Orange Romania, upgraded to 2.3.5, Sense 3.0, Software number 2.10.401.5

So far, still syncronizing like crazy...something. While moving like a Nokia :D
[HTC Desire S] al89nut:
Anyone know the situation for those of us who never got updated before, eg still on 1.28.401.1?
[HTC Desire S] Dessloch:
I just received the Sense 3.0 update for my device but I have 2 problems:

The Power Option menu doesn't appear on long press and I'm unable to switch off the Weather Sound Effect. No matter that the option is enabled or disabled.
[HTC Desire S] fasty:
I saw a "Power Option" problem reported by a couple of other users after the earlier (partial) rollout a couple of weeks ago.

They claimed that a long press of the power button did not produce the usual menu which allows them to shut down or reboot the phone etc.

I would urge any other users who have already received the latest update to test this feature to see if it is a common bug.

Can any developers explain why some people might be affected?
[HTC Desire S] Garz.SP:
Many users in spanish forums reports the same problem with the power off option.
[HTC Desire S] fasty:
:eek: This sounds like a bit of a show-stopper. Keep us updated if it sounds very common.
[HTC Desire S] Dessloch:
Is there anybody to confirm the weather sound effect bug? I'm not able to turn it off and that is driving me crazy.
[HTC Desire S] Garz.SP:
At least four users of htcmania.com reports this problem since this morning.
[HTC Desire S] Mankio:
I thought I was the only one having the problem with the power button menu, but seems that is a common issue :(

I wrote to the HTC Support asking a solution. If everyone who has this issue writes them, maybe they will soon understand that is not a "single user issue". ;)
[HTC Desire S] Dessloch:
The sound problem?
[HTC Desire S] Garz.SP:
Five minutes ago, one more user affected by "poweroffgate" in spanish forums.
[HTC Desire S] Dessloch:
Just wrote an email for the Support about the issues.
[HTC Desire S] fasty:
My fear is that many users who have upgraded will probably not have even tried this function yet. The issue could be even more common than we first think.
[HTC Desire S] Garz.SP:
No, sorry. I did not hear about that in Spain.

Good luck!
[HTC Desire S] kamei:
Ive got the power menu when pushing long on the power button and no problems with sound settings for weather unbranded s-on holland
[HTC Desire S] Dessloch:
I fixed that, I found out the weather live wallpaper did that sound, I switched to another and it stopped.

By the way the new Market has some issues too. I'm not able to update apps because they are just loading and loading and loading at update...
[HTC Desire S] kutafas:
Same problem with Power Button on my device.

BTW: now we can make screenshots with PowerButton + Home combo :)
[HTC Desire S] bronx:
Lol... I'm starting to regret that I s-offed and rooted my unbranded d.s. :) No joy for me, so I guess it's time for some cooked roms... :rolleyes:

Ditto too, unbranded Virgin Mobile with version : 1.47.351.2 - You?

Cheers
[HTC Desire S] al89nut:
Version 1.28
[HTC Desire S] youagain:
I never got updated to 1.47 via OTA for some unusual reason. I only received a minor update to the OTA system which according to the forums was something you needed before the 1.47 update was pushed on. That never happened.

When the reports of Sense 3 broke there was a lot of suggestion that those on 1.28 couldn't update directly so I went here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1002506 and downloaded the generic HTC Europe 1.47 update and updated my phone.
[HTC Desire S] al89nut:
Interesting. Same here. How did you do that if not rooted? Please explain in idiot proof steps!
[HTC Desire S] Eclipse_Droid:
you simply just run the RUU and it flashes it;)
[HTC Desire S] youagain:
I'm an idiot myself so I dont have the confidence to root and s-off. It was a case of downloading the file which is an .exe file. You run it and you get a screen with step by step instructions. Ultimately its a case of hooking your phone up with the USB cable and clicking update on your PC.

You do loose your settings and preferences so you have to reset them up.
[HTC Desire S] Garz.SP:
Some users reports another problem. The new keyboard feature (something like swype) doesn't work. Anyone has the same bug?
[HTC Desire S] korenisko:
I had power menu problem too. I make reset and its ok now...

Edit: its still there, cant switchoff phone :-D

[HTC Desire S] alabama_man:
I hereby confirm the BUG of the POWER BUTTON.

No menu shows up when you hold the power button for a few seconds, letting you turn off the phone or restart it or put it into airplane mode.

The same happens on a friend's Desire S.

I already did a restart (removed the battery and turned it on again), but no change.

I will try a firmware reset in the morning.

My desire is a German Amazon branding and provider free phone from end of March.
[HTC Desire S] doremo:

[HTC Desire S] Andrius.21:
It seems that after updating trough OTA my phone doesn't have the Power Button bug.

Long press displays menu to POwer off, Airplane mode and Restart.

I have the feeling that it takes a bit longer to display the menu
[HTC Desire S] deephallow1:
Yeah, it does seem to take quite a bit longer before the power menu comes on. I was already afraid i had the bug or so :p
[HTC Desire S] emile75:
Got mine today. Finally. #nl
[HTC Desire S] faraaz:
No power button bug here. Works like before......
[HTC Desire S] Andrius.21:
I found something.....hopefully it's not a bug because if it is it will be very anoying.

My battery was at about 15-17% and I got a call and the display wouldn't turn on, not even after pressing the power button.....

After that the battery probably went under 15% the screen wouldn't turn on. I plugged the charger and now it's ok. I also disabled the save battery under 15% option. Hope that will solve it.
[HTC Desire S] mariuck:
guys with the new update did they fix the sms app ?? like now if u delete in landscape mode does it appears the delete by selection menu? or the keyboard in landscape is it fixed ?

i mean this bug : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-0mrte9_8s

and is the phone more optimized ? i mean less spikes or smth like that ?
[HTC Desire S] alabama_man:
About the Power Button Bug

So I just did a factory Reset on the phone, and the button seems to work fine now. It feels like the menu takes a second longer to pop up but at least it does now ;-)

Just got the same update myself.
[HTC Desire S] blews:
Since the update the "battery usage" doesn't work: as a shortcut it doesn't refreshes at all (it shows the status/status graph at the latest restart) and through the Settings/About menu ... i don't know - soemtimes refreshes the status but not the graph or inverse (just now the status is stuck on 28:52 while the graph is at 46:36, but 20 minutes ago the graph was stuck and the status was ok).

update: through the Settings menu it's ok, just doesn't refreshes when on charger. But the shortcut's still stuck.
[HTC Desire S] Dessloch:
The support just replied to my email:

"Thank you for contacting HTC technical support, please perform the hard reset on your device. That is sometimes necessary after update. Please make sure you back up all your data on SD card. If you need any further assistance with hard reset, please send us your request and wi will guide you through that all."

So, I have to do a hard reset to get my Power Option Menu back.

[HTC Desire S] specialc:
hah :) I found something what is missing from 2.3.3 version.... it's not that important but ok...

so, when you go to "all applications" where are listed and you want to sort it by date (from newest to oldest) you can! but you can't sort it from oldest to newest!

I miss that. but ok, i can live without that.

and also in the "all applications" you can see now the left and right edge. This was not in the previous version.

And about power button, yes, it takes a second or two longer like before to show you the menu.

1 question?

does anybody know how to change the clouds where message is written. This is also something new with 2.3.5. I would like to have like before in 2.3.3.
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:

[HTC Desire S] Mankio:
Just to keep you informed...

HTC Support told me to start the phone in "safe mode" by pressing the Volume Down button shortly afterwards the HTC Logo appears, but I had no luck and the phone started normally. The second suggestion was to do a hard reset and the third to send the phone for repair. :mad:

So, a few hours ago, I decided to try the hard reset, and I've to say that the problem is solved and the phone seems to run lighter than before :confused:

Maybe this OTA update modifies too many system files than expected, and something can go wrong.
[HTC Desire S] Lucifix:
Can anybody please confirm that the size of update is 227.24MB?
[HTC Desire S] VVV84:
Hello from Finland. I updated the phone with the latest firmware yesterday and soon noticed that the Car panel app (Navigation shortcut for Locations) was missing. In addition to that, the Locations app has stopped working. Every time I try to open it, it just force closes.

I also tried to do a few factory resets, reinstall the Locations app, update the maps and other files, but all in vain. Any idea what the issue could be here? :confused: I have at least three other confirmed cases of this happening after the recent update. Sadly, it seems that the update wasn't so ready yet after all...

Ive lost the HTC Battery widget. Cant find it on the HTC Hub for redownload and its no longer on my list of installed widgets.
[HTC Desire S] VVV84:
Some other HTC widgets are also missing. Including the word of the day widget. Hopefully the misfunctioning Locations (which I really hope to be fixed as soon as possible) and the missing widgets will be fixed soon... Apart from the few bugs and missing widgets the updated system seems to work lot more fluently than the 2.3.4 Sense 2.1 version.

Btw. is it normal to have only around 100-130 Mbs of memory free without any apps running after the update?
[HTC Desire S] youagain:
Reinstalling locations worked for me. Just get the locations widget and you should see an error and a prompt to tap it. Then it gives the option to reinstall. Worked for me. I dont like the size of font used the app menu plus. Prefer the 2.1 look. Other than that working fine. Just hope the battery widget returns.

PS, I have the same memory situation as you so it must be normal then.
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Yep. I don't trust that task manager though, because if you go to the running services in settings, you actually have 200-350mb!

Don't use tasks killers by the way! Let it close on its own !
[HTC Desire S] VVV84:
I actually already did a factory reset, reinstalled Locations, formatted the memory card and did an another factory reset with the backup data option disabled but all with no avail... It just refuses to start.

Despite the "missing" RAM compared to 2.1 the CPU/GPU intensive games and apps seem to run better than before so I guess everything is fine on that front. It's just the Locations that is really bugging me now... :(

Didn't get mines via OTA but there is an official RUU you can download and install. Check the Desire S development forum.
[HTC Desire S] steelbeans:
Nah that RUU doesnt work unless you got a 'non carrier' software build. Tried it with my virgin mobile UK Rom and kicked it out! So gna have to wait for OTA or use the gold card method to 'un'carrier it then install that ruu, bit of a faff if you ask me, would rather wait!

I'm a very picky person. A few visual changes which I don't like.

1/ Names of the apps not fully visible in the app menu (used to be able to see full names)

2/long pressing on a phone number in a text message no longer selects the whole number but just the particular number your finger is on. Works fine when selecting words though

3/ Lost a fair few HTC Hub widgets

4/ Text on the homescreen looks ugly when using a light coloured wallpaper because text remains white without the little grey bubble.

any ideas how to solve this problem?
[HTC Desire S] Fetz Braun:
You should read this thread ;)

Press the botton a few seconds longer, it takes a longer time the menue appears. This is becouse of the screenshot funktion.

If this not helps, do a factory reset (you will lose your data)

For the moment no, in safe conditions, because the new version is installed on different partition type and is not working with HBOOT 6.xxxxx. Updating official rom is ok only if you have S-ON and HBOOT 0.98.0002 or 0.98.0000

it seems a bit of a shame really because when I was on sense 2.1 (stock Rom) I was getting bugs and reboots and as soon as I first rooted and put a ported sense 3.0 Rom on my device (virtuous unity) it was stable as could be and quick. I just think HTC have fallen behind with these updates because people like myself are now looking at sense 3.5 and any xda developers Rom I have tried seems to be more stable than any release that I have received from HTC. Just thought I would express my opinion on a topic which is great for non rooted users and for developers who can create an amazing native sense 3.0 Rom but which eventually everyone will look to the next step.
[HTC Desire S] hekermeker:
What I did is I created a goldcard and using that goldcard I've changed the branded Orange France rom to a default one, the WWE 1.47.....
