Desire S - Vibration not working? - HTC Desire S

Hello all, I have a problem with my DS. It does not vibrate, never. When I receive messages and calls.. I tried also to download vibrater-apps to check out if this was a problem of notification-config or a general problem.. not working with them too.
I'm on Endymion 3.4 with 2.1 kernel. Any help?
edit: it always worked with any rom, Endymion 3.4 too. I think it's not a rom-related problem..

Update: tried to flash the latest Gingerbread Miui ROM, it's no working too. I think thats an hardware issue..

restored S-ON, original sense 3.0 ROM by flashing a RUU.. I'm going to send it for warranty repair. Thanks anyway..

Hey,
same problem with the VoidU S v1.1a [Android 2.3.5 :: Sense 3.0] [GPS & BT Fixed]
Doesn't anyone have a clue ?
Try upgrading to the latest leaked modem. Link can be found in the dev section.
Also, what exactly is the problem you ate seeing when trying to get a fix w/GPS Staus app?

I am not getting any problem of this sort, brother.
If anything, GPS lock has improved dramatically as compared to the stock ROM.
I had actually commended the GPS long ago after i had installed the ROM. Here.
Though i must say that i'm still on the v1.1 as i never felt the need to upgrade...things are already so good on this ROM.
Not a SINGLE bother. Whatsoever.
Dunno why the GPS is bugging you.
See my post about the new stock 2.3.5 rom, I had similar GPS problems which were solved by this update that includes a new radio.

the RUU u specified is the 1 to install if you want the sense 3 update and everything 100% stock
Ok,
just to make this safe
you mean RUU_Saga_HTC_Europe_1.47.401.4_Radio_20.28I.30.085 AU_3805.06.02.03_M_release_199410_signed.
Do I also have to flash the Radio ? And what is AU ?
Do I flash the ROM same as costum roms?

yes that is the RUU to flash.
but before you do that u need to be sure you have bootloader ENG HBOOT-0.98.2000
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1113820
then you run the RUU.exe file on your pc and follow the on screen instructions.
this will return you completely to stock
Hi meinfreund,
What are the problems you are having with your navigation? I've been on VoidU and now MIUI and got my navigation running pretty well. Actually MIUI seems to be incredible with it's assisted GPS implemented settings.

I also had gps problems on certain 2.3.5 roms. Couldn't get the gps icon to even appear in the notification bar. No error messages when turning gps on though. Sound like your problems?
No need to go back to stock. Try Coredroid or CM7. I can confirm both work with gps. Also perhaps try LeeDrOid. Very close to stock look and feel but with some nice tweaks. Gps also working there too.

the icon appears and i got gps far outside the city, but when i grabbed it the signal was lost. Had to put it in front of the car to get the signal, very sensitive. I resetted gps data many times but that didn't change anything.
Before i started flashing ROMs, it worked pretty fine, in the cities too.
Actually I think that all the ROMs that I tried are not faster or better than the Stock I had before. So i'm a bit confused about what doing next?!
LeedrOid and Coredroid are from August. Aren't they a bit outdated?
Does an update of the Base and Kernel might has positive effects to the gps?
Because ther is an update for Desire S Official Sense 3.0 - [GRJ90] [2.3.5] OTA 2.10.401.4
@mimirom:
I tried MIUI too, same problem here

If you want navigation working why dont you use another stable ROMs like Virtuous Unity, VoidU1.1a etc. etc..
Reverting back to stock is something unusual after rooting. There are lot of candidates , Just pick one and hit the base..Keep Hitting

Read that Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0 will be released soon, can anyone say how long it usually takes to get a release of a new version such as ICS 4?
Would like to test that as well
Hey,
I now flashed the Cyanogenmod 7.1 and have big trouble with that.
GPS does not work as well as with the other ROMS (GPS fix can't even "fix")
But there are some more difficulties.. i cant call or get called by someone, the Homebutton does not work (after flash, it worked.. but after shutdown it doesn't anymore)
Apart from these problems, this ROM is very fast and nice looking!
Does one of you have an idea how long it takes until a shipped ROM of ICS is available when its released?
Hi I have also cm7.1 since stable release and not having your problems. Just csipsimple has some isues. Did you do wipe cache and data? Did you restore via titanium? I restored BT pairings and had to begin since clean system, cause BT didn't work correctly. I would give a try to flash radio.

in that case you should consider about the bad weather that can affect GPS receiver.
so you can try later whenever the weather becomes better?

[Q] Sensation with Revolution HD Glitch, please help.

I am running Mike's Android Revolution HD based on HTC Sensation "non-XE" HTC base ROM and am experiencing a strange glitch. I would have posted this in the developers section but I have under 10 posts.
I have a Rooted S-OFF Sensation running this ROM and it works very well, exept for one thing. When my TMOUS Sensation's screen turns off, I normally can just hit the top button and the unlock screen comes right up, but sometimes, the lockscreen does not come up and I am forced to pull the battery on my phone. This happenes about once every couple of days. I have tried wiping and reflashing to no avail.
Please help.

Hi,
Which ROM are you running,and with which kernel?
Clean install,upgrade,what have you wiped before you started.
You need to provide some more information,so that you can get the correct help.
Info
Mike's Android Revolution HD based on HTC Sensation "non-XE" HTC base ROM 4.1.6, I have tried wiping using Mike's Superwipe and reflashing this version (Newest version) twice, same issue, I am running 2.6.35.14-Sensation-faux123-v0.2.3r+ Kernel and my radio version is 10.58.9035.00p_10.15.9035.02_2. I flashed the newest radio listed for this ROM, oddly, it is suposed to be 10.58.9035.00u, I use T-Mobile so that could be affecting it.

Hi,
Thank you.
There are known issues with that kernel.
I suggest you try the latest kernel,which you can find in my signature.
Go into recovery,
Wipe your cache partition and dalvik,
Flash the kernel,(exactly like a ROM)
reboot and enjoy.
Flashed newest Faux Kernel.
I flashed the new kernel, and I also flashed your battery mod, looks great btw
One last question, isnt my baseband suposed to be U and not P? why does it say P despite the fact I flashed the newest one for this ROM? and will it negatively affect performance?

Hi,
Glad you like the mod.
Those letters in the radio just refer to the carrier,and do not affect the performance in any way.
Thanks!
Awsome, I really really apprechiate it.
Thank you!
hey shenoka.. how is it?
I am really annoyed with this rom... I used it for my desire hd and never had a problem with it.. since I started using it on my sensation mike screwed it up massively... He is too stubborn to use the bricked kernel which rips on the faux rubbish that he is using now. I switched over to insertcoin because of this massive stuff up. So many people have complained about it and it took him this long to fix it if he hasn't already. The faux kernel is a joke and has always frozen up and have to be rebooted on me even especially in the morning when u expect the alarm to go off but the stupid faux kernel doesn't think it should go off.
And this same problem was happening for me on the de version so it definitely has to do with the kernel.
Anyways enough of my frustration has been let off about this rom. How is the new 0.2.5.2 kernel? Because I know that the 0.2.3r was rubbish for me and still did the stupid screen not turning on. I'm not going back to this rom until I am certain that the kernel won't do this same thing again.
Also has anyone noticed that with this rom u also have to sometimes fight to turn off the screen because it turns back on when u only click the power button once? Doesn't happen on insertcoin.

Why so much hate for 2 devs that are giving their wares away for FREE? There are numerous posts (today & yesterday even) on the development thread discussing how this happens, the fact that yes it is the faux kernel that has the bug, and how to install bricked if you wish.
Your frustration is understood. Isn't it nice to have so many choices of ROMs/kernels for your phone for free? I think these devs deserve more respect.

Noone knows, try to reflash an early version of InsertCoin, and check if it still does not work, if it just works, stay with that version if you cant miss it.
If GPS still does not work, try flashing an RUU to check if it works then.
If it works, you can go further flashing again.
If it does not work by then, turn it in for repair
have fun
I have the same problem with insertcoin, haven't found the solution yet.
Where'd you find InsertCoin 4.0? I just updated to 3.4.3 last night.

[Solved][Q] HyperNonSense ICS v1.2 Lockscreen light flash

Hi,
since i can't post to Android Development Thread, i have to ask here.
I have installed V1.2 over V1.1 without Superwipe. All is going well.
Not using my sensation, i noticed that the lockscreen light is turning on for about a second every few minutes.
Does anybody have this issue ?
I will try a superwipe and fresh install to see if its gone.
Greetz
Daniel
PS: Thanks kristofpetho for your great work. I'm using your ROM since Android 2.3.x versions
Hi.
I'm not having this problem but I super wiped. Also I use the SebastianFM's kernel. meby that has something to do with it.
Solved
It has gone after Superwipe.
Thx
