[HTC Amaze 4G] KT-82166:
I get this life with 3 hours of on screen time with my tweaked Rom based on the deodex stock Rom posted by sports
[HTC Amaze 4G] merkcity:
I thought that was the whole purpose of the chart? :eek: started with 100% battery the screen was on 46% of the time and voice calls used up 23% of battery plus other apps running like facebook,firefox etc leaving 32% battery after 9+ hours. So looking at that screen was on maybe 4 to 5 hours with 2 to 3 hours of talk time and the rest web browsing, system etc with a little screen off time in between. Moderate to heavy use in short terms.
[HTC Amaze 4G] crazykas:
Battery is so good.Bt when it come to using part,it drain little fast..
[HTC Amaze 4G] KT-82166:
No screen was not on 46% of the time. It took 46% of the battery. It doest matter if you get 10 hours on battery if screen is only on for an hour. That is why people ask for on screen time.
[HTC Amaze 4G] zPacKRat:
This!
[HTC Amaze 4G] merkcity:
I test this while at work my job is very chill in other words I don't do nothing almost. so for the entire 8hrs 40mins I was on the phone with my girl or messing with venom tweaks or browsing the web, posting bull ish on facebook and looking at progress on xda trust me man this phone was on and putting in work. if I had to guess how long it was sleep I would say an hour to an hour and a half at the most that's cause I took a nap at work. And didn't you say you got the same battery life I did with 3hrs of on screen time? O.o soooo whats another hour?

something weird about battery level. I keep data turned off and network to GSM when I have wifi to conserve battery. The battery percentage does not drop off at all. (which is of course untrue. The battery will not be 100% for 5 hours!). I used to turn off and turn on to see the real battery level. Now I figured out that if I just turn data on, and wifi off and switch to GSM/WCDMA .. it reports correct battery. Anyone seen similar problem? Any solution?

Otherwise this ROM is working great .. I do switch back to energy when I am going to need wifi tether though ..

4ext error

I'm sorry, but I have never had that issue.

I would attempt to connect to a computer and fastboot flash image recovery if you can. You need to have the 4ext recovery image on your computer.

There are specific instructions posted on this forum on how to do that.

If you can boot normal then go into 4ext and try to reflash the recovery image that way. This would be the easiest way

to the guy who has boot loop issue. what i did, i just went to recovery 4ext (latest version) and did a wipe. it has a built in wipe functionality (except SD card) and flashed. that's it! it booted fine. though my Amaze is T-Mo version and s-offed. not sure if that affects the installation of the ROM though.

Re: [ROM] Viper Amaze 1.6.3 [ICS |Android 4.0.4 | Sense 4.1]

Thank you so much Chevy for putting your hard work on this ROM.

Just wanna ask something. Are you the only one currently working on this ROM or are there other devs too??

I am currently running the very first release of ViperAMAZE 1.6.3, which you posted in the General Section, without any issue (except the known bugs).

Should I flash this version? I am really confused because all the things which are not working on the initial release are also not working on the one posted here. Both look same and both are v1.6.3.

So, what's the main difference between these two? I didn't find any change log..

Have I just missed something? :confused:

Please don't take anything wrong, I am just curious..

Thanks.

Beamed from my HTC Amaze 4G using xda premium :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] chevycowboyusa:
Viper amaze

I had fixed a few bugs With the initial release.

I'm pretty much the only one working on it.

Kelvin216 is working on the keyboard fix.

Other than the keyboard having the Sense input FC, and the Drop box fc, I've made modifications to the build prop and gps files, and my modified boot animation.

I threw in updated apps, and I included the sense 4.5 message app. along with a few other app/tools

The beats audio wasn't quite right either.

Once the keyboard fix is in place I will clean everything up and incriment the ROM to 1.6.4

It'll probably stay there until the rom gets rebased or bt is fixed.

So, gps, the incorrect device showing up, the build prop tweaks and corrections, boot animation, drop box FC's on setup, the updater-script. and soon the keyboard fix are whats different.

I'm going to pull the sense 5 lockscreen from the next release and make it an optional flashable zip file.

I also aquired a goo.im account so I can put the whole rom there instead of having to flash two files and I'll post links files for more optional things.

Nothing taken wrong... and I like your banner!!!
[HTC Amaze 4G] spiz516:
So I was able to get my Recovery working again after I formatted my internal SD card. Then I was able to flash my other Viper ROM (the old one that got pulled down from the forums).

I still cannot get this to flash. Possibly a bad download?

My steps: Wipe > Enable SmartFlash > Install ROM > Sit at the HTC screen forever. Yes, I am waiting long enough for it to boot.
[HTC Amaze 4G] chevycowboyusa:
bad download

I would try downloading again. What rom are coming from? and when you wipe, if you are using 4ext make sure you choose wipe everything but sdcard

I'm testing a new build right now and if all goes well I will have it up by 8 pm PST.

I've flashed my phone like 30 times already... Phew..

I'll wait for the version 1.6.4 then. :)

For the meantime I am staying with the previous version. And thanks for liking the banner :D

Flash through recovery.

I'm going to release ViperAmaze 1.6.4 tonight.

It should have all of the fixes rolled up into one rom.

Since I have a goo.im account I'm going to post the whole thing in one file. Other updates will be small flashable zips.

The sense 4.5 msg app will be your option and the 5.0 lockscreen too.

And with sports help with the aroma installer it should be nice and neat, but a big file :)

Hi,

Atlast I've S-OFF and Change the SuperCID and Flash the Stock ROM after that Use the Viper Amaze ROM,

Its an really Amazing ROM ever I seen, but only one disadvantage is that the phone will automatically restarts when use the multiple applications and GPRS. For example use the Audio player and Google play store then it automatically stop and mobile restarted.

So Is any solution for this problem.?

Not a bad phone. I havent heard anything bad about it.

Did you try any adb stuff to try to get it back up and running? Also, not to insult you, but did yoiu check to make sure your battery is making contact?

You could also try maybe finding another charged battery, or charge your battery on a charger.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Sirocco.ukr.lviv:

Coming back from Jelly Bean

I'm considering coming back from CM 10.1 to Viper because of the sound issues I'm having that have been plaguing me ever since I have been on CM 10.1. I seem to be the only one having the issue so I want to see if it is a hardware issue that just happened to crop up when I switched to Jelly Bean from SpeedROM 8 or if it has to do with the ROM itself. I never had the problem (sound switching to speakerphone during phone calls) before.

My question is, what kind of issues are there (if any) going back from Jelly Bean to ICS?

Also, because this ROM is Sense-based, does it have the original camera app from HTC that shipped with the phone? It is the best of any I have seen by far.

Thanks for any info.

Hi ,

I don't have the log for it..but it happen to 3 Amaze mobiles, we guys bought same model for 3 people and flush the same ROM for all 3,now facing same issue for all 3.

and one more thing battery life is not that much good, it hardly coming 6 to 7 hrs of GPRS usage and 12 to 14 hrs for normal usage.

please check and confirm.

Thanks in advance,
[HTC Amaze 4G] chevycowboyusa:
Battery life

Battery life on the Amaze with a stock battery has always been under par.

What you're reporting for battery life is actually considerd good.

The battery life for mild use is about 12 to 20 hours.

Heavy use diminishes the life greately, no matter what rom you use. I've played some games that killed my battery in less than three hours.

Just the nature of the beast...

The amaze is a battery hog and the battery was undersized.

Most users will tell you to spend about $16 to $26 dollars and get an aftermarket battery like an Ankor battery.

I haven't been able to reproduce anything to make it reboot. Did you flash the RUU update to go from a GB rom to ICS?
