Thanky buddy, I got it all planned for tomorrow, unrevoked, then MoDaCo :)

edit: What's this about formatting the memory stick correctly for A2SD+ though?

You need to put the EXT partition at the end of the card, the Desire can't read EXT4 either so it has to be EXT3 but if you have a Class 6 card, it's just as fast as running apps from internal memory :D

I also use AmonRA R5 as well, it can fix permissions and fix the filesystem permissions on the AppsToSD partition which Clockwork cannot yet

The Desire CAN read and write EXT4 partitions, who said it doesn't? It's the ROM you choose which needs to have EXT4 support, most (if not all) do. Leedroid is all I know of that does not.

I've been using EXT4 for ages.

Clockwork mod had trouble backing up and restoring EXT4 though so another reason to use AmonRA.

What ROM are you using?

Ooh, an HTC Desire thread. What a lovely phone it is. So happy I got it a few weeks ago (luckily the store had just got some in), though Vodafone's 2.2 update almost ruined it for me - some issue with Sense crashing on startup - couldn't get to the settings to clear the problematic data. Decided to factory reset it, and set everything up again, what a dream. I'd probably be more annoyed if everything important wasn't basically in the cloud.

Noticed today I have an SLCD version instead of AMOLED (which my housemate has). No complaints though.

I'm using OpenDesire but I'm a bit peeved that the developer is thinking of changing the launcher to the Samsung version, and I like my Android to be as stocked as possible, similar to what I drive to work :p . That said, I'm close to cleening up the ROM I'm flashing to my phone, with all the icons replaced and hopefully a new framework (though that it still far away from reality).

I love my Desire :wub: !

I've thought about using OpenDesire but never really wanted to flash it. And now that he is thinking about using the ****ty Samsung version, I really don't care for it.

I'd much rather cook my own ROM or use something like LeeDroid.

I looked into rooting, but it apparently seemed pretty tricky for 2.2? Any noob guides?

I'd rather much like to run the Vanilla OS, I cba with custom roms.

It's actually VERY simple.

http://www.unrevoked.com/ is pretty pain free, easier on Linux but not too hard on Windows.

As for a Vanilla 2.2 ROM i'm using OpenDesire nice plain ROM that allows some pretty good overclocking too via SetCPU :)

Agree with you there Singh and really hope he doesn't got the way of porting the Galaxy S to it, or if he does, release it as a seperate ROM.

Hehe Scirwode, thought that was you on there ;)

I seen you in the OpenDesire topic ;) I'm going with MoDaCo though to keep the Sense UI and I used the 'cooker' as the author calls it to customize my rom myself.

    • A Warhammer 40K racing game and a chess roguelike are free to claim on the Epic Games Store by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The Epic Games Store has returned to its standard giveaway procedures after weeks of mystery freebies. The latest drop is replacing last week's Rogue Waters and Songs of Conquest games and has brought in a double giveaway offering Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks and The Ouroboros King. As always, the game is yours to add permanently to your Epic Games Store library within the next seven days. From the duo, Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks lands from developer Caged Element, and it's a racing game that was only released last year. The title has you piloting Ork buggies, tanks, and aircraft modeled after the popular tabletop miniatures. The focus is on multiplayer mayhem, offering multiple game modes that have you fighting other players as everyone tries to survive and get across finish lines or destroy mechs. Crossplay support between PC and consoles has now arrived as part of a free update, too, giving a boost to matchmaking times for this multiplayer-focused title. If racing carnage isn't your thing, then The Ouroboros King offers tactics. The indie title is a mashup of chess and standard roguelike experience, letting players create their own armies to defeat an enemy faction, all on the familiar checkered board. There is a procedurally generated map, pieces with special abilities, relics that bend the game's rules to make overpowered builds, and more. The newly available Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks and The Ouroboros King giveaways on the Epic Games Store are set to run until June 11, giving PC gamers seven days to claim the latest offer. Once this closes out, a new freebie will take its place on the same day. Don't forget that mobile gamers can check out the Epic Game Store's weekly giveaways on Android and iOS to grab a freebie there as well.

    • The most consequential argument in technology right now is not about which model is smartest or which chip is fastest. It is about whether the entire enterprise is a generational revolution or the largest financial bubble ever inflated — and the unsettling answer, increasingly, is that it may be both at once.,,,, https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318138/20260610/ai-revolution-ai-bubble-trillion-dollar-question-splitting-wall-street-silicon-valley.htm This is a very good read.  For what it is worth, I agree with the answer to the question.

    • LibreWolf 151.0.4-1 by Razvan Serea LibreWolf is an independent “fork” of Firefox, with the primary goals of privacy security and user freedom. It is the community run successor to LibreFox. LibreWolf is designed to increase protection against tracking and fingerprinting techniques, while also including a few security improvements. This is achieved through our privacy and security oriented settings and patches. LibreWolf also aims to remove all the telemetry, data collection and annoyances, as well as disabling anti-freedom features like DRM. LibreWolf features: Latest Firefox — LibreWolf is compiled directly from the latest build of Firefox Stable. You will have the the latest features, and security updates. Independent Build — LibreWolf uses a build independent of Firefox and has its own settings, profile folder and installation path. As a result, it can be installed alongside Firefox or any other browser. No phoning home — Embedded server links and other calling home functions are removed. In other words, minimal background connections by default. User settings updates Extensions firewall: limit internet access for extensions. Multi-platform (Windows/Linux/Mac/and soon Android) Community-Driven Dark theme (classic and advanced) LibreWolf privacy features: Delete cookies and website data on close. Include only privacy respecting search engines like DuckDuckGo and Searx. Include uBlockOrigin with custom default filter lists, and Tracking Protection in strict mode, to block trackers and ads. Strip tracking elements from URLs, both natively and through uBO. Enable dFPI, also known as Total Cookie Protection. Enable RFP which is part of the Tor Uplift project. RFP is considered the best in class anti-fingerprinting solution, and its goal is to make users look the same and cover as many metrics as possible, in an effort to block fingerprinting techniques. Always display user language as en-US to websites, in order to protect the language used in the browser and in the OS. Disable WebGL, as it is a strong fingerprinting vector. Prevent access to the location services of the OS, and use Mozilla's location API instead of Google's API. Limit ICE candidates generation to a single interface when sharing video or audio during a videoconference. Force DNS and WebRTC inside the proxy, when one is being used. Trim cross-origin referrers, so that they don't include the full URI. Disable link prefetching and speculative connections. Disable disk cache and clear temporary files on close. Disable form autofill. Disable search and form history...and more. LibreWolf 151.0.4-1 changelog: Upstream release, see the Firefox 151.0.4 Release Notes Notable changes: DRM now uses a per-site permission, instead of allowing all requested sites access, when DRM is enabled.

    • Stopped using Windows as my main workflow. Migrated completed to Linux. Been happier than a clam without a single issue nor windows annoyance. Leaving Windows has shown me the light at the end of the tunnel, or rather I went through the tunnel and I'm already at the light.
