Dialler on boot

Hi all.

Firstly, thanks for such a great ROM. I stuck with stock (with root) until there was something out there with improvements and this rom made me switch. Kudos to you guys, fantastic.

I do seem to have one issue which no-one else seems to have (I tried searching the thread...and the big Goog too just in case it is a One S issue and not a ROM issue. But, when the phone boots up, when I unlock it from the lock screen it takes me straight to the dialler. If I press the back button, nothing happens. I can only get to the home screen by pressing the Home button, and even then it starts to load everything.

On installation, I wiped everything, removing all information on SD (int) too. No issues were reported at all. Seems strange.

If there is not a known fix other than to re-wipe and install everything again, I'll stick with it until the next release then take it from there. Just wondering if anyone else has had this problem.

Thanks again guys.

Steph

Two different things. The WiFi had been fixed by HTC a while ago for Tmob and the wrong/changing icons are actually not affecting the connection, it is just the Icons playing up.

Hi mate,

actually this is on the Thread and had already been fed back by the Beta Testers in alpha stage, yet it seems to be rather isolated (not many). But the devs do know about it and have it on their list to look into.

This is actually described as "Sense not launching after boot" . It needs a trigger sometimes (the home button) to launch. I have that about 50% of the times i switch on the screen or do a reboot.

I suppose, it will be some memory management thing. Not sure though.

Thank you for reporting. I hope, you can nevertheless enjoy the ROM! :)
[HTC One S] Troja:
Supposed to be on Facebook. how do I stop live feed from Facebook?
[HTC One S] :
Been covered ;)

It appears as thought sense is a little slower to start than our logging in so throws up the contacts screen with sense loading underneath. I have sim lock and pattern unlock and my way around it was to sim unlock and when asked for pattern unlock I just waited for the reception bar and data icon to appear then unlock and it would load normally.
[HTC One S] stephan.pieri:
Oh I am definitely enjoying the ROM. Quick, battery good etc and the name...Venom haha

Sorry I didn't search correctly. In a way I'm glad that others are having this issue too. There's nothing worse than having a unique problem and the only way to possibly rectify it is to do a wipe and start again.

Cheers for the response.

Steph
[HTC One S] Sneakyghost:
:D Really asking that? :D

You got an item in Settings called "Accounts and Sync", in there, you see your facebook. Tap on it, then uncheck "Live Feed synchronisation" and best is, uncheck calendar too (it works but it's a nuisance to have fb events in calendar i think, just my opinion). Only leave the contacts. They sort of work (well, broken on my phone for some odd reason).
[HTC One S] skilqki:
sorry for the noob question but i don`t have the time to read 108 pages of replays .... can i install this rom on 2.21 and what is now working on it if there is something .... pls answer cuz it looks fine but i don`t want to lose my time trying roms that are not good atm ... I know u guys do great job on ROMs but i`m just asking I`m perfectly glad on the TD 6.0 but this ROM looks way different from other roms and i like the different things :) :good::good::good::good::good:
[HTC One S] Sneakyghost:
Hypothetically, nearly everything is working apart from a very few tweaks.

The ROM is 100% functional and usable as a daily, stable phone. If you need it for business i would recommend not to flash a custom kernel yet but on the other hand: i've been fine with that too.

Whats defo not working is some stuff that gets fixed with an OTA within the coming days. But there is nothing vital not working. Then there is some stuff that only very few people experience. Those things might be fixed in the future.

I don't write down a list now. Just trust me. It will not fail on you as long as you follow instructions.
[HTC One S] skilqki:
thc for the answer but i`ll w8 for the update to come and i`ll flash this one after ..... i realy don`t need a custom rom that much i only need a hard battery life and TD 6.0 is giving me a 3 day Batt life :) with 3g on taptalk nonstop and mails and calls :) hope this one is greater :highfive::highfive:then TD :)
[HTC One S] Phantom Pt. II:
Formatted my SD card and all is functioning now, including the icons :)
[HTC One S] :
★Headbutts wall several times★

You know I can't believe I forgot to try formating my sdcard to see if that solves my issue, not having a removable one means I forget about it. Can't see it fixing my issue but hell who knows? I've tried everything else...

Fingers crossed!
[HTC One S] frankd14321:
Rom was running really buggy and wouldn't boot with restarts sometime.. Even after clearing fastboot. So I put everything back to stock with RUU and re did everything and now it's AMAZING! Thank you for the great rom!!!!!!!
[HTC One S] mdiaz33685:
I never ran the RUU so this is my original HBOOT 1.06.... on my evo 4g I never ran the RUU only the same version ruu or lower... I DO believe Calkulin awesome dev.. had all the hboots, and on my one of my evo's i was able to lower it one lower.. but we had s-off...
[HTC One S] carlos_abril_94:
This rom is taking about 8% of my battery at night, with wifi and data disabled, and all apps closed. Any suggestion?
[HTC One S] s8m:
Confirmed here too on TWRP 2.21. I'm not sure if it's a TWRP thing, but Aroma froze up on me 3 times and I had to do a vol+power reboot.

Here's the steps that worked for me:

- factory reset + system wipe in TWRP

- install ROM

- reboot into bootloader

- run boot flash script

- reboot

Currently setting up my new rom .... kudos to the Viper team!
[HTC One S] Raptylos:
What a nice ROM - blows me away. Really AWESOME !
[HTC One S] torxx:
No you can't but stock kernel is fine.

Could you guys try CWM and see if you have the same issue with the fullwipe stuff?
[HTC One S] Habarug:
Well, I did. I put the Rom on my sd card, and flashed it :P flashed boot seperately. I even used the aroma installer to choose which apps not to install.

Rom works fine, btw :) was surprisingly laggy in the beginning, but when it settled it is smooth and fast ;)
[HTC One S] he_stheone64:
So I see you haven`t read instructions to the end, please boot in recovery again and wipe cache :cowboy:
[HTC One S] torxx:
A ROM is always laggy in the first minutes like battery life, after some hours it should all be even smoother and battery life needs some time, it has been great for us the last weeks
[HTC One S] he_stheone64:
This part is still buggy, we are aware of it. It`s the last remaining issue on our tweaks list. In that case you can also remap buttons tio unlock lockscreen.
[HTC One S] jaztim:
backed up - deleted cache/dalvik & factory reset in TWRP

Installed perfectly via Aroma

Rom booted up perfectly without the fastboot flash img method at all. (only took 5 mins)

Setting up rom now.

will report back l8r
[HTC One S] he_stheone64:
Please try the following:

Boot in recovery and wipe system/data/cache

Install ROM without Full Wipe

Reboot in Fastboot Mode and flash boot.img

Boot the device with "fastboot reboot"
[HTC One S] he_stheone64:
No
[HTC One S] he_stheone64:
In fact this is the last point in Install instructions, lol :victory:
[HTC One S] he_stheone64:
Just what the doctor ordered, see my post above. Glad it worked for you.
[HTC One S] el_smurfo:
Tried that once and got a black screen after selecting my apps to remove. This time, it seems to be installing the ROM. I guess Aroma is a bit twitchy and you just have to give it a few tries...
[HTC One S] k1llacanon:
Be hold this can you please get back to me on pm I have no reason why I ran the ruu to ho back to stock and clueless how to update my radio
[HTC One S] snwman:
Really impressed can not wait for futher realeses.. But cannot see why it would need any:D
[HTC One S] he_stheone64:
It starts slow, since it`s syncing a lot of stuff after Full Wipe. Usually it`s on full speed after 15-30 minutes and a cache wipe in recovery.
[HTC One S] torxx:
If you need support, ask here in the thread and don't ask in private, we will always try to help :)
[HTC One S] he_stheone64:
That`s why it`s called Aroma - the A at the end indicates it`s a girl. We know how they are :D
[HTC One S] Co5min:
I`ve finally managed to install it. I only wiped everything in recovery but not in aroma. That did the trick.
[HTC One S] dorezen:
does this rom retain the original sense multi language keyboard? i ask because i actually like being able to easily switch between 2 languages and retain somewhat of a swype-like function.
[HTC One S] Andy2502:
What's about battery life?

I think my battery life is now more worst than on the iphone 4! :D

Now i'm running cm10 from yzoni

Try using either cpu spy or I believe better battery stats to locate the problem. With cpu spy see if whilst left off if it is going into deep sleep and frequency its running at.
[HTC One S] ickedmel:
I've been noticing the same.. I do CPU spy my CPU does seem to deep to deep sleep but I seem to get these random HTC widgets running in the background. It's not like a huge drain
[HTC One S] he_stheone64:
Great to hear that tip helped and glad you can now enjoy the ROM :good:
[HTC One S] he_stheone64:
I`m sorry if I do not remember this, but what exactly was your issue? In Phantom`s case I was pretty sure he needs to format SD, but maybe I can help here too?
[HTC One S] he_stheone64:
Did you check wakelock with BetterBatteryStats or a dumpsys?
[HTC One S] Tecardo:
I was able to flash a lower Radio with my script and using a lower image. No problems and worked, Hboot 1.09
[HTC One S] alexdiaz:
Rotation bug

I found what was causing the Sense widgets restart, it's the rosie rotating.

If I have Rotation On even if I enter the camera app or a game and the screen rotates, when exiting camera/game the widgets refresh.

I've set Rotation to Off and now playing a game or entering camera app doesn't refresh the widgets, it's all ok.

Please look into this bug.
[HTC One S] he_stheone64:
Thx for that find, even if I can`t reproduce it yet, since I have rotation on all the time and no issues. This might in any case help others, who have similar issues.
[HTC One S] :
With Venom installed my phone runs 90% of the time running at 1512mhz max which chews up my battery. Everything else seemed to be great lol

---------- Post added at 06:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:28 PM ----------

Autorun manager on the market maybe able to help with that, used it for a long long time to kill any battery killers and works wonders for me.

Edit: Sorry just realised it won't do widgets. Maybe turn off sync for the night?
[HTC One S] he_stheone64:
No, we are using latest HTC stock Kernel. can you post a battery dump and logcat?

Battery:

adb shell

dumpsys batteryinfo

Logcat:

adb logcat -d > logcat.txt
[HTC One S] he_stheone64:
Can you also post logcat and battery dump, see post above? My phone usually runs @ 1512 about 10% of the time, depending on usage. Sometimes it`s tough to track on my device on days, when I reboot 50 times for new stuff to test, lol

Edit: LOL - just realized, ickedmel quoted you, too fast today :p:cyclops::p
[HTC One S] Troja:
Man I'm stupid. Have found it. Not happened to me again ;)
[HTC One S] :
Yeah no problem fella and appreciate you taking the time as I understand how busy you are, I will flash the rom later and run over night and follow your instructions tomorrow to give it plenty of time to try and highlight my issue.
[HTC One S] Bricolo_fr:
The 3 dot menu button (button, not the bar at the bottom) doesn't show in all apps and I'd like to have it.

One example is play store: in stock rom the menu button is at the upper right of the screen, right next to the search button

I haven't found how to make it come back, is there a way?
[HTC One S] Raptylos:
The issue is well known and will be fixed with the next ota afaik
[HTC One S] mliou:
is it possible to have different background between lock screen and wallpaper?
[HTC One S] rafiqzadah:
Just a little bug... Even though I have the "Notify me When Open WiFi is Available" toggled OFF... The Notification is still in the status bar.... It's annoying...

Yea they've been saying It's an HTC issue with RUU 2.21 release I believe. They say the connection is fine it's just the icons changing.

Yeah but this rom is 2.31 if i am not wrong

I'm lucky enough to have s-off also I was wrong even switching radios my phone crashes when trying to dial out I went and wiped everything and did a fresh flash no tweaks no removal and as soon as I went throught the initial setup tried to make a call and dialer crashes
[HTC One S] Rampage:
Chrome seems crazy buggy on viper... On trickdroid it worked flawless, but now on viper sites do not load like they should.

[HTC One S] JmPTaz09:
It changes to H(+) when you're actively using data, then once the data is transferred, it should go back to 3G
[HTC One S] alexdiaz:
Do you have Enable rosie landscape mode checked in Tweaks?

If I uncheck that, even with rotation on, I don't have the restart issue anymore.
[HTC One S] BenitoJr88:
For some reason today im stuck on EDGE data...is anyone else experiencing this? any help? thanks...
[HTC One S] :
Could simply be that the data towers are down. Have you checked with your carrier?
[HTC One S] BenitoJr88:
Haven't checked that yet...it was fine yesterday though.

This doesn't happen only at night, so I don't think smart sync would help. Wifi turns on and off all the time throughout the entire day. I'm thinking it's just a bug.

[HTC One S] :
I am running the latest EU one--1.06es----

And to answer other question--if anyone knew 100% why somethings work for most but not for the few they could make a lot of money--could be user wiping process, bad boot blocks, etc
[HTC One S] :
That was yesterday!

I recently had a three day period when the towers were off then on for an hour then off for 12 then back for ten minutes etc etc etc. A data tower can go down at any time.

I gave the sense removal a try with Nova when I restarted the phone nothing at the home screen and no Nova. I reverted back to sense It's possible maybe I did something wrong I'll try later.
[HTC One S] ipit:
Don't want to be flamed but I tried this ROM for a couple of day and went back to TrickDroid. Don't get me wrong, the developers have done an awesome job with it however it almost feels like it has too many options. I found myself going through a million customization options rather than using the phone for what it is. Also the battery life seemed (a little) worse than TD. Anyway, each to their own. I'm still using Torx's rom anyway so no complaints.
[HTC One S] Ryandroid86:
I know Team venom is working hard... but just curious... are you guys working on an update for Jellybean? or will this always be an ICS rom? and does the OTA updates effect this decision? Thanks
[HTC One S] Closed Source Project:
Then you are not a true modder / customizer. Your best bet is to remain stock. Lol, I never heard of someone saying there are too many options...
[HTC One S] Taysider:
I'm sorry but there's no way you could have tried all the tweaks in a couple of days to form a judgement. It reminds me of the Samsung very Apple jury. I've been using ViperOneS since day one and I'm not sure if I've tried all the tweaks yet. I've had no repeat no problems at all. The battery life is better than TrickDroid and that is fantastic.

I have a question about when in the aroma installer and the option to remove apps and you can remove like HTC watch stocks and all that It's not removing for me the apps and widgets are still there. I'll give it another shot.
[HTC One S] SnowToad:
he_stheone, have any idea how this could have happened? I didn't have logcat enabled at the time and I had to wipe and reflash anyway, it wouldn't boot anymore.

I backed up just data with recovery, wiped and flashed venom again, and worked. Restored data partition from before (thought it might just be ROM system causing it to not work), but it wouldn't boot after that either. Had to wipe again for it to work.

Also another issue I noticed, 'People' contacts app crashes when I try to view my own contact card/Profile in Contacts (where it has your name at the top of the contact list)

Tried clearing data for contacts storage. Still same. Anyone else get this?

Cheers!

Using this rom for past 3 days, battery life is.. Weird? Haha.. I get outstanding sleep time, like 3% drain in 9hrs (while I was sleeping) but when I start using it, it drains 1% every 10 to 10mins even without Internet, just plain doing/setting stuff in my phone..
[HTC One S] mughalgxt:
Why this urge to update radio firmware? If you have no issues with the current baseband stick with it else you may update but than downgrading is not possible unless your phone is on a lower hboot!
[HTC One S] leohdz148:
I understand that but I've been reading around and I'm seeing that the older base is better, btw my hboot is at 1.06 but I'm just curious and it doesnt hurt to learn new things....

Bug report - unable to charge whilst phone is off

Let me start by saying what everybody else already said: This Rom Is Amazing :)

I checked the google issue tracker and this bug is not reported, so here goes:

I am unable to charge the phone when it is switched off.

If I connect the power cord to charge it whilst it is switched off it will automatically boot into Recovery.

If I power off the phone when it is plugged to the electricity it will will not switch off but rather boot into Recovery.

If I power off the phone with no cable connected it switches off with no problem.

Please advise.

Thanks
[HTC One S] ickedmel:
That's a recovery issue. I use to have the same issue. Use the latest TWRP.
[HTC One S] frickinjerms:
hmm i cant seem to get this to boot.. i have hboot 1.06.0000 and twrp 2.2.0..

i flashed rom in twrp and fastboot flashed the boot that was in the rom zip and it sits on the splash then reboots and takes me to twrp again..

le sigh i was stoked to give this beast a whirl
[HTC One S] :
He didn't say he had used them all rather he felt overwhelmed by the amount and was using the phone constantly to play with them rather than using it as just a phone so went back to TD as its a better choice for him. I'm the same to be honest as only tweaks I use are rotating Rosie and transparent navbar. Each to there own.

My advice is apply the tweaks you want then delete the tweaks app and hub, can't play with something that isn't there ;)
[HTC One S] :
did you check md5

and exactly how did you wipe
[HTC One S] JmPTaz09:
You don't need to fastboot anything if you use TWRp recovery. It flashes boot.IMG for you
[HTC One S] Closed Source Project:
I tired to install this ROM just be flashing in TWRP and NO LUCK. Black screen. What I had to do was run the img flasher script in the OP (Windows batch file) after installing in TWRP, then all was well.

BTW: Schaumburg Illinois? :D
[HTC One S] :
Love the fact we are the noobs but your the one that is mistaken ;)

The radio 1.06 is the old one with signal issues for most so updated to 1.06s radio on the 2.2.1 update. Then came 2.3.1 with a 1.06se radio which some found to not be as good for them so reverted back to 1.06s and THIS is what has been mentioned. Radio/baseband is not rom based it is the radio so holds no bearing on anything to do with the rom or problems you may be experiencing other than signal issues.
[HTC One S] frickinjerms:
my md5 is good so its not a botched download..

i went into twrp wiped data/cache/dalvik/system

flashed the rom in twrp and did the setup how i was happy (to see if it worked like "normal")

since it didn't..

i rebooted into twrp after the flash finished and i went to reboot bootloader

then extracted the boot img from the viper zip and to my fastboot dir and typed

fastboot flash boot boot.img

then went back into twrp and wiped cache

and after all that hubbub it was a no go :(

thats what i was thinking.. cuz im still on an older hboot and twrp that doesn't need htc dumlock its just the auto boot flash
[HTC One S] Behold_this:
What was returned in cmd prompt when you entered fastboot command? Are you sure flash went through successfully?
