[Q] Espressobar on Desire FroYo? - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there
I love Sense, but I saw the Espressobar that looks beautiful, I've got stock FroYo from HTC so just wondering if somebody could help me install this without rooting. I'm running Linux and I don't mind using ADB
Thanks for any help

cant be done sorry, the stock roms are odexed so can't be themed

That's a real shame, not even through use of adb? I don't wan to root because I had a bad experience last time.

You don't have to use adb, but you can install it by flash a zip file. Obviously you need to have root privilege.

The battery life on this rom is actually kinda good.
Better than other sense roms. Thanks for this one,im looking forward to a rom based on this one or atleast the new gingerbread sense from you sir. Your work is good.

So this is just a stock vision Sense? I'm confused on what's added on Virtuous and not on stock Sense?
are there any screenshots?
thanks
Pretty sure its just vision sense.

so... i can flash this on my Desire Z??
It's just almost Pure stock except:
Rooted with my customized version of Superuser (required until ChainsDD releases a version with my patches).
Deodexed with moderate compression throughout.
Busybox installed in /system/xbin.
Added large APNS list to /system/etc.
Yes,that`s all!
Otherwise its totally stock ROM.
Hi Guys! I have a short question concerning this ROM and Superuser
I used the 1.34 OTA Stock Sense ROM (right out of the box) and rooted my device with the HTC Vision Wiki tutorial. Everything worked fine.
Then "updated" to this ROM here and now my Superuser app keeps quitting as soon as I start the app.
I can't remove or update it (although there seems to be an update via Applanet).
Does anyone know how to fix it?
Thx in advance

Can you capture and post a logcat of the failure occurring?
If I tried to use logcat on my device with Terminal Emulator and I get this error message:
"Unable to open log device /dev/log/main : Permission denied"
Does it mean I'm no longer on S-Off and due to that Superuser is quitting all the time?
does any1 have a release note for this HTC rom?
Does this make you lose all your data?
Just curious as its official if its possible to flash without losing everything (again)...
can I flash this to my Rooted G2 with Engineering SPL and Clock work?
Or does the kernel need changing and stuff?

long as you are rooted/s-off you can flash this rom, you can also use any of the kernels from here: http://files.virtuousrom.com/vision/kernels/virtuous/2.x/ standard is the recommended =)
I want to try some sense apps, but not a full sense rom. Can I take these and push them to my CM7?
I will try in a bit
In short, no. Sense apps need the sense framework.
@Mnemoch Yes. If you're coming from another Sense ROM you can flash this without wiping - I flashed this over the official 1.72 last night and then added the standard OC kernel for Virtuous. It's smooth as butter

Yes that is the right guide to do a perm Root. Also what rom version is the Desire Z on? If it's on the 1.72 or 1.82 you will have to downgrade to 1.34 before you can root.
ROOT USING THIS GUIDE
If your on 1.72 or 1.82 DOWNGRADE USING THIS GUIDE.This downgrade will work for the 1.82 version, even though its for the 1.72
thank you guys for all your help I did it
Now the only thing is to choose very stable and working rom ?
Could you recommend any?
Thank you

For me stability is important, so is minimizing the number of times I have to wipe my device. So I avoid pre-release ROMs including RC's so I'm running the stock rooted ROM right now but anticipate moving to CM7 as soon as it's released and verified as stable.

[Q] How do I install Apps2SD?

I've rooted my HTC Desire quite a long time ago and am currently running Official_FroYo_2.10.405.2, but have never installed Apps2SD.
I want to install it now as I'm running out of space in the pathetic excuse for an internal memory that this phone has...
My questions are:
- Can I install Apps2SD on the ROM I currently have?
- Do I follow just any guide? even if it's almost 2 years old? (for example: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=535232), Or do I need to look for something newer, or more specific to my phone?
- What should I backup before I install Apps2SD?
Thanks in advance!
I feel best way is to install another rom with it built in. Try leedroid for familiar interface else you can check out miui or cm7.
There are also sense Rome with it.

[Q] Leedroid or Revolution HD noSense

Hello,
First I wanna say that I'm a noob when it comes to this kinda stuff. I've managed to root my phone and flash a couple of ROMs but that's about it. I was thinking about trying LeeDroid or Revolution HD, but I don't like the Sense UI and have no idea how to get noSense. Some help would be much appreciated!

If you really want to stick Wii LD or ARHD then just flash the no-sense patch as shown in the Rom threads.
Otherwise, what Sergi said.

I can't say for certain that these will work with the stock ROM, but they are your best bet.
UnityV4
Virtuous Sense a7
Have you conisidered try a custom ROM? if you want to keep it as stock as possible I recommended Virtuous Sense 2.0
Try unity v4 kernel, its for all sense based runs. Let's you OC up to 1.7 ghz. Link is in my signature.

Thanks a lot ill try them both...
I don't actually want to try a custom ROM right now, as i really like the stock one as it is. I may well try that one though when im bored of it! Is that sense 2.1 or just 2.0?

It is sense 2.1, it is based off the official 2.3.3 DZ update, think of it as what you have all ready but with optimizations.
Oh and welcome to the DZ forums.

That is correct, download rom manager, flash CWM, boot in to CWM and flash .zip
Easy, but if you need anymore help, hop over to the Virtuous Rom IRC and I will be happy to talk you through it

There is a way but I'm very well versed in how to do it. If you read the DZ/G2 wiki it links you to a guide on to root 2.3.3.
if you need further help head to the 'G2ROOT IRC channel
I updated to the 2.3.3 OTA too, and I followed this guide here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1178912
Worked perfectly well
