when I open adfree, superuser already request to allow root permission for that app.

I'll try this "fix permission from recovery" :)

I hope it's working..

Why don't you remove the quick buttons and use the Power Widget instead?
[HTC Desire S] bongo1:
Sorry I wasn't clear I couldn't remember the name of it. I was actually referring to the power widget were u scroll across the top. I prefer the setup where you have a "Quick settings" tab in the drop down like in CoreDroid, just wondering if maybe there was a flashable add on to change this.
[HTC Desire S] djsubtronic:
Home -> Menu -> Settings -> CM Settings -> Interface -> Notification Power Widget -> Widget Buttons.

I flash CM7 for two weeks and last night I flash Tiamat 1.1.5 (KERNAL)......hope it will work well for me
[HTC Desire S] sadsac:
Im on cm7.1 and using tiamet 1.1.5 with no noticed issues so far (about a week)...
[HTC Desire S] bongo1:
I understand that - I'm saying I prefer a setting like this :) Is it possible to flash something similar as an add on?

So actually I understood you correctly. My suggestion was to use a power widget on the home screen instead (click here to see what I mean)
[HTC Desire S] Hafficci:
Morning!!

I'm on CM7.1 for 2 days, enough time to write down my feelings: smooth and clean.

I came from Sense 2.5, so I did a full wipe before flashing CM. At the beginning, I flashed Tiamat 1.1.5, but didn't worked well for me (drainage, some FCs), so I reflashed the ROM and I'm using three default kernel. More happy I am!!

Don't know if I should make a battery wipe, because its hard fire my phone to get 100% at charging, and jumps from 92 to 100 at once. Anyone with this weird issue??

Cheers!!

he want the power widget inside the drop down menu :)

anyway u can get this in MIUI.
[HTC Desire S] bongo1:
I understand, But its not quite what i'm looking for. Thanks anyway tho.

skumara : I'm sure you can get it in MIUI and a load of other ROMS but I like CM overall so want to keep with it

Im not getting any FCs with 1.1.5, and no noticeable drainage, though Ive come from stock gingerbread, via a few days on LBC Saga Mod...
[HTC Desire S] freaksamael:
Issue "in call volume is always reset to maximum after reboot no matter what setting you had it on before" is solved in nightly #31, via libaudio - updating device volume as per UI volume level

It was a ROM issue (CM bug), not a kernel one.

for me Tiamat kernel 1.1.5 - 1.5 - 2 full days, heavy usage (calls 2h, WiFi, data, games).
[HTC Desire S] djsubtronic:
Just tried #31, the bug still remains (in call volume is reset after reboot).
[HTC Desire S] bjohv052:
Read the nightly thread for an in-depth explanation of why this is the case.
[HTC Desire S] Sam Trevi:
I have installed CyanogenMod for DesireS and rom manager (with premium license).

When I try to check for ROM updates form rom manager it does nothing (nether connect attempt nor any message) in download rom menu I do not see CyanogenMod nightly builds as-well.

Is there any solution?
[HTC Desire S] Rapier:
Maybe someone can help me identifying the problem I have. For the second time I had phone reboot for apparently no reason. I was in a call and suddenly it reboot. BT was activated during call since I was initially connected to car-kit, if it does matter somehow.

Don't have anything special installed (I think), no overclocking, running CM 7.1 stable, CM kernel not Tiamat, interactive governor, latest radio 20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04.

I'll try for several days the Tiamat kernel even if I don't find any reason for using it (CM kernel seems to be perfect for my old Legend) and see if something changes

I also attach previous kernel log as instructed by Nexx in the nightly topic, I hope it will be helpfull.
[HTC Desire S] 777.300:
I owned the "normal" Desire for 1 year and was running the great Ginger Villain Rom.

Yesterday my Desire S arrived and i was very impressed by the phone.

Rooted the phone, including s-off, and flashed this CyanogenMod 7.

All running great, quick response and super fast.

Thanks for all the work on this great Rom.

I have two questions about this Rom.

- formally on GV i could see the a2sd partition in Titanium Backup. with this Rom Titanium does not show any ext partition, is this correct and why is this?

- Currently I'm testing 3 different launchers, the stock ADW, ADW EX and Launcher pro. So far AWD EX is in favor. However good battery life is an must for me, anyone tested these launchers and noticed any differences in battery life between those launchers?

Hope someone can answer my questions.

GO Launcher EX? Plus extra skins and widgets.
[HTC Desire S] 777.300:
Is it good on battery life?
[HTC Desire S] freaksamael:
yep, but usually screen brightness and radio eats a lot. Take a look on light levels at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=17440149#post17440149

and use a proper radio. For me 20.48.30.0822U_3822.09.08.20 suits best.
[HTC Desire S] nk111:
I also would suggest Go Launcher EX. It really rocks. I also use GO Contacts and GO Keyboard. No need for Sense anymore :)
[HTC Desire S] docertabum:
my previous device was Hero. I was looking for apps2sd as well. but then I found out you need no more such feature here (because of desire s specs) ;)
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
Desire S has 1.1 GB data partition. This is plenty of space for android apps (5 MB average size per apk) so probably you will not need to install apps on the SD card (which is the purpose of sd-ext partitions). But if will ever need such partition you can always create one or more with a preffered size via 4EXT Recovery (link in my signature)

I use launcher pro paid with Jonny Sekhon's ICS theme.

I thought the standard launcher in CM7 was ADW launcher, or at least exactly the same?

[HTC Desire S] MarlX:
Hey guys, I just flashed mine to CyanogenMod and is sad coz I can't find tun.ko module. :( I've been searching here in the forum but no luck.

Do any of you has one? Share it please. Thanks!
[HTC Desire S] freaksamael:
Flash Tiamat kernel; after that you'll have the module in /system/lib/modules

Unfortunately this module belongs to this kernel - it's compiled for it; it can't be used in other kernel.
[HTC Desire S] 777.300:
Launcher

Did some testing on different launchers.

Switched between ADW, ADW EX, Launcher Pro and Go Launcher.

Found out that they are all quick, smooth and working great with one drawback: Battery life is not great with all of these launchers.

Followed the link provided by Shrome99: http://bit.ly/vhzs0s and installed the Gingerbread stock launcher.

Not as quick as above mentioned launchers but still quick and responsive enough but with a great plus: battery life is much improved, big difference with other launchers.

Battery life is very important for my so i will stick with the stock gingerbread launcher, Launcher2.

Now looking for the most battery saving Kernel, any tips?

Harald
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
Can you share please how much is the difference as time period and what is your total runtime between charging? Thanks
[HTC Desire S] 777.300:
Unfortunately I don't have the exact figures on paper.

With stock launcher i'm now 11h 30m on battery, normal phone usage and still at 74% of my battery life.

On ADW EX it would be much lower.

Harald
[HTC Desire S] shrome99:
I love the stock launcher, it's really good, and pretty fast. The app drawer has a great effect (i guess it's called 4D. Its minimalist, and power efficient too. I don't customise a lot, so i prefer this over ADW.
[HTC Desire S] 777.300:
Now 2 days on stock launcher and it is really great. Battle life is improved and that's important too me. I do not need all those launcher tweaks.

Thanks for your tip.

Harald
[HTC Desire S] sadsac:
I'm confused, isn't the 'stock' launcher ADW?

I have my launcher pro set up nice with dock with 15 shortcuts and swipe gestures. Would consider switching for better battery but wouldn't want to sacrifice dock and shortcuts...
[HTC Desire S] shrome99:
ADW is STOCK on CM7. The truly stock GingerBread launcher is the one that is on the Nexus S/One by default. I use that. Link in my sig

So im trying out zeam laucher will report back I was not happy with stock adw laucher as it seemed sluggish the more I used it.

Normal phone usage: 10x calling, 1h music playing, played games, checking and reading email, using whatsapp, newsreading and did some browsing.

For me this Desire S has more than excellent batt life, much better than the old Desire I formally owned.

Great phone and superb Rom.

I can not get how you guys get so much battery life with your desire S and Cm7 + tiamat kernel.

My battery lasted 21 hours untill phone switched off, and from battery stats i see that the phone was awake the whole time.

A little help please?
[HTC Desire S] sadsac:
Yeah thats definitely not right. Something must be keeping it awake.

I get a day and a half out of mine and just checked the graph and it only shows as being awake intermittently - I think only when the screen is on.

Hopefully someone might have some tips on how to track down what's keeping it awake ...
[HTC Desire S] :
Download and install this....

http://db.tt/7WF2e1t0

Which gives you battery usage stats tracking. Leave it for a complete charge cycle, then open it up and select partial wake locks. It'll show you what's kept your phone awake.

Edit: Got the app from here, maybe a newer version is available...

Look in the market for Watchdog Lite. A free app that shows exactly which other app is using the CPU and is keeping your phone awake.

There doesn't seem to be too much difference i have noticed between launchers its just a matter of taste but i haven't tried stock gb laucher can't get apk to install but for now I'm sticking with zeam laucher plain, simple and does everything I want
[HTC Desire S] budingyun:
well i'm satisfied with gingerbread launcher. minimalist i can say. ;)
[HTC Desire S] :
But i can't put gingerbread on so can't try it i tried to install apk but won't install
[HTC Desire S] :
Just put stock gb laucher on. This seems very minimalistic will try this out
[HTC Desire S] :
Stock gb laucher is really fast and smooth I'm really happy with it. Only problem seems to be that only 3 dock icons can be used and the pinch on home screen doesn't show all home screens. Other then that it seems very good. I must stress that if you love your customisation avoid stock gb laucher
[HTC Desire S] budingyun:
so how the experience? :D
[HTC Desire S] :
Stock gingerbread launcher is great, any help with having more then 3 dock icons?

Been using wifi all day for about 6 hours and battery is 40%. Will update more though
[HTC Desire S] budingyun:
in the oxygen rom there is a setting to make the launcher show 5 icon, but i dont see the setting in this gingerbread launcher though.
[HTC Desire S] :
Yeah i don't see it either. I'll check what oxygen is i don't know what it is lol
[HTC Desire S] bioan:
Oxygen has a modified Launcher2. You can extract it from the ROM and replace it on CM.
[HTC Desire S] budingyun:
thanks for the tips. :) the launcher in oxygen rom is faster though.
[HTC Desire S] :
Ah i see, I'll see what it does, if it's meant to be faster than launcher2
[HTC Desire S] ysfsuleman:
Hey guys,

I'm quite new to ROMS and stuff. I am currently running ARHD but I initially wanted to flash Cyanogen but wasn't getting any signal. So I stuck to ARHD and have now again decided to give Cyanogen a go.

Thing is, I cant get passed the no service problem. The radio I am am using is 12.54.60.25U_26.09.04.11.M2, which works fine on ARHD but in Cyanogen 7.1 I'm getting "Baseband Version: Unknown".

Please let me know if you can think of any solutions that might solve this problem.

Thanks.
[HTC Desire S] freaksamael:
Are you sure that you have a Desire S (aka SAGA) not Desire HD? :confused: Anyhow, before you flash a (new) rom a full wipe is strongly recommended. You can do this in CM recovery.
[HTC Desire S] ysfsuleman:
Hehe, you're right. posted in wrong thread... i did do a full wipe by the way. Still having same problem. I just gave the latest Nightly a try as well, this time its saying that my SIM PIN is incorrect.

[HTC Desire S] AndrewMe:
I met the random reboot issue on this ROM. 1-2 times a day. What could it be or the advise will be the same? :o
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
This rom is outdated, it will last some time till a new update arrives.

Till then i would recommend to use the nightly instead, it's even really stable or use reaper rom a modded version of the nightly (also stable), you find it in my signature.
[HTC Desire S] AndrewMe:
Well... This is the last stable NOT nightly ROM from CM, actually. Since october there were no other NEWER stable releases - only nightly ones. That's why I installed it - didn't want to risk playing with nightly builds... Something changed in definitions and now stable builds are named "nightly" as well?

Anyway, thanks for the tip and info about nightly are being stable as well :)
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
Have missed the point that this is the stable, sry, had changed it already, but you were to fast with your reply and saw the original version. I thought it was the last unoffizial release of nexx before cyanogen began to support our device.

You see how long i haven't been here^^

It will take some time till a new stable release will come and i'm even not sure if there will be any new cm7 release or if the next stable version will be cm9, but since then like i said use the nightly or reaper. I would recommend reaper, but it's your choice.
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Yes, there will be a scheduled CM7.2 release before CM9 ;)

That's why they are still releasing nightlies ;)

I'm very tempted to sell my Sensation to get an Amaze.

The backlight sensor and dedicated camera buttons sound SO useful, not to mention the extra bit of RAM and the proc as well.
[HTC Sensation] The Janitor Mop:
It's somewhat tempting, but I'll easily be able to hold it off since I will never get a LCD screen phone again.
[HTC Sensation] faux123:
CPU is the same as sensation just that for sensation, HTC decided to under clock to 1.2 instead of 1.5GHz which is native speed for this chip. Camera sensor seemed to be the same but the software drivers is upgraded to user zero shutter lag zsl drivers to enable faster photography.

So the real improvement is the extra button and more physical ram.

Nope. Waiting for Snapdragon S4 phones. Should be 30-50% faster than current A9 phones.
[HTC Sensation] CB620:
I don't use sense on my sensation so I wouldn't be missing much. I would rather have a thin light device. The vibrant was a keeper only reason I got rid of it is because of the launch of dual cores. I won't be paying $500 so it will be a upgrade for me regardless. 16gb onboard and 32gb plus that and I always wanted a 4.5in screen ever since I seen the infuse.

IDK the Amaze looks kinda like a jacked up MT4G.The only phone i would give up my Sensation for is the PRIME "maybe" but only for ICS.Im not a big fan of samsung.I bought an sgs2 and after a few hours i wanted to smash it with a hammer.Felt like a toy in my hand.Gave it to my girl and apoligized to my Sensation ;)
[HTC Sensation] D_monie3:
I am in the same boat, I am really wanting something different from my Sensation, but am lost on what to get... The Amaze seemed cool at first, but with the points I have seen, it is not worth it. I think I will go the Galaxy route, as well, since I love the sheer size of the screen.

BUT, I really want to get the Nexus or a WP7 phone. Tmobile seems to have just dropped off the WP7 wagon, and pushed all its resources to Android. The only phone that I have "heard" that will be coming out is the HTC Bresson, and who knows what will happen with it. The new Mango update seems to have attracted me enough, and I love the stability of WP7.

Any ideas how the timeline for the Nexus and possibly how better it will be then these current gen devices?

Yea, Id go for a nexus prime, but something tells me it will cost a hell of a lot more than I could get for my Sensation. I have the dust issue, so I could call in a care package.;)

How much were those nexus phones when they first showed up?

Matt
[HTC Sensation] nrvnqsrxk:
Nope, the changes on Amaze are too marginal. If I were contemplating an upgrade, it'd have to have significant improvements over the Sensation.
[HTC Sensation] D_monie3:
Thats what I figured... Guess its a toss up between the SGII and the Nexus.
[HTC Sensation] 02CWRX:
I'm thinking about it. The Amaze has a bigger battery, but thats not really a big deal since you can buy a larger one for the Sensation. Some of what I've read says the processor is actually different (S3 in the Amaze vs MSM in the Sensation), not to mention the little bit of extra RAM. Also, the Amaze features NFC (Near Field Communications) which the Sensation does not have at all and might be fun to have on hand since its a developing technology. The Amaze also has a 2 MP front facing camera, whereas the Sensation only has a 0.3 MP VGA camera.

I just bought my Sensation last week on a whim since my old Blackberry finally died not knowing there were two more coming out right around the corner. I can still return and go to the Amaze easy enough, so I'm seriously thinking about it.

~T.J.
[HTC Sensation] aNYthing24:
The Sensation has the same processor. Just underclocked.
[HTC Sensation] D_monie3:
The only thing that excited me there, was the front facing camera. And yes, I would for sure take it back and get the Amaze, kind of a no brainer.
[HTC Sensation] skywalker1970:
Would think about it only if the "amazing" devs we have in sensation develop for the amaze.

Seriously tempted by the nexus prime, although it sounds like it may be a little on the large side so I'm gonna view one first.
