So is there a place to download older versions of the rom? I didn't save all of them and do not have 1.1.3, So that I could pull it for myself.
[HTC Droid DNA] Mcsquizzy:
Has anyone noticed issues with Chrome to Phone or Chrome to Mobile while using 1.3.1? Is there something I did that broke it, perhaps? When I click "Send to Phone" in Chrome, it says "Sent!" but it never shows up on my phone. I have auto-sync enabled, logged into Chrome on my phone, with Chrome to Mobile enabled. Any ideas?

Yeah I notice this too. I am using AOSP lockscreen and it sometimes lags a little bit, or just doesn;t open at all and the camera shortcut stay highlighted until I slide it to "unlock" where the camera then opens. Really bizarre. Sometimes, because there is no feature/teak to delete or move shortcuts on the lockscreen, it will glitch into selecting the camera shortcut even though I slide it towards the "unlock" shortcut on the right. Hopefully the lockscreen bugs will be worked out soon :)

Also, I was wondering if there is a way to remove the "Google Search" bar from the top of my homescreen? I love Google Now, but it takes up space :/
[HTC Droid DNA] sdamark:
Don't know about the "Chrome to phone" issue as I don't use it. The lag/glitch you mention seems to be an AOSP lockscreen problem, never had any problem using Sense lockscreen. You might want to try that. As far as the "Google search" bar goes, it's just a widget so long press and drag to top right to remove.
[HTC Droid DNA] burntbean1:
I can't even get the camera lock screen shortcut to work at all.. .

---------- Post added at 05:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:31 AM ----------

Got it to work, i guess its just really picky on where you drop the icon. I have the ring off to the right
[HTC Droid DNA] spjoneser:
I usually have to log out and back in to chrome to phone on the phone every time I flash a new rom and always have. It's just become one of my setup chores:)
[HTC Droid DNA] CharliesTheMan:
The Google search bar is a widget, you should be able to remove it by dragging it to the top. Maybe press menu and make sure your homescreen or widgets arent locked.
[HTC Droid DNA] firespitta:
Can you download more small apps?
[HTC Droid DNA] nitsuj17:
yes, no guarantee they work correctly though

but dont update the ones already there
[HTC Droid DNA] firespitta:
Oops lol what happens when you update them
[HTC Droid DNA] nitsuj17:
they may not function properly
[HTC Droid DNA] ML417:
the camera one doesn't want to move
[HTC Droid DNA] firespitta:
Hey nits, do u guys have time to add that halo feature that is in paranoid android? They just went open source and I think its pretty awesome even though I haven't used
[HTC Droid DNA] spongers:
Hey Nits or Vin, I FINALLY was able to start using the ROM again since the new S-OFF method came out! Was just about to J-Tag the damn thing when I read the article this weekend. Anyway, love being back on your ROM, but had a question. I did a search and didn't find anything on it since March so I thought I would ask again, at the risk of being killed! Any idea if/when wallpaper scrolling will be added?

Thanks again gents, glad to finally be back on a quality ROM on quality hardware!!
[HTC Droid DNA] nitsuj17:
we could not get it working to date and it was pretty frustrating

the same methods worked fine on vin's evo lte but not here and since there was no other xxdpi sense4+ device for comparison it didnt get fixed by other venom guys sadly
[HTC Droid DNA] spongers:
Cool, thanks for the response Nits!! :good:
[HTC Droid DNA] badfishie:
Anyone else have issues with landscape lock screen? Mine wont work in landscape
[HTC Droid DNA] Vinchenzop:
It seems to not work.
[HTC Droid DNA] Mcsquizzy:
So just a few minutes ago, I exported my current Venom Tweaks profile, then I selected Load Tweaks Defaults withn the Profiles tab. It prompted for a quick restart, I said yes. When it booted back up, I got a pop up saying "System UI has stopped" and now there is no status bar :( I tried a full reboot, and I tried importing my saved profile and and rebooting, no luck. I went to Apps > System UI > Force Stop/Disable+Re-enable and still no luck. Any ideas?

EDIT: I guess a TWRP restore worked :) Still weird though. Did I do something wrong to cause it to freak out?
[HTC Droid DNA] c5satellite2:
Same exact thing happened on my DNA a few days ago.
[HTC Droid DNA] minjiet:
how can i change the recent apps to aosp style?
[HTC Droid DNA] JWhetstone02:
Venom Tweaks > Status Bar > Dialog Style

its the very last option
[HTC Droid DNA] badfishie:
Ok thank you :)
[HTC Droid DNA] firespitta:
I want halo!
[HTC Droid DNA] nitsuj17:
I'd like it too, but its not that simple

The mod exists in java source, which is great for people who put out aosp roms...its a simple cherry pick that anyone with half a brain can do

However with oem roms, we have no platform source....we essentially hack up a system pull or RUU dump to support new features

So the mod has to be ported to smali and made to work with HTC stuff rather than stock android

Not impossible by any means, but time consuming nonetheless

If none of the other venom guys do it, ill take a stab at it on sense5...just don't want to dedicate the time to it for sense4
[HTC Droid DNA] Mcsquizzy:
Does anyone know what could be causing this?
[HTC Droid DNA] UltraMagnus0001:
I noticed by searching this thread a lot of people were having brightness problems, like not being able to turn rightness all the way up. I have version 1.3.1 and don't know if these problem are supposed to be fixed or I have a setting wrong. Power Saver is disabled and I use tasker to turn auto brightness off when I'm in carmode, by detecting when bluetooth is on. In the venom tweaks under Misc>AutoBacklight Brightness I can't turn up brightness higher than 235 with manual mode. I was wondering if I there's a way to get the brightness all the way up to 255. The stock brightness is brighter and I use my phone in car a lot. Will an edit to the framework-res.apk allow the brightness to go past 235?
[HTC Droid DNA] nitsuj17:
fixed lockscreen orientation tweak and disable volume keys on lockscreen tweak

will probably push a small ota tomorrow
[HTC Droid DNA] eriknors:
So much for that break huh nits...none the less I hope I speak for everyone when I say thank u for what u do for this community.

sent from my DNA
[HTC Droid DNA] badfishie:
Swet!! Thanks! You guys rock! This is one reason I love Venom Roms!!!
[HTC Droid DNA] Mcsquizzy:
Is there a chance (I hate being the one to bug about it) that those weird AOSP lockscreen glitches will get fixed too, or is that a much larger problem? Like the camera shortcut and the inability to rearrange lockscreen shortcuts?
[HTC Droid DNA] xlxcrossing:
Can someone help me get rid of the NFC and GPS reticle. Should I just decompile the custom statusbar?
[HTC Droid DNA] HOOKEDONDROID:
Venom tweaks, status bar, hide notification icons...BOOM! No more NFC & GPS :D
[HTC Droid DNA] Zer0r:
Well, it's not that simple. There are two GPS icons in statusbar. One - is for CDMA's GPS (circle with crossed lines), and the second - for real GPS (sat dish with green arcs). And all you can remove from statusbar - is the second icon, which is quite usefull and appears only when some app uses GPS. It shows connection status as well. The other icon - stays there all the time and absolutely useless. I don't even know what is the reason HTC decided to place it there. It stays in statusbar forever and shows nothing. And that ridiculous icon can not be removed with Venom's tweaks. While there is a known way to get rid of it.
[HTC Droid DNA] xlxcrossing:
Yes this is true...what a plague these nonsensical icons are
[HTC Droid DNA] nitsuj17:
nfc is not one of the hide icon options we have
[HTC Droid DNA] Vinchenzop:
I'm able to completely hide mine... Are you on the latest version of the rom? Do you have a theme for the gps icon? If so, try setting the gps icon to stock/internal theme and see if it hides.

EDIT: I tested for the GSM users, and it seems that the code was updated for the main (cdma) systemui.apk, but not the GSM variance of SystemUI.apk. I've already fixed it for the pending update that nits and myself are putting together.
[HTC Droid DNA] Zer0r:
Yes, exactly! It is about GSM! And yes, it was on pure clean ROM without any themes or even apks.
[HTC Droid DNA] nitsuj17:
1.3.2 has gone out via ota

Fixed in 1.3.2

fixed lockscreen orientation tweak not working

fixed disable volume keys on lockscreen tweak

fixed gsm systemui tweak for hiding gps icon

that is it, nothing else is changed/fixed/added...patch/ota only not full rom, and must be on 1.3.1 to receive it

to trigger ota: settings > about > software updates > check now

vin will put up the flashable ota update for those who cannot receive it for whatever reason
[HTC Droid DNA] snowman122:
I updated and it gave me an aosp lockscreen how can I get my HTC lockscreen back?
[HTC Droid DNA] Vinchenzop:
VenomTweaks - Lockscreen - uncheck AOSP lockscreen.

The Flashable OTA.zip that nits mentioned above, is available in the 2nd post.
[HTC Droid DNA] snowman122:
Yeah the thing is it is not checked the aosp in lockscreen is not checked and I still have the lockscreen
[HTC Droid DNA] snowman122:
See this is how it is
[HTC Droid DNA] treadwayj:
i have the same issue, i even went and checked it, rebooted, unchecked it and rebooted again and still have it
[HTC Droid DNA] badogg:
Me three. No matter how I try to check/uncheck/reboot or anything the AOSP lockscreen is still there.

I'M BEING OPPRESSED!! Lol

:silly:
[HTC Droid DNA] greekmanx:
I have same issue stuck on asop lock screen and I have to use notification shade and click settings then back to go to main menu because everytime I touch the lock screen button it reboots phone.
[HTC Droid DNA] xlxcrossing:
Sounds like the update fixed the persistent reticle...but yeah I meant the crosshair GPS not the active. When I check the customization screen for my statusbar mod it only lists the active GPS icon. Thanks for the update
[HTC Droid DNA] rayford85:
The ota has removed htclockscreen.apk for some reason. Just push the old one from the full Rom zip to your phone till the team fixes it.
[HTC Droid DNA] Mnorton1228:
Probably gonna flash this in the next few days. Really want Halo but I just really love Sense 4+. Dunno why but I've had enough of the stock android experience for the time being. Gonna keep using my DNA the way HTC intended it (Well.... mostly the way :P haha )
[HTC Droid DNA] badogg:
I put it is system/app and it isn't working. Is there somewhere else I need to put it?
[HTC Droid DNA] finanandroid:
Just Reboot

Just put in the System/ App, leave it there, don't install it, just Reboot, Android will upgrade it. it worked for me.:good:
[HTC Droid DNA] badfishie:
Downloaded and flashed the 1.3.2 update. Runs great!
[HTC Droid DNA] kelvinnotcalvin:
Maybe try fixing permissions
[HTC Droid DNA] UltraMagnus0001:
I just reflashed the entire 1.3.1 back over and will wait till its fixed. I just want the brightness to be able to go past 235 to 255 when i use manual settings in autobrightness. I can't be too picky though, cuz this is the best rom for my DNA.
[HTC Droid DNA] barski:
Confirming that fixing permissions fixes the issue. Thanks man!
[HTC Droid DNA] firespitta:
Which recovery would apply the update correctly? I'm using twrp and when It applies the update it goes to the recovery and does nothing.... When I try and check install it shows my sd card is erased and nothing is there but useless folders... I then rebooted and my sd card was normal
[HTC Droid DNA] finanandroid:
Install from folder 0 (zero)

Move the updated file 1.3.2 to the folder 0. then flash from Recovery.
[HTC Droid DNA] firespitta:
The recovery won't show anything on my internal storage... It just shows the .android data and other .blahblah folders
[HTC Droid DNA] darkace:
If I do a new flash of 1.3.1, can I flash 1.3.2 in the same flash or do I have to boot my phone up first?
[HTC Droid DNA] Droidem:
You have to boot up first in between installs.

Sent from my HTC6435LVW ViperDNA
[HTC Droid DNA] finanandroid:
Root/Storage

you mentioned " I then rebooted and my sd card was normal " so first you have to move with Root explorer or via USB cable from the Download folder the OTA file to the 0 zero folder (is another partition) in order to recovery find the update file. I suspect that you got the file 1.3.1 to 1.3.2 OTA in your Storage Card but not in your zero folder 0" look for it.
[HTC Droid DNA] finanandroid:
Sample

attached
[HTC Droid DNA] firespitta:
Oh ok it worked thanks <3 u.... So I do this with every ota?
[HTC Droid DNA] nrage23:
I flashed the 1.3.2 update and I cannot get rid of the soap lockscreen. I have not used it before and now it will not go away.
[HTC Droid DNA] nitsuj17:
sorry for the issues with the htc lockscreen not installing in yesterdays update :(

ota's have been loaded for those who did not update yesterday (still on 1.3.1)

and those who did (1.3.2)

so in either case you should be able to pull 1.3.3

the only change from 1.3.2 to 1.3.3 is the lockscreen not installing issue is fixed (essentially what i had intended 1.3.2 to be)

for those who cannot or don't want to update via ota here are the flashable zips

for those on 1.3.1:

[HTC Droid DNA] yearn2burn:
The htclockscreen.apk file disappeared with this update. Download the full ROM but don't install. Use Root Explorer or equivalent to copy the apk from system/app in the downloaded package. Paste it in the same location of the running ROM. Reboot and all well.
[HTC Droid DNA] nitsuj17:
if you look one post back, new update fixes that as well
[HTC Droid DNA] Irieone:
I am trying to OTA from 1.3.1 to 1.3.3 using Clockwork. I am getting a signature verification failed error. Should I just ignore and install? I have downloaded the file several times and keep getting the same error.

MD5 matches what you posted on the previous page also.
[HTC Droid DNA] CharliesTheMan:
I think there might be an option in clockwork mod to disable that signature check
[HTC Droid DNA] Irieone:
I just never had the error before when doing OTA on Viper so I thought the file might be messed.
[HTC Droid DNA] nitsuj17:
signature verification will fail using cwr most of the time (actually suprising when it doesnt)

it installs properly with twrp, but i dont use twrp because of other issues personally
[HTC Droid DNA] Technogen:
Now I can't bring up ASOP lock screen, and none of the quick launch icons show.

Edit

Running fix permissions can swap between the launchers, have to do it each time. Still don't have quick launch on the HTC screens, and can't change what program it launches on ASOP.
[HTC Droid DNA] badfishie:
Flashing 1.3.3 now. I thought it was just something on my end because i couldnt get the Sense lock screen. Thanks again for another quick fix and update. Love this ROM
[HTC Droid DNA] rajuabju:
2 updates in 2 days?

Dangerous... people might start having expectations or something!

but thx for the quick repairs
[HTC Droid DNA] badogg:
Weird. I installed the OTA, all went fine. When the phone rebooted, I had the sense pull ring to unlock. So I did it, then it went to the face unlock, said something about me losing weight, made me do a fingerprint scan on the screen, then asked for my authorization to allow president Obama to listen to all my calls and monitor my text, and then requested a DNA sample.

Just kidding (obviously), the OTA worked fine and I have the sense unlock screen back. Thanks for the quick fix! :D
[HTC Droid DNA] nitsuj17:
hes not joking, we added serious spyware into this update and are currently buying 3D tv's and boats with yo money! :p
[HTC Droid DNA] HellRayzer:
I have a small question. I found in the tweaks how to turn on the 3 dot extra menu, only thing is when you turn that it shows up on the bottom of a lot of apps. How can I set it one of the bottom buttons for long press to activate it? It's amazing how often you need it, but you don't always want it there.
[HTC Droid DNA] Vinchenzop:
You can leave that on-screen button hidden, and set one of the hardware buttons to 'menu'. VenomTweaks - buttons - 'Longpress *' category
[HTC Droid DNA] voxigenboy:
not sure if I just haven't enabled something, but when I go to 'google play', the menu option that's normally in the upper right corner of the play screen is not there... so I have no way of going to my apps, settings, etc....

is there an option somewhere in the tweaks to fix this or did something happen to the install ?
[HTC Droid DNA] HOOKEDONDROID:
Read one post above yours...:rolleyes:
[HTC Droid DNA] voxigenboy:
so you can't actually get the menu icon to appear within the google play app, you just have to rely on the longpress modification. that's fine also, just wondered about the icon bit within the app.
[HTC Droid DNA] HOOKEDONDROID:
Mine isn't quite a longpress. I just tap my recents button on bottom right and it brings up the menu. I like it better than the original stock menu 3 dot bs
[HTC Droid DNA] treadwayj:
I flash the mod here... http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=35345471&postcount=1 which allows you in the settings to set your recent apps button to the menu button. that plus turning on the 3 button menu option in venom tweaks should get you what you want
[HTC Droid DNA] Vinchenzop:
You don't need to flash that mod, just go into venom tweaks, buttons tab, Shortpress Recents. Flashing that mod might break other tweaks.
[HTC Droid DNA] HellRayzer:
Thanks guys, makes life easier. For some reason the first time I went to long press to change it, it didn't give me the menu option. All good now. Now I wish there was a way to save the side bar! Every time you reboot your phone you have to set it up again. Am I missing something?
[HTC Droid DNA] tehknics:
So I just did a quick scan thru the thread for a Hulu Plus fix and wasn't able to come up with anything. If there has been a fix or workaround and I'm just too blind to see it, could someone point me in the right direction?

If it's still borked, no worries, sometimes I'm just too lazy when I travel to get my laptop out to watch a show :highfive:
[HTC Droid DNA] rfarrah:
Yesterday I switched themes and skins (from Red to Blue) and when I did so, the HTC lockscreen suddenly didn't have any shortcuts. I tried to manually enter them in Tweaks, but that didn't work either. So I thought, hmmmmmm, I guess I DO need to upgrade to 1.3.3 (would have done it anyway, eventually).

I didn't get the OTA notification, so I flashed the 1.3.1 to 1.3.3 update in Recovery. Still no lockscreen shortcuts. So I switched to the AOSP lockscreen, which is cool, but didn't let me customize my own shortcuts. So back to HTC lockscreen and this time I changed the lockscreen location to Default, rather than Arc - still no lockscreen shortcuts. Hmmmm, maybe it's the skin....?

So.... in case anybody else is seeing this - just thought I'd share.

UPDATE: In double-checking everything I found that somehow the little box in Personalize> Lockscreen Shortcuts got unchecked. Duh.....
[HTC Droid DNA] UltraMagnus0001:
I keep getting distortions with live wallpapers in landscape, in portrait it's fine. When it happens I have to re apply the wallpapers by switching to another.
[HTC Droid DNA] Jaggar345:
Does this rom have mms working I can't seem to send mine it could be because I have bad service here but I'm not sure.

Thanks in advanced
[HTC Droid DNA] nitsuj17:
Yes mms works like stock for Verizon users

Gsm users have issues however
[HTC Droid DNA] ML417:
Nits I still miss the menu button set up you had on UKB back in the day where it doesn't hide the menu button in apps that have them, yet hides the bottom 3 dot menu when apps don't have one built in. Otherwise your rom a lot less problems than stock in my opinion, also I can confirm the LWP being funky on landscape but I always figured it was due to their app not used to landscape home screens.
[HTC Droid DNA] Jaggar345:
Must be my horrible service at home. Thanks
[HTC Droid DNA] barski:
I'm not so sure it's your service. I'm on Verizon as well and have 4G where I live and mms do not send either. I installed handcent and every mms goes through.
[HTC Droid DNA] pigeonxda:
I too am unable to send an mms on the stock client, works on handcent as a backup.

GPS altitude issue

I'm having a problem with GPS altitude accuracy since rooting last weekend. I use Endomondo to track my bike rides, and since rooting, my rides look like I'm riding in the mountains of Colorado instead of the flat lands of Indiana. Here is my typical ride to work a week ago when I was still stock:

The green line is speed, the grey line is elevation.

Here is the same ride this week since I rooted and installed ViperDNA:

The speed seems to track fine, but the altitude is way off. I searched on this thread and just did the options suggested in post 4660 which was to open locations and uncheck everything, reboot, then set them back on. I haven't done a ride since doing that, but just wondered if there are any other suggestions?
[HTC Droid DNA] nitsuj17:
send us logcats of mms not sending/receiving on stock app and let me know if you are on wifi/3g/lte and if using verizon or not
[HTC Droid DNA] dksunic:
thanks for your share
[HTC Droid DNA] Vinchenzop:
I send mms messages quite often with the stock messaging app, over wifi and Verizon's network. Never have an issue.
[HTC Droid DNA] Jaggar345:
I can confirm that mms is not working for me with the stock messaging app. Any fix for this?
[HTC Droid DNA] kelvinnotcalvin:
No issues sending mms over 4g in atlanta.
[HTC Droid DNA] Droidem:
It works for me. Just sent a test to my wife.

Have you tried a fresh install?

Sent from my HTC6435LVW ViperDNA
[HTC Droid DNA] Jaggar345:
Yeah I did a fresh install yesterday of this rom I wiped everything and flashed it. Maybe my apn settings are messed up is there a way I can see or change them through this rom? Other than mms not working this rom is by far my favorite. Should I try calling Verizon and see if it's an issue on their end?
[HTC Droid DNA] Technogen:
Does not send or receive for me via stock on vzw 4g but does via Verizon messager. I'll get a logcat later
[HTC Droid DNA] nitsuj17:
for this with mms issues, how long have you had them? did you install aosp mms app in aroma?
[HTC Droid DNA] Jaggar345:
Yeah I installed aosp messanger in aroma installer. I only flashed this yesterday and since then have no been able to send mms messages sms works fine. This is the only problem with the rom other than that I love it.

Flash Stuck at 97.05%

Flashing to the Venom Rom and it got hung up at 97.05%. Howe can I abort and try a reflash?

Got IT!
[HTC Droid DNA] Mnorton1228:
Just flashed this yesterday afternoon. So far so good. Everything is working flawlessly. By far one of the best Roms I've ever flashed to any device. Love all the tweaks and customization. Matte black sense skin plus Sense 5 icons is soooo gooood lol. :D
[HTC Droid DNA] beyondinferno:
Does lock screen volume lock work for anyone? Meaning you can't adjust the volume from a locked screen unless music is playing. It's in venom tweaks but isn't working for me. I'm still about to change the volume.
[HTC Droid DNA] nitsuj17:
actually thats happening because we *fixed* a broken tweak :silly:

to renable volume key on lockscreen (changing volume w/o music playing) toggle tweaks > lockscreen > disable volume keys
[HTC Droid DNA] beyondinferno:
I worded that poorly. I don't want the volume keys to work on the lock screen. I enabled disable volume keys and I can still adjust the volume on the lock screen.
[HTC Droid DNA] Vinchenzop:
The mms issue with the Aosp variance of the messaging app has been present for a while. Both nitsuj17 and myself have looked at it and can't figure out what the reason is that it is not working.

If mms is important to you, you will have to use the stock (sense) messaging app, or 3rd party (handcent, chomp, etc) app for mms messages.
