Well....open mouth, insert foot! I knew there would be one and it just happens to be one I don't use much. Thanks for the info, buddy. :good:

My keyboard backlighting was working although it didn't stay activated long with no touch sensing from my fingertips. If I were you I would wipe everything except the "factory reset/user data" and reflash over the top of the ROM again. If S-On , reflash boot.img too. Just in case.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] sun_dream:
Oh, I use the Virtuous kernel to build new ROM, personal use:)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
Thanks! Now I understand why it's 4.0.4 :)

Anyways could you also try

cat /sys/class/power_supply/battery/full_bat

on adb or terminal? I'd like to see that value after applying the batt fix. :)

And also the type of battery you're using as I will be comparing both. Thanks!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
Ok confirmed! sun_dream's battery fix indeed worked my '

/sys/class/power_supply/battery/full_bat

already reports 1580 which is correct. I hope the author of this rom creates another with all these fixes. There's already a handful of major changelogs he can add enough to make a new version.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
Should we apply the Virtuous kernel AND the patch or will the battery fix be fine with the kernel that is included with this ROM?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] mattlowry:
just a guess but the kernel in this rom is the virtuous kernel
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
The kernel doesn't have anything to do with the battery problem. Flashing the fix alone would resolve the issue :)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
I wondered about that but don't have it running at the moment.

---------- Post added at 11:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:23 AM ----------

Now THAT'S some news I've been waiting to hear!! This battery thing has been my single biggest complaint. Now....if Team Virtuous straightens out the wifi calling issue this time around what a ROM this will be!!! Thanks for that clarification Riyal.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
Yeah same for me the battery problem was the most biggest problem for me since I'm scared I might end up having a brick phone after weeks of using the ROM. But thanks to sun_dream my worries is now gone :victory:

I jump too advanced in investigating the problem. I wasn't really expecting a binary file could have affected this. Lesson learned :p
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
When we stop learning we've stopped living Bro. It's certainly nice to have you around.:good:
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dillalade:
Is anyone here capable of repacking this rom with all these legendary fixes?

Unofficially of course.

I would like to give this a try.

If not, then perhaps a comprehensive list of what EXACTLY (versions and all) I need to flash, and in any specific order?

Thanks in advance guys
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] jdmboy1188:
Can i flash this battery fix even if im on S-On?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
If you will go HERE to post #3 the first 3 flashes will be listed in order. The rest are below but in no particular order I am aware of.....

I've added the equalizer patches but you'll want to read up on those in the thread to see if they even apply to you. And of course the alternate kernel, which some have had better luck with than others. Just do a nandroid after the first 3 flashes and play around. Good Luck!

OH....almost forgot. The Battery Fix is a MUST! Make that one your 4th flash before you do your nandroid.

Dang it:eek:....and the camera. You'll have to push that one to system/apps or copy it there with a file manager. It's worth it though. REALLY expands the camera usability, IMHO.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] mattlowry:
wifi calling?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
@WeekendsR2Short

What's with the camera patch? :D
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
Is there a wifi calling fix I overlooked somewhere Matt?

The camera isn't really a flashable. (sorry about that) You have to extract the Camera.apk from the .zip and then just apply it to the app directory. It will replace the one that comes with the ROM if you don't rename that one first but it has some other features tha I think make it better. You COULD rename it in a way that they will both show up & compare them though. I believe it was Mattlowry that found that one ....but don't quote me on that.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] mattlowry:
i posted the gan optimizer app that you push to system apps and poof wifi calling works even when screen goes black. i will repost.

note: still need to flash the wifi calling patch
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
Man o Man....I completely forgot about that one and for some reason I didn't have it saved to My Infinity folder! Thanks Buddy!!! I'll COPY it this time instead of MOVE it. LOL :laugh: :good:

(btw....worked like a charm too)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] mattlowry:
i havent used cm9 or paranoid android in a while so if they have the same issue it should work for them also
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
FANTASTIC!! Thanks again. I'll resave it as a general CM9 fix too then.:good:
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] mattlowry:
now i am curious as to why i am not getting the bugs everyone else seems to have. charging bug: my phone charges to 100% everyday with no issues. maybe because i am on stock battery and everyone is on third party? headphone with mic bug: i have only tested 1 pair (mytouch branded from mt4g) but they work amazingly well. maybe because i flashed the awesome beats mod?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
mic is working with me. The only bug I experienced is the battery bug which was resolved now. and I'm also on stock battery. Still waiting for my mugen to arrive :)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
The wifi calling bug & the battery bug were the only REAL ones hanging out there for me. Thanks to you guys (and everyone else for their efforts) I now have another EXCELLANT ROM that I can fall back on!! KUDOS GUYS!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] mattlowry:
well people were saying that when they plugged in a pair of headphones that had a mic they got no sound out of their headphones but mine worked great
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
Me too & I'm using a 8 year old pair that came with my Crackberry. I AM running Awesome Beats as well if that has anything to do with it.....
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] mattlowry:
Sense 4.5 cam

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1867966

just installed this camera mod. works pretty well. sense 4.5 camera. use a file explorer to push to system apps to replace original camera app. fix permissions and viola!! just like 4.1 there is no touch to focus but will focus when pic is snapped.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dillalade:
Thanks all, gonna give this a go.

:thumbup:
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
I was one of those people but when I bought an original headphone for mytouch 4g slide it solved the problem. Seems like virtuous infinity is too picky on 3rd party headphones.

I managed to resolved the headphone issue on my 1st equalizer patch. But when I got the original headphone I revert it back to original and it worked.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
You're going to like it with all these things getting patched now.:good:
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] fozzy501:
Wats the euilizer patches for? And the alt kernel wats it for?

---------- Post added at 02:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:34 AM ----------

Is it a different kernel than the one that came with the rom?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
Regarding the equalizer refer to this thread for info

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1847205

I repacked & modified it to work with doubleshot version of virtuous infinity.

Regarding kernel I'm not sure but if that's the one I compiled then I just added some tweaks and additional features.

1. Undervolting support

2. Swap

3. zram

4. Additional filesystems support

5. And some stuffs I forgot already :D Sorry just compiled it out of the box didn't bother using git.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] fozzy501:
So beats audio onle works wen headphones are one?

---------- Post added at 03:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:13 AM ----------

I installed the new kernel. And my wifi stopped working ..any help?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
Haven't looked at the zip file available here but on the flashable zip I uploaded there should be wifi modules included to replace the existing ones to make wifi work.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] fozzy501:
Where are the modules? And how do i use them/ apply them?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
Ok just download the kernel attached in this thread and flash it using CWM. don't extract and fastboot
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] fozzy501:
Okay so just go to recovery mode and flash it? I installed the stock boot.img the one that came from the room should i flash this rom thru fastboot then apply via CWM?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
If you're S-On yes.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dillalade:
Dude I flashed in the order you said and got a bootloop which wouldn't go past my splash screen.

So rewiped everything and just install 1.33 alpha 3 rom and rebooted, again stuck in a bootloop.

I'm s-off.

Weird :(
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
I just can NOT explain that one! I'm so sorry it gave you a big issue like that. I had the 1.33 ver. installed and then flashed the OTA 1.35 right over the top of it and it worked just great for me. It sounds like most everyone else too. I'll admit I never flashed the patched browser but I use Dolphin anyway so I didn't bother. There WAS a sound issue for most people although I didn't seem to have it. But Riyal discovered a repair for that and a workaround for third party headphones with mics that was popping up for most people.

The BIGGEST thing that bugged almost everyone was the horrible battery cycling and false readings. Riyal found that issue as well and patched that one too. Everything that's been introduced that I've HAD to use has worked GREAT.....for me. I just REALLY can't comprehend what went wrong for you....but I'm very sorry to hear it. It's honestly a GREAT ROM....especially for a 1st Beta release.:confused:

The ONLY thing I can think of is perhaps there was an issue with the alternate kernel that caused your problems. You might give it a go again but with only the supplied kernel. Sorry!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
So this morning i did a fresh flash of 1.35 beta. Manually wiped system/data/cache wiped dalvik and wipe data/factory reset. Let it boot in and settle for about 15 minutes, then i rebooted to recovery wiped cache and dalvik and flashed the kernel, eq1 zip and the battery fix.

The issue im having is when im on a call, and i turn speakerphone on it reboots the phone. It also does it if i plug my Apple headphones in while on a call. Can anyone else verify this? Ill post a logcat in this post in a little while if no one else see this

*edit*

So i called the local weather number and tried again and again and it didnt happen. It appears to only happen calling my girl, and id rather not post a logcat of that incase* a number is shown in there.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
You flashed the full 1.35 Beta or the OTA 1.35 Update? I've not done the full ROM yet & haven't seen those issues Strapped. Could there be a problem with the download or even an error while compiling the full ROM that would account for the difference?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
@strapped

Flash equalizerv2 as it was made to resolve that specific issue.

It is caused by audio.primary.default.so when an incompatible audio hardware initiates recording mode.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
Thanks man, i had to go back to MikXE for a few things, so when im back on VI ill remember that.

Ive setup folders on my sdcard for various ROMS/mods so ill have everything i need. Thanks to weekends for the idea :thumbup:
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
hehehehe Just because I'm an old dog doesn't mean I can remember a few of my tricks.;)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
And ohh by the way strapped if you're interested in fixing the auto mount issue on your rom without using dualmount sd try this for a fix. :)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
DANG Riyal....I'm going to have to start calling you Mr. Fixit!! THANK YOU!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
LOL! :D Can't even fix my own phone's problem. Never thought I'd have problems looking for a housing part replacement. :D

Anyways new bug I found is video recording on front cam is inverted. Will try fixing this also.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
Will let you know in bout 10 minutes thanks man

*edit*

After pushing the apk and rebooting nothing changed. Thanks though
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
Oh.. Sorry I guess it's not compatible with sense 3.6 :( Will look for one soon and try since I'm also a fan of your mikXE. :p
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
I actually like dual mount. The fact that I can transfer things while still jamming what's on my SD card. Weird I know but, I think its cool the computer can read the SD at the same time my phone is
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] fozzy501:
wen i make a call or get one, speaker option doesn't work,any help?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
New fix later or tomorrow.

Bug: Front Face Camera inverted - Fixed
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] K7Cobb:
THANK YOU!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
Front facing camera fix + Kernel update

Ok! As promised here's the inverted camera fix.

Changelog

*All the patches I made from the 1st kernel I compiled.

*Fix for the inverted front camera

*Kernel update from 3.0.16 to 3.0.17

Will slowly patch the kernel with my kernel patches (From Xperia Pro kernel) + incremental updates of the 3.0 kernel ;) Hope you enjoy it!

Credits to strapped365 without his MikXE ROM I wouldn't be motivated on upgrading my doubleshot to ICS(I got this doubleshot only because my Xperia Pro got broken and was sent for warranty repair but I was not originally planning on developing for this device :p ).

And to chrisch1974, tbalden & others who made virtuous infinity ROM.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Emmanuel U:
damn son nice work :)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
I'm very sorry to hear that you had to lose "your baby" to finally find your way here but you have yourself a pretty hot little device right there and in the end, the Xperia's threads are our's & the DoubleShot's gain. IMHO, you've picked up enough outstanding odds and ends on this particular ROM to qualify it for an Official Release v1.0. It sure is nice to have you aboard, Mr. Fix-it! ;) :good:
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
With all the available patches and mods, this ROM desperately needs to be repackaged to include everything. It has become way too complicated to get a working ROM on this... go here for this patch, go there for that patch, download this if you want that, etc.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] sun_dream:
Very good. And fixed the headset compatibility
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
Thanks guys! :D
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Coug76:
That or somehow bundling together a super patch that includes all of the fixes at once.

Hastily spouted for your befuddlement
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] bit1:
For those wondering this worked just fine on my camera. still no 1080p video but everything else worked just fine. I used Root Explorer to just copy the camera apk and paste into system/app just as listed above after mounting system as r/w. Seems to work just fine. Thanks for the tip poster! I second that it seems to work pretty well
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] rorytmeadows:
Flashed this ROM today. Smooth as I Can't Believe It's Not Butter.

Love the tweaks.

Anyone else having problems adding the Wifi or Bluetooth toggle widgets? I press them in the widget browser but nothing gets added. Other toggle widgets add just fine.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
+1 to this bug

Just noticed this :(
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] rorytmeadows:
Any way to get the backlit keyboard going? Just buchered a work email because of it!:p
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] CoNsPiRiSiZe:
I had success with Tasker on older ICS ROMs that didn't have backlight support by creating a task that whenever the hw kb is out the lights were on!

Other than that.. I am not sure how else to fix it.

::Respect::
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
Please elaborate this issue? I don't seem to encounter any problems with regards to hardware keyboard & backlight.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] CoNsPiRiSiZe:
I didn't have the issue while using this ROM. But he seems to be saying that when he opens his KB up the lights aren't on so he can't see what key is what in the dark.

::Respect::
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] sun_dream:
I think the problem is caused by the hboot too old
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
This bug... Fixed :good: :p

Just replace the one in /system/app/ and reboot.

Sorry no flashable zip this time I'm just online on my phone.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dillalade:
Riyal please can you re pack all these fixes into one flashable ROM.

I want to try but there are so many fixes.

Would be so much appreciated, if worried of not wanting to step on Tbaldan/Virtuous's feet, then perhaps supplying it to those interested via PM.

Really wanna try
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
Ok will do as soon as I get to a PC(unless someone who knows how will do it :D)

I think packaging it to a single flashable zip would be ok with virtuous team since it's not an official release anyways and they're more than welcome to pick the fixes and include it on an update if they wanted to. I made this fixes for my own benefit it's just I'm sharing it to everyone :laugh:
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
Mr. Fix-It Strikes Again! ;) Way to go Riyal! You FIX stuff quicker than I can even find the problem! :good:

Thank You Kind Sir!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
I think he should just release a ROM lol.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dillalade:
Great, this will be a great maneuver.

Thanks in advance for your efforts :thumbup:
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
Would like to but I find it really hard lol believe me I tried and failed :laugh: sun_dream is trying to help me :fingers-crossed:

Anyways almost forgot this one... The kernel patches

*upgrade from 3.0.16 to 3.0.17

*upgrade from 3.0.17 to semi-3.0.18(haven't finished yet)

*Inverted front facing camera fix
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
Well I see how much support you offer this ROM so I might as well throw my whole folder of fixes together and see how all this stuff goes. I have been missing Sense like crazy, I was on MikXE the other day and went 1 day 8 hours no charge, then I went back to cm9 and I'm dead in the water after 16 hours, could be the nand could be something else who knows :D
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
I've been thinking the very same thing! I saw that he "says" he's tried but I think he's just wanting to release a perfect one. If he'd just put one out that works FAIR, I'm sure that he'd have everything patched in 4 or 5 days. LOL
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
so in the new kernel the 3.17 with the fixes, does the addon folder get added to system/lib/modules as a whole folder or should each module be placed there without the addon folder
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] rorytmeadows:
Awesome! Works!

Ahh, feels good to have my original setup again.

Thanks!

---------- Post added at 09:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:07 AM ----------

When I slide the keyboard out, the backlights of the keyboard don't go on. The only time I can get them to come on is when I slide the device to wake. Even then, they last for about 5 seconds then turn off. The ALT and CAPS also lights don't work, but I believe that this is a known issue with ICS and the MT4GS.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
Can you take your hand and cover the sensor to see if that gets them going? I just woke my device and opened the keyboard and had no lights and once i covered the sensor they came on and have stayed on the whole time i typed this reply.

*edit*

Okay so running the Riyal build has

EQ patch#2

Htcbatt in system/bin

New kernel 3.17 with ffc fix

Ganoptimizer (matt)

HtcSettingsWidgets.apk

So far thats all i got threw together in a fresh flash and it seems solid as ever, but i just noticed this ROM has the same bug MikXE has when moving/trashing icons or widgets and a reboot is needed. Also when i flashed in it took a good 15 minutes to settle and stop lagging up on me, but this multi-device zip is weird and adding things to it was a bit different than adding it to a normal ROM. The only thing i added to our actual device folder was the kernel and modules, but thats because in our system/bin and in system/ect system/framework there wasnt enough files there for me to want to add the patches to our devices folder so 90% of everything went to the base zip and i hope the new files are being used..i know the SettingsWidget.apk is fetched from the base because WiFi widget set fine.......man i really need to learn how the multi-device zips work......ill shoot Riyal a link when its up so he can run through it and let me know if i did it right or fudged it
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] fozzy501:
So what is this kernel for ? Is it the 3.17?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
It's the 3.0.17 version. It's my understanding that it's basically the same, just with the front facing camera fixed. If I'm wrong, someone please correct me.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] rorytmeadows:
I tried again with the sensor covered and nothing. I was typing in practically pitch black last night when I first noticed (dark while I'm whooping butt on Modern Warfare 3).

I noticed the same MikXE icon moving bug yesterday. It was less frequent, but I wasn't able to trash one of my widgets because of it until after a reboot.

Things have been pretty good lately. I do get a bit of lag on wake up. Although I'm advised against it, when things are laggy, hitting Android Task Killer twice seems to help every single time. No FCs except for when I put Sense in landscape, but that doesn't seem to be an issue all of the time. I'm going to keep evaluating both this and the lag.

The periodic lag was evident with MikXE and Infinity, although with Infinity it's noticeable on wake-up. I have this sneaking suspicion it has to do with sync. I'm syncing Facebook and Friendcaster Pro so there might be a problem with the two at the same time. I'm going to turn off one and see what happens. Also, Google/Gmail, two Yahoo accounts, Weather, and Whatsapp.

I also seem to get the same text message scrolling problem as MikXE. Sometimes, when looking at a particular conversation of text messages, I can't scroll up or down. Attempting to just clicks on a message for the menu. I'll have to use the trackpad to go up. Task Killer does nothing for this.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] bit1:
I'm getting installation aborted on the file Kernel Patches.zip when attempting to install. should I do this on a clean install? I have last updated your prior Kernel Riyal. I also think you should just create your own ROM, I'd love to see that beauty.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
The patches.zip isn't flashable. Atleast it only appeared as source used to patch upstream kernel version.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
I know the cause and a simple workaround for the cannot delete widgets on homescreen bug & cannot scroll up/down SMS view. Actually they are both the same bugs it's related to <Htc....BoxLayout> which is caused by an incompatible libui.so.

Now the cause of this bug is whenever you go into the homescreen editor and add/move/delete homescreens. This is the only known cause of the said bug. Now the simple workaround for this bug is the same. You just need to go to homescreen editor move some homescreen a little bit(Just touch it and move it for at least a millimeter) then return. If the bug still persists just do it again until it's gone. No need for reboot :p
