are u sure that the compass problem is due the update of google map? i m using latest map on ICS and it's working well. i think this issue is related to the rom or kernel. other compass apps also do not work on this sense 5 rom. same bug on revelation 1.0.3. so i dont know whether it's related to kernel. i have tried old version map on vipers 5.0, it does not work man.
[HTC Sensation] Mark376:
Ok, Test with Z-device and it shown the correct direction :good:

EDIT: Maps shown correct direction also :D
[HTC Sensation] solimavera:
Tnx

Can i use this version of rom on htc one s c2 ?

Yes.

I have sync problems with Google (calendar, keep) always after some time after fresh install. How to fix this?
[HTC Sensation] maciclazar:
Wipe data and cache on play store and play services with internet connection turned off and reboot phone.

If that doesn't work install older version of play services mentioned a few pages back.
[HTC Sensation] lykosha:
Most likely you have adaway. Remove it and clean the file host.
[HTC Sensation] andy hall:
I found disable HTC PC Synch did the trick

do it in calendar

ok, I just had the sync issue again.

Looked in the calendar app and HTC PC Sync was enabled again, no idea why.

disabled it again and no joy.

rebooted, checked and it was still disabled, and sync was working again.

Hello.

I'm having problems with downloading apps from play store: they start downloading but then the percentage stops and they stay like stat for ages... Sometimes they manage to finish, while sometimes I get an error (like 902, but not always that one).

I've wiped cache and data of Google Play Store and Google Play Service (tried with or without network connection on), I've wiped cache and dalvik cache from recovery, but nothing changed.

It's not connected with free space (I have plenty) neither with the dimention of the app.

It both happens with wifi and netwerk connection.

The only thing I've done is blocking autorun of Google Play with Gemini, but not sure it can be related...

Any idea?

Thanks
[HTC Sensation] vaah:
Helo can anyone give me their opinion about this rom?

My HTC is stock but full of bloatware. My main objective is to use the device as second device, because I have 2 sim card number. I just need something that is stable, no bloatware and preferable snappy feel. No game will be installed mostly just for calling and sync phonebook from google account.
[HTC Sensation] maciclazar:
The rom is pretty good. It's fast, stable and has a great battery life. You can choose which apps to remove during installation.

In my opinion it's much better than stock rom.
[HTC Sensation] vaah:
Alright thanks. I've been looking at several other custom rom but this rom is the only one that interests me. At the moment i'm experiencing major lag on stock rom. I know this maybe solved by rewipe. But i'd like something alittle bit new. [emoji4]
[HTC Sensation] vaah:
Sorry for my ignorance but can someone elaborate on how to install this rom?

I'm really clueless at this point. I downloaded the rom itself, and was going to download the RUU file as my phone is stock. Hence I would assume that it's still S-ON.
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
if you have 3.32 or 3.33 firmware there is no need for ruu.exe

just go directly for the rom

use 4ext recovery and enable smartflash(because you are on S-ON) exactly before flashing the rom
[HTC Sensation] vaah:
So I checked my HTC, it says:

Android ver 4.0.3

HTC sense 3.6

Software number 3.33.707.51

Is the firmware ver referring to software number?

Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] Harakhti:
Yes.
[HTC Sensation] vaah:
Alright.. I installed 4extrecovery, and ran it. it seems that i need to root my phone first yeah? when I boot into recovery mode, it doesn't load 4extrecovery, but HBOOT 1.27 instead.

Wow man...I never stumble upon such complexity when root / installing custom rom for my samsung. So please bear with me, i'm noobs when it comes to HTC device.
[HTC Sensation] matekaneve:
When you are in hboot, navigate to the recovery option by using the volume rocker. Then press the power button to access recovery. When you are in 4ext recovery, go to settings and enable "smartflash". Next step, go to restore/backup menu and make a backup (nandroid) of your current rom. (Just in case). I assume you already copied the rom on your SD card. Next step, go wipe/format menu and choose format all, except SD card option. (or something similar, I don't remember exactly.) When it's done, go to install zip from SD card menu, select the zip file (the rom) and flash the rom.
[HTC Sensation] vaah:
Thats the thing...nothing comes up when i navigate to the recovery option. and when I open the 4extrecovery app within the rom, it asks me to root the device. so what should i do now?
[HTC Sensation] matekaneve:
Download the recovery file I attached to this post and flash it in fastboot mode. Reboot into bootloader, choose the Fastboot option. On your computer you need the fastboot/adb drivers installed, or download it from HERE. Place the downloaded recovery file to your fastboot/adb folder and flash it by typing "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" in command prompt. You then will be able to load into the recovery.
[HTC Sensation] Pash0k:
How i can reboot phone ? Any command not work. I have root. Command in tasker, not work. Command in shell not work. Any app for reboting not work. Use power key reboot work, but i need periodically and automatically reboot. Thnks!
[HTC Sensation] vaah:
I followed your instruction, and then i navigate to recovery, still won't boot to recovery.. instead this screen appears...

I'm so at lost. I still need your help.

Also please tell me how i can root this device.

Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
i can't see your attachment

can you post it again or somewhere else?
[HTC Sensation] matekaneve:
Silly question here. Is your bootloader unlocked? :what: :confused:
[HTC Sensation] vaah:
Bootloader locked, s-on, unrooted, stock. This is gonna be the first time i put custom rom..
[HTC Sensation] vaah:
This is the pic. Maybe there was an error with tapatalk.View attachment 3377646
[HTC Sensation] matekaneve:
Lol. :) that's why you don't get anywhere. Right. 1. Go to htcdev.com and unlock your bootloader. Just follow the instructions. Very straight forward. 2. Flash the 4ext recovery file I previously attached. 3. Enable smartflash in 4ext. 4. Make a nandroid backup of your current rom. 5. Flash ViperS rom
[HTC Sensation] vaah:
Ah yes...I've been confusing myself with alot of guide but most link expired. Hence the question here. I'll do that when I got home later. I might ask again if i need more help. Thanks a lot

So all htc device comes with its bootloader locked i presume? My mom htc one x might need custom rom somewhere in the near future.
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
you don't have even installed the custom recovery

and you can't do it with locked bootloader

you have 2 options:

unlock the bootloader

https://www.htcdev.com/

or

to S-OFF the device

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2751187

then you can install a custom recovery(i suggest 4ext recovery)

note: if you follow the S-OFF procedure,after S-OFF you have to install a custom firmware in order to be able to flash the custom recovery

take it from here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1459767

download 3.33 universal

follow the instructions to the letter

and before flashing check md5 sums(important)
[HTC Sensation] vaah:
What is the pro cons between these two methods?
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
with S-OFF you have access to the firmware partition too

no big deal
[HTC Sensation] vaah:
Which is probably i don't need,right?

My goal is just to install this rom.
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
no you don't need it basically

just providing a second option:)
[HTC Sensation] vaah:
I need your help again. I went through the process from the beginning.. unlocked bootloader using htcdev.com, then flashed 4ext, installed the viper rom...all went well. But i can't seem to get past the white htc splash screen after reboot. It's been staying like this for over 15 minutes.

View attachment 3378666

What gives?
[HTC Sensation] matekaneve:
Did you enable the "smartflash" option in 4ext settings? You need to do it before flash the rom. If it's still not working, extract the "boot.img" file from the rom on your PC, copy it to your fastboot/adb folder. Then reboot into the bootloader on your phone, choose fastboot and in command prompt type "fastboot flash boot boot.img". But first of all, try enabling smartflash and reflash the rom!
[HTC Sensation] vaah:
Yes apparently i completely forgot to enable smartflash. I followed your instruction, since it wasn't mentioned i forgot that i must enable it.

I just did and reflash the rom again. This time it works, this thing is very complex if you don't anything about flashinh custom rom.

Thanks a lot for matekaneve and rzr86 who helped many times!!
[HTC Sensation] matekaneve:
No problem. Enjoy the rom. There are 100s of options to customize your phone in venom tweaks. Try all. ;)
[HTC Sensation] solquest3:
Solved.

The problem was having blocked autorun of Google Play Store and Google Play Service..

Taking them off, the downloading apps from Google Play Store works fine.

i tried to change the Rom with the last existent zip rom which was in my sd card but it doesnt fixed.

it wasnt important for me so i wait for some weeks but it suddenly fixed and then i could use my camera with no problem. after 4-5 days that showed up again. i didn't know which app made this problem i decide to make a HOT BOOT i did it but the biger problem occurred ==> the phone rebooting repeatedly after the (HTC and venom) logo. the rom doesn't start and before that the phone restarts. i change the rom but i didnt try any other rom just the venom. i really dont know what is going on! please help me venom. thank u very much. i really like your brilliant roms.
[HTC Sensation] pmncivil:

what recovery do you have?

i suggest to use 4ext recovery and the latest version

are you on S-ON?
[HTC Sensation] metropical:
from 1.6.3 to ViperS 5.2.1

I was just about to update from Viper 1.6.3 to 2.0.3 when I noticed this version.

Will it work with T-Mob US WiFi Calling?

I have revived my Sensation while my M7 goes back for purple tinted camera repair.

Can I go straight from 1.6.3 to this or are there intermediate steps to take?

Can I use TWRP or do I need to use 4EXT?
[HTC Sensation] andy hall:
TWRP does not play with Aroma, not sure about this installer, have only used 4ext.

apparently no to WiFi Calling. post 8721. Darn the Luck ! ! !

Hi all have a small issues here,

just install this ROM (5.30 version) couple weeks ago, and just realized having problem playing music with this ROM

i copied my mp3 files to my sd card, but it not shown in music player (empty)

anyone elese having this problem, how to copy music to this rom?

thx
[HTC Sensation] andy hall:
make a folder called music and put them there
[HTC Sensation] remorze:
still cant detect music files :confused:

well..think i'll might reinstall this rom then :rolleyes:
[HTC Sensation] hinxnz:
Download a media rescan app and run it.

Make sure there are no .nomedia files in the folder of your music.

You could also try wiping data for media storage in the all app settings and rebooting.
[HTC Sensation] RealSkier:
Voicemail notifications with ViperS CS 5.3.0?

I know voicemail notifications have been a problem with this ROM off & on. It seems for me that 5.3.0 suffers from it too. Is anyone else using 5.3.0 that has working VM notifications? Does anyone know of a fix for me? (TMO Sensation 4G)

I have tried this ROM as full install and as de-sensed. Both ways I don't get knew voicemail notices.
[HTC Sensation] andy hall:
this is one of the flaws try "a better voicemail notifier" free and configurable.
[HTC Sensation] ataf:
Having just 450mb free space

does this rom support Ram-disk?

and how can i enable it

thanx
[HTC Sensation] andy hall:
have you tried mounts2sd, works a treat for me
[HTC Sensation] ataf:
Is this just a method to shift the apps on sdcard, or does the app create a ramdisc on sdcard for the apps?
[HTC Sensation] andy hall:
Create an ext4 partition on the SD card before the fat partition use mounts2sd to move stuff there , acts like an extension to the internal storage.
[HTC Sensation] metropical:
more on mounts2sd

hi andy, this is my issue exactly. I'd like some more "free" space in the RAM; I have only 260MB now.

How do I make a ext4 partition and then FAT32 the rest of the SD.

Would please explain a bit further?

I'm on OSX Mavericks.

How can I install regional fonts on this ROM from other ROMs e.g. HTC Desire 826X (LP 5.0.2)?

In fact I tried to install these by copying required .ttf files under /system/fonts and including the reference for the same in /system/etc/fallback_fonts.xml, but XE hangs on boot.

I tried few other fonts from JB 4.1.3. This time XE didn't hang but keyboard showed some junk characters instead actual regional ones.

What is the picture quality of the camera relative to the stock rom ?
[HTC Sensation] maciclazar:
Stock rom has slightly better picture quality due to auto enhance feature. This rom allows you faster shutter speed, capturing video and taking pictures at the same time, slow motion video... You have to try both to tell the difference yourself.

App version not compatible with your device @Google Play Store

Hi,

Recently, when I try to update my apps at Google Play Store, more and more of my free as well as purchased apps are being displayed as "This version is not compatible with your device", and I'm not able to upgrade to the latest version of that app.

I contacted few app developers, e.g. Textra, and they conformed that it's nothing to do with their app as they are still supporting JB 4.1.2. I got the latest apk from Textra and it installs fine on our Sensation.

So, I contacted Google and I got the following answer -

---

Hi Rajesh,

Welcome to the Google Play Help Forum. Since your device has been rooted, it sounds like you may need to contact those developers for support. This community is for basic, user level Google Play questions. I recommend visiting forum communities that support rooted devices for the best answers.

Best of luck,

Ian

Does rooting interferes with downloads from Google Play Store? All this time it wasn't the case. This issue started since last month or so. And as I could install the supposedly incompatible app successfully on my Sensation, I really doubt Google theory.

Can anybody help, as I am losing my paid apps too because of this issue?

Regards.
[HTC Sensation] ivicask:
It simple must work, you need to be running latest rom, and registered on HUB, tried simple phone reboot?Tweaks needs to pull it automatic from server.
[HTC Sensation] ivicask:
Try updating Google Play services and Play store manualy.
[HTC Sensation] dodo2244:
Thanks, Ivica!

It works now. I just did a ROM reinstall after my data partition was wiped after flashing a screen recalibration file :p. :eek:

Phantom screen touches are now sorted.

This ROM still rocks, even after all this time. Thank you Team Venom :cowboy: :good:

My next device must have Team Venom support :D

Merry Xmas and a Prosperous 2016.

Tried updating Google Play Services/Store manually, but didn't work.

Eventually found out that it is a Google Play Store glitch.

http://www.howtogeek.com/138500/the-ultimate-guide-to-installing-incompatible-android-apps-from-google-play/

Google decides whom to allow downloads depending on the ro.product.model and ro.product.manufacturer values in build.prop.

You have to change these values to a Latest Model like HTC One X or similar using a File Manager like ES File Manager.

OR use an app called "Market Helper" :

http://codekiem.com/2013/02/13/market-helper/

I am using Market Helper app and now I can download all my free/paid apps which were marked incompatible by Google Play Store.

Regards.

I actually borrowed yesterday Sensation to my friend as he broke hes Lumnia, and i downloaded apps from play store without any problems...

And phone is untouched since my last mini update that i posted here..

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=55520677&postcount=8761
[HTC Sensation] radhx:
That could be because this Play Store glitch is country specific too... as explained in the "Ultimate Guide..." link.

For country specific glitch, there is another app suggested in that link.

I hope Google starts checking the Android version on the phone instead of model/name of the phone for allowing the downloads.

Regards.
[HTC Sensation] cannonleo:
i want to say a big thank you to the whole venom team for the list of amazing roms i have been able to enjoy right from dhd to S currently, i have been a guest on this forum for 4 years and re-registered just yesterday so i could extend my gratitude for this beautiful piece of work. a relief from my three day re-flashing cycle of viper dhd due to a bug with the Bluetooth that seems to happen every three days of flashing it.

this rom is the most smoothest ,snappiest and elegant rom i have ever used and the most amazing thing at it is that despite the low Ram on my sensation 592 with stock rom and 582 with Viper S. i experience absolutely no lag despite running a heavy combo of whatsapp,messenger,facebook,instagram etc i am able to multi-task effectively

although i use RAM Manager pro with an Sd-card swap of 1 Gb. and hard gaming mode enabled, with just a free ram of 98mb i can still swap effectively between these apps without any Force Closing (Unbelievable)

pardon me for this questions i am going to ask as this is my first major post on xda so please bare with me.

question 1

the only bug i noticed on the viper s rom on my senny is my inability to authorize htc sense to access my account via the interface because there seems to be a problem editing on the textboxes in the internal web browser,

same thing when trying to login to instagram via facebook funny enough my facebook is up and running and working seamlessly but when ever i decided to authorize any other apps to access facebook as a login interface eg enabling htc sense to access my facebook,

i get an interface with "login to facebook" with a text area for both username and password ,tap on any of it, no keyboard pops up, long press on it , no paste, edit etc options, so basically i cant login into this area via fb interface. please i really need some help on this.

Question 2:

on every online review and on htc webpage the htc sensationZ710e is quoted as having 768 mb of RAm however, when i got my senny i had nothing else than 592 mb of Ram as stated on my task manager, so what happened to the 176 mb of Ram.

Thanks and Big ups Team venom you rock
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
the answer for question 2 is that the rest of the ram is for the gpu:)
[HTC Sensation] cannonleo:
Thanks

thanks bro

but am curious is there a way of disabling it (GPU), and what are the cons of doing so.

i am not intending to do so
[HTC Sensation] tom0769:
Simple thing: no ram for GPU, no graphics, thats it.

If you need more ram, check out [MENTION=2307984]delta-roh[/MENTION] swap mod. I use it on CM12.1 and it works great.
