Is there any way to adjust the voltages for the "power saving" CPU setting? Or in any way when using an other kernel? My Desire keeps rebooting when I use GPS with 1 second polling. It happens sometimes after half an hour, sometime only after a couple hours, but it always reboots.
[Desire Android Development] berre:
hi ihlades,

hope your exams went fine and you're enjoying a nice break now ;)

just wanted to let you know that I'm still loving my 1.2

fast, great battery life and stable as hell (uptime for over a month now!!)

if you get around to it it would be great if you could provide a patch with the call delay fix that's floating around here on xda.

cheers!

[Desire Android Development] geemacd:
thanks for that, yeah its the stock app, but doesnt explain why things are being mucked up when viewing through my pc or does it ?????

I dont know, im losing it with this problem
[Desire Android Development] deleric:
desire problem..

Ih guys!!

sorry if I don't answer more often but I've a lot of work those weeks and I've time to try things on my phone only late at night..

I've tried to RUU my phone but the software couldn't find my phone and gave me an error message :S ..

the only things that actually work for sure is the charging and the led orange/green.

When I try to turn my desire on it use some power (after a complete charging I had to charge it again), but nothing append...

there is any chances to fix it?

thanks for yours answers!!
[Desire Android Development] wildcardspv:
I think it does, I can't explain why, but the stock gallery app is just that rubbish on all gb roms. Using quickpic I've had no probs managing/taking pics or dealing with pics via USB.

Try it, it may not be for you but its free and I reckon it'll solve your headache!!
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
You're going to have to get hboot to pick up a PB99IMG.zip of your RUU from your sd card then. May need to use a card reader to get it on.
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
I'd have to test. Have you an example download I can use for my tests?

I'm on 5.14.05.17 and the leaked RIL in my Sig. That RIL doesn't work for most.
[Desire Android Development] gen_scheisskopf:
Zenonia 3- about 10 MB and Stair Dismount- 11 MB, both free. Measurements are from CurrentWidget's log (15 sec refresh). I've flashed 5.09.05.30_2 radio for testing yesterday and battery drained during the night- constant 220 mA drain but no app in background and no active downloads (Market auto updates disabled)
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
4 Tests HSDPA, 4 tests GPRS (No Edge available) Zenonia 3

HSDPA Screen on:

474mA

355mA

HSDPA Screen off:

315mA

345mA (and 6mA reported also during this time, but it may not have actually been downloading)

GPRS Screen on:

476mA

474mA

GPRS Screen off:

276mA

246mA

I use Eviollet's ManU 1.4 HAVS AXI CFS by the way
[Desire Android Development] gen_scheisskopf:
6 mA is also in my logs- screen off, no downloads, possible widget updates (I suspect CurrentWidget and SwitchPro)

So it seems something is wrong in my setup, edge/gprs never used so little power- rarely under 500 mA, mostly about 600 with screen on and about 400 with screen off, running Redux 2.6.37 kernel

Could you give me exact versions of ril and radio you are using?

I'll check also ManU kernels
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
RIL is the HTC one (not Nexus) that leaked with the 2.3 Sense rom in this post here (it also has a copy of the latest drivers)

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=13006759&postcount=7416

For radio, go to the radio section in my toolbox thread:

http://androidforums.com/desire-all...oads-root-users-updated-29th-june-2011-a.html

Mine is the 3rd one from the bottom 5.14.05.17. Please use the mirror link rather than the main dropbox link.

EDIT> Rils are all in the toolbox thread too btw
[Desire Android Development] gen_scheisskopf:
Thanks for info and links

I guess it's not radio fault, I've used 5.14.05.17 for some time but because it made Desire hot I've changed it to 5.11.05.14

I'll check ril and ManU kernel

EDIT:

Leaked ril doesn't work for me- I've lost both 3g and GSM after 20-30 minutes since boot

Checking ManU 1.4 kernel now
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
No problem, you helped me now I can return the favour ;)

To be honest, I dont know many who have success with this RIL.

Kernel definitely worth a try. I find 1.4 better, but you may need to do a bit of link editing to get that if theyre not in the main thread.
[Desire Android Development] gen_scheisskopf:
TBH I don't understand why leaked ril doesn't "like" to work- hardware is the same in all phones (well, maybe except CPU OC capabilities).

Links to both ManU 1.4 and 2.0 are aviable, trying 1.4 now
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Indeed. Maybne its network specific.

2 people, same RIL, same Radio, Same ROM, works for some not others. Network only thing I can think of.

Keep me updated how you get on please..
[Desire Android Development] gen_scheisskopf:
I doubt it, all networks must keep standards.

Maybe some inner system settings (not adjustable by user) are the problem?

Did you install leaked ril right after installing Redux and factory reset?

Right now: ManU 1.4 (undeclocked as always to 691 MHz), default ril, radio 5.14.05.17- 3G download- max 430 mA with screen on- not much change but phone is hotter than it was with 5.11.05.14 radio

UPDATE:

Same setup, Edge download- 650-750 mA (not stable usage)

In both cases very good reception
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
I've installed the RIL under many different circumstances. On 1.2 I did it that way. Think I was on 1.1.2 when I first flashed it.

Edit> Theres something odd there.whats your 2G signal strength?
[Desire Android Development] gen_scheisskopf:
Mostly 4 bars on icon, sometimes 3, there are no lower drops. Same for 3G
[Desire Android Development] deleric:
Uh! what does it means? there is a guide to do that? :confused:
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
I can tell you how to do it. What was your original software version before rooting?
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Really odd one. Is this one of your own compiles?
[Desire Android Development] Dany0:
updates coming?
[Desire Android Development] gen_scheisskopf:
No, it's almost stock 1.2. Only changes are apps (replaced launcher, clock, added TitaniumBackup, removed some of gapps etc) and Settings.apk I've compiled. No other changes were made to any of system files.

Only thing that comes to my mind is that something more in hardware than display was changed in PVT4 (which I have)
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Display was changed? Didn't know that. I knew the later pvt 4 have a different nand chip.

So have you just noticed this?

Not to sound obvious, but might be worth flashing the normal 1.2 with normal settings apk and a wipe just for comparission
[Desire Android Development] gen_scheisskopf:
Yup, PVT4 has S-LCD (not AMOLED)

I was aware what I was buying. I can't say if there are more changes between PVT1-3 and PVT4 except for flash and dispaly, I didn't search for service manual or diagram (and I have no friends in HTC Service ;) )

I've already done this, no change in power usage using default .35 and newer .37 Redux kernels. That's why I started messing with radios
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Sorry when I asked if you have just.noticed this, I meant the 2g draw.

Surely more than pvt4 are slcd? Slcd came out last august. I would have thought pvt 3 was slcd and possibly some of pvt2?

That said, not sure what pvt I have. There are definitely more slcd desires than amoled though
[Desire Android Development] gen_scheisskopf:
I've noticed this when I installed CurrentWidget (about a month ago)

According to Alpharev hboot 0.93 was first to support slcd (mine was shipped with 0.93)

Boot to bootloader, PVT version will be displayed in first (stock hboot) or second (Alpharev hboot) line.

News about slcd version I've read is from end of July 2010, anouncement of Desire was in February 2010 so it's no surprise that there are more devices with slcd
[Desire Android Development] zokipirlo:
Does someone knows any solution around iGO "stuttering" problems?
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Ha ha. I know how to find out just forgotten which it is and can't be bothered to look ;)

Think its 1
[Desire Android Development] gen_scheisskopf:
Radio 5.17.23.05 onboard, looks like power usage for both 3g and 2g are about 50 mA lower but during wake-up phone draws 370-400 mA for 4-5 seconds (never happened with older radios- was 250-270 mA max)

I guess I'll have to find best radio for my hardware (or buy an external battery ;) )
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Yeah maybe..
[Desire Android Development] gen_scheisskopf:
It looks that radio is responsible not only for wireless traffic. Newest (5.17.05.23) reports current usage much more frequently than older ones- CurrentWidget was set to 1s update, current changes were visible every second while using older radios updated it 5-10 seconds.

Is radio rom some kind of bios?
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Radio is all kinds of things. It controls wifi, gps, mobile data, fm and voice, but it is also responsible for some hardware, for example - camera. Not sure why or of the full details, but some older eclair radios needed to be updated to get cameras to work on Froyo for example.

I always assumed that Current Widget literrally monitored what draw was coming from the battery. Hmm thats odd.
[Desire Android Development] gen_scheisskopf:
I suppose that battery chip is not connected directly to cpu. According to xda wiki there's also power management chip (TPS65023) and it may be the "true source" of battery readings for system and it's possible that its operation can be controlled by radio rom somehow (chip uses i2c interface)
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Interesting. Thanks for the info. I shall try to use that in conversation within the next week ;)

That may sound sarcastic, but I promise its not
[Desire Android Development] gen_scheisskopf:
This is my guess only (based on knowledge and datasheets), don't take it for sure
[Desire Android Development] howdid:
guys maybe time to change the rom? the dev is inactive since 2 months.....not a singel post ... i think this rom is dead
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
He tweeted his exams finish July 19th and that work on Redux 2.0 has already begun.
[Desire Android Development] CPUpgrade:
I'm still using Redux 1.2 despite the long wait for an update. The main reason is the battery life is streets ahead of any ROM I've tried.

I've satisfied my impulse to install a new ROM by performing a full wipe including SD card FAT32 and EXT3 partitions and re-installing 1.2 Themed fresh. I'm using the rxKernel-2.6.37.4-SVS-975-CFS and the apps_dalvik2ext-UNSIGNED and my phone is a happy bunny. Radio Version is 32.54.00.32H_5.14.05.17.

Camera working fine, WIFI & 2G/3G fine. Very rare FC's. All stable.

Again Battery life is not an issue anymore.

Top dollar ROM. The update can only be worth the wait, based on previous experience :)
[Desire Android Development] abhayks:
This dead rom is simply one of the best rom for Desire. Its not easy to find such a stable and fast rom. If you are of the type who needs weekly updates, you might try a MIUI or some nightly builds.

Others can just wait for the upcoming 2.0
[Desire Android Development] unde:
Which is his twitter account? I would like to follow for more news :)
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
no idea, wasn't me who saw it. Its between 10-20 pages back in this thread...
[Desire Android Development] pilsener69:
Here it is: http://twitter.com/#!/ihlades

Regards,
[Desire Android Development] roton:
Completely agree. It's faster and more stable than other roms. What more could you want?
[Desire Android Development] RAAAAAH:
This rom is well and truly bullet proof. No messing around with kernels, stupid settings and what not for battery life etc.

I was so close to putting stock firmware back onto my phone until I found redux!

I'd stay on 1.2, if there was no other updates, *just works*
[Desire Android Development] Teisemanden:
The only thing I cannot seem to find is a sound recorder. Either I'm a retard and cannot find it or it's simply not there. If anyone has got the original android recorder, I would be very thankful or could point me towards a solution :)

Otherwise I simply love the ROM!
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Someone told me about this and verified it myself. Although its in system/app and shows in manage applications, there seems to be a bug where its not in the app drawer.

I would look for a 3rd party solution if I were you as the android one is already installed
[Desire Android Development] glx-rider:
Is there any hope that this rom will come to the desire z?
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
You could try and.port it using dsixda kitchen but the.porting tools are experimental
[Desire Android Development] laba82:
Getting 3% per hour battery use. Otherwise very nice. Thanks.
[Desire Android Development] glx-rider:
Well, after using some hours just to downgrade and root my Z yesterday, i dont think i am ready for something like that in a while :P
[Desire Android Development] bunnybash:
Redux 2.0 approaches as ihaledes exams are nearing completion!!!
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Tomorrow they end I think.
[Desire Android Development] Teisemanden:
I see the problem, i too have it installed it seems, but it doesnt show up in the app drawer. I've found a substitute, lucky, so it's all good now.

Almost.. :) I've been trying lately to get my headset working, including the microphone without any luck. My phone will detect that i plugged a headset in, but i cannot control anything with the buttons (standard HTC headset) and the microphone doesn't pick up anything.. or the phone doesnt pick up that im speaking in the microphone. Is it a ROM related issue, or am i doing something wrong here?

If its any help, i cannot control the music app with the headset either.

Regards, looking forward to v.2 :)
[Desire Android Development] Serpente80:
**** Yeah ! ;)
[Desire Android Development] Bingley:
Any ideas what's coming in 2.0?

Not sure what's been suggested for this release in response to his Twitter call for ideas. Would love Google video chat (despite being rear-camera only) and, well, that's about it. 720p camera :) Still see they say it's no good on the Desire but it's way better than the 480p limit. Seems like we may have an official HTC Sense-free GB release, too - due to them not being able to fit it into the Desire's memory - would be nice if Redux could gut that release and incorp. the cam libs from it :)
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Won't be sense free. They'll just cut some /system/apps/ I bet. Maybe make some of it downloadable like the widgets
[Desire Android Development] yjlee168:
where can I find the original wallpaper with v1.2 themed ROM?

Hi all, I tried to get the original wallpaper back with Redux ROM 1.2 Themed. However, I don't know where it was placed. any idea? many thanks.
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
/system/frameworks/framework-res.apk/res/drawable-hdpi/default_wallpaper.png
[Desire Android Development] yjlee168:
Dear rootSU,

Thanks a lot. Yes, it's there. YJ
[Desire Android Development] DjLukeW:
hmm once again come across a strange problem. Happened a few weeks ago so wiped and reflashed. was fine until today.

Problem - Default camera app does nothing upon loading (its shows the picture but cant take a picture) , then followed by an FC.

However loading Camera360 the camera works fine?

Any ideas?
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
If reflash didn't fix, I'd surmise it was A data issue
[Desire Android Development] tmwtp:
That would be SUPER ;)
[Desire Android Development] MonacoHias:
Exams over, ihlades already tweeted it (from an iPhone :eek: ) 3hrs ago ... 9.41 / 10 points, VERY good! Congrats.
[Desire Android Development] DjLukeW:
I just wonder whats causing it. It was fine after reflash but only for a couple of weeks. And its only the default camera app that stops working
[Desire Android Development] bunnybash:
booyah!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
The only way is trial and error.

Do a full Ti backup. Then do a wipe. See if that fixes the issue. If it does, do a full Ti Restore and see if it returns. If it does return, wipe again and restore Ti 1 by 1 until you find the culprit.
[Desire Android Development] Desaf:
is the new redux 2.0 comming?
[Desire Android Development] Desaf:
does anybody knows when the new redux comes
[Desire Android Development] Large Hadron:
Give ihlades a chance - he only finished his exams today! ;)
[Desire Android Development] Desaf:
thanks i just needed to know. will be waiting for it.
[Desire Android Development] roton:
Is anyone else getting interference in the music player? Like when you listen to a song you can hear clicks but they continue even when you press pause...
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
I remove the player so couldn't say. Poweramp def works for me
[Desire Android Development] Abyss666:
I mainly use Winamp, but also with stock music player no problems, clicks or something else.
[Desire Android Development] ihlades:
I haven't posted here in a while, that's for sure. First of all: it's good to be back!

As I tweeted a few weeks ago, Redux 2.0 is being developed as we speak. I'd say a proper version will be released in a few weeks, given that I don't have a Desire nearby at the moment and I'll leave town for at least a week in the following days. Good news is I already have a barebone 2.3.4 Desire ROM compiled, with FM radio support and the call delay patched (albeit not tested). Speaking of compiling, I've switched to a new development computer, which is over 5 times faster than the Macbook I was previously working on => Faster and easier developing.

What should you expect from Redux 2.0? A clean, even more lightweight ROM than v1.2, focused on delivering a proper daily-use experience rather than tons of features. As a result some things may not find their way in Redux 2.0. Appearance-wise I've thought about a fresh-looking theme, I even made some mock-ups, but this isn't primordial.

When will Redux 2.0 be available, even as a beta? I estimate three weeks at the very least. Will it bring many new features to the table? No, and that's for sure. This wasn't the goal with Redux anyhow.

P.S.: Do you still know who I am? :D
[Desire Android Development] ceebs69:
Good to have you back, if only for a moment. Go have a good break. But come back soon!:D
[Desire Android Development] Srem:
hi all, i need some help please!

my super fast and stable redux 1.2 gave up on me today. gets stuck on the redux splash screen when booting. i think its an sd problem as it seems to boot up ok with sd removed.

any suggestions how i can recover without formatting sd and losing everything?
[Desire Android Development] /rant/:
Take out the SD and put it in a card reader on your computer. If you use Windows, you can simply perform an error check using Windows Explorer. Saved my ass a few times, but no guarantees ;-)
[Desire Android Development] Srem:
thanks trying now...

it says no errors.

boots ok with my old 4gb, hmmmm.

so whats the best way to recover? i could pull all backed up apks and pics and music etc off of the sd and then format? that would keep my phone settings but i'd just have to reinstall apps and move data back onto it
[Desire Android Development] bunnybash:
Welcome back! Just wanted to know if you have been rocking an iphone while you have been gone, I noticed a tweet from one! Eeeek

Sent from my HTC Desire [Redux 1.2]
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
It's probably just the ext partition gone funny. You can reformat in gparted but you'd need a nandroid backup to restore. So take a titanium backup on your old card. You may need to reinstall titanium if its partly moved to.the partition using a2sd.

All this assumes you're using a partition
[Desire Android Development] ihlades:
Yes, a 3GS is currently replacing my Desire. It's not a bad phone, it's just retarded.
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Hahah.

Once you get redux sorted, if you ever get time, it would be cool if you can give me some aosp compiling pointers please ;)

I've been working on updating your existing code to 2.3.4 but not quite there yet. I'm hoping to have it done before redux 2.0, because then that would take away the ability to cheat :)
[Desire Android Development] ihlades:
The best way would be to start from the barebone 2.3.4 AOSP code, and add features from there.
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
I tried that first but didnt get very far tbh.

What is the minimum requirements for AOSP to make it Desire compatible?
[Desire Android Development] ihlades:
device/htc/bravo, vendor/htc/bravo, vendor/whatever/products/bravo.mk.
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Hmmm I just took those out of your repository.

Sorry for spamming your thread. I'll stop now ;)
[Desire Android Development] Srem:
Thanks for the advice. It was indeed my ext partition, I reformatted and its fine. I actually decided a full wipe wouldn't be the end of the world so took some time setting up. All good now
[Desire Android Development] m0nn3:
hey ihlades,

wenn you make the 2.0 of redux

is there a chance that this version is compatible why any Sync ? such as MyPhone Explorer or so ?

now i can sync my events but the concats only show with go contacts or an other contact app but not with the stock..

and i dont will sync anything with google..

i prefer to sync with my Computer..

if you considered i was verry happy :-D

sorry for my bad English
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Are you sure these contacts are not just hidden in android contacts?
[Desire Android Development] hyakuman:
ihlades, good to see you back, buddy! enjoy your time away from exams and don't worry about these ingrates! ;)

been using redux 1.2 for ages now and no complaints at all so take your time with 2.0. although I think my sd-ext had a heart attack last weekend too. thank God for titanium backup auto-backups! :D
[Desire Android Development] m0nn3:
i can not select the contact only google contacts..

or i cant find this option to select the Phone Contacts..
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
On mine in contacts>Menu>Display options I have:

xxxxx@gmail.com

google

and

xxxxx@gmail.com

phone only, unsynced

Not sure if its the same, I google sync all my contacts
[Desire Android Development] MarcusBremen:
any ideas on how to get the status bar transparent??
[Desire Android Development] CdTDroiD:
Welcome back Ihades hope your exams went well... Its like luke coming back home in starwars lol... The legend of good batterys and faster speeds is back!
[Desire Android Development] CdTDroiD:
You need to edit the file "statusbar_background.9.png" in SystemUI.apk but you cant just edit it... it need to use .9 tool to recompile it then chuck it into Eclipse and boom... OR you could just use the ROM kitchen or have you tried and it doesn't work?
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Or open framework-res.apk in winrar, remove the image, edit and replace. You.don't have to decompile for images. Only xmls
[Desire Android Development] CdTDroiD:
You can't edit .9.png files that easy dude only normal pngs. You need to add the guide lines other wise they get all warped
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Hmmm. I stand corrected.
[Desire Android Development] CdTDroiD:
Took my ages to figure out how to do it lol
