D/L'ed the latest alpha6 build, but before flashing just a few question (if someone got some info about these...) - I've read the OP but don't really know what are the "main" issues/problems and features :

- How is battery life since the "wake lock" is fixed in typical usage?

- Is azerty keyboard available? (All languages/locales are OK?)

- All apps are in their AOSP version: camera, music & so on...? (I like the stock HTC keyboard with "swype" function)

- EDIT : Skip Track with volume buttons available?

Hope to see the OneS' kernel sources soon... Governors/Kernels/Voltages optimizations over the CM9 AOSP will rock for sure!

Thanks for all the job done Guys
[HTC One S] The Jones:
Battery is pretty decent IMHO. All the apps are AOSP and I dont know if it is possible to have the HTC keyboard or not.

It's a good ROM if you are looking for an AOSP ROM. Once the sources come - if they ever do! - it will be awesome.
[HTC One S] plakers:
They did release them for the OneV and OneX... And I saw an article recently that confirm it (I google'd, or may be on their official FB wall).

Anyway, thanks for the answers ;)
[HTC One S] xkonni:
i too would say its pretty good...

Yes,

Yes, all aosp. you can install any third party keyboard you like. personally i prefer swiftkey.

Yes, its in settings -> sound
[HTC One S] FunkyELF:
I'll second that. Good job guys. It was pretty sad before.
[HTC One S] xkonni:
well it was a wake lock. blame htc for doing weird things with the camera...

and it was fine if you didnt use the camera ;)
[HTC One S] Opentang:
Loving this ROM! Just curious, what is holding it back from being a beta release?
[HTC One S] xkonni:
there are many little things left. and its just the version name anyway ^^

maybe when we got the kernel source.
[HTC One S] pyrocide:
Has HTC budged at all on releasing the kernel source? Or still the same ole BS Answer of check the website for when we release it...within 120 days...?
[HTC One S] tnpapadakos:
same BS answer
[HTC One S] HighRoIIer:
Is there a workaround yet?

Would like to play GTA again =)

Does anyone else have the issue of the SMS not vibrating even if it is set to always?
[HTC One S] djsubtronic:
One issue here that I think is device-specific: If i am swiping my finger across the screen and accidentally go under the screen onto the capacitive buttons while still swiping, the buttons will register a press. So eg if I am swiping near the bottom of the keyboard and my thumb goes a bit under the screen over the home button, it will end up going to the home screen. It's a little annoying if you're in the middle of typing something, and I didn't experience this on my previous phone which was also running the latest CM9. It would ignore the buttons if you swiped onto them from the screen.
[HTC One S] qwerty warrior:
Great rom guys

One small issue is that the call button in the call log sometimes doesnt work

And wake phone by volume buttons also doesn't work after a while

Every thing else is great for me
[HTC One S] plakers:
Is an alternative mirror available?...

(I experience problems with mediafire)
[HTC One S] xkonni:
tried rom manager? otherweise i can upload somewhere else too...
[HTC One S] plakers:
I'll take a look on ROM Manager (removed it since I was on stock based ROMs). Anyway, an alternate location could be great... :D

Mediafire gives me blank pages with my phone's browser (and some previous problems), and is filtered out at the office :rolleyes:
[HTC One S] qwerty warrior:
request desktop site

and

enable flash
[HTC One S] Untouchab1e:
How is power management coming along? Is battery life on par with stock?
[HTC One S] pyrocide:
Has anyone, on a US One S, run into an issue with cell data and apps that access the internet such as Netflix, Pandora, Play Store, Web browsers etc, not connecting?

Giving messages such as No Cellular Data has been found, or Trying to connect to the network etc.

Anyone run into this problem before?
[HTC One S] c19932:
I do with facebook
[HTC One S] linds6630:
i get better than stock
[HTC One S] FRuiTBoOT:
Yeah only with FB.
[HTC One S] robotmaxtron:
Yes, its a known issue that is on the first page since alpha3.
[HTC One S] plakers:
Yep, may be related to Data state changes may not always acquire IP via DHCP... An Airplane On/Off may be a temporary solution?
[HTC One S] xkonni:
just put all files on a server that should not give anyone troubles. see OP for link ;)
[HTC One S] plakers:
Great!... Thanks for the new repository, would you like them to be mirrored? (I can use some of my Dropbox space or my ISP's hosting space, if it can help a bit)
[HTC One S] xkonni:
for now i think the server can handle it easily.

thanks for the offer, will get in contact when necessary ;)
[HTC One S] intervigil:
There is an issue with GPS + data usage that causes a data disconnect. This commonly happens when starting Facebook (since it uses GPS for a location fix on start) and Maps.

I don't think the Netflix/Play Store/etc issue is related. In fact I haven't seen anything like that one before. Please supply a radio log using adb logcat -b radio.
[HTC One S] Untouchab1e:
I reckon that issue is related to the fact that the Facebook app drained 20% of my battery in 3 hours according to the battery usage graph
[HTC One S] djsubtronic:
What exactly is LPA? I tried googling but couldn't find anything to explain it.
[HTC One S] Spider_Pig27:
thank you so much... thanks to you this just became my daily rom.. thanks
[HTC One S] Closed Source Project:
Sorry to chime in on such a note but I am new to this device, Does the CM team have any intention to bring the official CM9 release to our device at any time? I looked but could not find any valid info as of yet. Thank you!

LPA = low power audio :D I'm not sure exactly what it does fully, but it either allows a low amount of power/signal to the small external speaker or it is just the chime when the device reaches <15% battery.
[HTC One S] djsubtronic:
I'm experiencing a bug where when I boot up the phone, the LED flashes orange for no reason. Anyone else? (alpha7)
[HTC One S] jmacdonald19:
Enjoying... Thanks dev. Haven't run into the data dropping issue yet but everything is working well right now.
[HTC One S] xkonni:
We want it to become official!

Whenever we feel it's ready to be official we will take the necessary steps to achieve that. Intervigil has already pushed some patches into the cm repo.

Yes it's called low power audio.

It's used to play the audio directly via hardware, without using CPU cycles.

Oh you're right.

It can be toggled off by testing flash in settings. Wonder why I never noticed it before.

Will release a fix asap.

[HTC One S] ozzie1p:
Can't for the life of me get this to boot regularly! I'll try 10 times then on the 11th it randomly boots up.

I copy the boot.img from the Rom with 7zip to my platform-tools folder. I reboot into bootloader, plug in USB then flash the image. Reboot into recovery, wipe data/factory reset. Flash Rom, then gapps and reboot......nothing. It usually hangs at the initial HTC screen then reboots itself.

I've tried flashing rom first then boot.img, redownloaded the Rom, rinse repeat. I can't get build 7 to come up at all. If anybody has any ideas it would be greatly appreciated!
[HTC One S] xkonni:
can you get a logcat and post it to pastebin?

or join irc for more assistance ;)
[HTC One S] djsubtronic:
Thanks for that. Is there a specific way this works, or does it work all the tmie with any player? I tried Apollo, but noticed that CPU usage was still how it was before. My main player is PlayerPro though and I'm using the inbuilt codec because apparently Android is awful at decoding HE-AACv2. Could that be why LPA isn't working for me, because of HE-AACv2 format?

Dunno if this is any help but while it was flashing orange, I plugged the charger, it continued to flash for a few minutes and then became solid orange and the problem went away.
[HTC One S] intervigil:
If the player uses the Android AwesomePlayer (yes that's what it's called) API then it should be able to take advantage of LPA. I don't know what PlayerPro uses, but if they have some other sort of HE-AAC codec installed it's very likely it does NOT use the AwesomePlayer API.

In regards to merging into mainline CM, the goal is to eventually hit nightly status. I've been pushing code for msm8960 support into CM gerrit, but the audio repos themselves need to be forked, and we lack kernel source to fix a few other things. Additionally, the camera is a huge mess.
[HTC One S] plakers:
Now on Alpha7... Everything seems to be great! Thanks guys.

Noticed some small problems :

- the IP renew problem (on wifi/3G) : but known issue, did someone found a solution to force a renew?

- my DSP settings are not applied to my headset, I tried to kill the process, unplug/plug the headset back, relaunch the DSP : profile still not applied

Everything else seems to be good :)
[HTC One S] cowgaR:
maybe when AT&T Galaxy SIII will come out (SGH-I747) based on Snapdragon S4, together with source codes, S4 'hacking' will gain more popularity. Somehow Samsung phones are enjoying better CM support these days than HTC ones (Qualcomm usually), used to be other way around...

Krait is the new kid on the block but I prefer it much above any tegra3/exynos SoC variants, so hopefully at least HTC One XL (S4) sources will be released soon and development hooks more ppl inside...

xkonni & intervigil are doing amazing work considering they are just 2 ppl compared to 6-10 of some other unofficial CM ROM ports and there isn't source out yet...
[HTC One S] plakers:
Yep, not an easy job for 2guys, without sources they need... Hope to see a "fork" from another phone with quite same H/W soon, if HTC don't release the code... But the "One" series should be available in few weeks! (At least it seems, and already the case for One V and One X...)

We just have to wait a bit... :D
[HTC One S] The Jones:
Since Alpha7 I am having 2 weird issues:

My data connection suddenly started going on and off and I am not getting as strong a connection

Secondly, my gmail autosync has stopped working. I can manually sync fine, just doesn't autosync, on wifi or normal 3g etc.

Anyone else with these issues?

Thanks
[HTC One S] Opentang:
I lost my data connection all together. Reverted back to alpha 6.
[HTC One S] djsubtronic:
Data seems mostly stable for me on alpha7 but I noticed the bug where GPS kills the data anytime it comes on.
[HTC One S] plakers:
nobody found a trick/tip to force a data reconnect? (dhcp renew & so on, market app?)... I experience the same problem, didn't try with the "GPS data kill" but some random disconnect. I tried some Tasker tasks to witch off/on data and on/off network, but doesn't work, only way to solve is a reboot :(

will do a shell script to force a renew... and launch it in Tasker, let's see if it works ;)

EDIT 1 :

ip addr show gives me an UNKNOWN state for rmnet0, ifconfig tells the link is up...

Will try to ifconfig down/up if data goes down... and see if it solves something...

EDIT 2 :

Strange effect... I switched from GSM Auto PRL to GSM Only - and no more disconnect for the moment
[HTC One S] The Jones:
I wonder if that is true. If so, it confirms something I saw but thought I was imagining earlier when I got stuck on GSM only but had no data issues.
[HTC One S] ozzie1p:
After flashing boot then wiping and flashing rom/gapps and rebooting logcat returns this one line;

- exec '/system/bin/sh' failed: No such file or directory (2) -

(sorry, had to study up on how to logcat)
[HTC One S] plakers:
Ouch... This basic shell is called by init scripts - if they don't find it, phone won't boot. Previous ROM was a Stock? I had this problem too (on some ROMs with older phone : I re-flashed, re-wiped, re-flashed, and it worked... Don't ask my why lol).

The "data lost" problem for me is solved since I forced 2G only mode. May be not related to only DHCP so, but while toggling between 2G/3G ? Dunno...
[HTC One S] ozzie1p:
Ya, didn't look good to me...lol. I don't know what to do. I was on LeeDroid before, and every Sense rom flashes fine. Weird thing is I try 20 times and it will finally work, so I don't know what happens the other 19.
[HTC One S] Totòòò:
is it normal for the led light to constantly blink?
[HTC One S] :
No, it's a bug, you should go to settings>display>notification light and then test a led color.

@our great developers

The camera takes pictures always with a hint of green (not just a hint). Has that something do with the absence of kernel souces?

By the way great work. Thanks for your effort!:D
[HTC One S] bobjbain:
No, no green tinted photos for me, strange.

I do have the "no data" issue though
[HTC One S] pyrocide:
I am now experiencing some issue with Alpha 7.

The flashing LED light, even after reflashing and wiping Dalvik cache.

After a reboot, I am not able to send text messages or surf the net or doing anything relating to data unless i attempt to make a call at least 3 times, each time giving me a different message each time.

First it stated i was in airplane mode - checked and airplane mode was not on in settings

Second it stated that data plan was not available - checked and make sure data coverage was activated in settings.

Third time making a call it finally let me make a call and then was flooded with old text messages.

Last thing i am experiencing, is when the home page refreshes, I have no icons until i touch the screen then they all flicker back onto the page, some in the incorrect order and some I have never had on the home page. After the icons come back i still have a small i guess you could say artifact; prob .5"x1" square where nothing but the wall paper is showing. Over laps icons so only half of the icon is showing and then blinks and goes back to normal.

Think I might do a titanium backup of the apps and data and do a complete wipe, fastboot the boot.img again and reflash alpha 7 and see if that fixes the issues i am having.

EDIT: Upgraded to alpha 7.1 and everything seems to be running fine for right now.
[HTC One S] wilcoholic:
Some of the bugs that I encountered

1) leds keep flashing after reboot

2) no signal at all after reboot. it gives me an error when trying to search for a network too. i could only solve this by turning airplane mode on and off.

3) and i am not sure if this is normal but the blacks on the amoled are not blacks. the individual pixels are still turned on.

4) and i am also not sure about this either. but I was just browsing the web and suddenly i had a huge battery drain of 6% in just 5 minutes. highly unusual
[HTC One S] funziebear:
I'm getting some of these also . The battery drop was odd but I got it also unplugged checked email and here and replies to some text on dropped 5 percent . I also have to toggle airplane mode after reboot my keys don't flash tho
[HTC One S] chrisrudolf:
Same here...alway airplanemode after reboot

Sent from my HTC One S
[HTC One S] xkonni:
working on that... for now just disable airplane mode manually...
[HTC One S] RobbyXL:
Loving this ROM thnks!

I noticed that the phone is vibrating to hard while typing a tekst or using the capacitive buttons.

Dont know if its normal but it was softer on the stock and blackdragon rom
[HTC One S] djsubtronic:
Do the GPS/data/signal issues still exist on 7.1? For now I have gone back to 6, but if 7.1 is running I'll update.
[HTC One S] robotmaxtron:
A bit. Just turn off airplane mode after a reboot. 7.1 is my daily driver
[HTC One S] HighRoIIer:
When i use GPS, Data tourns off. Needed a reboot to have data running again. (7.1)

Gesendet von meinem HTC One S mit Tapatalk 2
[HTC One S] djsubtronic:
Thanks, I think I'll stick to 6 until these issues are fixed.
[HTC One S] djsubtronic:
I decided to try out Linpack and Quadrant. My Linpack score was only around 45 for single thread and 90 for multithread, and Quadrant was around 3500. Whereas on all reviews/youtube videos I have seen this phone exceed 100/200 for single/multi thread Linpack score and over 5000 for Quadrant. Why am I getting such low scores? I also tried it with the Performance governor with no difference.
[HTC One S] funziebear:
I get a good 8hours out of it with moderate use like allllll day
[HTC One S] tnpapadakos:
Quadrant is quirky
[HTC One S] djsubtronic:
Fair enough, but linpack for me is consistently less than 50% of what it should be... that's pretty huge, and seems more than just a quirk. Can someone using this ROM also try it and see what they get? My phone was idle when I ran it so background strain shouldn't have reduced it.
[HTC One S] tnpapadakos:
sorry i updated that to be a link to an article/opinion....check it out, it also talks about linpack a bit...anyway, i would run it but im on leedroid's right now
[HTC One S] xkonni:
Right now I got 34 hours and 36% left...

Light use though.

We're still running the sense kernel that is not optimized for cm at all.

For now it's running smoothly and i'm happy with that.

Look at benchmarks when cayniarb got his hands on the kernel sources :-)

You using us or international version one s?
[HTC One S] klutch:
so far soo good love the rom on my HTC One S but by any chance has anyone had a problem like for instance i put the ROM for the first time and everything went ok but once i went to CWM to install something n let it boot again normaly till it finish i had no signal i was figuring out everything and nothing but then i tried to check Airplane mode and took it off after 30sec a few sec later it got the signal everytime reboot same thing any one knows why tho ?:confused::confused:
[HTC One S] plakers:
Yep... Battery life is really good for me too. I got 32hours with 31% left yesterday. With moderate use, some wifi, 3G and sync on.

I got ~40 in single thread, and ~90 in multi thread. Quadrant is around 3900 for me. It may be lower to the Stock one, but these CM9 early builds will sure get far better in few weeks - really good for a non-optimized for the moment. For now it's enough for me, as it is smooth and responsive.

Waiting for HTC to deliver the sources... :D
[HTC One S] bobjbain:
Over 24 hours, light to moderate use, 55% battery left.

After initial install battery died really quickly but the it was fine after first charge

I've never bothered with the **** measuring competition that is Quadrant or Linpack.

For me the ROM (and phone) feels smooth and stable and that is good enough!!

Mind you I have come from an HD2 so that might explain it :D
[HTC One S] djsubtronic:
I just noticed, the CRT animation options aren't available at all, I thought that was built into the CM code?
[HTC One S] kuroneko007:
The CRT animations were in the Android framework in Gingerbread, CM team just enabled them. But I heard that the framework is really different in ICS, and it's going to be much harder to implement CRT animation this time.
[HTC One S] charkey:
I know the Samsung CM team have the code included to run the CRT animations in their ICS builds.
[HTC One S] charkey:
Is it possible to revert back to the stock T-Mobile ROM?
[HTC One S] xkonni:
Just restore your backup...

Sent from my HTC One S
[HTC One S] djsubtronic:
Coming from the HTC Desire S, they had the CRT off animation working fine but were having difficulty getting the on animation to work properly.
[HTC One S] bobjbain:
Honestly, what is this fascination with CRT animations?

This isn't the only device I've seen people moan about the lack of CRT animations on and I wonder why?

Surely having a working phone is more important.

And on from that :-

If I have a ringtone on my sd card (/mnt/sdcard/media/audio/ringtones) then when my phone receives a call it will play the tone once!

However if I move it internally it will repeat :confused:

Any logcats I can provide that would be useful?
[HTC One S] benjamin.j.goodwin:
Have you formatted the SD card? Normally that is the issue.
[HTC One S] plakers:
second this... and if they are available I'll simply disable them (but it's my choice, and may be I don't understand any of the "advantages" or "look&feel")...

a working camera could be a bit more intersting feature :D

any news for an upcoming update?

(or any news from HTC to release the sources? ;))
[HTC One S] djsubtronic:
How did you conclude I was moaning? I just only noticed it and was curious as to its absence because to my knowledge, I thought it had been merged into CM9.

It's a matter of preference. The camera does work. Only video doesn't.
[HTC One S] plakers:
That's what I'd meant.

No problem man, that was only my personal opinion for the CRT effects' interest, some give their opinion, so I only did the same
[HTC One S] Ntarasiuk:
Could you please add Apollo, the CM9 music app?
[HTC One S] Lakeshow423:
I couldnt get data to work, any ideas?
[HTC One S] jriv:
Check to see if its airplane mode phone reboots into airplane mode for some reason

sent from a guy living in a van down by the river
[HTC One S] charkey:
I have this app pre-installed on the 7.1 build.
[HTC One S] intervigil:
Data *should* be better in upcoming builds. Apollo has also been fully merged into CM9 upstream so it should start showing up in new builds as well.
[HTC One S] alchemyst:
Hypothetical question :) When we have the kernel sources, would it be possible to have the soft buttons light up (and stay lit) when there is an unread message/missed call?

I miss the trackball notifications on my Nexus One :(
[HTC One S] aoprea:
why USB transfer is too low ? ... i get max 800 Kb - 1 mb/s
[HTC One S] djsubtronic:
Kernel problem. You can use Multi Mount SD app for the time being, it gets around 6-7 MB/s.
[HTC One S] Kalashnikitty:
You can add this workaround by yourself.

Edit your build.prop and add these at the end:

ro.vold.umsdirtyratio=40
[HTC One S] sharkoparko:
Excellent question. Yeah, slow blink/glow would be nice. I think such option will be more practical than CRT, etc.

I do bother HTC on HTCdev and fb for kernel but I guess they don't care...

..xkonni and intervigil are my role models in 2012!
[HTC One S] charkey:
We have the notification light for that. I'd rather have one light blink as opposed to three lights blink for power preservation purposes.
[HTC One S] sharkoparko:
not really

The notification light on HTC ONE S is a design flaw. It is burried down in the speaker mesh/screen so you need to look/face the phone directly and from a very close distance. Example: You can't see the light even the phone is lying on the desk next to you. If I reach and grab the phone to see the light I might turn it on and check for notification, as well.

...I just recall we have notification light on this device, since it is so useless and badly positioned
[HTC One S] KJS021:
Just for democratic purposes. You got my vote! This would be awesome!
[HTC One S] xkonni:
its possible to light them up with some low value, no blinking though.

But that would probably not go into mainline for now.

I'll patch something up and post it here for brave testers.

Currently preparing alpha8. should be up soon ;)
[HTC One S] klutch:
has anyone having problems with the signal mines its changing to much from H to 3G and the bars insted of being full blue it will stay gray sometimes and yes ihave alot of coverage of full 4G in my area ....n i have to reboot and wont chatch signal n check airplaine more on n then off to get the signal back why is that? :confused::confused::confused:
[HTC One S] xkonni:
For the switching from H to 3G, update your radio.

Losing signal is a known bug that sometimes dhcp fails to acquire an ip adress, see OP.

The airplane mode issue should be resolved in alpha8.
[HTC One S] klutch:
were can i update my radio any links to have this active and running?
[HTC One S] Lakeshow423:
Thanks for the update X!
[HTC One S] ValliJoe:
Does anyone know if the latest builds support video calling?
[HTC One S] The Jones:
Has the kernel changed for alpha 8? I guess I am asking if the boot img changed at all.

Thanks
