i have flash to v7 a couple of week b4 from v6. But i found that the interal memory just have 40 mb left. Can i just install the data2ext to solve the problem?
[Desire Android Development] radiohitec:
Hai Cool,

So far so good, the ROM works great, fast and stabil.

There is one problem I can't change the boot animation, can you help a little bit, another dir to place in, not enough memory to change (try it with the world animation)?
[Desire Android Development] blenaerts:
indeed .. for me although

just installed kernel-leedroid_2.2f.zip and rebooted.

worked fine

BUT ...

downloaded Cool_Z_v7 and NOT a single app is on the sd card.

can't even move the apps :(

have 32 mb swap and 512 mb ext4

what am i missing ?

[Desire Android Development] coolexe:
Hi,

Both Rom's updated to v8...
[Desire Android Development] fazalali110:
Great! Downloading now..hope data2sd works.

Thanks a lot for all your hard work! :)
[Desire Android Development] goki1:
thanks cool, do we need to wipe for over Z v7
[Desire Android Development] hispeedworm:
umm simple explaination would be that ... leedroid kernel doesnt support ext4 thats why its not working perhaps... also you dont need swap... it should be set to zero.....

i would say download this kernel... it supports ext4 and works very good.....

http://mirror.couttstech.com/android/index.php?dir=bravo/kernel/Sense/CFS/

couttstech-2.6.32.28_OC1190_CFS_VR_SLQB.zip

and also first repartition sd card via rom manager... swap zero

than in recovery first apply the partition alingment zip....

than rom..... than try for first boot.... if it boots than all is good....

if you get boot loop than install this kernel and than reboot ... it should work out all fine :)

hope this helps

Hai Cool,

Have done a full wipe.

ROM works great, UOT works, but can not change the boot animation, comes back with the HTC Quietly brilliant, I don't no why....

For the rest good , fast and stabil, testing it for battery results.

Do you have delete some applications from the ROM?

ROM is smaller than the V7....

Thanks fort the great work!!

Respect, respect!
[Desire Android Development] coolexe:
Hi,

No I did not delete anything...just improve optimization n update bin n xbin binary to latest one...so now we have much space on system partition...for customization...

For boot animation. Wait will make a new flashable.zip for that...

Hello!

I have updated my AMOLED Desire from v7 to v8 (without full wipe) and it works quite well, fast and stable.

But i have foung a little bug: When I send the phone to sleep using the power button, everything is fine, but when it goes to sleep by itself the LEDs of the 4 buttons stay on sometimes. I am investigating and if I can reproduce it, I will report back.

[Desire Android Development] hispeedworm:
coolexe how exactly does one wipe only dalvik cache if rom is downloaded and installed from rom manager?

because it only gives 2 options.

1. wipe data (i think it means factory reset)

2. backup current rom.

btw i didnt do any wipe.... not even dalvik cache and installed the rom via rom manager after download and it works like a charm ...

and first boot did take over 15 mins.... meaning new dalvik cache was created as well :D
[Desire Android Development] foobar66:
Installed this ROM today and applied some of my own customizations: removed some HTC bloatware, two ext4 partitions, applied my shutdown.d patch to safely umount ext4 file systems at shutdown (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=866981&page=7), replaced fonts by Ubuntu fonts (and removed Hebrew, Thai, Arabic fonts). Replaced CID and MNS default.xml files with my own. Added latest Gmail, Maps, Market and TitaniumBackup into /system/app. Increased Valdik heap. Removed all APNs which are not useful for me.

Also added init.d script to set scheduler to noop ... still feel this is slightly better than vr ... but I could be wrong (will test it for a couple of days).

Clock: 1113 Mhz via setCPU.

It's great. I really like the black/grey color of the Sense HD UI. Also some of the HTC widgets are nice (others are really crap IMHO).

Some little lags here and there ... but that is due to my over-optimized ext4 partitions and low commit rate. I need to experiment a little bit more to find a good commit value.

Quadrant (for what it is worth) around 2300.

Thanks coolexe !!! Fantastic work.

Hi I used coolexe version 6 and 7,7 began to lag a bit and my battery got eaten so changed to another rom,whats the difference in 8 anywY coolexe or someone could tell me thsnks
[Desire Android Development] hispeedworm:
Check change log on first post . It's pretty self explanatory .... he has posted all changes in v8 compared to v 7
[Desire Android Development] foobar66:
coolexe ... small suggestion. When you update OP, could you please add the date of the releases? Maybe it can be found somewhere ... but I did not see it. thanks.

Also a question: Why did you decide to change the kernel?
[Desire Android Development] coolexe:
ok will check it...

bcoz of i added dalvik.cache clear script in Rom, just 4 safe side for Rom manager users.
[Desire Android Development] coolexe:
WOW lots of customizations...Cool bro.:D

v7 is a first releasing with New Base... thats why...

thread title have Rom updated date... this time i use new kernel bcoz of early kernel (Coutts one) has some boot loop issue for s-on users.
[Desire Android Development] foobar66:
LOL ... yes, now I see the date in the thread title ... I should really get new glasses :eek:

Regarding kernel, I'm S-OFF ... so no boot loop for me.

[Desire Android Development] l3zawi:
can we use this ROM with ext3 partition ???
[Desire Android Development] coolexe:
yes, but ext4 recommend for performance...;)
[Desire Android Development] foobar66:
Yes, should work ... but why? Use ext2 if you do not need a journal. If you want a journal, ext4 will be faster than ext3.

How do I get rid of the Notification Power Buttons completely?

I edited notification_config.txt but this doesn't solve the problem because even if I don't see the icons there's still an empty space (see attached image).

I had this problem with v7 (I'm on v8 now) but solved it by using UOT, now they changed/updated UOT and that option to disable power buttons has disappeared :confused:

I tried using the older framework-res I had from v7 but that doesn't work (bootloop), it seems framework has changed.

Flashed Z v8 over v7 with wiping dalvik cache in evening. Market downloads and updates don't work for me. Also I couldn't download any theme or whatever from HTC Sense account.

Did full wipe, flashed Z v8 again this morning, same problems. Applications were restored by Titanium.

What can it be - no free space for download, google-related problems (however htcsense is independent from google) or something else?

I use data2ext and partitioned my sdcard according to 2nd post.
[Desire Android Development] foobar66:
coolexe ... I saw your PM but for some reason private messaging does not work on the forum. I will just post it here.

What you need is:

1) move /system/bin/shutdown to /system/bin/shutdown.orig

2) make a script /system/bin/shutdown with the following contents:

#!/system/bin/sh

/system/bin/logwrapper echo "+++ Running shutdown scripts"

/system/bin/logwrapper /system/xbin/busybox run-parts /system/etc/shutdown.d/

/system/bin/logwrapper echo "+++ Running shutdown scripts finished"

/system/bin/shutdown.orig

3) set permission to 750 and owner to 0.2000 for /system/bin/shutdown

4) create a directory /system/etc/shutdown.d/ (owner 0.0)

5) in /system/etc/shutdown.d/ put script "10syncfs" with following content:

#!/system/bin/sh

/system/bin/logwrapper echo "+++ Syncing file systems"

sync

sync

sync

6) in /system/etc/shutdown.d/ put script "20lazyunmount" with following content:

#!/system/bin/sh

for i in 2 3 4 5

do

if [ -e /dev/block/mmcblk0p$i ];

then

# check if it is mounted

mount | grep mmcblk0p$i > /dev/null

RESULT=$?

if [ $RESULT -eq 0 ];

then

/system/bin/logwrapper echo "+++ Lazy unmount of /dev/block/mmcblk0p$i"

/system/bin/logwrapper busybox umount -l /dev/block/mmcblk0p$i

else

/system/bin/logwrapper echo "+++ No need to umount /dev/block/mmcblk0p$i (partition not mounted)"

fi

else

/system/bin/logwrapper echo "+++ No need to umount /dev/block/mmcblk0p$i (partition does not exist)"

fi

done

Then check your logcat on shutdown.

Do not restore system data with titanium backup, this usually causes trouble...

By the way: did you check the md5 hashes of all the downloaded files?

disappointed with ROM Manager - tried to backup Z ROM v7, installed other ROM via Manager, then tried to restore Z ROM and got "UIDS on system are inconsistent"

maybe it's because of using data2ext?

It's bcoz of by default all temp download moved to cache partition to /sdcard/download folder...

So if u don't have "download" folder in ur sdcard than u can't download anything from market...

Make a "download" folder in sdcard or just download anything from web browser, "download" folder automatically created on sdcard...

once you edit file with root explorer you need to set permissions again, you need to set: User read and write, group read, others read.

in details of file it must be rw-r--r--

toggleWifi|toggleBluetooth|toggleGPS|toggleMobileData|toggleSync|toggleAutoRotate

If you remove some, you can have less than 6 aswell.

toggleWimax

toggleAirplane

toggleAutoRotate

toggleFlashlight

toggleGPS
