Well it doesn't happen to me who is running virtuous g-lite 1.02 or the last version that rmk built. I mean when I type with hardware keyboard it types without the first letter being highlighted. The way you can fix the problem is that every time you type the first letter tap the screen to unhighlight the first letter so it doesn't get replaced by the next letter you type.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] the4biddendonut:
I'm getting used to typing my first letter twice, or hitting the search button first. I know there are ways around it, it's just an annoyance.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] WTF?:
here is another keyboard issue, but I don't think it is a bug at all, just a major annoyance!

not sure if you all have a solution to this, but when I am texting someone, I of course am using the ALT key a lot for numbers, symbols, etc. and sometimes I have the ALT key in the wrong mode and I go to use the backspace (delete) key to delete 1 character and because the ALT key is in the wrong mode, it deletes the WHOLE FRIGGIN line!!

I know it is supposed to do this by design, but I need to disable that, I never need to delete an entire line, but this is constantly erasing half of my text message in mid-keystroke!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] arsonist63086:
Nope nothing you can do about it...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] monomer888:
I had the same issue with the Fn key when I had my Desire Z (Fn-Backspace deleted the line in the DZ). It was very annoying! I remember that I accidentally made it go away by installing Swiftkey X. The version at the time had a bug that to seemed to 'break' that function. Unfortunately it also broke the cut/copy/paste HW-keyboard combos too, so it wasn't worth it. :(
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] WTF?:
I am SO TIRED of the market's

"your device isn't compatible with this item"

message, just due to the market not liking non-standard LCD resolutions, when 98% of apps work just fine.

I sure hope someone will solve this issue so that the ridiculous google market quits playing big brother - is there not a relatively simple way to spoof the resolution to always appear to be 240 when accessing the market?

This insanity even keeps my existing apps from being able to update themselves!

it's bad enough the horrible privacy violations and logging that google does to us daily, but this is adding insult to injury!

"Do no Evil" has become a bad joke!

Haven't posted here in a while, but just wanted to give a quick note about updates to this ROM. I abide by the "if it ain't broke don't fix it" rule. So until a new base is available, don't expect much. I'm open to addon ideas and things of that nature, so please feel free to make suggestions. tun4 out.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] captainreynolds:
tun4,

good to hear from you. If you're wondering about possible addons, I know for a fact quite a few people (myself included) would love to see a crt on/off animation with this rom!

You probably won't see this, but worth a try! Loving your rom either way mate, hope life's good

Also - full GPU rendering maybe? :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] WTF?:
slight mod to ROM to spoof silly market requirement of 240 LCD density in order to download or auto-update apps

do your parents know you are up this late on a school night?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] scottmahoney:
The search button isn't working for my phone it seems I have google search installed but it won't even work
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ghostnik:
Only suggestion for such a perfect rom is to fix, add or improve the audio routing capabilities of desire Z/g2. Since I believe its a problem with all desire Z/g2, that when wired headphones or headsets are plugged in and a call comes in, the audio isn't routed to the wired headphones or wired headsets, it will be routed to the phones back speaker. Which for the love of me I can't understand. It should route to the wired headphones or wired headsets but it never does.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] WTF?:
I was having a similar problem to yours and it was driving me crazy and I finally found an app that fixed it - not saying it will fix it on yours, but this app was a lifesaver to me in a similar situation on my G2 running this G-lite ROM (and maybe all ROMs)

here is the market link, it's called Disable AutoPlay

make sure you read all of the comments to see all of the various crazy problems people have solved using this app!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ghostnik:
I just want to say thank you for giving me the solution to my problem. Audio is now routed to my wired headset when plugged in and there is a incoming call. I have the ability to use my headset mic also and the person on other end here's me and I can here them. Thanks again.

But when I use a regular headphone, without mic audio is still routed to back speaker when a call comes in. Anyhow that won't matter just means I have to use my headset instead of my regular headphones when listening to music.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Palingenesis:
I am browsing around for the most lightweight, fast, battery efficient rom for the G2. I'm currently using the G2slim rom which is pretty nice. But I also found and read about this rom. Unfortunately, I kept getting bootlooped. Rom related? Or perhaps because I have the newer hboot for sense 3.5? I don't know.

First install, stuck on htc logo screen

Second install, stuck on google gears boot animation getting bootloop

Third install, back on htc logo screen.

I gave up and went back to G2slim.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] arsonist63086:
The hboot makes no diff.. is slim runs g-light will run to.. m guess u didn't to a full wipe of the partitions .. its best to format system,cache and data also whipe delvik cache threw you recovery .. or just flash super wipe for G2 .. so make sure u wipe before flashing rom ..
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Palingenesis:
I generally wipe data data, then cache, then do superwipe+ext4, then wipe dalvik, then flash rom.

This process has worked on every rom aside from this one.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Palingenesis:
Got it working, now is there a way to get battery percent working? There are 83 pages and I searched the first 13. Couldn't find any.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cswroe:

OMG - someone fixed the market compatibility issue with non-standard LCD resolutions!! :D

well HALLELUJAH!!

below is the market app for the fix - this developer is apparently a GENIUS, being the first person on EARTH to SOLVE this frustrating issue! - best $2.99 I ever spent! :eek:

LCD Density Modder Pro
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Palingenesis:
Tun4, come back to us! Give us a few upgrades! Haha. Really love this rom. Only needs a few minor adjustments!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] captainreynolds:
We're looking for an in-system fix for the headphone audio routing when receiving a call, maybe a fix for non-standard densities in the market.

Also, it'd be great if you could fix echoes for people on the other side of calls with me (I've asked, and they go away once I plug in headphones) along with reducing background noise from my side, I get complaints about that often even when there is very little...

Ooh - and CRT on/off animations :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] WTF?:
just keep in mind that both of these issues have been solved by apps, although having them built into the ROM would be cool

the headphone audio routing fix is here: Disable Autoplay

the modified market compatibility fix is in this XDA post
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] captainreynolds:
Not a full fix though, b/c no upgrades and no purchased apps!

Hi, looking for some way to eliminate the echo they hear my interlocutor (a word that terminates in a second he hears it again), so since I installed the rom Virtual gLITE 2.0.1. On the other roms it was not the problem, but this rom most suits me and I want to be with him. Is there a fix that eliminates echo during the conversation?

You may want to try flashing a radio that fits this rom. Search this thread, it's in here somewhere!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Guru Zeb:
Might seem noobish but am still learning about ROMS, just want to be certain.

This ROM is ok for UK GSM Network Desire Z/G2,isn't it???

Just want to make sure am not gonna flash a USA Radio (I like you Colonials .... but not enough to brick my precious) :D

As far as i make out all i need to is flash the ROM as usual then flash APN Patch and I should be all good.

Yeah this bare bones approach sounds like the way forward for me.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] monomer888:
Yes it works out-of-the-box, so to speak. I used this ROM for several weeks a while ago on o2 in the UK and didn't need to change the radio firmware at all.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Guru Zeb:
Nice one thanks m8 :D

Is it possible to OC with this device? Or use a kernel that I can OC?

is there an sense 3,5 camera app avaible?

I have problem with echo during phonecalls. The person who I talk with, can hear him/herself.

Any help?

Good rom by all other means. friendlier than cm and as fast
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] magic_android:
You can't use any Sense camera apps on any AOSP ROM because those camera apps would need the Sense framework to function correctly and obviously, AOSP ROMs don't have the Sense framework xD.

Today I came up to a issue .. I can't oc to 1.4 using the interactive governer the phone freezes just seconds after temp activation (used oc/uv beater) . Oc to 1.4 using ondemand governer is no issue ..

1.4ghz using interactive governer = freeze/lock up

1.4ghz using ondemand governer = o.k.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] WTF?:
this is NOT the ROM to use for overclocking, beyond the mild stock overclock, and as the inventor of overclocking on PC's (in the early 1980's), I feel that I am qualified to discuss this. :D

There are other ROM's that run on the G2 that are much better suited to reliable overclocking.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cswroe:
Interactive governer is generally buggy when you get to the higher end of the available frequencies. I have tried adjusting some of the settings, but still get the same result as you; Really wish we could get Smartass working on this, but until then using interactive at 1.2.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] arsonist63086:
Oh ok screw it would be koo to fix that issue though. I myslef just have it oc at 1.0ghz ondemand, or interactive if I want it snapier . Just that I got bored and when full oc with interacive to see the quadrent scores in comperison to ondemand .. but oh well still kicking ass though ..

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] WTF?:
has anyone figured out how to deactivate the keyboard light sensor so that the keyboard backlight is on anytime the keyboard is flipped open? (short of a piece of electrical tape)

I still have occasional situations in darkness where the keyboard is opened and I have no backlight.

The keyboard light sensor works well in most situations, but the software is buggy - like when you get a text in the middle of watching a video on the phone at night, and flip the keyboard open to respond and there is no backlight.

The backlight uses very little power, so I would be fine if it were to just automagically come on ANYTIME the hardware keyboard is opened.

also, this ROM complains and kicks & screams if you try to disable the android on-screen keyboard in settings
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] arsonist63086:
I have no idea what you are complaining about. My keyboard light is always on when I'm using it (idont know if its on in hi light situations since can't see) and the light goes off when the screen goes off and comes on when I turn the screen on .. so as for your situation I don't experience it. I'm on experimental kernel.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] captainreynolds:
So... CRT on/off animations? Anyone want to give it a pass?

This guide is no help, doesn't work as far as I can tell - I've followed it through and through. I think there is something else specific to our rom that needs to be changed.

I flashed Andromadus for fun the other night, and it has them, which is why I bring it up.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] willham:

Havent been on this rom for a while. Can someone tell me if the camera flash work right. Flashes at the right time when taking a pic, unlike the sense roms.

Yes it does.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] captainreynolds:
Getting random shut downs. Hadn't been a problem until today - was typing a text and all of sudden the phone shut down.

Anyone know how I can figure out why? I'd like to know before I start attempting to fix it - and yes, I know I can likely clear the problem by reflashing the rom.

UPDATE:

Okay, now whenever I try to type a text, the phone turns off. Running an adb logcat on my computer now to see if I get anything.

UPDATE 2:

Have been unable to replicate that issue. Still need to find something that can tell me why the random shut downs are happening though.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Mnementh666:
Try using QtADB. It includes a relatively pleasant logcat window, and it should hold the last msgs available after shutdown.

Sounds like hardware issue, though. Maybe a short causing shut down?

Maybe try flashing CM7 or something right quick and see if it does it after boot and before setting up...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] monomer888:
+1

EDIT: Sorry Mnementh666, I quoted you because I agree with your point. The rest of the post is addressed to the person you were replying to :)

Are you doing anything else when you type a text? Like opening the hardware keyboard? I remember sporadic cases of Touch Pro 2 shutdowns where the device would suddenly go dead. The culprit was loose contact with the battery that was triggered by the physical action of opening the hardware keyboard.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] captainreynolds:
I'll try that, thanks.

And :eek:!! I hope it's not a short... I love my Desire Z!

Yeah, I open the hardware keyboard... I'll have to keep investigating all of this. I really don't have the time to flash another rom right now as I need my phone operationa;, but I'll use that logging application for now.

Later this week/weekend I'll post an update.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Mnementh666:
mmmmm... miss my TP2 keyboard. Still the finest phone keyboard I've had. :cool:

Yeah, i would be curious to see what the outcome is. Luckily there is the onscreen keyboard, and a few good teardown videos if it really is the flex cable or battery or some such.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] captainreynolds:
Hey everyone,

As you might know, the Google Market update recently has now completely shut off access to Android users who chose to change their LCD Density. If I wanted to download an app that the "Play" market deems incompatible, it doesn't even show up in searches.

So, I did what I normally do - suck it up, change my density to fugly 240 (ugh, shoot me), clear the data of the play store, and reboot.

However, no dice. It still does not show up in search, and if I browse the play store on my computer online and then log in, it tells me that the app is incompatible with all of my devices! No dice. How lovely.

I could always revert, but who knows what issues that could cause in the future. Anyone have ideas?

Also, I'm looking for a way to have a sort of two way calling system between only my phone and my mac. Like, where if I wanted to, I could wake up my mac remotely using my phone, and start having a conversation with anyone who happened to be near my computer. Sort of like skype, but only between my phone and the computer, and I can activate it even when my laptop is closed. Anyone have ideas there?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] arsonist63086:
You can try deleting the play store/update, wipe the market data and reboot and see if that works since the app will eventually update .. worth a shot
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cswroe:
Will the older version work? You can revert by renaming MarketUpdater.apk to MarketUpdater.apk.bak in system/app then go to Setttings/Applications/Market and uninstall the update(s). Should not prompt for update anymore.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] captainreynolds:
I did this. Thanks for the advice - it worked. Wow, I had like 15 apps that needed updating - from Gmail, google maps to the weather channel. Crazy how google can't figure out that my phone is perfectly compatible with these apps at 210 density. Oh well.

Smart idea - if I ever decide to revert, I will remember to do this. Thanks!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] scottmahoney:
I deleted my use_4g_icon from my G_lite directory but it won't switch back to the H icon any help?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] captainreynolds:
That folder only applies upon initial install of this rom. You have to reflash the rom for that setting (or lack thereof, I suppose) to take effect.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Elfjes:
After a quick dip into ICS I ran back to this smooth old rom for my Desire Z.

I'd like however to match the ril-files to my current radio. I experienced bad connectivity and high battery drain using the 04.19 radio (possibly due to me not being on T-mobile or in the US) so I'm currently on 04.03, which I find working better.

I have a few questions concerning this ril-matching.

-I found an old version (v3) of rmk's ril automatcher still lurking about on my phone. After applying it through CW recovery, nothing seems to have happened. I've checked libril.so and it was still the same as before. Is there a newer version of ril automatcher around somewhere i could try?

-I couldn't find a new version of the ril automatcher so I guess I'll have to it manually. I'm figuring I could just get the appropiate files from the "Vision Gingerbread Sense 2.42.405.2-WWE Untouched" or similar rom. Is this correct?

- What files do I need exactly? In the vision radio thread there's a link to the ril files of the 04.19 radio. This consists of the files: libril.so, libhtc_ril.so and libreference-ril.so. Are these the (only) files that I need?

-I also read somewhere that rmk's ril automatcher didn't work for AOSP roms but only for sensebased roms. Does this also mean I can't just get the appropiate files from "Vision Gingerbread Sense 2.42.405.2-WWE Untouched" or similar and copy them to the right location (/system/lib)? Or is the fact that G-lite is still based on a HTC kernel enough for this method to work?

-Any other things I need to consider?

wifi calling

Hi All,

I am currently using this rom on my desire Z with AT&T go phone plan. So, as per the OP, the wifi calling was auto removed.

I plan to switch to T-mobile monthly plan next month. WIll the wifi calling be auto enabled or will I have to flash the ROM again?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] captainreynolds:
You'll have to flash the rom again. Only thing you'll have to do is re-connect any google accounts you had synced, unless you've messed with any system level settings.

Allons-y!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kmmerwana:
Thanks mate. Wasn't planning re flashing the ROM but I guess no choice. Will let you know how it goes one I switch.

Does wifi calling work with prepaid? Does wifi calling use minutes?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] captainreynolds:
Works with prepaid, but not sure if it uses minutes or not. Might depend on the plan - I would say probably. Call T-mobile to be sure.
