Paul has been having some issues with maintaining root on his Desire when upgrading. Once this is sorted, I would expect to see a kitchen fairly soon. B)

Huh?

Kali's Kernel is Googles Kernel but edited to run on the Desire and take AOSP builds, such as DeFrost and OpenDesire.

Modaco is based on HTC releases and uses a HTC edited kernel which has no issues with the OJ dying.

Gmail 2.3 fix coming up...

Cool. I read somewhere else that manually removing the .apk and then installing from the Market would work but I tried the removal with Ti Backup and no such luck.

I tried that but I got "installation unsuccessfull".

But I found apk file for new Gmail 2.3 in my /sdcard/downloads folder, replaced /system/app/Gmail.apk with new one (in recovery mode) then installed from Market GMail again to /data/app, booted to recover and deleted /system/app/Gmail.apk (this step is not needed). Now I have newest 2.3 on /data/app which is upgradable through Market.

On the Desire, you can't uninstall an app from /system using Titanium - if you check now, you should find you still have Gmail!

You need to remove using ADB from recovery.

Flashed with the last build and everyrhing's fine! However, I clicked by error some weeks ago on the fix permissions option in ROM Manager and also have the sms pics problem since that moment, even after reflash... If someone have a fix, it can be cool!

Thanks, I'd just downloaded aLogCat and did the same.

Difference in my log is a bunch of

E/cache ( 1814): /data/data/com.android.browser/cache/webviewCache/f9ec828e delete failed.

E/cache ( 1814): /data/data/com.android.browser/cache/webviewCache/fa9d97b8 delete failed.

lines, all with different items, nearly 200 of them.

Attached if anyone wants a look.

I tried...

adb shell rm -rf /data/data/com.android.browser/cache

mkdir /data/data/com.android.browser/cache

chmod -R 10004 /data/data/com.android.browser/cache

chgrp -R 10004 /data/data/com.android.browser/cache[/code]

...which matches the other files in that dir.



Will let you know if that helps...

paul, this helps if browser runs as 10004, mine runs as 10003 ie

so how do we know?

also this removes the symlink from /data/data/ ... /cache to /app-chache/ .... /cache

will take more internal storage then?

WOW~~!!!!! look amazing!!!! i will wait that paul will put it in his rom+the heb fix:)

Thx for the pics and thx for paul for his work!

No guarantees at the moment, apparently the new HD ROM is too big to fit on the Desire.

Hopefully they'll be able to trim it down a bit so we can use it!

actually this comes from

bootcomplete.bravo.rc

rm -r /data/data/com.android.browser/cache

mkdir /app-cache/com.android.browser

chmod 755 /app-cache/com.android.browser

chownto /app-cache/com.android.browser /data/data/com.android.browser

mkdir /app-cache/com.android.browser/cache

chmod 755 /app-cache/com.android.browser/cache

chownto /app-cache/com.android.browser/cache /data/data/com.android.browser

ln -s /app-cache/com.android.browser/cache /data/data/com.android.browser/cache

rm -r /data/app-cache

Groovy. I plugged the phone in, ran adb shell and just renamed the Gmail.apk in /system/app. Rebooted and the update installed.

Yeah, check the URL. It has a %22 double quote at the end.

It points to this: http://android.modaco.com/content/htc-desi...ndows-mac-linux

rm -r /data/app-cache

Sorry, no disrespect to you or anyone else, I've no idea where bootcomplete.bravo.rc comes from but I've been using Paul's ROMs since I converted to Android and considered him to be the one who brings it all together in the neatest fashion.

I don't pretend to understand Linux or ADB, I just appreciate it when it falls into place.
