I don't get it. Time and time again I have tried adding my apps to teh ROMs so I can get them installed after flashing and not have to waste traffic dloading from Market, but it has never ever even once worked for me, on any ROM. I am pretty sure I am doing it wrong :(
[Desire Android Development] rickbosch:
Found another minor bug. When busy with multiple downloads, when one completes the swipe to clear notification doesn't work.

It disappears and the comes straight back. Minor, but I thought you'd like know.

Cheers
[Desire Android Development] rickbosch:
Are you s-off? Here's how I do it:

- Flash ROM

- Use root explorer to access the ROM zip and I extract all the files.

- Head to the extracted files and access system/app

- I then delete all the apps I don't want and paste the .apk's of the apps I do (zeam,root explorer and titanium)

- Then I'll zip it up again and flash with a dalvik clear.

some apps I can't get to work 100%, like Quickpic, but I've been using this method with all ROMs I flash.

Hope it helps.
[Desire Android Development] virus2013:
Little off topic but you've done the same mistake than I had, you copy your signature in the Android App. You don't have to ! We didn't see signatures in the app but they are on the web version. If you look at your last post in a browser, you'll notice there are two sigs...

Hi

what is last version

and how can i apply a2sd+ to version 1.2 themed
[Desire Android Development] johno168:
Latest is 1808 snapshot. Use the search.
[Desire Android Development] gen_scheisskopf:
Latest is Redux 2.0 snapshot (download links few pages ago)

Redux 1.2 has a2sd onboard, all you have to do is to repartition sd-ext (first partition has to be fat32, second- ext 2/3/4 which is sd-ext partition)

EDIT:

I've checked logcat- TB process is created but dalvik vm dies, no error is specified. Tested after wiping TB data and dalvik-cache

EDIT EDIT:

I think I've pinpointed problem- TB installed as user app creates libtitanium.so in app data while run as system app this lib is not created. However it seems all other files are deployed (busybox, libsqlite and licence file import)
[Desire Android Development] Abo FaHaD2:
so when we will get the final not snapshot
[Desire Android Development] johno168:
I'd give a month give or take probably more to develop this amazing rom. Depending on all the fixes/add-ons he does. This would also need time to be tested making sure everything works. If your worried about snapshots being un-stable DON'T. They are very if not almost stable. I presume, its more stable than Cm nightly
[Desire Android Development] abhayks:
The more appropriate would be more Stable than stable version of CM and almost all Sense ROM.

:D
[Desire Android Development] d1n0x:
Any way to do this? Large clock looks terrible imo
[Desire Android Development] rickbosch:

[Desire Android Development] ihlades:
Yeah, use the latest version from the Redux2 thread.

I had for the third time the phone freezed. :(

Only removing the battery I got the control of the phone.

At the startup the phone shows the time of the 1st jan 80 (!!!).

I took the log from logcat, but nothing was useful (for me) to understand where the problem lies.

I'm using the 1808 snapshot.

May be this can be useful:

hi all

loving Redux and since quick controls added (and beautifully revamped) made the jump from v1.2: thanks ihlades! good job!

don't know if it's on the to-do list but i use auto-sleep power-widget a lot. just in case... :)

is it an illusion or is it possible that usb speed is faster now (double the previous speed)?

looking forward for what's to come!

Market 3.1.3

So it looks like at some point yesterday my Market has updated to 3.1.3 and now I can't update or download any apps as I get a message saying 'The application Market (process com.android.vending) has stopped unexpectedly...'

I've tried clearing data, wiping cache, re-flashed the rom, I've even un-installed the Market update but it keeps re-updating every few mins. The only thing I haven't done is a total wipe n flash.

Any one else experiencing this problem or have any other suggestions??
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Uninstall MarketUpdater.apk from the rom.zip in /system/app then reflash the modified rom Or if you're s-off, delete it with root explorer.
[Desire Android Development] gen_scheisskopf:
...or integrate update into rom using AndroidCommander

1. reboot to recovery, mount /system and /sd-ext

2. connect to pc, launch AndroidCommander

3. make a copy on pc then delete /system/app/Vending.apk

3. copy /sd-ext/app/com.android.vending*.apk to /system/app (renaming is not necessary)

4. reboot the phone

There's no need to delete file from /sd-ext/app/, system will do it during boot
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Thought he didnt want the update?
[Desire Android Development] gen_scheisskopf:
It's worth to try, my experience shows that Market running from /data/app (or /sd-ext/app) didn't like to work correctly
[Desire Android Development] amrak69:
Would love the update if I could get it to work!

So here's what I've done. Moved fresh copies of Vending and MarketUpdater.apk from Redux 1.2 rom to /system/data (deleting old ones). Once re-booted after a while new market updated and again keeps crashing. Moved com.android.vending1.apk from /sd-ext/app to /system/data (deleting old one) and then rebooted but still getting the error and crashing.

So it looks like I'll have to start over again but this time remove MarketUpdater.apk unless anyone has any other ideas to get this running right??
[Desire Android Development] Panoply_Prefect:
Ummm... I got Market-crash when the new update came, so I just went Settings--->Programs---->Market / Remove updates.

Back to old market, everything works fine. Dunno if this update will be forced later on though.

whats the difference between redux v1.2 and redux v1.2 themed?
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
A theme. One has green bits
[Desire Android Development] hello247:
sorry i should of been more specific on the question. what color is the not themed version and the themed version, as there is no screenshots that i could see.
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Ah. Standard GB colours. Black status, green status icons, white pop up with black header and Orange overscroll

They'll work but you may need to reset them. I like the manu kernels by eviollet myself
[Desire Android Development] hello247:
nice i like to use manu kernel too. will manu 2.0 work on redux 1.2? im aware of redux 2 you cant use manu kernel .
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Yes. It's just redux 2 it won't work on

It'd be best if you had another SD card laying around. It could be that your current one is corrupt.
[Desire Android Development] berre:
Hi,

I've first removed the update in settings => applications

then I've renamed MarketUpdater.apk to MarketUpdater_disabled.apk in the /system/app dir using Super Manager

I could then start the market again and download an app but the 2nd time I've opened the market again the new version appeared :confused:

Is it possible that the service is/was still running? Any advice?

Cheers

[Desire Android Development] gen_scheisskopf:
Renaming .apk does nothing from system point of view- registered activities still remain the same. Only way to disable MarketUpdater is to remove it from system
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
...and removing it definitely does the trick.

fm radio not receiving

having moved over to redux1.2 just yesterday i'm amazed at the speeds, lack of bloat & well it's the OS i've been after for ages. many thanks to the devs for all your hard work & creativity.

only issue is the fm radio seems unable to pick up any stations. all i get is static hiss. is this unique to me or a known fault?

i'll admit i had a look around to see if i could download an alternative from the market. i think im betraying my ignorance here : )
[Desire Android Development] virus2013:
First of all, there is a 2.0 now if you like Redux. Really stable, as good as this one.

For your radio, try to look into settings and check if the frequencies range is the right for your place.
[Desire Android Development] gascomm:
yes, i had the same problem on uk & other regions tested.

would you know where the v2.0 is? i've searched & failed to find it : /
[Desire Android Development] virus2013:
Here it is :

For the FM, which radio do you use? I mean the phone's one, not the station you're listening ;-)

hehe, i forget which one is currently in use as i tried a few in an attempt to get the fm radio app working on 1.2 with no success.

currently sporting the newest build of 2.0 with Launcher7 & boy oh boy - feels like a new phone!

i have a problem with data2ext.

I dont know how to solve this problem. After flashing the rom, i created an ext4 partition (1GB) then i used this instruction:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10692249&postcount=1299

but everytime i try to install the app2sdkiller.zip it says installation aborted because of missing this file: META-INF\com\google\android\update-script.

I just want to increase my internal storage from 148MB to 1GB. Any1 an idea why this ain't working?

Any help would be awesome! Thanks in advance! Btw i love the speed and battery performance of this rom, thumbs up to the dev.!
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Just remove /system/etc/init.d/10apps2sd from the rom, make sure you have no data restored (do a wipe) and then ignore the apps2sdkiller section. The a2sdkiller.zip has the update-script missing, which is nothing to do with this ROM tbf.
[Desire Android Development] BeatB:
I have also tried this solution but amonra wont let me flash., it cries : app2sd is. Missing,installation aborted.
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
What are you flashing when it says that?
[Desire Android Development] BeatB:
My procedure: unpacked the original themed ROM then deleted the file 10apps2sd, zipped again, copied to sd then booted in recoery. Last part was flashing the modified zip file.
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
You can't unzip and rezip. You can open the zip in winrar and close with the x after modifications but you cannot unzip
[Desire Android Development] BeatB:
still doesnt work..i dont understand :(!

now i opened the original rom.zip in windows and deleted the 10app2sd file then closed the zip file. mounted the sd in recovery. tried to install then again this appears.

install from sd card...

finding update package...

opening update package....

verifiyng update package...

So i get i right, there won't be any cm settings in this rom?
[Desire Android Development] Serpente80:
Just flashed from Redux B2 without wipe. All is working fine and smooth atm :D
[Desire Android Development] ihlades:
No, there won't be any CM settings... However, I'm thinking of inserting a new menu in settings, called "Interface", where to put all these little interface features like lockscreen music controls or the notification power widget.

P.S.: For those having issues with Skype, remove the "ro.kernel.android.checkjni=1" line from /system/build.prop. An updated RC2 will be uploaded later today.

[Desire Android Development] magic_moe_:
works fine with Extended Controls.

ehh...this is Android 2.3.1...so some apps don'T work because they don't support 2.3.1 yet...

Thanks, buddy!! I think you're doing a really amazing work!! And still not welcoming donations!!! :p I think you're a really Android cheff!!! ;)

@ihlades, have you used a different script to prevent battery draining while the screen is off?? I'm looking forward to seeing that working!!

I think that battery draining is the "battle horse" (as we say in Spain :p. Not know if it fits english...:rolleyes:) for Gingerbased Roms for Desire... At least, at the moment!! ;)

Keep on the edge, ihlades!! ;)

my last question. what is better ext3 or ext4? speed? or whats the big difference between these 2 formats?

[Desire Android Development] nickola:
Hello,

My Desire has had Redux 1.2 for some months now without problems, but this morning I'm getting very annoyed with some Google Market update.

Checking my apps for updates this morning, I got Market 3.1.5 installed without any notice. And worst, It keeps ForceClosing right after I accept the installation of any app.

I've uninstalled it (Market 3.1.5) through Settings/Applications, and through Titanium Backup, but everytime it reinstalls right after.

At the moment the only way I have to install/update any App is to uninstall Market 3.1.5, install through Android Market 2.3.3 (which is included in the ROM), then I have the app updated/installed and Market 3.1.5 back again...

Thanks for any help

Nickola
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
You need to get rid of system/app/marketupdater.apk.
[Desire Android Development] brynte5:
i have the exact same problem as nickola:-(

"You need to get rid of system/app/marketupdater.apk."

if i do this, will i be able to get it again, if i want to later on?

it´s available for download in the market, right?
[Desire Android Development] gen_scheisskopf:
Yes, you can restore MarketUpdater.apk but it's not in the Market

-grab it out of Redux2.0 installation package

-install Google Apps (gapps) CM7 package- goo-inside.me/gapps
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
s-off can freeze in titanium or

su
pm disable com.android.vending.updater

In terminal
[Desire Android Development] Sandrioni:
That works for me!
[Desire Android Development] brynte5:
why is there a problem with this to begin with?

is there something wrong with the new version of the market app?

seems to be working for some but not for others!?
[Desire Android Development] gen_scheisskopf:
My guess- new Market stores it's data in slightly different form than older one which is different enough to cause FC's
[Desire Android Development] snlzkn:
So redux users will not be able to use this new market at all? Instead of interrupting market's update, I was hoping to find a method to get the new market working. Any ideas?
[Desire Android Development] gen_scheisskopf:
-try wiping market cache (settings->apps->manage apps)

-try merging update into rom using TB or manually (remove /system/app/Vending.apk and move there /data/app/com.android.vending-*.apk, * is most likely 1 or 2)

-wipe Market data but all most apps will not be marked as installed after this (so no update notifications)
[Desire Android Development] snlzkn:
Unfortunately I cannot do what you have told. I tried terminal emulator with su, my system is read-only. I tried adb remount and adb shell. I was able to rename MarkeyUpdater.apk to mu.apk but I received directory not empty error and the mu.apk had 0 bytes. I tried to move com.android.vending-1.apk but I could not.

I have S-ON but I remember there was a way of changing the system files like temporary S-OFF, however I could not find it.

At least it does not update all the time :)
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
You need to delete it from the rom.zip and reflash the rom. remember not to unzip the zip file. Open it in winrar or whatever, delete and close with the x when done.
[Desire Android Development] snlzkn:
Ok, by doing

adb reboot recovery

and mounting system as rw. I was able to erase Vending.apk and move com.android.vending-1.apk to /system/app folder.

I also cleared all the data.

Now when I open the Market it is the new market but it still crashes when I click on accept and download :(

Any other ideas?
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
did you try the setting language to English (US) trick?
[Desire Android Development] snlzkn:
It also did not work. The formatting of the phone numbers also became really annoying :D

Now I am using the old market. I assume that new market is working on many other HTC Desire GSM Redux 1.2? I might switch to some other ROM just for fun soon.

BTW I heard about Redux 2.0 being mentioned around July 2011 but was it cancelled?
[Desire Android Development] sassinapoli:
hI Guys.

Now i've stock rom rooted. i Like very much the notification bar, how can i apply only notification bar in stock rom?
[Desire Android Development] WhoDunnit:
I encountered the same problem with the new market. Turns out that my cache partition is not accessible for others and since the new market downloads to /cache it needs access to /cache. I think you might have the same problem.

So from a shell (with root access) execute

chmod o+x /cache

and you will be fine. I tried to change init.rc to reflect this behavior, but that doesn't seem to work. If anyone knows how to make those permissions sticky please tell me, else I have to manually chmod every time I need a reboot.
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Thanks, this works.

BTW can add to init.d script as chmod 777 /cache or use script manager
[Desire Android Development] MightyBen:
Would this work if you have a small Cache-Partition? Normally all the Downloads should be forwarded by script anyway, but since the cache partition access seems to be necessary this brings up some questions :)
[Desire Android Development] WhoDunnit:
Thanks init.d works; why doesn't init.rc work?
[Desire Android Development] gen_scheisskopf:
Because it's hardcoded in initramfs and system will never use custom one (unless you change initramfs)
[Desire Android Development] tbaxter08700:
Pretty good Tom although I keep having to uninstall updates for the market as it keeps force closing then re updating. Anyone have a fix?
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
1) delete marketupdater.apk from /system/app/ to prevent market updating or

2) Create a script in /system/etc/init.d that will

chmod 777 /cache
