To be fair to pressytcn, that's not stricly true. There are a number of ROM's in the Desire S forum that are multi platform. True this isnt one of them :)
[HTC Desire S] UmairAhmad:
Update?

Lowveld Is there any update coming? And If than what will be included in it?
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
:mad:

dude, don't quote the OP... Edit your post to remove it!
[HTC Desire S] dannyhoughton74:
If the only main change is HD media link is this a rush for an update necessary? Or is there other things in this update this people will want / need?
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
From the new things we noticed, it also fixes the issue with the missing lockscreen shortcuts, a few 'system enhancements', improved RAM, and audio quality.
[HTC Desire S] dannyhoughton74:
Thanks Oly, Although personally I haven't had any issues with missing lockscreen shortcuts since I performed the clean install. Memory issue resolution will be nice though

For me this ROM is almost perfect anyway as I don't use Wifi Hotspot, Would like to see touch to focus working, Other than that i'm not having a single issue with this ROM, It's the best built custom ROM i've used across all my previous devices (Thanks Lowveld)
[HTC Desire S] UmairAhmad:
Plus Camera Quality needs to be little bit tuned....plus lag in some apps
[HTC Desire S] dannyhoughton74:
I've not experience lag in "any" app since I performed clean install... admittedly that doesn't mean a great deal as we may be using completely different apps.. As for the camera is that not more of a hardware problem. In my opinion the camera quality on the Desire S has always been poor, Even when using the stock ROM before root!!
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
I beg to differ Oly. The stock Endymion camera is pretty good IMO for a phone in our price bracket. Of course i'm talking about daylight photography, and not low light shots. I am very happy with all Sense cameras prior to v4.

For Example if u open Messages it takes some more time than stock roms.... PLus Camera in Virtuous Saga with Sense 3.6 is better I think
[HTC Desire S] dannyhoughton74:
Personally I haven't noticed any issues with the SMS app, However I don't use stock, I prefer GO SMS and I keep message inbox virtually empty (no more than 100 or so)... never tried the virtuous saga ROM so can't comment on the camera quality there. Just looked in the build.prop and and the ro.media.enc.jpeg.quality lines have been changed already to the suggested in the below thread so not sure how much better if can get

[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
Camera pics are indeed poorer that GB roms, at least optimized ones, such as Endy.

Of course I tried the usual methods, but nothing seems to make a difference. The jpg compression is too aggressive, picture size is about 1/3 of Endy pictures.

I'm still trying to find where exatly is this setting being applied. Media_profiles.xml also does nothing, before someone suggests it.

I actually have a theory about this issue, and this compression may very well be built into the system. This "continuous shooting" thing, or whatever is called, is very write-intensive. It may very well be that HTC aggressively increased picture compression to reduce the file size so the function actually works. I can tell you that my Cannon DSLR would choke up if I kept taking pictures at that rate indefinitely.

Cheers
[HTC Desire S] dannyhoughton74:
Not sure what other people's thought are but I'd be prepared to forfeit continuous shooting in favour of better picture quality. Not sure whether others would be of the same opinion (Desire S was never supposed to have this feature anyway was it)
[HTC Desire S] UmairAhmad:
Lowveld What about Wireless Hotspot... Any Progress?

[HTC Desire S] kapybarus:
I think that camera zoom fx has bigger file size of photo. But not sure if they are better.
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Yeah, I think I agree with you... I will be prepared to, to get better quality pictures, and for auto-focus to work :)

Or in the camera app already, isn't there an option to choose between switching continous mode on/off?

So would it be possible to incorporate a feature where turning it off, leaves you with high quality pics like on Endy, and leaving it on, leaves it how it is now?

It's a pretty nice feature to show off, and it's 'key element' of Sense 4.0 :p
[HTC Desire S] UmairAhmad:
Guys what if we have Sense 3.6 camera in the fallout... I think we can ditch Sense 4.0 cam...
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Yeah, thought of that too, but I don't think it is possible, as you can't use different Sense components from different versions..

Desire S • Fallout V2.0.0 • xda premium
[HTC Desire S] jacmeister:
Yes I would be happy to have a better camera if it meant ditching the burst function
[HTC Desire S] Shamz84:
I totally agree. I would prefer a better camera.

I also wanted to know if anyone is have a problem with the screen resolution. Basically when I use the 4x1 super home in beautiful widgets the text seem squashed up. I've not had this problem before I'm assuming as the Rom thinks the phone is still the one v, which I think has a better screen res.
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
the one v has identical screen resolution which it's why we're able to run it's roms so easily, it just has a slightly better (newer) type of screen

[HTC Desire S] leimrey:
Help?

Guys, its been a week since i installed fallout and updated to v2 of this rom.

I have a problem in my camera, its force closing whenever i take pictures, from 2 to 5 shots, camera force closed.

Any remedy for this?

Thanks guys!
[HTC Desire S] 04kiran:
Go to camera options and UN check face detection(off)..
[HTC Desire S] leimrey:
I see, that's the problem.

Thanks!
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Found surrounding else the new base does:

It fixes the problem with the friendstream widgets and other loosing data and going blank...

I guess this new base is just bug fixes.

Desire S • Fallout V2.0.0 • xda premium

[HTC Desire S] zero5liters:
Awesome ROM. The first ICS that works for me.
[HTC Desire S] zyotty:
can anybody make a tabbed EQS for this ROM. i think the tab one is better. Thanks before
[HTC Desire S] dont know:
tap-to-focus

Seems that tap-to-focus IS working in htc.app.

face dedection off

continous shot off

double(!)-click to focus (the small "frame" is long GREEN) than take a photo - cam will focus to the double-clicked point after(!) pressing the shutter.

I cannot upload the pics from where I am. But it works:

one photo with focus at a font 20cm near me is sharp and background blurry

same photo with double-click-focus 4m away - the font in foreground is blurry and the picture on background is (nearly) sharp

Seems that one click only sets brightness. ("frame" is white - or only short green)

Wired thing is that re-focus/manual focus in Vignette is not working for me.

---------- Post added at 01:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:00 PM ----------

It is "tabbed" - click on provider to switch...
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
No, it still isn't working.

I think you are getting mixed up with auto-focus?

The camera can autofocus, but the touch-to-focus doesn't do anything.

And anyway, touch the screen should automatically focus, you shouldn't have to wait for the shutter release to then focus...

Desire S • Fallout V2.0.0 • xda premium
[HTC Desire S] zyotty:
No, tabbed lile sense 3.5/6
[HTC Desire S] dont know:
No - both, the font and the background picture where out of center. So I(!) decided which part was focused. So, I will call this tap-to-focus.

I didn't write that it is working perfect - or the way it should be. But double-click works as workaround for me. Just informed others about this.
[HTC Desire S] eyahl:
That's true.

When you tap on the screen, you'll see changes in brightness, ISO etc. immediately. And when you shoot the photo it will focus on what you tapped before. Works pretty good.

There is no difference between one tap on the screen and a double tap.

Look at my fingers :p

Btw. I have all that stuff enabled like continuous shooting etc

Edit: tried about 10 times now, works how I described and is reliable.
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Wow, this theory does work!

I took a picture of my keyboards enter button. The second one, I tapped to focus, and it did actually give a sharper image!

Desire S • Fallout V2.0.0 • xda premium
[HTC Desire S] burleanu:
As far I discovered that it can lose focus sometime, even if you indicate were to focus. To be more sure it will re-focus I am holding the shutter button. But to do so you have to turn of continuous shutting.

This way I have seen all the time the photo is focused correct.

Cheers!
[HTC Desire S] dont know:
Thanks - for my testings the one-klick didn't work reliable - sometimes did, but not really everytime. But perhaps I tapped to short or solar winds destroyed the focus or.. ;)

But you will know if it will not work: when the indicator frame is only white..
[HTC Desire S] shrome99:
Well, I would like tabbed EQS too, but lowveld doesn't like it himself, and it would take a LOT of coding. I tried to port it myself from scrosler's code, but failed due to lack of smali experience. Maybe lowveld could take a look at his code when making this for the new base, I've always preferred his version over j4n87's, since it has black toggles.

Sent from a device waiting for Kernel 3, WAKE UP HTC
[HTC Desire S] dont know:
For me this "quick settings are shown when no message available"-thing is perfect. If messages are available, it is possible to switch to the other "tab". What is the benefit in the 3.5 tab? I only see a disadvantage to klick the tab EVERY time when you want quick setings..

Weird thing happened today, plugged in my charger at about 50%. Led showed red light and battery icon started animating as it was charging.

An hour or two later I checked my phone, led and icon still indicating charge but battery level was still 50%?!?

Battery stats showed that the phone had been charging for a while but battery level did not increase.

Had to unplug and re-plug to get it to actually charge...

Anyone else experienced this?

Thanks lowveld, I have a request, if it's possible :D

On AOSP ICS ROMs, there is no limit to how many recent apps it can display...

But on this ROM, it is limited to 6 only :( (possibly due to the low RAM?)

Is there a way to 'unlock' this, and have more recent apps like on AOSP ROMs?

After being on a short trip to IceColdSandwich I'm back on Fallout (Fallout is way smoother imo.)

Last time I went from 1.3 to 1.4 to 2.0 with only cache/dalvik wipe.

This time I did a clean install of 2.0 and then added the quick setting icons (the fixed jpg-edition), with full wipe.

But I ran into a little problem with the date and time, in settings.

It keeps force closing on me.

(Before this started to happen I was able to uncheck the two clock options tho)

I tried to clear cache/dalvik but it didn't help.

Penny for your thoughts... :)

can you add desire support for your rom. thanks
[HTC Desire S] SoulReaver75:
Hi.

In the last months I wanted to update from gb to ics, but leaving Endymion was too difficult. More, other ICS roms had some problem with radio ora camera, so I stayed on Endymion.

During weekend I flashed fallout (thanks a lot lowveld!) and now I'm testing it.

First impression: veeeeeeeeery smooth! :)

I noticed few problems:

- this happened twice: I heard a sound, took a look to mobile, and it was rebooting

- yesterday I could not access sms. Doing a search would find results, but then when I tried to open the message... black. Rebooting solved the problem.

- I can't set a custom sound for notifications. I can select my sound, but when a sms arrives, default sound is played.

Beside these, I'm really happy now with a ICS sense 4 rom.

Thank you very much!
[HTC Desire S] Steinhund:
First never happened to me, maybe an app is causing a problem.

Second I had once. You can only reboot or wait some seconds. Don't know the reason but it never happened again.

The notification sound seems to be on purpose - the SMS ring is different from others. Change the sound directly via the app settings itself and all will be fine.

Gesendet von meinem HTC Desire S mit Tapatalk
[HTC Desire S] SoulReaver75:
I have the same apps that I had on Endymion, maybe someone is not fully compatible with ICS...

Thanks for the sms sound's tip. :)
[HTC Desire S] Steinhund:
Did your restore them via Titanium Backup? If yes this can cause some problems. It is a known issue since some Apps you had on GB can be not fully compatible with ICS.

It is recommended to install all apps from the play store. Its a little more work to do but I did and never had a single reboot.

Since I'm using the new radio that came with the leaked RUU that may be a solution, too. But Lowveld says that the rom works on all radios and hboots so this should not cause any reboot.

Cheers
[HTC Desire S] SoulReaver75:
Yes, I restored apps using titanium. Just apps + data, no system settings etc.

Then I updated all apps from play store.

Maybe some of them cannot be updated by the store... I will try to check in task manager which are opened and check if they are all updated.
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
My recommendation is not to restore any "data" from titanium when changing android versions, not just system data (that one should never be restored unless you know exactly what you're doing).

As for your issues, I never had a reboot. But the sms thing happened to me once, and it was not just the sms. When on the people widget, clicking any of the recent activities did nothing, sms and facebook included. At the time a reboot solved it. As I was constantly pushing changes to framework without rebooting for testing, I assumed it was from that, and I never had it again...

Cheers

P.S. About the update, I'm sorry but I have had some more pressing stuff. This is not forgotten, but neither it is on the top of my priority list...

[HTC Desire S] dr.higgins:
Edit: I don't know if this was it, but I checked the option to include (and format) the new partition, system/lib, in 4EXT. Then I did another full wipe/install, skipping the eye candy, just to be sure.

This time it worked! :)

It is how HTC was supposed to have built Sense 3.0 for the Desire S.

Haha, Hyperion was indeed the good days of the DS. It's the ROM that really got me addicted to flashing. Ah, I remember my complaints about the Honey HD look and annoying lowveld!

In fact, just a couple of weeks ago, I was reading the thread again, from the start. Half way through you announced your pet project - Endymion.

Lol, even I remember that quote. All Runny ports (Both Sense 3.5 and 3.6) except Endy were too slow to use, and had a weird bug in which WiFi kept on disconnecting.

Lowveld, I'm sorry if it was already mentioned and I missed it. Is there any change to implement trace in this Rom? I'm really missing it. That's the only thing keeping me away from using fallout. I don't even want it now, a few words that this could be done later would be enough, and I'll stick to swype for that time.

I can even live with the missing menu button on homescreen, now that I got used to it doesn't hurt that much anymore...;)
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
I'm currently looking into it. Apparently trace is included on the code, but disabled by default. Of course HTC as a long track record of leaving trash code behind, so even if I can figure out a way to enable it, no idea what will happen. (you should what I went through with endy trying to rotate Rosie, half the code was there, the other half nowhere to be seen).

Any reply is greatly appreciated!

I have a small request too - in the previous base, the HTC Flip clock actually showed the flip animation sometimes. Now its completely removed. Could you please add that too?

About friendstream - I read on one of the virtuous threads that they had to add some app from the One S to get the option. I'll tell you which one if i find that post.....
