OK, since my test place is still in recovering phase, i have to put this test here.

Caution: if you don't know what it is for, just skip and wait. :)

http://www.multiupload.com/E4HC23V6SU

this new init built in with new detect function of EU/TMOUS, and the RAM support with the following parameter:

ram_data=1; will move the dalvik-cache into RAM.

ram_data=2; will copy .so files under /Desire_DL/ramfs/lib/ into the ram, you have to manual create this folder and copy the so files into that folder.

ram_data=3; will use RAM as /cache

ram_data=4; will copy framework files under /Desire_DL/framework/lib/ into the ram, you have to manual create this folder and copy the framework files into that folder.

sorry, too late for me to test it, have to sleep now, if you encounter any problem, and freak is not around to help, then just roll back and wait for our fix tomorrow.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] DJW6927:
Hi Dandiest (and crew!)

Don't want to be a pain in the bum....or nag you guys. Can see you're up to lots of very ambitious stuff. But any news on the rosie.apk for the Z build?

Maybe its a little thing but it'd it'd make a hell of difference to me if you still plan that?

Should I try the rosie stuff here... is that working or not guys?

sd_boost

Version 4.2 & Hotfix

I treid to used sd_boost=1 damage all the settings and htc.sense dont work anymore its all disappeared. :(

then, I disabled the sd_boost all settings appeared normaly but the system makes a self reboot many times a day.:confused:
[HD2 Android NAND Development] sh_mohanna:
I like the stock arabic font, so plz keep it and provide a method to change it for the people who would like to.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Daekin:
great...could you please explain all pssibilities? each option does affect different thing, so after setting specific option...what boost should I expect in what scenario?

and also...to the manually copied (or moved?) files - should I search for all so files in the system partition and copy/move then into that folder - from what folders should I copy files there? (sorry if that is stupid question but I have not search whole root partiiton..I suppose so files in /system...but can they bew elswere too?)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Zell Dinch:
I think it will be much quicker with app2sd. With data2sd it's so laggy
[HD2 Android NAND Development] jmmmmm:
Looks like its properly detecting my TMOUS now. Log file:

Congrats for the job in DesireHD v1.3 ROM, it was very good.

One question:

After installing the DesireHD v1.3s is normal that we stay with just 60mb free on the ROM? how can I free up more memory?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] men$hoot:
Yes, same problem here with 4.1 & 4.2 w/ hotfix 2. My phone makes a random reboot. Now, I installed 4.0 at the moment it works normal for daily used.

I'm using Lexar 16 gb class 6.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dandiest:
I continue improving the RAM fs, developed a new version and I have tested for several hours, result looks very good.

if you set a ram_data mode, must keep it unchanged, unless use the below method to revert it back to normal.

Once you used one mode, say ram_data=1, and want to try other mode, must use ram_data=11 to revert it back to normal status.

Some theory for each mode:

I have tested mode 1 and 4, mode 1 should definitely improve the performance, while can not feel much improvement of mode 4.

btw, you can use file explorer navigate to /system/squashed/lib to copy the .so or /system/squashed/framework files to sdcard.

This can only be used for DesireZ v4.2, DesireHD v1.3 and DesireARB v1.3.

[HD2 Android NAND Development] hakdogan:
Does anyone have an idea about this?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dandiest:
I added a lot debug output in the new version I just uploaded, can try that one, and you can even try ram_date=1 if you didn't install a lot app.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dandiest:
you can try, but i'm afraid the v4.0 is not compatible with v3.0 series.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] hakdogan:
I understand.

Does just enough to back up the application folder in ext4 try it.

I protect the application folder of partition ext4 inside.

Now the installation.

Thanks...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ehsan76:

RAM init problem

ram_data=1 makes phone painfully slow... :(
[HD2 Android NAND Development] hakdogan:
Hi Dandiest.

I would like to give feedback for 2 issue about

1- Rotatable launcher not work.

2-Button in the lower right corner does not react.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Daekin:
really? for me it boosted the speed much - now it is almost as fast as DZ 3.5 (because 1.3s using format_ext4=9 made it painfully slow.....I am going to repartition my SD card manually using gparted and I suppose I will he the fastest Sense HD ROM :))

update: repartitioning using gparted worked...now it is much faster - that autopartitioning is not good, it did not align the partitions to MB, it also lefy about 8MB unallocated at the end of the SD card)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] BoneMo:
yes really...even a lock screen was reacting much more slower....it was very laggy...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] BoneMo:
1- you delete the com.rosie....apk and replace it with this rosie.apk (http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=530198&d=1298950575)

2- use the program with green hand called LaunchKey
[HD2 Android NAND Development] kuku2004:
applied the latest fixes and things improved dramatically, mainly because hotfix2. but still have some lag specially when launching an app and waking up.

btw, it takes about 5(!) minutes to boot! is it suppose to be like that?!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] hakdogan:
BoneMo thank you for the answers.

I understand.

I looked, Rosie.apk isn't installed on my phone.

In this case, I don't do the removal process.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] BudaLa87:
whats the difference between those two links and how do u install them?

I downloaded both, and in boths there's initrd files.

Usually u put them in the root of ur sd card and reboot, but dandiest were talking about ram_data1/2/3/4. Do I have to create a config.txt file with the commands inside?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Daekin:
hmmm....what about your SD card? manufacturer, class?

and have you formatted it manually or used format_ext4=9 ?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] hakdogan:
According to me, version 4.2 Faster and stable than version 3.5
[HD2 Android NAND Development] aftabbabar:
update_dl will not work after the new hot fix. yes the rom is faster but I can't update it. Update folder still stays in SD after reboot.

Battery life has take a sever turn for the worst with the lastest version. Phone wont last a day with no use now. I set my fully charged phone on my desk this morning and when I picked it up 8 hours later the battery was completely drained.

Anyone else notice battery life shortened?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Snarksneeze:
I have also noticed a major drain in the battery compared to older versions of DLZ.

I tried 4.2 (once again) with the hotfix installed, but I continue to have problems.

The phone stopped taking phone calls and SMS (though data continued) and I racked up a few voicemails this afternoon before I figured it out. When I rebooted and found the calls, I tried to return them but the Robot Voice was back. I'm flashing back to 3.4 and hoping dandiest is working on a newer, mo' betta version now.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dandiest:
I have done some testing about the RAM fs, very interesting result:

1. for mode 1, when the dalvik-cache is below about 50M, it can boost the performance dramatically, above that, very very painful, system can not even response.

reason behind it: Sense is very RAM intensive, below some amount, it can not even survive.

2. for mode 4, move the framework into RAM, still no much difference I can feel, even the boot time.

Reasons: during the initiation, system will establish the dalvik-cache for framework and app, after that, look for dalvik-cache instead the apk files under /framework or /app, that proved putting those files in RAM do not help.

Conclusion: before you making use of the RAMfs instead of just test, make sure the files that will be put to RAM is below 50M, you can use: adb shell du -k xxx; xxx is the folder that either in /data/dalvik-cache or /Desire_DL/ramfs/

I have another idea, since the dalvik-cache is good for improve performance, but can only be below 50M to put into RAM, we can pick up some more frequent access dalvik-cache into RAM, say, the dalvik-cache for framework, which is about 40M.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dandiest:
as I just explained, can not put too much into RAM, the nand_data should be fixed in last last version, maybe we broke it again? :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dandiest:
really? can post the init.log?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] BoneMo:
it is installed when you have HTC Sense..

you must look to /system/app and there is some apk called like com.rosiewidget..something like this and it has the same icon as rosie apk.

so delete the .apk with same icon as rosie.apk....then copy rosie apk to /system/app and restart phone
[HD2 Android NAND Development] BoneMo:
manually formated by gparted, class 6 16GB, manufactured by A-data
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Daekin:
thanx for explaining... :)

look at the nand data - 1st boot after enabling them is OK, 2nd boot is freezing at black screen with your logo

and about ram mode 1 - I totally agree for putting the cache for framework and maybe system apps there, no user apps - maybe that would be able to fit into 40 MB....
[HD2 Android NAND Development] joeatx:
Hello Guys,

I also have problems with the battery lifetime....

I test a cpu underclock tool... for screen off

this is my first post on XDA (at some point it's always the first time), I read almost every day, I learnt so much from you all !!!

it is time to say thank you @ dandiest, freak and friends, Congrats for great job in DesireZ v4.2.42 ROM it is very good, really :)

thank you all so very much

PS: set for the user not have their signature please edit the signature devices, it is very helpful

[HD2 Android NAND Development] ATomCZ:
Sorry I accidentally write my problem to SD version but it should be here:

Yes latest init do restore the same like old restore plugin, everything is OK to first restart, then it show dialog "UIDs on the system are inconsistent, you need to wipe your data partition or you device will be unstable" :-( And everything data are gone. Did you already try restore backup on your device? It works for you?

I have 4.2.42 NAND version with latest initd update.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dandiest:
You restored to different build, right?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ATomCZ:
Yes I made backup with older version of DL Desire Z, then upgrade to latest, completely reformatted card (with your init script) and now I want restore backup. I don't use Titanium Backup because you told that your method is better. It doesn't support restore to never version of your roms?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] aftabbabar:

I moved from this ROM to another but I am missing an awesome wallpaper from this build here.

Its a static black pyramid-like wallpaper with red.

Could someone please be so kind and extract this one and share it with me? Would be awesome!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] BillTheCat:
I'm no expert, but I think this is why your data is gone. You formatted the partitions, erasing your data.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Daekin:
no no :) that was OK I formatted before 1st boot....after that it was set to 0...

it is not problem of that...

I did format, clean boot, do some settings, reboot, set sd boost to other valuer, boot, all widgets and settings gone, changed sd boost to other value back, reboot and data was there again..

anyway - after formatting, there should be the default widgets ;) and not blank homescreen

can someone confirm a method to install v4.2 on tmobile without partitions? I am thinking of installing the v4.2 with the initrd taken from "hotfix.v2.0.for.zv4.2.DHDv1.3.ARBv1.3". Then apply the audio fix after the first reboot. Would this method work for me? I know one person has tried it but then no one else has claimed to achieve the same results with the same method.

dandiest says he will upload a new version this weekend, the final. maybe I should wait for that.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] men$hoot:
using SD_boost causes that, I don't know why but I think u must flash again w/o sd_boost in config.txt. I used Version 4.0, coz got problems w/ 4.2 like what u had.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] TheBrilliantMistake:
Rosie.APK

The rosie.apk 'patch' (for want of a better expression) to enable landscape Sense only works in part.

It does rotate sense perfectly well, and it does allow you to choose none HTC widgets, however, it dies when you attempt to place a HTC Sense Widget anywhere on your home screen.

I believe it's in function 'widget picker'.

The only solution seems to be to organise your home screen first, THEN deploy rosie.apk.

Also, I tried applying rose.apk via the Update_DL mechanism in the root of SD Card, but this didn't work. Manually applying it worked just fine.

---- If anybody knows this to be untrue, please let me know, I see at least one other has discovered the same issue.

The fact I'm here says I find this to be a great build ;-)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dandiest:
yes, we are preparing the new build now. :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] hakdogan:
Hi kangmas,

To you, thank you for helping BoneMo and jmmmmm friend.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] hakdogan:
Hi guys.

I have a problem since last night. Phone conversations sound robotic, so played mp3 files quickly!

What do you think about it?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] hakdogan:
Unfortunately, over the issue of call audio, I went back to version 3.4
[HD2 Android NAND Development] jmmmmm:
I noticed both these issues on my HD2 as well. I took the rosie from a 3.5 build and I think the widget system is different altogether. Setting up the home screen first is the way to go. Maybe Dandiest will compile a new rosie for us at some point. We may be able to get a good rosie from the other DesireZ thread that is out. I will pop over and ask someone to post it.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] kangmas:
widget

Specifically, what type of htc widget are the problem. After applying the rosie.apk, have put friend stream and htc power widget without any problem. Only if I download anything from market will have terrible lag. (can be more than 5 min). :(

[HD2 Android NAND Development] TheBrilliantMistake:
For me, it's any HTC widget. End up with a black screen (but device isn't frozen)... it's perfectly possible to get back to home screen.

However, if you leave the black screen for a few minutes, the device reboots!

This is EU HD (smaller mem), not USA - just in case it's a factor.

as much as i appreciate your work dandiest, i believe your main post is messy...too much options(for first time install) that should be in second or third post and they are really confusing, especially to someone new trying your builds-my friend BEGGED me to install it for him.
