Installed Virtuous Unity 2.39.0 and everything works like a charm.

So far, I haven't encounter any issues.

When i install the final of this link, my opera mobile closes straight after starting without a message (VU 2.39). Strange.

cjward has posted in another thread a link to beats for inc s, this seems to work for me.
[HTC Desire S] Cabanne:
news of the update?

I look forward ;)
[HTC Desire S] fred1050:
Thanks, I search for it ;)

I already have this one on vu2.37, it was working good, but I try it on the 2.39 and the phone don't want to finish booting, it stay on blue "VU" logo, the only solution was to get out the battery and flash the rom again.

---------- Post added at 02:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:18 PM ----------

Are you sure, it's working on 2.39 ?

I already have this one on vu2.37, it was working good, but I try it on the 2.39 and the phone don't want to finish booting, it stay on blue "VU" logo, the only solution was to get out the battery and at least to flash the rom again.

I try to boot 2 or 3 times, but it was the same issue.

Any idea ?

THIS ONE WORK ON V2.39

yes, I've just flashed the circle battery and it's all right ;)

reboots sometimes

i use this rom for several weeks now and i'm pretty happy with it but.....

Sometimes it reboots itself and mostely it happens in idle state.

i used logviewer to see what happend and this one error keeps comming up

rmt_storage wait event ioctl failed

and when i unlock from locksceen i got several time-line errors....

Any idea if this have something to do with the reboots?

device is revolutionary s-off and i flashed the latest radio today to see if this helps...
[HTC Desire S] crescal:
tried to UV less?

the unity v9 kernel has a aggressive UV default
[HTC Desire S] stonedandhappy:
I had/have the same problem.

I upped the voltage by 50, still the same. So I upped it by another 50, not so bad but still happens occasionally.

It mainly happened to me when I plug it onto my car charger.

It was a pain in the ass because I'm a taxi driver and occasionally use it for sat nav and calling out passengers.

I ended up reverting to unity v4 and that solved my problem.
[HTC Desire S] g-member:
I did played with uv a bit, no results, also underclocked.....

none the less it's not related to the errors in the logviewer.....i think it is kernel related...

I'm really need a stable sense 3.0 rom so today i will flash the hyperion rom wich is based on a official desire s rom. I will keep follow this thread

There is enourmous echo on calls initiated by me. Please advise.

I have not flashed any mods or radios. Just came back from RCMix3d Runnymede sense 3.5 and recovered Virtuos with cache, dalvik and system wipe.
[HTC Desire S] HaLjavshchik:
seems like we're close to receive updates :)

I'll hope nobody of the Virtuous team will see this now. But I was able to leak a first screenshot from their new stuff they are working on.

Something with the codename: Trentacinque.

I will try to leak some stuff more. But this isn't so easy. And they should't notice that their is a sniper on the way.

Trentacinque from Italian means 35, so let's see what we'll get :eek:

Good 3.5ROM or 3.0 with 3.5 features :) I have no doubt Virtuous will make this ROM tremendous :cool:
[HTC Desire S] nodeffect:
Is virtuous unity going to be have any new updates soon? I'm talking about sense 3.0 not the new 3.5. Would it base on the official sense 3.0 for desire s?

Seriously now, quote the whole 1st post? Why??

Do you seriously believe that necromancy of a 3.5 yr old thread will be your everyday rom?
[HTC Desire S] Rechargelegend:
Made my desire s S-OFF to day with alparevx beta. So it works.
[HTC Desire S] Mental_Atom:
I can second that, time to install this ROM!
[HTC Desire S] Mental_Atom:
I installed the CRT patch, and now the lockscreen looks odd. The ring is skewed as are the shortcut icons. Any way to fix this?
[HTC Desire S] shrome99:
Did you do a full wipe? You need to wipe dalvik cache, format /system, /data and /cache, and then Wipe data/Factory Reset. Worked for me.
[HTC Desire S] Mental_Atom:
I did a full wipe before installing the ROM, the patch is just a patch so it shouldn't need a full wipe?

The lockscreen looked fine before I applied the patch.
[HTC Desire S] shrome99:
You're right. Patch doesn't need a wipe. Not sure what the problem is............... try to apply the CRT Remove Patch and then see if the problem is fixed.
[HTC Desire S] Mental_Atom:
Found the problem, was ChainFire related. If you enable "Reduce texture quality" it messes the lockscreen up, which is a shame. Might there be a way around it?

EDIT: If I install the pro version I can get around it, so no worries.
[HTC Desire S] yerfdes:

[HTC Desire S] TheReaperUK:
Working fine here.

Just a quick request for next version (or how to do it), possible to increase the volume as its not the loudest phone i've had, i saw on "CoreDroid Desire S GB 2.3.3 V1.2 |SENSE|STABLE & FAST|MDJ Kernel|ONLINE" that his rom has 20% speaker volume increase.

Fantastic rom but i just have one query. I seem to be getting quite a lot of lag in the app drawer. Is that normal?
[HTC Desire S] ben.marks:
does this ROM already... or will it provide anything better if I flash the Unity 2 kernel ontop of this?
[HTC Desire S] gfandrea:

This ROM is really fast and stable, also faster than my stock sensation!!

i find a little graphic glitch: in the app drawer the bottom bar has some problem;

one other question, can i update this rom with ROM Manager premium?

Can i modify the theme and framework just like i could modify on my stock sense 2.1 rom? Or is not that easy? :)

BTW Great ROM. Couldn't fiind any bug.
[HTC Desire S] shrome99:
Sorry, this wasn't the right video, i lost the original one :P

Here's what you do in ClockWorkMod Recovery -

-ADVANCED	-> Wipe davlik cache

-MOUNTS & STORAGE -> format /system

-MOUNTS & STORAGE -> format /data

-MOUNTS & STORAGE -> format /cache

-WIPE DATA / FACTORY RESET

Now your data is gone. Then, go to Install ZIP from SD Card -> Choose ZIP from SD Card, and select your ROM. Your ROM will be flashed. Don't forget to backup ;)

Been there, done that :p No difference. Both LBC Mod and Virtuous Unity are AWESOME. Haven't tried CoreDroid, it's too "eyecandy" for my taste ;)
[HTC Desire S] superkid:
Will try it too haha

Wow, got 2189 score in quadrant.. but i guess its because of the overclock? i will try disabling the overclock and try again :P

Edit: 2086 after the overclock fix:P

-MOUNTS & STORAGE -> format /system

-MOUNTS & STORAGE -> format /data

-MOUNTS & STORAGE -> format /cache

I'm just curious is it me or everyone else got a high Memory Usage? Is it normal for this rom got like 400-500MB RAM Usage and just got about 145MB Free always
[HTC Desire S] GermanDZ:
My "voice search" is not working, I reinstalled from market, but the same problem. Seems to be a mic "gaining" problem o something related to mic volume.
[HTC Desire S] troxter:
Yes this is strange. On Task manager app, free ram is 145mb. In settings>runing services I have 413 mb free. So, what is going on:)?
[HTC Desire S] superkid:
Well i dont do this and it works perfect with the only wipe to factory, i guess he say so to be sure
[HTC Desire S] codryn:
* Same here: In running services i have 435 Mb free and on task manager I have 202 Mb free. Who`s telling the true?

* Second thing: on stock rom when you are dialing a number and is ringing when the others side person is answering you got a little vibration. On VU 1.27.0 I don`t have that vibrate anymore and is annoying because I have to stay with phone beside ear until is answering.

* Third thing: when I want to uninstall something (stock uninstaller) sometimes that app is flickering and if I`m pressing uninstall nothing happens. I have to go back and retry ( 2 time is working always).

* Fourth : I`m losing games shortcuts images (I`m seeing default android image) from desktop.

edit: I used this before installing:

-ADVANCED -> Wipe davlik cache

-MOUNTS & STORAGE -> format /system

-MOUNTS & STORAGE -> format /data

-MOUNTS & STORAGE -> format /cache

-WIPE DATA / FACTORY RESET

btw default OC rate for this rom was 1.2 GhZ.. I edited to 998400 in wake_max_freq. Is this default speed for stock CPU of Desire S?
[HTC Desire S] freaksamael:
Already reported as BUG in public bugtracker
[HTC Desire S] shrome99:
Can confirm that by default, this ROM had 1.2 Ghz, but Stock desire s has 1 ghz - 1017 or 1024 Mhz
[HTC Desire S] codryn:
Ty for reply. Can you tell me please if 998400 is ok for Stock ? If I want 1024 what should I input in wake_max_freq? is ok 1024000 ?

How to adjust the daemon

The daemon is configured with 6 files in the folder /system/etc/virtuous_oc/.

There are 3 files for the wake state and 3 for the sleep state. For each state one file for the govenor, one for the minimal frequency and one for the maximal frequency.

You can easily edit these files eg. with RootExplorer or any other app which can edit system files. So you can adjust the frequencies and the govenor for each state just like with SetCPU.

In order to get the available frequencies for the current kernel, just open your favorite terminal app and type

cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies

You could also use adb shell to show the frequencies on your computer.

To get the available govenors use a similar approach:

cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_governors

Please make sure, you are entering the right values in the daemon's config files.

So, on install, you have 1209600. That's mean you can set there 998400...Other values:

# cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies

cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies

245760 368640 768000 1024000 825600 844800 864000 883200 902400 921600 940800 960000 979200 998400 1017600 1036800 10560

Hello,ask a question, my calendar widgets frame refresh very frequent, there are ways this can be set or it is a problem? Thank you!
[HTC Desire S] freaksamael:
It's a bug...read the bugtracker!
[HTC Desire S] Skanob:
Hi! I have successfully flashed your custom ROM on my DS with the help of AlphaRevX's S-OFF..

I can say that there's a hell of awesomeness on your ROM and think will not change to a different one..

But few things I noticed and maybe some bug reports:

1. Size of dock as a bit small compared to Sense 2.1, is this normal?

2. Choosing a Skin, preview image needs to be resized, its big and eating up the space for the title.

3. Keyboard has arrows? Is that the stock Sense 3.0 keyboard. This maybe comes down to personal preferences but is there a way that I could have the stock Sense 3.0 keyboard, I believe that it doesnt have arrows. Thanks.

4. As of 24hrs usage of the ROM, normal usage, had 2 FCs. 1 is the messaging app, when I changed the skin, I received an sms, stock messaging app FCed. 2. Phone app, I'm trying to send a business card on SMS and suddenly it FCed.

5. The ROM still has the Wi-Fi death grip software problem. Could you implement the fix on the next update? I'm afraid to flash the software fix on it as I don't know how to edit the framework that's needed.

Still an awesome ROM! More power!

P.S.

I completely wiped my phone before flashing.. Thanks again.

P.P.S.

Choosing Lock Screen is the same as number 2.

i am currently using this ROM and this is awesome!!! i just want to ask a few things... how can i use weather lockscreen sense 3.0? and also is it safe to install setcpu?
[HTC Desire S] alexander.kilian:
According to setcpu, read the second post and follow the included link that describes the overclock daemon (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=14529333&postcount=5). Guess that it is better not to use setcpu as the new OC daemon will be deactivated.

To set the weather lockscreen, choose it from the personalization menu (there is a new menu item for the lock screen which was not available in sense 2.1). Works for me.

[Nexus S General] Amritttt:
My first android phone was Nexus One and after a year in December i bought Nexus S. Now i feel that i need a new phone or a tablet,right now i m little confused between samsung Galaxy s2 or Htc Sensation.

The reason i m posting is that many of you guys came from flavored to vanilla phone like Htc and galaxy. So i want to know which phone is devs favorite and has more roms and will be better for gaming and stuff.

Or

Should i go for Galaxy tablet or Asus EEEpad?
[Nexus S General] zephiK:
Go do your own research about Galaxy S2 vs. Sensation. People here at these forums prefer the Nexus S over anything. We get the Nexus series because manufacturers don't have any say in anything. They simply just provide the hardware.

Not being a jerk or anything, but we shouldn't have to babysit you one by one our opinions about what phone to get when we're already enjoying the one we already have.
[Nexus S General] phonepersonality:
It's a tough question because everyone has different needs.

I have used MANY Android devices, I'm almost ashamed to admit.

I currently have the Nex S, HTC Glacier and a Motorola Xoom and I'll probably be getting the SGSII soon.

The Sensation is really nice. I have the ROM with Sense 3.0 running on my Glacier now and it's pretty sweet, but I still would prefer the SGSII without a doubt.

So it's really a YMMV situation, based entirely on your preferences, needs and wants :)

However, I've heard the new Samsung Galaxy 10.2 is currently regarded as the best Android tablet out now. So I hope that helps.
[Nexus S General] phonepersonality:
C'mon man.

Lighten up a bit.

It's a community.

We help each other out.

He asked a harmless question.

That's all.

He clearly lacks experience and is looking for guidance from those that do.

Is that really so bad?
[Nexus S General] zephiK:
It's really bad when you're coming to a respective forum and people are giving their own opinions about the phone when the REAL facts about the phone itself are on Engadget. These phones are made to fit a person's personality. One phone will please one person, whereas, another will knock it down because it's simply not what they're looking for.

Galaxy S2: http://www.engadget.com/2011/04/28/samsung-galaxy-s-ii-review/

Sensation: http://www.engadget.com/2011/05/27/htc-sensation-review/

I'd go with the Galaxy S2. That's just me. Happy?

I just find it really rude to come here and start talking about two phones that have absolutely nothing to do with its respective forum. People here (especially Sprint) users just got the phone and it's making them have regrets in buying the NS4G because with this thread, it makes the NS seem like an obsolete device when development for the NS/NS4G is starting to boost.

Sensation XDA: http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1109

Galaxy S2 XDA: http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1055

Note: Going to one of those forums and asking the same thing, they will most likely side with their phone because its a biased post. Just like how I'm standing up for the Nexus S. However, it may be more informative since they ACTUALLY have the phone in their hand and can list their personal experiences with the phone rather than us providing our experiences based on our readings from tech blogs. Fair?

Quad-core phones are coming out later this year with the upcoming rumored Nexus device anyway, which will most likely be the flagship "Ice Cream Sandwich" device. The leaked roadmap for NVIDIA Tegra lists that Tegra 3 (Quad-Core 1.5GHz) will be released within this Fall.

And since the Nexus S is a Nexus device, it will be one of the first phones to get "Ice Cream Sandwich" (or whatever it will be called). Having that in mind KEEPS me on staying with Team Nexus. Because there's really no reason to go out of Team Nexus when Nexus devices are getting their updates directly from Google including a fully deoxed ROM being released in a short period of time. ESPECIALLY when these devices being released are not optimized for Dual-Core (or above) usage. It doesn't matter if it has a 8-core CPU, if the OS doesn't optimize those cores, then it really doesn't matter. That's the end of the story.

Anyway, enough of my ranting. I hope this makes you stay with Nexus devices because they are truly unique phones and people should learn to appreciate them more. We will get our updates faster than any other phone and to be honest, I don't trust any manufacturer that determines whether or not when I will get the OTA. Even still, CyanogenMod does a great job on keeping users at the highest Android OS version possible but a stock version of the latest will help. Especially when Nexus devices are un-bloated and built from AOSP for the most part.

[Nexus S General] sjtscott:
I prefer the overall non-branded android phones hence the nexus S I currently have. Had an HTC before and got kinda fed up with the bugs/issues and SLOW response from HTC to provide firmware updates.

I've had the Nexus S since Dec 2010 and I've already had four firmware updates! ;)

Friend at work has the SGS2 and its a nice phone.. though I'd prefer it without touchwiz naturally lol
