Guest Paul Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 Is HTC bootanimation and bootup sound working now? Yes! P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jamien Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 Battery issue still happening. Plugged in at 91%, unplugged near straight away and it was reporting 100%. I'm thinking this could be due to being mounted as a disk drive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Heppieboeddah Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 Tried to change the bootanimation with ADB adb push bootanimation.zip /system/customize/resource/ File was copyed but no new bootscreen. I am able to see the bootanimation.zip in /system/customize and /data/local Did i overlook something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Paul Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 /system/customize/resource IS where it lives. You pushed while in recovery mode and after doing 'adb shell mount /system' right? P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest zombiefly Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 (edited) Hi! I've just got my desire and have installed r8 on it. My SD card is partitioned for apps2sd (from my hero). Can someone please explain how a2sd works with r8? :D If I don't select apps2sd in the kitchen and leave both ticks off, will i get the standard "move to sd" in the manage applications screen? See the first time I didnt select and apps2sd options in the kitchen and I couldn't move any apps to the sd. If I do select one of the apps2sd options in the kitchen, how do I know its working? What are the differences between the 2 methods (froyo vs the 2 scripts) and which one is best to use? I have no idea if its working or not. Just looking for some clarity. Thanks for this 2.2 desire rom! Was very annoying to move from 2.2 (hero) to 2.1 (t-mobile desire). It's pathetic that t-mob ALWAYS lag behind on these updates.

Guest dchuraman Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 also, since i installed r8, gmail was working fine, no wipe and no clearing of data needed. Now i just updated a load of apps using update all, and Gmail is force closing constantly, cant use it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest dw9 Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 (edited) A brief question, I see that by default the 802.11N WiFi support is disabled in the kitchen. Is that due to batterylife? - or are there other negative backdrafts connected to enabeling support? bests ./dw9 Edited August 12, 2010 by dw9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EddyOS Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 It apparently sucks battery life but as I don't have N I don't use it and still see less than average battery life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest kevinof Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 I tried it first without a wipe and ended up with zero space free and lots of other issues. Did a wipe and all went well. Installed Titanium and do a batch backup of apps and data and you're (almost) all set. Anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Gaspedal Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 (edited) Found a bug in R7 and R8 ! After WakeUp of my Phone, I have lost the "pinch to zoom" function on all apps (incl. Sense) !. Only an reboot can help you. This happens sometimes.. I use the Trackball WakeUp. Edited August 12, 2010 by Gaspedal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Installed Titanium and do a batch backup of apps and data and you're (almost) all set. When I ended up with zero free space on the SD card, I just copied everything off it to PC, formatted the SD, then copied everything back. No need to wipe and everythings been great.

Only an reboot can help you. This happens sometimes.. I use the Trackball WakeUp. did you change your input method (or it maybe a problem with trackpoint, dunno)? because its a known bug in the stock roms (if you change your input method then you must reboot to get beck your pinch zoom function) in modaco roms pinch zoom is working fine for me, i dont use the modified wake up functions.

Guest Jerry13 Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 Anyone else got the stock contacts search bug? Hit search while in contacts, put in your search term and nothing happens. Yeah I got that on R7. Very annoying but I wonder if it is an HTC bug as opposed to being specific to Paul's roms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest indyjones Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 Tried r8 this morning and it broke album art for me, (was an over the top update from r7). So I rolled back to r7 which seems to of broken the superuser program :D this means i can use clockworkmod to restore my nandriod back up. Oh well will have to run it from the pc tonight.

Can't you use fake-flash to run ClockworkMod Recovery? That shouldn't need Super User app to work as it is loaded even before the ROM loads, AFAIK.

Guest HearThatVoiceAgain Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 Can't you use fake-flash to run ClockworkMod Recovery? The problem is that the superuser was updated in r8 which if you go back to anything earlier without wiping will cause conflicts. I discovered this myself flashing back to R5, you have to use the fake flash as scared suggested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
