Wifi Calling

Ok, I think I might be really really close to having wifi calling working!

When I get off work and get home I'm going to upload a very very very beta test.

If you don't know what you are doing with a beta test build, please don't download it!

There will be no extra goodies or anything in it. just enough for wifi calling testing.

It will be for those who can troubleshoot it and see if they can figure it out.

there won't be any support for it so if you flash it and it's all broken restore your backup. Yes, make a backup first!

If you want a link to it PM me!

I dont have wifi at work, so I can't even test it fully yet.

I don't get a sim error, and it's just hanging on finding a wifi connection (cause theres no wifi here)

If this works, I'll start on the HTC sense apps that aren't working correctly.

Ironically, my wife is out of town and she has very little cell signal. she sent me a text message to turn on my wifi calling so we could talk. LOL

(if you don't get it I'll explain it to you) :)
[HTC Amaze 4G] crazykas:
dunno about Twitter issue.Yes RAM usage show around 700mb to 800mb.But it doesn't effecy.I mean,never had a single lag!Actually battery life is really good.Mine last minimum 10hours (im a moderate & heavy user).
[HTC Amaze 4G] blast0id:
actually, just get into recover and mount usb storage, you should be able to pull everything from internal and external, no matter the state of the rom...

I actually meant "shouldn't" be too expensive... but I guess that is relative, not absolute... hopefully for you $40 isn't the end of the world... but before you try that, try flashing the latest OTA, then after doing that, and booting into it completely (hopefully you can) then do full wipe from there and start with venom again...
[HTC Amaze 4G] 05TurboS2K:
I'll try to get you that if I can get that far.

Redmond, Wa

I'm on your current stuff just installed with a few days ago.

S-on.

I wiped everything but SD yes.

Sounds like it to me too.

I figured you meant NOT expensive. Just a bummer I'm that far screwed. $40 isn't the end of the world or anything.

So, tried to do what you said, makes sense. However I can't seem to mount it "error mounting SD card". I guess that makes it clear there's a partition problem or something.

I already tried to flash to the latest OTA, it wouldn't take, fails. Might be doing the $40 dollar option I guess.

EDIT**Windows is asking me to Format disk drive I: before I can use it........ I guess it's toasted. Also "error mounting internal SD" within device.

EDIT** Decided screw the info, see if I can get SOMETHING to run on my phone again so I at least don't need a new phone. Formatted all partitions, hangs... worried to restart it and have it never work again. Haha, fun times!
[HTC Amaze 4G] SpiritFyre:
My setup :)

☆★☆better watch out... Better not cry, gunna sick one of our muffins on ya, no lie☆★☆
[HTC Amaze 4G] 05TurboS2K:
So, not being able to mount the internal SD, how can I get my phone working again. I suppose that's the big question. I can browse my external SD from within 4ext for example under "md5 checksum" I can see files and folders.

Latest situation:

Formatted EVERYTHING including SD. I really had no other choice from what I saw, since nothing would mount and I couldn't use anything except bootloader/4ext. Still that's the only function my phone has at this point. I can now mount internal SD at least though it's blank.

Going to mount external SD and put the ROM on there along with Faux etc. Hopefully I can install from there.

ALSO, I've got my "2013-04-10.09.59.08_IML74K" file on my desktop computer, that was my nandroid file was it? Couldn't that save me here?

Update

, after a fresh ROM install ....still hangs on the "Amazing" screen with an occasional vibration felt every minute or so which is odd, it's as though it NEARLY makes it to the desktop screen. None the less, still f#cked. :(

1. So what about that "2013-04-10.09.59.08_IML74K" folder. Can I put that in a proper place to restore to it?

2. I did a "partition check" and it mentioned it's not perfectly aligned, should I repartition at this point? If so, what values as it'll demand I manually input the partition sizes.

If this phone is bricked I'm going to head to Tmo and see what my insurance does or any kind of help, $150 to use insurance now as of a couple months ago?! Lame. MAYBE it's time for a Nexus 4, but made by LG and with no external SD card? Eeeek. $300 is a nice price though.

ALSO, I've got a backup using mybackup pro of my txt messages which are vital, though I've had it not work to restore when changing phones. :( Hope that won't be the case if I phone switch.

What a bummer this all is. Much appreciate everyone's help in all this btw.

-Greg
[HTC Amaze 4G] ravike14:
It's not brick if your s off try a ruu if s on try the specific ruu which came when you bought it ( gb/ics) with your specific carrier a ruu will do a full clean format n fix your partitions :)
[HTC Amaze 4G] 05TurboS2K:
I'm S-on, which is strange, could have sworn I was S-off before.

I tried a stock RUU before putting Viper back on to no avail.

I got a refurbished unit for $5 on the way here Tuesday.

I suppose I should do my best to lock this phone back up so they don't blame it all on being rooted or on Viper etc, the problem with failing to boot occurs no matter what ROM I'm using it seems.
[HTC Amaze 4G] SpiritFyre:
did u ever upgrade ur phone to ics firmware?

[HTC Amaze 4G] chevycowboyusa:
Re: [ROM] Viper Amaze 1.6.3 [ICS |Android 4.0.4 | Sense 4.1]

[QUOTE=_Le0.I believe that it does. There's a setting in the venom tweaks for it. I think.
[HTC Amaze 4G] chevycowboyusa:
Re: [ROM] Viper Amaze 1.6.3 [ICS |Android 4.0.4 | Sense 4.1]

I'll look into it. Shouldn't have removed root.

Edit... I am running the update in mine and I still have root. The update file just changes some apps and libs that I tried to use to increase volume.

Try to re download it or the updated .01 ROM.
[HTC Amaze 4G] chevycowboyusa:
Re: [ROM] Viper Amaze 1.6.3 [ICS |Android 4.0.4 | Sense 4.1]

If you have already been on an ICS rom then no. If you have never had an ICS rom on your phone then yes you need the firmware update.

I'll update the OP with more instructions.
[HTC Amaze 4G] chevycowboyusa:
Re: [ROM] Viper Amaze 1.6.3 [ICS |Android 4.0.4 | Sense 4.1]

Be very careful using the kernels from the venom hub. I have no idea what it will do.

There is an option for slide or sweep to wake, but it I'd greyed out and says only if your kernel has that feature built in.

Faux kernel works. I flashed the 26b but not for swipe 2 wake.

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

I like the lockscreen
[HTC Amaze 4G] chevycowboyusa:
lock screen

I like it too. the ring might be small, but if you fling it , it'll open without problems. I have tried all of the lock screens in the personalize settings and they all work.

Did you notice a change in the volume? I can hear my phone ringing all the way across my house! :o)

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

I flashed regular superuser into it. Works just fine.
[HTC Amaze 4G] 99piotrek:
sorry for that but my problem is different:

i am running :

[ROM][03-18-13][CM10, AOKPJB & PA] Dark Glass ONE 0.3 [BEATS AUDIO][PAC-man][INIT.D]

and everytime when i want to switch to any rom based on ICS iam stuck into never ending boot...

the same i have with VIPER AMAZE...of course before install i always do all wipes etc but nothing helps....

anybody has any idea why?

THANKS for any TIPS
[HTC Amaze 4G] chevycowboyusa:
Re: [ROM] Viper Amaze 1.6.3 [ICS |Android 4.0.4 | Sense 4.1]

Are you s-off? If not you need to activate smart flash in 4ext.

Grab the super wipe zip, it's posted everywhere.

Get the ICS ruu

And the viper ROM

Copy to your internal sdcard.

Reboot recovery.

Flash super wipe

Flash ICS ruu

Boot up

Reboot to recovery

Flash super wipe again

Flash viper amaze

Reboot.

First time flashing viper takes between 5 to 10 minutes to load because it's zip aligning and getting settings ready.
[HTC Amaze 4G] xFalse Profit:
2 issues I found, 1 minor and 1 not so minor but both are related.

stock task manager seems to not be reporting properly between task manager itself, and the tab in quick settings. the difference is approximately 200MB difference, showing the lower number in quick settings.

also. the other issue is that the memory taken up is extremely high. its showing 641MB/1.0GB used within task manager, while quick settings shows 457MB used. I have no apps running and I have 1 page with 2 widgets and 4 apps on it. there is no reason that I can see for it being so high, especially since I flashed from nightmare sense which averaged around 350-400MB used with everything closed.

this rom is suppsed to be optimized correct?

please look into this, thanks.

will still be my daily.

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

I think sense has always been like that man. I remember saying the same thing about stock tmo Rom.
[HTC Amaze 4G] xFalse Profit:
didn't do that to me when I was stock or on nightmare sense 4

to me it seems as though task manager itself isn't reporting properly while the quick settings tab is. theres no way my memory usage is 600+ with nothing running.

And that's with only the xda app open

[HTC Amaze 4G] Brooklyn8807:
Re: [ROM] Viper Amaze 1.6.3 [ICS |Android 4.0.4 | Sense 4.1]

Well damn..I should probably do the same. Lol

Hey Chevy can I dirty flash the update and still fix the headphone issue. Or should I clean install. I know it's such a noob thing to ask lol.. I've just cleaned installed so much these past 3 days I'm getting tired of fixing **** lol
[HTC Amaze 4G] d3vilskid:
Hey Chevy are you getting the WiFi calling libs and stuff from the amaze ota or from t mobile one s?
[HTC Amaze 4G] Mantara:
Had to jump to Speedrom 8.0. Sadly the lack of BT was interfering with work. This ROM is fantastic, Beautiful and so easily customizable with all the Team Viper addons I miss it already. I am holding onto the nand in my archives so on the weekends I can restore and enjoy its prettyness :)
[HTC Amaze 4G] 05TurboS2K:
I upgraded to the OTA ICS that was last released, does that answer the question properly? It would be included yes?
[HTC Amaze 4G] ravike14:
Well with help of aio kit you can easily relock it and I guess if you run a ruu all your problems will be solved your partitions are corrupted somehow like Chevy said a clean install will make things good hopefully :)
[HTC Amaze 4G] chevycowboyusa:
Amaze ota. The only Wi-Fi calling apk I could get to work is from the glacier ics Wi-Fi calling fix.

The problem now is that kineto won't shut off and drains the battery like I've never seen before!

Questions For Help thru PM

Please ask questions in the thread and not thru PM's

As far as crashes, I've never had a random reboot with this ROM. I believe others have, but mostly hardware related.

It helps out others that have the same issue when questions are asked here. Some people who have had this issue and have resolved it can answer better than I can.

And for everyone looking for help please list the important:

S-on/S-off

Did you flash the ICS Firmware update?

What version of the rom are you running? latest is 1.6.5

Did you modify it in any way? I.e. task killer apps and such.

It helps us help you better!

Viper 2.0

Seeing that we are at a slight block, I'm playing with a rebase of viper (from the Villec2).

It boots and has data and cell service. Bluetooth doesnt work.

I'll test wifi calling when I get home.

I had this issue after updating to the new radio. It happened on multiple roms. I finally just went thru the update process again, and have had not reboots or freezes since.
[HTC Amaze 4G] 05TurboS2K:
Thanks to both of you. I'm going to give this a shot as a final hoorah. Due to the random reboots and such I'm using my insurance to swap this for a new Amaze for $5.

However, I need it looking stock to send it in of course so trying what you guys are saying might solve both issues. :)

I've got AIO already, seems the drivers aren't working but I'll work on that today.
[HTC Amaze 4G] blast0id:
or you could purposely brick it to no return =)
[HTC Amaze 4G] hatlesssandman:
You know I read somewhere in the amaze forums regarding reboot issues that sometimes the connectors on the battery lose contact with the phone and cause reboots regardless of what ROM you are on (which seems to be your issue from what I have read thus far) and the solution was to stick a piece of paper so the battery would be more flush against the connectors (kind of like a wedge) but if you do a search regarding the random reboot issue you may come across it and pin point what people did exactly to get around it. since I don't have this issue I can't tell you exactly but I do remember reading about it somewhere sorry for such a vague answer but it is definitely a simple hardware fix. good luck!
[HTC Amaze 4G] chevycowboyusa:
Thanks, but the project got scrapped.
[HTC Amaze 4G] chevycowboyusa:
Try using Superwipe. Or use wipe all partitions except sdcard in 4ext recovery.

Others have had this issue and have posted suggestions on how to fix. Also when you restore data it can cause issues.

Hi

First I want to say that the rom is great but still have a huge battery drain

I've got anker 1900mah battery and it runs out after 6 hours .

And one more thing about its why the power save mode disconect the phone signal while it is active?
[HTC Amaze 4G] avenged_sevenfold27:
Be thankful for that 6 hrs I'm lucky if I get 3 hrs and that's with everything disabled but mobile data
[HTC Amaze 4G] ccbm3:
I have the same battery. Run through some cycles and let it calibrate. Also make sure you wiped completely during install. I undervolt about 100mv which is a big help since I use it pretty heavily. My last run on it was 12 hours almost 13.
[HTC Amaze 4G] avenged_sevenfold27:
Wait how do you under volt? It must be the same as underclock lol I'm at 1.2 GHz max and 192 min but still I'm lucky to have 3 hrs of battery
[HTC Amaze 4G] chevycowboyusa:
It's in the venom tweaks under cpu.
[HTC Amaze 4G] chevycowboyusa:
In venom tweaks there is an advanced area and there's a system r/rw setting you can check.

Also try a different super user app.
[HTC Amaze 4G] hatlesssandman:
Umm maybe you should try another ROM because that's just horrendous... how can you even function on a phone that only lasts you 3 hours? My screen on time alone is more than 3 hours...
[HTC Amaze 4G] ravike14:
dude there's a limit you can tweak them dont tweak it without knowing what you're doing which i'm sure you don't know what your doing! :P

[HTC Amaze 4G] Brooklyn8807:
I read somewhere that the capture mode feature is not available to us because we lack the hardware (image chip I believe) to support it.
[HTC Amaze 4G] blast0id:
try switching to a different superuser app, there is a post (in this thread) within the last week which explains how to accomplish that.

sounds like a really bad flash, or your battery is boogered, do you get this kind of battery life on stock rom?

you seem to have no clue what you are doing... that is a SERIOUS undervolt to start with... I highly recommend against any undervolt, but if you insist then start with -5mV and work your way up (1-3days at a time) make sure you are stable at each increment... it also sounds like you need to do a serious amount of reading... going gangbusters on your poor cpu like that is good way to end up in bootloop hell...
[HTC Amaze 4G] chevycowboyusa:
OC/UC OV/UV

I'm using the stock kernel, It's the nightmare one sportsstar put in it.

I'm using the default settings for everything. Mainly because it's easier to troubleshoot problems when I'm on the stock stuff like most people are.

IMHO I think that most people are not wiping off old data good enough.

I'm getting from 12 to 20 hours of light use, and 6 to 12 hours of moderate to heavy use.

As always, the battery life on our Amazes was never that good. So I presume that this is marginally better.

It was a joke a few years ago that someone could go for weeks on a full charge, of course you have to turn it on sometime!!! LOL

Everyone should go thru the Venom tweaks at some time and play with the options in there.

There are settings that really help out, like turn off backlight and the buttons light. That'll save battery for sure.

Governor settings you can set to conservative. OV/UV settings where you can set it to undervolt.

You can fix permissions, which I strongly suggest everyone do asap!

You can manually zip align your apps

for those who might never need it, you can disable logcat. That'll save some resources

there's a ton more. Just get in there and play with it! :)
