[Q] How to help solving bugs ? - HTC Sensation

at this time, my sensation got InsertCoin 5.2.0
I found (possibly) a bug, and I'd to know if someone got the same one.
When I set my lockscreen with a wallpaper picture (different from my desktop one), nothing happens, and I still have my desktok one.
Can you tell me if it is right, or if I missed something.
If it is a bug, how can I spare this bug with the dev ?
thank you

[Q] Help Request: Simplism ported for Dx?

So, I'm new to the forums (Hi), but I've been messing around with my phone well before i registered (rooted, deo'd, custom notification bar, ect). I'd like to see if anyone here has the ability to either help me with a project, or just to point me in the right direction. What I'd like to do, is port the lockscreen, notification bar, and (if possible) call answer screen from the Simplisim theme for the HTC Desire to the droid X. Simplism can be found in the Desire subform here, I just can't link to it yet...
I'm not sure where to start - I also posted in that thread. I'm currently working on the notification bar (The easy part ). Anyone have any ideas? ^_^

Im game to help, i wont be able to work on it till sunday though, but where do you want me to start. Or what do you need me to teach you to do
i would also love to see this and simplistic in the general android section i love that theme. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=739804
Well, I'm already working on the statusbar up top... icons and looks and whatnot. I'll probably get to editing the XML and fonts soon. The REAL issue, at least for me, is how to get that sexy lockscreen and/or call answer screen on the Dx. Any ideas?

[Q] Help needed - strange framework modding problem

Sorry if this has been posted before, but I couldn't find anything regarding this sort..
So to the question. I have been modifying my framework (and apps) (CM 2.2.1) to get a Gingerbread-like look. Everything else works well but when I pull notifications open, there is a strange shadowy gradient on top of the notifications - and I can't find out why! The graphics seem to be all right, but when I use a framework from another ROM/theme that is GB-themed, there's no such thing. Is there something in the xml files that could cause this?
Screenshots attached.
Details:
HTC Magic 32A
Based on CyanogenMod nightly 307
If someone has time and will, please help me

Anyone interested in a near-working Wildfire S "port"?

I found a guide that mentions basic Sense porting to another Sense device. I tried this with this Wildfire S ROM for a few reasons:
--I prefer the "standard" HTC Sense as found on any other device (ie. Black status bar, black apps, etc.)
--I wanted to see how well it'd run
--I wanted to see if there'd be any problems with anything
After following the above guide, I notice only the following bugs:
--Camera is upside down
--Rosie keeps force closing because of forced landscape orientation so I have to use an alternate launcher
--Lockscreen is always in Portrait no matter what
--Keypad backlights don't turn on
--Facebook button doesn't work (duh)
--(New)GPS doesn't work - need to mess with GPS libs when I have more time
--(New)The FM Radio app's graphics are messed up
To try and fix the Rosie problem, I tried copying over the Rosie.apk and Rosie.odex from the Chacha's 2.3.5 OTA, but no dice, the system doesn't even see it.
Anyone have any tips on how I could fix any of the above? I'm no dev, and I only tried this for (basically) the fun of it to see how it'd turn out and my "experience", so to speak, only goes as far as swapping files here and there - I felt like the Development forum was the best place to post this. Apologies if it isn't.
good attempt! nice to see to back into work. May be some developers can help you out.
I would like to apologize first, as it is 08:19 in the morning and I'm already drunk. lol.
Well, let's start with the easy bits:
1. --Keypad backlights don't turn on
Mainly the thing is that the Wildfire S ROM does not have support (or it is not activated) for a physical keyboard; therefore the need for backlight is redundant. To fix this you will either have to manually add the code lines or un-comment them. I suggest talking with adlx or xdbg since both of them have implemented this feature in the two custom ROMs.
2. --Facebook button doesn't work (duh)
As above, the ROM doesn't know (or doesn't want to know) about the physical keyboard. Same suggestions as above.
3. Landscape/portrait issues.
Well. The main problem here is the android system. By definition it detects the longest size on the display and sets it as the height. Therefore you'll have a tough time fixing the standard display to landscape. As above, I suggest speaking with the devs that worked on these roms and implement the ChaCha kernel files into the Wildfire ROM.
Aaaaaand that's about it I guess. I wish you good luck!
Drunk, this early??
Good effort!

Nice!
For the backlight, maybe you could try using system/lib/hw/lights.msm7k.so from the stock Chacha rom, or even from SuperOSR...
You cannot copy/paste an apk+odex file, it will probably never work. Try deodexing it first, then copy it.
I guess this is the right place to ask

I copied lights.msm7k.so from SuperOSR, and the keyboard backlight works now.
I used an application on my laptop called xUltimate to deodex both this ROM and Chacha 1.54 stock, and the only things that wouldn't deodex are the Lockscreen and Rosie :/
Camera appears right-way round/up if a 3rd party camera app is used
Additional bugs I've noticed after trying it out a bit again:
--GPS doesn't work - I'll mess around with gps libs tomorrow when I have a bit more time
--The FM radio app's graphics are messed up
For gps try also to use stock chacha libsensors (or something like that)
the right names for the files are:
/system/lib/hw/gps.chacha.so
/system/lib/hw/sensors.chacha.so
try using the one from SuperOSR.
Is this ROM going to be official released anytime soon because I am working on a ROM from another HTC device aswell and was wondering if you needed any assistance on final touches?
TechMayhem
This would interest me greatly, as I really love the "standard" sense and was quite disappointed with the amount of white/light colours used in the ChaCha's version, and how it just doesn't seem to fit in very well at all with the HTC family. Would it be possible to use the Desire Z's rosie? As that supports landscape natively.

Tbh, I haven't done anything on this for a while because I started flashing CM7/SuperOSR.
From what I can remember, the following things wern't working:
-Lockscreen - Always in Portrait, won't rotate
-Rosie - Force-close loop, had to replace with an alternate launcher
-GPS - Icon doesn't appear in the status bar
-FM/Dailer/maybe others - Graphics messed up due to forced landscape resolution
That's all I managed to check before I got caught up in crackflashing XD
I am by no means a dev - all this was done by replacing files in a Wildfire S ROM with ones from SuperOSR/stock Chacha

Precisely why I tried this in the first place - I wasn't expecting all this white, which doesn't make the Chacha feel like an HTC as much to me - I already tried the Desire Z's Rosie - while it did work, all the icons were huge (because of it being scaled for HDPI screens). Dunno about widgets.
Once I find it amongst all the crap I have on my laptop, I could upload it if anyone might have an idea how to fix what's left and to see what else is broken?

[Q] Help needed with HTC Sensation

Hi guys
I was wondering if any one could enlighten me with a problem im having with my HTC sensation Z710e, android v4.0.3, HTC sence v3.6.
I'm new to android so have no idea whats, what.
Theres no wigets or apps shortcuts in the personalize section.
when i hold my finger on the home screen, i go to Personalize screen, then i tap Widget and the next windows blank same goes for the Add App Shortcut screen theres nothing there except the title and most buttons have no function except the home button.
Am i missing something here, why is there no icons in these screens.
i have tried installing nice widget packs ect but still no widgets show up.
can any one tell me what im doing wrong here!!!.
Thank you in advance for any help you can give here.
Sorry if this is not right place for question.
regards
Daz
Your're in the right section.
I'm not using Sense 3.6 so it's a bit hard for me to visualise the steps you've done.
You seem to be doing the right steps. Have you tried rebooting the phone?
hi my friend,
seems that you're expieriencing some troubles, welle i never had such issue but there are thing you have to do before flashing new roms.
when you flash a new rom, perform a superwipe before.then flash rom.
some mods can brake things in your rom so be carefull of what you flash.
and when you flash a mod or kernel ,i advice you to perform a wipe cache and dalvick before.
i run Elegancia rom sense 3.6, delicious rom, no issues, fast smooth and stable. and i always use eleganca themes mods and skins, this way i never had issue ,no broken things.

looks like some data got screwed up...
one thing you can try is ...go to settings->apps->all apps->ht sense->clear data
this might restore your widgets and all (but UI goes default)
or if this option is not at all available..then flash the same rom again..with just wiping cache + dalvik (this way you'll lose the mods..but rest of data stays intact)
Hi guys first off, thanks so much guys for replying and sorry took me a while to check in.
Hi k0zmic
I have shut down phone and restarted phone, unfortunately didn't help. Thanks anyway.
Hi Catpoule
I bought this phone as a manufactuers tested unit and it was upgraded by them to icecream as far as i know!
Not really happy about flashing the rom as I bricked my spv m5000 when i chose wrong rom version that i had previously download but didnt check. dum a** or what
i think its still under warranty so ill refrain from that at the moment, but thanks.
Hi ganeshp
I might give your idea of (clear data) a try, but when UI goes default what does that change exactly, does that just change whats on the Home screen and will it delete shortcuts created as well and what eles!.
Thanks for the advice guys really appreciated, many thanks.

[Q] Landscape mode for incall screen??

Hello,
I have been doing a lot of search to have my incall screen rotate.
I found the following post.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1705215
So, it seems that it is possible to do this mod, and I succeeded in extracting and decompiling phone.apk and I found "inCallScreen.smali"
However, my "inCallScreen.smali" is different from the one in this post, and I have no idea how to modify it.
Can someone give me some advice ?
I have tried different roms, but I am trying to do this mod on CM9 (9.1.0-pyramid) on HTC Sensation.
I would appreciate any indication. Thank you.
PS: It seems that some galaxy roms have this mod. Is there any rom which has this feature for HTC Sensation?
