Fantastic. Trust Me, i love this build. the best sense i've ever ran on an android device. hell this is a port and its better than my espresso stock. ive been messing around with a few tweaks with setcpu and other cpu tweaks but honestly it doesn't even seem like setting profiles do much at all. Im pretty shure it overclocks, but when it comes to lets say having screen on to 245/245, it doesn't seem as if its working. And that was with the stock and advanced kernel. Unless the vision is capable of overclocking back to 1ghz the second the screen turns on then i'm wrong. But besides that, this is flawless.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] moonmanxo:
Is it possible at all to make your own theme for this rom? Without the need of lets say Launcher Pro or ADW EX.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bigmoew:
Yep, I have the same issue. Started about a week ago, but then new texts starting 2 or 3 days ago were working as normal.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Tomb77:
Why would someone go to cm if they are having battery issues here. Go back to virtuous 0.8.1 with a custom kernal and wait until the issue is fixed. Unless I'm missing something???
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Tomb77:
Did you link them?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rmk40:
After a discussion with Evil, we've decided the next release will be 0.9.5. The idea is to get this new build (1.83) out to you guys quickly, while we continue to work on Virtuous 1.0.0.

No promises on exactly when, 0.9.5 will be very soon (days).
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] philippecr:
Ok, i've just done flashing this ROM to my DZ. Want to restore all my apps using Titanium Backup....

and to my horror... it restored all my apps on my internal memory... -.-" I thought Titanium Backup should place it back on where it is? anyway to move it all to the SD card?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bongd:
Thanks, rmk. I too have noticed a subtle decline in the battery power too. I had a slight inclination that it may be from some of the latest updates but wasn't sure if it was a trend. Android apps and modifications can change the landscape of one device from an other so drastically! :D

I hope you're able to find some leads without needing to wrack your collective minds too much! Any improvements and bug squashing would compliment this project nicely. Recommended to a couple friends at work who are now huge fans as well.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] :
I just switched back to the virtuous modified stock kernel. My battery life is pretty good (dropping ~7% per hour of constant use), and I sort of get the feeling that overclock is unnecessary.

Anyway, I spent a couple of days on MIUI and I liked it, but it's weird cuz it was noticeably slower (still quick tho) than virtuous and everyone is hailing miui as so fast. Virtuous without overclock is faster than miui at 1.5 ghz running pretty much the same set of apps.

I've actually notice that Virtuous doesn't seem to lag at all for me. All the great features of sense and fast! Cheers again to rmk and evil d!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Sh0rty007:
someone knows what is the best kernel to use with this ROM?

trying Pershoot v1.3 now....
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] CeasarRAPH100:
Got the best impressions so far from the one you're trying "pershoot v1.3", battery life is very good,I get over 48hours with light usage.

Not a single issue to far, been using it for a week now.

Using overclock widget with screen-off profile "min245760=>max460800" as mentioned earlier in this thread, not a single wake lock yet.

I also use ondemand Governor with max 1500000.

Have to say this ROM is simply solid.

Great work devs.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rmk40:
Starting today (1/30) we're going to start making test builds of the ROM, kernels, etc available in the IRC channel exclusively. The links made available via the channel will not be published on the forums. This is to encourage real time participation in the project. It's just the quickest way to be able to get releases tested and available to you guys.

So, if you're interested,

hop on the Freenode IRC network and join the #virtuousrom channel

. Even if there's no activity in the channel, just stick around and you'll be the first to find out about anything we're working on.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bigmoew:
Hmm, does that mean 0.9.5 will be a no-wipe update?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rmk40:
Yeah this one will be up to you guys. I've been running fine without a wipe.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bongd:
Sweet! Can't wait!!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] LooieENG:
Does this support overclocking?

It says in the second post, that two kernels are provided. both are OC'd

If I have stock, and flashed the Virtuoso ROM, will it be overclocked, and if I go back to my old stock Nandroid backup, will it still be OC'd?

I have the feeling you need to flash kernels seperately but I'm not sure, and I don't want to buy SetCPU to check as I have no intentions to OC my phone
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] phantomdroid:
my screen all of a sudden went black and wont come on... i mean the bottom lights turn on but the screen wont. not even on a battery pull... any help
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] phantomdroid:
my screen is like permanent black... but the phone is on... i didnt flash anything it just happen out of no where
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mrbmg:
Your best bet with tis ROM is to d/l it and keep it with the standard kernel which is oc to 998mhz or something like that. To go any higher you will have to get the advanced kernel and oc yourself using cputuner (which is free). Virtuous is extremely zippy as is, no need for a huge oc.

If you have a nandroid of your stock ROM the kernels that are in other ROMs will not stick when you restore.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] collins521:
So does this mean that update won't be posted on here? Just the updates right and then the final update will be posted here?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Herrera91:
No, he just refers to early access to new builds of the ROM, like beta testing before the final version comes out.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Noirlecroi:
Once again, props to the devs...i don't know if I got lucky but any problems have been minor. On .9 ive run games, audible, used the hotspot..

So any noobs following the thread, flash away!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] collins521:
Ok cool...figured that was the case but just wanted to make sure.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] marka2k:
I am also experiencing bluetooth issues, bluetooth will connect then disconnect at random times or audio will not transfer to the headset. I have experienced issues with a Plantronics a Motorola and the uConnect system in my Jeep. Otherwise no issues with the ROM
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blast0id:
can anyone recommend an irc client that works with freenode for our phones? I tried YAAIC and I keep getting this message while trying to connect "you need to identify via SASL to use this server" "ERROR: Closing Link: xxxxx36d0.tmodns.net (SASL access only)"

would be nice to be able to check for the incremental updates via phone =)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] joshlusignan:
Think some are using AndroIRC from the market, haven't tried it myself just some on IRC reporting that it works.

AndroIRC works great. Hadn't ever heard of it (or thought to look for an Android IRC client until tonight), but I'm signed into it now.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] TheShoura:
Several questions before I jump to this ROM from CM7 based..

I want my .com button, I don't care for it being as TAB.. is this possible

is it possible to integrate some CM7 settings? (Render effect, and the Notification bar widgets are the biggest ones I want)

I disabled the "Slide to unlock" and use MENU to unlock instead, can this ROM do the same?

has anyone tried changing LCD density with this ROM?

Thanks for any answers
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] PatrickHuey:
The dot com button only works for tab right now, but the devs said there is a fix being compiled. I know that the notification widgets can be implemented back in, its somewhere in this G2 dev forum, i dont think the render effect is available. I know that LCD density has been adjustment for some people, but i haven't changed it.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] hawkn:
Ok, I'm very satisfied with this rom, the best I've tried so far for the desire z, but I have a little problem, when my phone is sleeping.

When I try to wake it up the buttons light up but the screen doesn't, but if I push the pwr button again the screen shows me the "desktop" for a split second, and sometimes I have to push the powerbutton a few times to wake the screen

This also applies to incoming calls so I have to call back after waking the phone screen.

Anyone else experiensed this problem ?

Btw. yes, I'm running the advanced kernel.

And yes, I've tried restoring the phone to factory settings and still the same.

Btw. I've also got a regular Desire with Avarita HD 0.7 alpha rom, and I really like the HD look within menus and stuff, they aren't as big as usual, and I tried changing the build.prop on my desire z to get the same result, but no luck, they both have default lcd density of 240.

I guess this is something with the programming of the software ? HD or not HD as I bet Hamlet would say today :p

My hboot version is 0.85.0005 - is this ok for Visionary, or do I need to update to 0.92 as mentioned on the visionary website?

Also, if I need to upgrare hboot version, how do I go about doing so? Thanks.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] hawkn:
I just installed the engineering hboot from here

Then I could flash radio and I think sometimes it's better to have an older version that works for everything than having a newer version that is less user friendly for us flashers if you c what I mean...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] wifiguru:
This rom is SWEET.... and fast =)

Suggestion: Put battery percent in the battery icon. I hate having to guess what the battery is sitting at.

Thanks for your hard work!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Eclypz:
You're describing the "wake issue". There are many work arounds that seem to be a hit or miss, but the easiest way is to go back to the standard kernel.

Search this thread for more possible solutions.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bhairavp:
Thanks, but I'm a little new to this. Could you explain step by step how you got the hboot 0.92 on the Desire Z after flashing the hboot-eng?

Thanks again.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Tomb77:
There is a sort of theme that has this. Also other skins.

Its in a pimpmaneaton thread. On the OP.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] hawkn:
Be careful, if you are not 100% sure of what you are doing.

I noticed I lost ALL sound after doing this.

Everything else works perfect.

And there I ended up reformatting everything.

1. started recovery

2. CW backup.

3. fastboot radio flash

4. installed newest HBOOT i found 0.85.0005 (I hade the 0.84.xxxx engineering hboot)

5. formatted system, data, cache, devlog, app-cache and all other mounted partitions in recovery fstab.

6. reflashed virtuous rom 0.9.0

7. excited to see if I have sound now.....AND WE HAVE SOUND !!!! :-D :-D YEHAAW

8. conclusion (unconfirmed) install engineering hboot to flash radio, after that restore original hboot, you can use dd to backup the old hboot (I did not because of lack of know-how and time to read how-to).
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blast0id:
suggestion: search this thread for UOT
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Sh0rty007:
everytime i try to flash an UOT.zip, my phone won't start up again.... :(

ow and also my mail app doesn't work. only the gmail app works here...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blast0id:
when you build the zip, what framework-res.apk are you uploading? the one from the rom or the one from the power notification widget zip? if you have power notification widget installed you should be using it from that zip, otherwise use the one from rom. are you wiping dalvik BEFORE flashing the UOT zip?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blast0id:
if you have them installed, yes.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Sh0rty007:
well i did try that now, still doesn't work :mad::mad:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Sh0rty007:
it works now but i can only change the battery and the bootscreen.

not the statusbar or anything....
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blast0id:
did you modify the notification screen at all? if not, you need to and make sure where the carrier section is, the box is checked "power notification widgets installed" and you need to generate the image using the button at the bottom at least once... now make sure you clear dalvik cache BEFORE flashing the update zip...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] TheShoura:
Thanks

Question I have for the notification widgets is how do I implement it into this ROM? I really can't/wont switch without it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Sh0rty007:
Ah ok, gonna try that.

But what framework must i upload now for making another uot?

From the power widgets or from the last uot i flashed??
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jhr5474:
Is

There any chance of getting a port of this over to the nexus 1? I have this installed on my wifes phone and mms works. I am running sense superhybrid by micro mod on my n1 and have the apn settings exactly as my wifes is and still no MMS!:mad:

I need some help please!! I flashed to the advanced 1.0.9 kernel and my battery like is still very bad. I set profiles in CPU Tuner to match ones i seen around the forum and it's not really helping at all. I took my phone off the charger at 2:30pm to go to work and at 7:00pm i'm under 20% with no use since i took off the charger. Should i wipe the data?? i didn't do that when i flashed from Virtuous 7.0.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blast0id:
I think 0.8.1 is better bet for battery life... or you could log onto IRC and download the 0.9.5 beta2 (beta 3 may be ready soon) zip that is available there... I would post a link, but they have specifically asked not to do so, so just hop on freenode.net and goto the channel #virtuousrom the link is in the channel welcome message... they are working on the battery drain issue though, so hopefully it will be fixed soon...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] collins521:
That still seems like a rather large battery drain, I was typically going 10% every hour on the advanced kernal and 0.9.0 rom, I rolled back to 0.8.1 and installed the newest normal kernal and waiting for the newest update to roll out hopefully they will fix the battery drain
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Armani G:
I hope for the next release you guys can fix the youtube problem that lags the whole phone!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Kohr-Ah:
I am fortunate to have wonderful battery life life on 0.9. I have started using my phone at 530am and now it is 730pm and I am at 65 percent with standard use (medium use).

I use wifi and edge all day as I don't need to use 3g. Standard kernel.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] enserio:
That's awesome, I wonder how you do it. Out of all the Sense ROMs, I found Virtuous to be the best...great with its amount of options built in. My only issue was battery life. If I could get that figured out, I would switch between CM7 and Virtuous - two of the best G2 ROMs, imho.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Kohr-Ah:
I don't know. I don't sync facebook and twitter. Both are set to manual so I can update when I want. Edge does more than I need. I can use beejive and irc and everything with no issue. I use it over wifi for basic surfing. I love it :) I just need to speed connecting to the market up but I haven't done a search for that yet as I am on the phone. :P

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rmk40:
Uninstall the latest version of YouTube. We provide an older/working version with the ROM, which will be enabled automatically if you uninstall updates.

This is asked pretty often. Currently there's no way but we'll provide an option soon (probably with v1.0.0).

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] edwill44:
I've had the phone standing by for 6hrs and noticed that it never went to sleep. The display doesn't time out. The screen goes black correctly but the display doesn't. I know that was one of the issues on the Rhodium thread with 2.2. What I am looking at is the Awake time in Menu > Settings > About > Battery. The awake time should reset when the phone sleeps. I'm not a developer but it looks like something is keeping the display from timing out. Am I missing something?

Contact sync with facebook, linkedIn etc...

Don't have that with NO SENSE Roms right..??

Otherwise, i'm missing something :p

HTC has to make Ginger Sense first.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] the orange bandit:
Well whaddya know, all my texts got deleted last night (or sometime this morning). First time it's happened to me on any version of Virtuous. I've still got the Sense messages app installed but disabled, been using Handcent SMS since day 1.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] HAK Devil:
Wow, just happened to me last night as well for the first time using Virtuous and I have been on this rom ever since I got my G2. Not a huge deal I suppose since I usually don't keep too many texts to avoid clutter. Using ChompSMS if that means anything

Mine are in tact. Haven't installed any new programs but my battery is draining twice as fast now. Going to wait until the new release instead of reflashing.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] IncredibleDoes:
I made a build wondering if its the same?

Features:

- Base 1.72.466.4 - 2.2.1

- No screen wake issue

- Hot reboot/power off menu

- All defaults removed by default

- Flashlight has been replaced with Torch

- DSP Manager

- Desire HD Music

- Wifi-calling

- Multi-lango

- Optimized

- Rooted with su/superuser

- 2.6.32.28 pershoot kernel

- Trackpad wake

- Bash, nano, busybox etc...

Im sure this build does obtain all these features... I'd like to know which ones are not featured on this build.

IncDoes
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blast0id:
I don't know which is newer... the 1.83 ARA build, or your 1.72 build, your build looks newer than 0.9.0 but older than 0.9.5 (still in beta), but then again 1.83 ARA is only 2.2 not 2.2.1 so I'm pretty confused as far as that ish goes... you have a link to your build? is it for the vision/g2/dz?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] eViL D::
You'd have to check your build project number. Though they are pretty similar.

Also, as for your question. We provide as stock experience as possible, save for things like modded power menu, battery percent (future). We don't replace stock apps, i.e. flashlight for torch, desire hd music.

BTW, the change log is in the OP. :cool:

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Ninj:
Just to add my two cents before to go to sleep. I had some reading to achieve as i didn't come here for 5 days. 15 pages...

So, i'm on 0.9 with standard kernel, CPUTuner, and i HAD very good battery life (48h on light usage, 24h on normal usage, with wifi and 3G)

But it dropped down dramatically, apparently with no reason (not even an app installed, seriously), 4 days ago. I tried stopping CPUTuner, no change, then CPUTuner back but with smarter profiles, no change...

Now i run 8-9h of light usage, if i play 1h of non-3D game, my battery drops of 50%, I must almost keep my charger in hand when i move!

I wonder weither to do a full wipe and reinstall. But i'm curious and like to find the reasons of everything, so if anyone as a clue to start to search with :)

Thanks!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] PatrickHuey:
