Strange I have both of those enabled but I still need to unlock to see who is calling. Both settings appear to be missed call related as opposed to CURRENT call. I have pattern unlock setup but don't see any way to see the incoming call without doing the unlock first. Very odd.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Vinchenzop:
I think that if you use a lock/security it will hide the caller ID stuff for privacy. I'm not sure that you can have it show while having a password/pattern lock.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] RHall1340:
It seemed to work with Meanbean, but perhaps Google changed something with Android 4.3.. Guess I'll have to deal with it unless someone else can confirm they can see the caller without unlocking (Pattern).
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AarSyl:
No, that can't be normal. Remove the lock, and set it again. After you confirm the lock, there should be a pop up that asks you about blocking info being shown on the lock screen, like text messages and music. Incoming calls might fall into that category.

I will confirm once I flash back to Sense and test this.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Magnum_Enforcer:
Here's the pop-up that comes up once you turn on lock screen security:

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AarSyl:
Hit cancel on the pop up in the screenshot above. That should fix your issue.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ElMadre:
I hit cancel, and both the options noted above are enabled. However, when I got a call today, I could not see who it was (or answer) without typing in the security code first.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kofkorn:
Totally Agree and anxiously waiting

First of all great work on the rom! I like the adjustability and the stability is good too.

The Bluetooth issue is my biggest problem with the updated Sense. It is so bad that even with the headset turned all the way up, I have to cover my BT headset with my hand when I am driving on the Highway to hear the other person talking. Completely eliminates the concept of Hands Free. I tried the "Hearing Aid" setting but it didn't affect the BT mode. I look forward to an updated version with adjusted volume (fingers crossed)

One additional problem that I have is that I've never been a fan of the stock Car home app. However, I cannot get Car Dock Home V3 or CarHome Ultra to become the default app when the phone is placed in the car dock. I've tried freezing the default HTS Car app in Titanium, removing the app outright (needed to reflash to get it back), clearing defaults in each of the app settings, nothing seems to work. When I freeze the HTC car, it prevents Car mode from being enabled. I'm sure this is more of a Sense issue than anything with Viper, but I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction.

I also noted the Beats Icon issue, but it isn't nearly as big of a problem.

Thanks for the efforts!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
Have you tried freezing DockMode as well?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kofkorn:
Hadn't done that yet. It's frozen now. I'll give it a try and see if it helps.

Thanks!

--UPDATE--

Freezing the Dock mode didn't seem to do anything. I did however play a little deeper with some of the beta settings in CarHome Ultra. After freezing both HTC Car and Dock Mode, when I flipped HTC Car Dock Support setting in the Beta Features area, the default app chooser came up.

Seems like Car Home Ultra fiddled with something in the background.

Memory Use

How much memory should I see being used with a clean install? I'm looking at over 700mb of memory tied up before I install anything and its crashing Plex on me when the device runs out of memory, which in turn than crashes Prism.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Robert's PDA:
Man I have to say this: I'm disappointed with JellyBean 4.3. Absolutely nothing to do with Team Venom & the tweaks, both are ALWAYS awesome as usual, but some of the changes Google made with this version just seems like a few steps backward to me. Mostly just talking about the changes they made to the SMS app. So annoying, missing the old SMS app from 4.1.1.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AarSyl:
What do you mean? What's so different about the SMS app?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] hondafreak513:
I think its better
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Robert's PDA:
A couple things right off: You can no longer have a signature, the max size of MMS's was 5MB now it's 300k, 6 times out of 10 when I'm writing an sms and I just stop and go out it does save it as a draft, but it saves it as an "unknown" draft (as in NOT to the person I was txting) so when I finish it I have to put in who to send it to. Just little annoying things like that. Not to mention I miss the old Sense 4.1.1 smilies, don't get me started on that.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Robert's PDA:
Don't get me wrong, 4.3 is better in a LOT of ways & Sense 5.5 is much better than 4. My only gripe with Sense 5.5 is the removal of the smilies. Like I said my issues are really just with the sms app, that's where I spend a lot of my time so it's just constantly in my face just annoying me. I know what you're saying, "use another sms app". Haven't been pushed that far (yet). A part of me wants to just reformat & go back to Viper 3.1.7 (but I'd miss Blinkfeed & the other enhancements of 5.5), & the other half says you can deal with it till the "Black" m8 comes out.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] MassStash:
mms size is a missing tweak. That is the same as stock was 4.1.1. sense 6 mms app is awwwwwesome

~ TF101 on Timduru's Latest KISS Masterpiece

Currently OC'ed to 1.5, KatKernel
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AarSyl:
Not entirely true...max size of 4.1 was either 1mb or 3mb...but certainly NOT 600K.

But currently, I'm running Sense 5, and the max is 1mb (although, I'm running Y18 from yankees, so I don't know if it is his doing, or like that on the stock rom...the stock rom will be flashed by tomorrow anyway).

UPADTE: 1M is the max on the stock rooted version as well.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] nfinitefx45:
You are Correct

stock sense sizes are

<item name="MMS_Msg_Size1">300K</item>

<item name="MMS_Msg_Size2">600K</item>

<item name="MMS_Msg_Size3">1M</item>

<item name="MMS_Msg_Size_Choose">1M</item>

Can be edited to what you would like such as

<item name="MMS_Msg_Size1">1M</item>

<item name="MMS_Msg_Size2">2M</item>

<item name="MMS_Msg_Size3">5M</item>

<item name="MMS_Msg_Size_Choose">2M</item>

this is located in system/customize/MNS/default.xml

reboot after editing

As for the not saving the draft correctly this functions correctly in stock 5 sense

Hope this Helps
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AarSyl:
Thanks MUCH for this, [MENTION=2495853]nfinitefx45[/MENTION]! The more I know how to do for myself, the better off I am.

EDIT: I changed the values & rebooted, but there was no change in the app itself. Any suggestions? I'm using the stock Sense 5.0, deodexed.

Vin, I apologize for posting about a different rom (and base) in your thread, but I think that it will help someone else.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Robert's PDA:
Thanks for the info but this didn't work for me either.

Attached is a screen shot of the file after a reboot, but the settings in the sms app still show the same options as before.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] nfinitefx45:
try wiping dalvik/cache from recovery then boot, should pick up on the settings change
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Robert's PDA:
Don't know why that didn't occur to me before (clearing dalvik & cache), but I just tried it & it's still the same. Again, thanks for your help though.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] nfinitefx45:
Unless it pulls those settings from first install like the CID folder does then this may be need editing before initial install, Will test this this evening to see.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Vinchenzop:
Yea, it does pull those on initial boot...however, there is a way around that...but it will reset your htc sense layout/data (still better than a full data wipe)

After changing the values in system/customize/MNS/default.xml as [MENTION=2495853]nfinitefx45[/MENTION] said above...connect your phone to your computer and run this command via a cmd/terminal

adb shell am start -n com.htc.android.htcsetupwizard/.activity.CustomizationActivity

or you can run it via terminal emulator

su

am start -n com.htc.android.htcsetupwizard/.activity.CustomizationActivity

The reset of sense could take up to a few minutes to actually happen, but once it does, you'll have the reloaded mms configuration.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] detox702:
Can anyone give me a hand? I installed this a few days ago, and my phone is just incredibly slow and non-responsive to the point it is not usable a good portion of the time. Massive (2-3 second) lag on button presses, can't answer calls, apps won't open, etc. Memory is regularly at 750+mb used, even though I have very few apps accessed/running. I saw the first post to wipe and start from scratch, but that's really a "last resort" for me. I've tried using venom tweaks to set between the highest and lowest multitask mods and everything in between. Nothing works. I'm already getting less than 10h battery life, so I don't want to mess with clock speeds.

Every other Venom rom I've used on past devices has been solid, but this one has been a nightmare for me. Help please?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gstanke:
Have you tried wiping dalvik and cache?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] detox702:
Yup. Tried two days ago. Just tried it again to be sure.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gstanke:
On initial install what did you wipe?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] detox702:
On initial install it was fresh. I did the RUU file, so it updated partitions and wiped everything.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gstanke:
Try making a nandroid of your data, wipe then reinstall, and allow to boot, without restoring data see if it is still laggy.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] stovo06:
When I originally did the ruu and flashed Viper, this phone flew.

But after I started downloading my apps and playing with it I had the same issue all the time.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] hondafreak513:
Make sure your CPU speed isn't turned down, I was told if you have power saver on it will turn the speeds down, but use a kernel tuner and check the cpu speeds.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] detox702:
Changed CPU to performance, left min/max settings how they were, disabled CRT animation. I'll test it out for 24h and see what happens. It wasn't powersave, but it was ondemand. So we'll see where it goes.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] detox702:
Ok, made the change. Didn't even take 24h. It's not better. Still can't even turn my phone on without it taking 3-4 sec.

It does have Venom Tweaks and HUB, I think thats what you were asking for.

***The only thing I wish it did have that is lacking is the option to disable Blinkfeed and unfortunately I updated the Xposed installer which for some reason does not support removing Blinkfeed anymore and IMO is a waste of resources. ***

***Edit*** Never mind, I figured out how to turn off Blinkfeed :D I came from a ROM that needed Xposed To turn it off.

Well now that things seem to be back in order again... Wow. Viper came back even better than before thanks for all the hard work by Dev's and testers, so far this baby is running really smooth and with authority.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Vinchenzop:
And for those like Kilokk who didn't see a way to turn off blinkfeed, long press on the home screen and it'll have the option in the top left to disable it.

Phone doesnt receive incoming calls or text

I just realized yesterday that my phone hasn't been receiving incoming calls or text for about the last 3 days. Phone was working great. I think it may have something to do with Google Voice. I tried wiping dalvik and cache and even reinstall this ROM but no help. So I removed Google Voice and signed into Google voice on my computer and went to settings and clicked disable next to my phone number and disable Sprint account so now the phone should be back to normal but I still cant receive incoming calls or text messages. The call history doesn't even show that I have any missed calls. I tried to activate Hangouts for sms and it wanted to send a 1 time sms to my phone number with a confirm text and it never competed it. I kept getting error messages. I thought that maybe this would help reset something. Does any one know what I can try to get the phone to work. I can make outgoing calls and text just nothing comes in. I also tried prl and profile updates no help...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gstanke:
Did you try ##72786#?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] :
Dial ##72786# from your dialer. Select reset from the menu. Your phone will reboot and reactivate. No data will be lost.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] nohart:
It doesn't reset just another screen opens and says SCRTN at the top with Mobile Directory Number, MSID, M.IP Customer Profile info on it. There isn't a menu with reset?

Update - I found it the menu was at the top right...

Update - Holy cr*p! I think it worked I just got about 10 text messages lol Now just need to get my girlfriend to call me to see if incoming calls are fixed. You guys are the best! Thank you
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] :
Glad to help. Unfortunately, it seems this is a common problem and you may have to do this process again.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] physix:
HiI stopped using the previous Venom because I found it made my device too hot while using, even with minimal tweaks.

I gave this one a try and it was so wonderfully smooth. In fact, even as I added tweaks, my phone stayed cool, snappy, responsive.

Then the random reboots started. It seemed to do what the old cm10.2/11 did whereby going in and out LTE into 3g too quickly caused it to just give up.

Anyone else have this problem?

I did a full wipe and reinstall three times, only to have the same issue.

This is my preferred Sense Rom; I loved it prior to the reboots.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Magnum_Enforcer:
I personally haven't had any reboots with this ROM, and I've been running it since it was released. I have, over the past several weeks, started noticing that it starts to lag at some point or another until I reboot the phone. I've also been having issues with Sense reloads, but again, no reboot issues. The next time you have a reboot, use an app like Root Explorer and navigate to the proc/kmsg folder, and copy the contents of the kmsg folder to Dropbox or Pastebin, then post a link here so the devs can take a look at it. Otherwise, my only suggestion is to download the ROM again, check the MD5 of the file you download versus the original, then do a full wipe and start over again.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] thatdumbguy:
Hi, ever since moving to this ROM (which I am totally in love with), I have had an issue at my house in where my phone will connect to a very poor signal LTE tower (in and out of service, 1 bar) over a CDMA tower that has near full strength. While this doesn't cause dropped calls, it causes me to get repeat texts like crazy. I have tried most of the common troubleshooting steps until I narrowed it down to this: My only resolution thus far has been to move the phone to CDMA only instead of CDMA/LTE, which sucks, because if I want 4g when I leave the house I need to constantly toggle it.

As an addendum, I don't remember having this issue under Meanbean, although I suppose it could be coincidental if Sprint is working on the tower near me or something odd like that. However, I don't want to have to Re-RUU to get back the old partition formats to double check quite yet before I asked the question. Guess I could do that.

While I am aware that this may not be an issue to the ROM and might rather be the firmware/etc, I was wondering if anyone had any ideas about a workaround or fix for this, or maybe you can just confirm that it would definitely not be a ROM issue and I should be posting in the Q&A instead/etc.

I must say that compared to other phones I've had, the ROMS I have used (Meanbean and this) have been stellar and I give you a crap ton of credit for some of the features you have in this one. I'm hoping you can help me out. Thanks in advance!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Robert's PDA:
Hey Vin, remember awhile back I was saying how my phone wouldn't play a sound or even vibrate when I sent a text message? Well I just figured out why. I was messing around in the settings while on the train this morning & didn't think anything about it but I sent my lady a message right before I got on the train this afternoon and it vibrated & said "Message Sent". It took me by surprise so I sent another message just to make sure I wasn't just hearing things. I was like why is it all of a sudden acting right, then I remembered what setting I changed, it was in the "Messaging Mods" area of Sense 5 Toolbox. I checked the "Toast Delivery Reports" box which shows a toast instead of a notification in the statusbar. So apparently if there is no notification in the statusbar there is no sound or vibration. Case solved & closed. :o

I'd advise not using xposed not just cause this Rom has tweaks but because it's pretty much a huge backdoor on your phone. Your basically granting su to an app that's controlled by another app. So like team viewing with someone and they're hijacked by someone else. Stay mindful people.
