Thanks mate, I should clarify some stuff. Regarding what you enumerated:

1 - Yes, on an incoming call the lockscreen is being ignored, I didn't see much point in elaborating on this, but why I did it should become clear on the next point

2 - Home button does nothing, but the back button does. When UCS is showing, if you press back you'll be taken to the default phone.apk screen. That is, if you need extra functionality other than answering/declining a call, just press back and you have all your standard dialer options available. From there you can do whatever you are used to do.

3 - This is because I'm handling UCS as an add-on, I'm not actually replacing the standard dialer. This causes that when a call comes in, the default screen will always show for a split second, and as soon as it shows, it gets pushed back. When exiting a call, UCS exits really fast, and the default screen shows up again. I could mask this by trying to delay UCS exit a bit, but it is kind of cheating...

As for facebook syncing, here comes the add-on nature of UCS again. I'm not actually modifying the phone contact list. This is on purpose, so when a user uninstalls UCS, there's no garbage left over. But UCS allows you to use your phone contact photo:

- go into UCS settings, un-check "default photo type". This will tell UCS that for global settings, if a contact as a photo on the phone (which could be synced from facebook by a 3rd party app), it will use it. You can override this behavior on a per-contact basis by going into the UCS contact manager, choosing the contact, and checking the first checkbox: for that particular contact override the global settings and use your own defined HD picture.

I don't know if I was clear enough. Also the UCS UI is work in progress, and liable to change in the near future.

Cheers

Hi guys, i have installed this new rom, and its all ok, but when i go to "veetle" and start wathing a movie or something, the screen jyust gives-me the sound and no image. Same at the xvideos, just sound. I'm missing something? Some app? Please, im new in "roots/roms/etc", and this is my first rom :)

So... please :o
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
enigmaamit:

the tasker disabling was just to track the issue, not to give it up completely! But in the tasker settings there are things like polling frequency (which are surely used in state-bases actions like yours) that could u«in orinciple be adjusted. And please loose the bold typeface, looks like you're screaming at me! :P

det: nice app mate! Will try it out. Beats the crap out of connection to shell and checking those values the hard way!

Cheers
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
Arggghhhh... Been out-classed. Again... :(

Thanks mate!
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
My dear friend, i would never scream at you.

And just to clarify, bold typeface signifies contrast and emphasis, whereas ALL-CAPS is the accepted typographical mode for screaming on the internet. !!

BOO-YAA!!! :D:D:D
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
See? There you go, screaming again. :P
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
That was intentional....!! :p
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
next version

Ok,

As you know, I base Reaper releases on the latest CM7 available source. As of last night, some interesting changes/fixes were introduced, so I'll probably build V1.2 tonight.

The fixes are mainly related to bluetooth, and I think someone already complained that their headset was not working. Also a new lockscreen based on the ICS branch was introduced, and I want to check it out.

I didn't build it yesterday because I was not sure how to proceed about kernel undervolting, so I'd like your input about this.

Currently I have introduced the tiamat frequency/voltage tables into the reaper kernel V1.2, as apparently the CM7 veterans swear these are great. These are already slightly undervolted regarding the CM7 "standard". In the same step, I exposed the vdd sysfs interface to the users, meaning you can under/over volt if you want to.

My doubts with this is that in Endy I had several problems with users that severely abused the undervolting, and also less "capable" devices, resulting on unstable devices.

So what say you the users? Do you want these features enabled and be responsible, or want the safe choice? Blue pill or red pill?

Cheers
[HTC Desire S] shrike011:
Thanx buddy, I expect impatiently 1.2 :)

Cheers !
[HTC Desire S] peters.:
Could you please include the stock adw launcher and original icons (maybe as addon)? If there is the option to have the red pill, and afterwards disable undervolting, I'll vote for the red one :-)
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
I think you should go ahead and give users the choice to change voltages as they see fit, but with a disclaimer (in BOLD, ALL-CAPS, if i may suggest :D:D;)) that no bug reports will be entertained on undervolted setups, and that prior to reporting bugs, they should revert settings to stock and see if that works.

Why i say this is that you'll see a different breed of users taking to this ROM. After the initial fascination of my publicity blitz wears off (just kidding), the performance junkies, or the so called puritans will remain. This group usually know what to do with their devices. And while there will be over-excited pubescent users screwing up all over the thread, the number will be small. Let this be a ROM developers can be proud of. Pull out all stops and go stark raving mad, buddy. I'm all with you!
[HTC Desire S] Desire S:
Ajuda-me :p
[HTC Desire S] first_damned:
Yes please give users the choice, maybe put on the first page about not going below/above a certain level/value as this will cause the device to become unstable.
[HTC Desire S] det66:
+1 I'm with enigmaamit on this
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
I assume you know how to use adb. You need to open a shell on the device with "adb shell". Then type:

chmod 000 ./data/data/com.veetle.android.lite/app_plugins/com.adobe.flashplayer/.macromedia/Flash_Player/config.data

That will get veetle working. This one I tried, but it should be valid for any other flash player. Just locate config.data of the flash player plugin, and "chmod 000" the file.

By the way, don't post in portuguese, it's rude. Just PM me if you need to!

Cheers
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
You can instal adw from market, I think there is no need for an additional addon cause of this.

I even use go launcher instead and also just installed it from market (or better said, had it installed because I "upgraded" from the cyanogen nighty).

Swyped from my desire s running damn sweet ice cream
[HTC Desire S] det66:
I agree mate think Go Launcher is better than ADW
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
Well, I plan to keep the main rom as it is now, including only the default Zeam launcher. But I will include "addon packages", including one for a set of launchers.

The reason I want to do this, instead of telling you to install from market, is the ridiculous amount of space left free on /system, which unless you flash the apps into there, will never get used.

Cheers

P.S. As for the zeam launcher, for me it has it all. What do you ghuys like so much about the others? The fastest one appears to be Launcher Pro, but it lacks drawer transparency and screen gestures. I configure Zeam to open the notifications bar when I swipe down, and to open the drawer when I swipe up. After you try it, it's like second nature.
[HTC Desire S] det66:
Yeah that seems to be a standard feature of all launchers lowveld mines set something like that too.Up is App drawer down is Home

I know this sounds daft but its the themes and icons,
[HTC Desire S] gsimeonov:
Thanks, lowveld, it's quite clearer now :)
[HTC Desire S] gordo79:
Hey lowveld I am having issues with my swiftkeyx keyboard after updating to your latest version, predictive has gone haywire you type a word hit space and it puts what it wants in. I have had to go back to the stock keyboard which is working fine but not half as pretty. I was running swiftkey x through all of your previous roms with no issues any idea? Cheers gordon
[HTC Desire S] StvnKwlzk:
Same problem with touchpal.
[HTC Desire S] SANGER_A2:
You tried doing a clear data on the keyboard app and then uninstalling it and reinstalling it? I had a problem with Swiftkey X when i upgraded to 2.1 and that fixed it for me.
[HTC Desire S] gordo79:
Yep tried all the above still no joy,will try again fingers crossed.

Nope tried all again no joy
[HTC Desire S] rel_dude:
Swiftkey X works fine for me, even after updating in both Hebrew and English.
[HTC Desire S] gordo79:
Left uninstalled for a few hours, reinstalled and working now very strange. All good nice keyboard to go with a very nice rom.
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
V2.2.2 update is out

Ok guys, minor update, basically related to UCS.

There was a bug that if you set the individual choice "Block all calls", even if you globally disabled the call blocker, it would still block them (Yeah, I learned this one the hard way).

Also, I added sensor-based actions: Turn to mute, reject, or loudspeaker. Note that the trigger is from the screen pointing up to the screen pointing down. That is, you have to actually turn the phone. Also for the particular case of the loudspeaker, turning it up again disables the loudspeaker.

UCS is slowly becoming what I wanted it to be. :)

Enjoy

V2.2.2 Changelog

- Fix issue with sound and screen settings (sorry about that)

- Fix issue in UCS where if you set "block all calls", even de-activating the call blocker, calls would still be blocked

- Added Sensor-based actions to UCS:

..... Turn to mute ringing on incomin call

..... Turn to reject incoming call

..... Turn to use loudspeaker on incoming/outgoing calls

Download V2.2.2 Updater (cumulative from V2.2)

http://desworks.de/android/reaper/Reaper_V2.2.2_updater.zip

Note: Install over V2.2/V2.2.1 only

MD5SUM: f93fff287a2361751c5d9bad39ef6dae
[HTC Desire S] batmobile_bang:
some feedback about UCS:

1. able to set HD pictures for selected contacts, it looks beautiful. Is it possible to search contacts in the contact manager of UCS settings, presently we have to scroll.

2. problem with UCS 'Turn to loudspeaker' sensor.. loud speaker was enabled by default when I received few calls. now I have disabled the same.

I think it should be possible to sync High def images on GB, there is an app called haxync on ics which achieves that.

loving the snappiness of reaper all over again.
[HTC Desire S] vampire36:
There is syncmypix...but somehow when I had given it a spin UCS still had burry images
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
Hey, thanks for the report. As for being able to search contacts, I'll see if I can add the feature. I agree it's very annoying if you have a long list (as I do). It's also getting on my nerves.

As for the sensor actions, I need to rethink the detection method. I need to do some 3D thinking, as it is now, I just realized it can be triggered by small variations when the phone is upright also...

UCS will use the pictures, and scale the minimum possible to use them full screen without aspect-ration distortion. That is, if you have a 400x300 picture, it will turn it to 800x600 so the hight is right, and center and crop the 600 to fit the 480 width of the desire. So it all comes down to what resolution syncpix stores the images as... I'll give the app a spin just to check everything is fine.

Cheers
[HTC Desire S] det66:
Hi lads just to let you know I'll be jumping ship ,some time next week I think.Have pre-ordered the One X .

BUG

Hi,

Nice Rom! But I got a bug on the FTL Launcher. I use 5 Rows and in each row is an 4x1 desktop vizualizer widget. If i restart the launcher, or go to the app drawer the 5th row is empty. Also a desktop vizualizer widget from 4th to 5th row is deleted.

Other thing, is it possible to disable the hotseats at all?

Thanks
[HTC Desire S] kozopulo:
Join the question about the kernel, will be there an update for it?
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
Ok, you may not realize it, but you've been very useful. Some users had reported similar issues, but I could never track it down/reproduce it on my device. With your report I can hopefully track your steps on the DS, and finally fix that!

Cheers

--- edit ---

Your issue was solved, and market versions updated. I'll update the Reaper version tomorrow or the day after. Again, thanks for the input!
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
I know that the kernel source has been updated, and tried to check what the changes were. But at the time I couldn't find the actual kernel source (in the CM repositories, only the compiled image is stored). When I started Reaper, I think Nexx had the source on his github, don't now if he took it down.

Anyway, once I get the source, I'll go through the changes and update if necessary.

Cheers
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
Ahhh... You'll be sorely missed mate. In DesireS relative time, there's a few of us that have been around forever, and it's sad to see them go.

But I understand the appeal, and we will eventually all go, and as HTC fans, we'll probably "meet" again.

Cheers (As in for real. Have one for me)

P.S. Keep on with Pratchett.
[HTC Desire S] det66:
Course I will mate .. Hope you keep up the rom dev for whatever phone you get as yours are without doubt the best out there!
[HTC Desire S] Px80:
Many thanks :)

But how do I get the fix? Will you release it or will it be OTR ? I registraded for something like that in cyanogenmod.

Other thing, but not that important.

I used Facebook before, to get the pics and the birthdays for my contacts. But in sync, theres no option for fb calender snyc. Also the pics aren't synced too. Is this a Rom prob or may Pdroid be the prob?

But great Rom, very fast Launcher ! Nice
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
Hey,

Market users automatically get the update. For the reaper version I have to generate and updated version. Usually I change the minor revision number of Reaper version, and provide a flashable to upgrade. So you'll have to flash something like "Reaper_V2.2.3_upgrader.zip" when I post it.

As for facebook contact/pic syncing, that is cyanogen related. If you ever had that working, I bet it was on a HTC based rom, be it stock or custom like Endy.

Cheers
[HTC Desire S] Px80:
Ah ok, so that won't work with your Rom? It's the first time i use cyanogen, but i like it much. Very fast and almost everything except GPS and FB is working. :) I used costum Sense 3.5 Roms before. Would Reaper also run on sense roms or ICS? This Aproid patch function is very nice!
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
Yes, facebook contact sync will only work natively on Sense roms. As for "Would Reaper also run on sense roms or ICS? " I think you are a bit confused: Reaper is a rom, it's not something you cam install on top of another rom.

If you were asking if FTL will run on sense roms or ICS, the answer is yes. You can choose the Lite version from market for free, but it has some limitations, or buy the Pro version. The version of FTL included in Reaper is the Pro one, because I choose to give it for free to Reaper users. The same does not apply to other roms though. :)

Cheers
[HTC Desire S] SimonTS:
aGPS Patch

Hi Lowveld,

Brilliant ROM - I've come back to it again. I like it so much that I bought the FTL launcher as well to stick on other ROMs when I use them.

Anyways ... Could you please (whenever the next patch is) include an option within the aGPS patch settings to install the "No SSL" version of the patch?

Thanks again.

As a second point ... I already have the Pro version of FTL (which I guess is identical to the version you bundle into Reaper). When I resotre my apps, I then end up with two copies of FTL Launcher installed. Is there a way to get Reaper to recognise that you have paid for the Pro version and just display a single copy within Reaper ROM? Not a big problem, but slightly annoying none-the-less.
[HTC Desire S] SANGER_A2:
Just use es explorer and delete \system\apps\ftl.apk. I did that after installing as I prefer launcherpro.
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
Ultimate Call Screen now on market

Ok guys, I guess most of you guessed where this was going. :)

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lowveld.ucs

As with FTL, there is a Pro version, but you guys don't need it, I will keep reaper updated.

Regarding the current version on Reaper, there are some improvements, which I will port back here.

If you guys want to support me, just download the free version, give it a spin, and if you like it, leave some feedback on market.

This was the most time consuming project since I began on android. But I feel it reached a very good point now. Let's see how it goes!

Cheers, and thank you all for putting up with my recent lack of free time. Well, now you know why. :)

No problems here. Try wiping your cache and dalvik cache - see if that resolves it. Otherwise try a new install after carrying out a full wipe and making all partitions EXT4.

Nice rationalization there. :) I'm happy for you man, seems like a tremendous device from everything I read about.

Personally (and someone asked this recently), I'm more inclined to the One S because of the size (your pics seem to confirm my fears). But I will hold any decision until I get my hands on both.

Also I won't upgrade at least until Christmas, before anyone asks if I'm jumping boat. Also I'll keep the Desire S even when I upgrade, as I've grown attached to it after all "we've got through together".
