It's because wifi actually uses less power when connected, in relationship to mobile data connection, because of the way it searches for connection. You should allways connect to wifi when possible and set Sleep to Never.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] more2come:
You can check it by testing how warm your phone gets during heavy data traffic on mobile connection and how cool it stays if you use wireless lan.

That high temperature is wasted energy, I only know the German word for it ( it's "Verlustwärme" ).

can sum1 tell me how to get apps to SD card with this rom?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] eViL D::
Use the application manager in settings.

Why would you want to use this?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] pyro9219:
This was one of me biggest reasons for moving to t-mobile. I'm setup to use wifi calling in my home at at work, so my battery goes on for days using the settings I've shared a few posts back.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] demo4o1:
BC while I have all my Apsara on my internal wouldn't it slow my phone down and clutter everything? Stock memory is wat? Less 2gb? If I used up all dat memory my g2 would an a reckless.

Nd I tried da application manager it doesn't allow me to move apps to sd
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Hemi-Cuda:
question, i was running the stock HTC Sense rom on my Desire Z from Bell Mobility, version 1.32 i think with Android 2.2. i installed Virtuous 8.1 through ROM Manager without issue and the phone seems to be working fine, but i'm not seeing any battery life improvements that were supposed to be a feature of 2.2.1. the one thing i didn't do was perform a full wipe before installing Virtuous, would that adversely affect anything?

as it stands right now, if i leave my phone unplugged overnight in about 8 hours the battery will be down to 35%, with a Set CPU screen off profile of 245mhz, and wifi connected to my home network (bluetooth and gps are off). seems like something is sucking unneeded juice
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] demo4o1:
I might b wrong but if u have wifi on, set it so that u have all data off and use wifi calling. It'll save u less battery while on stand by. And I believe u should always do a full wipe when installing roms. I forgot to do that last when installing this rom for my Gf nd the phone went crazy! Everything was fc'ing so I did a wipe nd it fixed everything
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] eViL D::
There is a reason they give you as much space as they do. Otherwise, what would be the point? I personally don't see a2sd coming anytime soon, there's honestly no need for it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Hemi-Cuda:
i'm on Bell Mobility, so wifi calling isn't an option. so now if i want to wipe, will performing a full system wipe with Virtuous still installed be the same as if i re-installed the rom and chose to wipe within ROM Manager?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] demo4o1:
Well I always thought they minimize memory for a $ thing so that the next phone will have a higher memory. Its always about the $$ that's where us geeks come in nd use it to its maximum capacity. I have two g2s nd I experiment with them both. 1 has. Cm6.1.1 with most of my apps on SD. My other g2 using this rom with few apps it just lags so in my opinion apps to SD is keeping the motor clear of traffic for the more important running apps. Correct me if I am wrong sumbody
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] demo4o1:
Do a nadroid back up. Then full wipe and cache. See wat happens if u did sumthing wrong u can always restore back
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bongd:
I agree with the others. Do a Nandroid backup and wipe before you reinstall. Also, delete your battery stats with Clockword Recovery Mod and then fully charge your phone and try bump charging it too.

Charge it until it's green and 100%, disconnect from the charger for a moment and plug it back in for another half hour or so. Do this a couple more times so it's filled to the brim. Then do a full power drain right down to 0% and let the phone shut off. Turn it back on until it dies again. Then remove the battery and do that again. You just might be able to remove the battery once more and let it boot up but it should shortly die. This should help to calibrate the battery and seems to work good when switching from different ROMs and Kernels. It helped for me!

I'm on Rogers and get over 40 hours of battery time using lots of WiFi and a hefty amount of 3G/HSPA mobile data. I do have SuperPower which can help disable WiFi and mobile data during different events (I only use it for Screen Off event). And it can disable mobile data when WiFi is enabled which is great too. Then I have a Screen Off profile for SetCPU so it goes to the lowest voltage and another profile to get it to stock speeds once it's 30%. Works pretty damn good for me and I use the HELL out of my phone, especially now that I have this amazing Virtuous ROM which kicks a whole ton of ass. :cool:

losing app on SD after reboot

I come from a stock Desire Z rom. I used the

adb shell pm setInstallLocation 2

letting to have on Froyo applications on SD card. Working pretty well actually.

I moved to Virtuous (great rom!) and I tried the same, but after reboot I lost the app on SD card. In the "Applications" menu they were greyed, and totally disappeared in the menu.

I put everything back with adb shell pm setInstallLocation 0

Is there a way to get i working?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] SSVR:
Hmm... I had some (i presume) SetCPU issues with my DZ over night :(

Left it on charge from the AC adapter (profile set to clock to 1.3Ghz on performance governor) and when I woke up thismorning there were random lockups every couple of seconds. Like, everything would run smooth then just pause then carry on.

When I checked SetCPU it'd set the governor for my main settings (if none of the profiles are called) to performance from what it should have been as ondemand!

A reboot fixed it. But still a bit odd.

Love this idea!!! I love set CPU but the built in always seams to work so much smoother. Thanks for the awesome work!!!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Delta105RUS:
Here are more details. My phone is very slow. I have a problem with waking up the phone (screen stays black), but I read the posts before and know how to fix it. It always says "3g" on the notification bar ( I have sometimes seen "H", but only in my house). People try to call me and my phone doesn't receive the call. Sometimes it says five bars, but if I try to make a call it drops to zero and says "limited connection" and "emergency calls only", even though my mobile signal widget shows a good servise. I really want this ROM to work. I love sense. If you need more info tell me exactly what you want to know. I have restored it back to original ROM and it all works. Please help. Thanks.

EDIT! I feel so STUPID I haven't updated it. I was using 7.4....... sorry for wasting your time people.

I've got the some problem, any idea how to solve this?

I've deleted the com.swype.android.inputmethod.apk and tried to install the Swype Beta but it crashes all the time :(
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] chchia:

make sure you know how to remove!! mistake can brick your phone.

and reinstall latest swype.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Piotrekk:
It does not work. I removed the .apk from /system/app, cleared the cache using Clockwork, but Swype still does not work. I can use the official Swype installer to download and install swype. But i can non activate it :(
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] patoberli:
Also had this issue now. Any solution for this?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] chchia:
goto setting, language and keyboard, and activate it.

I can activate it but I'm getting FCs when trying to access the Swype configuration menu or trying to enable it using long press - input methods inside of a text field.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bitter1:
Did a search and didn't see anything specific, but when using Wi-Fi calling, it works fine when I'm at a Hotspot, etc. But at home it tells me it cannot use WiFi calling because the signal is too weak.

Um, ok. It tried to get me to use WiFi calling from a "poor" signal in a Barnes and Noble across the street and down a block that kept cutting out.

But at home with perfect signal (I'm sitting next to the router just about) it says signal too poor.

Huh? The phone itself and signal widgets seem to logically tell me the reality, but not the WiFi Calling App, what gives?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dadewy:
What do you have for home internet? Where you doing anything on your home internet at the time (torrents..?) I'm wondering if it needs a certain amount of bandwidth to operate and will complain the "signal is poor" if it's not finding it. Just speculating...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] EclipseX:
radio don't work oO
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] the orange bandit:
Assuming you mean the FM Radio.

1. Are you using the default kernel or a custom one? If custom, which one? If its not specifically for Sense, different features won't work, including FM radio.

2. Do you have headphones plugged in? It requires this because it uses the cord as the antenna.

3. How exactly does it not work? Static, no sound, force close, etc
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blast0id:
this isn't actually rom specific, but I am going to ask this here...

I can't get my phone to connect to my wifi @ home. it connects @ my uncles which has almost identical settings, and at my fiances parents house, but not at mine... I don't know if it makes a difference but I'm using custom router firmware (dd-wrt) on a wrt54g (rev2.1) set-up for WPA2-Personal +AES custom password. I believe it has 14-channel operation and I'm thinking this might be the issue but I can't find (on the phone) where you can set it to 14 or 11 channel domain... I'm pretty sure this was a configurable option in android wireless settings... anyways, any other suggestions would be wonderful! and sorry if this is being asked in the wrong place.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] SSVR:
I've had one or two problems related to lag too...

In the two nights since I've had the phone everclocked (only moderately) it's either been very laggy when I've woken up or this morning it looked like it was in the process of reloading the UI and needed a reboot.

I'm gunna try disabling setcpu overnight and see how that works.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] raviluke:
anyone know how to disable swype?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Herrera91:
Swype didn't fancy my suit neither, but instead of just removing it entirely, here's what I did: hold a text-box for a good second or so, then let go and an option will appear ("Input Method"). Click on that, then click on "Touch Input". Voila! Back to stock keyboard!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] pyro9219:

I sometimes don't even get a message until I go in the messaging app. :(
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Eclypz:
Same problem here. No notifications, but then I happened to go into the messaging app to look something up and all of a sudden I have unread messages sent 5 hours ago.

Currently running handcent here and no such issues.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] patoberli:
Stock messaging app.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ~~Tito~~:
I wonder what it could be, it really makes people mad at me lol.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] csjfong:
Using chompSMS and no issue on message notification.

BTW, anyone know how to add stock HTC handwriting input method to this ROM?

I've extracted the original HTC_IME.apk (with handwriting) from stock ROM (from Hong Kong) and install to Virtuous 0.81. But there is still no handwriting option for me...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blu3angel:
Maybe you should check the messaging settings again and check the relevant boxes? Like auto receive messages; etc...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] edwill44:
I had this prob and found out that if my auto-sync is off I dont get messages. Turn it on and all is good. I dont know if that is the solution though....
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bongd:
I use GO SMS with no challenges. Looks like the culprit could be the stock messaging app. Mine go through almost instantly. Everything is working like a charm except for a few WiFi challenges.

I've just reset my router with specific settings to hit my DLNA TV and PS3 to use PS3 media server. I can stream Blurays from my old ****ty PC to my bedroom without any problems at all. I thought it may be the wireless channels or encryption but I was at my moms for a couple recent visits and had difficulty connecting with that as well. I'm not a wireless GENIUS or anything but I've set up enough routers with custom firmware to be able to troubleshoot to my needs at least. Haven't checked into this too much.

Anyone else having difficulty with WiFi?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] raviluke:
Worked great. Thanks
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] quietpopcorn:
I really enjoy this rom, but the only thing I don't like about it is the trackpad wake. I looked in the settings for an option to turn it off, but couldn't seem to find one. Just as I did a search for this, but couldn't seem to find an answer. Normally, I would love this, but I do a lot of moving around & bending at work & that does some crazy stuff on my phone sometimes.

Thanks.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] andersonjacob54:
I am having a few problems with this ROM.

1. My Launcher Pro Calendar Widget doesn't update to the proper day, it gets stuck at one day.

2. HTC Sync for Facebook encounters an error and never syncs after the first day.

3. Sometimes the trackball light blinks nonstop even when I have no notifications and I cannot stop it from blinking except by turning off the phone.

I have tried resetting everything, factory default, dalvik cache, etc. and even reinstalling the ROM, but nothing works.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Delta105RUS:
Can I fully shut down the phone, because all it does is put it on standby.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mbergh22:
The same goes with my led light blinking
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] the orange bandit:
Can I make a simple request? I know you're not trying to copy CM, but on his ROMs, the widget selection menu is collapsed - if a widget has 2+ sizes or other options, it only has one entry on this menu, with a '3 widgets' sub-title, and you can click on the entry to get another list with those widgets. Its really handy.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] SSVR:
For those with lagging issues and problems after leaving the phone overnight.

I just disabled SetCPU and after the night sitting there it's perfectly fine - no need for a reboot etc.

And I don't even know how this makes sense but the menus are more fluid and apps open quicker etc.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] burtcom:
Are you holding down the power button until it shows you the menu where you can choose to shut down?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Razorless:
Ive been using this ROM for like 10 hours now and my Desire Z completely froze (had to pull battery) three times now. Two times after unplugging the charger and a third time while applying settings in set cpu. I have a profile "screen off @367Hz (100% priority) and "charging @ 1,5GHz 50% priority) btw.

Used it for hours at 1,5GHz before without problems...Im trying some things now, and see if i can find out what causes the issue.

Anyone experienced similar problems?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] chineseboy16:
It's been working flawless with me. The only problem I'm facing is that sometimes my youtube freezes and I have to pull the battery.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Razorless:
Of course, i could not replicate the freeze at will, so ill see and hope my phone doesnt die...forever.

So far no other complaints, ROM is really much faster than stock sense.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bongd:
Issues like that usually aren't worth troubleshooting too far until you wipe and reinstall, imho. I can't tell you how many countless hours were wasted troubleshooting in the wrong direction when the fix was actually quite simple.

On that note, it's about time for me to completely wipe my SD card aside from the bare essentials and start from the ground up. Titanium is great but I'm sure I have tons of unused apps and data from other ROMS and even other phones (Xperia X10... shudder)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Jacky113:
Try disable screen off profile, I did this and I haven't had it freeze on wake, also I put the profile of main to conservative.

Hi...I am uising the virtuous-vision_froyo_rom-v0.8.1 and this has the trackpad wake up / unlock as part of this rom, but while I like the feature when I have my phone in my hand, it is a huge problem sliding and slipping into my holster / pouch. This feature makes my phone turn on or unlock while sliding in.

So, is there some setting, apk or something can can change this feature back to the stock, which is not an unlock button?

Thanks,

malloy0

Mods...I know this is a Q and this is not allowed but it is ROM based, so I am guessing it is ok. Please do not slam me, sometime these threads are heard to know what goes where. I hope this is ok. If not bust me. I apologize in advance.
