yeah, i know what you mean... htc is overlaying that ridicioulus phone_photo_mask.png over low-res contact photos, so they dont look pixelish.... :silly:

so you can replace that png with a transparent one in phone.apk, contacts.apk and idlescreen_base.apk and you´re good ;)

if i have time i´ll upload a flashable zip in venom theme thread...

cheers

Please announce here also if you decide to make a zip.

I'm having a strange issue during calls where the phone goes into loud speaker mode when I tilt it like, 5 degrees or so. Its crazy - are other people having this issue? I searched the thread and found nothing... The screen turns on too, and I've hung up on people with my ear (may even be that my ear that turns on loudspeaker and the problem is just that the screen is turning on?)

Also...

I know I'm new around here, but this thread is far too big and dated to use search function properly... Eg, search for kernel, battery life, anything like that and posts from MANY versions ago will pop up, which are not relevant to the current rom in any way... Would it make sense to cull some posts? While using viperx 4.0 anything, working or not, from previous versions is generally irrelavant. Do people agree?

I don't recall hearing about the loudspeaker issue either. But the proximity issues and screen rotation, etc. are fixed in the next release. :) :thumbup:

Maybe the rotation issue is causing him to push the loudspeaker button with his earlobe?

I think it might be related to the Sense "flip for speaker" feature. You could try turning it off in settings - sound and see what happens?

I was getting a lot of the same issues on the initial release. Just gotta be a little more patient. The beta team is still going back and forth a lot with Rich on bugs. We are doing quite a bit of testing though and getting there. It will be one hell of a release though. :D :thumbup:

Had a quick look but couldn't find any solution.

CAMERA PROGRAM

It was working fine until few hours ago... Now camera closes second after I open it.

Tried reinstalling the ROM again with only cash wipe. Also tried installing alternative camera app from play store... Still no luck.

Any solution without completely wiping the phone?

There a great chance that there is a problem with your g-sensor install g-sensor debug from play store to check it's functionality . If it's true I check my tuturial to get it back it's on help q&s section

Have you tried clearing the camera cache. I did have this once but I had to send it for repair. As I tried everything even a factory reset (when on stock) it worked fine for a bit then crashed again.

Seems like g-sensor is the problem.
g-sensor debug app doesn't show any information uploadfromtaptalk1379170959775.jpg

Yeah, tried this but no luck.

Wish there was an app or flashable zip that would clear g-sensor data or force start it.

Try my Tutorial here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2420209 , you may need to repeat it couple of time but eventually your sensor will go back , mostly depending on heating your system

That isn't a tutorial, nore is it in any way accurate, g sensor has nothing to do with heat, just placebo. It's a hardware fault, my g sensor works on all roms with all kernels, furthermore I'm sure it's not convenient to go threw all these steps just to take a picture. Buy anew phone or buy a camera.

This is a thread about the ViperX 4.0.0 rom, it's not a thread about a random guys camera not working, post in the correct section next time.

A lot of people confirmed this way working fine for them , AND there is no need to buy a camera for like 200$ just because of a broken sensor as long there is a chance to revive it back , AND there nothing wrong with helping people that are asking for help even if they placed their questions in the wrong forums . ALL forums here at XDA were meant to help developers and users to have a good experience with their phones

AND its not helping here to tell everyone here with any kind of fault whether it hardware or software to buy a new phone or buy a camera

    WELCOME TO THE OFFICIAL VIPER X JB FAQ





    The aim of this post is to answer the common questions related to VIPER X JB :good:

    This is catered to the ever present, NEW BORN NOOB to the SEASONED SERIAL FLASHER :p

    PS: I am not going to explain how to setup ADB and where to find HTC Sync drivers, there are TONS of threads and if you're really lazy, just GOOGLE IT!!!!!



    Without further a doozie, lets get the FAQ on with things :highfive:

    FAQ

    Q: Sweep to Wake not working.
    A: No custom (htc source)kernel for that yet.​

    Q: Missing C in Clock/Weatherwidget
    A: Known issue.. fixed in 3.3.3OTA​

    Q: After installing OTA i cant go into recovery.
    A: Remove OTA.zipp from SD sd/download/​

    Q: Changing Fonts not working
    A: Select mount system as read/write in Tweaks​

    Q: Lag in Appdrawer
    A: Disable transparency​

    Q: OTA doesn't flash in Recovery
    A: Try to use recommended TWRP recovery​

    Q: Can I flash Viper X JB on my HOX
    A: YES, provided you have a HOX with at least HBOOT 1.31 (1.36/1.39 RECOMMENDED)​

    Q: How do I get HBOOT 1.31/1.36/1.39?
    A: HBOOT 1.31/1.36/1.39 are UNFORTUNATELY CID dependant!!!!​

    Q: CID you SAY?? What BLASPHEMY is this you speak OF????
    A: It is your Customer ID, this is based on where you purchased your HOX (VodaFone, Car Warehouse, Crack Dealer, ETC ETC)
    They are not universal and are not supplied by your local hook up and there is nothing Team Venom can do to change that.​

    Q: How do I check my CID?
    A: Use THIS simple app​

    Q: My CID is among the privileged few what now???
    A: Check THIS thread for the safest and easiest way to upgrade your HBOOT to ViperX JB compatiblity.
    Once on the needed HBOOT, you may flash ViperX JB and ENJOY a REAL CUSTOM ROM​

    Q: I used OMG SUPER MOD zip on ICS Viper, will it work on JB Viper.
    A: NO, unless your developer has updated the MOD/APP for 3.14.401.31 base it wont work.
    ViperX also has an extensively modified framework-res.apk and any mods that modify this apk WILL break VenomTweaks.​

    Q: My battery drains fast/look my battery stats
    A: If you want to discuss batterystats/usage (on custom kernels in the future) Go to Goku80,s thread


    NB: I will update this FAQ as time permits will more info related to questions regarding ViperX JB and ViperX ICS, this is as much as I am able to do tonight.​
