Develop Bugs

[Q] Newby need entlightment from pros

Hello everyone,
I just got myself a new HTC Desire with Vodafone Branding.
HBOOT : 0.800
Software number: 1.19.161.5 (I believe this should be Android 2.1)
Kernel version : 2.6.29-b7e82785 (I guess this is still HTC original)
I wanna root my phone and if I guess that I can do further, I am also thinking of using another rom.
My main concern is that the internal memory can not fit any more apps and I still want to add more, after searching in the internet I found out that I need to root and/or to use other rom.
Second concern...I just wanna learn..
I have downloaded Unrevoked3 and the H-Boot USB driver.
From what I have read, I am all set for rooting (gonna do this tomorrow evening after work and after I have calmed down a bit, I am a bit nervous cause this is my first time ).
I have removed the HTCsync but still keeping the drivers.
I also know that I will need ClockworkMod. Make EXT2/3/4 partition with at least 512MB (I would like to make it 1gb) and optional SWAP (perhaps I will make it 256mb, do I really need SWAP?).
So, please teach me on :
1. Now about the rom, I need an Android 2.2 with optimum stability and speed, to tell you the fact, I don't even now which one and where to get it.
2. Beside the main rom, do I need also the camera and radio rom to get them running? again where to get them? How do I install them? The same way as installing the main rom (from HBOOT recovery)? Before or after installing the main rom?
3. How to make the back up of my current rom, setting, and apps? I don't have much apps yet but perhaps I would need the backup if something went wrong.
I still a whole bunch of questions but I guess those will do for now.
Please be kind and help me one this one pleaassssseeeeeeeee...
Anyway...thanks in advance.

1. This thread has all the rom's in it. It's all about personal taste but if you like sense i would recommend Leedroid to start with.
2. When you come form 2.1 you will need to upgrade your Radio, if you OTA upgrade to 2.2 before rooting you do not have to update your radio but you can. A link to the radio thread is also in the above link.
3.
Once you are rooted with unrevoked you can preform a nandroid form recovery or you can download Rom Manager from the market and backup via that.
If you just want to backup apps you can use titanium backup or you could sync your apps with appbrain and reinstall them.
About the ext partition, i think swap is not necessary and if you want a 1 gig partition use Gparted

Thank you very much for the answer.
I will look into those first.
If I found any trouble, I will ask you guys again.
Thank you again.

First, I wanna say thank you again.
I have read some review about the LeeDroid. It sounds very good.
I will pick LeeDroid as my first after market rom.
I will thus flash (.zip files are already downloaded in the PC) :
Leedroid 2.2e
Latest Radio ROM; 32.48.00.32U_5.11.05.27
LeeDroid 2.2e Kernel Boot Fix (Just to be sure, because I don't how my desires proc can be OCed)
DSP Manager.
My last questions:
- Is there any particular order which rom I should flash first?
Example : LeeDroid - Radio - Kernel Fix - DSP manager
-Can I flash them all with only 1 reboot (flash everything and choose reboot only once in H-Boot recovery menu)? or Do I have to flash only one at a time, reboot, and flash the next one and reboot again?

I'm not sure about radio's.
But if you flash leedroid 2.2e you need to flash it and after it (without reboot) flash the bootfix kernel.
Addons and theme's should be flash after the first full boot.

that is the correct order
you must flash the rom first, reboot, then flash the rest all in one go. REMEBER the first reboot is important!!

Got it!
Radio (I need the radio rom cause my radio rom is old, belongs to original 2.1) , Leedroid main rom and Kernel Fix in one go, then 1st reboot.
And then the other addons in one go.
and of course reboot again.
Thanks a lot guys!

h3llb3nd4 why is it important to reboot after rom flash?

It needs to install the boot images for the Rom.

lots of things came up to me this weekend, I am not able to flash my Desire.
Since I am doing this for the first time, I would like to have a quite time for myself alone, so that I am calm during the flashing just in case if something went wrong.
well...I will do it (I hope) on next friday evening...
I will write again the progress next week.
Untill now all I have done is the rooting via Unrevoked3, and installing the rom manager from android market. I haven'T even formatted the sd card.
Thanks again.

OK, Go to hell with quiteness.
I can not wait hehehehe just to anxious to start flashing.
and.....
I did it...it works...
Thank you

Flashing is not that hard...hehehehe...
I have played with LeeDroid and I have to say...This can do a lot more than the original.
Hmmm...I a fan of Sense although some say it slows down the phone.
I have tried the HTC HD ROM on my Desire, I like the new sense but too bad the camera still doesn't work. I have to go back to LeeDroid just because of the camera problem.

|OP|,
I joined this forum because I am a newbie just like you (before you got your Jedi-Flashing Wings).
I too have a HTC Desire running Android 2.2 (Kernel 2.6.32.15). I have exactly the same problem as you had - I've run out of room for apps on internal memory and the standard Froyo apps2sd thing can't shift anything else to the SD card.
I'm really interested to learn how your phone handles apps now. Does your phone think it has 1 gig of internal memory? Are you able to shift every app to the SD card? Did you have to give up your HTC apps and widgets?
I would really appreciate any feedback.
Cheers!

Yup...limited room for installing apps is my main or perhaps my only reason of flashing my desire with modified rom.
- About the 1GB thing, well I didn't do it since I wanna try the flashing procedure just as it is described in youtube desire rom flashing guide (not confident enough to do it all alone), and it is shown in youtube using only 512MB
But, I will try it later (planned on december after I finish my university assignment).
-Well, I have flashed and used it only for about a day or two, so I am still not 100% sure, but all the apps I have downloaded and installed are all going to the SDCard. I guess all of them will eventually go to the SDCard.
-HTC Apps and widgets? Everything is there, as far as I noticed until now.
Now, I am enjoying the DSP equalizer, apps to SDCard (16GB ), but still afraid of OCing.
SMS, WLAN, Camera, E-Mail, etc. seem to work smooth, no bugs found so far.
My Desire seems to run faster than with the original rom, but it is just my subjectiv comparison.

The phone won't 'see' your EXT partition but when you install apps the quoted storage will barely go down...I have a 1GB EXT3 partition on my SD card for when I use a custom ROM, its 16GB so I don't miss the space as I'm on a stock ROM at present and don't use many apps

If the storage are going down or used slowly, is it worth to have 1GB as EXT3 or just leave it be at 512MB?

Depends on the ammount of unneccessary apps you plan to install

Hahahahahahaha....
You got that one right on the spot.
Most of my apps are games.
Games are not considered as necessary apps.
I will stick with 512MB

Thanks EddyOS and |OS|,
This sounds awesome! I've got 14 MB remaining on my internal memory and a long list of apps I still want to play with.
With this news I'm going to jump into the whole flashing/rooting thing (incidently why do both of these terms have sexual overtones?).
LeeDroid here I come!
|O2| did you use the Unrevoked root method? Could you possibly post the youtube link that you mentioned? I am, as you were, quite anxious about turning my beloved Desire into an expensive paperweight so any extra tips would be very appreciated. (I have heard that it is fairly simple and has a very low risk but I'm still a bit hesitant)
Thanks again! What a wonderfully helpful community this is!

need a desire vets advice

hello all. i just recenlt bricked my galaxy s telus fascinate and got a desire replacement. i managed to get the root working without a issue (was superscared because of previous brick). now im looking for a rom. a good rom. coming from touch wiz, sense is mint. i love it.
so i want something that like stock sense with sense widgets without all the bloat and hopefully a proper app2sd (the stock app2sd is only moving like 1/3 of the data to sd and 2/3 is stayin in internal storage) . i heard desire hd roms r good but i dont really see the upside cause i dont know much about the phone yet just the OS. im runnin froyo 2.2 with hboot 93.0001.
any info would b mint. thx in advance
ps. only 1 day in, and the desire is running laps around the fascinate in every aspect except afew hardware issues like
-no internal sd card
-psx4droid is alot slower but i do own a hacked psp so no biggy
-and the app2sd sucks considering i went from 2 gigs internal storage to 133 mbs
but interface rocks. awaiting some opinions

You may want to take a gander at this thread: http://androidforums.com/desire-all-things-root/231930-desire-index-everything-desire-here.html
It has links to all the usual suspects when it comes to the different ROMs available, and once you get familiar with the ones that are out there you can do more detailed searches to see which one you may like the most. After that just download and get to flashing. As long as you nandroid backup before flashing anything you can always go back.

im looking for something exact replica of sense with a proper data2sd, bloatware removed. i heard desire hd roms r nicer but i really cant tell from videos on youtube. also i find sense alil bit slow in the home screen scrolling. is there any sense desire hd roms that can fix these issues?

LeeDroid 2.3d - superfast sense based 2.2 rom, with the stuff you need.
Baadnwz 1.8c- i'm using it now, a great HD port, but not as fast as the LD.

what about kernels? i had a overclocked voodoo kernel on my sgs and it ran games and emulators amazingly. ff9 on ps4drioid was running like 95% speed. any speed kernels or voodoo kernels available? and allso i hear the best way to manage storage is data and app2sd +. how do i go about installing that? b4 or after i flash the rom?

1. The Desire has an Adreno GPU, not a PowerVR SGX - so the graphics performance will be MUCH more slower, than the GS'. Also I use this kernel, gives me the best performance.
2. Most custom ROMs have that feature preinstalled (so installs automatically, when flashing the ROM), just make sure you have partitioned your SD Card (fat32+ext 2/3/4).

how do i go about partitioning the sd card? lm fat with a fresshreformat from my pc. now im quite sure ext/4 is the safest and most stable partition to use and 2 being the worst. on sgs, voodoo did the ext/4 for me and didnt have to do the work. so im confused on this part since ive seen nothing with a voodoo tag on it since i joined. and voodoo had to be deactivated everytime u flashed new software. does that still apply here>?

Use Gparted or easus partition for that.
Create a FAT32 partition first and then an ext4 partition (both primary).
You have to look for a2sd+ here in the ROMs description to make it work (LeeDroid definiately works). Make sure you have partitioned the SD card then just flash the ROM (of course nandroid backup first & full wipe) and it will go, you have to do nothing. It is an auto-script.

k im donwloapding gparted partition. how do i do this? i have a nandroid backup of stock with root and it says i will lose my data. and how does the program work? im finding the htc hacking to have alot more work involved then sgs. how do i backup my nandroid? can i copy and paste to my pc?do i partition thru the phone or pop the card out and put it directly into the pc?

how do i use this program?

A very good tutorial how to use Gparted, if you have no idea.
+Make sure you create a boot CD/USB correctly
How did you root your desire? With Unrevoked? What custom recovery do you have CWM or Amon RA?
How to make a nandroid backup.
Also search youtube and this forum on HOW to use a custom recovery.

k so i used some windows partition creator and partitioned fat32 with a 1.5 gb ext3 partition. flashed rcsmixhd. looks mint. running good so far. got the telus network working. only thing i really need 2 know is how does the app2sd+ work? does it automatically install it too sd? or do i haveta use a app? or can i go thru the settings applicqations manage move to sd card? this is all i have left todo so plz advice is a must

nvm i looked around and foundout titanium backup shows apps2sd drive. sweet. thx 4 all the help so far desire has a large lead on the fascinate. looks so beautiful

[Q] Please help Newbie - Post may also help neebie's root and updating to AmonRa

Hi all,
Please can you help me with the end questions, a quick background of what i've done so far.
I have been a member of Modaco for a while and used to own a Orange San Francisco, first android phone. I learnt a bit with that i.e rooting and updating to Paul's modaco rom's, market apps etc.
I have since bought a HTC desire and joined XDA which is a (superb forum), I'm really happy with my desire its on O2 contact and is the white newer version.
I was really confused with regards to rooting as the bootloader was high 0.93 so couldnt use some methods but newer posts showed that it was as easy as downloading unrevoked. Again had some problems rooting, realised that HTC sync must be installed first and then removed otherwise unrevoked will not pick up your phone.
Unrevoked rooted and installed Clockwork recovery, I then read about Amron Ra which is apparently more stable than Clockwork when installing Rom's, some posts suggested installing Rom manager and using flash recovery option, then alternative flash option in Rom manager to install AmonRa. So I installed Rom Manager it installed a newer version of Clockwork but when I then went to install alternative flash this option was blanked and not available.
After reading again I learnt I could flash Amron ra with unrevoked 3.0, you must go to file and custom recovery then find Amron Ra the version i installed was
recovery-RA-desire-v2.0.0-CM.img, I think this is the latest?.
Unrevoked went through the process, but stopped (oh no i thought this is going to get bricked) luckily everything was ok, after reading again I learnt that once rooted if your using unrevoked again its best to factory reset, so I backed everything up using Clockwork and made my first nand backup, I also packed up my installed apk's.
After factory reset, unrevoked did its magic and walla Amron Ra installed.
Now for the next step where I have some questions, unlike the orange san francisco the htc desire has loads of roms, some with sense (which i dont really know what is exactly yet) some froyo again what is froyo?, and some miui and some non sense.
So to a neebie where do you begin?
1. I have read about partitioning your sd card ext 2, 3 and 4, are these needed to use specific Roms and which ext do you need as it is very confusing?, I like the miui rom (MIUI XJ D2EXT X-PART 1.2.11) again there are 3 downloads there which should I download?
2. If the ext are needed must you have all 4 ext on a card and if so how much do you allocate for each if you have an 8gb card for example I read somewhere that the ext effects speed how can this be?
3. What are kernels I seem to be reading up about them a lot but no one really explains what they do, are they needed when installing a new Rom and can you mix and match different kernels with roms?.
4. Why is updating the radio on Rom's so important?, I see new roms then radio files must these be flashed?.
5. What is a dalvik cache clean is it the same as factory reset?
6. If I install a miui rom, which I'm interested in to start will there be any difficulties in later installing other sense or non sense roms and how do I go about avoiding these problems?.
7. What is the latest and best Miui rom available at the moment is it MIUI XJ D2EXT X-PART 1.2.11
These are all the questions for now, any help would be greatly appreciated at the moment I have a 4gb class 2 SD card but will be getting a 8gb class 6 in the next day or so, I mostly use the phone for texting, internet and sat nav.
Thanks a lot guys in advance.
All the best
Mav

You can refer to my answers over on MoDaCo

Wow, you have made quite a novel here
Half of your questions are answered TBH in the forums, so you should serach next time.
Okay
1.Which ext do you need? It will be 3 or 4, but every ROM thread specifies what do you need for it.
2. Of course you need all ext partitions on the SD Card. Again, there are ROM threads which specifies the size of the partitions. But usually look slike this:
* A2SD - Fat + Ext3/4, 0.5-1.5GB recommended.
* D2WE - Fat + Ext3/4, 1-1.5GB recommended.
* D2EXT - Fat + Ext4 + Ext4 + Swap (fat+1GB+0.3GB+0.1GB)
Can differ tough.
3.About the Kernels.
Tou can mix, but AOSP ROM with AOSP Kernel, Sense with Sense kernel. It is a chance that it will work otherwise, but will be buggy or phone won't boot.
4.If the ROM has new RIL (Radio interface layer) preinstalled, it is recommended to use a newer radios. Altough 5.11 version should work on every ROM.
5. No it is not.
dalvik cache is a program cache area for the program dalvik. Dalvik is a java based virtual machine that is the bases for running your programs (the ones that have the .apk extension). In order to make access times faster (because there's not JIT (just in time) compiler installed by default), the dalvik-cache is the result of dalvik doing a optimization of the running program. Sounds confusing. It's similar to the prefetch files in Windows.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
6. No problems should be - just do a full wipe (factory reset, wipe data, cache & dalvik).
7. Yeah, that is the latest version I know of.
Hope youll find the answers good enough

Thanks guys,
Just a bit confusing I would post to the author of the rom but at present haven't got enough posts.
Just a further quick questions, what do they mean by swap? and also there are 3 files to download xj, au, and dev, why 3 files and which is the best.
thanks

XJ, AU and DEV are 3 different builds by different authors so you'd need to check them all out
Here's a link to the MIUI-Dev website that you might wanna look at. It's quite quiet but obviously all MIUI
http://www.miui-dev.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?16-HTC-Desire-GSM

So EddyOS, I read somewhere on the modaco forum that you had miui installed at one point, if you had to put one on again which one would you use along with radio and kernel?.
I can see that you have loads of experience and i'll go with your recommendation I appreciate that it is a preference thing i mainly want something quickish, stable and cool looking (xj, au or dev?).
I like the miui because they look like an iphone but have an android feel so to speak so best of both worlds, im no iphone hater but it is over rated but icons look cool.
thanks

Rom with HTC Sense + ext SD partitioning

I am very new to this forum. My question is very basic one and there are high chances that it would have been answered previously.
I have been using HTC desire with its original ROM for last 2 years and feel very much comfortable with its sense UI. For last few days I have been getting notifications of the low memory so I decided to root the phone and put a custom ROM. To my success, I was able to root it and dumped a CyanogenMod-7.2.0.1-bravo ROM on it. I don’t feel comfortable with its UI and handling of contacts and other information so I wish to move back to ROM with original look & feel.
I saw an option of partitioning the SD but haven’t tried it yet. Can anyone guide me with the steps on how to “partition the SD with 1GB space (my SD card memory size is 16GB)” & “Which ROM should I put on my device (which has exactly same look & feel as original one)”

What recovery do you have? Install 4ext recovery for partitioning your sd-card.

It it ClockworkMod Recovery v5.0.2.0

Partitioning with 4EXT is the easiest, but you need to be S-OFF to flash 4EXT recovery.
This thread (step five) shows how to partition your SD card with a PC, but is a bit more complicated (still no rocket science though). If you're not familiar with this it might be easier to S-OFF with Revolutionary and install 4EXT recovery. BTW. I think you'll also need S-OFF to flash hboots (needed for some roms). 4EXT recovery can be found here. Just install the app 4EXT Recovery Updater (link in the first post).
For ROMs: everything is in this thread. Although I haven't tried them myself, I've heard Roms like AN-DROID, Supernova, Alex GingerSense and Insertcoin are 100% stable and close to stock sense. If you want to try the most up to date (and possible on Desire) Sense experience, try Runny Rom or Runnymede AIO. They are also stable, but a lot heavier and require some tweaking (changing hboot, a2sd and data2sd scripts).

Is it necessary that I make the partition with 4EXT ? If I make partition with ROM Manager will it work

maybe, but CWM Recovery is know for bad partitioning. u should always use 4ext recovery or gparted to do it

Since you've asked for a ROM which looks the same as stock one, I'd suggest you to use SUPERNOVA Xtreme made by Droidzone, it's based on the last GingerBread official update dropped by HTC with lots of improvements, you'll find all informations in its main thread.

I second the above, droidzone if you want stock.
The Sense 2.1/3.0 ROMs while stable, offer less battery life and are not as fast.........period
The Sense 3.5 / runny AIO ROMs offer more eye candy, and better email, camera, and music than the 2.1/3.0 ROMs but once again, speed, stability, and battery life
ICS / JB not ready as "daily drivers"
By all means, try the above, but if speed, stability, and long battery life are your aims rooted stock / or any ROMs based on "old sense" (the one that HTC released for our desires) are the way to go. For a user that just wants everything to work as it did in stock, even more so.
For partioning, gparted all the way. easy interface, can use a livecd for windows (linux is best, but alas), and most stable.
Good luck, glad to hear someone is happy with their phone the way it shipped (besides the memory issue.....the main reason to root!!!!)

I partitioned by SD card yesterday.
Using the partition utility in Rom Manager or in ClockworkMod failed for me.
What DID work for me was MiniTool Partition Wizard Home edition which was free.
The biggest bonus for me was that the tool did NOT erase the contents of the SD card.
Downside was that I has to remove the card from the phone - no big deal.
I split the partition and created an EX2 format of 1Gb
I then installed S2E on my Desire running CM7.
Moved the Apps, Private apps and Dalvik Cache
In settings chose Mount as ext4 (?)
Rebooted
Moved all apps from SDcard to Internal and rebooted.
The reboot did take longer and my Desire took some time to come back to life but now...
I have 72Mb of internal space instead of 12Mb.
VERY IMPRESSED

[Q] Unable to boot many roms

So, like a half of a year ago I've got my Desire, second hand. Now I didn't want to be stuck forever on Android 2.2 and old Sense, so I decided to root and install a newer rom. Rooting and S-OFF were succesful after a bit messing around, but it worked. So, I've tried a lot of roms, but just a few of them seemed to work, Usually the ones, I didn't need. Right now I'm on the Touchwiz 5 JB rom, but it sometimes has a problem with the microphone. Else than that, it works nicely stable, many times more stable than the 2.3.3 RUU from HTC. But don't really like the interface, I'm a huge fan of Sense.
Now I didn't get any Sense rom to work, all the way from the 2.1 Sense roms to the newest 4.1 rom (where the number is the Sense version). I only got some plain roms to work, which I've used a little time, but they don't really satisfy me.
So, the tech information: rooted with Revolutionary, so the recovery is the ClockworkMod. The phone is also S-OFF, runs on HBOOT 6.93.1002, and currently runs on the Touchwiz 5 JB rom. I've tried almost all roms with Sense, exept for some new ones (4.0+) since they still have a lot problems with things I need to have.
So, I hope somebody is able to help me.
Looking right now, I haven't tried the latest Cooldroid Revolution yet, so I'll try that right now.

Tell us a little about your sd-ext partition.

I'm 99% certain you didn't create EXT partition on SD card, or you didn't do it correctly.
Use 4ext recovery to partition your SD (create 1GB ext4 partition and nothing else, rest will be FAT32 where you store your media etc.)
Reason why Touchwiz 5 JB worked for you, is that it doesn't require EXT partition to boot, since you have to activate a2sd script manually using terminal.
And without a2sd you will run out of space rather quickly.

Well, I indeed have no EXT partition, since I've tried that once, but resulted into a USB brick and malfunctioning SD-card. I will google it whenever I've tried this rom.
