[ROM][RC4b][10.09.2011] Gingerbread 2.3.3 with HTC Sense 2.1+

[ad2003]

Hi ogo,
A2SD Scripts by Darktremor worked great on rc3, how can I activate it on rc4b - thanks! Ad

nevermind - found the solution

but another thin:

everytime I do reboot, I get an error: com.htc.launcher it crashes and the HTC logo appears. Than everything runs as it should...but maybe there's a fix for that? thx

Hi ogo2 i think your rom is awesome!. just needs the wifi on the go and it will be perfect!. Meanwhile i read that you weren't having luck with the wildfire s rom. I found this on the salsa forum hope it helps!

Also if you have the time you could add the cm7 fm-radio on the rom it has a cleaner look than spirit fm. Cheers!! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1434829

CM7 FM.app doesn't work. I have already tried to port it to this rom.

 

[mr mister]

Ok thanks for your reply. So the CM7 FM was compiled to work only on CM7 roms right? For it to work on your rom the app would have to be compiled for sense?.

[Solved] Carrier name/operator name Incorrect.

hello all, I am really excited about what "I" have done, for my situation I have solved my carrier name issue.

I did lots of reading about various issues with carrier name issues others have had, and got a lead on someone hex editing a libril.so to change the carrier name.
So learned a bit about the build.prop and a bit about libhtc_ril.so/libril.so and what they do.

I didn't want to hex edit the libhtc_ril.so, so I compaired the files in OGO's rom with devils 2.3.7 gingerbread (this one showed carrier name as "3G 3" which I liked so wanted to make it the same) and discovered that rom only has 2 *ril*.so files, so I cheated, after some trial and error I replaced the libhtc_ril.so file in OGOs with the libhtc_ril.so file from devils, rebooted my phone and my carrier name is now correct!!!! and showing up as "3" and Mobile data is also working
GO ME!!!!!!

Attached is the zipped libhtc_ril.so I used just unpack it and replace the original (backup original first of course)

I hope this helps someone else having issues.

Edit:- Another little tweek I have done is to add the line

ro.ril.enable.3g.prefix=1

to the build.prop, this adds the prefix of "3G" to the carrier name when the network is 3G, so in my case it shows as "3G 3" on 3G and "3" on 2G.

Snip
Thanks

[solved] Auto Dimming, Better settings

Ok, quite a while ago, I was Whining about the auto dimming feature not being so good in this rom (or any other htc based rom), I personally have modified the original framework-res.apk for what I think are really good settings. (lots of testing)

I actually did this ages ago and have decided to share my changes with you all seen as there isn't much going on with this rom ATM. (Plus I was a bit shy publishing my work)

There should be an attachment called "framework-res.apk" just replace original (backup your's first)

Edit:- Sorry I made a Noobs error, my new framework-res.apk was compressed so just reposted an uncompressed version



What is modified you ask?

I decompiled the framework.res.apk
went to /res/values/
opened arrays.xml

and changed the values to these ones below

<integer-array name="config_autoBrightnessLevels">
<item>11</item>
<item>41</item>
<item>91</item>
<item>226</item>
<item>321</item>
<item>421</item>
<item>641</item>
<item>1281</item>
<item>2601</item>
</integer-array>
<integer-array name="config_autoBrightnessLcdBacklightValues">
<item>10</item>
<item>10</item>
<item>34</item>
<item>54</item>
<item>100</item>
<item>150</item>
<item>199</item>
<item>227</item>
<item>255</item>
<item>255</item>
</integer-array>
<integer-array name="config_autoBrightnessLcdBacklightValuesUp">
<item>10</item>
<item>10</item>
<item>34</item>
<item>54</item>
<item>100</item>
<item>150</item>
<item>199</item>
<item>227</item>
<item>255</item>
<item>255</item>
</integer-array>
<integer-array name="config_autoBrightnessLcdBacklightValuesDown">
<item>10</item>
<item>10</item>
<item>34</item>
<item>54</item>
<item>100</item>
<item>150</item>
<item>199</item>
<item>227</item>
<item>255</item>
<item>255</item>

(I have also done one for Blay0's Froyo with the exact same vaules, obviously its not the same framework-res.apk)

That's it folks
I haven't had any issues my self, so unless you have other custom mods to the framework-res.apk you shouldn't either.

P.S. I should point out that this is the original OGO's framework-res.apk only modded for auto dim.

Sync

Hi, i been using this rom for quite some time. Its a great rom. But i have one strange issue with sync. Let say i uncheck 'Sync Contacts' under Google account in Accounts & Sync setting, then upon reboot, my legend forget this setting and i need to uncheck it again. This happens to all accounts in my Accounts&Sync. Anyone have any solution?

[Possible solution] Dialer battery drain issue.

Edit:- I'd like to point out I am at 15 hours and 50 mins from full charge and still have 53% charge left..
Edit #2 :- 20hours 21mins on battery 34% remaining 2 30 min phone calls & about 1hour 30 mins browsing internet.

Hello all, for those still using ogo's rom and having battery drain issues caused by the "dialer", I think I might have found a solution, in the build.prop file there is a line,

# try to disable proximity sensor in call by default
#gsm.proximity.enable=false

After I removed the # to make the line read
# try to disable proximity sensor in call by default
gsm.proximity.enable=false

My battery life seams to be much better and dialer is "not" using 90% power any more.

Only side effect to this mod is the screen doesn't go off when you hold it up to your ear anymore, but you can press the power button for manual screen off instead, the screen seams to go off after the preset screen off time (so long as you don't touch the screen).

Please, we need some others to make the change and confirm this...
Thanks

I would like to try this but have no idea how to find or change this setting. Can you post a guide please.

Thanks

Hi I am @ work so don't have much time the build.prop is in /system, if u are s-off just edit the file directly in a text editor on your phone then restart your phone. S-on is a bit harder, no time at the moment.

Quick Guide to change the build.prop for S-On users (Key points)

connect phone to PC
restart phone into Clockworkmod Recovery
on the phone, goto mounts and storage and mount /system folder
on pc open android commander (easiest meathod to access files on phone)
goto /system folder on your phone
copy build.prop across to your local pc HD
edit the build.prop file on PC & remove the # from the line in my previous post
save file
copy edited build.prop back to android /system folder
restart phone.......

hi,
is a2sd in this rom?

hi,
is a2sd in this rom?

Darktremor a2sd beta 4 script only works for RC4 version, I'm currently using the script and everything runs fine

 

[ranger4740]

OK, now It seams the dialer battery drain issue has been worked around, I have now noticed that having Bluetooth turned on but not connected (haven't used Bluetooth device on ogo's rom since my changes) but not connected is also draining battery really quick. Other rom's like cyanogen do not drain battery like that.
Obviously the solution is to leave Bluetooth off... From reading other threads and posts this is possibly due to bad bad driver implimentation?
Something to think about...

Its very hard for developers to implement drivers for bluetooth, wifi and so on because HTC wont release the required code. Thats the main problem. Samsung for example makes the code avaliable. So whatever ogo has done he did a great job.

Don't get me wrong, this is a fantastic rom, ogo has done a wonderful job and given that HTC are a mean lot of people (words not strong enough but I won't type rude words in an open forum) and won't do the right thing and release the code for legend when they have obviously washed their hands of it proven by the fact that they won't provide any more updates, well does make life hard....

Sorry to report, but the stock messenger and contacts are working without issue on my phone, I have my contacts saved on the phone but not on sim card, a place to look for possible issues...
I don't use the stock messenger only go SMS pro.
