Ah. Well then, my apologies, you are correct. We are now ruled by Governor Voldemort and the Death Eaters (aka Florida Tea Party). But considering our state is run by scared old white people and Alabamian redneck transplants, I'm not too surprised. Which is why I'll be moving away as soon as I graduate. Possibly out of the country entirely. Any suggestions?

But enough of this off-topic hooey phooey,

Is this just a problem in the 7.8 update? Because I'm on 7.7, and I've never had an issue with ringtones not sticking. I have 7.8 downloaded, but now I'm a bit wary of flashing it. 7.7 has been damn near perfect for me. Thanks for the WidgetLocker suggestion by the way, works great!
[HTC Amaze 4G] kaabob:
Not sure why we're getting mixed results, but my ringtones are sticking fine with 7.8. Had to do a wipe cuz I accidentally updated SU binaries and anything req root would not run.
[HTC Amaze 4G] GuyInDogSuit:
Canada?

I think it's just 7.8. Some people have it, some people don't. I thought at first I wasn't one of them who did, but then I tested it and it indeed does change after reboot.
[HTC Amaze 4G] sbcdave:
I'm not sure if this is posted about yet or not I don't want to read through 3300 posts to find out so I'm asking if anyone knows how to get the volume controls for screen off Music Control working. I drive a motorcycle and tuck my phone in my helmet to listen to music and it's nice to be able to reach in the helmet and hold the button down to change songs. I found the option in energy tweaks but for some reason it doesn't work I'm assuming some other option in the settings is overriding it somehow. Maybe it just doesn't work.
[HTC Amaze 4G] fcpelayo:
It works on nrgz Rom not sure about this rom tho. However you can use player pro music player and it works
[HTC Amaze 4G] sbcdave:
You know of any app that works that don't cost 5 dollars
[HTC Amaze 4G] GuyInDogSuit:
Damn, it doesn't work for me either. All I can suggest is Headset Button Controller. It requires a headset with a button, though, so it may not be what you need.
[HTC Amaze 4G] sbcdave:
Thanks for the ideas I have tried several Bluetooth headsets and different types of ear buds and headphones. nothing seems to fit under the helmet without extreme pain. I can slide a smartphone right in my left cheek through the flip wind shield though. I just tried a few music players no luck I'm assuming there is some settings that is overriding the energy tweak setting. Same with the app drawer background color I set it up in energy tweaks but for some reason it doesn't apply however a lot of the other settings in energy tweaks did apply such as the notifications background color
[HTC Amaze 4G] TMAC 13:
Not that I know of because I only tried it on NRG... I didn't like the stock dialer but three AOSP style in SR is sweet so I never changed it. Till now... And now its all wonky.

I'll try a logcat

- HTC Amaze - Eclipze's Speed Rom 7.5 - Fauxy Edition
[HTC Amaze 4G] sbcdave:
So I was just trying a bunch of stuff I noticed while trying to double tap the volume button. even screen off it still controls volume. I wonder if its coded into the rom that way.
[HTC Amaze 4G] antiquezip:
Tactile Player

It works on this SpeedRom 7.8 but here is a trick based on my experiences:

* With stock player un-installed, it's only work on PlayerPro but not on PowerAmp

* With stock player remain installed, it's works on both.

Simple to use, double press on volume to change track, double press on power button to pause/play
[HTC Amaze 4G] fcpelayo:
Double tap and or holding the volume down equals previous track. Also on headset button to answer calls double tap will always change to next track. Or click equals pause.
[HTC Amaze 4G] biker200:
hi

thanks for the rom, i just upgraded from gb to this one now.

i miss few things.

1.stock phone dialer.

2.sense themed, not aosp.

vcan it be changed?

thanks.
[HTC Amaze 4G] anon1ski:
Lg stereo bluetooths. This is exactly why I bought them. They fit good under my helmet. And the best thing is the controls lay around your neck. Easy access while riding.
[HTC Amaze 4G] jsyi84:
Take htcdialer.apk, htccontact.apk, phone.apk from the stock rom, use root explorer or similar to paste them into system/app, change permissions to rw,r,r, restart phone and it'll be back to stock sense dialer and phone with all the goodness of speed room... This is how I've been using it since v5 or whatever as I needed the ability to set user specific ringtones and such back then since you couldn't with the aosp dialer. I've gotten used to it this way so I don't really miss the aosp dialer anymore
[HTC Amaze 4G] biker200:
thank you, will do.
[HTC Amaze 4G] biker200:
what program do you use to unzip the apk from the stock rom?

i have the system.img.

thanks.
[HTC Amaze 4G] kaabob:
I used ES File Explorer to open the zip and extract the necessary apks from /system/app/
[HTC Amaze 4G] fcpelayo:
Biker I think he deserves a thanks on this one. It's there and you have 8 a day to use
[HTC Amaze 4G] Oguti1985@gmail.com:
Miui speed Rom?
[HTC Amaze 4G] jsyi84:
The easiest way IMO is:

1* download a stock rom or rom that uses the sense dialer.

2* use 7zip or WinRAR to open the zip file

3* click to open SYSTEM, then APP

4* pull the HTCdialer.apk, HTCcontact.apk, and phone.apk and transfer them over to your phone sdcard (download links below if it makes your life easier)

5* open a ES, Root Explorer or a file manager of your choice and go to to the location of the 3 files you transferred and multi-select the 3 files

6* navigate back to SYSTEM, then APP and paste the 3 files here.

7* longpress on each of these 3 and select PERMISSIONS and make sure each is set to RW-R-R

8* then look for CONTACTS.apk & PHONE.apk and select to rename and add .bak to each filename just in case you need it again...

9* reboot your phone

10* enjoy....

Here's the 3 files just in case you wanted them...

[HTC Amaze 4G] kaabob:
Uh oh ringtones are not sticking... This is after installing uninstalling a few apps. Will do a full wipe and get back toyall
[HTC Amaze 4G] jsyi84:
is this after you switched from the aosp to sense dialer?
[HTC Amaze 4G] skugpezz:
The music player crashes very often. Even going from now playing to albums cause it to crash.
[HTC Amaze 4G] kaabob:
Good news is I got ringtones to stick again. Bad news I had to revert to a previous 7.8 Nandroid backup I had.

The only changes I had made that involves root (and still able to have ringtones stick) was dcacklam's MMS fix, beats audio installer, and busybox update.

Make sure NOT to update SU binaries or it will break your root access (and no option to revert either!)

I will have to install app's one by one and reboot each time to figure out which app is the culprit breaking the ringtone stickiness. :fingers-crossed: Long hard process but worth it! I highly suspect it's an app that tampers with the system or requires root access (just a jist)

reminds me of testing what food allergen one is allergic to -- although that process isn't quite as simple as an install and reboot :p
[HTC Amaze 4G] GuyInDogSuit:
Superuser or SuperSU?
[HTC Amaze 4G] PeterC18st:
Can confirm that BT isn't working. Basically it doesn't even turn on. on 7.8 with Faux v23b2 reflashed kernel again still a no go. Should I try and replace something or reflash a stock RUU and go through the process again?

Oh on another note to the person that wanted the stock sense dialer because you can set custom contact ringtones. That feature is still present on stock 7.8. No need to take out the setting.apk phone.apk and contacts.apk unless I read it wrong my apologies.
[HTC Amaze 4G] azcledel:
The Bluetooth problem is related to faux kernal just flash an older version if you have one faux 23 broke my bt too
[HTC Amaze 4G] PeterC18st:
Thanx Bro. I don't need BT as I use wired headphones for the time being but thought I would report back. Will post this in the right forum. Again THANX!
[HTC Amaze 4G] azcledel:
I use bt to transfer files to and from my computer when I don't feel like sitting with my phone plugged into my tower its annoying getting up to answer a text when my tower is across the room lol
[HTC Amaze 4G] kaabob:
The bundled Superuser. Upgrading the app thru market is OK, just don't use feature that upgrades the binaries.
[HTC Amaze 4G] biker200:
of course.

i just used xda classic style which hasent this butten.

---------- Post added at 07:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:36 PM ----------

thank you very much.
[HTC Amaze 4G] bige914:
Supersu binary actually fixes issues vs regular su binary update. Just saying people.
[HTC Amaze 4G] biker200:
i have another ques guys.

is there any way to install htc sence stock again in this rom?

thanks.
[HTC Amaze 4G] GuyInDogSuit:
No. The point of this ROM is to provide a ROM as close to AOSP as possible without breaking features. If you want Sense, flash a Sense ROM.
[HTC Amaze 4G] bige914:
Umm technically not. That you would have to do by installing a sense rom. Since his rom this one is like sense removed. But there are some good sense rooms available so yeah you can't just re enable sense in a near senseless sense rom.
[HTC Amaze 4G] kaabob:
Interesting... I thought it would be the same...

Not sure if I wanna risk boring and restoring another Nandriod.

I updated SU binaries through SuperUser last time that broke all root permissions that prevented any attempt at root access... Even trying to fix with uninstalling (titanium would not run correctly) or updating SU binaries with SuperSU (would not run either cuz it needs root) did not work.

Hopefully SuperSU will work. Will try with a fresh install of the next speedrom
[HTC Amaze 4G] skugpezz:
Why doesn't the ringer works in this rom?
[HTC Amaze 4G] RusRap:
Umm yes it does bud. You may want to be more specific with the issues you're having
[HTC Amaze 4G] skugpezz:
I finally figured it out. The ring tone settings has the wrong hint. It is hinting Wi-Fi
[HTC Amaze 4G] bige914:
id like to add DO NOT I REPEAT DO NOT update your SU binary through normal SU application. its happened to me once and broke my root. instead ONLY update through SuperSU ive tested it, and my phone works flawlessly.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Devas4:
Love the rom but going through some issues

- Bluetooth Music keeps crashing

- Bluetooth does not auto connect to paired devices when in range (This works when stock kernels are running)

- Mail keeps crashing

Im running Faux 22
[HTC Amaze 4G] GuyInDogSuit:
The latest versions of faux kernel have been having Bluetooth issues. Try an older one.
[HTC Amaze 4G] lsmrfydgaf:
Sorry everyone... I've been trying to find how to keep the ringtones from goin back to default (no sound) after reboot and can't find it.. I work in a government building and I'm forced to shut my phone off everyday at work.

Any help would be awesome!

Thank you all in advance:)
[HTC Amaze 4G] xDC23:
so have any devs considered implementing the font that can read emojis onto their roms? it seems like it would be an easy thing to do. seeing as how everytime i do another install i have to change the font myself. but i was just saying so that everyone else would be able to see emojis since there's so many iphone owners -.-
[HTC Amaze 4G] EclipzeRemix:
Is their a font where the emojis are full color
[HTC Amaze 4G] EclipzeRemix:
Double post
[HTC Amaze 4G] xDC23:
not that i know of/:

but there's fonts that will at least display it instead of a box. n theres a few apps you can use to be able to send emojis yourself.
[HTC Amaze 4G] GuyInDogSuit:
Odd. I use GoSMS, so I don't see this as an issue. Then again, hardly any of my friends actually use emojis or emoticons or whatever you wanna call them.
[HTC Amaze 4G] xDC23:
GoSMS has a plugin so you can view them, but when using apps such as twitter the emojis come up as squares .
[HTC Amaze 4G] invisiblefire101:
Idk if people noticed or its just me but everyday for my ringtones n notification to work I gotta set them up manually why is this ? N I also noticed from the call history u touch on a name n info pops up n if u try to text that person it will force close n its really not a problem cuz it still text the person

[HTC Amaze 4G] alvinma:
another confirmation for SU.

SuperSU is great, not only that it doesn't break anything when updating binary, but it also runs faster/smoother then superuser.
[HTC Amaze 4G] GuyInDogSuit:
And that's why I prefer SuperSU.
[HTC Amaze 4G] PeterC18st:
Reverted back to 7.6. The wifi calling lag was driving me insane. On 7.6 it didn't lag for some strange reason. Whatever you did eclipze I don't know what broke it in 7.8
[HTC Amaze 4G] sbcdave:
I have seen 1 person claim the volume control works to control music while screen off. can anyone else verify that this does work. I have tried everything I can think of and cannot get it to work.
[HTC Amaze 4G] PeterC18st:
It worked on my setup when listening to doubletwist and the siriusxm app. Was on 7.8 with faux kernel v21 thru v23b2 I believe.
[HTC Amaze 4G] kaabob:
How did you update the SU binaries with SuperSU? Download install SuperSU, update binaries, then uninstall original superuser app?
[HTC Amaze 4G] biker200:
volume control is working fine by me, when the screen is off.
[HTC Amaze 4G] misfit61871:
It's not working for me either.

[HTC Amaze 4G] EclipzeRemix:

[HTC Amaze 4G] TheCrow1372:
They mean when phone is turned off and ur playing music, ur supposed to be able to turn volume up and down using volume rocker while phone is off

"It Can't Rain All the Time", sent from my AMAZE 4G/ENERGY BLUE
[HTC Amaze 4G] kenypowa:
It works with doubletwist; I'm on stock kernel.
[HTC Amaze 4G] GuyInDogSuit:
I don't think that's what he meant. It sounds like they're referring to the music controls, not volume. When the screen is off, Vol + is supposed to skip to the next track, while Vol - goes back one track. It doesn't do that for me, it just controls volume.
[HTC Amaze 4G] kaabob:
That's my understanding and also my experience.
[HTC Amaze 4G] alvinma:
yea that's what I mean. except you don't need to uninstall the original superuser app. you can just leave it there.

---------- Post added at 11:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:59 PM ----------

When you use apps like poweramp you can change the behavior of the Volume controls in the option of the app.

Otherwise it's rather good to have them function as they meant to be.
[HTC Amaze 4G] GuyInDogSuit:
I prefer to have my headset control the skipping/reverse anyway. Volume keys should just be for volume. :silly:
[HTC Amaze 4G] lsmrfydgaf:
Does any1 know how to fix the alarm? It doesn't make any sound...only the vibrate works (which wouldn't wake me up or any1 else I know for that matter)

Nevermind... Figured it out (I think). At least for me, "zedge" ringtones don't work, only "stock" rom ringtones will work.
[HTC Amaze 4G] GuyInDogSuit:
The stock Clock app, you mean? You might have to reboot or force the media scanner to run before it can find the new ones.
[HTC Amaze 4G] invisiblefire101:
Why does my ringtone n notification goes back to default but without sound ugh
[HTC Amaze 4G] kaabob:
Several users have reported going back to default and having no sound after reboot.

Not sure what causes this problem ( I think it may be installing a certain app with root access,) but I do not have this problem and have not identified what causes it.
[HTC Amaze 4G] lsmrfydgaf:
I believe the answer to this anomaly is posted earlier in this thread...somewhere soon after clipze posted the 7.8 update.. had something to do with him being in school I believe...
[HTC Amaze 4G] tbonezx11:
Alright, I have had v 4.1.2 on my Nexus 7 for almost 12 hours. Why hasn't there.com an update to this ROM? Haha, kissing.

Ben using this as daily driver since v7.5 thanks for all the hard work
[HTC Amaze 4G] riprowan:
No, that was something else: Clipze took it the volume button sound that plays when you change the volume.
[HTC Amaze 4G] knifeproz:
Eclipze I love your work. I'm currently going to test Sense 4. Slight question though, will you make this 3.6 sense into 4.0 sense in the next/future releases for stability/speed improvements? or will you keep it at sense 3.6 and make a a different 4.0 Rom on it's own?
[HTC Amaze 4G] EclipzeRemix:
Sense 3.6 has more AOSP elements than sense 4, so no i will not rebase it.

i will make an entirely new rom for sense 4, but im not the only dev making a sense 4 rom :p
[HTC Amaze 4G] knifeproz:
Oh I didn't know that. The more you know~
[HTC Amaze 4G] kaabob:
So I've found one instance that lead to broken non-sticking ringtone and notifications sound.

I installed SuperSU, let it run the first time to run updates. This did not break anything.

Then I uninstalled superuser.app using SystemTuner. For some reason it did not uninstall everything because as superuser as a system app (or something), the play store would show up as "updates available" even though I had already uninstalled it. I updated it anyway so that it won't keep bugging me, and after a subsequent restart, my ringtone and notifications sounds were NOT sticking!

Reverted back to old Nandroid, installed SuperSU, let it run and update binaries, and let it ALONE (did not touch superuser.app). Ringtones and notifications back to normal and sticking after restart.

Lesson learned: don't mess/uninstall system apps!
[HTC Amaze 4G] Ventus_zx:
How do I fix the dps force close problem?
[HTC Amaze 4G] invisiblefire101:
Thanks but the ting is sometimes it goes on vibrate by itself idk y
[HTC Amaze 4G] kaabob:
My phone would only vibrate when the ringtones did not stick. Restart your phone and see if Setting/Sounds/Ringtone and Notifications are at 'Default'. If so, it probably will only vibrate (because the sounds are not sticking.)
[HTC Amaze 4G] fidorulz:
Any way to fix the multitasking in portrait mode to look like this?

Currently the apps are always shown in horizontal layout even if in portrait mode like this

Its a cosmetic issue more then anything but seems a shame to have all that wasted screen real estate.

otherwise great rom overall
[HTC Amaze 4G] GuyInDogSuit:
Not sure if this includes the File Picker app, but File Picker IS necessary to choose files via the UI and Settings, mainly ringtones. I froze it once and was unable to set ringtones and notifications..

I just keep my Apex Launcher set to portrait only, so I've never seen that happen before.
[HTC Amaze 4G] fidorulz:
My APEX launcher is in portrait mode also but multi tasking still shows tiles in horizontal configuration and never vertical as in the first picture.

Odd. I did a full clean install with no mods
[HTC Amaze 4G] skugpezz:
Weird I don't have this problem.
[HTC Amaze 4G] blacksapphire08:
Just wanted to say thanks to Eclipze for all the hard work you put into developing your ROMs. However, i'm sorry to say that i'm done with Speed ROM. I've used nearly every version released but for whatever reason i've just had way too many problems and i'm done putting up with it on a daily basis. On the latest versions (7.0 and up) i've had to disable one CPU core entirely and lower the max frequency to 1Ghz on the other just to get any kind of decent battery life. Constant issues with trying to send MMS, network connections dropping in and out, sounds disappearing, etc.

I'm just saying that its not working out for me and I dont blame you. It's HTC's fault for embedding Sense deep into the phone that have a pure Android experience is probably never going to happen, at least not without their help. Thanks again and good luck with your future ROM's *bro fist* :highfive:
[HTC Amaze 4G] blacksapphire08:
Well I wasnt even getting 8hrs of battery life idling with Speed ROM 7.5, not even kidding. After making the changes to the CPU frequencies I cant get about 8-10 hrs of light use which is still worse than the stock ROM for me. I was using Faux V22.

As for the sounds disappearing, it was a mix of ones I added and original ringtones/notifications. The only way to get them back was to reflash the ROM. Why are you being so hostile? I said this ROM wasnt working out for me and was trying to be polite since I need something that is stable for daily use. You argue that people blame it on the ROM, well yeah what else is there to blame it on? Sure maybe a bad flash but it happened every time and I wasnt the only one so yeah.
[HTC Amaze 4G] ericdjobs:
Wasn't meaning to be hostile, I think you took me the wrong way.

What I'm saying is I don't see any reason or function of the ROM itself that can be causing the battery life issue. Have you tried version 7.8? I haven't had any experience with anything below that, because that's the only one I've used. I'm just saying I've been pouring over this ROM with a fine tooth comb to customize it to my needs and I've encountered bugs here and there, but nothing that isn't able to be fixed.. I definitely haven't experienced the battery life issues (I regularly get 4+ hours of screen ON time, that's around 27-31 hours of phone time) between charges, which is a noted increase over any other ROM I've tried here.

I was just saying that it's more than likely not the ROM itself (at least not 7.8) causing these issues. I've heard of quite a number of people getting really bad battery life on v22 of Faux's kernel, I would try upgrading to the latest beta (the link is in the thread somewhere), I think I'm currently running v22b3 or something of that nature. Again, I have no experience with v22 because I've never used it...so if it's something in SpeedRom 7.5 or Faux's v22 kernel, that I could definitely believe. But in SpeedRom 7.8 running v22b3 (should probably check to see if there's an updated beta..) I don't see anything that could possibly be causing these issues. I've literally been examining the logcat inch by inch for every single thing I do, haha. The ringtone issue is definitely the ROM, but the fix I provided should definitely change that. The default HTC/Sense sound manager wasn't playing nice with a lot of the AOSP implementation.

--edit

Looks like there IS an updated beta of Faux's kernel from the v23b3. It's now v23b4, so that's good news! I know Bluetooth was broken in b3, so maybe b4 it's fixed! I will give it a flash and see what's up.

BTW, here's the link to obtain his latest Betas (Where v23b4 is located, too) http://faux.androidro.ms/ I've actually heard quite a few people comment that v22 had pretty terrible battery drain, so maybe that will help fix a lot of the issue in that department.
[HTC Amaze 4G] EclipzeRemix:
My battery always lasted a full day with my Rom, the trick is instead of playing games text the girl you like, if you get lucky enough then you will use your phone less and it will last more ;)
[HTC Amaze 4G] T.Treez:
Hahaha speak on it playa! I've gotten bomb battery life with this rom and previous versions...15 hours eaaasy with moderate usage
[HTC Amaze 4G] fidorulz:
Thanks for the info
[HTC Amaze 4G] ericdjobs:
If anyone is interested, I finally cracked the little problem of getting stock AOSP USB Connection dialogue/notifier, instead of relying on ANOTHER sense app to accomplish it (PCSC.apk)

If anyone else is interested I can post a zip you can flash or just straight up post the updated SystemUI.apk. No idea if it introduced any bugs (I honestly don't think it did, all the smali edits I did should pertain strictly to the status bar, specifically how the system handles and the events associated with plugging into a computer) I know some people prefer the Sense version because it does give more options, etc (HTC Sync, tethering, and internet pass-through capability straight from USB menu)... but I'm on a mission to remove absolutely everything HTC related, haha............

which is going to be ridiculously time consuming, because after looking at a lot of the decompiled smali, they hook into freaking everything, lol... hopefully it can just be bypassed.
