[Q] Viper DHD ROM questions (2.3.0) - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
since I can't ask in the ROM-Thread (fewer than 10 posts), I'll open this one.
1. Is there a way to disable vibrating when using the four soft buttons?
2. Can I change the "whole-screen-recent-apps-list" to the AOSP one? In the AOSP list I can select other apps to close without scrolling (it just has to be on the screen).
3. I'm using Tasker to enable airplane mode when connecting to a power cord and disabling airplane mode when the cord is plugged out. This worked 100% on stock 2.3. But with the Viper ROM it just works about every third time. Does anyone have a clue how this comes?
Thanks in advance!
PS: This is a great ROM and the first one which really replaced stock 2.3 for me Thanks to the developer team!

The 10 post limit has a reason!
So questions like this (already documented and asked) will not happen...

Ah, thanks. I was searching everywhere else... I wasn't in that settings since 2-3 years when I got the phone
@HanZie82: Thanks for this hint. I'm sure you can answer no. 2 and 3 then?

I'm sorry i do not work for you. :angel:
But i think this is best asked in the ROM thread. As i saw you were using ViperDHD rom go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1960734&highlight=viper
As your problems are not general DHD problems but might be ROM problems.
And btw "searching everywhere else" for some just means asking a friend. But it can also be someone has devoted 72 hours of googling and sifting trough XDA, we just dont know.
But i do hope you can get some answers, I would've searched for you but at the moment im working on something myself. (Figuring out howto chage the status bar to my liking. )
Goodluck. :good:
Edit: oh and for Tasker you could find out if there is a forum or anything about that, and search there.
Edit2: Found something: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/tasker

[Request] Trackpad to wake and unlock for Sense

Yeah, the title says it all. Does anyone have a zip file that wakes and unlocks the phone by pressing the trackpad twice?
Have looked around but there are no mods for Sense.
Thanks
Edit: Now as the source code has been released, is there a new hope?
next time use search..!!?!

I think the problem with this one is that it's kernel specific?
I know it's quite simple to just flash a .zip in order to just wake using the buttons, but wake AND unlock seems to be more difficult...

sorry i don´t try it yet..i only read the headline and download it...to test it if i have time

Well, don't try it unless you have the kernel listed there. Just make sure u do a nandroid backup.

There are only versions for MCR 3.1 there.
Somewhere the same for FroYo?
I think the source needs to be released by HTC first so we can integrate the mod into newer kernels. The same applies to overclocking Sense roms. We need the source.
No idea when it will arrive either
Ok, thanks
Sorry, perhaps I misunderstand the question. By using trackpad you mean that optical sensor? I don't understand what is in these linked packages, and why there is a broadcom Wifi module and god knows what included....
To activate the button in the middle, you just need to add /system/usr/keylayout/curcial-oj.kl. Grab it from some ready made ROM.
Why would anyone want wake from optical joypad???
That's annoying! What's wrong with lockscreens. (also, the phone will activate in the pocket!)

No, it won't activate in the pocket. I've been using trackpad wake for about 3 months and I've never woken up the phone unintentionally. The power button, on the other hand, is quite easy to press by accident...

Yes, that's true. The power button is quite exposed.
Sorry to both of you. I meant "Unlock" from trackpad is annoying.
I have nothing against wake.
i dont know if it helps but the CyanogenMod does support this feature.
i got it installed with the opendesire rom
bump, now as the source code has been released, is it possible?
It's May, 2011 now!! is it possible T_T
i want that for LeeDrOiD 3.0.5!!
TrackPad to wake is essential !!(trackpad to wake AND unlock is also welcomed )

[Q] How can I make the Bluetooth discoverable all the time?

Hi,
Yeah I'm aware its "danageraus" to put the BT discoverable and on all the time, but still,
Is there a way to make it on discoverable with no time limit (120 seconds)?
Thank you.
Yarden.
MMM you tried with bluetooth on/off widget by Curve Fish?
also the HTC stock bluetooth widget does it,,,
What do you mean by HTC stock bluetooth widget?
Can you explain that please? I don't understand where you see it.
BTW, the curve fish doesn't have that option.
Only, on and off, nothing about the "Discoverable" marking.

yes
the htc stock widget its in the widgets section in(long press on desktop..etc..)
and then browse the settings widgets and select the bluetooth widget...
u seen it now?
if u enables this widget your device is visible all the time,,
Thank you for helping but unfortunately you are wrong.
I'm not visible to any one, I must go to settings to enable this 120 seconds Discoverable option.
Maybe you tested it with Known-Partner and he already got you on list, but with new people it can't be visible, I just tested trice.

I have the solution, if you are still interested.
It's in main.conf file.
If you want to know more, just tell me.
Oh yes please!
Hah I recently came across this BT thing and remembered I've asked for it once..
Funny world
I'd love to hear the solution, I don't care messing with some system dangerous files..

On ICS and JB ROMs it's possible in bluetooth settings.

Content has been removed.
this method didn't work.
The time do get changed from 120 to 0 and successfully store but the permission after reboot return to read and write
If permissions won't stay, use root explorer and on properties press "sticky", and they stay there.
However, I'd simply go for JB or ICS, who have the visibility option in settings...
rather than giving the "sticky" to anything, since it's a special permission, for which, I admit, I don't know the full impact on system.

I have transferred the file to another device and changed everything with root explorer. This time all sticked well but these changes does not produce any effect in the stock Rom.
Regarding ICS and JB roms I haven't found one for this device yet. The ones that claim to be are just roms dressed with apps and mods to look like one. Not real ports.

[Q] Screen Takes A Few Seconds To Wake Up

I have an Epic 4G Touch, hence this question being in the Epic 4G Touch forum.
When I press the power button to turn on the display, it takes the phone anywhere between 1-3 seconds for the screen to turn on. The same thing happens when I'm on a phone call and the screen is off because of the proximity sensor. When I move the phone away from my head (say to use the dial pad), it again takes the screen 1-3 seconds before it turns on.
This seems like it's a bit longer than what it should be. What can I do to improve the situation?
I don't use any task killer apps (because they're bad for your OS), and I don't really have much running in the background. I use Minimalistic Text widgets and Llama, but I think that's all I've downloaded that runs in the background.
Thanks in advance for your replies

do a search on here its been discussed a few times already
it's because of the SD Card. It's a known issue. Some people don't mind, some people do. I'm the latter, it's annoyingly laggy.

So you're saying without the SD card that doesn't happen? Got any sources or further reading? Sounds like a huge bummer if this is the case...

Try GoSms with GoLocker I put both of them on my phone after I formatted my sdcard and moved my lockscreen background pic to my internal sd and it cut down on the lag

I use a pattern lock screen. Does GoLocker work with that?
Also, I read through those other threads you mentioned and people claimed that a class 10 micro SD card helped a lot with the lag, so I ordered a PNY class 10 off of Amazon.
I'll post results here when I get it.

Re-mapping physical keys, is it possible?

Hi everyone,
I was wondering, with regard to the LT15i, is it possible to assign a different purpose to any of the 3 keys along the bottom?
with the advent of on screen button mods I can still get the 'back' 'home' and 'menu' options on the screen and thought it would be wonderful if I could have on screen buttons and then assign the 3 physical keys to do something else.
maybe assign apps to each one?
If its not possible, and you know why, please try to explain why rather than just saying 'no' as im really interested in trying to learn here rather than just asking random questions
Thanks!

There's an app called buttonremapper that let's you change what buttons do, but I can't get it to work on my rom :/

Disable Touch Key Backlight on Google Edition

I hope someone can help me out with this (I guess most of my posts arent worth bothering with as they usually go untouched by anyone). I'm trying to figure out a way to disable the touch button backlight on a Google Edition ROM. I have been searching for an answer since the Google Edition hit. All I can ever find is how to disable on GSIII ROMs (non ge). If anyone can please help me out I would very much appreciate it. Thanks!

Screen Filter is an app that can disable the backlight of the softkeys. Set it to auto-start at boot and you should be good. I know its not a direct fix but its a low impact app that shouldnt effect battery life or operation.

Seems to work for me. Did it dim the screen at all (thats its main function)? Did you see the check box "enable softkey back light" (uncheck it) at the bottom of the app ui?

Yes, it did dim the screen, but if i uncheck the enable softkey back light, anytime I touch the screen the backlights still come on. Are you on a G.E. rom? I am currently on Infamouse G.E.

No im not. I am on AOSP (Slim Bean) though.
There are options to do this in AOKP and CM roms. Anybody know how those builds pull it off?
