HTC LiveWallpaper Slideshow Problem on ICS

This bug has appeared in every ICS ROM for the Sensation and I am actually surprise no one has reported it. This minute, subtle, annoying bug has driven me face first against a wall :mad:. Before I start explaining the problem here are some screenshots.

Left Image:

This is how the wallpaper SHOULD look like when using HTC LiveWallpaper Slideshow. As you can tell it is not magnified and zoomed in. This is how it looked like when using HTC LiveWallpaper Slideshow on Gingerbread.

Right Image:

The wallpaper is obviously magnified using HTC LiveWallpaper Slideshow. Every image is zoomed in and distorted affecting its quality.

Solution I have tried but failed:

People have told me it was due to the wrong ratio size of the wallpaper. This is NOT TRUE! Regardless of ratio of the wallpaper, it will never magnify the image because this had never happened in Gingerbread. Despite that, I have gone ahead and used wallpapers that were 540x960 and lower. No matter what ratio the wallpaper is, using HTC Livewallpaper Slideshow on ICS, it will always magnify the pictures.

Help:

I primarily use HTC Livewallpaper Slideshow to display pictures of my family and friends but I am unable to do so because of the magnification issue. Imagine a baby face instead of a tree in the screenshot and how it will look. Just very annoying looking through a Slideshow of smudged and disoriented faces.

I don't know much about porting, but is anyone able to just port the GB HTC LiveWallpaper Slideshow on to ICS directly? Or will that cause a problem? Please, can someone look in to it?

Here's a bug I found.

When using the original messaging app, you hold onto a text to get the sub menu to copy the text message onto your clipboard. And then when you try to paste it somewhere else, it has something completely different copied onto the clipboard. I have to hold onto the text and copy it around 5 times until it successfully copied onto the clipboard.

For Example, my friend texted me his address and I held onto that text with the address to get the sub menu so that I can copy it onto my clipboard so that I can paste it onto Google Navigation. And when I copied it once and then went to the navigation app and pasted it there, it pasted an entirely different text from a different person and conversation which I've never copied before. And again I have to copy it onto the clipboard around 5 times until it gets it right.

Hope there's a fix for this!

Yes. It's in the Nova Settings > Desktop > Infinite Scroll - tick the box.

Automatic brightness

Sorry for my inability to keep up; I understand that there used to be an issue where, when playing videos, the 'automatic brightness' setting didn't seem to have an effect, often resulting in very dark video playback. Is this still an issue?

Anyone can recommend replacement for pure calendar widget as it does not working properly? It does not start the calendar app.

I also would need a contacts widget which works properly with a 5x5 homescreen layout.

Apart from that no problems so far!

App restore on first boot?

Does anyone know why the market doesn't automatically restore my apps on first boot? From playing with android on both my HD2 and sensation, I noticed that if I don't immediately log in to my account on setup, it won't sync. Though usually it will after a reboot.

This ROM doesn't prompt the login/setup on first boot and even after logging in and enabling all syncing, it doesn't do anything. Nor after several reboots. So far I've had this issue a lot on my sensation, but the HD2 roms I used (currently on nexushd2 ics) all automatically start restoring apps and settings without much fuss.

Is there a setting somewhere to change, like in build.prop or so?
[HTC Sensation] DeezNotes:
The stock calendar widget doesn't show any events. Has anyone else noticed that?
[HTC Sensation] R3dox:
If you open it, it asks for login (at least here) and after that it was fine. Could also need a reboot.

i'm getting a problem with poweramp app. as soon as the screen turns off/locks the music stops.

a search turned up this which suggests the problem is 'rom' rather than 'app' based and is due to the rom powering off opengl when it locks the screen

anyone else having similar problems? any suggestions?

mortplayer works fine so have reverted back until a fix is found.

Contatcs

I noticed whenever I go into messaging and compose a new message. If I start to type a name it will not bring up the phone number but if I type in the phone number it will display the associated name. Also, if I go into the people app and select someone I wish to SMS then select the button to SMS them it just brings me to the main message screen and does not start a new convo with them. So, in order to text anyone I have to look them up in people, remember their phone number, open message app, start a new convo and type the number in manually. Please tell me there is an easy fix for this.

I've read that some phones have problems with the latest firmware, using the slightly older one might resolve.

Otherwise I'd check the md5 of both the firmware and ROM files, flash the super wipe script and try again. You might want to format your SD card as well first.

I have found what I believe is the same bug though a different symptom.

When I open a conversation and delete one message by long pressing and selecting delete it removes a different message. But when I long press and select details twice the next time I delete it removes the correct message.

It should probably be noted that this happens with the mms.apk that ships with the ROM and the dark one I nabbed elsewhere.

Hi - flashed this ROM last night after trying numerous Sense ROMS and the speed is great.

Thanks
[HTC Sensation] scm_crash:
Has anyone discussed Android 4.0.4. I'm not an Android developer, so I'm not sure what is involved with it, but I'm thinking that HTC would have to release a base with 4.0.4, correct? Or is it something where the changes can be merged? I figure that if it was that simple, it would have been done already and there's probably a ton of work to even make that an option(?)
[HTC Sensation] Kellicros:
I have been with this ROM for a few weeks and all is great but I have problem with touch screen freezing and not working during the Call Answer screen, however, if I press the Power button to switch it off and then back on screen would work, not a biggie since i don't miss a call but it is quite annoying.

Another thing is, it seems like it is impossible to upload multiple photos via the official gallery app, any work around for this? Sense Gallery had no problem with this,

Anyone else had the issue of google play timing out after installing this? Couldn't figure out a solution so went back to my stock rooted ROM for now.

I read on Twitter you get almost 48 hours out of one charge. Can you share your setup?
[HTC Sensation] Solidus_n313:
thats what i get since i started using this rom (early beta days, around xmas) which is the #3 reason i LOVE this rom

stock kernel @1.5gHz (192min) ondemand badass, regular use (average browsing daily sites a few times and a few phone calls a day), auto-brightness, rotate off, bt/wifi/gps off (unless needed), vibrate off for all except ring, and all google services sync live.

also RMK, i just got my HDMI MHL adapter, and when hooked up (yes, properly ;P) the image keeps flashing on and off every few seconds, but doesnt lose connection...any testing done with this or experience? i know that LOTS of ICS roms are having trouble with this, but it kinda works with your rom, so i was wondering if you have any insight

thanks
[HTC Sensation] Sinistah_:
It's a anyone else having trouble downloading these files? I really want the modded version lol
[HTC Sensation] pnut22r:
Thanks bro. When you say stock kernel, do you mean the stock kernel of the rom, or THE stock ICS kernel for sensation
[HTC Sensation] Solidus_n313:
the one that comes with the rom (3.0.16-v1.4.1 sebastianFM#1), which im pretty sure is always sebs kernel for the longest time now

wtf how did you flash this rom if you are s-on. yes you need the firmware. it will not work without firmware. just go s-off.

Yea for whatever reason when I wake my phone after wifi has powered down it will not reconnect to the network. It only happens sometimes though.

---------- Post added at 12:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:08 AM ----------

Sorry but don't hold your breath I think the tmobile base will be the final update for the sensation. If you want 4.0.4 go to any opensensation/cm based rom.
[HTC Sensation] StuartTheFish:
You can't be using that kernel if you are using the badass governor, since it doesn't have it.
[HTC Sensation] leeskywalker:
Was thinking the same thing
[HTC Sensation] scm_crash:
That's pretty much what I'm figuring too.

I'm waiting for OpenSensation to be a bit more stable and to see if there's a way to get WMV to play natively like it does on Sense. I understand how codecs work, but I'm not an Android developer so I have no idea how to work with codecs on Android.

I ran OpenSensation for a day, and while it was pretty good, it still lacked a couple things I need in my 'daily driver'.

I really want to get the HTC Keyboard because it has the "phone" layout which is what I use for T9.

Or just anyway I can pull over the HTC keyboard to work with this.

Its based of 3.6 . 4.0 would be pointless since its all going to be stripped and replaced with AOSP stuff, and 4.0 has many things not working
[HTC Sensation] geoffcorey:
Where did you put the keyboard apk? If you put it in /system/app, you also need a library file. Try putting it in /data/app.
[HTC Sensation] l2icky:
That didn't work either. What is the lib file that goes with it? I've gone through everything in systems and found "ime" files.

I placed HTC_IME. apk in system/app

ime.jar in system/framework

ime in in system/bin

Not sure that these files are even related. This is the first time I have really tore into any system files, other then adding Dolby app.

Set all permissions. I can not find an "ime" file in system/lib - am I looking for the wrong thing?

Maybe libinput.so in the /system/lib/ folder?

It's the exact same zip I installed on mine, and as you can see from the screenshot, yes it works. You should have stuff in the META-INF folder. Forget copying and setting permissions, simply install the zip from clockworkmod or 4ext, then select touch input once you've rebooted.

Hello,

I'm Using the VI rom for quit some time, and swapped this weekend to hypernonsense because i have 2 payed games downloaded that would not play. First one is cut the rope and second one is assassins creed altair chronicles.

Before swapping the rom i've tryed several other kernel's but the problem stays the same.

With the faux 005B3 kernel i don't have any wifi acces? Kinda strange.

After loading the hypernonsense rom, cut the rope works as it needs to be. Assassins creed keeps on crashing on the same place.

Strange thing is the cut the rope works on another rom and not on the VI rom. Anybody an idea what i can check more to get the game(s) playing on the vi rom?

Thanks in advance,

keep u the good works.
