Hi Guys!

I did a mod to the autobrithness of the Display to the Virtuous Sense 2.0.0 Rom here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=17401265&postcount=6429

I just looked now inside the values for the Unity one and it seems to me (without installing the rom) that there the autobrightness is also set to high...

So i made a Flashable zip which should mod this to more usefull values.

Feel free to download and try it, if you like it, don't be afraid to hit the Thanks Button.

ATTENTION: I'm not responsible for any damage to your Device!

ATTENTION: Make everytime a Nandroid backup before you flash anything!

ATTENTION: You will losse every modification done to the framework-res.apk!

ATTENTION: I didn't flashed it on my device becaus I'm not running this rom, so please try it at your own risk!

I also attached a flashable zip with the original framework-res.apk to get back to the stock one if you don't like it
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] human-being:
any nice looking battery icon showing percentage working with 2.39?

I found one in DesireHD discussion post, don't know if it works with DZ.

And for those zips, do I just flash it (install zip from sd?) via Recovery like 4EXT and CWM?

anyone have problems attaching a picture on the stock messenger? every time i try it doesnt attach and stays blank, im using Virtuous Unity Full ROM v2.39.0
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] conandoyle:
awesome job~i'm trying this now. Some other 2.3.5 roms have problems with voice application and yours seem perfect so far
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dk2000zx:
You can't, it's a memory issue, try using swap or gosms pro instead

Hello,

when i had virtuous installed and i plugged my htc phone in to the USB input, i could browse the SD card for music...

Normally my car only recognizes iphone/ipad, but i was happy the htc worked too :)

When i plug it in, i choosed "connect as SD card"

Now, with unity 2.39 my car doesnt recognize the HTC, it just says "unsupported device" , what could have changed?

Thnx
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] duk3r:
what's the battery performance of the rom? Every rom that I tried gives me around 29 mah idle through current widget.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] viper2097:
Forget this values, they are not really meaningfull...

The performance can last from 5 hours to 5 days, so it is the best to try it on your own with your own settings and user behavior.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] taob:
Yep, that's about right. ROMs can't make the electronics more power-efficient. I've never seen my DZ go below high-20s when idle (underclocked CPU, airplane mode, display off). Assuming your battery can deliver the full 1350 mAh, that means 67.5 hours of standby time. But that's not a useful number, since you can only achieve that if nothing ever runs in the background and you never use the phone.

Check the current draw when you are using the phone. Display on, sensors on, 3G and/or wifi enabled, etc. You'll probably see anywhere from 200 to 500 mA or higher while actively using the phone. The display backlight and the various radios (3G, Wi-Fi, BT, GPS) will use a lot of power, and ROMs don't have an effect on those.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] viper2097:
I can only say it again, forget this numbers...

With my hd2 i had an idle current about 4mA! And it last only for about 12 to 14 hours with my behaviour...

Actually the desire z should be around 200mA if you wrote it right, and it lasts for me about 30 hours...

but both models have a battery about the same size...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] haithamnayel:
Thnx, I did. . 3rd party SIP applications are working very fine with my account no problem whatsoever. .. are u sure it is the dialer not any other apk relative to connectivity ??? If u r which dialer do u suggest?

Hi,

I have a Desire Z and just installed that ROM.

But I am having some problems.

After a few minutes my phone freezes. I have to pull out the battery.

Is this normal?

Can I do anything to figure out why the phone freezes?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Arrch:
Am I the only one that thinks this rom is laggy and freezy ?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mcse17:
I had the same problems until I tried installing the patch on the 1st page. Its alot more stable now...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mputtr:
read the first post about lagging and freezing. there's a patch for it
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] human-being:
Why the call volume is always at the loudest and there are no changes no matter how I change the scale?

Is it a bug or something? I experience this in both 2.37 and 2.39
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bombadier:
NO!!!!!!!!!!! How many times, sense 3 doesn't rotate.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] uvt_novice:
So many times....Novices, read first post carefully regarding lag and freeze. Mainly, it's result of CPU overclock. Not all phones (CPU) can handle it successfully. Download this patch and flash it in recovery. It will reduce overclock of your CPU. After your phone should be ok.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dk2000zx:
Someone should make a FAQ post or something covering all these issues INCLUDING NO ROTATION IN ROSSIE lol :P
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] haithamnayel:
Well, thnx anyway :)

Guys, anyone can help me with this issue?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] verkion:
This has been noted before by others...but is there a fix yet for the corrupted Widgets when using swap? It certainly makes things ultra smooth...just annoying to have to reboot a lot. And yes, this was on a clean install with dalvik and cache wiped.

Thanks!

Massively noobish situation!

Ok, so I did something dumb.

Yesterday, just before leaving to go on a 3 month trip I wiped and re-flashed the same version of unity (1.31) I was using on my desire z so I could leave it with my completely technophobic girlfriend on a fresh install she could use while I was away.

I get an email this morning telling me she's turned it on and it's stuck on arabic keyboard and she can't figure out how to disable it.

I vaguely remember when I first flashed the rom that it was set on arabic and with the device in my hand it took no time at all to disable it and get it back on UK English.... However, the device is not in my hand and trying to work it out with her on a phone call has gotten us nowhere.

Is anyone here a) familiar with this particular change of settings and b) feeling generous enough to write a n00b-proof step by step I can copy and paste in an email to her?

Otherwise I know for a fact she'll just go without a smartphone for the next 3 months and I wouldn't wish that on anybody!

Memory mapping corrupt?

Hi,

after re-flashing with Virtuous Unity v.2.39.0, i now see that the correct hardware DZ is recognized. I use the radio 12.56.60.25P_26.10.04.03_M. I enabled the swap partition (512MB) the first time. A short time after reloading all (my) application from the scratch i saw this "debris" on every witged.

I tried to reinstall the applications and i downgrade the kernel to UNITY V6, it didn't help. Where can i find the reason for this behavior.

- Dromaius
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] verkion:
That is due to using Swap...which is what I was, and a few others were asking about before...any solutions/workarounds for this?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] htcsuperfan:
Love this ROM. Thanks for the effort.

One problem, Gmail always shows the welcome screen. Other than that, I dont' see myself switching to anythign else anytime soon.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] uvt_novice:
You can remove widgets and add then again to Homescreen, this will fix, but till next reboot.

Better if you Deactivate SWAP, - that is it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] deaththeorist:
its pretty subjective actually. for me it comes back after 20hours. when i plug it in to charge sometimes it comes back too, like in 4 out of 5 times. also, rebooting the phone seems to clear the problem for all widgets. but rebooting resets my oc/uv beater... so sometimes i dont reboot.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] NoFatePPC:
hey, i also had that my hardware keyboard was messed up? how did you fix that?

i also wiped 2 times, but still didnt work...

what hboot version are you on? have you even done that hboot tutortial change for G2 users?

i fixed it eventually by copying over the keyboard files from aother rom ....

thnx
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dromaius:
Hi, I use this one "hboot_7230_Vision_HEP_0.85.0005_101011". I have installed it as mentioned in guide some weeks before I switched to UNITY Roms.

The correct Hardware was recognized after reinstalling the ROM with the ROM Manager, using both wipe buttons.

- Dromaius

---------- Post added at 08:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:08 AM ----------

That means leaving this ROM as a Desire Z owner. Prior that, I will turn the widgets down.

SIP/VoIP keep alive

Any solution for this issue? as it always disconnects & I have to refresh it manually

Quote from older possts

a couple of minor issues exist (like landscape mode in couple apps like weather and stocks), but they don't affect daily usage imho

hopefully the battery life will be good as well

btw free RAM for me was around 70-80 at startup with Sense, and around 110 with LauncherPro.

btw for SIP users like me, i attached the modified framework-res.apk that allows SIP calling over 3G (using gingerbread's built-in internet calling), just copy it with root explorer (or similar) and set the permissions (the small change I made can be seen here)

I would love to see the keep-alive interval setting from CM7, but unfortunately lack the skills to integrate it in this rom. Do you guys think you can do it? The following 3 commits are required (changes to phone.apk and framework.jar):

- Change Ia98ce4dc: res/values/strings.xml

- Change Ic568ee8d: voip/java/android/net/sip/SipProfile.java

- Change I8a58c5bd: src/com/android/phone/sip/SipEditor.java

* I tried doing it myself, though didn't get far. I attached a ZIP containing all the files that need to be integrated, I only could find one xml and change it, the .java files need to be converted to .smali and then added to the apk/jar but I couldn't make it work

did you find any solution for this ?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bruciato:
There is an option to activate the percentage mode for the battery?

Can you post a screencap of what it looks like in action? The battery mod of course.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] CamoGeko:
Really isn't difficult to find this information, did you even look at the links in the OP?

---

"Technical Notes

Virtuous. overclocking daemon will automatically be disabled if an overclocking tools (such as SetCPU or CPU Tuner) is installed. Installing these tools is not advised, as the virtuous_oc daemon responds far more rapidly to screen state changes than any Android (Java) application.

Clockwork Recovery v3.x.x is required.

All filesystems are mounted using ext4 with writeback journaling. Be sure to shut down your phone properly as opposed to pulling the battery when possible."

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] JassyNL:
Actually I háve looked in the OP and didn't found this information. But this isn't answering my question. Isn't there any tool that can change this settings? OC/UV Beater2 is a tool from Virtuous but it isn't working on Unity.

I know that Set CPU and so on do the trick but that disables the Virtuous OC Deamon that I don't want..!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cjward23:
Oc/uv Beater2 works perfectly with unity. Have you recently updated superuser?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] JassyNL:
Yes I have. Is that the problem?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cjward23:
Yeah I have had loads of issues with the latest super user.

I fixed it by going in to settings > applications> manage applications > superuser.

Then uninstall updates and clear app data.

Open the super user app and in settings click update binary.

Reboot phone and all should be good.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jcizzle:
just curious.. are you guys able to play any good games without lag with this rom? I cant play any games at all without lag. i have to uninstall them right away.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Arrch:
I was about to post about that !

Indeed, none of the games I played normally before run without lag now, they became unplayable (cut the rope, angry birds, those i tried)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] oVeRdOsE.:
With 2.39 I dont know, since I read all those comments I'm no ready to try it now.

I use 2.37, because so far almost 0 problem ( only gallery laggy and airplane mode stange).

On 2.37 with 1.2 ghz, class 10 sdcard, I tried games that take the most resources :

- Gangstar from gameloft ( copy of gta)

- 9 mm from gameloft (look like max payne 2)

- NOVA 2 ( looks like halo)

- NFS shift

Can I say lag? not really, its playable. I'll say around 30 fps with nice graphics quality for a cellphone!

Of course, angry birds, plants vs zombies and graveHD are running well.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Arrch:
I can't compare with previous versions of Unity, as this is the first one I try.

But it was okay on Virtuous Sense and ofc with the stock rom I had before.

Is there a national data roaming option in this rom? Like in CM7?

Or is it possible to edit a file so I don't roam in my own country?

I have a virtual provider, so I am 'roaming' on the network. It is very annoying, because I am not really roaming, I am not outside of my country. Every time I travel abroad I have to deactivate the roaming option because at that moment I am really roaming.

Is there a option for it in this ROM, or is it possible to add this option?

I am a little confused here. I installed 2.3.9 on a g2 from a fresh wipe after installing the desire hboot. Why is ghostly SMS installed by default and cannot be removed? I know there are some receiving texts bugs with some gingerbread roms but I did not think this one?

on my mt4g I installed 2.39 upgraded and there is no ghostly sms....
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] NoFatePPC:
also this rom has the problem :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] evilcuber:
You can easily remove gingerbread ghostly sms from titanium backup.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mrvanx:
The SMS bug is still an issue with this ROM on the desire Z and G2, I personally have installed Go SMS Pro (Which is free of charge despite the name), and I uninstalled the stock messaging app with titanium backup.

Since then then ROM has been far smoother and the replacement SMS app is particularly good, especially since attaching MMS content is working fine etc...

Im getting really good battery life, around 51% battery left at the end of the day (GPS enabled, bluetooth on, facebook & twitter synching every hour, gmail x2 and exchange setup for push on a mixture of GPRS and HSPA (3G) throughout the day)

My setup:

No swap (found it caused the garbled widgets issue)

OC awake ondemand min: 245000 max:1228800

OC screen off conservative min: 245000 max: 460800

UV set as default

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] russell1978:
Even with the sms ghostly load I’m not receiving some off my text message until I restart my phone. I didn't know this was issue until read this thread. This still a badass rom come paired to others. Do you have to have the full version of titanium to remove the programs you talked about?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] deaththeorist:
wth? are u kidding me? 51%?? how many hours passed?

Nope. The free version of titanum backup can do that too :)

i have found a weird situation in 2.39 unity, v9-v8 kernel and vision sense 2.00 rom.

-if i flash standard 2.39 unity rom with v9 kernel, vision freezes.

-if i flash old v8 kernel right after flashing 2.39 unity, vision works nice without freezes.

however,

-if i flash virtuous sense 2.00 rom to vision and flashing v9 kernel right after flashing the rom, ..... vision works perfectly:D

so, v9 kernel freezes my phone with 2.39, however works fine with sense 2.00 virtuous rom.

how can you explain this, i am trying to find it for 2weeks but can not reach any explanation:confused:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] F033x:
v9 works on all sense based gingerbread roms iirc

It may not be functional on your phone due to the default uv level that changed from v8 to v9.

Id assume thats why its not working.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] taob:
How long was the display on during those four days, and what brightness level is it set to? I find that the display backlight consumes the most power. It almost doesn't matter what your CPU overclock settings are, etc.

Also, which battery are you using? The lowest power draw my phone reports is around 30 mA. Assuming 1350 mAh in the stock battery, that gives you 45 hours, which is still shy of 2 days of not doing anything with the phone. A 3000 mAh extended battery would give you 100 hours of not doing anything. ;)
