I'm using RC3 since it came out and I don't have problems at all, no FC, no reboots, no nothing :)

For each new version or ROM I wiping everything and I don't use Titanium or other apps to recover my apps or settings.

Actually, since day 1 I start using custom ROMs I have only 1 reboot, but it was long time ago :)

Keep up with the perfect ROM ihlades :)
[Desire Android Development] hjklein:
If it is not the kernel fixing the "possible reboot" issues why did you change it?

Is it possible to download and use RC3 kernel in the snapshot?

Thanks for your help HJ.
[Desire Android Development] ihlades:
Sure, here's the link - click.

You know, you can use any AOSP kernel you'd like. I recommend couts99's one or Benee's vorkKernel.
[Desire Android Development] alex98uk:
Hi there, i'm looking at a new ROM for my brothers HTC Desire HD. Would this ROM work fine with Clockwork Recovery and does the video camera work? He wants it to work and I know some Gingerbread ROM's have got it working, others have left it until an official release.
[Desire Android Development] ihlades:
The answer would be yes to both of your questions: The video camera works and you can install Redux using ClockworkMod recovery. ;)
[Desire Android Development] alex98uk:
That's awesome, we shall get this installed later then :D
[Desire Android Development] O and O:
Thanks, I've downloaded it and will test it through out the day. Any idea on the vibrate on connection though with calls?
[Desire Android Development] LoDRpR:
yesterday evening I flashed Snapshot over RC3, without wipe.

No reboot, no exit to pin request, looking great!

One question: why do you keep this on RCs and not proper releases? I'dd say this ROM is a blast, much better than others.
[Desire Android Development] alex98uk:
Do you have a recommended Radio to use with this ROM, or is it just the latest?
[Desire Android Development] hjklein:
Thanks for your quick answer and the download link.

I will now test Snapshot with the RC3 kernel.

HJ
[Desire Android Development] MacCarron:
None that I know of I'm afraid..there is an application on the market that tells your phone to vibrate when a call is ended, but that's not as useful imho..

If you happen to miss another Sense feature, the possibility to mute the ringer by flipping the phone, take a look at Silent Ringer:

http://market.android.com/search?q=pname:ro.gugcreations.silentringer
[Desire Android Development] LoDRpR:
just found one negative difference between RC3 and Snapshot: on Snapshot I cannot connect to hidden network anymore (hidden SSID). This was the problem I got with previous rom also; using RC3 I could connect without problems to hidden SSID.

1. could this be from the kernel difference? or it has something to do with other changes?

2. if it's kernel, can I flash the old one in recovery?
[Desire Android Development] soronk:
i discovered that apn is wrong with swisscom (switzerland)

yes you can
[Desire Android Development] MacCarron:
Still no reboots whatsoever on the latest snapshot, approval x2 :p:p

On a totally unrelated note,this afternoon I was tinkering with my wifi networks and I thought of what might be a couple of great features requests :D

1- (probably already brought up, not that important) WiFi N

2- (not even sure if it can be done but it's something ALL android phones lack) Ability to lock onto the wireless access point with the strongest available signal if multiple are presents.

About point 2. I know for a fact that android detects multiple access points (same SSID), but it seems to connect always to the one with the LOWEST CHANNEL NUMBER.

In my case, I have 2 access points with the same SSID (aka "no virtual interfaces"), one on channel 6, one on channel 11, to allow clients to roam seamlessly between the two and separated by a frequency gap of 100mhz to avoid interference, Cisco style.

Well my phone ALWAYS connects to the AP on channel 6. I have tried switching channels on the APs to verify this theory of mine, and it holds.

Now,using applications such as WiFi Analyzer I can manually "lock" my phone onto the AP on channel 11, but like i said, it's "locked" and will stick to that access point without switching to the other one even if it completely loses the wifi signal.

I know not many people have multiple access points (let alone multiple wireless networks) but hey, I suppose most of us are geeks are we not? :p. If this could be implemented, it would be funktastik :p. Thanks in any case for your hard work ihlades :D. If you change your policy concerning donations or pick up drinking I'll be sure to help you get some beer :p:p
[Desire Android Development] zara999:
hi all

wanted to give this rom a try. Downloaded the RC3, as the snapshot isn't compatible with my oxygen boottable. Wiped my phone and tried to install using clockworkmod. The screen said 'installing' but the progress bar didn't fill up. After a while it said the zip was flashed.

Rebooted and then.... it just hangs at boot. No matter how long i wait. Tried removing battery and booting again. no use. tried re-wiping and re-flashing. no luck.

What to do??
[Desire Android Development] Meisterqn:
The Rom is really clean and smooth so far.

A little bit better than Oxygen this time but one big problem:

In Standby, the battery drain is really good but in usage, it´s horrible.

Today I got it down in 4 hours of non-heavy-usage.

Thats too much for me.

Could be the WLAN.

I´ll test it a bit.

Perhaps it´s better in RC4, then ;-)
[Desire Android Development] magic_moe_:
RC3 isn't compatible with oxygen boottable...RC4 will be.

you will have to flash another ROM till RC4, or just go back to your backup ;)
[Desire Android Development] LoDRpR:
I think you got this upside down :) Snapshot fits the Oxygen boottable, you should try this one instead of RC3.
[Desire Android Development] teicors:
I'm very impressed for the low battery consumption of this version.. But what means the time on the screen ? The time without charge ? Impressive how much battery drains "pulse" !!

Another error is when I try to use the usb thetering I have the message "USB not connected" and the option is not available. The logcat don't help me ...
[Desire Android Development] zara999:
Ah! Silly me. Isn't the first time my non-closely-reading got me into troubles...

I'll try the RC3-snapshot version then
[Desire Android Development] ihlades:
Hi, and thanks for the input. :) Please try flashing with a lower voltage kernel, maybe a HAVS version.

Are you using RC3 or the snapshot build? Could you tell me what kernel are you using and what's causing the battery drain? (Under Settings->About phone->Battery use)
[Desire Android Development] kartoffel1212:
I have no one Reboot with the Snapshot too !

Guys, i have a new 8Gb SDCard.... its long time ago.

512MB ext4 Partition and rest fat32 ? Is this Right ?
[Desire Android Development] ihlades:
First partition should be fat32 and the second one ext2/3/4. ;)
[Desire Android Development] kartoffel1212:
Thx my little Raccoon :p
[Desire Android Development] mariosraptor:
why does this have no Greek language?
[Desire Android Development] papepo:
What is snapshot?

I have reboots too

Thanks

[Desire Android Development] iltisanni:
Hi,

Im using the snapshot and I really like it.

But I have the same problem of battery drain in usage. in 35 minutes this morning I've only 86% of battery life, coming from 100%... just because I surfed in the train...
[Desire Android Development] papepo:
Very Thanks
[Desire Android Development] LoDRpR:
got this problem:

flashed this kernel:

problem disappeared! thx

PS. no reboots on snapshot till now :)
[Desire Android Development] iltisanni:
I installed ManU HAVS-AXI-CFS Kernel and will report if battery drain is better.
[Desire Android Development] sikz:
The rc4,what's the different between the normal rc4 and the manU
[Desire Android Development] l33chy:
Dude, read the FAQ in the second post ;)
[Desire Android Development] erto90:
Is the theme manager like in cyanogen present in this rom?
[Desire Android Development] nenominal:
Today I upgraded to RC4 and I had a reboot and a reset to "enter pin code".

I didn't wipe before upgrade and maybe that's an issue.

There is the logcat http://pastebin.com/bbB3sVjW
[Desire Android Development] ihlades:
Classic or ManU version?
[Desire Android Development] nenominal:
Classic version. I'm trying to install "Gun Bros" game. It requires additional files to be downloaded after the application is installed from the Market. I have the option to download to "phone memory" or "SD card". Either one I choose, the phone reboots or resets to "pin request".
[Desire Android Development] iltisanni:
As I told some posts earlier I flashed manU Kernel to test battery drain... 8% lost in 3 hours... but I didn't do anything.... Therefore Battery drain is not as good as it was in RC3....

Did You use different Kernels in RC3 and the Snapshot?

Maybe RC3 Kernel was the best....?
[Desire Android Development] jeffreyljb:
Need to wipe cache before install the new ROM?
[Desire Android Development] soronk:
I use the manu havs-kernel and i'm content...switched to smartass and between 128 and 1113 mhz
[Desire Android Development] Morpheus27:
dalvik-cache in rc4 for N1 partition

In rc4 this part from rc3 (copied from changelog):

"Moved dalvik-cache to /cache partition if there's enough space (for N1 partition table users)"

seems not to work anymore.
[Desire Android Development] ihlades:
Myup, I removed the script. I can post it here if you want, it's a simple matter of pushing it to '/system/etc/init.d'. ;)
[Desire Android Development] hjklein:
Thanks for your work and releasing RC4.

I looked in the changelog but did not find a clear answer.

Is standard RC4 the same kernel as RC3 or is the kernel from the snapshot?

Is "Gingerbread-HAVS-AXI-CFS" the manu kernel you used in RC4 ManU?

Thanks for your help

HJ
[Desire Android Development] Morpheus27:
This would be great :)
[Desire Android Development] ihlades:
The standard RC4 kernel is the same as in RC3, so no wifi problems. Regarding ManU kernel version, I've used GB-SVS-AXI-CFS for stability reasons.

Here it is. This is not a flashable .zip file. Extract and then push the 11dalviklocation file to /system/etc/init.d.
[Desire Android Development] suiller:
well done! just flashed RC4 with oxygen table & all worked like a charm

the only 1 issue I have is that after every reboot I get a "google partner" FC, anyway all the system seems to work in the right way, what is it this google partner? :confused:
[Desire Android Development] Hafficci:
Hi mates!! :D

@ihlades, buddy, really flashed about all the good work you do!! Keep it up!!! ;)

Now flashing RC4 "classic". After testing it, I'll write my feelings, ok??

Think about donations, I'm really sure you deserve them!! :p
[Desire Android Development] hellsyn:
Did you come from Oxygen? I remember when I had to upgrade to a newer RC this error came up, I think you will have to do a full wipe.
[Desire Android Development] hjklein:
I usually do a little “homemade benchmark” to compare kernels. Maybe the results could be interesting for others as well:

-settings:

Max screen brightness

WIFI on Sync off GPS off

-test:

2 times Quadrant benchmark

2min idle screen

15min idle with screen off

Attached are my results comparing both RC4 editions:

Result; Standard kernel is seems to be a little bit better than ManU kernel for battery life. Performance is equal.

Regards HJ
[Desire Android Development] suiller:
not directly... 1st I switched from Oxygen to Amethyst, then from Ame to Red, just wiped caches like usual

anyway the problem seems connected to these:

# ls -R|grep partner

com.google.android.partnersetup

./data/data/com.google.android.partnersetup:

./data/data/com.google.android.partnersetup/lib:

checked... are empty folders, I'll try to remove them from recovery :cool:
[Desire Android Development] LoDRpR:
I've flashed (without wipe) standard RC4 over Snapshot and, without restart, I've flashed over Benee's last HAVS CFS kernel. Works like a charm for ~ 5hours: no reboots, no wifi problems.

Question: is it possible to replace the kernel from the release before flashing? (and not make 2 consecutive flashes)
[Desire Android Development] gumbald:
Might have to give this a try now that there's the Oxygen partition support, I'll report back if there's any problems.
[Desire Android Development] ihlades:
Sure it's possible, but you may not want to go through all of this: Extract boot.img from Redux .zip, unpack boot.img, place your desired kernel over there, rebuild boot.img, replace old boot.img with the new boot.img, replace /system/lib/modules with the new kernel's /system/lib/modules.

Flashing twice is easier and less time consuming. :p
[Desire Android Development] hellsyn:
Ahh, good luck mate, I just remember the exact same error when upgrading an oxygen rom. Had to wipe.
[Desire Android Development] suiller:
OK worked... I just wiped the "offending stuff" (on recovery):

mount /data
rm -fr /data/data/com.google.android.partnersetup
rm /data/dalvik-cache/system@app@GooglePartnerSetup.apk@classes.dex
mount /system
rm /system/app/GooglePartnerSetup.apk
reboot

perhaps could be enough to remove the dex cache element, but I prefer to be sure... all google services still working so I suppose it is nothing important :rolleyes:
[Desire Android Development] tmwtp:
After using the SNAPSHOT kernel for a day i flashed this kernel http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11098624&postcount=874 and looks like its less battery using - 3% - 4% per hour in "using hours" :)
[Desire Android Development] mclaren2:
coming from oxygen then gingervillain i went back to a sense based rom today but after 10 mins of usage i recognized how slow that is compared to the 2.3 roms. now i installed yours and absolutely loving it. amazingly fast and the cpu settings are implemented nicely too. :)
[Desire Android Development] konstask:
Hello from Greece,

With RC3 I had many reboots,

With Snapshot my Desire was very stable (and thanks for the Greek language)

With RC4 Classic again many random reboots installing now the vorkKernel-2.6.37-HAVS-CFS-SIO-SLQB and I'll see
[Desire Android Development] LoDRpR:
this is exactly my setup -> zero problems and nice battery life
[Desire Android Development] suiller:
My actual & perfect setup is RC4 + coutts kernel @825 + overclock from 245 to 1190 on interactive governor, no killer app
[Desire Android Development] aCx85:
awsome rom guys love how fast it is and battery life.

I have a quick Question is there any option in here to turn off Radio ?

Im going to the US for 3 weeks and dont wanna rack up a big or any thing wanna be on the safe side.

I would like to turn off my Radio and just use WiFi

airplane mode wont let me use WiFi

I used some other roms where this was possible by the click of a button. Just need to know how in this rom.

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] faddys123:
What do you mean revamped the message I mean what have you done to it?
[Desire Android Development] davedes:
Love this rom but one thing I miss from oxygen rom is being able to move any app to SD. Would be cool if you could add the same to this rom. Keep up the good work...
[Desire Android Development] simonthor:
Just have an EXT partition on your sdcard. Every app will install itself there. You don't have to move apps.
[Desire Android Development] davedes:
I used rom manager to create a partition but I cant get the apps to install there...
[Desire Android Development] simonthor:
They should just install themself there?

Btw. You can't see that they have been moved to the sd-card.
[Desire Android Development] davedes:
With oxygen I could even move adobe flash to SD with it still working. RC4 does not allow you to move any app you want.
[Desire Android Development] davedes:
Please post link for coutts kernel download....
[Desire Android Development] virgoman:
Do you have the Turkish language in RC4?
[Desire Android Development] mintvilla:
hmmm, could you not just take out the sim card?
[Desire Android Development] suiller:
in my signature you can find a simple mirror... :cool:
[Desire Android Development] ihlades:
I guess you're talking about data connection via your operator? That can be turned off in Settings->Wireless & networks->Mobile networks->Data enabled. Disable it, and you'll see no extra costs. That's if I understood right what you are after...

Yes, Turkish is available.

Everything's automated and seamless. If your app is marked as installed to internal memory, then it is installed on the ext partition of your SD card. ;)
[Desire Android Development] mclaren2:
what im missing there, or might not have found yet, is to add a complete silence step to the volum down button. it was there on many sense based roms and also on gingervillain, that when i chose the volume for ringtone i can decrease it till there is option vibrate and then there is another option mute.
[Desire Android Development] aCx85:
Hey guys im having an issue with this rom lately with the rc3 and now the rc4..

when I flashed it it worked great all of sudden now I have no network... It cant find any leading me to have no signal or no 3g network nothing works.

APN is there and when I go to network operators I get " Error while searching for networks"

Like I said when I flashed it it worked great didnt need to add any apn info.

This started happening with RC3 came on here an seen the RC4 flashed it thinking it would fix the problem.

Tried rebooting also.

Suggestions ?

Hey guys,

Dow loading the new version as I'm typing this as I'm enjoying the snap shot.

2 issues though.

1. Is there a guide to the CPU settings as I don't know what does what really. All I know is battery for a quickly!

2. Also is minimalist text widgets working for anyone? Mine don't update its as if they're frozen in...

Thanks again.
[Desire Android Development] aCx85:
Any reasons for this would like fixed before I leave :S

messaging app

@ ihlades:

first of all: THANKS for a great rom! Hope you keep up the good work. Perhaps you can form a team!?

I don`t know if I am the only one wishing that but I`d really love to have my messaging app being white again. Perhaps you can add an option to get that?!

Thanks in advance
[Desire Android Development] awolbriggy:
Thanks for ROM, trying RC4 now...

Earlier (few pages back) you mentioned including another battery display option and asked for suggestions, so .... one method I don't see often enough (may because it is not possible with miui framework) is the one in MIUI with the thin line across the whole top (when 100%)....
[Desire Android Development] psygbert:
the fact is the random reboot/bootloop problem is an issue with aosp. even nexus s suffers this problem. google already acknowledged this issue.
[Desire Android Development] LoDRpR:
Although @psygbert is right about reboots in GingerBread, flashing another kernel (using recovery) solved the problem for me. I'm using Benee's HAVS-CFS (link in my signature) for about 2 days, no reboots or any other problem; I had it on RC3, then reflashed it after RC4.
[Desire Android Development] psygbert:
deleted: duplicate reply
[Desire Android Development] psygbert:
you can't be sure it solved the problem. i run oxygen with 10+ days uptime (with charging of course) without experiencing reboot. then suddenly, when my sister called me, the phone just reboot. sometimes it just takes more time to reproduce the issue.
[Desire Android Development] mclaren2:
is there a speed fix possible for this rom? currently im copying 2GB of mp3 files on my sd card and it takes something like 2 hours (200KB/sec)
[Desire Android Development] soronk:
Try to copy through adb or use the usb mass storage option in the recovery,seems to be a gingerbread issue...
[Desire Android Development] yeti.p:
It's a known issue using a .37 Kernel. You have to flash a .35 kernel.
[Desire Android Development] tekhop:
I noticed an improvement in usb speed when copying files from recovery (AmonRA - enable MS Storage)

btw coutts last kernel seem to speed it up even in normal usb transfers.. at least for me

I am getting boot loops with this mod. working with the SNAPSHOT.

anyone else ? :confused:
[Desire Android Development] ihlades:
Well... :D Not really. RC2.1 was the most stable of them all, and that's an AOSP build too. ;) RC5 will focus especially on bugfixes. Some important bugs have already been solved.
[Desire Android Development] psygbert:
possibly. but google already acknowledged that it is a bug and they are working on it. they are able to reproduce it.
[Desire Android Development] tmwtp:
On which RC \ Version does it work for you ?
[Desire Android Development] Hafficci:
Good afternoon!!

Already running RC4 without any FC, lag or the like!! So, THANK YOU VERY MUCH, IHLADES FOR A F*+KING WELLDONE WORK!!! :D

Just one issue that, at least for me, comes from the very first release I tried. Don't know if is the case in all Ginger bread based, cause is at Oxygen too: A2SD+ seems not to work as good as it does at Froyo's ROMs. It works, yeap, but in a "lazier" way, if I can tell :(

I've uploaded two screenshots from Dropcap, for you to seeing what I'm talking about, ok??:

As you could see, nearly the half of what I install go to internal, and the other half go to ext. Is that what expected? I think that, at Froyo, almost the whole go to ext, and only a small amount go to internal memory...

Any help??

Thank you very much!!!

P.S: Don't know if the zip you uploaded, @ihlades, could fix this (via adb or RootExplorer).
[Desire Android Development] pongster:
Possible that the dalvik-cache and data/data (which contains all the app specific libs) take up the bulk of the Internal space. Moving dalvik (though not really recommended for performance unless you have a fast sdcard) can free up 50-80MB. I wouldn't suggest moving data/data as it can cause problems when updating apps.
[Desire Android Development] Hafficci:
Thank you, mate!!

My SD card is class 6, so I assume it to be faster enough, isn't it??

I've heard about the issue with Market for moving data/data to SD, and It is not my intention at all (being S-OFF, I've not got problems with space, I wrote it only for fixing purpose, if possible). Not even the dalvik, although It is "at stock" at RC4, if I remember well the changelog... :rolleyes:

I've all the apps I want, and 100Mb free, but at another Forum I use to "be", there's a lot of S-ON guys with space problems. Is for them that I ask you :p

Thnx a lot!! ;)
[Desire Android Development] nickownzya:
This rom is totally awesome :)

Since I didn't want to abdicate the oxygen hboot, RC4 was the first version I've flashed and now I am really hooked of your rom :D

Keep it up!
