Problem with contacts after installing Star burst

Hi - I hope this is the right place to post this and appologies if not. Star burst installed fine (thanks by the way - it's awsome ;))

The only problem I have is since I installed it I get a force close on com.android.htccontacts whenever I try to open it (on startup for example). This started happening IMMEDIATLY after installing the ROM (on first start up).

I have read some threads on here that state the fix is to disable and delete facebook and google syncs - I have tried both of these to no avail. Also I found a fix that said clear the cache - unfortunetly when I try and do this in settings > applications I get the same force close and the cache doesn't clear. Is there a way to do this manually perhaps?

The error in log that seems to relate to this is:

<I was unable to post it because the site thinks it's a link>

Here is the info requested on the starburst site:

Size of sdcard used 16GB

Size of each partition created and type of partitions made (Fat32, Fat, ext2, ext3 or ext4), whether each partition was Primary or secondary circa 13GB Primary FAT32 and 1GB primary Ext4

Software used for partitioning (Gparted, Amon Ra recovery etc) Gparted from official live CD.

Recovery Software installed, with version and subversion number (Eg: Clockworkmod 3.0.0 R3) Clockworkmod not sure of version though.

Whether you are S-OFF or S-ON (If you dont know what this is, or you dont have the picture of a Joker holding a card, on the bootup screen, you are S-ON)Am S-off via alpharev.

Detailed account of steps you did for the procedure, with output/errors at each step as received from the Recovery/Partitioning software Followed instructions exactly - no errors during installation at all.

Did you do a full wipe from Recovery before installation? Yes.

If you didnt, what ROM were you running previously? NA but it was the stock desire ROM.

Version of the ROM you installed, and the names of the Data2SD installer/reinstaller flashable zips you used (if any.) flashed with StarBurst_Classic_1510.ZIP

If you’re using a custom kernel, full name of the kernel with author name, the kernel voltage if known, whether you have an overclocked/undervolted configuration Not using custom kernel.

Did you install any custom theme? Which one? No.

Did you flash any addons (mine or otherwise)? List them. No.

Did you get any of the following messages in recovery? No.

sd-ext could not be formatted, file already exists?

Failure mounting ‘sd-ext’

Or a message similiar to the above?

Step at which major error was noticed After instyallation complete (first startup)

Recovery log as per the procedure detailed below Is this needed for this particular error?
[Desire Android Development] britonk:
Just wanted to post up I fixed the above problem. For anyone else that gets this I had to do a factory reset in settings > SD and phone storage.

This removes the Data2SD so after the phone restarts itself do another restart to get the pink LED so that Data2SD can be set up again before you install anything :)

How to wipe the phone?

I guys,

Have just bought a Galaxy S2 and want to wipe and update my Desire before selling it.

Currently have Starburst 1.3.2

Tried to do the SETTINGS/SD & PHONE STORAGE/FACTORY DATA RESET, but everything was still there when finished (google account, etc)

I dont want to ditch Starburst, I just want to 'Factory reset' the phone, with no data/ account details, etc.

After that, I will update to latest Starburst for new owner :)

Also, would like to swap the 16Gb card out, to an 8Gb

And dont need to save any of the apps. New owner can do all that.
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Wipe from recovery, then do a military grade des wipe on the sdcard from windows.

Redo the installation process with new card
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Wondering how many of you still use Starburst even after gingerbread is released.. To upgrade Starburst or not to upgrade, that is the question.. ;)

@Droidzone:

Thanks a lot!

Now as I red the right site there were no more open questions.

I upgraded my Desire during the weekend from Starburst to Supernova WITHOUT ANY PROBLEM!!!

The update takes me just a few minutes all apps are still there and Supernova works without problems.

Thank you for your great work on Supernova!!! (and on Starbust as well!!!)

I've actually only just installed it for the first time and actuallyt chose it over other 2.3 ROMs available :)

My wife has a wildfire S with 2.3 on and it didn't blow me away to be honest.

Keep up the good work StartBurst is great :D
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
You chose quite wisely. And if the Gingerbread bug hits you, you can upgrade to Supernova any time without data loss.

I'm still on StarBurst. I've only had my working Transcend card for like a month now so I wanted to enjoy the blazing speeds with zero corruption for a while before flashing :)
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
The reason I asked is that

my scripts have had a major update in supernova.. If there are enough users of starburst, I could upgrade this rom too

Well, I for one am still using Starburst...won't be making the move to GB until there are kernels that support call recording...waited way too long for that! So I would definitely welcome any upgrades to the ROM...but I guess it would require a few more interested parties to make it worth your while ;)
[Desire Android Development] :
Any plans implementing HTC Sense 2.1 into StarBurst ROM? Just tried the SuperNova and GingerBurst ROM, but the best performance I got from running this amazing StarBurst - so I restored.

Have seen the improvements of HTC Sense 2.1 on the Wildfire S of my girlfriend and don't wanna miss them :-)
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
There is no realistic way of getting the same performance on a Gingerbread rom until we have the following for GB:

A kernel compiled from source

libsqlite patch
[Desire Android Development] :
So Sense 2.1 is running on Gingerbread only? Think then I'll wait with upgrading until HTC released the kernel.
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
No there are Sense 2.1 based DHD Roms-I havent made one of them yet.

I will be upgrading StarBurst to the latest stable scripts soon.. I've decided to use StarBurst too, and so I will be adding the latest version with updates

Hey, I've been using Starburst Data2SD for quite a while now but need to return my phone to Orange for a replacement.

How do I install a normal ROM back on the phone?

I'll be keeping my SD card so I'll probably install this ROM again when I get my replacement
[Desire Android Development] sibere:
I was thinking about rolling back to SB, but honestly I now have a stable and smooth phone. And I looove one feature: the "hibernate" mode and the almost instant ON I'm getting when I turn on the phone.

This is really important to me 'coz I have to turn my phone ON and OFF quite often because of my job :)

*FYI with the latest stable script, I have almost the same I/O quadrant score with SN X and SB :)
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
That's nice.. For me, however I feel a definite quicker response with StarBurst than with Supernova.. Attempting to build my own Froyo kernel now :) :)

Unable to upload (select) files in browser

Hello,

Using starburst, pretty much everything is oke, except one thing:

I can't upload files in a the browser.

More specifically, I can't select files to upload.

When I want to select a file, it opens up fileexpert (of ghost commander), when I select the file in there, it doesn't return to the browser with the selected file, but it opens the file.

For example when I have downloaded a .torrent file and want to upload it to the web interface of my NAS. When I try to select the .torrent file from the browser it tries to open the file instead of using it in the browser for uploading.

Any ideas how to fix this?

Thanks.

No problem with 1.1.6 version, tested as update from 1.1.4 with Data2SD reinstaller and from scratch with Data2SD installer, both worked perfectly.
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Thank you. I was getting tired of all the kernel issues! :)
[Desire Android Development] kl_arnet:
THX but I was cautious and had backup of your roms since v1.1.1 anyway ;)

I have couple questions as I don't want to do everything all over again.

I had window flip effect installed togather with PCB Theme:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=858115

and cooked icon/boot-screen pack from Kitchen.

As long as you upload framework or choose PCB from the list and reboot after each update, it is working fine with your Rom, so my Desire is phone my workmates desire ;)

...but after Data2SD window flip effect has gone.

Can I clean dalvik's cache or something else I should do to safely use Data2SD?

(I'll try one other thing but tomorrow at work).

Another question is:

Your Quadrant results ... 4863 CPU ... I get only around 3600 - 4000 (better results with Data2SD)

Here is my result:

Total: 1424

CPU: 3970

Memory: 1116

I/O: 1364

2D: 272

3D: 398

I know I/O will be low because of my MicroSD class2 card, but CPU? Are these as much related?

Also, I spotted one thing. When I try to overclock CPU above 998 Mhz I get random reboots/freezes.

Remove tool might be broken or I could use it wrongly (didn't reboot after updating theme and other Sense mods) so I end up with Bootloop.

At the end of this post I would have some idea/improvement/request. I know I can do it myself manually through ADB, but UI sound replace tool would be great. I've created FF7 sound pack and replacing from zip file would be great. ;)

...by the way, when I'm going to update to 1.1.6 should I just go Recovery, update, run reinstall script and then reboot, right?

And after I get bootloop or just not working apps again after update, is there any way to format/clean ext4 partition without formating whole SD card?
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
You might have got the bootloop on the 1.1.6 patch..

Just try the newly uploaded Rom after a full wipe from Nandroid. To answer your qn, this automatically formats sd-ext, which in this case is ext4.

Yes, you install the 1.1.6 rom zip, then reinstall if your system was working fine with Data2SD..But since you had bootloops, you dont have a clean system and in this case, a full wipe followed by full install is the recommended option

Introducing Third Party App Remover

Third Party App Remover Utility New!

Removes the additional apps and widgets including Adfree, TitaniumBackup, MyBackup Root, Astro, Explorer, Gmail Unread Count Widget, and SMS Unread count widget (and maybe some more) that come installed with the Rom on first install. Thus after running this program, you get a clean HTC Sense setup, but with the advantages of the latest Market update and the updates for all HTC/Google apps. Requested and added on the same day. Download link in OP.

This is in response to a request earlier today that there should be an option to provide a "clean" (in his words :)) HTC Sense installation in StarBurst. I feel that the request is quite justified :)

Instead of having to remove all the apps by hand, which I admit is a bit tedious, just flashing this utility right after the main Rom installation is complete would remove all the Third party apps included with the Rom.

There is most important for me

Please

Any help?
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Since I dont read Chinese, I wouldnt be able to recognize it.

Edit: I think it does support Chinese, looking at the files. I did add a lot of languages and locales. Maybe somone who reads Chinese could confirm.

thx Stupsi99
[Desire Android Development] Memphis007:
For those who have issues with the 1.1.6 version I can confirm that there is a problem on PVT4 devices, with PVT1 I got no problems (like I said earlier) but with the PVT4 device I can't install it. Back to 1.1.4, with leedroid one, no problems...

I tried with clockworkmod 2.5.1.8 (alpharev one)

In addition, when flashing 1.1.4 + Data2SD everythings works correctly, if you put Richardtrip kernel --> bootloop

I'm wondering why PVT4 devices can't run the Richardtrip kernel ?
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Maybe because it is an overclocked one..I'll probably be going to a non-overclocked kernel, probably Sibere's..Or one of Richard Trip's other kernels

Well...Mine is a PVT4 device, but with the conventional erase size, though I'm not sure if erasesize makes a difference. The only problem I'm facing is a problem with battery stats.
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
I'm sorry..You put App2sd+ on it? It kind of defeats the whole purpose of StarBurst, doesnt it? :) But it will work of course..

Year sure, as long as we don't have a patched sqlite lib, we will never get things as fast as SN :)

Thank you for the pictures!... pretty Claire!

I don't want to flame, troll, bust your balls..... or anything.

But tell me frankly after you will take a good look At your picture and then looling at my posted picture:

How can I GUES that MAIN ROM 1.5.1.0 (i) that you underlined, is actually Starburst 1.3.3.3 lastest of his kind.

I mean.. if i want MIUI 1.7.19 i'm going to the named link. If I want the latest Froyo I'm looking in your links for 1.3.3.3. isn't suppose to be normal?

In the given case.. I cannot guess that 1.5.1.0 is the latest, the one advertised, or something older who wasn't deleted.

Did you understand what is the message?

We are not talking about Rom Manager. We are talking about the links in the download page.

or to be more accurate: the name of the link and the rom to download.

Whatever... obviously we have a communication problem. Maybe I cannot explain exactly .. maybe he don't want to admit he's has wrong labels on the links...

whatever...

I will close the subject and forget his page... I don't have time to search and guess where is the rom and if 1.5.1.0 is the same with 1.3.3.3 advertised. .. or whatever name he puts.

Me.. out!

Are you sure that supernova ROM is faster (that you didn't write it wrong) ?
[Desire Android Development] sibere:
Starburst has a better Quadrant score because of the sqlite3 patched lib which is not available in SN

This patched lib caches sqlite to ram, boosting tremendously I/O score, resulting in a higher final score for SB

Hi all,

I hope someone can help me out here... I'm using Starburst Classic 1.5.1.0 for a long time now (very happy with it!) but, today, when I tried to upgrade google+ via the market I received following error:

"Insufficient Storage Available."

Via OS Monitor I see:

[Desire Android Development] :
Okay... now I'm thinking about switching to another rom. I had the 1.3.0 version running for some months. Three weeks ago, lot of force closes appear. Later on, i couldn't do anything because the core-process closes itselfs every seconds.

So I decided, to install the newer version (1.5.1.0) with a full wipe. All went fine. The rom was that fast as I knew it from the previous version. I did a full restore, installed my apps, my settings, etc. - took me a whole day. After that I did a nandroid backup.

It runs well for now 3 days... then the phone restarts unexpectedly. But after a restart, all is running stable. Yesterday, i had some force crashes on Google Maps - no way to use the app anymore.

And today: the phone restarts a second time. And after booting, all my emails, my contacts, my screen settings are gone. No market account. The data of the other apps seems to be present (tested some of them). But right from the start: again a force close from Google Maps.

Doing a nandroid restore now... and will have a look on the other available roms.

Sorry :(

most sense stuff missing after titanium data backup

Hi,

I upgraded titanium to 4.5.2.2 a couple of days ago, and my regularly scheduled system data backup ran today. After it was done, sense restarted, and my home screens were completely blank. My saved scenes were gone, and when I tried to manually build them back, I noticed that all htc/sense widgets were no longer in the list of available widgets (weather clock, etc all gone).

I tried going a restore all system data but it froze and I see now that a number of people have reported freezing bugs in this latest version of titanium.

Has this ever happened to anyone and is there something I should try before doing a complete rom-reinstall or nandroid restore (my nandroid is prob 1 month old)
