Alright, flashed the ROM, works great. Same bugs as others glitches backlight etc. But why doesn't the venom hub thing work? I can't seen to install anything from there

Day 2 is almost over, the ROM is still ultra smooth. I am using the Ultra smooth rosie :)

Have you guys selected the Venom rosie/theme or stock at the start? Is there a difference in performance? Because I selected stock on my second install and I think it might be smoother, or placebo :) I am in love with this rom

FM radio works! Didn't think it would for some reason
[HTC Incredible S] nniicckkss:
Hello OP & Development Team,

I hope you don’t mind me posting in this thread in trying to report a bug without seeing the ROM, based on assumption and by experience of other ROMs! So please don’t take it too seriously, but please could you bear this in mind.

Let me explain...

All of the following ROMs have the rotating home display, so you can view in portrait or landscape depending on how you angle your phone:

(OP’s own Rom) TSM UKB II, Virtuous Infinity and the dodgy Chinese ROM which stole your tweaks – there may be others too.

They seem to have the same home screen widget resizing issue, and screen touch misalignment issue.

Widget resizing issue:

For example a resizable clock, or the android calendar widget, you click and hold then let go, then you can use the pull-tabs to drag to resize the widget. The issue is that it doesn’t resize and snap to exactly the same place as it appears when you let go of it, like it does on most fixed rotation ROMs. This means restricted resizing/positioning capabilities of the widgets.

Screen touch misalignment issue:

It seems that on the home screen, that where you touch isn’t exactly where the widget/shortcut ‘hotspot’ is to activate the app. This isn’t so noticeable on full sized widgets, but when small widgets (for example a 1x1 widget) have multiple ‘hotspots’ within this area, then it becomes more noticeable. For example widget apps like Milticon and UCCW (Ultimate Custom Widget) do not operate correctly as the screen touch location is misaligned to the widget ‘hotspot’ area. You end up touching to activate a function and either it will not work or it will activate the function next to it depending on how you have set up the widgets. To activate the function you intend to, you have to tap the display to the right (and up a bit) of the 'hotspot'.

I think these two issues are related, I think they are both caused by the misalignment problem. But I'm just guessing here.

So back to your new Venom ROM here, it would be good if you were intending on having a rotating home display that these issues were reviewed. It would be great to see this as a feature in the new ROM, but for it to be bug free.

However, if this is an intended feature, and it can’t be bug free, then in my personal opinion, I rather have a non-rotating home display. Or a selectable option at installation stage to decide if you want to have the rotating home display (with bugs) or a bug-free fixed portrait orientation home display.

Thank you for reading. :)
[HTC Incredible S] nitsuj17:
i cant speak from personal experience on the vivo (obviously) but on the inc2 it works okay (it usually doesnt set right til after a reboot though)....but due to changes in ics sense, its not as reliable as it was on gingerbread
[HTC Incredible S] letmedanz:
Are we done with the teasing already ? :P
[HTC Incredible S] WILLI120:
Finally got to some testing. Here I come:

General Impression: with ultrasmooth Rosie phone really gets ultra smooth and fast:P

Working

Not Working
[HTC Incredible S] vieose:
It's also hard to take a screenshot from the notification bar.

Someone found a way to get stock icons back?
[HTC Incredible S] JerryBYong:
Venom hub?
[HTC Incredible S] WILLI120:
There's a menu point in tweaks;)
[HTC Incredible S] nitsuj17:
you can take screenshots from the power menu

we (well m0n and jan originally) had to disable power + home screenshot as it interfered with (iirc) with a broadcast receiver for some of the tweaks
[HTC Incredible S] vieose:
i faced that, but always when i hold the power button, the notification bar dissapeared ://
[HTC Incredible S] nitsuj17:
thats a very bizarre issue

but worst case you can set one of the long presses on soft keys to power menu
[HTC Incredible S] poondog:
When you hold the power button the notification drop down goes back up. Android does that, its not a bug. Just tested it on my N7 :)

@will are you talking about the dock icons on the launcher? They're moving fine to me.

Okay so the camera still crashes and auto brightness and rotate is still not working
[HTC Incredible S] linezero:
I guess the rom has some serious brightness issue..gonna install lux auto brightness for now to solve it out
[HTC Incredible S] poondog:
Downloaded beta 2 twice because AVG decieded to restart my computer to install updates. That would be why there are more dl's.

Flashed on top and everything in the changelog I have tried is fixed (obviously)

Could it be the ramdisk that is causing the vivo-specific problems like autobrightness and camera??

EDIT: Tried boot.img from Project X and didn't work.
[HTC Incredible S] vieose:
You are not the only one who redownload that a few times. Crashed two times in the morning by me ^_^
[HTC Incredible S] nitsuj17:
when you say rotate isnt working, what exactly do you mean?

rosie isnt rotating on home screens? or apps aren't rotating?
[HTC Incredible S] poondog:
Nothing is rotating. I tried just then settings, xda, music, messages, chrome and nothing. It only force rotates eg. apps only available in landscape like streaming with mxplayer.

And same for us about having no Venom theme in aroma.
[HTC Incredible S] nitsuj17:
hmm, works fine on vivow :confused:

have you tried a different kernel? did it work on previous betas at all? did it work on ukb at all?
[HTC Incredible S] JerryBYong:
It did not work on the previous beta. I've been trying to point that out but obviously no one saw my post
