You can choose to install s2w in Aroma installer:it's already there.
[HTC Desire S] peters.:
Guys is TTS working for you? I'm on 1.1 but there is no option for TTS in keyboard menu. Usually there is pico and maybe google... Or is this selectable option in install script?
[HTC Desire S] Librastar:
Dear am not talking about s2w am talking about s2u... :p
[HTC Desire S] NVardan:
Oops, sorry, I've understood you wrong.
[HTC Desire S] Librastar:
No prob mate ;)
[HTC Desire S] 441Excelsior:
s2w cannot be disabled, I chose disable at rom installation and it is still working, also in init.d there is 0 in s2w file (that means it should be disabled}, I don't want this feature, how to disable it?
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Yeah, I am afraid I accidentally broke the tts in this release, I have already fixed it for the next version, I am just still waiting for my pc parts to arrive. Hopefully this will be on Tuesday and I can get the update out to you all.

With regards to the issue of s2w no disabling correctly, can you try reinstalling busybox and see if that resolves the issue.
[HTC Desire S] 441Excelsior:
can you add option to aroma installer that will completely remove TTS? I don't use it
[HTC Desire S] Skanob:
It may be a problem with the init.d scripts not having the proper permission. The latest files that i've sent you should fix the problem, including the busybox installation problem.

Do you want me to still improve the installer scripts?
[HTC Desire S] 441Excelsior:
init.d scripts in this rom have 644 permissions, are they correct?
[HTC Desire S] sahilg009:
can anyone port music box for this rom
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
That along with some other things is planned for version 1.3
[HTC Desire S] Skanob:
Nope. Scripts should be 755. Change the permissions, then restart for the scripts to be implemented.
[HTC Desire S] sahilg009:

AW: [ROM][25 Feb 13]Desire XS version 1.1 [Sense 4.1 lite] [Android 4.0.4]

this has been discussed a lot of times in this thread and thantos decided a while ago that this is not going to happen.
[HTC Desire S] NVardan:
Is this file really corrupted or both my device and my laptop are crazy? O_o
[HTC Desire S] adrianis:
In aroma, this can be a option.
[HTC Desire S] 441Excelsior:
it isn't corrupted, I use that build.prop and I really notice better battery life, can it be used also in next versions of XS rom?

---------- Post added at 07:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:00 PM ----------

thanks, now they works...this should be fixed in next release because default permissions of init.d scripts are set to 644 now
[HTC Desire S] NVardan:
Both my laptop and my device don't open it. Maybe it's a bad download.:confused:
[HTC Desire S] michaeldepotter:
yes
[HTC Desire S] DuTY09:
hi thantos probably shouldn't be asking but what pc parts do u need my friend because I built my pc from the ground upward and have a few bits lying around needing a good home and was just wondering what sort of spec your running because would gratefully send them to you :)
[HTC Desire S] Skanob:
They should be fixed, I've already sent thantos the updated-fixed updater-scripts and aroma-config files. It should be able to fix the init.d and busybox bugs. And included a few/lots of customizeable stuffs.
[HTC Desire S] Henf:
i hope this clears thing up!
[HTC Desire S] mizerok:
Where is my favourite search button recent apps in version 1.1 ?
[HTC Desire S] Librastar:
I still has it and using with no issue.. :angel:
[HTC Desire S] NVardan:
I maybe had a bad download. I better try again after the next XS version released.(I'm currently on other ROM).
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Okay I have chased up on where the he'll the parts for my pc are as they still haven't arrived, and it turns out they were only dispatched yesterday, I got the tracking numbers and it looks like they should arrive tomorrow. I am hoping the harddrives will be recoverable in which case I can get 1.2 out in a few hours, trouble is that both The main drive and the backup drives were both soaked, and I have no idea what kind of surge went through the system as the power shorted out.

I see that once again the long press on home has reared its head again, thank you to the users who pointed out the answer on that particular subject.

For using the search button as the app switch button and keeping menu as menu, then the old files will continue to work fine with 1.1, I just forgot to add it to aroma. Please do remember that this removes all search functions from the search button though.

One the parts have arrived tomorrow I will try out Tue drives and report back to you all where things stand as to whether I have managed to recover any of the data or we are starting 1.2 from scratch.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Didn't want this to get lost in the other wall of text.

Thank you very much for your incredibly generous offer, I have actually paid for a whole new set of parts, (other half donated her Sensation XL and netbook to towards covering the cost as she felt guilty about being the one who poured the coffee into my pc in the first place bless her.) I have just been waiting for them to arrive.

I have an AMD A8-5600K APU 8GB 1600Mhz DDR3 ram, a 1 TB hdd, Asus mobo, Radeon hd 7770, and a 750w psu to rebuild with.

I have a problem that has been giving me a bit of a headache. It's about whatsapp. It's not that serious, but really annoying. Is anyone here able to turn off the "Auto-Image Download" on whatsapp ? I'm on a group chat, and everytime my friends post up an image, it automatically download to my phone and I find it annoying as its wasting my mobile data. On previous version of whatsapp which is quite long ago, I'm able tot turn it off and choose the images that I wish to download.

Actually, this happens on sense ROM only I suppose, even on this ROM, I've been trying to flash different sense ROM but all the same. On my friend's phone which he's using AOKP, he's able to turn off the auto download image on whatsapp under chat settings. but for my phone, which im using sense, I don't have that options.

I'm not sure if it's related to this ROM, of thantos might have a solution for it? Or u guys could help?
[HTC Desire S] DuTY09:
no worries mate because I only had some old ddr2 ram and an intel dual core 2.6 so they wouldn't of worked on your motherboard anyways. And that's one generous misses you have there because I don't think mine would sacrifice her phone lol and good luck with your drives hopefully they should fire up (fingers crossed)

I charged my phone until 91% of battery, then I powered it off. When I switched it on the battery icon showed me 100%. Is it normal?
[HTC Desire S] Librastar:

Yes its normal, most of the people would say that your battery is faulty and bla bla, but trust me its not an issue my phone is giving 37hrs with normal use.

[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aliendex:
There is something that i can' t understand:

We know that ICS can't hide the status bar, but we can only hide the symbols and the date/time because in ICS the status bar is integrated in the UI system.apk so if we force close it we have some problems...

This is the question:

Why when I am in youtube and I watch some video in fullscreen it can hide the status bar??

I'm using 3.5.5 youtube version and

this is the only APPLICATION

that can hide the status bar for see a video.

It's annoiyng because my films are resize at 1024x600 but

the statur bar take a lot of pixels

in the screen and it crop my films, all video player I've installed can't use a sort of "fullscreen mode" like youtube!!

Can anyone open youtube3.5.5.apk and see how it works the fullscreen code?

This is important because developers can integrate this function in ALL ICS device and we can have video in REAL FULLSCREEN!!
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gabripranzo:
Gmd gesture control is a wonderful app (but you need to have root) which can also hide the status bar. I really recommend it.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ivan Fuentes Hagar:
Yeah... I wish it was easier tu hide that thing... not like youtube does, though... have you noticed those gray dots left in the upper part of where the icons used to be? Or is it just me?
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] focasam:
I can confirm the same!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shal99:
Was on the Lanlight Alpha when my sdcard became corrupted, now flashed to AOKP. Figured that it has nothing to do with the ROM, but more so JB itself and how our phone handles the sdcard when on it. Now have to use my external as my internal, but by doing this my camera app won't start up, saying "there is no external storage present." Tried editing my vold.fstab, but I guess I'm doing it incorrectly because it would just stick onto the loading screen when booting up and would never move on.

vold.fstab looks like this

Most android applications are so ugly and poorly made I cant even use them. I have spent all day looking for a simple note taking app. Evernote is too complicated, I'm looking for just a simple notes app. There arent any.

Look at iOS apps.

Theyre beautiful.

As opposed to android apps.

Thats a very basic look. No disrespect to the developers, but iOS apps seem to always be nicer. Is it the apple SDK?

This isnt just with notes apps. All apps have that same ugly style.

What apps are you using to make your phone look nice and modern?

Thanks

Niskay NY, nice. I'm near Albany.

I know tell me about it. Wouldn't you think the most selling mobile devices would have better app support.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] DavDoc:
Try out Color Note, not too complicated, looks alot like iOS; at least from the screen shots you posted, and it does apple one better - it has a note widget for your home screen.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] canpitt27:
I second that. ColorNote is my favorite.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] litetaker:
Slide Notes look very polished: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mbile.notes

For Tasks, a really good app is "Tasks": https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ch.teamtasks.tasks.paid

Both are well polished and elegant looking, while tasks is written with the modern ICS UI guidelines. Though Slide Notes isn't yet using the Holo design principle, it is still elegant and has good typography in my opinion. It doesn't have the sticky note widget though... You oughta search hard, but I admit I too had a hard time getting a good note taking app until I found Slide Notes.

Anything that can sync within gmail, simplenote or Evernote. Or one that has an iOS app? I was hoping I could sync notes with my ipad. But it's not that important.

The stock HTC Tasks app on Sense4.0 and up syncs with google tasks, has a nice widget, and is really well polished.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] litetaker:
One of the few reasons why I like manufacturer skins is the apps that they bundle sometimes that are actually good and augument stock android. HTC notes is actually quite good and so is the tasks. Then sound recorder and FM (FM not available on this phone though) which stock android ignores somehow.

And on the side note, my old Droid x2 had a email client on gingerbread that was a god send. The stock gingerbread email client was god awful without any search function. The one moto packed was about as good as the one included in ICS.

There are a few gems in this phone too and a lot of turds. But it is sometimes worthwhile and sense is pretty smooth...

[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] MJL99:
Does anyone else using the tasks app have duplicating tasks? When I create a task attached to my Google account and not a local one it syncs fine. If I edit the task, it duplicates. If I create a task on the web based Google account, it syncs to my tasks app one day earlier. I see other people on the evo posted about this but no one has mentioned it here. Has anyone else come across this bug? Only started using this app while on viper 2 also.

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] imugur:
Now that I had enough time to play with the Sony Xperia T, I can give you my impressions about the new flagship phone of the Japanese manufacturer. There are already a lot of reviews and comparisons on the Internet so I will just tell my personal feelings about the phone. From the beginning I have to tell you that I am not a Samsung fan (although they do great hardware, the design is crap and the interface is ugly) nor an Apple fan (as some say it is built for people with average to low IQ).

Coming back to Xperia T, the size and weight are OK, even though some people are complaining is heavy, I don’t have that problem, it fits well in my pocket. The material on the back side is also good, having good adherence with your hands. Power and volume buttons are placed on the right side (well placed for right handed people, I am not sure if left handed people are confortable with this).

Camera is one of the best features the Xperia T is having, you can shoot great pictures in 13 megapixels. What really stands out is the speed of the camera: in lock mode you can press the camera button and in less than 1.5 seconds you have the first shot. Don’t worry, the camera button is not easy to press in the pocket.

USB port supports also HDMI output and I was able to connect a USB to HDMI adaptor from Samsung to connect the phone to the TV (your TV must support HDCP). You need to connect the charging adaptor in order for this to work (but I guess this is the same for the Sony TV dock) and will keep you the phone charged. The good thing is that I have a Bluetooth keyboard (with touchpad) that I can connect to the phone and while connected to the TV i can really use the phone as normal PC! This feature probably works with other phones as well. Video output is 1080p so the quality on phone screen and TV is great. If you want to connect the phone to the car USB (for charging the phone or playing the music) you need to set USB to Mass Storage mode (MSC) in Settings - Xperia - Connectivity - USB connection mode.

Whole review including pictures and screenshots can be found here:

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] RCJ89:
I have had my SXT since saturday now and I think it is a great phone but there is quite a few negative points it has.

So let me get to them:

*the camera still has that issue of being slow to focus sometimes and in video aswell which means you still miss shots which really jarred me when i had the sxs.

*the speaker for earpiece and loudspeaker should have been louder as outside you cant hear the phone ring and you can barely hear what people are saying on the phone

*you can barely see the notifcation light unless the phone is directly infront of you

*Battery life is average, doesnt last a day under moderate usage, lasts about 20 hours
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] imugur:
I actually like the fact that notification LED light is low :) with my Arc it was like a night lamp.

20 hours are enough for one day. During night I'm always charging the phone

For the earpiece and loudspeker I have to disagree, at least I didn't have such issues. for ringing I am using also vibrating mode ;)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] RCJ89:
Earpiece and speaker seriously could be louder and the notification light could have been better, in these three aspects they have taken a backwards step from the xperia s imo.

As I use headsets for calls anyway phone calls isn't a issue.

The ARCs notification light was stupid as it was on the side of the phone which imo was pointless also.

Other than that I really enjoy my SXT.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] tomo100brt:
I agree. I also barely see that notification light. On XPERIA S when I put it on charger notification light was lighting like flash. I had to cover it over night because notification light was so bright. Maybe something between notification light on XPERIA T and XPERIA S would be good.

When the light is poor camera is slow on focus almoust every time but outdoor over day everything is OK.

Everything else is excellent and no complaints.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] imugur:
Every phone have some weak areas. I can live with those of Xperia T :)

http://mugur-ionescu.ro/tag/xperia
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] RCJ89:
Thanks for the info on the camera focus, however I wish SONY would fix that because my HOX focuses straight away in low light and so did the S3. Also I didn't mind the brightness of the LED on the xperia s, the sgs3 or my hox. I like it like that means I can just look over at my phone and see if i have a text or something at night as my phone has to be on silent as not to wake my daughter. As it is I have to pick the phone up and check.

Aside from that yea I really love my SXT and am looking forward to the Yuga or whatever it is going to be called.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] JalmiNyondong1933:
hi. Im currently using HTC One V and planning to buy HTC One S, but unfortunately HTC One S in my region is theSnapdragon S3 version. so I'm thinking to buy this phone instead. one thing that bothering me is that it doesn't have a Gorilla Glass display (plastic body is OK). so my question is the Shatter proof and scratch-resistant glass on it's screen is as durable as Gorilla Glass screen? I like the phone in general. the other things that I like about this phone are community suport, official CM support etc.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Ambroos:
It sort of is. The screenprotector (shatter-proof sheet) that is on there by default scratches easier than Gorilla Glass, but the glass itself is really quite durable!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] JalmiNyondong1933:
thanks for the reply. do you think the phone still requires an additional screen protector? and what about a case/soft jacket etc, since the back cover is plastic, do you think it needs a case? (I'm afraid to squeeze it in my jean's pocket), but I can put this on my jacket though to prevent that:D. I'm going to buy it tomorrow (3 youtube videos make me love this phone):good:.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] kalo88:
The Xperia T is the first phone where I've ever used the stock keyboard it comes with... I think its brilliant and so easy to type on.

There's lots of things I love about the phone, I do wish the notification LED was bigger however but meh... some phones don't even have one!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] anwedr:
Thanks for the mini review of the Xperia T. I'm itching to purchase this baby, but will wait a few more days. The Xpera T will be an upgrade in terms of smartphone OS transition. Coming from a Nokia N8 handset, I don't feel the XT will be a huge upgrade seeing how the N8 is still the best camera phone as of this day and the 13MP on the XT, as stated by many reviews, just isn't that great (camera quality and dedicated camera button are huge decision makers for me).

Heck, every friend who played with my N8 thought it was running Android OS. :victory:

In terms of speed, I probably won't notice the lag even if lag was present if I were to compare it to the N8.

LED notification; the N8 notification light is horrible. I can definitely live with the "poor" notification light on the XT if it's significantly more noticeable than the N8.

Anyways, nice review. :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] JalmiNyondong1933:
Hi. Wellcome aboard N8 refugee:). Been using it for about 7 hours now. You will not notice any lag whatsoever. The Krait processor is awesome. I bought this phone just because it has Snapdragon S4 processor, I don't use camera that much. The notification light issue is not a big deal for me.

only Chuck Norris can judge me
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Ambroos:
My Xperia T still hasn't arrived (FedEx :eek:) but my Xperia S has the same display type and I'd never cover it with yet another screen protector.

Just use it as it comes. The default screen protector will last you quite some time. I've had my Xperia S since the day of release, 8 months now and my display is still near-perfect. When you've got scratches on the display you just remove the "shatter-proof sheet" and replace it with your own screen protector and your display is as good as new!

Again, no experience with the T, but on my Xperia S the (probably significantly less rough) back got some glossy spots from the friction in my pockets. But the material is completely different so I can't say how the T will fare here...
