Not sure what you're aiming at, but i guess you mean why dalvik cache is on the nand and not the ext partition. So the speed difference between fat32 and ext is not relevant. And as far as I know the nand is faster for the use of dalvik cache then ext partition.

RC7 widget problems

I have an issue with removing widgets from the widget dropdown since i upgraded to rc7.

i was told i could flash Rc6 remove the widgets then flash rc7 again (i am wanting to avoid having to do that)

is there another way of fixing this issue with removing old widgets in rc7?

Cheers

Battery Life

I just thought I would report that I have found a combination that gives me fantastic battery life with Oxygen and I thought I would post my combination in the hope that it may help someone else with Battery issues:

ROM: Oxygen 2.0 RC7

Kernel: Stock RC7 Kernel

HBOOT: Alpharev Oxygen Table (S-OFF)

Radio: 32.54.00.32U_5.14.05.17 with associated RIL

Power Saving Scripts: rookemod-oxygen

Power Saving Apps: Juice Defender Beta (latest version)

I am currently sitting on 46% available battery and 1d 21h 30m since last charge. Usage has been as follows:

E-Mail sync every hour (HSDPA during the day & WiFi at home)

approx 3-4 5 mins calls per day

60 mins of Bluetooth connectivity with in-car system each day (BT switched off aferwards)

2-3 SMS

Before I stumbed on this combination, I was barely getting over 24 hours.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prosciutboy:
Thanks for sharing your configuration

Did you noticed better power consumption once you upgrade you Radio ?

Why did you update the RIL ? I read somewhere it is not needed to update the RIL on AOSP ROM (and updating could even lead to issues).

One more question, what current do you get (in mA) when phone is in standby with screen off, you can get the battery stats with Battery Widget Monitor free apps.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markdavey:
To be honest, I am not sure which of the steps above led to the increase in Battery life.

As an update, I put it on charge this morning at 2 days, 13 hours, 23 mins off battery which I think is exceptional.

The last time I used a battery widget, the phone was drawing around 3mA (i think) at idle.

I matched the RIL to the Radio from this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=902752

I have had no radio problems at all.

I will join o0micha0o's question. How do I install the new market (simple please :) ).

Also, I cannot get the theme updater to work. When I login I don't see any themes available.

Is this because there aren't any? (RC7 Oxygen 2.0).

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GrinningArmor:
I've noticed that I cannot open ports with Oxygen RC7, no matter which app I use.

My home server runs a VNC server listening only on localhost. I use SSH to tunnel a VNC client to it, but I need to forward a local port (usually 5900) on the client machine to the port I'm using on the server machine.

I've tried a few apps - ConnectBot, Better Terminal Emulator Pro, and PortForward among them. None works. I can connect and open a SSH session just fine, but can't tunnel any local port on the Desire to a remote port on my home server through SSH.

ConnectBot tells me to check if the port is in use or above 1024, neither is the case. Better Terminal Emulator Pro, running ssh from the commandline as root, doesn't show any error, but the tunnel doesn't work either.

I use PuTTY + TightVNC viewer from my laptop and other desktops, so I'm sure my setup on the server side is not the issue.

hi guys.

ive just installed oxy RC7, coming from modaco's R8.

now it still flashs modaco's boot screen and autologged me into my gmail and contacts and had a few of my apps already installed which i find strange as im certain i've wiped everything (format sd, devlik cache, the other cache in clockwork).

however my main concern is i cant download from the market so i cant get my titanium backup's back, it just hangs on download starting and i get quite a lot of FC's.

ive installed the new market, installed htc IME just in case that was it (as per the FAQ) and ive cleared the cache of the market lots of times + rebooted.

is it a case that i have missed something? do i have to choose the restore to factory settings in clockwork (or does this kill my root?)

any help much appreciated, i have read around lots but i just cant seem to pin it down.

Does anyone know what kernels does run now on Oxygen 2.0, adam posted this before http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11702701&postcount=182

was just wondering if it was still safe to run these thalamus Kernels https://www.dropbox.com/s/vrrwhalsujta0e9/2.6.37#view:list
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meaple:
Sounds like you need to wipe everything. Do a factory reset which will wipe the data and cache. You also need to wipe the Dalvik cache too. Doing the factory reset will just wipe data from /data partition and will restore what ever rom is installed, so for you it would be Oxygen. Flash it when wiped and enjoy.

I am running Coutts 2.6.38-HAVS-CFS kernel (RC6) and I am having no issues. His 2.6.37 kernels are great too. Oxygen 2.0 runs off of Thalamus' kernel, 2.3.7.1 I think.

They are the linux kernel version numbers, see kernel.org

2.6.37.2 was only released a few days ago, and hasn't been tested as much, hence it isn't included in an oxygen release yet.

Loving my Oxygen 2. Thanks Adam.

Quick question.

I deleted a couple apps from /system/app.

Had some extra space in there so I moved maps and adobe reader into /system/app

I used adb

... pull ...apk

... rm ...apk

... remount rw

... push ...apk

... remount ro

Having done all that and everything seems fine with the apps I moved. But...

Just want to ask; if maps and adobe reader are in /sytem/app will they update properly when updates come available?

Also at present /system partition has 2.93MB free space for overhead. Is that sufficient?

Thanks for all your hard work and the best ROM.

I got a huge battery drain problem after coming from RC-7 to 2.0.

When coming from RC-7 -> 2.0 i did this:

Wiped data + cache + dalvik

Installed Oxygen 2.0

Wiped data + cache + dalvik again

Then started fired Oxygen up! Installed all the apps through Marked, and 5 apps through Titanium backup that i had backuped from RC-7.

The phone was charging through the night, but after a couple of hours, manly ideling in my pocket, the battery was 30% down(only 2G running).

Now 8-9 hours later it's down to 20%. Looking on "Apout phone" and battery stats shows that Android OS been using ~50%.

Anyone have any ideas what it can be? I've tried delete dalvik cache, and looked under running apps, nothing seem wrong.

I have a problem in Oxygen 2 final with the contacts app: Normally (e.g. in GingerVillain) you have a green phone button on the left side of a contact. In Oxygen you can't find one so the dialer app is even more uncomfortable...:(

Every since I started using Oxygen (started at RC-7) my headset controls wouldn't function anymore. I was quietly hoping the final version of the ROM would solve this but alas.

Does anyone else have any experience with this issue? I know that the buttons are still functioning, they work on my friends phone.

ps. I tried all sorts of media players and there is no lint or dust inside my headphone jack ;)

Downloaded Oxygen 2.0 this afternoon and have to say, this is just an AWESOME rom, thanks Adam ;)

I've got a few question, though:

1. Is there a theme, which makes the grey parts in the notification area pulldown black as well?

2. I'm using the power widget in the notifcation area pulldown. When I select the brightness "button", I can have different options of light levels. What percentage value of screen lightening is the "DIM" value? Can I adjust this to make it even darker?

3. What are the differences between the 2.6.35 and 2.6.37 kernels? I was using the kernel provided by Oxygen, but _thalamus has posted a new 2.6.35 in the thread. What will I gain / loose, if I switch to this kernel?

BTW: the battery usage is great. Running 4 hours idle and loosed only 2% :eek:

I am having similar issues. Running Radio 32.49, and flashed the exact same method as you. Seems "Android System" is running at 10-20% all the time.

Random thought, do you use Netcom as carrier? Thats mine at least. Just flashed 32.44 so i will try that. Its really bugging me whats keeping the phone from sleeping.. Would dig any way to find this out.

If i have the same drain tomorrow with the new radio, i think i am gonna try reflashing with a full wipe.

i personally use this one (and doesnt drain) 32.54.00.32U_5.14.05.17.zip

but i noticed if your with a dodgy carrier and it constantly swaps between 3g and 2g it drains badly so turn of 3g

or if your on the edge of wifi and it keeps seaking and turning off bad drain as well

havent noticed it myself, went and gave it a try a few times and couldent replicate the issue.

what kernel and radio are you using? because i think i noticed lagginess before running on certain kernels
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mixy:

my battery was draining badly

i pluged my phone into a power point and pretty much sat there moving my phone and watched it change from 3g to 2g in 10 minutes it dropped and retrieved a signal like 6 times.

just incase after a reboot leave your phone for an extra minute after you see the lock screen its doing some stuff

i find if i try to do anything during this 1 minute it usually ends up been slower than had i waited, could be the same for moving apps and homescreen stuff.

but as for the laggyness your feeling mm not sure, i would just try different combo of kernels and radio till i found one i liked. i had alot of issues previously with kernel and radio combo untill i found the one i liked.

Battery Drain

For those who suffer from insane battery drains because of Android OS (i had around 70%):

Yesterday i have wiped dalvik cache but the problem continued.

today I have changed the kernel version from 2.6.37.2 to 2.6.35.11 (BFS), just because of some suspicion about drivers (i just have basic knowledge about linux kernels and drivers).

i don't know how or why but now android os is draining only 2%. maybe the last reboot caused it. however, display is draining 54% now. i am not sure that this is normal. i will wait for current widget to collect more data.
