I tried no dice. I think its because I use redglass.apk to give my phone a red theme. I seen your post about your theme ill do a fresh 1.7.1 full with your theme.:D can't wait.

Is there a way to make sense have 6x6 screens and 7 dock icons? Those are the only two things that make me use apex launcher over sense.

I looked through the first link and it does not mod the apk's like vrtheme for example, it actually replaces them, so it definitely will not work...it probably wouldn't boot, but even if it did, you would have lots of issues/fc's which would make the system unusable. If you are gonna try anyways, make sure you make a nandroid first, cause you will need it.

The second link is just the thread for aroma installer.

My battery seems to be draining kinda fast. Anyone know what this "suspend backoff" is?
[HTC One S] mkinney88:
The widget/app I was using was "Battery Monitor Widget". It was definitely keeping my phone from going into a deep sleep.

If you believe wifi has something to do with it make sure you uncheck "best wifi performance" or whatever it is called under advanced wifi settings as that has caused wake locks on previous htc devices including the og evo.

edit: We have a winner! This is definitely what was causing the problem. I deselected this option and the suspend_backoff item stopped growing. I left it deselected for a couple of hours just to make sure. As soon as I re-enabled it, the suspend_backoff quantity started climbing again.

when you test again tonight also de-select Best WiFi Performance it seems to keep the phone from going to deep sleep. i think that has to do with the kernel. i am going to look into that tonight.
[HTC One S] porkupan:
Has anyone been able to successfully tether over WiFi?

It seems that when I enable the native WiFi hotspot, the iPad successfully connects to the phone, but the tethering doesn't occur. Normally what's supposed to happen is that you get redirected to some T-Mobile upsell page that offers you to buy the service, but in my case I just cannot get any connection to the internet at all.

Tried adding the Special APN, but when I select the new APN, the phone automatically reverts to the default APN (T-Mobile Data).

The Wireless tether for root users does work, and you can go online with it, but the speed as shown by my iPad speedtest is around 0.6-0.8 Mbps. Slower that most DSL. The phone is showing 8-12 Mbps transfer speeds on 4G. I tried setting it up as "Generic ICS/JB", it doesn't make any difference except you can use WPA2 encryption.
[HTC One S] cat2115:
I know u'll busy but just wondering if you ge a chance to look into Mail.apk Exchange security disable? Thx in advance
[HTC One S] mkinney88:
T-Mobile patched the APN work around. and I just was using my tethering the native app. works fine.
[HTC One S] big fancy:
Never had best WiFi checked. Checked it and unchecked it. Been on powersave mode almost all morning. Already down to 82%. WiFi off, GPS off. Only been off the charger for just over 2 hours. Phone mostly just in my pocket. 1.7, very low auto brightness mod.
[HTC One S] big fancy:
Sorry first pic was yesterday's...
[HTC One S] porkupan:
Well, the native tethering doesn't seem to work for me any more (since the JB upgrade, I guess). I have an unlimited data plan (grandfathered from G1), wouldn't have thought T-Mobile should do anything special to limit my mobile data usage...

Wouldn't have been the issue if only the Wireless tether for root users app was working well...

TWRP 2.5.0.0 question

Is it OK to use TWRP 2.5.0.0 instead of TWRP 2.3.3 like the original post says?
[HTC One S] Rawryummy:
Using TWRP 2.5.0.0 means you'll have to flash on your own risk. TWRP 2.3.3 is specified because 2.5.0.0 has been giving problems for users in terms of ROM flashing purposes.

cause here is my battery stats. i did a full charge to 100% exact. I haven't plugged it in and i was listening to music for at least 1 hour from google play streaming. I also have been on the Internet and made several phone calls and multiple text messages. You can see where i was streaming music in the history with the larger drop but over all 7 hours 39 minutes and still at 78% common what am i doing that you aren't. lets figure this out.

Good for you. But my phone sits in my pocket or tool bag while I work with hardly any use with or without powersaver on (makes no difference), with WiFi and GPS off, recieving maybe 2 emails and at most 10 texts. I'm an electrician. I'm not sitting at a desk using my phone all day. And I lose more than half my battery in 4 hours. I think its great that mkinney offered to help chase down the culprit.
[HTC One S] Galadriel7966:
You have to fix it yourself either a personal phone issue or a ghost in your software...

This is rabbit hole single 1 or 2 user crap.. the majority of users have none of these issues.. sorry but just a waste of time for the dev..

---------- Post added at 12:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:44 AM ----------

You have been having issues with your phone since day one.. do some research.. re base your phone and start over

Flashing roms is risky.. but if 90% of users are not having the same exact issue as you.. then it is you.. not the Rom..

You are a electrician.. try fixing a single random power outage over text when nobody else is having the same issue..
[HTC One S] rc420head:
No need to be condescending dude.

I own a remodeling company I just started. I do all work my self. Electric, framing, drywall, plumbing you name it I do it. I also make custom cabinets at my shop. I get zero signal in the shop so that's why wifi calling is a godsend for me. I use my phone all day to listen to music, emails, texts so on and so on. I don't complain about battery life. I post info op ask for. With all my use I get better battery than your claiming to get and your the only one claiming to not use your phone and getting horrible battery life, so this tells me you have an app installed draining your battery. So maybe try doing a fresh install and don't install any apps and try it for a day and see what kind of battery life you get. Then add apps one at a time until you get battery drain then you'll know what app it is.

sorry bud wasnt trying to be condescending. just meant that i dont use it as much as others and i dont have any wifi at the job im on so the wifi calling draining the battery that others have claimed, is not the battery drain ive been having. gonna do a wipe and flash 1.7.1 and see what happens.

Nw stands for no wipe (not recommended) other will do a full wipe before install I still would wipe all (I wipe sd too after I transfer sd to my computer) 3 times then install. If you get an error flashing rom then reboot back into recovery and flash

Just wanted to give an update. My battery life has been good. I never turn off wifi calling and my phone gets moderate to heavy use. I am still on 1.7. It lasts all day unless I have been watching video or tethering.

I also wanted to add that xbmc works great with this Rom. On ICS roms the video was always choppy unless it could use an external player like mx player. On this Rom I can play any video, even hd, using the internal player. This Rom is great. Thanks for all of your hard work.
[HTC One S] mkinney88:
I suggest anyone that is having a battery life problem do a full wipe, caches factory reset, and system, then flash the v1.7.1 FULL and don't install any apps yet and run the phone for the day and see what happens then.

thanks all to you that responded your feedback to greatly appreciated.

[HTC One S] porkupan:
I don't see how such attitude can be constructive. No one is blaming the author of the ROM, the people are trying to figure out what can be done to make this very good ROM even better than it is. I think it's absolutely clear that mkinney88's ROM is not in any way worse than the stock T-Mobile ROM, and in many respects better than the stock ROM. However, just like pretty much any stock or stock-based JB ROM, this ROM is not totally without problems.

For me the battery life is OK. Seems to be just as good as any of the ICS ROMs I tried previously. However, my iPad withstands several days of rather heavy WiFi use, including playing games and watching hours-long movies, all on a single charge. OK, the iPad's battery is physically big. But its screen is much bigger too, and its CPU is much faster (therefore more power-hungry). And my old Nokia non-smartphone used to run several weeks on a single charge. Android generally seems to be very inefficient where the battery usage is concerned. Just an observation, nothing to do with this particular ROM.

What makes this ROM less functional for me than the previously used ICS ROM, is the fact that upgrading to it seems to result in the loss of WiFi tether. I know that I could get a tethering plan, but my first two smartphones (G1 and G2) used to support tethering out of the box for free courtesy of T-Mobile, so it doesn't seem fair to me that a purchase of a more expensive HTC One S should result in an extra monthly charge too. There seems to be something that limits the "Wireless tether for root users" throughput to about 0.6-0.8 Mbps. It seems to be a general issue with many JB ROMs. But it is not the case with all ROMs. CM do not appear to have this problem (and they have native WiFi tethering). I think it's worthy of at least some discussion and research.
[HTC One S] ptweasel:
So, I loved my One S, but finally sold it to a friend who shattered his GS2 the other day. I was using Viper on the One S, but wanted to give him stock rooted so I flashed this ROM last night. Everything seemed fine to me.

Now that he has it (in another city), he said that it would either reboot or give the good old "Error" when turning turning on Wifi. I promise that I searched the thread before asking :)

So, is there any sort of wifi partitions zip that I should have him flash?
[HTC One S] mkinney88:
Flash the firmware.zip in the OP as stated
[HTC One S] mkinney88:
My WiFi tether works fine and I get more than 0.8 mbs it depends on your signal and what your phone actually is getting. Also WiFi tether just shares the phones internet so it will be slower it doesn't redirect internet just shares it. That's why your phone will still have internet connection while on WiFi tether. Also a iPad has a huge battery and also you would need to understand the software behind android and IOS apple o/s is not even close to android. Android is basically a full linux distro. So there is going to be some battery consumption differences. Android = Full o/s apple = slimmed down restricted o/s with limited useability.

Also everyone lets keep the thread clean and friendly.
[HTC One S] mkinney88:
I have been testing multiple brightness settings, anyone have input on the values in my two mods I got I'm going to make another one. Also working on my own kernel and theme still lol sorry just been busy.
[HTC One S] ptweasel:
Thanks for the reply. I wasn't sure if I was supposed to do anything with that section of the OP since it talked about relocking the bootloader. Are you saying that I should be able to just have him fastboot flash that firmware.zip and that's it?

Trust me, if that's all it takes, I'd be happy. If not, I can just have him reflash viper. And, please don't take that as a slight against the ROM. I will have to walk someone through setting up adb/fastboot who has never owned an HTC phone.

Yeah, my fault for throwing a new ROM on my phone before selling it to someone, but too late now lol

---------- Post added at 08:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:45 PM ----------

Just IME, but I've never had any sort of throttling with tethering with my One S. The only so-called "detection" I've ever seen from T-Mo was checking for user-agent. As long as I spoof my user-agent through Chrome, i get the same speeds as I would with the phone itself.
[HTC One S] djq:
any idea what would be causing the IPService to be so high?
[HTC One S] mkinney88:
Your WiFi is on, ipservice is part of that. Did you change your WiFi power settings?

[HTC One S] mkinney88:
He can relock the bootloader and flash the firmware.zip through fastboot just follow the instructions in the OP and youll be fine or you can run the HTC Ruu if he wasn't
[HTC One S] porkupan:
I think it's a great idea, man! Unless you've got something constructive to add, what's the point of scolding the "complainers"? If the author is annoyed with the noobs asking noobish questions, let him say so. :good:

As I mentioned yesterday, the stock WiFi tether doesn't work for me - I guess, because of unlimited data (???). So, the next best thing is the "WiFi tether for root users", but that appears to have some serious issues on Jelly Bean. The "speed limit" is one of those issues. My phone is connecting at 10-12 Mbps, while the tether is giving me less than 1 Mbps. But that's not too bad, enough to watch some YouTube in relatively decent resolution. However, once the phone goes to sleep, the tether stops working (the data is no longer flowing). That's pretty bad, as it seems that the only way to keep it running is to enable the wake-lock. So, the phone battery is draining even faster. I know those are not your ROM's problems, they appear to be common problems of the tethering app not working correctly on JB.

I am sure the stock tether works without any issues, but that requires one to have tethering enabled by T-Mo. Maybe a user-agent change trick would work, but it doesn't seem to be available on iPad. :)

As far as the battery life is concerned - no complaint from me. I am pretty sure even CM doesn't give you a better battery life than your ROM.

[HTC One S] Fitchman:
The ROM cooker should always make the tehtering work for free-- it's just a matter of hacking into the tethering options and making sure it doesn't use the proprietary T-Mobile tethering APN when it's on. I thought I read in this thread, however, that it's fixed. Either way, since you have root, you can get an app to do said free tethering. Even if you get a text message that you're supposed to get a tethering plan, it still works.
[HTC One S] mkinney88:
That's great an all but I don't plan on offering things like unlocked apn that got blocked by T-Mobile awhile ago. I am offering the most stock o/s possible but best experience. If you want to try to fool the system go ahead I'm not stopping you but I tryed and got caught so be my guest.
