Because the base Rom has no hardware keyboard, adding differnt languages is a challenge. We have dusscussed adding additional languages and may do so in the future

Okay so after 3 reboots lol, its giving me number next to swap in adb.

I don't see any change in the amount of free ram in the task manger, so is it working in the background?

After. Installing the ROM undoes the swap settings. At least that is how I did it.

Hi everyone.

First, great job with the rom, it's as smooth as I'd hope it would be, and the little new things with sense 3.5 are nice.

I have one issue though, hopefully I haven't missed something and won't look like an utter moron, is that I can't select "silent" for the default (or any other) notification sound. As far as I remember I could do that with Unity, and it looks like it's also something possible with the retail sensation rom.

Am I the only one with this issue, or is there some new way to disable a notification sound (volume is not a solution, I want some notifications to work, but not all of them) that I didn't find?

Edit: I can choose silent in Gmail for example, but not in the HTC applications.

This ROM is just wonderful, but: Which .apk shoud I use to unleash full power of the hardware? I have tried OCUVBeater 2 v1.5 and I got repeating reboots. Uninstalled it and everything is OK. But I want some user friendly interface to set OC as needed. Please help.

This is frickin' great, thank you very much for the release.

Recently Virtuous 2.0.0 caused problems (not receiving calls, not being able to call, both randomly and resolved after a reboot; still receiving SMS for missed calls.....) so I switched to CM7, but absolutely hate the people/contacts app... so I'm really happy there's a new Sense ROM :D (even though I use Go Launcher and none of the Sense widgets, nearly none of the apps :p )

So far I found that the hardware keyboard only supports English, but most of the time I type German on it. Already saw that you guys discussed about this, nice to see.

Later tonight I'll try adding (part of) the htcIME from my old virtuous 2.0 ROM to get more dictionaries working, will post if I have any success.

Thank you again :)

Kind regards,
Sub

    Setting up a swap partition

    This guide will walk through how to set up a SD card swap. SD card swap allows your SD card to become a place where your physical memory can become virtual memory thus helping free up more physical memory . This is most likely needed in 512 mb devices running Virtuous Unity. This guide has in mind that you have knowledge of ADB. If not you may follow the alternate way, but I have not personally tried that way. If you would like to know more about ADB and how to set it up please go to ]this guide by theunlockr.com: http://theunlockr.com/2009/10/06/how-to-set-up-adb-usb-drivers-for-android-devices/.
    Warning - Using swap will reduce the life of your sdcard. Sdcards only have a finite number of R/W cycles and using swap means that the sdcard is written to a lot more than it would under normal use. I recommend doing regular backups of your sdcard as we will accept no responsibility for damaged cards or lost data.

    *Please back up everything on your SD card before going forward, I’m not responsible if you do not follow this step and loose everything on your SD card or if your phone is killed in anyway.

    * Please Upgrade to Clockworkmod to 3.0.2.6 or newer before making the partition

    1) Please boot into Clockworkmod Recovery (CWM, CWM Recovery). Once there go to Advanced-->Partition SD card-->Ext and Swap partition sizes. You will want to pick 128 mb for ext and 256 mb for swap partition.

    2) Reboot into your ROM and place this http://dl.dropbox.com/u/32936737/swap_enabler.sh script into the root (not with in any folder) of your SD card.

    Once there you can go two directions. Direction A is through ADB, Direction B is through the terminal emulator.

    3a) Type these commands in the command prompt:


    Code:
    adb shell
    chmod 755 /mnt/sdcard/swap_enabler.sh
    sh /mnt/sdcard/swap_enabler.sh
    3b) Type these commands in the terminal emulator (You can find this on the market)


    Code:
    su
    chmod 755 /mnt/sdcard/swap_enabler.sh
    sh /mnt/sdcard/swap_enabler.sh

    Please reboot your phone after the script is done

    4) Verifying that it works. Please choose 4a if you used ADB and 4b if you chose terminal emulator.

    4a) If you’re using ADB type these lines in the command prompt


    Code:
    adb shell
    free

    4b) If you’re using terminal emulator type these lines in the emulator:


    Code:
    su
    free

    If you did not get a bunch of 0s that means it is working, Congratulations.
    __________________________________________________________________________________


    The following code will not update partition tables on sd card, it will just switch off the swap in the system

    If you want to do this enter these lines in the command prompt (If using ADB)

    Code:
    adb shell (skip if you're already in adb shell)
    sh /mnt/sdcard/swap_enabler.sh disable

    If you want to undo using the terminal emulator do
    su
    sh /mnt/sdcard/swap_enabler.sh disable
    Code:

    Very good job Men. Its the best Rom i tried yet.

    in the "BeatMod BlissSense Hybrid" ist a "shortcut&clock - wIdget)
    Is there a chance to integrate in yours Afinity?

    I tried it sharing with thitanium backup but then i only see the wheter animation without shortcuts an clock...

    It will be included in a future release. Currently it is buggy on runnymede roms as it is not a widget that comes as part of the rom.
    We are working to fix the bug a hope that it will make it in to the next release.
