I've discovered throughout the day that battery consumption is quite high while on 3G using .14 radio. On wifi that combination is great. I've just swapped to .27 radio and will see how that goes while on 3G only.
[Desire Android Development] BarnOwl:
Great rom! A relief on resources after using a HD rom. Battery lasts at least twice as much!

But can you tell me why you want to now i have spare parts Kullixx `?
[Desire Android Development] 325i.:
Anyone?

Furthermore, is it possible to extract the radio and ril from the modaco rom? I will then flash it and hopefully it will fix the issue.
[Desire Android Development] mr_clean5953:
why is my usb transfer rate sooooooooooo slow?
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Ask in the modaco thread... and yes you can flash radio and rils. They are downloadable
[Desire Android Development] mr_clean5953:
Anyone?????
[Desire Android Development] 325i.:
I have got the radio.img file from the modaco rom. How do I flash a .img radio file?

And finally, in which location is the ril stored as I want to extract it?
[Desire Android Development] fatspirit:
mr_clean5953, switch to .35 kernel

Sent from my HTC Desire
[Desire Android Development] mr_clean5953:
whats the website for all the kernels?
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Don't extract anything. Download them.

You have to use fast boot commands to flash radio images if s-off. Otherwise it needs to be in a flashable zip, which is why you should download the radio from Adam g's radio thread in this very forum

[Desire Android Development] 325i.:
Ok cheers, I have downloaded the radio in a flashable zip.

Now its time for the ril. I know I can download them but I want the exact one from the modaco rom.
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
That's why you need to ask the developer in his thread what ril is used

However you are supposed to match the ril to the radio so if you're flashing a different radio, you need a different ril
[Desire Android Development] Staggers:
I just had a thought (usually a dangerous proposition, but I'll go ahead anyway)...

The conventional wisdom in this thread to overcome slow usb transfer speeds and improve battery life has been to flash a .35 kernel. However, they've gotten up to .38 kernels by now, and I'd suppose the revisions are meant to include bug fixes and other improvements over earlier versions. Could any kernel dev (rt, eviollet, coutts?) or anyone else in the know weigh in as to when the more recent kernels might be fixed up to rectify the probs that a .35 kernel seems to fix, 'cause it seems that we're moving backward by continuing to recommend and use old kernels.

Swyped from my HTC Desire
[Desire Android Development] EViollet:
Hi.

There are MANY differences between .35 and .37 kernels. The main difference is the scheduler which is supposed to be more reactive on .37 kernels.

There also are many bugfixes so if you want to play safe and up to date with fixes, then a .37 or .38 kernel is the best.

But quite frankly, if you don't have any issues with a .35 kernel, and don't find the possible speed increase with .37/.38 interesting , then stick with a .35.

Sometimes it's good to weigh the pros and cons of being up to date. Others may just say: "what the hell, this works, why try something else?"

Also, for information, the drivers are mostly the same and usually up to date on the .35 kernels as well. The differences really lie down to the core of the kernel, and supporting new chipsets, etc.
[Desire Android Development] 325i.:
Cheers, I've sent Paul a PM regarding exactly what radio and ril it has.

Lastly, as I'm having wifi issues, is the radio and ril the only things that I can change to fix it?
[Desire Android Development] Staggers:
Thanks for the reply, eviollet. As it stands I don't have any problems with a .35 kernel (yours). Was just wondering about the long term effects of sticking with an older kernel in the face of upgrades. What you've said makes perfect sense though.

[Desire Android Development] 325i.:
Cheers, but is there anyway to find out without installing the rom?
[Desire Android Development] Theliels:
point me to the modaco room
[Desire Android Development] Tekguru:
Bump - anyone?
[Desire Android Development] Theliels:
Modaco use HTC-RIL 2.2.1001G
[Desire Android Development] 325i.:
Cheers mate,

So now I am using the same ril and radio as the modaco rom but still having wifi issues.

What else could it be?
[Desire Android Development] Theliels:
maybe a wrong driver or a bad configuration file for flash a incorrect RIL.

Some days ago, I had the same problem. I flashed by error a complete desire 49 ril...white screen bug, wifi problem, call problem... In my case, a full wipe and GV again. Have you kwno that RIL you installed? My packet was based on RIL 49, maybe you flashed other version, and I miss some driver.
[Desire Android Development] lman00:
Why is everyone telling, that making wifi never sleep will help reduce battery usage. Somehow mine uses much more battery when wifi is on :( Am I missing something, or is there any special setting for this?

here is a link to my screenshot

btw amazing ROM, I really like it
[Desire Android Development] Large Hadron:
WiFi on will indeed use more power than WiFi off.

The advice is aimed at people who leave WiFi on when it is not being actively used, e.g. if you always leave the data connection active but switch from 3G to WiFi when at home. In this case, you reduce drain when the phone is idling if the WiFi sleep policy is set to never.
[Desire Android Development] 325i.:
I had also flashed the wrong ril yesterday and I was getting same problems like you such as white screen.

But since then I have done a full wipe and flashed HTC-RIL 2.21001G . Where can I get the correct wifi drivers from?
[Desire Android Development] Theliels:
if you have problem after full wipe (format cache, system, data...) should be them your kernel on your Desire maybe. I can tell you that Im running in this moment after full wipe GV 1.4 + 32.54.00.32U_5.14.05.17 Radio + HTC_RIL_2.2.1001G RIL + 1.6 Havs BFS Richard's, and all work perfectly.
[Desire Android Development] amir88:
So does that mean that for me that I always turn off data and turn on wifi manualy when I get hom and leave the wifi on, the wifi sleep policy is good ? .. cuz yeah this also doesnt make sense for me either ..
[Desire Android Development] xysonata:
After flashing the .38 kernel, transfer speeds went up from 150-200KBps to 1MBps. But 1MBps still seems too slow for a class 6 SD card. Hmm. I guess I'll just have to do the USB mount everytime I'm going to copy large files to my SD card.

Thanks guys

Does anyone have problems with network connection?

I found the following issues:

-gtalk connected -> I receive a message -> status bar notification is shown -> network signal and 3g became white -> when I try to read the message told me no connection active.

also when I receive status bar notification for gtalk, while it persists, I have no signal also (white not green) - > tried to call and i'm out of network.

Tested also without status bar notifications for Gtalk and there is no problem for the network signal, just that I have to check manually if somebody wrote to me :)

-I have problems also with ymess notifications into status bar -> it shows me twice the notification and FC messenger application. Here I saw no issue with network signal.

Is there a fix for this already?
[Desire Android Development] Abomb:
@jimbok:

Had the same problem, reinstall of chrome to phone fixed it for me.
[Desire Android Development] Large Hadron:
If that's how you use it, then WiFi sleep to never is the recommendation - many people have reported excessive current drain otherwise. It's not intuitive, but I guess the sleep doesn't work properly.
[Desire Android Development] amir88:
probably I should give it a try for few days to see how it works. I'll report after few days :)

EDIT: Posted in wrong thread.
[Desire Android Development] virus2013:
Whatever the problem you encounter guys, try first to simply wipe cache and dalvik. It costs nothing and often, it helps.

Yesterday I flashed a new kernel and later, some apps didn't work anymore. I wiped and everything is fine now. It's not the first time I resolve a problem like that.

Also try to never restore system settings, it's bad.

If you wipe cache, don't forget tio redo a2sd cachesd if needed, and only if needed. As long as you have enough internal space, don't worry about that.

Hope it will help at least some of you... :-)

I've been running GV 1.1 for a couple of weeks now and it's been perfect - no problems at all. Today, it is freezing constantly. It either freezes with the screen on whilst I'm using it, or doesn't respond to the trackpad or sleep button to wake it from standby at all it if I haven't used it in 10 minutes. The only way to fix it is to pull the battery. It responds to nothing when it freezes. I've tried rebooting, clearing cache etc but the problem persists. Pretty weird, as it's flawless thus far.

The only thing I don't know is how it goes when the dalvik cache is bigger than the data partition free space. Because when you wipe, it goes back in the internal memory, and space is limited... That's probably the reason why you had boot loops.
