It also shows that my phone is using more current and to close apps while I'm charging phone so idk if if battery or charger?
[HTC Desire S] Saf98:
Got new battery works properly now.

Edit: it's because of the HTC charger USB adapter but with Samsung charger it charges properly...
[HTC Desire S] faddys123:
i've got a problem, i been trying out all the roms but having the same problem i thought going back to htc sense would fix it.

When i set up a new rom and add my google account, everything syncs well but then maybe a day or so later all my google account is removed and when i go settings add new account, google account option isn't there any more.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Just so you all know what is happening, I have re-installed all the tools I use for decompiling etc, and I am currently rebuilding my list of changes to apks, libs etc, so that I have everything to hand. Once I have completed this I will then start sorting the first small update, which will just fix some of the smaller day to day issues, such as the gps etc. as well creating a whole new aroma installer that will allow a far greater degree of customizing than it currently allows. From there I shall then look at what bugs people are bringing up with the new build. Again, no eta on anything, I fit in the work as and when I can, so im afraid its a case of it'll be done when its done.
[HTC Desire S] nodeffect:
Any plans to implement the weather lock screen ? cuz I miss that feature. Thanks.

[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Hello all.

First I want to apologise to all the Desire XS users for my prolonged absence. I want you all to know that I didn't forget you all, unfortunately I became critically ill which led to me being back in hospital.

At the moment I am still picking myself back up, but I havent forgot my promise to you all that I would update this rom for you, and once I have things in order IRL, I will come back to this rom to do a final build. I do have something special in mind, however it may well be impossible to achieve for all I know so I wont say anything yet. AS I say I have to get things together IRL first, (you know, the little things, like find a job I can manage to cope with.) so it will be some time still yet.

For those who may still use Desire XS, Thank you for the support and patience you have shown through these difficult times.

Regards to you all

thantos
[HTC Desire S] fblasot:
Happy to read you, I wish you to go better and better !

Still using your ROM on wife's phone
[HTC Desire S] mackhenri:
Glad your back on XDA.

Wish you all the best and god bless you.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Check first post for details on the latest update:D Change log will be added to second post shortly and hofile link will be added once its finished uploading.

Changelog updated, and Hotfile link added
[HTC Desire S] mizerok:
Yea, 5 mins to download =) Waiting for changelog
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Guys, I have implemented a few basic tweaks in this rom so could you provide some feedback on performance so I get a good idea of how people feel they might have affected it for better or for worse.

Oh and the rom has been fully patched so that people can use the Supercharger V6 script at their own discretion.
[HTC Desire S] xicomatos:
Did you include all the sense 4 widgets that were not present in 1.6 ?
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Which widgets in particular?
[HTC Desire S] xicomatos:
The data panel, sound profile and other...
[HTC Desire S] userdesires:
Capacitive backlight problem still exists. Comes on when I bring it to a dark room and then stays on but won't switch on by itself where it should, have to cover the sensor with my hand. Sensitivity settings need to be played with somewhere.
[HTC Desire S] tnZ:
I would say no real difference in performence. A problem i hade with my menu button is fixed now. QuickSettings are realy nice. Missed it very much.

AnTuTu @ 1497MHz says:

Beta 1.6 = 5630

Beta 2.0 = 5772

Great work at all. Love this ROM. (:
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Will have a look and add them as a flashable zip later.

Might be connected to the issue of auto brightness levels that a couple of people have, will be looking into that over the next couple of days and will post a couple of test updates for people with the issue to try out and report back. (As I'm not having the issue will be difficult to know if there right till people try them.) Once sorted will then be included in the next update.
[HTC Desire S] finistere:
New version looks good. Nice to have quick settings. There seems to be a bug with these, though: "Network selection & settings" just results in a pop up "Can't find null".
[HTC Desire S] dan_alexandre:
Really smooth and snappy rom, good job :)

I'm going to throw some feedback but don't think this as criticism but as a personal opinion of mine ;)

Could use some equivalent to fallout tweaks eventually, always nice to customize a rom to your taste. (Status and rosie tweaks, disable htc smartsync.. whatever it makes sense to you :p )

Build.prop has a ton of duplicates.. not that it matters much tho :p

Really glad you're not including too many apps and are keeping it simple ^^

That's pretty much it, these are not requests/demands.. just stuff that made sense to me

Anything relevant i find in these next days i'll be sure to give you constructive feedback. :good:
[HTC Desire S] ewr:

Also flashable htc notes add on didn't work in my device. No app icon in drawer.(All files copied to the /app and /lib directories correctly with right permissions.) I tried to push files manualy, icon appeared. As i click the icon, application force closes.

OSMAND+ no longer working on beta 2.0

Hi, OSMAND+ is no longer working on beta 2.0. Clean install of both XS 2.0 and Osmand+, even removed all maps. App starts but then stalls. Worked perfectly on 1.6.

[HTC Desire S] michaeldepotter:
I've got the same problem but I didn't do a full wipe before the installation of 2.0 (only cache & dalvik).

I'll try a full wipe this evening and reinstall to test it.

The new recent apps look very blurry, but that's not a big problem to me.
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
Battery with % for Desire XS beta 2

Copy the file with a root explorer to /system/app, set permissions to 644 (-rw-r--r--) reboot to recovery, wipe dalvik and reboot.

Or via adb:

adb remount
adb push SystemUI.apk /system/app
adb shell chmod 644 /system/app/SystemUI.apk
adb reboot recovery

In recovery wipe dalvik and reboot

Enjoy! :)
[HTC Desire S] finistere:
Hm, the replacement has resize issues in the quick settings.
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
If this is a dealbreaker for you do not use it. I am not going to play with this more
[HTC Desire S] finistere:
Hey, keep cool.

I tried your patch, noticed the issues and restored the backup copy of SystemUI.apk. No problem whatsoever. :cool:

Problem with OSMAND+ which I reported earlier is solved. Local problem aka user error. ;)
[HTC Desire S] OJK:
I'm wondering how the performance of this ROM is as compared with JellyBean or Lollipop ROMs.

I'm currently on CM12.1 and especially the dialer app is really slow. I had HTC's ICS ROM installed once but switched to JB CM ROMs, as HTC's ICS was very laggy...
[HTC Desire S] Saf98:
This should be alot stable for daily driver because its ics but its upto you to try other roms and find what's good.
[HTC Desire S] OJK:
I use this ROM (v1.1) now since a week or so and it is way more stable and faster than any JellyBean/Kitkat/Lollipop ROM that I used before. Google Chrome / Maps / ... are sufficiently fast for daily use, the screen lits up immediately when someone is calling (not the case with the Lollipop ROM I tested) and so I can continue using my Desire S.

What an amazing job by all who contributed to this ROM.

Thank you!

Bootloop

Hi there, i was on cm7, than i found this rom and I decided to install it, after aroma installation, I rebooted it and now i'm in bootloop and i can't access to hboot, how should I do?
[HTC Desire S] jmcclue:
pull the battery out for a min then ul be able to boot into bootloader then recovery. full wipe then flash the rom then if ur s-on, flash the boot.img in fastboot before u reboot
[HTC Desire S] evilken9555:
Hi, thanks for your quick reply, is this the right method to get into hboot (volume-down+ p key)?
[HTC Desire S] OJK:
I have some strange behaviour on my phone using this v1.1 ROM. From time to time, the icon in the status bar says that the phone would have lost the signal. I've had this on one of HTCs Gingerbread ROMs, so I thought it might be the same bug. But, furtunately, the signal is not really lost, as the phone still can receive calls. However, when the incoming call is accepted, the phone still shows "no signal" in the status bar - so it's obviously an indication error.

Has anyone experienced this as well?

Update/edit: when the icon says that the phone has no signal, I cannot place a call or send an SMS. So the phone itself thinks it has no signal. Thankfully no problems with incoming calls as already described above.

--------------------------------------------

Another thing that is bothering me using this ROM is that the phone often looses the WIFI signal. What helps is to toggle WIFI off and on again (have-you-tried-turning-it-on-an-off-again ;)). This works, but I would rather have it not loosing the signal :angel: . Has anyone else experienced this?
[HTC Desire S] Lapyyyyyy:
WHERE IS A NEW VERSION?:laugh: You told us so many words...:eek::D
[HTC Desire S] optimus_blade:
Can anyone tell me the procedure to follow for installation. I have twrp installed and running cm kitkat. how to flash this one. Little uncertain as I always used CM after original gingerbread that came with the phone. Kitkat is damn slow on it. So reconfirming the procedure. Is it same as flashing cm roms? I don't see HBoot anyomore cause of twrp. So how to confirm my radio. Any help would be appreciated.
[HTC Desire S] Saf98:
Yes it's the same flashing procedure, twrp is a recovery so the hboot should be the same. If you hold vol down and power it should go to the bootloader which displays the hboot. Just follow the tutorial on how to change it to this one.
[HTC Desire S] Brilliant99:
Mate, where the **** is boot.img? I opened your ROM with WinRAR and it's not in there

[HTC Desire S] mizerok:
I'd like to say that animations is much smoother than in 1.6. With quick settings and apm this rom is the best!
[HTC Desire S] finistere:
Actually, it looks like "developer option -> Force GPU rendering" has to be disabled for OSMAND to work. Option was ticked by default.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Thanks amidabuddha, I have reuploaded to Dev-Host to save your dropbox and added to the first post.

Incase people were wondering, I haven't added a battery% mod by default simply because of choice, everyone is different and people like so many different versions of the battery mod, stock with percentage, circular, etc etc that by leaving it completely stock and unmodified it should be straight forward for people to just use the UOT Kitchen to get what ever battery mod they want. Any that are posted here I will gladly add to the first post along with the name of the person that posted it. (If you use someone else please state who created it so that I can give the correct credits please.)
[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
That option should NEVER be turned on. It WILL break a lot of apps. Google should not have made it available, at least without a popup warning about what it does...

Sent from my sofa
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Wel it certainly never used to be on by default, only thing I can think is its one of the options I added to the build.prop forcing it on. I will go through and find the culprit and make sure that line is removed when I do the minor update later.(Already have a suspiscion which it might be).

Oh, and speaking of build.prop, who spotted my *ahem*deliberate mistake in the system info ;)
[HTC Desire S] flykthewiz:
My personal preference would be to have the recent apps back to the old version. I don't think there is a performance problem but you can only see one item at a time and with the old version you can see a few so don't have to do as much swiping
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Yes I might well do it that the old version is what comes with the rom by default and then people can flash the full screen version if that is their preference. (really am going to have to take time out to learn how to create a proper aroma script so people can choose these things while installing the rom though. so much to learn, so little time. :silly:)
[HTC Desire S] mizerok:
Take Aroma from some rom and see how it works, then create your own. The concept is simple
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Yeah, I just hadn't even looked at it yet where I have been looking at other things, gonna sit down when I'm free properly later this afternoon and sort it out.
[HTC Desire S] mizerok:
So anyway take your and do it like it need to be, i'm web developer and know how it to do what you don't know how

I don't know if it only me , but I have little problem with camera focus. In vers 1.6 camera was great, but in vers 2.0 my camera is not focus. Even if try to focus manual by touching the display, I don't have the same quality of the photo like in 1.6 :confused:

[HTC Desire S] teadrinker:
I think those Sense 4.5 skins only work properly in Full Sense, probably the Roms you tried it in had the Full Sense 4 lock screen.
[HTC Desire S] UmairAhmad:
May be it is the case.... But they worked in fallout plus sabsa...
[HTC Desire S] mizerok:
they have full lockscreen but this rom has lite
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
I have to admit that I didn't even check the camera as I made no changes to anything connected to camera. Did you do a complete wipe beinstall, (including that ANDROID and .android_secure folders on your scared? Is anyone else having problems with the focus?

Skins I will look at to see if I can see whats causing it to be an issue with the lite version of the lockscreen
[HTC Desire S] calator40:
I always make a full wipe before install a ROM and all app are instaled from Market, not used any type of backup.
[HTC Desire S] nikhilpatil:
Sorry, this off topic but - what skin is that? its looking really awesome! :D A link may be along with the name ;)

Well have taken a number of photos now and auto focus had been working perfectly, you could try just refreshing without wiping anything and see what happens

By the way: Bluetooth works perfectly in my car (audio stream & phone calls) so you can edit that in the first post.

Good rom. But i miss flashlight toggle in QuickSettings panel.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
[

Its basically just the default quicksettings atm, may look at adding a couple like flashlight toggle later, but want to try and track down the bug with the task manager in quick settings not showing the correct values first.

After shuffling the apps about and getting halfway through purging the lib folder I have 70MB of space free on system, (1 lib file for chrome that htc included was 25MB!!! that damn well went fast I can tell you.) after adding in notes, twiitter, etc. So I think once I'm done you guys should have plenty of head room to play about with :D

As soon as I am finished cleaning things up I will start on the aroma scripting than release as a minor release update (probably just class it as beta 2.01 as it will just have been a case of tiding things up), but at least then I'll know that any issues aren't being caused by stray libs etc.
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
The battery % mod has fixed background stretch. It was fine for me but I cant stand when there is baby cry around :)

Solution: do not open 9.png files from winrar - it bugges them! I have found untouched files, copied them over and it is fine now.

The link is the same.

@thantos2024

Speaking about authorship - the battery % png images are taken from Sabsa but I think the original creator is lost for the record :) You can upload the corrected version to dev-host.

[HTC Desire S] craftman:
Camera feedback

First of all, thanks for fixing the camera. I'm on another (full Sense) ROM, but updated mine with your camera files via ADB. Had to replace Camera.apk too, otherwise face and smile detection was not available. (Anyway, is there any differences between full Sense and lite Sense Camera apks?) So I picked the one from your zip. It caused the image stabilizer gone (maybe the difference I was asking about?) and some glitches during image recording. When both face and smile detection was enabled, during automatic picture capturing color stripes appeared all over the screen, but they were not recorded on the pictures. One more thing: stopping the video recording causing the camera app to exit immediately to home screen (but no FCs). Camera cache (belongs to full Sense camera) has been cleared before new camera app (the one from your port) has been started.

Anybody else with the same "problems"? Any chance to fix them?

Thanks in advance for all your effort.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Hi craftman, There can be a number of differences between different camera.apk's depending upon the phone that it originated from and its capabilities, it can be a case of trial and error to find one that has everything that you want.

As for the rest of the issues I don't have an issue here with it all, but from what you say it sounds as though you maybe cleared the cache for the camera through the app manager in settings, I would suggest you try wiping cache and dalvik cache in your recovery first and see if that helps with the problem. Failing that there are to many other variables with whichever rom it is your using to say for sure what the issue is, have you seen if anyone else is experiencing the same issue, does it still happen with the original camera.apk? if it doesn't then perhaps it just doesn't like the particular camera.apk from this rom.
[HTC Desire S] userdesires:
Anyone have problems with viber?

Restored from titanium and the keyboard wouldn't input my phone number into the box when opened. Uninstalled, wiped cache and dalvik and reinstalled and same problem. Worked perfectly in last version?

Came from a full wipe from previous version.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Well dont use it myself, but someone had an app earlier that worked fine in the last version but not in this one and it turned out to be because force gpu rendering, in the developer settings, has been activated by default through something I altered in this rom, try turning that of and rebooting and see if it fixes the problem (that will be corrected to be off by default in the next update.)
[HTC Desire S] userdesires:
Worked a charm would you believe thanks.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
yeah completely my fault, hadn't even considered that anything I had done to tweak the rom could cause something like that so didn't check it, unfortunately the problem doesn't occur with any of the apps I use. However as I said I will ensure that it is rectified in the next update.

[HTC Desire S] bayusuputra:
This ROM is GREAT!!! went from AOKP back to fallout due to stability, but then found this ROM and haven't switched back to Fallout.. battery life in 1.6 was great, around 10hrs with moderate to heavy usage.. my niece played Temple Run for about half an hour and the battery only dropped 5%, with 3G on and screen on full brightness.. will test out 2.0.. Btw, is there any way to remove the recent app layout? I personally prefer the standard UI over Sense, and i believe it's lighter too..

Thanks a lot for the ROM!!!
[HTC Desire S] spavian:
The problem with the camera is still here . It appears when i open the camera application and just let it stay , not taking pictures . În 1 minute the image becomes corrupted .
[HTC Desire S] craftman:
Hi thantos2024,

I'm on Viper and tried the yip you posted in other Sense 4 topics, that's why I'm here. Playing with different camera APKs, yours seems to be the almost-ultimate-one, except the missing image stabilizer I already mentioned. You were right, I cleared the cache from the App Manager. Now I rebooted the phone to recovery anc cleared cache and Dalvik, which solved the immediate exit of the application after video recording. Things start again if I change the video recording resolution: moving to another resolution result in the same exit to home screen. After this, the video recording always ends up in an exit. Clearing caches again restores the proper working until changing the resolution again. Regarding the screen corruption, clearing the cache didn't help, it happens for a second, and disappears when smile capturing is enabled.

As there is no feedback in the Viper forum for your camera.zip, I have no idea if anyone else facing the same problem. Using the original APK is not possible as it lacks the enhanced functions (maybe they are disabled?).

Can you please check that changing video resolution in your ROM works perfectly and causes no exiting (its NOT an FC, just as you press the back button on your phone).

Thanks.
[HTC Desire S] mizerok:
No problems here, try full wipe
[HTC Desire S] spavian:
I will do a full wipe and reinstall the rom . I just bought a brand new samsung class 10 sd , let's see if the problem is gone.
[HTC Desire S] spavian:
Ok guys , after changing the sd card , full wipe ,reinstall ,etc... the camera is working well ,no problems so far ,but i don't change anything on the settings of the camera ,not even open it . My conclusion is that the problem appears when you change something in the settings , initialy i change the video rezolution to hd ,after that the problems begin .I beleive if y let the settings of the camera alone , it's not gonan be problems any more . Sorry for my bad english :) Edit : the problem is still there, the image corruption after 1 minute and the camera application closes herself . :mad:
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Okay guys I have played around with the camera and I'm adraid that no matter what I do I cannot replicate any of these issues, I can switch between all video resolutions no problem and even if I cam leave the camera app open doing nothing for ages with no corruption at all. Could I ask people who have the problems to just check that they don't have force gpu rendering enabled in /settings/developer options/ and if they do to disable it, reboot to recovery and wipe cache and dalvik cache and see it it resolves the issue. In the mean time I will have a look at the multimedia settings, perhaps some tweaks there will help.
