[Q] InsertCoin 1.6.1 - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

For me, this rom has the best sense performance - almost 100% smoothness... But can anyone explain me why when charging my phone it gets better? I mean it's completely chopless...
Is there a way to keep this beauiful smoothness without a charger??? maybe some kernel?

I'm gonna guess it's the OC, it's probably set to be higher while charging, most are

That sounds logically. So maybe flashing a kernel from sense 3.5 roms would speed up my cpu some more? I can do it right?

Smooth htc sense? There is no way i guess... I should have bought a wp7 phone...

I've come across this thought too before xD.
Anyway, if it's smoother while charging, then that's not necessarily a bad thing. Your charges take a normal amount of time still right?

Well, one rotation is fixed, I HIGHLY suggest flashing taz's 4.0 port, smoother than sense 2.0 on our phone!!!!

Actually i dont know. Most of charging time my dz stays unused. I took it for a second and noticed better performance.

I think 1.6.1 has the virtuous OC daemon, no? Regardless, I'd recommend getting ILWT Tools from the market and using that to install his daemon and change the settings from there (don't forget to press menu > save & apply).
This has worked flawlessly on every rom I've tried, GB or ICS.

Thanks =JKT=,
InsertCoin 1.6.1 + ILWT Tools = sense 2.1 smoother than ever

[Q] Which rom currently have sense?

im looking for a rom that is the closest to the stock desire Z rom on a unbranded desire Z.. im in the process of getting a tmobile G2.. and i dont like the stock fw..
by far the best i have come across is Virtuous ROM as it is sense, but faster and tweaks to be better, and with the advanced kernel you can overclock to 1.5 ghz! the only downside is its froyo 2.2

Why is that a downside? What is so much better about Gingerbread than Froyo? I've tried out just about all the GB based ROMs out for the G2, and I don't believe it's better than Froyo. Just a different look that doesn't seem to add speed/responsiveness to the phone.
Virtuous is a great Sense based ROM. Period.
gingerbread seems to be quite a bit faster for me, dunno it might just be me, and I really like the changes to the ui
Sent from my HTC Desire Z using XDA App
you could try gingersense as well, i liked it but ditched it for ultimate droid now.
Well if you want the closest to stock then definitely go Virtuous like the above poster stated. But if you want something a bit faster with a significantly longer battery life you have to try TrollogenMod 0.9.1. Its Gingerbread Sense with the Sense 3.0 lockscreen which is pretty fun.

is trollogen perfectly usable? ive been on CM7 for a while holding out for virtuous gingerbread, and now thinking of going to virtuous fusion ROM which is sense 3.0 port. is trollogen good and are there any problems? thanks
EDIT:another downside to virtuous rom is the crappy htc messaging app, so i got chompSMS but then alot of my texts were sent twice
trollogen rom is good to me, run smooth sense 2.1.

The new virtuos fusion is amazing. 3.0 is pretty much the creme de le creme. Hts dev team does a good job and rmk is a god amongst swarms of devs. I have ran pretty much all the sense roms and even though there are a few minor glitches in 3.0 I will be using it as a daily rom.

What's the great advantage to it on a Desire?
litle bit faster
Better taskbar

But right - radios and the display is drinking most of the juice
For me its more about a sense update than gingerbread. Only if we don't get sense 2.1 with the official rom, it'll be about having official gingerbread so we can get some custom roms based on that with sense 2.1 or 3.0.
Gtfo with sense porting. I don't care what sense it is, I use LPP anyway. Bring me whatever it is as long as it is built for Desire.

Well it affected many functions of the phone I doubt it
Using this on my Desire S. Much much much faster than 3.5.
This ROM is perfect because it has the same specs as our phone.
Why do you want a One X port? We will need to resize images etc, and will be slower as its designed for a quad-core phone, we are only on a single core, with less RAM.
Sent from my HTC Desire S using xda premium
you are right. Its damn fast. But however, the ROM is just as fast, because a lot is missing (Widgets, Lockscreen etc.). It is not so comfortable as the real Sense 3.5 or 4.0. The sense here is 4.0 light, which is similar to Sense 2.1
The One X, based on real Sense 4.0 Engine

Already been using it... I was using it since October, when the first Sense 3.0 ROMs were available
Sense is laggy when opening notifications, app drawer etc. Not like 4.0
Sent from my Desire S using xda premium
Not sire what you guys mean with laggy... Im come from desire.. and for sure...i know what lags are.. on desire also aosp roms have lags.. and now i have a phone with soo much speed.. no lockscreen lags.. even if a call comes.. i can push the symbol really smooth into the ring.. no slide lags during slide between homescreens.. i always use much htc widgets... After i play some 3d gameloft game.. no lag... I dont need data2ext scripts.. as there is engouh internal mem.. even in gameing no lag.. eg : asphalt, nfs, and other...mmmhh.. but im on stock rom @the moment 1. 05
Anyway.. also would like to see a sense 4 rom... Will look if i get some time free.. hope some other want work on that too.. maybe we can use the xe version.. and combine with kernel and hw drivers from sense 3. 6 (which allready work on our phones)...was a idea...
Also we can do some kernel optimations.. @the moment only for gb... So it would be nice again if we get official ics and also get the kernel as source...
Sent from my HTC Sensation XL with Beats Audio X315e using XDA
Well ics kernel source for xl should be out soon as official ics dropping soon. These so called lags for me are non existent and maybe some are expecting too much. Rosie was and will always be a memory hog and any widget can cause maybe a slight delay in transition. No roise is ever smooth no matter what is done to it.

with kind regards
just downloaded...hope we get the official update soon...if so...one of all devs here should make a development thread...so we can speak together instead of each individually...so we can make ics sense 4 to work...there are also roms for desire hd out...but with things not working...we are in a better situation...we get a ics update...so we have original drivers...etc...so we should have a better start....
good to have custom recoverys...so we can do a nand backup...go back every time back to daily driver in testing

Why no fully functional ICS and Sense 4 when there is one for HTC Desire C

HI Guyz,
I am not a dev. So please pardon me if i am wrong. When i visited a mobile shop to get a new mobile for my cousin,
1. I saw HTC Explorer , which in configuration is wayyyyyyy below desire. But i was awestruck with the smoothness of it. The appdrawer, swiping between homescreens, widgets etc. but i cannot have the same smoothness even with the official sense 1.9 ? Why is that ?
2. I saw HTC Desire C which is based on 600 MHz Cortex-A5. WTF. ? It has ICS. I can sense that ICS will be very laggy in the handset but my question is how this weak chipset has fully functional ICS and Sense 4.0 ? I still feel HTC Desire is very powerful and capable enough to run ICS. !!
Thanks,
Karthik
I'm running nikez ICS and it is very smooth - does not have sense though.

You could try to download desire c rom, change all "desire c" string to "desire" and see if it works...
lol, it's not so simple to port a rom, it's a different architecture of chip, different screen resolution, different drivers... etc etc...
Like if you run a game on a quadcore with full resolution and the same on a pentium4 with 640x480.. do you understand a little?
I think that the progress in ICS and JB is fantastitc, so appreciate the dev's work and don't pretend too much.

Thanks for your reply and please dont be obnoxious when you reply to someone. Its not that I doubt the devs. What i am trying to say is when a 600 mhz powered device can run ICS, why not ours (out of the box. just with minor tweaks) like transition from Froyo to GB. ?? I was totally upset to see ICS in Desire C rather than mine. I hope we will have fully functional ics/jb not without our excellent devs. !!

Ok, the fact is also that desire c has htc's drivers, our desire hwa was written from scratch by evervolv team, so it isn't an official released properly functioning.
It's correlated with the problem that cyanogenmod don't support it for cm9.
There are a few different ICS roms that work really well and smoothly for the Desire. BCM is based on CM9 but nikez rom and sandvolds rom are not. The only problem I have encountered is video playback issues which can be solved my using mx or rockplayer. Otherwise imo the desire ICS roms are quicker than GB. The devs have done a great job porting these to desire.

Wait... I believe that who tried mildwild 4.3 can say that is quicker, faster (maybe not smoother) rom for desire. With the option of choosing where to put apk and data of each app (if in internal or ext) I can open frequently used app in a second, camera Miui app is perfect and it has no bugs. The only benefits that I saw in ICS was running heavy games with good frame rate (the same game is laggy in GB) and using 4.0+ apps. But so far I found ics and jb rom slower (repeat I mean opening apps and overall quickness). Btw the job by evervolv team and nikez is fantastic and I guess that JB development will go furrher and better than ics

Since Shaky stop developing his Sense 4.0 ROM, this side of the HTC desire development has stopped. The ROM, though in alpha, was working brilliantly well. Everything was smooth, and there were many thing working. Why did shaky stop? That build has so much potential. I really hope that he is still developing his rom in secret, so that he makes a "surprise stable full version" release.

I didn't even notice that Shaky deleted his XDA account. I'm a bit worried about him. What happened?
So, if shaky stopped developing, does that mean that the Desire will never get a full version of the 4.0 Sense, even if it can run it very smoothly?
Begging the devs won't help...
I want this port so much that I'm willing to take Linux classes and to port it myself.
Sooo, is any developer kind and willing enough to continue shaky's work? I know this sounds like begging, but many Desire users really want the 4.0 Sense.
To prevent noobish spamming, like shaky had, devs could just release a full version when it's done.
Please XDA Devs, make our dreams come true.

Getting this phone soon

Hey guys ! I belong to HTC explorer , Samsung galaxy s and desire hd forums and I'm planing to get this phone , so I want to know a few things bout it :
How's the stock rom ? I mean on my explorer its laggy and almost unbearable
How's the battery life with continues use of WiFi and a lot of texting and music , that's the only reson I buy a phone though
I didn't had much Time to check that dose HTC one v have sense 4.1 or sense 4 FULL ?
Dose it have 8-10 different types of lockscreens ? (Weather , friend stream , stock etc )
How's the over all smoothness ? Is it worth the money ?
Thanks ,

Is it with the money? That depends. My carrier has dropped the price continually down to $100CDN and then stopped carrying it.
It's a much better phone if you install a custom rom on it. There are other phones that are newer and will likely have a front camera for similar price.
But, saying that, I like mine (custom ROM) just fine
I just got htc one v and it's fine for me. But battery last just for one day in my case - wifi on and a lot of texting. But I like it - it's fine for me and I thkink worth it's money.

The Lockscreen is not customizable. It's not full sense. To get what you want, you would have to root it and install ckpv5's mysense 3.5 rom., which is good.
I mentioned the price because you didn't. If it's more than $100, I would say get another phone. HTC will never upgrade it. They have already said so.

I was expecting the ui to be smooth and fast but Nevermind I really like it's camera and metallic body and I hope stock Rom wouldn't be that bad cause on my explorer with 600 MHz CPU it runs sense 4 pretty good (lags for a while, but a reboot fixes that) and on my desire hd it have 1 GHz CPU and it runs sense for just like stock , full sense 4 . So if DHD can run full sense sooth as hell with 1 GHz CPU , I see no reson for HOV to lag on lite version of sense with the same CPU

You can get different lock screens. All kinds of them for this phone. There are also Full Sense 4/4.1 Roms. Not JB Sense yet though if thats what you meant. Its actually an ok phone. I mainly use mine for gps,music, camera and social. On a good sense ROM battery will be great. On AOSP it will vary and usually not be so good. Good AOSP Roms are best for gaming. The metal case really helps, and its buttoned up pretty good. Put mine through some abuse. Its holding up nice. The stock ROM on mine actually wasn't too bad. Just with stock ROM and a good kernel its usable. But the best results are from a custom rom. Lots of good ones. Still development going on.
All that being said I would actually recommend a One S for what your looking for.
The camera one the One V isn't great. Night shots suck, and at 5mp its pretty low. One S has a great camera and 1080p video.
Battery is pretty small (One S isn't much bigger though)
And the One S is more powerful and smoother.
I've had my One V for about 4 months. Always wished I got a better One S.
One V is a good beginner phone.

Yeah so if you want it, it's a nice small, solid feeling phone, one v is good for that. But, if I were you, I'd root it and put either bandit's beaver ROM on it off one of ckpv5's
Hey thanks to all , I guess I'll be in this forum soon enough about in a 2-3 week's , one s is generally out of my budget :/
