Get More HTC Widgets:

Tested, ran commands through adb. Didn't work, still showing "Unable to download widgets. Tap to try again."

Tested, and still unable to download widgets.

Logcat output follows from a tap on this screen:

Either, judging from this, HTC matches the IMEI's to known Sense-type devices, or it's connecting to a beta server which doesn't exist anymore or something.

More HTC Widgets isn't that important to me, though it would be nice.

Call Lag:

Getting SetCPU now, will report in a moment as I finish my replies.

Update: Settings are set.

It seems to work quite well, though I noticed my use of Google Voice as a primary number a contributing factor, as calls arrive 1-3 rings later though GV. Could this explain some reports of call lag (mine included, tbh)? I never tested that before now.

Battery Life:

I don't have any task managers or memory managers installed. I know well enough from WinMo what snake oil these things are sometimes.

The only thing that has a process manager is ASTRO, and I only use it for file browsing/managing.

I am however becoming more conservative of the 2G/3G connections and WiFi, and it seems to help in small amounts. I also killed off daemonic and backgroundly apps like Missed Call and set everything to refresh in slower intervals, except Google Voice and email. This seems to help slightly.

Note: Live Wallpapers. Don't use them if you value battery life. They run 98% CPU when your phone is asleep, and the display is dim, even when you're not using a compatible launcher (Legend's Rosie). I killed the process, made quite a difference on heat consumption.

Output from 'top', after sleeping for 5 minutes follows, I think I may have found a culprit...

So much for Live Wallpapers on Sense. Oh well :rolleyes:

As for the HeroLED problem I noted in my first post, it seems to work and turn green on missed call notifs.

So in short, LED's work, Battery's improving, Calls are better, and GMHTCW is failing to see more widgets available.

And by the way, not to derail the convo or anything, just a few points of opinion:

I may cross to Vega's if I get bored with this, to be honest. Really I think my whole illusion of slowness on some roms more than others might be because my sdcard might be failing, and the smart-placement write-leveling algorithms can't keep pace with such a dirty sdcard. I often see mmcqd spike on writes and reads and junk. Perhaps a zero-wipe of the SD card will make it last a few thousand more write cycles?

It may kill the server performance-wise, but XDA-Developers really needs a single-page mode, for people like me, who have a life outside of reading threads. Or, there should be a way to sticky/"star" certain posts within threads, if they contain important information about the thread topic such as necessary patches that help the usability of the ROM. All for a more streamlined experience.

By the way, I did make a cursory glance over the thread. I made the post for those (myself included) who didn't and/or couldn't find all the necessary fixes among the 9000+ posts combined to the Legend roms.

Bluetooth has been an issue on Hero/Sense ROMS since the Hero Cupcake Beta. I've detached myself from the need for bluetooth headphones with my sweater that has headphones sewn into the pullstrings on the hood. Genius, or genius? Got it at K-mart. :D

Anyway, it's almost 5 AM, and I think I replied to what I had to. I'll check out Vega Legend and its fixes. So far I'm satisfied with the Legend builds. Keep up the good work, devs! :cool:

Good morning to all, good night to me! :D
