i thought it was part of android not htc?
so thats probably the issue then, that its cuz i dont have a rom with sense on it? does it matter what version of sense?

Not that I know, I just flash any sense ROM and do what I got to do and nand back to my normal. My recommendation for a sense ROM to try it's digital karma;s 777

This will work with ANY rom, sense or nonsense
open up your command prompt, go to where your adb is and type this:
c:\yourdirectory\adb shell
$ su
# echo 1 > sys/devices/virtual/usb_composite/diag/enable
(the $ is if you're not at root, if you see a # then you're at root and don't need to type su)
you're now in diag mode
if you want to turn it off do the same but type echo 0 > sys/devices/virtual/usb_composite/diag/enable at the adb shell commandline

i got it fixed, thanks!
just downgraded to a GB rom and it worked

It worked, but that vanilla version is with transparent background, it doesn't look good, and the fix for a black background change the battery icon for the headphone one so, i think it needs to be optimized to work in our phones
Hate to bring up old stuff but has anyone found a fix for this as of yet. I have tried Caulkins fix... Fresh's fix and a few others but none seem to work I am running Fresh 3.2... Any help would be appreciated

[Q] Sense 3.0 Lockscreen without root

t if you don´t have root permissions you can´t 3.0 lockscreen from the recoverymenu...okay...
but, can be i´m mistaken.. i don´t remember all the parameters that you must to enter in the CMD or linux shell (like me) for push it from sdk of android...now i´m mixing concepts in my head (and i can´t see it because i´m writting from my device)but i hope that you need also superuser permissions for it...(root)
EDIT:you can root, install recovery, flash it and revert root access lol

Sorry im a lil bit new to this, (i've rooted my phone before, was running Cyanogenmod 7.0.2, but still.. a lil bit noob) hehe
But what happends when i "root, install recovery, flash it and revert root access" ?
First you will have to root to obtain root access. That is so you can install Clockworkmod which requires root access to install as it modifies the stock bootloader. You will need to install Clockworkmod and then with clockworkmod you will have to flash the required files to get the Sense 3.0 lockscreen. After you have done that and made sure it works you can get a tool from XDA that lets you put all the settings back to stock. But when you do that the Sense 3.0 lockscreen will stay.
I hope you understand what I mean
Yeah im starting to understand, but how and what am i suppose to flash?

You cann flash that you want....a new rom, a kernel,a theme... And the suposed sense 3.0 that you want for your device..
If you are not fully understand browse for this concepts and read a lot before flashing anything....
EDIT:read about the function of rom manager; of clockworkmod recovery... How to root.... Etc..
sent from my amstrad CPC powered by LOL..(premium xda)
Im not sure if the 3.0 lockscreen will work on the stock ROM but its worth having a go. For that you will need 3 or 4 files depending on what you encounter.
If you go to the Android development section there is a thread called Kingdom Lockscreen which is the Sense 3.0 lockscreen. You will need to flash the Sense 3.0 weather funtionality and the Sense 3.0 messaging functionality before the lockscreen.
Before you do anything (but once you have rooted and installed clockworkmod) I recommend that you do a Nandroid backup - A Nandroid backup is a backup that is made from within the Clockworkmod recovery environment that you can access either through ROM manager or by holding down the volume button while the device is turned off and then whilst keeping it held pressing the power button. A Nandroid backup backs up your ROM while its in its working state, all your applications will be backed up. Therefore if anything goes wrong you can just boot into recovery and re-flash the backup. A backup is quite large in size though. My last one was about 700MB so make sure you have enough space on the SD card.
So once you have backed up everything you will need to install the Sense 3.0 weather and restart the phone just to test everything is working. That is because if you install everything at once and it doesnt work its next to impossible to find out what caused the fault. Once you have done that you will need to go back into Clockworkmod and flash the messaging. Again restart and once you see that the messaging works you will need to go back into Clockworkmod to flash the lockscreen.
And that is it. If you encounter any problems while the lockscreen is installed (I had a problem where when I pressed power off the phone restarted instead), you will need to apply the fix which is on page 61 of that thread. That should fix everything.
After that you would just need to unroot. There are some tools for that lurking about the forum somewhere.
EDIT: I would strongly recommend installing a custom ROM as they are just so much better than the rubbish HTC give out. Much faster, more secure and there is much better support in place for them as most people wouldnt expect. If you have a problem with a custom ROM and you post it here, you will get an answer within 15 minutes guaranteed instead of having to wait for HTC for 15 days to answer your email and then find out they didnt answer the question but just said "sorry tough luck".

Hmm weird, if its going past M, you should be able to get a logcat. Its kind of the only way I can tell whats wrong.
ok so i tried it and it did not work. im think that the problem is some where in the installation cause nothing else makes sense
ok im pretty sure that the problem is some where in the installing cause im think its not probably installing right thats why it goes M and then nothing and ADB commands dont work

Yah i can go on gmail but after today i dont know when I will be free to help you work on rom again cause im pretty busy the rest of the week

Custom ROM that allows access to EPST

I read somewhere that said only the sense roms can allow access to the EPST menu, but each one I have tried has failed so far. Anyone know if there is a ROM out there that lets me dial ##778 to get to the menu?
Try a stock sense 1 ROM like stock plus or mcsense or gingerstock.
Were you trying sense 3.5 roms? Afaik they don't support epst properly.

That should be it. Try adding a pound to the end (##778#). I know some roms also use ##data#, *#*#program#*#*, or *#*#data#*#*

Same here. I've tried every Sense ROM with no success, even the Touch of Blue, which us a beautiful ROM BTW. When I dial #778 and hit send, it acts like its trying to open the menu, but nothing comes up. Also, nothing responds on the screen until I hit the back button.

Very weird, i am running my rom TOB and can access it with no issues. I have always been able to access it except on a few ported roms. Im not sure what would be the difference. Same rom same phone, the only difference is whats on our emmc and sdcard, and that shouldt make a bit of difference. Mabey htc changed something in the phones along the way, causing some people to have different results than others. Only other thing i could think of is screen type, i have amoled, but that shouldnt make a difference either.
Also i noticed you said #778 it should be ##778# hit dial, may have just been a typo on your part.
Do you think maybe its because I'm using a different SD card?

Shouldnt matter, as far as i know epst does not use the sdcard.

Maybe I'll get it figured out. Its weird because when I was on stock GB before I rooted I could access EPST, but since rooting I can't access it unless I restore my original rom.

I still cannot figure out why EPST isn't working with any rom I flash. I actually started using the Nils Business Sense 3.5 and when I dial ##778#, it says initializing, but never opens EPST. That's more then the Sense 1.0 roms have done for me.
no epst
Same here . was stock 2.3.4 and did root s-off did nandroid of stock and flashed sense + .. now no epst on anything .. restored recovery and its doing the same thing ##778# and just locks the screen up . I have to hit the back key to unfreeze it . ##diag# does work however .. ( i wish some one could figure this out i need epst . My MiP profile keeps changing from 1 to 0 on every boot and i lose 3g 1x . Could it be something different on the phones that see a working epst like the radio or s on or hboot ver ? mine is 0.92 s-off with the newest ota radio
Synergy ROM's EPST works perfect. Use ##778#.
Thanks..found my dream rom. has Everything cm does plus its 100% sense. love it and. now it on Vmobile. epst works ..skyraider 4.0 ++ . rom is not availible here though.thru the developers site only.

I couldn't get the script to execute on SOS fo some reason....this, however, did the trick for me:
In root explorer look to see if the script file (metropcs.sh)is in the right place in the internal memory...if not place it there then execute.
Can u guide me to that file from root? Sorry, i have no idea where to go. And how do I execute it? Do i just long press and select "execute" ? I had this same issue with SOS and I don't think I ever got it working on a sense 1.∅ rom

Sadly, I cannot. Which is why I asked bloodyk. where it was in his rom thread....thinking it disappeared. I cannot locate it in my root or sd.
I know I pulled it from the zip and placed it in root and then executed it within.
To execute, d/l script manager freê from store. Open script manager, locate sh file, ensure su is selected in top row, and touch run (also top row). That should do it.
Thanks Mex. Saw your post just now on bk's thread. If you find anything please let me know. I'm running aosp cuz I really need mms for work. Would love to try the new sos
