Okaaay. I just COMPLETELY wiped everything, but before I backed up the APK from Launcher Pro.

So, I wiped, reflashed Build 19, but this time without Gapps. Just to test something out. So it booted up into Gingerbread, and first thing I did was to install Launcher Pro with IO File Manager.

I set Launcher Pro as my default launcher, and guess what: It still lags.

I didnt do anything else. Gingerbread, no Gapps, just Launcher Pro as an additional App. No restored backups what so ever, no setup Google Account. Bare as a bone, so to say.

The lagging isnt THAT bad, but it definately feels like Eclair 2.0.1 with 550Mhz on a Motorola Milestone back in the days. If you press the App Drawer Icon, the icons arent flying in super smooth like it used to. With more than 1 Widget on my 3 Home Screens the screen swipe doesnt work as smooth.

I even tried to delete all the Live Wallpapers and the Microbes LIB file. Still the same.

I tested this when I went back to Android Revolution 1.9.3 ... There, everything is super smooth with Launcher Pro Plus.

So, actually it couldnt be my setup, since everything was as stock as it could be, except for launcher pro plus and no google apps. whats going on here??

EDIT: Just a thought. I came from Android Revolution 1.9.3 with Apache14's 1,51 Ghz Kernel 1.1.4 ... I didnt wipe the boot partition before, and I cant do it with Clockwork 3.0.0.2 ... But that shouldnt be a problem right? Or does this Gingerbread Release come without modifiying the Boot Partition itself (Kernel) ??
[Desire HD Android Development] :
That is very weird, it should definitely not follow after a complete wipe... Maybe you have a rouge widget that is messing with your swiping;) play around and report your findings mate;)

Very weird!

Try installing LP with the market, maybe yours is a laggy build. ;-)

Did you try to set up SetCPU? Maybe your CPU is not correctly clocked?
[Desire HD Android Development] Try4Ce:
Well, to some others the homescreens may seem smooth, but to me it does not. there is an obvious difference between the smoothness of android revolution 1.9.3 (froyo 2.2) and CM7 #19 ....

Just did everything again. Just installed Launcher Pro, no Gapps again, and even when im not restoring anything launcher pro related, like my pro plus setup, it lags.

So there cant be any "rouge" widget or app ...

Its just the homescreen after all. Everything else seems super smooth. But the lagging on the homescreen just isnt very pleasing to the eye...
[Desire HD Android Development] BumAround:
Logically speaking, the culprit seems to be your Launcher Pro (Plus), somehow it doesn't seem to "get along well" with this ROM...
[Desire HD Android Development] Try4Ce:
Well dude, its not only launcher pro plus, its adw launcher ex as well...

Many people have different ideas of "smooth"... every eye sees it differently. I am pretty sensitive about smoothness, sometimes it drove my friends nuts.

Me for myself I can see a clear difference between AR 1.9.3 and CM7 #19 with Gapps, but maybe others wont notice the difference. Not because it acts different on their phones, but maybe just dont see the difference itself.

Its hard to explain.

The weird thing in total is, with the first couple of Gingerbread releases, I didnt notice ANY lags on my device, not even with Launcher Pro Plus. Just happened with the last few releases (I guess #13 or #12?).

Benchmarks are totally fine, they give me great results, and games do run slightly better. But I'm more often in the system or homescreens than in any 3D apps, so this lagging is kind of annoying.

I tried all possible things already. Flashed #19, then flashed Gapps, went back into recovery to fix permissions, fixed permissions from within the ROM Manager App, and and and ...

It drives me nuts :)
[Desire HD Android Development] BumAround:
Well, I was stating my opinion based on the scenario you shared with us.

But again, if the "lagging" and "smooth-ness" are two subjective parameters, I'm afraid it's hard to help you out. Sorry & good luck.
[Desire HD Android Development] MrGarak:
Strange, ADWLauncher EX is perfect for me, no lag. I have most of the fancy stuff turned on too, transition effects, transparent app drawer, app drawer animation etc.
[Desire HD Android Development] :

LPP Is smooth as silk for me too,

But i am OC'ing to 1.51ghz;P

How about video playback like divx that's still not working?

Im using rockplayer and its working fine. but only with software decoding
[Desire HD Android Development] Try4Ce:
Hmm ADW Launcher EX was pretty smooth so far, but as soon as I changed the Wallpaper (away from the nexus lwp) it became laggy again. What the hell is going on.... ?

Man, I feel paranoid.... everyone else doesnt seem to have this problem...
[Desire HD Android Development] tready:
I'd stop fretting over it as 20 will be out tonight
[Desire HD Android Development] lefty83:
Ok I think I figured out why my homescreen lagged. In adw settings disabling wallpaper scrolling seemed to have cause the lag. So anyone experiencing lag can u disable wallpaper scrolling and see if lag has been fixed?

Sent from my Gingerlicious DHD
[Desire HD Android Development] Try4Ce:
Yeah, definately feels smoother without wallpaper scrolling. weird o.O but still not as smooth as in AR
[Desire HD Android Development] :
Wallpaper scrolling is fine on mine, and i have no lag whatsoever with lots of widgets and LPP widgets on my 7 homescreens ;)

at 1.51ghz and screen off at 0.3ghz my phone is conserving when im not using and a speed hound when swiping and playing games;)

Completely impressed by Team Douche's early builds as the Froyo early builds were practically unusable, (back in my Nexus One days). The early versions of CM6 were very very buggy, this is like a RC3 in comparision.

This means one of two things, either Team Douche have got better at making early working ROM's or that GB is not as big an update to Froyo as Froyo was to Eclair and is just a matter of merging the code;)

[Desire HD Android Development] saquib:
Out of interest, what settings are you using for SETCPU, in particular the scaling setting? Are you using profiles as well? Thanks.
[Desire HD Android Development] MrGarak:
Scrolling wallpaper is okay here too so it must be an issue with some devices.

Here's a quick test video of the responsiveness I'm getting: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hfPvoODWYAM
[Desire HD Android Development] :
Im using:

Main screen 1.51ghz - 0.2ghz ondemand

Temp > 43.1 = 0.7ghz - 0.2ghz pri 100 ondemand

charging 1ghz - 0.2ghz pri 95 ondemand

screen off 0.3ghz - 0.2ghz pri 90 ondemand

Hope this helps;)

JD
[Desire HD Android Development] :
The lag could be caused by what cpu governor they are using, to be confident of no lag use ondemand, do not use interactive... i also experienced lag with interactive, my homescreens got stuck.

I did that and nothing happens. i think i made a little mess now installing all the drivers so i think ill have to clean it up a bit.
[Desire HD Android Development] nickwarn:
Yes thats true, but if we do that and want them to work with this rom we have to uninstall htc driver and loose fastboot flashing, am i right?
[Desire HD Android Development] dr.m0x:
Yes or you could set up your computer to dual boot with a Linux distro and do all your hacking from Linux. Gingerbread works flawlessly with the 2.6.35 kernel.
[Desire HD Android Development] gaabrysz:
Any specific distro m8 ?? any suggestion is welcome :) btw let it be something easy :)
[Desire HD Android Development] MrGarak:
I only used Ubuntu before and wasn't crazy about it, I think I'll give Linux Mint a try.
[Desire HD Android Development] dr.m0x:
Linux Mint 10 is the way to go. Its based on Ubuntu but is much easier. Has all the codecs set up out of the box for starters.
[Desire HD Android Development] lefty83:

The responsiveness in that youtube video is way better than on my device. That is actually really weird. Is there a difference in our devices? Like the hardware? The Video shows how it should be... but its not like that on my end. On Sense UI its the same responsiveness like shown on that video.

USB mass storage still not working on build #20.

Or is it working for some of you guys?
[Desire HD Android Development] MrGarak:
How exactly did you do that? I reinstalled HTC Sync and now have MyHTC in there. When I connect the phone 'Android Phone' and 'MTP' show up with errors under the 'Other Devices' header.
[Desire HD Android Development] Try4Ce:
Okay guys, just checked my system a little. Battery usage tells me that Android System etwas lotsa more Battery than the display, which is pretty weird.

Plus OS Monitor tells me something about a constant

EnterICM: enter ICM MODE done!!!

Then

EnterICM: leave ICM MODE done!!!

And thats going on like all the time. Can anybody check if you got the same messages in "OS Monitor" ?

Plus I found out that the system runs at almost exactly the same speed when a Live Wallpaper is active, so I guess it means that the module for the live wallpaper is kind of constantly running here? I checked out the Microbes and Nexus LWP's and when they run, my system runs the same, like a little laggy... Happens while I use standard static Wallpapers as well...

Damn, starting to go crazy here, but maybe one of the devs can actually do something with what I provide here...
[Desire HD Android Development] lefty83:
go the the one that says myhtc and go to "update driver", then select "browser my computer for files" and then "let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer". then there were two options which selected "USB mass storage".

for the android phone i used "adb compatible drivers" and for mtp i used "adb bootloader"
[Desire HD Android Development] gaabrysz:
Yes USB works now :) Thank you lefty83 :)
[Desire HD Android Development] lefty83:
what i noticed myself is that all cyanogenmod's always had a higher battery usage "in battery history" with android system or cell standby then sense roms.

With sense rom's I have 60% display usage and little drain on other things like cell standby and barely any with android system.

On cyanogenmod rom's I have 60% android system and like 10% display,

so either sense or cyanogenmod read battery usages wrong..i assume its sense cause when I barely use my phone at work for example, play lot of music with the screen off etc.. i still have 60 - 70% display usage...

currently i can say that gingerbread drains battery the same as leedroid or android revolution so eventho android system shows a high usage, in my case, my battery actually doesnt seem to be affected by it.

For getting paid market apps use something like market enabler, it is reported that solves the issue

[Desire HD Android Development] Pure Energy:
Just for info. B19 with preinstalled gapps worked less buggy and more smoothly. Right after flashing b20 and gapps I experienced lags. Later everything went ok. But market tried and actually succeeded in restoring the ancient apps I don't use now. It didn't even show me most of them to be in process of downloading. I write about that because didn't experience it since CM6.1. Is it CM specialty feature?
[Desire HD Android Development] lefty83:
Restoring apps from the market is a Google feature, linked to your Google account. Nothing to do with cyanogenmod.

[Desire HD Android Development] Pure Energy:
Sorry, didn't see what exactly is with your problem, but perhaps the following might help.

After uninstalling HTC drivers if my Win7 doesn't see the DHD drive - I go and change in device manager in Android Phone category the currently installed driver. Usually from composite ADB interface to ADB interface and backward (depending on what is installed). Typically it results in appearance of the DHD drive and I have only to mount it in DHD.
[Desire HD Android Development] sykopompos:
Sorry I was quiet, I was cleaning out all pre build 18 stuff so it isn't messy, editing my build script (seems I wasn't uploading the squished version anymore and that is why the builds were larger so now I fixed that) and I was adding md5sum to be uploaded too, you will find them starting with build 21 in the md5sum folder (I don't know if this will actually match up to the builds as the source makes it's own md5sum and I am just renaming it to match the build name) so do please let me know if it does

Update wipe

Hi,

Thanks for your sweeeet ROMs you pushing out! Really nice... :D

Quick question: what do you recommend to wipe between the different bilds?

And another one: another ROM maker made a quick "upgrade wipe" and "full wipe" to be used under CWM2 but cannot be used with CWM3. Would it be possible for you to make such scripts for CWM3?

Cheers and keep up the good work!
[Desire HD Android Development] Try4Ce:
#22 is up. Wonder what has been fixed in this one. But I will flash it asap.
[Desire HD Android Development] alturismo:
thanks alot ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] MrGarak:
Theres an updater script included so you are able to flash over the previous build, would probably do a full wipe when the RC1 build comes though. ;)

No problem, I fixed the driver names had them a bit mixed up, lefty83 helped me out with the same thing.

By the way, if the ADB entries don't show up for selection you have to use the 'have disk..' option and browse to the android usb folder where the SDK is installed and select the .inf file.

[Desire HD Android Development] Pure Energy:
Welcome. The same thing works when you're in Recovery. Sometimes Win7 has troubles with finding phone if you can't get past HTC boot screen (errors in flashing, etc.). Try rebooting Win.

Yes, build 22 is turbo!
[Desire HD Android Development] nickwarn:
Totaly agree, it was my first feeling, WoW this is fast
[Desire HD Android Development] Try4Ce:
Oh-My-God? Really? So no need anymore to flash back to old Recovery to revert to AR or any other 2.2 build? That sounds totally fantastic!

Backup and Restore for EXT2,3 and 4 ... Holy moly. Great work :D

By the way: #22 really feels smoother, but nonetheless my device is still lagging. It actually is pretty weird since I doubt my device is faulty since everything else like the 3D Gallery, 3D Games and Benchmarks run totally flawlessly. And Sense-Based ROMs @ Froyo run totally buttery smooth as well.

Maybe its just a little hardware related, and gets sorted out soon. I envy the people here who can experience Gingerbread smoothly, but even Phunkycow confirmed the lag issues... Lets see and hope and wait. I'll stick with Gingerbread for some more time anyways, since other than the homescreen lagging, its hella fast.

EDIT: Oh, and just for the record. I tried flashing a very early build of gingerbread, and even if it was pretty buggy compared to the current build, it ran really smooth. So I guess its really software related. Maybe some devices have issues with newer libraries or something. I wish I could help to sort this out, but I have absolutely NO experience in Android Development...

Ok so got the latest recovery flash via fast boot .

Got build 22

Latest gapps

All flashed correctly however

My apn didn't show up do this builds have extensive apn lists?

The reason i ask is that i would had though that at least if my apn got included that when i get into the process of booting to my device for the first time and then signing into google it would had restore all my apps. But because my apn was not set, it didn't..and for some weird reason i couldnt even get wifi to work.

S had to add my apn manually and then yes it all connected nicely.

But how can i force google to restore my apps?

So then restarted my device and wifi worked.

So then i though ok...not a big problem..

Tested camera that worked.

Tested video camera fc..tried it twice.. And to me that was a deal breaker :(

So went back to cm6.1,3. Fr that i had to reflash 2.5.13 cwr via rom manager.

The phone then just went blank....so had to remove the battery and put it back again and then i was able to get into recovery (correct recovery version 2.5.13)

So..

When are we likely to haver an extensive apn list?

And video camera fc on b#22
