Okay I will try it now.

To be rooted, just need to do the Unrevoked method again on the updated rom right?
[Desire General] mikep99:
Yep, you can do that :)
[Desire General] MasDroid:
Yes, or that lol ;)
[Desire General] miniflight:
thanks guys working well so far.
[Desire General] MasDroid:
Ok cool :)
[Desire General] Dainster:
Hi guys, just like the OP I have problems with the latest software version 2.29.405.2. I got this update about 3 days ago, on an unbranded Desire that I bought here in Holland in a package deal at a local KPN/Hi shop.

The device has been working perfectly for the last 1,5 months until I got this update, I am experiencing random crashes and I notice that when I go into Settings -> Applications -> Manage applications and look at the names and sizes of applications, the values of the sizes somehow break during parsing/loading the screen which means it doesn't properly list the sizes of the application after the name of the application. To get an idea there is just numbers there like '10' instead of 10,05KB.

When the phone crashes it just becomes unresponsive and it happens both when in standby and 2 times now during useage whilst going thru menu's and I have to remove the battery to be able to boot again.

My girlfriend has the exact same phone for 5 weeks and also installed the upgrade without any problems, the values in the manage application are still showing okay for her as well after the update so I think her update/software is functioning properly while mine is FUBAR atm.

I have tried resetting the phone to factory defaults 2 times now, without luck.

Any ideas?

Can I just try flashing the phone again with the same software, safely? Since I bought this unbranded and it's a relatively new phone, do I need to mess around with rooting or gold cards? Just seems odd. Thanks for any advice you can give on this.
[Desire General] mikep99:
Ignore
[Desire General] mikep99:
Flash the 2.29.405.2 from shipped roms in fastboot.

It will wipe your phone tho so backup what you need
[Desire General] Dainster:
Doing so as we speak, will let you know outcome soon :)
[Desire General] mikep99:
Good stuff!
[Desire General] Dainster:
Alright, new flash succeeded, I've just reapplied the initial settings.

I'm now going to set it up with some of the stuff I am using there (gmail updates, maps updates, whatsapp messenger) and see if this thing starts crashing on me again. Also going to see when/if the numbers start crunching wrong again in the applications screen.

I was wondering why there is also a RUU 2.29.405.5 released, but I guess I shall be trying that minor update if this one fails...

Will update as soon as I know more. Thanks a lot so far Mike and xdadevs!!
[Desire General] mikep99:
No worries, make sure you keep that RUU safe in case you need it in the future!
[Desire General] Dainster:
Oh boy, just went into my manage apps screen and it's happening again with the numbers not crunching correctly and being displayed in the short format. Weird thing is when I opened it the first time they showed correctly, I then switched to the second tab (accepted apps) saw that those weren't ok, then swapped back to tab downloaded apps and it's messed up too! How can a new version of s/w mess up something that was working!

On the dutch forum tweakers.net where I made a post as well, someone else noticed that the same thing happened to his application screens as well but he doesn't mind (no crashes so far I guess), so it seems it is not just my device.

Overall I feel the device is reacting much faster after the update, almost feels when going into the apps screens that it's loading v fast (too fast) before it can put up the numbers. Maybe it's a hardware problem being exposed by this new software update.
[Desire General] mikep99:
Dunno really, suppose you could try running the 405.5 RUU if you want?
[Desire General] Dainster:
That's what I am going to do, nothing to lose tbh. Will update again on progress..!
[Desire General] Dainster:
I flashed the 405.5 and after the Market update installed itself I am seeing the problem again with the truncated sizes in the app. management section (downloaded apps), on first load of the screen it neatly says 'calculating sizes' and shows correct, when tabbing it starts bugging. Could just be cosmetic with the new software.

I am going to use 405.5 and see if the crashes are still present or not, I am keeping my fingers crossed and will give updates here.
[Desire General] mikep99:
Dunno whether a restet would do any good? In privacy settings.
[Desire General] Dainster:
Nope that doesn't do anything. So far so good, it's been up and running approx 4 hours no crash so far.
[Desire General] Erwin83:
I installed RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed.exe that made everything work again. I did try also to update to ReflexTSenseHD_1.4.1_Sense_DHD_2.2_FRF91_A2SD+.zip but there i had the same issue so went back to the RUU release. Might check the custom roms when i am back from my trip.

But is there a way to easy transfer the application and data? To make it easy switch between roms.

Thanks for the help
[Desire General] mikep99:
I just have a nand backup of each rom which includes all the apps I need.

You can also use titanium which will backup apps and data.
[Desire General] Dainster:
Still no crashes with 405.5 so looking good for now!!
[Desire General] RoryHa:
I too had the same problem with this update... except it seemed every HTC app was crashing.. (Launcher, contacts ...) resulting in a 'force close' loop on startup. after trying numerous things including a hard reset, I just gave in a rooted the phone and installed OpenDesire, all good and running fine now again.
[Desire General] maraschino:
guys, I have a different problem. I've rooted my phone some time ago, today I've upgraded to 2.29.405.2 and my phone wont start any more. it tries to boot, but just keep on rebooting every 15 sec or so.

help please :)
[Desire General] mikep99:
@maraschino, ive replied to your other thread......
[Desire General] Dainster:
Ahem, 405.5 still stable so far (almost 24hours straight) so seems good.

One really odd thing I did notice today is that HTC Sync is in my Downloaded apps tab in Application management. This just doesn't seem right due to it being a system application if you ask me? it even has the 'Remove' button available but I dare not touch that. Ignore that, just me being dumb.
[Desire General] Dainster:
Ok had a crash again just now with 405.5, but at least I have 2 leads to why it might have happened.

- Battery was below 15% or so and I just plugged it onto the USB cable to load.

- Market had an update when I turned it back on (battery remove/replug).

So maybe it has something to do with either the battery or the market crashing my desire?
[Desire HD General] mwatson:
Sometime I look at my phone and the is no service. I go to settings>serach for mobile network and get the message "cannot connect to a network at this time"

I have to reboot the phone to get a signal. Very disappoiting as its primary function is as a phone. This occurs when in a good coverage area.

Anyone else get this message from time to time?
[Desire HD General] guide144:
I got the same problem.... still couldn't find solution yet. However, of you have this problem. You only need to turn airplane mode on and off. No restart needed.

in addition, do you using juice defender or not? Because I think it maybe because of it since I start have this problem few week ago... since I start using this app.
[Desire HD General] mwatson:
Hi, No I don't use juice defender. I've never had a phone do this before. I'm normally on call out in the night for my work, but i'm not confident i'm gonna get the call if its gone into no service. Well, i don't mind... not sure the boss is gonna buy it! :o

Hopefully someone can shine a light?..

[XPERIA X1 Android Development] seandean:
This is the bug fixed version of the “v4a” kernel that should work for all Android distributions for Kovsky (Xperia X1).

Change log:

+ Upgraded to GIT commit e83e7c3fccf8423bd0cf489f852f830ca6e80259

+ Kernel debugging and certain associated options for OS compatibility

Release Notes:

I’m providing two versions of “v4b” for regular and advanced users. At this time the only difference is the keyboard and buttons driver either being build inside the kernel (regular version) or outside in the modules (advanced version). In future versions there may be additional differences, but they will be detailed in my release notes.

Keyboard and buttons modules HOW-TO has been explained in other threads, if you’re thinking to yourself that you have no idea what I’m talking about I suggest sticking to the “regular version”.

Known Issues:

You will require the November 29 3D driver found at this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=852937. If you don’t install this your device will function completely normal outside of 3D games and applications. IMPORTANT NOTE: don’t install the gralloc driver as it will cause the screen driver to eventually lockup (otherwise known as SoD).

The camera has been fixed in the kernel source code, but the libraries in Android have no support for it. It’s not an easy fix, and it’s not going to be fixed anytime soon so support has not been built into the kernel.

Keyboard and buttons will eventually fail, this isn’t new but using a method posted in this forum for reloading the drivers (advanced version only) works!

The battery driver is very accurate up until about 50% left being reported in Android. After which it becomes somewhat unstable, reports incorrectly and may force shutdown (softly) your device. My best suggestion; consider 40-50% left as 0.

Smart feedback is appreciated.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] codexc:
thanks alot i will tested and back with feedback soon
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] CowMix:
are android camera libraries particular to each device or can we use libraries from other devices?
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] matejdro:
Here is the guide for advanced kernel, which allows you to wake keyboard with 1 click instead of rebooting the device. Guide is for freshly installed android (so no just updating the kernel).

1. Extract autostart.sh from the included archive and place it to your SD card

2. Install android like normal.

Until step 9, keys won't work, except for camera and power button. If you screw up, press camera button to return to the home screen.

3. If you don't have it in your release, install "Terminal Emulator" from market

4. Launch "Terminal Emulator". Soft keyboard should pop up.

5. Type "su" (everything without quotes from now on). Press enter. Symbol on the left should change to #.

6. Type "mkdir /data/opt" and press Enter.

7. Type "mv /sdcard/autostart.sh /data/opt" and press Enter.

8. Type "chmod 777 /data/opt/autostart.sh" and press Enter.

9. Type "sh /data/opt/autostart.sh" and press Enter. Software keyboard should disappear now and keys should be working.

10. Go into the market and search for "Autostart (Root)". Install that application

From here, your android is working. If you wish to add 1-click keypad fix, then continue reading, otherwise you can close this page.

11. Install application "GScript Lite" from market.

12. Open GScript Lite.

13. Press left softkey (menu) and select "Add Script".

14. Type any name, like "Fix Keyboard".

15. Tick "Needs SU?" and press "Load File".

16. Type this into bottom window:

#!/bin/sh

rmmod microp-keypad
rmmod microp-ksc
insmod /lib/modules/microp-ksc.ko
insmod /lib/modules/microp-keypad.ko

17. Press save.

18. Return to the homescreen

19. Hold your thumb to get "Add to home screen" menu.

20. Select Shortcuts --> GScript Lite --> Script that you just created.

And now, each time your keyboard or front keys stops working, simply press camera key and tap on that icon you've just created :)

P.S.: this is not my work, i have just adapted what users seandean and yaana created. All credits go to them.

For the kernel, first impressions are OK. Testing with release "Only T E S T E R S [New CM6.0 Full + Barebone][29-11-2010]" release + nov29 3D driver. Artefacts still present when turning device on. I will report more after testing it out a bit more.

is it something wrong??

im using CM6.1
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] codexc:
are you using windows 7 OR vista ?

if use this OS , you need to remove SD card and use card reader then recopy the kernel files , use v4b advnaced with autostart.sh

im using ubuntu 10 and win xp..

i try to port it same as i port the other kernel..

but the other kernel work and not getting error when running haret,but with this one i got error..

thanks for quick reply..
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] kerfooly:
you can skip the steps 14 to 16 by downloading the attached file and pressing load file when you are in the new script page. so instead of typing all those comands you can just load this file and save it. :)
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] matejdro:
I have tried that, but for some reason it showed me blank screen instead of script file browser.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] kerfooly:
it works for me most of the times but it sometimes restart the device maybe typing it out is the best way

Hi!

I have been testing Android and various Kernels for a while. And I have got no good answer to a question I have. I cant get bluetooth headset to work. Cant pair them. The answer I got is that its not fixed and that it is kernel issue. Bluetooth seems to work but not to connect pheriperals.

Is there a plan for this to work or is it a thing for the future?

Its the one thing before it can actually be used for day to day work. Lotus Traveler is now released for Android so sync should work.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] xorium:
today i got a isseu i runned android from yesterday evening until this afternoon that my buttons dont work again. only the camera button. how can i fix this? or is it retyping the codes again?
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] metk@:
Here working very good on CM6.1 :)

During boot there is a line containing something like:

[KOVSKY]: is ac online == 0

or (if charger is plugged in)

[KOVSKY]: is ac online == 1

Maybe it is possible to set this parameter to be '1' at boot? So the charger would work either it is connected or not while runnig 'haret.exe'

Hello!!

Why no one trying to help me porting the v4b kernel?

U all didnt help each other at all

i post this alot,but no one come infront to help?

Where r u all???

Where mod?

Where developers??

Where?

Need help here!!!!!
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] pbfree:
first of all if you have a working release like the basic CM6.1 barebone, you olny need to replace the file on sdcard with the new one (you can copy the old one to a backup dir if you want go back).

if you don't have a working release, than you need to start from there: download it and install it following instruction on the forum.

mainly you have two option:

the neopeek release need two partition on the sdcard (1. fat32 2. ext2)

the other release need only one partition (fat32)

once you have a working android you can go to the next step (with the advanced kernel) if you like replace the 3d driver and so on.

hope this help, if not pm me I try to help you.

anyway the forum it's full of detail.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] the_icebear:
hi guys

i compiled the cifs module for seandeans v4b kernel,

if you want to try it out, put it in /lib/modules and load

it with modprobe.

Update:

playing mp3s from an cifs source didnt work well for me,

with cifs option forcedirectio it improved but I still had

some stuttering, so i switched to nfs

Nfs modules have to be loaded in the correct order:

lockd

sunrpc

nfs

Mount command:

mount -t nfs -o nfsvers=2,nolock nfsserver:/dir /mountpoint

If your Wi-Fi sleep policy is set to 'never', then also try flashing a different radio version as this can help with Wi-Fi reception.

I ordered mine 1 hour after launch on thursday morning, saturday night they send me an email saying its been backordered......awesome!!!

Apparently bestbuy has really dropped the ball with this launch, something I feared would happen, but was really hoping wouldn't....

I'm super happy for the people that got their nexus S, but personally really am missing the google store :( I ordered my nexus one at 4pm 3 days after launch, and by 1pm the following day had it in my hot little hands, free engraving and all.....

A quick browse of the bestbuy forums will validate my claims. Some people ordered their phone friday and received it saturday, while others are simply left waiting, there really seems to be no method to this madness....

Worst part is, the phone is still listed as IN STOCK with GUARANTEED CHRISTMAS DELIVERY on their website.....

EPIC FAIL best buy :(

I want my nexus s.....*sniffle*
[Nexus S General] mingkee:
Wow!!!

That is quick!
[Nexus S General] Fuse8499:
I won't order anything from Best Buy. They shoulda sold it on Google.com or Amazon.
[Nexus S General] slowz3r:
Maybe they would have had more phones if they didnt start productions the week before release lol :p
[Nexus S General] DKYang:
Google.com didn't work well with Nexus One and Amazon is not a good choice either since they are online only. Yes yes, I know people can buy prepaid debit or whatever, but perhaps in Google's mind. Better to go with a store that can sell both in store and online rather than just online only.
[Nexus S General] shrivelfig:

Ι think somehow they have blogged access from all european countries.

I get access denied from Greece too...

I think Someone made a strange deal, as we can buy Nexus S 400€ from BestBuy and from Carehouse (European citizens) must pay around 650€...

So i think somehow someone blogged access from european countries to stop us from ordering the Nexus S from America and to force us at least for some days to buy it from the European exclusive shop....

These are my thoughts....

I'm getting access denied from Hong Kong right now.....

I really hate how they say the google store failed....it was absolutely perfect for me. Super fast shipping, free engraving, no bestbuy bull****, no fake promises, no bait and switch, just a stellar ordering experience all around in my experience. Why couldn't they keep the google store open for online sales and distribute it to bestbuy stores so the numbtys can 'play with it before they buy it', and that way the nexus' core audience (people with more than half a brain) can still order it with ease direct from google.

I'm starting to wonder if I should place some of the blame here directly on google for making this terrible terrible decision to give bestbuy exclusive sales rights.....
