Hello guys, the question might sound stupid, but i failed to find an answer anywhere. After upgrade 2.3.3 to 2.3.5 with sense 3.0 (I used prerooted rom by adidas http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1183684) My system "contacts" app appeared in Russian, and my calculator app is not well resized to look well on desire s. Please advise if it is possible to extract or find anywhere these apps in original IN ENGLISH and flash them to my current ROM system.
many thanx in advance
Hey,
well, I think that the calculator app is sized correctly. It's the way HTC designs it, first I also thought it's false but it isn't.
And for the contacts app, you may look here and extract the APK. Or better replace your rom with that from Proxuser if you want stock experience. It's a bit tweaked (kernel, other things).

But you can also look for Hyperion, one of the greatest 3.0 Sense Rom's I've tested so far

Guys I'm a newbie in this forum so please guide me which rom is better.........dexter's froyo or that one of khalpowers.
I'm totally confused.And if someone could tell me that if I install one of these roms
will the installed apps and other data like contacts or stuff will remain or be removed.
Please also state the disadvantage of these roms as compared to the stock 2.1
For russian speaking users i recommend RusMod.
For everyone else - use Khalpowers mods with mine kernel from fastboot.
Or Dexter's 1.3 with Mioze7ae patch.

they all good for me ,just have to choose which one suits you ,Dexters is the original Froyo and others is optimization based on the Dexter's rom..if you like the Original one ..choose Dexter..or elase..you can try others
i think you should try the Froyo of Khalpowers ,it's base on Dexters and xavwanted's and it's the latest froyo till now..many user discuss about the khalpowers and you can get more help in the froum.
"if I install one of these roms
will the installed apps and other data like contacts or stuff will remain or be removed."
yes ..coz after you finished installation of Froyo ..you need to wipe everything ..so eveything on your phone Memory will gone..(everything in SD card ..Photo,vdo,songs..etc..is fine)
"Please also state the disadvantage of these roms as compared to the stock 2.1"
1. you can use flash in your web browser watch youtube in webpages..(performance not good lag.. due to the CPU ti 3440 and ram 256..)
2.you can move your apps to your sd and you can play bigger games with large data
3. you can use many apps that require running on OS 2.2
4. you can use 3.5mm TV out...
i might be wrong in some point....so it's just my experience
Thanks for replying guys!
please could you explain me what does fastboot patch does and is it neccessary.
Also for enabling apps to sd in khalpowers rom do i have to do something else apart from creating a partition?
And how can i use hdmi cable to play games on tv with this rom??
help?
Guys one more thing
if i want to return to stock 2.1 I saw the video made by reveren the stock 2.1 file is of cincinati bell so would this create any network problems as i am not using cicncinati bell.
I know this must be a stupid question but please do answer!
How to use the 3.5 mm to mirror my phone on the tv....which wire is required?
Sent from my XT720 using XDA App
I need your help guys and devs for one problem. I had to downgrade from wildhero (2.3.3 sense) to 2.1 cuz I needed more stable rom for a few days. I choosed one and flashed it, but the market didn't show most of the featured apps, like Skype, My Tracks, Google Sky Map, Xda devs, Tapatalk and many more. I used Search and it's the same - they're not in the results.I thought its location problem but it isn, cuz after a lot flashing different roms I haven't any problems till now. Tried 3 different 2.1 sense roms - its the same - same missing apps. Now when I flashed back this wildhero 2.3.3 sense rom (ver1.2.1) everything is fine , like it should be. I think its 2.3.3 Sense problem , somehow it restricts old android`s version market.. its wired... could you help me somehow ?? please its important to know !!
The Android market will not display any apps which are written specifically for newer OS versions on older ones:
http://developer.android.com/guide/publishing/versioning.html
Man , I know that, Im not so stupid...Imagine you downgrade from Froyo to Eclair and when U open the Market - most of the usual apps U can see in Eclair are misiing. Thats whats going on here.
Hello, I just installed personaRedV4 ROM and I must say that I have solved many problems, the management of memopria seems great, the system is more fluid ....
but I have a vision problem on a red background, I wish I could even change the background of the market, for example, can not read the buttons to download, install, etc. ... the market for the app.
I read that installing GalaxyXT resolve some of these problems, but I have installed the V4 and should have already understood the GalaxyXt. But I still see the red background.
One last question, what do you think the best roms for XT720?
also exists here in the forum or a list of the Roma out so far?
Thank you all for your attention ...
ps I tried searching the forums for an solution to my problems, but I'm not good at English ....
I used google translator, ... ....

theres lots of roms for our phone now. you can look for the roms in the android development section of this forum for our phone. there's first of all dexters froyo rom, then khalpowers v4 roms which are heavily optimized and themed, then there's fjfalcons RusMod rom which is similar to khals rom except for the themes and its also in russian. there's also the MIUI rom which its interface looks slightly like the ios's. i like the lockscreen and the snappiness of this rom, but not the rest of the interface. currently im just rooted on stock 2.1 which im very happy with (i dont use flash much) because theres no bugs at all, and has a pretty good battery life compared to the custom roms. there's also the wanhu rom and cincinnati bell rom, but i havent tried them out yet.

I would say if you want 2.2 Froyo all things working like TV out and fm radio then Khalpowers WanHU is the best choice for now but the stock special might be as well it is new. If you want just speed and stability then Khalpowers MIUI Final V4. If you want the best stability and responsiveness and don't mind 2.1 you can try Mioze7Ae's 2.1 Eclair strikes back V2 He's done a real good job tweaking that. As of now I am on The Stock XDA Special and it is really nice with only a few subtle minor bugs that are being worked on. When that is complete it should be the top choice. I am using 3rdstring's theme Darkfroyo remix and it is pretty awesome.
Thanks for your answers, I installed the ROM Xtmiuioptimized is fantastic, everything works perfectly, the only thing I have left the market earlier that the ROM is with the black background, and I do not know how to change it ....
thanks

Hi, I have recently rooted my Desire S, with revolutionary, clockwork etc, and I currently ported this rom HTC_DESIRE_S_2.3.5-2.10.401.4.zip
Everything is working just fine, but theoretically, when I decide to port a new rom, how would I know which will work, and which won't?
Actually, I'm waiting until ICS is released for desire s, so I can find it and install it...
Are there any methods to identify which rom would be compatible?
Thank you!

hey mate
your're actually talking about two different things: porting a ROM and flashing a ROM.
Porting means, you take a ROM from another device and modify it so it works on your device too.
flashing means, you take a ROM which is already optimized for your device
and install it, so you wipe the stock firmware and get a custom rom.
which of the two things is what you want to do? i think its just the flashing.
so you can take any ROM from the "development section", and if you follow the guides that you can find everywhere here im sure you will be succesfull and happy with it.
bytheway
there is no "best" ROM for your device. it all depends on what you need and want. there are alot sense 3.5 Roms, Endymion 3.4 is the one i would recommend. you can also try AOSP ROMs (android open source project, means no sense), cyanogenmod7 could be a good first choice. and you can also try ics right now, since there are at least 3 (?) ICS AOSP ROMs right now:
CM9, Virtuous Quattro RC3, IceColdSandwich
have fun!
Yes I meant "flashing" a rom
Thanks for all the information. That's the general idea I have as well, however I had this question because after I flashed another rom (official rom through htc sync - that could have been the problem) over my first flashed one , the phone was "bricked"....

i would never recommend to flash an official ROM over a custom ROM. But anyways, i think if you would have done a full wipe before flashing the official rom you wouldnt have got a "you call it brick"
a real "BRICK" is a useless phone, where there is no way to use it again.if there is still a way, its no brick.. but who cares about definitions
I recommend you to flash the ROMs only through recovery mode. AND ALWAYS DO A FULL WIPE BEFORE FLASHING A NEW ROM. very important
and dont forget to backup as always
Yes you are absolutely right. I'll have that in mind the next time I'll decide to flash a new one
Yeah the device wasn't completely useless, it hanged at boot...but I guess that was due to not following the right procedure as you previously described..
Thanks eyahl
Start flashing different roms and trying them for a day or two. First
Sens 3.0 and then sense 3.5 roms to see the difference. Only then you will know which rom is best for you.
+1 for Endymion 3.4,
+1 for Endymion
Swyped from my Desire S using XDA Premium
+1 Endymion
Sent from my HTC Desire S using xda premium
edymion, will try it

Each ROM type suits different personal tastes, so there isn't an 'best' ROM for everyone. Trial and Error which ones suit you!
General opinions:
Stock
Pro: Straight from HTC, *newest kernel/drivers*, least likely to have compatibility issues.
Cons: HTC is slow to release updates, and sense interface is usually resource hungry.
Sense-like
Pro: usually keep the Sense interface, but custom kernals offer speed / various other improvements.Runnymead versions are kernals ported across from HTC Sensation (which offer some of the goodies like Beats Audio etc. that were not originally developed for Saga.
Cons: Sense interface is resource hungry...
CyanogenMod based
Pro: offer lots of customisations
Cons: not the most user friendly
AOSP
Pro: Roms from the android source, usually less resource hungry, so lighter and faster.
Cons: Obviously, no sense.
ICS Alpha/Beta
Not strictly a new category, but builds from the new Android 4.0 (ICS).
Currently some things (like camera) isn't fully working yet.
Note: new Desire S may suffer from camera/video lag bug with non-stock / non-sense ROMs, this is due to HTC putting in new hardware / driver into the new DS phones and the other kernels not reflecting this change yet.
Personally, I use SenseMOD Lite V1.2 build 2 as it is one of the few AOSP like builds that don't have the camera bug. Oxygen would have been best choice for me but unfortunately camera bug makes it unusable.
Hey guys. I don't want to drive over your feet, but I think the OP is already very satisfied with all those replies. specially the post above is really trying to help, but you spend much time to type what has already been written on the first page.
I appreciate your intend to help, bit I think the OP isn't gonna read this anymore..
Btw: endy!...
