Thank you for very valuable info TeamPCB.

I have been actually bit busy with my work and I did not have time to compile/install this yet.

All the needed tools & toolchain are compiled and ready , even pngcrush (1.7.10) can be found straight from gentoo portage :D

Hi adam

found a little bug.

when changing config in wifi sleep policy to any value, reverting it to original value it wont work as expected and in wont sleep when screen is off.
[Desire Android Development] Matty Matt:
Hey Adam, I was having trouble removing the EXT3 partition on my SD card after flashing Oxygen Hboot when trying Oxygen 2.1.2 so I'm using this ROM instead and it's great! Like a tin of Sainsbury's Baked beans it's not all bells and whistles but it does what it says on the tin, even if it's not to everyone's liking [/best-comparison-between-food-and-custom-ROMS] ;)
[Desire Android Development] mattman83:
Removing ext3 is easy with a proper partition manager. I killed mine just this morning with minitool partition wizard and all painfree.

Stick with devnull all the same though, its nice over here ;)

M.
[Desire Android Development] nickislauw:
o pros isthat with minitoo, you dont have to format your sd:D:D

And with amon ra etc, it formats your sd wich is annoying. so i love minitool partition

anyone managed to get coutts kernel 2.6.38 and a working camera with this rom?
[Desire Android Development] :
Lol. Why would you want to do a silly thing like that?
[Desire Android Development] dannylill1981:
camera works fine if you dont go messing about with other kernels, theres no reason to use coutts, the thalamus kernel works perfectly
[Desire Android Development] remorema:
LOL. I I know it sounds silly. apart of having more scaling options and higher clock speeds I really dont see any diferences.

But I tested it and really like the resposiveness of the phone(not that your kernell isnt fast). but this rom with that kernell and launcher pro its blazing fast.
[Desire Android Development] :
The 38 kernel is measurably worse for both latency and throughput than the 35 kernel. So I can't see how it can be faster or more responsive.

I sense an element of placebo effect occurring here.
[Desire Android Development] python08:
I don't understand why you're so wicked. Even if you're very proud of your work, it would be kind not to criticize the work of others.
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
I have not made a comment regarding coutts kernels before now, whilst I would like to remain impartial to this, you only have to look at his previous git commits to see why some of his works are really bad.

Deleting hundreds of lines of code and adding ifdefs is not the right way to go to make something compatible, just because it works it doesn't make it good.

I refer to the following for example,

http://git.couttstech.com/?p=coutts...ff;h=a98d87b373de21577607afa30a7e8ed0b2ff9a1b

This is just wrong on so many levels.

Not only this but look at how his git comments are so vague 'Various fixes', no description, nothing, nada, fixes should be separated and fully documented to help users & developers alike, how is this helpful to anybody?
[Desire Android Development] :
And that is probably one of the better commits there. There are ones much more scary than that, with much bigger wtf value.

Anyone can copy and paste code and keep trying the compile until it builds, but just because it builds, it doesn't mean that it's going to work as intended. It's not development and the kernel certainly isn't the place to be 'developing' in that style, because a small change can cause subtle issues which could end up being catastrophic.
[Desire Android Development] :
Whilst I am on the subject of kernels...

Kernels 2.6.35.13_r3 / 2.6.35.13_r3-custom are available here, fixes an issue with clock skew.

Changelog here.
[Desire Android Development] python08:
You're probably right (I didn't follow coutts kernel progress since I don't have my Desire anymore). But even if it's true, it's not a reason not to be kind (: By the way, congratulations for your fantastic work (just flashed Oxygen on the Desire of a friend and it's just fantastic).
[Desire Android Development] remorema:
you're probably right! but it felt pretty damn fast.

anyway! I'll keep your 35.

and thinking about that its time to flash r3 ;)

just to be fair with you guys work. once I tested oxygen/devnull other roms just seemed useless. this rom is f... amazing

tested cyanogen just to check the final builds but no way I'll ever use another rom

hey adam just let me know whats your next phone(not that I'm gonna change mine anytime soon) cause I'll want to stick with your roms in future ;)
[Desire Android Development] leegil:
There are a few dual-core coming (Optimus X2, HTC sensation) with the quad-core at the end of the year.

Personally I will wait for Android Ice Cream Sandwich with Google next phone.

Native Google/Devnull customisation would be awesome.

Is there anyway to get FM working? I tried the CM7, stock, Miui rom FM but not working. Please anyone help me. Am I missing anything to install, any prerequisite?
[Desire Android Development] mattman83:
FM needs framework changes, so its not going to run on devnull. I suggest you try oxygen rom if you need FM.

M.
[Desire Android Development] kavena78:
FM working

Is there anyway to get the FMRadio working? I have tried the Stock, Oxygen, CM7 ROms FMRadio but no luck, on run it crashing. Pls help
[Desire Android Development] Caelte:
Use oxygens issue tracker if you have problems (view at adams signature).
[Desire Android Development] mattman83:
SERIOUSLY???

I replied to your last post not half an hour ago...you know, the post immediately after your original post, and immediately before you spamming the thread with it a 2nd time. The answer is a big fat NO IT WILL NOT WORK.

Now I see why thalamus sometimes doesn't come across that "nice".... sick of stupid people.

M.
[Desire Android Development] FloHimself:
Bug:

Menu > Background > Backgrounds > Set wallpaper:

Because the wallpapers are removed from Launcher2, it FCs on pressing "Set wallpaper".

Fix:

This option doesn't make any sense without wallpapers, but I don't want to dig deeper in Launcher2. So a very simple fix is attached, that at least stops the FC.
[Desire Android Development] jazzk:
Does this mean that jyxent's call delay reducing fix has been commited to the devnull source?

If so, I gotta figure out how to compile/build from source and try it out :)
[Desire Android Development] 4ftermath:
Does this ROM have Oxygen Settings / Status Bar toggles?
[Desire Android Development] balthor80:
Oxygen

Settings ...

And no status bar toggles... go to oxygen for that

I'm trying to get a devnull with fr locale & dictionarie but, for the dict., i make a "raw-fr"

folder in "vendor/devnull/overlay/packages/inputmethods/LatinIME/java/res" and into I put the main.dict from raw-fr (here: http://gitweb.oxygen.im/?p=oxygen/ve...va/res;hb=HEAD)

But I only have the eng dictionarie :(
[Desire Android Development] :
Do you have working eyes?

The reason why I ask is because it is clear that you didn't see the first post in this thread.
[Desire Android Development] meljuga:
This is my first ever installed custom ROM and I have to tell you how everything works superb! It is so much better than than HTC Sense. From now on I will always go with "clean" Android. Thank you!

I have been using it for two days now and dind't have any issues whatsoever.

One quick question: Don't know if it's Gingerberad feature, but when I browse through "manage application", I see that it is possible to move (all)apps I previously wasn't able to move to SD. For example adobe flash player. What's the deal with that?
[Desire Android Development] schiznik:

[Desire Android Development] kroogar:
This maybe a stupid question but the discussion has been going back and forth: "works for me"/"use this hack"/"use this app"... but: Is the delay when answering the phone supposed to be fixed in 1.0.3? The reason I ask is o/c that I seem to be experience it. And if it's not fixed is there an outlook as to when/if it will be? Or is there a recommended workaround by Adam and/or thalamus?

I have the CDP (Call Delay Patch) app installed but it doesn't seem to do the job - not always at least.

Thanks in advance guys - sorry if I missed an obvious answer earlier in the thread...

./kroogar
[Desire Android Development] schiznik:
Nope, the call-delay work around as posted previously isnt in a released v of DevNull (yet)

be patient, it will come...
[Desire Android Development] kroogar:
Thanks schiznik! I've used DevNull since the initial release so I don't mind waiting a bit more :-)
[Desire Android Development] meljuga:
Is it wise to move any app to SD even if it's not ment to be moved?

Thank you
[Desire Android Development] mattman83:
I think you answered your own question. If an app does not have the option to move to SD then it's either got a terribly lazy dev or it causes problems with the application (widgets for eg should never be moved).

M.
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
...or anything you want to work on boot/starts on boot, if moved to SD do not work well. Also Launchers....

Just have to employ a bit of common sense. Does it pro-actively monitor anything? provide notifications? essential to everyday operation of the phone? start on boot? sit on the homescreen? Yes? Don't move it :)

[Desire Android Development] amitabhishek:
Loved This ROM but was forced to abandon because "wifi tether for root user" app never to worked on this ROM. I have an iPad - wifi and I need a 3G hotspotting application.

Currently using RC mix ROM (because Sense UI offers 3G hotspotting out of the box) though the ROM is good with eye candy and all but it's sluggish & cannot be compared with /Dev/Null. I wish there is any other way or an app to tether my 3G connection through wifi.
[Desire Android Development] mattman83:
Errr... use the hotspot feature built into the rom?

M.
[Desire Android Development] amitabhishek:
^^ How? Where? When?

I have no freaking idea if it is in AOSP. You mean to say wifi tether is inherent in Android? Kindly elaborate? I will roll back right away.
[Desire Android Development] mattman83:
Settings -> Wireless & Networks -> Tethering & Portable Hotspot.

Has been in Android since froyo, though some networks remove it from their custom builds.

M.
[Desire Android Development] amitabhishek:
Thanks! Thanks! Thanks! I go to those settings every day and I am amazed I haven't seen it. I bloody don't believe this!!!

Test Build

New test build. Info on bugs fixed here.

New bugs in the tracker please.

http://thalamus.ineige.org/misc/update-devnull-test-signed.zip
[Desire Android Development] skeptic1007:
I have a small problem. I am using DevNull after having used Oxygen. With DevNull the battery statistics as provided by the system settings option is wrong: the time indicated since the last time the battery was charged is much smaller than the real duration. I have wiped battery stats to no avail.

Please point me in the right direction. Thank you.
[Desire Android Development] :
Well...as it's the same Settings.apk as Oxygen...I find it unlikely that there is a bug.

The battery stats are notoriously inaccurate anyway, I wouldn't stake my life on what they say, that is for sure.
[Desire Android Development] remorema:
please make an incremental version of next update :rolleyes:
[Desire Android Development] mattman83:
Would you like them to walk your dog for you too? Seriously - just flash the new rom over the old one....

M.
[Desire Android Development] :
I'm not sure who you think you are rolling your eyes at...but that attitude doesn't sit well with me.

If it was incremental you would *still* have to go into recovery to flash it, so it makes no difference.

Request declined.
[Desire Android Development] :
Test Build

http://thalamus.ineige.org/misc/update-devnull-test-signed.zip

Fixes autobrightness (properly).

Implements a 5 second delay for decreases to smooth over any small changes and stop an increase/decrease/increase situation when there is only small changes in light levels.
[Desire Android Development] remorema:
and delete all modifications I've done. sure smartass! You really need to update your punchlines

It's a bloody icon dude... chillout!

adam himself said he could do incremental

I dont really matter to go into recovery and flash it. I just dont see the point of overwriting full system, when it could be done just by overwriting a handfull of files.
[Desire Android Development] :
If you have changed *anything* in system, an incremental update will not work, because all files are checked before they are patched.

So if you have modified things, which by the sounds of it, you have, an incremental update won't work for you anyway.
[Desire Android Development] :
Kernel Release

New kernel release.

Changelog: http://thalamus.ineige.org/kernels/2.6.35/CHANGELOG

Get it from here: http://thalamus.ineige.org/kernels/2.6.35/

Most people will want the one that is in that folder I linked to.

If you have a CDMA device, you will want the one in the bravoc folder.

If you want the call recording patch, AUFS2, swap or any obscure filesystems you want the one in the custom folder.

Bugs to the email address in the changelog please, not on here.
[Desire Android Development] remorema:
I'll just overwrite new files into my own update.zip before flashing then.

tks for your time and keep up the good work with the kernell
[Desire Android Development] buzzboy:
New test build running fine, brightness seems stable, performance great as ever.

Many thanks.
[Desire Android Development] :
An incremental update uses bspatch binary patches and patches the existing files, it doesn't overwrite with new files.
[Desire Android Development] pilgrim011:
Delete please.
[Desire Android Development] vnvman:
Wow...i don' know maybe it's just placebo, but it really feels like this update brought like a big boost in terms of smoothness, top job.
[Desire Android Development] :
No, I don't think it is placebo, interactivity definitely seems better.

There was a reported ARM interactivity regression in 2.6.37-rc3 which got committed into the scheduler code in the 2.6.35.12 update.

I noticed a post to the LKML about it and pulled the patches from mainline.

Also, there was a minor error in the scheduling logic which was resolved when I rebased the android msm tree with the mainline stable tree. Basically something had been fixed twice, but in slightly different ways and I hadn't noticed it when applying the incremental stable patches.
[Desire Android Development] MisterMooth:
Anyone notice that the vibration/haptic feedback in this rom (and Oxygen) is more intense than other AOSP Gingerbread roms? You can tell when you use the default keyboard. I'm wondering if this is intentional.

Excellent rom either way.
[Desire Android Development] remorema:
sure! but since you guys wont release incremental I'll grab 1.0.4 full update and edit it before flashing. that way I can update without having to full wipe and by so loosing my modifications (such as boot animation, deleted and added apk's, and a couple of mods).

New kernell rocks! running smooth
[Desire Android Development] mattman83:
Yeah, shame on them for not doing it... I mean... you're the only person I ever recall asking for it - why shouldn't they submit to your whim?

Booooo Hisssssss Thalamus :p

[Desire Android Development] MisterMooth:
Why doesn't Spare Parts work in this rom?

I know it's a personal rom but I just find it a bit annoying that I can't look at what could be potentially waking my phone from sleep.
[Desire Android Development] remorema:
I dont remeber asking you anything. stay in your corner. or are you just aiming to a high post count?

I asked, they declined, end of story.

dont you have anything usefull to do instead of spamming adam's threads?
[Desire Android Development] failax:
Call delay is still present?
[Desire Android Development] :
It isn't if you use my test build which is back a couple of pages...
[Desire Android Development] :
Oh right, ok, I'll fix that *right away* because you find it annoying.

You say you know it's a personal ROM, which suggests you read the first post, yet you still post a silly complaint.

Some people....
[Desire Android Development] schiznik:
Spare parts works for me... the battery stats don't as they were changed between froyo and gb.

Shame the previous poster didn't say what wasn't working......
[Desire Android Development] yeti.p:
There's also Spare Parts+ on the market and this one works flawless with GB
[Desire Android Development] :
It works for me too...and they fixed the battery stats in the master branch. ;)
[Desire Android Development] MisterMooth:
Oh okay, because I asked you to fix it, not just ask why it wasn't working.

Some people...
[Desire Android Development] :
Well, you are the one who posted a superfluous, pointless complaint about a personal ROM and acknowledged that it was a personal ROM in the very same post. Makes you look a little silly really.
[Desire Android Development] MisterMooth:
I never posted a complaint. I merely asked a question.
[Desire Android Development] majo_scigo:
Radio

I am looking to install the DevNull as I had Oxygen running and loved it. I would like to know what radio is recommend by AdamG. Is it still 5.14.05.17. I am on UK O2 as AdamG so I would like to know which one is he using ATM.
[Desire Android Development] laba82:
Does it really matter what's the recommended radio?

Just use the newest one if it doesn't give you any trouble.
[Desire Android Development] :
That radio has *never* been recommended. The recommended one for Oxygen used to be 5.09.05.30_2.

Personally I recommend either the latest one which your provider includes in their branded release or 5.09.05.30_2 or 5.11.05.27, because they are the 2 radios included so far in the HTC WWE unbranded FroYo release and subsequent updates.

The other ones are likely operator or locale specific, mainly China, or leaked test radios, so personally I don't recommend those.

I think O2 include 5.09.05.30_2 in their latest stock release, so you should use that.
[Desire Android Development] majo_scigo:
Thank and sorry I meant to say the above one. I do actually use it as well. The reason I asked is that there are few others available but you answered it.

Open the zip ;-)
[Desire Android Development] alpinux:
Uiui, it's too early for me. I'm totally sorry.

Thanks for the 'hint'!

But there is still the question, if the hboots work with pvt-4 40000 devices.

Edit: Yes, they're working with pvt4-40000 devices!
[Desire Android Development] amitabhishek:
Perfect ROM if someone is looking for stock Android experience with a smaller footprint. However there are two not so serious issues or may I say annoyances.

1) Every time the phone is restarted screen timeout needs to be manually enabled or else display will remain ON till the time you lock the keyboard off.

2) The ROM does'nt display months in words i.e. January, February etc. wherever month stamping is needed its always like '05 6' or '29 5'.

Hope Adam fixes this in next iteration.
[Desire Android Development] mattman83:
2 - change your language to en-us or en-gb.

Hi,

I own a desire HD, and I was wondering if you think that it is possible

to get this rom, place inside the kernel of the desire HD

(if I am not wrong, the kernel will manage to comunication between the framework, and the hardware) ?

this is in order to build a rom 100% pure android, for the desire HD :

today, I can't find a simple rom, 100% android, for the desire HD...

thank you for any feedback

Olivier

You'll have to make it yourself if you want it for Desire HD.
[Desire Android Development] schiznik:
The desire HD is different hardware to the desire, send me your phone & ill port it for you ;)

Hello,

yes, the goal was to do it myself, but is it just remove the kernel, and put the HTC desire HD kernel to replace the Desire kernel in the rom or there is more things to do ???

thank you

[Desire Android Development] chillar:
I encounter again the problem, that after a long time of wifi usage, it fails to switch back to my mobile data connection. I had this problem before but got rid off it with devnull 1.0.3.

It seems to be back now, not sure whether it is since i switched to the german locales. Does anybody else have this problem?

Rom: devnul 1.0.3 - de locale

Radio is 32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.08

Kernel is latest stable thalamus 2.6.35.13

Any help appreciated!

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] FloHimself:
The de_DE version is build from the exact same source, so your problem do definitely not depend on the german version. Did you change anything else (e.g. the radio)?

Also take a look at: Issue 718
[Desire Android Development] :
It's somewhat more involved than that. The underlying hardware is different and needs different libraries to support it.

I suspect that not much would work *if* it did boot.
[Desire Android Development] daddyspud:
hay chaps is it oxygen hboot required or stock so for noobie question been looking threw the thread but couldnt see my answer

im thinkin it stock hboot as its only 48mbs????
[Desire Android Development] schiznik:
I'd recommend the Oxygen HBOOT, as there will be less wasted space on /system. Any should work though
[Desire Android Development] ianm2k4:
Oxygen hboot is the one to use. Stock will work fine but you get nearly 200M more room for apps with Oxygen hboot.
