Cheers guys but I managed to sort it. Formatted the sd card using minitool partition wizard and created an ext 4 as opposed to ext 3 and voila...she works again :-))

Don't you just love it when a plan comes together!! :)
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
I would also suggest making the ext again, but using gparted live cd... the minitool partition.wizard is a windows program, and windows doesn't know what a ext is.. it may be more hassle in the future than it would be now...

What is the manufacturing date of your Desire? If it's from the first major batch (around 03-2010) chances are you need a new 'board' in your Desire. Most ISPs do it for you for free if you claim it isn't working and crashes too often (i.e. they know about the issue..). Ever since I had my htc Desire's core chipset/board re-newed everything changed for me and this phone (with the same kernels).
[Desire Android Development] Large Hadron:
Try PB99IMG.zip - not .ZIP, because it is case sensitive.
[Desire Android Development] lexxa:
Interesting suggestion. I guess the main advantage of gparted is it can align the partition. A bit performance increase but nothing sensational...
[Desire Android Development] eldinnie:
I Thought there will be. At first they posted there won't and later they said there will be (and rolling out next weeks)
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
They have been bck and forth with this update! as discussed here - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1041383 - but the last post on that thread points here http://blog.gsmarena.com/htc-to-rem...desire-will-let-you-download-them-separately/ - saying they will bring it to the Desire, but with "missing apps". Wonder if they actually do...?!
[Desire Android Development] eldinnie:
As I understood it GB + Sense was too big for internal memory for the desire. I guess they'll rip things like Peep etc. from the ROM to fit it in.
[Desire Android Development] po_jo_45:
Just got one of my colleges at work to make the move to GingerVillian and he is loving it!
[Desire Android Development] street675:
Thanks for the comment.

I purchased my desire around that time. but where can i find that manufacturing date?

I changed kernel and my phone is ok now.
[Desire Android Development] jult:
The beginning of the serial number shows the DoM (of 2010 that I know of), as in HT03 means it is manufactured in March 2010. The S/N can be found behind where the battery rests.
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
Thanks for this info... this coincides with when I bought mine (not sat in the shop for long).. to further test this, my friend just got one the other week and I'll check what his says... :)
[Desire Android Development] devcager:
Hi,

got a problem with speed while opening apps. When I wipe my device everything works fine but after couple of weeks the phone gets much more slower, especialy when opening apps. Is this normal or is there a problem with some settings/apps I use?

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
I haven't wiped. for a while, just updated and I know people haven't wiped since the Defrost 2.2 Rom, so I would be inclined to say it is just you unfortunately.. unless others can comment...
[Desire Android Development] devcager:
Could it be the number of apps I have (I have 88 I think it is not so much). I thought it could be Juice Defender which set low CPU speed when the screen is off, but it does the same when it's stopped. :/ I get this again and again. So why does wipe help?

Officially my favourite rom so far. Many thanks to all involved :-)

Why has been webkit acceleration removed? It was one of the features I love the most. Is there any more big improvement between 2.6 & 2.7? If not, I will stay in 2.6 to be able to use Webkit acceleration for a time
[Desire Android Development] mkrstf:
in general where can i find changelog for gv (other source than opening posts)?
[Desire Android Development] jult:
Market broken..

For about a week or two I can't get the Market to even start anymore.

No idea why.

It says:

"Attention

An error has occurred. Please

try again later."

and then has an [OK] button.

What's up with this? Anyone else has this? I use the standard GV 2.6
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
It's in villain setup on the opening page :)

Of course there is; You can kill all unneeded processes way sooner than the software timers will, which will save you battery when you require every drop of power it has available.
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
Ok, you believe that...

I won't argue with u, u can keep it... however, there are many respected people on this and other forums which will tell you it is not needed and only causes more battery drain....

By all means carry on using it... its not my phone....

Use system panel thats much better an he is right it does cause more drain it is constantly closing apps so it take me more power to close than it takes to have them in background

Hello.

Just changed from DeFrost to Villain.Installed with full wipe/factory reset. So far so good. Nice work!

Wondering about the dictionaries tho. I have selected English(UK) and Portugues(PT). Still, the only dic that works is the Eng one. Even if i only select PT. Anyway i can fix this!?

Thanks in advance.

There probably isn't a Portuguese dictionary yet. Check the OP, in the 0.5 changelog you can see more dictionaries have been added, but I can't see a Portuguese one. So it probably isn't there yet. You'll have to be patient I guess :) Or you can always install the old one.

Hi, I have the n1 table, and although it gives more data memory, I'm not really seeing a difference... I'm still using apps2sd and have about 400mb been used on my ext partition... so it can be good use, if your not using a2sd...

Power wake

Hello,

Sorry I've read pages and pages of this thread but theres stacks of it.

Has anyone else found the power button really unresponsive when trying to wake the phone ? I find it takes 4 or 5 presses before it wakes up. Never had that issue before.... weird.

Other than that the ROM is good although I'm not sure battery life has been much better really but it's cool.

[Desire Android Development] jult:
It has nothing to do with believing something, it is fact. In addition, way too many power-abusing software packages like to 'phone home' every chance they get, either for location services or other user-data-gathering, they abuse my privacy and make decisions without my consent. I don't like software that does that, and certainly not in the background when I'm trying hard to save up batt.power for the rest of the day away from a charger etc.

Sure, if you want google, facebook, twitter, news and mail polling to drain your battery and reveal your location and private/personal stuff every few minutes, stop using task managers or task killers. I'd like to stay in control of what my phone sends out, and why/when it wastes my battery or not.

My two favorite apps that handle autoruns and such are;

Gemini App Manager (free)

ES Task Manager
[Desire Android Development] jult:
ES Task Manager does not do that, and NOT having a heavy app running does not drain power, you must be insane if you buy that sales-pitch from google and the likes. Try it out and think for yourself, do your own measurements, you'll find that those claiming background tasks use less power when they're running than when they're not are either paid off by some large company to get you to buy into the lies or have no idea what they're writing about.
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
Well, if you kill the app that is trying to access internet, it will just reopen and access the internet...! As said I wont argue, carry on using it... But isnt Juice Defender for what you described? lol

Darn, you got me, Google paid me out... now what do I do?

The app opens, task killer kills it, it opens (as android wants it to open), task killer kills it, it opens, kills it, opens, kills, open, kills, why not let it open, connect, stop.

here is more of us that "Google have paid off"... http://androidforums.com/htc-desire/161151-should-you-use-task-killer.html

Hmm, maybe we didnt get paid off, but are talking sense...

Multi Mount SD stopped working after upgrading to 2.7

Does anyone know if there is an issue with Multi Mount SD in this version? I upgraded from Villain 2.4 to 2.7 (yes, I skipped a few :p) and everything seems to work perfect except for Multi Mount, which worked in 2.4. I tried to clear app data and uninstall, re-install but that didn't help. It starts but immediately closes without an error (no FC, just closes).

It's not directly a big deal since I do not transfer a lot of large files to this phone and it works with the regular mount (albeit a bit slow compared to multi mount) but it would be nice to have it working again.

Thanks!
