Really? You're telling me that you can get the same or better battery life on 4g as you can on wifi? And I don't mean putting it on 4g and leaving it sit and do nothing with the phone for 2 days.

I thought it was pretty common knowledge that using wifi instead of lte consumes less battery life.

Its not inconceivable to believe that a faster connection, one that keeps both the CPU asleep and the radio dormant more often than a slow radio, could actually improve battery life. For instance, WiFi vs 3g. I don't have the data, but then I'm not stating any theories as fact.

I have always found battery life to be at least 2x better on wifi over LTE. Even more if you have a weak signal.

I'm going off what I know since I've had the Thunderbolt from day 1, then G-Nex from day 1, and now the DNA for the past couple months. On LTE the Thunderbolt and G-Nex both had their battery drain much quicker when they were using LTE instead of wifi, and I'm not the only one to make that claim, many have. Now with the DNA it is better, I can actually get a full day out of my phone if I keep it on LTE. Maybe no one has published papers making these claims facts (it's a phone, not the next breakthough in science that people are testing in labs) but I can say, and so can many others, that their battery life is better when they are on wifi as opposed to LTE, whether its a proven fact or not.

Now, if you have a strong LTE signal and a weak wifi signal, than this may not stand true. But generally speaking, you will get better battery life on wifi because most people don't live right next to cell towers or get a full strong LTE signal.

What sms app are some of you using with this ROM? I can't stand the name lag with the stock sense sms app...

Tried handcent, go and texts a but they are all compressing MMS images too much.

Try downloading Textra. Its relatively new, its from the same people that make chomp sms. But its extremely lightweight, looks similar to stock, and super smooth with cool things like adding a quick reply when you click from the notification shade. I think its the best sms app hands down if your not one that needs to customize every single little thing

Auto Upload

In the camera app, the auto-upload setting does not show any service even though I have several installed. Any easy fix for this?

NM - Finally discovering the joys of Dropbox. Except for the price.

the lowest density you can use with sense is 400 iirc...maybe 390....if you want to use anything below that you need a 3rd party launcher

I always use a 380 with sense but now I'm using buzz launcher and I still get force closes whenever I set it to 350. I set it's to 360 and now it stopped but I'm not sure if that's because I froze sense or not

In Venom Tweaks > HTC Switching Animation: I changed a setting here and in Overscroll Glow color. Now I can't change either of them again, no matter how many re-boots. It will allow me to select other options, but it doesn't change anything.

Any suggestions? Thanks!

@nitsuj17 I think I've asked this before.. But, my old ears are pretty sensitive to the volume levels.. Here's the kicker.. Is there any way to get the steps lowered in between the levels of volume? Say, example, let's say the steps are 3 levels apart.. So from level 1 to 2 it takes 3 steps and is technically level 3...make sense? I need the smaller increments if possible.. Where switching from 8 to 9 is actually switching 1 step....

Am I correct in assuming that the updater in the rom won't be able to retrieve future updates anymore?

    Contributors
    nitsuj17, Vinchenzop
    ROM OS Version: 4.1.x Jelly Bean
    ROM Kernel: Linux 3.4.x
    Based On: Sense 4+

    Version Information
    Status: No Longer Updated
    Current Stable Version: 1.3.5

    You are not permitted to use/kang/take any files from ViperDNA for your own personal roms or projects whatsoever. Do not bother pm-ing to ask for permission, xda's sharing policy does not allow us to selectively share files. If you are making a mod/theme specifically for ViperDNA to share, then you are permitted to modify and package the files up for usage...that is the only exception.



    downloads.png
    Flashable OTA Updates:

    If you didn't get the OTA update, or simply want to store it on your SD card for future use, you can download it below. These are incremental updates, please flash the appropriate one based on your currently installed version.

    ViperDNA 1.3.3 to 1.3.5 flashable OTA.zip
    ViperDNA 1.3.4 to 1.3.5 flashable OTA.zip

    Kernels

    • Flash the boot image using fastboot before or after flashing the rom.

    Recovery

    There is no *perfect* recovery to use for flashing ViperDNA at the present.

    TWRP will (as of last time I checked) properly flash our OTA updates and "addons" from Venom Hub, but will not wipe data in aroma. To use TWRP with our rom, you must manually wipe data/factory reset on your own before installing the full rom (not on patches/ota's) because the wipe option in the rom install does nothing.

    CWR works with aroma wipe option, but not our OTA installs and hub "addon" installs. When prompted to reboot into recovery with both of these, you will get an error like:

    Code:
    no such path :SDCARD/blah blah blah install failed.

    This is to be expected since CWR doesn't support our install path. Just manually install the zip from sdcard/Download/whateverthezipisnamed.zip and click "install unstrusted zip" when prompted.


    Major bugs (high prioritiy):
    • None
    Minor bugs:
    • AOSP messaging app (aroma option) doesn't send/receive MMS messages
    To Do:
    • Fix aosp MMS messaging app

    faq.png




    Q: How do I install the rom?!
    A: Installation instructions above.


    Q: Whats the md5 for?
    A: It ensures, that the rom is downloaded correctly and completly to avoid weird issues when installing/using the rom. Google for "md5 sum checker" and you should find what you need.


    Q: My phone is stuck on the HTC splash screen
    A: Did aroma freeze and not full install the rom? Reboot to recovery, format /system, and reinstall rom w/ data wipe in aroma.


    Q: Whats the boot.img. Why we do we need to flash it?
    A: The boot.img is the kernel and have to be flashed if you want your rom running well. HTCDev Unlock doesnt allow to install the kernel directly when installing the rom in recovery, thats why you need to install in manually.


    Q: How do I check for an OTA update?
    A: Settings->about->software update.
    The "software update" feature directly from settings has been disabled (I'll remove it when I get a chance).


    Q: I tried to apply the OTA update, but got errors in recovery?
    A: Different recoveries on this phone will not recognize the predefined OTA path that the phone attempts to apply...don't worry, just proceed to manually install the update from /Downloads on your sdcard (if you get a signature verification warning, just click ok/apply anyway and proceed).


    Q: I found a theme or mod, will it work on this rom?
    A: It's NOT recommended to use mod/themes that dont clearly state, that they are compatible with this rom. Themes/Mods tend to use framework files or system apps which will brake features in our rom or cause bootloops.


    Q: My question is not listed here, what to do?
    A: Ensure you used the xda search, google and your brain before asking a question in the thread. If you cant find an answer yourself we will answer your question for sure! (-:


    Q: Whats that cm statusbar brighntess mod?
    A:


    Q: The cube effect isn't working on the app drawer
    A: The cube effect just appears when you swype from the all over the frequent to the download tab, and must be enabled in tweaks.



    Q: What are the correct sizes for the App drawer and notfication pulldown background?
    A: At least 720x1280, but preferably bigger.


    Q: What are the correct sizes for custom carrier logo or statusbar image?
    A: 200x200


    Q: Will there be CRT On/OFF support in the next release?
    A: NOT possible, because HTC changed some required code in their libs, that makes it impossible as of now.


    Q: Several HTC Widgets are missing - can't add them to my homescreen.
    A: Settings->apps->all apps: choose htc sense and clear data.


    Q: Why isnt there are OTA for every update?
    A: Because DNA roms are so large, anything over 50mbs (full roms are huge updates) really can't be sent to our OTA server, since it would use a HUGE amount of bandwith.


    Q: Changing Fonts is not working in Venom HUB
    A: Select mount system as read/write in Tweaks or adb remount your device


    Q: Can I flash/install/use mods for other viperRoms? They have awesome theme/mod threads.
    A: As a rule? no...We are the only xxdpi venom device, and most things aren't properly sized for our device from other phones. Also many of those mods flash framework changes, which are incompatible with this.


    Q: What is venom SidePanel/Smallapps?
    A: You can find an explanation HERE.


    Q: Can I make feature requests?
    A: You can always make recommendations/requests, but it doesnt mean we'll take them into consideration or can even realistically implement said feature.

    ViperDNA 1.2.0 is up for download in the op

    For FAQ and general support questions, please visit charliestheman's thread [INFO][FAQ]ViperDNA ROM Discussion

    Thread is temp locked, just so changelog and install instructions can be seen before getting pushed back a few pages by comments

    Install for S-Off Users
    Download rom
    transfer to internal sdcard
    wipe data/factory reset in recovery (option has been removed from aroma)
    begin rom install
    boot.img should flash w/ rom zip
    reboot

    Install for S-On Users
    same as above, however make sure to pull boot.img from rom zip or download from op
    boot.im will not install w/ rom
    after flashing rom (or before your choice)
    boot to hboot
    fastboot flash boot boot.img to install kernel

    after install kernel version should read:

    Code:
    root@android:/ # cat proc/version
    Linux version 3.4.10-ga02d2c6 (root@abm020) (gcc version 4.6.x-google 20120106 (prerelease) (GCC) ) #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue Jan 15 19:57:33 CST 2013
    root@android:/ #


    the included system write module from flar2 will allow system write access for those who are s-on (or should, let me know if its not for some reason)

    It is not recommended to use 1.15 kernels with this rom....yes the rom could be patched for it, but I really don't want to support those types of configurations.

    Venom SideBar/Small Apps Explained
    First to setup sidebar, find it in the app drawer, its called "Side Panel"

    attachment.php



    when you click on the app icon, it will load the launcher

    to switch between recent apps, regular applications and small apps, tap the view icon at the bottom or side of the launcher


    attachment.php


    to access the sidebar settings, long press on the view icon...

    you will be able to:


    • change position of the sidepanel (left, right, bottom of screen)
    • open the panel by touching area of screen
    • width of touch area (if you set it too big it might interfere with typing on kb)


    attachment.php


    you can select the default small apps and default regular apps to show in the sidebar launcher:

    do not update the small apps in the market if they prompt you to do so...they will foreclose as they are heavily modified to work with sense!

    heres how the panel looks in other angles as well:
