After updating to Android 2.3 official OTA - Desire HD General

Hi guys
After updating to long awaited Android 2.3 gingerbread, what are the difference people have noticed in changing from android froyo 2.2?
All what were the pro & cons in your mind.
I have noticed that my WiFi keeps disconnecting by itself & also acceloerometer is not functioning properly. I.e games like teeter are not playable anymore.
Anyone else experience this? Please give ur views & feedback.
Thanks in advance

2.3 absolutly drinks battery if you leave wifi on but not connected. Wasn't an issue on the original stock rom. Regretting installing, should have just rooted and gone down the custom rom route.

There's already a thread about changes here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1083518

Yeh my WiFi connection is keep loosing connection & its really annoying. Should have left it to 2.2 man.
May be should have gone down the custom Rom root too.
Is there anyway we desire HD holders cam get sense 3.0 Rom on official HTC 2.3 Rom

Confirming the WiFi disconnecting issue. Moreover, I have both data and WiFi (if connected) icons in statusbar now, which is weird.

[Q] General Optimization of Froyo

I'm looking for some sound advice on how to keep Froyo running peppy on my phone. I just got the Froyo update and want to optimize it.
These are some basics for keeping android running fast:
Turning off animations
Using a task killer or not using a task killer (doesn't seem to make a big difference)
Keeping unnecessary apps to a minimum
Turning off live wallpapers.
Reviewing how your phone syncs
Here's my questions
I never cleared or cleaned my SD card when I installed Froyo. Should I do that?
How often should I power off and power on the phone. Any suggestions?
Anything else I can do to keep the phone snappy?
My phone:
HTC Legend (not rooted)
Sense UI
Android 2.2 Froyo
Install custom Rom + kernel set CPU.

yeah, uh, how do we do that?
This is so nooby, I found it before but I tried and tried and tried and seem to can't find it no longer.
How do you enable animations? It got disabled somehow. I'm just wondering, don't plan to turn them on, but unanswered questions really freaking bug me, especially when i know I've solved the answer before.

Gingerbread Installed!

Ok, i just received the OTA 2.3.3 update for my Desire Z.
Doesn't look like too many changes.
Android 2.3.3
Sense 2.1
Anything to look out for??
How can I get the update I'm on simple mobile can someone post a like to the update
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
If you want the offical 2.3 update, you have to wait for your carrier to push it to you OTA.
If you have root, however, there are alot of 2.3.3 and 2.3.4 builds that you can flash.
I'm just curious if OTA shows for all guys who have installed clean Gingerbread Test ROM.
Do messages still display in the wrong order with stock htc sms app?
Sent from my Htcclay's SuperCM7 G2 using XDA App
Messages are sorted fine, at least on my phone. Which is curious, since usually java+locales+sorting is a kind of combination that screws things up for me
Only negative thing to say about this release (besides being awfully late) is that GPS reception is bad (still). It could be HW issue though.
Best Regards,
- A nearly happy HTC Vision user
I updated. Some things are good:
New screen with app, wifi connection speed up, galery works fine
Some thing not good:
Phone restart, very often sense restart, gps problems with turn on and fix pos

If you're on simple mobile, then you're in the US and probably have a G2. Then this update doesn't apply to you

I believe MrGaraks version is best

Sent from my HTC Desire HD using xda premium
Freshly Sqeezed FTW. MrGaraks does wonders! miss MIUI! lol...
I tried a 1.7.15 official MIUI and seemed a bit laggish. I like MIUI style but i want a perfectly smooth rom, i hate lags
Suggestions? Sci-MIUI or Freshly Squeezed?
there are no major diffference between all of the dhd miui roms here. the differences are only optical and/or minor optimizations/customizations.
regarding lags and battery time it basically does not matter which miui custom rom you are using.
as far as i know no one of the miui cursom rom devs here is really changing anything on the original miui. or changes are only additional scripts for tweaking some parameters or including a customiuzation mod or a different kernel.
there is far less magic than many users might think.
mr.garaks freshly squeezed miui is a very good rom. the best about this rom is mr.garak himself because he is very fast at helping.
i cannt talk about rd miui (sorry if it is wrong, not sure about the name) by dekky as i didn't tested it. but judging from his changelist he also didn't changed much significant. so his rom should also work very good..
though, some of the tweaks one of us applies to his rom could make trouble for some users or sometimes it is simply a coincidence. try them out and where you feel most comfortable that you should keep. there is no real best miui rom.
I'm on newest official with supercharger and kernelizer and oc.. INCREDIBLE SPEED i just had to bold it

I personally use the official released from "MIUIAndroid.com". That way I have a better idea of what's been done to my ROM, and I know that random tweaks haven't been done.
For issues regarding lag. I use LordModUE Kernel. Whether or not it actually makes a difference or if it's just the placebo effect I do not know. But I know that I enjoy the experience more with LordModUE.
Just my 2 cents.

@Arktihx : i fully understand you. that's one of the reasons why i started doing my own miui rom
i have a quite detailed change over stock list. and if this is not enough i am willing to pinpoint the changes. i think this should every dev do.

Runnymede camcorder

Hello to all,
it's long time I'm using Android on my HD2 and I'm very satisfied using it. I've tried all versions but I never find the optimum rom, all have some defects that don't permit to have the FINAL version. Now I'm using the Haldric sense 3.5 , it's almost perfect except few things :
- camcorder lag
- native wired tethering
- wi-fi tethering
- internet pass-through
Is there any chance to see these issues solved on sense 3.5 or should I revert back to sense 2.1?

camcorder records the video stretched
I installed the update on January 4, the camcorder records the video stretched. Use the options to record and nothing. It looks stretched.
We expect a solution soon.

why not trying other ROM? or another browser app.
Only other MIUI ROM with jellybean that functions is hkumar’s JellyMIUI and as of right now the latest builds are buggy :/ though I am open to trying other ROMs.

I will note there is a patched version with in browser text selection working and everything else over at miui.com in the Chinese forums. I'm wondering if its fixes and sources can be recompiled to this original version as the patched one is over themed and mainly in Chinese :/.

*Update* tried the browser suggestion and tried copying browser text with opera mini and it seems to fix the problem. I really like the miui stock browser is there a patched version or anything I can use apposed to opera?

hello
i am using a miui 2.2.3 gb rom and really like me, i want to ask you if the camera and camcorder are fully working in 4,x,x, versions
thanks.
If you don't mind gb I really recommend mrgaraks Miui freshly squeezed rom.
I've had it for a couple of months now, every time I flash a ics or jb rom there's always little bugs that irritate me. But I keep going back to this, literally had not a single problem.

The original camera on some miui 4x versions indeed works. Mainly all the 4X I've tested from miui.us miuiandroid and miui.com excluding JellyMIUI *latest builds* camera works but camcorder force closes. The fixed camera apk is floating around here somewhere in the forums I'll probably upload the link later If I can find it.
*Edit* here it is make sure you download the fixed 2 apk version works *camera & camcorder* with a majority of 4X miui ROMs just install it like any other app the first run maybe a little laggy so give it a few minutes to settle and it'll run smooth after that. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15307536&postcount=167

But the old miui cannot edit the drawer size as some people prefer the icon to be 4x5 but new version can.
I wouldn't know I only had it for all of ten minutes, the theme app was retarded on this one, had to sign up to xaomi just to try and change it. Plus Gmail never worked properly, just jitters weirdly when you open it.
If you know a decent port to dhd without these issues let me know cos other than those problems I really liked it

I'm using latest miuiandroid (3.1.18) with ics 4.0.4 and it's pretty stable. The only issue I noticed is the wifi hotspot. It has a sense camera as it is based on desire s sense rom. It also has the sense fm radio. Inspire users have to flash a patch to improve the sound quality. Gapps have to be flashed separately.
I'm telling you this in case anyone is interested.
EDIT: I forgot to mentioned that you can flash control panel from miuiaustralia in order to customize some stuff like clock position and other things.
EDIT 2: Browser text selection works perfectly.
