[Q] Genuine n00b query after rooting on HTC Desire ROMS - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I used the simple steps on the awesome revolutionary.io site to unlock and root my device, now proceeding further i had several queries which i googled but didnt find exactly what i wanted... so here i go.
1. I read about several Sense 4 + ICS ROMS but want to know is there any stable and fully working one?
2. I am backing up all apps (including HTC custom apps) using titanium backup, now i wanna know if the HTC custom apps (like weather, clock) can be installed on any ROM i install.
3. I read about app2sd, data2sd and simple2sd and understood most of it, but my doubt is if we use data2sd will we have to backup and restore all data and apps everytime after installing new rom?
4. Last one i saw ppl recommending class 6 cards for data2sd, is class 6 recommended for simple2sd? and will class 10 be better?
thanks in advance

1. No
2. No
3. Yes
4. Depending on SD, some Class 10 are not compatible so it's better to just get Class 6.

1) not working, very long way to go for daily driver
2) htc app requires htc framework unless ported properly
3) you don't need to restore all data unless you want to setup it again manually
4) desire was not made for class 10, some of desires are able to run class 10 some not, class 6 is safer and speed difference on desire is nearly the same due to limitation of hardware
edit: got beaten see above

Thanks all, have decided to go with Runny ROM v6.1.1 just too much into Sense UI

All was going ok... but during the first boot after installing runny rom my phone is stuck on the boot animation :\ (almost 10 mins now) what to do?

Wait a bit longer...may take a while.
Did you create a ext4 partition ?

Let's continue from here, what recovery do you have (clockwork, 4EXT ?)
sent from the Netherlands....

clockwork

sud i create the partition now?

oke, I had clockwork months ago. Now I am on 4ext. But what you can try is to put your sd in your pc and create a ext 4 partition with a program like wizard home partition.
Your sd card need to be setup like this
1 : FAT 32 - PRIMARY
2 : EXT4 - PRIMARY
your FAT size doesn't matter, EXT4 partition should be around 1024 mb.
don't know if you can repartiton your sd card within clockwork recovery !
sent from the Netherlands....

And its best to do a full wipe of the phone too, wipe everything
Cache
Dalvik
System
Data
Boot
Sd ext
Just to be sure .... and flash the rom all over . Maybe there is a faster way but I think this is the safest way !

[Q] steps to get data2sd+ and apps2sd. plz help

ive been looking for houra now on how to properly get data2sd and appssd working but to no avail. some rom descriptions sound like u convert thru clockwork b4 u flash and some sound like u do it after. im very confused up to this point. also im looking for a sense replica with the added features of a rooted user and no bloatware. im not planning on flashing another rom later either cause sense looks awesum but has speed and memory issues. plz lend a helping hand. i had my sgs up and hacke din afew hours. been always 2 days now and i still dont know wtf im doing
ok first start off with apps2sd, data2sd is still experimental..... all you have to do, is create a secondary partition on your sd card, in either the ext2, ext3 or ext4 file system, then just flash an apps2sd enabled rom from recovery ....... job done
I'm having problems with this on my Desire..
I made the EXT3 partition on my rooted HTC Hero.
Under "Partition sdcard" i set Swap-size = 1024 and Ext2-size = 1024.
When it was done i choosed SD:ext2 to ext3.
And then i put the SD-card on my Desire.
1. First i made a EXT3 partition on my SD-card.
2. Then i flashed this ROM on my phone.
3. Before the first boot i flashed this file.
4. Then rebooted the phone, but it still says only 140MB free space.
Please help - cant really figure out how to do it..

If you want Data2SD though, you can checkout my Rom thread..Sounds exactly what the doc ordered. It does come with a few third party apps-Astro, Titanium etc which can be immediately removed by flashing an addon zip file.
And for the record..this particular flavor of Data2SD is no more experimental..

dude apps2sd does not increase your internal storage, it creates a symlink between /data/app/ and the SD-EXT, so when you install an app, rather than the apk going straight into the /data/app/ directory it goes to the the ext partition, taking up less to none internal storage...
Data2sd does increase your internal storage, but unless you have a class 10 sd card, you desire is going to end up slower than your hero lol and the constant R/W cycles mean your sd card will be dead before you know it

go to mounts and storage and format everything apart from sdcard. Then try to reflash a ROM
I unrooted it but its still have Alpharev hboot, I tryed agien after bravo_downgare.img I hope it works, if it works I'll root it agien.
Ok I'm back at working gingerbread, I'm rooting right now. After that I'll create one fat32 partition and two ext4 for this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103410
I hope it works this time.
Any ideas why it didn't work in first place?
After rooting I have HBOOT 6.93.1002
delete your partition and start over with gparted
create your both partition with gparted and then wipe data/factory reset , wipe cache , wipe dalvik cache through recovery and after you have done this steps flash your desired rom
I did it all and when I choose install zip from sd it say's E: can't mount /sdcard
I'm back on original gingerbread becouse I tryed 5 different romds from Sensation based to Android stock roms and all of them stuck in slpash screen. Why?

I made my ext 4 partitions with gparted live. As it didin't work I even tryed "create partitions" in recovery. Still stuck at splash screen. If I connect it to PC it constantly sound like I would connect it and disconnect it from PC.
did you created ext 2, ext 3?
did you create ext 2 & ext 3?
maybe the special requirement for the ROM that you wanted to flash is that you need ext 4, but I think you have to have ext 2 & ext 3 partition, like normal.
it is rather uncommon to me (I've only been here not very long) to see a ROM that requires two ext 4 partitions.

As far as I understand for this ROM i need two ext partitions - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103410
"Remember, in order for data2ext to work properly you need fat+ext+ext where your 2nd ext is 1/3 of your first ext"
What kind of ext partitions should I make ext 3?
I just understood why I'm stuck at splash screen - it's cuz I dont have root access. I use http://revolutionary.io/ but It just give me S-Off and not Root access.
How can I get root accesss?
The root permissions are inside the rom..as u going to install a custom rom, every custom rom have root access..

Hello !
I had my Desire 1 month ago but I was in vacation so I couldn't download any soft to root my phone.today, I rooted my HTC and installed ClockWork Recovery with Unrevoked , this was simple. Now I want to install a custom ROM : LeeDrOiD HD (I'll update to have Sense 3.0)
But, I see two versions : Data++ and A2SD++, What do they mean ? I kown I have to do a EXT3 1 Gb Partition on my microSD. Can I do it with my Ubuntu Linux or I have to do it with GParted Live CD ?
Thanks in advance !!!

davebugyi said:
Data++ is a technique that was first implemented and tested by ClassicalDude. Using a re-laid out nand MTD, only the davlik-cache is retained in the internal memory. All .apk's are moved to the SD-EXT partition, where they are rarely accessed. This means a HD RoM can be fit in 180MB, leaving a lot of room for userdata which will remain in the internal memory. This results in a lightning fast ROM which stays fast through with no lag whatsoever during market downloads etc. Add to this the cool fix from coolexe and baadnewz that creates a dynamically resizable ram-disk for market downloads: and you have a great RoM that doesn't need to waste space for cache and will never have a market download fail!]/quote]http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=992176

A2SD+ is a script which moves all apps you install automatically to an ext partition on your sd card. You must not do anyhting. If you use "move to sd card" in application settings, the app will be moved to fat32 partition of sd card. Android can only difference between apps in " internal memoory" and in "fat32 partition of sd card". Furthermore, with A2SD+ the dalvik-cache will be also moved to the sd ext partition on your sd card (which does not happen, if the rom is only using a2sd).
To sum it up, a2sd+ moves only apps and dalvik-cache to an ext partition on your sdcard, whereas data++ also moves some system apps to it. That's the reason why roms with data++ works with less space for internal system partition.
You can use Ubuntu to partition your sd card. If gparted is not included (I do not remember, installed ubuntu some time ago), you can download it from ubuntu software center (search for "gnome partition editor").

No. The goldcard has nothing to do with the rom. It's only connected to sd card. You can stay with the one you have.

Can I get my HTC Desire to use the SD card as its app memory?

Any one know if I can get my HTC Desire to use the SD card as its app memory?

1. root it (alpharev/unrevoked)
2. s-off (revolutionary)
3. NAND backup the current ROM from recovery mode
4. flash custom HBoot based on your requirement (refer to table in alpharev.nl)
[by this you get more internal memory increased, maximum you can get
332Mb for data]
5. install custom ROM of your choice which uses different scripts to move apps
to sd (s2e, a2sd, data2ext, etc....)
6. NABD backup the newly installed custom ROM
7. partition SD card for Fat32 and EXT3 (1gb) using gparted
8. reflash it the custom rom or restore from the back
you can refer to rooting guide which is available in the xda forum, below url may also help you regarding custom roms

What our sarcastic friend Terepin is trying to say is that you can't really use the SD card as an extension of your phone's internal memory without using an A2SD ROM.

Root your phone mate, and then use a RoM with data2SD If you want to stay with HTC sense then I recommend Droidzones RoMs.
This one is Sense 2.1
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1143456
And this one is Sense 1.0
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1045824
Note you will need a SD card class 4 and above, Read up about Gparted after you have Rooted your phone this will let you partition your Sd card Giving you upto 2GB internal Memory.
If your bored of HTC Sense, I recommend MIUI RoM its superb
Good luck
HUummm... why is it always so hard for me?
I tried to root with un Revoked which I have used in the past but that failed because I have 2.3.3 installed.
I then went back to my Froyo RUU but that failed because of the H Boot.
Finally I rooted with http://revolutionary.io and now need to sort myself out with a ROM.
Just a note: you don't need Gparted for ext partition. You can either format your entire card with CWM, or you can use free partition manager EASUS Partition Master Home to create ext3 partition and then convert it with alignement script from coolexe. It certainly saves time.

Only down side to using recovery its max size is 512MB. EASUS dont like because its windows app, I find it best to use Gparted because its Linux witch android its self is based on.

Hi everybody,
got the same problem as the person who started this thread with the memory issues. Done everything except install a custom rom, which I am about to do.
(note: currently 0n 2.3.3)
Currently have CM 7.1 downloaded on computer and going to install....BUT every instruction i see requires me to have rom manager/ clockworkmod recovery. HOWEVER, I can't install these because ''this app can't be installed in your country''. unfortunately used to this.
So does anyone by chance have any links to instructions or have instructions of how I can install this without downloading any apps, hopefully an idiot proof version.(Not worried about saving a recovery etc....phone is basically blank.)
Also would CM 7.1 be a good start?? Is there any easier rom to install that still has the apps2sd feature which is the primary point of doing all this( maybe miui).
Thanks in advance for any help.
Regards,
rkdeane
Everything you need is in the Desire Developement forum - STICKY!
You don't apps, just root (S-OFF is a good choice too) and custom recovery (like CWM, AmonRa).

[Q] Cant sign to google account

First of all sorry to disdurb anyone with my issue, but tried everything and nothing works for me so I am kind of desperate here.
Well I am an owner of an HTC Desire (GSM) and had problem with low internal memory so I googled and found out a method to extend my internal memory to 2GB . I installed revolutionary which makes the phone S-OFF and installs clockworkmod I guess. Then downloaded the Cyanmodgen (cm-7.2.0.1-bravo.zip) also downloaded the Data2SDinstalerv1.3_GB.zip. I partioned a 8 GB SD Kingston microSD card to 4GB FAT32 and 4GB ext4 using Gparted. Installed everything with this order in recovery mod from the FAT32. Everything work perfectly. I also didnt touch the google apps at all and downloaded the latest version from goo.im (gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip) and only after that tried to sign in to my google account. But it seems that I cant sign in. It keep telling me I entered the wrong e-mail and password. The e-mail and password works just fine with a pc but dont work with the HTC desire. I am guessing that the google apps from the goo.im are an old version that wont work ? What wrong I am doing? There is something like a code bar I am seeing everywhere I search for a solution. What is this that for and what do I do with it?
Please help cause right now I cant sign to my google acount therefore no google play and all the rest google stuff for me.
4gb ext4 is too big. Should be 1-1.5gb max. Install 4ext recovery. Its much better. Repartition your SD card, wipe everything and re-install. Should work fine.

That is the md5 checksum. Once you've downloaded something you can look at it's md5. If it is the same as what is shown on the download site it means that the file has been downloaded properly. If not, it means that the file has been corrupted somehow and that you should redownload it.

When I open ext4 recovery there is nothing inside. Should I uninstall Clockworkmod and then install ext4 recovery? in recovery mod its still the Clockworkmod. Did ext4 recovery changed something with the framework and now its working ok (yet I dont see anything in the ext4 recovery screen- just black screen). How to uninstall clockworkmod?

Your recovery has got nothing to do with your signing into Google account.
I recommended 4ext recovery to partition your card correctly with 1-1.5gb of ext4 partition size.
When you install 4ext recovery from the app (search for the apk here), it will overwrite the existing clockworkmod recovery.

Thanks for your infos. You are helping me a lot. One more question. As I see on your signature you say you use a class 10 SD card. I think that's faster but is it 100% compatible with the HTC Desire? Should I buy a class 6 or a class 10 SD card? and is there something extra (tweaks) I have to do with the class 10 SD or the partition with the same method ( 8GB Total => 7GB FAT32 & 1GB ext4)?
Thanks a lot!

I have partioned a 16 GB class10 SanDisk SD card with GParted to 13GB fat32 and to 1,5 GB ext4 volumes.
I am kind of desperate here every ROM I use it ends up crashing. What I mean is I install the rom but when I am using the phone I am getting lots lots of failure message or phone reboot by itself or stop responding at all . Application this stopped responding and aplication that stopped responding.
I finally kind of making progress with the Supernova version but some issues also there programs crashing but less times and a sign saying my SD card has only read properties something like that.
Should I do a partion with the ext4 recovery programm from my phone? Can this be the problem? If so is there a quide for that?
please help

Yes. Gparted is known to have issues with the desire partitioning. There's a good guide in the stickies (you'll have to look) but basically flash 4ext recovery, reboot to recovery and remove all partitions and start again. 1st partition 1 or 1.5 gb (not 3, or 5...) rest fat 32. Wipe everything and install your Rom of choice .

This is simply not true, it is the most reliable tool when used properly using all the guides available.
4ext is also reliable, just easier to use
