ok first off i love the fresh roms so im not bashing.
does anyone else have an issue that seams to be directly related to flashing the new fresh 2.1.1 rom.
when im in a call and end it with the power button it restarts the phone.
is this because of what i think it is or something else.
i wiped everything when i flashed so i dont know what else it could be, in the mean time i guess i have to go back to fresh 1.1 sense i cant find a fresh 2.0d download link anymore and i deleted my nandroid and the 2.0d rom off my computer like an idiot. uneless someone could point me to a 2.0d link

probably should be in q&a or fresh's thread but here is a link all fresh's downloads are on geekfor.me should be at the bottom
http://geekfor.me/category/android21/page/2/
I found that the restarting issue on my end was linked to the battery stats and roation stats. After i wiped those, for some reason, i stopped restarting.

Can you elaborate on this? How do you wipe these stats?
i had the same problem but it was on fresh and damage control, i figured out it was the app i was using to call people with...called quick connect...
it didn't happen if i dailed with the stock dialer or through people...

Alright I did everything mentioned, above. i wiped the battery and rotation stats in ra recovery i even re partitioned my sd card and did a wipe data/factory reset plus the ext and dalvik-cache. then re flashed fresh 2.1.1.
also i am not using any other dialer that i know of. just the one that comes backed in the rom.
so why am i still resetting randomly!!! it even did it when i was doing nothing at all not just in a call like before.
this is on two seperate sprint htc heros that this is happening to.
anyone please help!

couple questions.
1. are you using any aggressive process killers, like the one found in spare parts?
2. what, exactly, do you mean by resetting? do you mean a quick 10 second restart of rosie, or a full on 1.5 minute reboot?

sorry i took so long to reply.
no process killers.
Im now able to replicate it restarting (not randomly) if i let the phone go to sleep by its self and sit for a minute when i hit the end button to wake it up nothing lights up like it should instead it does a full on 1.5 minute reboot every time.
on a separate thread someone suggested i try a different battery because whenever they put a different battery in it stopped resetting. (I was not able to try this yet because i don't have any spare batteries laying around)
I just find this hard to believe only a few people are having these problems and why no one seems to have a definitive answer.
This is kind of one of those bugs where I have to say it's something going on with your phone. Fresh Rom 2.1.1 has been downloaded over 4000 times. I restart mine constantly while testing things which means I am constantly duplicating your situation of restarting the phone, letting it sleep, and then turning it on via the power button, and I have never had this happen.
Please post a debug log of it happening and we'll see if we can figure out why your phone is doing it.
My sister had this issue even on stock 1.5. Rooted, added recovery still had it. Flashed 2.0d, still had it, went to recovery and wiped battery stats.
Haven't had it happen since. Now on 2.1.1 and all is well...go figure.

thank you for helping flipz, sorry for thinking it was something to do with your rom (foot in mouth). I now believe it a hardware issue related to any 2.1 fw.
This has happened to me on 2 different phones. Mine and my friends. Mine restarted "randomly" once i wiped the battery and rotation stats and it fixed mine. My friends on the other hand i could not get to stop restarting for the life of me. So i was forced to switch back to a 1.5 fw rom.
Point being it will take me a few days to get back over there and put a 2.1 fw back on it and get a debug log off of it. for now i can try using his battery in my phone and see if i have any issues. im crossing my fingers in hope i will so we can buy a new battery and see if it goes away for him.
in the mean time i can post a debug log for my phone but it probably wont do any good
i will try to post the results of the battery swap later today.
again thanx flipz i am confident with your help we can resolve this.
ok i thought i attached a error log but i guess its too big, so ill try zipping it and attaching it.
hero
I noticed reinserting the root file helped me also make sure your not using otwidhet or super pc unless u have a rom for it i use fresh toast 2.1 no problems quickquickquick

I kind of a noob, what do you mean reinserting the root file? i thought the root was the main directory not a file.
Also i dont know what "otwidhet" or "super pc" are, im assuming im not using them if they didnt come with the rom. right?
whoops, i forgot to post the results of swapping my battery with my fiends to see if i could single out a bad bad battery.
i didnt have any luck making my phone reset itself with his battery. One of these days im going to buy a couple new batteries put on in my friends hero and flash fresh 2.1.2 on it. Im also going to try using different radios on a hunch from a different thread i read.
i dont mean to waste anyones time im just busy and messing with phone is something i cant devote alot of time to especially sense i put a 1.5 fw rom on my friends phone and he no longer has any issues.
thanks for the patients in helping me guys.
ok im at a loss. i really need your guys help.
I put a 2.1fw on my buddies phone. put my battery in his phone let it go to sleep by itself and hit the end button to wake it up and it still does a reset. now i guess im not sure if it s a full on reset but it takes about a minute to reset.
so i put his battery in my phone and let it go to sleep and het the end button to wake it up and it also reset, now i did not clear the battery stats either and now after one time i can not get my phone with his battery to self reset for the life of me...???
no matter what bettery i try his phone will not stop resetting.
im posting an error log from his phone i got off adb using
adb bugreport > errorlog.txt
is that what im suppose to do? please help i would have been just fine with the 1.5fw on his phone but there was an audio issue that on some calls the person on the other end could not hear him.
does anyone know if the flipz audio fix will work for that or is that not a good ides?
Here is his error log, i hope this is what im suppose to post.
if anyone has any ideas about the audio fix for the 1.5fw that would be awesome cause now i gotta go back to that becasue i cant leave his phone with porblems.
Could it be that it is just Sense restarting and not the whole phone. Try using Fresh 2.1.2 with LauncherPro and see if you still have the problems. Make sure that you are not using the vanilla launcher in 2.1.1 as I had several instances where it caused instability.

I dont think thats the issue, my phone now restarts itself abuot once a day and i am using launcher pro. i also have my friends battey in my phone. so i guess is could still be the battery.
Im still confused on what i have to do to get some help from the devs. i posted a error log like asked if i was suppse tp post something else could someone please tell me? this is getting extremely frustrating. am i the only one here???
please someone help.
Have a few questions about Fresh, rooting, and Hero stuff in general, wasn't sure where to post. Wish there was a informal chat section.. lol
1. I've been running Fresh 1.5 with Gumbo Kernel and Fresh's android peep lock screen for about 5 months or so. Loved it. Decided to get with the times and try new roms, problem is most of them would boot loop my phone. After flashing all sorts, from what i can figure out, my phone won't take an overclocked ROM. Why might that be?
2. I Really wanted to run FreshToast, but it would either boot loop, or be so unstable it would reboot itself all day. So i settled on Fresh 2.1.2. Good so far (on day 2, fully configured), Almost seems like there isn't that much difference in performance from 1.5, but it's stable (which is one of the biggest things for me). I tried flashing Darchstar's Overclocked Kernel v4 for Fresh 2.1.2, but found that even an overclocked kernel boot loops. Is there any improved, non-overclocked kernel, like Gumbo, for 2.1.2?
3. Previously to running 2.1.2 i hated Launcher. I'm a senseUI guy. However it's not terrible i must admit. Been trying to get used to it just to try it out, however whenever i press the home button it takes me to sense home, then i have to press my shortcut back to Launcher. Is there a way to switch the default to Launcher, then later back to sense if i want? Some where there was an option for what the home button does, the way i read it was it would take to you Launcher home, guess not..
Last...
4. If i'm understanding it right, 2.1.2 is "Stock Clocked" to ~700MHz, so if you run OCwidget (or setCPU) that you are actually underclocking (which has it's uses i guess). So my question here is, Using OCwidget, does it Never hit ~700MHz?
So i lied..
5. I didn't realize there was Fresh 2.3.3 when i flashed 2.1.2. Is it worth the effort to reflash to 2.3.3? I don't see how some of you guys can swap back and forth between ROMs all the time. It takes me two solid days of going through all the settings to get everything back to preference, drive me nuts!
Sorry for the long post. Any input on any of these is greatly appreciated. I have done a lot of research, so i know most the lingo. I'm still a noob, but don't pamper me, let me know what's up.
....
6. How can i get a different lock screen on 2.1.2? I tried flashing the 'peep' one i had, but it didn't take. I've never had Fresh's Kitchen work for me, tried that too. I Hate the Vanilla lockscreen, mainly i just wanted something transparent, like the peep one.
I was hoping that day two and a full battery drain would fix this- pulled the phone off the charger for 5min to answer a phone call, batt dropped to 85%..
Hey guys,
I bought an HTC One about 15 days ago. Within 2-3 days of using it, I started getting problems with the display screen. I suppose this problem was seen by few people who owned the HTC One X but I couldnt find any useful solutions in those formums hence im posting here.
This is what happens:
1. Whenever I receive a call, the screen goes black and doesnot turn on until I hang up the call. This effectively makes the device useless as a phone, as I can't see who is calling and also during call I cannot access the screen.
2. Sometimes, there is a delay with the power button. When I press the power button, the touchscreen becomes responsive but the display doesn't turn on.
The problem is, if I factory reset the device, it starts working perfectly again!! Again after about 2 days it starts the same problems.
So I thought it was a software issue and so, I got s-off and installed the GPE Rom on the device. 7 days passed, no problems. On the 8th day, the same problem occured again. And as earlier, factory resetting solved the problem.
Is this a software issue, hardware issue or something else I dont know about?
I have taken a video of the device malfunctioning, but I don't know if I can post it as an attachment.
Thanks in advance!

upload it on youtube and post the link.
And something else. Make a factory reset again and then don't install any apps. Does the error also occure?
Im new to XDA forums and hence the site does not allow me to post URLS. However I have uploaded the video to youtube.
If you put 'HTC One screen problem Aniruddha Joshi ' in the youtube search box, you will find my video.
Im sorry I couldnt think of any other way
I did not install anything out of the ordinary. Just updated the existing google apps and installed facebook, twitter and whatsapp! No crazy apks or unknown apps.
Also, once I factory reset the phone, it starts working perfectly and there is no way to know the time after which it starts giving problems again. Once it was 3 hours, once it was a week.
So I don't have any way to check if some app is causing the problems.

after seeing your video, I am even more confused. I really don't know what could cause this problem. But the fact, that I didn't have this issue and almost no other person too, makes me think about a hardware defect. But the randomness and that it only occures after several days don't support this theory. So the only thing we can do about his is basic troubleshooting.
- 1) Try to flash Cyanogenmod and try this mod for several days
- 2) Try another Rom, for example: Omni Rom
- 3) Try to use a different Kernel for GPE stock.
- 4) Use a RUU that matches for you
Sorry, I don't have any other ideas left! But after this troubleshooting we may get new information or gain some knowledge that allows us to determine the cause of this error more exactly!

Try flashing a Sense ROM, like ARHD or MaximusHD?

The original device shipped with sense Rom. I flashed GPE to check if it was a software fault. But no luck. It gave the same problem although significantly later(about a week after I flashed it).
One more thing, I hope this gives some more information..
One time, I had rooted the device and installed a custom recovery. The phone was then working perfectly for about 4-5 days. and then later when I went ahead and unrooted the device, it immediately started giving problems. So I rooted it again hoping that the problem will go away, but no luck...the problem persisted. So, I had no option than to factory reset again, at which point it started working perfectly again.
This is all so bizarre, I have never seen something like this happen
This is just a theory, but is it possible that there is a problem with the hardware which gets triggered only on certain conditions, like some interrupt, or flag or something like that?
So until those conditions are not met, the device runs perfectly, and when they are, it starts giving issues.
Thats all i can think of as the reason.
well its clearly something youre installing if it is occuring after a few days, a root app which controls your sensor or brightness probably, do you have apps of that nature?

No I rooted the device but did not install any root apps...i unrooted the device to install the GPE Rom(not necessary i know, but it seemed like a proper way) and found that it started giving problems immediately. Can non-root regular apps also cause such problems? I had installed only a limited number of apps anyway, updated the pre installed apps, facebook, twitter, whatsapp, some games..thats it..nothing wierd..
Might be a Screen-Off max. frequency issue. Like the phone gets only 500Mhz in sleep mode at maximum. Which is to low for an incoming call. Could you install a app like Android Tuner or Trickster Mod to check your Screen-Off Max frequency. If it`s that low, set it to ~1000Mhz.

That is very stange indeed. As I don't know any other causes for this error than:
Underclocked CPU or/and GPU on screen off
Root application that controls the brightness
Hardware issue(But what would cause this???)
I can only advice you:
Since you are S OFF, take a RUU, and follow this guide and ****ing set back your device back to stock! Don't root it! Don't use custom kernels. Don't install any strange apps that may control your display brightness. SERIOUSLY! Don't install an app that controls brighness even if it works on a friends phone! Just don't!
And if you still get this issue: It is a hardware issue! If you followed step by step the instruction and if you did everything I told you to do, it HAS to be a hardware issue! The fact that the error didn't appear on GPE that fast is caused by the lower performance requierement by GPE! So I seriously have doubt that this issue is caused by a hardware defect. But it isn't impossible for sure. I just have the impression that you changed some system files and you didn't know what you were doing. This is NOT against you, but it seems to be a reasonable possibility because a factory doens't reset the /system partiton.
P.S.
I'd be very kind if you hit the thanks button since we, the community, are really trying to help you.

I will definitely follow your guide and try to troubleshoot the problem. I hope its not some hardware defect and I dont have to send the device to HTC. I've heard those guys are poor at customer service
Thanks a lot, you've been a great help!
Btw, I was trying to find that Thanks button since the first day, I just couldn't figure out where it was. I just did.
Thanks again
Yup try installing kernel and custom rom.
Remove the case and try ( i know this is stupid thing but can give it a try)

Hi there, so all of a sudden i realised that my screen wasnt responding because when i would scroll down or swipe across app or links or watever that was in a certain section would just be selected randomly or the scroll or swipe just wouldnt do (i have included a zip file with a video in it demonstrating what is going on. In the video you can also see that i have problems pulling down the notification bar as that part of the screen is messed up). So therefore i decided to check the HTC Guide app which allows to check out stuff on your phone to see if its working. There i checked the line drawing test, (i had done it before so my phone defo didnt come lke that). When i did the test i realised that certain parts of the screen werent working. (i have also included a zip file with a video showing what is happening). Therefore I'm asking anyone if they can help me with this. I have tried going into SafeMode. And nothing happened except that when i rebooted my phone i lost some apps like BleacherReport(that is the only app i can remember as of right now)
Additional Info: **I'M A NEWBIE SO PLZ EXCUSE ME **
I have a HTC ONE M7 which i rooted this past JUNE. I currently have KitKat 4.4.2 with ViperOne 6.2.1 ROM with a Kernel ElementalX- 14.12.
I have never dropped my phone on its screen without the case. The case has a lip so the screen has never been affected.

Hi there, so all of a sudden i realised that my screen wasnt responding because when i would scroll down or swipe across app or links or watever that was in a certain section would just be selected randomly or the scroll or swipe just wouldnt do (i have included a zip file with a video in it demonstrating what is going on. In the video you can also see that i have problems pulling down the notification bar as that part of the screen is messed up). So therefore i decided to check the HTC Guide app which allows to check out stuff on your phone to see if its working. There i checked the line drawing test, (i had done it before so my phone defo didnt come lke that). When i did the test i realised that certain parts of the screen werent working. (i have also included a zip file with a video showing what is happening). Therefore I'm asking anyone if they can help me with this. I have tried going into SafeMode. And nothing happened except that when i rebooted my phone i lost some apps like BleacherReport(that is the only app i can remember as of right now)
Additional Info: **I'M A NEWBIE SO PLZ EXCUSE ME **
I have a HTC ONE M7 which i rooted this past JUNE. I currently have KitKat 4.4.2 with ViperOne 6.2.1 ROM with a Kernel ElementalX- 14.12.
I have never dropped my phone on its screen without the case. The case has a lip so the screen has never been affected.
So again can someone plz help.

Have you installed/flashed anything lately?
You might try to flash your stock firmware, if you could find a no-wipe one for your phone it will save you from having to move all your personal items off of the phone. This will replace your kernel but you can add it back later. If the stock firmware doesn't fix the touch screen you might have to send it to HTC for repair.

Sorry. We've removed as much as we can and we still have the smallest ROM that I'm aware of.
Great Job Team YAR
Ok since i am new it wont let me post to the forums But instead go into the q/a.. So team YAR Firstly i just want to say great work on the rom however i few have few concerns and such.... Hangouts is great for sms however some people like the stock sms anyway to reimpliment that in case of someone not wanting to use hangouts as default as that is the only sms that is implemented in the rom. Also battery life is ok not a lot of things to bog it down however for some reason when your in the 3g vs 4g lte battery drain is hell. Is that a common issue when you have a 4g lte phone? Also i took a look through the build prop when i found out this rom has zero tethering capabilities. I turned the values on the build prop to reflect that tething is all in fact on however it does not allow tethering it stays greyed out. I could tether without an issue before this rom using Raptop rom. Im not calling any rom better i feel it is a based on taste decision. But i would like your rom 100% better if it included tethering. Also with this phone and i dont know if it falls the same for all boost variants but the hotspot feature has to do a subscription check to see if you actually paid for a monthly subscription. I did a little digging on the stock rom and found how to bypass it and tether without an issue. But could you please for the sake of other people include tethering with or without a bypass either native or a working 3rd party app. Also is there a way to make more space up because htc and boost did a real job on leaving little to no space and even with links2sd dont clear much up. Could removing some of the launchers help resolve the space issue?..... Sorry for the novel just my concerns

Try pulling the battery. When I get hung up like that sometimes, pulling it usually does the trick. Worth a try. Let us know.
Oh yeh, was coming from RaptorRom v2. Cant get voicemail notifications with it and no visual voicemail so hoping to get on DragonRom. Yeh I have to do battery pull when the HTC screen freezes cause the power won't shut off at that point even when held down. The zip says it flashes and installs SUCESSFULLY, so I don't get it.

Sometimes I have to do a "factory reset/wipe" like 3-4 times and then flash the ROM again. Usually, if all is good and I am installing the right thing, doing the right things etc, if boots up eventually. I know it can be a pain in the As* and it gets very frustrating at times, but usually it'll eventually work. Good luck man!!!
Well i dont guess im going to get a reply to my question lol

We didn't implement native tethering at this time. I'm sure its a function well include in a future version.
Per the space issue, Minimalist has literally just about everything we could remove, removed, if we find more things to remove, we will continue to do so. We are already planning our next release, unfortunately there is no eta currently.
As per Hangouts. I think the reason @dragonhart6505 included it is because it functions both as SMS and Hangouts. It's killing two birds with one stone for those that use Hangouts. As always, you can remove anything you deem unnecessary and replace it with your preferred app. I'm not at my computer, but if I remember correctly it is located in /system/app so you'll have to use Titanium to remove it. The kernel is pre-rooted and the write protection is disabled.

Native tethering has not been enabled as of yet, but we will work on including it. I use PDANet to tether via USB and Bluetooth, but its WiFi function does not work on our device. We'll get tethering resolved in a near update.
As @dip_spit said, we removed as much as possible while staying sure everything worked as it should. I am currently tearing through the entire system to find what cam be removed and what should stay. Minimalist is perfect if space is a concern, however you wont get much more than ~1gb on a stock based rom.

We recommend flashing from a Stock TWRP backup and factory reset as other roms appear to be conflicting with the permissions needed by a stock-based rom.
We apologize for the inconvenience and we are working on making DragonRom a fully flashable, self-sustained rom that requires no such system to be installed prior to flashing. It is alot of work getting the permissions necessary for this, so please bare with us.
Ive been late to the thread here as i was unaware it existed. Ive now subbed to the thread and will monitor it frequently
Ty
Thank you i was just wondering spacewise if links to sd would clear much more space if i was flashing minimalist rom and building from there? Also as for the tethering i hope its in your future release because i do tether alot lol and i cant always make use of bluetooth tether. But great job never the less im looking forward to testing anything new. Also i have a stock roms from any carrier as well as build.prop from any said carrier if needed.

1st off... absolutely love this rom. I've been running the minimal rom for over a week, almost as soon as it was posted. Most storage space I've had yet on my phone! Any problems I had with initial install have easily been dealt with. The one problem I had from from the install was google play not working, would crash as soon as launched. Was solved by sending new version from my computer to install on phone. After my friend saw the rom, we tried to install the featured rom on his phone which got stuck on the HTC boot screen. This problem was solved by installing the stock backup from this site then installing the rom again. But again we love this rom, Thanks Team YAR!!!
Does DragonROM currently support Link2SD's mount scripts at boot for other filesystems than FAT? Also, how risky would it be to try Xposed at this stage of development?

Xposed works pretty well for everyone who everyone who has installed. Remember to make TWRP backups before you install anything.
Front Facing Camera
**Ok I did a search from camera on this particular thread and nothing popped up, so sorry if someones already covered this but....
Has anyone tested the front facing camera on this mod? I need my selfies brah. Nah! but would be nice to have this back! Yo! My camera? Sweet innocent camera --never hurt anyone.
I think I screwed myself.
I think I really got a BRICK here. Ok, I did something stupid. I flashed the HBOOT trying to get the S-OFF but failed. All I got not is HBOOT and under that it says checking.,... overlaying the word checking are the words Press <POWER> to reboot. And that is it. If I try to boot regularly is hangs on the HTC Logo. Did I just really brick my phone for life???
FYI, device is NOT found using adb or fastboot. Interesting this though, when I did have the nonsense rom up and had this HBOOT issue, I could boot regularly and use flashify to boot into recover. So recover is there I just have NO way of getting to it now. Every since I flash with Dragon, no offence, cause dragon is hanging on me at the HTC Logo. AAAAHHHHHHHUUUGHHH. I just broke my phone, I think.

Unfortunately, I think you did.
Have you tried pulling the battery and then after you put it back in hold the volume down button and then press the power button until it comes on to see if you can get into your recovery application?

WAIT! I'm back in baby!!!! HOOOOLLLLIYYYY MOLE' Apparently the HBOOT IMG was in the form of a zip files that was placed in the root of the SD CARD. As I go into HBOOT, bootloader is trying to upgrade to this zip file.. Once I took the SD Card out, bouya! HBOOT is back. What a scare that was. Still having issues booting into the new flash rom, however. I think i'm done for today though... i'm hanging up the hat for the day.
My phone is stuck on the HTC screen after installing DragonRom through the TWRP. I followed all of the directions. I'm on VM.
