[HTC Desire S] Gandalf Greyhelm:
Beats Audio - Hyperion vs. Endymion

Firstly, and again, many thanks to lowveld for his hard work. Looks like I picked the right time to s-off and root my Desire S! :)

Having tried both the latest Hyperion and now this - I must say I do actually prefer Sense 3.5 - each to his own guys!

However, since I use my phone primarily as an mp3 player, I'm very conscious of the quality coming into my ears.

1) IMO - the implementation of Beats on Endymion sounds far inferior to Hyperion - and why that should be I have no idea - but my ears tell me that there's a very slight distortion on some sounds - whist the stereo width and placement of instruments seems somehow lacking compared to Endymion.

2) Unlike Hyperion, virtually any activity on the phone (most especially screen lock / unlock) results in a stuttering of the playing track - note that this also occurs with HTC enhancement. I can only guess that this (perhaps) has something to do with the audio buffer - which may be set at a different value on this rom (?)

I'm not moaning here - just wanted to point out that this may be an issue for some - and is the reason why I'm returning to Hyperion - but I am going to miss the FC widget and the smaller weather clock.

So...leaving one lowveld rom for another - the man's got me hooked either way :)
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
Thanks for a great "sum it up" man, I appreciate it.

I'm still struggling with the audio on this rom. Have you tried the latest patche?
[HTC Desire S] payne@post.sk:
Hi I want to use just app, but immwdiately when i log in sense will create account and want to access my facebook. That is exclamation mark icon in status bar, when i dont allow it wil ask me for permission again. So i dont know how to block htc sense from my facebook. I try restart and clear cache, also did factory restore :(
[HTC Desire S] det66:
Thin kit's just a matter of removing the account from Sense and then using the facebook app

---------- Post added at 12:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:33 PM ----------

Why such a panic over Sense ? if you use G+ or twitter it will do the same?

Maybe it will be a case of not using a Sense based rom,as I'm not sure how you could do what you want to do
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
Just flash over it. There will be some honeyhd stuff left, but no big deal.

If you want to completely remove it, flash endy 2.0 and the 2.1 updater without wiping anything, then apply the theme. You won't lose anything.

Cheers
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
I may be wrong, but if you remove the Facebook account from "accounts and sync", and just login through the Facebook standalone app it would do what you want. Just like det said. :)

Or you could allow facebook for HTC access, but set it to never sync automatically.

Cheers
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
If the kitchen is not working for you, open framework-res.apk, SystemUI.apk and com.htc.resources.apk, go through the res folders on all of them, locate the offending icons, and replace them.

A pain in the ass? Yes. Welcome to theming. :)

Cheers
[HTC Desire S] payne@post.sk:
Its not don't it for Google+, Twitter can't check, not using it. I don't understand why sense is forcing me allow it, when i not allow it then should not ask me again and again in circle, for me its a bug.

I like HTC sense rom, so i would like to use it.

Thanks for help guys, hope we find solution.
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
Just took a peek inside your zip, specifically, into the SystemUI.apk and from what i saw, the signal icons look pretty stock-ish to me... Are you sure you chose the correct icon pack?

I mean, the aeroplane mode icons, etc, for example are all kickass (custom looking), but all your signal icons are black and white with a pretty stock-ish look. They are thus in the zip and hence thus on your screen... Maybe you selected the wrong ones before cooking?

Just a thought... i'm only guessing, and could very well be wrong. You're the cook, so you know best what you put in... Anyway, that's all i have for you right now...
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
Det, enigmaamit and all the others:

I think I created some monsters here. :D

Poor Oly will be the last soul on the planet left on stock. And complaining about it. :p
[HTC Desire S] payne@post.sk:
Not in my case, i deleted account from "account and sync" and never created it there, then open stand alone app after login sense want to sync and account is created in "account and sync". I checked market and facebook is installed from there.
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
I got it!!!

Guys, lowveld, det...i figured out what this dude is so freaked out about.!!

Dude, payne@post.sk, what you are consistently denying permission to is the Authorization dialog...i.e facebook asking you whether to allow sense to access your account or not.

If you do not allow it, you will NEVER be able to use sense integration with facebook!!!. Period.

It's the "Authorize HTC Sense" dialog. It is perfectly normal. All of us here have allowed it, and you will have to allow it everytime you install a new ROM. Don't worry, Zuckerberg is not going to bite you in the ass if you allow it (AFAIK...:p).

ANYONE using an HTC phone with Sense, trying to access facebook has to authorize sense to access it.

Hope you've seen the light. I got a headache trying to figure out what convoluted, mutated, monster of an issue you were having....:D:D:D

P.S. The headache's better now!! :D:D:D

I think you have mate

---------- Post added at 01:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:05 PM ----------

You're right it doesn't with G+ but it does on Twitter.TBH i can't see the prob using Facebook for Sense.i never use the standalone app.If it's for privacy/security Facebook on it's own is as leaky as any 3rd party app maybe even more so
[HTC Desire S] ghuk:
thanks guys! will flash the Gold rush theme now! :)
[HTC Desire S] JagSem:
Hi, in the process of cooking UOT for circle battery, flying windows etc but in the V2.1 update there is no com.htc.resources.apk

Will I be able to flash the UOT and then V2.1 update and retain the circle battery?
[HTC Desire S] payne@post.sk:
Hi that was exactly what i was trying to do. Thanks a lot dude.

I was hoping thhere is anyway how to use facebook without authorizing sense to access my fb account.
[HTC Desire S] Jahral:
Take the com.htc.resources.apk from V2.0 as it was not changed in V2.1, to help make your UOT.

Then just flash your UOT over V2.1 and not lose anything:) Should work just fine.
[HTC Desire S] shrome99:
Yes, you can. Just check the ZIP file before you flash, and you won't go in bootloop.
[HTC Desire S] ivanmark52:
thanks instaled everything works ok,only battery drain is much faster than on stock 2.3.3

@lowveld

I got reboot with two apps. I uploaded the two apps for you to double check the issue. http://hotfile.com/dl/134361776/5a8eb43/apps_cause_reboot.zip.html

I'm using Endymion V2.1
[HTC Desire S] shrome99:
Luckily, there's a fix for that -

1)https://market.android.com/details?id=com.nema.batterycalibration&feature=search_result Get this app, it's free.

2) Charge your battery till 100%. Not 99, 100.

Click battery calibrate, and unplug charger. DONE !!

Is it really working? I use different method which requires several reboots and clearing battery stats. But this app seems to be a lot faster and easier.
[HTC Desire S] JagSem:
Cheers.

I used the files from the V2.0 and flashed the UOT. Then I flashed the V2.1 but the circle disappeared. So I flashed the UOT again over the update and it worked. So far no problems.

If anyone wants, here it is http://db.tt/QhfLUIkw

First time I've ever cooked one. Just the battery
[HTC Desire S] ivanmark52:
Hm...i got strange problem after doing this.My battery meter stay on 100% all the time i restarted and iti is same.When i conected to charger it fal to 99% but now it stays like that.
[HTC Desire S] tommyhot:
Maybe wiping battery stats in recovery can help you?
[HTC Desire S] ivanmark52:
Nope.Can i do factory reset on this custom rom?

[HTC Desire S] codryn:
Hi. Finally I`m trying this ROM and until now is awesome but I have some questions:

1. At phone identity > Model NUmber I have HTC Sensation XL wih Beats Audio x315e. How can I change this to Desire S? Is not in build.prop

2. Can I use safely RCMix3D_Runny_Theme_Animation_1.9 without losing something important ?
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
1) /system/customize/CID/default.xml

2) Yes and no. If you flash the all theme the beats audio will be "different". More options on player, but not all work as supposed. I would advise taking out HTCListen.apk, HTCSoundenhancer.apk, ... etc. Basically all that sounds music related. There's lots of info about this a few pages back.

Cheers, and welcome. :)
[HTC Desire S] codryn:
in /system/customize/CID/default.xml there are 2 strings with sensation name but after edit>save>restart model number is still Sensation and not desire S.

edit: it is also in MNS\default.xml
[HTC Desire S] Jahral:
A couple of pages back I posted a modified version of RCMix3D_Runny_Theme_Animation_1.9 with faulty beats taken out. Screenshots are there to take a look at 2. Also if you want to you can also take out the camera apk so that panoramic mode will work.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1310845&page=48

Give it a go and tell me if you like it.
[HTC Desire S] Jahral:
Just so I'm sure, you did use systemui.apk & framework-res.apk from V2.1 & just the com.htc. resources.apk from V2.0.

Because that would give you the best result. Then just flash it over V2.1.

Hope this helps.
[HTC Desire S] JagSem:
They are all from V2.0 because I backed it up and flashed the UOT before I updated to V2.1 and made sure it worked before commenting on here. I thought to myself if it doesn't work I won't bother with the V2.1 update, restore back until I had the circle mod cooked, then do both of them together.

As I say, I've been using this so far and it's been fine. Been using it pretty heavily on the net and setting up tweeks etc that are needed when flashing a new ROM.

Very impressed with this ROM btw.

Edit, I've just looked at some of the tweeks and looks like superuser is still v2.3.6.3

I'll take down the file and do the way you suggested. Cheers.
[HTC Desire S] det66:
Super User is still an old version as the newer versions have FC issues, its mentioned in the 1st post on this thread
[HTC Desire S] Sick1:
After about 24hours of lookin, cookin and mixin up. Finally got signal bar icons to work like i wanted to. Realized that UOT kitchen gives me the right icons but wrong place/filename. So unpacked, renamed, drinked, smoked, packed and flashed and its ok now :)

----

EDIT: Whiuh.. Spend whole day lookin and cooking with these icons and found them thanks to "Liamstears_RCMix3D_Runny_Theme_Animation_1.9_Jahral_Edit" theme. And also used m10 editor to edit the bliss dock like the one in "OPB-runny-blue+theme-v3.10Rv"

So special thanks to Liamstears, Jahral and Onepagebook!

Also of course a very special thanks to Lowveld for this kick-ass ROM!!!!

Maybe now i can get some sleep finally :D

Damm its too big for attachement of course... :(

PEACE!

Flashed this ROM and its working great and doing great.

One thing I've noticed now though is that the phone seems to be getting hot when I charge it which it never used to before.

Any ideas?!?

[HTC Desire S] sokaku:
@lowveld

Could you please help investigate reboot issue? Any further information you need?
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
Well, first you have to make sure that this is rom related, or if it happens with other roms. Specifically, if it happens with sense 3.5 roms.

Second, I'm sorry, but I give (good, I think) support to the rom, but 3rd party apps is definitely asking too much. Shouldn't you contact the programmers of the apps themselves?

Capture a logcat of what happens when you open the applications and sent it to them. You may also sent id to me, but I can't guarantee you that I'll investigate further, I do have limited time.

Cheers

I left the arrows on landscape mode, as there is lots of space. Took them out of all portrait modes.

Note that this is not an older version of the keyboard, or taken out from a sense 3 rom. It's the original Runnymede keyboard, without the arrows.

Cheers

Setting up an account in the stock Sense 3.0 worked well...
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
HTC sense site still does not support sense 3.5 fully and there have been issues with 3.5 ROMs right from the beginning. Give it some time. Or you could try proxuser runny ROMs and see if it works for you...

@lowveld

The same symptom with Runnymede S v3.0 ROM, but no problem with Hyperion V2.1. So, it might be caused by Sense 3.5.

Sorry, but what issue? It's working for me, you just have to tick it a couple of times. I remember someone complaining that it dropped when you pull down the notification bar, but I'm yet to confirm this.

[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
Lol!!

Reminded me of Barney in "How i met your Mother"...:D:D:D
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
:D

You're a man of good tastes then. "How I met you mother", Dream Theater playing on a screenshot somewhere back on this thread...

Respect.
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
Wow!! Compliments from the master himself. I'm flattered. I Love Dream Theatre. And kings of leon... listen to Arizona by them if you haven't yet. :p

BTW, you done with the magic? Why so silent??? (I do know you have a life...:D) But it saddens me to see so little activity here recently. The Hyperion thread has almost dried up... We're seeing a prostatic trickle of posts here... :rolleyes:

Reminds me of a couple of weeks ago... Sigh.... {nostalgia.}:(

But i guess all that was just practice for what is to come. I think the monster you were born to slaughter has not made an appearance yet. The deceptive Ice Cream Sandwich will be a worthy opponent for you man.

From what i've been reading, it's been a ***** to tame and is still not potty-trained on devices it has been ported to (beta-ish). :D

Seeing that the DS is on the periphery of requirements for ICS, and that ICS is designed primarily for HD screens, it's going to be a pain to get it up and running here. But if i've learnt anything from the HD2, it is that a device can really stretch it out far if the community behind it is strong.

So if there's anything i'm waiting for, its your port of the ICS to the DS... maybe from an HTC device releasing soon... :)

Cheers.

P.S. If you have free time and are bored, you could try porting the Bliss ROM to the DS. It's pretty nice IMO, the colour scheme, the reduced emphasis on transparency...
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
Well, not to brag, but I think both Endymion and Hyperion are so good as to not need any updates, at least for the moment. That's why I went for a ride in "theming land", there was nothing to do anywhere else.

I've been toying with the idea of doing something on top of cyanogen, but there's a big obstacle: I really love sense and probably would not use it daily. I know AOSP and cyanogen are great, but for me the htc widgets, plus the htc dialer are a deal breaker (and I've tried cyanogen and pretty much all "htc replacement widgets" out there). Given the amount of work I would have to do, it's kind of offputing .

As for ICS, I stand by my previous words. Until I get a working dump from an actual device, I probably won't touch it. Again the same reasons, an SDK image would never work daily for me, and I'm kind of proud of putting out stable and useful roms out. I won't put out anything that I myself wouldn't use. But I do appreciate the work people are putting into it already! A few years ago, with more time and more "why not?" spirit, I would have jumped in the wagon also. Now, I'm a bit more demanding. :)

Cheers
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
What about a Bliss port then? The specs on both phones are similar, this may well be the best match to out device! What say??

You'd have your own three-pronged Devil's pitchfork then. Maybe we could call it "Centurion" or "Tourbillon" !! :D:D

I dont like wifi thetering because its a battery killer.

So my result is:

Endymion Rom with Endymion Kernel - no

Endymion Rom with Unity Kernel V10 - no

Endymion Rom with HTC Stock Kernel - yes

I gotta say - I'm glad you're not constantly tinkering with this ROM for the sake of it.

I was using Runny but each version had so many changes from the last that there was constantly bugs.

I'd wait a week before doing the upgrade, do it and find some bugs and a day or two later a new release was out that was such a big change it had bugs again so I'd have to re-do the whole thing again.

I'm REALLY happy to just have a nice simple, stable port that just runs.

Only thing I'm missing from Runny really is the message app from it - it had a 'safebox' type thing for your sms's you wanted to keep private?

Any chance of that on this?
[HTC Desire S] codryn:
I don`t get a thing: why in SystemUI.apk there are those files stat_sys_signal_3_fully.png, stat_sys_signal_4_fully.png etc. (green bars) but in reality the signal bar is grey ?
