I have two lockscreens. I have the original lockscreen that has two icons with the time and date in the top left of the lockscreen. Then if I unlock that, I have the ICS lockscreen that I want.

How do I get rid of the first lockscreen and just keep the ICS lockscreen?
[HTC Amaze 4G] bangsters:
It might have something to do with go locker. I've been reading that others have been experiencing battery drain with the custom locker. I have disabled it and replaced it with Widget Locker. I also disabled the live syncing of FB (since the only thing I really sync would be the contacts and pics of FB).

So far 7AM i unplugged my phone, used it like I've been doing all my phones, it's 10:30PM and I have 25% battery remaining (Oh I have the Anker 1900mah battery if that matters).

For widgets, I only have the contacts and calendar, and fancy widgets for my clock. I did not add any of my email accounts yet (I normally have 4-5 email accounts that all do push on my other phones and I survive a full day).

So what you guys think, battery drain normal for my type of use? a few phone calls, words with friends, a few texts.

Thanks
[HTC Amaze 4G] bangsters:
OK I removed the go locker.... my phone has been up for over a day :)

that's good.

Now time to add my emails back

Thanks again. This is a very good and stable rom.
[HTC Amaze 4G] unittdot:
I absolutely love this ROM, very fast and stable. I am running into two (very bothersome) issues:

When someone calls when my phone is locked, I have to unlock my phone to see who it is and to answer.

The camera quick button only wakes the phone but does not launch the camera (the camcorder works fine)

I tried looking for solutions in this thread, but no one has seemed to report call answer issue before (the camera launch issue has been brought up). Overall, very good ROM; keep up the good work!

EDIT:

After much reading (on the BEASTMod thread) I found a way around the call answer issue, with the MILOCKER.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Preaak:
sound keeps playing after exiting games.. never turns off even when the screen is off?

this rom is awesome so far!

edit...

works find after I flashed again..

any suggestions to get the most out of the battery life?
[HTC Amaze 4G] funkadesi:
Everytime I try to install this rom, I get a error message in recovery saying..

"E:Error in /sdcard/fourth_bar_sense

(Status 1)

Installation aborted."

Any idea why this could be happening?
[HTC Amaze 4G] gs00000:
I would like to know also.. ive tried so many different things but a day and half on 1 charge is amazing. ive been running juice defender to disable radio when phones locked and have setcpu to run @ 540mhz when the screen is off. i have every app to not sync anything. battery is conditioned....

any help tips appreciated, im running this rom on stock kernel, ive tried other kernels but really doesntt help much if at all.
[HTC Amaze 4G] NRGZ28:
You probably have a bad ZIP file. Try transferring it again. Or simply restart the recovery.
[HTC Amaze 4G] funkadesi:
it turns out that theres something with this rom, I installed a different recover 5.0.2.x and it installed fine. :confused:
[HTC Amaze 4G] misfit61871:
The best thing you can do is flash a kernel that supports under volting, the get system tuner pro from the market and lower all your frequencies. I got over 12+ hours after my first round of lowering my freqs and calibrating my battery, I've lowered them even further and expect to see my battery lasting much longer after a few more charge cycles.

@craigtut

This is the first ROM I have flashed since getting and rooting my amaze, and I love it, makes me feel like I'm still using my G2, lol. Flashed faux's 008 kernel, got her UV'd and all is running smooth.

The only issue I noticed I'd when I was trying to set up my Google voice it would go through the set up then when I tried to change to Google voice from my carrier I kept getting an error saying it could not change and forced me back to my carrier. I uninstalled Google voice and tired again still the same issue. I noticed that when I first enabled wifi calling that my signal bars turned grey with a little x next to them, so I disabled wifi calling and tried Google voice again and it finally set up with no hiccups.

I also noticed that with wifi calling enabled none of my text messages were being sent.

Other than that everything is running smooth.

Thanks for the great ROM!

Can't wait till we get some pure AOSP or CM ROM's though, I don't really like sense at all.

[HTC Amaze 4G] dadogintown:
Hey craigtut...great rom! Been using since the 1st hour I got my hands on this phone.. I was wondering if it would be too much work for this rom to support ota updates? This is my first true android device so I went ahead and purchased rom manager pro and that's basically what the app was asking...

Thanks in advance sorry if it is a far fetched request..
[HTC Amaze 4G] jcparks:
I've flashed most of the roms in the amaze forum and have same error, although gv voicemail is still functional. Also happened stock.

Don't dismiss the stock kernel before trying it a few days, I personally can't get any noticeable benefit from faux's kernel undervolted.
[HTC Amaze 4G] misfit61871:
Well I got 19 hours out of my second charge cycle, so something has improved. That's a 7 hour gain from the first cycle with normal use.

It is definitely an improvement over the stock kernel, which I was using for the first few days after rooting.

[HTC Amaze 4G] knifeproz:
This happened to me. When you get into recovery hit wipe and wipe everything except for battery stats. This will make you lose everything though so, you should probably use a back up app.

Question: I keep getting an error when I try updating go launcher ex and it tells me to re install the app but its impossible to remove it. Help please?
[HTC Amaze 4G] misfit61871:
Have you tried uninstalling with titanium backup? That's how I did it, because I use adwex.

Sent from the Morgue!
[HTC Amaze 4G] knifeproz:
Clap for me for I am an idiot xD I used titanium and it did uninstall it. Without thinking I didn't back it up...the version that kept giving me errors apparently said "compatibility issues" and closed...now I have no launcher....LOOOOL..time to reinstall from xD

but of all seriousness the fact that

a. I can't tell what my battery percentage is

b. The fact I can't update this app

and c. Wish for better battery life(just downloaded juice defender) are the only things that I'd say are bad about this Rom.

Thanks a lot for building it! First week with the phone and flashed this rom first day, very satisfied :)
[HTC Amaze 4G] mrgwap:
Hey i love thos rom, one issue. Wen i get calls i still jave to unlock my screen how do i fix this
[HTC Amaze 4G] craigtut:
Mine doesn't do this, so I really can't help all that much. Are u using htc's default dialer? Or one from the market?
[HTC Amaze 4G] misfit61871:
Try flashing faux's 008 kernel, then get system tuner from the market and under volt your CPU frequencies, that should help with battery life. I've been averaging about 16 hours since I did that.

[HTC Amaze 4G] GuyInDogSuit:
What exactly is this "Fourth Bar" nonsense about?
[HTC Amaze 4G] craigtut:
Ummm... What?
[HTC Amaze 4G] charlatan01:
Craigtut, I gotta tell you this ROM rocks. Been running it a few days and it's solid. Undervolting on Faux's Kernel makes the battery last even longer too!

I too have an issue with needing to unlock to see who's calling, but I use a custom launcher, so I dunno what's up there. No big deal to me...

Thanks for a great ROM! Keep the updates flowin' :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] knifeproz:
i think he's referring to the first post that says "fourth bar" and then "no sense launcher" ...but no clue other then that XD

one thing: Craigtut do you know what is going on with the unlock to answer a call? I see many people get that and I do too, i mean its not too big of a deal but semi annoying if youre answering your phone late :P
[HTC Amaze 4G] craigtut:
I have no idea, I am using the go launcher that comes with it and the go locker that comes with it and mine works perfectly. It always unlocks itself whenever people call. You could uninstall or disable the go locker and try a different one and maybe that would solve your issues. Are you using a different launcher, lockscreen, or dialer that doesn't come with the Rom?

Other than that though, I really have no idea...
[HTC Amaze 4G] softwaretech:
I have to share, for this device... best ROM so far. Great job. Closest I've seen to Cyanogenmod. Thanks!
[HTC Amaze 4G] fuego77:
You have future plans for this Rom ? Thinking about flashing it again lol
[HTC Amaze 4G] knifeproz:
I'm using everything that came with it and uninstalled the go locker. Even tried to re flash
[HTC Amaze 4G] craigtut:
So here is where I am at with this Rom. Its mostly finished as far as I want to and can take it. There are a few things that I need to fix and finish so I think there will be one more version before I call it finished: Google search isn't working, Go Launcher has needed an update for a while, beats audio I believe is out for any gingerbread rom now (I could be wrong), and some smaller parts of the theme still needs finishing. Hopefully I can try and talk someone who is more of an expert than I am to help me finish some of the harder parts.

It may be a while still before this is done though, I've been rather busy with other things lately. However, I will try and slowly get this finished cause this might just be as close to stock Ics as we will get.
[HTC Amaze 4G] craigtut:
And even the default android lockscreen makes you unlock it first before answering?

I wish I could help, but I don't have the slightest clue as to what is happening. Mine just brings up the red and green answer and hangup buttons as soon as I get a call. I wish I could help you a little more... does it do this with other Roms or just Four Bar?
[HTC Amaze 4G] knifeproz:
Honestly this is the only romother than stock i tried so I wouldn't know...but its all good thanks (:
[HTC Amaze 4G] fuego77:
Thanks for your quick reply, I'm always switching between sense and this Rom lol . u recommend faux kernel?
[HTC Amaze 4G] craigtut:
I haven't tried faux 0.8 at all. I really wanted stability so I've been just using the stock tmobile 1.43 kernel. Battery life isn't a huge issue for me since I'm not a heavy user of my phone all day long. I've been getting about 34+ hours on one charge (I'll upload screenshot below).

All I do know about faux is that 0.0.7 crashed a lot...
[HTC Amaze 4G] windcan:
How did you fix the caller ID issue? I have the same problem, thanks.
[HTC Amaze 4G] GuyInDogSuit:
The name "Fourth Bar." What is it referring to?
[HTC Amaze 4G] craigtut:
Haha, well I just wanted an interesting name. And I was listening to the song "Set Fire to the Third Bar" by Snowpatrol at the time. I figured I'd change it to fourth bar because having four bars of signal on your phone is better than three! :p

I don't have any idea why this is happening to some people and not others. I have never had this issue on my phone so I really can troubleshoot it. I guess just try a different locker, dialer, or launcher to see if it changes it.

Does the default android lock screen do this to you too?

To anyone that was interested, the Crt Animation addon is now up (Just Xboarder's modified to work)! Just flash it anytime after your first boot.

caller ID not showing when screen locked

i uninstalled go locker

is it possible to uninstall go launcher ex?

I have same problem with adw launcher ex :( - cannot see caller ID for incoming calls when phone locked

Ah, ok, I kinda figured that was the reason. No other ROM has four signal bars, that I know of.

[HTC Amaze 4G] craigtut:
I have removed picasa image support. Thats why your Google pics don't sync. I'm not sure why the Gmail issue is there. Is it really that much of a problem though?
[HTC Amaze 4G] misfit61871:
Ok, here us an odd bug, when I open the you tube app and play a video I see half the video and the other half is my camera. I have seen this happen during transitions from screen to screen as well. For example when I'm in the phone app and click on contacts I will briefly see my camera view in the background during the transition.

Edit: I think I solved the problem, I still had the beastmod kernel installed from checking out that ROM. So I flashed faux's 008 back on and all is good so far.

google pictures and gmail

I like using all of google services and use google pictures vs. storing photos locally on the phone.

For the gmail issue it is just a concern that I am sending from the correct account/address every time and I manually select my account every time.

I really do appreciate the work and was also noting it hear for feedback.

I also love how this ROM is stripped down and de-sensed.

[HTC Amaze 4G] brooklynite:
Loving the ROM so far but two simple issues:

1) The magnifier hard button on the phone doesnt open the keyboard and google search when on the home page. It works in the browser tho just doesnt function on the homescreen. Touching the Google Search widget doesnt do anything either, doesnt bring up the cursor nor the keyboard.

2) I am not a big sense fan so I like the de-sensing here and like how you saved the great sense camera app for instance. However I absolutely miss the HTC Swype keyboard to a point that I may go back to another ROM that still has the HTC swype keyboard. Is there anyway to flash that onto this ROM? The ICS key board is absolutely moronic with tiny keys and the most idiotic way to get underscore typed in.

On another note, I had the caller ID not showing and having to unlock phone to see whos calling me but I think I changed the LOCK screen to the other free option (ICS looking one) and it has not happened yet. Here is how to do it from the home page hit MENU/preferences/visualsettings/Golocker/GoLockerEnable (tick to activate).
[HTC Amaze 4G] GuyInDogSuit:
I think the caller ID issue is a bug in GoLocker. Someone mentioned it, maybe it's in the first post.

Swype can be downloaded, for free, from the Swype website. Sign up for their beta testing and you will get a link to download the installer. Make sure your browser is set to Android user agent or similar, or it won't download.

You may be right on that, I uninstalled go launcher because I prefer adwex and anytime someone calls me I see the caller id.

caller ID issue - resolved

hello, I was one of the people having issues with caller ID not showing on incoming calls when the phone was locked.

I uninstalled go locker and was using adw ex launcher, issue persisted.

I thought I should try go launcher ex again and re installed go locker.

Now, caller ID is showing!

No idea on why or what is different as set up is the exact same as when first installed ROM and using Go launcher and go locker.

Anyway, if having issue, uninstall, re install and enable go locker and should work.
[HTC Amaze 4G] GuyInDogSuit:
Actually, if anyone else has this issue, someone mentioned disabling GoLocker, then re-enabling it, so see if that fixes it.
[HTC Amaze 4G] brooklynite:
Thanks for the hint, I dont have that widget on my screen and still have the problem. Not a big deal, I installed Google Search widget (the 1x1 icon looking thing).

---------- Post added at 09:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:20 AM ----------

I rooted my phone and installed a few ROMs and eventually settled on this as it looks the coolest and its fast.

The reason I did this was because I wanted free tethering as I had on my G1 and G2 for years. But it doesnt work. Any tethering that comes with the phone or the ROM is a paid service, when I open the browser on my computer after connecting to the phone it goes to TMobile page. The Wifi Tether app that requires root runs and shows it is tethering but nothing happens really, my devices dont see it in the WiFi list.

Anyone know how to wifi tether with this ROM? or ANY ROM on the Amaze without paying double fees to TMobile?

[HTC Amaze 4G] YungMage:
did you have to have insurance for that? when one of your pixel died the color on displayed got thrown of bad?
[HTC Amaze 4G] craigtut:
I didn't have insurance but the phone has a 1 year warranty on it. It cost 20 dollars for shipping but I thought that it was worth it. The vibration mechanism was broken too. And as for the pixel, it was a constant whitish blue color so anytime the screen was black it stood out like a sore thumb.
[HTC Amaze 4G] gypsy214:
20 dollars for a replacement. When u have insurance you phone will have warranty for life. I always pay $5 for replacement or its the shipping but I don't pay more. Last replacement I did. That operator told me that it was $20 and I told him not that the cost for a replacement is $5. Well he had to change it and said oh yeah. I'm sorry sir u are right it its $5. Well I know this cause my best friend used to work for tmobile as tech support. Now no more as they closing that call center.

An update on whats going on with Fourth Bar

Its been a slow process of finding small little things and tweaking the code but its coming along. I would say that its about 70% finished and I'm hoping to get the rest done by next week. This will be the final major update (small bug fixes will still get addressed). Its looking amazing so far!
