GPS Fix:

Go into Settings\Location and make sure all 4 boxes are checked. If not, check them all and profit. If so, uncheck all the boxes and reboot. Once back in Android, go back into Location and check all the boxes again and profit.

Account sync:

This one is a LOT less easy to fix and usually involves reinstalling the ROM. No one is really sure why it happens it just does. Here are some things that might work, though:

1) Go into Settings\Apps\All and scroll to Google Services Framework. Clear any cache and data. Go into Accounts & Sync and turn Auto sync off. Reboot and turn Auto sync back on. If that doesn't work...

2) Repeat both of the steps prior to rebooting in step 1 and add going back into settings\apps\all and delete the cache and data in Google Account Manager. Reboot and once back in Android, click the Play Store and log in with your Google account again. Go back into settings and turn Auto sync back on. If that doesn't work...

3) Unfortunately, you have to reinstall the ROM. Don't forget to do a factory reset, format system, delete dalvik cache x3 each in recovery. Restoring data will probably be a bad idea if you did on the last install and are having they sync issue.

Good luck,

Doc

just a fyi for those curious

there will probably still be updated tweaks for awhile for sense4+, as m0narx won't be working on sense5 stuff until the tegra onex+ gets its sense5 update (that could be before or after us, idk)....and since hes the driving force of all things :p

honestly? we could probably port a decent amount of tweaks to a sense5 rom now....but i dont see it being worth the time to have a buggy venom build that doesnt live up to our standards...and the tweaks will probably be rewritten anyway eventually so it would be wasted work at some point (kind of like how 1.0.0 viperdna was completely different than 1.1.0)

so we will keep chugging along on the 2.04 base for awhile....vin has already fixed some things like xloud not working, and now aosp recents showing over the aosp lockscreen is fixed too...a few new tweaks have been added already and we are working on fixing others :)

[HTC Droid DNA] nitsuj17:
will look into it
[HTC Droid DNA] rfarrah:
Only speaking for myself here, but FWIW I don't have much interest in Sense 5 stuff. Just haven't seen much about it that impresses me. I know we'll all probably get there sooner or later, but I'm in no rush. Thanks!
[HTC Droid DNA] nitsuj17:
yeah at some point we'll have android 4.2.2 and sense5 as our stock rom, but thats probably still a few months away anyway
[HTC Droid DNA] HOOKEDONDROID:
Do you have power saver under power settings enabled? If so, go into the settings for power saver, turn it off then uncheck autosync. Turn it back on, good to go.
[HTC Droid DNA] c5satellite2:
No, good idea though. It was the first thing I checked.

By then Android 5.0 will be out haha
[HTC Droid DNA] nitsuj17:
who knows :silly:

it was encouraging to here its been in testing for awhile though...so at least some test builds are at verizon

anyway, running a setup on 1.2.1 beta for 1.15 kernels....despite not supporting it, i want to make sure it will run, so i running the rom w/ dsb's stock r/w kernel for 1.15 this weekend to see if anything comes up
[HTC Droid DNA] gepaut85:
getting excited for an update....wont ask for an eta of course!
[HTC Droid DNA] crpalmer:
What is the change to support 1.15 kernels? Is it downgrading video libraries to the pre-OTA update?

FYI, this morning I put up a test (aka experimental) custom kernel that appears to be working well with 1.2.0. The kernel updates the kgsl driver to a newer version from CAF. It seems to work well with the new Verizon update (but only with a grand total of 3 testers)..

I'm not sure when you were thinking of releasing the 1.2.1, but it might be interesting to see how this test kernel works out. It will be easy enough for other kernel developers to include the commits if it seems to be solid and that may avoid you needing to worry about supporting the old kernels.

If anyone else wants to try it, you can install the kernel in my test kernels post:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=37695547&postcount=2

If you decide you don't like it, be warned that the easiest and safest way to uninstall it would be dirty flash 1.2.0 to restore the boot.img and the modules.

PS - I'm very happy to finally be running 1.2.0!
[HTC Droid DNA] nitsuj17:
how i did it for now was swap in 1.15 libs from viper 1.1.0...specifically what i used was

lib/egl (all files)

lib/hw/hwcomposer.msm8960.so

lib/libgsl.so

lib/libsurfaceflinger.so

seems good so far

new venom hub from m0narx as well :)
[HTC Droid DNA] crpalmer:
Yeah, that's what I was expecting. Upgrading the video drivers in the kernel does sound like it should work (for all OTA based ROMs) without downgrading those libraries. If more testers have good results, you can put the responsibility back on the kernel devs...
[HTC Droid DNA] nitsuj17:
that would be fantastic :)
[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
Hopefully it works out, the inability to use a custom kernel has stopped me from using Viper.
[HTC Droid DNA] crpalmer:
If you're still happy with my 1.3.0 test kernel you were running this morning, try viper 1.2.0 and that kernel and let me know how it works.

Anyways, i think the "one" is sexy as hell! And im gonna try n get my hands on one. And its a htc product, so that makes it even better. ;)
[HTC Droid DNA] c5satellite2:
Agreed, but there are plenty of facebook whores and junkies out there.

Personally I do not have a facebook account, and will NEVER have one.

I have friends in the real world, don't need a website to tell me how many "friends"(not real) I have, and don't care if Joe John Mary or Sue from high school want to catch up(there is a reason I am not friends with them in the first place). I have chosen my friends over the years in REALITY! F%@k wastebook and crapple.

For feedback, questions, bug reports, etc. related to my kernel, please use my crpalmer kernel thread in Original Android Development.

Also, to avoid cluttering this thread, I will not be posting links to new test versions here either. Again, use my thread, not this one.

Crpalmer's 1.2.6 kernel is not designed to work with viper 1.2 or any other 2.04 ota based roms.

Use his 1.3.0. It's on his second post. That version is modified to be able to use on viper 1.2.0.

Got it. Thanks. Just got the phone yesterday, so I'm a little out of the loop on things.

All good, no worries. There has been some confusion and new developments on the kernel front the past day or so...

Welcome to ViperDNA! How you liking the DNA?
[HTC Droid DNA] KyleKatastrophe:
So Joelz just posted a pretty solid base.......and a team BAMF sense 5 rom......:)
[HTC Droid DNA] jayochs:
meh i don't like sense 5. i think i'll be staying with sense 4+ for a long time.
[HTC Droid DNA] skynet11:
Nvm - corrected myself :D
[HTC Droid DNA] Bigandrewgold:
Everyone says that, then they use sense back, then they never go back.
[HTC Droid DNA] jayochs:
i've flashed sense 5 a total of about 7 times now.

i really have tried to like it. seriously, i've forced myself...

and in the end, every single time, i came back to sense 4+ on this rom. sense 5 is just NOT nearly as good, smooth, or beautiful looking as 4+ is. i'm glad this team is sticking to sense 4+ for a while. i have no desire to ever run sense 5. i personally don't even want the HTC One as badly as i did anymore, that's how much i hate sense 5.
[HTC Droid DNA] CharliesTheMan:
I like em both and really like having different sense versions available for development.

Like old school on the bolt and inc when there were three or four sense versions to choose from.
[HTC Droid DNA] EchoX860:
As long as there's no way to get rid of BlinkFeed, I'm a Sense 4+ Guy
[HTC Droid DNA] jellydroid13:
Different launcher or just never use that homescreen... I don't get why everyone is making such a big deal about it.
[HTC Droid DNA] EchoX860:
Because Sense is the best UI available, and I have my phone set up the way I like it., 7 home screens, and I set it up the same way each Sense phone I get. I shouldn't be forced to give up a screen for some crappy feed I'm never gonna use
[HTC Droid DNA] cbrown245:
Blink feed is the only good thing about sense 5 , needs to be more themeable and it would be awesome , I don't care for the homescreen scroll and the lack of more widgets , , port blink feed to sense 4+ and that would be awesome . Imo . But viper is my daily , great work Nits.
[HTC Droid DNA] madAdam6LOVE:
Flipboard is a nice app like Blinkfeed.
[HTC Droid DNA] Droidem:
Flipboard is nice but I'm still using pulse. I don't need a fancy scroll to view my feeds.

Nitsuj, have you or any other dev on the DNA found a way to remove the NFC icon completely? I've only seen people make it invisible but still there.
[HTC Droid DNA] jayochs:
I mean people sit there and call beats audio a huge gimmick (when in fact I actually enjoy it because I hated playing with eqs on my gs3 to get a decent sound..) but blink feed is the biggest gimmick they have, and unlike beats, can't be turned off. it's pointless. I don't want what the idiots on my Facebook post front and center on my phone. it's not important to me that jimmy is taking a dump or Ashley is so hungover. that's why I have Facebook.. to read that stuff when I'm interested. yeah I never defaulted it as my home screen and I turned everything off but hey now there's a home screen lost on me.

I use the HTC calendar widget and that's one of the main reasons why I use HTC phones.. bc of the widgets. their agenda widget now only is 4x1,wbereas it could be as big as 4x4 previously.. which I use. I use an entire home screen foe the agenda and an entire one for the 4x4 monthly calendar. can't do that on sense 5 and even if I could, I don't have enough room because I can't have 7 home screens... nor can I rearrange them. I just think sense 5 is a step in the wrong direction.

[HTC Droid DNA] CharliesTheMan:
I thought Blinkfeed was the dumbest thing ever, until I used it. However I don't do facebook and social networking.

I'm running sense 4+ though and will be for quite a while, I run multiple roms at the same time. I enjoy kernels a lot so I'm thrilled with the 2.0.4 patch crpalmer used and Zarboz is pulling now.

One thing I really like about Sense 5 is that regular non power users, who are either Android lightweights or currently on another OS are so impressed with sense 5 and blinkfeed. They don't manufacture, market, and sell phones with users like me as the target demographic. The majority of consumers could care less about an unlocked bootloader, s off, or what GPU is in their phone.

So in order for HTC and Sense to succeed and grow and go in what I hope will be the right direction, they've got to start winning over converts either from other brands or other operating systems.

Now if only HTC would put Viper on every handset from the factory, the rest would he irrelevant :D
[HTC Droid DNA] Bigandrewgold:
Um, you don't have to use blinkfeed to view your social media feeds, you can use it to view news, like most people do. I use it as a replacement for flipboard. And also, it's not 'front and center', it's off to the side, and you don't have to see it if you don't want to.

I do agree with you about the widgets though
[HTC Droid DNA] docnok63:

[HTC Droid DNA] Droidem:
It has been said earlier that for the betas, they are a closed beta. What that means is if your not already a venom beta tester, you won't be one by asking. If nitsuj decides to open the beta up(highly unlikely) or ask for more testers the he will do so himself.

(p.s. I found out the hard way too so don't feel so bad.)

Just enjoy the ride that we are on.
