The trick to defeat the wake-lock issues is not to use the smart-ass or interactive governers with screen-off.

When u use conservative you will have no problems whatsoever
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] catachresistant:
The Cyanogenmod camera is quite good, though? They hugely reworked the standard Android camera (which is absolutely dreadful).

For all the noise people make about HTC et al tweaking Android's UI, I have to say, stock Android just doesn't cut it for me. The HTC Dialer vs. the stock dialer is a good case in point - the latter feels like being back in 2005.

I definitely feel manufacturers would be less likely to "re-skin" Android if the base operating system was a little less terrible in some aspects (the statusbar and its icons, oy vey...).

Anyway, using Virtuous @ 1ghz, everything is basically instant for me. I don't play games or anything, so that might have something to do with it, but the system has never lagged for me, and I've never thought, "I wish this was faster". It Just Works.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tbalden:
well the camera in cm7 is not too bad, but no tap to zoom. The dialer in cm7 is not bad, I cannot search by phone number tho, but by name its good. I synced exchange too to cm7, its quite nicely working.

I miss the fm radio of htc, but there's a replacement from miui,with troubles of media muting on a call, hopefully will be fixed. Otherwise the battery life is quite good. I used sense a lot, I loved it, but its not perfect either, like a lot of fc of its home screen, freezing calendar, so thought its time to see what gingerbread is about, and what's the difference. Thought it will be worse, missing sense, but contrary, up to now I'm happy I've tried the vanilla. Maybe ill check back when htc pushes out another major update or I'm bored with hacking roms...:p
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ShimaMiku:
Wanted to say thanks because I love this ROM!!

Has there been any update to the youtube lag fix? I updated by mistake and had that horrible lag issue, so I uninstalled the update and now its back to the very old version (the one that doesn't have the screen rotation option).

Does anyone know the most up-to-date stable version of youtube that works with this so I can get the apk? Thanks!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] the orange bandit:
The HTC Sense camera *application* is far superior - touch to focus, face detection, the various scenes you can apply, it's just better all the way around. It's 90% of the reason I haven't tried CM7 - not sure I can leave it behind.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
i sware i can't move any apps to my sdcard.. like seriously None lol.. makes it kinda pointless having the adobe apps installed since they are freakishly large and i cant move them.. any suggestions?

And i might have to flash the OC kernel.. This thing is crazy how fast things are.. its so smooth. But my battery life is ridiculous and its dying entirely too fast.

Also and You guys shouldnt bash CM based roms so much. I was a die hard Sense fan until i actually flashed a CyanogenMod rom. And it beats the blocks off any sense ROM in terms of customization. Especially CM7. But i still love sense because i LOVE the htc widgets and their skinned apps. If you haven't tried a CM rom, I HIGHLY reccomend you do.

Hi DEV's,

same at my side...

While using the standard kernel v1.0.9, my battery life was poor!

So I tried "Pershoot Virtuous v1.3" and "Advanced Kernel Version v1.0.9" in combination with CPUtuner (max OC also 998Mhz) ... with both version, I get much battery life.

Is there something wrong within the standard edition? May be the "integrated" power profiles did not work at standard kernel?

Brgds,

wTc

Hello !

Finally I did it, I have just rooted by Desire Z and switched to Virtuous ROM. First thanks a lot for your work, it works very well !

I had a bunch of bugs after migration (even if I wiped the data). The most important among them (for others, I find a way to fix them):

Youtube app is consuming 100% CPU right after I am leaving the first video I select. I tried both usb debugging on/off (I read that on some forums) but I did not manage to get it propertly working. As it is one of the application I use the most, I would like to find a fix for that. I don't know if it is related to Virtuous, or a generally bug, but I did not notice this issue using 1.72 HTC rom ... any idea what could be going wrong ?

Thanks for your help !
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Eclypz:
This has been answered many times in this thread. You have 2 workarounds:

1) uninstall the latest YouTube app update. You can easily do this in the Android market.

2) rotate your phone to portrait before pressing the back button to exit the video.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] GuiPoM:
sorry for that, I made first a search on this thread by searching for youtube app, I did not found an answer ... Anyway, thanks for your message.

Can I additionally ask for another question: is it related to Virtuous ROM, or a known youtube application bug ?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] graffixnyc:
I tried both and I like cpu tuner better only because you can also turn off connections within the profile (sync, bluetooth, wifi, 2g/3g). I did not see that option in SetCpu
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] graffixnyc:
So I had the Virtuous rom on my phone the day I got it(last week) as soon as I got it out of the box I rooted it and installed your rom. I didnt even touch the stock rom. Today I figured I would try Cyaongen... I had it loaded for about 10 minutes.. decided I didnt really like the feel of it and went right back to Virtuous :D

anyone having trouble with phone picking up voice? like sometimes the other person cant hear me.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blu3angel:
Actually now that you mentioned it, i do experienced it a few times.. I thought it is maybe because of a bad reception when the other party couldn't hear my voice.. I've experienced it twice today but however when i tried calling the other party again it was ok... Quite weird... :confused:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ShimaMiku:
Anyone know anything?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] GuiPoM:
I made a second test, we the old version of youtube it works as expected, but that's a shame not to be able to use the latest version, that makes possible to get its own playlist on the main page :(

Another question: I notice in Quadrant that current CPU frequency always equals max CPU frequency (998). On a G1/Gingerbread, this is not the case. Is it something normal that CPU remains so high ? I though the frequency is set to max only if load is over 90%
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] G1_enthusiast:
hmmm evil do you guys experience this, several user include myself experience it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blast0id:
I most certainly couldn't do without htc camera... I've stripped the majority of other things from this rom, but that will always stay...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] PatrickHuey:
That's one of the main reason I haven't gone to cm, mainly because of the camera. Its extremely nice, and it so high quality. Especially with the effects that can be added. And oh yeah, sense is beautiful.

Just wanna say thanks, this has definitely helped my battery life. 15 hours in with WIFI enabled at all times and I am only now hitting 70% remaining with light usage
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blast0id:
camera, dialer, contacts, calender, worldclock(alarms) are the reasons I probably will never go to any other rom...

the bluetooth stack REALLY needs to be fixed though for this to be a "complete" rom IMO though... it's totally effed, without support for HID profiles... I REALLY need support for my BT keyboard...

Rosie in landscape with keyboard closed?

Can't find anything in thread but is there any way to have rosie (sense) go into landscape mode when the keyboard is closed (i know the apps rotate but am talking about sense). Would be great in my car where I can rotate the phone to landscape and use it. Bit of a pain in the ass that the dialer especially is still in portrait.

thanks

Reset

Hello,

I love this ROM, has been using it for about 3 weeks now, everything is OK.

Recently, a few days ago I experienced a weird behavior. Often when I hit the Home screen quite often the HTC boot screen appears and the phone seems to go through a "soft reset" cycle: "wait" message for about 7-10 seconds, the order of the installed apps resets to default (to alphabetical order). Similar to this described here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=784364

This happened occasionally with the stock ROM too, but in the last 2 days happened more often. I am wondering why, does it has to do with some installed app which is messing with some system process?

Thanks for any pointers or advice.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] beta199:
Installed app sort order

The installed apps by default are sorted alphabetically, but from the menu this can be sorted by installation date.

Is it any way to make this order (by installation date) the default after a reset?

Thank you.

I just plugged it into the pc, standby got on and browsed the filesystem (to check if the db is corrupted or not). It was still there and didn't look corrupted. I removed the USB cable and oh wonder, the window with the 'OK' button wasn't anymore there (after the standby I guess)and no sms got deleted.

But still weird....

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sssandhu78:
I always do a clean install. But I still had the same problem too. But for me it wasn't hitting the home screen that set off the "soft reset cycle" but rather the phone seemed to do it automatically and unpredictably. I went back to backed up ROM using clockwork (I had backed up when I had no problems). Things seem to be better now. But I would still like to know why it happened ...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] graffixnyc:
I read that in Rosie the home screen will not auto rotate when you put it in landscape mode unless the keyboard is opened. I think it's kinda dumb that they designed it like this. I have since stopped using the Sense launcher and use ADW now. With ADW and Launcher Pro the homescreen will rotate without the keyboard being open
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blast0id:
you're also no longer limited to a 4x4 homescreen grid =) among plenty of other things...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
Any way I could get the functionality of having the lockscreen background be different from the actual home background? I remember back in the old sense roms it was possible but I just noticed that its not in this build.

Been using this rom for a few days and I must say battery life has not been great. Any tips? I use CPU Tuner with profiles to adjust when my battery gets low. Is there a better option? Great rom other than that, can't wait for the next big update. Hopefully this gets Gingerbread at some point but that can wait.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] G1_enthusiast:
what? gingerbread is an upgrade from this, this is a rom not a theme, and the battery is just the way of the beast man, get a 1800mAh battery and you should be good.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] the orange bandit:
Totally depends on your settings, man. If you're clocked up to 1.5GHz or more, you're definitely going to see a big drain in your battery. I run my phone at 1.2GHz most of the time and I *easily* get 12-15 hours of active use (Tweetdeck syncing, gmail, gtalk, etc).

Yes, thats why I'm asking. I'm wondering if there's a way to "fool" it into thinking the keyboard is open and rotate.

ADW and Launcher Pro (which I have) are of no interest to me as I want to use Sense.

So, I'm planning to flash Virtuous on my DZ later.

Since the lastest changlog for Version 0.9.0 said "Do not restore system data", so before I do a full wipe, I need to backup my things using Titanium Backup, so in "Batch", i need to select which one?

But how about phonebooks and sms?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] hova08:
Sorry I'm new to andriod, but have used WinMo for years. I'm using the Virtuious 9.0 and need to know how to flash a kernel because the standard one drains my batter quick.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] carlos_polanco:
Hi!

I was a big WinMo fan for years but turned Android now.

Let me tell you that, IN MY CASE, every Android I've tried has a poor battery life. :S

Now, answering your question, you can go to ROM MANAGER in the download ROM - VIRTUOUS section and you can find the kernels.

Im using advanced 1.09... Ive had some "gone sleep for ever" issues but just one in a week... With other kernels was worst.

By the way, I stop using setCPU or what ever app that manages cpu.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Herrera91:
Just select batches that include user apps. If you try to backup system apps, that'll defeat the purpose of wiping all your system data before flashing the new ROM. Also, make sure you backup your current ROM in recovery. As far as your phonebook and SMS, if you saved your contacts in your SIM card, you're fine, but all of your messages will be deleted unless you used a different SMS app from the market and decided to save your messages through that app.

In order to flash a new kernel, save the kernel itself to the root of your SD card and flash it like you would flash a new ROM. You don't need to wipe before flashing a kernel. Another option is to download them from the ROM Manager app which will flash it for you, but it's only available if you buy the premium license.

From my experience, G2-Fast does work but not everything functions correctly when running on that kernel (i.e. FM radio won't work). And the neon kernel doesn't support Sense-based ROMs, which what Virtuous is.
