I've been a diehard miui lover for a long time but have been on this rom since 4.1. Fantastic p progress by all devs involved. I love all the features that are in the rom by default and I have,like twisted said, found space by not needing some apps anymore.

I do have inner request which is a feature miui had and I for one used a lot. It is the flashlight that you use from the lockscreen by pressing the "homebutton."

I know there is an option for flashlight via the powerbutton but I find it a less convinient to have it there.
[Desire HD Android Development] Chezbel:
I didn't see very much difference with that.

I did experiment with the fling setting in build.prop, changing it from 4000 to 12000 was better, but it probably requires more time to use it to say for sure.

Regarding the previous issue of accidentally selecting something while scrolling. It's definitely better than before, but while spending more time with this today I see that it does still happen.

In general taps and presses should not be recognized if there is more than a certain amount of finger motion in the X or Y directions. If you test with BlackICE (should be the same in any CM7 based ROM) you can see that to change a checkbox setting the finger has to be pretty motionless in the X and Y directions. You either need to make a tap or a press, but it is very difficult to do with a fling or sliding motion (even then it is likely that your finger actually did tap the screen surface).

If you try this on ICS it is much easier for a sliding motion in the X or Y directions to change the checkbox. I think there is still a piece of code for ICS that needs to be modified related to deciding if a tap or press occured.

@Lord

It's possible to add an option to switch off data mobile during quiet hours?
[Desire HD Android Development] kush4u123:
I second ^^^^^

Also, the flashlight option in the notification pull down closes very fast at screen timout and the torch app brightness is less than that of the notification toggle switch.

Plus, if i enable the high-brightness option, the DHD switches off in about 2 seconds.

Please give us the homebutton press flashlight :o

[Desire HD Android Development] cupid412:
guys, please help, i'm suffering from serious battery drain problem with 6.1 ICS's rom. Screenshot's in the attachment:

16 hours of idle, 70% of battery.

My setting:

-Wifi off, data off

-CPU overclocked to max 1536MHz, min 768MHz *

-DPI from 240 -> 190

-Light levels increase slightly (5 to 10 each level)

-Opened Start-up Tweaks once and nothing changed

* means I've already enabled it in previous roms and the battery was last for more than 2 days of idle.

I've flashed newest BFS kernel in #2 but it isn't helped at all.
[Desire HD Android Development] MarcVanWake:
first of all i want to thank you LC and all devs for making such a great progress possible!

already some users mentioned the freezing gmail app:

sometimes when i open a newly arrived email in gmail the app freezes in the loading (when normal this is hard to see because it's gone so fast) screen and nothing happens... i have to kill the task manually and restart gmail. then it works completely normal. i even can't reproduce the bug because it happens very randomly but it's always solved with killing/restarting the app. have this issue since a few versions (i think since 5.x, but not sure), never gave it that much attention. of course i did a full wipe and no restoring from any backup :)

to point out: no FC, just freezing the app. of course i've searched the thread but couldn't find a solution. is there one? if i'm just blind, i'm very sorry :o

another issue is completely random reboots. but i think that's already well known. but have to point out that they've got much better (fewer) since 6.1!

thanks again LC for your great work!
[Desire HD Android Development] Chezbel:
I've had this happen occassionally when I'm flashing a lot, even after flashing back to something that was known to work well before. Surprisingly a simple reboot often helps.
[Desire HD Android Development] JaseLegenda:
That is what the cause is. Set the minimum CPU to 122/230 MHz

And check do you have network coverage cause in my case the worst thing for battery is when I'm in places whit low or no connection

Just wanted to point out that some of the links in the second *addon* post are broken, for example the "HTC Keyboards" link. It actually has the ellipsis "..." in the url instead of just having that in the link text. Probably got copied and pasted over at some point instead of the actual links.

It is happening to me too, even after full wiping. It broke on 5.0 more our less i think

Sent from my resurrected DHD
[Desire HD Android Development] Chezbel:
This is not too surprising since a lot of code that was in

frameworks/base/libs/ui/ (CM7)

is now in

frameworks/base/services/input/ (ICS)

and there are pretty major differences. Looks like it requires a bit more than simple file compares to see what is changed or missing, but if it was that easy it would have been done already :)
[Desire HD Android Development] damac:
I was having serious battery drain too (in idle) with very similar settings as yours. It didn't show up in battery stats as any particular app. This was when I had flashed without full wipe and just updated from previous rom (5.5).

Did a full wipe and used titanium to restore apps with data (no system apps or data obviously). That fixed it and Rom became surprisingly fast too :)
[Desire HD Android Development] joerolando2701:
As far as the taps registering as holds it is better now in 6.2 but still occasionally there though much much better
[Desire HD Android Development] Ratix0:
I would have to comment, coming from 5.0 to 6.1, I did a full wipe and all, however from my usage experience, I am experiencing pretty high battery drain compared to when it was 5.0. Also the phone tends to heat up occasionally on use. But its evident on how the battery life does not last as long as when I was on 5.0 on similar usage...

Updated apns-conf.xml

HTC Inspire ATT Customers,

Please try the attached apns-conf.xml and let me know if it changes the behavior of your MMS send/recieve (i.e. if you could send but not recieve did that change, or if you could recieve but not send did that change, or if MMS always worked for you is it now broken). make sure you have WiFi turned off and mobile data turned on.

As always make a backup of your existing apns-conf.xml first.

download attached file and install:

VIA adb from your PC: extract apns-conf.xml from zip file

1. adb remount

2. adb push apns-conf.xml /system/etc/apns-conf.xml

3. go to menu/system settings/wireless networks/ more.../mobile networks

4. go to access point names

5. delete existing APNs

6. choose menu/restore defaults

VIA download on your device: extract apns-conf.xml from zip file

1. copy apns-conf.xml from /system/etc to a backup location on your sdcard

2. copy downloaded apns-conf.xml to /system/etc

3. follow steps 3 thru 6 from above

Also verify that you still can connect to the market and the internet (this should at the very least improve connection stability depending on your geographical location).

To be honest I dont think it would help. People seem to forget that this is not a rom forum but a DEVELOPMENT forum. They come here for all the wrong reasons.

[Desire HD Android Development] TheBrilliantMistake:
The problem is... people are coming to a dev forum, taking a ROM, discovering issues and then expecting a support forum. The forum is for devs (in theory).

To make matters worse, folks don't even read the guides and known issues lists.

Trying to keep a forum like this 'clean' is futile though :-( It's like offering free beer forever and asking people to be 'sensible'.... ain't gonna happen!
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Yeah, considering I don't care for beer I guess it really would be the same. Providing it to others and laughing at how they act while drunks try to control other drunks and the guys handing it out just throw it in the crowd and hope for the best. Good analogy ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] cupid412:
I confirmed that full wipe and re-install rom should fix that battery drain issue.

I did it yesterday, before went to sleep and it cost about 5% of battery for nearly 6 hours of idle (wifi, data off).

Only one small difference is I didn't open the Start-up Tweaks setting this time, everything else is the same.

Flash the agps script from the forum (Inspire) and (DHD). It fixes the fix issue.
[Desire HD Android Development] tomburnes:
Recently when taking pictures the camera makes really loud snapping noises that make the whole phone vibrate. The preview of the picture is fuzzy, and then it corrupts the picture similarly to how this ROM used to.

I full wiped, flashed this ROM, then flashed InspireMod. Corrupted file included. I can do a logcat if necessary. I have put all the settings back to their original values (I had enabled infinite zoom).

Edit: I force closed it, cleared app data, then hit "restore to defaults" and now no corruption, files have become clearer, and no ridiculous shutter bang.

BFS - CFS and battery drain...

Since I use ICS, I care about battery drain, because I thing that it is one of the major point in the user experience.

I must say that I did the same with my previous BlackIce ROM, and that the result was brilliant (less than 0.5%/h in standby).

But now with ICS, the results were quite bad especially with the early versions (with some exceptions): the standby current was regularly around 50mA !!.

Fortunately, this improved progressively from versions to versions, to reach the 2mA to 5mA similar to what I had with BlackIce, BUT the problem I had was that the good results didn't persist after +/- 10 hours: more and more peaks resulting in a battery drain of ~1%/h or more. And this was highly reproducible even if sometime one or two reboots calm down the battery drain back to a normal 0.5%/H for some ~10hours again.

So, by curiosity (and following statements from satisfied users), I flashed the last BFS kernel (v8.9b8) on the last ROM (v6.2test4 where I also experienced the standby current increase after few hours with the included default CFS kernel): and surprise: the low battery drain in standby persists up to now for more than 24h!!

Of course, this needs some more observations (24h is very short) but it is extremely encouraging!!

But, to be clear, I don't thing the this good result is in any way linked to the BFS technic itself, but rather to a difference somewhere in the implementation of this particular kernel.

For the rest, FYI, I get roughly the same results in benchmarks between CFS and BFS (rr_interval=2 [ms] (=default value)).

Have a nice day.

PS: of course, I always full wipe !!
[Desire HD Android Development] floepie:
If I may be so bold, I'd request that the task switcher be moved to the 'search' key as it is on the 4.0 sense ROMs instead of the long press of the home button. It's very handy and fast!

In my opinion, search doesn't need to be so fast, as you can use the widget or a shortcut.
[Desire HD Android Development] RED_:
Not a bad idea, although from what I gather most people have the widget disabled so searching for them would mean going into the app drawer which almost defeats the purpose. Tbh i'd probably just leave it where it is, even though I have the widget on my homescreen my instinct tells me to press the search button. Really though I've never used the search button.
[Desire HD Android Development] floepie:
Just trying out the Sense 4.0 ROM the other day, it really makes a difference. I actually found myself hitting that search button to bring up the task manager more often, flipping between the recent apps.

Perhaps a long press could bring up search instead?
[Desire HD Android Development] RED_:
Well that brings up the speech stuff at the moment so you'd have to find another place to put that.

[Desire HD Android Development] mbudden:
I would check what you have running in the background etc. I have found that I always have a 3mA draw when screen is off. Have you made sure that wifi turns off when your screen goes off? Also, like I said, check what programs are running in the background and see if they're doing any kind of syncing back to the server. I found that was one of my issues. Evernote, Facebook etc were all trying to grab data every hour.
[Desire HD Android Development] pecora:
i never have less 5mA drain with screen off, and for me i don't have battery drain. I would know how can you have 3mA, also for me non background sync, no wifi, only data and gps on. I had 3mA when i used RCmix 4 with gingerbread, with ICS ever 5mA. Maybe it depend on device?
[Desire HD Android Development] alienmind:
it depends mostly on signal level

[Desire HD Android Development] mbudden:
Correct. I use EDGE instead of 3G since I'm always around wifi. I always have full bars with EDGE so I don't have a problem of 3G taking a toll on my device especially with such a small battery this phone has.
[Desire HD Android Development] floepie:
If you want to save power, don't have your wifi turn itself off. 3G data requires more power than wifi does.
