INSTRUCTIONS
Requirements:
▪ Clockworkmod Recovery (See note below)
▪ Radio 2.x
▪ hboot 0.92 Recommended (See post #635 for hboot 0.92 and instructions)
▪ A Full Wipe Highly Recommended! (Required if this is the first version you are installing)
NOTE: Will not flash over a stock Froyo 2.2 Rooted ROM.
Copy ROM to root of the SDCARD
Either use ROM Manager (Preferred with Wipe) to install it or boot into recovery and install it that way
NOTE: Be patient on first boot since it may sit for a few minutes at the Droid Eye
DISCLAIMER: As usual, flash at your own risk and don't forget to backup your current installation before flashing.
ClockWorkMod Recovery: Now that most people are on ClockWorkMod 3 I will only be creating CWM3 versions.
Version 6.3 for ClockWorkMod v3.0.0.7 >> Direct Download
MD5 = b33f747432cdd93b11ef820592dee722
IMPORTANT: Flash over v4..x or 5.x of this ROM works fine. For a fresh install you must be using CWM v3.0.0.7+ with ROM Manager or alternatively wipe in recovery, then install/choose zip from SD Card
RULE OF THUMB: If you flash over and have lags or FC's or things just don't work the flash again with a complete wipe
Known Problems, Limitations, and Changes:
Known Problems
As far as I can tell the only thing not working 100% is the
* Not always sending MMS (picture etc.) while on WiFi.
- Fix I just watch and turn off and back on Mobile with the widget when it doesn't and it sends
* No Touch Tones in "In Call keypad" like for Voice Mail password
- Fix = Go into Settings > Sound and set Audible touch sounds to long.

Ooo, you tease!, Can't wait, Thanks Nils
Interesting....
Is this based off the Desire Z port? Any hints as to what you might be changing?

Yup it is.
All I have really done was add my Business Sense theme, apps and some of it's related mods.
I am also releasing v1.1 with the stack Froyo 2.2+ kernel since it fixes a few things like sync animation. Will post more when I fill the first post.

I have been following that thread since day 1. From all reports from my v1 all is working except the CamCorder.
Replacing the ported kernel with the stock HTC kernel fixed a few things.
Can you think of things you are specifically interested in.
Does jig....
Link up in post 1 for Version 1.1
Nice buddy...good work!! I am loving the Desire rom and with the added skins and clocks for it makes it awesome..now to have your tweaks along with it...awesome!! Def going to flash this in a little bit...

Yea I have using that ROM for a few days now.
Few things to note:
1) really laggy and even freeze up when installing apps.
Minor:
1) In the call, top left says "unknown", it should be Verizon Wireless.
2) HTC Sense launcher would force close once in a while, but I haven't noticed it since I changed the kernel
3) It rebooted when I was charging and streaming music, again this could be kernel related.
Thanks!

I have not niticed the lag when installing.
The first one of the minor I forgot about. The kernel seems to fix 2 and 3.

Also, does your internal memory mount when connecting to PC?
I will try out your ROM in a bit, to see if the lag only happens in Incdoes' ROM maybe not in yours.
Do you think I can just flash your ROM on top of IncDoes' without wiping?
This is exactly the right direction to take the Z port in. Always thought the Z port will become the base ROM for work from Nils/Incubus/Lou/Skyraider/bored because of the extra features in the base ROM, htcsense.com, speed advantages compared to the official verizon RUUs.
Good work, sir! Will be flashing it very shortly.

For me, its battery life. I don't know what it is about the rom, but it murders my battery. It is so difficult, since i love the updated sense, but having a ~60% battery drop overnight really kills it for me..

I am getting the same battery life with this ROM as I did with my Incredible Business Sense ROM with the stock Incredible Kernel.
There are a lot more things syncing so I turned everything off except weather and activsync mail
Anybody try Picture MMS, I was using the Desire-Z rom and it wasn't working for sending and would assume this would have the same issue. Anybody tested it or could let me know?
Hi!
I recently flashed my IncS with Ehab's latest ROM v1.2a including Sense 3.5 (questions goes here, not into thread because I'm new here...). In order to restore my settings and a number of apps I used TitaniumBackup Pro and backupped user apps and most system apps and settings. Restore went smoothly after flashing.
I very much liked the idea to have some shortcuts on the lockscreen - but although I activated them in the settings they won't show up.
Anyone else having this problem? Any ideas how to solve it?
I had that problem when I flashed my first sense 3 ROM. But it was because I deleted something I shouldn't have. So probably you messed something up restoring a system app that doesn't belong in sense 3,5.
I had to reflash the ROM to get it to work

Recently i updated my htc one to the new version of Android Revolution HD 30.0 ONLINE based on sense 5.5.
1) Where did the lock screen customization gone?
ok so they added another screen with widget but now you can't even change the wallpaper!!!
2) When i lock the device and the push on the power again the time appear after a split second that's pretty weird
3)why all the modes on the sense 5 Toolbox doesn't work for me? For example turning ON the "Transparent status bar" and nothing happens, even after i'm restarting
this refers to all who uses this rom

1. Ask HTC I would really like to know as well - I like the new feauteres, but they really messed up with the lockscreen IMHO. However, it is not a final base from them, so hopefully this changes.
2. Base bug, performance setting - never experienced tho.
3. Sense Toolbox 2.2 is for Sense 5.0, not Sense 5.5 - therefore not all features work. An update is on it's way.

If you have Xposed framework + sense toolbox 2.2 installe correctly it should work.
I just tested the transparent bar function and it is working.
Oh, and you have to reboot the shell (soft reboot) to see the changes in the sense framework - maybe you forgot that step.
I have also noticed on ARHD 30 system ui has stopped notification every now and again tried dirty flashing again but problem still persists. I can't do a full wipe as my pc is dead atm

Try updating to 31, and the toolbox to 2.3. Not having any issues like that.
I have the HTC Dev edition, running ARHD 41 (just installed) with Xposed framework installed/updated. I'm trying to change status bar icons (blue themed) and enabled volume wake, as well as a bunch of other little things and none of them seem to work. I run Nova Launcher by default, which I'm hoping some of these tweaks work with, but even in the sense launcher, nothing is applying after hard or soft reboots. Please help, I can provide more information if needed.

I installed latest viper ROM. The lock screen initially was 3 way unlock. With some changes it became round unlock with no application tray. Now I cannot go back. Can someone please help? I am very new to ROM.
You probably set the lockscreen to AOSP. Go to Viper Settings and you should be able to get it back to stock.
The ViperROM is very customizable, so you have to be cautious. But it's one of the greatest ROMs I know of. (used to run it on my EVO LTE)
