I used to have the same problem as you, with the exact behaviors. To be more precise, it would usually shut down when the voltage is around 3800 mV. I tried everything but I didn't work, then I replaced the battery and boom, no problem ever since. If it is the problem with your battery, you can try another solution below as well:

[HTC Sensation] darkburst1991:
Hawke, I check every time my phone shuts down...I am not generating a last_image.(no battery pull either). Last night I fully charged phone and wiped battery stats, even though some say it is irrelevant, and my phone went about 8 hours before it stated shutting down randomly, also my battery drain essay faster than normal...usually after 8 hours I have 60

% and today i was already down to 20....you think I should try a new battery?

Hi,

I think this is a Sense issue.

It happens to me with my Sense 3.6 on the Sensation,but it works perfectly on my 4.0.3 Android Prime,(no Sense)

Go figure...

:)
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
ok very strange yr not generating a last_kmsg, you sure you not because that would be really helpful in figuring out whats going on. theres a lot of stuff in /proc need to scroll to almost the bottom..

if you have a spare battery maybe give that a try, otherwise im not sure what else to suggest. you could try stock kernel i guess?
[HTC Sensation] darkburst1991:
I know it's strange...it's driving me nuts! I've pulled a last_kmsg before and I'm sure that there isn't one in the /proc folder.

I'm going to try stock kernel and maybe a new battery.

Thanks for the input! Appreciate it.
[HTC Sensation] N10AP:
OK clean battery contacts. There was a certain amount of oxidization on mine, and I`ve cleaned it off.

Seems to be a common-ish problem.

Clean contacts, and then colour them in with a graphite pencil to add some (conductive) protection to the contacts and prevent them oxidizing so quickly in the future ;)
[HTC Sensation] BIGMOH:
Awesome addition Mike!

Has anyone else tried it out?

I've gone ahead changed it on my build.prop file, and i have to say my speed has improved by an increase of 1Mbps down.:confused:

Although I'm still not reaching my maximum potential. So far the max I've been able to download at is 4.03 Mbps.

When i stick my the same sim into my HTC Amaze 4G the max I've got is close to 18.07 Mbps down.

Thoughts or ideas would be appreciated, thanks!

Fine controle volume mod

Hi, anybody tried fine controle volume mod? Is it working as it should?

I tried it and here's what happens. Let's say I'm playing music with my earphones, volume at 100%, I lower the volume by one click, I feel like it lowers by 20%, then another click, it lowers a lot again, then the third click, no volume at all. At forth click, back to the volume it should be at (around 80%). This is the volume I hear, but the display bar of the volume is okay...

anybody had this issue? thanks

When last_kmsg isn't available after reboot, it's probably hardware issue. I haven't last_kmsg generated always when I overclock my Sensation to much or when I set too low or to high CPU voltage.
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Make sure you have the latest touch screen 4EXT.

Then,you need to select 1.5 GHZ when you are installing the ROM.

[HTC Sensation] N10AP:
Hmmm... OK maybe copper slip instead?

Or tin the contacts with LEADED solder, using isopropyl to clean flux residue from the tin?
[HTC Sensation] darkburst1991:
and whatta ya know...

:p

After a day of no Last_kmsg, i finally got one... let me know what any of you fine gentlemen think.
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
First time I have heard that after hundreds of downloads, but I will do some testing. Are you using the Finer Volume Control mod or the Finest Volume Control mod? Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] Masrawy:
I tried both, both are doing the same issue. I even reflashed every one to make sure... I was surprised two.

thank you!

edit: I just retried it again, I think it's working fine with the music app. But I never use it, I only use poweramp and it's still doing it again.
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
maybe just clean it carefully, lithium is really explosive and if you short the battery with IPA you're likely to cause a a big bang!

non metalic scouring pad should work.. but please be careful when messing around with battery contacts!
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
First: that line appears twice in build.prop. Make sure you change both.

Second: that works well with this RCData file: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/40459588/PG58IMG.zip

You won't match GB speeds yet, but you'll get close.

Anyone tried out AROMA|Tweaks?

Saw it on the portal and will try it out when I get home. Looks pretty good but only states that it was tested on InsertCoin.
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
hmm im not great at reading these but there doesnt seem to be anything in there that looks bad. usually when there is a battery issue it causes kernel to panic and call for a shutdown but none of that, i cant see any phone shutdowns controlled or otherwise :rolleyes:

was hoping for a bit more of a smopking gun! maybe someone can spot something ive missed? :D

[HTC Sensation] JazzMac251:
Is wifi calling ever going to be stable in this ROM? I've been waiting for this for months. Haven't had consistently functioning wifi calling since the builds that happened well before the XE edition was introduced. WiFi calling consistently hangs at "enabling", or fails during a call on 4.0.3 buids, and inconsistently works about 40% of the time on 2.3.x builds.

Currently on 6.5.1, TMOUS.
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
It will be stable once we have updated wifi calling engine from HTC for ICS.
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
I will start upload today, links will be tomorrow.
[HTC Sensation] joaquinf:

Why is this happening over again with every release?? people need to chill out and stop asking for eta or download links

The others change in changelog of 6.5.4 who are upload yesterday ?
[HTC Sensation] HorstDCC:
battery life 6.5.3

Just reporting, the time interval is much to short to be a valid test.

Either battery life with stock kernel is double of what it is with SebastianFM's kernel on 6.5.3 XE or the reported level of battery charge is that much more reliable. I have cleared statistics but did not recalibrate the battery. This observation was made with average daily usage.

With stock kernel it seems to be 40+ hours without recharging.

cheers
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
It seems that they must match for maximum effect, and that both of the rcdata.img files worked with the matching ro.ril.hspxa settings to get close to the performance we used to get with the GB ROMs. PaulGiz seemed to get slightly better results with the DisH=3 version, and I got slightly better results with the DisH=2 version.

Stock keyboard with arrows?

Anybody knows where I can get stock HTC keyboard with arrows for ARHD 6.5.x???
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
I don't think you can get one to be honest. HTC removed arrows long time ago I think.
[HTC Sensation] BIGMOH:
Thanks for your advice PaulGiz!

1. Didn't know it appeared twice :) but went back in and check surprisingly the second one was set at 3 already... phew!

2. i flashed the RCData file as well, thanks for linking it to the post!

I'll play with my phone through the day and report back on how its going so far no changes, after flashing.

Appreciate the help and advice! ;)

Found one for you :D

Sense 3.6 HTC IME keyboard with arrow (Variety style)
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
I just tested both Finer and Finest versions for ARHD non-XE and can't reproduce your problem with Winamp or the stock player. At the high end and low end of the range on the Finest volume mod, there is little difference between some of the levels, but lower is always lower and higher is always higher, even if just slightly.

Just saw your edit, I will try PowerAmp in a bit....Well, that was quick. PowerAmp (the trial version at least) definitely has an issue with several different levels using the Finest volume control mod. It completely dropped sound 4 times I think down the 30 step range, and went up/down/up/down several times within the range as well. I will add a note to the the main thread. :(
[HTC Sensation] HorstDCC:
wifi REM stages

Like eruan, I don't have that app installed yet I do have the WiFi-I-wont-sleep-like-you-tell-me-to issue.

So the cause is still out there to find. This being said it would not surprise me that some app actually sets parameters either upon installation or upon de-installation so that the phenomen no longer occurs.

Currently my eggs are in the wifi-fix.zip basket.

cheers
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
Unfortunately it did not help me, my WiFi turned on by itself overnight again.
[HTC Sensation] Masrawy:
Maybe these few precision can help you. I'm using ARHD 6.5.3 XE (always latest versions)

SebastianFM's kernel 1.30.4 (always latest one)

Extended Quick Settings 4G

Super APM

Custom battery (glowing)

Unkown Source As Default

HQ Camera Mod

I use PowerAmp Pro (latest version) with Beats enhencement (no SRS, no EQ, sometimes tones)

Try this: flash finest volume mod, using PowerAmp, put the volume at maximum, then lower it 4 times. You should hear nothing, then if you lower it again, the volume will be about 80%.

thank you

supporting the excellent support

When you want to maximize your support by whatever criteria, you have to be selective. Obviously in this community making an effort to contribute is a healthy selector, as well as reading or at least searching for an answer.

(I'm hoping I'm not on your ignore list so that you actually see this supportive post.

PS: Supportive of you and a few others including mister grumpy from München whose posts I like a lot.)

Thanks for the keyboard, I saw this one, I prefer the stock look if possible :(

thank you!
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
I am using the nonXE version and my installed mods are completely different, but the problem reproduced immediately with the Finest control mod and the PowerAmp trial version I got from the market. :( Update: Same issue with the Finer mod, worse at the high end, low end was ok.

I have updated the main thread.

[HTC Sensation] zhifong:
First time use ARHD, thanks Mike for all your efforts :-), just want to report some of my finding with 6.5.3 XE ROM - battery is very reliable than other ROMs, make around 10 calls yesterday and play some games still got about 50% left; some issue with bluetooth, have to turn it on and off few times to connect to my handset and have the sound (sometimes it appears connected but no sound); not sure if anyone has issue with dailymotion app? use another apps is fine when connected to wifi, but dailymotion sometimes will "pops up no internet connection, please try again", when press "OK", stock music player start playing songs, and phone start dialing the last call I made - very strange isn't it? Any comments or suggestions please? thanks guys
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
Mismatching did have a negative effect.

Best results for me were with DiSH=3 data file.

Build.prop as follows:

ro.ril.gprsclass=10
ro.ril.hsdpa.category=10
ro.ril.hsupa.category=6
ro.ril.hsxpa=3

It was also behaving like a GB ROM, sitting on 3G until data transfer started, then immediately moving up to 4G. That's what I used to see on GB ROMs as well.

Difference between hsxpa=3+DiSH=3 and hsxpa=2+DiSH=2 was slight but noticeable: Down and up (down first) sitting in my car in a parking lot: 2744/2197 (hsxpa=2+DiSH=2) 4045/1718 (hsxpa=3+DiSH=3)

In the back room of my shop 7190/3003 (hsxpa=2+DiSH=2) 8012/2001 (hsxpa=3+DiSH=3).

Both times =2 gave better upload, =3 gave better download.

As far as cell service, no difference between 2 RCData files, but both slightly better with gprs.class=10.

This applies to my area (Providence, RI) I didn't go any farther.

[HTC Sensation] stev32k:
I tired the 6.5.3 ROM with 3.32 firmware and again had the same Wi-Fi problems I've had with 6.5.1 and 6.5.2. I can make one Wi-Fi call then Wi-Fi will disconnect. After 45 seconds it reconnects, but normally I can't call out again until I reboot. When I revert back to ROM 3.6.13 there are no Wi-Fi problems.

I love everything else about the ROM, but 95% of my calls are via Wi-Fi and without that the phone is useless to me.

Does anyone know if there is a fix?
[HTC Sensation] orellius:
Thank you for pointing that out. I've mentioned that my device was doing that a few times in this thread and another thread and nobody has commented that it is usual behaviour, I thought something was wrong with it. I don't remember my stock Bell rom doing this prior to rooting/flashing, but I wasn't really looking either.
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
It's been said before, but I'll try to explain. There is no T-Mobile RUU for IceCreamSandwich ROMs. The only ICS stuff out there is Euro version, without WiFi Calling. The WiFi Calling applied to ICS is ported from Gingerbread. It is not 100% compatible.

Until T-Mobile releases an IceCreamSandwich RUU, we will not have an official WiFi Calling patch. That's just the way it is.

It shouldn't be long. If you rely on WiFi calling, you just have to wait.

Sorry!!!

[HTC Sensation] MuertoKo:
Mike any opinion on 1.30.4? Don't know if I should put it on my devices or it will totally kill my battery, 6.5.3 and 1.30.2 is working great with my battery life and don't want to ruin that :P

Thanks :)

Btw, anyone who can tell me working diferences between faux and sebastians kernels please? Have read all both posts and I'm quite like... aren't they totally like each other with their last versions? :S

[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
First: I'm running 1.30.4 (1.728Ghz version, no control app, just letting kernel work with OnDemand Governor). Battery life is actually better than ever for me.

Now the differences between Faux and Sebastian:

Sebastian's is basically a stock kernel, with CPU and GPU clocks modified. There are fixes for Touch screen, there are optimizations, you may run Zram compression if you're so inclined. The experience is basically stock but much smoother, faster and very stable. Excellent work, clean and thoughtful, resulting in a reliable transparent kernel.

Faux takes a different approach. He deconstructs, rethinks and puts together mad genius art. His kernels are very power efficient (it seems that's his main focus). They are far from stock and as such, occasionally behave in less than predictable ways. The latest for ICS works beautifully. It gets rid of MPdecision allowing both cores to interact more powerfully. The result is excellent battery, excellent speed but it runs a bit warmer than you'd expect. If you love to experiment and reap rewards, Faux's kernels are amazing. If you're a whiner and want commercial-grade product, look elsewhere.

I can't believe how lucky we are to have such brilliant, hard-working developers working on this platform (OK show-p, you too!!). :D

P.
[HTC Sensation] MuertoKo:
Will have to check that 1.30.4 then :P

Also about Faux123's kernel... battery life can make me try it :P Looks like a new experience and well, phone already heats when I play so... it doesn't really matter if battery is not affected :P

One more question if posible... I've read in this post some time ago about people having problems switching from Faux to Sebastian's kernel as some data from Faux wasn't replace by Sebastian's when re-flashing...

Is still that issue there? I mean, can I just switch between Sebastian and Faux by flashing them from 4ext without doing anything else or... more work needed? (Btw not scared about doing more work xD Just knowing it before trying xD)

Thanks for great answer!
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
Awesome descriptions, can't add any more to that or the sentiment expressed. :D

Hey, just noticed I was at 500 Thanks...and none to give presently but PaulGiz needs some more for his great work tracking down this radio issue. Come on people, step it up please and give Paul some thanks!!!
[HTC Sensation] lilpaul340:
I'm guessing its being uploaded? Great work Mike you truly are the best!!!
[HTC Sensation] joaquinf:
Just wanted to be the 500th thanks :D

I respect your point of view and i agree what you've said about faux's kernel, but i think that sebastian kernel is running far from stock. Isn't built from scratch but isn't basically a stock kernel, you've mentioned a couple of reasons to think that and i'm sure you've read his post in his thread talking about this.

For me this is the BEST kernel ever i've got running in my phone. No hard feelings :D Just my humble opinion
[HTC Sensation] iceshark:
Mike question, Is the TMOBILE radio update you have been posting since 6.3 or so the same file each time or do I need to update it each time you list it in red on bottom of each new 6.5 version like upcoming 6.5.4 vs, the one one that was listed below 6.5.3?
[HTC Sensation] madkai:
:rolleyes:
[HTC Sensation] stev32k:
Well thank you very much. That is the first I've heard of the reason for the problem. Had no idea what was going on and I've asked numerous times. At least I know what the problem is and can wait. Just wish that was pointed out in the documentation somewhere. It would have saved me a lot of gnashing of teeth and tearing of hair.
[HTC Sensation] joaquinf:
I've read the same issues but when switchin from bricked to sebastian's. Correct me if i'm wrong. AFAIK you need just to put the .zip in the sd card and flash it via recovery. Clean dalvik + cache just in case .. i do it every time :D
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
There are two different versions of the TMO update. PaulGiz has posted them here.

If you download the file from him, extract it, you will see folders named DisH2 and DisH3. They contain the two different updates. This info below comes from the radio.img files within the PG58IMG.zip files. If you use Notepad++ and open the radio.img files, you will see this:

QCT_UMTS_RADIO_VER=1

DisH=2

AGPSNVSetting=1

EnDTM=0

MSCMode=10

HSDPACat=10

HSUPACat=6

IMEISVN=1

GEA3=0

QCT_UMTS_RADIO_END=1

or you will see DisH=3 depending on the file you are looking at. To be very clear, DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE.

Whichever one you flash is a matter of choice, but it seems important to match the ro.ril.hspxa=? value in the build.prop file to the DisH value. That line appears twice in the file, edit both. So edit /system/build.prop first and change to either 2 or 3 to match the DisH value, then flash the corresponding PG58IMG.zip file with the rcdata.img file in it through bootloader.

1. Open ES file Explorer. Under the settings menu, make sure you have Root Explorer enabled and have Mount File System checked.

2. hit Favorites, /

3. Scroll down, tap system.

4. Tap in build.prop, open With ES Note Editor

5. you will see the first instance of ro.ril.hspxa on the first page generally. Change the value to either 2 or 3 to match whichever Dish file you intend to flash.

6. Scroll down in the build.prop file and look for the second instance of ro.ril.hspxa=x and change it to match whichever DisH file you intend to flash.

7. Tap the menu button and then Save. Hit back, back, back to exit and then reboot.

Note: Sometimes it seems as if a reboot after flashing did not effectively change between DisH2 and DisH3 and vice-versa. I pulled the battery for a few seconds and it worked the first time every time, but YMMV.

Please post back your results and location in the Sensation radio/RIL thread.. Thanks! :D

Looked on Search for a while and yep, that's why I couldn't find the post when looking for faux + sebastian ! It was bricked kernel :P My fault!

No possible problem or data loss by cleaning dalvik + cache isn't it? Supose it's on 4Ext Recovery, never tried to, but I will for sure! Thanks for all :)

Looking forward to install 6.5.4 and then flash 002 Faux (released 5 minutes ago xD) and 1.30.4 just to see how they go!
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
I remember reading a post late a couple nights ago that stated that flashing the bricked kernel overwrote a couple of files including thermald.conf and left one other file behind that caused problems for subsequent flashes of the Sebastian kernel, but can't remember which thread and couldn't find it with a search. :(

Fortunately, Google search has found it. h/t remcoros
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
Didn't mean to demean Seb's kernels, I'm using them myself as well. They are basically stock experience, but much, much better.

I was watching TopGear once and they were testing the Bugatti Veyron. When they panned through the interior I noticed that the door handle was identical to the one in my VW Jetta!! Probably out of the same bin. Now, a Veyron is not a Golf, Sebastian's kernel is not HTC.

So since I updated from 6.5.2 to 6.5.3 my battery is draining a lot faster when idle then before. Any suggestions?
[HTC Sensation] sjknight413:
Probably because the default clock speed has been upped by around 100mhz or so. use setcpu or something to underclock it if it is that bad!
