I have checked that I forgot to put facebook.apk in system/app, either it wasn't there or I forgot to put.

Try installing facebook from market.

If it doesn't works make it a system app with titanium backup or push it to system/app and fix permissions.

Wipe cache/dalvic cache and reboot.

It should work.

For quick settings use a widget suggested by a user few pages back.

Buttons will be fixed in next build.

Working on trackpad wake.

The correct hboot is 0.84.2000? and when i type adb logcat, all it says is "waiting for device" and it doesnt do anything after that.

Had the same problem in another ROM. The Sync fixed itself by activating the Contact-sync inside the settings of the FB App...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
Going to look after some time, have some issues like keyboard backlight, softkeys light, etc. on my head right now.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
in 4ext or any other recovery view partition info and see how much space you got left on system partition.

If it is 0 or very less, you have wrong hboot installed.

If its not, then its probably a bad download, redownload and reflash.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sgtkid12:
I have 115MB left in system. Ive downloaded this twice tho.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
I'm sorry then I can't understand whats going on since its working for me and others.

alright :/ thanks for trying

if you have trackpad wake, please make it a setting or a flashable zip because some people like me carry their dz in their pockets all the time and i dont want it to keep accidentally pushing the trackpad button and lower my battery life :P
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] crazyC:
I have two possibly stupid questions but I cannot for the life of me see how to

1. Add additional home screen panels - or are we limited to 5 with this version of sense.

and

2. How to add folders to a home screen panel.(EDIT - now got it - drag one app onto another)

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

So far the rom seems good - I had to do some work to add Facebook and Twitter to the friendstream, and I do occassionally see the odd graphical glitch - but very occassionally.

Other than that it feels quite nice and snappy.

CPU tuner is not very happy running on it although it mostly works.

There are also the known bugs - biggest being camera, (which probably stops it being a dd)

Excellent start though - will try and run it for a few days.

Trackpad wake (and sleep) would be great as others have said, but its early days.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] pepar0:
Seems the FM radio does not work either. At least for me, no sound.

(Hope everyone signed the ICS petition: http://www.change.org/petitions/htc-release-an-android-4-0-update-for-the-htc-desire-z#

to hopefully convince HTC to release ICS code for our device)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] magic_android:
wow this ROM is really really smooth, i'm very impressed but i have a completely game-breaking issue. I can't type any of the FN characters using the keyboard, which makes it impossible to type numbers and other characters without constantly switching between the software and hardware keyboards :S.

Does anyone else have this same issue?

---------- Post added at 11:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:48 AM ----------

Also, i'm getting a recurring glitch in different apps where the status bar can't be dragged all the way down to the bottom, this occurs in such a way that there is about half a centimetre or less at the bottom of the screen which is not covered by the status bar once it has been pulled down.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] evilcuber:
Yea, a known issue. The rom dosent know that there is a hardware menu button on this device. Check the other sense 4.0 from thread for a fix changing the build.prop
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] magic_android:
Ah ok, thank you. How do you go about editing the build.prop? Which directory is it in and what app should i use? Also, i've seen people posting saying to add lines of code into the build.prop, can you just add things like "qemu.hw.mainkeys=1" (fix for notification bar) anywhere in the build.prop? Or is there a specific section or something that it's meant to go into?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] theone10:
Anywhere. I used root tool box. But you can just edit the file and add the line and restart
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] evilcuber:
you can add the line anywhere in the file
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] magic_android:
Thanks to both of you for that :).
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] istredd:
Works pretty fine, I can wait for camera :P

But I experienced pretty serious issue, which I had with other ICS ROMs too: a reboot. While my phone is protected with PIN code after reboot I can't receive any calls. For now I removed PIN, maybe next versions won't reboot.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Agyar:
BT can be quirky on this one...

Try turning it on and restart your device and then see if you see anything. It usually works until it BT is stopped and started again. Then it can't connect to anything...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] crazyC:
Thanks, but I have reverted to Energy for the moment - I will probably await a suitable update before trying again. I cant really run for long without a dd on my phone as I need it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
Guys this time I want to base the new update on official RUU and not on some port but the download link:

http://www.filefactory.com/file/c42...31U_3831.15.00.19_M_release_251449_signed.exe

always says all free download slots are taken.

Can any of you download it and host it at some mirror please.

Thanks in advance.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] crazyC:
Will try - finally got a slot - its not fast though.

If no one else beats me too it, I will try and upload it to either netload or dropbox and PM you a link.

Am at work though - not sure how long it will take or if the system or IT guys will get annoyed.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] chocohagelslagje:
Will try it too :)

Edit: Wow that's an annoying website, you think you can download after waiting and than again you get 'all free slots are full' grr:mad:

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
this is the new ruu released for htc primo which i'm trying to port.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mesaj:
I was testing this ROM and my opinion is its very fast and responsive, unlike Sense 3.5/3.6. I've noticed that there are some bugs like BeatsAudio isn't working with any settings, equalizer too, had some wifi problems, but after reflashing it works good.

HTC should also give us update, DZ is viable handling it easiely.

Keep the good work, you are close to making it fully working, good luck m8.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] coldsun15:
...isnt this supposed to be a HTC One V port?? cause the htc primo is a different phone, as far as i know (i might have misunderstood though)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
someone posted back that volume+ works, just look for it in this thread or Ice Sensewich thread.

Htc Primo is code name for HTC one V.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bradley_e_smith:
Fyi, virtuous has this rom out, and the menu key doesn't work on the rosie launcher.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] magic_android:
The reason HTC will not give our phones an update to ICS is because they'd aim to update our phones to Sense 3.6.

I can't remember where i saw it but a few weeks ago i saw a statement from HTC saying that the reason that phones like the Desire HD (and others receiving ICS OTA) are being updated to Sense 3.6 is that HTC wants to keep the user experience consistent as far as Sense and its features go. Hence, if HTC were to update our phones to ICS, they'd give us an update to Sense 3.6

Now, most people on these forums would know that our phones can't really successfully run Sense 3.* ROMs (without any problems) and that's the reason why our phones haven't received an update to Sense 3.*. So that makes it even more unlikely for us to receive an official update to ICS Sense 3.6 considering that it would probably be more difficult for our phones to handle.

The other issue is that no phone prior to the One series will receive Sense 4 as an OTA update because the new One phones use some new imaging chip that goes hand in hand with HTC's new imagesense technology. So obviously, HTC is not going to try and implement this new technology on older phones, which is why (official) Sense 4 will be limited to the new One lineup of phones.

Hopefully, this post should clear up a lot of things for people.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] salimbaba:
I think sms app is slower beyond use. Takes ages loading SMS list and opening an SMS
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] steviewevie:
You might be right. But then again, current Sense 3.6 ROMs are based on various pieces put together by the devs, and we don't have official drivers etc for our phone for some bits. So I'm not sure we have a fair comparison yet. There are also some non-Sense-based ICS ROMs that don't seem to run that great, but that doesn't necessarily mean that ICS is too much for our phones.

At the end of the day, as has been said many times before, it doesn't matter *that* much if we can an official ICS or not, because the devs will still find a way (and are already doing so). But, still, it would be nice (especially for those who like to stick with a stock ROM).

Thanks for this rom, have been looking for a solid ICS daily driver for a while, i know dev's don'y like being asked but any ETA on when the next update will be out? Keep up the good work!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
The thing is since virtuous primadona is out so I've been delaying the build and concentrating on my MIUI rom and AOSP rom and I also have some school work to do so due to lack of time and at the sametime due to a good release by virtuous team I'm delaying the update to the rom.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Superfr34k:
For me, Primadonna is much slower than ur or Taz´ build. Dont know why, but yours are just better imo ^^

While the DZ was released with Sense, the G2 was released with (basically) stock Android.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] magic_android:
Yes, but for G2 users it's up to T-Mobile to make an update. I was talking about Desire Z users. People on these forums are looking for an update from HTC for the Desire Z, which would mean an update with Sense. That's not to say that an ICS update from T-Mo isn't wanted, i'm just trying to say that they're separate entities.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] evilcuber:

Is the autobrightness fixed? The values are pretty low on b1.

Ad-Hoc network

I have a very specific question but will not have the means to even try and test it for a few days.

Can anyone running this (the new one) check if it allows you to connect to ad-hoc wifi networks.

I want to use an old WM phone to create a wifi hotspot so my Desire Z can then access the net through the WM phone. I could not get this to work under Gingerbread as even with some of the patches I could not get it to connect to an ad-hoc network.

Cheers

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
Bluetooth depends on the bluetooth chipset with which your phone is shipped. Our phone is shipped with 2.1 + EDR, so it can't have Bluetooth 4.0.

It's not a software which can be updated.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ihateusernames:
I had problems with minus as well. Finally got it from my home pc last night.

I am really pleased with this rom. Everybody talks about how ics and sense4.0 are so fast. I thought so too. I have been running some sort of ics since it dropped but I had been getting pretty irritated with my experience lately on all the ics stuff. I started noticing the scrolling lag, general slowness of the UI(other than the home screen), how slow apps loaded.. I decided to fresh install the latest cm7 and wow, what a difference. That was smoother than I remembered. Everything was amazing.

But then I got bored with the old and needed another fix of the new. Since there havent been any big updates to anything, I checked out this rom. The change log showed most of my issues with 4.0 were fixed so gave it a try. Am I glad I did. This is much smoother and much more responsive then the previous 4.0 roms I had tried. The keyboard lights work(? Doesnt though), wifi at work is working, apps open quicker. Over all, a good improvement.

Obviously, still isnt as quick as cm7 but you made a good step forward measured from my experience. I will be keeping an eye on your work.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] PazzoPazzini:
beta 2 is very good! you've done a really good job. the only issue is the light of the keyboard that is always off and i can't change that. if someone has a solution please tell me. oh i also noticed a problem with the question mark key on the keyboard

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] yozgatg:
wow

I have been using beta 2 since yesterday, and this is the first time I try out a Sense 4A rom. HTC seems to have got their act together after the sense 3.0/3.5/3.6 fiasco. It's much cleaner and smoother.

As for the ROM itself, it works great except for the camera and some keyboard issues:

- Keyboard light doesn't turn on at all

- If u slide out the keyboard, rotation is not fixed (e.g. with the keyboard out, phone will still rotate to portrait if u hold it that way)

GPS works great! With andromadus, i would lose my signal every 2 minutes, but I tried it out yesterday on a one hour drive and it worked flawlessly.

About the camera, would it be possible to use the AOSP camera and andromadus libs on this rom?

* also for some reason, market updates to play store on boot, but it reverts back to the old market after a reboot
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] PazzoPazzini:
i've also noticed that sometimes when the phone is loked it seems to loose the wifi signal.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] evilcuber:
