[HTC One S] vovanius:
Hello! I'm complete n00b in Android, and I need some help. Got a T-Mobile One S (S4 CPU) flashed with ViperOneS 2.1.0. Now ver. 2.2.0 OTA update is available. If I update, and something goes wrong, can I roll back to 2.1.0 by doing this:

-when in 2.1.0, boot into recovery (TWRP 2.3.1.0) and backup System, Data, Boot, Cache;

-perform OTA update to 2.2.0;

-if something wrong, reboot to recovery;

-restore System, Data, Boot, Cache;

-reboot, and I'm back in 2.1.0, and all is like before update.

Did I miss something?

Thanks in advance!
[HTC One S] :
Wipe everything before restoring nandroid
[HTC One S] vovanius:
U mean perform factory reset?
[HTC One S] rustykwak:
factory reset, system wipe, cache wipe & dalvik.
[HTC One S] Cyber-Droid:
Full wipe BEFORE you Restore your Backup (2.1.0.). The steps you outlined for backing up 2.1.0 before installing the OTA update are good and so is the restoring process just remember to do a Full wipe! Thats what I did cause 2.2 wasn't working right for me, so I reverted to 2.1.0.!
[HTC One S] :
as rusty and cyber already posted, yes. full wipe

reason being, if 2.1 has issues and you don't wipe all, esp system, problem still may be there.

always wipe all inc system before flashing everything new. some small, incremental updates may work dirty flashing. but, even after awhile flashing cm nightlies you eventually are going to need a fresh install.
[HTC One S] trollallot:
Wrong thread :)
[HTC One S] vovanius:
Okay, got it. And what if I want to restore previously backed up system state while staying on the same rom? For example, my girlfriend messed up some settings or installed a lot of unneeded soft, and I want just return to state backed up a week ago, instead of uninstalling and correcting settings? Is the full wipe necessary in that case?

am i missing something? doesn't having S-OFF mean wifi should work with hboot 1.14.0004

edit: nvm guess you still need to flash wifi partitions. doesnt the boot.img have that info?
[HTC One S] Evil-Monkey:
Flash 1.13 along with TMO add on in Tecardos zip for best radio results in TMO US. If wifi doesnt respond then flash archive zip from Zarboz or 2.35 partitions.

P.s. I'm not sure whether the boot.img has it but I doubt this ROM is scripted to flash boot on first flash since s-off wasn't achieved until after this ROMs final release and back then we had the fastboot the boot.

Recent Apps Button

My recent apps button is set to "recent apps" (as opposed to the "menu") but clicking it opens menus of apps instead of the recent apps dialogue. What's strange is that I am able to set the long press to "recent apps" and that works fine. When I try to set the short press to "recent apps" the phone asks for a reboot and when I hit "ok" it returns to the venom tweaks menu without rebooting. Rebooting manually doesn't fix the issue - even though it is set to "recent apps" the button still opens the menu when pressed.

I have searched the forum for this problem and it seems like a few others had the same issue but haven't been able to find a solution. I tried wiping cache but this didn't fix the issue. Weirdly enough, no change in settings that requires reboot doesn't actually reboot the phone when I hit okay, I always have to reboot manually.

Thank you for your help.
[HTC One S] Evil-Monkey:
Don't let the tweaks app bug you too much. I would clear data on teaks and hub. Start fresh and see if that works for you. For me, everything worked except skins when I would download them.

echó en Android
[HTC One S] jamike77:
Thanks. I tried deleting the cache and user data for both apps but the button still opens the menu instead of recent apps, no matter what the setting is set on. Do you have any other ideas or do you recommend I do a full wipe and reinstall the ROM?

Thank you.
[HTC One S] Evil-Monkey:
Hmm. That's odd. I remember having mine set to short press for menu, long press for recent apps.

You could try a fix permissions. Are the home buttons programmable? It'd just the recent apps button that isn't working?

echó en Android
[HTC One S] jamike77:
Yes - weirdly it doesn't matter whether it's set on 'recent apps' or 'menu', it always opens the menu, even though the setting itself is preserved after the phone restarts. What is strange though is that when it asks for a reboot and I hit okay, it doesn't do anything, I have to reboot manually.

If anyone has any other ideas on how to fix this, that would be great, if not, I guess I'll go for a full wipe/reinstall. Sigh.

ive tried opening settings "apps" then finding friend stream apps and clearing all defaults, then i decided to do a complete format and reinstalled Viper 1.2.1 and its still not having it, Facebook and Flickr for htc sense have logged in correctly.

Thanks, im loving this rom.

Back to 1.2.1 from JB, intermittent wifi problem

Hi there,

Just came back to Viper 1.2.1, was using Viper 2.2.0 but attracted to Baked BlackBean because of inverted colours.

However, BlackBean's battery life is very bad, and since I didn't really feel 2.2.0 had much to offer over 1.2.1 (and I really hated not having USB mass storage), I decided to come back to Viper 1.2.1.

BUT: now I have a wifi problem: connection to router always good, but every time within about one minute after switching wifi on, I lose data traffic. Switching off and on again helps for a short time (typically less than a minute) and then traffic is dead again.

I found many sort of similar reports, but all are either router/settings related or ICS->JB (wifi partitions etc), but not applicable to my case.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

When moving to JB I initially had the (popular) wifi problem, which went away after I did the wifi partitions for JB. So I guess I still have JB wifi partitions, didn't find a clue how to revert back (would this be necessary?)

I have not tried a different radio.

I have tried factory reset

I have no troubles with WiFi...

I'm not sure whether this will help you.

I came from TrickDroid and I started after wipe cache and factory reset with the installation of the viper rom. After the the aroma installer I wiped the cache again.

Then I continued with the boot image und after this reboot I had no troubles with the WiFi

I should say I'm a fan of this rom, because I need to use HTC Sync with my GB-roms ;)

[HTC One S] Sneakyghost:
Means it didn't flash. Sometimes there seems to be a problem with the aroma installer. We thought we fixed that but some people still have it.

Please try to wipe everything (full wipe in cwm including data, system, dalvik and cache) and then run the aroma installer again, this time without the full wipe option. It should work then.

1. Scrolling on this ROM is the best I have seen on any ROM.

2. Don't know what you are talking about. There is only the 3-dot menu bar and menu button mapping.
[HTC One S] aritrea:
Hehe I'm talking about that virtual menu button in the upper right introduced in Android 4.0 design guide lines meant to replace the physical menu button. At the beginning of ics most apps didn't support that design so there was a menu button bar at the bottom, what I mean is not the bottom bar but the small 3 dot button itself, u know what I mean?
[HTC One S] invasion2:
Do you have a picture?
[HTC One S] aritrea:
Got it working now, actually it was the soft menu bar option. It just did not ask for a reboot so I didn't know it was necessary, but obviously it is ;)

Now about the scrolling... Since there are no other complaints it prolly has something to do with my device. Just did a reflash with wipe cache, gonna have an eye on this now..

Edit:

First impression is great, now I'm happy :) thanks for your replies
[HTC One S] k1llacanon:
Found a bug put on infinite scrolling then scroll left I only tried left when u have a page there its blank
[HTC One S] Phantom Pt. II:
Awwwwww wish the icons would work. :) tried it lots of times. No luck so far.
[HTC One S] invasion2:
Press the thanks button if we helped ;)

This is a bug, we are aware. Check the bug tracker and see if it is there. Infinite scrolling was not even supposed to be enabled in Sense 4, but it was hacked. So expect there to be bugs.
[HTC One S] :
yeah, scrolling is as good as I have ever had--am on ultrasmooth and klin oc kernel

as smooth as cm10 imho
[HTC One S] Sneakyghost:
Did you enable infinite Scroll? That makes the screens go laggy when scrolling and hangs at the last screen, then scrolls two "Ghost" pages and then comes back to first screen. This is a know bug and unfortunately affects the overall scroll experience. So, in case you have that on, uncheck it.

Then, enabling super or ultrasmooth rosie helps a lot.

Overall, the new Sense Scrolling has improved a lot with the 4.1 update. So, if its not the above reason, something else is wrong. Try to reflash. Don't worry, i reflashed like 10 times a day the past week while testing this thing and all i can say is: if its bad in any aspect, do a reflash first with a full wipe to make sure it is reproducible. There is many flashes not going right.

This is a notice to all users: my experience is, that like 70 out of a hundred flashes go smooth, 30 end up with some stupid faults. I have no idea why and i have given up on finding out. I just accepted this as one of the many downsides of Android/Linux. A reflash is always a good thing to try first.
[HTC One S] aritrea:
Sorry, one more question regarding the soft menu button..

On td7.1 i used to have that tiny little button on the upper right of any app which supported it. ( next to the search button in Google play for example)

After setting the long press behavior to menu (still in td) the tiny little button remained but the big menu bar at the bottom (Tapatalk for example) was gone.

Now I'm venom, either both menu bars are visible, or both are not. You know what I mean?
[HTC One S] ssmmdd:
Holy crap guys, this ROM is incredible!

Only a few days ago I'd been moaning to a couple of friends that the ROMs currently on offer weren't perfect. (no offence to anyone >.<)

But this, this is outstanding.

You've outdone yourself, and then some.

You have my gratitude, and as soon as I get paid, you'll have some of my hard earned money too!

Cheers!
[HTC One S] Sneakyghost:
I understand what you mean. You want the Bottom Bar gone but you want to keep the top right 3-dot menu button.

I am unsure if i can answer this. There used to be a function in 2.21 Base in Settings - Display and Gestures for removing the 3-dot bar and remap the recent button. I can't see this now though. HTC might have taken that out again.

If it was still there i would have said: enable 3dot in venom, then disable in Sense. That way, the top right button would have stayed.

I am confused right now, need to check back with the devs and see what i can mess about with. Will get back on thread. Watch out. Might be tomorrow though.

Or someone else knows the answer.

Just not for me. I'm not big on themeing or any of the other stuff on offer with the tweaks so have removed venom hub and venom tweaks using Titanium. Will this affect receiving ota updates?

I also have a development device with hboot 1.09(can flash boot.img via recovery).

Steps taken to get to this point:

Downloaded ROM

Copied to SD Card

Started TWRP & Aroma and did a full wipe + full installation. It went EXTREMELY fast and then never booted back up past that splash screen.

Checking the Q&A I saw a notation about this issue so I did do a fastboot erase cache and fastboot flash boot boot.img commands.

I am still stuck at the first splash screen. Any ideas would be appreciated.

EDIT::

Seems that it didn't install the ROM the first time when using the Full Wipe option. Went to re-install without using that option and it is currently installing and showing progress.

Ok.. The device seems to be booting now. Will report results later.
