Swype should be there by default if you use the above method.

The only time I didn't have swype after reboot is if I used the default.xml from the original thread instead of modifying the virtuous one like mentioned above, unless it was coincidence.

I'd try it again and let the phone sit there for a bit after first bootup.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] joemm:
This process never removed Swype, As soon as I booted it up swype was present and selected as default.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sna66:
is the defeat data throttle built in?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] joemm:
I dont think so at least not in the way of removing the throttle files because I pull the service.jar file and the throttle files are still there

A new issue has arose for me, WiFi keeps shutting off & on and it's making the WiFi calling app act up also.

I'm not using any program that shuts off WiFi so it's not that.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] pyro9219:
I leave the wifi calling feature enabled so it automatically defaults to that mode while home and at work.. I've not had any issues over wifi. Might be your install..

Version 0.8.1 is available for download as a patch from 0.8.0. It's mostly fixes for the few outstanding bugs.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] awryter:
Thanks so much. This ROM has completely changed the way I feel about Sense, making it eminently more usable. This new RUU is the fastest thing since sliced bread, which is pretty fast. Kudos.

You gotta factory reset, that's why I always edit it soon as I flash the Rom

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] smoochiezz24:
Download Rom Manager from the market. As fas as I know, only 8.1 full ROM is available. The same as 8.0 but more stable. No word on Ereader though. I'm sure u can just download it tho.

Is there anyway having problems with their friends' Facebook pictures not loading in the Facebook tab of the Gallery app? I'm logged into Facebook and have even logged out and back in. Hasn't worked since I first flashed Virtuous.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Tomb77:
Same issue here on facebook photos through gallery, although I don't usually use it. Can see how that could be annoying though. No issues through facebook app.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] patoberli:
Update done, no problem so far :)

Thanks
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Disconn3ct:
Probably that is all related to doing a wipe -after- the install completed. The rom does some post-install first-boot stuff, and it doesn't appear to handle wipes correctly. You need to do it the way the post lists - BEFORE the first reboot, swap the files.

I will probably slap it into an update.zip today, so you can wipe, apply rom, apply patch(es), then reboot.

(Edit: No I won't, since 0.8.1 fixes it :) ..)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] gteye:
When I did it initially I did do a full wipe, then flash the rom via recovery and then before the first reboot I pushed the files that were in the zip.

The second time I did it (and third to my wifes phone) I just pulled the default.xml from the virtuous rom and edited it and then pushed it back and it didn't happen. Certainly could have been coincidence as I did not compare the default.xml in your zip to the one in virtuous to check for differences since once I saw what the change was I just edited the one in virtuous.

Either way it's part of the patch now and I'd like to thank you for finding this out and sharing the fix with everyone.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Disconn3ct:
The files in the zip were based off 0.6 or whatever, so its possible they got updated. Doesn't matter anymore though :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] DAVIDMULL:
I applied the rom with a wipe and the update just throu rom manager but in both I occasionally see the wake up problem with the sensitive button and with the power button any having the same problem? Still the best rom outhere! :)

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] the orange bandit:
Awesome, the v0.8.1 update fixed the market for me - now it starts up nearly as quickly as the old version did. No complaints otherwise, keep up the great work, devs!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Rover_2303:
so heres the thing.. im using the Sense rom that i downloaded from ROM Manager.. great work by the way but i keep seeing that my mobile network goes from 3G to H and just keeps doing that over and over.. is there a way that it stays on HSPA+..because right now its only been on 3G for the past 2 days and rarely changed back to HSPA
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] gteye:
The only issue left for me, and I think a few others mentioned it as well, is one I thought went away but it just did it again.

When launching the market, usually the first time after a phone reboot, the mobile internet connection will disappear and you get a retry dialog box, then it comes back and works fine from that point on.

Phones been running rock solid here with 0.8.0 (and 0.8.1).
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Disconn3ct:
That is really easy to fix - go stand closer to an HSPA+ tower. (The stock rom puts the H up most/all of the time, even when on 3g. These roms print the actual network it is using.)

what sort of battery life are you getting and are you using any specific settings?

my battery bar puts my battery life at 10.5 hours, which is pretty good, but it seems to drain fast.

Having been unplugged for 48 min, it went from 100% to 88%, with the display using 50%. I'm not sure if this is normal or if there is anything I can to improve it
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mbergh22:
i love the rom! The only problem I have and I'm not sure if its the rom, is the market taking forever to load!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] silverton:
Doing a factory data reset after applying the .8.1 patch seems to have fixed the MMS issue. Had a friend send me a picture, and it was not blurry. Saved it was about 25kB's. Prior, the pictures were about 2-4kB's.

Facebook albums work for me in the gallery, albeit painfully slow. I have both Facebook and Facebook for HTC Sense enabled in "Accounts"

Market opens up near instantly, at least, not slow enough to be annoying or get to the point of "okay, come on...."
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] hightechlive:
i installed the rom and love it,thanks.buy i have one question how do i install the patch 8.0.1 the same way i installed the rom?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] joemm:
You can install it thru Rom manager, select download rom, select Virtuous, download patch, wipe cache and apply, but I like to check the MD5 numbers before I flash anything, so I download the patch, check the MD5 numbers, place it on root of the SD card, boot into recovery, wipe cache and dalvik cache, do not wipe data, apply udpate v0.8.1 patch zip right over your already installed v0.8.0, reboot and your done.

Does this update require a clear cache? I flashed it directly over 8.0 and have been having a couple bugs like the unlock button taking a few presses for the screen to appear and my results on QS went from almost 2300 to 1600.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] silverton:
One thing I should note, and I thought it was WHEIRD.

When I did the factory data reset, the touchscreen was responding oddly. tap the left side, and the right side would get the input, tap the right side, and the left side would receive. So basically the touchscreen was reacting oppositely left to right, top and bottom were fine though.

Another factory reset cleared it up.

Also, my auto brightness does not work either, it did in .8.0 though.

Sadly there is a HUGE bug in the Bluetooth (maybe A2DP audio streaming only?!?), so now after using it for 3 days I'm forced to revert back to stock G2 ROM

When playing music thru A2DP (stereo Bluetooth headphones or car stereo), if I get a call while music is streaming thru Bluetooth the entire handset locks up to the point I have to remove the battery in order to reset. Might not be a big deal to most but I use A2DP music streaming on my phone more than any other feature :(

Such a shame, I loved this ROM..

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] piflechien:
@ungarisch

If you love music through A2DP you have to forget every Sense based ROM since audio quality is just crap. Bitpool is set to 32 which is way too low !

I recommend using Cyanogen ROM which sets bitpool to 53.

2. Pics for contacts that are linked to Facebook show up really blurry. The 7.4 Rom they were bright and clear.

Using 8.1 ROM and did a full wipe of both data and cache each 3 times. Also wiped dalvik cache.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] the orange bandit:
Typically if you're using a Sense ROM (like this one) you need to use a kernel specifically designed for the Sense ROMs, or else you lose compatibility with things like FM radio, Bluetooth, WiFi hotspot, etc.

I would recommend using one of the included Sense kernels. I think the fastest Sense kernel lets you OC to 1.4Ghz - I have my phone at 1.2GHz and it's more than fine.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] da900:
