Go to Villain Setup, and from there, download New Market. If you press install, it will automaticaly reboot and install it.

If you want the latest version (2.2.11), download it from here. But in order to install it, you must have the New Market from Villain Setup installed.
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
I think you may have answered your own question there.

Dont restore that data. If you absolutely must have it from another rom, nandroid restore to that rom and back that up using mybackup.

You are probably causing a conflict from another rom restoring those settings. Anything in [square brackets] you definitely shouldn't restore if you had to wipe to flash. Its these system settings and data backups that cause force closes.

recommend restoring missing apps with data only. This is why I use mybackup pro myself just for sms and call logs. Then restore no system settings

[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
You can't make it available yourself, but if you have a mod i can include it for you.
[Desire Android Development] panos_ts:
If you don't want a coloured version, you can try this one.

I just took the .zip from the defrostsetup folder, and I changed the default .apk (Market 2.2.7) with the .apk (Market 2.2.11) i uploaded on a previous post.

Although I had already installed the 2.2.11 version, I reinstalled the specific .zip, in order to check if it works fine, and for the time being, it downloads all kind of apps.

@Richardtrip, I think it would have been great, if you could add the 2.2.11 version of the Market at the Villain Setup!

Didn't know that was a cm function. Had it on defrost. It's been here since at least 0.7 I think?
[Desire Android Development] :
I'm fairly new to the non-Sense ROMs, so pardon me if this question is a bit strange.

I've got some weak spots for WiFi in my house, so I needed to install two routers. The second is cascaded from the first and they both broadcast WiFi using the same SSID, but on different channels.

The problem is that when I connect to Router A and move to a "weak spot" (e.g. right next to Router B), I still have (very poor) signal from Router A, which causes the phone to use it instead of the very strong signal from Router B.

The question: is there some application / setting / tweak which can "tell" the phone to use the best available access point (best as in 'best signal')?

Thanks.
[Desire Android Development] amir88:
thnx for the 0.9 :D

I have an issue since I upgrade to 0.9, my wifi is acting up !! When I connect to a network, its working fine, but when I disconnect and want to re-connect to the same network, it wont connect to that specific network. Tried rebooting, but that doesnt help, tried forget the network, doesnt help either.

any thoughts on this ?

p.s. Since I rooted my phone, ive never changed or touched my baseband. my current version is: 32.49.00.32H_5.11.05.27

[Desire Android Development] Nathanf:
Pretty much what I am getting too, only my drain is very low with WiFi turned off. Around 4ma with screen off. 10-20ma with screen off and WiFi on. This is consistent at home and works WiFi.

I suspected an app too, so I did a full wipe, loaded on the ROM on and installed CurrentWidget ONLY from the market. Same drain. So I can rule out a rogue app in my case. Unless it's something that comes stock in GV.

However that seems unlikely too as I have tried Oxygen RC7 and get the same drain. Seems some phones just don't like Gingerbread for whatever reason.

Regards,

Nathan

Thank you Richard! Finaly there is user agent selection.

[Desire Android Development] danarama:
That's odd. I get between 4-6mA with screen off and WiFi on so somehow its something specific to you. Mind you I am on 0.6 kernel as drain is lower for me but mines nowhere near yours even on 0.8 kernel
[Desire Android Development] Nathanf:
Yeah, I think it is something specific to me. No idea what though, as if I restore my DF 6.1 nandroid backup, instantly back to between 4-6ma with wifi on and screen off :(

Where are the 0.6 kernels located?

Hi there,

This rom is just great! So much better than the stock HTC ones...

But I have an annoying problem:

When I'm connected to a wifi network at work and I leave the building it doesn't connect to the mobile internet by itself.

I have to reboot the phone...

I changed the wifi sleep policy to 'never' , 'when screen is off' etc. but it wont work without a reboot.

Anyone lese has this problem?

Thanks!

not really an expert on all this yet ....

the cache move as suggested in post 1 .... do i need to do that every time i flash (if i am wiping first) ? how do i know where my cache is ? and therefore how do i know if i need to move it ???
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
Ppl have moved the cache to the SD card as you say.. it will not move by its self, and unless u have moved it, it hasn't moved. The only reason I do it is because I'm left with no internal space at all (am on n1 table). Yes you would have to do this after a wipe, and I believe that if u wipe the dalvik cache it will return to internal.

The only reason u may need to move it is for internal memory.. at the moment I have 90mb free, if dalvik was on internal, I suspect I'd have around 15 to 20mb free (not a lot)..

Hey ppl!

After installing 0.9 the menu from long pressin the power button is gone.. Instead it does a fast reboot. I tried to look through settings but can't find anyway to get this back. So is it just me missing something or is it supposed to be like this? Kinda hard to turn of the phone :p
[Desire Android Development] mbroeders:
You mean the 'reboot in recovery' options? Try going to settings->CM settings->Interface and make sure you select 'Power prompt'. That should do it...

[Desire Android Development] panos_ts:
Today, I noticed that if I leave the phone without doing anything (only WiFi enabled and WiFi policy set to never) for 5 hours, the battery percentage will fall about 10%...

This is unfortunately a huge amount.

Do you have any tips to propose for saving a little bit of energy? :p

If it matters, I use the default kernel (2.6.37 CFS), and I have setCPU from 245 to 1113...

Hi Bucci!

Richard gave an answer for this at this post... :)
[Desire Android Development] Marsbar:
It never went away. The "fix" (vold.sysfs change IIRC) was never proven to work and in fact caused people problems so RT took it out of DeFroST and (I assume) never put it in GV.

I had my entire disk trashed (to the extent where even after I repaired the partitions I still couldn't mount the drive) the other day because I had the temerity to reboot my phone. Be happy you only lost a couple of files :)
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
Yes it is.. as said in post above, Richard forgot to upgrade it. If u go to calendar it says the version number is 2.3.2 :)
[Desire Android Development] salleq:
2% per hour doesn't sound bad at all, if wifi is connected. I've never got better battery life than that. Theoretically it takes 50 hours to drain the battery, which again doesn't sound bad at all!

My drainage is about 4% per hour today, with quite low usage (some tapatalk browsing in the morning etc)

EDIT: Sorry, it's just a bit over 3%
[Desire Android Development] Nathanf:
Hi Panos,

I'm afraid I am having this, or a similar issue too. Can't really tell you why as the vast majority of people are getting very good battery life from this ROM it seems.

Do you get the same symptoms with wifi off?

If so, I'd be interested in comparing setups/apps etc as I really really love this ROM apart from the high drain.

Thanks,

Nathan
[Desire Android Development] Nathanf:
I may have been very lucky in the past then, as DeFrost 6.1 gave me a maximum of 4% drain over 8 hours whilst I slept. WiFi on, screen off, sync on. Email every 15mins, Facebook every hour etc.

Nathan
[Desire Android Development] mbroeders:
Well, 10% in 5 hours isn't much (as mentioned earlier). However, if you are experiencing battery drain, first make sure you have set the WiFi sleep policy to 'never'. Second, try recalibrating your battery (there is a thread about this). Third, check which apps are syncing, too many?? Furthermore, I've installed the 875 HAVS kernel and battery life is excellent....

You can use the combo JuicePlotter+SystemPanel in order to figure out what is draining your battery. Activate the "Monitoring" feature in SystemPanel (requires purchase).
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
Try to force a channel domain in WiFi advanced settings: since 0.8 i need to set "13 channels" in order to barely see my home WLAN.
[Desire Android Development] Nathanf:
Hi there.

Whilst it's your opinion that 2% per/hour is not much drain, I'm afraid I have to disagree. Having no specialist knowledge about the Android OS or the way it uses its battery, all I can base my opinion on is the fact that on DeFrost 6.1 I was getting 0.5% per/hour drain with wifi on and screen off whilst sleeping, using exactly the same settings as on GV 0.9

In fact as an experiment I loaded just GV 0.9 on, no apps except CurrentWidget, so nothing syncing and I was still getting more drain than DF 6.1 with 2 email accounts, facebook and gmail all syncing at least once an hour. Wifi sleep was set to never and "saved" and the battery has been calibrated whilst on this ROM.

I understand that the overwhelming majority of users are getting excellent battery life, be it perceived or actual, from this ROM, but the fact remains that I and a seemingly very unlucky few, are not.

I am merely trying to understand why, so that I can attempt to rectify the issue.

Regards,

Nathan
[Desire Android Development] mbroeders:
Of course, 10% is more than supposed to, i agree with you (thought 10% while using the phone, should have read more carefully). To be honest, when I flashed 0.9, battery life wasn't great, it dropped to0 quickly. However, since I recalibrated my battery yesterday and installed the HAVS kernel, now I have 50% left after 26hours with medium usage.

When flashing a new rom, always wait a day or two before commenting on battery life. If it still drops too quickly, even though others have normal or even great battery life, try recalibrating your battery or try to find out which app consumes so much battery. Also, it could be that battery drops quickly for the first few hours and then less quickly for the remaining time. Especially if this is the case, recalibrate. Of course, I'm only speaking from my own experience. Wish I could help you more...

[Desire Android Development] Nathanf:
Thanks,

I am have come and gone from GV a couple of times, but as per your advice I am going to have an extended stint with it this time to see if I can get to the root of the problem. Or indeed see if it settles itself down at all.

I don't think I can face 2 days + of just a bare ROM with no apps though :D I'd die without my emails etc arriving! :eek:

Regards,

[Desire Android Development] mbroeders:
Lol, i know what you mean :) But of course just install your programs, don't stick with a bare rom! Even with your programs installed it should run without battery drain...
[Desire Android Development] Marsbar:
Wow. I'd say you are fairly lucky. I guess you have a pretty decent phone signal where you are?

I'm living with 3-4% an hour, although that's with push email, wifi, bluetooth, 3g data all enabled. For me that's acceptable because I charge overnight so the tradeoff of never having to worry about enabling/disabling bluetooth or waiting 15 minutes for an email is ok; the best I ever had was with the 800mV HAVS kernels on DeFroST 2.4d and I got just under 2% an hour on that, IIRC.

Given that you're the only person experiencing the significant increase you describe (you're talking about 4 times the rate of drain, which - if it were widespread - we would certainly see more about in these forums) I'd say you're probably the only person that can debug it. Try turning things off, one at a time, for a few hours, see which one it is that changes it.

[Desire Android Development] eldinnie:
Wow, I think i need a few hints. As it is i got 14-20 hours battery without charging. This is with sync enabled, wifi disabled, mobile data enable, bluetooth off, screen at lowest density. Am i missing something? What is a bigger drain, Wifi or mobile data? I always have wifi disabled assuming it takes up more battery then mobile data. Is this assumption wrong maybe?

Also I use SetCPU to downscale to the lowest value when screen is off using the stock kernel.

I already figure 15 hours was a big improvement compared to stock sense but appearently it is not half as good as it can be.
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
Not just you, is with everyone - maybe a gingerbread feature, im not sure?
[Desire Android Development] Nathanf:
Hey guys,

I think I should point out that I'm was only getting 4% drain over 8 hours on DeFrost whilst I was asleep with the phone doing nothing other than sync'ing emails and facebook once an hour. And that said I don't get loads of emails of FB updates.

On GV, I got 10% drain last night over 8hrs under the same circumstances. I think during daily use, screen on, making calls, sending texts etc, that GV is the equal or possibly better on battery than DeFrost. Its just the idle drain that I am trying to iron out.

I was worried that I looked like I was getting days and days of full use out of my Desire! :eek:

Nathan
[Desire Android Development] Large Hadron:
I think it might be an AOSP feature - I'm sure I first noticed this when I moved to DeFroST.

Edit: On reflection, not certain. I did spend a lot of time swapping between DF and the early GVs, and hadn't had DF for so very long before, so might be confused. Can't be bothered to restore a DF nandroid to check...

Modified BluFrost

Building a very small bit on mattmanwrx fantastic work, I have modified the battery, signal icons and the power widget indicators to fit blufrost a little bit more. See attached screenshot... these are very basic modifications.. but I think blue is more fitting for the signal icons once full internet connectivity is detected rather than green.

[Desire Android Development] KuliX:
Not long ago i thought that one of the unnecessary things are custom bootanimations.

No one reboots his device all day to watch fancy animations...

But since im flashing 5-10 times a day (not every day), i decided to create a custom one.

Based on "Android Glow" from UOTKitchen, i modified it for GingerVillain.

If you like it, use it.

Suggestions, tell me.
