Hi guys

I'm still getting a lot of reboots with this rom.

Also, data download stops working and requires cycling of flight mode to wake it up again quite often.

Finally, many push apps will not receive notifications while the screen is off (most notably whatsapp)

Any ideas? Otherwise, love the rom
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
What is the phone doing when you get reboots? What kernel are you using?
[Desire Android Development] acambas:
First of all great rom, i've been using it since 0.2 version and it just keeps geting better and better.

The only major problem for me is the wifi, when i'm not using the internet for a while the wifi imon changes color from green to white and it seems as i'm disconected. To solve the problem i need to disconect then reconect to wifi.

The problem bugs me because people cant skype me when they want to.

I'm using the newest radio and my kernel is gv 0.9 havs cfs
[Desire Android Development] KevAmiga:
Anyone find that sometimes when unlocking the screen it takes a few presses of the power button before any response?
[Desire Android Development] KuliX:
Settings - Wireless & networks - Wi-Fi settings - menu button - Advanced - Wi-Fi sleep policy

set it to never
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
When the icons go green that means that you are connected to.Google services I.e. gmail or gtalk... when they are grey you should still be connected to internet... try just opening the market next time it goes grey...

Also do you have the WiFi sleep policy set to never?
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
I did.. I just hold the power button now and it will always wake up...
[Desire Android Development] redrum781:
After two days I'm not too happy with eviollets ManU kernel. It kind of drained my batt too fast, barely over a day on single charge but I think it deserves another chance, since I was using Sygic Aura for half an hour yesterday.

I'm now charging and trying havs bfs @ 875...

The message you have entered is too short. Please lengthen your message to at least 10 characters.
[Desire Android Development] EViollet:
Which version did you try?

The kernel is especially useful when the phone is on idle. And you need to enable 128Mhz minimum using SetCPU. The kernel does it automatically, but, unfortunately the ROMS set the minimum back up to 240.
[Desire Android Development] :
Is there any news when the next gingervillain rom will be published?
[Desire Android Development] redrum781:
This one.

Like I said, could be that GPS drained it a little bit too fast, as I rarely use it. SetCPU was set to 128 min at screenoff.

I'll give it another go, after testing richards havs bfs 875 and default, so I can do a better comparison.
[Desire Android Development] EViollet:
OK. The version you used is the best in terms of battery usage. And it's also true that GPS has a HUGE appetite in terms of power...
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
we will know when the version in the thread title changes and richard posts an update.
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
I don't want an update because then I have to go through all the themes and change the framework res... I'm too lazy lol
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
I'll be fulfilled when I can overlay battery percentage without a flash. I dont like flashign themes.
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
So you're waiting for cm to mod in the battery... then it will be perfect for you...?

I hate the Orange that comes with Android... I used to the think the green on the sense rom was too much...
[Desire Android Development] kaiseris:
I have it a lot with this ROM.
[Desire Android Development] mariosraptor:
moanaged to resolve also unlock-lock sound.

extracted lock and unlock sound from another rom. then used rom explorer to move them to system/media/sound/ui and then changed permissions to r/w,r,r

press ok and reboot.

select from menu to enable lock -unlock sound and it works.
[Desire Android Development] Jwtiyar:
Battery life take too long,and it will make me crazy,there is any fix to this issue?
[Desire Android Development] Furma:
is there any way i can get non-mobile version of the browser?

and also is there any way to get semi-transparent background for the drawer (pure black looks like ****)?

tnx
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Sorry? Your battery lasts too long?

How can I replace the standard android launcher before flashing the rom? is there a tutorial or any kind of advice?

XDA is really loaded und kinda hard to find the right things :(
[Desire Android Development] Jwtiyar:
I mean my battery life will over soon after full charging.
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
Before the flash, just open up the Rom in winrar, system, app locate to launcher 2.apk and delete, then add launcher of choice.. I do this with launcher pro everytime... :)
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
Maybe try a battery calibration...
[Desire Android Development] redrum781:
Damn!! I wish I had the same problem... :D
[Desire Android Development] Jwtiyar:
How to do it?
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
Let Me Google That For You ;)
[Desire Android Development] Jwtiyar:
Iam using google to many thing ,but,iam on mobile and iam in android forum,so may i cant get more info On my phone through google.
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
So, what's the kernel/governor matrix you're suggesting for GV 0.9?

I agree. This is because I said "......with this ROM." ;)
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
I'm on my phone, and just used Google to search "how to calibrate HTC battery" and then a page on xda came up... I'm on my phone and can even link to the page

[Desire Android Development] EViollet:
Actually it's quite simple : I don't use any profile at all.

I just use SetCPU to set the min and max frequencies at startup.

But if I had to set profiles, I'd say

Screen ON : 240-1152 - On demand

Screen OFF : 128-450 - On demand

But I believe that setting a max frequency when the screen is off can, in certain circumstances be counter productive.

Since removing my profiles I haven't noticed any higher battery drain.

I guess it could apply to any ROM in fact... :)
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Surely if something takes twice as long as it needs twice as many cycles than the limit set o

In profile, it uses the same amount of power as if it halved in time but doubled the cycles to complete?
[Desire Android Development] hutzdani:
I don't know why anyone is bothering with SET CPU on this rom . . .i just tested manU kernels : Gingerbread-HAVS-AXI-CFS

And i received 4x SMS / 1 x 10 mins phone call and about 10 mins messing on facebook and when i got home my battery is at 91% ( Off charge at 8:30am / home at 6:00 PM )

SET CPU seems to fight against any Kernel voltage settings / modifiers and drain the battery more than anything even if you set lower states during Charging and screen off / On demand usage.

I run auto brightness on the screen and a live wallpaper doing 20FPS and wifi sleep policy to never and my battery drain is minute on a quiet day, and on a normal day id expect the handset to drop down to around 75% mark at the most.

And with heavy browsing end the day at around 40%.
[Desire Android Development] Large Hadron:
What profiles and governors are you using? Smartass is notorious for deep sleep/slow wake, and changing governors can also cause delays.
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Because I overclock. Works well for me. Never needs charging before bedtime.

For comparison, since your usage is pretty much the same and your battery levels are pretty much the same each day (mine vary a lot as my usage varies a lot) would be interesting to see how your usage changes at the end of the day and also what your batt stats look like at bed time too, if you're up for it? :)
[Desire Android Development] matthiayer:
I've been using this ROM for a few weeks now, and I have a random reboot a day by average.

But I can't use the online market to install apps, is this a ROM problem?

or does it have something to do with my location? (belgium)

Anyone else having these problems
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
Perhaps we're a little misunderstanding. I'm speaking about governor settings, you're speaking about SetCPU profiles.

Let's restart. ;)

SetCPU allows you to setup a frequency range (or a set of ranges if you like profiles) AND a governor to be chosen between those supported by the kernel in use (or a set of governors if you continue to like profiles).

My question was: what's the kernel/governor matrix you're suggensting when using one of your kernels in conjunction with Ginger Villain 0.9?
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
What HBOOT are you using? Using one with a small cache partition (like Data++ does have) will prevent Market to download apps properly.
[Desire Android Development] EViollet:
OK.

Currently "on demand" 128-1190

I only use SetCPU to change the frequencies. That's all. As for the governors, I've tried quite a few, but have returned to "on demand".

Regards,

v.0.4 is close to perfection

Hi,

just flashed v.0.4 today and I have to say: Damn it, you're good Richard!

Facebook sync works on my device now.

Now I want to share my experiences with modifying the rom a bit. I did this, because I like it minimal. I hate wasting space for apps I never use even if there is enough of it (thanks to app2sd+ and a partitioned sd card). Did it with winRAR (just open the GingerVillain0.4.zip and do the changes in the WinRAR-window by right click on the apk and select delete files)

My device works normal with the modificated rom, but it's still at your own risk. Do a Backup! If it doesn't work you should be okay by flashing an unmodified version or restoring your backup.

Deletet apps (in system/app):

Gmail.apk (I like the other Email client better than Gmail)

LiveWallpapers.apk, LiveWallpapersPicker.apk, MagicSmokeWallpapers (I like it pure - black backgroud on AMOLED - who needs battery-draining LiveWPs? - still able to set normal WPs)

browser.apk (installed Dolphin HD after flashing the rom and setted it as standart browser by hitting the browser-button in the dock)

Replaced app (in system/app):

Vending.apk (downloadet a new market v.2.2.7 as .apk and named it Vending.apk [Windows users: just name it Vending because windows doesn't change the extention when renaming a file] and copied it into the rom via drag and drop to the WinRAR-window. Choosed replace and pressed ok [in WinRAR]. This way you'll have the new market incloudet in the rom from the beginning)

Closed winRAR, copied my modified rom to the sdcard and flashed it. Tadaaa!!! GingerVillain 0.4 with new market and some little modifikations)

:D I love this rom :D

Hello Community.. i´ve a Problem with the new ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.0.8. My Desire is still running with ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.1.7. How can I update ClockworkMod Recovery to version ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.1.8??
[Desire Android Development] slhaarsma:
This ROM looks NICE to me, but a few questions:

*in oxygen I don't get navigon to work.. anybody know if it can work in this ROM?

*in oxygen I don't have music in Asphalt game.. does that work in this ROM?

*does this release use the same camera as in oxygen? (I really prefer the HD camera!)

*what exactly is the difference between this ROM and the oxygen release?

I'm still a bit of a noob, but I'd love some awnsers since I'm allready in a fight with my girlfriend over too much time spent on this forum and flashing my phone ;-)

Cheers!

En alvast een knallend nieuwjaar Richard! ;-)

Hi @ all

Switch from defrost to this one and all is working perfectly ...

Just great job and thx for your hard work

Just try and you will see

[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Navigon needs to make the product compatible for gingerbread.

Asphalt 5 music is playing (but i only tested it for a couple of minutes).

Camera can only be used for pictures (no camcorder right now). It's the aosp android camera atm.

This rom is a clean aosp rom with less patches compared to oxygen and will stay that way (except for the reel basic stuff when there's a need to).

en bedankt.
[Desire Android Development] GrandPuba2000:
Zeker bedankt :-)

So the rom will be very close to vanilla? what about cyanogen mod updates?

Are the grey to green icons also changing with a correct connection to google? saw quite a lot of fixes in oxygen rom, in how far are you going to move along in them? some fixes are well usable for gingerbread.

But very good an non draining rom! very good job Richard.

Vooral doorgaan
[Desire Android Development] Hanski:
Hi Richard,

First off; awesome rom. Works like a charm but I have the numbers issue as well, when i select the Dutch dictionary a couple of numbers disappear from the keyboard, changing to English brings them back though, so it's not a big issue.

I've been running your roms since defrost 0.4 and I'll keep using them. Dank u dank u!
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
This rom will stay very close to vanilla. For a cyanogenmod rom i'll continue DeFroST as soon as most of the packages are upgraded to Gingerbread. The grey to green icons are working fine btw.

[Desire Android Development] redrum781:
I'm assuming that's default?

Sent from my HTC Desire
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
You won't have the n1 table unless u flashed the new hboot.. it doesn't just affect the n1 table, and the bit in bold says before u flash anything else load Rom and move dalvik.. I couldn't boot into Rom until moving dalvik..
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
Yes that's default, and with a lot of system space wasted.. you may as well use all possible system.space (look at the oxygen hboot) as leaving some unused is wasted as nothing will install to there (unless flashed or adb). I use the n1 and have 16mb free space in system storage, where as a sense hboot user would have over 100mb... big difference...
[Desire Android Development] albino71:
In fact that's NOT default! Bravo Stock 1.8 is.

The Bravo Sense version gives you much more data.

Name system cache data

Bravo Stock 1.8 250M 40M 147M

Bravo N1Table 145M 95M 197M

Bravo Data++ 180M 5M 252M

Bravo Sense 180M 40M 217M <=

Bravo Oxygen 90M 10M 337M

Bravo CM7 130M 5M 302M
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
That's not the default HBOOT. Default one is "Bravo Stock 1.8", as per AlphaRev's page.

The best way to determine which partition scheme is more suitable for you - not always/only for the ROM you're using - is to perform a nandroid backup and examine the resulting file sizes.

Following are the partition sizes for Ginger Villain 0.9 packed with 140+ apps and several mods (worst scenario case) after a few days of full use:

system: 135.29 MB

data: 128.30 MB

cache: 18.12 MB

Now, giving that "Bravo Data++", "Bravo Oxygen" and "Bravo CM7" HBOOTs sport a cache partition too small for the Market to work properly with larger apps (and too small for GV 0.9 under real use), the choice is between the remaining ones:

"Bravo Stock 1.8": system 250 MB, cache 40 MB, data 147 MB --> not suitable

"Bravo N1Table": system 145 MB, cache 95 MB, data 197 MB --> OK

"Bravo Sense": system 180 MB, cache 40 MB, data 217 MB --> OK

Despite the lager cache size sported by "Bravo N1Table", its system size is roughly 10 MB above the reported ROM needs; so, ad I said before, "Bravo Sense" is definitely the best choice for this ROM.
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
I stand corrected... however, I still think the best is n1 table as it has everything I need, without wasted system.storage, and using the class 10 SD card with app2sd... :)
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Still wasting a lot of /system space. 60MB

I run 120MB 25MB, 293MB

Its custom so its a bit more work, but none of teh tables are without waste for me. Look at the amount of Cache on N1!!!!
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
Yes but I am using 40mb of cache space on the n1... or I could.move the dalvik to there to save space on ext on SD card.. :)

Do you use all your data, or use a2sd?
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Ive loads of space:

Use both
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
To me, it looks like the only thing on internal is Dalvik cache, and all apps on a2sd. Now i know system storage unused is wasted, but surely there is no need for the a2sd script (unless you have a major number of apps).

Hmm, after doing the maths i suppose if the a2sd wasnt there you would have 41mb left - which isnt a lot! so maybe it is worth both!

I think i might just be in an argumental mood lol!!! sorry!!! :)
[Desire Android Development] raikesy:
Proxy

Using the ROM with no problems, definitely the best out there.

Only issue I have is no wifi proxy. I understand it is a long running issue, but am I right in saying the CM build has proxy settings? Is it difficult to implement, or just impossible?

Apologies if these are silly questions.
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Dalvik is on SD-EXT too. Its overkill at the moment sure, but I never have to implement or think about any other solution for the lifetime of the phone. I will accumulate useful apps over time.

So all that is on internal is app cache itself.

I may actualy increase the /cache partition and reduce /data
[Desire Android Development] redrum781:
Thank you guys for explaining the table thing. I kind of know all the basics but now hesitating doint the soff thing again.

Tried it couple of days before and it didn't go as explained in the tutorial i didn't get the final message it was all over. It took like half an hour before I rebooted the phone, thinking it's probably bricked now. It booted and said it was soffed, and it was but I didn't have that alpharev splash.

I'll try it again on a different pc with different cable, when I catch some spare time...
