Keep in mind that this ROM is Sense Lite (not full), so some of the fancy features are not available, like weather lock screen. I guess you are coming from Sense 3.x, whatever GB had, I don't really remember, sry. :)

1. Lite, not available

2. Lite, not available

3. I'm afraid it is also not available on Lite

4. I don't really remember having a red background, but if you mean a simple picture only, than you could just download or take it from any older ROM, I like the default ICS background for HTC too much to bother with anything else :)

5. There are quite a few font changer apps, this ROM is already prerooted, so you shouldn't have trouble with changing the fonts with anything you would like, google up some guide, and go for it :)

6. From Sense4, the typical HTC devices does not have menu button anymore, only "Back", "Home", "Recent Apps" buttons. You can change it like the previous post mentioned, but you can't use longpress home for recent apps anymore.

cheers
[HTC Desire S] zilexa:
OMG how stupid of me, I should have realized it is Sense Lite !

Thanks, will keep using this ROM for a while and search for a rom with the "full" Sense version that is just as stable and good as this one.
[HTC Desire S] niravnn:
If you want full sense rom than viper saga is very stable than other full sense out there
[HTC Desire S] Librastar:
Keep in mind the all the full sense ROMs have a UI resizing issue, all the full sense ROMs have a smaller UI,
[HTC Desire S] hundeva:
My all time favourite Sense Full is Fallout Evolution, that was probably the best for me. I tried Viper as well, tho only an earlier version, it felt a bit clumsy and laggy, no idea if it is better now.

But all in all, XS is by far the best, even tho it is Lite. I am particularly excited about XSV, which will be Full. :)
[HTC Desire S] teadrinker:
Though fallout is lite sense, with some extra features enabled from full sense
[HTC Desire S] hundeva:
That is true, but it has everything I want from Full :)

Hi,

today I found that QR Droid (I have the last app) didn't works anymore, it starts, I can see live images from camera but it didn't "focus", even if I touch the screen...and then it cannot read the QR code.

I tried also another qr app with same result.

Normal use of camera (picture & video) works right.

I remember (and also from log of qr droid) that I used it.

In this moment I have rom XS 1.1 with patched kernel 3.0.76 from amidabuddha.

Can someone, regardless of kernel version, so kindly to do a test and let me know if it work (with rom and kernel version) ?

Thanks.
[HTC Desire S] hundeva:
I am on XS 1.1, with overclocked kernel, works perfectly for me.
[HTC Desire S] LoveSicKWAR:
This Rom definitely has the most anticipated update!
[HTC Desire S] fblasot:
Thanks for your reply.

When you point to a QR code, can you see the camera do the focusing ?

At what distance (cm) you can see sharp and the app recognize) the QR code ?

This distance is the same if you want make a closeup picture ?

Thanks,

Francesco
[HTC Desire S] Vodka69er:
The lockscreen shortcut keys keep dissapering for me. Any idea behind the cause of this ?

Thanks !
[HTC Desire S] hundeva:
Well I don't really notice it focusing, weird because a while ago (probably on older version of QR Droid and/or XS) it was definitely focusing. Also, if I remember right, it had a frame as well, but there is none now, tho it might be another Barcode scanner app I'm talking about, not sure.

On a 19" monitor with 1280×1024 resolution, I googled "qr code" and tried some from about 25 cm, and after a few seconds, it successfully decodes the code.

About closeup pictures, it depends on what is the current object, but it in average, I would say yes. Please note, I rarely ever make pictures with my phone, so it is just a wild guess.

cheers
[HTC Desire S] fblasot:
Hi,

if I try to scan a QR code displayed on my computer screen it works...

if I take a picture of a printed QR code and then pass it to the app it works...

but real scan of QR code from the app doesn't work becouse the image it is not focused...

I have also reflashed patched kernel and uninstalled/installed QR app...

I wish to try the b2b kernel but after flashed phone boot always to recovery and I think the problem is in the aroma script since choosing Sense 4 the lib partition it is not mounted...

It is not a big problem...I will wait for the XS 1.2 and then perform a full wipe...
[HTC Desire S] hundeva:
That is kinda weird, if I'll run into a QR code which isn't on a monitor, I'll definitely check it out.
[HTC Desire S] like.that:
Awesome firmware! But there is one big bug at Russian language.

In the open folder button label "Add" does not fit and the last letter is transferred to the new line. Because of this increased height allocated to the folder name.

In Russian it look like: "Добавит

ь"

Not very pretty. I hope this will solve the problem in the next version if they will.
[HTC Desire S] fblasot:
As already told I tried other apps and they didn't work but today I found some other that works !

I can clearly see that the app is focusing until it get the qr code.

It's very strange that QR Droid on the same phone with same rom and patched kernel can work or not...maybe a little bug in the app...
[HTC Desire S] zilexa:
I found FallOut.. but now you got me curious about XSV.. where can I track the development of that rom?
[HTC Desire S] madboxgr:
the development of this rom is currently stopped at the moment a few pages back there was an alpha version to test if you want.
[HTC Desire S] hundeva:
It is developed by thantos as well, but it is in a very early alpha version. I was using it for a few weeks, and it is already nice, but some things are missing etc. It was mentioned in one of the earlier pages of this thread, dont know where exactly.

---------- Post added at 11:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:12 AM ----------

Yesterday I saw a QR code on a beer, tried to scan it, and absolutely nothing, so yea, something is wrong there.
[HTC Desire S] 441Excelsior:
will be camera image stabilisation fixed in next release? it's the biggest disadvantage of this rom (second one is lower volume)
[HTC Desire S] fblasot:
I check logcat when using QR and Barcode Scanner (that works) and found the difference in "Continuous Auto Focus", QR Droid set to 1 while the other to 0.

And if in Barcone Scanner I set to use "Continuous Auto Focus" also it doesn't decode, so seems this the problem.

I have already mailed qr dev about the possible problem and they told that they will fix in mid or end of august.

[HTC Desire S] 441Excelsior:
I haven't experienced this behavior...anyways, why do you install apps on sdcard? internal memory is big enough to have all apps in internal mem (except games)

That doesnt mean anything. He said he has some personal things to take care first. We should respect his condition and wait for him, and when his gonna be ready he will release an update.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Hi all, just to let you all know I am still about, but still having health issues, work is slowly progressing on the update as and when I can.

I do keep an eye on the thread and make a note of any bug reports that people raise so that I can try to look at them as and when I can.

Please understand that due to my limited ability to sit at a computer for any length of time means that what may be the most simple of tasks can end up taking days or even longer to complete, (take for example just creating the new folder structure and moving all the files to the right place for the new aroma script, it took me early 2 weeks just to do that.).

But, I promise you all that I will never quit on this rom, and come hell or high water it will get finished in time. I thank you all for your continued patience, and for the overwhelming support for this rom that you have all shown even after such a long wait for 1.2.

[HTC Desire S] 441Excelsior:
can also unlock animation be activated on lite sense?

but is already been taken from my device,

you can check if that`ll be working with desire_XS

just for starters;)...

rename iit and push via ADB from recovery, fix permissions, and reboot...
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
If I recall correctly their are issues with trying to set landscape mode with sense lite, I think that it was that some of the code was missing to activate it natively, although this can be forced easily enough, there are apps on the market that will do this, but then you have the issue that a number of the sense lite widgets don't support landscape like their sense full counterparts, so you end up with the fullsize portrait version in landscape which causes allnsorts of issues.
[HTC Desire S] 441Excelsior:
in full sense 4 widgets sometimes get stuck in landscape mode too (on SVHD rom)

People, how to change to function of menu button?
[HTC Desire S] DieLyn:
Maybe read the original post (OP) first ? This was taken from there.

After first boot go to setting/ display and buttons/ Recent apps button and select press for menu, press and hold for recent apps. this will make your buttons function normally except that recent apps will be on long press menu rather than long press home.
[HTC Desire S] bubi90:
Could you please write me how to OC @ 1,2 or 1,3 GHz with a clean reinstall?

I've never done it before.

Thanks
[HTC Desire S] madboxgr:
First of all you need a custom kernel that supports overclock. When u istalled the Rom did you select the patched kernel? If not you should download the latest Amidabuda's patched kernel and istall it through recovery. The next step is to download an app from store that will help you with the OC. Check for cpu frill or something similar. Used it with caution. You dont want to burn your Phone. OC it till 1.2Ghz for start
[HTC Desire S] bubi90:
When I tap on my personal profile contact, people app crashes. Just my problem?
[HTC Desire S] 441Excelsior:
I think yes because when I was using this rom I didn't have any problems
[HTC Desire S] bubi90:
As a first impression after a few days of use amidabuddha's patched kernel seems to have a longer battery life

[HTC Desire S] Ebif_GSM:
Now that 4.1.1 has come to desire x because these models port to Do ??

Thanks .
[HTC Desire S] NVardan:
The 4.1.1 ROM isn't difficult to port, the real difficulty is the kernel part. Devs can't make sense compatible kernels for JB and our device, because they need some parts that HTC doesn't want to release for our device. So theoretically, we probably won't see neither JB and Sense 4+ nor JB and Sense 5 ROMs, unless, a miracle happens, or someone manages to build kernels with the help of HTC Sensation's sense compatible JB kernels.
[HTC Desire S] Ebif_GSM:
I hope that will be built .

Thank you .
[HTC Desire S] maciclazar:
Just checked Incredible S android development and I saw that inc s has sense 5 rom, so it is possible to port now?
[HTC Desire S] asgardr:
It was always possible ( to port a rom )

we could port as many JB roms as we wish;)

but they won`t be able to boot- yet...

...reading carefully again,

we may discover:

it is kernel, that is a problem here...

we do not have it,

and even if we would,

JB kernels on aosp roms, cause severe battery drain...

For now, no one seems to be able to tell,

what would happen on a sense roms...

nor it is fully checked on < unimaginable > vivo,

which is in a very early stage of development...

.. some progress has been made- that`s for sure,

yet, for now, it does not affect us- saga users- in any other way

but as a beacon in the dark....
[HTC Desire S] NVardan:
But the good news is, that the ROM does boot on IncS, which has the same hardware, as our device. So, there is still a chance for us to get a working ION kernel which could later be used in a Sense 5 ROM.

Not mentioning, that there is already a DHD team also working on a similar ROM. They even gave a list with schedule, which devices are going to be next, after they've finished the DHD versions, but sadly, our device wasn't in the list (the strange part is, that there were One V and Desire C, but the most similar device to DHD is probably our Desire S).
[HTC Desire S] asgardr:
true...

but even if the sources will have been released

there is still needed someone

to build of it a kernel for us...

I, personally, am not that keen on seeing

JB sense 5 rom on my device,

for which sense 4, is already quite a burden to pull...

If you`d only start porting roms just for fun-

just for yourself, you`d have seen-

there is so much icecream to taste,

that jelly, becomes like a far, distant thought

concerning some,

yet unseen and just now, not really missed future:good:
[HTC Desire S] totalnoob34:
My opinion is that we should keep focused on CM roms, on the grounds that sense 5 feels too heavy for our hardware. I think that Sense 4+ on JB is the max we can drive smoothly, but if some dev wants to try and amaze us he'll be more than welcome :D

If I helped, hit the thanks button! :)
[HTC Desire S] NVardan:
Seems we're going a bit off-topic here, but Sense 5 is everything but heavy. It runs much more smoothly on any device, than older Sense versions. It's flat, without any useless 3D effects and decently tweaked to work good with hardware.
[HTC Desire S] niravnn:
Someone should create a thread and keep discussing sense5 better or sense4 ;) we are spaming this thread? ;)

Hi all. Firstly my apologies for the extended absence from the forums here, unfortunately I have been battling an illness. Although I still have it it is finally under control to the point where I am almost able to have a normal life.

I am considering coming back to this Rom as it was never fully finished, but, as I will basically have to start from scratch it will take a little time, so I am curious whether there are still people using this Rom and would like to see it updated. Please let me know your thoughts.

Welcome back, hope you feel much better.

After almost 2 years, still on your ROM, but to be honest, I didn't updated to the latest version, because one of the test versions was so solid I had no reason to move on (and there were no added feature I was looking for in the latter versions). So looking forward to see something from you worth upgrading again. ;)

However, I will advise everyone now that, although I am better, I do still have off days, so there will be no eta's on anything, it will just be a case of its done when its done.
