ART

Hi it's my first post here in the forum.

I have a Desire S and used a long time 4.04.

In the last 7 month i tried different cm10.1 and cm11 rom from devil kin.

i like'd the cm10.1 but after i switched to cm11 from 08022014 i was absolutely happy with the performance and the battery stats.

Awesome rom over all.Now i switched to the newest one and tried also the ART.

The Battery stats are ok with the newer roms but the one from 08022014 are the best for me.

A few apps don't work with art.Titanium Backup and others.

Then i restored my Backup with dalvik.

Have anyone the same problem with art

[HTC Desire S] VnnAmed:
ART is still in development. That's why it's in the developers settings :D So yes some apps have trouble working on it. Can you please tell us what apps? BTW I was using twrp on art and it was running just fine. Are you on stock superuser or did you install supersu?
[HTC Desire S] moschman:
I use 4ext 1.0.0.6 RC1 with stock super user.The Titamium App produce a error after reboot during my tests.Not only when i open it.

I only test it for a short time.

ART works a little bit smoother but sometimes it lags.

I will stay on Dalvik.It works better for me at the moment.In which partition store the ART the cache files?

[HTC Desire S] 441Excelsior:
someone should finally make MDDI kernel
[HTC Desire S] VnnAmed:
Frankly i have no idea. But if you wanna wipe them then standard recovery wipe does the trick so maybe in the same as dalvik

That's true. Sadly right now i don't have skills required to even try to compile one. I don't really think anyone would be able though if Flinny didn't make one so far :(
[HTC Desire S] MarlX:
Titanium Backup 100% works with ART.

[HTC Desire S] VnnAmed:
That's my experience too.

HARDWARE post updated.
[HTC Desire S] moschman:
Have you installed the apps after switching to Art?i habe tried to switch with all my installed apps.i think that's the reason i've problems with it.

[HTC Desire S] VnnAmed:
Theoretically it makes no difference. Practically I always barebone, switch to ART then install aps :)

BTW. about MDDI kernel. Flinny said we need a person with MDDI panel and enough kernel knowledge to compile it for the new framebuffer.
[HTC Desire S] moschman:
In the next days i will test it with ART again.With clean Installation.I hope it works for me.

I have my desire S in daily use and I cannot stay to long with errors in a rom.I'm on S-ON and must always flash boot.img

so i can do this only at home:)But i will try all new roms from devil kin.:D
[HTC Desire S] Aquous:
Interesting thread. However, it is a known fact that AOSP ROMs have markedly worse battery life than Sense ROMs (e.g., on SVHD I can manage 2 days with moderate use, on a recent AOSP build I'd be happy to last 8 hours, even after dimming the brightness and such). Has this issue been resolved yet? (It might possibly be related to wifi, because I observe the same behavior if under Sense I tick the 'enable best performance' setting under wifi?)
[HTC Desire S] moschman:
First time i have the same problems.switch to fix destination in c'lock fixed the Problem.also check if Google now is off

[HTC Desire S] 441Excelsior:
I have MDDI device but no kernel development knowledge :(
[HTC Desire S] charos:
I also believe that . That's the reason I'm sticking with Blackout Rom (I found out battery lasts more than SVHD - maybe I'm wrong),

Did anyone lately done an actual comparison with CM11 and Sense in terms of battery life? My last tests were almost a year ago so maybe things got better ...
[HTC Desire S] 441Excelsior:
blackout has not working wifi hotspot, I use Ice Cream Saga with LeeDroid tweaks and its almost the same as blackout rom :)
[HTC Desire S] VnnAmed:
CM is not really entirely AOSP. Thay make a lot of changes. Battery life on CM 11 is very good, 2 days easy. I run at 1600MHz now but it is bareboned so less porocesses running in the background. Will make a bareboning list soon. Should have allready but I'm a very lazy person.

MDDI kernel

I have a Desire S with MDDI panel & some kernel development knowledge. I have PM'ed Flinny to get some help. Awaiting his reply.:cowboy:
[HTC Desire S] VnnAmed:
That's a great news. If you will need any help not requireing money (which I sadly don't have) or kernel compiling knowldge, then write. I have i7 740QM (4 cores, 8 threads), 8GB RAM DDR3 with 1TB drive and 50MiB broad-band at your disposal. One word and Linux of your choosing with Team Viewer will be ready. We would have to schedule usage though.

Battery and Case

Hi guys. As long this is a rebirth topic...

Any suggestion where to buy good replace battery and cases for our Desires S? I have bought a battery from DX but its seems not good as original one.

Any ideas?
[HTC Desire S] VnnAmed:
Best battery is an original one from HTC e-store. U can buy a replacement but don't look at the capacity that's on the box. They are usually not even close to real values. Now talking about covers... That's a personal thing :) just look at your local (countrywise) equivalent of eBay. Sorry for late response. My mind is very poorly organized

Hi there,

first of all I'd like to thank you for the great work on Saga custom roms!

Then, since I've got the error "set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed" while loading the .zip file, I found that I must upgrade my recovery (4EXT). I'm asking you is it better to keep 4EXT or must I switch to CWM?

Thanks in advance.
[HTC Desire S] zeus.lny:
update ur recovery.. it may help.... btw which recovery r u on
[HTC Desire S] teadrinker:
There is no up-to-date CWM for the Desire S, either stick with 4ext, or use TWRP (the 2.7.1.0 version from this forum)
[HTC Desire S] :
There are inofficial updates out there for CWM. I'm using a CWM 6.4 touch by PhilZ running on my DesireS and had no issues flashing devil-kins roms yet.

Question: anybody else having issues with Exchange sync of contacts with devil-kins 4.4.4 build? I already did a clean flash but I always end up with this bug. The issue is, that not only my primary address book is synced, but any contacts I have + all contacts from the auto-suggest feature of Outlook/Exchange. Others seem to have the same issue starting with Android 4.4 (unfortunately I'm not yet allowed to post any links to those threads or the bugreport on AOSP) Strange thing is, that I didn't have any issues with devil-kin's roms until 4.4.4, so previous 4.4.x build where just fine. Anybody an idea how to fix? (unfortunately I'm below the 10 posts limit so can#t directly post in the dev forum)

edit: related ticket is 61979 on AOSP bug tracker
[HTC Desire S] LiquorBurn:
Thank you, after updating 4EXT from 1.0.0.5 to 1.0.0.6 I was able to flash Devil-Kin's CM11 rom. Now I'm testing it.

---------- Post added at 08:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:19 AM ----------

I do know I gotta update my recovery :)

I also wrote which one I'm using, have you read my post? :confused: :eek:
[HTC Desire S] toni_mon:
If you are S-Off than you can update through recovery updater app from play store or you can flash the recovery.img through fastboot if you are S-On than you have the only choice through fastboot

don't thank me just press the thanks button
[HTC Desire S] kchaisu:
I have the same problem as u mentioned. But I solve the problem by set up a contact file for what I need then exports the contact file to sdcard. Whenever I install a new ROM, I would untick contact syn at the Goole account then go to clear up contact at related apps. Then imports the contacts from the sdcard.
[HTC Desire S] :
That's unfortunately not an option for me, because you loose the possibility to sync new contacts on the phone back to Exchange. For now I cleaned up the auto-suggest list in Exchange, but I hope the google guys will solve it quickly.
[HTC Desire S] kchaisu:
I have been tried KitKat ROM for HTC Desire S many versions mainly from Devil Kin and some of others, developers for sometime and found out that customers have different apps installed with the limit resources and RAM of outdated DS which causing problems varied from one to another not only the conflict of ROM to apps but also space on RAM itself. These problems give the difficulty the developers to define problems suit to individual users. I currently using Mokee ROM by Ruling by keeping minimum apps installed to the system and used Titanium back up to freeze unnecessary apps from MoKee apps especially Chinese version of the apps. I also keep my Radio, HBoot, and Recovery versions the same as developer (Devil Kin, because he somehow committed himself to the development for our DS and I will not get away from his development by anyway. It is because he has his heart for our outdated device.)
[HTC Desire S] notallowedatall:
I hope that this (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2780606) rom will be supported and added to this thread in the future too.

I did install it yesterday and for now works just fine, no errors in core phone functions and xperia gui is really responsive.
[HTC Desire S] kchaisu:
I have tested the latest updated Mokee ROM by Ruling (27/07/2014) with Finny ringtone fix; the system is very smooth and responsive. However, I also apply AGPS-Ringtone fix by Devil Kin, and found that AGPS caused the system unstable (I assume that Ringtone fix is the same version as Finny), especially with Fi theme. But Fi theme has no problem with Finny ringtone fix alone. Thanks to Ruling for keep on update the ROM.
[HTC Desire S] kchaisu:
I feel sorrow for the decision made by Devil Kin for leaving DS ROM development despite people still need his devotion. Well, people have there own life and dignity to do what they feel to suit they need. However, when the time comes to leave the community they have joined in for sometime which they have been sharing together with joy and sorrow somehow their minds have been addicted to that habit because happy or joy and sorrow are parts of our lives. Therefore time manage is crucial for human as well as positive thinking and avoiding high expectation to have the outcome as we like and love because proper time management lets us doing more good things and positive thinking could make days of our living with happy and joy no matter how the outside of mind was. Good luck to Devil Kin and thanks for all his devotion to our community.
[HTC Desire S] kchaisu:
So far latest Mokee KK ROM for Saga by Ruling (30/07/2014) seems to be OK, except ringtone call have to be fixed.
[HTC Desire S] kchaisu:
The latest MoKee Kitkat ROM (201408062144) by Ruling, calling ringtone, WiFi, Bluetooth, and DSP Manager are working fine.
[HTC Desire S] :
does bluetooth audio playback also work? I'm unfortunately having issues with this in devil-kins builds. It works when paired to only a bluetooth speaker, but not when paired to a radio with both, handsfree and bluetooth audio :( That's the only thing bugging me atm - other than that, I'm really happy with devil-kins rom. Too bad his device was ran over by a car.
[HTC Desire S] kchaisu:
Sorry for belated response. Haven't tested to pairing to radio with both hands free and Bluetooth though. So far, haven't faced any problem yet.
[HTC Desire S] Ammiraglio:
Hello, some lags, freezes, graphic corruptions.... overall it's slower respect to JB. The headset mic does not work on regular call only.

Great work anyway, considering how old is DS.
[HTC Desire S] :
shame on me. Noticed that my radio with handsfree is saving speaker configuration per bluetooth device, and since I had to reconnect after flashing the new image it lost configuration and had the default output set to port with no speakers connected (hurray for that crappy radio). So bluetooth audio is working just fine and now even with song info (thanks to 4.4 IIRC)

DAP digital audio player

Hi, I am not a developer but a normal user, thanks for all your work letting me to play around with my Desire S.

My goal is to make my DS connect to an integrated amplifier with usb dac function for playing 24bit 96khz music stored on the sd card. So far the only kernel recognising usb sound device is amidabuddha's 3.0.89 kernel, but this one support ics only, I believe all ics roms do not have the API built for usb sound devices, please correct me if I am wrong.

Roms that I had tried:

saga_PAC_JB_4.2.2-v23.0.0_20130706-232137.zip

cm-11-20131230-UNOFFICIAL-saga-flinny-alpha2.zip

Desire_XS_Version_1.1.zip

Beta_SAGA_fixed.zip

JellyFireBeanv2.zip

RTS_1.2.5.zip

PAC-man v23.0.0 - The AIO Rom

Those Jelly bean roms cannot see my usb devices at all, I believe it is due to the kernel support.

Is there any kernel for Jelly bean on Desire S support usb audio?

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomboomer:
Weird if just changing the screen corrupted the efs but irrespective how it happened you need a backup of the efs folder to restore. If you don't have a backup then service centre required.

If you have a box then read the dead boot thread in general forum, the later stages might work.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mark845:
No efs back up.

what you mean by if I a Box? what box?

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] dj-stealth:
I am considering changing my name to Victor Nabrovski. I have a Qtek 9090 on Orange (very strange I know). My ROM Version is 1.40.00 WWE and ExtROM version is 1.40.147 WWE. Now I have been informed that I require a rom upgrade to use blackberry connect however nobody will allow me to use their rom updates!

When I try to register on the Qtek site, it tells me that my IMEI number is not a valid Qtek phone - I am perplexed as to how their branding landed up on my device and box then! Orange won't allow me to download it for the same reason and they won't even provide me with support for this phone - even though a dealer sold it to me on this package (ie 9090 on Orange contract). The dealer was online and provides no support of this type and keeps referring me to Orange, who refer me to Qtek, who won't accept my phone as one of their's!

I am relatively new to this all but please can somebody help me in this respect - what is the best step forward for me?

If yes, how good or bad does your experience with it? Does it feel like glass? How easy it scratches? And of course, is it really oleophobic, or it's a lie?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] Leong428:
I had it and eventually asked for a refund. The fit and finish is great, but the oleophobic coating isn't so good as it's quite hard to wipe fingerprints off. I would also say it feels more like plastic than glass and has little tiny scratches (from sand/dust) after only 2 weeks of using it.

[Android General] lolodroid9:
Hi

If this is the wrong place to ask, please do let me know. I have no persmission to post anywhere else on the website - let alone the dev section :(

I am looking for some information on how HTC implements their NAND-write protection. The reason I ask is because I have an android device which I can temp root using a known exploit. Since the bootloader is locked, changes to the system partition do not persist after reboot. However, with temp root, I can insmod arbitrary kernel modules into the kernel. Assuming a module can fiddle arbitrarily with the kernel code, is therotically possible to bypass the NAND-protection this way? Is the check performed in kernel? if not, how is the protection implemented and where is it enforced? at the flash controller level?

[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] kopko:
Hello dear forum users.

So i today my friend gave me Xperia J with words that it doesnt boot and he dont know how to fix it. Since i already worked with some Xperia phones, i told him i will try to fix it.

So far, no luck.

Important things i dont really know: what rom was there, if BL is unlocked or not etc.

I have tried Flashtool as 1st.

I installed all the drivers, downloaded device list via git etc. Flashtool recognizes the phone, but as i try to flash it, i get error with loader.sin. I did some research and i have read it has something to do with the bootloader. So tried to unlock it again - no luck, same error. I always get stuck at that loader.sin error.

So I decided to give a try to PC Companion, but in the middle of repair it says error 100, and will not continue.

So far as i know, SUS doesnt support Xperia J, so its out of play.

Guys, any advices on my problem? It looks like the only way to do something is trough Flashtool but i didnt have luck yet. Any help? :confused:

thankyou
