Finally somebody who cares about putting the right .png files for the notification drawer.

Thanks for the awesome work!
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Just curious, would users be interested in google now if I could manage to port it into this rom?
[HTC Desire S] mizerok:
YEA! Intrested in it!
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
okay, its something I am going to look into, but no promises, depends how well it will integrate, and how buggy it ends up.

On another note, the desire X has had an update, so am going to have a look at the changes and if there is anything worthwhile I will merge it in for the next release.
[HTC Desire S] finistere:
As long as it's a completely optional install. ;)
[HTC Desire S] mizerok:
Take your time with new build, and maybe add to aroma full sense 4 lockscreen
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Yeah, its something I would add to aroma installer, and its only an idea, atm, if it ends up being too buggy then it wont happen at all, its just a nice feature that doesn't require changes to the framework of the rom to run so shouldn't have any impact on the roms performance overall. (well at least thats the theory.) Just wondered if it was something people were generally interested in or not at the moment.
[HTC Desire S] totalnoob34:
Just installed v 2.01, and I like it, good job!

I found an irritating aspect of the keyboard: I can't have the normal QWERTY keyboard, but I only have access to the German QWERTZ, why?
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
absolutely no idea, tbh keyboard should work fine, I can switch through all the langs that come with the rom, EN, FR, DE, IT, ES, and PL.

Did you do a full wipe before installing?and did you wipe through aroma installer or through recovery?
[HTC Desire S] totalnoob34:
I did the wipe with aroma, which i suppose is the 'Wipe everything except sdcard' in 4ext, which I always perform before installing a rom.

Btw, I managed to get the QWERTY one, but only with Spanish language, all the others, English included, are QWERTZ. Should I install the rom again?

The rom file wasn't corrupted, by the way :confused:
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Yeah, try anouther flash, you should defiantly have qwerty keyboard like so

View attachment 1546865

EDIT; Just to test with, what have you got the system language set to?
[HTC Desire S] zacman:
hi thantos what about usefull updates today??
[HTC Desire S] teadrinker:
Some people just take the devs' work for granted... :rolleyes:
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
well atm, I'm lookking at google now, and rosie. I'm also waiting for flythewiz to get back to me on the last bluetest.zip I linked for him on page 41. Also someone said that the captive button backlights stopped working properly in the last patch I uploaded that fixed APM again so will be putting up anouther test patch later for that as well. also theres the thumbnails for photos taken when the front cam is set to 1M, although as I dont think our front cam is supposed to take 1M pictures I suspect that that is the issue there.

Oh yeah, and of course I'm also jumping outside every hour to test the problem someone had of gps resetting itself when it got a lock.

So with so little to do I though I'd kick back and take the day off, hehe.;)
[HTC Desire S] zihinsiz:
You work really hard :) Thanks again.

Someone who said backlights stopped after patch was me. They work fine now. I edited my post.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Ah, missed the edit, glad to hear all is okay, and after checking your edit, yes the patch will be in the next update :laugh:

I'n regards to the corrupted thumbnails, this will only occur when you switch to the front camera, and have image resolution @ 1M (1280 x 960) and Widescreen Resolution enabled. I believe this is could turn out to be a purely hardware related issue as we only have a vga front camera but I will see what I can do. For now the solution is simple, turnoff widescreen or drop the resolution to 640 x 480.

Scratch that, I'm going to see about removing the 1M option completely as it only takes the photos in 640x480 anyway.
[HTC Desire S] zacman:
battery performance is really good. i could not find to say anything. perfect work for desire s....
[HTC Desire S] flykthewiz:
I will test that. Sorry been really busy this weekend
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
No problem, whenever you get a chance, realize that you probably have other priorities that have to come first
[HTC Desire S] totalnoob34:
Italian, i will flash the rom again, thx! :D

Sent from a thing that surely hates me
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Okay, I just set my system language to IT, and have qwerty on IT, ES, PL, EN, then azerty on FR, and qwertz on DE.
[HTC Desire S] zacman:
hi thantos. i'm using first 2.01 rom without patch except widgets. i could not find any bug backlights of buttons. sensors are correct working. in a dark room they are lightining. and when you are in normal lighted room backlights are not open. is it correct working??
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Yeah, the auto brightness and captive backlights not coming on only affected some users not all, something that I can only put down to hardware differences between handsets, if yours are working fine then you don't need to worry about it.
[HTC Desire S] Metallurgico:
Ho impostato la ROM in italiano con tastiera in italiano e non ho alcun problema. A me funziona come tutte le altre ROM con la Sense.

I set the ROM with italian language and italian keyboard and no problems. It works like every Sense ROM
[HTC Desire S] zacman:
but maybe i think backlights can be always open in dark or normal lighted room. firstly i load backlighttestfix.zip patch nothing else. and then i flashed backlighttest.zip and again i couldn't see any change, backlights are opening in dark room and closing in normal lighted room. i made a mistake or i changed any system settings faulty??

---------- Post added at 02:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:00 PM ----------

oooo power button does not working correct i could not see power close menus. it always resets phone i think i must flash backlighttestfix.zip again. and then backlights are open continiously.

ok. power menu turned back.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
yeah the backlighttest.zip and backlighttestfix.zip contain the same values for the backlights and autobrightness for the screen, but I forgot the resources for the reboot menu in the first one as that was just a test to ensure the problems I had recompiling were gone. In all honesty there isn't a massive difference in the levels, but if with the fix the buttons are light up continuously then just reflash the rom with out a wip and you'll be back to normal values. that patch is specifically for those that have a problem, and will be on of the optional installs in aroma on the next build, (although I may tweak it a little more and see if I can get it to the point where it works fine for everybody.
[HTC Desire S] zacman:
and i think i had this new bug. when reboot the phone, some app icons gone and lost in last home screen of at the end of right side. interesting but not important for me. but everytime every app icons are lost. first, fifth, nine and ten.

and have you any zip file about live weather lockscreen and live animated clock-weather??
[HTC Desire S] zihinsiz:
My disappearing app icons on homescreen after every restart are xda app and 100doors game. And I have a folder named "games" on the homescreen and one time this folder is gone after restart.
[HTC Desire S] twist3rtm:
Great ROM, just installed. However I cannot update the Twitter app. I receive the following error on update: Package file was not signed correctly. Uninstall the previous copy of the app and try again. The problem is that I can't uninstall the previous copy of the app because it's embedded in ROM. The Facebook app had no problem on updating.
[HTC Desire S] teadrinker:
It's probably the same problem as in sabsa prime, seems to affect apps that are on the sd card (like the xda app, games etc.). After restarting Rosie ("HTC sense") the icons reappear.

---------- Post added at 03:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:08 PM ----------

You can uninstall system apps using titanium backup.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Will have a look why twitter wont update, perhaps get it to install onto the data partition on the next version

@zacman, yeah I believe that the issue is down to fact that rosie actually loads just be fore the sdcard finishes mounting so it cant see the app to show the icon, moving the app to the internal memory instead of the sdcard will resolve th issue for now. I am looking to see if I can figure a way to get the sdcard to mount earlier in the boot process which will fix the problem completely.
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
That error is not exactly ROM related. The twitter app you put on the ROM has been recompiled, and signed with a different signature obviously. Android won't let you update a package with one with the same package name and a different signature.

Two solutions: either put the original twitter app on the ROM, or hack the signature check method on services.jar to always return true.

I had mentioned this before related to system framework recompiling. It also applies to regular apps when updated.

Cheers
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
hmm, thought I had done that correctly already, maybe I missed something in it, I'll take another look at services.jar again.
[HTC Desire S] Metallurgico:
After a couple of days of use I can say that I haven't found any issues apart from the buttons backlight mentioned previously.

This ROM is really amazingly smooth.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Do you mean with the backlights not coming on? if so you can flash this patch to fix it

http://d-h.st/DX4
[HTC Desire S] totalnoob34:
Mi sa allora che è un flash andato storto, non fate il wipe con aroma. Meglio full wipe via 4ext.

Mi fa piacere trovare qualcuno italiano su questo forum :D

It must be a bad flash, then, don't do the wipe with aroma.

Much better to perform a full wipe via 4ext.

I'm glad to find some Italian people on this forum :D

[HTC Desire S] twist3rtm:
So, uninstalled Twitter with Titanium backup then tried to download the app from Play Store. Received some error than unfortunately I cannot reproduce it. Then reboot the phone and right after reboot I saw "Android is updating" or something like that. Then I went to Play Store and I saw there twitter is again on my phone. I hit the update button and it worked. Now it's the latest version. Anyway, I still have one more observation:

It seems that on my phone the auto brightness is working but it's far more bright than previous ROM (stock gingerbread ROM). It does not affect me so much but I guess it will drain battery faster.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Okay the signature check in services.jar is definitely sorted now and will be in the next rom. (just tried a fresh install with the twitter app and it updated fine.)
[HTC Desire S] totalnoob34:
No improvements, still QWERTZ even after a clean install.

I also noticed that Lucky Patcher isn't working, it opens and freezes on the app list, can you check please?

Sent from a thing that surely hates me
[HTC Desire S] twist3rtm:
Also I am not sure if it's related with the previous problem but Twitter account is missing from Social Clock widget. I cannot add only Facebook and Flickr account. On stock ROM twitter account was available too.
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
You are seriously asking for help with a cracking app here on xda?
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Is it qwertz on all languages?

okay will have a look at whats up with it.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
okay , didn't know what lucky patcher was, if it a cracking app then sorry I wont look into that particular problem
[HTC Desire S] Metallurgico:
Well, I now discovered that buttons backlight works when I am in a really dark environment like a closed room at night. So I'm glad it's not an issue.

I used 4ext wipe and then full wipe with Aroma installer so I don't think is an Aroma issue. Try to redownload ROM with a PC

;)
[HTC Desire S] oddoneout:
Is V6 SuperCharger included?
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
sry I missed this post earlier, there is a patch I posted in the thread, (linked it just a few posts before this) that alters the auto brightness and backlight levels, try that see if it helps.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
services.jar has been ready patched in prep for supercharger, you just need to run the script itself.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Okay guys I'm looking into something that may mean that the next update is pushed back by a couple of days, but, if I can get it working should offer something that I don't believe as of yet has been done before, for the desire s at least, in terms of install options. Definitely think it will be pretty cool but don't want to give to much away incase it doesn't work out.
[HTC Desire S] flykthewiz:
Ok

I have tried blurtoothfix3 and I am sad to report that still no luck with Ford Audio

I did a clean install of 2.01 and then installed the patch. nothing else was installed or set up.

Car audio is found and connected ok and other party can hear me bu I cannot hear them.

If a call is made/received with the BT connected and I transfer audio to the phone I cannot hear the call in the phone either/. but if a call is made without BT connected everything is fine.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Okay, thanks for letting me know, I will have another look and get back to you.
[HTC Desire S] makikaki:
I have some issues with main camera when is set to 5M.

Before i take the picture if i touch screen to focus then the picture starts to go up and soon i get image broken in two parts, sorry for bad english it is hard to explain the bug.

Does anybody else experiencing this ?

Apart from that, the rom is great
[HTC Desire S] holvoetn:
Fly,

I am forced to announce I am also seeing problems as of today.

I had a trip with in total 15 calls (one hour drive so there was time).

After 3 or 4 subsequent calls (subsequent = without resetting BT nor device), the other party can not hear me anymore and then the BT connection drops.

I needed to disable and enable the connection in order to get it working again.

I even had to do a full reset of my device (peeps: do NOT try this while driving !!).

So I now confirm there is a problem with BT and car kits.
[HTC Desire S] flykthewiz:
I am glad I am not the only on with problems, although sad that there are problems :(

and my name is flyk :) flyk the wiz (the name of my d&d wizard character :) )
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Okay guys, I should be ready to start putting together the rom and testing the installer by the end of the day tomorrow, and hopefully have it uploaded if all goes well the day after. As this is going to be a major overhaul of the entire rom I am going to hold of on trying to bugfix the issues with the current base and await feedback on the new update to see if the overhaul has helped to iron these out. I hope you guys can bear the little niggles for a couple more days, and hopefully when the new build goes live you guys will decide that it was well worth the wait.;)
[HTC Desire S] twist3rtm:
I'm bringing to your attention another issue that I have. I use the phone only in 2G mode, mostly because 3G reception isn't 100% available in all areas of the city I live, and for preserving battery purposes.

The thing is that with this ROM I see that from time to time I lose 2 signal bars from those 5. I didn't experienced this issue with the original ROM so I think it must be something related with this one. The 2G in my region always had full bars so I think there's no problem with the network. I use the original radio 3822.10.08.04_M but as I said, with the original gingerbread ROM didn't experienced any problems with the signal. Thank you
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
The only thing that I can suggest is to upgrade the radio, could be the ics ril doesn't play well with the gingerbread radio, I am on 3821.19.00.110 and am not experiencing any signal issues, however I will reflash the older radio and see what happens.

Do you havev similar issues with other ICS sense roms or just this one only?

Anyone else have an issue with the signal?
[HTC Desire S] twist3rtm:
To be fair the only ICS ROM I've tried before yours was IceColdSandwich Perfecto-Linaro Edition and I didn't keep it only few hours. I didn't observe the issue but I wasn't paying special attention to this detail either. After that I've installed JB ROM Andromadus Test builds - CM10.1 and keep it for one day. I didn't observe the issue with this ROM either. After that ROM I've installed this ICS ROM and I've keep it until present. For now is not a big issue because even with the signal drop there still are 3 bars, but when I will go to an area with not so great signal there might be an issue.

I will try a newer radio if that might be a fix, I just didn't want to play with radio's yet.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
well with the new update there will be some major changes to the base of the rom, so before you go flashing radios, it might be worth seeing how things go with the update.(I'm hoping to be ready to release late tomorrow, assuming I dont run into any issues along the way.)
[HTC Desire S] twist3rtm:
Great news, I will wait for the new ROM and give it a try.
[HTC Desire S] spavian:
I hope the camera bug will be fixed în the new version . Thank you
[HTC Desire S] jsis83:
More homescreens in new version?.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
I will be testing the camera as thoroughly, along with everything else I can before release, so that I can hopefully catch and fix all bugs before release

hmm, I suppose you could say there are options with the homescreens, you'll have to wait and see.:p
[HTC Desire S] PVL_93_RU:
I don't know what it is, but you should totally call it the X Tweaks or DX Tweaks:D
[HTC Desire S] SamePaul:
The only functional difference I noticed is lack of HTC 4x1 widgets, less Lockscreens, inability to customize Lockscreen shortcuts, lack of secure/blocked SMS. All other stuff it pretty same.
[HTC Desire S] twist3rtm:
Another issue (only for Romanian language) that you may think resolving for the next ROM would be that on this ROM the display of the diacritic " ț " is missing. I use SwiftKey and I have this diacritic on the keyboard but because of some issue with ICS (I read somewhere that this is a bug of original ICS)

There is this thread that I think it post some fix for it but I think it would be nice to have a ROM that resolve this problem once for all.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1228834
[HTC Desire S] jsis83:
Ok :laugh:
[HTC Desire S] SamePaul:
I tried some Sense4L ROMs before and this one is actually disappointing a bit:

No English(Russian) system language -> no Cyrillic letters on dialer buttons. Big miss, as half of my phonebook is on russian.

Recent apps with Menu button??? What happened with old-good Home-long-press? That's was the weirdest decision...

No HTC gestures (3-finger swipe in 4 directions). Consequently, no overrides for those gesture actions.

USB Debugging notification icon is displayed all the time. Not bug, but annoying. I'd rather never see it.

Dialer without bottom buttons. Though I guess this makes Dialer to open faster, but I found myself using it pretty frequently.

Screenshot isn't working (or I didn't find way to trigger it)

Good things:

ROM indeed feels very fluid.

Camera Panoramic shoot actually works. (Finally someone made it work!)

Keyboard has "trace" feature (lots ROMs miss this feature).
[HTC Desire S] makikaki:
I have a sizing issue with navigation software (igo), on my previous rom the same program was sized ok and now I dont have enough screen on the bottom and i dont see whole buttons in the bottom part of the screen.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Its not any tweaks yet that will be coming further down the line but something else

Will look into it and see whats what, I have been looking in between things at keyboards for different languages with the aim to cover as many possibilities as possible in the future as I realize XDA has users from alot of different nationalities, atm it just had the standard keyboards and languages that were part of the Desire X rom.

Screenshot was disabled in the build.prop due to it interfering with the sweep2wake feature, this was because HTC remapped it form the default power+vol down to power+home and is something I will look at switching back so it no longer interferes with sweep2wake. In the mean time though there is a screenshot option in the APM that people can use instead.

Recent apps on the menu was simply down to me not having got around to editing the smali to remap it back to the home button (desire X has no menu button but an app_switch button.) Although personally I dont really see the difference between long pressing home for recent apps, and long pressing menu for recent apps. (And if your complaint is about the fact that pressing menu once brings up recent apps and not menu, you obviously didn't bother to read the op, in particular the blurb headed installation.)

HTC gestures and the tabs on the bottom of the dialer are actually full sense 4 features, and are not normally available on sense lite, however other devs have either enabled them through switches in the smali, or ported them from full sense roms. I have stated previously in the thread that once the rome is fully stable and bug free, the options like this were something I will be looking at.

Oh and also with the USB Debugging notification icon, that can be disabled through a switch in the build.prop, it just hadn't been added yet as this is still beta and there are still some tweaks to be implemented through the build.prop.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
hmm, not sure why you would have a sizing issue though, as nothing in this rom has been touched with regards to resizing, but will have a look what going on.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
the lockscreen shortcuts are determined by the items you have on the launchbar, that is the same for all sense 4+ roms as they removed completely the option to choose your own lockscreen icons after 3.6
[HTC Desire S] twist3rtm:
Well, as I read, this issue with this missing diacritic is a bug with ICS but was resolved on JB because I had that character on JB ROM that I've tried.Would be great if that can be fixed on this ROM but it's not such a huge problem.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
By the looks of it, it is simply a case of updating the fonts, if so then it will be sorted for the next update.
[HTC Desire S] craftman:
Before digging yourself into this problem,I can report iGO is perfectly aligned to the screen, only the first startup is problematic because of the notification bar. Exiting and restarting the program eliminates this problem, so I think you don't have to take care of this. Maybe some configuration error in sys.txt of the program.

Anyway, can't wait for your Desire SU full Sense 4.1 port, I tried a Chinese One ST ROM port which was amazing, fast and free from to resizing problems becuase of the same screen resolution. Due to the lack of the support of my native language (and the Chinese bloatwares plus the restrictions in China regarding Play Store etc.) I had to suspend this ROM for now, I'm sure you will do a much better work ;)
[HTC Desire S] SamePaul:
I think it is somehow related to region, because for me it showed only options like English(Iraq), English(Arab emirates) etc. Not even English(United States). I believe your ROM has all necessary files, just hides stuff for other regions.

I usually do read things before I "complain".

What I mean - you can learn unlock door lock by left hand or even by foot fingers, but it would be convenient for you to use right hand (unless you're left-hander of course). For me "Menu" should open menus.

It might be. I personally never hold any device with real Sense 4 lite, but this feature presented in all ports to Desire S. So I though it is part of Sense Light. Great you're considering add it.

I know. That's exactly what I meant by "you can't customize". Order on Homescreen defines order on Lockscreen without choice. On full Sense you can have different set of shortcuts on Lockscreen and on Homescreen.
