Just wondering how do i lower my bootsound its just really too loud...
[HTC Sensation] davebugyi:
Find the audio file on your phone (/data/local for me) open in a free audio editor tool (on a computer would be better) and lover the volume :)

Probably there is an other way, but I only used this one.
[General Questions and Answers] Burkejt1:
I am now running the Ivysaur sense 4.0 Rom which has been fantastic thus far and would like the use the Rezound Bios boot animation I have used previously, I was wondering what the process would be to use this or any other boot animation in lieu of the HTC One boot that is currently on it. If anyone could help me out on this that would be fantastic, I have done a few searches etc and can't seem to figure it out.

Thanks!
[General Questions and Answers] Tool-kit:
The Kernel you are running must support changing or flashing BootAnimation. Then get the zip files and flash the bootAnimation.
[Dell Streak 7] Wetzel402:
Hello everyone,

I am trying to create a CWM flashable zip that will disable the charge led. My wife hates the led shinning all night long on the bedside table.

Consider this a 1.0 version that does not work.

Any help correcting the zips would be greatly appreciated!

[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
You shouldnt be modifying /sys files in that manner, you should be echoing values into them via a script.

Unfortunately there's no particularly reliable way of execing scripts on boot,

not all the kernels have the init script or install-recovery.sh

Depending on the kernel you could plug the entries into that and have them feed values into /sys

Edit: /sys is a virtual filesystem, it gets built on boot at every boot. You cant write to it during recovery as it disappears when you reboot.
[Dell Streak 7] Wetzel402:
What would be a good kernel to try?

From what I gather I could for instance use a terminal emulator to change the value or I could modify the init script to apply the value at boot?
[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
It's not the kernel specifically, it's the ramdisk it includes.

Here's a quick rundown of how booting works:

Device is powered on -> bootloader starts loading kernel -> kernel loads ramdisk -> ramdisk scripts start loading android core -> boot time scripts and services are loaded

Dell devices have an init.device.post-boot.sh (or something along those lines), but a quick peek though the stock 5xx ramdisk shows that it's not enabled in it (I believe)

They also have flash-recovery.sh, but it might be missing in the HS kernels, so it's the same situtation.

I'd say the simplest way is to make them in scripts and just use a script pharser (like gscript) and load them that way.

Otherwise you would need ramdisk mods and reflash the kernel with the new ramdisk that lets you load more scripts at boot.

/data, /cache, and /system are mounted

/dev and /sys are spawned as they're virtual FS's containing telemetry from the kernel.
[Dell Streak 7] Wetzel402:
Thank you again for the useful information!

When you say "the stock 5xx ramdisk shows that it's not enabled in it (I believe)" does that mean that the init scripts are inaccessible after boot? I am working with the devs on getting Boot Manager working for the DS7 and we keep running into issues building the file system.
[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
The ramdisk has a whitelist of scripts to exec:

The init.<device>.post-boot.sh script was added by dell in most kernels, they simply didnt add it into the stock 5xx ramdisks as they didnt have anything to put into them apparently.

If you check init.<device>.rc or init.rc on "/", look for these two entries:

service streak-post-boot /system/bin/sh /system/etc/init.streak.post_boot.sh
user root
disabled
oneshot

and

on property:init.svc.bootanim=stopped
start streak-post-boot

As it demonstrates, it feeds /system/etc/init.streak.post_boot.sh to sh when the boot animation has completed.

But they removed those entries from the stock 5xx ramdisk, they're simply not there anymore.

It still loads /system/etc/install-recovery.sh, you could use that as it does get loaded by the stock kernel.

At least on my rom the file doesnt exist at all, so you could simply replace it.

But if you were to do that the right thing to do is simply have the user modify it themselves, if they already have one with things they added. (this isnt that likely though)
[Dell Streak 7] Wetzel402:
Thanks again TheManii!

I would be working on this but unfortunately my DS7 bent a pin so as of now it is out of commission :(

I have new connectors on order (10 pack was the minimum) so I am hoping to have it going again soon :)
[Dell Streak 7] Nocturnal_50:
why not just implement duct-tape over the light? low-tech solution to your high-tech approach
[Dell Streak 7] Wetzel402:
Because that wouldn't involve me learning to code, etc :)

Too bad it isn't a problem now anyway considering my DS7 is a goner....
[Dell Streak 7] Nocturnal_50:
check batterystats.bin, it might be related, didnt get a good look at it with my battery dying on the train home
[Dell Streak 7] Wetzel402:
I would but as I stated my DS7 took a dive. The charging port bent a pin and is now shot. A parts tablet on ebay maybe.... :(
[Dell Streak 7] Nocturnal_50:
How much would you want for parts?
[Dell Streak 7] Wetzel402:
PM sent
[Dell Streak 7] Nocturnal_50:
suggest removing block "# Eric Liu+" -> "# Eric Liu-" in init.rc might help those who are still using their S7.. the nexus7 probably stole the interest though
[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
Anything proceeded with a "#" is a comment and doesnt do anything

hi all

i'm flashing ICS on a friends Incredible S and am wondering if anyone can suggest the best ICS ROM, camera needs to work.
[HTC Incredible S] acme anvil:
Playground
[HTC Incredible S] forest-lee:
kaijura's "IceColdSandwich" can be a good choice

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1508435
[HTC Incredible S] manequin:

Playground is the only ICS rom with working camcorder. Ice Cold Sandwich is probably abandoned.
[HTC Incredible S] ipguy:
Tried them all

Ice cold sandwich really is the best

Thank!!!
[HTC Incredible S] nsordk:
First question would be, sense or no sence.

For Sense, I shortly tried Flash One, and it felt quite good, if you are a the sense type.

No Sense, Icecold has had slot of work done to it, but develipment has stopped. Playground is pretty new, feels food too and has a developer working.

I prefer having a ROM with ongoing developnent until we have one that actually finishes.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] spykedvodka:
Maybe I'm dumb, but I can't find the roaming control settings. I live in Mexico and cross everyday into the United States.

I need to turn my settings for roaming like this:

Domistic: Data & Voice

International: Only Voice

I also have the Call Guard on because it alerted me if I was "International" Roaming or just "Domestic" Roaming when I was going to answer a call....

I had the Epic 4G and had those controls as does my chick in the Photon.... is it because of having the Nexus? Is there a way or an app to get the settings back?

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nextass:
I'm running CM9 so it might/probably be different.

Go to settings, then hit the menu button (three dots)...there should be an option to click 'Data roaming' and 'Restrict background data'.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] spykedvodka:
Right but it doesn't give the option to block International Roaming while keeping active Domestic Roaming....

That's my problem. Living in the border city, I get some domestic roaming down here and I want that... its just the international roaming that I don't want to access. Every other Android phone i've had has that setting that differentiates.

The phone doesn't tell me when I am roaming domestically or internationally either. Do any custom roms address this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eyekyu:
sorry OP, but i also have a similar question... I'm using CM9 and I'm going to japan and i would like to only use my phone on wifi and disable all data. how would i do this
[Motorola Atrix 2] dk-v1:
Running Stock Rom (2.3.6 Rooted)

I've been using my Yahoo account on the stock EMail app since day one of having this phone. I've had no issues until a few hours ago.

"!" in a yellow triangle on my notification bar pops up saying, "Unable to Login/Login Failed." Sorry, can't remember the exact message.

I tried deleting the account and re-adding it, to no avail. I can login to my account via my computer and the actual Yahoo! Mail app.

But I do like the ability to have access to all my email accounts in one app.

Thanks,

DK
[Motorola Atrix 2] :
I answered this for someone else a week or two ago. There is no fixing it. I had this happen to me and i worked on it non stop for a day to get it fixed. I got so pissed i called Motorola. I usually never call about anything, i avoid doing that. Motorola don't even know how to fix it. You have to set up your Yahoo account with the default mail app manually. Google the settings for Yahoo pop mail. I don't know them off the top of my head plus mine is a att.net account that runs through Yahoo so it's probably different.
[Motorola Atrix 2] KEB64:
Just a shot in the dark here. Sometimes they change the email settings. Like server settings etc. Find out from Yahoo what your settings should be for your phone. If nothing you've done has changed this could be the issue. This happened to me with ATT about a month ago.

The End.
[Motorola Atrix 2] vinamilk:
Need to setup manually both incoming and outgoing servers.

Or you can try K9-mail.
[Motorola Atrix 2] dk-v1:
Always good to know...thanks for the replies.

I'll just go with the Yahoo!Mail app. It's really not a bad app anymore (used to be super slow).
[Motorola Atrix 2] :
I used to get horrible battery life with that app. It's been a year or so since i last used it so hopefully they fixed that by now.
[Motorola Atrix 2] dk-v1:
Back when the phone first came out I got the app for about an hour or so.

It was extremely slow and laggy. Haven't noticed any of that this time around.

Snappy, updates quickly, and has all the options (unlike the stock app).
[Motorola Atrix 2] bitmap:
These are the settings i use with built in email app.

Go to manual setup > IMAP account and change to these settings....

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Whoop5:
I tried to root my Xoom two months ago, unsuccessfully. Like many others, I had my Xoom serviced by Motorola due to the bricking. The Xoom works now, but i still want to run a different rom, preferably with less bloatware. Is the Xoom still rootable, or should I kick myself for asking?
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] okantomi:
It should still be rootable. You will probably need to oem unlock, install a custom recovery and then just flash a rooted rom. You will find them in the Development section. I recommend the configuration in my signature. Really simple that way.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Whoop5:
Edit: Nevermind, it's an MZ600. Just checked.
[HTC One S] LikeaG2root:
HTC allows us to unlock but does not allow total root capabilities.

What is the point of unlocking and losing warranty if the phone is not truly yours?

Love the One S LOTS! But why keep it if development will be hampered by HTC?

Not a Samsung fan but I guess it will be my next device. Maybe sooner than later if I can sell the One S or trade for a G-Nex.

Got the S cause of T-Mobile and want true aosp along with full root functions. Thought it would be no problem to get aosp but wow was I wrong! Sense sucks!

Thanks HTC for once again SUCKING! You are losing the ONES who truly love your devices!
[HTC One S] joshnichols189:
You seriously thought it would be easy to get AOSP on an HTC phone? That's where you went wrong.
[HTC One S] LikeaG2root:
Yeah aosp sucked on the HTC G1, HTC Nexus One, and my last phone,the HTC G2. Gee whatever gave me that idea?/ sarcasm/
[HTC One S] joshnichols189:
Hmm well maybe if you paid attention to recent trends and saw how hard it was to S-Off the vivid and rezound, you would have made a better purchasing decision.
[HTC One S] LikeaG2root:
Is the vivid and rezound now s- off?
[HTC One S] LikeaG2root:
Point is that HTC advertises that they are " developer friendly" which is total B.S.

They turn the knob for you but will not let you open the Fn door!
[HTC One S] joshnichols189:
I don't know, I think they have some insane hacking to get S-Off. I believe everything to achieve it on those devices has been patched. What I am trying to say is they have roms that are decent but it took them forever to get S-Off and their development was crippled by it.
[HTC One S] LikeaG2root:
Just sucks how HTC is half assing their support.

I will likely hold on and wait for some good news in the future.

Never, since using Android ,have I ever thought about giving up on HTC until now:(

399$ Nexus looking real good right now.
[HTC One S] joshnichols189:
Don't do it man, I had a galaxy nexus and I miss AOSP but Samsung makes some plastic ass phones. It'll get better in due time. The One S has an advantage over the One X and maybe the SGSIII in that the European model and US model are exactly the same.
[HTC One S] LikeaG2root:
I hear you man. I have always praised HTC build quality over Samsung.

I do agree that the S is better than the X. Phone is a BEAST. Just wish it was not handcuffed to Sense:(
[HTC One S] LikeaG2root:
For now the best I can do is keep using Black Dragon Rom which "looks" for the most part aosp.
[HTC One S] phin586:
Another wah-baby post... sad. I thought most people would realize it might be a couple of months before there is a fully functional and stable AOSP build. I did. Whatever.
[HTC One S] joshnichols189:
You are certainly not helping.

OP, how is AOSP on the G2? I saw it is basically fully functional and thought about getting one for a backup phone.
[HTC One S] LikeaG2root:
The G2 was awesome. Very large and very good development support for it since it is also the same as Desire Z.

Sold it after getting One S. I had ICS on it working good including camera. Gingerbread was lightning fast on it.
[HTC One S] LikeaG2root:
You are missing the point. Of course I did not expect huge development this early for the S. What you are missing is that the support my not get a chance due to HTC and HTC is misleading<which is what this thread is about.
[HTC One S] ajftl:
Why people like aosp. ****ing boring. Then u need a bunch of widgets cause the aosp widgets suck ass get the gnex I suggest u. Sense 4 rules
[HTC One S] LikeaG2root:
You get FULL CONTROL AND CHOICE with AOSP along with SPEED and FLUIDITY!
[HTC One S] joshnichols189:
You can get all of the Sense 4 widgets in one app.

OP, how is Black Dragon on your T-Mobile One S? Assuming you don't have the international one?
[HTC One S] LikeaG2root:
Very stable. Looks aosp for the most part using Apex launcher and themed status bar and notifications. Sense system menu still there along with keyboard,gallery, and camera.
[HTC One S] ajftl:
Not the same. I tried. Widgetspro its one of the beat ones.
[HTC One S] LikeaG2root:
Some screenshots...
[HTC One S] joshnichols189:
Android pro widgets does the job just fine. With skins.
[HTC One S] o0stryxs0o:
I don't understand yall. If you wanted AOSP why didn't you get a phone with AOSP? It would be different if HTC told you this phone had AOSP and then it had Sense... But we all knew it had sense. Sense 4 has been way better than others to me. Phone is still beasting everything in its class. I'm tired of people complaining just to complain.
[HTC One S] nickmv:
Your line "Phone is still beasting everything in its class." answers your question. This phone is kickass and fast as hell, so it's distressing to see that the community so far is small, and there's no work on AOSP roms. It's kind of expected if a phone gets kickass reviews and is a flagship device for a carrier, that someone's gonna get AOSP or CM roms onto it. I expected the One S to to almost as well as the One X, but unfortunately, its community seems a lot smaller.

I sure hope someone helps xkonni, or creates their own AOSP project. Sure would be nice to get some CM lovin goodness, or atleast free up some RAM and make things even smoother than they already are.
[HTC One S] LikeaG2root:
Reading comprehension is not very good in this forum. AGAIN...HTC is misleading one into thinking they are supporting devs. They are not allowing full root privilidges. I got this phone cause I like HTC and this phone is a beast.

Very simple...beast phone + full root= ecstatic HTC owner.

Funny how only sense lovers do not see the deception of HTC.
[HTC One S] aureleuz:
Agreed.
[HTC One S] FunkyELF:
I installed Black Dragon 4.0 and didn't have US English as an option, only UK.

I went and maps and "shared" a location via text message and saw that the link was to google.co.uk

Other than that things seem to work fine and by that I mean not any worse than the stock ROM. Speaker phone still doesn't work (horrible echo), Skype still doesn't work, etc.
[HTC One S] FRuiTBoOT:
I think if you want AOSP so bad you should have bought a GNEX. Kind of a dumb thread. Scammed? Really? Think about what the meaning of that word is and how "you" bought a phone. SMH.

Sent back in time to find Marty.
[HTC One S] Reviewers:
HTC didn't scam you.

If you feel you got scammed by them Sue them and tell us how far that gets you.

I 100% hate HTC Sense

I purchased the phone cause I wanted to test it and it changed a ton!
[HTC One S] Blackjack3d:
It's nice how easy it is to unlock the bootloader on this. I'm not too advanced in developing abilities or anything like that so I don't know why S-off is needed to get AOSP roms on. For now I'm enjoying Sense 4.0 and I don't think I would want to lose the sense camera app in an aosp rom. I think if I wanted an ICS look I would just use a launcher like Apex, at the minute I have absolutely no issues with the speed of the phone and can't imagine how it could perform any faster!

Just my opinion
[HTC One S] TrueGenome:
I feel like your complaints are at most...meh

HTC is actually a great company for even letting us unlock the hboot. We're now able to go in and load custom roms without waiting for a s-off solution. If anything your complaints seem a bit entitled and misinformed.
[HTC One S] aureleuz:
To be honest, the launcher has nothing to do with the fact at all. The reasons could be many for why people rather use an AOSP rom. In my personal opinion.. HTC just bloats the crap out of ICS and that's my biggest gripe with Sense. It's not about the look.

In addition all "Settings" and menus are far more nicer on stock ICS than Sense.
[HTC One S] Blackjack3d:
That's fair enough. When I had a sense 3.5 (I think) rom on my desire before I got this I felt it felt bloated. Sense 4 feels good to me but I understand where you are coming from. I'm sure when a stable fully featured aosp rom is released I'll give it a try because I'm a bit of a rom gypsy :p
[HTC One S] O0cynix0o:
The G2 could've been better... 800 MHz processor....weak in the ram department as well. And let's not even mention that damn Z hinge. It also reached "End of Life" in around 8 months. Still it was better then the MyTouch 4G.
[HTC One S] TramainM:
Um so many things wrong with statement. First HTC isn't hampering dev, look at the sensation. They have tons of dev. Any htc phone that you unlock will lose its warenty if their are any hardware malfunctions. However i messed up my phone and gave it back to tmo with an unlocked bootloader so. You should have read before you bought the phone.
[HTC One S] psych0t1c:
The statement about total loss of warranty on hardware issues because of unlocking is wrong. On a definate hardware problem you will still get the same service as a customer with an unlocked phone.

This has been HTC policy even before they started HTCDev, heard from quite a few people who sent in their device with S-OFF / modded SuperCID etc for repairs and had no issues.
[HTC One S] smb282:
Agreed completely...this phone has barely been commercially available in the US for 2 weeks! Let's give it a little time...and this is coming from a longtime HD2 homer. If I can wait, ANYONE can wait! In the meantime, I hung onto my HD2 (actually still have three of them, LAWL), so I still have something to play around with while I wait. And from a former Sense-hater, I'm actually diggin Sense 4 a bit...it's not the ugly duckfart the last few iterations have been, like dragging a rock around with your phone. The One S is lightning fast---I have no regrets!
[HTC One S] seangprice:
I would love to see an aosp rom but until then I'm enjoying sense. At least we don't have to deal with Touchwiz. This is an amazing phone, we don't have to deal with a closed device like Tegra based devices from Nvidia.. eg G2x. Just give it some time. It's been available for less than two weeks stateside from T-mobile so the community is still small.
[HTC One S] stankyou:
Hi. Here in my region, HTC only released the OneX and the OneV. Go figure.

via xda app
[HTC One S] LikeaG2root:
800mhz but it was the newest generation scorpion processor so it was like being clocked at 1 on other devices. Ram was not an issue, especially rooted. The z hinge? Who the hell is going to hold the phone by the edge of the screen letting the keyboard hang? G2 was a beast and still going strong in these xda forums.

[HTC One S] Daughain:
I've been running my G2 at a minimum of 1.5Ghz since about a week after I got it. The Scorpion proccy is an OC beast from the beginning. Currently running ICS with no problems at all. But, lest we forget, in the early days we had minimal dev work on it. I took a 6 month break from XDA, when I came back there was a ****load of new ROMs. Be patient and good things will come.
[HTC One S] TramainM:
Not quite, um i remember when my partitions somehow got wiped on the sensation. Yeah htc said my warenty was void. Now if you unlock your phone and its things like Paint chipping, or something to do with the body of the phone then you still get it; however, if you screw up something software related good luck. I'm not making incorrect statements I'm telling you my experience.
[HTC One S] ChristianFS1:
