Only weirdness I have after the first couple of hours with it. The 4 icons/shortcuts on the home screen I can't long press and remove, move, edit or modify. Only thing I've been able to do with them is ass another shortcut on the screen and swap them out.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] CamoGeko:
Try long pressing on a widget first, then do the icons again. Should work.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] d@rklink:
Searched the thread and couldn't seem to find anything regarding a fix for the .com/www. button on the hardware keyboard. Is this just an issue with Sense ROMs or is there an easy fix in the settings? Checked but could find anything in keyboard settings for the button.

Anyone played around with the Rosie apk?

I occasionally have a problem in that I can't load HTC widgets to my homes screens. I got through the motions and then it takes me back to the widget selection screen rather than the home screen where the widget is supposed to be placed.

I tried clearing the rosie cache/data only for all my widgets to disappear and the HTC widgets to not show up in the selection screen and previews are all blank.

I luckily have backed up the app and data using TiBu so was able to restore and reboot, which fixed the problem. For me this actually solved the problem of widgets to sticking to the homescreen too.

I guess I gort lucky, but if someone knows how this works I would appreciate it as I often wipe and reinstall new roms and this sticky widget issue is always a cause of grief!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jmpcrx:
hi, anyone got any ideas why i have 4 apps (miren browser, soundhound, dolphin browser and skyfire) that everytime i reset the phone, they loose their icons (i.e, replaced with the standard 'market' type green/white icon)? this continues to happen even when apps are uninstalled/re-installed etc..

also, i have the move to sd bug, where whatever move to sd app i use, when it takes me to application info, it says 'computing' for longer than it should, then after 30 secs or so, Always displays in the 'Total' field, 344kb, as it does in 'Application' field. i click 'move to sd' , it then changes the above fields to 724kb, i then click move to sd again and it just repeats and goes back to 344kb.

the only way it will move to sd is if i press 'move to sd' before it has finished 'computing' - and even then im not sure it has done it as i can never find any folders on my sd card that relate to the app im supposed to have moved..

This was also the case with ver 1.26 (aftwer which i did a full wipe im CWM etc and flashed 1.27, still with the same issue)

if it were not for these bugs, would be a perfect rom (although i suspect that the move to sd problem may be the only 'rom' bug i have, if the two above bugs are not related that is).

i read someone also had this move to sd prob a while ago, but reported that simply going out of the app and back in fixes the problem,, but unfortunately, this is not the case for me..

any help would be much appriciated, thanks guys... :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Miniwolfi:
that would be a problem because i didn't test it?

I will try put the original test it and then apply the theme and see what happens. Will report tommorow.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] whitis:
Well, is it just me or is this rom a bit laggy?

I usually don't have over 80MB RAM, while on CM7 I have around 180-200MB RAM.

Or is there something I did wrong?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] evilcuber:
no, virtuous unity takes up some of the ram for the homescreen. i get around 100-90mb of ram.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] LagunaCid:
Huh. I never got above 100 MB with CM7, are you sure?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Jandyman:
I usually have about 80mb free with this rom but thats been more then enough to have it run smooth for me :)

Also btw i installed setCPU and set the governer to 'scarey', but every time i go back to homescreen turn off screen and turn it back it it has reset to 'on demand' (though my edited overclock values remain) why is this does anyone know? :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] CQd44:
I love not being to restart my phone for fear that it might hard freeze and require a battery pull 3 minutes into the next uptime!

Sarcasm aside, it's a nice ROM. Needs refinement, but good nonetheless. I really want to use it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cjward23:
If your experiencing random reboots and freezing have you tried the patch in the OP? Some phones can't handle the 1.2ghz overclock.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] CQd44:
Funny thing is though, with other ROMs my phone could handle 1.5 GHz. 1.8 on one that I tried.

All things equal, it's this ROM/kernel that does something different.\

EDIT: DISREGARD MY TWO LAST POSTS I AM A HUGE WATERMELON

My SetCPU was switching between On-Demand and Interactive without me telling it to.

Very sorry to the author of this ROM! This was completely user error! Sorry again!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rajbaba2:
Well i have been searching everywhere and i need someone to explain how to switch governers. I just installed the v3 kernel and want to change the wake state to smartass.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cjward23:
Have you tried using the rom with out set cpu. The Unity dev team use a new method of overclocking. read about it here

Overclocking info here
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rajbaba2:
Im not using set cpu im trying to find out how to change my awake state to smartass using daemon
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cjward23:
Sorry tried to answer two posts with one post. overclocking info here
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Jandyman:
I have.	.	.	.bad battery annoyed me :/ performance was good though. I flashed eugines streamlined kernal for sense as it claims to have more optimisations than most kernals.	.	.	.	but it still keeps switching back to on demand.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rajbaba2:
I went into root explorer found the files now do i open wake goverrner with text editor and delete the text tht says ondemand and write smartass
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cjward23:
That is correct. :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] evilcuber:
i think because when you installed setcpu, it disabled the virtuous_oc files and set it back to default
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jmpcrx:
bump.

anyone any ideas on the move to sd problem? thanks..
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Jandyman:
I mentioned in a post after that im not running virtuous, im running eugines streamlined kernal. The special sense version modified for use with this rom. AFAIK it doesnt touch the daemon so thats why i installed setcpu. Also when you install setcpu and disable virtuous oc there is no default to go back to (as daemon is disabled) so it would just adopt the setcpu settings i tink. Also it only reverts back to on demand after screen is turned on then off then back on. So i believ the problem is something else.	.	.	.	.	.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] monomer888:
You're referring to the Streamline sense kernel for unity correct?

Actually I've been testing this kernel out for a bit, and I think it does respect the values in the virtuous oc daemon. However, in your case, I'm not sure why it keeps defaulting back to ondemand, as you are correct, the daemon should deactivate after you install SetCPU. Have you set up a screen-off profile in SetCPU by any chance?

You can check whether the daemon is actually still operational (despite SetCPU being installed) by looking at the logcat. I use CatLog to do this, but there are other logcat viewers too (as well as the adb method). If it's still running, you should see an output similar to the screenshot in an earlier post I made: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=15164724&postcount=1035

Alternatively, if you're not curious at all about it, I'd just uninstall SetCPU and use the daemon. :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Jandyman:
Correct thats the kernal im using :) No i havnt set any profiles in setcpu as i dont want to use the setcpu governers, i installed setcpu purley to underclock and switch to scary governer :) in case it using the daemon values i changed the default screen on governer from ondemand to scary, but when i checked with setcpu it still showed ondemand and liked to reset to that wenever i change it. This is what made me presume it didnt effect streamlined kernal..	.	.	.its rather puzzling. Thanks for the informative post and links! I will download the app and check if the daemon is running that should help us figure out whats up :D

EDIT: wow your right, it took me all of two seconds to check and yeah it shows that the daemon is resetting it to ondemand wenever i turn the screen off then on. But i edited the daemon files to set scary(edit:woops typo) on wake though? O.o odd...	.	.	.	I changed the wake profile file found here /system/etc/virtuous_oc to read 'scarey' instead of ondemand. Should this alone not make the daemon set it soo?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] monomer888:
Make sure it's spelt right too. It's 'scary' isn't it?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Jandyman:
Yup checked that too, im certain its spelt 'scary' (i rechecked now and its right) i checked as i taught there might be an american variation or something. Why and how can the daemon ignore its paremeters? Is there a way i can just disable it totally and use setcpu?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jmwils3:
lol, yeah, the daemon is set to deactivate upon the installation of ANY such cpu controlling apps, such as set-cpu.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Jandyman:
Nope not in my case. Still running for for me despite having setcpu installed, i even un/reinstalled it and still no luck. (Logcat confirms it is running)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] monomer888:
This might sound like a simple question but did you soft-reset at any stage? Any changes to the virtuous oc daemon requires a soft-reset to bring it into effect.

As I'm also currently running the streamline kernel, I edited the wake governor file, soft-reset, and ran a logcat. It confirmed that the wake governor was set to 'scary'.

I also installed SetCPU and set it to some random settings. Without a soft-reset, the virtuous oc daemon was still running and reset all my SetCPU values (which in my case, set my wake governor to 'scary' despite me changing it to something else). After a soft-reset, the logcat showed the daemon was deactivated, and the SetCPU values 'stuck'.

If you hadn't soft-reset at all, that might explain why 1) the daemon is still running and 2) it's still using stock settings despite you changing the files.

EDIT: I used the term 'soft-reset' as a force of habit from my Palm/Windows Mobile days. I suppose I need to try to use the terms 'restart' or 'reboot' more. :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Jandyman:
I did a 'hot restart' a few times figuring that would be enough.	.	.	. I will try a fully restart then edit this post with my results :)

EDIT: Thanks for all the help Monomer888! Turns out you wer right! Apparantly a hot restart wasnt enough, i fully restarted and now setcpus permissions seem to stick. Also upon running a logcat i and screen on/off and the daemon doesnt seem to be interfering. Lovely! :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] evilcuber:
What does hot restart do?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Jandyman:
As far as i kno 'hot restart' is basically just not a full restart which makes it much faster. Its handy if something is acting up or going wrong and you have to retart and dont wanna be waiting. But as you saw from my predicament it obviously does not 'fully restart'	.	.	.and im not able to tell you the technical side to it though.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ghane0:
I can confirm: Of the about 40 SMS I have received since upgrading to GB (via Unity), 2 were detected by Ghostly.

I recieve few enough SMS that I know which i have not seen :-)

Sanjeev, Desire Z
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] evilcuber:
I just deleted my ghostly sms app using titanium backup. none of my sms messages were deleted
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Jandyman:
Obviously none wer deleted from the database as ghostly sms stores messages separatly to stock app. But the dissapearing sms problem if when sms's arnt recieved, they get 'lost' and never show up in your messaging app. So without ghostly you cant for sure say that uv never lost messages.

Im a heavy txter and in da past week or so which iv had this rom iv had 42 messages which wer 'saved' by ghostly (ie didnt show up in messaging app but saved and transfered by ghostly) imo it doesnt hurt to have it, but it could to not :P
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Martin_F:
I had the same problem since yesterday. I checked .apk linked to process and Found that by installing Blue Magic HD theme the input .apk had changed. So I opened Virtuous Unity 1.27 ROM .zip and in virtuous_unity-v1.27.0.zip\vision\system\app I found HTC_IME.apk for Vision model. Than I copied this File using RootExplorer to system\app rewrote the old one and my HW keyboard works as well as before.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ryandaneri:
ok so im sorry if this sounds bad rmk and team, but unity is tooooooo slow for me but there is another ginger/sense rom id like to use......and when searching (google/virtuousrom/XDA) for your sense kernels (cause ur kernels improve batt/performance) all that is found is for froyo? so could someone direct me to the gingerbread sense kernels please!(maybe post a link) they were on here a couple weeks ago but now their gone????? PLEASE!:p:p:D:confused:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] monomer888:
Glad you got it sorted in the end! :)

As I've commented before, using this kernel for me produced the phenomenon where the brightness is set at 100% every time I exited the camera app, but only when using the Sense 3 (rosie) launcher. After switching to an alternative launcher, the problem went away.

The technical side of it is this: Source: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=792542

I guess a system server restart is not enough to reinitialise some early system functions.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mputtr:
For the max brightness issue, there is a workaround. I have an app that I strongly consider a must have app for all android users. It's called Automate It! And I've used it since it was in beta. It allows for very specific sets of intructions that you can tell it. Try out the free version first and see if u like it, but anyways this is what i did:

Set trigger for "application status" then set it to detect on deactivate and choose the camera app then save

Set action for set screen brightness and check automatic brightness then save

Save the rule and you should have your brightness switch back to automatic when you leave the camera app.

I hope that helps

For a better fitted rosie, look at the slate3D theme scroll down. And you will see a patch to get a better fitted rosie, install in recovery :) aslo it looks nicer,
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] the orange bandit:
Hulu Plus for Android was updated today to support the G2, but with this ROM installed, I get a message that my device isn't supported. I kinda expected this, but thought I'd go ahead and report it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] evilcuber:
sorry i meant none of my messages had dissappeared
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Scythe01:
So I recently swapped out the stock Messages app on Virtuous Unity for the CM7.0.x but have run into some trouble.

I have some Direct Message shortcuts on my home screen which no longer work. Basically whenever I try to send a message to someone (Press send on the touchscreen or press Enter on the keyboard) it force closes.

Another side-effect is receiving texts in the wrong order, I have a look at GB Ghostly SMS and they're all there in the correct order.

I asked someone and they believe its a framework issue, someone else believes its got something to do with the app itself coming from a non-Sense ROM.

Any way to fix this or a workaround perhaps?

Edit: I originally ported the CM7 Messaging app so I wouldn't put a dent in my touchscreen from hitting "Send" (am a heavy duty texter) but if I can somehow edit the stock (Unity stock) apk so it includes some features from this one then that'd be great.

Some problems i've noticed that may or may not just be me:

- sometimes apps will not install from the market, it'll dl but then give me an unsuccessful message. Clearing data makes it work again but it'll happen again sooner or later

- I got a call today, tried to answer it but it froze, had to pull battery. The call never showed up on my call log.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] foshucka:
Not sure if this was mentioned but I managed to flash the desire z hboot without using adb by dropping the PCIMG.zip onto root of my sdcard just like a radio flash. Booted into bootloader, I let it install and do its thing it restarts and finishes the install. Now here was a tricky part. It installed the new hboot now I have no ROM.

Well call it lazy I didnt feel like getting up and adb into my phone for the ROM, so I pulled the battery, pulled the card. Replaced battery, booted into the bootloader (no card so no update check, else it will find the PCIMG10.zip file and want you to update).

Anyways, I selected the recovery option booting into ROM manager. Great except no card installed = no way to flash ROM. So I plugged in the charger (optional) and half way pulled the battery keeping the contacts connected so phone would stay on. Slide the sdcard in the holder and then slide the battery all the way back in.

Takes a little finesse but should work. Now I could obviously access all files on my sdcard.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] theone10:
Anybody know why ROM manager does show the latest virtuous sense 1.27 . It show only 1.26

I have the g2 .

Is the 1.27 make for the g2?

Thanks
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Scythe01:
ROM Manager doesn't show 1.27 since AFAIK it emcompasses all of the supported devices as a general update rather than it being specific.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] evilcuber:
just download the .zip file from the virtuous website and put it on the root of your sd card. the boot into clockwork recovery and flash zip from sd card
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Stratspider230:
I have a problem. Last night on this rom it wouldn't connect to wifi at all, it would be very intermittent. And now today I can't get any faster than 3G speeds (about 200kbps) download, I know I'm not capped for data but, did this rom do something to my phone? I don't see how but just wondering if this has happened to anyone else. Currently on RMKs new Sense Vision he released and the speed is still a problem
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Stratspider230:
Also if this needs to go to a different queue I apologize, I just don't know if it was a rom problem or not
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Jason Phan:
Check your APNs setting, make sure it select TMOBILE US.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Stratspider230:
It is. It was on TMobile Data, now on TMobile US and nothing changed. Took two minutes to download Speedtest app. Any other suggestions?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] almostthere:
Hi guys, new to this ROM but I noticed under Mobile Networks GSM and WCDMA available. I need HSDPA as our country uses those networks instead. Anyway to select it?

EDIT: Scratch that, selecting WCDMA allowed access to HSDPA

on my previous rom, when my battery was 10% or lower, i did get a notification alarm sound.... now not anymore...

where can i find this notification? i have look at the sound and power management options, but couldnt find it...

thnx

Try to look at settings>power: "enable power saver" checked or not ;)

Hi, I'm now back on Unity. I love this rom, although it's a little bit memory hungry :)

Before this I was on G-lite 1.0.3 and I noticed that the music player was much louder on headphones.

Is it possible to change that in this rom ?

Thanks
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Andy Phillips:
I'm not sure why but I've had no problems with this rom at all!

everything works as it should...

I miss the flickr integration in the gallery but thats all....

I went from the stock rom..downgraded using AMT/SD card, rooted using AMT, wiped and flashed virtuous 1.26 using rom manager, made a back up, flashed 1.27.....made another back up...job done.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] schriss:
I've noticed my battery goes down quickly with this ROM, anybody noticed the same? I didn't change anything. I use JuiceDefender Ultimate with the same setting as always. For example phone goes airplane at night, but still 10% of battery lost in the morning.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] NoFatePPC:
hello, i have checked the power saver settings, but i couldnt find a setting within that section to enable a notification or sound ...

only things like , disable wifi, bluetooth, brightness ...

Settings > sounds.. kinda obvious..
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Athrun88:
Hey, there is a good writeup on why batteries do this somewhere on these forums. On my phone atm, so ill link when i get home, but the jist is the method of charging used by the manufacturer.

That being said, sense roms do use alittle more power because of sense i think. I was able to get 24+hrs on G-lite or MIUI but getting about 18-20hrs using the mugen 1800mA battery. Getting better though, perhaps the meter is constantly calibrating? Not sure.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] NoFatePPC:
dont see any sound setting there about the battery warning? only the notification sounds
