lowveld,

i couldn't find any answer to my question, please help.

when listening to

fm radio

, lets say someone send a message from whatsapp, no notification sound comes from the headset. if I checked the notification setting in de CM settings(under sound), then both speaker and headset works.

Also, again when listening fm radio, if I call someone, I can hear nothing.

radio is muted in both cases, both no sound comes.

is it miui radio problem or a rom problem or anything else?
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
Totally agree, lovely read....although you should post the same over in the endy thread....

Keep up the good work, will consider moving from Endy for ICS sense 4 when it exists..and you release it ;)

[HTC Desire S] molchmolch:
Hello lowveld

nice talk, indeed! Keep the good work up and running.

I love to see Reaper on ICS ;)

--------

I think I solved my problem.

From now on I use 4ext for recovery, which gave me the opportunity to format boot. Probably the problem lies somewhere there...

by the way, greatest GB-ROM...
[HTC Desire S] Treti:
No you didn't and even if I would go and get a used second or third hand DS as quick as I can. I must admit that this is for very long time that I have kept a device for now almost a year. And this is largely because of you dude! Reaper is a real great experience and I do not miss sense anymore. Amazing but true. I was already thinking what to do when you switch to a different device. I am sure I would follow you.

Currently, I am extremely busy with work and life but I hope that I ll be back to kind of normal life in few weeks.

i m experience a little bit of strenge problem...doas anyone have freeze with the camera app? when i touch the screen ok but when i leave my finger it freezes the pic.It working but i have to keep my finger on it...before changing the app if there is a fix....
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
No man... can't say i've ever had that problem on Reaper...
[HTC Desire S] sotmax:
rom is great and this is the only problem...i ll try to find a solution..i m sure is not from the rom
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
How about third party camera apps from the market? Do they work fine, or is your problem present on them too?

And how about other ROMs? Endymion for example... do u have this problem there too?
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
Hey,

The problem is your Desire S hardware revision. Newer batches have problems with CM7 kernels, and with reaper kernel as it was where I started from. I already tried to figure out the issue, but was unsuccessful.

The problem does not happen in Endy...

Cheers
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
Ahh... read that somewhere, but couldn't recollect it while answering. Well, diagnosis arrived at, then.

Solution : I guess that'll be either 3rd party camera apps, or a different ROM.
[HTC Desire S] SANGER_A2:
Damn! I must have been lucky before as it didn't happen with Zulugen 1.2.0 and Tiamat 1.1.5! Does anyone know of a kernel that supports IP tables (ie works with autoproxy) and has the smartass v2 governor? Reaper kernel didn't work with autoproxy and I need that to be able to use my phone at work.
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
Zulugen is based on old code, tiamat 1.1.5 works fine there. As for iptables support, I honestly thought I included it on Reaper kernel, but if it's not there, it will surely be included on next version.

But just to rule out iptables support issue, can you try to install droidwall and see if it is working? That app packs its own iptables version, and it it is working, it's not the kernel fault, but the iptables binary on Reaper. If that is the case, I'll also update it next version.

Cheers

@enigmaamit: market cameras to my knowledge will also not work, The problem is the camera preview, and should happen with every camera app as they use the same low-level functionality. But the camera itself should be working though...

Cheers
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
:D Then I guess I'm just lucky to have the old hardware!! :D
[HTC Desire S] sotmax:
Yep...i ve extract the rom and check it is fine...probably hardware as you say...get back to endy again.

Didn t have a problem at all with endy..just like the speed of reaper...we will see... I maybe try to modify kernel or something...thanks a lot..
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
Lovely, really nice to read your way through android :)

Gather together oh ye minions of Lord Lowveld. It is time to persuade the magician to wave his wand once more. (We want ice cream!)

Sorry for the melodrama...but you get the point!
[HTC Desire S] SANGER_A2:
I'll try going back to the Reaper Kernel tonight and see how it goes with autoproxy and droidwall. From what I remember, I tried every single proxy app I could find and Autoproxy was the only one that did. That was with tiamat though.

Any chance you could add an update zip file with just the reaper kernel in to your first post. Then it can be installed over Tiamat/stock etc? Also, other ROM users can try your kernel. Maybe you could include the ReaperControl.apk too for them to try out. This way I don't have to download the whole ROM again just to get the original kernel! ;) I have no Internet at home at the moment and I don't have a lot of download usage left on my phone. :mad:

Cheers

Ok done. I'm so fast that XDA got confused and marked the thread as being from February the 3rd... :D

Seriously, I keep that thread updated for the reasons you mentioned, but as it's not that used, it keeps falling behind on the listing and people forget about it.

As for reaper control, it's tied to Reaper framework, wouldn't work on other roms...

Cheers

Thanks very much. I'll let you know how droidwall works with it.
[HTC Desire S] first_damned:
Sometimes Facebook closes itself and the same with zedge wallpaper app. I have cleared the app data but still the same. Any ideas anyone please? Otherwise a brilliant rom ive been using this rom for a while now since it came out, if i flash another rom i always come back to this.
[HTC Desire S] sotmax:
Hardware seems to be ok.Any camera app from market work great.Also skype works fine.Problem is with the cm7 camera.Try to push official cm7 apk still the same.

I will try something else and we ll see...
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
The included is the official cm7 apk.

Wait for next build, maybe it's solved there and use an third party app meanwhile.

Or is it that important to use the cm7 app?

Swifted from my Desire S far away from my PC
[HTC Desire S] sotmax:
lol nothing is important as my front camera for skype works fine.Just to make it perfect.

I will try to fix it someway...

EDIT:

I see that somehow even from full wipe my device probably didnt do a full wipe.

The setup screen never came up and some settings remains the same like other previews roms.

Any ideas?
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
Which recovery are you using?

And how did you wipe all (everything seperate or all with one command)?
[HTC Desire S] sotmax:
I m using 4ext(touch doesn t matter).

Wipe all partitions except sd dalvik & cache.

In official cm7 it prompt me to set up however camera is the same as reaper.

In reaper i cant see the setup screen but as camera is faulty i get back to endy.

It s a little bit strange as camera do that only in cm7 and that as an app not as a kernel or something else.Kernel is fine whole rom is fine and only the apk is the problem as i can see.I will work on it this afternoon to find a solution just for others that maybe have same problems..
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
Reaper does not prompt for google accounts setup. There was an issue that Tectas reported a while back that if you jumped the settings, the status bar would FC and some more strange stuff. So a couple of versions back I took out the wizard. To add the google account you have to go to "accounts and sync" and set it up there.

As for the camera thing, good news. Previous reports indicated to me that nothing worked... Now it seems it's only the stock camera app malfunctioning...

Cheers

--- edit ---

and some stuff does get stored on the sdcard, so full wipe won't affect it. I first noticed when clean-installing some roms, and the wallpaper would always be the same.
[HTC Desire S] sotmax:
It doesn t bother me the wizard but i found my stores wifi adress in there...as for the sd i m using different cards and always clean when i try out new roms.

That seems to happens once(maybe forgot something in wipe area) so everything is ok now.

I really like that rom.Hits almost 2600 out of the box and with some settings i saw 2900 in benchmarks....preety good..
[HTC Desire S] Andy3105:

Ah, right, thanks for informing det!

I was am on Tiamat kernel, and couldn't open up OC beater to UV. I was considering switching to this ROM, but would like to UV the kernel.

So does OC beater app work with Reaper Kernel?

Sent from my HTC Desire S
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
UV is not supported yet Oly. I haven't decide yet if it will in the future.

By the way, if you try this, do not use tiamat kernel, or you'll loose sound.

Hey, im a litle noob. This rom needs a radio?
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
Hi buddy. Welcome to the Reaper support service. We answer all sorts of questions (even though they can be easily "searched"and found, and don't need other members to sit and type out the same replies to the same questions by different users again and again), just because we're such nice people :D:D:D

To answer your query, no...this ROM does not need a new radio. As a matter of fact, the way our HTC devices are built, they never need a radio in order to flash a new ROM. The firmware that you flash, basically contains the "ROM", and the "KERNEL", not the "RADIO" (unlike Samsung, where the ROM packages contain an additional "MODEM" - radio package). On HTC, your radio stays completely separate from the system, data, cache and boot partitions which house the ROM. So just remember, you don't have to touch the radio for any future flashing you do on this phone... not even for ICS!

P.S. Unless your radio is jumping up and biting you in the a**, i would also recommend you refrain from changing it...it's a relatively less noob-friendly thing to do, with a higher probability of bricking your device if not done properly. Stay with the ROM flashing for now...

Cheers.
[HTC Desire S] icemanxpe:
hi all good day. first of all, thank you very much lowveld for this ROM, it's blazingly fast and smooth. being new to this flashing business however i was hoping someone could help with a problem of mine. i'm currently using Reaper v1.1 after creating nandroid back up of Endy 3.1. everything is very good and no issues except that video playback has a huge lag. the audio will keep going normal except the video will just freeze. same thing when i'm using the camera, the preview window will freeze after two seconds but when i click say any of the settings button or the shutter key it will take the picture just fine or bring up the settings menu, but the preview window just hangs. same thing happens when i'm using the browser and i go to watch a video on youtube or when i try to watch a video file stored locally in the sdcard. video freezes but audio keeps going normally. let me point out though that I DO NOT believe it's an issue with your ROM as i was on MIUI 1.12.30 just the other day when i first noticed the problem. i thought at first that it was the MIUI ROM but when i flashed Reaper v1.1 the same problem remains. only when i'm on Endy 3.1, camera preview window and video playback has no issues. i was on this radio 20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04, then i just flashed this one 20.48.30.0822U_3822.09.08.20 but same problem. being a noob, i'm at a total loss. could someone advise? thanks much :D

edit:

saw this post from slhaarsma on the MIUI thread, i guess he has the same problem as me:

"hmmz miui has progressed since i used it; looks great and great speed!

few problems though that i can't find any info on:

camera doesn't work here: image keeps on freezing; actual picture is fine though.

videos freeze as well (tried several videoplayers). on software rendering its better but still laggy.

I tried several miui versions (1.2.6, 12.30 and of different sources: galnet, US, NL)

no difference..

Don't think it makes a difference, but in recovery, when wiping dalvik I get the error message that it can't find sd-ext. Is sd-ext still nessecary without apps2sd?

Great work anyways, cheers!"
[HTC Desire S] Treti:
Hi Lowveld,

had the new ROM running until this morning but switched back to Endy.

For some reasons the phone app was generating 16 Mb traffic.

Maybe I ll try Reaper at a later stage again.

Some thoughts and thanks

Ok guys, finally had some time to write a proper post.

First, let me thank you all again for the warm welcome this (and my other) ROMs got. I honestly didn't expect it, as it started as a "What the hell..." project, more a proof of concept than anything else. Secondly, I'm very happy to witness the comradery between most of the users in the DS threads, particularly on my own threads. It's not only the devs that invest time, I'm always happy when I see a user go out of his way to help another user, for me that is what this is all about!

I've had lots of fun, and learned a lot in the last months, and that would not be the case if not for being pushed by all of you into being better at this.

Now for the sense-aosp flame war (actually a mild bonfire, as we are all well mannered here). I'm finding myself quite enjoying this aosp thing. It's fast, easy to modify, and you do get to make of your phone (almost) whatever you want. But don't get me wrong, in terms of functionality, for 90% of users, Sense is waaaaay better. Again, I don't want to start any wars here, just explaining my point of view.

For instance, in aosp you simply cannot get the contacts-phone-sms-mail-calendar integration you get on Sense. You can't. Period. Not even buying it, because there's nothing similar for sale. I tried most of the stuff in the market, and HTC is so far ahead on user experience on this that it's not even funny anymore. And I'm not talking about the looks, that's always subjective. I mean things like merging all accounts on unified contacts, simple things as defining busy hours on sync schedules, advanced stuff as having ALL my companys contacts available for searching from exchange inside my contacts. Then there are all the widgets (most of them useless for me, but anyway, they're there) and etc. My point is, you get a full integrated package, that you can't match with anything on the market, and it comes with your phone, for FREE.

Forgive me the rambling on this, but I see lots of Sense-bashing around these foruns, and I don't think it's quite fair. That being said, I repeat that I'm quite enjoying Reaper, and will be staying with as main ROM for the time being. But Endy is allays there waiting for me. :)

Thanks for reaching the end of the post. :P

Cheers

[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
Hy mate. Thanks a lot for the detailed review, great help as always.

Now for your points:

1. There's something really weird on your setup. "Android System" should not be using not nearly that much battery. And furthermore it's apparently keeping the phone awake at all times. If the phone never sleeps, there's nothing preventing the governor from jumping to higher frequencies if it detects cpu load.

Given the processes that are included in that "package", can you please:

a) selectively disable any account syncing other than the standard gmail/exchange that come with the phone and check if the phone sleeps. (I don't know if you installed anything else)

b) ditch the ICS theme for a while and see if the phone sleeps

I can tell you that my phone sleeps properly with no issues...

2. I'll see what I can do, but that is probably the default consumption for CM7, as I haven't touched anything related. Personally I get 10-11 mA on sleep, both on smartass and reaper governors. But I'm testdriving a new kernel.

But I'll try to lower this if I can.

3. Yeahh, I know...

--- EDIT ---

Also please try disabling tasker
[HTC Desire S] peters.:
Hi, i was using Reaper v1 and v1.1 and didn't have the device awake all the time. Try to download the betterbatterystats from xda to track the app which keeps the device awake... I also have 10-11mA drain in standby, i opened also a thread about it, but it seems CM has this consumption. Hyperion had 8-11mA.

On my phone GPS location provider didn't shut down correctly once and kept the phone awake also for the whole night...

[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
Yes, those are my settings also. Plus, if you don't touch Reaper Control settings, those are the default when managed by CM7 only.

I never quite said it, but it seems obvious I ship the rom with my own default settings I think are best, right? :)

And again, just because you can overclock, undervolt, and dance around the table, doesn't mean you have to. :P

i've searched the thread for similar issues with no joy.

great rom, super smooth. is anybody else having issues with mobile data automatically reactivating itself? i'm trying to use wifi only (so no data away from wlan) but mobile data keeps switching back on and costing me £1 in credit everyday

any help is appreciated folks
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
This may be happening when your wifi connection drops, and as per default android behaviour, your phone jumps to using mobile data (if it's left on). Normally, if mobile data is on, and also wifi is connected, the phone preferentially uses wifi, and you do not see the mobile data usage icon on the status bar. But that doesn't mean it's disabled. It will be reactivated if you lose the wifi connection.

If you do not want to use mobile data, just turn it off permanently (manually) by either using the toggles, or going to settings>wireless and networks>mobile networks> and untick mobile data option. This will disable mobile data and even when you don't have wifi, the phone will not switch to mobile data ('cause it's off)
[HTC Desire S] chrisrudolf:
you can manage this perfektly with the energy widget, that w lan automaticly disable mobile data
[HTC Desire S] theTeal:
thanks for the replies lads but i don't think i described my issue very well.

i have already manually disabled mobile data via the notification widget and the settings menu on separate occasions. it keeps reactivating by itself. i'll keep an eye on it today when i'm away from the wlan to see if that's triggering it.

this has not happened with any other rom (although i've on used 2 others previously on this particular handset)
