I always used Gparted - I'm a Linux user from way back so it's my default method.

Can I get a copy of the voice dialer apk?
[Desire Android Development] dk.baxter:
It's on the minisite..

About half way down the page, just above the idrops keyboard..
[Desire Android Development] castafiore:
I did install Voice Dialling Function but I don't see how to use it.

Press and hold "call" doesn't work on my Desire. Is there another shortcut to be used?

Hi all,

first of all, congrats to the developer of a ROM, so far I love it, really, its great!

However, maybe a noob question, how do I do the following:

I mean, I cannot find those interfaces....
[Desire Android Development] junkiepilot:
Loving this ROM! I have been flashing between the numerous HD roms recently but they are all too laggy for my liking. Not like this ROM which is blazing!

Only thing I miss is the slate theme from the DHD Roms. Would love it if someone managed to port this to this rom succesfully. There is a version here (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=843920&highlight=slate) but it does not work correctly and ends up with a force close of sense.

Please someone port it, as I have no clue where to start with this.

Keep up the good work!
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
For the first, SetCpu

For the second, you'd have to see Neo's thread. It is by using the Aura CPU manager. It's a feature of Neo's kernel and not something I developed.
[Desire Android Development] sibere:
Good news. So the bug is an old story now :)

Sent from my HTC Desire with DATA2SD :)
[Desire Android Development] jukyO:
Thanks for answering.
[Desire Android Development] IndicaviA:
:) If you have your bluetooth headset paired with phone and bluetooth (on phone) and headset are on, you have to press and hold "call" button on your headset for a while and then voice dial.

Or there is application icon "voice dial" and after pressing that icon you can dial via speaking to microphone on the phone.

Great ROM!

Has 1.3.2 been made available???
[Desire Android Development] Unknownbomb:
The first boot takes a while?

I partioned to fat32 + ext4, and then flashed Lite Rom in Recovery and it said I should boot it once, but my bootscreen is there for a while already haha... Hope thats normal, how long it takes?

Already 15min now...

I did:

Gparted, Removed all, Created FAT32 + 1GB Ext4. Rebooted into recovery, Flashed Lite ROM .... and now trying to boot which takes 15m already on Splash screen....... So I did nothing with Data2SD yet... ....
[Desire Android Development] kl_arnet:
Starburst needs Ext4 partition.

Swyped via StarBurst Desire.
[Desire Android Development] wolverine_2k:
I just put the memory card in my ubuntu laptop and wiped it to Ext4... got the same crap in the log.

Going to wipe all and try again.
[Desire Android Development] ace55:
same here just installed ,stays on splash screen ,fat32 as primary,and ext4 ...any ideas
[Desire Android Development] wolverine_2k:
Did you do a logcat as per the instructions here:

http://starburstrom.wordpress.com/s...w-to-create-an-error-log-for-troubleshooting/
[Desire Android Development] Unknownbomb:
I did too follow that error log thing, but it wont work.

In CMD screen Its waiting for device all the time...................

And when I cancel it, there is a log.txt created but that only says "

* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *

* daemon started successfully *

Altho it seems that that error page troubleshoot has been written for D2SD installer thing, and I havent done anything with that yet, just only flashed lite rom and trying to boot it but it wont
[Desire Android Development] wolverine_2k:
After the daemon starts successfully; wait about 1 minute before killing the adb in command prompt and in task manager.

The trick is to keep refreshing the directory where the log file is and kill the adb when the log file is above 20-30kb in file size.
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Could you also post the detailed steps of what you've done. The install failed on your device. Copy paste my Installation step-by-step procedure and mention errors you had at each stage/

Actually it should work on ext2/3/4, though an MB aligned ext4 is recommended for best results. If the second partition is ext2/3, it will be converted to ext4 by the data2sd installer zip/
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Actually this can result in case of major corruption in the file system. In some cases, waiting may not yield any log at all, though in all the testing I've done for the rom, this happened only in case of very incompatible kernels and never for any released kernels.

I'll upload the new Standard edition in some hours. Should allow any kernel to be flashed without issues. For those who are having bootloops, kindly see the installation procedure once again and see if you've deviated from any step. Also did your Recovery give any errors at all, like sd-ext couldnt be mounted etc (Or /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 couldnt be mounted/wiped etc)
[Desire Android Development] wolverine_2k:
You know much better than me DZ!

Here's what I did just now and got the same error in the log:

Wiped the phone, the cache, every option I could find to wipe in recovery and formatted the SD-Ext too in recovery.

I installed Starburst 1.3.0 Lite

Started the phone, chose my operator and language and skipped the rest.

Rebooted the phone into recovery

Installed Data2SDInstallerW3_StarBurst.zip from recovery

Rebooted the phone.

Stuck at HTC screen AGAIN.

EDIT: Just tried to wipe Dalvik Cache in recovery and it says:

E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2

(File exists)

Dalvik Cache wiped
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Well, in case of bootloops, you can safely kill the server in 1 min. If you wait longer, it will only log more output from the same loop.
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Yet another victim of the Recovery error.

Could you try reflashing another version of Clockworkmod? Preferably either CWM 2.5.0.7 or CWM Alpharev edition

Or try Amon Ra..

To everyone:

Please do not flash the version of CWM posted by udk. That version is very buggy. If you want the new CWM, you can get the r3 version posted by kali in Cyanogenmod Nightly thread
[Desire Android Development] Unknownbomb:
This just isnt working... :(.

Cant even get an error log *.*. It goes 1kb only with the text deamon succesfully started, nothing more..

Using CW Recovery latest, 3.0 something...

I guess ill try another ROM... I dont see this working fast.
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
If you wanted help, you should've tried to be more detailed in your report.

The minimum bare essentials needed for troubleshooting:

Size of sdcard used

Size and type of partitions used

Software used for partitioning

Recovery installer with version and subversion number

Detailed account of steps you did for the procedure, with output at each step

Step at which major error was noticed

Recovery log as per the minisite

You're welcome to try another Rom. I'd suggest Neophyte Aurax or Leedroid as alternates for features closest to this one. Both have apps2sd.
[Desire Android Development] frodefx:
Looks like a good ROM, i will give it a try today.

I got a 8GB Class 6 sdcard that i will partition for the data2sd.

What is the recommended partitioning sizes?

I read the tutorial on how to do the partition on the starburst blog.

1. First partn: Fat32 Primary (size?) (what will it be used for?)

2. Second Partn: ext4 Primary (size?) (what will it be used for?)

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Question added to StarBurst minisite

For calculating partition size, the important thing to remember is that ext partition shouldnt exceed 2 Gb. So, leave the rest to Fat32 partition. The ext partition will act as an extension of your actual internal memory used to install apks and hold their data. The Fat32 partition is used to hold whatever data you throw at it, your movies/songs/anything else.

So,

1st partition serially: Fat32 (Size=Total size of sdcard minus space you allocate for ext partition)

2nd partition serially: ext4 (Recommended). Or ext2/3 (Not recommended, but will work). Size: Anything less than 2 Gb

Paritioning to be done only with Gparted.
[Desire Android Development] tidschi:
Could you notice that in the first posts of your thread to avoid this?

I'll try your rom in a few minutes. I Hope it is as fast as you tell. :)

I don't care about full roms with every app, I'm interested in a fast stable and clean rom.

Let's see how your rom is. :)
[Desire Android Development] wolverine_2k:
I was using CWM 2.5.0.7

Downloaded 3.0 now and I'm wiping my SD card and re-partitioning it now on my ubuntu. Will let you know how it works this time!
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Since udk is a mod on XDA and probably good at everything else he has done, I cant do that, even if I disagree with him still keeping the links of a buggy recovery version on his thread. I'll add a note on the minisite, telling people to use kali's version, with a link.

Guess Lite edition is the one for you.

I havent posted saying that the Rom is fast. Whatever commendations you see on the thread is posted by the users. :)
[Desire Android Development] frodefx:
Thanks for the quick feedback! Burning gparted to a cd and booting it up on the secondary computer here now :)
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Another thing. Kali's version of CWM 3.0.0.5-r3 as posted here, works perfectly with sd-ext. I'm using it at present. Download link on the Resources page on the minisite
[Desire Android Development] frodefx:
Seems like my memory card reader on the laptop is not supported in gparted, atleast it is not reading the microSDHC card (using the adapter to make it fit in).
[Desire Android Development] castafiore:
Thanks IndicaviA

Great app. I works very well... in french, too : :)
[Desire Android Development] wolverine_2k:
Used CWM 3.0.0.5 and got the same crap.

Formatted SD card, used Gparted to create 6.7GB of Fat32 and 1.2GB of Ext4

Started phone up in CWM 3.0.0.5

Flashed Starburst Lite 1.3.0

Booted up fine, waited for everything to load.

Rebooted into recovery

Flashed Data2SDInstallerW3_StarBurst.zip

Rebooted

Stuck on HTC screen. No point me dumping the log as it's exactly the same issue as before.
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
What I need to know further is whether you did a Wipe just before flashing the rom. Do that and tell me if any errors were shown by the recovery.

Also note that after Data2sd installer flash, you will have to wait for longer, at times upto 5-10 mins

Also, only Kali's CWM 3.0.0.5 R3 works. Other 3.0.0.5 versions are crap
[Desire Android Development] wolverine_2k:
I got mine from udK's clockwork recovery thread...

I got no errors wiping anything in this mod.

I'll wait 10 mins and see what happens then.
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
That version is what I was warning against. If you read the udk thread back about 10-25 pages, you will see the huge number of reports of errors about that version.
[Desire Android Development] wolverine_2k:
ARGHHHH!!!

Ok where can I get a proper recovery mod which is available in .zip update format? The original 2.5.0.7 was from Koush's site. Is that really a dodgy one??
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
No, 2.5.0.7 is actually the best among the versions prior to 3.0. Alpharev 2.5.1.8 is also ok. Kali's 3.0.0.5R3-also good. The link to Kali's version is on the mini site. See Resources section.

For other Koush's version including 2.5.0.7, look here
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
StarBurst 1.3.2 is now available

StarBurst 1.3.2 uploaded! Standard edition Rom is available as zip.

Flashing Standard edition is just like before.

Hotfile link is available now. Will add others as they become available.

So it is of no use to update from 1.3 lite version? I don't flash alternate kernel...

Or is it of use?
[Desire Android Development] anderl78:
respect! Im still on 1.18, will update if download is complete...

Btw... Have used migration tool, works really good!
[Desire Android Development] [deXter]:
You don't need to update if you're not interested in flashing alternative kernels, NZ / Arabic locales and voice dialing over bluetooth. As the changelog says. :P
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Couldnt have worded it better. :)

Always see the complete changelog on minisite and see if you need whatever has been added :)
[Desire Android Development] wallytax:
What is the migration tool for?

Edit: never mind, I noticed it was to replace the old with the new data2sd script...

[Desire Android Development] SkinBobUk:
Just trying this on my mrs's desire.

Tried installing the latest Main Rom (1.3.2) and the phone is stuck in a boot loop.

Was a clean install with everything wiped and made sure i installed from the recommended cwm.

Just tried it again and exactly the same problem :(
[Desire Android Development] seijimaddog:
I was looking for a sense rom with support for Data2SD, and I'm very happy with StarBurst. Clean, very stable, very fast, no problems so far =)

I know that most people don't care about benchmarks scores, but I attached mine, in case someone is looking for it (Quadrant and AnTutu).

StarBurst 1.3.0

HTC Desire o/c to 1190

16GB class 10 microSD

Seens that I finally found a nice rom to keep on my Desire, tired of changing ^^
[Desire Android Development] wallytax:
It really is the nicest t

ROM available! Also got quadrant score 1800-2200. On the standard kernel without oc. Thumbs up for the developer!
[Desire Android Development] frodefx:
droidzone, please add md5 checksums for the Data2Sd installer downloads too.. first download failed on flashing "verification failed", installation aborted.

EDIT: Second download from alternative source on your site, also failed with the same issue.

"Installing from sdcard..."

"Finding update package..."

"Opening update package..."

"Verifying update package..."

"E:Missing file: META-INF/com/google/android/update-script"

"E:Verification failed"

I could open the zip file and locate the update script file, and it opened up fine in notepad.

Any idea how i can pass this?
[Desire Android Development] germaansboefje:
Note: Turn signature verification off in Recovery menu before running the installer script. (If you dont know how, see this)...directly from Starburst Site ;)
[Desire Android Development] frodefx:
Thanks! However, the installation finished, and now the phone is stuck at the boot "htc" screen. will give an attempt to create a log, got the sdk installed.

Here is the result from the adb logging:

View attachment 2010_02_16-adb_log.txt

sdcard was formatted with gparted to aprox 6gb fat32 partition, and a 2gb ext4 partition. (8gb sdcard)

S-ON

Update: Did a full wipe / flashed base rom and the data2sd installer scripts, same issue persists.
[Desire Android Development] tidschi:
So I've flashed the rom now on my device.

Performance is pretty smooth.

Excited about battery life now.
[Desire Android Development] BelgianAtheist:
Okay, a quick question that is not completely clear to me, I'm on 1.2.1 now when I flash the DataMigrationUtility.zip if I then wanna go to 1.3.2 I have to flash the ReInstaller after the main ROM?

(ps. 1.2.1 is already an awesome ROM, this is how the Desire should have been out of the box, low memory is for losers!)
[Desire Android Development] camille93:
Hi,

apparently the Kernel-Bug isn't fixed at 1.3.2 (at least for me). I've tried installing 2 diffrent ones (Neophyte's which was working under 1.1.8 and coutt99's) and it's still resulting in a boot-loop.

cheers

We've beenworking together, Droizone and I, to give you the best of sense and data2sd :)

[Desire Android Development] SkinBobUk:
Is it normal to be stuck at the htc screen for 20 mins after reinstalling?

Got it working once, applied a theme update which resulted in boot loops and now im stuck after reinstalling the rom even after following the instructions to the letter.
[Desire Android Development] anderl78:
Yup, for me too :-(
[Desire Android Development] castafiore:
You're really good, you two. Honest.

This ROM corrects all the bad points of the stock ROM on the HTC Desire.

It's fast, very fast. The amount of memory for the applications is big enough. Using an HTC Desire becomes a real pleasure with this ROM.

I hope that High Tech Computer Corporation will take note of this and ask for your contribution in the future.
[Desire Android Development] wolverine_2k:
Issue above solved.

I put the SD card in my ubuntu laptop and on the ext partition I created the following directories:

app

app-private

dalvik-cache

system

data

And then the phone booted straight in and I have 1gb to play around with.

No idea why those directories weren't being created and I had to manually create them but at least it works now!
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
That's weird because I've definitely checked those two out and it didnt give me any bootloops. It did on the previous version.

Edit: It's likely that if you reinstall these over the version 1.3.0, bootloops will persist. So if you wish to install over 1.3.0, you probably will need a full wipe.
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
You cant "reinstall" after a blotched up theme update. You'd have to wipe and install Rom>Data2sd Installer.

Or Nandroid restore. Dont I warn everyone to take a backup before any theme mod?
[Desire Android Development] wolverine_2k:
Don't think I've ever used a rom in my entire life which has caused me as much grief as this ROM has.

Going back to LeeDroid. A ROM which installs fine first time every time for me.

15 attempts and the same error despite following the instructions perfectly each time is now too much for me.

Just tried the latest 1.3.2 build and again the same BS dalvik-cache loop.
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Sorry that you had so many difficulties. But it's the first time that someone did all the steps right and still had issues. I'm not sure what is different in your device that causes this, but unfortunately one cant always provide instructions remotely and correct issues..
[Desire Android Development] DroidBois:
NICE - I have downloaded the Voice Dial apk.

I was going to flash the voice dial apk - would I be better off flashing the new ROM instead - do I need to do a full factory reset and migration again, or can I just flash the new ROM over my current version (1.3.0) and reinstall data2sd as per other ROM updates?

You area TOTAL legend Sibere!!! Thank you!!

That code you posted above is from this right? http://starburstrom.wordpress.com/s...w-to-create-an-error-log-for-troubleshooting/

I also had issues with some ROM's like Alex-V, when no one else did, so clearly there was something about my phone that was stuffing up. May I suggest, that unless we have donated money to the devs, we don't really have a right to criticise their hard work they give away for free. Critiquing and constructive criticism is a different matter, as is providing meaningful logs and other information to assist with problem diagnosis. I believe you did post the logcat logs above though.

All we can do is ensure we provide accurate and meaningful debugging information.

http://starburstrom.wordpress.com/s...w-to-create-an-error-log-for-troubleshooting/

But thanks for Droidzone for his efforts anyhow - we can't please 'em all! The beauty of XDA is that we can all generally find a ROM that works for us and makes us happy. For me it's Starburst because reliability is critical. I don't give a crap about 'Quadrant scores' - it just needs to work.
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
I need feedback from users who have successfully installed custom kernels with new Rom. Note that it may work only with Full wipe (if you had 1.3.0 previously). If you had a version prior to 1.3.0, iot should work with the normal reinstall procedure
[Desire Android Development] DroidBois:
Um, so if I am on 1.3.0 I need to do a full wipe before upgrade, but not if I am on a version before 1.3.0? I thought it would be the other way around.

BTW thanks for being so available on the forums - you have shown a level of dedication that puts many commercial companies to shame - kudos to you!
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Correct. Some functions added in 1.3.0 were interfering with the patching of custom kernels. So 1.3.0 users need a full wipe. Versions prior to 1.3.0 didnt have this issue, so reinstall should be ok for them

Edit: In my testing I've noticed that installing the kernel after a data2sd install (new version) causes bootloops

If you want to install a custom kernel, do it after a fresh rom install. In next boot, you can install the data2sd installer zip. That obiously means that reinstalls will not be possible if you want custom kernels.
[Desire Android Development] Draciel882:
When I go from a previous version of the ROM and flash the new version and I want to flash a theme as well, do I flash the data2sd reinstaller first or the theme?
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
Actually I cant give a definite answer. Different theme devs write different scripts for theme installion. If you dont wipe anything for theme installation, and if the updater-script/update-script of theme doesnt interfere with dalvik-cache/cache, flashing the theme at any time should work. But if the theme install script interferes with these folders/partitions, there may be issues like bootloops. Flashing the theme immediately after a Rom install (before data2sd installer/reinstaller) should normally work best. Flashing the theme after everything is completed (after a reboot after data2sd installer/reinstaller) should also 'normall' work
[Desire Android Development] Draciel882:
Alright, well most of the themes require you to wipe the dalvik-cache after flashing the theme. Does that change anything?
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
It could, wiping dalvik-cache on the data2sd installation have been shown to occasionally cause bootloops. So I dont recommend a wipe, though they do. Honestly, I dont see why a dalvik-cache wipe is needed for any theme install.
[Desire Android Development] elusivecriminal:
I report that starburst worked perfectly on my desire (1gb ext3). Super stable and very fast! Thanks very very much for this great rom!

It would be perfect if power control in notification bar was provided as a flashable zip since the one from carbon ara theme changes far too many things along with the bar and I havent found other alternative..

Any suggestions?

Ps: I tried also a glass theme that I found on xda but the phone stuck in htc screen.
[Desire Android Development] Droidzone:
I'm not into theming/modding, which is why I provide the Rom in its clean original sense Rom without even desktop background mods like Lee/Aurax. You'll have to depend on theme devs for that. See the PCW bar zip which provides only the power control bar without the theme. There's also another thread on XDA which has the bar alone
[Desire Android Development] elusivecriminal:
Unfortunately i tried this zip from carbon ara that is supposed to have only the bar but it changed a banch of things and didnt like it very much. I just asked in case there is a lighter theme with the bar seperately
