First Day with Gingerbread Rom

Installed Gingerbread yesterday, and would like to share my experience of the first day.
Here are a few things I noticed.
1. Overall speed of phone is better then froyo. My phone used to lag sometimes on froyo, but on gingerbread it's flying.
2. Battery life is better then before. Definitely better. Last's around 3-4 hrs longer than froyo.
3. One issue that might be in my phone is that movies played with a slight lag, but GB rom fixes this issue as well.
4. HTC Sense 2.1 is good, slight improvement. The new app drawer is better, organizing everything in All Apps, Frequent and Downloaded.
...will continue to bring updates as days progress.
Will also try to post some screenshot or video if possible soon.

How did you manage it get GB on an S-On, in India?

How is the GPS?

Lol. Not functioning on Vibrant. Works fine on Captivate. Ghey right....
Sent from this one thing that uses another thing to...WTF is this thing ringing?!?

Yes ... The update really is awesome

It's cool to see the better battery time. Usually I will need to charge my Incredible S in the late afternoon under my heavy use. It seems that after the update it may be able to sustain 1 day long for my use.

To install GB on S-ON IS i india, just create a Goldcard using this method:

Then download the official ROM from the Shipped Rom Section here:

I used the Virgin ROM.
And flash as normal. Worked flawlessly here.

Had the same issue, but now its somehow better.

Mine shipped with GB as i got mine through Optus Australia. Weird for us to be ahead in the android software..... Aussie carriers are usually slow
Im loving it btw, so smooth and the multitasking ability is great.... although i did just come from a Dream/G1......

could anyone run Quadrant on gingerbread and post up the scores? it would be interesting to compare

Average of 4 quadrant results:
1575

Ok, this is the second day now. Everything has been fine.
One thing i noticed is that weather of my current location is not getting updated. Also the weather screens didn't update properly once or twice.
GPS is working ok, kinda locates me very well and fast.
Sent from my HTC Incredible S using XDA App

I have noticed this weather widget location problem too, it is specific to HTC widgets as beautiful widgets still update the location fine. I am looking into this issue to see if I can correct it in my ROM

Is the phone mic usable when a normal headphone without mic is plugged in during a call?

Now that you've mentioned it, i tried other HTC widgets too.... result.... The people widgets some times goes blank... takes a few secs to load the people I have added to the people widget. However, working fine for past 8-9 hrs now.

It's so tempted to install this RUU. Just saw an article in Android Advices regarding rooting the new Galaxy S II, and its so easy. Why couldn't HTC do the same.

Updated to 2.3.3 yesterday and muyt say everything runs a lot smoother. Still some stucking at widgets.

I have notice that the Sounds by pushing the Buttons sometimes Not work, after using over an hour.
And there is way to personalize the homescreen in the setting, when I click that it goes directly to the homescreen. Whitout any function. Sorry for my Bad english.

Anyone who installed GB, can mesure current consuption (with CurrentWidgwt) when the screen is off and when u put the device in airplane mode(screen off)? tx

Would like to know if the keyboard swap faster when you rotate the phone when typing I found it pretty slow in 2.2

I want to upgrade my IS to GB too. But I want to backup the current ROM. Is there any way to do it? My phone has S-on.

Non responsive touchscreen

Hello,
Since I've bought my Incredible S about 8 months ago, I've been experiencing this problem. Somethimes, when I'm writing a message, there is 1 letter that doesn't work, if I press on it, it chooses the letter besides it. If I exit the app and reopen it, everything is fine. So its only the keyboard that's acting weird.
I had this on the standard 2.3.3 and 2.3.5 and now on 4.0.3 with the Virtuous Quatrro ROM.
Now I'm using the default ICS keyboard, on Gingerbread I used Better Keyboard.
Does anyone know a sollution?
Just to notice, my phone was send to HTC for repair somewhere around Octobre last year, and they replaced the whole front, including the screen. 2 weeks before that, they replaced the motherboard. So I still had the problem after the repair. And I think it's not software related, bevause it's just when I'm typing something, and not when I'm scrolling trough menu's or something like that.

Had the same problem. And I have a solution: don't notice it
I know its irritating sometimes, but that's not a real problem, so take it easy

Well, half the times I'm writing a message there is at least one key not working, and I have to reopen the app, it's quite frustrating...

I have had that problem with my mum's Wildfire S as well.
But then i realized that the phone had not been rebooted in a while.
Restarting the phone did the trick so i assumed that there were too many programs running in the background.
However, now after i guess a couple of months, the problem still persists albeit at a very minor stage.

Either lock the screen then unlock it. Or reboot the phone.
Both methods work for me when I get this issue. I use the lockscreen when I need my phone but if I've got a 5mins spare ill reboot.

The funny part is when this issue occurs, sliding the lock screen also seems impossible

Then lockscreen and unlock it again and all is fixed? ..... when I have issues with lock screen I just lock and re-unlock then it fixes it.
Does that work for you?

Locking and unlocking the lockscreen helpes, but there has to be a permanent sollution for this right?

Not that I know of. ....are you using just stock lockscreen etc or do you have 3rd party apps like widget locker?

All I can say it maybe try a different rom or kernel. Other than that I'm unsure maybe something internally it knackered as a worst case scenario.
Sent from my Incredible S using xda premium

I had this problem aswell. It started out in the same way as yours just being a tad un responsive, but slowly got worse. What it turned out to be was that digitizer was faulty as I replaced the digitizer myself and the problem was solved. As you say that the screen etc has been replaced before this could well be the case. I would recommend getting in done professionally as it isn't an easy job. Look on the market for a touch screen test app and see if you have any dead spots.

i've had the unresponsive lockscreen issue when using cm7 and cm7 based roms, then today i checked set cpu and i had a profile for screen off - a low clock speed with conservative governor. Changed to interactive and slightly high clock speeds and dont seem to be facing the issue any more....at least its been okay for the past 6 hours...hope this helps

I find if you lock the phone and wipe the screen until it's nice and clean it fixes this problem. It could be caused by a buildup of finger oils on the screen, or from your face after making a call. Not to sure though.

How to Force Restart

What is Force Restart?
When phones is not responding and hanged up, most of users pull battery out and start their phone up. This action cause serious damages to eMMC Chip. So, most of smartphone manufacturer include a key combination to do force restart in their product.
How:
Volume Down + Volume Up + Power for few sec.
My Test: On Icecoldsandwitch 7.2, Cyanogen 7.1 and Virtuous Quattro RC3 custom roms
You can also test on your phone; test it and replay your result with roms' names
I'm very interested to know how it works on Official rom

good to know - im one of the battery pulling majority and as a result the indent on the case where you put your nail in to prise the case off has become quite rough with the black plastic coming off!
wish i'd known this 14 months ago!

Playgound ICS, newest version. And it is a hard freeze. Even the charging light remains on, until battery literally runs out or gets removed. No button (soft or hardware) is responding to anything.

Tested on Virtuous Quattro RC3 , works successfully even in hanging

Yes, It will, let me give you an example, It's not perfect one but it's similar situation. when your computer does not respond, you hold the power button and computer turning off, or in laptops when your system is hanged up are you holding power button or pull your laptop's battery?
ofcourse we cannot compare smartphones with computer systems but what should you do if - for example - htc one s hanged up? (soft freeze) you can't pull battery out
so according to my tests, in soft freeze situation, you can force restart

When my phone is freezing I give it a blanket... if that doesn't work I throw it in the sauna.
Anyway, I've to pull the battery if it hangs since no buttons/keys are working.
No, it doesn't work to hold volume up/down+power.
Yea, I've tried. Like each time it happens just in case it might work once.
Can't think of any other answers I might get to answer

according to other froum users, Force Restart fully worked in UI hanging, the order is V down + V up + Power for 6 sec.

HTC desire c stuck in landscape

Hi
I'm wondering if anyone can help me out with this. I have the desire c (branded to 3 and rooted) it has worked great for awhile but recently the screen keeps going into landscape and getting stuck there (even when holding it up right) I've tried turning auto rotate off but it still happens usually a restart fixes it for awhile but then it starts again. I found a app on the market that can force it back into portrait but then I can't make some apps full screen like YouTube. I've tried a factory reset a few times both through settings and by pushing power and volume up but not long after it starts happening again.
Anyone have any idea why this is happening?
Thanks.
Sent from my HTC Desire C using xda app-developers app

Maybe you should backup your current rom, and then install a custom one maybe some files relating to the sensors could be corrupt.

Thanks i may try using a generic rom to see if it fixes it. What's the best way to back up my current rom? Gonna need to go back to it if I have to sent it off to get fixed.

Well I tried nameless Rom but it didn't fix it so looks like I'm gonna have to send my phone off for repair

Try calibrating your sensors.
Sent from my Texus 4 toaster

Thanks I tried that but no luck the odd thing is the sensor seems to work cause I can play that game where you control the ball with the sensor. But its started doing other stuff now like it keeps turning the screen on on its own and putting phone on loud speaker and pausing music etc.

Sent from my Texus 4 toaster

My wife's Desire C has the same problem. Stuck in landscape most of the time. Screen turning on, phonecalls sometimes suddently go to speaker. Sensors are working fine if you ask me.
I was trying to root it when I read this topic, I still might try a custom rom though.

Glad I'm not the only one who had this problem. Maybe there's a fault with some of the handsets or something.
I gave up and sent mine off for repair now.

Heyyy!!! Did u find any solution for your problem. My phone is also starting to behave in the same way....

I think I found the solution. It seems like the problem is with HTC's ROM based on ICS 4.0 and 4.0.4. I tried just about any ROM based on ICS (stock and custom) with any kernel combination and the problem repeats itself.
Flashed CM 10.1 and the problem is gone.

Wait a 60 seconds then close window and upload, do this as soon as you boot. We need also a last_kmsg of the reboot issue if one is created (sometimes it isn't). For this just copy /proc/last_kmsg and upload after the reboot happens, if it doesn't exist then it wasn't created during your reboot. My friend @laufersteppenwolf is working on a fix for this, he thinks its due to bad sources, he already has my logs but some additional "testimony" might be helpful

Which superuser app do you use? After switching from supersu to clockwork su reboots seem to have stopped. But sometimes they don't happen for a while. What I'm gonna do is use the app "root logger" to trace shell activity, maybe something I use is accidentally issuing this command, because it does it like terminal does it.

New from three, only a month in, they gave me a second one, still happens sometimes. The new .142 firmware helped, now it only seems to happen with < 35% battery, so I think it relates to that. You said you had some shutdowns on low battery too right? I think on the previous firmware something really intensive like playing modern combat 4 online caused some sort of power failure, on the new one its only unstable once the battery is low. So its bearable now, once my battery is that low I tend to recharge
Sent from my LT30p using Tapatalk 4 Beta

I am affraid that the battery in T is big fail. It is not normal, to have such big drop in voltage (in li-on battery) on heavy load.
In full load, the voltage drop can be about 300 - 400 mV, which means when you have 3,6V (which could be around 40%) and the battery drops to 3,2V, that the phone shuts down. Android probably doesn't know that, because it isn't stable 3,2V so there is no notification.
Install Cooltool, go to advanced, custom label path, write there "/sys/devices/platform/msm_ssbi.0/pm8921-core/pm8921-charger/power_supply/battery/voltage_now" and select labels, custom label.
Watch the voltage when playing.
I already ordered new battery, so I will test it with new.
Btw what is the capacity of your battery? There are two - 1850 and 1780 mAh.
