Hello.

I get 'limited service' on my Desire S using Desire XS, everything else is working fine. The phone is definitely unlocked because occasionally I get a signal and receive a text message etc but seems to be very weak and then disappears altogether.

I am in a good signal area so don't think that is the problem, could it be an incompatibility with radio? (I have not done anything apart from unlock bootloader via HTC Dev and flash Desire XS ROM)

Bootloader is unlocked, I am S-ON, have flashed boot.img and ROM boots up fine.

RADIO: 3822.10.09.04_M

HBOOT: 2.00.0002

SAGA PVT SHIP S-ON RL

Thanks for oyur help.
[HTC Desire S] niravnn:
You need latest radio I guess. But for that you have to s-off your device.

Or just clean install it one more time might solve your problem

OC Kernel

[MENTION=2479331]thantos2024[/MENTION]

Will i have to sacrifice battery life if i use the OC kernel??
[HTC Desire S] madboxgr:
I guess you will sacrifice battery life if you OC your phone. It will use more power and that equalls more battery
[HTC Desire S] razi914:
Oc doent cause very big battery drain, oc to 1.2 , ur battery will be fine,
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
All camera and camcorder functions work 100% with no issues at all as far as I'm aware.

Haven't posted any screenshots yet guys, as, so long as no issues crop up I will be releasing an update this evening with things such as APM and quicksettings. :D
[HTC Desire S] sunand777:
any way to add app drawer slide to 3d like in sense 4 full?
[HTC Desire S] ewr:
Is it possible to add HTC notes app to new release? I tried to add htcnotes.apk , htcnotespainterView.apk and Htcnotesprovider.apk to /system/app directly with setting permissions, but when i tried to launch notes app from app drawer menu, it just force closes.
[HTC Desire S] defa91:
Can you add horizontal quicksettings like viper instead vertical from operator logo, please? Thanks!
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
We already have a number of Roms in the forum that have a lot of the features from sense 4 full active (fallout, Sabsa etc) as well as a couple of full sense 4 roms, and this Rom is meant to offer an alternative that goes for performance at the expense of eye candy. (The only reason that Rosie is 3d is because it was already active when I ported the Rom tbh.)

In that vain I have no intentions to add anything like 3d app draws, full weather etc to this particular Rom, (although I'm considering trying a full sense port when this is stable.)

I do appreciate that some users would prefer to sacrifice some performance for eye candy in which instance I would recommend they try lowveld Fallout Rom (particularly now I've sorted the right files from this to fix the camera, check in the thread for them,) or a similar Rom such as Sabsa.
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Will be adding notes and Twitter as a seperate flashable zip for those who want it with the next release.

Quicksettings are the native tabbed quicksettings to keep in with the stock look of the rom.
[HTC Desire S] michaeldepotter:
This is the best sense Rom I've tested so far. It's my new daily Rom. Great work!

I only have the problem that my launch-buttons (home, menu, back, search) never light up.

Can I include the HTC Notes widget myself. Thats the only thing i'm missing.
[HTC Desire S] vampire36:
Bro just felt should tell you this...

The thought process you have now just try to maintain always...Have seen people change their take on roms and thus losing the identity of the rom as it becomes more and more well known as they try to make their rom satisfy all demands...respecting users demands should always be your priority...as that always is devs priority...but whether to actually implement or not always dev's take...so just respect all demands yet be firm and clear about how you want your rom to be...Best Tip : You can be unsure about what to remove from your base but always be clear, firm and thoughtful about smallest stuff you add to your rom...keep this rom lite minimal yet self contained and perfectly daily driver...somehow with your next release which includes apm, quicksetting feel should be good enough for base if no bugs to iron out...at the same time providing tweaks and some fancy items as zip without affecting the original base should be good enough for most users...if ever a need is felt for such demands to be satisfied by you...just keep original base as clean and minimal as possible but self contained and reliable and bugless...

Kudos for your rom...though an aosp freak...will try your new release for sure :)

Great Job:good:
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Yeah, should be able to push the three apks, to system app and set permissions then reboot, (the versions in fallout work with this version) however I will be uploading a zip file in a bit with all the right files included.

As for your captive backlights I really don't know on that one, I've never had a problem, and I dont recall of the top of my head any other users having a problem. (although being honest I would need to go back through the thread and double check to absolutely 100%).

In a few hours I will post an update, so might be worth seeing if that will resolve the issue.
[HTC Desire S] zihinsiz:
I have capacitive button light issue too. Reported before in this thread. But it is normal for you not to remember :)
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Yeah, sorry had actually been going through the thread and was going to correct myself. Was that issue resolved with the lockscreen icons when you reflashed the Rom or is it still an issue?

Also, I haven't forgot that a couple of users felt that the auto brightness levels didn't dim the screen enough in low light, I haven't looked at this yet in the new update but will look into adjusting the values in the framework some point soon.
[HTC Desire S] zihinsiz:
I don't have missing lock screen icons after I unticked and ticked the setting and after flashed 1.6 version.

Sent from my head
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Sorry my post was badly worded, I meant was the issue with the backlights on the captive buttons also resolved when you reflashed the rom?
[HTC Desire S] zihinsiz:
Unfortunately no, the issue continues for me with the last release, 1.6. I think this is something that a minority of users have.

If you take the picture it's saved just like that greyed .I must close and open the camera aplication and it's working for the next 4-5 shots , after that begin again corruption
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
Did you do a full wipe before you flashed (including data). As of yet I dont know anyone whos had problems with the camera, not even in any of the other threads that I posted a flashable zip with all the libs etc in, (which is most the sense 4 threads)
[HTC Desire S] spavian:
i did a full wipe data , cache , dalvick .
[HTC Desire S] thantos2024:
I am uploading the new version right now, should be up in about half an hour, hopefully that will resolve any issues.

Hi, flash this in recovery https://www.dropbox.com/s/d2vm2rs07a9w41v/reTheming for Sense4.zip?v=0mcn

When you have the option to choose battery style, choose stock, when you reboot you will have a blue AOSP battery with percentage if that's any good.
[HTC Desire S] Librastar:
but i wanted to flash ******************** VERSION F (1.0) ******************** from this link :(
[HTC Desire S] dionisis1976:
Ok, I've been fiddling, if you flash this in recovery https://www.dropbox.com/s/79rfrz7cd20vp5i/reTheming batteries.zip?v=0mcn

And in the battery section you will now have

Percentage - which should be Version F from your link

Sense 5 - Which is J (android man face battery thing) I thought was different so liked it

Stock - Which is AOSP blue style

Bare in mind that I am not running this rom, I have tested it on SVHD and NOMNOM
[HTC Desire S] dionisis1976:
Also have done a few more https://www.dropbox.com/s/i6f69e17fza74vk/reTheming batteries1.zip?v=0mcn

Percentage - which is pic 1

Sense 5 - Which is blue battery with percentage pic 2

Stock - Which is pic 3

If you have any requests just pm me. :)

Great rom by the way, very smooth, many thanks.

What's the most battery life you can get with light/moderate usage? Is it any better than Flinny's CM 10.1? Cheers
[HTC Desire S] craftman:
3+ days (3d 8h exactly with 1 hour screen-on and 1h 45m talk) can be easily achieved, but in this case no Wi-Fi or 3G connection was enabled. I think it is extremely good for an ICS w/ Sense ROM.
[HTC Desire S] gt500kr:
sounds great, any idea of whats the max on screen time?
[HTC Desire S] craftman:
Have no idea. Once I played 3 hours on the phone which drained totally the battery, but I'm pretty sure you can use your phone more than 3 hours with browsing etc. and not with heavy gaming. Maybe others can estimate it better based on their experience.
[HTC Desire S] Librastar:
I have this file with me,I don't remember from were i Got it, but there is no circle battery mod in it...
[HTC Desire S] dionisis1976:
Look, all you do is flash the zip file in recovery, keep pressing next until you get to choose battery mod, then choose GREEN PERCENTAGE, this will flash the circle battery which you after. I know it says green percentage but I swapped these with the green circle ones for you.

Yap I got it..thanks alot....U rocX :good: and i noticed that when i tried to charge my device the battery image start interepting with the previous one.how to fix that

Ahh there a fine question, as there were only 20 recharge animations on the one you liked it has inserted the old ones as well, I will redo it and make another 80 recharge animations and give you a new link.

Ok here you go https://www.dropbox.com/s/9897j3cj6lvc4to/sensetweet percent circle.zip?v=0mcn

its not perfect but its better. Choose Green Percentage battery when flashing, if you would like Tweety pie (with flapping animations while charging choose Sense Battery.

Every time I reboot my device a massage is displayed every time "Android is upgrading(starting application)", any idea why it is displayed on every start up,because as far i know it is displayed only once after installation.

It happens when you wipe cache or dalvik.... Or add or remove some apps from system using root explorer
[HTC Desire S] Librastar:
so then it should appear only once then, why it is displayed everytime??

May be you have applied v6 supercharger or some type of script....

Awesome, now it doesn't stuck on live feed, thanks. :)

Yup, definitely its the ROM issue,because these ROMs are based upon high end output devices like HTC ONE and HTC SV etc,as compared to sense 3.6 ROMs there audio output is better than all sense 4 ROMs.

In the next version could you include the power saving settings?
[HTC Desire S] bubi90:
Can I ask you wich files exactly? I can't find anything linked to friendstream on /system

Thanks
[HTC Desire S] fblasot:
Maybe you can't find anything becouse during rom setup you didn't set friendstream and facebook to install ?

Anyway the files included in rom's zip are those in extra/Friendstream/app and must be copied in /system/app (or moved from /system to /system/app if they are present !).

Remeber to set 644 permission (rw- r-- r--)
[HTC Desire S] fblasot:
For who needs Text-To-Speech in XS v. 1.1 I found the solution:

- extract from zip rom the file System_lib\libspeexwrapper.so and copy to \system\lib and set 644 permission (rw- r-- r--); no need to reboot...

Hi all, I am back home from yet more hospital time, afraid that there is going to be a lot of back and forth with the hospital holding up progress but I am still working on the update as and when I can, and it will be ready one day. With regards to the power saving settings it is something that i have been looking into and have done some work on, but there is a lot of coding that still needs to be redone and then tested so I'm afraid its not looking like it will be sorted for the next update.

With a little luck I hope to have the update out to you all in a couple of weeks.

Hi,

Having a issue after installing, the setup screens are all landscape mode, once installed the home screens are fine but when I open any application that also goes into landscape mode.

I have managed to fix this by flashing the tweaked kernel, but this give me an issue and wont charge even though the charge light is on.

Performed full wipes etc. latest radio.

I have used this rom before with no problems, but now have trhe above issues, which also happens on other sense 4.1 roms. I thought the phone was knackered but as the landscape issue corrected itself after flashing another kernel not sure what to do.

Any ideas?

Thanks
[HTC Desire S] fblasot:
Maybe broken sensor ? It seems that the phone thinks to be always in landscape.

The home screen is correctly because in sense 4 light can be only portrait.

Try from market some hw test app...but I cannot suggest one.
[HTC Desire S] dionisis1976:
Many thanks for your reply, just installed CyanogenMod 10.1 - SAGA and sensor works fine, also just installed ICE DS v8 and that also works fine. Perhaps its my downloaded zip files, I shall re-download them and try, will let you know if I fail :)

Right Ice DS is now playing up. I know the problem and the cause. The phone thinks it is in dock mode due to pins 4 and 5 touching inside the charging port. Hmm must try to fix it or stick to Cyanogen. Anyone know what apk controls the car dock mode so I can delete it? (sorry for going off topic, I will now hush).

Many thanks.

[HTC Desire S] zilexa:
Would anyone say this is the most stable and latest (sense4.1) SENSE rom?

I am noob, did do custom rom with sony ericssons few yrs back. Now need to do it for Desire S. Phone is already revolutionary S OFF. I know I have to update HBOOT and Radio and I think I will manage that (its the same file). But do I also need to update kernel? If so, which kernel is recommended for this rom?
[HTC Desire S] maciclazar:
For me it is fastest and most stable sense 4.1 rom.

If you are S-OFF just choose stock or patched(overclockable) karnel during installation of rom. No need to flash anything after that.

So, first update hboot and radio and after that flash rom. Good luck.
[HTC Desire S] zilexa:
Ok! The device is already rooted and S-OFF. I will do it like this:

- First this new HBoot (29-05-2012 | 7.00.1002 | Reengineered 2.00.002)

- Then this new radio 3831.19.00.110

Then I will install this ROM and choose patched kernel. Does that sound correct?

Thanks!
[HTC Desire S] jmcclue:
looks good, thats what i did,

s-off revolutionary

flashed the same hboot

flashed ics radio (i flashed just radio.img via fastboot commands tho)

also u wana flash 4ext recovery aswell, its the best.
[HTC Desire S] zilexa:
Thanks! Installation went smooth.

The rom is fast and stable so many thanks to the creator, another very happy HTC Desire S user thanks to you. Finally on android 4!

That said, I did expect a few things that are not present in this version of Sense:

1. The spiral effect of homescreens when screen unlocks

2. The effect of all homescreens showing

3. The analog HTC clock, that also had a cool effect after unlocking the screen. The clock 'dialled' to the current time. Really miss this one.

4. The red default background, this is present but it's a low quality version, you see circles in the different teints of red

5. The font, very personal but I would like to suggest the same font used for the HTC One, it is a free Google font, not yet used by Google as default.

Also, is there an option to restore the 2nd button? Normally this would be context menu for single press, recent apps when long pressed. Now it's the other way around! I really hope there is a way to switch this back.

Perhaps this is all different because HTC changed sense this way, so it doesn't have anything to do with this Rom specifically and I am used to older sense, but everything I mention are the cool things of Sense right? But if anyone knows how to get any of these features back, while keeping all the good stuff this Rom brings, please let me know :)
[HTC Desire S] jmcclue:
To change recent apps go to -

Settings

Display, gestures & buttons

Recent apps

And choose middle option
