This is fantastic. I've been using this for over 24 hours now and it's just marvelous!!

I must have JUST installed it right before the new kernel release though. Was there a changelog anywhere? I'm still getting acquainted to this project and will promise to ask as few newb questions as possible.

Also, am I able to remove WiFi Calling? I've frozen it in Titanium but it keeps running and I know from previous experiences that some things shouldn't be uninstalled. I don't want to spend another sleepless night because I become too overzealous and deleted things that shouldn't be touched. Cheers!

I came this close to installing the 1.72 OTA stock ROM for D-Z, then saw on these august forums that that would zap my root -- so I took the plunge and installed Virtuous instead -- Great ROM :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] the orange bandit:
Could be me, but I noticed a speed difference from 800 to 1.2, enough to overclock. With mine set to 1.2 and a few low battery profiles, I get awesome battery life. I took the phone off the charger at 7a, it's 840p and I'm at 32%. That's with wifi running all day, tweetdeck, gmail, and about an hour of phone calls.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Mardenator:
how do i apply the patch? backup and flash from recovery?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Herrera91:
Correct. You don't really need to make a backup since the patch doesn't erase anything, but better safe than sorry.

Hmm... wake from black screen doesn't seem as stable as on older Kernels
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Stealth1985:
Just flashed to this, so far so good. What Kernel seems to be the most stable and how do I go about updating this?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] WorldIRC:
Not sure which is most stable or offers best battery, but just move the zip to your SD and flash with Clockwork just like you did the ROM.

Sorry to be annoying and ask the same question, but can the Wifi Calling be removed or will it break anything?

Is anyone else having data issues lately? I have a coworker who also has a G2, but it's not rooted or anything, and he's getting EDGE/3G (our office is notorious for switching between the two on T-Mobile), but I can't get anything. I've rebooted, and haven't made any changes to my phone, other than updating Handcent last night. WiFi works fine.

Nevermind, turns out my bill is past due. AT&T let me go a month or so, guess T-Mobile's more strict.

.....1) When I text, while typing (physical keyboard) my text archive randomly scrolls up and down. It's annoying because I have to scroll down again to continue typing my text on the textbox.......

I get the same (on the stock rom) so I suspect its a HTC bug somewhere.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Herrera91:
You sure can. Just go into recovery and flash the kernel the same way you would flash a ROM.

I had the same problem before, which is why I had to switch the HTC app with the Vanilla app and everything worked out fine after that. If you want to install the Vanilla app as well, here's the guide to do so: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=9324587&postcount=1

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] PatrickHuey:
ive never had any problems sending or recieving the messages, but i did have a problem with blurry messages. i flashed 0.8.1 and then did a facotry reset and that seem to fix it. though, they still are not as clear as id liked. did you try to clear cache, dalvik cache and a facotry reset? thats what i would try to do.

Did you wipe data?

And, that's alot of room still. Any reason why you're worried?

Yes I wiped data I am not worried i was just wondering why there was a difference, between the this rom and the RUU in terms of internal memory after install.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] #TeamAndroid:
Yea I think it is a HTC bug, because it happened to me, so I replaced it with the CM6 messeging app, I read about someone doing it a little earlier in the thread, and I have no problems now, glad I did cuz the HTC sense one was gettin on my nerves with that scrolling when trying to text, hated that.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bitter1:
This is somewhat esoteric, but with traveling I noticed that in Airplane mode that the wi-fi on doesn't hold onto a wireless connection at all.

Other phones are connecting around me as well as my PC, but the phone connects. . .disconnects, on/off making it unusable.

Bug maybe? Android 2.2 has it built-in where you can run Wi-Fi with the radio off.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] PatrickHuey:
Let my know how it goes
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] smoochiezz24:
Just flashed the newest kernel. My phone was always fast but now it it blazing. That's with no OC, I personally don't see the point of overclocking anyways. Apps open in an instant. I mean really, there is no competition for this ROM! I don't see how people can go without all the great apps and integration Sense has to offer. Its all a matter of preference and I prefer the best. Thank u so much devs 4 the hard work!

what can be expected in future updates? i dont see how it could get better honestly.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bongd:
What's the screen wake up bug? My screen occasionally wakes up if that's what you're referring to. Other than that, it's amazing.

I'm going to update to the latest kernel and will report back at a later time. Once again, so pleased with this project!

*** EDIT ***

Holy ****!! It's going to much faster. I've just been using it for a few minutes now but it's screaming. I just OC to 1.2MHz and use conservative governor, but even at 800MHz it's still screaming along. Great work!!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] android602:
Holly crap..it is true this new kernel 1.0.5 is a big battery saver..since 7am iv been using the phone..calls, text, web browsing , and I use it kinda heavy through out the day..it is almost 11pm and my battery is at 46%..usually I have to charge my phone by the middle of the day..I have to carry my charger with me..but wow that's all I gotta say..thank you guys..rmk40 you were right big battery saver

thanks!

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rmk40:
Really interesting reading all the observations. The Virtuous 1.0.5 kernel uses stock voltages to reduce or eliminate the black screens, where Pershoot remains undervolted. So I'm actually surprised with the reports.

All our kernels are here:

http://files.virtuousrom.com/vision/kernels/

Obviously flashing anything outside of what we're providing in ROM Manager means you should be willing to experiment, so do so at your own risk. But you're certainly welcome to any of it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] PatrickHuey:
its funny because i keep trying and trying to use cyanogen, and themes and such. but there literally is nothing as beautiful was htc sense. GOOD GOD. now im just deciding if i should use my launcher pro plus or not..
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] chchia:
rmk, would you mind to provide a undervolt version on vision_kernal?

i am getting the device running kind of hot with 1.0.5.

while pershoot do not have smartass governor, so i prefer to use vision_kernal.

thank you.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bocki:
first of all, thanks for the rom - i just recently upgraded from a g1 to the desire z and sense is a whole new world for me :)

i've got a very weird issue though: after every reboot, the first time i try to open the market, my 3g connection drops ("h" icon vanishing from the status bar for a couple of seconds).

i seem to not be the only one (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=9960483&postcount=2049) - any ideas on how to solve our small issue?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] awryter:
I have the same problem, but I'm running CM 6.1.1. I also had the problem on Virtuous, and it was one of the reasons I switched back to CM. Now my feeling is that it is my carrier, but I'm not sure. Where are you located and what carrier are you running it on?

I'm on WIND in Canada.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] more2come:
I'm testing the new Kernel (1.0.5) at the moment. First tests show that smartass Gov really blows when it comes to benchmarking, score in Quadrant dropped by 250 points... Ondemand and interactive on the other hand provide improvements of about 300 points, I get about 2600@1.49 GHz .

Black screen issue ssems to be gone, further testing will show. Second most important thing is battery life, going to completely charge it and see!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] abrakadabra_srb:
Hm I just flashed kernel v1.0.5 and I dont see smartass gov in the list?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bocki:
I'm on 3 in Austria, but I don't think it's the operator, I suspect it might be the new market instead... got no proof for that yet, though ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] more2come:
Try to reflash the kernel, do't forget to wipe your caches. After reboot, let SetCPU detect your clock speeds again.

After that, smartass should be available.

At the moment I have slight issues with smartass. Lower performance and lesser stability. Interactive works best for me right now. Just need to see how good battery life is.

Hi,

I am using v0.8.1 rom on my G2. I have an edge mobile connection.

After the phone is idle for some time my gmail and internet application cannot connect to internet while weather and location appliaction work fine and can connect with the internet and update.

After i reboot the phone everything + gmail and internet appliaction works fine... again when i wake up my phone after some time they stop working again and connect sync or update...

Any idea what could be triggering this ???

Here's a suggestion for a future update: what about an Incognito Window option for the browser. I tend to think of myself as a private person and this would be handy in case someone else manages to take over my phone.

New kernel is AWESOME! Never ran so smooth before! Few quirks here and here, but other than that its awesome!!!

*Quirks - Lock device, try to wake up, get a black screen. It is solved by trying until it unlocks. Random mini lags that don't bother much.

Has anyone been able to get Swype working on this rom? I've tried everything and can't figure it out. The G2 is licensed for the software, but when installed with the swype lib it comes up as a keyboard with limited capabilities. You can punch the keys, but not swype along... It says that this version of swype is not compatible. Anyone have a fix? Please pm me.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Phawkes:
The reason your wife's phone says H is because stock will show that for 3G/HSPA/HSPA+ speeds. I read that straight out the manual for the G2 yesterday. Our lovely rom actually tells us the truth about whether or not we are actually on the HSPA network. I wouldn't have any concerns if I were you.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] gjm777:
That's good to know then because im in love with this rom. Either way its mostly at home that it would display in H, and I can just hop on wireless regardless.

What are the differences between pershoot 1.2 and vision 1.0.5?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mrbmg:
The 1.0.5 is real snappy with no profiles and set to 1.2ghz on setcpu. It for sure has an wake issue.

Billy
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sonofabit:
Agreed. It's fast, and the battery life is great on it as I've said in previous posts (>48 hours!). However, for the first time on any of the kernels, I am experiencing wake issues.

I'm at 1.2Ghz, with a 368Max, 245min screen off profile. I'm using OnDemand scaling.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bongd:
Man, it's really kicking ass. I was waiting for a ride after work and cranked out some Zenonia 2 and streaming media using VLC Stream and Convert and my battery is doing lovely.

That wake screen issue... what do you guys mean by that? My screen keeps waking up on it's own occasionally and seems to be syncing. Also regarding WiFi Calling, I uninstalled that and Kineto kept crashing causing me to have to restore everything. No biggy though, I'm used to doing backups and don't feel afraid to be ballsy anymore. If I didn't back up, it was my own darn fault :)

PS. Could you brothas please share your SetCPU profiles? It'd be greatly appreciated. I don't know if more life could be squeezed out of mine but I'd like to see them for the sake of curiosity please. Cheers!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mrbmg:
Went down to 1ghz and not seeing the wake issues anymore. (On the 1.0.5 kernel)

Also got the vanilla mms and it's ten times better.

Been playing pretty hard so I can't really do an accurate battery results.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Baba1472:
Wake Issue Cause (maybe)

For anyone with the wake issue, I've noticed that when I used the smartass governor, I had the wake issue. After changing to the onDemand governor, I don't have it anymore. Not sure if the onDemand fixed it or if smartass caused it but mine works fine now (just a tiny lag between pressing the button and screen turning on)

As someone said earlier, they got 48hrs of battery without charging with only a screen off profile of 369-245 and normal OC of 1.2Ghz on onDemand so I hope my battery does well with onDemand also.
