Fourth rom on my 3 day old G2 and i was getting a little down to be honest. At least until i flashed this baby. I also have a Vibrant and have been on that forum for quite a while. I have to say that this is absolutely one of the most professional and overall fantastic looking roms ive ever seen. And that opinion is taking into account any one of the other two forums im on for other phones i have. You've paid attention to every detail without ruining a device with too much useless junk. Fantastic work.....you've officially got one more follower. Thanks for your obvious hard work!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Lokosis:
I just flashed v1.0.1 with Rom Manager. Now I'm stuck on a "Loading..." screen in Sense and can't do anything of value. Any suggestions?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] denich:
Yes i have this. When I add the Photolbum widget the screen is blac, and all.. This is very unstable ROM with much errors :( Still have a long time homescreen drawing. How to fix?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] marka2k:
Did you wipe and factory reset? If not go back into recovery and wipe you may have to reflash.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blast0id:
if you came from any other version of rom, other than the 1.85.73.2 BASE (orange rom), then you need to go into recovery and WIPE DATA/FACTORY RESET. If you don't want to lose all your info, you can use titanium backup to backup program data, but DO NOT restore anything that has red text!

same as above please.

I don't think that these files are too terribly specific to the radio, this was more of a test of theory, than it is a "fix"... if it DOES fix the problem, then maybe we need to look into it more... as far as my file, all it does is copy the libs from the 1.85.861.2 ROM from which the 26.06.02.27 radio came from, nothing else is replaced or included.

all DZ/G2 radio's are "universal," they work with either device, they may not work as well in every country though... that will be the difference... "usually" the radio from your particular region will be your best bet, but sometimes "newer" radios also work just as well, but also have "tweaks" in them that may show better results, sometimes the "tweaks" can be detrimental to battery, and sometimes they can be complimentary to battery... usually though, they don't effect battery much if at all.

search this forum for "returnFRAMEWORKtoStock" (no quote, no spaces) =)

which version of power notification widgets did you install? the ones I posted, do not include any framework mods, other than the widgets... so it WILL remove the battery%... so either you flashed the wrong file, or you flashed a UOT kitchen file over top which brought back battery %...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
The Return stock to framework thing actually made my phone bootloop so it didn't work for me. And can you repost the one you posted of the power notifications? I'm pretty sure I had yours but I installed the one from rom manager/virtuous/modifications.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] :
I have a couple problems with Virtuous (Which I had no problem with .95) Is there any way I could change "3G+" to H?

How do I change the dock bar short cuts?

Also I don't think virtuous buddy is working correctly because when I try to go into the extensions of Settlings and Toggles it just shows a blank list.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bstylz911:
3g+ is H.....
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
Incredible. My display uses more than 50 percent of battery.. with the brightness all the way down. Even past that when I used screen filter to make it lower. But after 9 hours off the charger went down to about 50 percent. Getting better.

Does anyone have any idea to make my phone read Arabic fonts / language ?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lowreeds:
Didnt work for me :(
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blast0id:
did you wipe dalvik? my original zips I forgot to include this in the updater-script, so if you didn't do it manually, you probably would have gotten a bootloop, but the newer ones should have wiped dalvik automatically without the need to do it manually...

I just downloaded the untouched orange rom again... I will rebuild the framework zip one more time, just to be sure it is 100% correct...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] geova87:
I know you'll probably send me to the search box but this thread has gotten bigger and bigger.... how can I make my .com key actually write dot coms instead of acting like a tab?

either one of these should remove battery percentage...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bstylz911:
Recently I am having random reboot...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bstylz911:
These don't work. I get a boot loop.

And yes I cleared the delvik.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] :
Yes I am well aware, although it's a look thing
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blast0id:
you just tried them? or you tried them when i first posted them? these are updated links... just trying to be as clear as possible here so we can move forward...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lainvalenajr:
Lol Virtuous is my only sense rom... What would be cool is sense theme like in the disire hd.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bstylz911:
yes i tried your old ones and your updated ones..

just puts me to loop boot.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] thedauntlessone:
This is also happening to me. It also sometimes load up a menu out of nowhere. Anyway to fix this?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blast0id:
the fix is to use vanilla messaging app. I use the one from here.

to install:

1. download the vanilla mms apk

2. rename it to com.android.mms.apk

3. place it on sdcard

4. open terminal emulator

5. type the code below

su
mount -o remount, rw /system
mv /system/app/com.android.mms.apk /system/app/com.android.mms.bk
cp /sdcard/com.android.mms.apk /system/app/

now reboot and you should be golden... saves me SOOO much headache... there is a direct link to this mms.apk in my signature if you don't want to goto the above linked thread...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Carphedon:
I would like this to, fixes the mapping problems in emulators like snesoid as well.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Ninj:
99% of posts here, starting with "This rom is amazing" contains a complaint, so I just wanted to share my experience:

This ROM is amazing, thank you rmk and devil, but also the other helpers here. I have no problem at all (1.0.1, adv kern, power control patch), and i love every single bit of it. This is just great :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] olobex:
Sudden reboot

I had a sudden reboot today while I was on the phone.

Battery was fully charged, right off the plug.

I think, this was the second time, I had this sudden reboot, since 1.0.0/1 is out.

Not a problem so far, just to let people know.

BTW Almost no black screen on wake up any more. Maybe once or twice since 1.0.0/1 is out.

I am on Virtuous 1.0.1, Advanced Kernel 2.1.1, CPU Tuner, OC 1402Mhz, Radio 26.06.02.27.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blast0id:
random reboots are not ROM related, they are OC related, try backing down to 1296Mhz and see if you ever get another one... just because these phones CAN overclock to a certain number, doesn't mean every single one will be able to handle that number all day long everyday... while I'm not going to assume anything, I will just say, to think so would be awfully naive.

any and all "random" (ie: unreproducible) will be blamed on overclocking, unless they are happening to you at stock speeds... if they were, I would almost have to see video evidence of it to even believe it, as I have never heard of a single random issue @ stock speeds... bottom line, if you think you have random issues, you need to run stock htc kernel for a week, and report back then.

http://files.virtuousrom.com/vision/kernels/virtuous/2.x/ -- the HTC one is the one included.

this has been covered in this thread before, but this thread really isn't the place for it, as it is not ROM specific, there is a Vision key remap thread, please read the info there and post there if you can't seem to figure it out. It IS possible though and I believe some have done it =) In the meantime I will look into making a flashable zip that will revert this to "stock" for those who would find it useful...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Ninj:
@olobex:

Reboots could definitely come from the frequency. 1.4Ghz is nearly twice the stock speed wanted by HTC, it's probably not saving your CPU life and may lead to operation errors, which usually break the instructions flow, thus hanging, or rebooting the phone.

Try running at 1.1Ghz for a couple of days and see if it still happens, won't hurt ;)

Edit: oops, benjamminzIS you are too fast, as always ;)

Edit 2: BTW, the right thread for OC related questions is here:

Got my Desire Z a few days ago, installed Virtuous 1.0.1 and i think is a great rom

But, i have a few problems too, one that is really annoying occurs when i setup my hotmail/live exchange account. I can add the account without problems but when i receive an email there is no way to stop the notification, is like i'm receiving the same email again and again and again, the phone vibrate and sounds and does not stop even if I delete the message, it appears again in seconds.

With Improved Email this not happen, but I think is good to report this issue (i searched before here but not found related info)

I don't have time to search it for you -- but it is in this thread :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
This rom is bi polar. Its now giving he bad battery life. :/
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blast0id:
I'm downloading the stock OTA rom as we speek... will build a flashable zip as soon as it is comlete...

did you just flash a kernel or anything that would have upset battery stats, or the ability to properly read them?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blast0id:
sorry, wasn't trying to steal your thunder my friend... =) glad there are others trying to help as well =)

sidenote: stock OTA rom almost finished... stock keyboard mapping zip coming up...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Gooler:
Thank you rmk40, evil D and everyone else involved in this rom. It's great :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] burtcom:
You haven't add any new apps? Turned on anything that might be poling the network? Moved to a location farther from a tower?

Folks, battery life is highly subjective, and depends on a LOT of factors. It is unfair to blame it on a ROM.

If it bothers you, get a new battery with more capacity.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] NeverGone\RU:
oops, sorry.

delete this
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] GunToYoMouth123:
Is it just me, or does virtuous 1.0.0 is more smoother and perfect battery life than others?

even better than 1.0.1

I had to come back to 1.0.1 cause i noticed it was a bit less smooth.

to notice the difference, all you have to do is slide the key board up and see how long does it take for the "clock widget" and the "shortcuts" apear and slide it back down.

3 times or more if you want.

tried it with most sense roms and 1.0.0 is the fastest.

it responds the best.

just saying.

keep up the good work though .
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] 2010ngojo:
Several questions:

1. How can I assign the right custom shortcut key on the keyboard on v1.0.1? It keeps on resetting it to being unassigned. I can assign the other two keys just fine.

2. Whats with the icon to the right of the phone icon on the homescreens? I don't know how the thing works...

3. Will there be a fix/update for the bluetooth? I really want to use my wiimote. Or is there already a fix?

4. Is there anyway to adjust the vibration intensity/ haptic feedback?

5. And lastly, is there any way to change the lockscreen to that of stock vanilla android, or are there any alternatives that won't get interfere with the sense launcher? I want an easier way to put my phone in silent/vibrate mode and without actually unlocking my phone.

I'm on v1.0.1 and would greatly appreciated if the solutions would work in this version that I'm using.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jmwils3:
I dont have all these answers, but I do have a couple:

2. That icon is a programmable key that is assigned using the preinstalled launchkey app. it allows you to attach a specific program, setting, or menu to that key, instead of just personalize

5. yes, you can change to the default android lockscreen without damaging the sense launcher at all. simply use a root-enabled file manager, go into /system/app, and delete the htclockscreen.apk (or something like that). this will revert your lockscreen to the default android lock.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] 2010ngojo:
Thank you for the quick reply(really quick). Now I need to find the answers for the other qustions....

Has anyone successfully connect a wiimote to his/her G2 with this rom? Or with stock android?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] karlonicolas:
There is a separate thread for kernels. The stock kernel is included in the rom but there are two other kernels the standard kernel and advanced kernel. All can be downloaded in the kernel thread, or if you want i can post a link later.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] NXUS:
Yaaa this has happened to me too with other virtuous roms. Not sure its rom related, maybe a bug in email app. The issue I have right now is that email app wont refresh email. I get notifications (2 unread hotmail emails) and when I go to the app it wont show them. :S

Wow benjamizIS, I didn't know that you are also active in this forum as well. I just finally got the desire z (jumped from the AT&T Fuze where I was using NRG's awesome ROM) and now I see you here. Good to know that there will be such an awesome user from the old forum here!

And, I stand corrected. You do not need premium rom manager to download virtuous. So, grab it now.

Thanks for v0.7.0

Thanks rmk and evil D. I see that the ROM is now overclocked!!! Hurray.

Can you post the release notes please.

One pet-peeve I seem to have is with the Flipping clock widget, why does it always start with the wrong hour and minute windows and then flip to the correct one. Is it as how HTC has designed it or just a bug?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mt3g:
its how it is supposed to be

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Ties0:
Wow, really want to flash this new version, but putting swype.apk and cm's Mms.apk in all over again is a turn off.. Thanks for the good work though!

(Unless there's a way for me to upgrade without deleting everything?:D)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Reignzone:
I really appreciate your contribution to the community, however... I am waiting to see where this project goes. I'm pretty content with Cyanogen's work for now, but I'm eager to give this latest build from you & Evil a shot.

That change log is promising... :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Stryder5:
With the update, is the ROM overclocked by default now? Or do we still have to enable it manually upon each bootup?

Also, are all apps that we install from the market located in /data/app and only stock/default apps installed in /system/app?

The ROM was jittery on 0.6.1 for me and I don't know why, but with the changelog, I'll try it out again. Looks pretty promising!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rmk40:
The kernel is overclockable but the default frequency is still 800mhz. In other words, install the ROM, use SetCPU to decide how much to overclock and you are done.

Yes, anything you install is in /data/app.

Agree it was not as "smooth" as we thought it should be. The new kernel really made a difference. If you're not sure, just grab the kernel with none of the other changes in ROM Manager to see for yourself.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ccb04:
Does the built in hotspot work in this rom? It's the only reason why im stuck on stock rom with bacon bits. Waiting for a rom that has everything working..And is there also a way to add swype?

According to the changelog, it is ;)

Hows battery life for this rom?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mike96789:
Just flashed this rom and it seems pretty good. Noticed that it is a little smoother. The OC options are awesome, now you have more choices. Just tested the GPS in my apartment and had a fast lock with good accuracy since i was in a building, still need to test it with navigation or something. Its late here so i could not test the wifi calling or hotspot, probably try tomorrow. Great work devs, keep up the good!

I still have the same problems with this rom...on first boot everything works like a charm...once i reboot, maps cant find me and 3g icon stays stuck on 3g. Sooooo weird i dont get it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Phawkes:
There are a bunch of post that explain why you see the 3G instead of H now... that should really be added to the first page, cause people keep asking about it without end.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] the orange bandit:
Nice changelog, looks like you guys did some good work.

If I'm running v0.6.1, do I need to wipe everything and install from scratch, or can I just install v0.7.0 as an upgrade? I didn't see any instructions in the OP.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ShanksG1:
i believe you just do a upgrade he kinda mentioned it upgrading on the first page. my mms isnt sending but i recieved two pics last night and they where blurry as hell, no bluetooth tethering, 3g stays no H, cant OC, and mms issue.

but the new release has came out ima try and see how that works i hope they fixed the issues ppl have been complaining about so the install is good from the start.

I still have two copies of my OEM stock rom so if its still not stable and fixed ill come back when its better with less to none issues.

i do understand this is a work in progess TY guess for a job well done you have over stepped the bounds on this one.

Is there a way to change the domain key from "TAB" back to default. The TAB function doesn't work they way I thought it would. i.e. moves from one text box to another or highlighting one text to another. I would rather have the domain function instead.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] 2010ngojo:
What file manager can I use? I tried root explorer and that didn't work. Said the file is read-only, can't delete.

Btw, what version of Swype does this rom have? Is it the latest? If not, what is the lastest version of Swype? Latest for G2/ screen resolution?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dreality:
On root explorer towards the top there should be a button u can press that says mount or something like that, after you click on that it will allow you to make the change
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blast0id:
1. I am not sure, but there is a Keymap/remap thread in this forum that may be helpful to you... try there... I use a custom keymap from that thread, and it sticks, no resetting here... so that might be the answer for you.

3. I am in the same boat as you... wiimote and most bt keyboards are HID profile, and HTC's BT Stack is officially EFFED... I can pair my kb but never connects... everything else seems to work though... my suggestion is to keep an eye on "unCoRrUpTeD's" dual boot thread in the general android developement forum... once that is ready and working fully, you will be able to dual boot this rom and a CM or other AOSP rom that doesn't have the HID bluetooth issue... that is the only fix I am aware of at the moment, is to run a different rom... SENSE roms BT stack are screwed... until HTC decides to fix it... =( or some other wonderful dev who I would generously donate to if they got it working on a sense rom =)

4. not that I'm aware of... maybe an app is available... but I haven't searched yet...

5. you can delete com.htc.lockscreen.apk and install the worldclock.apk from my signature to get vanilla lockscreen on sense, that is my setup at the moment =) PM me if you need more specific instructions, or check out the replace stock mms with vanilla mms thread for instructions on how to do that... or search this thread for "mount -o remount, rw /system" =)

Oh boy are you going to LOVE this device =) I'm sure you do already... such an upgrade from that phone it's unbelievable... good to see a familiar name around here as well! =)

rmk and I have both come to the conclusion that this most likely isn't possible on sense rom without somehow modifying the framework...

you need to make sure you mount /system or /data as R/W... otherwise you will continue to get that error... as far as swype, there is an open beta available...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dreality:
When you change the lockscreen make you sure you change to the stock clock too because if you use the sense alarm clock and the screen is lock with the vanilla lockscreen then you don't have the option to silence the alarm, the only way to turn it off is by powercycling your phone. So the only fix I know is to replace the sense clock apk with the vanilla clock apk. Unless someone knows another way?

But i can remap the key with the ButtonRemapper app, why would it not be possible to change without modifying the framework?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jmwils3:
I use root explorer myself, but you have to set the folder as r/w, not the r/o that it is by default, using the button at the top of the folder screen.

As for the swype version, Im not really certain, but if it isnt the newest available, then the latest can be obtained by signing up for the swype beta on their website.
