Where I have been testing noticed that if you flash over the top without a full wipe of the phone, then you just need to go into superSU on first boot so it updates the binaries. I suspect this was the problem you had.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
You mean the person on the other end is not clear to you, or your not clear to them? Havent noticed an issue myself yet, but will do some more testing to see if I can recreate.

Did you do a full wipe before install or just a partial wipe?
[HTC Desire S] eternalfrozen:
Hi can you port me your Htc sense touch input?
[HTC Desire S] mizerok:
Any news about next version? Interesting how the process is going on

[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Atm I am still fighting this video playback issue, have fixed a omcvdec issue, but have discovered that the hwcomposer is throwing an error at first boot which I think is also connected to it, so am looking into that at the moment.

As soon as I have that cracked then it will be a case of smali edits for the recent apps and apm, then will release as the next beta,

that will follow up with the addition of some quick settings as beta 3, then I will go through and tidy up any excess files and any bugs that are left over (assuming that I dont break anything when I try to add quick settings) and release as an RC version, if all is well then will release final version.

Thats the planned path for this build anyway, it just takes me a little longer to get things done as its just me and I am brand new to all this so am learning as I go basically, but hopefully you'll all find the end results worth the wait :)
[HTC Desire S] mizerok:
Thanks for your quick answer! Hope all is going to be good.

P.S just run antutu. Graphical test with warriors starts with different colors. Ones it normal, ones it green, ones it blue...
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Yeah, thats just part of antutu's test process. (If you watch the video in the play store you'll see that it starts red on there.):D
[HTC Desire S] sunand777:
Yes ..i mean the person in the other end is not clear from me...i do a full wipe before install...
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Okay, not had that problem myself yet but will do some more test calls and see if I can recreate it. Has anyone else had a problem?
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Sorry eternal, I missed your post earlier, I'll post the files for you in the morning, (well later on this morning should I say.):rolleyes:
[HTC Desire S] tnZ:
Tried calling a few times the last days and all works fine. No problems with.
[HTC Desire S] mizerok:
No problems with your ROM at all :laugh:
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Good news guys, have video playback finally working, :victory: I admit its still a little buggy so still a couple of things to sort out but that shouldn't take too long.

Will be giving it a rest for tonight and off out with the misses tomorrow so hopefully, if all goes well with the smali edits, hope to have an update for you by mid week. :D will keep you all updated as things progress.
[HTC Desire S] mizerok:
Awaiting for beta 2 :D Maybe you can remapp recent apps to search key? Will be good, because i don't use this key, and opening recent apps by one click will be faster than wait 1-2sec for it opens

P.s look into sabsa primes 8.5 camera and lockscreen...
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
alirez_sos states in his opening post that he doesn't allow people to use his work, so I wont be using his rom for anything, however, lowveld has already kindly said that I am welcome to poke and prod around his rom and take what I need from it, but as to whether I implement the full lock screen I have to be honest I'm undecided atm, it will all come down to how well I can carry it off, (pls remeber I'm still learning how to do all this) and will be something I look into once the rom i fully stable, odds are I may well end up doing it as an optional addon so that people have a choice between the lite and full lock screen depending on there taste.

As for the recent apps button, as there is a bit of a split in the community, with some people prefer the traditional long press home while others prefer to have it bound to the search key with long press search, I might put up both ways with people just flashing there prefered choice.
[HTC Desire S] first_damned:
Yes same procedure you did before
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Sorry for the delay, yeah same procedure, wipe all, flash Rom then flash boot.IMG through fastboot as your HTC-dev unlocked.
[HTC Desire S] tnZ:
Happy Birthday thantos (:
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Just too let you all know I'm delaying the update by a day or so as I seemed to have some heavy battery drain today, so I want to run some tests on the Rom first to see what caused it and make sure I haven't introduced a bug that's causing wakelocks or something similar. No point giving you guys something that's going to suck your battery dry in rapid time.

Sir my camera shots like this. Also while using the cam. View attachment 1580494

[HTC Desire S] jsis83:
This update will be perfect ...
[HTC Desire S] first_damned:
Last night while running this rom my calls kept cutting off, when I restarted my phone calls would work again for a minute then hang up again and wasn't able to make calls. I had to flash another rom.
[HTC Desire S] spavian:
The same
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Okay other than some preview corruption affecting just a couple of users I believed that the camera was perfect. I don't know why so many users would have no problem and then a small numbers of users would have such a catastrophic failure. Can you please reflash the Rom doing a full wipe in ext 4, then using the with full wipe option in the installer, then pull the logcat after using the camera on a completely fresh install so I can see what is happening. (please ensure that it is a complete logcat from the moment of boot till the moment you leave the camera app.)
[HTC Desire S] zacman:
hi thantos, could we get an update today? thnaks.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
I'm running some tests on the battey life at the moment as I ran into some battery drain that I want to check out first.
[HTC Desire S] jsis83:
and how are the tests?. :fingers-crossed:
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
So far so good, running since 8:30 this morning with medium to heavy usage, wifi on, several calls and texts, about 30 mins testing the camera, half dozen reboots, music running for about an hour, some web browsing, plus using XDA app of course, all with syncing fully enabled, (so no disabling locations etc that people normally due to save power) and currently at 45% battery. So it is looking like it was a rouge app that might have been the cause. (I did a clean install this morning with only minimal apps installed from the play store fresh rather than restoring data to eliminate that.) I am going to fully charge in a bit then will unplug overnight just to ensure that there definatly isn't any issues and if it looks good I will upload RC 1 first thing in the morning.

The good news is, that other than the bugs I reported earlier with the seven screen Rosie everything seems to work fine. Have taken loads of shots with the camera, I tested burst mode by removing the 20 shot limit and was taking 60-70+ shots with no issues, panoramic was working just fine, hdr shots was working, still take a few seconds to process but that I think is just hardware related. Video records no problem at all resolutions and you can capture all the stills you like while filming, not a single force close at any time and absolutely no corruption, I literally tried every possible setting combination I could thing of to try and cause an issue and couldn't create one no matter how hard I tried. GPS was locking on and holding its lock, let it track for 30 mins or so and not a single reset so that should be fine. Unfortunately the 1 thing that I cannot test is audio over Bluetooth as I don't have a Bluetooth headset etc, but hopefully that will also be working correctly now. (whenever I can afford it I will try and get a cheap headset to test with.) I really have tested this update hard to try to guarantee that it is as bug free as I can possibly make so hopefully you guys will be able to flash it and go without having to worry about anything.
[HTC Desire S] jsis83:
Its fantastic. I early tomorrow... :o Thanks you.
[HTC Desire S] Taurdas:
is this update gonna be based desire x 1.18.401.1 RUU?

else, will you consider this next update?
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
I will consider this for the next update. My main concern for now has been to get the Rom stable and as bug free as humanly possible. I'm hoping that that has now been achieved, and if so I will do the final release and start working on the optional extras that people have been requesting, it just makes sense to me to ensure that the Rom itself is rock solid, that way if any bugs appear I will know that it is definitely down to the optional components and not the Rom which will make trouble easier and a lot quicker. With regards to the desire 1.18 ruu itself it will come down to whether any of the changes will affect us specifically, last update I checked for the desire x only had had camera files updated that were useless to us, in cases like that I don't think it is worthwile as we end up removing all the updated files to make it compatible with our handset anyway.
[HTC Desire S] Metallurgico:
You are awesome! Thanks for your time and your dedication!
[HTC Desire S] craftman:
Looking forward for the update. Before I forget, my battery drain (after 170+ hours uptime) has been solved with the already mentioned restart, since then I achieved 3 days with one charge (2 times in a row) with moderate usage and 2+ hours of calls + ~1:30 screen on. Nice work.

Anyway you can use the BT connection of your desktop's ot laptop's adapter(if you have any), they can provide you the same BT services as a handsfree speaker or headset. With this you can use the built-in microphone and speaker of the PC, no need to invest in a cheap headset neither.

Don't want to be intrusive, but do you still planning to port a full Sense ROM (like One SV)?
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Yeah I am still planning on doing a sense full port once this is completely stable.

I did try your suggestion of using a pc with a Bluetooth dongle, but the one I have is a bit old now, and I don't have the drivers for it, and win 7 only loads the drivers for file transfer only, will probably get a new Bluetooth adapter for the pc first then a headset when I can. (thanks to my damn POTS I'm not able to work atm so god knows when that'll be, but hopefully mot to long), don't like the idea of not being able to test absolutely everything properly before I release it to you all.
[HTC Desire S] nodeffect:
I don't know what to say but I just have 3 words for u.... I love you... Thanks for everything... :D
[HTC Desire S] holvoetn:
Let it come, I know at least 2 people willing to test that BT part for you :)
[HTC Desire S] jsis83:
Publishes the rom and try us.
[HTC Desire S] craftman:
Second best thing today (first was the world has not been ended :) ).

Back to your BT dongle. Did you tried to fire it up with the chip manufacturer's driver? I'm using an MSI BT dongle on Windows 7 x64, but not with the MSI driver (I'm not sure it exists anyway), I've downloaded the driver from www.broadcom.com as it is a BC2045 chipset. I suggest you to check the ID of the dongle in device manager (or with AIDA64 or any hardware inventory software), and search for the chip's and not the dongle's driver on the manufacturer's site. Hope I was clear and you can fix your stick the way I did.
[HTC Desire S] signfinder:
+1. Many devices work with bluesoleil drivers on Windows & x64
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Thanks will try bluesoliel and see if they work. I need to do some adjustments to the aroma script, then once that sorted will be uploading the update for you all.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Any one know where I can get just the drivers in bluesoleil as the full software trial only allows 2mb of data transfer and I can't afford the £20 price tag for it, so thought if I could get the drivers only that it might work through the standard windows Bluetooth interface then
[HTC Desire S] jsis83:
What's the problem with the tests now?. We can help you?
[HTC Desire S] batmobile_bang:
I have only one very quer problem, had it on fallout too, maybe it's sense related.

Once in a few days when I unlock my device I have ghost clicking - its like my screen is being touched at random. It does stop if I lock my device and use it after a while, but it's almost impossible to use it instantly.

I had doubts on my ageing battery and replaced it with a anker 1600mah, but still see the problem.

I'm quite sure it's not rom related, but any pointers in solving this would be great.
[HTC Desire S] Taurdas:
i had the same on fallout 5, and sabsa 6~8...

right now using viper, waiting for the update from thantos to try out this rom.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Ah mo problem, was just wondering if those drivers could be got as stand alone but it looks like there integrated into the software so it doesn't matter. Am about to start uploading the new update for you.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Hmm, don't know on this one, if your getting it across multiple roms are you sure it's not possibly an issue with the digitizer as fallout and this Rom use completely different bases.
[HTC Desire S] mizerok:
Waiting for the link :)
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Just waiting for the upload to finish
[HTC Desire S] mizerok:
So we will have a resized full sense 4 cam? Its's awesome !

Отправлено из моего iPad используя Tapatalk HD
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
thats what we had before, just that for some reason that apk kept silently force closing (dont ask me why as far as I could tell it was identical to the current one) so don't expect any new features, it looks like it somehow is able to detect the handsets capabilities and limits itself (I believe for example the one X can do slo mo recording but its not active for us.)

I am however working on trying to get the sense 4.5 camera.apk working properly (it just dorce closes atm when ever you try to access the settings for it.)
[HTC Desire S] mizerok:
Ok, stock cam is also very good and fully working )) will have rc1 today, yahoo
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
yeah it is uploading as we speak just seems to be really slow again
[HTC Desire S] zacman:
hi friend, i think you tested new camera apk. i want to ask something about properties of camera apk. fast burning shot and panoroma and non-bluestrip on landscape mode when hd video playing. these are no problem in Desire XS 2.01 camera apk. so i think if one of these properties is wrong, Thantos must use old camera apk. if i'm wrong sorry and thanks.
[HTC Desire S] mizerok:
Nope, i haven't tested any new camera.apk, but i have absolutely no bugs at desire xs 2.0.1
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Well about 10mins all and it should have finished uploading (at long bloody last) changelog on secound post has already been updated post has already been updated
[HTC Desire S] craftman:
As I mentioned, I have a Broadcom based dongle, and using this link when installing mine, hope it helps you:

[HTC Desire S] PVL_93_RU:
Still no remapping of multitaskin dialog to the Home H/W key instead of Search key?
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
it should only be on the search key if you choose that in the installer, else it is on the menu button, this can be changed in the settings/display and buttons so that it is either set to single press menu for menu and long press menu for recent apps, or so that you single press for recent apps and long press for menu depending on your personal preference. I personally don't really see the difference between long pressing home and long pressing menu so it hasn't been a big priority compared to some of the other issues in the rom.
[HTC Desire S] mizerok:
Downloading, will install it with XI kernel and pimp my rom tweaks ! =)
[HTC Desire S] zacman:
yeah, i'm downloading now and THANKS THANTOS.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
thanks for the link but unfortunately my dongle doesn't work with the broadcom drivers, it does work perfect with the bluesoliel software but you have to pay £17 for the privilege which I cant afford atm so users will have to do the bluetooth testing for me
[HTC Desire S] finistere:
Well, you yourself prefer the function on the menu key, if I remember correctly. It's your ROM, so leave it like it is. :) I like it this way, too, btw. ;)
[HTC Desire S] zihinsiz:
the difference is home button is standard for recent apps on all roms and even official sense. It is annoying not to have it, even it is a minor issue.

Sent from my Desire S
[HTC Desire S] PVL_93_RU:
Are there other issues? When I look at the buglist in the first post - all what I see is the above-mentioned recents remapping and the task manager numbers? (and the bluetooth that you and few users above were talking about)
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Oops yeah, I will adjust that to mention the bugs with 7 screen Rosie, there's 2 that I have mentioned in the thread,

1: the default scene on first boot is shifted 1 screen to the left, (this caused by it still expecting screen 3 to be the home screen when it's now screen 4.) This will be fixed soon.

When in the widgets list the homescreen thumbnails won't scroll over to show screen six and seven. To add to these screens you will need to pull up the widget list from these specific screen's. I am looking into and will be fixed a soon as I can but with Christmas here I don't know how much free time I will have to investigate it.

The task manager in quicksettings reading isn't actually a bug, it just doesn't include memory that is in permanent use by things like the kernel etc, it just shows what is actually able to be used by apps.

Also the power efficiency option in quick settings doesn't appear to be working, bug tracking on this is ongoing while I try to see what's happening with this.

With regards to the recent apps on home, HTC has remapped it for every single sense 4 phone there is, they did away with the menu button on handsets completely and instead replaced it with an app switch button, which you can remap through settings exactly as I have set up our menu button. In that sense this is identical to what you would get if you bought a new phone already running sense 4, however a lot off devs have remained recent apps back to the home button and removed or disabled the option in settings.
[HTC Desire S] jsis83:
I can flash "amidabuddha :Battery % Desire XS beta 2" in this version?
[HTC Desire S] zacman:
hi thantos thanks again, and my poinst are below.

1- there is no profile widget again,

2- there is no live weather widgets and lockscreen settings,

3-and again some widgets are disappearing in 3rd screen from left after reboot.

4-sometimes turning with home button from left last screen to home, screen light seems to be flu.

all of other properties are good and lastly, i think i will prefer to use your before rom Desire XS2.01.

thanks again.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Sorry I forgot to add in the extra widgets to the package, you can just flash this:

http://d-h.st/HCp

and you will have all the widgets back.

The live weather videos and the ability to set different lockscreen are a sense full feature, not sense lite and as they require some framework changes to activate correctly, (basically the same as lowveld did with fallout and tricking the Rom into believing it is actually full sense and not sense lite) these will be added once I am sure the Rom is fully stable.

The disappearing widgets are down to things being installed to the sdcard, and Rosie loading up before the sdcard is fully mounted, this seems to be a problem that can occure across a number of sense 4 roms and is something I am looking into, however I haven't figured out a way to get the sdcard to mount earlier in the boot process just yet.
[HTC Desire S] zacman:
i flashed this package which you are upload before but they did not appear in setting widgets page.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Go to settings/apps then selects all apps tab, the scroll down and select HTC sense, then clear data.

Rosie will reload and all the New widgets will be available. I will reupload the Rom later with all the extra widgets already included so people won't have to go through this extra step.
[HTC Desire S] zacman:
thanks thantos for your interests. could you give a flashable your camera apk. i want to compare it before rom quality. thanks.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
You mean the old one? It doesn't work ay all with this version just closes when you try do anything with it. The weird thing is that it that the new one is an exact replica of the old one but works fine makes no sense at all. If it is picture quality you interested in checking then just compare the a picture of taken with 2.01 to one taken with RC 1, I personally couldn't see a difference.
[HTC Desire S] spavian:
Nice rom ,but the camera corruption is still here , only in 3M settings is working ok. If i put it in 5M ,the corruption apear .
[HTC Desire S] zacman:
yes but i think before camera apk is better good quality.and is it flashable to RC1?
[HTC Desire S] Put_Nick:
Flashed new rom...and on first look everything looks the same. :) I was 10-15 days on the old rom, and all I needed was working fine. I'm testing this one now, and I will report result about this. Thanks tantos... ;)
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
No, can't be flashed to RC 1, I had to change the overlay.so to correct the hwcomposer bug and it doesn't like it, you couldn't even take a single still with the old apk it just did a silent fc when you hit the capture button.
[HTC Desire S] zacman:
ok.thantos but live weather widgets can be flashable?
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Ok I have to admit I'm stumped as to why you have corruption, I really tested the camera hard to ensure it was bug free and running smooth.

Can you pull a logcat for me to go through so I can see if I can pinpoint what is happening with you that isn't happening with me.
[HTC Desire S] zacman:
ok. thantos but i turned back xs 2.01 and load all my backups. if i can find any live widgets which can be run with your rom, it will be good for me. thanks again.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
The live weather is something that will be added as soon as the Rom is fully stable, at the moment though people seem to have issues that just don't happen for me, like the preview corruption. for mr the rom is perfect in everything I ask it to do, camera is smooth and fluid, with real nice pictures. GPS is perfect, no lag in the homescreens, menus app draw or anywhere else. BUT, other people are having problems, I feel that it is better to fix these first before I add anything else that could add further problems with no way for me to know whether those issues are new or connected to some bug that already existed.
[HTC Desire S] gabanciano:
Finally! I'm longing for this! :D Thanks T. yodabest. :D :D :D keep it up!
[HTC Desire S] scan6:
Except smooooooth theres nothing to say:)
[HTC Desire S] jsis83:
Camera works perfectly to me:

- Wipe data factory, wipe dalvik, wipe cache, wipe battery and wipe all partitions (except sdcard).
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Thanks guys, good to hear its running smooth for you all. I do need to apologize for missing out the GPS conf in the installer though, you where meant to be able to choose your GPS conf based on your location through the installer and I forgot to add it.

Are the dialectics showing correctly now for those who had problems before?
[HTC Desire S] finistere:
New version looks very good. To be honest, I don't notice any differences from version b2.01. Everything's working and smooth.

Just a few points concerning the installer:

Twitter is still always installed, no matter if it's selected or not.

Facebook has not become an optional install.

Choosing not to install HTC Notes still installs the Notes provider.
