I looked around and could not find an answer anywhere.. id really love to make it where, if I held my home button down I got voice search. is it possible? im running a customer touchwiz rom.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] weehooherod2:
You may have some luck poking around in the /system/usr/keylayout/ files. Look around in the files in that folder with a text editor (such as the one in Root Explorer). If you can find the line where recent apps is shown, just replace it with SEARCH.

Make a nandroid backup before you screw around with any of that stuff.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Don_Perrignon:
Depends, if you're doing it from the phone (taking apk from system apps), yes. Not sure about a downloaded apk from the store. Otherwise, do it over a computer, copy it onto your phone, and install.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] youngn909boy:
Its this apk that I want on my phone that I see on here...but I'm not rooted...so do I download it to the computer and put on my phone?and that's it?

ooooooh...my goodness...he even acts like an iSheep...

if you're too lazy to even copy over a file onto your SD Card and install it, then don't even think about installing any custom ROMs.

like i already stated in your other thread, try iLauncher, it makes your homescreen look like an iPhone.

you should just do everyone plus yourself a huge favor and go buy an iPhone...we don't need your useless questions here cluttering up the forums.

As for an miui ROM. Of course we have one.

Ok, after I rooted I seem to be having a strange. Battery issue .. anyone have a fix for this? (I user antutu to control CPU and for now I'm busting using it to monitor+ dropped my phone iinto eco mode ( where it usually is) I can counter bat loss by doing the normal stuff but I never had to do.anything other then turn off data before... and even then... but from 10:50 pm to 2:40 am the phone went from 90% to 12% . And that was ..( eco was off) lol ... but I have never had that happen. Before even with that.

Thanks for any advice :)

Check out the battery graph?? Does android system keeps awake all time??
[AT&T LG Optimus G] good4y0u:
75% it was on the whole time...even though screen was off....

This is the screenshot its a straight drop over the hours mentioned ... slope stays steady so its Constant power drain until I noticed ( you can see on the graph)

None of those apps were open, and I had done a restart right before. ( I fell asleep which is why I know I wasn't using it)
[AT&T LG Optimus G] HarshDattani:
On top of the screen i see the skype is running in backgroud..

Just sign out from skype and also close wifi..

Try it bcz to know the exact battery issue trial and error method of clossing apps is best.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] nygfan760:
Skype and Words with Friends destroy battery life if you don't completely kill them. Show us the top of your usage stats, not the graph.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] chrisphoenix7:

[AT&T LG Optimus G] pedal2themedal:
Right after I rooted mine I had terrible battery as well. I ended up reformatting (not wipe, actually formatting my system and caches) and then installed my rom again, fixed permissions and my battery life has been amazing. If I don't use the phone my battery maybe drains five percent all day long. If I use it a lot it will last most of the day as well.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] good4y0u:
yeah mine actually stabilized after i worked with it a bit, i have to open up the bootloader still
[AT&T LG Optimus G] pedal2themedal:
The other thing you should check is you fast dormancy.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Neroga:
If you're flashing custom ROMs it's best to do it at a FULL 100% charge. In the past, before I started doing this, I had major battery life "problems." My phone would drop from 100 to 1 in a matter of hours and just hang on 1% for hours on end. If you haven't done this, download Battery Calibration, turn off your device and plug it in. Once it reaches 100%, turn the device on, run the app, and restart your device WHILE STILL PLUGGED IN. Once everything settles you should be good to go.

[HTC One S] jontexas03:
i obviously didn't fallow the instructions correct somehow, i felt comfortable doing it. but after trying to install rom, after flashing the boot.img my phone didn't load the rom i was trying to put on it. it just stayed at the loading screen for about an hour. and then i went to restore before i had tried to install a rom, and it worked but my screen didn't come on, i could hear it loading and everything. but i could not see anything. then like a smart guy that i am i went to the bootloader and pressed the Factory Reset, and now no back ups are on my phone i can't mount my sd card to the computer to try and put anything on it, any ideas what i could do. is my phone recoverable. i can still get into the bootloader and recovery. but i can't load anything.
[HTC One S] biggyt:
Flash the latest recovery (CWM or TWRP) in fastboot then boot into recovery and you should be able to mount the SD. Then you can copy and ROM onto it and flash it.
[HTC One S] KeemGoodFella:
STEP 1 : proceed to the bootloader by powering off the device, then hold the power button and volume down button, select fastboot via the bootloader

STEP 2 : if you have not already downloaded hasoon2000 all in one kit do so...link:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1604677

STEP 3 : Flash latest recovery if you currently do not have one. (i personally use TWRP 2.3.3.0)

STEP 4 : Boot into recovery... completely shut off device, then hold the power button and volume down button, navigate to recovery via the bootloader.

STEP 5 : once in recovery proceed to the mount menu, if not checked, check unmount SD card from here you should be able to mount to the sd card

STEP 6 : once mounted copy the rom to the SD card

STEP 7 : now proceed to the install menu and flash the zip

STEP 8: now if you are on HBOOT 1.14 or above you have to flash the boot.img via fastboot.

STEP 9 : locate the kernel/boot.img from the rom you've flashed.

STEP 10 : Repeat "STEP 1"

STEP 11 : open up Command Prompt where your "ADB" is located and type in this fastboot flash boot boot.img

STEP 12 : now reboot your phone and you should be okay to go.

hope this little handy guide helped

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krcl:
Hi,

I myself have a HTC Desire with the following specs:

HBOOT: Alpharev CM7r2,BRAVO PVT1 SHIP S-OFF, HBOOT-6.93.1002, MICROP-031d

Rom: MildWild 8

Im very pleased with this setup and with the MW8, every running smooth and fast, good batterylife, all fine.

But now....

A friend of mine also has a Desire with the following specs:

HBOOT: Alpharev ,BRAVO PVT4 SHIP S-OFF, HBOOT-0.93.0001, MICROP-051d

Rom: (MildWild 8)

Because my friend had troubles with a previous HTC Sense-rom, i convinced her to try out thhe MW8.

So i tried to setup her Desire just like mine...CM7r2 hboot and MW8 done......NOOOOOOTTTTT :confused:

I tried to upgrade her hboot, by simply downloading the CM7r2 img zipfile from the Alpharev site, renaming it andcopying it to her SD root and then booting in bootloader...hoping it would ask me to upgrade the bootloader (just like it did with mine).....but that wont work...it gives some error, but it goes to fast to read.

After some other stuff, and searching the internet and especially this XDA forum...i didnt get any wiser and i didnt get any further with upgrading her hboot.

So i decided to just flash the MW8 rom (clean install)....and ....it worked! :victory:

But after a day, i noticed some small problems..battery wont fill up to 100%...(did a Battery wipe in bootloader)...battery drains rather fast...

...maybe the bootloader is the problem?

SO....THE QUESTION!

How can i reflash this Desire so it has the same specs as mine? I got no problems with mine, so setting this one up the same as mine...must be the solution.

...a short list of steps will do fine thx (i hope :p)
[HTC Desire S] axelmasok:
Hi everyone/anyone,

I can't post in the developer sections so I'd like to comment here then.

Have used IColdS on my Desire S for about 6 months as a work phone with heavy email and talk usage. The biggest pain was email not showing the email body and then not responding - alot. Every now and again other apps stop responding.

Anyway, I came back here and tried Jellytime as a random pick. Worked great after a week of use. Even USB tethering and Wifi hotspot works. Apart from the 5mp camera photo issue and Bluetooth not working at least email and general stability is good. The 2 issues are known and being worked on. Great upgrade I think and extended the life of the old girl a little longer.

[HTC Desire S] zertyx:
How is battery life on this ROM? I am currently on Pacman 19.3, but have issues with 3G battery draining. So I only use 2G of wifi.

Otherwise, I like the Pacman ROM a lot. Now and then a spontaneous reboot when the phone is idle, but until now, it hasn't disturbed me.
[HTC Desire S] axelmasok:
I must say I haven't run on battery alone for a whole day yet. At my work desk it's always docked and charging. This weekend I'll be running off the battery so will report back how it goes.

Axel
[HTC Desire S] axelmasok:
Phone was about 70 odd % Friday night. It was 2% Monday morning after only 2-3 phone calls over the weekend with no charging. My un-scientific conclusion would be it's battery life is worse than IceColdSandwich. Bothers me none. I prefer the stability (so far).
[HTC Desire S] zertyx:
And is this with 3G activated or do you use WiFi all weekend? At home my battery lasts long, but when I leave and put 3G on, it's terrible. 2G is ok.

Upgrade

Some of the custom rom builds like the one build by @blindndumb (jelly time 4.2.1) has a new release every third day. Is it possible to upgrade to latest release over the air if u have previous release on the device?:confused:

I'm not sure. I would probably update from recovery myself.

battery

The battery life in JellyTime is great.
[HTC Desire S] axelmasok:
Yes I see that there is a new version as of a few days ago. I'll update to it this weekend and hopefully enjoy Bluetooth and better battery life. As it stands with JellyTime R.4.0 the battery lasts me 7:30am to about 7pm before the battery goes into red < 20%. Can't complain but it used to be better.

Ah also, some users reporting their phone locks up requiring the battery to be removed. This has happened to me about 4 times. I'm pretty sure every time it happened when I rebooted or powered off/on the Desire S. I'm not keen on removing the battery but waiting for 10min or so it wouldn't reboot itself. Holding down all the buttons didn't work either. I might try connecting via adb next time it happens.
[HTC Desire S] its_Khal:
I just changed to Jellytime from Icecold sandwich. I'm having a problem with AOSP roms. Taking screenshot in some screen seems impossible unlike sense roms where u just need to push POWER +HOME to take screenshots. on AOSP roms, i cant take screenshots of a zoomed pic,zoomed webpage etc. anyone knws any app that can assign keys to take screenshots?
[HTC Desire S] axelmasok:
I just tried it then with JellyTime and it works here bud.

Held down volume button and then held down power button until the screen shot captured. Worked fine. ;)

I have also had the one earphone side only issue. Only when I have answered the call and then plug the earphones in. I work around that by selecting loudspeaker on then off. Then I can hear audio in both earbuds.

Worked great!!!! Thanks buddy!

Jellybean ASOP Feedback

as other users i don't have the rights to write on the dev threat to report issues and experiences, then lest do it here.

Upgraded from Saga to ASOP jellybean a week ago, the process pretty strain forward and no issues.

Bugs I've found so far:

- The battery drains very quick (less than 24h on normal use), despite of the settings on not altered from default ones.

- The wifi and phone signal meter it's showing very low values, but no issues or loss of signal at all, seems more like a signal meter calibration.

- The proximity sensor when on call in progress is not working, i mean, display doesn't turn off and the ear can mess up with commands on the phone screen.

-Time to time background apps (google now, google +, swift keys) crashing and restarting, no loss of data noticed.

-Some random problems when shooting videos.

In general the ROM is very responsive, a big improvement from ICS, and can be used for a daily basis, still need to be improved but stable enough to adopt it.
[HTC Desire S] Hemmodeli:
JellyTime feedback too

Hi,

I can't write to dev section, so here's my problems with JellyTime. I can't adjust screen lights, buttons change but there is no diffrence. I have MDDI panel, so it might be related to it. Thanks again to pointing it out. Battery drains a little bit faster than I expected, but it's generally really good and stable ROM.

ROM: JellyTime R6.1 - Saga Edition
[HTC Desire S] axelmasok:
I did a complete wipe/format of everything before install of 6.1.

- Battery drain seems normal to me coming from ICS

- Wifi and Network levels look and behave normally for me

- The proximity weirdness was apparent to me and solved after installing the Sweep2Wake app and disabling.

- I get no crashing of any apps. None since moving to Jellytime 4.x and now 6.1. I don't have any games. Just news/weather/email/web apps.

- I must admit I don't film videos. The camera and video control is so slow and clumsy I don't bother.

Sounds like your issues all relate to something local with your phone IMO.
[HTC Desire S] axelmasok:
I'm not sure what you mean. The backlight/LCD brightness? Works fine for everyone else. If you have the Sony LCD then your in another boat altogether and yes I'm pretty sure changing brightness doesn't work which will make your battery life interesting. eBay out your phone and buy find another one there if your a fan of the Desire. Otherwise upgrade to another model.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Apfelschale:
So, I noticed that apparently I was running low on space on my 16GB model and was wondering what the reason for that might be since I haven't put that many files on my phone.

Found out that my Nexus writes every file i put on it twice, one in /storage/emulated/0 and one in /storage/emulated/legacy.

After a little google searchI found out that this seems to be caused by the multiple user feature of 4.2 and apparently the old clockworkmod recovery that I was running.

Question is: how do I get it back to write in only one directory (I suppose /0 is supposed to be the main one?)

Running latest TWRP now, btw...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ohyeahar:
I believe those 2 paths that you mentioned point to a single physical location. I don't remember which one but one of them is just a virtual path. So your files are not written twice.

To find out what's using up your space, use an app like DiskUsage. More often than not, it's files in your Download folder, your Nandroid backups, and/or other recovery flashable zips.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Apfelschale:
