Cant Attatch MMS

Okay ive searched this entire thread for a cure but only found a fix using minfreemanager that only worked on 1.0.0

I cant attatch pics via the Messaging app no matter how many times i try and its SOOO annoying. Im running Virtuous Unity 1.29.0 The latest version, on the G2 (US)

Does ANYBODYYYY out there know how to fix this???

Also when somebody figures out this whole loss of SMS messages let me know because this is ALSO ANNOYING!!! lol I hate having to rely on GhostlySms.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] monomer888:
The workaround is the go to the Gallery first and share the picture via Messaging.

The general feeling is that most of our woes is caused by processes being kicked out of memory prematurely by the system because it thinks the memory is running low. We only have workarounds (rather than fixes) at the moment, but could also try some of the other things here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=15411920#post15411920

Got it to work, just had one crash but I just continued the TB app restore.

Anyway the typical free ram for this ROM is between 70-80mb?

i have the dz hboot, i migrated to it, i then superwiped my phone, then flashed the 1.29 version of the rom, and got a TON of android.process force closes, and i just couldnt do anything! however the odd thing is, i managed to titanium backup restore everything, and then the force closes occurred.....it was odd!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] evilcuber:
I get around 100mb of ram with this rom. But i also flashed a rom cleaner with this rom to get more free ram
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] taob:
That's typically what a see with the standard minfree settings and my usual complement of apps. Sometimes it goes as high as 110 MB free, other times it drops to 40 MB or so. 70-80 MB is about right for my average day-to-day use.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mmduluth:
I don’t know if this has been discussed here or not but a quick search didn’t turn up anything. It’s 9:48 PM where I’m at and the weather app says it’s sunny and partly cloudy. Well it’s definitely not sunny. Is there something I need to change? The time is correct and the timezone is correct as well. Thanks.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] taob:
Go into Settings -> Accounts & Sync and see when the last time your weather data was synced. I don't run any of the HTC Sense weather widgets or apps, so I sometimes see the same problem with the lockscreen.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mmduluth:
Thanks for the reply. It stayed the same even after I manually updated, but finally changed to night around 11PM. Ohh well.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] monomer888:
The HTC Weather app gets its data from Accuweather, and in my experience Accuweather isn't always accurate.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] nickthequick13:
I use juice defender so my internet is always off when my screen is off, I just cant seem to figure it out and its frustrating.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dkmurphys:
Love the ROM and hope you guys realize that there are dedicated testers out there who respect and appreciate the work you guys have been putting in.

One question for other users:

Anyone been able to get a wallpaper to fit across all 5 screens? (aka. "Wallpaper Scrolling")

While setting a new wallpaper I'm only able to crop it to one screen size...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] DaygosTommyT:
Try the app dodol Wallpaper in the android market.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dkmurphys:
I don't think the problem is in the cropping of the photo but instead has to do with the capability of the ROM allowing "wallpaper scrolling".

Thank you for the suggestion though, I've tried it and it didn't resolve the issue.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] DaygosTommyT:
Ohh well, i figured it might work because i've used this app to disable wallpaper scrolling on other roms, i thought it could work the opposite.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bombadier:
Anybody know of a fix for the brightness bug (brightness resetting to full) after using the camera?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] monomer888:
That would depend on what kind of a bug it is.

In my experience there are two different 'symptoms':

1. The brightness sets itself to 100% every single time the camera app is exited despite whatever setting it was on before.

The causes for this:

a. using a mod (eg. battery percentage mod) based on a framework-res.apk from a different ROM.

b. using a kernel such as the Eugene's Streamline Sense kernel together with the Sense 3 launcher

2. The brightness sets itself to 100% intermittently when the camera app is exited despite whatever setting it was on before.

The causes for this:

a. unknown: although using a different launcher (GO Launcher EX or Launcher Pro) seems to solve this. I can't say it is a 'low memory' problem because the logcat doesn't show anything conclusive when it happens.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bombadier:
You again,cheers :-)

So the default sense launcher is to blame,this had happened before and after flashing the Unity 4 kernel,can live with it but have noticed random brightness resets as you have mentioned,thanks for the info
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Sanatize:
I know that workaround already, But it sucks having to do than KNOWING that i could do it in so many fewer clicks. If anybody figures out the attaching MMS issue PLEASEE post :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bradley_e_smith:
I use timeout3g which does the same thing as well.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] taob:
Specifically, it's the launcher app that needs to allow this. The stock HTC launcher does not support wallpaper scrolling. This seems to have coincided with the ability to have wraparound homescreens. Other launchers (e.g., GO Launcher EX or LauncherPro) will do scrolling wallpapers fine.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] taob:
Oh, are you talking about the HTC Weather app, or the Weather lockscreen? I do sometimes get the daytime weather animations in the evening or night. The conditions are current, but the lockscreen picks the wrong animation set for that time of day. Not sure why that is.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dkmurphys:
That is very unfortunate. I do appreciate your reply though. I hope they become supported in the future or a work around without switching the launcher would be superb. I love my widgets too much to change.

I've never gotten weather animations at the wrong time throughout the day. I use both the weather lockscreen and the weather app. Does it have something to do with the provider of the current weather information?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] evilcuber:
The weather updating is not a problem for me. The problem is the weather lockscreen because usually when i look at it it tells me old weather. Is there any way to make the weather update when you go to your weather lock screen?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] android602:
Aww.. finally I changed my hboot to the desire z hboot and flashed unity 1.29... Everything seems good so far
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mputtr:
search this thread with the term Automate it!

I posted a pretty consistent workaround for that issue. I believe I posted it here otherwise it's in the virtuous 2.0 thread
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] monomer888:
Oh yeah, forgot about that. Here's the post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=15639330&postcount=1818
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mputtr:
Well, there ya go. I do notice that if you switch back and forth too fast and too often, automate it can miss the deactivation. So look for the trigger message to verify. If it does not pop up, it means that it was never triggered.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bombadier:
Ok thanks for the link and the tip of automate it but for me I think I will just live with manually resetting the brightness as I don't need another thing running in the background,cool program right enough
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bombadier:
Am I the only one interested in getting reboot working from the terminal?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mmduluth:
It’s both. The weather app and lockscreen. They both have the wrong animation but the conditions are current for me as well. It was just something that bothered my OCD.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mputtr:
if you're worried about it taking out battery life, it barely does any of that. it sits there at taking about 3mb of ram. and it reacts almost instantly. If anything, i have atleast 15 different rules for different situations.

such as lowering the volume at midnight and returning it to normal at 10am.

max out my volume when certain ppl call (mom, brother, gf, etc) @ specific times

start music when i plug in my headphones

etc

etc

but yeah, it's actually not that bad though if you're worried about another process. it's pretty discreet.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] aliasi11:
I am unable to download any application from Market after flashing the ROM.. Even my previously installed apps.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] evilcuber:
Will there be rotating rosie support in future versions?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mputtr:
No.

Unity is based off the sensation which means that there will be no rotating rosie.

You've been here long enough to know that you should search this thread. it's been asked and answered repeatedly.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] evilcuber:
I know that but the new synergy rom has rotating rosie and its sense 3.0 so i thought it might still be possible
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] taob:
Actually, I believe it is Sense 2.1 with some Sense 3.0 apps thrown in.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mputtr:
It is based off the Evo Shift 4G leak which uses Sense 2.1

it has some sense 3.0 stuff in it, but it isn't sense 3.0
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dkmurphys:
Could you be more specific on which features are not working please?

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] BootloopedMillennials:
Any clue if the Virtuous crew plan to lighten this ROM to free up RAM a bit? I was able to delete a few things to get close to 120mbs of free ram at idle. But I dont want to keep deleting and messing with system files that I have no clue what they do. Personally think this ROM would be amazing with 130-140mbs of free ram.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] evilcuber:
i used a ram cleaning script to delete some of the useless stuff like widgets and applications i dont use. after i flashed the rom to get around 125-130mb of ram
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] BootloopedMillennials:
Got a link to this ram cleaning script?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bombadier:
I thought that with android you don't want alot of free RAM due to the way it works?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] evilcuber:
You want more free ram because with less ram you wont beable to run heavy graphics apps and you wont be able to multitask and switch between apps that fast as the system will keep killing them to free up more ram
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] evilcuber:
Ill post a link when i get home. Im outside right now

EDIT: im home. heres the link: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1050283

the script works with any sense based roms. also when u download the script, you can open it in notepad and put a # symbol beside the action that you want to keep. say it says delete weather widget. you can put a # beside it and it wont delete it. Just follow the instructions on the post :P

I got Unity 1.29 installed for a few days now and it's running great, just after a few hours it becomes sluggier? Does anybody know why?

I flashed the Unity V4 kernel and OC'ed to 1516mhz (ondemand governor).
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Lokospl:
Can I flash it without wipe over 1.24?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] SnowOokami:
You can try to do it with wiping the cache and dalvik cache only so you won't lose the configuration (it should work that way). But I recommend you to perform a nandroid first before doing that ;)

A full wipe is always recommended :cool:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mputtr:
you should be able to just flash over it fine. Since it's not a major OS upgrade you should be ok, but as snowookami says, do a cache and dalvik cache wipe though just to be half safe :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] monomer888:
Not saying this is the issue, but some people have reported some issues with the V4 kernel with Virtuous Unity (admittedly in the DHD forums):

But just to balance it out, there are some good reports too:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16080436&postcount=4342

Not sure who to believe really, but you could try seeing if swapping out the kernel makes a difference? (Also report back here if you find anything interesting! :) )

Anyone having problems with their phones being sluggish after mounting/unmounting SD card? I am Running 1.29 with UNITY_V4_2.6.35.13 kernel and tonight after mounting the card the phone becomes sluggish and takes time to get the unmount(charge only) menu back,then the phone seems to grind to a halt till I lose patience and reboot.

Suggestions?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] taob:
Strictly speaking, the best use of RAM is when exactly 100% of it is in use 100% of the time. If your RAM isn't being used, it is wasted. But since Android can't predict your RAM needs until it actually happens, and it takes time to free up RAM when it is needed, it tries to find the right balance by keeping some available RAM at all times, just in case.

You don't want too little free RAM, because that can affect the performance of apps that suddenly require more memory (e.g., a call comes in, and the dialer app needs to allocate a chunk for itself, to play the ringtone, to display the profile photo of the caller, etc.). But you don't want too much free RAM either, because that means Android has to be much more aggressive killing off processes in order to maintain that free pool of RAM. Apps now have to restart, which ironically ends up slowing things down instead of speeding them up.

The best way to increase performance in this scenario is to add more RAM. Since we can't do that with our phones, the second best way is to reduce your RAM usage. But that has consequences as well. Don't start deleting apps just because you want more free RAM. RAM that is in use is RAM that is useful. Make sure that whatever you delete is actually taking up RAM, and not just flash memory. e.g., I don't use the HTC launcher. It is still installed, but it isn't running, and therefore it isn't taking up any RAM. There's no need to delete it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] taob:
I haven't noticed that myself. The OS rescans the card for new media files after the SD card is re-inserted, but it should not take that long. Do you have a slow card or tens/hundreds of thousands of files? Do you see any processes taking up a lot of CPU?
