Desire HD or Z ROM

Wow! The camera is now working for the new sense.
The new official versions of those new sense roms will come out very soon (Robociks RCMixHD and Desire Z Port).
Now, I am confused :
To rotate or not to rotate?
Anyone can help me decide?

Personally I don't like the look of it in Landscape so I'll say HD
Not followed the camera progress for a while so if it's working I'll be rooting again soon

I was going to ask the same question!. I can live without 720p for the time being - seems a minor fix compared to actually getting the camera working in these ROM's.
I am currently running Teppics ROM and i do like it but i am very tempted to try another!
Can i just ask what is the rotating part you are talking about? - I have not kept up with the ports until the camera issue was resolved?

The HTC Sense can be viewed in a landscape mode in the Z ROM.

to be honest, the rotating kind of annoys me, so i'm a HD rom man.
the MT4G rom is also interesting and worth a look if you want to try something a bit different. really fast too.

Hmmm....it seems rotation is not to everyone liking..
720p is also a minor problem for me as long as I have the camera working because I need the camera for emergency use when I don't have my Panasonic FZ38 with me.
Is there a speed difference between Z and HD?

My Mistake, ignore this reply
*This*

Never use 720p as it's terrible on the Desire so it doesn't bother me - just a working camera will do the job!!
All flashed and working fine

aaa said:
If I am not mistaken, MT4G is a non-Sense ROM.
I have tried Cynogen about two weeks ago, I like the speed but I got the impression that I was not holding an HTC Desire on my hand because the Sense was missing and Sense is a kind of a birth mark on every normal HTC Desire.
That is why I use Leedroid instead

I'm trying to remember - it was a little while since I used it - but I think it was sense, or had the sense widgets anyway.

why is 720p a problem for you? HD Recoring is pathetic on the desire

I wanna have everything functioning but again as said, it is only a minor problem, something I can live with.
Yup, very bad...the recording quality is pathetic.

yes the espresso mytouch 4G is a sense based HD rom and I've been using it for about a month now, super reliable and super fast (quadrant nearly 2000)

Have you find any issues or bugs (the laggy 720p is already known)? Notification LED?
According to forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=818392 : "Rom is cleaned of bloatware."
Do you know :
What are/ is the bloatware/s? or what is missing or removed?
One of my fav mod now is the DSP manager and I am currently using Leedroid 2.2f, does the DSP thing works on that ROM?

the bloatware was all the t-mobile junk and game demos/apps etc
DSP manager isn't working on this rom at the moment
(but the dev is very helpful and will probably try to fix it if you ask him nicely )
In my opinion the rom kernel isn't the best, I've tried quite a few over the weeks and coutts99 kernel remix is the best so far (now with audiomod to boost the sound)
there is a promised new release version later on tonight so if you're thinking of flashing this rom hang on for a few hours...!

I will definitely wait.
I want the new sense badly
It doesn't have to be the same DSP manager as I use at the moment as long as I can adjust the audio quality as I please.
I have tried the HD Rom 3 weeks ago, but switched back to Leedroid because of the camera was not working.
Now the camera is working, I can live with the 720p problem.Although, I am still hoping that the 720p problem will also be fixed soon.

low headset volume

ive noticed we have incredibly low headset volume? is there any mods i can use to gain a boost. right now im useing the volume boost app. but i would prefer a more permanent fix

Dsp manager. Look in xboarders thread, dl the flashable zip, flash from recovery or rom manager(if you must)

I have the same issue. Mostly want to boost the ringer volume.
I found few topics for DSP manager when using the search.
I'm not sure which one exactly works for Desire Z and sense roms.
A lot of people though complaining to stick on splash screen after installing and rebooting.
Anyway... is this going to work on Desire Z or not /sense rom ok/?

because in the comments here it is written that is not:

Thank you in advance too.

If you use Xboarder's sense ROM, DSPManager will work.
If you are on a stock sense ROM, it will not work.
So use a custom sense ROM because it feels the same but works even better.

What headphones are you using? I believe the output jack only outputs up to 32 ohms. If you use higher impedance rating headphones, that would explain the lower volume. I have tried to email HTC specifically about the output rating of the Desire Z, but over the course of 3 weeks, they actually told me that their engineers refused to divulge the info! For whatever reason...

What volume boost app are you using? Volume+ works decently. The difference is not huge, but it helps significantly. Only works on Gingerbread ROMs. What ROM are you on?
Volume+ is paid app on the Market, but free at the devs website:
http://androidaudiohacks.com/home/volume-gingerbread

redshoes you might be out of luck if you're not noticing any improvement.
The unity v4 kernel is supposed to sport a 20% audio boost itself and then paired with Volume+, I think that'd be about the best you could do. It's odd that Volume+ is not working for you. Perhaps you should bring that up with the developer.

Dsp manager works on unity, coredroid, synergy sense roms. As well as every GB rom I've tried. Never had anything negative from flashing it. There is only 1 dsp manager btw..

That's not a sense rom btw

I've been using rmk 2.42 sense with the unitiy v4 kernel which is said to give a 20% increase. Volume is low( to my taste ) with the stock headsets that came with the phone or even skullcandys. I use volume boost which basicaly does the same thing. I tried the dsp install in the post above but I bootloops a couple times. It seems we have a limit set cause maybe of the 2.3.3 leak that has never been truly removed. The only solution I've seen is running a asop rom

Thank you, dkmurphys
I use Virtuous Doubleshot 1.1.0 RC1 with Unity V4 kernel – (I put it in my signature, but don't see it) ... and I thought of writting to the developer to ask him if I should or should not see any difference with the app installed
A little bit scared to try DSPManager. I read today more than an hour for it, there are a lot of threads for it.

[Q] Bluetooth handsfree profile not working on ICS or above

I'm trying to give my old Desire (GSM) to my mother as her first smartphone, but I ran into some trouble with her Bluetooth car-kit.
When I scan for Bluetooth devices on any other phone, I see that the Desire is not reported as a phone (while other phones are).
This only happens on ROMs for Android 4 or above (although I didn't test 3).
What I tried:
Stock (2.3) worked
CM7 (2.3) worked
AOKP (4.0) did not work
ICS for Desire (from sandvold) (4.0) did not work
COS Bravo ICS (4.0) did not work
This led me to believe that this was an issue with Android 4.0, so now I'm looking for any pointers that can help me fix this.
I could not find any similar problems, but I guess the Desire is kind of old now and Bluetooth is less used than it was.
Does anyone here have any ideas?
Greatly appreciated, thanks for your attention.

Am I the only one with Bluetooth peril?

Ok, thanks for your input. I might try to add the profile to the bluetooth stack myself.

Well, what do you know! I decided to try a few more and it looks like CronMod is working!

[Q] why has no developer ported tytung's kernel to htc desire?

if you look at the htc hd2 forums, you will see everyone is using tytung kernel for their 4.0 to 4.2 roms as it has fully working 720p video playback, camera and camcorder... why hasn't any htc desire developer ported his work? i would think it would be easier/more flexible than trying to port kernel 3.0 which seems to never be able to work completely because of lack of drivers.

Maybe because making a working kernel 3 is more important than porting other kernels.

i think we will never get a complete kernel 3 tbh as there's a lot of drivers not available..
It looks much easier/feasible to port Tytung work on camera/camcorder as the 2.x kernel of HD2 is very similar to htc desire's 2.x kernel..that would require less effort than trying to port kernel 3 (maybe i am wrong..) Qiss Rom and Tytung have been able to get a fully working camera/camcorder using kernel 2.x; so it is possible
at least i have been able to enjoy ICS with qiss rom and marius.a's rom (not a single issue to the major components : camera/camcorder is perfect, BT, GPS, Fm radio and all apps and games work great) ... i would have liked enjoying Jelly bean on my desire before changing phone next year

i mean apart from qiss rom team(unfortunately they did not released their source), no one has been able to get a stable camera/camcorder on kernel 2.x ... what makes you think with kernel 3.x it will be better and easier? and unfortunately there are very very few developers on the htc desire nowadays.. look at the android dev forum, it is quite quiet nowadays

It wouldn't work, because nikez uses ion now in his rom instead of pmem! With pmem and tytung's camera fix, which tytung already dicussed with nikez in nikez's thread, it would work, but nikez dont want to revert back to pmem

thank you bro, i dont like sense, i will try wildchild 3.3 but waitin for your update to fix mobile network for epic rom miui based on cm7.2. it was the best for me but i dont use for only one reason that is network problem. i will try wildcihld but still will be waiting for your miui v3 with network fix

i have tried wildchild 3.3 its well but i had keyboard problem. when i touch any writeable screen, not opening keyboard, tried to flash stock keyboard same problem existed again. i'm turnin back to stock again..

This one looks promising: Marvellous CM10
However I don't know if it is overclock-able. I'm always weary of overclocking phones as they don't have that much heat dissipation to work with.
