What about settings>About phone?

Whats the default kernel nowadays? I use eviollet and it shows up as this in about phone.
[Desire Android Development] vwolsink:
About phone tells the same as 'uname -a': 2.6.37.3-defrost-bravo+

That is de default kernel for this rom, as far as I know. Whatever kernel I try to install, it stays like this.

EDIT:

I just booted into bootloader and it said my device is S-ON. I think this has something to do with it :)

I was under the impression that if Clockwork recovery and eveything was installed, my device would be S-OFF.

I rooted with unrevoked 3. I tried using unrevoked forever, but it said 'Unsupported system'. It is necessary to do the additional Alpharev mod manually, or did something go wrong earlier in the process?

EDIT2:

Ok, did the Alpharev mod (I'm a bit impatient offcourse :P) and I now have S-OFF. But still, it isn't working...

Thanks for helping me out.
[Desire Android Development] ranasrule:
Richard any idea how to fix the GPS issue ?
[Desire Android Development] virus2013:
No need to be s-off to change kernel. If the flashing process goes well, you have your new kernel. It's just that they are all on the same base, just tweaked a bit, and so they all have the same name in the settings

I had the same gps issue. In maps or navigation the symbol was short blinking and then gone. No satellites or gps fix. My gps has been activated for the last month permantly.

I had no luck switching the gps on and off in the settings menu. I solved the problem in my case with deactivating and activating the gps with the symbol in the status bar and a reboot.

But only for the homescreen,not for the Browser,keyboard etc.
[Desire Android Development] KuliX:
Had the same problem after upgrade. Clearing data wouldn't help.

So I deleted the market through TB (I'm S-off), installed it again from VillainSetup, cleared data once more - then it works.

But don't ask me why... ;-)
[Desire Android Development] KuliX:
I'm using GoLauncher and I can enable/disable homescreen rotation in launcher settings.

Maybe you have to check your launcher settings...
[Desire Android Development] amir88:
My homescreen doesnt rotate :(
[Desire Android Development] amir88:
Sorry im noob, but how too do that ? Where is the battery stats ?
[Desire Android Development] Large Hadron:
Boot into recovery (press the "volume down" button while booting, then select "recovery" from the menu). Once in clockworkmod recovery, look under the "advanced" menu. You'll find the option to clear battery stats there.

(As rootSU said, just with more words).

Thank you :)
[Desire Android Development] richardtrip:
I checked the gps on my phone a dozen times and it was alright here all the time on 1.5 (never have gps enabled by default and it worked for all programs (igo,maps,gps test)).

Last test is a clean install (again) and hopefully it isn't working then so i can check things :-)

Also working fine on a clean install :mad:

thnx for the help Richard :)

just want to know should I download 1.8 HAVS or 1.8 SVS ?
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Whichever you want to. Do you know the difference?

Static Voltage Scaling - Each CPU frequency has a specific Voltage of power based on a table. Frequency x is Voltage z (always)

Hybrid Adaptive System - Each CPU frequency has a range of voltage based on a similar table. Frequency x is voltage y to z. Whether it is y (lowest) or z (highest) depends on Device temperature.

Because HAVS runs on a range, it can go lower than SVS and potentially save more power. If HAVS is stable on your device, get it.

I'm getting GPS issues too, normally if I had issues I'd just reboot ensuring it was on but now that's not solving it. Had it where it came on briefly, then the GPS icon permanently disappeared even when in either Nav or GPS Status. Also had it where the GPS icon would not go away even when I exited Nav. Might try a full wipe before reflashing 1.5, I've just been flashing these updates over the top since 1.1.
[Desire Android Development] luhu:
Thanks for your response!

But it did not work for me.

I have

1. removed Vending.apk via adb

2. rebooted

3. flashed market 2.3.4 via recovery

I looked in "menu - applications - ... - Market", but I can't tap at the "delete data" button!!! its dark! :eek:
[Desire Android Development] amir88:
thnx !! i'll give HAVS a try for now ;)

yeah happened to me few times since 1.4 i guess .. just press menu > manage apps > and force stop the android keyboard and it should be fine !

Went back to 1.4 for now:

After wiping cache and dalvik because of not working market downloads i get a bootloop (stuck at the pink circle), so i flashed the nandroid of 1.4...

[Desire Android Development] sretlow:
I have version 1.4 installed and very happy with it. But now I have a problem that the storage for apps becomes full. The phone gives a icon on the taskbar that memory is running out. I thought everything will be stored on the SD card. How can I solve this problem besides delete some apps.
[Desire Android Development] koelspy:
Yes, with 1.4 and 1.5 I have this issue. Before every ROM install/update I do a full wipe.

With Oxygen 2.0/2.0.1 no issues.

Did you read the first post about "a2sd cachesd"?

From the first post in this thread:

Dalvik Cache will take up space on "Internal storage" by default

You can move this by running "terminal emulator" from the market and typing:

toggle off gps exit app

toggle on gps and enter app, no gps signal and no lock

reboot is needed to bring it back

EDIT:

now ive used 1.8 have svs kernel it wont stop blinking
[Desire Android Development] Staggers:
I can't say for sure. I also use EViollet's kernel, but I always leave GPS toggled on so I've not experienced the bug, so to speak. The best way to find out for sure would be to ask EViollet himself.

Sorry, I don't mean to be criticising or anything, but you have to wait for adb shell to start up before you can type that logcat command so between adb shell starting and typing logcat, you can maybe miss some entries.

If you use

adb logcat

instead...

It will return something like

-Waiting for device-

and then as soon as the device is visible, it will start the logcat ASAP.

Why are you doing this? The kitchen isn't that complicated... Some dudes need to learn! ;)
[Desire Android Development] genivos:
Hm, well, I think it has nothing to do with EViollet's kernel. As a test I decided to install the latest 1.8 HAVS from the Villain setup. The same problem still persists like I had when leaving it on, it works, when turning off/on it doesn't work anymore. I might try a full wype and flash later to see if that solves the problem.

Can't do that now .. since I am still at work ;)
[Desire Android Development] EViollet:
Hi.

Unfortunately I don't use 1.5. There seems to be a change in the way Bluetooth is toggled because "Setting Profile" couldn't toggle my Bluetooth any more. So sticking with 1.4 until the app fixes this (or until I find time to understand what's wrong... ;) )

What I can say is that with 1.4, I have a profile that toggles GPS ON/OFF at night, and it works fine. No issue with the GPS/fixes/etc. Everything works as it should.

If the issue is only with my kernels, tell me, and I'll update my GPS drivers to reflect a change in the ROM.

Anyway, I'm following the thread, so if a problem is confirmed, I'll have a look at it.
[Desire Android Development] ranasrule:
thanks a bunch:)
[Desire Android Development] gladman:
Thanks. 1.4 working again.
[Desire Android Development] Staggers:
Well, it wasn't bothering me at all since I don't usually take GPS off, but out of curiosity I just tested it.

Using your kernel, I opened up Maps, GPS Status and another app called Catch that Bus and they all got a GPS signal fix. I then toggled GPS off then on again, went back to the apps and none of them could acquire a GPS signal (no icon in status bar), though Maps and the bus app seem to have picked up a signal based on network location.

I then flashed one of richard's 1.8 kernels. Same behaviour experienced: GPS signal working fine at first, then after toggling GPS off then back on, no GPS signal in any of the 3 apps above.

In testing with each of the kernels I was able to get GPS signal locked on after rebooting.

Long story short...the bug's not specific to your kernel.

I'm on the 1.4 GingerVillain, I can now connect to my vpn with OpenVPN Settings, but i can't use my vpn.

I can't use internet navigator, irc client, youtube app.. All apps can't access to the net through vpn.

When i turn off wifi, then turn on, and reconnect to my VPN, I can use irc client 2 second ( host is resolved ), then i'm disconnected, and can't reconnect to the irc server ( host no resolved ).

When i did the same procedure, I can use navigator like 2 second, just half-load 1 page. ( All got disconnected ).

The same for all apps.. :/ The VPN doesn't disconnect, i'm always connected, but i just can't use it.

I'll try 1.5 GingerVillain version, and say here if there is change or not !
