I hope so! I let it go dead and now it won't start, charge or do anything other than stare at me with black glass. Super bummer. Been navigating Newark with paper printed directions as my buddies phone got fried too! Now I know what a good gag gift to get someone I really don't like is....

Going to AT&T tomorrow to see if there's any chance they can open the sucker and give me a new battery. Highly unlikely.
[HTC One X+] 911jason:
I wouldn't even talk about the battery, I'd just plop the brick on their counter and have them replace it. It's still under factory warranty and it's completely dead.
[HTC One X+] nugzo:
Stock recovery charges when off. Others don't. I would just call it a brick and get a new one. Sure would suck if they replaced the battery and saw the bootloder or a custom boot animation....
[HTC One X+] cstayton:
ATT doesn't do any repairs, and it is unlikely you damaged the battery it is however extremely likely that you fried the charging circuit on the phone in which case replacing the battery would do no good. my youngest daughter warranty replaced her phone 3 times in less than 6 months, so it shouldn't be an issue.

just tell them it wont charge they'll replace it im sure

Standalone app or built into rom?

Looking good and promising, do you think you would use different battery %?

Thanks:p
[HTC One X+] cstayton:
built in and controllable through our tweaks app, we are far from ready to release lots of work yet to do. battery percent mods something we can look at adding to the tweaks app as for now I have a couple in the rom.

Just wanted to thank you for this excellent Rom. The custom kernel is especially tasty! I also love the tasteful theme.

I was initially saddened because I prefer roms without sense, but, I was easily able to de-sense the rom manually using the Rom Cleaner in the HTC One X forum. I wasn't initially sure if it would work, but, it worked just fine w/o any issues. In addition I went through and remove some additional stuff manually, because a couple of things had slightly different names and it missed them, but, overall it made the process much easier.

So, if any of you want to use this rom, but, De-sense it, here is the link. I just did a clean wipe, then install rom, then in recovery run the rom cleaner b4 you reboot and start rom for the first time. You can also modify the .txt file it comes with to remove additional stuff like the language files and so on.

Most of you probably know about this already, but, I never check the One X forum, so I thought I'd mention it for anyone who missed it. Anyway, here is the link.

Nice, I know some members prefer to run without sense if this works without issue then go for it. saves me from writing a desense script :D:D:D
[HTC One X+] grafik2:
Well check this out --- I think you're exactly right I think it fried the charging circuit. They were willing to do a warranty replacement as long as there was no physical or liquid damage to the phone, which of course there isn't as I'm very careful handling them (minus rogue car chargers).

However when she had me pop open the sim slot to tell her the color of the sticker in there it was yellow?!? she said I'm sorry what color is it? white is good anything else is bad she said.

So i ended up telling her it was bad lighting and that the sticker was in fact white. But it's pretty yellow. Which boggles my mind because I've only had the thing for about three weeks never near a sink toilet shower or rain. Makes no sense. It is already a warranty replaced phone so I'm even wondering if they had sent me a refurbished phone with a weird sticker?? Everything I read says they turn pink or red when wet.

Now she made me attest that there is no damage and if when I receive my new device and I send it in if there is physical or liquid damage they hit me with a $499 charge and they keep the phone I will return. This is whack, I want to know if there are other water sensors and I want them to tell me BEFORE I am charged if the phone is in fact water damaged. Which is bogus since I've never gotten it wet.

Not very happy at this point. Wonder if I could repair the charging circuit myself
[HTC One X+] cstayton:
well that little tag or strip is usually a type of lithmus paper that changes colors according to the type of liquid or chemical applied to it so my guess is that either the battery managed to leak and lithium got on the paper or some other component fried and that colored the strip. I did not search to see what chemical reaction would turn it yellow but water damage is definitely pink or read

Anyone notice that the screen flickers/redraws quite often? It happens to me on the home screen and also on the lock screen. It flickers black for a second and then it's back, as if the screen times out and locks. It doesn't do this on other ROMs I toyed with. Custom kernel problem or something else?
[HTC One X+] Zarboz:
try stock boot.img and report if the problem persists please

I tried the stock boot.img from the Elegancia ROM (didn't know where else to grab a stock one from) and I haven't seen the problem over the past few hours, but I also re-flashed Blackout with a full wipe.

One problem with the stock boot.img: wifi doesn't turn on, it keeps cycling between "Turning on..." and "Error". Is this "normal" or something else going on with the combo I'm running?

Thanks! Wifi is now working again. I'll run like this for a day or so and report back on the screen flicker/redraw issue, but so far I haven't run into it for the past 6-7 hours with the stock boot.img

Another issue: looking in /system/app there's a FM_Radio.apk but it doesn't show up in the list of applications. Is it disabled on purpose and how can I run it? Other custom ROMs make this app (and other stock HTC apps) available.
[HTC One X+] gamepr:
Re: [ROM][Jan 14] Blackout 1X+ v3.0.1 U.S ATT s2w+Custom Kernel [4.1.1][Sense 4+][Mod

It happens on venom Rom too.

I think the initial blackout Rom was the most stable.
[HTC One X+] sirxdroid:
Wallpaper request: could you please make the default Blackout Logo wallpaper available without the green b? I like the pattern and the color but I'd like it simple without the "b" logo. I know there's a similar one already available, but it's not quite the same. Thanks!
[HTC One X+] cstayton:
The FM_Radio.apk has not been modified from stock, this is similar in function to the Friendstream.apk which is there in order for friendstream apps to integrate FM_Radio.apk is there to make the widgets integrated and work on the homescreen.
[HTC One X+] sirxdroid:
Thanks, but my question remains: how can I run the FM Radio app? It's possible to do so in other custom ROMs such as Elegancia. Why is the app not showing up in the list of all apps?

And back to the flicker/redraw problem: I haven't seen it yet with the stock boot.img. I also see better battery life with the stock boot.img, in particular when the phone is idle. Overnight the battery dropped 2%, it used to be much more than that with the custom kernel. Not sure whether it's the S2W feature or something else.

A request please: would it be possible to make future versions of this fine ROM available both with a custom kernel and the stock kernel? For me the stock kernel is good enough, I'm not making use of the S2W feature or voltage or governor settings. I tend to agree with a comment posted above that the 1.0 version of Blackout seemed to be more stable and more battery friendly.
[HTC One X+] cstayton:
I will include the option for stock boot.img and kernel modules in the upcoming release. i am currently looking into why the fm radio app does not display in the app drawer

Edit: Ihave resolved the following missing apps issue:

FM_Radio.apk

PolarisOffice.apk

FriendStream.apk
[HTC One X+] sirxdroid:
Thanks! Very much appreciated.
[HTC One X+] DornoDiosMio:
I've occasionally noticed the flicker issues, but, the only time I encountered it was when I was playing around with the sweep to wake feature. Sometimes in using it to turn the screen off and on that would end up happening. Either at the lockscreen or the homescreen.

I haven't really used S2W at all, but, was just messing around with it to see how it worked. After doing that I've yet to see any sort of flicker again.

Although it should be noted that I de-sensed the rom with a script and also removed pretty much everything I possibly could because I'm OCD like that. So it is possible my experience might differ from the standard setup with sense.

Anyway, loving this rom and I can't wait for the 'upcoming release'! Should be tasty!

Re: [ROM][Jan 14] Blackout 1X+ v3.0.1 U.S ATT s2w+Custom Kernel [4.1.1][Sense 4+][Mod

So its suppose to be white ? My lil strip under the sim card is yellow also there's no way that's the moisture thing I've never got my phone wet ever att is a bunch of crooks

I bet it comes yellow and turns red or pink if there is water cuz I havnt even dropped my phone once yet (knock on wood) let alone spill something on it or drop it in water
[HTC One X+] cstayton:
No, it's supposed to be white not yellow the discoloration is from some type of reaction. when i purchased the one X+ i watched the rep remove and insert the microsim and the strip was defintely white now its yellow. and if it was wet it would turn pink or red and that is what the techs look for to determine water damage so if it isnt pink or red then dont worry about it.

Could the the heat, the strip might get nice and toasty, "golden brown, baked to perfection".

Re: [ROM][Jan 14] Blackout 1X+ v3.0.1 U.S ATT s2w+Custom Kernel [4.1.1][Sense 4+][Mod

Well that's news to them because the floor model that I checked was yellow! So was my "New"phone that I just received from warranty, also yellow. However this story isn't over yet I just got off the phone with AT&T because of a pleasant little $499 that showed up on my bill as "warranty device not returned"

The rep was mum while she was trying to get a hold of her warranty department but I acted dumb and pryed enough to get her to tell me that it's in the system as liquid damaged.

She put some sort of case claim in for me and they call me when it's resolved. Quite convenient of course that it's now in their hands and no way for me to prove it wasn't ever wet
[HTC One X+] cstayton:
it makes sense that the floor model was yellow those get turned on and off and used as display models so its logical, as far as your "new" warranty replaced you do realize it is NOT "New" but Factory refurbished right? and even on the off chance it is "New" in box it will have gone through some form of power on test cycle, you can evidence this by the fact that it would have had at least a 25% charge in the battery.
[HTC One X+] grafik2:
Re: [ROM][Jan 14] Blackout 1X+ v3.0.1 U.S ATT s2w+Custom Kernel [4.1.1][Sense 4+][Mod

In the documentation they say if you purchase new your warranty return will be replaced with new, if you purchase refurbished you will be replaced with refurbished. Either way that's not a big deal to me I usually prefer to purchase refurbished anyway.

But if they try to tell me my phone was liquid damaged because the ldi is yellow I'm going to have a conniption and I think rightfully so haha! Still waiting to hear back from them.
[HTC One X+] DornoDiosMio:
Wow, pretty sad to hear AT&T marked your device as having 'liquid damage' in their system. All this is after they told you in person it was fine.

Kind of makes you wonder, since now you'll have to fight with them over the phone to fix it and since the phone is no longer in your possession you have no way to actually prove your claim.

Although, I imagine this was just a simple error on their part and will be rectified when they speak with whomever in fact processed your warranty claim.

However, if this is not resolved appropriately I will be very suspicious in any future dealings with AT&T. Thanks for the info and good luck to you!

i have tried out this rom and really liked it, but (not to be an a-hole) i just really like the whole tweaks-thing that viper has going on. since both are Viper (1.2.0) and Blackout are 4.1 Sense roms, would it be possible to flash the beastmode kernel over that of Viper 1.2.0 so i can have s2w/the other things this kernel supports? forgive me if it's totally out of the question, but i never really understood kernels :/

probably not since our rom is based on the ATT RUU and viper is based on the Telus RUU (two different bases). we are in the process of finishing up our tweaks app and hope to have to rolled into our next update.

What is insecure boot?
[HTC One X+] diceman725:
awesome!
[HTC One X+] cstayton:
basically it is changing a setting in the ramdisk inside the boot image

ro.secure=1 to ro.secure=0 and also setting some adb configurations. aswell as setting up init.d support.
[HTC One X+] 911jason:
Okay, so what is the benefit? Sorry, guess I should have been more clear.
[HTC One X+] cstayton:
it enhances the root capabilities, there are features of this rom that specifically require it one of which is init.d support. it also allows for you to do an adb remount (remounts system as rw) allows for you to install apps through the adb install cmdline from your pc.

you get this by default with most device that have been around for awhile because those devices have s-off access which allows the boot.img to be flashed when the rom is flashed. our device does not have that and therefore the boot.img must be flashed separately.

overall it provies for much more tweaking and capabilities that revolve around root access.
[HTC One X+] 911jason:
That's great! I just ran into the adb remount problem last week on the stock ROM.
