[HTC Desire S] eisenger:
Yeah most apps, but there are still some...like settings,personalize,google search,play store,wifi hotspot,flash player settings,navigation that are still needed and not to be disabled,but just to hide in the drawer.

But that is only my personal preference, this is already a great rom by itself. :cowboy:
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
hmm, can you try s2w enabler from the themes and apps section and see if that disables it

Edit, tried it for myself, it works perfectly, I'll have a look at whats going wrong in the install, (although that part of the installer is lifted straight from amidabuddha's install script so it should be fine.)
[HTC Desire S] Cole07:
s2w enabler solved the problem. Its strange coz in script it was already disabled. Thanks again thantos!
[HTC Desire S] zyotty:
All I can say is this Rom is as smooth as a baby's *ss! Good work thantos! Thank you!
[HTC Desire S] alexp999:
Excellent so far, but would it be possible to have the AdAway Hosts file an option in the aroma installer?

I had to put it back to default as some newsletter links were being blocked.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
sure, I will add that as an option in the next version.
[HTC Desire S] Jedioscuro:
I have an annoying bug with the twitter application: clicking on links brings to an error page as if it wasn't connection. Facebook and other links works ok.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Okay, I'll have a look and see if I can find the cause.

Also guys, there is another work around for shortcuts on the homescreen disappearing, after reboot, force stop HTC sense, and then click home, all the missing short cuts will reappear.
[HTC Desire S] ceptrus:
During installation I select only Facebook, now i don't have my contacts with facebook photos and facebook events on my calander. Why ?
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Try installing facebook with friendstream, I suspect that then they will appear.
[HTC Desire S] ceptrus:
Can I make a new install without wipe? or should wipe first?
[HTC Desire S] Put_Nick:
I have problem on flashing...I was downloaded version 1.1, and after flashing (and flashing boot.img - htcDEV unlocked), phone just restarts into recovery. I was tried bouth boot.img (b2b and pached) but same problem. There was no problem on previus version, includin and version 1.0.

---------- Post added at 08:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:12 PM ----------

Tantos, tantos...you making problems. Now I see on first post that there is "Corect version 1.1". Then, what I was downloaded yesterday? After download finish, I will report back.
[HTC Desire S] bubi90:
Contacts and calendar don't sync with facebook, but I think it's sense 4, isn't it?

In the keyboard "y" and "z" are exchanged

Great rom however!! Never laggy and very smooth!
[HTC Desire S] razi914:
My contacts are synced,, but calender is not ,, they were both synced on fallout , which is also sense 4 ,, im on V1 ,
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
You can install without wipe
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
With regards to facebook sync, I will need to look into it as I don't use facebook, how are people installing, is it just facebook only, or facebook and friendstream? The files being used are the original ones from the Rom, they haven't been altered at any time so they should work as intended, the only thing I did was to source some Twitter for HTC sense files so that Twitter could be added to friendstream as requested because the original desire x Rom lacked this ability
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Which language are you using, I know that some of the keyboards are qwertz and not qwerty, it's just how they are on the Desire X, haven't got around to switching it yet.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Yeah, sorry I did post in the thread that somehow I managed to upload one of my earlier test builds that was incomplete by mistake. (In fairness I had spent till stupid am sorting through scripts etc to get 1.1 ready as rapidly as possible, plus for the first time ever on a Rom, that I am aware of, you can reflash it without wiping , choose completly different options from the last time and it will automatically remove all the files relating to the items you don't want.)

I promise to quadruple check everything next time. :D
[HTC Desire S] bubi90:
I chose facebook and twitter (without friendstream) and updated facebook app. I've logged in from the app and sync only existing contacts.

I'm using Italian and I can tell you for sure One S keyboard is qwerty but I don't know Desire X
[HTC Desire S] sleepymonk:
Minor problem here

Im picking the option for freindstream facebook + twitter but im not getting the friendstream app or widget, Apart from that everything else seems to be work..

Do I need to be s-off to get these or don't these option appear?

Great rom though
[HTC Desire S] Put_Nick:
No problem man. Thanks for your hard work. This is my daily rom...from two monts ago. In v1 I'm noticed that phone worming little bit, and battery draining faster...but after a day or two of using. Maybe it's just need couple of days to setup everything.

Now, I was formated everything, even SD Card and starting clean instar with v1.1.

Instaling...

edit: Installed. Everything passed just fine.
[HTC Desire S] adrianis:
Anyone is also experiencing pixelated video in YouTube?
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Hmm you should be getting them, as a work around while I check it out you can pull the friendstream files from the zip (there in extra/friendstream/) and drop them into /system/app/ and set permissions.
[HTC Desire S] zyotty:
Im sorry but does anyone experience stutters in both lockscreen animation and recent apps?
[HTC Desire S] Henf:
thanks for the hint! i had some disappearing app, too. since i'm using a third party launcher and lockscreen, i simply force stopped rosie and renamed rosie.apk in system/app folder (just renamed, not uninstalled it, cause you never know, right?). now the phone doesn't recognize rosie anymore and there is no more problem with disappearing apps. (a while ago i read somewhere on the board that just freezing rosie doesn't work. just can't remember why. :p)

greetz,

henf

p.s.: my phone told me to congrate you, thantos, on this awesome rom! it said, it would be the best thing that happened to it, since it was alive, :good:
[HTC Desire S] 2easy4you:
i just want to ask where can i find the boot img of version 1.1 ? i want to flash it via fastboot . coz im not s-off im just htc dev unlocked :) because when i open the zip file there's no boot img or should i flash the zip via recovery and flash the boot img of patched kernel ?

im already using the v1.1 and patched kernel . thanks for this awesome rom sir thanatos :) waiting for your next update ^^
[HTC Desire S] alexp999:
In the zip, it is in extra/kernel then either b2b or patched depending on the one you want.
[HTC Desire S] Cole07:
Yeah same problem here. Image strength setting seems too high, videos are not smooth. not laggy, about image quality ;)
[HTC Desire S] sjrixon:
Loving this rom and loving the HTC sense stuff.. But is there anyway to disable the HTC 'ring pull' for unlock?

I want the pin code, but I don't want to have to pull the ring first :) Just give me the pin screen...
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Just looked and I see what you mean with regards the the quality, I look what is happening as I dont remember it being like this before.

Not at the moment I'm afraid, you can switch it to the asop lockscreen by removing the the HtcLockScreenLite.apk and odex from /system/app, but right now there is no way to completely disable the lockscreen. I will look into it and see if I can find a way.

With regards to the issue with Friendstream and its widget, I am afraid that is an installer error, they are getting installed to /system instead of /system/app you can just move the with a file explorer and reboot, they already have the right permissions set so you dont need to worry about that.

I think that me rushing to get 1.1 out so quickly wasn't the best idea as it seems that a few errors have crept in. I will redo it all, at take a look at some issues users have reported, such as Youtube and GoogleTTS, and upload it as 1.2.

With regards to shortcuts for apps on the sdcard going missing from the homescreens on reboot. I have been looking into this, and I think the reason that it doesn't occure on certain roms (such as viper,) is not because they actually fixed the under lying issue, (the sdcard gets mounted then remounted again) but by forcing rosie to also restart at boot up. (reboot viper rom and look howlong it takes rosie to actually finish loading compared to Desire XS, its at least double the length of time. Also if you watch closely you'll notice the widgets all pop up for a split secound then vanish again.) (I am only guessing here by the way, I could be completely wrong, but it certainly looks like that is what is happening.)

While this works perfectly well, and was an option I had already considered, I dont really like the idea as it stops you from using your phone completely till its done. I wanted to get your guys thoughts on the matter.
[HTC Desire S] sleepymonk:
I will try the friendstream move later as for the homesreen apps disappearing this doesn't bother me as i don't use a lot of apps or shortcuts but i will go with what the majority wants (me being new to this rom).. personally faster boot time is more important then a shortcut..

Thanks for the work you doing its keeping this old man happy and the wife off my back as i don't hassle her asbout a new phone:victory:
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Oh, guys, I'll also add in the tweak kernel, s2wenabler and Htcsmartsync disabler as options in aroma on 1.2 as well (Fredericosilva says in the op that devs are free to use and I have been given permission by detcup4evr to use his HTC SmartSync Toggle from the playstore.)
[HTC Desire S] Cole07:
Thanks for your reply. Tried several videos, image strength same all
[HTC Desire S] scan6:
Thantos, could you add es explorer in the next version ? Because I always flash roms in class(shhh!):p but I can't install TB without any explorer:)
[HTC Desire S] jugg1es:
Make an update zip in TiB containing es and tb, flash it after you've flashed the rom

[HTC Desire S] zihinsiz:
About missing shortcuts, I only suffer this issue by xda app shortcut on homescreen. Instead of disabling and enabling Rosie after reboot or creating a new shortcut after every reboot, I moved the xda app to phone memory and got rid of this annoying small problem.

I suggest users having this issue to move those apps to phone, if there is enough memory.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
or I could ask the developer of TB if I could include the free version in the rom as an option during install.
[HTC Desire S] jugg1es:
This is true, in the meantime though :D

“Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.”

― Oscar Wilde
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
also it appears that if the app installs to the sdcard by default, and it creats its own shortcut on the homescreen, this will always persist after reboot. I plan now to look at what the difference is between adding a shortcut yourself and one being automatically added, to see if I can make it persistant that way.
[HTC Desire S] oskar102:
Hello Thantos, beautiful Rome.

Can you please install battery% in the next version?

Thank you
[HTC Desire S] vampire36:
I thought battery mod option already present in aroma installer ?
[HTC Desire S] Henf:
it is in version 1.1 ;). you can choose between QS, battery percentage mod, Carrier Name or every possible combination. :good:

i installed QS and battery percentage and QS and it works.

Hi thantos,

You know the problem about sweep2wake and s2w enabler solved the problem. But just realized sweep2wake automatically enable after reboot. :(
[HTC Desire S] ceptrus:
There are some application to customize the quick settings menu ??
[HTC Desire S] bubi90:
R: [ROM][25 Feb 13]Desire XS version 1.1 [Sense 4.1 lite] [Android 4.0.4]

So what happened?
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
I will need to look into this further, as the script for installing sweep2wake is lifted from the original aroma installer so it should be flawless
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
No not at this time, I do plan on trying to produce an app that will allow this it, but, I am still very new to this so the is absolutely no eta as to when it may be ready
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
In that case it will be because when you pick just Facebook or Twitter without Friendstream, you don't get the twitter or Facebook for HTC apps, these are what allow you to connect Facebook to friendstream, and allow the extra things to sync that you normally don't get with just the Facebook app in asop. (least ways that is what I am assuming, I will need to do some testing though.)
[HTC Desire S] twist3rtm:
Does the auto-brightness works ok for you guys? In the day if I put my hand over the sensor it seems to work because I see a difference, but at night when it's very dark, the screen is very very bright and I have to manually set the screen brightness.
[HTC Desire S] peters.:
Works perfectly, changing the brightness is quite fast (good), not bright at all at night.
[HTC Desire S] twist3rtm:
For me doesn't seems to work fine. The brightness level in daytime is ok, but at night it's just very bright.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
I have modified the brightness levels previously to improve the response of it, I could try tweaking it a bit further for the next version if people like.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
btw, I have been working on the full sense rom, and now have a bootable version, it still needs more work at the moment but hopefully have an alpha of Desire SV up soon

[HTC Desire S] teadrinker:
AW: [ROM][25 Feb 13]Desire XS version 1.1 [Sense 4.1 lite] [Android 4.0.4]

Have you checked hboot 7.00.1002? It's basically the same.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
things like location not working, no cube animation in app drawer, that sort of thing.

I was originally going to make it a full one sv port, but considering the smoothness of this port I have decided to make it a mix of this and the one sv

on the plus side, wifi etc all work fine

Oh, and sdcard mounts as a removable storage device when mounted over usb as normal
[HTC Desire S] fblasot:
R: [ROM][25 Feb 13]Desire XS version 1.1 [Sense 4.1 lite] [Android 4.0.4]

I check all settings but nothing found to choose the keyboard layout, that for your case is the French one (QWERTZ).

When you install rom v1 did full wipe ?

Maybe the French layout is and old settings from a previous ROM.

For example on the google aosp keyboard you have the setting to choose that specific layout.
[HTC Desire S] jarmal:
I need to make some modifications to Message.apk. Is it possible to get deodexed rom like RC2 was?
[HTC Desire S] holvoetn:
Thantos,

regarding SV:

please don't stray away from your original principles and keep DS as it was intented: LIGHT and fast !

No problem there will be an SV version, just don't mix it too much with DS.

PS Bluetooth calling problem with car kit has been reduced but is still present from time to time.

Car Mode was not the solution to the problem.

I do have a nifty setup now with Tasker which auto-scans the BT connection to my car kit and then auto-magically enters Car mode.

Then screen off ! (otherwise it stays on).

When BT disconnect is detected, Car Mode gets killed.

I can easily go 1.5 days or more on 1 charge (2 times 100km commute which ALSO eats battery due to the constant switching over of cell towers, multiple calls during day, 3G always on, Wifi on when at home also thanks to Tasker)

I love it :)

The one thing I am not able to get functioning is underclocking using OC/UV Beater. It will not save the settings for UV. OC is no problem (but I am not interested in doing that because of battery life)
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
you can still modify odex files using backsmali and smali just fine, the .doex file contains the classes.dex file where all the smali are stored, so you would use backsmali and smali to decompile that, while all the res images are in the apk. so if say you want to simply replace one image with anouther then you just ipen the apk with something like winzip or zip, make sure the file you want to use is named correctly and drop it in. (exactly what I did withchanging the reboot icon, and that I did when the file was already odexed.)

PLus you can deodex the files with titanium backup if you just want to mod a single file.
[HTC Desire S] craftman:
I'm happier than ever with your Desire XS ROM but I would give a go in the future for a real full Sense 4.1 ROM rather than a mixed one (if that matters...). In the end, I would return to XS for its smoothness and speed. But you know, human curiosity is endless :)
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Guys, I just wanted to write up a nice and easy way to create logcat's to send to me to help with diagnosing issues.

The way is to first download a free app of the play store called Catlog. Once it has installed, add its widget to your home screen, this will allow you to automatically record and save the logcat to your sdcard.

Once the widget is on your homescreen, tap it once, and it will ask you what to call the file that it creates, I tend to leave it at default but call it what you want. once you press ok, it will then start recording the logcat to file. Now try to reproduce the issue that is affecting you. after the issue has occured, drop back to your homescreen. Once back at the homescreen, tap the Catlog widget once more to stop the recording.(it will also automatically open the saved log for you to view, but you can just exit out again.)

You will now be able to find the saved log under /catlog/saved_logs/(nameoffileyouchoose).txt, simply upload that to me and it should hopefully tell me what I need to know.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
when I say mixed, I mean I striped Desire XS of sense completely and rebuilt it with the sense from the One SV, so you should get the smoothness and responsiveness of Desire XS, but with the experience of the Sense from the One SV.:D
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
when the keyboard is open, you can switch between the languages via the button that has the language abbreviation on it, (so where for example, it says IT, press it once and it will switch to the next language.) I think if you hold it for a secound it will bring up an option to add/remove availible languages.

[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Open the keyboard in the messaging app or something and check the key secound from the left on the bottom row, if it says something other than IT, then keep tapping it till IT appears and you will have the right keyboard for Italian, which is a qwerty, not a qwertz keyboard.
[HTC Desire S] martusc:
XS Rocks

As a noob, especially on my Desire S I went through the whole process over the last 2 days. Getting bootloader unlocked was a nightmare. Up to point 7 fine, but not thereafter. Reading is a tough course, so having EVERYTHING that's needed in C:\Android as per the instructions are crucial. Rooting was a cynch and flashing the ROM great, until the very last point "for HTC_Dev Unlockers", that boot.img instruction is probably slightly incorrect on the ROM. Sorry, Thantos, I don't know how to go and check without re-installing. However, going back to your note in the first post, I just copied that boot.img into C:\Android and flashed and off she went.

Don't want to Rave too much after 1 day, but this is awesome. I haven't used everything yet, but so far all works, incl. BT with a headset on phone or thru Car app.

But, the real things are Smoothness and WHAT battery life! This phone has always been average on battery, horrible lately and now amazing. If it lasts, I'll come look for that Donate button.

Thank you very much.:good:

Where can I get something this smooth for my original Galaxy Tab P1000?:laugh:

It says IT
[HTC Desire S] toxic-hero:
could you add this to your ROMs. i belive this is necessery for device encryption to work on desire S:

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andr...mmit/e5dfd9a3a46afe40df8e7ad7f2d49c978bcb6687
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
do you mean encrypting the sdcard? if so that works fine (tested it a couple of time, it encrypted and decrypted fine.)
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
hmm, odd I was sure the IT keyboard came up as a qwerty and not a qwertz. I will look through and see what I can do.
[HTC Desire S] craftman:
Sounds better. But I don't get the point of this. If you stripped Sense completely from you got an AOSP-like vanilla Android, am I right? How does it differ from the same stripped One SV ROM? Why would it be smoother, than that one? I'm just trying to understand what is the added value of doing this, but you are the developer... :)
[HTC Desire S] toxic-hero:
no, encrypting the phone. it fails with any ds rom.
[HTC Desire S] AndroGio:
I have the IT keyboard and.. it's a qwerty one if it helps
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
basically the one sv is massivly different to the Desire S, where as the the desire x is as drastically different, I would basically have to completely rebuild everything to get the base of the one sv even booting, (graphics, webkit, media, etc etc etc.) thois kind of rebuild can introduce a lot of issues, whereas, starting with a clean base that we know works correctly and then building on that, means a lot less bugs, better compatibility, and an overall more enjoyable experience for the end user.

Also if both Desire XS and Desire SV share the same build under the hood it will make mainting the 2 roms easier, if they both have the exact same issue then it will be a good chance that it is the base itself that is the probl;em, whereas if one has an issue and the other doesn't it will be connected to the sense in that version that the problem lies.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
I see, okay I will see what I can do.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
what system language are you both running, maybe that is the difference
[HTC Desire S] AndroGio:
I do run Italian
[HTC Desire S] craftman:
OK, understood. When you speak about Desire SV, you mean Desire S based on One SV, don't you? Because Desire SV is existing by nature. ;) Hope the ported SV ROM will be as good as Desire XS is.
