The very first version of StarBurst did use Leedroid 2.3 kernel with Battfix. I had to change it to the older 2.2 kernel because of complaints that the phone would restart in car chanrging mode.
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
I dont understand what you mean by "car mode bug"
[Desire Android Development] anderl78:
Hi! Just trying neophytex kernel (standard-version) and have to say, a really good one! Till now stable and fast... battery-consumption seems to be good too - in combination with battfix worth a try.
[Desire Android Development] fisha21:
Thanks for the replies - my mistake!
[Desire Android Development] sibere:
FYI my kernel with my battfix doesn't suffer from the batt drop when unplugged and apparently not from the car bug too (never tried myself tho)

Sent from my HTC Desire with DATA2SD :)
[Desire Android Development] anderl78:
Little off topic, but could you provide us a few specs of your kernel, the one which is on the minisite...? Have read in your thread some time ago, but could not remind exactly... ;-) there were some versions, if i remember right... :-)

Extremely interesting for me are the differences in the implementation of the battfixes...
[Desire Android Development] sibere:
Apart from a few other patches (like GPU+, oc/uv, etc) and fixes, my battfix changes the default HTC to a trickle charge mode. (see my signature for link)
[Desire Android Development] jamesbrampton:
I too have this car bug and would love to have it removed from the ROM
[Desire Android Development] jamesbrampton:
The phone automatically goes into car mode (I have done some research and its a hardware fault) with sense when 2 of the USB pins are shorted out it goes into this mode meaning when receiving calls it goes to loudspeaker automatically I have had this for a month or so and its a real pain and I too do not want to send my phone back for repairs but I do not think I have any other options but to maybe flash a non sense rom
[Desire Android Development] chrisvr4:
Hi.

Many thanks for the rom ;) all seems good so far ::

Has anyone got the latest carbon ara theme working on this rom ? I just flashed V2.5.1 and getting stuck on boot ? yep a dalvic was wiped before flash ;)
[Desire Android Development] jamesbrampton:
Market has just been updated OTA and now I am having problems updating apps and downloading them...anyone else? Oh I have done all the cache wipes etc, oh, flashed the latest ROM with beta DATA2SD,

What a master piece :-)
[Desire Android Development] anderl78:
Thanks! :-)
[Desire Android Development] anderl78:
Here it works with new market and latest beta data2sd. Perhaps you have the known problem with dalvik-cache fills up your internal memory?!
[Desire Android Development] fisha21:
Thanks for the tip. Was using your kernel with Leedroid, was just waiting for the kernel flashing issue to be fixed with the beta data2SD. When are you going to start accepting donations?

Have been using Carbon Ara (both stock, and my own modified version) with no problems.
[Desire Android Development] chrisvr4:
What version of carbon ara are you running with this latest rom ? I asked in the theme thread and had this reply >>

Hi, you are the second person who have problem with this ROM and my theme...perhaps it's the last version of StarBurst who have this incompatibility because before my theme work good (test by myself).

Have been using Carbon Ara (both stock, and my own modified version) with no problems.[/QUOTE]
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
When was this Market released? Would anybody care to share the Vending.apk?

By the way, the new Titanium has an option of clearing dalvik-cache. Try this too.
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
[/QUOTE]

Maybe they should try it again.. The ROM framework hasnt been modified at all..So themes which used to work should still work. Try wihout a wipe
[Desire Android Development] anderl78:
Yupp, on the way... http://db.tt/mFSRqb0 release was this days. Had a themed 2.3.2 , now I have this 2.3.3 version....
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Thanks..How do you track the Market updates? Would like to keep an eye on them..

Edit: Scratch that. You probably got it updated on your device. I just noticed that mine had been updated automatically too. I will add it to the upcoming Lite release.
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Try an adb push. If it still doesnt work, replace the Vending.apk from the Rom and flash it.
[Desire Android Development] snq-:
there is a more recent version: 2.3-chgrmod4 properly fixes the chargedrop issue and doesn't interfere with car kits. all issues previously reported (car kit, led feedback, screen wakes, lockscreen labels on hd roms) are gone. it is a safe upgrade path from 2.2f
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Thank you.. Will flash it and try it out for a week..

If other people too can test it, try this out, and tell me..We could add it to StarBurst.

Specifically we would like to see the battery performance and Quadrant scores..

Another one to be tested out is Sibere's battfix kernel
[Desire Android Development] Fieser-Kardinal:
I've just flashed snq's 2.3-chgrmod4 kernel, will give feedback!
[Desire Android Development] dheena:
Can i flash it without wipe this?
[Desire Android Development] huzi7868:
hi droidzone off the topic question what phone u thinking of getting next coz my contracts ending soon and i love ya roms
[Desire Android Development] Fieser-Kardinal:
Yes, just flash it via Recovery and you're good.
[Desire Android Development] dheena:
Thanks its all fine.
[Desire Android Development] jamesbrampton:
Thanks, it is working this morning...
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Wont be getting anything soon.. Phones are very costly over here. No contract :(
[Desire Android Development] fredfox_uk:
@droidzone - Thanks for your work on this ROM. I'm really liking it. Very stable, and quick and everything I need to use works fine.

Just made a donation to you.
[Desire Android Development] sibere:
If I lose my job maybe ;)

Droidzone flashed my kernel on his phone and he didn't have the bootloop issue :D
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Yup..No issues at all. :)

But anyway, now kernel flashing issues shouldnt remain with the newly uploaded scripts-Stable or Beta. All kernels should work fine. Tried almost every Sense kernel out there.

But..I did have a system freeze with the file snq posted. But it doesnt seem to be an issue with the kernel, only with the method of flashing. Once I extracted the kernel and reflashed it in my own zip file, it worked fine.

Thank you! We're glad. :)
[Desire Android Development] peterme58:
Can i use the new beta wf5

script if i have the tepics rom with data2sd and migration data flashed; will i have some improvement over the stability, i didnt face any problem with kernel update... thank you for your hard work!
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
There are no stability issues with the Rom. Whatever code revisions made have been done to the data2sd script, not the Rom. If you're using other Roms, you should follow the steps in Sibere's thread. There will be a lot of missing files otherwise, which have been integrated into StarBurst. So use the steps/flashable zip from Sibere's thread. If you're on aosp, the zip on StarBurst might work.
[Desire Android Development] peterme58:
I am using starburst since 1.1.8 the lite versions, becouse i like the stock sense but in the late gmail update in 1.30 with wf5script i was facing problem with the update, so i am trying tepics rom with the standard data2sd script and then the migration flash to have dalvic to nand thats why i asked, i am waiting your new lite stock starburst...thank for the quick reply!
[Desire Android Development] fisha21:
;) Well, your continued efforts are much appreciated!

Using your kernel now, nice to see a full battery when I unplug the charger...
[Desire Android Development] shankly1985:
droidzone

just finished installing this rom and its superb m8 well done thanks :)

Just one question about updating, am I right that if your bring out a update I just install with out wipe and the reinstall the zip installer?
[Desire Android Development] kamarad:
Quadrant scores

Hallo droidzone,

I have the following situation:

After a full wipe I installed 1.3.3.1 with "Data2SDInstallerv1.1_tiny.zip" script and in Quadrant I have aprox. 1200 points. After that I installed again (full wipe again) 1.3.3.1 but this time with the "Data2SDInstallerW3_StarBurst.zip" script and I have aprox. 2000 points in Quadrant. Can you tell me why is this difference between the two scripts in the same conditions?

My card is a 8GB Sandisk class 2 (with 1.5GB EXT4 partition) and I use Quadrant Standard 1.1.7.

Thank you.
[Desire Android Development] sibere:
Because the W3 script has different mount options which delays writing and cache flush to the SD card. It also uses NAND to store dalvik-cache and settings. Both have a journal now so they're safe anyway.
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Bug corrected in Data2sd code

Tiny bugs in Data2sd code have been detected and corrected. Both stable and beta code have had revisions. If installing for the first time, use the new code. Reinstalls shouldnt have any issues even with old code.
[Desire Android Development] EraqEE:
Will I be able to read Arabic websites on this Rom?

I can see that it supports an Arabic User Interface, which I have no interest in.

I receive e-mails in Arabic sometimes and the characters aren't displayed properly so I'd like to know if this Rom has Arabic fonts installed.
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
No. Try Al-Maisan
[Desire Android Development] Iceberger:
Upgrade to tiny Data2SD v1.2

In my last installation of 1.3.3.1 i used Data2SDInstallerv1.1_tiny.zip.

Is it possible to boot into recovery and install Data2SD_Re_Installerv1.2_tiny.zip over it?

Or should i have to reinstall 1.3.3.1 first?
[Desire Android Development] omoralajr:
Never mind. I found my mistake. I completely missed the section that said the phone had to be S-Off. I've installed AlphaRev and chose to use ClockWorkMod AlphaRev version during the AlphaRev install.

All is well . . . any chance on making a Data2Ext version? Still unclear on this. Seems like there are people on both sides of the fense . . . Data2SD vs Data2Ext. Thoughts?
[Desire Android Development] omoralajr:
I guess I should have included the earlier post I was referring to . . .

[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
The bug Sibere found was in the line which creates the ext4 partition, so for best performance it would be good to do a install fom scratch.

Steps:

Backup with Titanium: Backup user apps and system data

Wipe data/Factory reset from Recovery

Install ROM

Reboot to recovery and install the Data2sd installer

Reboot and Titanium restore: Restore missing apps+all system data

Both scripts move data to ext partition. I prefer Sibere's scripts since I have been using it personally since last November and find it robust, and understand his code. I wont be adding other implementations. For a comparison though, you'd have to ask Sibere in his Data2sd thread.

By the way, phone doesnt have to be S-OFF for Data2sd
[Desire Android Development] omoralajr:
Ok, not completely sure why, but my phone was picky. My phone would not respond and get stuck before using s-off. I waited 3 hours for data2sd to configure.

Anyway, I'll try the beta installer script to see if speed improves. I'll post my results.
[Desire Android Development] STANNY08:
Sorry, i thought it was a well known bug. A lot of people seem to be having the issue!

Basicially, when i turn the handset on it almost immediately goes into car mode. I bring down the notifications bar and click it to cancel car mode, but although it appears to cancel it, the handset still activates loudspeaker for all incoming and outgoing calls, also when a headset is plugged it the media volume cant be changed. From what ive read it is caused by a short across 2 pins on the usb connector or on the motherboard. Apparently the feature is there for the official HTC car dock, which will activate the mode once connected to the handset.

If this mode can be removed from roms that would be ideal, i think. But a side from actually flashing various rom's my ability and knowledge is pretty limited! So just thought id ask here as many of you would know if this is possible.
[Desire Android Development] Psyco-Man:
changing SD Card

Hi there,

First of all, fantastic and best Rom ever ;)

Today i ordered a 16GB micro SDHC Class 10 card to replace it with my working 8GB Class 6 with 1GB ext4. I ve about 4 more days to receive my card so i want to ask and get all infos before i start "upgrading".

Can anyone tell me what exactly to do to be back on StarBurst ?

Should i better Backup with Titanium (app+data) and then do an install from scratch like posted before ?

Hope you can give me a tip. i think many of you changed there micro SDHC Card to a 16GB with a working config before on the "old" card.

Pls tell me how you got it running.

Is there a known issue if i would raise on the 16GB Card the ext4 partition to 2GB instead of now used 1GB ?

Thanks for your help

Greets
[Desire Android Development] IndicaviA:
Yes, I think that would be good. Just partition your new SD card as needed and make TB from previous StarBurst. Then copy backup to your new SD, install rom from scratch and restore. All should work ok. Or second way is to make a nandroid of your working StarBurst system and flash from that on your new SD.
[Desire Android Development] craig1965:
I know this is slightly off topic last weekend I tried Adam_g's gingerbread asop Rom

Went back to starburst now if I wipe data factory reset I get an android boot screen and won't go any further

All I can do is pull the battery and do a fresh install but as soon as I factory reset again and super user isn't working correctly takes about 10 + allows for every app but still doesn't remember preferences

Do I need to un root and start again

Thanks in advance
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
If you switch between incompatible Roms, you will need full wipe and start over. The best method to try out of course is to create Nandroid backups and then wipe completely and proceed. That's how I test out various Roms for compatibility support for data2sd. I always come back to my StarBurst copy. Nandroid even creates an ext4 fs.

I dont get this part. After you do a fresh install, why are you doing a factory reset? A factory reset erases everything including the ext file system. There's no way the system would start again properly. But because /boot and /system is left untouched, it tries to start and aborts.

Check if you have the ext4 fs. If not, recreate it and start over. Next time make a working Nandroid backup before you try out Roms.
[Desire Android Development] anderl78:
Hi droidzone!

What do you think about this security patch?
[Desire Android Development] zongamin:
What did I do wrong?

Hi - fantastic ROM - perfect for what I need.

However, last night I had my first problem with it - I wonder if anyone can shed any light onto it.

Starburst 1.3.2

Data2SD 0.7

Sys App Remover

1.5GB EXT 3

All running ok until

- I booted into recovery

- Backup and Restore

- Backup

- Process completed - went to reboot phone.....

- Phone booted, but with error messages flashing up that none of the apk's could be found. It then went into the initial setup screen - Choose language etc.

- At this point i tried another reboot - same problem

- Tried a third time - same again

So I removed my SD, copied data manually to PC, then reinserted

- Booted to recovery

- Restored from the backup I made before the crash (I had not wiped anything at this point)

- Restore completed but on reboot same errors, although it did not go into initial setup screens this time

- In the end I performed a full wipe, reflash and have manually restored apps and data - everything ok, apart from a few games reset to start.

Questions

- Any ideas what went wrong?

- Should I use Titanium to backup instead of clockwork recovery?

- Should I have done a full wipe, reflash, apply D2SD and THEN try to restore from backup?

Any help with these appreciated, and thanks again for this amazing Rom.
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Interesting..I'll add the patch to my Roms. Thanks.

Seems like an error with CWM. It's pure guesswork.

At this point, the best way is to recreate everything using the latest uploaded zips.

But CWM backups are fine. Never had problems with them. Titanium backup restores are fine with the "restore missing apps + all system data option" done on the same Rom. Never use it between different roms, esp not b/w aosp and Sense.
[Desire Android Development] iocar:
i don't know if this is just me, but i am having lots of bugs, such as when adding a "place" to weather, it crashes.

another bug is when i unlock the phone, a pop-up says "com.google.services (something like that) has crashed and please report"

any help is appreciated thanks
[Desire Android Development] craig1965:
Hi thanks for the reply

I have a working nandroid back up but super user seems corrupted if you do a titanium backup of full system data you end up pushing allow about 400 times

That's why I did a full wipe but every time you do I get stuck in this android boot screen and have to do a battery pull

The nandroid will reload after but I want to clear this off I may try flashing a ruu see if clears then start again
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
I will need something more descriptive..

Could you explain what you do step by step? Like: I wiped data from recovery, then I installed this zip etc..

If you are not even able to flash the main Rom, it isnt a Rom issue. There's something else, either a corrupt recovery or other partition. If you're S-OFF, you can reflash another recovery and then try again
[Desire Android Development] craig1965:
2 days ago I flashed amon ra to try to cure it as clockwork mod was causing the problem

I'm S-on so can't do that

All I do from recovery is do a full wipe then flash the zip plus data2sd it will load fine but do a factory reset and its back again
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Well, a factory reset does mean wiping and corrupting the /data partition used by data2sd. Why are you doing a reset after you install everything?
[Desire Android Development] craig1965:
The reason I'm doing a reset is to cure the superuser permissions I couldn't think of another way round it
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
I dont know how to solve your Superuser permissions problem. Maybe as you suggested, you should try running an RUU and then rerooting with latest Unrevoked. Seems like a corrupt rooting process.
[Desire Android Development] IndicaviA:
Droidzone, I want to ask you, if the PCW for Carbon Ara can be flashed to base Starburst rom WITHOUT flashing Carbon Ara theme ? (to have Starburst with PCW)

Thanks for info.
[Desire Android Development] whips:
Droidzone, please forgive me if this has been discussed before, I installed this ROM 2 days ago for the first time when I got my new 16GB class 4 SD. I made a ext4 of 1.5GB and everything installed and seemed to be running fine. However since a few hours ago I cannot install any apps, whether through market of through file manager. I keep getting a message saying "pakage file is invalid". This happens regardless of whichever app I'm attempting to install. Does anyone else have this problem and is there a fix for it?
[Desire Android Development] sibere:
Did you install the beta version of data2sd or the stable one?

If you installed beta, it's a "known" issue if you install a lot of apps.

Solution:

Revert to stable version.
[Desire Android Development] IndicaviA:
It is known issue for "some" users if you are using any version of Beta W script of Data2SD. For som of us the dalvik cache fill up quickly and then is not possible to install anything due to full space in nand. Only solution is to make Titanium Backup, flash the rom again and use stable version of Data2SD (now 1.2 tiny). Then you will be able to install as much apps as your ext4 partition can handle.

/Edit: oops, Sibere was little bit faster... :)
[Desire Android Development] whips:
:D I was using beta version for sure, never knew about this issue, can I move from beta to stable by just flashing the reinstaller for stable, or do I need to wipe and flash the whole ROM again?
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Currently no..

You will have to follow the Titanium backup way..Scan the last couple of pages..Already mentioned the method
[Desire Android Development] sibere:
Hum I think that the procedure has been described already by droidzone some pages ago.

I'd say search for it on this thread you should get a detailed answer.

edit: Owned by droidzone :D
[Desire Android Development] pranavd1980:
Hey Thanks for the nice ROM....

i tried this 1st time today and all went nice for ROM.....

After rebooting it and installation of Data2SD script, Freez on boot logo....Need your help here as its still at same stage.....

Details are as under;

4GB card class 2

512MB Partition with help of ROM Manager

ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.0.7

S-On

Did exactly as you mantioned for 1st Use of ROM @ minisite

Starburst_1.3.3.1, data2SDInstaller1.2_tiny

It just freezed up and i really don't know how to get log.....

Please help needed urgently.....
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
You followed everything except for the part where you partitioned with Rom Manager. Repartition your card with Gparted. Follow the "step-by-step instructions for newbies" exactly
[Desire Android Development] pranavd1980:
Thanks for lightning quick reply.....

will do it as you said but, what to do with freezed screen......

Device is not booting up.....Waht Next....Please...........
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Pull the battery, replace it and get to recovery. Then after partitioning, you can do everything else from recovery. Once you repartition and install the rom, everything will be fine. Do "everything" from alpha. :)
[Desire Android Development] pranavd1980:
Thanks again...but its impossible to download 120MB of Gparted software with TATA USB stick.....

Is there anyway to boot the phone and use it for night.....Will do the rest tomorrow......
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Recovery>Wipe data/Factory reset>Install StarBurst ROM>Reboot

You should now have a working stock Rom. You can flash data2sd installer tomorrow after partitioning
[Desire Android Development] pranavd1980:
Thanks again....

I have few things to ask, hope you don't mind......

Want to have S-OFF too tomorrow...What to do 1st....your ROM or S-OFF......?

I had PMed you earlier this week for my reboot issue....please try to see that and reply if possible with you.......

Thanks again.....
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
See mini site for instructions about S-Off. You can post your issue here. Someone will get to it if you post full details of the issue in the format described on my site. I've disabled all PMs except those from Sibere and Rom devs..

cocerning Battery drops - phone shuts down (safely!) - reboot not possible

I'm soory to tell you, that it happened again - an you could imagine that I'm not amused :(

My last nandroid backup was from 3 days ago :(

I even downloaded the Rom again (bad zip file) and flashed it again - same result this time: I see my desire in a boot loop tellig me "quietly brilliant" all over again.

I would be happy to give you further data (log files etc.) but I have to switch ROMs again because I need a reliable ROM and a battery loss is possible all the time. (with same configurations/installations I did not have thise issues before in other ROMs I tried)
