This ROM is based on the Tun4fish version of Desire_Gingerbread_Sense 1.2 by siulmagic (thanks a lot!!)
I modified this rom and mixing with other rom find in the original HTC Desire section in XDA. Thanks to all developers of original HTC Desire!

This is SENSE 1.9 with some little things from SENSE 2.1 like notification quick settings and notification last apps!!!

This rom is full multi language!!


I decided to make this rom because I love sense, I love speed and I love free ram for multi tasking.

The original tun4fish rom was great, but I decided to make a lighter and international version with some tweak for usability.

Please tell me if you find bugs!




~Changelog ~
V1.2
- This is V1.1 Fixed, working 100%
- Merging some feature with HyperSense Nova, from nexus One section in XDA! Thanks to the developer Iperzampem0, mine compatriot! :D
- VOLUME ROCKER SKIP SONGS!! (Like cm7) THANKS TO matheusvilela and Iperzampem0
- increased jpeg quality in camera
- fix little bug in htcAlbum
- com.android.phone fixed with patch (already present in v1.1, don't need to flash)
- removed usb debug icon (build.prop tweak)
- switch to unity V8 kernel, VDD UV!!

- market updated (play store now )
- su updated
- battery percentage
- loading circles from gingerbread style (no more froyo style)
- CLEAN CLEAN CLEAN!! no more major bugs apart classic sense 1.9 bugs (rosie landscape, 720p recording).

~Bugs ~
- Classic sense 1.9 problems: rosie landscape broken, 720p broken. - using lgCamera from market, 720p working -
- com.android.phone force close at startup: can't unlock sim if you use sim locking code - temporarily fixed with a patch installed in v1.1 or to flash over 1.0 (download section)!!

~ Planned for the future ~
1) Find a decent UV kernel without camera flash bug and 386mhz bug, to increase battery life
2) odexed and deodexed versions of the rom
- Port of HTC camera from original desire Z camera to sense 1.9 (very hard, but is the only feature I miss from sense 2.1)
- Volume rocker skip song (very hard with modding framework - probably with an app. The only thing I miss from CM)
- Fix landscape Rosie or prevent rotation (for sense 1.9, very hard)
- Reduce text size and list size in sense application
- Reduce text size in standard android application (like spare parts in CM7)


~ FIX ~
- v1.1 installing apk bug fixed: view single post tomorrow will do an update zip and "new version" 1.1.1

- NEW Sim unlock fix (com.android.phone FIXED!!) for 1.0: update_fix_sim_lock (the old one not working)
(after boot you have to wait 10 - 20 seconds before unlock your sim card, because you have to wait the script to kill com.android.phone, and wait android system to restart correctly com.android.phone. After some seconds you will notice that the signal return. After that you can unlock your sim with pin code).


- UV kernel (not tested so much, is unity v8 for desire HD but works on desire z): Unity V8 (thanks to mesaj report)

- Unity v10 kernel compatible, UV/OC, camera flash lag present in some phone: XDA-single-post (Tanks to 008325)
!!! In my DZ camera flash lag is present. If you use this kernel or others unity/rcMix kernel, please report if camera flash lag is present or not !!!

- Others kernels (not tested): link (thanks to mesaj report)

- keyboard backlight fix for 0.2 (OLD): KB_Backlight_Fix by tun4fish (will miss multi language on lockscreen and notification date)

thanks so much!
I'll take a look to virtuous irc and I'll pm you if I need help.

My problem is found a place where to understand basics things on the rom porting and editing of framework/apk, because in xda or searching on google I can't find so much.. Hope virtuous irc is what i need ;)

Hey, did you tried with flashing unity v10 kernel? maybe this will help, I see you have v5 kernel already, so maybe newer could hopefully solve some problems.

Affinity uses this kernel, so you can find it there or someone may post link to flashable zip with kernel only.

Yeah, but new unity kernel have a lot of strange problems in ALL roms:

1) Camera flash lag:
When you use camera flash and CPU speed is not at 384mhz, the flash have a lag (is faster, cause is syncronized with clock speed i think).
Only at 384mhz works well.

2) 384mhz issue:
384mhz isn't really 384, but ~ 800mhz.
frequencies > 384 and < 800 are worse than 384mhz.
So CPU will jump from 250mhz to 384 (that are 800mhz) and then to 480mhz, 520, 614, 700.. 800.. 900..

245 - 800 - 400, isn't a good thing.. also UV is bad for this reason, I made a patch for setCPU to disable freq > 384 and < 800, but is only a stupid patch for making UV and have good performance. The problem persists and you can't have good scaling with that kernel.


I tried that kernel on Virtuous sense 2.0.0 and Android Revolution HD 7.0.2.. same issue!

Also last unity kernel have that issue.. I don't understand why no one noticed that :confused:

I would love to take a look to unity v10 and rcmix v12 kernel, but I have never read linux kernel, and i think it isn't easy to understand if you do not know where are the important parts of code..

Edit:
I just flashed unity kernel.. camera flash lag is here out of 384mhz, and 384 performs like 800mhz..
btw this bug is present also in RCMIX v12.. same bug, same part of code, I think..
I can't find source of unity v10 and rcmix (I only found source of unity v6)

This is great! Thanks! I'll let you know what bugs i find!

So far I have only needed to wipe the data for the market to get it to stop force closing =)

Edit: it's also got the classic GB Sense Orange LED bug. Pretty minor stuff. I think Siulmagic figured that one out. He's moved on to the G2x, but he might help us out with that one.

Lightflow from the market is a temp workaround for it. I think you just install it and enable it and it turns the led off after a few seconds.

Thank you! I'll make same test when I get time.
In the original rom by Siulmagic this bug is fixed, I have to check if the tun4fish rom introduced that bug or it's my rom only.
I think the bug is in the framework or something similar.
I'll find where is the problem and I'll try to fix using the incriminated file from the original siulmagic rom (without that bug)

Today I've discovered that my phone has powered down twice.

I deleted com.htc.launcher because I use Nemus Launcher, but I'm going to restore it and see if it happens any more. Besides that, I've done no other modifications besides reinstalling apps.

I'll let you know if I find this happening any more.

Using this rom I don't notice similar issue, but I changed kernel to unity v9.

BTW let me know if the problem returns.

---

Now I'm making Light Sense 0.2.
I'll remove orange led bug, brightness "bug" and the green glow overscroll that I don't like.
I have modified framework-res.apk to create a new charge animation because the old was ugly IMO.

I hope to introduce other things. I would love to prevent rosie rotation..

Those all sound like good changes to me! Never really liked the overscroll glow effect anyway.

After a few days on this, I'd say this rom has some of the important features of sense (contacts/social integration) with the speed and multitasking of aosp. Good stuff.

Good idea to make a real fast and clean sense ROM. I allways wonder why people only developed those laggy sense 3.5 roms. If the bugs are all sorted out i'll take a tour!

I'm having some problem in editing framework-res.apk.
I think the problem are the permits or something similar.
Now v0.2 boot with chmod on framework-res.apk, but miss some feature of An-Droid rom, because mixing the framework I can't boot.

I'll find a solution in some days.

Is trackpad wake still going to be enabled, and only trackpad unlock removed?

regarding framework-res.apk, are you simply replacing the image files for the charging animation? If so, make sure the names match exactly, and that there are the same number of files after. If there are extras, I don't think it matters, but less will break it. I think.

I'll see if I have time to try and find a tidy solution to removing the overscroll glow.

Thank you =JKT=
Now I'm at work to finish the new version
I hope to upload v0.2 in some hours ;)

PS: trackpad wake is here, removed only trackpad unlock.
PPS: uploading now on minus. Now I go to sleep, tomorrow will post the direct link for version 0.2 :D for now use my minus page, you will see 0.2 when upload is done.

big news in this version!! Led bug is gone, new stuff from sense 2.1, for now only deodexed, for now battery percentage is gone (give me some days to re insert this as flashable update)

    Just wanted to add my 2 cents about this ROM: it is, simply put, outstanding. It is far smoother than any Sense 2.1 based ROM, yet IMO has no fewer features (unless you count those "scene" and "skin" scrollable previews). The Sense 2.1 style quick settings and latest apps addition is a great bonus, and battery life is almost as good as G-Lite. Thank you nagash91 for providing this excellent ROM!

    PS. I am in the camp of people who would welcome a fully Odexed version of the ROM, more speed and efficiency can only be a good thing ;).

    I will odex the rom when I'll release a complete working rom: I have to fix sms issue and I don't know how to do. When I have some time to dedicate to this I'll try to switch frameworks to understand what is the problem.

    BTW I have bought LgCamera Pro, it's working perfect on a lot of roms with camera issue (also on ICS, I can take video recording at 960x720p, not 1280x720p but that's something :D).

    With LgCamera in this rom you can take video at 1280x720p. I don't remember if you can change focus during video recording with lgCamera with lightSense (with htcCamera you can't.. :( this is a big feature of sense 2.1 that I can't port to sense 1.9).

    The feature that I miss from sense 2.1 are (in order of importance):
    1) 2.1 camera
    2) lanscape rosie (I personal would prefer locked portrait rosie, will work for this in this rom)
    3) 2.1 calendar list widget (you can exclude/include calendars from widget)
    4) 2.1 gallery (does not change much but have some cool feature, I use quickPic)
    5) 2.1 theme (only that theme black and squared .. I forgot the name :D)
    6) 2.1 application launcher

    I hope to come back to this rom in future, priority is sms bug fix :D
    I also have on site "lightICS", based on AOSP (for now based on virtuous Quattro, compiled from AOSP).

    If you someone want to help me see the link in my signature :good:
