[Q] OrDroid update question - HTC Sensation

Hello,
First of all I would like to thank kgs1992 for his tool and for his help on IRC when I got into bootloop also M3nti0n who fixed it in the end. Thank you both.
Anyway my question is this. I got OrDroid 8.7 and I want to update to OrDroid 9. Do I have to wipe data and everything? Or can I just install and it will keep all my contacts, apps, call and sms history?
Thanks in advance for the answer.

Just do cache +Dalvik wipe and then flash the rom (you won't lose a spec of data)

Got another question about OrDroid. How can I disable the drop down menu when the phone is still locked?

Not possible i think as it's a ICS feature

Question: which is better? OrDroid or PkMn?

hi there
i have installed both the roms and tested but i personally prefer ordroid
over pkmon
its a very good rom
eagerly waiting for update

I updated it successfully with everything intact. I got a question though. Linking phone contacts to Facebook doesn't seem to work well. I select the contact link to the facebook contact press save and nothing happens. Then I go into the edit contact and press save and then it links. Can this be done any other way?

I assume you've read/asked in the appropriate LeeDroid ROM thread.
I also assume you did the recommended pre-flash wiping/etc. for that ROM, and haven't restored any system data left over from your previous ROM by way of titanium backup or similar, correct?
You might get a better-focused subset of the XDA community there.
Thanks for the reply Scott. Yes I have done the recommended wipe and flash process, however Im not able to post in the leedroid dev thread yet as Im a new member. Just thought Id give it a try in here. Thanks anyway

I kind of figured that might have been the reason.
Just a friendly reminder that the answer you seek may already be available in that thread. It's a pretty popular ROM, and I'm sure someone has run into a similar issue already...

There shouldn't be, it was confirmed working. Try a full wipe (data, cache, dalvik cache, system, and sd-ext) and redownload and install the ROM again

Thanks for the replies but I have done all those things, maybe it's just my phone. Could twrp 2.3 be causing this, what recovery is used when creating this rom

Yes it could, use this recovery:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1663531
Also for MMS on aosp if your on WiFi some users have reported that turning off WiFi and downloading the MMS works.
From personal experience on the doubleshot this was the case for me on cm9 but others could download while on WiFi

[Q] Viper XL 3.2.1 update question

Sup XDA? Noob here...
Currently running 3.1 noticed the update is out as a full ROM and not OTA as of yet. A few questions:
- How long before it's available OTA?
- Can I install the ROM from recovery and have it essentially do the same as an OTA would? Would I keep all my files/apps using this method or will it wipe my info?
Thanks in advance for the help!

1. Turge has said that it is too big a file to be released as an ota. So it never will be an ota.
2. Yes. Just dirty flash it over your existing rom. In the installer it will ask do you want to wipe data or no. Select dont wipe data. All your setting and everything will remain. To be on the safe side backup any important files with TIBU or your favorite backup app first in case something goes wrong.

No need to wipe data if coming from Viper XL 3.0.0 or 3.1.0. The new release is a different base so there would not be an OTA. If you coming from previous version, wiping data is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Easy to install just do not choose wipe data during the install and you are good to go.
Precisely what I needed to know. Thanks so much.

Your post has nothing to do with the original topic of the thread. You should have started your own thread, or read the ViperXL thread. The lagfix discussed there may help your case.
Ough, I was in the idea I did that, guess I messed up.
I'll post in a new thread. You dont have this problem? With the phone app?

With the dialer, no. ViperXL was a bit laggy waking the screen when pressing the power button. But I didn't have the dialer lag you are talking about.
Download the Lagfix app from the Play Store and see if that helps. Also, if your SD card is pretty full, it will make most of the Sense JB ROMs laggy.
10-4, I'll work on that.
Thanks

Q&A for [Rom][CandyKat][OFFICIAL][s4][4.4.4][hboot 2.15/2.16]v1.6.1
Some developers prefer that questions remain separate from their main development thread to help keep things organized. Placing your question within this thread will increase its chances of being answered by a member of the community or by the developer. Thanks for understanding and for helping to keep XDA neat and tidy! :smile:
dancerobot said:
HI, installed 1.6.0 on hboot 2.16 and have been using it for a number of days. Occasionally (about every third time) the screen in my dialer goes black and won't wake up. This means I can't hang up the phone or use the dialpad without hard-rebooting. If the other person ends the call, it's fine but if I am leaving a message or something I need to reboot.
I think it might a proximity sensor issue.

I have a similar issue, even on stock, was the reason I rooted my phone in the first place. I use Rezound Proximity Sensor Calibration app from the play store and it solves the problem perfectly.
Just a noobie question...the new build has something called 'chameleon' in it. Where is it and what does it do?

is a new behaviour of status bar, changed the colour like the actual app.
It's nice but isn't deactivable... (and IMHO I don't like much...)

Candy center OTA not working
I'm on 1.6.1 and the candy center says I'm on current version. Would really prefer an OTA update to a complete wipe and rom install... Any solution for this?
Unable to install zip
Hi, im new to the forum and wondered if anyone can help. Im trying to flash my one s with the newest candykat and keep getting an install error "E: Error executing updater binary in zip 'internal_sd/candykat-ville-215-4.4.4.release...."
My device has s-off and im using twrp 2.7.0, hboot 2.15 and haven't usually had any probs like this before in the past (though it has been around 8 months since i last changed the ROM, time for something new...).
Ive tried the last two releases of CandyKat with the same error, can anyone shed any light on the problem??
Thanks in advance.

Manually upgraded to 1.6.2, now 1.6.3 is available and Candy Centre still says I have the latest version. Do OTA updates work for this or not? Does anyone even look at this Q&A thread?

Ota is being reworked atm
Hi, i want to ask if someone else have a problem with com.android.phone force close, sometimes i just have one in a while, but sometimes I have a lot. Yes i tried other roms but have similar problem, so I'm asking if there is a workaround. I'm using hboot 2.16, I came from liberty max sense 5.5 so I have the radio from that rom. Hboot 2.15 user have the problem too? Or if something to live with kitkat aosp?

Ok... This one has me baffled... Whenever I open chrome it opens in hover mode... Like in the middle of the screen where you can see the previous app or background behind it... Weird issue. I've tried clearing cache, uninstalling/reinstalling, disabling hover, but nothing helps. Any ideas?

I think it's a chrome problem., they seem to be trying to introduce a reading mode. I started using the chrome beta and it doesn't have this behaviour. The only way I can find to switch out of that reading mode is to use the task switcher, change to some other task and then change back to chrome.

You need to enable USB debugging in dev options I think, then select mass storage when you plug in the usb cable. Should work fine. As a last resort you could boot to recovery and mount the sd card from TWRP, pc should see it then no problem.
Why KandyKat vers, 1.4 or 1.5 not in HTC One S wiki ?
In HTC One S wiki there is a table of all the Official and well supported custom ROMs.
I noticed that KandyKat is not listed in the wiki summary table.
As a suggestion, can you talk to the webMaster to include KandyKat in the wiki table ?

If I was to upgrade my phone to candyKat 4.4.4 to gain new adnroid features (ex. Miracast, better USB/keyboard connectivity, ART application speeding up, etc . . .)
will the day-to-day popular 4.4.1 functions that I have been using for 3 years on my phone, will continue to work as normal and as stable ?
I have S4 Hboot 2.15 S-On, which download link shall I use to get the ROM flash files ?

Well since you are rooted and I assume have TWRP installed. You should be able to do a Nand Backup, Flash the ROM of your choice. If you don't like it or missing feature, restore your backup. Easy peesy.
