Really enjoying Redux. Sure it doesn't have some things GV has, then again, GV didn't have some of the things I liked with Sense.

One thing I would like is the option to do away with the lockscreen. Does anyone use an app that does this on Redux?
[Desire Android Development] Mystenes:
Hello all,

Here is my experiment in first public release :)

This ROM fits in smallest HBOOT - Oxygen, for those who want to, it is possible to cut system partition even more.

Below is a link to barebone version of unthemed Redux 1.2, with:

- newest available public google apps (much faster recovering from new instalation, does not require updates after first market run), market updates info about installed apps, so there is no need of updating apps.

- fixed gingerbread keyboard, so it finally gives us possibility of using prediction in some languages

- useless stuff that is downloadable from market is removed: gmail. maps, voicesearch, youtube, street...

- not downloadable apps removed: livewallpapers, genie widget, quicksearchbox, deskclock, kickback, soundback...

- ringtones and notifications has been removed, i have left only one from each (most of users uses their own, so keepeing that in rom takes precious space)

- default launcher is ZEAM Launcher, very light and much faster than standard

I need to know, if anyone is interested in my work.

For those, who like barebone version, and still wants to cut something more, there is an additional option in removing app2sd script - everything runs much faster from internal memory.

Here is a link
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Ha thats funny. I actually talked to ihlades about doing something similar as a project last week.

I already cut system down to fit easily in a 75MB partition. I was working on symlinking /cache to ext but when he directed me towards 06mountdl in init.d, it actually uses /data for market downloads if /cache is too small.

I use custom MTD with 75MB /system, 3MB /cache and leaving 360MB to /data. I run everything from NAND and it runs great.

I was concerned small cache would have effect on game playing, but it does not.

3MB is the minimum size I could get to work with custom MTD layout. Anything less shows data back at 148MB. I am a big fan of customk MTD over alpharev though because they all create too much wasted space. Especially if you cut system down anyway or dont need a ridiculously alrge cache partition.

It runs fast and smooth and I like the no2ext approach.
[Desire Android Development] Mystenes:
Redux should be also available in lite version. Totally stripped down version, that everyone could build up as they want/need.

I very like Ihlades work, but working on theming Redux and collecting statistics to check how many people are activating Redux daily is.. pointless.

I have released that ROM just because Ihlades didnt updated gapps to newest versions, and word prediction also doesnt work properly.

I will modify it even more (my theme, totally new one, not a clone of honeycomb), but i dont want to create a higly specialized ROM, that nobody will ever use.
[Desire Android Development] berre:
would love to find out which redux/kernel version you have... themed/unthemed version?

thx

B
[Desire Android Development] KaleBatzZ:
Wow! Downloading right now :)
[Desire Android Development] ayk33:
every setup is default except data2ext and themed one.i did everything from the beginning; partition my sdcard with gparted. honestly i only use my phone for callings,sms and internet;no games,no navigations,etc...

so it's great for me...i fully charged and reset battery stats saturday morning at about 7 am and i charged it last night at about 10pm with 10% battery level :D so great...

thanks redux :D:D:D
[Desire Android Development] ayk33:
looks great...will try it as soon as possible...thanks for sharing
[Desire Android Development] santhrax:
Thanks, flashin right now!
[Desire Android Development] cwkhong:
white theme

is there a white theme (like MIUI rom) that i apply to this rom?
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
You could create one in the kitchen:

http://uot.dakra.lt/
[Desire Android Development] cwkhong:
ok i try what i can do over there. i m quite noob to this stuff. anyway what i m looking for is that MIUI / iOS interface, white background / black lettering. i like this rom but i prefer THAT interface.
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
It is only a theme where as MIUI has a whole launcher to play with. All you can do is tweak what your current interface looks like (colours and icons etc) but not really change the overall layout.
[Desire Android Development] KaleBatzZ:
Can somebody explain me how i remove the apps2sd script? Thnx!
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
before flashing the rom, using either astro on your phone or winrar on a pc, open the rom zip file (NOT extract) and navigate the folders /system/etc/init.d and delete 10apps2sd or whatever the script is called. Then close the application and the zip is updated.

easy peasy :)
[Desire Android Development] Bingley:
@ihlades Is there a bugtracker (like Oxygen has on google's code site?) or a feature tracker?

I'd love to be able to use the volume rocker to long-hold/press up&down to control the media player next/previous track - possible? :)
[Desire Android Development] HTC 123:
Before I flash this Rom I was just wondering the difference between themed and non themed ? Have searched the official website but haven't found any info

Thanks !!!
[Desire Android Development] ihlades:
It's in the ROM already, it works with the screen off only.
[Desire Android Development] blowy666:
Is there a chance that parts of the "official leaked" Gingerbread-version will be build in at REDUX?

I have noticed that for example AAC streams will work with this version, but will not work with REDUX (and all other "older" GB ROMS)...
[Desire Android Development] kartoffel1212:
Hi Guys,

i have updatet from 1.1 to 1.2 and now i cant connect to the mobile Internet.

There any solutions ?
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Did you check your apn
[Desire Android Development] iltisanni:
Same here... I had mobile Internet for a few days with Redux 1.2.. but today it just dropped and never came back again???

I think APN is correct. Im using O2-Germany...
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
I remember once on defrost, all my apns just decided to wipe themselves.

Definitely check them against the o2 site
[Desire Android Development] iltisanni:
Just checked apn...No differences to those on o2 site....
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
That is odd then :(
[Desire Android Development] jayshah:
Just checking the obvious:

- Rebooted (soft)

- Battery out + in (after shutdown, hard)

- Toggled Settings > Wireless > Mobile > check if it's enabled ("Data enabled"), toggle 2G on and off (wait inbetween toggling), try toggling Roaming too.

Do they make any difference?
[Desire Android Development] Pzykonaut:
Had the same problem today, also on O2 Germany. Could be a carrier problem though.
[Desire Android Development] iltisanni:
Yeah! Pulling battery does fix it.

[Desire Android Development] redlabour:
Same for me - every second Day specially after using WLAN for over 1 Hour (Facebook Chat) WLAN and mobile Data hangs up till reboot. Even every incoming call has still the 2 seconds delay and often call hangs up after 20 seconds.

EPlus Germany and Redux 1.2 latest Radio.
[Desire Android Development] KaleBatzZ:
Thnx m8!

Btw is it possible to make the word prediction work on Redux v1.2?
[Desire Android Development] suiller:
here running 1.2 with latest radio (GB rom leak) + default RIL & all works perfectly, also switching from 3g to wifi & vice-versa

just for info my operator is 3gh & I don't use at all 2g connection
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Updated to Beta4.

Does anyone care or am I doing this just for me?

Not that I mind, but if no-one wants it, I'll stop updating the post :)
[Desire Android Development] friedit:
Just installed 1.2 and I'm having a few issues. The orange bump in list views looks very bad and low quality (like a bad JPEG compression or too few colors) . Also the automatic brightness is much too dark.
[Desire Android Development] MightyBen:
Would say that this was carrier related. A friend of mine had the same problem with stock Desire.

But I have the same problem that APN won't connect after some hours on WLAN.

Only changing from 3g to 2g to 3g solves that for me. Maybe it's the newest radio?

BTW: I could never update to the leaked RIL on this ROM. I always get "no signal" after wake up from standby.
[Desire Android Development] Chugfrenzy:
I for one definitely care mate!

Loving the theme loads and a confirmed flash-aholic so the more updates the better lol.

Seriously, excellent work and much appreciated - tops off an otherwise flawless Rom perfectly :-)
[Desire Android Development] bunnybash:
I care!
[Desire Android Development] Vuska:
hey...no... don't stop. I just download it :)
[Desire Android Development] hyakuman:
Yeah, definitely keep the updates coming! The skin looks great and it would be a shame to see it go away!
[Desire Android Development] Vuska:
Already install this theme....but my status bar dissappear. Why ?

My Redux is version 1.2 themed.

thanks
[Desire Android Development] green hoodlum:
text messaging emoticons not working

hi i've got redux v1.1.2 themed.

when i hit the emoticon button it indicates that i pressed it but it doesn't open

the emoticon menu. i have to reboot the phone to fix it. this is the 2nd time

it has happened.

anybody know whats going on? :confused:

thanks!
[Desire Android Development] haakuturi:
First of all; I'd like to say I LOVE the battery life on this ROM! When I installed it yesterday the battery was not at 100% and yet 19 hours later it's still down to only 38%. I don't think my phone has ever actually *reached* 19 hours of use before!!

I have one query though. When I scroll up or down the page and come to the end; I get a weird 'ghost' effect. Here's a link to a video (hopefully) showing the weirdness. YouTube

Does anybody else encounter this and is there a known fix or is it just something I'm going to have to get used to?
[Desire Android Development] green hoodlum:
if you mean the glow effect (am at work can't check youtube) as far as i know (please correct me if i'm wrong)

its a feature of redux to allow smoother scrolling.

which version of redux do you have? if its unthemed there is a zip to get rid of it. just search for 'no glow' and find the zip with your version of redux :)

i'd personally like to remove it but i don't know how to remove it unfortunately.
[Desire Android Development] gautam.malik:
This glow is a Gingerbread addition.

CM7 rom provides an option to remove disable it.

I think there are few apps in market to remove this glow.
[Desire Android Development] kartoffel1212:
@ihlades

Hi ihlades,

i have buy a i9000 and sell my Desire (with Redux 1.1) to a friend. I will thank you very mutch for your ROM. Its definitely one of the best Costum ROMs for the Desire !

I wish you a nice time :)
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Thanks everyone. Will keep updates coming

It's based on framework from unthemed version, so it is not compatible with themed version as the framework is different.
[Desire Android Development] perangbintang:
Yes the glow effects on redux is definitely ugly. See it on light colored background (like in market for example), the glow will make a ugly color banding effects that quite annoying.

I wonder why, cause in oxygen the glow is perfect (no annoying color banding thing) so no need to remove it there.
[Desire Android Development] blowy666:
Whats the big problem?

With UOT kitchen you can also change the color of this glowing...!
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
It's not the colour. It's the banding. I can confirm it even on the honeybread port I'm working on it happens with the blue glow
[Desire Android Development] itshotinhere:
I believe it is intentional - for performance reasons.
[Desire Android Development] bunnybash:
I am using the un themed version and still coming up with boot loops when I install the zip for your theme, no idea why, but it annoys me cause I kinda love your theme!
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Unthemed 1.2?

Thats odd, I flash each beta several times myself before uploading.

Do you definitely have enough space in /system for the theme? Its a bit bigger than the standard framework, so if you're borderline for space, this could cause the issue.

Do you know how to get a logcat?
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Yes it could well be. Hadn't thought of that.

Doesn't really bother me personally, but definitely notice the difference on those poor apps that only allow a white background.
[Desire Android Development] nickislauw:
Hey RootSU,

I see your very active in this thread so i want to ask you:

can I remove the a2sd+ script?? Me phone doesnt like it, i think my EXT3 is corrupted or something but i just want the "oldskool" a2sd back :)

Im verry pr0 in roms etc:P so i can handle it;P

Thanks!
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Yes you can do it.

Best thing to do is take a full titanium backup first, because if any apps are symlinked to sd-ext and we remove the script, we could break things.

If you have s-off, you can simply navigate to /system/etc/init.d and delete 10apps2sd (i think its called) with root explorer, boot into recovery and do a data wipe. Reboot the phone and install titanium and do a full titanium restore.

If you are S-on, you can boot into recovery, connect to PC and use ADB to:

adb shell
mount /system
exit
adb pull /system/etc/init.d/10apps2sd c:

But the easiest way is to open (not extract) the rom either form your phone using Astro or from a PC using winrar, navigate to the same location and delete the file. Reflash the rom.

Either way, I recommend doing a full titanium backup and wipe before removing the script.
[Desire Android Development] nickislauw:
Thanks man! I just made a new EXT3 in RA recovery.. so lets see if it will act weird again. If so, i will remove the script;);)
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
No worries. I removed my script so all is running from NAND. Runs well.
[Desire Android Development] nickislauw:
Does it run faster/smoother when opening apps?? Or what do you recommend ?

Cheers,
[Desire Android Development] blowy666:

I have noticed that for example AAC streams will work with this version, but will not work with REDUX (and all other "older" GB ROMS)...
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
It seems to but it could just be placebo effect.
[Desire Android Development] nickislauw:
Seems like i dont have problems now :O after creating new EXT3 in Amon Ra..

First i made EXT3 in clockwork.. seems to be corrupted but now it works fine i think !
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Good news :)
[Desire Android Development] anton_kg:
ihlades,

you've asked to send you translations recently. Why don't you start a proper translation's project online, like https://translations.launchpad.net/ ?

The reason why I'm asking is that it's very hard to translate.

First, it's a hard job, you need to sit down and do it from scratch. Second, there are many alternative translations. Obviously, you won't be able to choose which translation is the best. The online translation would help to fix both problems. Also, don't forget to post MD5 checksums as already been requested ;-)

ps. Flashing 1.2 meanwhile ;-) Thanks alot!
[Desire Android Development] cpt.bert:
Same width call delay, thats fixed in the leaked version! Bluetooth also doesnt work with me.
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Have either of you tested to see if installing the drivers and RIL from the leaked HTC 2.3 rom fixes your issues?

Link in my signature.
[Desire Android Development] nickislauw:
Nope, i just leave it from how it is :)

not gonna flash any RIL or something. I mean, everything is working absolutely fantastic so:rolleyes:

Cheers,
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Sorry I meant blowy666 and cpt.burt :)
[Desire Android Development] nickislauw:
ghehe ok :P
[Desire Android Development] Chronic404:
A couple of things

Is there a way to disable the Vibration on "connect" when calling out?

I hate the phone vibrating on my ear whenever i call someone, and when the connection drops in and out, but i can't find the settings to turn it off :confused:

Also, i have installed the "Call Delay" app from the market, but it hasn't worked, i'm still getting a 2 second delay

HTC Desire, Redux 1.1.2, S-On
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
The app is totally hit and miss.
[Desire Android Development] jayshah:
Based on what ihlades said many pages ago now, they (super-smooth scrolling and unbanded glow) are mutually exclusive events until we get a release of something (might have been GPU drivers, but I can't remember). You can raid the thread if you're really interested.

Personally I take the smooth scrolling as a preference. If it's really annoying, I'm sure we can just remove the glow entirely from the framework.
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
I've got my own framework anyway. I like the glow and dont really care about the banding.

I do have the latest drivers too though
[Desire Android Development] blowy666:
Thanks...I´ve flashed these drivers now.

But now for example my YOURMUZE.FM-App is shutting down directly after start.

I had the Leedroid installed a few days ago (where the base is the leaked Gingerbread), and with this ROM the YOURMUZE-App works fine.

(I wonder if the AAC support there is because of Sense, or if it is supported by the OFFICIAL Gingerbread, and it is only a missing part of the "old" Gingerbread-versions...)

But I wanna stay with REDUX... ;)

EDIT: Now I dont have a signal any more...so I cant phone or sending texts.

Thanks god I have a actual Nandroid... ;)
[Desire Android Development] cpt.bert:
No i havent, maybe wil do that, should that solve the problem?
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Yep. was worth a try though. simply reflashing the rom without a data wipe will replace the ril and drivers with that built into the rom.
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Not sure. maybe. Its worth a try. I use them and notice better battery life whilst using the 32.54 radio, but for some people it affects signal (like blowy).
[Desire Android Development] nickislauw:
So i deleted the file from init.d to remove a2sd cause device started to acting weird -__-"

Will flash in a minute :)

Im going to think that ext3 on a 16gb transcend card is'nt really compatible with a2sd+ or android :(, what do you think ??
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Did you do a factory reset? if all your apps are installed on EXT, it will act weird.

Just delete it in a rom.zip, then after titanium backup and factory reset, flash the modified rom.

Should make no difference
[Desire Android Development] nickislauw:
i always make factory reset etc.. i love full wipes lol..

but it moves all the apps to ext automatically, when i go to sd-ext (in root explorer) i see all my apps..

But i just going to do a full wipe now (i already deleted my ext partition) and flash the rom with the removed script..

I will post how it goes!

Cheers,

//
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
It only moves stuff if there's stuff to move and script to move it. Wipe via recovery and removal of script should see ext empty.
[Desire Android Development] nickislauw:
oke:)

But i already deleted my ext partition since i dont need it anymore..

Cheers,

[Desire Android Development] nickislauw:
MAN I GOT A SERIOUS BUG!!!

With EVERY GB AOSP rom i got this bug:

When i want to turn the screen on, 5/10 times only the lights light up but not my screen :mad: then i have to take the battery out...

Im using 5.14 radio and CM7 hboot..

And i always full wipe so please help me!

Cheers,

[Desire Android Development] suiller:
perhaps you lowered too much cpu freq, 128 doesn't work always

Black screen of death. Try an alternative kernel. The eviollet ones are good.

If you're on havs now, try svs or vice versa
[Desire Android Development] nickislauw:
:O:O is that dangerous ???

Because i had it too on CM7... :(

Cheers,

[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Not really. Just annoying. I had on some defrost kernels. Not sure on the cause tbh
[Desire Android Development] ph03:
Hi!

I noticed today that I havn't received any text SMS anymore since the 1.2 release, it worked before though. Sending SMS on the other hand works fine. Could this be related to the release or is there anybode else with a simmilar problem? Everything else in the rom is working great, I don't want to downgrade if there is a quick fix for this.

I'm on the O2 Germany network with radio 32.54.00.32H_5.15.05.17.

Any suggestions?

Greets Janick
[Desire Android Development] nickislauw:
Ok, so what kernel do you preffer for me ??

Cheers,

//
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
I use gb havs axi from eviollet but he has svs too

Lol im kinda noob in the kernel corner :$

Can you advise me just a good one :) Stable, good blife etc..

bluetooth carkit

Im loving the redux rom, but now i seem to have some serious trouble with the use of my carkit.

There seems to be a delay in sound when talking to people. It takes around 1 second before we hear each other, very difficult having a conversation like that :)

And people complain that they almost cant hear me, even if i shout my lungs out.

Couldnt find anything in the thread, more people experiencing this?

...

In the meantime i tried a non Gingerbread Rom Leedroid, and the volume of the phone seems to be allright. So the bluetooth volume seems to be a rom or GB issue.

The lag when talking via the carkit remains, now to find out if its phone or carkit related :)
[Desire Android Development] CheesySeb:
I had to restore my APN from my previous ROM using titanium backup!
[Desire Android Development] madman_cro:
wow . smoother than oxygen gj
[Desire Android Development] mrBira:
Great rom!

Everything's working. Network, wifi also.

Could even restore all apps + data and SMS/mms/call history from leedroid 2.3 with titanium backup.

One strange thing I've never seen before: when i install ninjas live and racing live i start from zero. Like my accounts are gone... nothing saved.

I restored my nandroid backup and all fine.

Can't go back to this lovely rom until i know how to fix this :(
[Desire Android Development] HyunJoon:
hey nice rom! but can you please extract the notification power widget to a flashable zip ? THAT would be awesome !
[Desire Android Development] iseeka:
please ...
[Desire Android Development] ihlades:
This ROM uses a heavily modified framework, so the notification power widget wouldn't work on other ROMs.
[Desire Android Development] CheesySeb:
Same sort of thing as MIUI I guess...
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
This looks very promising, good work! I'll test it for a couple of days and I'll post back my impressions. :)

For now (three hours) it feels smooth and responsive, very impressed. Hoping that, since it's based on Oxygen, it won't slow down as uptime goes on, as the "main" ROM did to me.
[Desire Android Development] ihlades:
Not even close. MIUI basically has a completely new framework, where as this ROM has just a few extra resources and classes. It's more like CM.
[Desire Android Development] CheesySeb:
Oh fair play. Well may I say thanks for this truly awesome ROM. Will you be implementing long-press back app killing in future release? Or perhaps an optional zip for it?
[Desire Android Development] sfbanana:
I cannot down it？why?

call me other link，thanks
[Desire Android Development] volapyk:
If you choose settings/storm8 in your storm8 game you can create a user account and store your data. Then you can always restore your progress after flashing a new rom or buying a new phone.
