For those familiar with my pre-rooted stock Froyo ROM, this is the first release of HTC's official HTC Desire Gingerbread ROM. As before, the base ROM is entirely stock, but with the following minimal changes:
Added root (including busybox)
Superuser App - 2.3.6.3 (ChainsDD)
init.d support
This ROM requires a full wipe to install. There is no option here - the ROM will automatically wipe your phone's storage (excluding the sdcard). Therefore it's highly recommended to do a back up before installing.
The ROM does not include the radio, but you should install this at the same time you install the ROM, if you don't have this version already. The radio supplied with HTC's release is 5.17.05.23 and this is provided below.
3.14.405.1 INIT.D ROM
Download 3.14.405.1 Stock ROM (1.0-test)

Download 5.17.05.23 Radio
md5: 738a94c891a6a10082c8bf9f5c4884ba
OPTIONS
Below are some mods to this ROM (more will follow). They are purely optional, and of course take you further away from the stock ROM. Remember that all of these mods are designed to work with this ROM specifically, and not others.
UPDATE APPS (1.0) - updated || 03/08
This will update your system Google apps to the latest market versions: Maps 5.8.0, Gmail 2.3.5.
POWERSAVING MODULES - updated || 10/08
This reduces your battery usage by slightly undervolting, and by forcing the CPU down to 245MHz when the screen is off (it will also fall to 245MHz when idle). Additionally, when battery capacity falls below 30%, the maximum speed will be 800MHz, less than 20% it will be 700MHz and less than 10% it will be limited to 380MHz. When your phone is connected to a charger, it will boost performance a bit when the screen is on, and the speed will not be limited.
A2SD (1.0) - updated || 05/08
With this mod your apps will be saved to the sdcard instead of internal storage. Gingerbread includes enhanced support for moving apps to your sdcard, but not all can be moved, and so this isn't sufficient for everybody. If you need more space, this will help. For this to work you need your sdcard formatted with two partitions, the first a regular FAT partition for general use, the second an ext2/ext3 partition exclusively for A2SD. If you install the mod without a second partition A2SD will not be activated, but it will automatically start up if you create the partition later on your next boot.
MINOR TWEAKS & EXT4 (2.0) - updated || 20/08
This mod will install the default boot animation to the data area, where you can replace it with a custom one if you want to. It also allows hosts modification (you can use the AdFree Android app - do not use the symlink option in it). You will need to re-apply this mod if you do a full wipe. 2.0: Add ext4 support.
REMOVE BOOTSOUND (1.0) - updated || 04/08
Disables the sound on boot up.
INSTALLATION
Your phone must be rooted with custom recovery to install this ROM. There are plenty of guides on how to do this simple procedure. The recommended steps for installation are as follows:
Back up your contacts, apps and text messages to your sdcard; reboot the phone into custom recovery; perform a full backup in recovery; install the radio (select 'install zip from sdcard'); install the ROM; reboot.
After you update the radio the phone will reboot a couple of times, this is normal. The first regular boot may take a little longer than usual.
FAQ
Q. I have installed the official HTC developer Gingerbread update. Can I install this?
A. The preview of the new version of Alpharev (Revolutionary) should be able to help you with this.
Q. Do I need to install this radio?
A. No, but it's highly recommended.
Q. Does this support 720p?
A. Yes. It supports everything that the official ROM supports.
Q. My wifi disconnects occasionally - I had no problem in froyo.
A. This is a problem with the official ROM. It cuts the wifi connection if the signal falls low and switches to your data connection. There will be an optional mod to revert this soon.
Q. Can I use this with Alpharev?
A. Yes. But your system partition must be 250mb.
Hi Teppic,
I'm still using your froyo rom. Thank you very much, runs very smoothly. I didn't use the a2sd+ you included there but i need more room now.
How much space is left to install apps after installing this rom?
Will you include a powersaving modpack?
If you add some form of apps to sd will you give us the option of keeping dalvik cache on the internal memory? (If I have read correctly, this gives least lag)

I think there's about 120mb free on a clean installation. Remember that in Gingerbread the official apps to sd function is better than in Froyo, and might be enough.
I need to spend more time to get other mods sorted out, but I thought it would be best to get the base rom out immediately.
altough I'm an AOSP fan this seems an excelent choice to go stock.
tks
Thanks for this, I was a big fan of your Froyo rom!
Looking forward to A2SD support.
Thanks a lot teppic74 for this ROM.
I'm using your Froyo ROM since months and will use this Gingerbread ROM as soon as the powersaving modpack will be available.
One mod that could be very useful is DATA2SD : [DEV][DATA2SD] More space (and more I/O) for your Desire (Updated/EXT4/Flashable ZIP). I'm using it with success on your Froyo rom.
Thanks for this release!
Only reason I'm on Sense is due to the lack of an aosp rom supporting 720p recording on the Desire, and this makes it nice knowing I don't have to get locked in with the new hboot etc.
Thanks!
i heard this rom just for development testing and not every day use, what thing are laggy/buggy in this rom thanks. i heard battery is terrible...
Cool & thanks! I'm also still on your Froyo A2SD... (in spite of being tempted many times by the earlier sense GB ports... I want something stable and stock-like)
I made a few home-made mods on your Froyo (install a few more apps to system, like the brilliant widgetsoid).
Anyway, as soon as your A2SD GB out, I'll try it

I've been reading a lot about the HTC release. There's nothing wrong with the HTC ROM... (Other than being unrootable and irreversible). If you want to discuss the HTC ROM though, there are other threads about it.

Sorry, to clarify: it's the original GingerBread Sense ROM from HTC that, if installed using the HTC release (RUU), will be unrootable and irreversible (at the moment - with all current tools).
All custom ROMs derived from it, are pre-rooted and reversible.
Can anyone let us know hows 720p recording and playback?

720p recording/playback works for me. That said, although tough lighting conditions, it seems *only imo, and I'm sure it;s just my eyes as doubt anything changed* it seems worse. Could just be me though.

Hi all
I decided to give you an update for the apparently much-used 2.09 ROM
This is fully rooted, kept completely stock with the following small mods,
mostly for powersaving and ease-of-use.
The following additions were made:
- Busybox + Latest su and SuperUser.apk.
- Still has A2SD+, a bit cleaner implementation this time. (Fully depends on whether or not you create an EXT partition, which can be EXT2/3 or 4.)
- OpenVPN and TUN
- Wifi module edited to make sure it never goes into standby.
- Symlinked /data/local/bootanimation.zip for easy bootanimation replacements.
- Cpufreq_interactive governor as default. This is slightly better than ondemand.
- Default undervolting by 75mV-100mV -> Major powersaving.
- UnionFS-FUSE overlay filesystem for /system. This makes /system writeable, and therefore allows you to use stuff like MetaMorph.
Thanks to tgreer for hosting my stuff!
Make sure you pick the correct radio to go with these two ROMs. It's a bad idea to use an older ROM with a newer radio, or vice-versa, seeing as these ROMs have updated RILs.
*updated* HTC 2.10 ROM
32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2 radio (recommended for 2.10 - new RIL)
Older HTC 2.09 ROM
32.43.00.32U_5.09.00.20 radio (recommended for 2.09)
is this de-odexed?
lol that was fast mate cheers will flash to ther halfs phone when she gets back lol
Santa, is that you????

Not atm.
It is kept close to stock. Custom ROMs later on will be deodexed, based on this.

Most probably not I guess (since the OTA also is odexed). But f*ck that, dex files just waste space on your data partition anyway.
excellent misdirection...a majority of us were following 42turkeys little run around and here you were waiting for us.
How about some credit's in the OP to the right people.
nice nice nice downloading now
That's fantastic.
Can anyone OC this Rom pls
YAY
Awesome mate!
Will take the plunge as soon as my DL is finished.
You've added exactly the bits I need (especially the OpenVPN).
Anyone tested this yet?
Fantastic up thanks
Anyone tried it yet lol

Power Button
Hey newbies
Dont be fooled like I was - at first.
This ROM disables the power button to turn it on from standby.
Perhaps this needs to be bolded or highlighted in the first post as it caused me a few minutes of concern.

i only know how to install winmo custom rom n android is really very very new to me.
one more last qn, i saw this "undervolt module and script by iscaela". i believe this is to undervolt e cpu when it is not running full hz to save batt but does it o/c e cpu when more computation power is needed?

yes, you can download unrevoked 3.21 which root hboot 0.93 onwards, no slcd black screen issue. i encountered black slcd on my desire yesterday. lol.
after which you can flash any roms via the recovery.
not really sure if goldcard is needed. i made a goldcard from the given 2gb microsd, not even sure it is done properly. it shows 1.3gb+ space.

U do not need goldcard if you are using unrevoked. I used the goldcard for my first Desire (amoled) and used only unrevoked for my 2nd Desire (slcd).
IMO, using unrevoked was much easier.
After u have root your Desire,
1. install ROM Manager from the Market.
2. Download any of the ROM that interest you and save to your sdcard.
3. Use ROM Manager(create ext3 if needed) and reboot into recovery
4. DO A NANDROID BACKUP then install ROM from sdcard. You can restore from backup if there is anything wrong
5. Reboot once done and please wait, as the new ROM requires to build the necessary cache.
Hope this help

does unrevoked works for AMOLED? or is it meant for SLCD only? Mine is the AMOLED bought in May this year.
sorry, really a newbie here. How to root my desire using unrevoked? I already download the unrevoked recovery flash tool and the HBOOT drivers for windows. from the unrevoked webpage, it says "We recommend installing the custom recovery image for all users who want rooted phones." where to get the custom recovery image?
After rooting, is my desire still on the same WWE Asia 2.2 OTA rom but with root enabled?
How do I unroot and get back my stock rom if need to seek for warranty at HTC?
Thread restored due to application of correct credit and updating ROM accordingly.
good to be back. after someone thinks that adding comment and if-else statement in a commonly used script make the script his. all people that i credited are in the first post (and deservely so).
anyway, will post an update to this rom soon.
Thank you very much.
I am so love the official roms.only because i love stable.
And now i found your rom.thank you for your work.
But when i flash it,I found,that you have some change. and iam sorry that i don't like it much.
Iam not means that is not good.only because i want a pure experiense.
also i can remove apks that was not from official roms.but i think you have some changes that i did't found .
so,i am think that:are you will post some roms that base on official rom,and only add "A2SD+ and ROOT"? Of course remove HBOOT and RECOVERY.
Can you do this for me? For someone like rom i say? I hope you can anderstand what i say.
Big sorry for my english.
Added a script as an attachment to this post that walks user through the removal of applications from /system without the user knowing how to use ADB.
I'm very happy with my purchase of the HTC Desire back in April this year, but have always thought battery life could be better and believe it should be the main aspect to improve with custom software.
I've read and experienced good things in regards to battery life with 2.29.405, so decided to make myself a ROM that's based entirely on it, with only removing applications I don't use, adding undervolt for even more battery saving and adding AP2SD which is essential due to the low internal memory.
I thought I would share it in case others may wish to try it out, I highly recommend the new radio.
With thanks to:
Paul - for rooting the HTC Desire
UnrEVOked - for making the above easier and finding ways around the new bootloaders
IEF and co - for the S-OFF hboot
Cyanogen - His Wiki on compiling all things Android and guides on how Android works
Richardtrip & snq- - helped a lot with questions I've had
Teppic74 - Getting me interested in ROM cooking, his modified AP2SD and scaling scripts
iscaela - Undervolt driver
dsixda - for the Kitchen
What you get:
ROM based on 2.29.405 WWE RUU posted here
Busybox (1.17.3)
Bash
Init.d support
NOT deodexed
AP2SD+ via EXT partition (Supports EXT2 and 3)
Read ahead value changed to 128, improves reading speed from the SDCard
Undervolt driver with -100mV on all freq's (Hex edited to support the Kernel from the RUU)
Moved hosts to /data to allow updating via AdFree Android application without the need to have S-OFF (do not use the symlink in AdFree Android)
Perflock disabled (Hex edited to support the Kernel from the RUU)
Updated applications
- REM GSD
Installation Guide
If you do not have an EXT2 or 3 partition on your SDCard, create one before going onto step 2
Copy the ROM .zip file to your SDCard
Reboot into recovery
If you've come from a different ROM, wipe data, ext, cache and dalvik-cache
Flash the .zip file
If you downloaded the ROM Editor script and wish to use it - do not reboot and proceed to step 7. Otherwise reboot as normal
Extract the contents of the ROM-Editor.zip
Run the ROM-Editor.bat file
Select option 1
Read the warning
Follow the prompts on screen
Once applications have been removed, press 3 to exit and reboot
If you've not already installed the recommended Radio, reboot into recovery and install the radio
Download link:

Recommended Radio - one that comes with the RUU
32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27
Addons (Attached to this post)
Reduce Undervolt - Reduces undervolt from 100mv to 75mv, flash if you're experiencing stability issues.
ROM Editor - Run ROMEditor.bat as administrator and follow the on screen instructions. Recommended to run after first flash.

Hi, I installed it 3 hours ago and I'm trying it. It's very fast at now (I put LauncherPro Plus)! So, some question for you:
1) Can I put SetCPU? It will work?
2) If i'd like to uninstall some features like facebook, footprints ecc can I do it?
Thanks in advance.
i waited this really thnx good work
just a question if i am not a fan of a2sd+ and i didnt make an sd ext
if i install this rom it will take more memory than the base rom or what ??
i mean in some roms if it's a2sd+ and u dont have ext after flashing the rom u find that the memory is very low and that's what i'm asking about now..

It's not a stupid question. According to the language menu it supports:

English Irish

Spanish
It doesn't contain a hboot upgrade.
You can use German via More Locale2 from the Market, failing that I can try and add German support. I'm surprised a WWE ROM doesn't list German.

1) SetCPU should work yes, this ROM doesn't support overclocking but will allow underclocking.
2) You can remove any applications you want by booting into recovery and removing the .apk and .odex file via adb shell.

It won't take any more memory than the base ROM. Nothing gets installed to the /data partition until you setup phone preferences via the setup wizard, install system application updates via the market or restore backups. Also due to the removal of peep etc, the ROM takes up less space on the /system partition.

I've never used mod install location so I can't say how well it works, I do know that:
1. Not everything can be forced to the SD Card
2. Some applications like flash, third party keyboards and applications with widgets you use, don't like being installed to the SD Card
In regards to the Mirror, does the multi upload link not provide you with more choices that RapidShare? Unfortunately I'm away until the weekend so there's not much I can do until I'm back.

Hi, I'm here again! Can I deodex your ROM with autodeodex from AmonRA? If I deodex it, then I can remove Application like facebook ecc simply from phone...but shall I remove HTC sense too?

Push the bootanimation.zip of your choice to /system/customize/resource, via adb. As its in /system you'll need to do via recovery, unless you're S-OFF and you know how to mount the system as R/W whilst phone is running.

I've rootexplorer, If I put the bootanimation.zip in SD and then with rootexplorer copy it in /system/customize/resource does it work? The phone is S-OFF.

Azrael X v5.0 available for download now! Enjoy!*
This post is not going to be able to be fully updated until tomorrow so don't pay any attention to it.

Azrael X v5.0
Well, after a break, a lot of new OTA updates and such, and a lot of patience from most of you...here it is! I apologize for the wait and hope you find this release worth it. I still have to upload pics and such, they will be here soon.
I consider this still to be a Beta (have yet to find anything on it that does not work) but you can use this as a daily driver because (like all the other Azrael ROMS before it) it is a modified OTA. If you do happen to have any problems with it, please let me know. A more finalized version will be coming out soon but I am using this as my daily driver and working flawlessly for me thus far.
Please enjoy, will update this first post soon to reflect more of the changed in the ROM.
Note: I highly recommend a full wipe (Data, cache, Dalvik, and SD:Ext) before installing. If not, enjoy your gamble!
The ROM:
-Made with the latest dsixda ROM Kitchen v0.166
-Stock Deodexed 4.24.651.1 (Fixed Netflix and more)

Azrael X v5.0 by Ricsim78
To install on your Evo:
1. Copy the ROM zip file to the root of your SD card.
2. Shut off your phone and boot into recovery.
3. Do a full wipe (Data, cache, Dalvik, SD Ext.) Do it twice to be sure if you want to!
4. Install the ROM. It should take a few minutes to install.
5. Reboot the phone. It should take a long time to start up the first time. Please be patient!
6. If all goes well, enjoy your new ROM!
7. If not, start over from step 2 after pulling your battery.
To install a custom kernel: Let it boot all the way into the ROM first and then reboot into recovery and wipe the cache and Dalvik. Then install the custom kernel and reboot. DO NOT install any MODS without letting the ROM load up without any addons first!
To install a theme: Let it boot all the way into the ROM first, then reboot into recovery and wipe the cache and Dalvik. Then install the theme and reboot.
How to backup and restore using Titanium backup Here is the method I use to backup my phone information before I wipe and install a new ROM
I backup my entire phone with a batch "Backup all user apps + system data"
Wipe and install the new ROM,
I open Titanium Backup (TB) and give it super user rights.
I hit "Updates?" in TB and make sure I am running the latest.
I hit "Problems?" in TB and make sure I am using Busybox 1.60
Hit menu and select batch
Select "Backup all new apps + newer versions of apps", if any.
Select "Restore missing apps with data"
Go over the list and make sure you are restoring only what you want
Hit run batch operation
After it completes, go back into TB and backup restore.
Restore contacts twice
Restore MMS twice
Restore Mail twice
If any of the 3 above do not take, do it again
Restart your phone
Verify mail, MMS, and contacts restored. If not, restore again.
Why Amon RA and not Clockwork recovery?
Clockwork does not wipe the Dalvik properly (if at all). I personally have had nothing but problems with both Clockwork and ROM manager
I have said countless times that if you use either of the above, it is at your own risk. Install Amon RA recovery and I bet any wiping/installing problems will go away.
If you already are using ROM manager, pick the option to install a custom recovery, choose Amon RA 1.8. If that option is greyed out, reinstall the latest Clockwork then install RA.
Note: Do not do a fix permissions with anything unless you need to, you can screw stuff up that way.
Trust me, the new ROM is devoid of problems (I have never tested a ROM this much before releasing it). If you experience any, it is either something you are doing wrong or incomplete wipes thanks to your recovery not doing it's job properly.
Which kernels work with this ROM?
Any that are designed for a Sense ROM. This includes:
Netarchy's
Kingclick's
Hero Over's
Ziggy's
HTC's
Which kernel do you recommend to use?
I cannot recommend a kernel for you because each EVO reacts different. The best for my phone can be the worse for yours.
You have to try the different ones available and pick the one that works best for you. What I do is start with their latest and work your way down until you find one that works well. Then stick with it.
This also goes for overclocking, SetCPU settings, etc.
With the new Hardware 0004 Evo phones, a custom kernel may or may not break the camera and video recording features. Make sure to test them before you head out.
Which themes work with this ROM?
Themes make your phone look nice but can also add problems to an otherwise smooth running ROM. You can use any theme you wish, but Nandroid first and if anything is broken, please do not blame the ROM as it is the theme that added the problem.
You definitely need to install a theme that works with a Gingerbread based ROM. DO NOT load an older theme (for older OTA's, for example 3.70, 3.30 or 3.29) as the framework files are different.
Always Nandroid before using a custom theme. Once you load up the theme, verify no problems are present that were not there before you installed the theme. If there is, keep the theme and either live with the problem, or fix it if you can. If not,be sure to let the maker of that particular theme aware that it is not working with Azrael ROM. They may be glad to help and you are helping them make their theme more compatible.
This one reserved for me as well...10 characters
time to load this baby.
I am currently uploading it, that is why the download link will be available soon. Sorry upload takes a while. It will be up within half an hour.
i feel like its a few hours before xmas, i cant wait!
Edit:
will the older Azrael themes work well with the 2.5?
Sorry guys for the confusion, I am trying to maximize my time and setup the post while uploading it, it will be available within 20 minutes. I will update the first post when it is ready.
woo woo, I was about to install 2.4 and now I can wait for 2.5!!

3.30.651.2 (and subsequently 3.30.651.3) is 100% designed for newer Evo manufactured in November.
These Evos are hardware number 0004 and have a different camera chip and some other changes to the framework of the ROMS to accommodate this new hardware. HTC threw us ROM makers a curve ball!
You can use 3.30.XXX.X on an older Evo, but you can experience the following problems (some of which I personally witnessed on my own 0003 Evo):
Fast battery drain
3rd party camera apps having trouble working
Speed descreased a bit. (My new Azrael ROM is faster than my new Omega ROM on my phone, though they are identical besides the base).

Ahhhh! And I was just going to ask you ric why the base change, my Evo is hardware #0003 too.
I have heard of reports of 0003 having the new camera chip
Has the 3.30 base been definitely pinpointed as the cause of the rapid battery drain? I trust you and your Rom that's why I am using it. I only ask because it seems as most devs here have updated their Rom to the new base and was curious what in the build would cause this? Thanks.

After I have tried a lot of ROMs for the HTC Desire, and each one of them was perfect in another way, there was one kind of ROM I couldn't find: a ROM which is as small as possible, with Sense, and Gingerbread, and as clean as possible.
First of all: I am not an experienced developer, such as LeeDroid, or Coolexe (by the way, thanks a lot guys, loved your ROMs, and used each one of them without any issues, so kudos for your hard work!).
I'm just a 15-year old boy, who wanted to create a ROM which is as small as possible, but keeping Sense. If you have things to say like 'Loser, why would I flash this ROM, there are dozens of other ROMs', don't say anything at all.
However, if you have tips, questions, or think you can help me with this ROM, don't hesitate, and feel free to post!
About this ROM:
-Based on Gingerbread RUU from HTC for HTC Desire (Bravo)
-Bananacakes awesome new kernel (0.4), build by Sibere (0.4a), running on 1GHz, OC'able to 1.2.
-Su + Superuser + Busybox included
-Optional A2SD
-Removed a lot of stuff, resulting this ROM to be less than 120MB in size!
-Kept Sense, but some apps are removed (such as Stocks, Footprints, and Facebook, which you can download from the market anyway)
-Works on Stock HBOOT, and it should also work on Data++ or Bravo Sense (please post your experience with these 2 HBOOTs)
So, if you are looking for a lightweight version of Sense and Gingerbread, this is the ROM you're looking for. It may contain bugs, and I can not be held responsible for any damage. If you tell me about the bugs, I could try to fix them, but don't think I'm an expert with Android development, but I'll see what I can do.
To do:
-TrackballWake
-Perhaps create a special update.zip for some popular apps (filemanager, terminal, DSPManager)
-Fix the bootanimation (just a black screen at the moment, trying to find out how to fix it), the ROM boots just fine though
Removed:
-Apps you can install from the market (Facebook, Gmail, Flash, Flickr)
-Apps which have better alternatives (HTC Twitter)
-Apps which bugs a lot of users, even when they're not being used (HTC Stocks)
-Apps I simply don't like or use (Friendstream, Footprints)
-Apps of which I can't even come up with a reason why they would be installed by default (Polaris Office, if I'm right about the name)
-Live wallpapers which are pretty useless in my opinion (Smoke Wallpaper, Music Visualizations)
-HTC Sense Live Wallpaper, and the normal wallpaper is replaced
-Almost all ringtone/notification sounds, except for one in each category (the default ones)
Without further ado, here are the downloads:
Click here for the Non-A2SD build (version 1.5)
HBOOTs with 5MB cache won't work! Stock HBOOT or Bravo Sense HBOOTs will work fine, since they have a bigger cache (thanks Ronijs19!) For cMTD users: /system is 163MB in this build.
Click here for the A2SD build (version 1.5)
After you have installed the A2SD build, download a terminal emulator from the market and execute the following commands:
su
a2sd cachesd
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Your apps and the Dalvik Cache will be stored on EXT from now on.
Changelog:
1.5
-Updated kernel to 0.5 by Bananacakes
-Restored original framework (= original skin)
-Restored fonts (Ubuntu fonts took more space...)
1.4
New build of Bananacakes kernel, by Sibere, running on 1GHz, OC'able to 1,2.
Bootanimation is either ANDROID now, or still a black screen, bit confused about that due to a lot of builds..
New font, Ubuntu.
Also removed alarm and notifications tones except the default ones.
1.3
-Removed LiveWallpapers (every LWP except HTC Sense)
-Removed Mode10Wallpapers (the HTC Sense LWP)
-Replaced dock (used the one from the Slate theme for Sense 2.1)
-Replaced the default Sense wallpaper for a custom one
-ROMs will be uploaded onto our own server from now on, which means: no waiting, and direct links (thanks DonUber!)
1.2
-Removed FriendStream (Twitter and Facebook were removed anyway, so Friendstream was unusable)
-Removed all ringtones except for 1 (saved about 2MB)
-Swapped the ucsh00d_c.ttf font for DroidSans.ttf, saving about 3.5MB
-Swapped the gcsh00d-hkscs.ttf font for DroidSans.ttf, saving about 1MB
-Removed some images in /media/resources, saved about 500KB, since the images are never used in Android anyway, AFAIK
-Modified updater-script with some ui_prints to inform about the progress
-Bananacakes new kernel (0.4) implemented
-Two versions from now on: with A2SD, and without A2SD. In the version without A2SD, you can insert any A2SD script you would like (both versions have init.d support). Recommended HBOOTs are Stock or Data++ or Bravo Sense. I have only tested Stock though, so if you use another HBOOT, please post your results.
1.1
-Init.d Script Support
-A2SD (Darktremor Script) installed by default, should be working

Thanks to:
-DonUber, a good friend IRL, who always gives me tips and ideas for improving the ROM, thanks a lot mate!
-Koush, for his Anykernel Updater!
-Bananacakes, for his awesome kernel!
-Ronijs19, for tips and testing different HBOOTs.
-You, and every other user who uses this ROM!
Enjoy, and don't hesitate to ask questions or report bugs!
If you like my ROM, and you don't have a DropBox account yet, consider creating one by using my referral link, giving both of us an additional 250MB: Click here!
This is the theme that is being used in Flux 1.3 and higher. If you download Flux 1.2, you won't have this skin!
Thx dude, gonna try it.
Which base did you use? Stock Sense GB Rom?
(what? I'm the first one? Yupiiiii)
Yes, this ROM is based on the RUU, released by HTC on HTCdev.com. It is an official Gingerbread, which was a bit slimmed down by HTC, and I removed even more bloatware.
EDIT: I'm trying another way to get A2SD working, give me half an hour
EDIT2: A2SD working, get 1.1 now from the first post! Wipe recommended.

Nice, i have removed friend stream widget (hate it).
If more people want to see other widgets/apps removed, I could make a list, and also remove that apps if there are enough people who would like to remove it. Aside from that, I'll also make a script soon which allows you to remove even more apps.
Thanks for your response!
Hello.
Always nice to see both new developers in here, and continued ROM development for the Desire.
May I ask, are there any benefits to this ROM for someone like me who hasn't S-Off'd and just has the stock partition?

If you don't have S-OFF, this ROM is perfect for you, if you want your phone to be as clean as possible, and need space for apps. This ROM uses A2SD by default, and in combination with a 512MB/1024MB EXT-partition, you don't have to worry anymore about the space for apps (a Desire without A2SD has only 137MB on NAND for apps).
Aside from that, this ROM is smaller than an original one. The GingerBread RUU by HTC was already slimmed down, and was 150MB. I removed even more bloatware, or unnecessary apps (such as HTC Stocks, which keeps running and bugs a lot of users), resulting in a ROM which is only 120MB. Even CyanogenMod is 90MB, so this ROM is really lightweight, since it has only approx. 30MB difference with an AOSP ROM.
In other words: no tweaks and modifications, just a ROM meant to be as stable and fast as possible, and without the bunch of apps most of the users won't use anyway, or they have alternative apps.

The skin is the same as a normal Sense ROM for the Desire (so it's just as the stock ROM). The performance is really good, I haven't noticed any lag or anything like that yet, and it is running pretty stable until now.
I'll post tomorrow evening about the battery consumption, as the most recent build I made was about 2 hours ago, so I couldn't really test it yet.
I will make a skin though, and I hope to finish it in about a week.
Ok thanks....
So after boot and A2SD+ initiates, how much memory would I have free?
After you have installed the ROM, and have an EXT-partition, all your apps which you install will be placed on the EXT-partition. This means the available space is the same as the size of the EXT-partition.
My Desire said I had 80MB free after a flash, because the Dalvik Cache is still on the NAND of the phone. I also moved that to the EXT by installing a Terminal Emulator, and executing the commands:
su
a2sd cachesd
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
After which your phone will reboot. No matter how much apps you install now, your phone will always say you have 137MB available, because everything is being stored on the EXT-partition on your SD-card.
To use A2SD:
Boot in recovery, and partition your SD-card with an EXT-partition (512MB or 1024MB should be enough). Keep in mind partitioning removes all your data and formats your SD-card. Then copy the ROM ZIP to the root of the SD by using the USB Storage Function in recovery, and install it by using recovery. Then reboot, and A2SD will be enabled and your phone will boot in less than 5 minutes (only the first time, after the first boot it will startup much faster). During boot you'll get a black screen, it is completely normal. To use the EXT-partition for Dalvik Cache also, use the 2 commands I mentioned earlier in this post, and you should be ready

I appreciate the efforts, but I am actually very experienced in that sense. I know perfectly well the A2SD commands and how it works All I wanted to know was the 137mb figure
PS: It isn't correct to say "No matter how much apps you install now, your phone will always say you have 137MB available". The memory will still go down even with A2SD+ installed and davlik cache to sd. It just doesn't go down as much.
Hi Chaos,
Why not just use a2sd script from Oxygen rom? I'm using it on all roms including CM7, MIUI. Leaving dalvik cache on nand with cm7r2 hboot. Much smaller then dt version.
Is your rom deodexed or odexed?
Some proposals:
-add new kernel from bananacakes (modified original GB Sense kernel, sources also available in post).
-Please add trackpad2wake also.
And kind request, what is removed or what is left inside?
Thanks!

You're right, it does go down, but since your apps, the dalvik cache and the cache are being stored on the EXT-partition, the NAND is almost untouched by apps I think. Not sure though, I don't know a lot about the A2SD scripts.

Trackpad2Wake is a function I also used a lot myself, so I will implement it soon
The new kernel by Bananacakes: if I see positive results by other users, and people like it, I will build it in.
And the ROM is deodexed
About the Oxygen A2SD script: I'll see what I can do, and maybe implement a feature to choose the desired script for A2SD.
Thanks a lot for your interest guys, I really appreciate it!
your rom is a perfect! dsp manger?
I'll see how much space it takes, and I'll either make a flashable ZIP to install it automatically, or if there are lots of people interested in it, I'll implement it in the ROM itself

You're right, it does go down, but since your apps, the dalvik cache and the cache are being stored on the EXT-partition, the NAND is almost untouched by apps I think. Not sure though, I don't know a lot about the A2SD scripts.
Thanks a lot for your interest guys, I really appreciate it!

You are very welcome. I will be sure to try this at some point in the next few days, thanks
Just one thing.... if you are really wanting to attract people in and get them downloading, I'm certain having a screenshot would help with that. And maybe update the OP with some of the information like the above ^, about what is removed etc etc.
Good luck Thanks

I don't think its implemented in the ROM itself, but now its possible just to install the CM7 mod as an apk file.....

I have some work to do for school, which should be finished in about 15 minutes, and then I'll update the OP and add screenshots of the current interface.
In about 1 week I'll release an update with a really nice skin (in my opinion), and I think that will make the ROM a bit more unique
