[Desire HD Android Development] dg170775:
Consolidated Bugs, Resolution & Features Requested

Ok, finally, after reading through almost 150+ pages, and picking up all reported bugs, resolutions, fixes and feature requests, here's my compilation.

Bugs:

1. Aroma Installer issues:Status - fixed in forthcoming update Several users have had issues while flashing the ROM through the AROMA installer. But honestly, majority of their miseries are attributed to lack of reading through the thread. So, I've summarised the clear steps any user needs to follow, to flash v3 of the Blackout ROM (assuming that you already have root).

a) Download and copy the ZIP file, to your SD card

b) Boot into Recovery (I used CWM, 4EXT works too) and install ZIP from SD Card, this invokes the AROMA Installer.

c) Simply follow the steps as guided, keeping in mind 2 critical options. When the Installer asks for ‘Wipe’, select ‘Yes’, and towards the end, the AROMA Installer will ask to reboot, select ‘No’, and reboot through recovery.

d) And you have the best ICS Sense ROM.

2. WIFI Hotspot: On selecting this option, Hotspot is enabled, but no connections are allowed. Secondly, once WIFI Hotspot is selected, and removed, the WIFI option gets disabled. Only a reboot helps.

3. USB Tethering: Few users have reported issues here, but, I haven’t tried. DEVs to confirm, if this is a bug.

4. Blackout Tweaks: Status - fixed in forthcoming update option does not work from the Quick settings, but works from the App. Drawer.

5. Long SMS Messages longer than 160 characters do not get sent.

6. FM Radio does not work with headsets.

7. MMS: Several users have reported MMS issues, but again, this appears to be more of a radio issue, as I’m able to send/receive MMS messages. Few other users have also had success.

8. Lag: Status - fixed in forthcoming update Few users have reported Lag, but fixes have worked, like going to Blackout Tweaks in app drawer > Sense > Smooth Rosie and select Ultra Smooth. Then go to Daemon Controller > CPUFreq > and select the smartassv2 Governor. Lastly, Daemon Controller seems to get stuck at low clocks, so, can remove OC Daemon & install setCPU to achieve the same.

9. HD 720p: recording lags and playback issues have been reported quite a few times. Personally, both recording and playback worked absolutely fine, except that the recorded file introduced a lot of static noise in the video.

10. Weather: Weather Animations do not work with Sound, in Demo

11. VPN does not work, this was reported, but the DEVS to confirm status

12. Phone Identity: Status - fixed in forthcoming update Phones get reported as ‘Incredible S’ in apps.

13. Beats: Status - fixed in forthcoming update audio missing in the Desire HD

14. General Sound: Users have reported that the sound is quite low in the ROM, for notifications.

15. Headset issues

16. OC Daemon: Refer #8 issues where max OC gets stuck at low values

17. Network: Search network options returns no networks even through the signal is full.

18. Auto brightness setting needs to be tweaked a little as gets quite dim at times.

19. BT: Issues where on restart the phone loses the pairing data.

Nice to have features:

1. Add Sense / No Sense option in AROMA Installer (Low Priority, there are AOSP ROMs for Non Sense experience)

2. OTA updates for future ROMs - WIP

3. Sense 4.0 / 4.1 Support - WIP

4. More tweaks in the Blackout Tweaks app - WIP

5. Reorganizing / disabling quick settings - WIP

DEVs, would like to hear your thoughts on adding the above consolidation to the OP. I believe that this would enable you guys and folks joining in, to maintain & understand the thread better.

I must add that since page 240 or so, not a single bug was reported, instead, repetitive bug reports, and resolutions were requested. I hope that such occurances will reduce by the above.

Lastly, I would request everyone reading to understand that the DEVs have acknowledged most of the bugs summarized above, and responded back, that they'd be fixed in the forthcoming update. So, please bear with them, and show patience, as the coming update should give you a near 100% working ICS ROM, with Sense.
