Thanks alot, I'll go through it in a bit see if anything jumps out at me as to whats causing the error. at the moment the only thing I can think to try is to go into apps and wipe rosie data to see if they reappear, but that would mean resetting all your widgets back up.
[HTC Desire S] gabanciano:
This is weird. I used the music player and the icons appear for about 3 seconds then the icons are gone again. :o

Good luck man! you can do it! :)
[HTC Desire S] zihinsiz:
Hi, I reported the missing lock screen shortcuts issue earlier too. But after I did what you suggested (in personalize menu untick and retick "show lockscreen shortcuts") and flashed 1.6 over 1.5, my problem is fixed. No more absent or disappearing lockscreen shortcuts. :)

But I don't know which solved the issue exactly.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
just checking but do they reappear when you do a reboot and then vanish again or do they just fail to appear even on boot?
[HTC Desire S] teadrinker:
Lol, this Rom has inspired me to get my One v (2.22.401.1) port into a useable state. I'm actually using it now, maybe i'll even feel like releasing it sometime :p

[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Hi great to hear this is inspiring people, can never have to many devs:laugh: Look forward to seeing the results.:good:
[HTC Desire S] gabanciano:
When i do a reboot, yes the icons are there but when i turn off the screen then on. it's gone. :eek:
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Could you try reflashing 1.6 over the top with just a cache and dalvik cache wipe, see if that works
[HTC Desire S] gabanciano:
YES! That thing worked! You're the man!! I have my new daily rom now! :3 yay!
[HTC Desire S] mizerok:
HEy thantos! How are you? Any news about new version ? =)
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Excellent glad to hear it's sorted, hopefully then it was just a case of a bad flash that was causing problems

Am busy working on it right now. (smali is a ***** to work with), might post some screenshots up later to tease you all with whats coming up when I release the new build, either monday or tuesday.;)
[HTC Desire S] mizerok:
sounds cool =) will see screenies

Missing apps after reboot.

Hope I didn't miss it in a search, but every time I reboot, quite a few of my Playstore apps, such as Bloomberg, Soundhound, CNN and others don't come back on the relevant Homepage. They are still in the app drawer, though.

Any ideas?
[HTC Desire S] niravnn:
I know this is an annoying question but when is the next update coming? I can't wait ;)
[HTC Desire S] LitonX:
i remember that there is a know issue about apps installed on the sdcard wich makes shortcut disappear. Try to switch the concerned apps on internal storage.
[HTC Desire S] martusc:
Thanks. Makes sense. Internal memory so small and I don't reboot that often. It is probably easier to bring the shortcuts back each time than slowing it all down with big apps.
[HTC Desire S] Quark^2:
I have the same with the XDA app and 9gag app. I did not install those in the sdcard, everything internal.

They only show up after restarting Sense.

Any ideas? It's annoying.
[HTC Desire S] teadrinker:
The xda app installs by default to the sdcard...
[HTC Desire S] Quark^2:
Ah, learned something new then. Moving back now..

Hei guys ! Can i use this rom with hboot 2.02.0002 and radio 3831.19.00.110 ? It's my first attempt to flash an HTC
[HTC Desire S] niravnn:
Yes you can. And don't forget to flash boot.img if you are s-on/ htc dev unlocked
[HTC Desire S] s0higher:
I'm on S-off. So the steps are Wipe data/Factory reset, wipe cache, dalvik cache and install zip ?!?!
[HTC Desire S] niravnn:
Yes full wipe except sd card.

And install the zip
[HTC Desire S] teadrinker:
You can't be s-off on hboot 2.02.0002 (well, apart from with xtc clip). If you unlocked the device through htcdev.com, then it's still s-on, and you need to flash the boot.img in fastboot.
[HTC Desire S] s0higher:
Is this phone s off ? What steps should i make from this point )
[HTC Desire S] niravnn:
Yes your phone is s-off. Nothing wrong about that
[HTC Desire S] s0higher:
Works like a charm guys, thx for your help :D
[HTC Desire S] martusc:
How did you get s-off on hboot 2.02.0002? Would love to achieve that, but seems a schlep to first Hboot down, flas, then Hboot up again.

I came via HTC-Dev.
[HTC Desire S] scan6:
There is a guide in this forum to help us upgrade to Android 4.0.4 without s on.

Maybe he wasn't upgrading before getting s off
[HTC Desire S] teadrinker:
Following that guide wouldn't change your hboot version. I don't think he's s-off by revolutionary, either xtc clip or the phone was sold already s-off
[HTC Desire S] PVL_93_RU:
Thantos, what's the overall situation with your PC, etc., ATM?
[HTC Desire S] craftman:

[HTC Desire S] 441Excelsior:
can you fix camera image stabilization please?
[HTC Desire S] martusc:
Don't think there's been anything from thantos since April 3. Hope all is well, that POTS sounds scary. My bet is he's working hard on v1.2. In the meantime this ROM still makes me happy, even though a little jellybean seems appetising.
[HTC Desire S] Librastar:
Where is 1.2, desperately waiting :crying:
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Hi guys sorry for the quiet spell been a bit hectic as my other halfs brother and his fiance had their baby recently, so have been bouncing back and forth to the hospital. I have rebuilt my pc but found that neither of the drives were readable by the bios, so have spent alot of time scavanging parts and reflowing replacement components to try and a get a workable board to try and get.the drives working again. I have had some success, but it is limited, one of the drives the platters themselves were damaged somehow, so that is a complete write off, the other drive has heavy corruption, however I have managed to retrieve some of the data and I am sifting through it. Overall its looking like I am going to have to redo a lot of the alterations I had made from scratch, but I am still working away in the background and will bring you something as soon as I can. I'm afraid that it will be held up further due to several hospital appointments that I need to attend, and due to my local hospital not having anyone with the slightest idea how to treat my condition this involves a 110 mile round trip each time that wipes me out for a day or to by itself, let alone running through all their damn tests like a lab rat.

However an update will come, and as I am having to completely redo a lot of things, I plan to take time to go through all the posts that I have missed and try to include anything new that people may have brought up recently.
[HTC Desire S] niravnn:
No problem take your time. I'm using 1.1 version for few days so far no fc but 2 apps lags a lot.

FB app lags lot while scrolling and sometimes close without FC error.

SwiftKey is also works slow when I press key word appear after fraction of second sometime more than 1 second.

So far this is the most stable sense rom but I was using cm10.1 so just missing the performance and project butter. But still it doesn't give me problem and camera is way to better than cm10.1 so that's + point. I hope I don't get any lags when you release your next build.

Thanks so much for your work.

I appreciate it a lot

Still a noob ;)
[HTC Desire S] niravnn:

is it possible that in quick setting long press open the setting to that individual option like wifi

exactly like cm10.1 quick setting?

and can you add torch toggle in quicksetting?

still a noob ;)
[HTC Desire S] craftman:
I think this is because it is lite, and the other ROMs are resized full Sense ROMs. Someone will correct me if I am wrong.
[HTC Desire S] ahmed_ais:
Nice Rom ... I've few issues though:

Key-mapping is not standard as all other sense 4 Roms .. this might be OK for somebody but not me, is there any fix to remap them?

Homescreen count is only 5, I wish for more. I've searched the thread and this had been mentioned few times here but no fix for it. I even tried using Fallout Tweaks app from Fallout Rom without success (the app works and I could set the option but it does not apply).

I only use HTC keyboard and I can't find "Arabic Keyboard" for this Rom. I'm referring to "ParfieldIME" which is available for sense4a Roms like Fallout (tried on DesireXS but FC) and for sense4 Roms like SabsaPrime/ViperSaga (trued them too on DesireXS and FC) ... I don't use 3rd party keyboards so, is there a ParfieldIME for DesireXS?

Thank you for the hard work ...
[HTC Desire S] HA4ever:
ParfieldIME for Sense4 Roms will not work in this rom cuz it's based on Sense 4.1 lite

I tried to install the original Arabic ParfieldIME before by all ways and I couldn't.. I even tried the Sense 3.0 ParfieldIME (which works perfectly on Sense 3.6 roms) but still not working

btw, you can't change the number of homescreens due to the same reason which is the Sense 4 lite
[HTC Desire S] Skanob:
With my understanding, its not because it Lite or Full Sense 4. But its because of the screen resolution the ROM is made for. For this, it is for the resolution 800x480 (not exact about the size) versus other highers. You get the idea.

Having said that, because of the limited screen size, it uses the 4x4 icon size on rosie versus 6x6 on others.

Screen size is the reason, not just because its Lite or Full Sense 4. Remember, One SV has the same resolution as the Desire S. That's why a lot of us are pushing for a port for it because its Full Sense 4 designed for the screen resolution that our device have.

You may understand what I'm trying to say if you have used/tried/experience ViperSaga, a direct port from Full Sense of HTC One X.
[HTC Desire S] ahmed_ais:
That makes some sense to me. So neither Sense 4 (lite or full) nor Sense 4.1 Full will work.

Let me remind you that One V has the same resolution 800x480 like Desire S. However, there is a ParfieldIME for it which we are able to use with Fallout.

I guess we have to wait for ParfieldIME for Sense4.1 Lite Rom with 800x480 resolution
[HTC Desire S] HA4ever:
Exactly.. and I'm ready to extract the ParfieldIME as soon as HTC release Arabic rom for Sense4.1 Lite
[HTC Desire S] Librastar:
I have tried viper saga and found that its UI is the smaller then any other 4.1 ROM..now testing sabsa prime v16, its UI is little large from Viper but still small from Desire XS,
[HTC Desire S] Skanob:
Kinsly double check on what my respond is. Not for the Keyboard that you're looking for.

Well, you are correct. You guys need specific keyboard which is build for the CORRECT framework of the ROM. Sense 4 and up has its own distinct framework that most of the time, specific apps work with specific framework/sense version. Its not the same as previous Sense frameworks anymore.
[HTC Desire S] craftman:
OK, I was'nt clear enough but the same was in my answer too. Lite is for the low end devices (up to 800x480 screen resolution), so it exists in the form we need. Full is for newer and better devices, with higher screen resolution (except One SV/ST/SC etc.) so they need to be resized. So I was correct too, but not as precise as you. ;)
[HTC Desire S] 441Excelsior:
there is sense 4.1 full rom - SVHD

btw can you add secure box to messaging in next XS release?
[HTC Desire S] niravnn:
Hi I have a problem. I clean installed desire xs 1.1 and than installed amidabuddha patched kernel and after that it doesn't boot up. Recovery boot up automatically and I can't get a logcat. What is wrong I can't think of any other way.

I'm s-off by the way.

Any suggestions?
[HTC Desire S] StormShadowBK:
As far as I know, this is because this ROM is odexed for better performance. So it´s not enough to just flash the kernel.

I think this guide Posting 1591 will help you.

I haven´t tested it, because I actually do not use this ROM
[HTC Desire S] NVardan:
What is the version of your bootloader? Did you choose it right while flashing? Had the same problem because haven't chosen the right version. Also, if your boot loader isn't 2.XX.XXXX or 7.XX.XXXX the ROM won't boot.
[HTC Desire S] HelixH:
Could someone upload the "this" file again. I have trouble with the new Outlook.com app and 1.2 seems to still take a while.
[HTC Desire S] roman_kaczynski:
Can i use this rom with hboot 2.02.0002 S-ON and radio 3831.19.00.110?
[HTC Desire S] michelstokhorst:
Yes, you have the last radio.

You are s-on, flash boot.img whit fastboot.
[HTC Desire S] roman_kaczynski:
after flash boot.img with fastboot, I have black screen after reboot.
[HTC Desire S] jugg1es:
Did you check out the suggestion asgardr have you?

“It's not true that I had nothing on. I had the radio on.”*―*Marilyn Monroe
[HTC Desire S] michelstokhorst:
HTC-DEV unlocked users, don't forget to flash the boot.img of your chosen kernel via fastboot after flashing the Rom. The boot.img can be found in-

/extra/Kernel/(yourchosenkernelname)/
[HTC Desire S] roman_kaczynski:
In Aroma Installer: HBOOT ver 2.02.0002 and after Aroma Installer Finished I'm rebooting phone and fastboot flash boot boot.img from /extras/Kernel/B2B (in Aroma I check B2B), and after that I'm rebooting phone...
[HTC Desire S] LoveSicKWAR:
Yeah :)
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Due to the seperate lib partition being used you can't flash the kernel straight from the thread, but need to use the modded version from amidabudda's dev host account. If you search his thread he does explain in there how to go about flashing it. I will be including the latest versions of his kernels in the next release.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Could you try choosing patched kernel during install and see if that works, I believe if I recall correctly there is q bug in the installer for b2b that causes some specific files to not flash properly.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
All the file was was an altered build.prop that removed some tweaks. I will redo it and reupload in the morning.

As for 1.2 I am having to redo an awful lot from scratch as I lost pretty much everything, and the working Rom on my device was just to test a specific file, so didn't include anything else I had altered. While I am back and forth to the hospital I just don't have anywhere near the time I would like to spend on getting it all together, plus I am trying to rebuild desire XSV at the same time.

I will get it sorted in time, but I am afraid it will be a little longer yet as right at this moment I am only able to spend an hour or two a night on it. Once the Dr's finish all their poking and prodding I will be able to have at it at full steam again as I won't be so wiped out all the time.
[HTC Desire S] toxic-hero:
device encryption fix

could you do 1.2 in a way that when flashing the ROM /data partition gets formated so that there is 1MB of unused space left on it. that would fix the device encryption feature.

more on this here.

thanks!
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
I will have a look and see what I can do, but it may be something that will need to be flashed seperatly after install.
[HTC Desire S] toxic-hero:
that's all right too, thanks!
[HTC Desire S] Librastar:
[MENTION=2479331]thantos2024[/MENTION]

Please include an option to deselect stock apps during installation, because there are alot of apps which we do not use, like (car, tune-in, htc hub, locations etc) and please also fix the Auto Brightness..is too low when set to Auto..

and plz dont forget to update Stock apps.

After trying all the Sense 4.1 ROMs am back on Desire XS :) , and found that XS is the best so for in all means :good: , thanks thantos for giving such an addictive ROM...

Today I opened google play and I was unable to download apps cuz it keeps saying error code every time i press download.

maybe you could clear data of all google components, then wipe cache and dalvik

Hi,

It seems that my GPS is not working with this ROM. I need to have gps working for the runtastic application. Does anyone have some possible solution for this kid of problem? GPS was working without any bug on the other custom roms, but i wish to stay with this rom because of amazing smoothnes. Great job anyway. Just please help me to get gps back online. Thank you very much. :beer:

[HTC Desire S] Librastar:
I simply uninstalled the Google play update through Titanium and updated back OTA and it worked fine for me, without deleting any thing. :)
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
1.2 will offer alot more customization during the install process compared to the current version mainly thanks to Skanob, and I will try to ensure that all apps that can be updated will be.

As for auto brightness, that is a very subjective matter, while you find it to low, others will find it too bright etc. I have tried to find a happy medium, but to try and please everyone it would mean either changing the values every build, or putting so many levels of adjustment that it cause a negative effect on battery life. If enough people have an issue then I can look at having it hold off kicking the level down till the light levels drop slightly further, but I find it to work pretty well as it stands.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Yes it seems that the agps files arn't being installed properly during install, another work around is to download gps status from the market, then tell it to delete the agps data, and then redownload it, then wait while gps status gets a lock, (takes about 60 seconds or so) then the gps will be fine. This is what I have done and the gps guides me through the 110 mile trip to from the hospital without any issues.
[HTC Desire S] sgcko7:
Fixed. Thank you. You deserve 3 :beer: have a nice day.
[HTC Desire S] maciclazar:
Why did not I think of that? I reflashed whole rom for nothing :silly:
[HTC Desire S] Librastar:
I am saying that because I have check almost all the 4.1 ROMs and noticed that its auto brightness level gets very low in low light condition..

and i m missing "wake screen on sms" very much + one thing more plzzz don't forget the Facebook sync issue, it really annoyed me very much... :fingers-crossed:

It is really good but only issues with battery drain. Only during night I loose 20%,. Any solution for this? Thanks

[HTC Desire S] NVardan:
During the night, turn airplane mode on and wi-fi and every other connectivities off(if you don't use your phone during the night). Having airplane mode on the device won't catch radio signals and you will loose for about 5%.
[HTC Desire S] 441Excelsior:
you can force launcher to always stay in memory by build.prop tweak
[HTC Desire S] sssimo96:
Is this thread abandoned? It will be really a shame if true because its one of the best ROMs made for the Desire S.
[HTC Desire S] NVardan:
Thantos is working on the v1.2. You can read this in previous posts.
[HTC Desire S] Librastar:
anyone having batter drain issue can try to replace this build.prop file, its the same file from Desire XS with some safe mods,currently using my self with no issue,use any Root Explorer to replace your file in root/system..
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
No not abandoned, just run into a number of different issues that have delayed proceedings, (have a read back through the thread to get caught up.) I am working on rebuilding 1.2 as and when I can, but between my health and trips to the hospital it is a bit slow going I am afraid.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Hmm, not had that problem myself, and I use a number of ram hungery apps such as stock browser, TomTom sat nav etc. However, there will be some memory tweaks done in 1.2 which will hopefully eliminate any issues.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Have you used better battery stats to check for any rouge apps? I never disable anything, WiFi, mobile data background sync are all left on and I lose maybe 1% at night. Only time that changes is if an app either prevents it from fully sleeping, or keeps waking it up. To be suffering such a large drain I would he inclined to suspect that is what is causing your issue.

New version is being worked on, unfortunately due to computer issues I have had to start the update from scratch, this combined with hospital visits and my condition limiting the time I can sit at my comp in one session means that it will be a little longer yet before it is ready.
