on stock ROM either. Dunno really if its better or worse. :-/

I have not yet tried Alex kernel 0.4.

All in all it's a nice experience so far, but if the same lag and loss of GPS signal shows up on my next run, I will be tempted to try out a custom sense 1.9 like anderl78's or cool-droid v3

Edit: I used droidzone's base kernel (kbase). The other one is the same plus some kernel modules for extra features (but if you don't need them, no need to install - I am running on smallest possible /system, and in fact didn't need the modules, nor did I have space for them)
[Desire Android Development] simarilon:
Thank you for your answer, learned a lot :)

Until now I have no bad experience with Alex-V 0.4 kernel.. Sometimes some lag... I will try with supercharger v6 script. So far I am satisfied.

I came from Anderl78 ROM. For my device it was very fast but I had a lot of Rosi crashes always after closing a program. So I decide to test Alex-V ROM. A lot of users are very satisfied with Anderls ROM. Maybe it was my Device or SD-Card. On the other hand Anderl stop the developing of his ROM because of a new device...

I don't read Alex-V here for a longer time, someone know if he also stop developing this nive ROM?
[Desire Android Development] booce:
Alex v has sadly moved on after his desire broke. He also has a new member of his real life family to take care of now, so I think development for this Rom is finished. That said, it works perfectly as is and is my wife's daily driver to this day. I only moved on because my Telco have me a desire s. Install it and enjoy it, it's the best balanced Rom for hardware as old as the desire, and I should know,I tried them all. :)

Booce
[Desire Android Development] simarilon:
Thank you booce for the info. Sad.... Our desire is on the way of retire :) All the best developers are on new devices... I test now around 4 days this ROM and I can say it is really good. Everything is working and I have no Rosi crashes until now.
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
:) ;) :)

thx for nice commends :) yeah..my son grow..is now 8 month old...and yes..also have a new phone (one x)...also badneewz and some other are there... had developed a rom...but stop at the moment because of time..

anyway...good to see that this thread is not dead :) thx for.. ;)

with kind regards...Alex
[Desire Android Development] booce:
Hi Alex, good to see you're still around! Congratulations on your son. So how are you finding the one x? I get to upgrade my phone in a couple of months and the one x is on my shortlist. The other contenders are the galaxy s3 or the nexus 4. I'd be interested in your opinion of these devices.

Thanks for the great Rom.

Booce
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
:)

A friend of me have a galaxy 3 so i had compared it with my one x..seems that both phone are similiar good..the friend says..you must know if you want a sense phone or not..display is a bit better on one x ...galaxy s3 have a bit better akku...nexus i cant say...

Anyone got a working link with this?...
[Desire Android Development] gps3dx:
On alex's rom v1.8 (ad2sdx / cm7r2 ) the DSP app ( and functionality ) is not exist.

I've manage to install the apk, But i'm not sure my current "libaudioflinger.so" is working at all with that apk...

alex mention that one of the last updates he made was that he added that DSP function....

i've try to replace the "libaudioflinger.so" to that version but still NOT working at all ( I get freeze after reboot ).

Any ideas how to make that DSP works ?

Is that relevant to v1.8 of alex's rom ?
[Desire Android Development] Malooki:

[Desire Android Development] k3lcior:
Anyone got flashable mod to remove recent apps from dropdown notifications?
[Desire Android Development] fred_be9300:
attached is the SystemUI.apk with NO recent-apps in notifications.

I'm assuming you can push it in place yourself, or learn how to... Where it needs to go (or providing a flashable zip), depends on which variant of the ROM you are running. Normally it goes to /system/app, but in the int2sd version, that's offloaded to /sd-ext/app_s (if I remember well).

The SystemUi.apk is modified from the deodexed version by aardappel12 (higher up this thread)'
[Desire Android Development] stratoll:
i tried this

systemui.apk was in /system/app

I replaced it with the file provided here using es file manager

status bar crashed and an error kept popping up until the screen went blank and didnt come back

i had to take out battery and reinsert it

when phone booted up again recent apps were still there
[Desire Android Development] fred_be9300:
You can't change this in a running system...

Are you s-off? If not, you didn't actually replace anything...

Better do it with adb while in recovery

Edit.

I checked and I use aScreenshot.

It's easy to use and a small program.
[Desire Android Development] stratoll:
didnt think of that

yes i am s-off

no experience with adb shell

but ill give it a shot

also any chance that i can have that pattern lock which wont show up on top off the call screen

its really annoying to have to draw the pattern before you can end a call

i usually let the other person hang up and it ends for me automatically

but some people like my dad never end a call
[Desire Android Development] stratoll:
will this work if i replace the systemui.apk in the flashable zip and then re zip it?
[Desire Android Development] aardappel12:
Don't unzip it, open the zip file and replace it without unpacking and yea, then it should work!
[Desire Android Development] stratoll:
any chance i can do this to a backup and then restore?
[Desire Android Development] torrice:
any upgrade for this rom....maybe a higher sense?
[Desire Android Development] aardappel12:
Not by me, I merely 'updated' Alex' rom so people will be a lil bit more up to date and be able to use it again! I'm not going to be the one to put out an update of this rom, I just tried to help out a little!

[Desire Android Development] eddiehk6:
Neither of these posts let us help you properly...when asking for help you really need to search first (plenty of topics), and then at least give proper details if you still can't solve the problem yourself..

Which version of the Rom did you install?

Have you partitioned your sd card properly?

Whenever diagnosing space problems (or most problems) you can search and learn...in this case what is using your internal space? I'd recommend starting by installing an app like 'diskusage' to see what is using filling your partitions..
[Desire Android Development] swemoza:
Did you have ext partition on sd card? For data2ext you have to create 2 ext partition..

I flashed the INT2SD-S version on my wifes Desire with CM7r2 HBOOT and it's better than ever! 4.2.2 is laggy and unstable no matter what and Sense 3.5 roms are just laggy. Best Android for Desire is undoubtedly 2.3.3. You may be missing some latest security enhancements but that can be replaced with common sense.
[Desire Android Development] ze7zez:
OK, you're right, but Alex-V 1.8 occasionally froze and I had to remove the battery. I have used Alex-V for 8 months.

Currently the 3 months I use the SATTELITE-3.5.Sense and did not have to remove the battery.

Both ROMs have their advantages and disadvantages. Both are delicious.

[Desire Android Development] ze7zez:
I checked on my Desire: links work.

Maybe in your country rapidshare is not available.

I had a lot of ROMs on my Desire. Previously I have used many months Alex-V 1.8, but periodically there have to lose cohesion and crash the system. Latest from almost 9 months I use RSK 8.2 (not 8.3, not 8.3.1) and not exchange it for anything else. It is quite stable and works well in it flawlessly video recording synchronization of audio with video in 720p with H.264 encoder.
[Desire Android Development] stratoll:
ill test it out thanx

although i just installed chromium's 4.4 kitkat so i want to see how that fares for a week or so before i decide to move

but if i do ill check out rsk

[Desire Android Development] stratoll:
I tried doing it while in recovery and I believe I did everything right but the recent apps are still there. Am I doing something wrong?

then exit

and adb push SystemUI.apk

no error
