hey guys,

I already read couple times so far that people with gv2.4 are experiencing a different bluetooth behavior when disconnecting from a bt device (solution was to first disconnect from phone and not from the bt device, I think).

I use my phone via bt in my car to talk and listen to music thru radio speakers and since 2.4 I noticed that I can't switch thru songs anymore when I use the back/forward buttons on the steering wheel.

can anyone else confirm this issue?

greetz,

Is anyone UK based willing to help with a little troubleshooting? If so download the new BBC news app, and try live streaming. Mine goes blank after a couple of seconds, and I get no response. Thanks in advance :) James.
[Desire Android Development] paprkut:
My screen goes blank when I wake with the bottom buttons. Anyone else having this issue?
[Desire Android Development] decat:
I think the where's my power app is freaking out. It gave me a taskbar 40% usage all day and still got 70% batterylife after being disconnected since this morning 7am. Seems quite ok no ?
[Desire Android Development] mr_clean5953:
Seems pretty normal. I unplug at 6am and by 7 or so I have 80 left but that's on Manus latest havs kernel

yep me to :s, i have disable "old tv animation" but it still stays (i'm using trackpad wake also, could that cause it?)
[Desire Android Development] gwak:
Hi

Downloading it now will give it a try
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
I searched BBC news, I downloaded the first app there.. there is a button that says live at the top.. when pressing that it takes me to a black screen for a second, and then it starts to stream...
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
It is old style tv animation.for when.turning.the phone on... I can confirm that it stopped the issue for me...
[Desire Android Development] emirhan87:
Hey everyone! I have a quick question for those who have an idea about the solution.

Every time I reboot my phone, my default app setting seems to be resetted. It asks me for my default SMS app etc. JuiceDefender settings seesms to be missing everytime I reboot my Desire.

Very frustrating.. Any ideas?
[Desire Android Development] EViollet:
HI.

Check that they aren't installed on the SD card.
[Desire Android Development] paprkut:
Seems to be working for me.
[Desire Android Development] mistake37:
On my phone, the problem is still there w/out that animation thingy. :(
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
Well you seem to be the only one.. just to confirm, settings / Cyanogenmod settings / display / screen on animation is unticked...

As that is what foxes the problem for everyone else, but yourself...

Edit: this is screen on then off very quickly, but lights stay on and can still feel haptic feedback bug, yea..?
[Desire Android Development] emirhan87:
Checked. Both Handcent SMS and JuiceDefender are installed on phone memory. By the way I've been using Handcent for months, JuiceDefender for 3 days and this behaviour is here since last week.

Never wiped since DeFroST. I'm thinking about a fresh start.. Full wipe, then carefully restore apps one by one via Titanium.
[Desire Android Development] Jameswgm:
That's frustrating; mine goes to a blank screen indefinitely. Reverted to stock rooted Froyo as a test and it works fine. I think perhaps a re-flash of stock 2.4 is in order. Might fix the call delay I'm still getting, fingers crossed anyway!
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
I did do my test on a strong WiFi signal... if it makes a difference..
[Desire Android Development] Milamber:
Unplug charger and turn phone off, then connect charger with phones still off, is the LED now orange?
[Desire Android Development] mauricewal:
Yep now it is.
[Desire Android Development] Milamber:
Good leave it to go green, then the battery will be fully charged.

There is a battery calibration thread somewhere that tells you to do just this.
[Desire Android Development] chrisvr4:
Right went into system/framework and copied framework-res.apk and put it on my sd card but cant see it when i plug my phone into lappy to browse for it ? i even renamed it to .zip and still dont show up but can see it on my phone using efile manager lol
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
Here you go, standard framework for GingerVillain 0.6 attached. Now you can download from the webpage and miss out the phone! :)
[Desire Android Development] raybb3uk:
Hi Brian,

Yes I see the & problem too on 0.5

[Desire Android Development] louisebb:
It happen to me too!
[Desire Android Development] mbroeders:
Richard mentioned this in a previous post. Disabling the screen-on animation helps. You could always try a different governor, but I'm not sure if that will fix your problem...
[Desire Android Development] paprkut:

I use havs bfs 1113 @875 with interactive governor.... anyone else had problems?
[Desire Android Development] paprkut:
I agree. Nice suprise.
[Desire Android Development] breenod:
Hi guys,

I'm loving this rom, best Gingerbread rom so far for me.

Only issue I have is the screen lock sounds don't seem to work. Does anybody else have this issue? I wiped fully before flashing.
[Desire Android Development] crnHR:
any way to edit power widgets in notification menu ?
[Desire Android Development] frisi:
i really like this rom!

but... any chance to see a fm radio?? It's seems that this is the only gingerbread rom without the fm radio :(
[Desire Android Development] BriEE:
Richard, can you bring back or at least make option of the smoother scrolling with lower quality, I'll happily donate $5-$10 if you do this :)
[Desire Android Development] panos_ts:
I installed the ROM yesterday... A few hours ago, I tried to change the wallpaper, and suddenly the phone stopped responding, until I saw the "VillainROM, free your android" screen. I had to take the battery off, in order to restart it.
[Desire Android Development] hasse_e:
Yes, and that´s very good :)

Some people say it doesn´t work, but on my phone it does since 0.6
[Desire Android Development] tdumez:
BT issue

I have exactly the same problem. My device finds other bluetooth devices in it's range, but when I start the pairing process I can't succesfully connect with another device.

As I use this for connecting to my BT car kit this is a rather important one for me, so I would be very glad if this could be solved in future update...

Furthermore GREAT ROM!

GPS Issue

Hey,

have a tiny problem with the GPS in my GV since 2.3

regardless the app i'm using it behaves strange

either it does not pop the GPS icon in the notification area (GPS enabled in settings) or gets a GPS lock but after few whiles (less than a minute) the phone starts to think i am not moving.

now i have GV2.4, latest radio and the issue prevails.

tryed all the kernels in the GV setup including one of the EViolet's. same behavior.

as a reference i use Sygic Aura, CoPilot and GPS Status.

in all the apps it behaves the same.

Any ideas?
[Desire Android Development] leader288:
I don't know of anyone has noticed this, when anyone calls me, the phone will take like 4 rings before the screen comes on and the answer screen appears. Is there any way of speeding this up?

Happens like this:

1st ring >phone vibrates

2nd ring > phone button lights up

3rd ring > phone screen comes on, shows lockscreen (not answering screen)

4th ring > answer screen appears, only then can I answer the phone call.
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
Just a couple of questions... do you leave the gps on or turn it on everytime you want to use it?

Everyone who has had gps problems was told to get gps status and wait for a lock... however, I see that you already have it...
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
Sometimes this happens to me... maybe this is to do with the screen animation and not turning the screen on? It could also be the 128 kernel (which is why Google never used it? Doubt it though)..

Anyway, there is an options in settings/call settings to use the Trackball to answer phone call, maybe that would help?

Does this happen every phone call?
[Desire Android Development] lexxa:
i have it on constantly.

the only time the GPS is off is during the night (switched off with llama event) but obviously i do not need GPS when i sleep :)

GPS status behaves wrong in two different ways

1 - indefinetely looking for lock (tryed it for cca 20 minutes until i gave up)

2 - locks but does not report any location change (tested today during my drive to work)
[Desire Android Development] azz_kikr:
me to... :(

and no the haptic feedback doesnt work and the screen stay black (not even briefly on)
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
Then I'm guessing it is the governor, are you using smartass? If so that is the problem...
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
Ok, well can. you disable the app that disables the gps... the gps is only even used when you see the icon. I leave mine on constantly (not turned it off since Defrost), and I have seen no errors..maybe it is that app that is causing the problem?
[Desire Android Development] lexxa:
Thanks.

Will give it a try.

Nevertheless it does not check timewise. I have been using llama (and switching on/off stuff) for longer period of time than i have my issues with the gps.
[Desire Android Development] Vaedryn:
i see we can dl 2.5 :)

Install :)

OMG , Haptic on lockscreen is off now , this is so nice :) First look 2.5 works fine :)

Thank you Richard :)

IP renew button somewhere in the settings or so. Would be my guess anyway.
[Desire Android Development] lexxa:
it seems it solved the problem. curious.
[Desire Android Development] kherio:
Does this rom the quiet hours?

like CM7?

thx in advance
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
Yes..
[Desire Android Development] emirhan87:
well the point is gps sometimes gets scrambled from tuning it on/off.

never touched gps settings for months = never had a problem with it

advice is the same: leave it on. gps won't eat up any battery unless you're using it.
[Desire Android Development] leader288:
Yeah, I guess its a workaround. And yes, I'm using 128mhz -245mhz interactive and it happens with every call.
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
Maybe turn off the profile and see if it happens? or at least bring up the 245Mhz? it could be because there is so much happening, with the phone speaker making the ring, vibration, the actual phone call, radio in use, and then turning the screen on... I dont use profiles in setCPU... turned them off a while ago, not noticed any difference! :)
[Desire Android Development] pcardenas:
Hi,

where are you downloading v2.5 from? Villain Setup? I can't find any update... :(

Thanks,
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
All of Richards work is found here - http://xda.richardtrip.org/ - look under ginger directory...
[Desire Android Development] pcardenas:
Downloading!! :)

Thank you!
[Desire Android Development] MisterMooth:
Is that 2.5 the final version?
[Desire Android Development] mattmanwrx:
Well its not officially released, so you can wait until the front page is updated or flash now...

I doubt there will be any errors with the ROM though...
[Desire Android Development] kherio:
Great News ;)

Just wondering if it could be possible to include in those options some checks to disable also the GPS, Data connection and Wifi... It could be an improvement... :D
[Desire Android Development] emirhan87:
I've been using SetCPU with 3 profiles (charging, screen off, battery trigger) for a couple of months. Deleted all profiles last week, now I'm only using ondemand governor with 128-998MHz range.

Phone starts ringing instantly.
[Desire Android Development] redrum781:
That's right. It's "official" when Richard publishes it on xda and villainsetup, so we're like rc testers :)

Running smooth as well. I have no call delay with rt 2.2 havs anymore.

Ev's 2.0 Havs axi kernel drop wifi when screen off but I was using it on 2.4 because I had call delay with rt's 2.2 kernel.

Thanks Richard! :D
[Desire Android Development] lexxa:
interesting.

i upgraded as usual

1, nandroid backup

2. complete wipe

3. install rom

4. install A2SDkiller (sibere's i believe)

5. reboot

6. revovery -> install Data2SD

7. reboot

8. restore data

9. restore cache

10. restore sd-ext

since 1.9 this works like a charm. upgrade to 2.5 went ok but for some reason it just didnt migrate my settings and apps. will give it 2nd. try when i get back from work. or i could wait until richard releases it officially
[Desire Android Development] hyperteiL:
Anyone knows if there is a possibility like a flashable zip to get a transparent statusbar and pull-down menu?

[Desire Android Development] emirhan87:
Why didn't you just flash it over the top? Without wiping etc. Just take a nandroid backup in case of a problem. That's all you need IMHO.
[Desire Android Development] lexxa:
correct but the data2sd doesn't work this way. and my 400mb of apps is abit more than my desire can cope
[Desire Android Development] Leeyron:
Which version of the a2sdkiller script do you use? Cause everytime i flash it on gv 2.5 i get in a bootloop. I use a2sdkiller_v11GB.
[Desire Android Development] lexxa:
V11_GB. No bootloop with the steps mentioned above

Will give it a go with the ReInstaller once i have a while...
[Desire Android Development] cpt.bert:
Fifa10 doesnt work...? On 2.4 and 2.5 the game starts with the menu but when the actual game should start it shows the homescreen without a message or something...can this be fixed somehow?
[Desire Android Development] lexxa:
ReInstaller_1.3_GB did not do the job.

nandroid restore.

considering switching to CM7 HBOOT

all the symptoms make me think the 2.5 system is not aware of either the /data or /sd-ext portions of the sdcard (nontheless the storage is correctly shown as 1.95 GB partition)

i guess i will have to figure out what is what in the /data, /cache and /sd-ext

any advice will be much appreciated
[Desire Android Development] decat:
Hello, I'm quite new to this rom.

Where can I find these? Can't find them in the openingpost nor on Richards site.

I'm coming from Leedroid where I had and 512 ext3 partition which was an extention of the internal memory.

Since a couple of days I'm running GV and I'm starting to miss this extension.

Does anyone can explain me what I have to do in order to use my ext3 partition as extenion of the internal memory?

I remember installing something like S2E some days ago but I can't find it in my apps anymore. :s

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] noobandroid:
the a2sd is automatic, all you have to do is ensure that all apps are in internal memory
[Desire Android Development] decat:
OK thanks.

But I got only 32mb left while I got a 1gb ext3 partition where's only 100mb used.

In Leedroid the ext3 partition was a direct extention of the internal memory.

How can I get the same setup for this rom?

This is what I have now:

Re SD memory

Hi

I am not sure if this helps. I wiped my cache etc when updating GV2.5. This resets the dalvik cache to internal. You have to reset it to sd card doing the following from a terminal

su

a2sd cachesd

This freed up space on internal memory by putting programs on sd card
[Desire Android Development] vippie:
Thanks for the update Richard!

Got a simple question: does every update containers a kernel too and is the standard kernel HAVS or SVS?
[Desire Android Development] devcager:
Hey,

got a problem. My SD has broken so I bought a new one. I had some problems with partition but finally I managed to partition it. Now I wanted to update GingerVillain but clowork recovery shows me a picture of exclamation mark and writes "E: signification verification fail, Installation aborted".

Please, could you help me? Whatever I do I always ends here with this text :(
[Desire Android Development] Vaedryn:

[Desire Android Development] jult:
No they're not. k9-mail is much leaner, has a tiny footprint compared to the humongous Gmail and Email apk's, plus it has ALL its features combined in one app. I don't understand what anyone could have against k-9, it's the best mobile mail app I've ever seen.
[Desire Android Development] jazzmega:
Will the apps installed in the ext4 partition by default?

Thanks!
[Desire Android Development] decat:
I don't think so, you need to run some scripts.

See earlier post from lexxa.
[Desire Android Development] EViollet:
Maybe because K9 doesn't do the same things as Gmail?

I tested both and switched back to the standard app because K9 just didn't do the job.
[Desire Android Development] vofh:
It's the opposite jult the majority don't understand why you just cannot understand that k9 might be great for you but not for them. I don't think everyone needs are the same as yours hell I don't use k9 and I don't think anybody's email requirements are the same as mine but that's the beauty of open source you love k9 so use it and leave us to use what we want :D
[Desire Android Development] decat:
Just read the last +- 700 posts but couldn't find an answer.

Villain setup is giving me following kernels:

2.2 HAVS 1113Mhz + CFS (900mV min)

2.2 SVS + CFS 1113Mhz

2.2 SVS + CFS 1190Mhz Not stable on all

2.2 WiFi Pm Fast Module

What's the difference between these?

Phone info says i'm running 2.6.38.4 defrost-bravo+ #872
[Desire Android Development] vofh:
These kernels can be overclocked using setcpu plus if you search in google you would have found a answer to your question for eg this one http://www.incredibleforum.com/forum/htc-incredible-hacks/7585-what-havs.html

Sorry about that it was just a quick example try this url for a better explanation http://vaelpak.vaelek.com/2011/04/kernels-explained/

hope it better answers your question as to the difference between the kernels, I am not able to clarify what the default kernel is that comes with the ROM but I'm sure richard or one of the other devels can better answer that.

CM7 hboot & Gingervillain2.5

I'm using GV2.5 with cm7 hboot and all working smoothly and without errors. Before flashing rom.zip I swapped locations of couple of files... I opened GingerVillain2.5.zip with IZArc(sure you can use some other archiver)and then I made app-folder inside data-folder and moved moved some "not so important apk files" from system/app folder to data/app folder.

Atleast livewallpapers, youtube, titanium... and couple more i can't remember.

You need to get System folders uncompressed size "smaller" than 130 MB. Otherwise ROM won't boot.

Then flashed it.. everything works and i have plenty of room for apps in internal memory.

problems with storm8 games and villain 2.5

I installed ginger villain 2.5 yesterday and know i have problems with all storm8 games.

Yesterday morning i played the games on villain 2.4 with no problems, but after the update in all storm8 the screens are build over each other. Storm8 games are webbased games. I have no problems with other games or using the browser.

When i click in storm8 games on a menu and than scroll the old screen is displayed under the new screen.
