Just what i had asked for!!

Thank you so much for this!

My vacations just got a steroid infusion. Will stay on Endymion and as soon as i get back i'll try to put together a review for everybody.

BTW, where is everybody? This is a 3 day old Sense 3.5 ROM!!! Why are there only 92 posts and just 10 pages in the thread?

What happened to all the flashaholics? I'm barely seeing activity here.

C'mon guys, give Endymion a spin. Hyperion is always available as a safe fall-back strategy.

Nand backups everyone. I want you here!! :D:D:D
[HTC Desire S] det66:
Think it's just that Hyperion is THAT good mate

---------- Post added at 04:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:35 PM ----------

D/loading now mate and will have it flashed ...in a flash lol.

Once again cheers for all the effort you put into these
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
I KNOW brother!!!

But i think everybody's forgotten how Hyperion became what it is today...:rolleyes:

Besides what lowveld has been continuously doing to it :p, it was the hottest topic of discussion here! The interest generated was electric!

We're comfortable now because it's reached v2.0, and is as close to perfect as a sense 3 ROM has ever been, but remember it went through v1, v1.1, v1.2 AND v1.3 to get there!!

It's time to push Endymion through the same milestones, and it'll eventually happen, but there's no zing here, no hunger!!

Forgive me for sounding all starry eyed, but I am!! I love this ROM, just as i do Hyperion.

But unless we grill it and give lowveld something to do for it, it'll just stagnate...

P.S. : Just mumbling out loud. I know the Sense preference and font size is a very subjective thing, so no pressure. Just a silly man rambling on about what he loves!! :D
[HTC Desire S] det66:
I agree totally mate ,really like this rom and am using it ,(haven't got round to changing my sig as I was waiting to see how this panned out).

I like Sense 3.5 and I like some of the features on this :)
[HTC Desire S] MasterDL:
I think the crowd is over at proxuser's runnymede port as it has been a continuous development.

But I do think this rom has the kernel advantage origin, its more stable than unity v10.

Camera panorama as confirmed is the only bug I've come around on all of the sense 3.5 roms otherwise all is well.

I think there's no harm for more people to upgrading their hboot, it is more responsive in my opinion.
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
Could you please elaborate?

I've been hearing a lot about the new hboot and stuff, but never really got around to upgrading mine as all ROMs out currently support the old ones.

If its not too much of a bother, could you kindly list out the pros and cons of changing my current (Revolutionary) hboot to the latest one?

While you're at it, what exactly is the function of an hboot and how does a newer one superior to the old one...? (Making noob face :confused:)

This question goes out to both MasterDL and Lowveld... and for that matter anybody out there kind enough to answer. :)

---------- Post added at 09:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:49 PM ----------

Finished downloading... flashing now. I'm doing an upgrade over v1.0 instead of a clean install. Lets see how it goes.

Is it just me or did the v1.0 leave only 4.9 MB of free space in the system partition? Is that too low or something...? Never had so low space on system before. I hope its not a problem (dunno why i just noticed it)
[HTC Desire S] crescal:
@lowveld: extracted the endymion kernel for runnymede s. it's working well (and the panorama problem is quite random IMO)

gonna try this one out after making a mod for runnymede s. the endymion looks really promising!:D
[HTC Desire S] poppy8x:
Still bug with camera panorama mode ?

when i use ver 1.0, i killed camera app in task manager, and then i didn't open it again :( always restart to fix it.

the system partitiononly only have 4.9MB of free space, and ~12MB of free space when i flash RCTweaks :)

i'm using hyperion 2.0 :D Best rom with me :)
[HTC Desire S] harshs23:
Ok, I maybe alone on this but if someone could check and confirm-

When the phone goes to power saver at 10 or 20%, as set, once you connect the charger, the power saver mode settings remain in my case. They do not switch back to the normal brightness and other vibration settings, as set by default. Have to restore the settings manually.

Swyped from my HTC Desire S using xda premium
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Stopped using powersaver a while ago, because of that reason.

I noticed that problem on all ROMs, (LeeDroid, LBC, VoidU etc)

I think it is a HTC problem.

I don't is use anymore now :)
[HTC Desire S] nnila:
How do you disable it? Just change each setting one by one so they don't activate any more?

I sweat there used too be an option to do it now I can't seem to see it.
[HTC Desire S] harshs23:
That's strange, 2.2 is the first time I'm facing such an issue. Has always worked as it should.

Swyped from my HTC Desire S using xda premium
[HTC Desire S] tommyhot:
I don't have any issues with power saver.
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Changed your power savng settings to 'normal or high performance'
[HTC Desire S] kire.htc:
Can somebody please tell me what is the default mV for Endymin kernel 2.0. I know that they are stock but i forgot what were the stock mV because i change few kernels i play with UV and now when i restart the phone OC/UV Beater show as default UV my last set UV. I can't reset default UV.
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
The top one is 975v.

[HTC Desire S] hekermeker:
No need anymore.I never had 2 days battery life with any rom.

Now I have,with this 2.2 Endymion.Best rom for now!!!!

Only issue remaining is HTC Hub.
[HTC Desire S] Steinhund:
I think t problem with HTC hub is related to the fact that the ROM is not really designed for this phone. Everything there works fine instead of the Apps & plugins section. There is, as far as I remember, no such in original DS ROMs so that may be the reason. But it's a long time ago since I used my last non custom ROM so I may be wrong about this.
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
Well, if you use a 3.0 rom, that section works. Also there's reports that it also works on bliss ports. Here the issue is that we're reporting the device as Runnymede, and I'm not sure that it's working for the original Runnymede.

Ideally I'd like to get my hands on a real Sensation XL and see if it's working there. Sadly I can't.

Cheers

P.S. Before anyone tries it, downloading the apps and plugins from a sense 3.0 rom and trying it here won't work.
[HTC Desire S] JagSem:
Anyone else noticing a significant battery drain on standby?

Since I unplugged the charger it has lost 10%+ where before it would stay at 100% for maybe four or five hours after unplugging

It has undervolt and I'll include the setting in attached pics. I've removed some of the recent applications I've installed and yet it persists.

Any help on this appreciated.
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
I suggest you change both wake and sleep governors to "virtuous".

I've had very good experience with it...
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
Well, I'm not experiencing this. I suppose you did calibrate the battery after flashing, right?

That "symptom" of staying at 100% for hours only happens when you do in fact charge the battery to the top, because the discharge is not linear.

One example: if you charge the phone to 95% and then reboot, once booted it will show 100% when it isn't, and the numbers will go down much faster.

Could be something like this. So I would recommend you calibrate your battery. I think there's an app on the market to easily do this, but I do it the manual way:

- plug in the charge, and leave it plugged for a couple of hours after it says it reaches 100%

- unplug the charger

- delete /data/system/batterystats.bin

- reboot

You can also reboot to recovery and wipe battery stats from recovery, at least with clockwork mod.

Cheers, hope it helps.
[HTC Desire S] JagSem:
Im not convinced with this as I've never had a problem until I flashed this new update. I agree with some of what you said in particular the linear dischage. I'm will to try this though as I really like this ROM and want to keep it.

It has been on scary since I flashed the update but I will try that and see what happens.

Cheers all.
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
I'd still suggest you try virtuous in both awake and sleep states.

There's a reason this is now the default governor for Endymion...
[HTC Desire S] JagSem:
Cheers, I've done that. On scary it was losing 1-2% every 30mins. Seems to be fairly stable now. I'll keep it like this for 24hours and see how it holds up.
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
So you guys don't think I'm making this up :):

WiFi and autosync on for 26 hours or so. Some 3g data. No overclocking and no undervolting, stock v2.2, still 20% left.
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
Nice.... :D
[HTC Desire S] JagSem:
I'm lucky to get 16hours on mine. In the day I can spend 5+ hours surfing net plus streaming radio. I use mine a lot. When I had the original Desire (amoled) I sometimes had to charge it twice a day.
[HTC Desire S] Steinhund:
The max frequency in sleep mode is way to slow. If the phone has something to do while sleeping it needs some power. So this can be the reason. I don't overlooking, underclothes or change anything else instead of the min frequency and the governor. And I'm fine with that.

I always have enough power left at the end of a normal day, always everything turned on.
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Me too :D

I use virtuous.
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
And..
[HTC Desire S] tommyhot:
My battery lasts for days :) I'm using the lowest auto brightness settings for display (which is perfectly fine for me) and turn off wifi and mobile data when I don't need them.

[HTC Desire S] noodles2k:
I think Android cuts power to the cpu when in sleep, so it shouldn't make a difference.
[HTC Desire S] mohits143:
Actually, how much your battery will last is majorly on how much you use it. How much your screen is on. All these tweaks could just add up say an hour or so for a person who uses his cell all the time(all the time screen is ON). And it could add a a considerable time for a person with normal usage(frequently on/off).
[HTC Desire S] Metallurgico:
1.3 GHz OC with -100 mV UV

24h here with my normal use:

Music + airplane mode at night

3G always on the morning + 2.5h display on

Some wi-fi + display on and gaming on afternoon and evening

I'm happy with this ROM since I can do everything I want in a whole day with no problems
[HTC Desire S] JagSem:
How do you know that you've -100mV uv'ed it?

I've got these settings, but it it's not obvious to me just how much I've undervolted it.
[HTC Desire S] Metallurgico:
I'm sure it's -100 because I pressed 2 times the -25 button on the top right, tested for stability, then re-presses twice and tested for stability
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
Bad Airplane mode!

It's worth knowing that in my experience AIRPLANE mode serves no purpose on all Sense based ROMs that I've tried on this device, AIRPLANE mode actually uses significantly more battery than your device would normally (approx 3-4 times the battery consumption)....so is pointless - unless you're on a plane ;)

obviously a bug somewhere but no one I know has ever resolved it? :confused:

If you go on an airplane then I'd recommend that you power your device off in order to save battery.

The battery killer apart from the screen is mobile data use.
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
I'm on 46% brightness always. I turn data off too when I don't need it :)
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Really?! Are you sure?

I don't use any monitoring apps, but when I leave my phone on for standby, it loses battery faster than when I leave it on flight mode for a couple of hours ..

(Also my topic about no signal = battery drain)

Hmmm, done really see the logic in this, where is the extra battery usage coming from if radios are off?
[HTC Desire S] Bocciolo:
Guys what radio version are you using? just ask to compare radio to battery usage
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
Based on all previous experiences of AIRPLANE mode I simply avoid it, there have been many previous threads mentioning this in the past.

Although, I hadn't checked this recently with the latest build and radios, so I've just re-tested AIRPLANE mode battery consumption and nothing has changed,

My device goes from 5-6mA to 19mA once its turned on. These figures are quoted from the history log file from battery monitor widget pro that I always have on home screen.

You're right Oly there is no logic in this, it must be a bug (or possibly an error in the way that the battery consumption is reported when in airplane mode - although I doubt this) it's basically cr@p! as we should be able to enable this mode at night to save maximum battery, but it simply doesn't work :mad:

Any thoughts Lowveld?
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
You've been awfully silent recently... :p

What's cooking in that kitchen of yours..? Last I checked you were planning to start working on a ROM of your own.

How's it going, the hush-hush project? ;)
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
Hello, No project I'm afraid, I did make some minor UOT changes but that was it , to be honest I can't see the point in my own ROM now, I love this one too much!

I've just been busy with life, home renovations and other gadgets - Hi-fi/home cinema etc... still been reading just not putting in much input other than INDEX updates.
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Glad to still see you around ;) I did notice your absence too :p

Did you notice this problem on the stock ROM too?

Anyway, when I don't need my phone I mostly put it on hibernate mode..

At night I switch it off fully though :)

So most of the time its not on flight mode, mainly hibernate... Dont know if this still affects he drainage though!

Last night I forgot to switch it off, and left it on hibernate for 7 and a half hours. I lost 3% battery... Is that good?
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
Problem has existed since day 1, it was well documented when the device first came out, but has been forgotten about since....I believe that the issue doesn't happen in CM ROMS.
[HTC Desire S] det66:
At night mines normally on charge so never notice or use airplane mode.If I'm actually on a plane I do turn it off completely
[HTC Desire S] Metallurgico:
Well.. I have no issue since the battery percentage stay the same the whole night.. or it seems to stay the same.

By the way I use airplane mode to avoid radiations at least during the night
[HTC Desire S] Metallurgico:
I've got a question: it's possible to have some kind of USB host on the Desire S? Or it's a hardware feature that is impossibile to have on this device?
[HTC Desire S] djkac:

lowveld , is this any use in the rom ? or is it something that can't be adapted for Endymion ?

[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
Don't know mate, but ill take a look!

Cheers
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
That'll be great thanks! Perhaps can you look into the playback bug too?

If you are free! Cheers!
[HTC Desire S] det66:
Sweet ,looks like it could be an answer to the alleged camera bugs
[HTC Desire S] noodles2k:
looks like it'll work on Endymion, but needs the media profiles to be adjusted for the DS's camera.
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
Don't bother with this... As for image quality improvement, it can all be done in media_profiles.xml. I can increase the bitrate if you want to, Endymion already records in 720p h264 with no hickups.

The included camera.apk crashes in panorama mode (allways), and does not record audio. So it's a no go.

Cheers
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
Any news on the Bliss quicklaunch?

Been fooling around with the files myself, and i think that to get it to work as i does in the Rhyme, thw Bliss rosie has to be replaced too... the one included with RCMIX tweaks appears different from the actual one from the Rhyme...:confused:

Aargh..!! Wish i had chosen a different line of work! Just not good enough to do this myself... so HELP!!! :p
[HTC Desire S] zyotty:
The camera doesnt record sound in 720p mode?

[HTC Desire S] ahmed_ais:
I have a problem!

First, thanks for the awesome ROM. It is very smooth and efficient.

However, i have a couple of problems.

The first, while using "Friend Stream" widget. When i tab a post it opens in a new window. if the post had a picture and i tab it, i get this error:

I don't know why or what to do.

The second problem concerns arabic. I successfully enabled arabic on the rom but to type i used 3rd party keyboards. Is there anyway to have HTC Stock Arabic Keyboard for this ROM?

Thank you,

Ahmed.
[HTC Desire S] karma0321:
coming from Hyperion with some fear because i thought it was the perfect rom for my desireS, now i feel like i have a new phone, this endymion is an amazing rom and maybe it performs even better than the other one...

thank you! :D

---------- Post added at 05:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:36 PM ----------

ehm, can somebody explain me what is this supposed to be? i have a dock charger but when i plug my phone on it it just says it's charging, i don't see any news.. maybe my charger is not recognized as a dock? or is it all about something else?

thank you :)

P.S. sorry for double posting...

EDIT: Sorry, I found it, I didn't see it because I have my phone set in Spanish.. dock mode is there and it's awesome! :)
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
It certainly peforms better than sense 3.0, as HTC optimised it better :)
[HTC Desire S] Mr. Death:
Hi, I've got very strange problem. I'm loosing EDGE signal and it shows unknown network and it can't even see neighbors cells, but I can call and even GPRS works fine.

It's Endymion V2.2 with Endymion 2.0 kernel, 20.48.30.0822U_3822.09.08.20_M radio and HBOOT 2.00.2002. I can change radio or kernel but problem persists. Only solution is flash stock prerooted Sense 3.0 kernel, remove battery (because without removing it the problem persist) and after successful boot with EDGE I can restore my full backup of Endymion. And it works well till next restart. After restart is the problem back, unknown network, and only G data symbol. 3G works fine, shows HSDPA and neighbor cells. Wiping cache and Dalvik cache didn't help.

Could you please help me, what I should try or how to fix this very strange problem? Thanks in advance.
[HTC Desire S] Mr. Death:
I've made few tests and it's definitely Endymion related problem. I've tried factory reset, didn't help. After working EDGE on prerooted stock 3.0 Sense I've tried clean installation of Endymion 2.2 from zip files. EDGE worked till next restart. Device was clean with /data, /cache and /system formated.

Maybe it could be problem with radio and ril files or kernel?
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
No issues here..
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
Thanks for the report! One thing I didn't quite understand:

Edge is not working, than you flash the stock kernel and it works. You're flashing only the kernel over endymion, or the complete stock rom?

My point is, if you flash only stock kernel and it always works, then its definitely endymion kernel related. If you take out the battery, do a clean install of endy, then it works until the next reboot, it coul be something else.
[HTC Desire S] Mr. Death:
Obviously it isn't general problem, but what more should I check or try? It can even be a problem with Vodafone CZ.

But the strangest thing is I need another rom and remove battery to get it back to work.

---------- Post added at 04:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:01 PM ----------

I make full format before flashing stock rom. I've tried only stock kernel, but it didn't start. Do you have any suggestion witch kernel should I try? I think I didn't try change kernel and after that remove battery and maybe it could be solution. Last week I've tried nonstock kernel without battery remove, but it can be close to yours, so I need to know, witch kernel should be different.
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
I don't use the stock kernel, I know there's a link to it somewhere around this forum, but can't help you there.

My questions were just to determine if it was actually a kernel problem, or if it could be a rom problem. If endymion works fine until the forst reboot, it's not a kernel problem almost for sure.

I assume you have turned off "fast boot" in settings->power and are doing full reboots.

One thing you could try is also replace /system/build.prop from endymion to the one that comes with the stock rom (and keep the everything else "as is", including the kernel). There are some keys there that could screw up data connections and power collapse.

Cheers
[HTC Desire S] Mr. Death:
Bingo! Thank you for your advice, problem is somewhere in build.prop. Changed it, restarted, usual problem with G, turned off, removed battery, turned on and network is in normal mode.

I've tried another restart and network is still OK.

Could you please cooperate and reveal the problem? I'm not familiar with build.prop options and I don't want to loose your options.

It should be somewhere in 2G network configurations because 3G always worked fine.

I've tried build.prop from RCMix3D rom and it's the very same problem. I don't need remove battery, it just needs two restart to apply all build.prop settings.
[HTC Desire S] tommyhot:
Default voltage and default CPU frequency, but my phone still turns off. Especially when I go out and it's cold :( I don't want to overvolt it, or underclock :\ I tried reflashing the ROM but still no luck.
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Maybe your phne cannot handle the slight overclock be default. The default cpu speed is 1024mhz. On this Rom its set to 1075mhz.

Try underclocking to 998mhz. Trust me, you won't feel the difference in speed, and it may be the answer to your random shut downs.

Are you only facing these problems on this ROM?
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
Can you send me the build.prop that's working for you?

Cheers
[HTC Desire S] Mr. Death:
It's from this rom: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=18094110

EDIT:

After little compare and searching it seems only those three settings could be the problem:

ro.ril.enable.dtm=1

ro.use_data_netmgrd=true

persist.data_netmgrd_nint=8

EDIT2:

Solved, it's caused by ro.ril.enable.dtm=1

There is an explanation: (Dual Transfer Mode)(ro.ril.enable.dtm : Only set this to 1 if your network allows simultaneous transfer of Circuit switched (CS) voice and Packet switched (PS) data over the same radio channel (ARFCN)

And Vodafone Czech Republic obviously can't use it.

Maybe you could add little info about it on first page, there could be much more networks with this problem. Anyway thank you for your help.
[HTC Desire S] sHAKaJaada:
A masterpiece!
[HTC Desire S] tommyhot:
Yes I'm only facing these problems on Endymion ROM. I've set the power mode from performance to normal and so far no problems. If it shuts down again, I'll try your advice. But it's strange that it shuts down only when it's cold outside :\
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
That "cold outside" thing could be an hardware fault on the battery... But it's impossible to debug unless you have a spare one.

[HTC Desire S] Quark^2:
I'm currently happily running LBC Mod 0.6.0 (mix of Sense 2.0 and 3.0 apps IIRC) with VIRTUOUS V9 kernel.

I just found this kernel and it seems that it has all the features of the virtuous kernel, but with more features.

If virtuous V9 runs fine, will this one run fine too? Or are there things that will not work out of the box?
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
It will work, please retro post on the dedicated Endymion kernel thread, this is the ROM thread
