Develop Bugs

[Q] Rooting my Wildfire

I'm really keen to root my phone, after looking at the options I thought CyanogenMod would be a good choice, but then I see for the stable release that is has quite a few bugs like corrupted video recording...
any suggestions please?

Cyanogenmod 7.

Sorry to kind thread-hack here but..
Does cyanogenmod7 work with 2.2.1?

Cyanogenmod 7 is 2.3.3

No. Installing any custom ROM requires root.

Although the release name may not be, it is extremely stable. I am using it as my daily / primary use ROM without any issues.

Video recording works on cm7, stop living in the cm6 days.

You are multiposting the same thing and now in a new thread...Better you can go ahead and check the ROM by self...And then tell us the bugs, working things, etc...

Is this stabile version

Lol...... do you honestly think if there was a stable ics rom available there wouldn't be a thread plastered all over the dev section for it already. This is probably arco's build or one of the other builds by erwinp or cobje (i think) which where all posted in the thread titled what's next!!

Custom rom help

I am a new user of the HTC DHD, i wanna know if there is any rom that has the least bugs and good battery as i am on the official 2.3.5 android and the battery life is making me wana die, i need my wifi all the time so please suggest a rom which has no problem with wifi and app running

Which rom do you currently use ? the stock one ?
If so, Sense consumes a bit more battery than AOSP roms.
I used to have Cyanogenmod 7.2 with LordModUE 8.9b7 kernel. And it is very very good.
That's for GB roms.
Both JellyTime and IceColdSandwhich roms are good too (but still in beta).
But Wifi is far from being cool with a battery ... Wifi is energy-greedy!!

If you wand the stock HTC look a recommend android revolution
If you wand better performances and battery life use AOSP(android open source project) or Cyanogenmod of AOKP(android open kang project)
Ice cold sand witch have verry good battery life (only bug is camcorder for wat I know)

Which one do u recommend? Aosp or aokp?
Sent from my HTC Desire HD A9191 using xda app-developers app

Cyanogenmod 7.2 is rock stable !
Most of the GB rom are very stable too, and almost bug free.
You have to try each rom, Sense feeling ? Aosp one ?
I used SmartDroid for a long time and really enjoyed it.
Newer roms, 4.0 or 4.1 based are still buggy and lack some features but are already very fast and gives you the most recent android experience.
It's up to you to find the one that fits your needs.
One more point, updating your Radio can be good for your battery too.
I personnaly use 26.14.04.28_M without any issue. (but I may update it now, as I've just flashed Jelly time )

I think i'll go for the cyanogen 7.0, does it give a better battery life?
And btw what is "kernal" and which one should i use and how?

Go for 7.2 instead of 7.0
7.2 is the stable one for Desire HD: http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?type=stable&device=ace
A kernel is the core of the operating system. To extremely sum up, it deals with your hardware and your programs.
Installing a new one can give you some optimizations, better response, better battery etc.
I personally used the LordModUE kernels. Here is a direct link for the lastest version: http://blackice.omca.co.uk/download...ger-kernels/lordmodUEv8.9-CFS-b7-2WCR-TUN.zip
But be aware that to flash a kernel, you need to first boot with the kernel of the rom (here the CM one), then flash the new one.

First of all, and prior to flashing any rom, you need to perform a nandroid backup.
This is a backup of your current ROM, making an image of each partition, to be able to restore it later, in case of a crash or anything else.
Once you've rooted your phone, a recovery should be installed.
To perform a nandroid backup, you reboot into recovery and choose "backup".
Or, you can install Rom Manager from the market, and choose the same option.
Once this is done, and only after this, you're good to flash any rom you want !
Another method exits to reflash the stock rom, using RUU.
I won't explain this as you can find your answer on this forum.
EDIT: don't forget to check MD5 or SHA1 sum to check the ROM/kernel integrity you download.

I use camera a lot is there any jelly bean custom mod with a working camera cause I am now bored to look at the dame gingerbread is since past 1 yr almost....want some change....
Sent from my HTC Desire HD A9191 using xda app-developers app

As far as I know, Jelly Time has a working stock camera app.
Actually, video recording in 720p is the only issue. Then, yes, I can take pictures with the stock app on Jelly Time ROM (currently beta 11).
If you want to record a video, you'll have either to change the resolution to 480p or use another app from the market (Videocam Illusion I believe, didn't test it though).
More information here.
The others JB based ROMs are currently too immature for now, and are not as stable as JellyTime.
Also, please be warn that you need to read the opening post (OP) carefully, the moderators are getting annoyed with all the same questions, which answers can be found in the OP.

What is AAHK? can u please post the links as well and will my contacts, apps and messages get deleted if i flash a custom firmware?

Advance Ace Hack Kit - a tool developed by former xda member attn1 used to root, SIM Unlock & ENG S-OFF (ENG S-OFF allows you to flash custom ROM's without security checks e.g. md5 checks, bypassing restrictions placed by HTC on our device). He removed the link to it from the forums as he left xda due to personal reasons. Search attn1 ace hack kit on google to find it, as he hosts it on his website now

A mod already said it's ok to link the website as long as the link isn't for a direct download to the aahk

Yes your contacts, data and all personal data will be wiped upon flashing a new ROM, as flashing a ROM almost always requires you to wipe the data partitions. I reccomend you backup all of your data to avoid it. If your android and Sense version is android 2.3.5 and Sense version 3.0 then then you will have to downgrade your software version then attempt root

[Q] Video camera is not working fine in ARHD7.1

Guys....I am not able to use HD option in my video camera in ARHD7.1...As soon as I start recording it shows "Video camera stops unexpectedly" ..All other option such as wide screen, mms everything is working fine..What should I do now????
Please help tomorrow I have to shoot one program in HD....:crying:

You need to flash RCTweaks or use 7.0.0 camera. Read the last 20 or so posts on the ARHD thread for the RCTweaks link. Camera apk is also on the thread but that was uploaded several months ago. Bottomline... This is a well known issue, discussed several times and documented extensively in the thread. Just some reading would've helped you!!

Or you could flash the latest ARHD 7.2, the HD works. Just tried. Hope it helped you somehow.

1. The search fc ,
2. Got a major problem with super user...binary won't install after update ....
Am not telling that mike is a bad developer or his roms are bad. , but comparing to the older versions , it contains many bugs....
Either wait for 7.3 or flash older versions...
