Hello!

I have installed this rom, i love this rom but i can not play movies, what can i to ?

Thx snoop
[Desire Android Development] teffers:
It wasn't previously but I've now changed it NEVER to test it.
[Desire Android Development] friedkimchi:
what format of videos are you trying to play?

I use vplayer which can play almost every format. Another good alternative is rockplayer.

I actually don't like kimchi.
[Desire Android Development] nicopilami:
Thanks for this nice answer ::cool:

Do not blame me until you know why i put my question here... :mad:

- I came to ask my question here because I got my DHD just a few days ago, and before I used to come on this forum, as I owned a "classic" Desire model...

- I discovered the Villain ROM on this forum, and no information about it on DHD forums...

Bye

Nico
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
Try the actual villainrom site.. I think they are working on aosp for desire HD.. not too sure tho :)
[Desire Android Development] Bucci:
still had lot of problems with 0.8 version, there was not possible to install big apk files, somethimes fc of launcher pro plus 0.8.2, somethimes fc of market (need to say that 0.7 was more unstable than 0.8)

reverted back to 0.6
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
All fine for me.. I installed crazy snowboard (30mb app) from the market :) not had any force closes actually.. I did on 0.5 though...

Edit, did you wipe from the upgrade from 0.7 to 0.8?
[Desire Android Development] snoopman007:
I need rockplayer but dosn't work

Vplayer works perfekt thanks
[Desire Android Development] piam:
gingervillain or oxygen? whats the difference?

sorry if this has been asked before. wont let me search.
[Desire Android Development] belylal:
rockplayer works fine, you juist need to update it the first time you open it...
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Brilliant, thanks for that. Will come in handy
[Desire Android Development] Narada2XK:
I'm having an issue with the CM7 widgets. I have wireless, gps, sound, sync, data and brightness in that order. When I want to disable the data, it doesn't always grey out on the first push and probably on the second but it isn't disabled when I go check it in the phone settings. It sometimes turns back on after a reboot. The wireless goes of by itself sometimes as well.
[Desire Android Development] stringent:
Getting the USB Tethering bug still. Go to enable, Windows goes to install then fails, then it unticks itself from the phone.

Otherwise so far so good on 0.8 I can live without USB tethering for now, its nice to have to get around the work firewalls! :) Just need to see if Bluetooth works fine in my car. Will test that out when I leave today.
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
It takes a little while to turn off data. Its not instant. Are you sure you're not being too impatient (no offense intended) and you're actually turning it back on on the second push?
[Desire Android Development] BlackDragonBE:
The "original framework" mod doesn't restore everything, just the battery icon. All others are still a circle so it looks even worse now.

[Desire Android Development] BlackDragonBE:
I flashed the circlemod, I know I can reflash the whole ROM but I just need the original framework from 0.8 so all icons are stock again instead of circles.

[Desire Android Development] cezarL:
Why not redownload the ROM, pull out framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk, create an update zip with just the two, and flash it?
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Just get it from villain setup
[Desire Android Development] rPAD:
tried, dont see it there :S
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
Re-flashing the ROM is a snap and you won't loose anything. However, pay attention to your dalvik-cache size: if you moved it to the sdcard, re-flash will overwrite that setting and unpredictable behaviour will occur (bootloops, etc.). In case, remove some app, reflash, reapply the a2sd command and reinstall them.
[Desire Android Development] BlackDragonBE:
I have the ROM and I know how to get the files but I'm not sure how to make an update.zip, do I just need to arrange the folders like they are on the system and zip that?

Since Quadrant does not show 3D vids, I don't think 3D games will work (yet)...
[Desire Android Development] hannomag:
just tried asphalt on v.0.3 and let's golf 2 on v.0.2 yesterday (gameloft). I don't know if that answers your question but they worked fine. Even a lot faster than on froyo (stock). The only little bug, after leaving the game it shows a force close.
[Desire Android Development] vnvman:
Only quadrant is messed, 3d games work pretty good ;)
[Desire Android Development] Shekka:
Hello, I have a problem with connecting my Desire to any Bluetooth Device. There may be a problem with "pairing" to a bluetooth device. Tested with my iMac and my Parrot Bluetooth Car Kit. But I used the v0.2 Version. Does anyone can find the same problem?

If the Bluetooth problem is resolved, it is a perfect ROM for me.

Thank You. Great job, Richard
[Desire Android Development] Bucci:
so 0.3 works perfect (wipe is damaging my brain... to setup all phone again and again :-) ) but unfortunatelly Navigon still force close...

Network location works perfect
[Desire Android Development] vnvman:
Aw noes! :(

Damn i really wonder what's wrong with it then...
[Desire Android Development] Bucci:
the same for me (there is missing sync settings in menu) in 0.3 in 0.2 it worked
[Desire Android Development] Bucci:
it looks like a Navigon problem (tested my bought and also all older trial versions) all the same - fc

I contacted Navigon about compatability question
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
The nfc app is there accidently (copied from the deodexed samsung for the gapps (networklocation)). The rom is 100% compiled from source by me on my computer ( except the gapps of course).

You can extract the Tag app before flashing or delete it if youre phone has s-off.
[Desire Android Development] RedXon:
Everything works fine, but I have a huge battery drain.Display is allways at ~70% although i turn it off most of the time... is that a comon error or should I try something else?
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Just install facebook from market.
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
But how is your battery life. Dont be fooled by the numbers you see. The numbers ( or how they are calculate) are very different compared to a sense rom. This is defined in a power_profile.xml somewhere and can be changed.
[Desire Android Development] Johannn90:
For my exactly the same. After 12 hours (and 8 hours sleeping) my battery is now 40%. My display "drain" is also 74% (high)..

I think it is normal?
[Desire Android Development] DaNiEl FrEnCh:
facebook sync isnt working for me, the fb app doesn't offer it on setup and when i click it in the contacts app its returns nothing, anyone else having this issue?
[Desire Android Development] thanku:
No Video Play back

Many Thanks for the rom

1>. I am not able to play any video using any video player such as rockplayer arcmedia etc

2>. Battery drain is very high just like the real inflation

Thanks one again for all the hard work you do
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
Try to clear settings of app.
[Desire Android Development] DaNiEl FrEnCh:
that didn't work either, dyou think i should do a wipe then flash it again?
[Desire Android Development] GrandPuba2000:
Running the 0.2 version since I don't want to wipe atm.

No battery drain at all ( maybe it has even better battery usage then the Defrost roms for now )

Intermediate / heavy use ( since 06:00 this morning ) surfing, xda app, gmail sync for two accounts, reading mail an d replying with slideIT etc. some widgets which sync every x minutes, 78% now 11:00 )

My display also shows around 70% usage BTW.
[Desire Android Development] Bucci:
just install again??? as installed for 1st time all FB settings available exept Contact sync

Done, try this... Nandroid first, even though the next step is to take flash the rom, just in case :)

Market stop working

Hi, great ROM but i have noticed if i flash a new kernel such as Richard Trips or vorkernel latest - the UI reloads itself at the point where a download finishes and its says installing in notification area

Weird
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Bit of testing. Mine turns it off but not always on. I don't think it ticks the data enabled box, maybe it bypasses it
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
How many tests did you do? I just turned it on and off about ten times and all times it worked fine.. :confused:

[Desire Android Development] superflykoerby:
Hey, first of all this is a great rom!

but i have problems with livewallpapers.

if i download other wallpapers and install the wallpapers all is ok, but when i try to activate one of them the superuserapp terminates the process.

is it a bug or do i something wrong?
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
Only mount the mass storage, and I usually have to wait a couple of minutes for it to show on my laptop.. otherwise I'm out if ideas.. what recovery is it? Clockworkmod?
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
What live wallpapers are they? From the market?

Could they be on your SD card (google style)?

Ok resolved that issue, did the partitioning, first a primary one which is FAT32 and around 14gb and the other one also FAT32 and around 1gb .. and the PC shows the primary one which I think should be right .. then I transfered all the information on the SD card and when booted into the rom, the SD card is unavailable, under the storage in setting .. did i do sth wrong ?
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
fat32? Are you trying an old data2sd version?

Great ROM. Thanks.

However, I really miss the smart dial option of stock ROM.

I'm using Dialer One but it can not compare.

Please advice

Thanks,

[Desire Android Development] danarama:
That Dialler is HTC. You have to be prepared to lose all things HTC with AOSP roms.

This functionality is not in the Android dialer. You could just press the Search hard key

I have a question:

If I take a NANdroid backup, backup my SD card, partition my SD card using ROM manager and then restore the SD card and then restore the NANdroid backup, is it going to work ?
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
Yes, that is what i was suggesting yesterday matey... all should be fine if you follow that.
[Desire Android Development] amir88:
I just cant mount my SD card in recovery mode. Get this error: E: Cant mount /dev/block/mmblk0 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0p1).

When I reboot into the system, under setting the SD card as not available and I cant format the SD card in the recovery mode as it says you have to mount it first. any ideas ? :(
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
That's strange now, as it was mounting before, wasn't it? What did you use to create the partition, gparted? I'd suggest using a card reader of some sort to make the sure the card is still readable.. I had a card that the first time I plugged it in for mass storage, into Windows, it told me I had to format it as there were errors. Maybe this is the same as yours?

What card is it, I know you said 16gb but what make and class?
[Desire Android Development] amir88:
well, I made a huge mistake while doing the partition, I used EASEUS software as a person suggested in here, I created two partitions but both of them were FAT32 and this happened. I dont have the adaptor to use the card reader, I think the card is readable cuz I just mounted it and formated it to two partitions one FAT32 which is primary and the other one EXT3. that went well but my phone still cant mount the SD card !!
[Desire Android Development] Marsbar:
Really? What doesn't Dialer One do? I've been 100% happy with it.
[Desire Android Development] EViollet:
I don't see why. I used Easeaus to create 1 FAT32 partition and 1 ext2 partition and it worked flawlessly

In which order did you create your partitions?

FAT32 must be primary 1. And EXT2/3/4 must be primary 2.
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
How did you just create the two partitions, through Rom manager? It's weird that the phone can't mount the SD card.. when u go to settings and storage, under the available space it says unavailable? And an option to mount the SD card is unavailable too?
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Try Gparted. Its longer process but much better IMO.

Mount in recovery as USB storage, boot inGparted Live CD. Flatten the entire card (remove partitions) and reformat the entire card as FAT32 so all data is wiped too.

Boot phone and see if it mounts. If so, go back to Gparted and finish the job
[Desire Android Development] amir88:
no not rom manager, the software which i said. yeah under setting is unavailable and phone cant mount it, it even doesnt give me the option for mounting ..:(
[Desire Android Development] amir88:
the problem is, cant even mount the SD card now !! in both recovery and the ROM !
[Desire Android Development] amir88:
yeah i did it in the same order ! i did EXT3
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
What recovery are you using? Please don't use ClockworkMod 3.x or Amon_RA 2.x, they're bugged to death.

I found ClockworkMod v2.5.1.8 to be the last usable one.

To test the card readability, please use a Linux LiveCD (like Ubuntu), boot into it, connect your Desire, boot it to regular OS and activate USB disk mode: you should see two external disks pop up into Linux, ont FAT32 and the other ext3.

If that is not the case, I suggest two ways:

1. Download the aforementioned recovery, flash it and use it to partition your sdcard;

2. Obtain a USB card reader and use it under Linux to partition your sdcard.

These methods always worked for me.
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
In recovery it wont mount as "USB mass storage"? What error? Can you format SD card from recovery?
[Desire Android Development] amir88:
thnx for the help, but when I connect it in windows 7, I dont get the mounting option, u think ill get the option under ubuntu ?
[Desire Android Development] amir88:
i get this error: E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0) and no cant format under recovery !
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
There was this error earlier danfrance, does this mean he is mounting the SD card and not as usb storage?
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
He got that message from recovery or from adb? Ive seen that in adb but not in recovery (i use clockwork myself)
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
You stated that you was able to re-partition the sdcard FAT32+ext3; are you still unable to access the FAT32 partition from Windows?

I think that using a partition app through the phone USB interface is not a good idea, please obtain a card reader and use it.

If that still won't work, consider a defective sdcard.
[Desire Android Development] kibbsnk:
hi love the ROM but i have an issue in the Villain setup i have the following

GINGERVillain 0.8 for HTC Desire

File/data/changelog.txt does not exists

how can i fix this because it won't install the kernels updates but will install the mods
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
Either reinstall the Rom, or create an update.zip with the folder data and then place the changelog.txt in there. The changelog.txt is in the data folder of the Rom, if u look.
[Desire Android Development] amir88:
i got it in the recovery mode
[Desire Android Development] kibbsnk:
thanks can i just reinstall do i just need to wipe cache and dalvik before installing
[Desire Android Development] amir88:
ohh yeah im able to format, partition and access my SD card through PC .. but in the phone it doesnt recognize the SD card and doesnt mount it either. but throught windows everything is fine, its just in the phone. BUT I get to access my SD card while im in the recovery mode, and not when im in the actual phone OS.
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
Which recovery and version are u using?
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
Unless you have modified the Rom.zip in anyway, you shouldn't need to wipe.. however, take a nandroid just incase it messes up.. you could also get. the kernels from here though, http://xda.richardtrip.org/ginger/ (may be easier)
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
So, let's recall a bit:

1. In recovery mode (which one are you using?) you can mount the sdcard via USB and see it on your PC (FAT32 partition only as you're using Windows) -- you use this mode to partition the sdcard from Windows;

2. In recovery mode you are unable to partition the sdcard;

3. In full ROM, you can't access the sdcard in any way from the phone;

4. As a consequence of point 3, in full ROM you can't mount the sdcard via USB.

If these points are correct, the question is: has this behavior started.... exactly when?
[Desire Android Development] amir88:
clockworkmod recovery v2.5.0.7
[Desire Android Development] amir88:
yes they are all correct .. using clockworkmod v2.5.0.7

it happened when I tried to partition my SD card in windows, then I accidentally made two fat32 partitions instead of one fat32 and one ext3 !
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
Got it. So, first of all try to upgrade your recovery to 2.5.1.8 (again:

NOT

3.0.0.5!); after that, if you will still be unable to partition your sdcard, please obtain a card reader. ;)

[Desire Android Development] shadowgolf:
No. it refers to N1 table, and as I've no idea what that is I assumed I didn't have it. So I need to do it then? What does that mean for apps already installed? Will I have to do a factory wipe first?

Thanks for your help.
[Desire Android Development] rPAD:
nothing happens to ur apps, it just changes the cache location
[Desire Android Development] KuliX:
And you don't have to do a factory wipe first!
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Nothing specific to the N1 table. Apps2sd is not set as default to move dalvik cache too, regardless of whatever partition layout / table being used.

Just download terminal emulator.

open it

Type "su" and press enter

Then type "a2sd cachesd" and press enter. Done.
