Its not easy. GingerBread support 720p recording, like stock sense, stock Nexus One, Stock Samsung Galaxy S... but CM7 dont. Are not easy, its much more that in App Setting, its a framework implicated and some others stuff. With Froyo was a lot of more easy. Im sure that with time, CM7 team could add 720p feature on CM7, but its a feature that requiered a lot of work to work fine.

The best way to remove any apk are:

1º. Remove them before Flash, just open zip file and directly remove any apk you want. You can add any file too if you want

2º, After Flash, if you are s-off you can use root explorer, winscp/putty (if you have ssh support)...

Is there an easy way to find out or do I need to dig out my invoice then contact them ?
[Desire Android Development] cez10:
right, i have restored the data, but the problem with insufficient storage exists again, and apps force close, cant even chech app gui for the cache space etc :/ how can I get rid of the data then ? guess i could just factory reset and then restore just the sd-ext?

think i will just wipe all hmmm decisions decisions ahha

SD-ext and data will not work unless they are both restored if you are using a2sd+

Have you got a titanium backup?
[Desire Android Development] cez10:
hmm ive restored sd-ext and everything seemed to be working, then i wanted to get the passwords back and restored data and it all stopped again

and yes i do, but i never knew how to use it so kind of didnt even touch it really, guess it wouldnt do an auto backup itself?

2.2 In warranty Repair

In-Warranty repair means a repair carried out on a unit within 12 months of its purchase. This is not a Non-Warranty chargeable repair.

I googled it....

I found a web page...

I read it....!!!
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
No it wouldnt.

have you not got an earlier nandroid backup you can go back to?
[Desire Android Development] cez10:
yeah i got one from the 18th april, just before i moved everything to a new sd card

so what does the sd-ext restores?

I am thinking of doing a full wipe + restore contacts, texts, and apps using appbrain, what else could be umm worth restoring?
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
If you have a2sd+ (which you have unless you removed the script) then all the apps installed on /data/app (basically all your apps) are symlinked to /sd-ext/data/app

essentially this means that a majority part of each application that you are responsible for installing is on SD-EXT. Without this, these apps will not function.

Hope this clarifies.

If you did a full wipe, before restoring data, try doing the moving of dalvik to ext too. This could be part of the problem (Although assuming the nadroid will over write this).

Why are you not just doing a full restore?
[Desire Android Development] cez10:
right, i think i undestood the sd-ext bit

i didnt do a wipe yet, i have moved dalvik to ext before, well i guess i could do a full restore, but then how can I make sure the problem wont happen again ?

e/

ok theres still something weird going on, I have restored full nand went to market to update the apps, and then when about 10-15 of them updates the phone suddenly reboots from the boot animation... I think a full wipe is needed...
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
What was the.original problem?
[Desire Android Development] cez10:
http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=13213011&postcount=7755

apps not working, reboot, then sd card wiped itself
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Oh yeah sorry. I don't think you can be sure. Just back things up regularly
[Desire Android Development] cez10:
no worries man, you helped me a lot anyways :)

yeah I will full wipe, then restore contacts, log, texts, and apps with app brain and then wont install every app that i might find usefull one day or never,

btw, if I full wipe system, and memory card, Im guessing all the needed files/folders on sd card will be created at 1st boot?
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Yeah they will but don't forget your back up files are there too ;)

...and photos
[Desire Android Development] cez10:
ok then 100% wipe tonight after my gf goes to bed and she stops txting me haha

nah i got it all backed up from the 18th april on my computer, since then didnt really do a lot with the phone so havent lost anything important :P

and now I will be backing up with titanium and once a week with nand :)

Anyone know what radio I should be using? I am currently using 32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2 I know it's old, but it was the recommended one for MIUI. I think I am having bluetooth problems (can't make transfers with a laptop). Can anyone confirm this is not a ROM issue?

I managed to work around the TELUS| issue by using the Lese lockscreen.
[Desire Android Development] Jameswgm:
Using the 32.54 radio and the recent 2.2.1.0.0.3G ril I've had great battery life over the last day, needs more time to test but I'm rating this combo.

Try to use Bluetooth Transfer or something like that. Build-in feature is limited.

Working well for me too.

I flashed the "leaked drivers + RIL" pack, lost mobile signal completely, flashed this RIL over it and all nice. So I believe I am using the leaked drivers now but with the 2.2.1003G RIL.

Hey,

I was wondering maybe you know a way to somehow save data like passwords logins of certain apps? I.e. Browser, swype dictionairy, ping etc etc ?does titanium save it that way?

Yeh i will check it before full wipe, it seems to be working, though not stable, market apps update gave me a few reboots, ill definitely do a full wipe tonight,

The only good thing about what happened last night is that when the card wiped itself i noticed a big speed boost of ths system :p perhaps there was too much crap for not doing a wipe for few months :)

Ps/ where do i get the leaked drivers from? :p

[Desire Android Development] Jameswgm:
Look for the RIL and Radio threads in this forum:

RIL thread is http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=902752 you have to go to the end to find links for the 2.1.0.0.3G RIL but it's worth it.
[Desire Android Development] kafe4ever:
and with this RIL and driver I do not lose signal when the phone is sleeping ?
[Desire Android Development] redrum781:
Well this doesn't work for me, but it works for Theliels and some other users.

I had to reflash RIL, as I already said it only rils ending with G work on my Desire.

You might wanna try and see how it behaves on your device. If signal drops or doesn't get a lock on service provider flash another RIL (see my signature or the one used in stock gingervillain which is HTC-RIL 1.6.1062G http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9319586/RIL/HTC-RIL_1.6.1062G.zip)
[Desire Android Development] :
Do I need to flash the ril and driver everytime I flash a rom update?

the new ril and drivers are working really fine for me. Have read that someone could now even use a HAVS kernel which wasn't possible on older versions. Gonna try that tomorrow as well :D
[Desire Android Development] Large Hadron:
Yes, unless they are incorporated into a future ROM update.
[Desire Android Development] Theliels:
I dont believe Richard add them in sort. The latest RIL dont work fine for everyone, its probed. About Drivers, for me and some others seen work fine with better battery life in general, but maybe its only a placebo effect and maybe break something more in the rom. Anyway, the leaked firmware its "leaked", non official, so can be a buggy drivers too. IMHO, its only for testing :)

[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
I did not release this in Villain setup. It was a personal test and i deleted it only minutes after uploading/testing. you can use android mate to put the Vending.apk from the full rom in the /system/app/ directory (and reboot after that).

After a bunch of test... This rom is perfect. Everything fits my daily consumption !

One things I want to note down.

When I update to 2.1 and the kernel from K to L, I've noticed that the GPS broke down :-/

Using Navigation, the application couldn't find the GPS, and the icon played hide and seek >.>

So I came back to the precedent kernel K... And everything was fine...

Just a small things, it's maybe an isolated case...

By the way, I'm back on Eviollet with a battery life of 1j11h with 40% left (using the Desire outside the house far from my laptop)
[Desire Android Development] AlboGio:
+1. All work great.

No issue with GPS/WiFi/BT.

[Desire Android Development] dave7802:
I have neglected my Android for a while :-p and got around to sorting it out the other day.

I come from 1.1 to 2.1 and WOW!!! What a difference and improvement.

So much Faster, Animations are a lot smoother, and Battery Life is much better

10/10 for this Nice work Rich :D

Little question

How can i move a single app:

InternalMemory -> SdExt

or

SdExt -> InternalMemory ? :confused:

/data 123Mb used 94Mb free (Internal?)

/data/app 575Mb used 385Mb free (External?)

I want to put some more usefull apps into the fastest internal memory :rolleyes:
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
Anything on internal goes to your SD ext... I don't believe there is a way to move just one or two apps to internal while a2sd is in place...

I think the 385mb is app2sd, while the /data is just stuff like texts and things.... I think....
[Desire Android Development] AlboGio:
Are you sure? :confused:

why in the CyanogenMod'option you can choose whether to install the app in the internal-external memory? :rolleyes:

in /data yes, there are only... data files :p as texts/logs...

But i use the hboot 180Mb (system) - 40Mb (cache)... 217Mb (is the space of internal memory usable for apps and /data)

So, if i chose in CyanogenMod for installation place the internal memory...

When i install a new app, i see it in /data/app...

but it is put in the internal memoy because the free space in /data (shared space) decreases... :rolleyes:
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
I'm sure... if u have an ext on SD card, the apps will go to that. The internal external is so you can move an app to the android_secure on the SD card (google a2sd style).

When u install the app, it goes to internal memory, but is tricked into going to the ext on SD card.. the /data will still go down, as the app has data... :)
[Desire Android Development] AlboGio:
uuu...understood, now I have the ideas a little clearer ;)

even if I did not understand what use the option internal-external in CyanogenMod :rolleyes:
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
That option is for people who don't have app2sd to move to ext on SD card.. if you don't, then you can use googles a2sd which puts part of the app in a folder on the fat32 of the SD card... basically if you're not rooted, you can still "kind of" have an app2sd feature... Google implemented this feature with 2.2...
[Desire Android Development] AlboGio:
perfect, now I understand "everything"... :)

I remain to be understood only the women... :D:p
[Desire Android Development] traderjean:
But the google A2SD is not very good. Some apps will crash on boot and apps that are on SD will close if you plug in to computer with mass storage. The EXT treats apps like they are on the phone mem, not the SD so its better.

As for women, give me a shout when you find out :P
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
This is true... plus widgets won't work...

however, I have the app2sd in place, and had around 80mb of of free internal... I then moved all my apps to internal (from Google a2sd) and my storage went down to like 65-70mb, these were mainly large apps (angry birds) which obviously leave a big footprint on internal memory...
[Desire Android Development] Large Hadron:
It is better in almost all respects.

Yes, google a2sd can't be used for apps which have widgets (you'll lose them on boot) and apps can't be accessed when the sd card is mounted over usb. But with Gingerbread the Google a2sd not only moves the apk but also the app's lib directory (/data/data/<app>/lib), which the DarkTremor included with GV does not do (and the Google version didn't do under Froyo). For many apps this makes no difference, but there are some where this directory contains a large shared object library (.so), and for those apps you use less internal space if you use the Google a2sd than the EXT version. Hence I do selectively use the Google a2sd for a few apps: for example, not being able to run Aldiko 2.0 when the phone is in mass storage mode isn't in practice a big problem, and it saves me 8MB. But I use the EXT for most, for the reasons you give.

The recent DarkTremor betas contain an option to move the whole of /data/data, but I've not tested this yet (since I have a relatively slow card I could imagine this having performance implications, but it's really that I've not got round to trying it).
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
Thanks for this explanation.. this also confirms my previous post with moving angry birds to fat32 SD card and having more internal... thanks :)
[Desire Android Development] Large Hadron:
It had niggled me for a while that this behaved differently between Gingerbread and Froyo, and I didn't know why. So one evening about 3 weeks ago I sat down and used adb shell (mainly "du" and "ls -l" commands) to watch what actually changed when I moved apps between "phone" and "SD". And then I tried it while running DeFroST to confirm that Gingerbread was moving stuff that Froyo didn't :)
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
Clever stuff... I would have just put it down to magic, ;-) lol

CIFS support

Hi there

Loving the ROM especially with the RIL flashed the battery life is superb. Also I can reccomend GO Launcher for reliability, stability and speed of use with this ROM.

Anyway, I noticed that CIFS support broke around V1.9 and can't see any posts to say if it's working again or not. Can anyone confirm or deny that they have CIFS working on 2.1? I'm getting the no such device error....
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
cifs is working fine here (commandline or cifs manager). latest .38 kernel. you need to load the module (cifs manager can do that).
[Desire Android Development] stueyboy:
Bugger! by module do you mean the market app or something else? I have it installed but don't remember it being this difficult to get the shares up last time I configured it. It's been a while since I switched ROM's so well done for building such a good one that I went to the trouble of a clean install...

I'm currently trying to map the following 192.168.0.5/docs Shoudl I have leading slashes or http:// or something? Just can't remember.

Hang on: Just enabled an option in settings and it works now. Thanks for the reply
[Desire Android Development] jeffrey23:
I tried this "WiFi Kepp Alive" program because I posted earlier in the thread about having really high latency/Request time out when the screen is off. This program seems to keep the wifi active a bit longer but there is still huge latency and packet loss regardless. I found this out by setting up a constant ping to the device and flicked the screen on and off. The difference is huge which makes streaming music and other stuff like that cut out when the screen goes off.

Maybe people who have flashed the new drivers or new RIL can test out if there is this huge latency/request timed out over wifi by also doing the same thing and setting up a constant ping to the device in command prompt and then turning the screen on and off.

Sadly, the only ROMs I was directed to that seem to have a fix are

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=773997

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=861690

and these are non ASOP roms. It would be really nice if one of the devs here could make a patch for the wifi driver so that ppl could flash it afterwards if they want constant wifi with the screen off. Now I don't code so I am at the mercy of the devs here but if anyone is actually interested I can send a link to kernels that have the wifi fix if they wish to decode them to see what was done and I can forward some messages from Myshkinbob about what the problem is and how to test to see if a ROM has the fix. He was the actual one who made some patches for kernels a while back but does not do them anymore.

I'm gonna try flashing a new RIL and see what that does. Personally I really hope that there is a fix for a kernel that is compatible with Gingervillain or that some one here cares enough to try and fix the problem. But everyone is also busy with theirs lives, which is hugely understandable.

Let me know if anyone is interested in that info.

Cheers
