Can any provide me with it?

Virtuous Unity then Virtuous Affinity used to be my daily rom long time ago, and it is my daily rom today. To bad we do not see any more updates for affinity :( sense 3.6 is really awesome compared to sense 4.0. I hope you guys did not forget about us.

Good Luck
[HTC Incredible S] umartariq:
With the new RUU releases in the last few days we have decided to focus are attention on them,

Affinity may or may not receive future updates

, we would like to update it to the final base as and when its get released by HTC. This will depend on how much time we have available with the other projects.

[HTC Incredible S] fallenwout:
If only they quickly solved the 2G/3G/WIFI switching. Then I wouldn't mind that there are no updates anymore.

"Don't fix what ain't broken"

Affinity is perfect except for the 3G-hanging.
[HTC Incredible S] husky69:
Ack. Same issue here
[HTC Incredible S] interaser:
No mater what I flash I all the time return to my favorite Virtuous Affinity

I made something for me, decided to share with you:

I used my themed dialer http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=22811138&postcount=1

and themed the keyboard (credits go to XxXPachaXxX or Rushness - I do not know who themed the HTC_Ime; thank you guys)

to match sense 4 look

I also made an custom wallpaper with the Sense 4 Rosie snap on it

> and now if I apply the Gabbana_sense_4_ver3.apk

> and apply from virtuous tweaks

transparent rosie

I have the look of Sense 4 on my favorite best working rom Virtuous Affinity

p.s. I also attached the rosie snap so that you can place it on any wallpaper you want. good luck guys

thank you virtuous for your awesome rom < can not let it go

Virtuous Affinity Sense 3.5 Dialer & IME

I like sense 4 but I like sense 3.5 more :)

so I made a sense black Dialer and Keyboard (IME) to match the sense 3.5 style :

p.s. I also attached transparent HTCwidgetClock made by evgenzaval which I found on 4pda < all credits go to him :)

Add it, would be nice

Could you make the same for the Energized RcMix 3.5 Sense rom too? i mean with this eye candy dark blue?
[HTC Incredible S] Surajkumar:

[HTC Incredible S] butamankun:
thank you for your nice rom.

however I have trouble with 3g data connection.

I can't connect to 3G (Softbank, Japan). service shown in lockscreen is "SoftBank"

and I can use phone call and sms. so it is not problem of no service.

I confirmed APN settings are correct. it's the same as APN i used in Unity 2.39 rom

without problem.

but it seems that nobody reported this problem...

is there something like service blacklist in new htc rom?
[HTC Incredible S] piobeer:
I do have an issue with the fix V2 provided earlier in this thread: it kills my wifi for some reason. I tried it twice, first with doing a super wipe, then flashing ROM and fix in one go. Result was no wifi at all.

Then I did a super wipe again, and this time only flashed the ROM. All good with wifi working. Then went into recovery and flashed the rosie fix_v2 again and after reboot no more wifi....tried to reflash Untity V10 kernel but no result.

Anybody any idea?

Edit: just tried with flashing RCMix v7.1 kernel and wifi returned....will try to flash Unity V10 again.

Edit 2: had a freeze and had to pull battery. Did experience this with both Unity V10 and RCMix V7.1. No OC/UV beater installed / used
[HTC Incredible S] IncredibleSlover:
Apparently the new update is smoother
[HTC Incredible S] suchevent:
lol. funny but kinda true. also, many of the pages are people asking when the next rom/update is coming :)

still, it's a good rom and nik has been awesome in terms of tech support. I wish him the best and hope he has fixed all the issues with the new release.
[HTC Incredible S] Legsmaniac:
That's not what I've just read. LOL

Have fun trying it then. I'm sticking with Affinity. ;)

---------- Post added at 09:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:08 PM ----------

As do I. Don't get me wrong, I'm not knocking Nik or his ROM. He's a buddy of mine. He's done great work but his ROM has gone from what was potentially a great, smooth and stable ROM to something with bells and whistles on, flashy and fancy, too many graphics etc. I prefer stability and usability with good battery life over too much eye-candy.

Still, it's good to have a choice. ;)
[HTC Incredible S] suchevent:
i'm in complete agreement. that is the exact reason why I use virtuous.

it's a good time for us incs owners, with all these roms becoming available.
[HTC Incredible S] Psyloid:
I just ditched nik's in favor of Android Revolution, will be following this one closely now... Too early to flash it already I think + After trying nik's 1.5 and 2.0 the last days I am sure now that I don't like most of Sense. So a De-Sensed (I can do that myself on any rom) Stable - Good battery life Rom is what I am aiming for. So far ARHD has been great, except for a few minor niggles, but i'm always looking for something better :) (I want 2.3.5). So I guess this is gonna be the one :)
[HTC Incredible S] suchevent:
yeah, it's still early for this rom but it's almost a certainty that the team will ultimately provide a great rom. stay tuned.
[HTC Incredible S] Legsmaniac:
Seriously guys, I was thinking the same when this ROM was (finally) released. I was thinking "Let others try it first and see what the bugs are." I also tried ARHD (again! And I still didn't like it, too much like stock) and was thinking of going back to VU1.26 (a great and stable GB2.3.3 Sense 3 ROM) but - two things. 1 - curiosity got the better of me and 2 - knowing the Virtuous teams great track record so far, I gave in and decided to try it. I thought "What the hell? I can always go back to what I was using or carry on with my plan to flash VU1.26

At first, I wasn't sure about Affinity but decided to give it a whole day's trial to be fair plus I also showed my son who loved it immediately. And then the Virtuous team released the fix packs for kinetic scrolling, the wallpaper fix and the Bliss (which I don't use, I hate Bliss) fix, I was made up.

For me, this ROM is smooth, fast, great battery and works right out of the box. Wait until the next release if you want to, by all means, but I'm pretty confident you won't be disappointed if you tried it now. What have you got to lose except a half an hour of your time backing up your current ROM and restoring it again if you do decide you don't like it? :)
[HTC Incredible S] suchevent:
thx for that, legs. I have already tried it. loved it, but am just waiting for extended quick settings and crt animation. not critical items, I know, but would like to have them, nonetheless. in the meantime, i'm perfectly happy with v2.39, to which I have made a few personal visual m10 customizations. and afaik, there's no way to modify sense 3.5 m10 files.
[HTC Incredible S] ajeya:
for a minute i forgot i was browsing through xda forums lol

no comparisons should be done at all...personal opinions should be personal only. virtuous roms are always simple and elegant and nikks roms are a combination of beauty and usefulness. both of them are great roms. use the one u prefer and having so many roms is an advantage in itself.

P.S: 235 pages also speak the developer's commitment in providing support for his rom ;)
[HTC Incredible S] ambuj:
I totally agree.

Though I have equal respect for Trinity and Virtuous Rom, It's not fair to comment on one developer or his work in other thread.

Be considerate.
[HTC Incredible S] Psyloid:
I am gonna give it a go today :)
[HTC Incredible S] suchevent:
i completely disagree.

this is a forum. it's a place where u share knowledge and opinions. you can't tell others that they are being unfair just because they are posting criticisms/opinions about one rom in another thread.

one should, of course, be considerate and respectful of others' work but i have not seen any posts that are inconsiderate or of malicious nature.

if people are posting their honest opinions in a respectful manner, it's not up to you or me to decide where those opinions belong.
[HTC Incredible S] suchevent:
I don't mean to sound harsh but what exactly are you implying? are you saying that people should keep opinions to themselves?
[HTC Incredible S] baste07:
didn't understand that comment as well.. we are in a forum
[HTC Incredible S] suchevent:
sorry for derailing the thread. i'll try to stay on topic :)
[HTC Incredible S] nikhil007mmus:
Ok guys first thing is the vu team has been amazing since they started the rom development with sense 3.0 and i am truly a fan no matter what .. before i even knew anything abt rom making i have used the vu series of roms ..so seriously i know whatever they make will be really great .. One thing is in Rom development for a phone all the members are having options to choose from some like vu , some like my rom or some like rcmix its the members personal decision and they can switch and decide which is the best im in talks with Legsmaniac for a longtime and he prefers the vu i have no problems with it , its a personal choice which rom to use ..

We developers try to make things better , im still in the learning phase these guys of the vu and rcmix team are my mentors whenever i need any help i do pm capychimp , cjward or chrish and they reply without any problems so at the developers end its all great , so i guess members shouldn't have any fight over this ..

One thing i want to address Legsmaniac bro check my thread read the posts cz even if they are of battery drain etc etc as you mentioned i have tried my best to clear it no matter what .. in forums people will surely post what problems they have and sometimes i provide support or some other members do sometimes you also do that .. so the 235 posts are not just crap there is some info in them which is useful .. no harsh feelings ..

One more last thing if you want to comment anything on any rom please try the rom and then review about it cz i read , i havent tried that rom just read the comments in the thread and didnt like it ..so i feel personally , if you dont like something of a rom post in the respective thread .

Anyways maintain peace and choose what is best for you .

Cheers,

Nik

Sorry for writing a long speech here but just wanted to clear it all here cz somethings were been spoken about and i have spent hours in testing and making of my rom so some comments are a bit difficult to digest and need an explanation to be given to
[HTC Incredible S] letmedanz:
Well... It is very good to see the camaraderie of the developers.

That is definitely good for the scene.

I also believe that the any comparison between the roms is actually a comparison of the roms only & not the caliber of the developer.

This definitely helps in arriving at a better finished product.

Anyways back on topic, again a compliment to the VU team.

The ROM is performing brilliantly.

the phone has been under a lot of stress with the wife out of the country & only viable mode of comm being 3G & skype :D

Amazing battery backup.. Much better even than Unity which i believed to be the best.

Apart from battery as well, every thing is smooth as silk, fast & completely stable.

Just as an update, mods from UOT Kitchen work as well!

So i aint running around for any new ROM for a while...

Just wondering though if there could be some new tweaks added in future releases to add some 'eye-candy' ? :)

Thanks guys
[HTC Incredible S] Psyloid:
Tried the rom today, found it excellent :) But revertede back to Nik's rom.

Decided i liked its looks better

that was my 18th flash in two days, LOL

Now i'm sticking with this for a while !!
[HTC Incredible S] Legsmaniac:
@nikhil007mmus - Easy bro! Don't bust a blood vessel! ;)

I agree with letmedanz, it's a comparrision of ROMs, not developers. I also agree with syc7090, this is a public forum where freedom of speech should be allowed and comparrision is only for the benefit of others, information and knowledge. As syc7090 has also pointed out, no one has been disrespectful of your own or any other developers work.

Also, to clarify, I have tried your ROM up to v1.5 (not tried v2) and my comments were pertaining to your ROMs up to and including v1.5 since they were posted before you released v2

My comment on "235 posts were crap" as you put it (I didn't actually say that) were actually "tongue in cheek" and meant as a joke. Anyone reading your thread would realise I was joking. ;)

So to set the record straight, my comment was actually "And 234 of them are all about freezes, bootloops and high battery drain." which is almost true. I did also add an "LOL" on the end. And you should know by now that I pay no attention to posts about battery drain unless they are personal comparisions. Like, for example, my own comments on how Affinity is giving me fantastic battery life on my own phone compared to my exact same usage with VU2.39

I was going to mention that too. Whenever I've used the Kitchen in pre VU2.39 ROMs, it would take my backlights out. Not so with VA1.46 :)

I understand that some new tweaks are "coming soon" from the Virtuous Team, including the CRT Effect and Quick Settings menu. As for some "eye-candy", have you considered adding some animated window effects in the Kitchen?
[HTC Incredible S] ajeya:
peace brother ! I was trying to say that personal opinions which make fun of others should be avoided (first rule of any forum). From the posts that i read i was able to conclude this. so i may be wrong also ( after all i m human). but whatever i didnt like i commented on that and even i have the right to express myself.

Enough already...we should try these new AWESOME roms now ! :)

when is this new update coming regarding the change in quick settings and crt effect?

PEACE ;)
[HTC Incredible S] nikhil007mmus:
Flying windows animations added try the Rom and let me know what u feel
[HTC Incredible S] Legsmaniac:
They're not for me. I prefer window animations to be an option. (In my case, not at all.) I was merely suggesting them to letmedanz for Affinity in the Kitchen. :)
[HTC Incredible S] IncredibleSlover:
I love transitions and flying windows :)
[HTC Incredible S] Legsmaniac:
Each To Their Own. :p LOL

Have you tried the Kitchen for Affinity yet then to add the ones you like?

By the way, there's a new ROM voting thread set up for anyone interested.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1347245

Not that I pay a lot of attention to Polls like this because people change ROMs more often than they change their underwear. LOL

So after they have voted, they're unable to change their vote.
[HTC Incredible S] ptscon:
Think I may have found a bug.

My incoming SMS are 5 hours behind, "Use local time stamp for messages" is checked under Tweaks.
[HTC Incredible S] suchevent:
i'm not certain but isn't sms delay a radio issue?

i've heard of users updating radio to another version fixed the delayed SMS
[HTC Incredible S] NardVa:
Anybody make a circle battey mode mod for this ROM?
[HTC Incredible S] ptscon:
Not sure, 3.0 Virtuous ROM worked fine. I switched to manual time zone network based ..will see if that fixes it.
[HTC Incredible S] mandeep294:
sms delay issue is radio based..nothing to do with d rom
[HTC Incredible S] Legsmaniac:
Not a Circle one but I did make my own in the UOT Kitchen.

And backlights still work. :)
[HTC Incredible S] chrisch1974:
Fine that people are happy that OUT works now. Was really hard work to combine the full stuff in one framework for all devices (not as in Unity where some files where different for devices). But I can really see that this work was successfull :D
[HTC Incredible S] mandeep294:
hey devs, plz post a recommended radio and matching ril for incs as well as u did for ace.
[HTC Incredible S] ajeya:
is it true that the signal reception is bad in sense 3.5 roms?

i personally felt that ...got full signals in cm7 but almost similar reception in all sense 3.5 roms (not full)
[HTC Incredible S] Legsmaniac:
Not in my own personal experience.
[HTC Incredible S] ajeya:
sad. i have a bad reception at my place too.but i was puzzled to see the full bars in cm7 with the same radio. anyways...too sensified :D can't leave sense. ;)
[HTC Incredible S] mandeep294:
trust me i always get full signal.. :D
[HTC Incredible S] ajeya:
well this could be the reason too ;)

I have never touched my radio, it's still using what came with the phone from the provider. There was no sms time stamp issue using previous Virtuous ROM.

---------- Post added at 01:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:39 AM ----------

Either way, shouldn't messages be stamped with phone time when arriving when "Use local time stamp for messages" is checked?

Perhaps that option is not being applied on this new ROM.
[HTC Incredible S] ptscon:
3805.04.03.27_M is my current radio.

u have to overwrite as u did..reboot and u will get d signal
[HTC Incredible S] jaysonline:
Can someone kindly tell me what settings >>virtuous tweaks>>softkey backlight does?

Also when using UOT do I need to upload com.htc-resources.apk??
[HTC Incredible S] cjward23:
The default backlight setting of the Runnymede rom are very low, so you have the option to make them brighter.

If UOT asks for com.htc.resources.apk I wiukd upload it, I have asked the dev to add the affinity files to list of kitchen files.

There does seem to be an issue with the kitchen changing signal icons.
[HTC Incredible S] Legsmaniac:
If you are ONLY creating a new Battery Mod, you only need to upload framework-res.apk and nothing else.

For other effects then yes, you need to upload the other files too.

---------- Post added at 11:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:32 AM ----------

Does the Droid need a reboot (or a Rosie restart) to make the backlight changes take effect?

Also, if I hide any of my 7 desktops and later reboot, all 7 are back again. Is this meant to be normal or is this a bug? Would be nice if the settings stick after a reboot but it's no biggie. :)
[HTC Incredible S] cjward23:
Probably need a reboot.

Just checked the homescreen bug, i can't reproduce on saga. Can anyone else confirm?
[HTC Incredible S] Legsmaniac:
I don't know why I didn't just try it. LOL

OK, performed a reboot. It did indeed make a difference. Took my backlights out. (Because I created a Battery Mod in the UOT Kitchen.) So it's best to stay on "Device" at least until itandy comes along and creates a new battery mod for us. :)

(And had to remove my two blank panels yet again!)
[HTC Incredible S] vladabiber:
Same here, backlights are off on "ROM", but I don't have any battery mod. And I have 4 desktops after reboot, so there is no bug. I'm using Affinity 1.46.0 (earlier version, before fix)
[HTC Incredible S] Legsmaniac:
Is that on Incredible S?

I will be flashing Affinity on my son's Incredible S this afternoon so I will test the desktops issue on a clean ROM before flashing patches. I'll find out which patch it is causing the problem. (Unless of course it's on the Incredible S from clean install.)
[HTC Incredible S] vladabiber:
Yes, it is IncS.
[HTC Incredible S] Legsmaniac:
OK, Thank you.

@CJ and the team, I will report how my son's mobile fares later this afternoon.

---------- Post added at 01:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:24 PM ----------

Haven't done my son's phone yet since I'm waiting for him.

In the meantime, I tried flashing the basic ROM back to my phone, thereby overwriting the FixPack2, the Battery Mod and the CRT Mod.

The problem of desktop panels still exists. :confused:

Or am I doing something wrong?

Here's what I do.....

Press Home key to see all 7 desktops.

Long press on empty panels and drag to "Remove panel".

Then press Home or Back key.

Now if I do a Normal reboot, the empty desktop panels are back again. There's no "Save" feature, is there? Or am I missing it?

Will still be testing this on my son's phone which will be a clean install from scratch.
[HTC Incredible S] ankanb:
Am about to flash this ROM with the above configuration you mentioned - are there any issues/side effects with the UOT Kitched mod or CRT mod I should be aware of?

Thanks!
[HTC Incredible S] Legsmaniac:
OK, I've now flashed my son's Incredible S with Virtuous Affinity and I can confirm that...

virtuous_affinity-v1.46.0.zip (The ROM)

virtuous_affinity-v1.46.0-Rosie_fix2.zip (The fixes for the call button for bliss navbar, adds a tweak for disable scroll by page in app drawer (kinetic scrolling) and fixes the incorrect wallpaper crop)

VA146_CRT_animation.zip (Adds back the CRT Effects for both screen on and off, thanks to TobaccoDoff)

... breaks nothing. All removed desktop panels stay removed upon rebooting. I even flashed a Custom Battery Mod I created in the UOT Kitchen and still all is well.

So what did I do wrong?

I realised my mistake. I restored my Desktop (Data Only) from Titanium Backup. (Green item) which is what messed my desktop up. Silly boy! So I'm gonna have to do my phone again now.

Have to be SO careful with Titanium. Can cause more problems than it's worth, sometimes. Sorry for the scare. LOL
