Totally love this rom!

However, I faced the following problems.

1) Draw Something force closes.
2) Even though my security is set to no lock, I still encounter the lock ring thing. This can be a bit irritating, because I am using Go Locker, so I have to swipe up the lock ring, then slide up again on my Go Locker theme, before accessing home.

Also, I do hope future versions might allow users to customize the quick settings slide down, cause not all the functions are needed.

Looking forward to the next update :)

Swipe up? Are you on the sense rom? This is desensed thread.
(U can customize it, check leedroid tweak, already in the sense rom) pls discuss this in pyroice sense thread. Thx

I have reason to believe the cache issues, contact search and dialer problems arise from errors during flashing.
I did a full wipe, flashed twice and then did another wipe. Booted the rom and left it to sit for a while(about 10mins or so) then rebooted. When it rebooted, I added the google account for sync.
I have had it running for a while with no problems. I recommend all those getting the above problems to try this.

I'm frequently on TeamSpeak at night. Last night we noticed that whenever I turn the screen off the connection over WiFi fades in/out every few seconds; it's set to never disconnect.

Under a non-slide MyTouch 4G running CM7.1, this never occurs, and I didn't stop to try the MyTouch 4G Slide's stock ROM that much, so I don't know if it's the hardware or the ROM. Thought I'd note it here just in case.




Also: I've noticed every now and then my keyboards backlight doesn't come on but closing it and the screen, and then opening and sliding it out, the keys are usually lit up again.

Also noticed trying to log into an app that using '¦' from the alt+enter symbols picker, doesn't validate when the login uses '|'.

Its differing. Use soft keyboard and look for | , pressing the ?123 button twice. This I typed from phone

sent from HTC Doubleshot

I can see that it is differing ;).

On the soft (Android) keyboard: hitting ?123 then =\< - gives a key for the pipe symbol (aka vertical bar). The problem is how to enter this from the hard keyboard on the phone, not how to find it on the software keyboard. The physical layout T-Mobile/HTC uses in the US doesn't have | or ¦ on it. Using alt+enter to open the symbol picker does not give me the option of entering |.

Better Terminal Emulator Pro at least yields a more useful symbol picker (with | and other stuff) but in normal applications such as those using a normal text field, alt+enter on the h ard keyboard gives a symbol picker with ¦ instead of |.


Having to change from hard to soft keyboard to make |, isn't very useful. The result from | on the soft keyboard is much more wildly used than the result of ¦ from the alt+enter symbol picker!

Met a weird error...
SMS...I've thought it should have been solved...

I have received an ad message and deleted it...
Then if I wanna send the message to someone, the message will be sent to the ad number...
Or I get a message from someone, in the sms box, it'll be placed into the ad number, not the one who actually sent the message...

Have to install go sms pro to avoid it....

I apologize for my ignorance, but I don't see anything specific to the mt4gs.
The "Video Demo" on http://www.virtuousrom.com/ demonstrates using a HTC Sensation. Are the mt4gs and HTC Sensation exactly same?

basically yes, functionality is almost the same, except some shortcomings you can find in the thread ive mentioned in my reply above.

Hey tbalden, just flashed this rom and immediately noticed the menu wake is disabled. I read back a few pages, grabbed the old keylayout file and replaced it in the ROM. It boots, the menu wakes the phone, but now the home and genius button is hosed. Do you think you could make a flashable zip to revert the changes to the old key layout? Thanks!

    For updates check http://www.virtuousrom.com/ since i joined VirtuousROM team. Look for Virtuous Inquisition.
    its the perfect upgrade for this rom, I recommend moving to inquisition instead of using this. I've released some fixes for that rom, which are not available for this older rom.

    kernel sources:
    https://github.com/TeamDS/htc-kernel-doubleshot_26


    pyr'o'ice ICS desensed 1.1.3 - AOSPish, ICS Android 4.0.3

    A Pyramid HTC ICS ROM conversion based on the leaked ROM. Ported from the published rom by RCTeam and using a lot from the desensed rom by virtuous team (Virtuous Inquisition), tweaked a lot to work with mt4gs. http://www.virtuousrom.com/
    ICS AOSP 4.0.3 apps/gapps / Nova launcher beta 15 on htc's pyramid ICS framework and kornyone's HTC doubleshot kernel hacked / merged by me for sensation porting quirks. ICS gapps preinstalled.
    It's using HTC Camera app (aosp doesnt work to full extent with the HTC libs that this ROM bases on, later i'll add an Addon with the AOSP one that replaces this).
    Kernel with kineto, tun, encryption and cifs support.

    FLASH IT AT YOUR OWN RISK! YOU MIGHT BRICK YOUR PHONE! (I DID NOT, BUT BE WARNED!)

    0., Use latest CWM recovery and be S-off
    1., Copy to SDcard
    2., Full wipe needed
    3., install the zip
    4., After first boot, let the media scan (music) settle to fill your music apps and galleries, and read the TRICKS part below for useful tips.
    Wallpaper will be garbled on first start, don't worry, just choose your own when setup completed.
    Also will start in Afrikaans lang but on first page you can choose your language, english etc

    5., Read this first post all through for a lot of information that might come handy!!

    IF YOU'RE S-ON Unlocked, YOU HAVE TO USE FASTBOOT TO FLASH KERNEL(boot.img): Unzip the Installer on PC, look for the file 'boot.img', get fastboot installed on PC. Boot your Phone into Bootloader/Fastboot. Plug in USB, and when phone is in Fastboot USB, type: fastboot flash boot boot.img - S-On boot.img HOW TO by Limewirelord, thx, here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1508556


    Stable, most stuff works with the known limitations, and it runs stable.
    CHANGELOG: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=22708819&postcount=2


    WARNING: DON'T SELECT System Settings / Wireless&networks More / Tethering&Portable Hotspot / Portable WIFI-Hotspot!!! It will freeze/reboot in cycle your phone!!! Use Barnacle + OpenGarden wifit tethering market apps instead, it works.
    - DON'T TRY 1080p or MMS size in Video recording please, it doesnt work, and after it will make exit the Camera app when you try to take picture. If you did, a Reboot will fix it

    - MUTE IN SPEAKER MODE CALLING DOESNT WORK!! Thanks BiggJurk for reporting. Going to look at this later.

    - DON'T switch the location gps satellite off in Sys setting/location!! If you switch it off and then later on, gps won't turn on anymore, till u reboot!!

    - skype doesnt send your picture just garbled, reception is good. Notes for Google hangout: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=22901207&postcount=327




    CREDITS:
    - kornyone for the kernel base
    - virtuous team for the Inquisition rom base http://www.virtuousrom.com/
    - Kernel was based off of Kornyione's kernel and kernel tree of romanbb. Credit goes to him for his masterwork. Thank you, Kornyone!
    Also to romanbb for his OC/UV kernel tree on github. Thanks!
    - Teslacoil for Nova beta launcher

    TRICKS HOW TO USE THIS ROM:

    - Gps tip http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=22762887&postcount=165

    - Pattern or other secure lock screen option: Use Menu button to wake the phone, otherwise you will have to Slide first before the secure unlocking.

    - Screen on (trackpad wake replacement): you can press Power button, but the Menu and Back button will also wake the phone (not the trackpad yet, to be fixed in keylayout/keychar).

    - Wifi tethering: read this: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=21409748&postcount=564

    - SDCard will be scanned only on the second boot after fresh install normally, so Music apps will see your music on the second time. After that works as it should.

    - symbols symbols key doesn't work, when set in keylayout it makes home button useless and doesn't work itself. Use Alt + Space instead (thx overhauling for the tip)

    - Forced 2d GPU - highly recommended to set this on in Settings/dev options, it makes most apps scrolling butter smooth, but some older apps might not like it (apps too small sized) (thx Overhauling)
    - Angry birds - you gotta tap/multitouch and zoom in/out in the starting screen first, to get it starting to accept taps. Otherwise, single touch taps wont do anything at start!!

    - Contacts look up: if on first setup after it, typing names doesnt look up contacts try this: "I can confirm that this worked for me to get contact search by name working correctly while composing an SMS. I removed my Google account from the sync menu, waited a few min, then added my Google account back in the sync menu."

    UPDATES:
    None since 1.1.3

    CHECK 3rd post for KERNELS and ADDONS (wifi calling)

    Useful:

    wireless tether for wifi tethering: barnacle tethering on market + https://market.android.com/details?id=android.tether, BOTH needed, read here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=21409748&postcount=564

    Screenshot app Just press Power + VolDwn exactly at the same time. If you want another way, look for Screenshot ER lite on market.

    sdcard pc mounting with usb workaround (COSTS MONEY!I'm not affiliated with it, just mentioning) this works with Pyr-O-Ice: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.protocol.x.USB&hl=en - mounting SDcard to PC and still can use it with the phone at the same time, and works flawlessly.... Also you can use a simple script instead the app: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=21210045&postcount=328

    KERNELS:

    - Slight UV fallback to this if troubles with Middle 2% battery spare

    - Middle UV fallback to this if troubles with Extreme 5% battery spare
    http://www.4shared.com/zip/Rs7eRSp4/pyr-o-ice-105-OCUV-kernel-v3-m.html

    CAREFUL WITH THIS LAST ONE, WONT HARM YOUR PHONE, BUT THE Undervoltage (while eats less battery) in many cases might cause reboot or blackout:
    - Extremely UV (careful with this, might cause screen blackouts on some devices) 8% battery spare
    http://www.4shared.com/zip/eZSDl5fa/pyr-o-ice-105-OCUV-kernel-v2-e.html

    From recovery, no wipe needed. ROM comes with the Slightly UV version.

    If you want more AOSP (htc camera is included in this rom, which is better in some ways, but some prefer AOSP look) then there's an AOSP looking ICS camera on market with Ads, which works pretty nice (after a second start, first it might freeze, second it should work from that on.)
