Dude calm down it will be posted when it's ready. This is the second time you have asked in an hour
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dillalade:
I don't think its Hype at all.

I would have preference for a S4 dual A15 rather then a Quad core A9 like the Tegra3.

People seem to think 'oh it has 4 processors' that doesn't equate to better/faster/battery saving.

S4 is enough for my needs and is a nice jump up from the MT4GS, especially given the added MHL & NFC hardware. Its a major win, which your reluctant on, but I get that.

I do love my MT4GS, but I've grown to hate the fact we can't achieve 1080p on any rom other then stock. And also the tv out feature is pretty much a fail if not on stock equivalent roms either.

Each to there own.

On a related note, it would be nice to have this rom re packaged with all your new editions. Its very difficult to know you have everything cos there are so many updates flying about here.

:thumbup:
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
Hi! I need to test it further cause I don't want to distribute untested software to general public cause there might be flaws which might harm your device. I just compiled it 9 hours ago and I'd give it a day or 2 on my device first before releasing it.

Quite true but my real point here is on the test mt4gs can match up to latest devices when it comes to graphics. Since most say that the latest adreno outperforms the GPU from s3 chipset which is unlikely true based on the benchmark.

Regarding overall performance I am saying is with the mt4gs matching up as a runner up on the high end latest devices would you spend another $300 to $600+ for a new device?

And regarding features yes we can't avoid that but with that mindset you'd be having problem owning a device since almost like every few months a new feature gets introduced to newer device.

And about the video yeah sad to say that's a drawback but not all people is dying to have 1080p recording I for one don't mind having just a qhd recording as long as my video is clear enough for me to recognise what I'm recording ;)

so I'd say its about personal preferences.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
Feature-wise, the MT4GS has everything I need. ROM-wise, I'm still running a stock-based ROM (the Miktouch 0.4 with V6 Supercharge) simply because everything works without any glitches. I'm wanting to try one of the ICS roms, I never use video recording but I do use the hell out of my camera for photos. I also must have dependable wifi and bluetooth, and GPS. So a ROM that meets those criteria is attractive to me, but that's why I have so far stuck with stock-based. Too many "gotchas" with the alternatives, from what I've seen.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dillalade:
Not necessarily. MHL and NFC are the only h/w features I would be willing to upgrade for. Those are 2 heavyweight elements, allowing to distribute the droid onto todays highest possible screen (aka HDMI) & to communicate with peripherals wirelessly (NFC - which itself will change the way many operations work across many industries.)

But I can see how you'd summize one may have a hard time keeping one phone for long enough without the urge to jump ship to the next best thing.

On this occasion, the Relay accumulates a host of great attributes which encourage me to go with it because the all round spec adheres to pretty much all I've been seeking from a qwerty (great cpu, mhl, nfc.)

As we've said, its completely a personal preference over our existing qwerty of choice.

Sorry for off topic.

End of line :rolleyes:

I have some feedback from a close friend regarding 1080p....

I'm posting here because this seems to be the most active rom currently...

I asked...

"Hey dude,

Was just doing some research on behalf of the 'devs' for a very similar device to sensation, the mytouch 4g slide.

Was wondering if there's any insight in what to do/look at to achieve the 'hacked' 1080p recording fix you have managed to resolve ;)

Any advice would be so greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance"

Response =

"Commit 8604ae6ab0d81ca654d663cb889f497219181a31 in our android_frameworks_base repo :)"

Not expecting much, but perhaps one of you devs here can give it a go?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
thanks! Will have a look on that :good:

but what repo is that? Could you post the link?

Edit: found it and argh! It's a linux library I can't fix that since we don't have framework sources from HTC.

But are you really sure it's the cause of the error? The fix was to allow the camera to record framerates not equal to 30fps/sec. Anyways I'm gonna debug it and if I confirm that it's indeed the fix then I'll find a workaround.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
Ok another update. Hate to spoil the fun but nope the problem with sensation and our devices are different. Maybe theirs are related with frames but ours are with frame sizes.

I have managed to get 1080p working weeks ago when I was still using MikXE. But sad to say the video it outputs is corrupt.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dillalade:
Nice try dude.

Your wright, the dev just said there issue was indeed a framrate issue.

Shame. But worth investigating.

Cheers
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
OK, if I flash the VI 1.35 Beta 1, what else do I need to flash, in order, to have the latest and most stable working version of this ROM? Would I be better off flashing one of the other ICS ROMs? Note, I don't really care about 1080p video, I rarely use video. I do use the camera for photos, and I absolutely must have dependable wifi, bluetooth, and GPS. I also use the music app and headphones with a mic extensively. I don't play games. I'm downloading sun_dream's latest release, have the MikXE ROM and the VI 1.35Beta 1 ROM. But, after reading through all the posts, there are so many patches and tweaks to flash or copy, I'm confused as to what is needed for what.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] butch87402:
I'd go with sun dream then place the audio patch in his op in the upgrade fold you'll have to make then perfect I believe he already had riyal ffc kernel and fix in the rom
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
I did that. The ROM looks and runs beautifully, but then I have no sound using headphones. I tried everything I could think of, rebooting, resetting permissions, I did apply the patch as noted. But, when using my good earphones there is no sound at all. Put in a pair of cheap earphones and there is sound, but put in my good ones and there is nothing. That's just unacceptable. So, I'm back to a stock-based ROM because everything at least works.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] rorytmeadows:
Must be a hard pill to swallow, going back to Gingerbread. I think that in spite of a perfect ROM, I'm still sticking with at least ICS because of the pill.

I have been able to keep everything stable as I ramp up my number of apps and settings with this ROM. It periodically gets super laggy, but it usually irons out by itself or after a reboot. I have been disciplined on the task killer apps (be proud, Strapped!) As I haven't really needed them quite yet.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
Task killers & RAM Managers are a no go. They'll just make your phone very laggy due to some apps restarting when killed(I call them the undead apps :D)

I suggest you download instead startup managers since they just disable autostart of some programs you choose.

I use system tuner pro it's an all in one toolkit for power users :good:
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
Guys anybody noticed a battery drain when using skins? I tried using the Matte skin and noticed that my battery discharge rate went a little bit fast.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] rorytmeadows:
Ohhhh I like it. It will take me a bit to learn but that the fun, isn't it? Thanks!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] fozzy501:
Yup same problem here
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Ninj:
As someone said here, it's hard to follow the flow of your great job. An updated rom or an all-in-one zip would rock ;)

Since the phone can be waken up by the camera button (in Virtuous options) i guess it's not too hard to start the camera app just after.

Indeed i figured that out later.

Thanks for the tips! :)

Problems after installing virtuous infinity

After installing the newest Virtuous Infinity (although I'm not 100% sure if it is related to the rom), things were great.

After 3 or 4 days though, I woke up to my phone not responding. It almost seems as if the phone processor is running at 1/8th the speed. The touch screen doesn't seem to respond very fast, in fact, I can never get past the lock screen because it does not take my input in properly.

When I try to boot into Clockwork, the phone is stuck with only the clockwork icon there, and any key stroke will cause the phone to reboot again.

When I try to boot into the bootloader, the phone will either freeze and require a battery pull, or this image will come up ->

http://imgur.com/2zHLH

Therefore, when I hook up via USB, I cannot use fastboot to reflash the phone, since it seems to be stuck at that point on bootloader.

Any clue what's broken?? Is there a way to restore factory settings to Virtuous Infinity via ADB? I cannot get into recovery visually, but I do have adb commands available to me in the clockwork mod recovery page.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
If you just want a factory reset and have adb commands you could just do this...

rm -r /data/* /cache/*

then reboot
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] edilber:
(Virtuous tweaks)

remove options panel (Virtuous tweaks)

this rom is a big job, but I think that the panel tweaks, steals htc style originality.

would be nice if the tweaks out as an app, allows you to save your settings and then uninstalled ....

:rolleyes:
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
I attached an all in one zip but it got lost in a matter of days in the older pages lol :D sorry can't do anything as I'm not the author of this thread.

I also tried contacting tbalden & chrisch1974 but they seem to ignore PMs of people not familiar with them so can't ask them to provide an OTA also.

Hard for me probably not for them :D as far as my knowledge goes you should modify android.policy.jar & probably framework.jar to implement that thing. Same goes with caps & alt light on keyboard.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] n3rdftw:
I am encountering permissions issues ....

After do the rm, I get this error, even when I try to run it with su

"rm failed for /data/DxDrm, Permission denied"
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] fozzy501:
My OTA updater app doesnt work.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
If it's only DxDrm then just ignore it and reboot

As far as I know it's mounted that's why you can't delete it.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] n3rdftw:
hmm, thanks! however, it seems like the wipe did not resolve my issues, any other troubleshooting steps?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
Have you tried booting the device in safemode?

I'm not sure how it is done on mt4gs but on my Xperia Phone it is done by press & holding the back button when the 1st bootscreen shows up.

I'm sure it should be similar in every android device it's just I don't know which hardware button to press.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] edilber:
please

Friends there any fix for the front camera in landscape, leaving the problem is reversed.

if anyone knows the solution would be very grateful.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
There is... Just use the kernel I precompiled for virtuous infinity and it should fix your problem.

:( this question keeps repeating day after day how I hope tbalden at least update the 1st page and add everything.

http://50.56.186.177/patch/Unofficial Patch.zip
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] pantheis:
Riyal,

Is this the "all-in-one" patch you talked about earlier? And if so, what base OS do I need to flash first? The 1.33 Alpha 3? or the 1.35? If the 1.35 version, where do you get that? I've been unable to find it on the VI website.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
That's the one!

And for those of you that have been wondering about them all in case there were only a couple you needed, I've gathered them all up & posted them to my MIRROR THREAD @ post #3 along with the description that Riyal posted with them throughout this thread. (as well as a little adlibbing by me) If I have overlooked any, someone let me know & they will be included.

(I could be wrong and it probably doesn't even matter but I believe everything is based off of the 1.35 Beta 1.0 update)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] edilber:
thanks

Thanks for everything.

my device is s-on, I started to read pages soluciuon past and found everything. thank you very much again.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Ninj:
How to make sure about the 1.35 BEta 1.0? I guess it's better not to mess up with that...
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
Well, I guess I could be more specific. All of the full updates were specified by the Virtuous Team to do full wipes before flashing. That goes for this last one that took it to Beta. BUT, there was also an OTA of this last release that was made specifically for flashing over the top of the 1.33 Alpha 3 that came before it. That is the one I have on my "Mirror" page and that's the one several of us have used with no issues. But all these patches weren't put together until that last update was released. I "assume" that they will all work fine with the previous release since it was only 18mb but I just can't prove it absolutely. That's really what I mean. They all came after the last release but very well may work before it's applied.

The last update fixes so much tho, I can't imagine not flashing it first.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
for those of you looking for the full 1.35 beta1 ROM here it is directly from virtuous site.

I've noticed a bug with the enhancer patch. everytime im on the phone and turn the volume up r down . the phone just restarts its self any help

?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
use the 1st one instead of the 2nd.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] fozzy501:
Where is the 1st one?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
It's just a page or two ahead of the 2nd one. If you were looking on my mirror page it the one list as headphonefix.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
As he said :D

Anyways chrisch1974 already got my message and is already planning on releasing a new version soon with all the fixes I added. So either wait or enjoy the hunt of the lost zip files in this thread :p

@OT

I missed seeing my 400th thanks lol it's 401 now
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] CJ_:
hmm.. If 1.35 beta is available, when I click "download latest version" on Virtuous' official website, why does it link me to 1.33 alpha?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
Look HERE for that update.

---------- Post added at 12:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:50 AM ----------

I got really familiar with it again looking for all your fixes! LMAO

(Keep it up & you'll be 500+ before you know it, Mr. Fix-it) ;)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
Not anytime soon :) unless I jump in into a device with a swarm of users like GSIII
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] CJ_:
Thanks mate. Noob alert.

I'm currently on:

Android version: 4.0.3

Baseband version 10.48.9007.00U etc etc

Kernel 2.6.35.14-cyanogenmod etc

How do I go about doing a clean install of this rom? Does anything need to be updated?l or do I just perform a full wipe and install the rom?

Edit - I should add that I've done a fair bit of research before asking for assistance on here (if one of you decides to have a go at me for not doing sufficient research). I've read a fair bit on flashing, kernel, hboot, recovery etc etc etc that my head is all messed up and I'm back to square one.

Thanks
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
For a clean install of all ROMS this is the steps I follow

Reboot into recovery

Select mounts and storage

Format system

Format SD-EXT if using EXT if not skip

Format data

Format cache

*head back to main recovery menu*

Select wipe data/factory reset

*go to advanced*

Wipe dalvik cache

*Flash the new ROM*

If you are s-on unlocked, after doing all that good stuff open a command prompt and navigate to where fastboot is and drop the boot.img from the ROM you just flashed into that folder, type adb reboot bootloader and select fastboot usb, then type fastboot flash boot boot.img and once that's done type fastboot reboot.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] CJ_:
Thanks strapped. Will report back when complete.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
And to be honest I may be on dream street lol......my eyes are heavy, but ill try to stay up to know if you booted or not
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] CJ_:
Quick one - If I "Format-EXT", which I'm guessing means format the external SD, how do I flash the rom because it will be on the ext SD which I have just formatted?

Nah mate, don't stay up for me. I'll be a while. You can check in tomorrow. Cheers though!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
SD-EXT refers to an ext partition. Don't format the sdcard as you won't be able to flash.

Some users have an ext for an a2sd ROM, like I have a 2GB partition on my sd and when I run a2sd that's where the apps go so it needs wiped. From the sound of your post your not sure what an ext is so just skip it as I'm sure you don't have one
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] edilber:
work Media Link HD ?

Has anyone been able to verify if it actually works the Media Link HD?

If someone has done, show a video would be good.

And comment on your compatibility experience
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] CJ_:
Thanks Strapped. I haven't partitioned my SD, so I'll give that step a miss. If, however, I want a clean state (sd card) and want to start from scratch, should I format the memory card first and then copy the virtuous rom on to it before I flash it?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
1 golden rule with flashing is...

When you're flashing a ROM through CWM no matter what device you have never ever format the sdcard.

It is best to imagine that

is not in the options list as it's not really good to use it. If you want you could go format it through your PC instead since you would have the freedom of choosing what type of partition you want your sdcard to be and some memory allocation options.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] CJ_:
Thanks Riyal, just as I thought. I'll format it through the pc instead. Now to get to work on this bad boy!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
A word of caution with the enhancer patch (the first one). It does solve the volume and earphone issues, however, if you try to use any app that records audio it will cause the phone to reboot instantly. I didn't learn that until after, nobody mentioned that little problem so I wasted two days with this.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
Yeah I had the reboot issue too, after I used the second patch= back on track, and you know me man my phones got to work its my lifeline, its how I call for parts for trucks and its how my boss contacts me all day :cool:
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] mattlowry:
when you wipe data/factory reset doesnt it format system, data, and cache for you?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
Yes it does. But I have had 0 bad installs doing it this way. In my past 2 years messing with cwm its been proved that manually wiping system/data/cache works better than a factory reset. On all my devices its been like that, the ONLY reason I choose wipe data/factory reset is to wipe android secure folder.

These are just my wipe and flash steps, you don't have to follow them or even agree with them, but through all my posts never did I have a bad install, and I've been around the block more times than many
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
So you flash the first equalizer patch, it causes the reboot bug, but then flashing the second equalizer patch resolves that bug (and still keeps the fix for the earphones that the first patch solves?)?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
For me yes. But every device is different
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
Thats the way it worked for me too.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
Then what happens after that? Does the 2nd patch cause it to molest the cat, thus needing a 3rd patch? :p

I do appreciate the work and efforts made, but I do wish for better documentation. :)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] CJ_:
Thanks for your help Strapped and Riyal. I'm all sorted now :) Everything I've tried so far works.

After reading the last few posts, maybe I should try the equaliser...

---------- Post added at 09:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:12 AM ----------

heh... so the equaliser is missing. Instead, I have the option to turn "beats audio" on or off. Time to go searching for the patches.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
:D the first patch was buggy and the 2nd patch was made to fix that bug so the best answer for that is yes for the 2nd patch.

I made an all in one patchable zip here which doesn't have bugs I wonder why everyone keeps trying the old hard way lol :D
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
Well, it's kinda hard to say Riyal. I put them all up on my mirror site. But it may be as simple as "one from column A or 6 from column B". Just seems like you getting more "fix" for your money. LOL ;)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
Yep! And thanks for that :D Anyways maybe we should rename that equalizerpatch into a headsetpatch instead just so people wouldn't accidentally flash it by mistake :p

Anyways that was made purely for people with broken headset on virtuous infinity ROMs. I made that cause I thought everybody's headset was broken when mine was a long ago. ;)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] CJ_:
Hi there, found a bug where scrolling through text messages isn't easy. To be more specific, when I go into text messages and select a contact to view text messages sent between him/her and I, scrolling is hard because 9/10 times, when I try to scroll, it selects the text and brings up options rather than scrolling. Anyone else face this issue?

Edit - It seems to scroll when I flick my finger across the screen super fast but if I do it slow, it will bring up the options for the selected text. Can this be altered?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
Go back to your homescreen then open & close homescreen editor 2 times and fixed! :D

It's a common bug since sense 4.0 doesn't fully support our devices. This is the reason why htc doesn't implement sense 4.0 on some devices even if they upgraded it to ICS.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] CJ_:
Thanks Riyal. I don't mind a couple of bugs. Overall this rom is fantastic :) Appreciate the work everyone has put in!!!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
I did. I renamed the first one to "Sound Enhancement Patch" & the 2nd one to "Headphone Issue Patch". (I kinda saw this coming myself....)

Anyone know how to install eReader,?

I really like this app I had before in my old rom.

I wanted to carry it by root explorer but I get error when trying to open.
