Developer Interviews in progress

Hey guys,

our busy newswriter guys are looking for some Interview-Questions they could ask a random selection of developers.

If you got that burning question you always wanted to ask but never knew how or where, head over to venomroms.com and drop us that question in the comments!
[HTC Sensation] ashu01:
kernel

guys can i use liberty kernel with this ROM..??

any issues..??
[HTC Sensation] MaratabHashmi:
Use without any any issue;)
[HTC Sensation] PunishersiN:
this rombatary sign problem..batary sign %60 my phone turns off.
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
i don't have any issues with battery with liberty kernel
[HTC Sensation] PunishersiN:
my battary : 3.8VDC 1730 mah

6.57whr

- Normal battery : 3.8VDC 1520 mah

5.62whr

Is the problem that. help me... voltage setting my battery.
[HTC Sensation] hinxnz:
When you use ohms law to calculate using Amps, use the current drawn not the capacity.

Your battery probably needs a tighter fit (using a bit of card) to make better contact, which a lot of users experience.

Phone Radio draining the battery

I have a battery drain and GSam Battery Monitor says that it is caused by the Phone radio. (attached are screenshots)

I tried setting the radio to 2G only and to 3G only but it's the same. The signal is good in both cases.

Does anyone have any suggestion on how to fix this?

Regards.
[HTC Sensation] TheWall-[ITA]:
The only thing I know is that this ROM has a neverending wakelock called RILJ (you can see it with BetterBatteryStats or WakelockDetector), which is associated with Radio. Me and others discussed this thing with the ROM developer long time ago, but there's no way to solve the issue. Anyway, it seems that the wakelock is not causing any noticeable battery drain.

In your case I can see a bad battery drain from the third screenshot... So the problem may be different.

I hope to have pointed you in the right direction to find a fix. :fingers-crossed:
[HTC Sensation] Balikesirli:
You tried newest firmware and radio? I am on 6.06.xxxx and it's fine here.

If yes, then try an other kernel or ROM... I am a Venom Viper addicted user and cannot live 1 day without it but if you have problems try always another ROM to see if hardware is OK or not.

Edit:

Oh sorry wrong device, newest FW for Sensation is 3.33 I think :D

There is no battery drain, just make a battery calibration. If you are flashing the ROM every couple of days you always will get the battery drain.

Voice over BT calls, no sound from BT mic

Hello:

I am user of Vipers on my Sensation since the beginning. Always have been very satisfied with the great work done that has been always improved step by step. Thanks to all the Devs and collaborators!

The reason of my post is because I have just updated to this ROM, while coming from the previous 3.1.4. In my car I have a Kinivo BT450 Bluetooth headset and I have been using it for long time with great satisfaction and few errors during use.Cheap and wonderful gadget for our cars!

The point is that since I upgraded the Rom ( Clean install ) I dont get Voice over Bluetooth when I make or receive a call. I can hear the other side, but I cannot be heard by the counterpart.

Music streaming is perfect, but the headset is not always connecting automatically as it should upon proximity.

I have tried to unpair and pair again; reboot, connecting and disconnecting the headset, all what I can imagine to do, but always the same problem.

I have done a deep search and I didnt find a similar issue to mine. Has anybody faced this oroblem?

Any idea or help?

Thanks in advance!

[HTC Sensation] Lynxen:
Theres something strange going on with my Sensation..

I can not set up my own frq's.

Everytime I set some it goes higher. For example..

I am @ 1080-475 I switch the window to set some profiles and back to the main. bah.. Current max: 1134.. 1450.. 1552.. 1134.

Bar I set before should lock it @ 1080 and it does but just in practice.

I was trying to set some other governors with no succes. It goes higher everytime.

Root acces was given, ROMs tested.

I got phone from my brother. Is it even possible to change some hardware settings or wtf is it that block my ideas????
[HTC Sensation] mjuhari:
Have you try disabling PnPMgr in Venom Tweaks CPU section first, then make changes to the freq?
[HTC Sensation] smart_thingup:
[ASK]

is there's anyway to move application 'data' from internal to 'USB Storage data' in SD card ?

I just install apps, and that apps use internal memory to store their data.

click 'move' is only move 'app' data, not the 'data' that stored in internal memory

(see my picture I attached)

cheers

In build.prop change rom version to 5.2.1 or clean flash viperS 5.1.0 and don't log in to venom hub.

Re-read title of this thread!
[HTC Sensation] Balikesirli:
You are right, checked it and it is real sense 6 blinkfeed :D

It's easy, you have to disable update check in settings and then delete Ota file in sdcard download Folder... Then you don't got any update request :)

[HTC Sensation] iamlegend2:
Not sure if this help, but you can try...

Try a fresh install

If you r using 4EXT, enable the smart flash before flashing.

After done installing the ROM, enter fastboot, flash the kernel posted in #1 post, and done.
[HTC Sensation] 12reza12:
can we use this MultiSwap in this rom ?

Battery Charging Slow

Everything was working fine until a yesterday, now my phone charges about 100% in 4 hours ;/
[HTC Sensation] 12reza12:
check post #833
[HTC Sensation] Winins:
thanks, great work!!!! But i cant change cpu clock with aroma... is this normal?
[HTC Sensation] iamlegend2:
XE and S-ON

Im not sure, but i think its the 4EXT that failed to flash the kernel.. i saw on the phone, after done installing ROM, ext installing boot.img(kernel), maybe 4EXT failed to install the kernel properly.

So maybe flash the kernel afterwards fix the problem.

Im not sure with yours.. sorry..

make sure ur downloaded file md5 matched with md5 in #2 post (download section)
[HTC Sensation] McLongDong:
Hate to repost, but can someone answer this?
[HTC Sensation] ziaulh.ch:
Sense 5.5 has it. Ivica said it will may be possible to port Sense 5.5, so when he does you may have your wish. Until then there is no way with sense 5 to add custom.
[HTC Sensation] ItayPBM:
Battery life aren't good at all comparing to previous roms I used. I'm think I have the dialer problem, according to gsam it drains quite a lot of battery. How to solve it?
[HTC Sensation] ziadpayne:
Thanks for your reply. The solution is in post 833.
[HTC Sensation] Ave_CoVeR:
cant add facebook in highlights. what the problem?
[HTC Sensation] serio22:
Double tap home
[HTC Sensation] SaneQ:
I tried that too but didnt work...
[HTC Sensation] hinxnz:
I have noticed this too on all themes I've tried that theme the status bar on Sense ROMs, normally it changes to the stock icon.

Set it in Venom tweaks, button tab.
[HTC Sensation] maciclazar:
It works when you hold home button. Reboot your phone or reflash the rom if it's not working for you.
[HTC Sensation] sly.cooper:
It is weird but whatsApp and Viber messaging it not working for me over mobile networks. Any suggestion? I never had this issue with previous version or any other ROM. Thanks in advance.
[HTC Sensation] zebidybob:

[HTC Sensation] elvisypi:
Check your APN settings. You have thr password or sth set wrong
[HTC Sensation] sly.cooper:
Internet browsing is working fine. Even FB app works. Same SIM on other android phone works fine.
[HTC Sensation] RobySchwarz:
So You have the same problem.

Any ideas?
[HTC Sensation] elvisypi:
I know it seems strange but I have been through it. Browsing and fb works only whatsapp and viber don't. I than checked the APN settings and compared with the ones I found in internet, found out that a number or pass was wrong. I changed it and it got fixed.
[HTC Sensation] hinxnz:
Yes on all sense ROMs I've tried, report it to the theme creator.
[HTC Sensation] Da Baron:
Just installed your ROM on my friend T-Mobile Sensation. Great job & thanks for the hard work on this ROM.

[HTC Sensation] hanisod:
I have an LG G2 now (which btw let me give my appreciation to the developers... argh, if only LGs had Viper ROMs, I miss all the features, and HTC too)

Are you absolutely positive it's not a problem with the battery? Because that was the main cause of that problem on my Sensation, pretty sure it wasn't the software
[HTC Sensation] dragon25slayer:
how do i enable usb fast charge? thanks
[HTC Sensation] MaratabHashmi:
1. First flash liberty kernel through recovery

2. Then download kernel tuner free app from play store instal/open/select misc/fastcharge on .....

Sebastian FM kernel not supported FC and S2W
[HTC Sensation] m.m.m:
maybe sounds silly but how can I configure cell broadcast settings?
[HTC Sensation] morphmk:
Clean the battery contacts

I had the same problem. Somewhere I found the information that this can be caused by bad battery contact and in my case that turned out to be true.

Take a scalpel or a knife and clean the contacts of the battery and the phone with the tip. I also used a small peace of paper to "push" the battery toward the contacts. Like a peace of business card that you place at the opposite end of the battery to push it toward the contacts.

After doing this the phone stopped powering off.
[HTC Sensation] PunishersiN:
thank you very much. +1

AOSP Colored Quick Settings

Hello Guys,

To me, ViperS is a great ROM. The only thing missing is this little cosmetic that I have attached at the bottom. Seems like all ViperS ROMs have this colored AOSP Quick Settings but the HTC Sensation. I want to give a shout out toahsan64 who was almost finished with the theme but unable to because he couldn't receive any help. Can anyone possibly do this?

EDIT: Link of how it is right now
[HTC Sensation] McLongDong:
Did you ever get that link? Do you mind sharing that to me as well =D

EDIT: How did you find out Seb was working on kernel? Seems to me he hasn't be on for months.
[HTC Sensation] rYzkiE_17:
There is a bug in recent application .. the 1st picture is the bug . There is no underline name and the second picture is the original aosp recent app..

do I have to share a logcat?
[HTC Sensation] Greight:
I can't change my contacts' pictures, is it only me?
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
go to the contact

tap on the camera icon in the down right corner of the contact pic area

select gallery and choose the pic you want

for me it works
[HTC Sensation] jojo-g:
It seems that all JB and upwards ROMs have another power consumtion curve compared to prior ROMs. I also have kind of random shutdowns even if battery is still near 50 %. I have that with every battery older than half a year. Just for finding out I installed original HTCs ROM, Android 4.0 and Sense 3.6. Very ugly and same issue. Only completely stable with HTCs 2.3.x ROMs ... even more ugly ..:eek:

So I installed back ViperS 5.2.1 and get best user experience and have to change battery every half a year :silly:

And also I tried lot of things with my battery, paper trick, cleaning contacts on both sides and .... no use

I guess newer kernel have other behaviour on changing processor frequencies
[HTC Sensation] Greight:
Come on man! I know how to do that! The "problem" is it does not work. I choose the picture but nothing changes.
[HTC Sensation] Greight:
Weird! How come it works fine for everybody except for me?!
[HTC Sensation] hinxnz:
Just saying my experience is that I find most rom's similar in terms of battery though. I have two Anker's and a stock battery. The Anker's are nearly two years old and the stock one is three years old. They all work fine on all rom's, they don't seem to go right down to 1% all the time but usually to about 3% before shutting down. Saying this though, it is not good to let your battery go dead flat all the time, this will shorten its life. It's not good to frequently change batteries either. It's also not good for your battery to be left on charge after it has been charged, your battery will last longer if you slightly under charge it and not let it reach a very low level when in use.
[HTC Sensation] Rafi76:
After using my Senny for over 2 years I sold it. I will miss Team Venom and their great ViperS. Currently I switched to Xiaomi MI3. Great phone by the way. My question is: how could I disconnect my old phone from Venom Account? Is there any web site?

Thx.

... it does not work, any idea ?
[HTC Sensation] MaratabHashmi:
First its not sense 6

Second I don't face any problem,I think your battery problem not Rom problem
[HTC Sensation] czguy:
contact pictures

it doesn't work in my case either, I've reported a bug a long time ago, but it's seems only very few people have this issue. You can assign a picture to a contact if you take a picture using a camera but it won't let you to assign a saved picture...
[HTC Sensation] Corvo007:
It is JB / KitKat issue. Most likely because our phone officially don't support Android version higher than 4.0.

I (and many others) have this problem too. I made a little test, with JB / KitKat ROMs almost every time phone shuts down when I take picture with flash, and by almost I mean 19 out of 20 times, even with fully charged battery at 90-100%. After that I switched to several ICS ROMs (stock rooted, ARHD, HyperNonSense) and I didn't had a single shutting down. Even with low battery at 10%. Not a single. It is definitely not a battery issue.
[HTC Sensation] 12Stef:
I already had this problem with stock ics rom.
[HTC Sensation] icanttinkofaname:
Can anyone tell me how to get the pro key again? I bought it ages ago but had to clean flash recently. I forgot to back it up and the key is no longer on the play store.
[HTC Sensation] nickbaron:
I think that this rom needs 1. better tactile sensitivity 2. better battery performance 3. better kernel ( embedded liberty stable kernel ) 4. Browser not search google imposiible had enough of my technical level, if they would try to fix it with heart and soul :crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
[HTC Sensation] cipher101:
This rom is perfect as is for this hardware.

If you need more performance get one m8.
[HTC Sensation] m.m.m:
I was just using the phone, suddenly the signal bar showed no signal, I hadn't changed any setting or app, then I went to about - network, it said signal strength 0, Operator name and mobile network type unknown. it doesn't recognize my sim card anymore!

then I flashed a CM11 ROM, it worked! it detected operator and no problems! now I flashed back the backup of ViperS 5.2.1, it doesn't detect it again! what's wrong with it? had anyone experienced it too?
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
flash vipers rom without wipe

see if you have signal
[HTC Sensation] havlaz:
Hey viper team, I just flashed your amazing Rom.

I hav 3 problems..

1) the buttons lights are always off. How do I turn them on?

2) the LCD brightness , when I'm setting it to automatically, after a few turs off, the LCD brightness is set to zero.

3) when I pull down the notification bar, I don't have a quick setting (that shown with the notification s).

Trying on venom tweaks, but with no luck.
[HTC Sensation] Greight:
Yes, that's exactly the same problem I have.
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
1)go to venom tweaks->buttons

somewhere there is an option for capacitive buttons

3)press and hold to the date

quick settings will appear
[HTC Sensation] havlaz:
3) works great

1) the lights doesnt turn on.
[HTC Sensation] radhx:
1] Open stock gallery app.

2] Long press on the desired image.

3] Select "Set as" and then "Contact icon".

4] Select the corresponding contact for that image.

You should get that picture as icon for your selected contact.

If it doesn't work for the first time, remove contact icon from "People" for that contact, and re-do above steps.

This works for me. :good:
[HTC Sensation] strokalifa:
So no real problem here but, are we ever gonna get a full sense 6 rom? Just curious
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
no we won't

Hi, am using viperS 5.1 and i am having random shutdowns and reboots.. any idea why thats happening?
[HTC Sensation] Iceberger:
Too much undervaulting?
[HTC Sensation] huzefaonline:
ok. but i am using all the stock settings that were there when i flashed the rom. did a clean flash. could battery be the issue?
[HTC Sensation] aminarmani:
why still JB?

hello im new to this. may i ask why is venom still stuck at 4.1.2 JellyBean?
[HTC Sensation] huzefaonline:
coz i would'nt say impossible when it comes to team venom, but porting sense roms for higher version of android requires a lot of effort and time. also team venom has moved on to htc one and one m8 so with sensation they will stick with android 4.1.2.
[HTC Sensation] fufinoid:
Well, try to put a little piece of paper in the upper right corner to make the battery pins fit better. It helped to me, and to many other. Moreover, the battery life will be better after that.
[HTC Sensation] huzefaonline:
ok, Just did that. hope it'll work. hope it prevents the phone from turning off while taking a picture with flash.
[HTC Sensation] m.m.m:
nope didn't make sense.

---------- Post added at 04:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:54 PM ----------

I had the same issue, in my case it was because the battery was old and couldn't handle enough current for the flash, so I changed the battery and the issue solved.

-Is it possible to make work the usb otg without external power with the method of Sebastian (or others)?

-is it possibile to put the scrolling wallpaper like in ics or others?

-can you tell me what is the best xposed mod? because I see the huge menu but I don't know what mod should I have to install?

-are others mod like the one in the thread here in the forum, dangerous for the stability or the phone in general?
