Nitsuj & Vin - have you guys seen this --> http://phandroid.com/2013/07/15/modaco-switch-htc-one-video/

This would be pretty sweet if it could work on the DNA once Sense 5 / 4.2.2 is officially on our devices.
[HTC Droid DNA] nitsuj17:
depends on much bigger it would make the rom.zip....we typically have desense options in aroma
[HTC Droid DNA] nitsuj17:
1.3.4 is available now via venom ota

[HTC Droid DNA] rndchef:
I searched to see if there are any links to DL given before since androidhost is crawling and this is one big ROM. Has anyone listed another link to DL? Thanks.
[HTC Droid DNA] rfarrah:
I typically just download whatever update and install manually. This time I thought I'd try the OTA, but can't find how to trigger it on my phone. A search got me this from Nits:

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

....but I don't seem to have that option.

What am I missing? Thanks!
[HTC Droid DNA] Infinite Jest:
I downloaded the update via OTA, but while the changelog shows the correct version, it keeps downloading the 1.3.2 to 1.3.3 zip. Anyone else run into this?
[HTC Droid DNA] Vinchenzop:
I'm looking into it right now, but i believe that to be the right file, just named incorrectly

EDIT: Check again, it should be 1.3.3 - 1.3.4 now.
[HTC Droid DNA] reaverclan:
Mine downloads fine but has wrong md5 and aborts when flashing in cwm. Probably because of downloading it on the phone I'll get it off the pc later.

my statusbar gone missing after the ota....
[HTC Droid DNA] Vinchenzop:
Here, you can get the right file from my dev-host. It should be ~17Mbs in size.
[HTC Droid DNA] reaverclan:
Well that's an inconvenience lol, try going to venom settings and in like the status bar tab them hit up top to restart your status bar it might come back.

HTC lockscreen missing in v1.3.4 as it was in v1.3.2. Solution again the same. Use Root Explorer to extract htclockscreen.apk from full 1.3.0 ROM download (from system/app of zip file) and copy to system/app, reboot.
[HTC Droid DNA] nitsuj17:
sorry for the mistake guys, uploaded the wrong file :eek:

the one vin links is correct
[HTC Droid DNA] xlxcrossing:
Me too. Is the one vin linked ok to not produce the issue or is it the same file from OTA
[HTC Droid DNA] reaverclan:
Vins link is good it is missing the htc lockscreen though and it seems all animated backgrounds break system ui.

Edit: did this reinstall the sense launcher if I originally used aosp then just installed apex since now sense is in my ram again.

[HTC Droid DNA] JWhetstone02:
this did re-install Rosie.apk

i too use desensed, and sense came back. luckily the only file you need to rid yourself of is /system/app/Rosie.apk

just delete it and you're back to normal :)
[HTC Droid DNA] Vinchenzop:
The ota is fixed via venom ota. It will download the correct file now
[HTC Droid DNA] Infinite Jest:
Is the pulldown menu supposed to be transparent?
[HTC Droid DNA] reaverclan:
K thanks

[HTC Droid DNA] mrhumble1:
So I chose to download the update. It completed, and asked if I wanted to proceed. I said yes and the phone booted into TWRP. It's just sitting there doing nothing. What do I do now??

EDIT: I rebooted and it is still on 1.3.3. I'll wait and try again laters.
[HTC Droid DNA] yearn2burn:
In TWRP click install, navigate to download folder, select the update file and swipe to install.
[HTC Droid DNA] Vinchenzop:
Change it via tweaks. Statusbar tab. Notification Background color... About halfway down the list. The horizontal slider dictates the transparency gradient.

Likely you've flashed an android 4.2.2 rom and it reconfigured your sdcard. You'll have to navigate to the file yourself. Most likely from TWRP data/media/Downloads or /data/media/0/Downloads
[HTC Droid DNA] xlxcrossing:
I can confirm pulling systemui.apk from full rom zip and pasting into system/app brings back statusbar and doesn't touch your theming to it if you have any. Also thanks for the transparent notification background because until now this tweak never worked for me. It always stayed grey no matter what I set the transparency to.

Unless I'm doing something wrong animations don't seem to work for notification pulldown - just stock grey background appears when animation is applied. App drawer works fine though. These settings seem to work on the fly so I didn't attempt phone reboots. The solid background status bar tweak seems to not function either both the bar and the notification area remain stock when this tweak is applied.
[HTC Droid DNA] mrhumble1:
Is everyone going to have to do this or is it an isolated issue??
[HTC Droid DNA] Vinchenzop:
For the people that say "there is no systemui.apk"...what exactly are you saying? There isn't one in the OTA? Or the isn't one in /system/app (of your phone)?

Also, are you GSM users or Verizon?

I will try to get a full ROM uploaded within the hour. I thought the link nitsuj17 gave me was for the full ROM and it turned out to just be for the OTA.

No Sleep with ButtonBlink

First off, awesome ROM. My hat is off to the devs.

I'm currently in the process of chasing battery drain. Clean installed 1.3.3 over a week ago and was never able to get more than 11 hours unplugged, 3 hours screen on. I tried Beastmode and Crpalmer with no change. Started log catting to check for rogue apps before finally doing a clean flash this afternoon of 1.3.3 and Beaups latest. Shortly after re installing, I installed the 1.3.4 update.

After the clean flash, the only apps I installed were Chrome, Chrome to phone, GoSMS, GSam and Pandora. After 2 hours and 10 minutes of up time, my wake time was 2 hours and 9 minutes generated by Android System (as shown in GSam). After drilling down further, the ButtonsBlink process was wakelocked at 2h 7m. I removed all button blink notifications and restarted. Now, after 26 minutes of unplugged time, I have 17 minutes of wake time generated from the kernel. So, wake time is going down, but still seems substantial for very minimal processes running.

Has anyone else seen this yet?

Thanks again for the awesome rom, Team Venom.
[HTC Droid DNA] Mnorton1228:
Installed update fine. Still the best rom I've used to date. My lock screen did convert to an AOSP style lock screen but that is perfectly fine with me. I actually kind of like it. No other issues to report at all. Thank you for the hard work guys!
[HTC Droid DNA] hobby31:
With this update I've lost HTC lockscreen. I like the weather lockscreen. If I go into venom tweeks the asop screen is not checked. I've tied enabling it, rebooting, then disabling it. Asop stays.
[HTC Droid DNA] nycqns983:
I am having the exact same problem, have you figured out a fix for it yet?
[HTC Droid DNA] hobby31:
Not yet, think I'll switch back to 1.3.3 till its solved
[HTC Droid DNA] ctyonthehil:
Yearn2burn posted this a couple pages back. It may be worth a shot.

"Use Root Explorer to extract htclockscreen.apk from full 1.3.0 ROM download (from system/app of zip file) and copy to system/app, reboot."
[HTC Droid DNA] nycqns983:
Has anyone tried this yet?
[HTC Droid DNA] mrhumble1:
After I installed 1.3.4 I tried to play with some status bar setting but it didn't look like any were sticking so I tried rebooting.

After I reboot now I get the standard JB lock screen but I can't unlock the phone. As soon as I touch the lock dial the phone reboots.

So I went to TWRP and did an easy wipe (dalvik and cache) and then I fixed permissions. Now the phone booted up and switched to Widget Locker which is what it normally does.

I am kinda afraid to touch anything. Any suggestions on how I can jump back to 1.3.3? Should I just flash the OTA from 1.3.1-1.3.3??
[HTC Droid DNA] Vinchenzop:
I don't know what nitsuj17 did, but I'll be fixing everything here shortly. People on 1.3.3 still will receive an update that won't delete your htc lockscreen and will update you too 1.3.5.

And people on 1.3.4 will receive an update that will re-add the htclockscreen.apk and update you to 1.3.5.

Give me a few minutes.

Also, the full rom will be uploaded tonight.
[HTC Droid DNA] nycqns983:
You, sir, are a rockstar!
[HTC Droid DNA] Vinchenzop:
Go ahead and check for an update. I just tested both of them, and no issues.
[HTC Droid DNA] nycqns983:
Success!
[HTC Droid DNA] mrhumble1:
I installed the OTA and it looks like all is well.

I still can't apply any custom GPS status bar icons but that's another story...
[HTC Droid DNA] Vinchenzop:
That's all in part due to the mods being made for gsm devices show up in our (cdma) hub. It's likely theming the active gps (not the crosshairs), as that's what gsm devices use as their icons. If you use the statusbar mod from the rom.zip (additions/theme/app/venom.systemui.theme venom.apk) for instance, it will theme the gps icon.
[HTC Droid DNA] mrhumble1:
Will installing the theme .apk overwrite all the other custom statusbar mods? I have set some other icons that I really like (battery, wifi, 4, etc) and I'd like to keep them.

I might as well take a minute to thank all the Team Venom devs for creating such an incredible ROM. I did a lot of research before I got the DNA last week and I must say the whole process of gaining S-OFF, pushing TWRP, then installing the ViperDNA ROM has been almost completely painless. This is not because I have any special skills, but because you guys work so hard to create awesome stuffs.

You guys rock! :good:
[HTC Droid DNA] Vinchenzop:
Installing it will not remove anything you have set. Once installed, you can change just the gps icon to the red venom icon, or any other that you find to work without affecting the other themed icons
[HTC Droid DNA] reaverclan:
i just took htclockscreen.apk from the 1.3.1 rom and put it in system/app and all is good then deleted laucher2 and rosie sincei use apex and dont have animated status bar so its there and the data thing is cool and working with no issues. is this lockscreent he same or an out of date version? and can i delete the aosp lockscreen apk fine without venom tweaks crashing? i figure i can since it didn't crash with htc's missing.

Thanks for the amazing support as always.

EDIT: just noticed 1.3.5 ota is out to fix these things, if i did what is listed above do i need it? nvm downloaded and saw it was just the lockscreen but where can i set the soft key notifications i cant find that in tweaks anywhere?
[HTC Droid DNA] mrhumble1:
This worked like a champ, but I am not a fan of the red icons. I really like the Colourise and wmg316 icon packs from the Venom Hub. Is there anywhere else to get icons or icon packs besides Venom Hub??
[HTC Droid DNA] Vinchenzop:
Tweaks - misc under the header 'notifications'.

You can pull the icons from your favorite and rename them to what they're named in the red venom theme, and drag and drop your new icons in there.

This is gonna take a little effort so I'll look into it this weekend. If anyone else knows of some sweet status bar icons please let us know.

Full rom is now available in the 2nd post! Sorry for the delay. My cousin stopped out for a few drinks and time got away from me. Night everyone, I've gotta wake up in 4 hours....so, see ya soon.

[HTC Droid DNA] xlxcrossing:
For me there was no systemui.apk in system/app. I don't know how this happened all I did was flash the OTA. I flashed 2x to be sure it wasn't the flashing process or a bad download. It was an easy fix of putting it back nonetheless:good:

Can anyone confirm animations working for notification area so I can verify I'm being dumb?
[HTC Droid DNA] Vinchenzop:
I can confirm you're dumb. ;) it works fine for me. Where did you pull the systemui from?

Not a typo. Though it needs to be changed, I can't change it, nitsuj17 needs to. The update was supposed to just be 1.3.4, but I had to move it to 1.3.5 to fix those that took the initial update that deleted the Htclockscreen.apk. It'll be corrected in the op/title today.
[HTC Droid DNA] xlxcrossing:
Viper 3.0. Transparency never worked before but now does but animations don't just stays stuck on the last still image applied background....weird but I'd rather have transparency so I'm happy.
[HTC Droid DNA] Vinchenzop:
You, sir, have a private message.
[HTC Droid DNA] xlxcrossing:
I know someone asked this already but is it possible to give the GPS reticle a proper burial?
[HTC Droid DNA] Vinchenzop:
In what sense? You can hide it from your statusbar.

And is your animated background working now?
[HTC Droid DNA] yearn2burn:
I can't find the new status bar pulldown animation tweak. Anyone know where it is?

Also, I tried the status bar brightness slider and it didn't seem to do anything. Anyone get that to work?
[HTC Droid DNA] Vinchenzop:
1. Halfway down the statusbar tab of tweaks, find 'use background image', it'll give you the option for image or animated.

2. Be sure you didn't have 'autobrightness' turned on. It definitely works, but it can be tough to find the correct location to drag your finger.
[HTC Droid DNA] EchoX860:
Is the non-transparent gradient status bar back? In the last update it was either gradient that was transparent on the home screen, or just black.
[HTC Droid DNA] Vinchenzop:
Look under the statusbar theme page of tweaks, like where you'd set custom icons for statusbar. It's in there. "transparency"
[HTC Droid DNA] bossei:
Does this ROM support sense 5?
[HTC Droid DNA] slimc84:
That's odd. I don't recall mine doing that but will have to check once it reaches 15% and below.

Mines at 13%. Auto brightness off, cm mod selected. So , no, mine didnt go dimmer. But, it does do that with the battery saver, and auto turned on.

[HTC Droid DNA] rayfin:
I've been using this ROM since release. It's been stable. Only 1 random reboot, while playing Ingress. I'd also like the HTC location services to be removed from the status bar and not GPS altogether. I'd also like to see the NFC icon removed. I dislike the fact that it remaps Holo apps menu buttons to the recents hardware key for example, while using that feature. Other ROMs don't remap Holo apps. They just remapp old school apps that still use the bottom menu. The ROM is feature packed, yet some things I'd like to see added such as AOSP keyboard and some things removed such as additional HTC crapware. All in all, it's a decent ROM. As I said the amount of features are great. However, it seems with the amount of features comes some issues. The battery on this ROM is horrible. I've given this ROM a chance to see if the issue resolves itself or if a number of factors come in to play, they don't. It's the ROM. Android System is consuming a lot of battery life. I'm losing 10% an hour while on WiFi at home and at work. Battery is horrendous. I was able to fix the "issues" I had with the ROM myself, but I can't stay on this until battery life improves.

Good work Justin on the initial release the community appreciates your work and contribution. I'll check back in a few weeks (unless an AOSP ROM is available by then.)
[HTC Droid DNA] nitsuj17:
whats the difference if holo menu is available or accessing it from recents keys (im curious, first thing i do is remap it) the hard key should bring up the same options (should be able to bring them back checking the 3 dot menu option in venom tweaks though)

i dont know what to tell you about battery life, the difference is negligible from stock to me...i still get 3-4 hours screen on time per charge and testers all reported similar battery life to stock and other roms, and tweaks code doesnt affect battery either (or shouldnt).....not all roms agree with all phones though

as for removing more htc stuff and replacing them with aosp variants? i can always improve the desense option in aroma, but my priorities are with the sense features, since it is a sense phone, and im a sense fan ;)

there will probably be an option to remove the nfc icon in the future, but i havent even looked at it yet, so odds are it wont be until much later
[HTC Droid DNA] termin8tor22:
Thanks so much for putting it up, I greatly appreciate it, I'm currently working on a status bar theme too!
[HTC Droid DNA] bossei:
I've been on this ROM for two days going on the third and I love it. I was on UKB before this and loved that too. The only thing I don't really like or difference between UKB and this ROM is the battery live. On UKB I could go all day with lots of talking, texting, and surfing with both Wi-Fi usage and LTE and I would still have about 40% battery left. Not so much with this ROM. I'm curious as to what happened? I haven't turned on a whole of features, my screen times out at 30 seconds just like before. I have the same amount of widgets and so far UKB is kicking this ROM's a$$ on battery life.

Lastly, the battery stats is not reporting correctly either for me. Yesterday it say I had 2 hours of usage time when the phone had been running for at least 5 hours. What's that about? Thoughts?

Thanks again for the hard work and great ROM. Waiting patiently for an update.

I am a new user for this rom i love everything about it.. Thanks for such quality work, however i can also say that my battery peformance has decreased. Battery drainage is much quicker than stock and other roms ive tried. Not a huge deal so far just thought id share my thoughts
[HTC Droid DNA] zeroxg4:
Not having any battery issues here. I EASILY get at LEAST one day (24 hours) with moderate usage. The battery for me lasts freaking forever compared to most phones that I've had.

Re: (Rom)(1.20.13)Team Venom Presents ViperDNA 1.0.1 l Tweaks l OTA l EQS l Venom HUB

One and only issue I have had with every build. In setup when selecting what apps not to install I always select facebook to not install because I don't use it will never use it don't want it. Yet for some reason it always still installs. I use titanium to remove it no big deal. But why does it still install when I select it not to.

[HTC Droid DNA] nitsuj17:
because i havent fixed the package name in the aroma script to remove it yet :silly:
[HTC Droid DNA] bossei:
What ROM are you comparing this to? I'm comparing to UKB for example.
[HTC Droid DNA] zeroxg4:
Well I wasn't comparing it to any ROMs per se (I mentioned compared to most phones that I've used) but the battery life seems similar / better than UKB (at least for me, with the same / more usage). This of course is probably kernel related (I always stick with the one that comes with the ROM)

How do I turn off the batt saver? My auto brightness is off.
[HTC Droid DNA] jonno95:
I love all the features in this Rom. Simply amazing all the things that can be done. Even if there were no updates to this, I can't see a reason why i would ever change. My battery life has been normal compared to stock, which for me is about 40 hours (2-3 hours screen on time).

it's fun to see the suggestions and how great nit is with answering them all, but i just hope those debating rather or not to try this rom aren't distracted by all the creative ideas that are thrown at nit. As soon as i saw that this thread was created, i donated, then started my download. Thanks again for the great rom nit.
[HTC Droid DNA] Vinchenzop:
It will be based on sense 5 when we receive the official update from htc/verizon. As for now, it's sense 4+.

You can just download the update from the 2nd post.
[HTC Droid DNA] adampdx:
Even before the update I wasn't able to conjure the HTC lockscreen. The AOSP lockscreen isn't so bad, but I can't find out how to customize it. And even if I drag to the phone or messaging icon the phone just unlocks and doesn't take me to the app. The only link that works is the camera link.
[HTC Droid DNA] mrhumble1:
FYI, you can use ANY launcher you like. The same applies to lock screens (I use WidgetLocker and it works like a champ). I like Nova Launcher and use it with every phone I get. I'm using it with this ROM and it works just fine. That's why I chose to install ViperDNA with Sense. I wanted to keep any other sense goodies that might be around while still using Nova.

Speaking of goodies, I have a question about the recent apps function. Is there any secret button that will dismiss all the apps in the recent list or do I have to swipe my finger up for each one??
[HTC Droid DNA] reaverclan:
Swipe for each one:(

Sent from my VIPER DNA
[HTC Droid DNA] mrhumble1:
How does one submit a feature request?? This is the only thing I could possible want that is not included in the ROM. Wait, check that, I guess I could ask that a date option be added for the clock in the status bar.

So, how does one submit a feature request??
[HTC Droid DNA] Vinchenzop:
What is the thing you want?
[HTC Droid DNA] reaverclan:
He wants it where you have a button or like for instance hold back while in the recent apps to close all programs instead of having to swipe them all away one by one and then he wants the date to be next to the clock in the status bar like in aokp I believe.
