Searching for a rom... - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

The problem with my desire is that the volume rocker is broken. Runnymede and runny rom have the feature that when you press plus or minus you can tap and hold the volume to change it directly onscreen.
So here's the question: does anybody know a sense 2.0 / 2.1 Rom (without kingdom lockscreen) wich has this feature?
Please help :l

No help?

It's a Sense 3.5 feature which can't, or at least hasn't been ported to other roms.
But you could try to use volume control from the market. It can create a shortcut to the notification bar. So you could quickly change volume.

Oh, okay
Is it just a shortcut or a real volume bar? Have been searching for something like this for some time but only found shortcuts...
Thanks anyway for the help
Just tried volume control from rubberbigpepper and it's awesome. I don't know why I never saw that :O

It's only a shortcut.
I know that some sense 2.1+3.0 have a volume bar in the quick settings tab of the notification bar. So maybe there is also a 2.0/2.1 rom with it, but I'm not sure.

Try SensEvolution. Very good, stable ROM, with volume in Quick Settings.

Used sensevolution for a day but AnDroid seems to be the better way for me.
What I noticed is that the proximity sensor bugs around in every sense2 rom I try -.-
When I call someone and get the phone off my head the screen won't turn on until the other person hangs up, and that's really annoying.. .

[Q] Rom that can use led with button

hi fellows ,
I was wondering if there is such rom or such possiblity to use Htc Desire flashlight via button such as trackpad button when screen is locked ???

Whats wrong with assigning it on one of the lockscreen app on Sense v3 or v3.5? Isn't that not handy enough?

I think the MIUI ROMs can do this?

Holding the home button on the desire hd while on lock screen works in cm7 and ICS. Maybe worth trying the desire version of cyanogen.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Yes it can be assigned in Cyanogenmod's option. But can you do it without unlocking the phone?
Only workaround is to assign the app to the lockscreen. And both Sense v3+ and Cyanogenmod can do this.

[Q] Is there an AOSP ROM that doesn't remap the app switcher button to menu?

Is there? Pretty much every AOSP ROM has it as menu, and that pisses me off.
I'd much rather hold the switcher button for menu.
Help please
why does every single question i ask on this forum never gets answered? please help
ViperX has that option as a tweak, more of a sense Rom with the option to choose apex or nova launcher for aosp look and feel
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
Not just ViperX, every Sense ROM, including stock has that.
I want this for AOSP based ROMs, though, and I can't find a single one with this.
For now, all AOSP Roms use the appswitcher button as Menu, and long-press home as appswitcher. I think most people like it that way and that's why everybody have chosen to have it like that in their Roms.
I know you can change the button by yourself, but it will need a little hacking.
If you read in Tripnravers CM9 thread a couple of days back, someone explained how to do it..
I would like to know this aswell. Could anyone post how to do this?

Did you find anything? I really would like to know also, i want a slim rom (like asop) with the app switcher button intact. I would also like to know if it would be possible to use the recent apps in sense style. Thnx in advance!

It's intact, just hold it for like 2 seconds, can't be that much of an effort right? (imo)
The Domination cm9 rom has adjustable buttons in settings. So only aosp based rom that works for me. I'm a bit surprised that people need the menu button so much.

That is the legacy way though.
Google stated that the app switcher should be separate, and I want it to be like that.
Its not so much need. Its the way it has always been in android to long press home for recent apps. So that building from source you would have to modify it to have the sense style app switcher layout
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
But it's not like that anymore! The app switcher should be a dedicated button!
And it is NOT Sense style. It is ANDROID. Google says that it has to be like HTC did it.
Besides, is it too much to want to have the buttons do what they say?
I switched to Jelly Bean now, and I just don't know what to do.
...you know that you could simply open the the keylayout file which is located in /system/usr/keylayout with a simple texteditor
and remap the button yourself back to appswitcher?
In tgascoigne's thread he suggested just undoing via the file. It wouldn't make sense to feature the option on an AOSP build, but can see it making it into CM builds.

@SilverHedgehog:
Did you find anything yet? Im using the renovate rom with novalauncher. The app switcher button is still intact there, with a few sense options too. The rom.is around 300 mb. I asked the question in the rom thread but did not get a reply.
People, Android is OPEN SOURCE, so please stop wining about rather it would be better the way its being used by most ppl, thats not the android way people.
I am using adroid with the reason that u can customize ANYTHING.

there's the domination ROM, but that's all to my knowledge.
can't find anything else, sadly.
uhhhh.....way hot here eh?
Ok, let's try to re-start, thread has been cleaned, from now let's try to have a clean discussion, ok?
Did you try the RENOVATE rom? Im using that one on a daily base. I will try the domination rom.
Didn't try Renovate.
I'm on Jelly Bean right now, for which, sadly, I couldn't find a solution...

[Q] Trackball wake on marius.a's ICS ROM

Hey y'all
I'm using marius.a's ICS ROM (found here) but would like to activate the trackball to wake up the phone.
I've tried ButtonRemapper (no option for trackball) and WidgetLocker (trackball wake option) doesn't work
Can anyone extract the trackball wake for me or point me in the right direction???
Yes, me too. Really like marius.a's ROM. If it could be wake on by track ball, it will be better.

Gesture Unlock

Hi,
Just wanted to know if there are any gesture unlocking mods a available for the One X similar to the blackberry 10
Sent from my Awesome HTC One X using XDA Premium
I am not familiar with the blackberry feature but I had a quick play to see if I could do this with tasker and secure settings but could not get it to work straight off. Does not mean its not possible, have a play if you have more time. Would be useful if it didn't kill battery.

I tried searching online but to no avail. I understand that such a mod would require kernel integration. But has anyone had any luck in doing that? Perhaps swiping through the 3 soft buttons below the screen?
Sent from my Awesome HTC One X using XDA Premium
Swipe to unlock (run through capacitive button to unlock) is quite commom.
