danke dir :)
[HTC Desire S] Jahai:
Which theme did you use on the screenshots in your first picture?
[HTC Desire S] vidwhal:
Is this rom still being maintained?

Hi I realise that the original dev is on hols but is he planning on picking up this ROM and continuing it?
[HTC Desire S] deadwilder:
if you want some aosp rom, try this one http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1235864
[HTC Desire S] first_damned:
I was using that oxygen rom,

Very good rom but caller can hear there voice echo. For that reason I had to change roms. I am now running BinDroid sense rom, i have to say it is nicely themed and fluid.
[HTC Desire S] Naff:
Dont suppose this rom will be updated anymore?
[HTC Desire S] first_damned:
He's away on holiday for a few weeks but will hopefully be back soon with a new updated rom
[HTC Desire S] first_damned:
Anyone got any news if this rom is going to get a update?
[HTC Desire S] Jenson_P:
It would be sad, if this ROM is no longer developed. I still use it and it works great for me.

But maybe it's time to move on to ICS... ;)
[HTC Desire S] docertabum:
yes, maybe it is a time to move to ICS. It's nice and definitely looks different than Gingergread. However you always can use CM nighties. It works well. Latest build is from yesterday.
[HTC Desire S] Nickamina:
I'm not sure if there would be much point in updating this anymore just because it'd be tough to differentiate itself enough from Reaper for people to see it as worthy of flashing.

As harsh as it may sound, the theme was quite nice but other than that, ZuluGen just feels a lot like Reaper's spiritual predecessor.

Although back when this was current, this used to be my favourite ROM. :)
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
edit......
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
[3/8/11] ZuluGen 1.0.2

- Themed: Lockscreen Tabs

- based on newest nightly 2.3.5 (GRJ90) source
[HTC Desire S] alain.duchateau:
Great Job ! thx for that.

I have one issue in this rom, the gmail app force close again & again... :-)

For the rest ( Call, sms, Gps ) it's ok for me.
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
de-install and re-install gmail again. i had some issues with some apps i restored with titanium backup
[HTC Desire S] bioan:
Could you also include stock theme ? I could get it from a CM package but not everybody wants to do this.

I cannot find the SmartAss governor in CM settings. Does it work only with SetCPU or noFrills ?

Thanks !
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
no default theme is not an option, sorry. for those who don't like it the blue theme, just install cm7 nightlys

you can flash the tiamat kernel in the tiamat thread, there is smartass available. i will implement it in the next release
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
[4/8/11] ZuluGen 1.0.3

- fixed transparent background in statusbar

- compiled from latest source code

- several minor fixes

- added new Tiamat Kernel
[HTC Desire S] teddy_irish:
With every build is getting better. Thanks!
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
that is how it should be :)
[HTC Desire S] shrome99:
the updates are pretty quick. I'll try this soon.
[HTC Desire S] teddy_irish:
The new market apk is running really fast. It's much slower on the original ROM. Battery drain seems to be normal for the moment...
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
sounds good :)
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
Battery life is awesome in the last release
[HTC Desire S] vampire36:
Yup nice cfw,,,,

Seems fast and smooth...

Gr8 u gave launcher pro...absolute fan of it...

Btw a few queries...

Is the screenshot taken from htc desire s...

if yes how to get the battery info like shown on it...i mean the wall...

also on the notification bar battery aint like u shown...the lightnin like :)
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
Aeh, the lighting appears during charge. The blue battery icon is default in the rom. Disable the cyanogen % bat and you see the blue one
[HTC Desire S] vampire36:
Na i meant the 1 written as words on wallpaper :P
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
Minimalistictext widget
[HTC Desire S] crubbish:
I still don't observe transparent status bar with 1.0.3 version. Neither with regular nor with live wallpaper. Did you mean notification pull down transparency? Cos status bar is solid black...
[HTC Desire S] teddy_irish:
When you pull down the status bar it's transparent. It works straight after flashing the ROM without any tweaks and it looks great.
[HTC Desire S] vampire36:
Thanx...gottcha...Cool rom...

Fast and stable...

Good Work :)
[HTC Desire S] codding:
Bluetooth works guys ?
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
should work
[HTC Desire S] vampire36:
Is the drain on the higher side ???
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
what exactly you mean? generally you all must wait about 2 days and the check battery drain. it usually takes some time till the phone system calibrates the battery right.

atm i am testing about battery and it seems to be not bad (about 1-2% an hour on sleep) but i am not sure about the smartass governor in the kernel. smartass is fast but a little bit unstable. perhaps i use ondemand in the future but i need more testing here.
[HTC Desire S] ponchofiesta:
Is there an easy way to get back the CM7 default theme (green, not transparent, lockscreen sliders, battery)? I'm only interested in the performance tweaks :)
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
hmm you can take the /system/framework/framework-res.apk and /system/app/SystemUI.apk from my unofficial cm7.1 and push them onto your phone...that should do it.
[HTC Desire S] bioan:
I think it should work if he gets the apk's from the Theme chooser (CM7) and applies a theme.
[HTC Desire S] alain.duchateau:
This is the right solution
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
oh yeah, right
[HTC Desire S] vampire36:
I guess you should look into...

Cos even if not exact but you get to know if a particular rom is draining or not...u dnt need 2 days...Calibration can be done approx in a few hours...

So guess u should check
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
i'll check ;)
[HTC Desire S] Malooga:
Loving this rom as a whole, still got the problem that usb tethering doesn't work though.
[HTC Desire S] ponchofiesta:
OK, I also used the theme chooser (but there was only one theme (current). Now the notification bar and lockscreen is in default CM7 style but the controls (menu hover color, textbox borders...) are still blue.
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
i thought that...man it the way i described and it will work :)
[HTC Desire S] djsubtronic:
Your phone history is similar to mine!

Siemens C25 - Nokia 3210 - Nokia 3330 - Ericsson T68i - Nokia 6610 - Nokia 6230 - Nokia 6233 - Nokia 6300 - Nokia 6500c - Nokia N78 - Nokia N79 - HTC Legend - HTC Desire S.
[HTC Desire S] Malooga:
I doubt my phone history would fit in one message :D
[HTC Desire S] crubbish:
Hi trismegistos, you've missed my question I guess...
[HTC Desire S] bioan:
I think you've done something wrong. Please install this apk (http://www.mediafire.com/?2h2rfrw2114raw8), go into Theme chooser and you will see a new theme cyan coloured. Apply it and report then if it works.
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
yeah sorry.. yes i meant the pull down bar :)
[HTC Desire S] ponchofiesta:
@trismegistos

Sorry, it was not clearly. I pushed the files you've mentioned. I got back the original notificaion icons but not the menucolors etc. and the battery icon had a problem with the little bar on the right. So I started the theme chooser and clicked apply. After this the battery icon was OK. But the controls (menu item hover, textbox border on focus, checkboxes) are still blue.

@djsubtronic

Nice history. The difference is, I never really liked Nokia :D

@badeaioan

I installed it via Recovery but theme chooser still only shows "System"

PS: Multiquote does not work in this forum... this sucks :-/
[HTC Desire S] bioan:
How did you install it via Recovery ? It's an apk. Get a file manager and just install it like a normal app.
[HTC Desire S] ponchofiesta:
I got a zip file. OK, I renamed it to apk and installed and applied the theme. Now everything is cyan. If I switch back to "System" I get some green and some blue... same as before.

Do you have a APK with the default green style?
[HTC Desire S] Naff:
I am having issues with sending an recieving files over bluetooth can anyone confirm?

Also sending MMS, recieving is fine
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
perhaps it regards to the kernel. there will be an update tomorrow with a new kernel, then potential Batterdrain will be fixed to. currently i have 14mA in sleep mode which is as it should..
[HTC Desire S] tcchuin:
hi,will try your rom after you released an update:)

just realised that non-sense rom is so small in size(80mb++),
[HTC Desire S] ponchofiesta:
With your current Cyanogen build and ZuluGen I don't get under 38mA. I try now to set min CPU freq to 192 MHz... but I don't think this is the main problem.
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
it is the kernel.. i release an update (perhpas only a kernel zip) today, that should solve it.
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
Kernel Update

..........
[HTC Desire S] teddy_irish:
Why did you delete the link with the kernel update? I downloaded it and I'm ready to flash that kernel. Should I proceed or not? Thanks
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
hehe :). i deleted it because i am uploading a complet new version from latest cyanogen code ....the kernel is included there. so you should wait 15 minutes till the rom upload is finished,
[HTC Desire S] teddy_irish:
Sounds great! But meanwhile I will update the kernel coz I'm damn curious :) Danke sehr!
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
Changelog

[6/8/11] ZuluGen 1.0.4

- newest gingerbread code

- new Kernel

please report on Battery :)
[HTC Desire S] teddy_irish:
Download link, please?
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
first post?
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
folks, i am really sorry but i must re-upload the 1.0.4 version because there was an error in the battery % mod. it only shows every 5% a new charge number...thats not a huge bug but it was driving me crazy, so i fixed it and reuploading again.....15 minutes it is up again.
[HTC Desire S] ponchofiesta:
Still not under 38mA :(
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
this is strange i am at 18-23mA.

can you have a look in spareparts what uses most ?
[HTC Desire S] ponchofiesta:
"other usage" and "since last unplugged" (not so long ago) says:

running 13,8%

screen 11,5%

wifi on 99,9%

wifi running 69,6%

Turning off WiFi makes no difference in power consumption.

I'll try a factory reset now. Perhaps there is an app or setting that eats battery :)
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
one user told me, that he is using the mdj unity kernel and only looses 2% in one hour... i am trying that too
[HTC Desire S] Nexx:
Ran your ROM overnight, it's power consumption is in-line with the other AOSP ROM's I've tested, though none of those come quite close to the Sense ROMs + kernels.

Average consumption is 10mA with WiFi on, 3G on, bluetooth and GPS off.

GPS defaults to on, make sure you shut it off. Mine has lost 7% battery in 12 hours, but that's with use it hasn't been idle that whole time.

Running 1.0.3 btw.
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
thx with the default kernel which comes with 1.0.3?
[HTC Desire S] ponchofiesta:
There seems no app or setting to be the problem. I still have ~40mA after a factory reset (enabled wifi, added my google acc, installed currentwidget).

I would say it's a cyanogenmod related problem but why does trismegistos get a much lower power consumption? O.o
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
yeah and see neo and superkid has the same low voltage oO

i would look on this by an other side..do you loose more the 1% bat. per hour in sleep mode?
[HTC Desire S] ponchofiesta:
Hmm, hard to say. I give it no attention because in my experience with a fully charged battery it goes slower down and with only ~20% left it goes faster - no matter which ROM (my subjective opinion). But it could be a bit more than 1% per hour.

To check if it is only on CM ROMs, I installed and tested a clean stock ROM again. I have only 24 mA with the default stock ROM.
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
please check unity kernel from mdj...16mA currently

EDIT: 14mA

EDIT 2: 12 mA
[HTC Desire S] tcchuin:
just to remind you all,use current widget for measuring...battery monitor widget is giving exceptionally low(incorrect) values.
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
totally right
[HTC Desire S] ponchofiesta:
Awesome. But I get on first 3 measures with unity kernel: 40, 46, 48 :(

(but actually with your CM7-KANG build)
[HTC Desire S] Nexx:
Yup, stock kernel from the ZIP.
[HTC Desire S] gscollier:
Force closes

Nice ROM, subtle UI and I want to like it but I am getting force closes on Power Amp, Locus Pro and Swiftkey so far. Tried fixing permissions with ROM manager, did a full wipe pre-install but these apps are just not working.

Any ideas?
[HTC Desire S] vampire36:
So finally which kernel to use...

The one with 1.0.4 version or unity v2 ???
[HTC Desire S] shrome99:
Don't use Unity, it's a Sense Kernel. Try the one in the ROM. If there are problems, go for the Tiamat Kernel.
[HTC Desire S] n1c00_:
Hi

Nice rom. Fast and pretty stable.

Couldn't stand lockscreen. It's simply too big and ugly. Tryin to be constructive... :o
[HTC Desire S] vampire36:
I guess the kernel with this rom is Tiamat itself...???
[HTC Desire S] Naff:
I also have a drain between 40 and 50 mA, zulu 1.0.4 standard, i have tried everything turning all radios on and off ect. nothing helps :/

Edit: with Superkids CM7 port i get around 20 mA :o
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
Deinstall the app and install from new from market
[HTC Desire S] ahanson86:
My current widget generally says between 100 ma and 200 ma but has been above 400 before
[HTC Desire S] ponchofiesta:
I just installed superkid's CM7 build. Actually I get ~24 mA, which is much better than before. I'll restore my backup now and do some configuration and further testing.
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
I think if you wait 2 hours it gets up to 40 again :(
[HTC Desire S] shrome99:
WHAT ?!?!?! I get 5-7 mAH. I guess the ROM doesn't have the latest Tiamat kernel. Get v1.0.4.1 and report results
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
It has nothing to do with the kernel. When I have a charger plugged in I get 8 mA. And on any kernel + aosp rom i have sometimes 20 but most time 48 may. It ducks....
[HTC Desire S] ponchofiesta:
Till now I get an average of 22mA. Looks really good to me.

EDIT:

I charged it yesterday afternoon and this morning (6 o clock) it had 97%. I'm very happy with it.
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
sounds good. what kernel/rom?
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
ok gyus, i think i'm comming near what causes the bat drain...update today i hope
[HTC Desire S] ponchofiesta:
Oh, you edited your post. I downloaded your ROM and tried it. I'm at 38mA with it.

I used, as I told one page ealier, superkid's CM7 build.
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
sorry forget the link i posted....i think you use the beta?

it seems that there where changes in the desire s ported files that i havent included..doing from scratch now....think will fix it..
[HTC Desire S] tcchuin:
please tell us what is causing the battery drain when you found it out..thanks:)
[HTC Desire S] Jenson_P:
I don't know what's this battery drain discussion all about, but I am very happy with this rom. ;)

I switched from the stock rom to this one and after one day of normal use my battery is at ~70%.

With the stock rom I had to use Juice Defender to use my Desire S a whole day, this is now obsolete! So thanks very much, this rom works perfect for me.
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
that is fine :)...the drain is not affected to everyone, that is the wired thing.....but i think it is completly solved now. we are currently starting from scratch and solving some little issues...but i think there will be the next release soon..
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
[8/8/11] ZuluGen 1.1.0

- newest cyanogen nightly source

- Battery drain fixed (Yeah) (some wrong libs in the last source)

- newest google APPS
[HTC Desire S] Malooga:
How long until its uploaded? As the link on the first page gives me a 404 error.
[HTC Desire S] ahanson86:
Link has a , instead of a . On the end 1.1,0 should be 1.1.0
[HTC Desire S] Malooga:
Cheers, downloading now :)
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
link fixed, thx!
[HTC Desire S] mak1966:
need help

hello to all

how can i add arabic language to this rom

Thanks for help

mak
[HTC Desire S] deadwilder:
so what was the cause of batt drain?
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
a wrong library which communicates with the radio.
[HTC Desire S] Fionn.Jia:
like it

finally can post ! :)

thank you for working on this nice rom

but on my ds,my camera can't auto focus ,my mistake ?
[HTC Desire S] djsubtronic:
Ok so I tried SuperKid's ROM, this one (after battery fix), and stock HTC ROM, but no matter what, my battery NEVER goes below 28 mA (Current Widget) or 14 mA (Battery Widget Monitor).

What battery usage (and which app?) should I be getting when the phone is asleep using this ROM after the battery drain fix?
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
you should get rounf about 18mA 28mA is to high
[HTC Desire S] djsubtronic:
18 mA on Current Widget?

Seeing as this is happening on every ROM, what else could it be?
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
yeah on current widget....have you wiped by switching between the roms?

as you wrote 38mA this was exactly what i got before we fixed the battery drain so i think you are perhaps on an old version??
[HTC Desire S] teddy_irish:
With the latest build my current drain is 9 - 11mA. By the way I achieved the same battery drain with the stock ROM too. But I like the smooth and fast Zulu :)
[HTC Desire S] djsubtronic:
Did a full wipe, downloaded ROM last night after battery fix update (http://dl.x-source.net/update-ZuluGen-1.1.0-DS.zip), rebooted, did not install any apps except current widget and OSmonitor, waited until all the media storage/processes finished working, then left phone on idle. I got 28 though, not 38 mA.
[HTC Desire S] djsubtronic:
One more thing, what kernel is included? When I flash Tiamat 1.0.4.1 separately, the version shows "cayniarb@prime#29" but the one showing with ZuluGen is "cayniarb@prime#1"
[HTC Desire S] teddy_irish:
I downloaded the last build from 1st page last night. Installed after full wipe of cash, dalvick and battery stats from 4EXTRecovery. Kernel version shows: 2.6.35.13-cyanogenmod-ge74e0c5cayniarb@prime #1

With 107 apks installed, wi-fi constantly ON, gmail and facebook sync all the time is giving me 9-11mA on idle.
[HTC Desire S] djsubtronic:
Thanks - are you getting 9-11 using Current Widget or Battery Monitor Widget?
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
included is a "special" made tiamat kernel for cm roms. in the next version i will switch to the next release of tiamat kernel....if it is released till then
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
9-11 mA is no drain, thats totally normal :)
[HTC Desire S] teddy_irish:
Battery Monitor Widget
[HTC Desire S] teddy_irish:
Yes it is :)
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
in current you should get 18mA
[HTC Desire S] teddy_irish:
So which one is the right one? :)
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
i don't know...i heard something that the monitor app does not work right, but i can not akcnowledge that.....never tested it. but since the reason for the drain is found, i deleted currentwidget ;)....
[HTC Desire S] datoml:
Hey,

I can confirm it. Battery drain looks like its fixed =).

But I am still a little bit confused. I plugged my handy off from the charger in the morning like 6am and now 12am it still says 100% battery life.

If it is really so...awesome battery life :D...but maybe its a display bug.
[HTC Desire S] teddy_irish:
It's not a bug... it's real :) I get the same on my stock ROM - stays more than half a day on 100% after charge. That's the way it should be.
[HTC Desire S] datoml:
Thanks for the info.

Then GOOD WORK m8! :)
[HTC Desire S] djsubtronic:
Going to try this ROM again, maybe I should play with it for the whole day before deciding. But my target is 18 mA... let's see if it drops below 28 today!
[HTC Desire S] vampire36:
Yup downloading almost done...

Finally drain has been fixed...

Btw guys which launcher do you guys prefer...

I kinda love launcher pro...smooth and fast ;)
[HTC Desire S] teddy_irish:
Same - Launcher Pro. Looks better and it's fast and smooth.
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
launcher pro of course :)
[HTC Desire S] tankos:
Battery Drain looks a lot better - overnight I was getting averages of 14mA... Great work! :)

(with CurrentWidget)
[HTC Desire S] teddy_irish:
I was trying to play 720p video downloaded as mp4 from youtube. It is playing perfect on the stock ROM with the stock player. On Zulu the stock player is not opening it at all. Other players play this video but laggy... Any other of you guys noticed such an issue?
[HTC Desire S] djsubtronic:
Yes, noticed that no videos play, not even the ones recorded from the camera.

And I'm still having no luck with power usage going below 28mA (CurrentWidget). So I have had to go back to CM7.
[HTC Desire S] gingernator007:
Great rom thanks. I rooted my mates desire s for him and installed this, he's happy. It's a good stop gap until offical CM7 support comes (maybe you should offer to be the maintainer for desire s?)
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
Hi, i am not interested in being the maintainer for cm7 because it takes a lot of time i don't want to spend. I am developing 4 Roms 2 for the nexus s and now 2 for desire s, that is enough :). If you want to make things right, do not try to make everything :)

I think superkid is the right person for that
[HTC Desire S] vampire36:
Myn when off around 16 and goes as high as 200+...lets c how it averages through the night :)
[HTC Desire S] superkid:
I am more like starting everything, giving the first push so things will start moving, dont sure what i will maintain and what not :P

Still, working on 4 projects atm :P
[HTC Desire S] deadwilder:
hi

it's been almost 24h with this rom so i think i can post some observations :)

battery drain - it's improved, but stock rom has been doing better. in 24h lost 54% of batt with few txts, 1 call and little browsing (including 9h sleep overnight). GSM data, wifi and gps turned off all the time (enabled manually only when needed). so it's not really good...

video playback -already mentioned; haven't tried with youtube, but camera videos cannot be opened - gallery app crashes

facebook app - works only for 1st time after installing. after this, some strange log-in screen appears (web-like). after logging in, only error is shown (something went wrong...) works now. guess fb had some server problems

3g watchdog app - it's impossible to add 3g watchdog widget to hoemscreen. widget is not shown on widgets list

wifi - i have impression that it's somewhat slow and signal strenght is worse comparing to stock rom

config:

kernel - not touched; @245/1024MHz; ondemand

radio - 20.28b.30.0805U_38.03.03.11_M

didn't update the radio, so maybe doing this will help a little with wifi and/or batt life. do you recommend some particular version?

besides that i find this rom fast and stable so i'll stick with it :)

thanks for your work.
[HTC Desire S] vampire36:
Battery thing finally...

Do this delete battery stats...charge the phone for say around 8hours...

after that go into recovery again and delete battery stats again...

Dat should give u a perfect battery with calibration :)
[HTC Desire S] Naff:
Battery drain is fixed for me in 1.1.0 great job thanks!

Dont know if it have been mentioned before, but video play is not working :(

Keep up the good work!
[HTC Desire S] datoml:
After 48hours testing and still 30% battery... my bugs what i have found.

* Video dont playing ... makes apps crash

* Youtube App dont working

* Camera works but sometimes says, cannont communitcate with cam. Restart helps

* Facebook apps sometimes little bit strange.

greetings
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
Will look in the video, cam and YouTube thing
[HTC Desire S] trismegistos:
I found the bug with video, YouTube and video recording. I think there will be a fix in the next days
[HTC Desire S] datoml:
Great news!

Looking forward to the fix.

What was the problem?
