I have problems connecting to my wi-fi with the new rom, I'll re-download ....
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kjacksonmusic:
I agree to remove the volume limitations. Also, is anyone having reception issues I've flashed the newest radio the one that was made avail on the 14th of July. I am getting mostly edge recpetion where I used to get 4g.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Vandale:
Downloading flashing now. Cannot wait!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] hitman818:
Since this is a sense based rom is there need for the dz hboot?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] pearse:
Yes, virtuous unity started the need for the dz hboot because sense 3.0 is so large.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] F033x:
x2

That is the only thing keeping me from using this as a dd, the volume output is wayyyy too low for use in aux. Otherwise im glad to see such a beautiful rom in action!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] android602:
Coming from various v. 2.9 do I need to do a full wipe for 3.1?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Puffballofdoom:
If you mean you come from a completely other ROM, then yes, you need a full wipe.

If you mean you come from Unity 1.29.0 then no, you don't need to full wipe, just flash 1.31.0 on top of it :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] MMontanez347:
hey, last time i checked i remember reading that this rom requires the desire zhboot in order to install...it seems i dont see that message anywhere, unless it was with another rom but just to be safe let me ask, does this ROM require the desire zhboot in order to flash???
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] android602:
Yes it requires the dZ hboot.. There's a video on you tube that makes it really easy to do
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] MMontanez347:
alright i figured it did.....i asked because i dont see the notice anywhere that says "requires desirez hboot" thanks for the quick response
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dkmurphys:
It's still posted right above the change log.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] txbrownrice:
Does anyone have a mod for battery percent for this ROM?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] android602:
@txbrownrice So. Far I'm using battery minder
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] android602:
And for those having problems with the auto brightness.. there's an app called SCREEN FILTER in the market for free
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] txbrownrice:
I found one that doesn't send the ROM all crazy http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16158575&postcount=4
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] telerian:
Arabic support

The changelog states:

Added partial Arabic support (rest will be available as patch)

Does anyone know what partial means ? and where are the patches ?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Maximum Bob Lutz:
To be honest, I was thinking the same thing. But so far, in my regular usage (email, Google Voice, browsing, home screens, some games), I haven't spotted a single bug. I suggest you give it a try.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] StripLV:
quick lookup app missing

Can please someone confirm that the app "quick lookup " is not in this ROM?

If yes wth is that? I love and need this app.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rmk40:
There's a lot of noise about a bug here or there but realistically most the issues being reported would not even be noticed by the majority. I've been using the ROM as a daily driver for a week now and haven't encountered any more issues than I would on a completely stock ROM.

Unity is more polished than reading this thread would leave one to believe. You have nothing to lose by creating a backup of your current ROM and giving it a try. I suspect those sitting on the sidelines will be surprised.

I have the stock 12.28b.60.140eU_26.03.02.26_M radio
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] David Dee:
I downloaded this rom last night. It was quite slow and shaky at first but has improved exponentially with time. As of this afternoon it is running incredibly well. This is by far the smoothest / fastest sense rom I have used. I am really enjoying it, thanks to all the devs, your work is highly appreciated!

Only one forced reboot - happened when I disconnected a call on the handset while connect to my car bluetooth handsfree.

My reception is noticeably weaker. Any recommendations for radio? I have a NAM Desire Z on Rogers. Radio version: 12.28b.60.140eU_26.03.02.26_M

Home screen does not rotate when I extend my keyboard (sorry if I missed anyone already addressing this).
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] likingandroid:
I agree. I've been using it for about 24 hours and I haven't noticed any show stopper type "BUGS". I'm sure the new version will be even smoother and one thing that comes in really handy, is the ability to view feeds on the lock screen.

My thanks to the Developers who put their time and effort into this ROM.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] leehopley:
+1 i completely agree with rmk... the rom is really stable and useable.. its like htc have done the conversion of sense 3.0 for our devices... any little glitches will be fixed in future releases, these glitches are so small i dont notice them... i only noticed the graphical glitches on the widgets because i looked at the first post and saw the known issues... i wouldnt have noticed otherwise.

just give this rom a try for a day or two.. you wont look back, ive moved all my other nandoid backups to my pc now so i can use the memorycard for more videos and music and use the rom as its meant to be used...

at the end of the day this is a development forum so we are looking for bugs in roms so the devs can work on fixing it... trial and error is the key to make a successful rom so hang in their lol these glitches will be fixed in due time :)

camera 3.0 app

theres a few small bugs but its working for me

**Update**

USE THIS APK

i extracted this one from the insertcoin rom you can install it using romexplorer it seems like a newer version and there are no bugs

enjoy! :D

View attachment HTCCamera.apk
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] leehopley:
cheers lilwing... what kind of bugs are you getting?

no worries it says in the post... my bad

just in case others need to know

- HDR has to be selected thru effects selection or it will FC (SCREEN SHOT 4)

- Burst function doesn't work.

-1080 Recording Possibly dual-core required. (on some phones it will just record in 720 even toe you select 1080)

- Don't change Widesceen to normal setting, if you did then go to system settings/applications and find camera and clear data, it will fix the permanent FC it caused. (Thanks eliasadrian)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lilwing:
only the ones that are stated on the original thread.. no burst mode and hdr doesnt work if you select it from scenes you have to select it from the menu

oh and panorama is so dope haha
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] leehopley:
cheers for that :) i probabally wont try it cause i like the app thats their anyway :) but thanks!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ahmadka:
Hey guys I had a few questions ... I'm new to this ROMs concept but I really want to try this out ..

Can anyone share the exact installation steps for installing this onto my phone ? I have a Desire Z, which I will root tomorrow maybe ?

Also, are there any requirements to installing this ? Anything I need to do to my phone first in specific before trying this, etc .. ?

Also, I want to know, suppose I apply this ROM and tomorrow the authors release an updated version .. Is the procedure for updating the same ROM easier than installing it again from scratch ?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lainvalenajr:
Root/S-off, clockwork, and the rom you want to flash. Aha that's what you need but as for the steps, someone here can tell you because am lazy lol
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] leehopley:
root it using the gfree method.. this involves using adb... not hard i did it in a few hours :)

install rom manager off the market... using rom manager flash clockwork mod

then download this rom... itll be a zip file... place the zip file onto the mem card

using rom manager press reboot into recovery

itll then boot into clockworkmod

u can use track pad or vol keys to move around clock work mod options and press track pad to select the option

using clock work mod perform a data wipe or factory reset

wipe dalvik cache (on advanced menu)

then go back to the first clock work screen and select 'install zip from sd card'

then second option down it should give you the option to look on the sd card

find the rom on your sd card and select it

once flashed reboot the phone and wait for sense 3 to boot :)

happy days

need any more help just message me :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] leehopley:
lol those are the steps for ya ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] StripLV:
i am sorry to ask again but I have to know:

Is the app "quick lookup " missing in this rom or not? I installed via rom manager and don't have this app. I really need the app. So before I reinstall the rom I would like to know if its only missing for me and maybe something went wrong when I installed the romor if this app is really missing.

Thanks for help.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] leehopley:
quick lookup is not in this rom... when i hit the search button i get google search :) maybe the quick lookup will be in future releases but this was deemed an unnessesary app... you could try and get the apk from another rom and install it or copy it to the system/app folder using root explorer... may work if your lucky lol
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blast0id:
what bugs? lol... there AREN'T ANY that are worth mentioning hardly... hah... some people are WAY TOO ANAL to even be THINKING about flashing a custom rom... seriously... if you can't deal with, or figure out a workaround on your own, you have no business flashing ANY custom rom EVER... go flash the latest stock rom and stuff it, this is not directed at the person I quoted, but rather a general statement, if the shoe fits... EFFING WEAR IT!!!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] leehopley:
here here benjamminzIS :P
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] PJcastaldo:
FYI insred of making a giant post like that, which was totally rude, you can just unzip the rom and look what it has..

Now the on topic stuff....

Flashed last night right over fusion (dont recommend this) did dalvik wipe and a fix perm and have had no issues.. Well other than the video playback but thats no biggie.. Hadn't had to flash the 1ghz patch either.. Great rom.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] grosminetiti:
Hello, a new return with the upgrade 1.31 :

- I have problems with my contacts and syncronysation (their are mixed and a lot of connections with my contacts and facebook are wrong (they are ok befor...)...)

- I have a problem with the keyboard because the arabic keypad appears in some occasions in place of the standart azerty (for me)... (and all is ok in the parametres for the azerty and frnch...)

Good rom but I think I return to 1.29 because my contacts mix and arbian keypad is a big problem for me... Hope it will be resolved for the next upgrade...

(I have made a full wipe and test the apply Rom twice and same result...)

Thanks for the job at the team and sorry for my bad english but I talk usualy in french...

Anybody having a problem with wifi sleep policy always defaulting back to never? I have tried changing it to after 15 minutes then menu save but every time it will go back to never?????????????

Has always been an issue on unity for me.

About the auto brightness bug, I was recommended automateit an app from the market will sort that out.

Have fun
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] evilcuber:
here are some useful items and attachments i used on the rom:

-battery percentage mod

-super wipe

-4g icon changer

-remove trackpad wake

-rom cleaner to help reduce the amount of ram this rom takes

-htc setup remover which you can use after youve setup your phone. this saves on ram also. dont worry, if you flash another rom, the setup will come back.

-Unity v4 kernel (link): http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1121937

Instructions on Flashing:

-Copy all .zip files to the root of your sd card

-Boot into Clockwork Mod Recovery

-Choose Install .Zip from sd card then choose choose .zip file

-then just flash them according to your choosing.

NOTE: For rom cleaner, you must flash your rom and DO NOT REBOOT, right after flash rom cleaner. Also flash htc setup remover after youve setup your phone. For further instructions, read the thread of each file. I am not responsible for anything that happens to your phone.

If this post in anyway helped you, remember to hit the Thanks button, hope this helps :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] txbrownrice:
Thanks for all of these! You have made my G2 very happy. I have been flashing since the G1 but I can't seem to figure out how to post on here. lol
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jmwils3:
just a heads up, the rom cleaner has been updated to 1.2 :) might wanna check it out. also, apparently 2.0 is coming soon
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] david279:
This ROM doesn't switch the data connection to h+. Any fix for that?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] evilcuber:
as stated by the OP, your carrier often lie to you about your 4g coverage and tells you that you have 4g even when ur in a 3g zone. this rom only shows 4g or H when your actually in a 4g zone
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] david279:
Ok didn't see that in the op though.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] evilcuber:
sorry i meant to say in the virtuous rom website it said that:

Sense: I used to see HSPA+ (H) connectivity with the stock ROM, where Virtuous shows me 3G in the same area. Why is the data slower?

The stock T-Mobile ROM lies about data rate and displays H even if you are in a 3G-only territory. Virtuous displays H only when you actually have HSPA+ service.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] david279:
Ok 2 other problems...I can't set my voicemail number. It always resets to this default 805 number after reboot. Second problem is the auto brightness always turns itself off after a couple hours. I'm getting these issues after a clean install.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] olobex:
My findings on 1.31.0:

- Still English only when hardware keyboard is out (FN+Space)

- It seems that HTC Mail (via Exchange ActiveSync) still does not reliably and automatically send emails which were typed while no online connection available. They stay in the outbox even when back online. You have to manually go to the outbox, open the emails there again and press send again. Same problem possibly true for calendar entries entered while not online, they possibly get lost/not synced.

- Still all text in HTC Mail gets lost when switching apps or adding pictures while composing.

- Very fast rom

- New Virtuous OC App is great

- (in all sense roms) HTC weather apps built in database of cities is missing a lot of (at least German) smaller (but still big) cities. Crazy that they are hard coded into a sqlite database while the city at the current position is fetched online and presented correctly. There is a howto somewhere on how to fetch the parameteres from an accuweather website and enter them into the database manually, but... Maybe I will build an app for this later on.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] evilcuber:
one quick question. i have 1.27 right now and am going to upgrade to 1.31. do i need to format my sd card and put the .zip file to flash or can i just put the .zip on the sd card with my files and flash it?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] android602:
If you download it straight from your phone, it will download it to your download files, from there just simply flash it
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] fn002449:
I had the same problem... (with googleweather) but I tried it while on WIFI... then it will find the smaller city.. you may try that.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] endlesstrail:
I seem to be getting Marketplace errors. When I try to install or update any app, I get an error message "ebay could not be downloaded due to an error". I cannot cancel the install either. On the market screen, I see the ebay app listed in the downloading section with the moving progress bars in grey but nothing appears to be happening.

Is anyone experiencing the same issue? I've tried reflashing the ROM, but I'm still getting the same errors.

Changed to Unity 1.31 from CM7.03 stable, running on HTC Desire Z. Unity 1.29 didn't have this error.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ghane0:
Leaving aside if you need to wipe the phone before flashing, just to clarify, you do not need to format your SD Card. You can place the downloaded .zip anywhere on your card. your card will not be modified during the upgrade.

I am having issues with wi-fi recieption, wi-fi signals are constantly falling down to 0 even i am sitting next to the router...anyone else having this issue?

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Zohar Project:
Anyone solved the low headphone volume?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] OSCARIBANYEZ:
I also I have the same problem even change the configuration of the router. I thought that would unify the white battery icon with the other roms
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Alipk52:
i am still getting the same issue with this version, on my other wifi nokia phone, wi-fi is working perfectly as always. I tried reflashing, i tried unity v4 kernel but no help. On 1.29 wifi performance and signals were one of best i've seen, where can i get 1.29 again? Haven't saw in virtuous site after 1.31 version update
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mleet1980:
What's up with the lhtc live wallpaper freezing up?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dkmurphys:
Virtuous isn't offering it directly anymore so I've uploaded a copy that I have on my computer. Get it here.

I have had no problem with live wallpapers freezing. Are you OCing or UCing?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] karlonicolas:
hi all.

i havent tried this new rom update, but may i ask if the size of locations.apk has already been changed, or is it still the same size as the first release?

i recall that there was a plan to use the locations.apk from desire hd instead of the one here, as the locations.apk here is larger than would fit the desirez screen.

thanks in advance for your replies.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dkmurphys:
Use the Kernel of Unity v4 as it sports an audio boost of 20%.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mleet1980:
The only wallpaper that freezes is the stock htc one all my others work great. I'm using the default kernel this rom comes with.

The weather wallpaper most importantly.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] :
Only weather wallpaper freezes on my device but someone told me that its normal. :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mleet1980:
It's was the same way on my evo too. I wonder if It can be fixed.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] evilcuber:
Probably because of low memory. Flash a ram cleaner on your phone.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] taob:
Yep, seeing the same problem here. I believe it is simply a misreporting of the signal strength.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] evilcuber:
I dont have that problem, but i think if the signal strength kepps getting wacked up, i think the algorythms used to calculate it are the problem
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Lazybumx:
i love the rom

but anyone experiencing battery life problem

i mean maybe its not a problem but my battery die out around 8 hours with a full charge
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] evilcuber:
my battery life is around 12 hours with moderate to heavy use. i use juice defender and set the max sleep frequency to 368mhz
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] the orange bandit:
I'm seeing less battery life than I have in previous releases, with the exact same setup.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] crevis24:
I agree......I was getting much better battery life on 1.29 than on 1.31. I really like the ROM, but not getting any more than 7-8 hours on a charge is killing it for me.

I even deleted tons of bloatware, tweaked the OC, matched the rils on .03 radio and still drained fast.

Hopefully someone can find out the culprit for the next release.

Great ROM though
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Innocent Devil:
can somebody please give me a mediafire link for the v1.31.

I couldn't resume from multiupload.. :(
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] zeyrah:
Thank you sooooooo much! Cool stuff!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] patoberli:
Thanks, for the nice update, working smooth on my phone :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mike21pr:
The battery is a current TMO issue. Look at the G2/mT4G general sections regarding sudden battery drains among multiple devices and roms. VU isnt the culprit

s3nT fR0m mY pYrAmId fLav0r3d GlAcI3R
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] crevis24:
I thought alot of people were saying that is from the google maps issues? Is there another reason that anyone is aware of?

**edit** - it looks like it is happening all over the country when people are connected to tmo's 3g/4g network from what I have been reading.

Question is, what is the best way to switch to just 2g/edge in Unity? In all the CM7 based ROMs there is the pull down where you can toggle, but I dont see it in Unity?

Thanks in advance!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mike21pr:
Still trying to figure that out lol. Ill post when i find it

Edit: found it, settings / wireless and networks / mobile networks / network type (switch to GSM only when u want Edge only) and Auto to revert

Hope the issue gets sorted out by TMO soon

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Crey23:
Doesn't this just defeat the purpose oh these phones???? It seems that every day someone comes up with new way to save battery which requires to kill functionality.....Pretty soon we will be asked to turn off the phone in in order to be able to use it an entire day.

LOL....
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] endlesstrail:
Seems like that was a marketplace error. Appears to be working fine now.

Unity 1.31 works well!

Ok for the last couple days I have had low or no signal at random times. What modem works best with this ROM?

- unity v4 kernel - freeze

- virtuous sense 2.0 and wheather/lockscreen apk's from kingdom - freeze
