Recovery - HTC Desire S

hi, What recovery should I use of Clockworkmod Recovery or 4EXT Recovery?

I'd recommend 4 EXT myself, it's based on Cwm code base but has much better support on our device

+1 to that. It also shows you battery charge level (important to check before you flash a radio for example) and partition table sizes. You can also theme it! Not really useful but a nice extra.
I also like the fact it names your NANDroid backups with the ROM name and version instead of just 13-10-11-14-25. Much easier to see what you are restoring back to instead of trying to remember which backup 13-10-11-14-25 was!

Use 4EXT , best and also supported by ROM Manager 4.5+

Been with cwm since day one.
The original & the best, good support & the base for ext4 anyway.

[UNOFFICAL] [CRACKFLASHER] [ROM] CM7 Build #29

So the crackflashers have done it again - Gingerbread is now on the Desire / Bravo
Based on CM 7 Source
Thanks to Cyanogen, #teamdouche and @gridlock32404 (Thatguy32404) - These are unoffical builds based on their code as such..
Code:
These builds have nothing extra added, they are just like the usual
"nightly" builds. There is no support provided, this is just a hobby and
I thought I would share. If you don't know how to flash a unofficial build,
don't want possible bugs or don't like living on the edge, go away!
Do a nandroid backup first!
OK so here is how to get it up and running:
Step 1 - Download the latest build from http://www.crackflashers.com look in the builds folder for the latest file - The build will increment by 1 each time there is a new build so if there is one there greater than b#29 download it << In case I don't get the thread updated at the same time
Step 2 - Download the Gingerbread apps from NEEDS UPDATED TO POINT TO DESIRE / BRAVO. crackflashers.com/ace/[/URL] look in the google-apps folder for the file gingerbread-gapps-12302010.zip
Step 3 - Place all these files onto your sd card reboot into recovery
Step 4 - Flash the files using the install zip from sdcard option (do the rom first then the gapps)
Step 5 - Reboot phone and enjoy the Gingerbread goodness

This is the first build that I actually made for the desire so to say we don't exactly know what other additions made outside the source/gingerbread will or won't work. The only way to try is to make a nandroid backup after you flash this in and try it
Ps. The new recovery image is not supported in rom manager so everything will need to be done in the recovery manually even thought the code of the recovery is made by koush it is not an official release by him at all, just built from it. it is the only recovery currently that can handle ext 4 /system partion that cm7 source is based on.
You will not be able to restore a pre-cm7 source build on this recovery or flash a pre cm7 rom on it either (hence the backup recovery.img if you decide to go back) you can backup and restore any cm7 source rom on this recovery
Yes the new recovery is needed to flash gapps and newer updates as they become availible.
This is on the list of many devices I am compiling for. Currently g2, mt4g, evo4g, droid, desire hd, desire and sometimes the n1. If you can't seem to find an answer to something there is a good chance you will find it in one of those sections. Just look for posts from me

For those having problems with Gapps on newer htc phones like g2, mt4g and desire hd try the new gapps I have posted up at http://gridlock.euroskank.com and grab the EMMC ones
Everyone else can grab the MTD gapps
This should remove having to mount /system in recovery but run fix permissions in the advanced section of the recovery just in case

There isn't any nightlies that I know of! Cwm3 is the recovery that is in the cm7 source code and it builds a recovery for the device that you compile for. Only when someone changes something in the recovery does it change

Once you flash a cm7 source based rom the system becomes ext4, other roms/cm6 are only ext 4 so in order for the /system to mount in recovery for making nandroid backups or to flash anything it needs to have a recovery that can support ext4, which currently is the recovery posted with these builds which is based on clockworkmod recovery because koush hasn't released a official recovery yet (also since it is unofficial rom manager does not support it, so everything has to be done manually in the recovery)

Thank you for the link, and one other question, will rooting/flashing it affect the way I have my phone set up and keeping all of my stuff? Like is it restoring my phone?
I would say go for the legendary cyanogen mod first. See the power of android first, realize what aspects are important to you, then maybe try a different rom. Or just stay with CM like so many 100s of thousands of others

1. Changing roms wipe your phone? 2. Whats CM?
EDIT---
Dumb question('s), question has been revised in the first post.
Here's a quick glossary:
ROM: essentially an operating system for the phone. CM7, Miui, Weapon, Eaglesblood, are all ROMs.
Recovery: Recovery mode, accessed by holding power and volume-down while booting up the device. Most notible for ClockworkMod Recovery (abbreviated CWM), a custom recovery mode that lets you do lots of modding-related things.
Wipe: Formatting various parts of the phone's memory, necessary when installing new things. For a run-of-the-mill flash (anything other than a new ROM) just wipe Cache and Dalvik, the latter is under the Advanced option in CWM. For a new ROM, do the above but also wipe Data (factory reset) and System (under Mounts and Partitions in CWM)
Kernel: In the context of phones, this is a system change that lets you undervolt and/or overclock the CPU. Lets you save battery and increase performance respectively.
NVFlash: A tool used to flash CWM onto the phone.
Root: Access to the entire phone's system as opposed to being locked out to part of it as is the default. Lets you run special Root-only apps.
The Android Development board here is pretty definitive as far as roms go, the only significant one not hosted here is Whitehawkx's MIUI port which IMO is better than the one here.

My revised question still stands, what is the BEST ROM out there if there is one, and what is the BEST kernel out there if there is one.

For me the stability of the phone is the most important, so the appearance of it will come second. I am using a rooted build of gingerbread 2.3.3 and so far it has been working flawlessly, my phone before I flashed it with the rooted ROM gave me like at least 1 problem a day, so far I am clear and it has almost been 24hr. If it stays its course I am not looking into anymore ROM's, if it does show the same signs I will search for the next best ROM.
But again, I appreciate your input, I am keeping an eye on the ROM you named and a few other, cheers
If you need A2DP then go with Weapon, it's based on 2.3.3 and everything works great.

What is A2DP?
a2dp is the ability to stream bluetooth in stero without it music over bluetooth is a no go but you can still use BT for phone calls it will only be in mono. You can still use your phone for music but you have to use this thing called a wire I dont know apparently back in the day you had to use this wire to listen to music throught headphones and speakers. Strange right? Anyway all ROMS that are not 2.3.3 based or 2.2.2 based Like CM7 or eaglesblood that are 2.3.5 do not have A2DP it has something to do with Nivida not releasing the drivers or something like that. It is ashames because Eaglesblood 1.08 is the best ROM ever but it will never be finished same as cm7 till Nivdia starts cooperating. It really was hard going back to wired headphones but eaglesblood is definitly worth it. Hope this helps

It's cool, I have the same question.

[Q] kernel vs ROM vs theme

what is the difference between the three? are they suppose to be combined? which one is most useful for the sensation
The kernel is a small file that you flash that pretty much runs the phone... And tells it how to run. A Rom is the actual OS on the phone.. it's everything you see. A theme just changes the look of the Rom... Usually wallpaper and menu color etc....
I guess if I had to compare it to a car... Kernel = engine
Rom = car
Theme = paint job

LOL, a ton of answers to that, most folks have personal preferences. It's the most often asked question.
I guess the first question is Sense or AOSP based. This is a more fundamental change than the Theme. Using the car analogy, 4 x 4 with loads of bling vs a pruned down sports car. ;-)) Then again I use CM7 as I wanted a lighter (ASOP) system.
Best advice is to flash a few ROMs and decide for yourself. They are all good, just some do bits better than others. Just remember to take plenty of Nandroid backups so you can revert back if needed.
EDIT: Meant to add that any ROM you install will also include a "base" kernel. So install a ROM and it's good to go.

If you want a non-Sense ROM, I think that CM7 is the best, very smooth, stable. CM9 with Ice Cream Sandwich should be out soon too. I use bricked kernel, but faux is very good too.
If you want a Sense (3.0 or 3.5) ROM, InsertCoin or Revolution HD are both very good, pick one, try and decide ;-)
so when you take nandriod backup for your current ROM, how do get back to it for extraction? and how do do you back up 2 ROMs without deleting the other? where do the back ups go (SD card or internal)?

Hi,
Nandroid backups are stored on your sd card in /sd card/clockworkmod/backup.
You can make as many as your sd card can hold.
In order to get a ROM back,simply "restore" it from within CWM.
firmware vs ROM
sorry for stupid question, although I wanna ask what is the difference between firmware and ROM? is flashing the firmware the same thing as flashing ROM?
Firmwear is kinda like what runs the Rom, if you don't have the correct firmwear your Rom won't work or bootloop. So its VERY important to flash the correct firmware with your Rom. If its ICS based Rom the firmweare is 3.32. That will need to be changed if you want a GB based Rom. Just make sure when flashing its the same firmweare as you have. Usually if your unsure the firmware is available to flash with the Rom. I hope this helps! Have fun!
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G
this is a bit of topic, but when you flash firmware , you actually flash the kernel, right? you get ftf package. then after unpacking it there is a kernel.sin(.img etc) file which you flash to your phone. I am new to this stuff so I wanna be sure how it really works
Yes that's right and for Rom Most any Rom will INCLUDE,a good base kernel so you can flash the firmweare, flash the Rom and be good. Hope this helps.

[GUIDE] How to run more then 1 roms at same time? MAX=5

How to Dual Boot Multiple ROMs on Your Android Phone
Whether you want to test out a new ROM for daily use or just keep an eye on one that's being developed, you can run multiple ROMs on your rooted Android phone with BootManager, and pick which one to use when you start it up.
Having multiple ROMs to choose from is great, but flashing and re-flashing new ROMs just to try them out is annoying. If you want to try one out but don't want to fully flash it over your current ROM, BootManager will let you flash it (and up to three others) to your SD card, so you can try multiple ROMs at once. The ROMs you run from your SD card won't be quite as fast, and not every ROM out there will work, but it should give you a chance to try out most other ROMs without fully flashing them.
Right now the app is officially supported on the original Motorola Droid, Droid Incredible, HTC Thunderbolt, HTC Vision, HTC EVO 4G, HTC Inspire 4G, HTC Desire, and the HTC Desire HD. It may work on other phones, though, they just aren't officially supported yet.
Note: This tutorial contains some pretty advanced stuff, and we don't recommend it if you're unfamiliar with rooting and flashing ROMs. If you're just starting out, check out how to root your Android phone and how to flash Android ROMs before moving onto something like this.
Step One: Flash a Second ROM
Before you do anything, make a nandroid backup of your current ROM with ROM Manager or through your recovery module. If anything goes wrong, you can always restore from this backup to get things back to the way they were.
To set up BootManager, just download and install it from the Market, and start it up. You'll also want to grab a ROM of your choice and save the zip file on your SD card.
When you first start up BootManager, it'll prompt you to back up your boot.img, which you should do before installing any ROMs. Once you've done that, head to "Install ROMs". Pick the zip file from your SD card containing the ROM you want to flash, and check all three boxes: Wipe System, Wipe Data, and Wipe Cache. Let it do its thing (which will take awhile). When you're done, it will give you the option of booting into your new ROM. Hit Done; we aren't ready to boot into it just yet.
Step Two: Install Google Apps and Other ROM Add-Ons
Most ROMs don't come with Google's copyrighted apps, like Gmail, the Market, and others. This is a problem, since when you boot into your new ROM you need BootManager to function if you ever want to boot out of it, and it won't work unless you're signed into the Android Market. Luckily, there's an easy fix (note: if you know your ROM comes with Google Apps installed, you can skip this step).
Download the Google Apps zip file for the ROM you just installed and go back to BootManager. Hit Install ROMs. This time, pick Google Apps' zip file, and use the same slot that you used in step one. Leave all three "wipe" boxes unchecked this time. When it's done, booting into that slot will take you to the original ROM, but with the Google apps installed.
If you want to install a theme or other zip-based mod in the future, you can do that using this method too. Just remember: if you're flashing a new ROM, check all three "wipe" boxes, but if you're just installing an add-on to a ROM, don't check any of them.
Step Three: Switch Between ROMs
To boot into one of your other ROMs, just head into BootManager and choose "Boot Installed ROM". It'll show you a list of ROMs you have installed on your device, and after choosing one of them it will reboot into that ROM. BootManager will come installed on each of your other ROMs as well, and as long as you're signed into the Android Market on that ROM, you can boot into it from there as well and switch back to your main ROM.
That's it! You can flash up to five ROMs at a time, so you'll never be bored by one measly operating system. Hit the link to download BootManager.
BootManager is a $2.99 download for Android 2.1 and up. See the Market page below for officially supported devices.

Need advice: Google apps for MIUI 2.4.20 (Gingerbread)

Hi all,
I'm trying to give my phone a refresh after those 2 or 3 years it has served me. It started to behave a little laggy lately and also the battery begun to dye away rather quickly, so I bought a new battery today and decided to do a clean re-install of everything.
The Gingerbread MIUI (1.12.23) was by far the best rom for this phone and it was running very smoothly. Definitely better then any later MIUI I ever tried. So I found this MIUI 2.4.20 zip file, which I thought is what I'd like to flash and use now.
If someone of you kindly could direct me towards an fitting flashable zip with the additional Google apps, that would be awesome. I definitely make some good use of those Google apps.
Thanks.

Oh yeah, and do you think, that a lowering responsiveness of the phone could be a result of the battery not supplying enough power anymore? Like a constant undervolt?

Hey man thanks for the idea! I have installed MIUI 2.4.20 today and I will definitely keep it. It has all that I need, runs smooth with about 400 MB free RAM and the photo quality is great.
To answer your GApps question: go here, download and flash gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip or gapps-gb-20110828-newtalk-signed.zip, whichever you prefer - both are fine.
Also if you like sweep2wake this kernel will provide it. I am not advertise my work but I flashed it and it is fine.
Another advice: the MIUI installation script will format your system partition as ext3 so if you have 4EXT recovery, reboot to it and convert (NOT format) your system partition to ext4
