It's a port of HTC_Phone rom from desire HD Section with device specific changes made by me.

I'm going to introduce mods soon to the rom, but first I wanted to introduce a stable build to the users.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Puffballofdoom:
Not to be rude as well, but this one seems to have a working SD mount, something I found not workig on yours :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
Will be fixed soon, was getting error recompiling apks after making changes.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xT4Z1N4TRx:
Not to be rude, but isn't it fixed with an app, so its not actually properly fixed? ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] evilcuber:
any expected eta for next release :P? i want to switch over to this one from sense 3.5 one the backlight keyboard is working :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
FYI

I tried to incorporate the aderno libs released by Qualcomm but it bugged the UI and graphical glitches started appearing with random reboots.

Its 4 am here in India and am going to bed now, have to leave for school tomorrow at 8:30 am. Will address your queries tomorrow.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
I can't say for sure but I know what changes I need to make, it just a matter of time when I could be able to recompile the apks properly after making changes.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xT4Z1N4TRx:
Any idea how to fix the keyboard light mate? I don't even think andromadus could haha, 4am bloody hell you're dedicated!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] KyraOfFire:
@ajhavery: awesome! I am downloading it and will try right after I backup my phone :-)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
I need to apply my own mods so I started my own thread, don't expect any changes from the first build. And there is no need for an argument here I think.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xT4Z1N4TRx:
We aren't arguing, (atleast I wasn't haha) keep up the work mate
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Imitate:
Downloading now.

Looks quite good, hopefully it's not as buggy as the others.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
Trackpad wake doesn't works everytime,looking into it. For the time being flash trackpad wake patch by sandman79 from sensewich thread.

Special characters in HW keyboard works, did you flashed the keyboard patch from mods and addons in 2nd post??

Look at the install instructions given in the first post.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xT4Z1N4TRx:
i just went through the zip, and it seems like its just virtuous primadonna, with edited build.prop and updater-script, and lyapota's mega pack installed over it... is this true?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] zibiss:
After flashing Keymap Fix - HW Keyboard OK :)

TPWake_Sensewichb4 by Sandmann79 on this ROM - KO :(
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
Its a port of proxuser port with virtuous kernel and selected elements of lyapota megapack and a few mods specific for desire Z.

I've mentioned it in first post if you care to go through it before asking.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xT4Z1N4TRx:
OK just checking:-)

Can I flash using g2 hboot?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] evilcuber:
Since it is a lightweight rom its possible but i wouldnt risk it. Just flash dz hboot to be safe ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rmcsc:
Gah. Stupid me commented on wrong ROM thread.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] XxhTcG2uSERxX:
I dnt want to switch h boots

Some issue found on Beta 2

There are some issue I found on Beta2:

1. Chinese input method doesn't work like Ice Cream Sensewich.SW Chinese keyboard displays but it cannot type any word.

2. HW Key "?" also doesn't work for my HTC Desire Z (ASIA - Taiwan)

3. When I swipe on trackpad, the cursor shows up but trackpad click doesn't work.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] iDAREK:
nice work, cannot wait for rom without "not working" things. thnx

Long press on hardware keyboard has stopped working

Earlier this morning, long presses on my hardware keyboard simply stopped working. I have detailed it here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=24913406

Other than that, when they were working, a truly kick-ass rom! =)

If you could find a way to make the haptic feedback intensity variable (I want it to buzz longer when I push the capacitive buttons), it would make me even happier =)

Edit: This is with beta2. I have applied the keymap fix. I even tried re-applying it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cjward23:
Try it, you have nothing to lose. Just do a nandroid I keep meaning to find out if sense 4A Will fit on the g2 hboot. I think it might but I can't be arsed to switch hboots :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
Did you flashed keyboard fix from 2nd post??

Please read the install instruction given in the first post.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] isuperpc:
Yes, I did.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jevring:
I tried reflashing just the rom, followed by the rom and the keymap, but that didn't help. Long press on the keys still doesn't work. I'd prefer not to superwipe the thing, as I don't want to have to re-do the setup of the entire system.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] misterextreme:
It took me about 5 hours to download this rom.

Will try it in a moment but first I will upload this rom to provide a faster download mirror.

Link will follow in a minute.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lunoma:
I really wish stupid Qualcomm would release the modules for the camera! There are so many amazing Sense ICS roms that just fall short due to the camera! Great job though! :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jevring:
It turns out the SYM key functionality is now accessible via FN+SPACE. Does this mean that I have a certain keymap loaded?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
It seems keymap for Chinese is buggy, i'll try to fix it in next update.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] isuperpc:
Thank you!

And I find that your ROM is smoother than sensewich when I play games.:)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xxqbnxx:
Giving this a run so far amazingly smooth
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jevring:
I'm not using the Chinese keymap, though. I'm using what I assume is the -wwe keymap, since my system language is set to "English (Swedish)". Also, it used to work perfectly. Now it doesn't even detect long presses, no matter what setting I have. I'm looking at logcat, and it'll detect all other keypressed, but long keypresses only show up as normal keypresses. I don't know if there's supposed to be something more in logcat for long keypresses, but it at least looks just like short keypresses.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
As far as I know, there is no function assigned to long press on hardware keyboard. I've tried gb cyanogenmod, gb sense rom and all, none of them seems to have this functionality, so I assume it is supposed to be so.

To use the special characters on hardware keyboard, press the function key.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jevring:
That seems strange, as I recall (though I could be wrong) using Swedish letters (åäö) from this rom earlier, which are only accessible via long press on the (physical) keyboard. Obviously it exists in the stock gb rom, and I'm 99.99% sure I had it after just flashing this rom.

If it turns out that I'm an idiot, which is possible, and it has never worked, it *should* be possible to get it to work, right? It's not like ICS simply threw out support for physical keyboards, right?

Edit: This is especially important, since accented characters simply are not possible to produce without the long press on the keyboard. If it never worked, it makes me wonder what the point of the german keymap is, since german also contains accented characters. I though that was the whole point...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jevring:
Feature Request

I don't know how easy it is, and I've heard that it might require kernel modification, but would it be possible to make the haptic feedback intensity configurable? The vibration is much to short for my taste currently. This is not for the keyboard, this is for all the other haptic feedback, like using the capacitive buttons.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bogdan5844:
On Android Revolution HD, I can confirm that long-pressing A on the hardware keyboard, for example, gives a bunch of accented variations (ă,â,..) same with other letters (d,s,t,o,etc)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jevring:
That's a gingerbread rom though, right? Or is this the ICS version?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bogdan5844:
Gingerbread, yes.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
I'll try to fix this then.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] johrie:
Long press on Andromadus also works on physical keyboard.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jevring:
Do you think taking the keychar and keylayout files from Andromadus and putting them into this rom would fix that, or are there other things in play? Looking at the files I just mentioned, there is never anything about accented characters, so I don't think this is actually something that you can map. I think it needs to be supported "deeper" in the OS, somehow.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] zofox:
How can I make the HTC hub app working? Because it always says tap here to updates data, but nothing changes...

Also how can I get more widgets? For example analog clock??

And what about the track pad wake? :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jevring:
I'm using this rom, and I'm loving it. I was a bit annoyed at not having Swedish keys available, since long press doesn't work, so I solved the problem. If you want my keymaps, please check this: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=25013313&postcount=8
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] evilcuber:
WHOAAA i hope it works :S. Will it work on primadonna?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
Test and reply quick, I'm waiting for some testers.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Mnementh666:
Alright you smooth talker, you talked me into it. ;)

Clean flash, booted, didn't even sign in. Just completed boot, copied files to system/app and /lib... rebooted to recovery, fixed permissions, booted back up, got black screen on cam app. Check perms, saw r-- rw- rw- (i think, running on memory).
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
Try replacing the libs too from this post. It is not flashable. Extract the files, place them in correct directory structure and set permission: rw-r--r--

and reboot.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jevring:
Occasionally the physical keyboard will stop producing characters and will instead interpret any keypress as a shortcut to something. Like pressing "m" gets me to google maps. Any idea why this is, and how I can prevent it? Or how I can stop it once it has started?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] johrie:
Long press search button on the keyboard helps on andromadus.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
A reboot fixes it for me.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] almostthere:
Trying now...will let you know in same post as an EDIT

EDIT: Nope, no go there. Still black screen with icons for camera and camcorder
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] evilcuber:
I believe that it has already been tested in another thread and it doesn't work
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
Fixing camera is very difficult without a different kernel. I'll work on it after my exams.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] evilcuber:
I know, I hope u will find a way to fix it :D I just wanted to tell him so he dosent have to take time to test it :S
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] SteveRiley:
After trying the non-Sense ICS ROMs and not finding them smooth enough, I installed this one a few days ago. I'm very impressed.

Just yesterday I began exoperiencing random lockups. I had enabled 2D acceleration. When I disabled this, the lockups stopped.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jevring:
What OC control app should I use for this ROM? I need to control the governor (among other things). Is there a "correct" one to use, are there ones that don't work, is there one included (couldn't find anything), etc.?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
Use daemon controller if its not there by default. You can download it from desire hd forums.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jevring:
Thanks, I'll try that!

---------- Post added at 04:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:15 PM ----------

I can't seem to find it. Searching finds way too much, and it's mostly other roms. Got a link?

is there any way to copy the drivers / lib files from Andromadus to get USB tethering to work?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
I guess this won't work since it's an AOSP rom. You have to wait until DHD Kernel sources are out.

Has the beta been removed? Server says file not found
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
It's there on minus, though lightupload mirror is deleted.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jevring:
No More Beats!

This might seem weird, but can we get rid of the "beats" integration?

It's wreaking havoc with PowerAMP (and potentially other music players as well) when I want to use headphones.

Android detects my headphones immediately, but the beats stuff won't start until I unplug and replug things, or it just takes an obscenely long time. Even when beats is up and running, poweramp will play music without sound, or it will just come through the external speakers, or it will simply not play. Occasionally it refuses to even let me push play/pause, or it will delay the changes for a very long time.

While this could be an issue with poweramp, it's more likely that it's an issue with beats, as I used the same version of poweramp before and after flashing this rom.

It's like the music player has to wait for beats to get out of bed, but beats is cranky, and sometimes refuses to get out of bed, and sometimes shouts at you to go away because it wants to sleep some more. Beats is a petulant child, and should be put down. Especially since it doesn't actually contribute...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
Beats is quite an innovation by htc and i love it a lot. It is by default selected coz that's how htc meant it to be.

You may try deleting beats file but it mayt cause audio problems.

Also since it's a request only by you i can't implement it in the rom, though I won't push an update without a working camera. SO you guys might have to wait a little.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] armorized:
Is this ROM still being developed on?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bogdan5844:
Apparently not. Seems that SenseWich and Gen.Y are the Sense 4A ROMs to go for the Vision. And the new one that came up yesterday.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
Gen.Y is exact the way i would develop a rom so I see no need to bake a same rom. So I would recommend you to go for them.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] KyraOfFire:
I am stuck at the HTC one screen. Is there anything I should do before installing this ROM?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] evilcuber:
-wipe data and cache

-have dz hboot installed
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Stargazer418:
I just finished flashing this and it is FAST! I am honestly amazed that an ICS-based Sense is so much faster than any of HTC's Gingerbread offerings. I'm still not a huge fan of Sense, but it is many times better than previous versions.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] KyraOfFire:
Can I please have a quick question? According to this guide

http://www.virtuousrom.com/2011/06/t-mobile-g2-users-migrating-to-desirez.html

I would understand that nandroid backups from past G2 Eng HBoot and non-SENSE ROM will work just fine?

Thanks

edit: got the IceZSense beta 1 ROM running. It stucks in the splash creen but after I reboot again via adb it runs. Thanks a tons.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kapiec:
How is it possible that sense 4 doesnt have sense NEWS widget and there is no evernote integation ? :O
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] evilcuber:

You can always push the .apk for it into the rom, and i think it will work

What was HTC thinking when they removed the lock screen customization? Or am I misunderstood.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jspina:
Did anyone get the 25 GB free in dropbox on this rom? I wasnt able to in xT4zin4trx's. I am happy to see another sense 4 rom!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Explosive:
I believe the versions of Sense4.0 that are out are the lite versions of sense. The full version of sense has all apps, widgets, backgrounds, and lockscreens everyone is accustomed to. =)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
The complete sense 4.0 has lockscreen customization. Since sense 4.0A was designed for 512 mb ram, many things are stripped down to make it fast.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] =JKT=:
Personally, I'm grateful for a sense that is tailored to our hw specs. In general, features are nice, but you can add missing features with apps in most cases. May as well have most things stripped off so you can add the ones you like without the ones you don't like eating up all your ram. =)

That being said, the lockscreen shortcuts match you dock shortcuts, so it's still kind of customizable...

I used widgetsoid to replace the quick settings tab that is missing too.

That was really the only thing I missed.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ChristianFS1:
can i flash this on top of xT4Z1N4TRx/taz's build without wiping ? :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Puffballofdoom:
Ah I didn't knew that! But I like that, it's so incredibly smooth right now!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
Its better to take a backup of your apps with titanium backup and do a full wipe, it doesn't takes long and will give you minimum errors.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Chrusb:
How about the screen rotation? Does this one also rotate when the keyboard is expanded?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
Autorotation is fixed, no need to open the keyboard for autorotation to work.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Chrusb:
Mmh, I actually mean that on the rom from Taz when you had the keyboard open and turned your device the screen would still rotate, as in not being fixed landscape view.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
Try the rom and see for yourself.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Chrusb:
Too bad, this has the same problem.

Also the FN key isn't working on my keyboard and I have to hold the shift buttons (this might be intended)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] whpsnp:
This ROM looks really promising - super smooth!

When the camera is working at some point I could see myself using it as a dd.

Sense wasn't near as bad as I feared, I actually quite liked it. If anything the increased Dropbox storage alone makes it worth giving it a go. I'm now at 31.5 GB ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] masterismos:
i had an account before get sense 4 rom. when i login to dropbox i get an email how to get my 23 gb storage i follow all steps and i get nothing now i have only 5.5gb. :mad:

I can't use this sense 4 from either :( it won't boot, just like the other one didn't.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
Do you have desire Z Hboot?? If not then look at this guide and then try reflashing the rom.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sgtkid12:
Yes i do have it. I full wiped data and caches. But nothing works :(
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
Flash this before flashing the rom.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sgtkid12:
Do I download the g2 super wipe 4ext? And if that's it. I'll let you known in a bit what happens
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] uvt_novice:
Yep, if you have Desire Z HBOOT for sure, then he wanted you to try to wipe/format all phone's partitions.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sgtkid12:
I installed the thing he said. And i didnt work. :( i know i have the desire z Hboot. But would it hurt if i installed it again on my phone?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] masterismos:
no it not hurt anything(not 100% sure) flash latest radio, the dz hboot v84.xxx wipe everything exept sd, flash superwipeg2+ and install your rom. if doesnt still boot i dont thing is something more that you can do. maybe is kernel problem but when other users havent boot problems i dont know.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sgtkid12:
I think the problem is the boot.img but I'm not sure
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] masterismos:
boot.img is the kernel?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
You need to provide a logcat for any further help.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sgtkid12:
i cant cause it wont boot.

---------- Post added at 03:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:19 PM ----------

im not sure. but are you using the stock kernel from this rom? or a different one?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
Type "adb logcat" in cmd window when the white HTC splash screen appears.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sgtkid12:
Alright. ill let you know what happens
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ilea94:
All in all really smooth and nice Rom.

Got a few questions.

1: Softkey buttons (like Home,Search) are really weak..Is there a way to change it ?

2: Can´t add Facebook in Freindstream or sync with Facebook.

3: Isn´t there a way to get quick acces to Wlan etc. like in sense 3.5 ?

4: Trackpad Wake would also be nice .

Really appreciate your work :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] nickeedoo:
First of all, this rom is INCREDIBLY smooth. It runs even faster than gingerbread did! Once the obvious things get sorted out, this will probably be my DD.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
Follow this order:

Ensure you have correct hboot installed.

flash superwipeg2+ext4

flash rom

adb logcat when you see splash screen.
