Great update, I'm on the 08-13 release. and wow!
[HTC Desire S] Kitke:
Yeah! Battery life looks better to me either. Nice update :)
[HTC Desire S] Android-UK:
That looks great, btw don't you mean 08/08 update? cm-10.1-20130808-UNOFFICIAL-saga.zip
[HTC Desire S] Supermatt01:
yes, 08/ 08/ 13; I just used the month and year, but yes that's what I was talking about :D That was also my anniversary :D

Can I somehow sync my contact pics in high quality? (like from Facebook for HTC) or install Facebook for HTC on this ROM?
[HTC Desire S] 505dv:
Download UberSync from the market
[HTC Desire S] BooZon:
and when I delete the app pictures will stay?
[HTC Desire S] Android-UK:
I think so, but never had a reason to delete it. You can set to to sync whenever you like. I have mine once every 2 weeks, never even notice it doing anything.
[HTC Desire S] BooZon:
How can I set that Quick settings is shown by default when I pull down notification bar?

[HTC Desire S] teadrinker:
By default, if you pull down the notification bar on the right of the screen, it will show quick settings. You can change it to the left in settings if you want.
[HTC Desire S] ltodorov:
You can also swipe the notification bar with two fingers to show the quick settings ;)

Check a few pages back, searching is your friend :P We may get it, but there a massive amount of changes between 10.1 and 10.2 so its not just a simple flash upgrade.

Google navigation crashes maps

Hi Guys,

First of all - GREAT ROM. Always been using it...;)

Recently I've updated to latest version, done full wipe and so...

Also loaded GAPPS.

After this update I've got weird Google Maps bug. When I first time turn Navigation on (Google Maps) map starts moves quickly so it's not possible to use app. Also when pop-up windows occur during maps - same case. :(

Is anyone has the same?

Thanks in advance.
[HTC Desire S] juancp:
Same problem occurs with Chrome, graphics corruption when the display changes
[HTC Desire S] milkynex:
yeah :(

I mean maybe downgrade to the older version could help. it's quite sadly...
[HTC Desire S] mizerok:
Seems to be flinny's builds are smoother, what about you guys?
[HTC Desire S] rain987:
Please don't start comparing roms. Everyone has a different opinion and it varies with their usage behavior.

Anyway, camera working with latest release.
[HTC Desire S] mizerok:
Why not? OP will know the difference and it will help him to make his rom better
[HTC Desire S] jmcclue:
how the hell is telling 1 dev his rom aint as smooth as another devs rom actually going to help him? do u actually know why it aint as smooth? No.. didnt think so. bnd knows what hes doing, all his roms r great and this is an early release so i bet in a few more updates it will be much smoother, faster and pretty much bug free. and yes like said before, its rude to compare roms, no matter what device, every dev will say the same.
[HTC Desire S] docertabum:
relax ffs.... he was just telling his experience with this rom, and ask how it is working for others....
[HTC Desire S] jmcclue:
erm... no. he was comparing the 2. and also, what build is flinny on? bout 22 i think, so yh, u couldnt compare the 2 even if u wanted too.
[HTC Desire S] kyeeliu:
Waiting MIDI kernel.

My phone does not boot:(
[HTC Desire S] MatthewJoe:

Everything working well, but I don't have any notification sound (Gmail, facebook, sms)... so strange...

build 20130603, full wipe done coming from nightlies 20130601.

EDIT: problem solved with a reboot. Sorry! :)
[HTC Desire S] .bucch:
Default notification sound wasn't selected for me. Just add your favorite by default or one different for every app like me.

BTW, first release seems good to me. All features working, smooth, good battery life. Nice work bnd ;)
[HTC Desire S] blindndumb:

I also didn't have notification sound, but there was none set by default....strange

Everything is working as mentioned, just camera lags sometimes if phone rotated.

Unfortunately google search has stop. i got this msg everytime i try the voice activation in camera and long press search.

Can't get a logcat atm, device offline. Once fix will upload a logcat.

edit:dirty install(wipe dalvik and cache) and clean install, both gave the same error.
[HTC Desire S] qubbey:
Have you updated "google search" via play store?
[HTC Desire S] rain987:
that solve it.

i never really use google apps, never thought to update any of it. thanks.
[HTC Desire S] bryangb:
I've flashed the latest version, cm-10.1-20130604-UNOFFICIAL-saga.zip, and wiped cache & dalvik, but the phone's now stuck on the boot animation.

It went through the whole "Android is upgrading" sequence OK, then popped up the PIN pad, but before I could enter my SIM PIN it rebooted itself and now it's stuck.

I can see the boot animation flicker every so often, so I think it is looping. Any ideas please?
[HTC Desire S] jmcclue:
did u full wipe? (not just cache & dalvik)

r ya s-on unlocked bootloader?

r ya s-off?
[HTC Desire S] bryangb:
Full s-off unlocked.

Doesn't the installer do a system & data wipe? They usually do, so I assumed it would. Lemme check again... Oh look, no it doesn't.

Right, factory wipe, wipe caches too, reinstall zip, reboot.... Hey, it's working. :o

<slaps self on head> Cheers m'dear!
[HTC Desire S] Android-UK:
Have you flashed this Kernal?

Kernal: AndromadusMod 27/07

Flash the experimental version, let us know if that works.
[HTC Desire S] BooZon:
In PAC i can set by default quick setting, not to swipe from left/right side ;/ but thanks

[HTC Desire S] milkynex:
Thanks, mate, I'll try today. Will write back.
[HTC Desire S] petru.tomsa:
I use that kernel without no problem. Experimental is installed.
[HTC Desire S] juancp:
I flashed the experimental and it seems to work quite a bit better! There is some corruption still in Maps, but Chrome has no more corruption issues.

Thanks!
[HTC Desire S] petru.tomsa:
What corruption do you have in maps?
[HTC Desire S] VnnAmed:
CM10.2 nightlies are out! Most of the bugs ironed out hopefully.
[HTC Desire S] nagorimayank:
Woaah! That's great!! Hopefully BnD could release a nightly for our devices soon!!! :fingers-crossed:
[HTC Desire S] VnnAmed:
Yep. 4.3 features performance improvements and God knows we need those.
[HTC Desire S] Android-UK:
Lets see what bnd says, at the moment only HTC One been official supported by CM for CM10.3 :(
[HTC Desire S] NVardan:
Some report also better battery life and not working xposed framework.
[HTC Desire S] VnnAmed:
You were counting on official for DS? :P now seriously it's because they focus on newest devices. It will get better.

---------- Post added at 10:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:57 PM ----------

Well in our case better working battery is a new one (at least mine is like 2 years old [i think, i bought my DS used]) :D and don't worry about xposed, they are working on it and it will work.
[HTC Desire S] NVardan:
CM official team abandoned our device after CM 7. Thanks to our devs, our devices will have longer life, than HTC expected. Long live all Desire S devs!

I agree about the battery. But I would need xposed sometimes, to change icons system wide.
[HTC Desire S] Android-UK:
Never expected official for our device, don't be daft lol

Just saying it going to take a time. But hopefully bnd or flinny will figure it out.
[HTC Desire S] petru.tomsa:
Why I am connected at wireless network but the color of signal bars for wi-fi and mobile network are not blue?
[HTC Desire S] gerrysnaps:
IIRC, the change in color only indicates the phone is connected to Google services? At least that's how it was since Gingerbread.
[HTC Desire S] hundeva:
Hey!

Nice rom, been using it for a while, and now I decided to give Andromadusmod kernel a try. Tried both the stable and experimental version, but WiFi just does not seem to work. When I want to turn it on, the slider flashes on the "ON" for a brief moment, than moves back to "OFF", and all I can see is "Turning on Wi-Fi...". Any idea what could have gone wrong or how to fix it? I even tried to wipe cache and dalvik cache (as long as I know, it shouldn't help, but hey, worth a shot), it did not help. On a sidenote, mobile connection works just fine.

Thanks!
[HTC Desire S] 505dv:
You flashed the kernel in the wrong way. If your device is still s-on, you first need to run the Adromadus kernel installer, then flash the boot.img separately.
[HTC Desire S] hundeva:
My bad, I was used to just flash the new kernel, didn't notice there was a zip as well, thanks. :)
[HTC Desire S] milkynex:
The same embarrassing thing with maps on Andromadus. Pretty sad...
[HTC Desire S] hundeva:
For me, if I see that Google Maps have corrupted graphics, I just close it, then immediately reopen the app. At most, on the 2nd reopen, the glitch is always gone. No idea if I am "lucky" or not, but it works for me.
[HTC Desire S] juancp:
I've managed to get rid of the corruption by following these steps:

1. Flash AndroMod experimental kernel (Thanks Android-UK!)

2. On your development options, check "Force GPU rendering"

3. Same screen, force "Disable HW overlays"

Disabling HW overlays was the killer trick there, now I'm able to run maps and chrome without any graphical corruption.

I did run into one issue with the experimental kernel... I set the overclock to 2Ghz and ran into a hard freeze (required pulling out the battery). This probably corrupted something in the system (didn't have time to take a logcat or a dmesg) because I got stuck in a bootloop that was only fixed by clean flashing the ENTIRE rom+kernel+apps. Beware!

Hope this helps!
[HTC Desire S] milkynex:
Great! Worth to try at least... Except of overclocking...
[HTC Desire S] Android-UK:
Don't overclock it to 2GHz, phone really can't handle it. Thus it being an experimental feature. I managed to push my Desire S to 1.6 GHz but after that it gets really hot and keeps crashing.
[HTC Desire S] hundeva:
As far as I heard, disabling HW overlays reduce performance, and produces lag spikes. Anyway, until "my method" works for me, I am fine, thanks for the tip tho. :)
[HTC Desire S] NVardan:
Doesn't work for me. I still get the flickering, after opening and reclosing the status bar, or clicking on the GPS icon on the right bottom corner.

I have the latest Experimental kernel from Kylon, have Forced GPU rendering and Disabled HW overlays.

Any idea why Maps is still flickering.

BTW, I don't have any flickering issue with Chrome, haven't had it, even when GPU rendering was turned off and HW overlays were enabled.
[HTC Desire S] milkynex:
Just the same. It's really annoying with latest updates.
[HTC Desire S] foxthemad:
problem

Hi all. I think I might need some help :)

I flashed the latest release cm-10.1-20130808-UNOFFICIAL-saga.zip

So far so good, phone started fine. But I see that everything that has to do with Google is missing, even Play Store. Am I missing something here? Do I have to flash gapps also?

Sorry if I am asking a silly question. Thanks.
[HTC Desire S] petru.tomsa:
Of course colega. See are new Google apps. ;)
[HTC Desire S] totalnoob34:
Quite a silly one, but we're here to answer every question. Flash them, and you'll be fine ;)

If I helped, hit the thanks button! :)
[HTC Desire S] foxthemad:
Thanks. I'll get home and flash...be back soon to confirm :)
[HTC Desire S] foxthemad:
Ok, so Google account is set up. However, I am getting this error in Play Store, and cannot install anything:

"Error retriving informaiton from server. [RPC:S-5:AEC-0]"

Anyone knows anything about this?
[HTC Desire S] VnnAmed:
Install newest play store LINK
[HTC Desire S] foxthemad:
I think it auto update. Main thing is that all is working fine at this point. Apps run smooth, lots of customization possibilities, got my contact back thanks to Google, installed all used apps back.

I will get back after some time of usage to provide an update. Many thanks all for the time and effort put into this ROM.

cant find developer option. I disd a clean flash. Also cant find option to mute ringtone if i flip the phone... Do i need to flash something else?

You don't need to flash anything. Just go to settings->about phone-> tap "build number" 7 times, and developer settings will appear.

[HTC Desire S] foxthemad:
Just a comment and perhaps an idea for next release.

In Gallery i cannot find any option to show/hide albums.

I personally have albums I don't use and it's annoying...

And another one. I also cannot find any widget for group contacts, like the official htc rom has. I use it daily and would be great to have it back :)

Thanks
[HTC Desire S] Android-UK:
I've looked into this, the issue is not the kernal, mine flickers regardless of which kernal I use. The issue is with Google maps v7 running on CM, see this thread as an example: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2365871

Appears the workaround is to remove maps then install and older version of Google maps v6. At least until CM or Google recreate a fix for it.

Please understand that all this is a working unoffical port of CM10.1, if you want to request features you need to suggest it to the CM team directly. CM is based on pure android so there a lot of things different compared to HTC ROMs.

1. Default JB gallery doesn't have this. You have to download another gallery to hid... stuff ;) I recommend QuickPic

2. There is no widget for contacts, but if you take a look on the Play Store there a few examples. Some free, some note. Personally I used Contacts Widget - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vcmdev.android.people - which is the closest I could find to suit my needs. Maybe someone could suggest another one?

3. BONUS - Since you will definately asked about this, download Uybersync for Facebook, this will give you updates / photo sync for your contacts via Facebook for free.
[HTC Desire S] NVardan:
The group contacts widget is an HTC Sense feature, you won't get it on CM10.1
[HTC Desire S] foxthemad:
Thanks for the response on this one. I have no programming knowledge, so I cannot comment on that. It was just an idea :)
[HTC Desire S] milkynex:
Could you please post the valid link to Maps V6, please.
[HTC Desire S] afterburner94:
Hey guys,

I've been reading this thread for days and I've grew more and more interrested in it!

I'm currently running Flinny's CM based ROM but i am experiencing quite some random reboots, lags and UI bugs that close apps.

I was wondering if you guys experienced Flinny's ROM before flashing BlindnDumb's ROM and if you could tell me what improvement you found compared to Flinny's?

I understand the Gmaps glitch is on every CM Rom running Gmaps v7, so i don't mind about it, but in terms of stability, are you more satisfied with this one?

Thanks in advance!

[HTC Desire S] Android-UK:
Nice. Took a look but it doesn't really do what the HTC contacts app does, as you need to click into the app before you access the contacts. What the app I used does is allow me to click a picture and call them. That what I need when driving, not having to do extra clicks and stuff.

Anyone suggest and other apps. Not the Go launcher ones, as Go launcher sucks.
[HTC Desire S] Demianis:
You can try pixel phone. Very good interface and you can define one page with favorites, where only the pictures are shown.

Use it since one year. It has lots of customisation properties.

[HTC Desire S] afterburner94:
There was just a official GMaps update released today on Google Play, and miraculously, it fixed he flickering glitch we were all experiencing!!! Its awesome!

You guys should try and see for yourselves.
[HTC Desire S] NVardan:
That's awesome, thanks for the info!
[HTC Desire S] Android-UK:
Maybe not so...

I just tried it, the flickering is less, a lot less but is still happening nevertheless.

It seems to happen when it zoomed in / locked in on your position and the screen moves or refreshes.

Can anyone else confirm this?

In fact its doing it right now while I'm sat at home moving the map about.

I'm sticking to v6 for now.

---------- Post added at 04:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:28 PM ----------

It looks good, but its a widget we need, not a total replacement of the interface. Besides I owe Nova Launcher Prime, so not going to change to anything else for the moment. But thank you for offering another alternative :good:
[HTC Desire S] NVardan:
I can confirm that flickering is still present. A lot less, but still there.
[HTC Desire S] otterbvrn:
On mine, latest version maps, flickering activity only happens when maps improving location by wifi or gps
[HTC Desire S] NVardan:
Same here, and also, when pulling the status bar.
[HTC Desire S] otterbvrn:
Yap...

Anyone getting this bug also?
[HTC Desire S] Android-UK:
I don't think that thing is a bug. :confused:

Regardless it still flickers annoyingly.
[HTC Desire S] NVardan:
That's not a bug. That's how it looks like on every single android phone, that have maps v7 installed lol.

[HTC Desire S] HPDoubleDutch:
Thank you so much for this excellent, fast & stable ROM!
[HTC Desire S] NVardan:
I have some weird thing with this ROM (IDK, if I could call this a bug or not).

The speakers, even when the phone is in sleep, start to sound for like 1 second (really low volume though, and it's more like, some kind of whisper). IDK, if it's kernel issue or not, but it's really weird. Can it actually ruin my speakers or is that normal :confused:
[HTC Desire S] Android-UK:
In what situations does the speakers make a sound for 1 second? I haven't encountered this yet.
[HTC Desire S] totalnoob34:
Certainly it's not normal. Reflash the rom, if it does it again it may be an hw issue

If I helped, hit the thanks button! :)
[HTC Desire S] NVardan:
It happens randomly, just probably all the time. It happens, then like after 10-20 seconds it repeats. It's like it tries to make some sound and it doesn't succeed.

It's probably sw issue, because it happens with headphones plugged in too, with the only difference that it sounds in headphones not from speaker, when headphones are plugged in. And it doesn't happen on other ROMs I've tried. I'll wait for a new build to do a clean flash.
[HTC Desire S] oTeMpLo:
Fast ROM I agree.

How to fix ECHO on SpeakerPhone?
[HTC Desire S] rockerblood:
Flash ROM (If HTC Dev Unclocked , Flash boot.img from fastboot)

CAN I DO IT BY USING PHONE ONLY AT RECOVERY? OR NEED TO USE FLASH TOOL?
[HTC Desire S] bartmanus:
Try it! If flashing the boot image with the recovery program doesn't work, use the flashboot tool from your PC.

Well this is the first 3rd party ROM (2013-08-08) I've tried after stock HTC Android 4 and it is great!

I have encountered bugs, though. I

flashed only the ROM

and

not

the Gapps and I got constant errors about programs stopping, the most annoying of which was that the AOSP keyboard couldn't start.

Then in recovery I wiped data+cache and flashed the Gapps package and everything seems to work fine.

Thank you, devs!
[HTC Desire S] rockerblood:
do i need to extract boot img from this CM10.1 rom?
[HTC Desire S] 505dv:
Yes, you do. You need to flash is separately with fastboot if you are S-ON.
