So, here goes.

Just flashed 1.4, after that new market and S-on addblock, all downloaded via VS. Flashed rom from VS and addblock + market from recovery. All works well as usual! Thnx RT!

Now to the mentioned sd-card crash.

This, or similar has happened to me twice.

Once on 0.9 and once on 1.1

As I'm not one of the guys with deeper knowledge of the system I use, I got quite freaked out when it happened.

In the morning whilst listening to music via mixzing. Music froze, when picked up the phone it did not respond at all. After about 10min I pulled the battery. When it booted it had the standard launcher and only showed the apps installed to sd via androidA2SD. No market, no file explorer, no terminal emulator.

Booted in to recovery and wiped all, flashed nandroid. (So I had no problem seeing my fat32 partition). Failed on md5.. check. Had a copy of 0.9, flashed booted, restored all apps with data with TI. all fine.

Flashed nandroid from recovery, all back to latest bavkup. Dandy!

2nd time on 1.1, it happened when a random reboot took place, this time when i turned the screen off after spending half an hour shooting evil dudes in gun bros.

This time I booted straight to recovery and flashed my nandroid (from same day, lucky me). All went well. Back to normal in a jiffy!

Both times I used the latest version of EVioletts kernel (Thnx to you as well for an awesome job!)

That was just my story.

I have NO input on cause or reason, but it could be good to know, for someone who is knowledgeable enough to look in to the matter!

Cheers!

Bad luck, but after the last day or so I guess I can see where she's coming from ;)

1.4 running nice so far, as expected
[Desire Android Development] Staggers:
FYI, I've been running the Honeycomb V4 theme for at least 3 days now with no issue, so I doubt that had anything to do with it.

No matter...I'm dl'ing GV 1.4 now to flash it and see how things go.

Same problem here.

The transfer speed is much quicker if files are copied while the phone is in recovery mode and not booted into the ROM.

Cont play flash video. 0.4 no problem but 0.5
[Desire Android Development] BriEE:
Verified:

reflashed 0.4 and the screen scrolling was very snappy and fast, like 60fps when you move icons/widgets around or go into apps/menus

0.5 definitely has some sort of lag introduced, not a big lag but the same type of lag you get from FroYo 2.2, not 60fps smooth.

Richard, did you change something from 0.4 to 0.5 that could make that happen?

Technically quadrant's been working completely for several versions now.

But the 3d graphics aren't optimised yet, if that's what you mean. Quadrant scores are still low, but responsiveness in the real world is what matters.

Strange problem here on GV 1.4:

Flashed 2.2.11 market thru villainsetup along with kernel 1.6 havs-bfs-sysfs 900.

When I open market I see all my installed apps in the download section but they are not marked as installed!? I've tried clearing cache but the problem remains.

So I flashed back to the old market and all my installed apps in the download section are shown as installed.

Tried installing market 2.3.3 and it works correctly. Can we have new market 2.3.3 as a flashable zip?

And one other thing: google goggles FCs - stops unexpectedly. Reinstalling help

[Desire Android Development] stupiduglyllama:
Hi,

ROM is generally great, much improved over Defrost. I'm running 1.4 GV with the standard kernel. However I'm having issues downloading/ updating apps. Example, Angry Birds refuses to update to 1.5.2. I click update or download, it looks like its about to start downloading, then just stops. No reason/explanation...

Oh, also I've tried different versions of the market, and I'm using A2SD with an ext2 partition.

Any ideas?

Cheers.
[Desire Android Development] kepz:
Is there an that is as nice as HTC People, Mail... HTC Sense in general?
[Desire Android Development] Staggers:
Are you using a custom HBOOT from AlphaRev? If so, how big is your cache partition?

Swyped from my HTC Desire
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Angry birds is a big app. You can only download apps smaller than your cache partition. Have you changed your Hboot partition table or MTD layout recently?

Edit> My turn to be too late
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
No problems flashing 1.4. Worked great.
[Desire Android Development] fv1ede:
have somebody checked gps? in 1.4

i have gps in 1.1 and 1.2 GV after 1.3 and now in 1.4 no gps and gps icon either

tried other kernels no help

flashed back to older rom everything works! verry weird
[Desire Android Development] stupiduglyllama:
Uhh.. I'm using the same Hboot I've been using since I first switched away from the stock rom.. think its 0.93.001 or something? I've never used a custom one.. let alone recently changed it. I don't even know how to change the partition table or MTD layout... I've still got version 1.5.1.1 of angry birds installed. It just refuses to update it. Theres some other apps, eg Cordy that do the same thing. Look like they are about to download, then just stop.

My ext2 partition is 512mb, but that's not what your on about is it?

It was more of a promise that I wouldnt waste time that I would spend with her in the evening. She was really tired though and had an early one. I tend to use Friday nights for watching films. Speaking of which....
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Nope its not.

How full is your cache partition currently? If you have access to check, although this shouldnt cause a problem really.

Youve tried the clear cache and data thing from manage apps I presume.
[Desire Android Development] Staggers:
No, the ext2 partition's diff from the cache part. Doesn't sound like a small cache is to blame here. Tried clearing the Market cache and rebooting?

EDIT: Right, enough rock-paper-scissors for me then...
[Desire Android Development] stupiduglyllama:
I've tried clearing the caches/data, no difference.

How do I check the cache partition usage?
[Desire Android Development] Staggers:
App called Quick System Info from Market.
[Desire Android Development] stupiduglyllama:
Ah, I see, Total: 40MB, 7.55mb free in system cache... That's a little too small right? How can I increase that?

[Desire Android Development] Staggers:
You could get into Settings > Manage Apps, sort by size and clear the caches of the biggest culprits individually. That way you'd know it was being cleared. Can't say for sure that a simple reboot would also do the same job.
[Desire Android Development] stupiduglyllama:
I've rebooted many a time. I've also cleared the cache on everything, still only 8Mb free..
[Desire Android Development] Staggers:
I'm fresh out of ideas then. You've covered what I would've done.
[Desire Android Development] Staggers:
One last thing you could try: go into CM settings > Applications and set the install location to automatic. I've noticed recently that some large apps don't play well with an install loc of 'internal'. If it works, be sure to move the app back to 'internal' afterwards, and change the default install location.

Swyped from my HTC Desire
[Desire Android Development] stupiduglyllama:
Tried that also, it was already set to automatic. Thanks for the suggestions. Hopefully someone else will have an idea.

I need to find out what's using up all my system cache...
[Desire Android Development] Staggers:
Cool. I'd be interested to know the solution too.
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
App cache is internal /data not /cache

I thought cache just dropped off the end when full.

If you use clockworkmod, you can format cache from there
[Desire Android Development] friedkimchi:
Have you tried using Cache Cleaner NG? I find it helps.

Worse case scenario, you could alway repartition your sd card and change it to EXT 3/4 with 1GB space.
[Desire Android Development] stupiduglyllama:
Ah, I feel a bit stupid now. Did a Wipe cache partition in ClockWorkMod. That's solved it, 38MB free. Angry Birds is updated. I've lost all my scores, but nevermind. Time for some sleep!
[Desire Android Development] kepz:
LOL... better late than never ;)

Maybe you can help me instead then lol. I love the GV ROM, but I'm so used to HTC Sense apps as they look much more cleaner and organised. Can you suggest anything that could run to feel at home with Sense on GV ROM?

Thank you in advance.
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Can't you restore app data via titanium?
[Desire Android Development] Staggers:
I actually quite like the stock look of the apps and have gotten over the Sense look, but to answer ur Q:

*Go SMS improves on the functionality of the stock sms app, is cleaner looking than similarly specced Handcent and is very customisable.

*Dialer One is a good phone replacement and it has the predictive dialing feature that ppl tend to miss.

Finally, LauncherPro Plus gives many Sense-like widgets.

Swyped from my HTC Desire
[Desire Android Development] kepz:
Thanks Staggers! I'll check out your recommendations in between my CoD games lol.

With Sense, it's not really the widgets. I like HTC's People app, Calendar, Friends Stream, etc. They made some really cool apps that just looks really nice and clean. Especially People and how it looks with additional icons at the bottom. I can't express how clean and polished it is compared to the stock look and other apps.

Cheers though Stagger.
[Desire Android Development] kepz:
Daaaaamn... Go SMS FTW! Thanks Stagger.

This ROM is awesome in speed as well. Well done GV!
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Pure messenger widget is s great replacement to friend stream and pure grid calendar too. Unfortunately they aren't free. Plenty of skins though and you can set transparency.

My problem with people is k found it buggy. For me, stock android contacts is much better. After time you realise it is cleaner looking, but it takes a while to appreciate it. I'll never go back
[Desire Android Development] kepz:
I'll give Pure Messenger a go too. Though, the thing I liked about People is that it could "Link" contacts. Just looked at Stock and couldn't find that option.
[Desire Android Development] siliKoner:
Hi.

In Stock Contacts select a contact, press menu, select edit, press menu again and there should be a join option. It doesn't merge them into 1 contact like HTC People does. That's all I've found on gingerbread.

[Desire Android Development] |flyte|:
Exactly why I have such a hard time leaving my Sense HD ROM (without the sense launcher + widgets). This combo is pretty quick and you get the polish of the htc core apps.

Those who have problems with sdcard and a2sd. Did you install themes from market for Tmobile Theme Chooser? Especially from UpwardSpiral -> Blue Bionic, RedRemix?
[Desire Android Development] kepz:
I agree... HTC has done a great job with their apps. Not taking the lime light away from the great apps developed by the community as well though. Just think some of their features just work. Missing my link contacts baad, lol.

OK... I'll try that. One of the main reasons why I like how People works is the link contacts option. I have contacts in Gmail, Exchange and Facebook. Facebook most times don't have phone numbers, but I like them in my contacts as it displays their FB Status. But I have them linked to a contact in my contacts book with my details for them.

If People/Sense work for Gingerbread soon, I'm loving it even more sooner.

Hello everybody

I have a problem, and I need some help.

Yesterday I did an update to GingerVillain 1.4 through gingervillain updater.

The update was ok.This morning I take my phone, and try to reboot it.

And now, it is stuck in a bootloop on the green HTC logo.

I can access to hboot (0.80), but when I try to access to recovery to flash another ROM, I have got the green htc logo, then a black screen !

On this black screen, if I use the power button to wake up the screen, then I can see just one line saying : clockworkmod recovery v2.5.1.0. But I can't see any menu on the recovery.

So I can't boot my desire, I can't flash something else, I am kinda stuck...

I tried removing my SD card, and it is the same thing.

I never had any probleme to flash my desire (every Defrost Version, and now every GingerVillain version)

Thanks in advance for your help...

I hope it's for all Gingerbread ROM, btw. It'd be even better if it had a timer as well, so people don't forget to switch profile, eg; Afterwork to Home.
