[Desire Android Development] ziggy1001:
Games were pretty "hit and miss" for me tried asphalt5 and Guerilla bob sometimes they would play but a lot of FC's:(
[Desire Android Development] orsidoc:
so still no good..:( sorry to hear that i play only gameloft games so its no time to change:) i can live without icons...i have noticed a thing that when i had icons on lockscreen i could take one and move it around the lockscreen but now i cant do it..:mad: hate all this issues but im very confident that robo from his highness can resolve everything.i give him 1 month and my desire will be a great sensation! :cool:

You can apply the permissions fix on the files in /data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/files

It's in the thread somewhere (on my phone so not got the link to hand)

Tried the kernel fix, compass definitely seems fixed - Panorama now works with Seo's v10 camera. Also it's much smoother recording video. 720p recording still broken but wasn't expecting otherwise.

i have a problem :) i use watchdog application for monitoring cpu usage. and it always alerts for cpu usage with applications and sometimes it's really laggy. is there a problem with my phone :) ?
[Desire Android Development] smx11:
Yes. Uninstall watchdog and everything should be fine. This is just useless.
[Desire Android Development] rayiskon:
on insertcoin since yesterday the 720p is fixed, without those irritating glitches, i'm sure robo will include it in his next update. (it's a snq fix actually :) )

[Desire Android Development] b4kk3r:
*Homer voice* Woo Hoo

No seriously. Would be nice if this is incorporated in the new rom as well (A) Then the phone truly has 100% functionallity!

Also after reading about Dalvik JIT speeding up the phone, I turned it on in apps2gui...and my phone is flying right now. Didn't knew such a small change could make this much of a difference!
[Desire Android Development] Zeljko1234:
LOL guys, you should make guide on how to flash a kernel :D

Just to confirm, compass is working after update!!! I've tested outside with compass and google maps.

Big, big thanks to snq-. How to make donation to him?

Am I crazy but I can't turn on Dalvik JIT. Tap in a2sdgui, phone reboot it self. Start a2sdgui again and Dalvik JIT is still off. RCMix S v1.4.

sooo how long should first boot take? 5 minutes? also, if i try and stick the CM7 Version on a non CM7 HBOOT, would that even work (that part is theoretical interest).

Also, (a lot of questions :P hehe) how long does a normal HBOOT flashing take? for example going from stock to CM7?

thanks in adnvance ;)
[Desire Android Development] ziggy1001:
Different hboots have different system/data/cache sizes if the rom you flash uses more space than is available it won't boot

"how long does a normal HBOOT flashing take" about 5 seconds or less
[Desire Android Development] faddys123:
thanks but i knew that thread i tried it but the icons still dont show up or is their another update coming.
[Desire Android Development] Rumball:
I think you misinterpreted daddyspud's post. There currently is no icon fix (that doesn't break Google maps, HTC music, and others)...but when there is a fix it won't be hard to find...not to mention that you won't likely need to find it since all the sense 2.1+3 ROMs will soon incorporate the fix after/when one exists.
[Desire Android Development] Drag-On:
ty for the quick reply. Ok, so I am in a situation where I am under the impression I flashed CM7 (was on stock previously) ...yet it doesn't seem to "take". In other words, once i reset, it doesn't say anything about CM7, just same old "HBOOT 0.93.0001 ... and this is probably the reaosn why the latest CM7 ROM (1.6.1 i think) is not booting???

anymore help would be greatly appreciated... (and yes, S-OFF is done ;))
[Desire Android Development] ziggy1001:
So above "HBOOT 0.93.0001" it doesn't say Bravo PVT* SHIP S-OFF and above that in pink AlphaRev CM7
[Desire Android Development] Drag-On:
No, I'm Stuck with it saying AlphaRev Sense... and I do the PB99IMG.zip flash (of the CM7 one from the apharev website)...and it flashes text for about a quarter of a second, and ...well I thought that was it. But now, it's simply not working...this is what it says:

"AlphaRev Sense" (in pink)

"Bravo PVT1 SHIP S-OFF"

"HBOOT-0.93.1000"

"MICORP-031d"

"TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101"

"RADIO-5.11.05.27"

"Aug 10 2010, 17:52:18"

worryingly, i've now tried the sotck HBOOT version of the ROM, and it too doesnt work :(

can I have done something wrong during S-OFF procedure? I am willing to offer a tasty paypal donation to any problem solving ideas! (the phone needs to work by 7am...or I'm dead...lol)
[Desire Android Development] ali_loly10:
after 7 months of using ny htc desire and amazed withit and flashed over 200 ROMs

i still don't know what is dalvik cache and what does it do

and i also want to know if a swap partition would increase performance

thx in advance
[Desire Android Development] ali_loly10:
you dont have the stock hboot neither the cm7 hboot

you have to flash either from alpharev.nl and i recommend the fastboot method
[Desire Android Development] Drag-On:
I am really trying! lol...I used the CM7 zip update method and that seems to have failed... my problem with the fastboot method is, I dont really understand, from the alpharev website, what (or where) I am supposed to do/place the .IMG file?

on the phone as well?
[Desire Android Development] ziggy1001:
Android Flasher

Have a look at this nice easy GUI program to flash hboots (download the CM7 bravo_alphaspl-cm7.img from alpharev and MD5 check)

Phone must be in fastboot mode it will say "Fastboot USB" in that menu if you have the right divers installed. If you are on Win7 or Vista use attached drivers
[Desire Android Development] fridgeman:
download the cm7 image file, place the file into the same folder as the fastboot command on your pc. boot phone into fastboot. open a command prompt and cd to the tools folder where the fastboot command should be and type fastboot flash hboot (then the name of the cm7 image file including the .img press enter.

or as he says above :)
[Desire Android Development] JCLB:
Learn how Java language work, understand what is the bytecode and when does a Java program compiles and you will understand the purpose of Dalvik.

A java program is composed of (many) classes and ressources, etc...

Classes files are in Java sourcecode format (.java in .jar packages)

In order to run on a processor it must become binary, so the java source code must be compiled.

The binary code (ByteCode) resulting from compilation is independent from the processor architecture.

Then it runs in a virtual machine, that's the role of JavaVirtualMachine (the one about 25MB you download from oracle.com) or here the Dalvik's one.

A java program will always run on a device where a recent JVM is available, just as .NET C# with MS .Net Framework.

It would be silly to compile it each time you run a APK, so the Dalvik cache stores ByteCode, moreover it makes complex adjustments http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/dalvik.git;a=blob_plain;f=docs/dexopt.html;hb=HEAD

Finally the ByteCode is converted in an .dex Dalvik EXecutable and run.

That's why when you first launch an app it can take long time to start.

PS: I'm not a developer so don't hesitate to correct this short explanation :D
[Desire Android Development] Drag-On:
Thank you for that. a GUI makes things so much easier for noobs like me! :D

However, although I managed to get my HBOOT to be CM7 with your help, the installation of the ROM seems to still be taking an awful long time (although this time, at least, I've heard it restart (vibrate) a few times at least...) been 10 minutes now.... is this right? could the fact that my ext3 partition isnt 1gb but something like 800mb have something to do with this??

again, to all who have (and hopefully still will) help: THANK YOU!
[Desire Android Development] maersi:
+1 :D

(now where's the nearest wilderness to test it....)
[Desire Android Development] ziggy1001:
Rom reboots 3 times on first boot for darktremor script 800Mb is fine, i have used 500Mb (fat32 folowed by ext) Sadly if it doesn't boot then complete wipe is best including wiping, reformatting sd-card preferably with G-parted rather than a recovery program
[Desire Android Development] Drag-On:
Thank you...I kinda thought that a complete wipe would do it...but hey, at least the thing works again! ...clicking thanks on all of you who posted ideas/helped out in any way! if ur a developer, let me know and you'll get a beer from me.

V1.7

Hi robocik

When you will release v1.7? I am using 1.6.2 and its a very good Rom, in my opinion the best.

Can you tell us the change log of 1.7?

Thanks.
[Desire Android Development] Golimer:
bugs:v1.6.2

1. trackpad only wake up mobile but doesn't unlock

2. when trying to make picture with zoom the picture is absoloutly damaged (the top part of picture is merged... smth like that)
[Desire Android Development] faddys123:
Does anyone know how to preserve battery life?? Or a good kernel??
[Desire Android Development] ravish_919:
i dont have such bugs... everything is fine for me..
[Desire Android Development] mayurh:
+1 for the picture problem
[Desire Android Development] ravish_919:
1. flash snq's v05 kernel,

2. disable pocket mode in sound settings

3. *#*#4636#*#* in dialer & then in phone info chang the preferred network type to GSM auto (PRL)

4. Disable autosync

5. Dont use Live wallpapers

6. Disable animations

7. use autobrightness only when needed, i always set my brightness to 11% except when in sunlight or near window...

8. Try to avoid heavy usage on cpu

9. Use mobile network only when needed (if u battery life is very poor)..

these tips help my phone survive for more than 24 hours...
[Desire Android Development] franckdragan:
The first with trackpad is not really a bug and for me the picture is ok with zoom. I am on 1.6.2 also and everything is ok.

La cat esti de prost ma mir ca esti roman de al meu. Era doar o cerere de change log normala la orice nou ROM care e postat pe aici si atat.

Tot ce e pe forumul asta este facut cu pasiune si nu neaparat de a castiga ceva. Asta daca ai intr-adevar o pasiune si o imparti cu ceilalti, daca nu mergi in alta parte unde se vand si se cumpara astfel de lucruri. Nu cred ca e ceva atat de grav sa ceri modificarile dintr-un rom care e uploadat pentru ca toti asteptam mereu cu interes ce mai e nou la un anumit rom mai ales daca rom-ul ala este unul bine facut, dar vad ca faceti pe interesantii si avocatii lui robo de parca munciti cot la cot cu el. va place sa lingeti pe cineva? sau va bagati in seama ca oricum mai mult de atata nu sunteti in stare? in concluzie pacat de munca oamenilor de aici si pacat ca multi prosti au dreptul de a se exprima liber...noroc ca nu doare
