Will this work on 1.29 to ?
[HTC Desire S] Treti:
Sumary

Hi all,

I ve been using the 1.30.0 ROM for a couple of days now and I'm happier with my Desire S than ever before. It is a lot faster and smoother. Also the better battery performance is better!

Most positive for me is the speed of the GPS fix. It is really fast now, finally! It takes a couple of seconds, whereas before I couldn't get a fix in a couple minute. There are plenty of people complaining about the GPS fix on the Desire S.

Of course the ROM has still some bugs, e.g. 802.1X-WLAN is not connecting and no Google Voice search. Those are major bugs for me.

Thanks again guys! I am desperately waiting for an update!
[HTC Desire S] freaksamael:
Unfortunately not. For most of the features you can use UOT Kitchen.
[HTC Desire S] jepe63:
Oké thx !!

PS: what's UOT ?
[HTC Desire S] jepe63:
Where did you found 1.3 ? Website is still on hold.....
[HTC Desire S] Zlyc:
Yes it does. I flashed it for 1.29 and 1.31 and it works.
[HTC Desire S] jepe63:
> strange ....freaksamael says not , are we speaking of the same ?:rolleyes:

> and where did you found 1.31 ? Website of virtuous is still on hold ??

forget last question , already found it here

http://www.handy-faq.de/forum/htc_d..._unity_1_31_0_sense_3_0_based_on_pyramid.html

and as expected is't 'GREAT !!'
[HTC Desire S] jepe63:
So.... i've got to correct this .....

It IS working on 1.29 and now on 1.31.0 :D
[HTC Desire S] freaksamael:
In principle, it should not be used ...all three modded base files are different, (framework.apk, SystemUI.apk, com.htc.resources.apk) from version to version. If is working, is OK, but you can lose some of the new features added by developers in new version(s)
[HTC Desire S] djdigy5:
Any patch or file to add a battery icon with showing remaining power in percentage instead of stock one in 1.31.0?

Is it possible to change the lock screen to the 2.1 lock screen I love this Rom just can't get on with the sense version

Take a look at this post, works for 1.31.0 too !!!

Just tried installing this with ROM Manager and it didn't work. Should I have done this another way am I missing something. Made sure to do a full backup and wipe.
[HTC Desire S] XuserJM:
Trialsin, you tried to install what exactly? It would be helpful if you provided us with some more details :)
[HTC Desire S] RaiBinger:
Nop... 1.27 better... go back to 1.27
[HTC Desire S] Trialsin:
Sorry, Jakmor, it was very late and wasn't thinking :o

I tried doing a full wipe and installing the Virtuous ROM using ROM Manager and it got as far as trying to install the ROM and gave me an error message. I can't remember what the message was because it was about 4:30 am :eek:

Tried it again just a little while ago and it worked perfectly!

Thanks

Google Voice Search microphone issue & mail settings reset

After S-OFF'ing, rooting and installing this ROM I'm happily running Virtuous Unity 1.29 to full satisfaction. Two annoying issues though:

- On the stock ROM Google Voice Search was working flawlessly, after moving to VU 1.29 the mic sensitivity seems to be nearly zero even when my mouth is basically on the microphone, giving no results obviously. The microphone works great for normal calls so no hardware issue

- When restarting the phone or sometimes seemingly without a cause the mail settings like retrieval size (5 KB, 7 KB, ..), format type (HTML/plain text), and allowed attachment size get reset to their default. I'm using Exchange integration, but I don't know if it gets pushed from server-side or that VU simply loses them

Anyone else noticing these problems?
[HTC Desire S] jepe63:
I'dont use this features , but maybe you should try version 1.31.0 ?

http://www.handy-faq.de/forum/htc_de...n_pyramid.html
[HTC Desire S] Trialsin:
OK status update!

All was working perfectly until I tried to download a few apps.

While downloading the apps my phone froze and would not respond to anything, I left it for about ten minutes and then pulled the battery. Now all that happens is when I turn on my phone I just get the white HTC screen and it stays there. If I try to restore one of my previous 3 restore points I get this,

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log

E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log

Checking MD5 sums...

Erasing boot before restore...

Restoring boot image...

Restoring system...

Error while formatting /system!

E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log

E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log

Any thoughts or things I could do to get my phone back?

Thanks again

hi, what is you guys' battery consumption? i am getting 18-30ma while idle, which is quick high? my hd2 with android was around 3-8ma only, anything wrong?
[HTC Desire S] kartikk:
i get 10-20ma normally

but sometimes rarely i get 30ma

& if you are using current widget try using battery monitor widget,current widget seems to be reporting wrong values
[HTC Desire S] jepe63:

the app is called battery monitor widget,you can get it from the market

Do someone know how to make the status and notification bar transparent? I have tried with UOT without success.

After using UOT you have to use a live wallpaper and another launcher in order to use the transparent status bar.

I notice now that with same setting i could work for 2 days on 1.29 and 1.5 days on 1.31 , so there is a difference....

[HTC Desire S] jepe63:
Did you read the posts below ?? ;)

The battery consumption is better in the 1.29 version

I'll wait for the next release (hopely next week)
[HTC Desire S] kylon:

I will lose something?

I agree, thought battery consumption was pretty bad in the latest release and went back to 1.27 - good enough for me :D

how to turn off email notification sound

Great ROM . But where can i turn off the Email notification Sound from the google Mail app?

And the voice search is not working.after long pressing the search Button the mic seems not to be activated
[HTC Desire S] old.splatterhand:
Is it possible to get the old market back?

Cause the new one needs long time to open/load for me in mobile network.

The old version was fast like a shark in stock rom before.
[HTC Desire S] Steinhund:
You can change the notification in the settings of the gmail app. Open the app, tap on menu, select "more" / "settings". Usually you can change the notifications of many apps like facebook, email, twitter etc. directly inside the app-settings. So you can have different sound and vibration setups for each.

There is a voice search bug in this rom, wait for the update. That was written in the thread already, please read the thread an use the search funktion.

No, its not. You can try to install the old vending.apk from an older rom, but it will be updated by google asap. This is an update of a system app.
[HTC Desire S] old.splatterhand:
The new market isn't releast at the moment here in germany. So i don't think there would be an update so long.

I've tried to uninstall the new market with SystemApp Remover and installed older vending.apk (2.26 & 2.36) but it didn't work.

Would be better, if the old market would be in the rom and who wants to get the new can do this with an apk (my opinion).

When i search the web if have found many posts that new maket lags...
[HTC Desire S] Steinhund:
It is definetly released. Got that OTA even on my old G1 (Froyo OTA Galis Mod) a while ago. I know that the new market lags especially on mobile networks, maybe there will be some updates.

To be honest, why should anybody build a new rom with old apk's? Even if the new market is not released in some areas, in others it is and will be updated. There is no choice of whether you get the update or not.

If you still want to try to install the old apk, try ADB, maybe it works.
[HTC Desire S] old.splatterhand:
Because it is buggy. And updatig is easy, downgrading not.

But there is no need to do this if i am the only one. It is only a suggestion.
[HTC Desire S] kebeil:
Nope, there's no such settings in the Gmail app.That's why i'm asking. Normaly it should be right there but it isn't.

'bout the voice search: thx. i've found it in the bug tracker too. (wer lesen kann ist klar im vorteil) ;)
[HTC Desire S] Steinhund:
That's strange cause if I look for it I find it right there. Switched my settings to English lang to be share I wrote the right way.

Again: open gmail app, tap on menu key, go to more (lower right, the three "..." points), tap on settings, scroll all the way down to notification settings. et viola

Just had a look on my handset an there it is. Maybe I can write you a pm in german if it won't work.
[HTC Desire S] Malooga:
Steinhund is right, i can change my notification settings in gmail too.
[HTC Desire S] TheReaperUK:
If you have updated to the new GMail then to change ringtones do this

1: Open GMAil App

2: Press "Menu" Button

3: Press "More"

4: Press "Settings"

5: Press your gmail account settings (e.g. whaterveryouhavehere@googlemail.com or @gmail.com)

6: Scroll right down to the bottom

7: Press "Labels to notify"

8: Press "Inbox"

9: Now you should see the ringtone settings.

Long winded i no, but thats how you do it now.
[HTC Desire S] Steinhund:
Sorry, you are right. Right now I'm back on rooted stock 1.31 cause, IMO, the cam application works better indor. And there I use gmail 2.3.4.1

In latest Virtuous ROMs the new gmail.apk is preinstalled. You have to go this long way because you can have more than one gmail account. And you can have different notification setup for each account.
[HTC Desire S] kebeil:
Yes thx, i found it too. In german this setting is called "labels für Benachrichtigung". You don't suspect to find the notification sound settings beyond this menu.

Dear Virtuous users,

we just got informed about a phishing site specialized to VirtuousROMs.

It looked exactly the way our real site looks and was promising you access to a 1.4.0 (i guess they are not smart enough the understand the versioning scheme :D ) beta after registering with your email etc.

So please do NOT, i repeat - NOT - enter any information to sites asking you for such.

We are NOT distributing betas to registered users.

The only download sources you should trust is coming directly from 'virtuousrom.com'.

Any other domain is not from us!

The site already got taken down shortly after we made a blog post about it on our site.

Reverting back to 1.29 until next official release.

But keep up the GOOD work Virtuous Team! :p

Is it possible to change the background of (Weather)Lockscreen?

Actually a good question.

I have tried messing around with it too but without success. It doesn't seem to be supported within the settings.

It's a huge file too. 424MB

It states clearly on the site that only a problem for Incredible and Incredible 2 owners.

Nobody has tested it on the Desire S yet, it doesn't work.
[HTC Desire S] patko226:

[HTC Desire S] cjward23:
Good day to you all.

I just wanted to give you heads up as to what my role is in the Virtuous Dev team.

With the growing popularity of the Virtuous Unity the team felt in appropriate to appoint me as community manager. As the project grows the development team wish to spend more time working on the actual ROM. They will still be monitoring all the threads but it is my job to try and offer support to all Virtuous users.

I have a desire Z so my home ground is obviously the DZ forums but I will start spending more time in this thread and offer support and guidance where necessary.

You are welcome to PM me with any thoughts, suggestions and bugs to do with the Virtuous Unity project. If you ever need one to one support or just want a chat. I suggest that you hop over to the #virtuousrom irc channel where I can be found most of the time.

I also wanted to let you know about our teams policy on beta releases. Beta's are not posted on XDA and official support is also not available on XDA. Because a Rom is in beta we need to be able to easily keep track of any issues you may be having. So we ask if you have a bug to report or need support of any kind that you come to the #virtuousrom irc, the link can be found in my sig. You are also welcome to PM me with bug reports but please ensure you give as much detail as possible and include screen shots if appropriate.

I'm also open to any general comments or questions, I have a very limited knowledge of actually dev work. But I do know a little about a lot.

Cheers

One small thing... is it possible to change the frequency of the weather sounds on the main 'start' page? ie: The sounds currently trigger each time we land on the 'start' page... would be great if this could be turned on/off (just for this page). Or, have the sounds trigger one in 'X' returns to that page.

Make sense? Or should I face back into the breeze and wait for next Monday? :)

Just one observation.. Current location in weather screen doesn't get updated, still shows the last location. Nothing too critical though ;)
