[HTC Sensation] BIGMOH:
yup been using it since yesterday, no issues so far, slightly warmer than v005 b1 but definitely cooler than v004 FINAL

i'd flash it ;) oops hang on... i did :p

Enjoy!
[HTC Sensation] baste07:
yes you can, don't believe everything that the developer of bricked kernel about ARHD.
[HTC Sensation] eric1990:
I had tried that prior along with messing with the permissions and even reinstalling it several times all prior to posting.

I found the solution to my issue although the reason this fixed it is beyond my understanding.

The solution to that issue was simply replacing the RIL file and the radio. I am now using the following:

Same radio in the Firmware from 3.32.401.3 & 3.32.401.103 RUU but still using the 3.12.401.2/102 Firmware

Radio: 11.69.3504.00U_11.22.3504.07_M

HTC-RIL: 4.0.0013HMQ - h/t Omar302

I am curious. If anyone knows/understands why this would fix my problem please let me know so that I may understand.
[HTC Sensation] BioTecK:
A while ago I had the same problem and I believe someone else mentioned this as well. My Sensation was dead and I couldn't do anything with it. It was impossible to go to recovery and when I wanted to charge the battery the red led didn't turned on!

So what I did was I removed the battery, put it back in and let it charge for a while. After a couple of hours I tried to turn the phone on and it worked!

I still haven't any idea why this happened but perhaps you can try this as well?
[HTC Sensation] Trakkiggio:
No more updates about an official sense 4.0 beta leaked??
[HTC Sensation] krps13:
No I tried that but when I plug it into my computer and it pop up. It says driver needed "QHSUSB_DLOAD" So I googled it and its truly bricked but I didnt do anything wrong after updated the rom it was fine and next day, shut down by itself. So weird.
[HTC Sensation] interqd:
thx for the info guys

is it wise to use leedroid tweak and bricked kernels together then ?

any complication possible may be ?
[HTC Sensation] BioTecK:
Hmm.... I see.... :( I guess you have tried to see if your phone reacts when pushing the power button + volume up + volume down button?

In that doesn't work just head over to this thread "Sensation Unbricking Project". The first line of that thread says:

I haven't try this so can't tell if this is going to work for you but I guess you can try it out?
[HTC Sensation] kairi_zeroblade:
maybe CPU is Overclocked to much high?? :confused:

could possibly be a hardware related issue than on the software side..since ARHD has many followers worldwide and there were no claims that mike's ROM is making phone's BRICK..

on the end of one of the posts:

since he was on ARHD before ending up on this scenario..

well hopefully they can release THAT fix..
[HTC Sensation] BioTecK:
Sorry missed those notes... :(
[HTC Sensation] johnkristian:
Where can I find the latest stock KERNEL?

I need to test a theory....
[HTC Sensation] BioTecK:
It's included in the ROM... So if you flash the ROM again you can select the stock kernel.
[HTC Sensation] Charles Collins:
I just realised I don't get the windscreen wiper/clouds etc on the screen when I go onto the phone. I thought this was a Sense thing. Has it been removed or do I need to switch it on somewhere?
[HTC Sensation] chrisw99:
Press your menu key -> Personalise-> Display -> Lock Screen Style

Is it set to Weather?

Also, if you are using Leedroid Tweaks, check the "Skip unlock animation" setting.
[HTC Sensation] Charles Collins:
Thanks, that sorted it out.
[HTC Sensation] syncguru:
press and hold the widget on the homescreen and move to edit. select current location and tick on 'Show full screen animation'.

It work for me.. give it a try...
[HTC Sensation] johnkristian:
I don't want to reflash the rom, I just want the kernel.....
[HTC Sensation] BioTecK:
This is probably the easiest way to get the stock kernel as I haven't seen any download links for the stock kernel separately....

I guess you could also extract the stock kernel from the kernel folder of the latest ARHD ROM zip file and make a flashable zip out it. That is if you know how to make a flashable zip and this is something which I can't help you with as i don't know how to make a flashable zip file! :)
[HTC Sensation] johnkristian:
I have the kernel from 6.5 ... or something I think. I know they exist, but can't find them anymore :P But thnx.
[HTC Sensation] PuscH:
Depending on the kernel u r using right now u should reflash to go back to stock kernel, cause some kernels change some files (like faux renames thermald and mpdecision and also replaces init.post_boot.sh i think).
[HTC Sensation] TiN-MAN:
I had that same problem with a couple of the earlier versions of ARHD, but the problem went away with 6.6.1. Don't know what was causing it.
[HTC Sensation] Toxicology:
I attached it for you!

But as mentioned some posts above mine, to flash stock separately over (for example) Faux could cause problems, because some files are changed with Faux-Kernel. So be careful....and btw: while you keep searching the whole board and web for the Stockkernel you would have flashed the ROM allready 10 times or more :D
[HTC Sensation] john_matrix:
Hi,

What is the new black keyboard in 6.6.2 release?

Stock Sense4?
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

The only thing you will lose if you re-flash the ROM,is mods and add-ons.

You will not lose data,settings or apps.

This is the best/safest way to get stock kernel...

:)
[HTC Sensation] Charles Collins:
Now that is what I was really looking for. But of a tricky one to find, don't you think? :-)
[HTC Sensation] BioTecK:
Black keyboard in 6.6.2 release? :confused:

Do you by any chance mean the Sense 4 replica keyboard for Sense 3.6 based roms?
[HTC Sensation] johnkristian:
Thnx!!!!!!!!!!! :)

Flashing from bricked to stock and back to bricked ... is the plan. Preferably without having to re-flash addons.

I didn't think about some kernels changes som files ... hm. Maybe I have to reflash rom anyway.
[HTC Sensation] chrisw99:
Have you got Leedroid Tweaks 4 installed by any chance?

It replaces the stock grey keyboard with this new black one.

I'm finding that with some keys in different positions on the screen to what I have grown accustomed to (space and carriage return), I am struggling to type

I've been told there is a leedroid tweak to turn off the arrows that have appeared on they keyboard, which may make the position back similar to what it was before.

---------- Post added at 11:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:42 AM ----------

You can also format /boot from the recovery to wipe out the kernel partition before flashing a new one.
[HTC Sensation] mcwiklin:
Hey folks.

I've got strange situation. I've removed ome sense widgets with my System App Remover. Then I've reinstalled ARHD, but widget are not showing in widget list. System App Remover shows them on installed system apps.
[HTC Sensation] nkojic:
who can explain this: today my phone was on 25% of battery, and my wirless on my phone was on. I repeat the speedtest this morning again while phone was on 25% with wirless on. And everything works normall. Speedtest shows 4,03Mbps. A repeted the test 10 times and always 4,02-4,03 the download results. Then i put my phone in my charger and repeat the test number 11. And then the download speed was again very very bad 0,56Mbps. I tried test number 12 with phone without charger but the test was agin very bad. Then i switched off wirlless on my phone and start again. the battery is on 27%. I swithed on wirless again and repeted 5 test and again everything is normal. On the 6 test i use my charger and the speed is again bad. Dont know why is this happening? Maybe is because my wirless on my phone to strong or flashing ics ota update make this problem? Can you give me some advice?
[HTC Sensation] Dr.dre:
Just select clear data in settings -> Apps -> HTC Sense(the launcher app not the Sense account app) and let the launcher reload!
[HTC Sensation] mh7:
Can i use Xe-Rom on normal sensation mobile to get Beats audio feature

[HTC Sensation] baste07:
yes you can flash XE rom on non XE sensation
[HTC Sensation] elgar:
Hello, trying to solve high power consumption. Have been searching this forum, and still wonder: is there an app that would measure the right mA and V? From what I've understood currentwidget doesn't show correct figures (can't get it down to 0mA while charging, stuck on 12mA). Battery monitor widget shows 100mA (I set it up for Sensation). But they both show that the voltage is 4.197V (should be 4.204V).

My question is: should I keep trying charging (it's been there for several hours with green light on), or it will never work because the Sensation is terrible with reading battery stats?
[HTC Sensation] Grem135:
LOL if your phone is on then it will not read 0mA. It is always...even when asleep using some power. As for the voltage you are complaining about 7/1000th (0.007) of a volt? I wish I had a meter that could be that accurate!!!
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
I stopped using all battery and current monitoring apps when I realized they were a part of the problem and not part of a solution. Only actual usage time matters. Can you use it throughout the whole day with "normal" (for you!) usage patterns?

Once it hits the green light, my understanding is that it charges for a short time longer, then the charge circuit drops out, so there is no point to keep charging. This is to protect the battery from overcharging damage. Similarly, the phone powers itself off before the battery is really completely empty. Either of these conditions can shorten your overall battery lifespan.

If you have something draining your battery over time, it is likely to be an app keeping the phone awake so it doesn't go into deep sleep mode.

Connect the USB cable to the phone and PC and run this command:

adb shell dumpsys alarm > AlarmDump.txt

Then have a look at the file, towards the bottom you get Stats. In here is the breakdown of what's causing the device to wake up. (h/t catnap)
[HTC Sensation] elgar:
I am just following the guide that's suggested in the first posts of this forum. It really worked with my former HD2, and I did get 0mA when charging.
[HTC Sensation] nkojic:
Mike are you alive ? :D
[HTC Sensation] Grem135:
I really need to install Linux its been 7-8 years since I played with it and 15 years since I used DOS... can't remember enough dos commands to make a simple batch file now :eek:

I must be getting old... noooooooooooooooo
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
The screen may be the single biggest drawer of power, so I usually suggest disabling auto-brightness and setting the brightness to a level you can work with, for me around 25% works. I also edit my build.prop and change the supplicant timer from 120 to 900 to prevent WiFi from pinging my remembered networks as often, turn off open network notification, and run the mobile network on 3G instead of 4G since it uses less power.

Some other things to do include turning off pocket mode under the sounds settings (turns off proximity detector) and disable vibrate feedback.
[HTC Sensation] baste07:
Excited?
[HTC Sensation] Grem135:
I guess that would depend on the location the measurement is taken then. Any phone that is on is using power of course.

But then as mf2112 says, apps are mostly useless for this as the accuracy (or lack of) varies from app to app and phone to phone :confused:
[HTC Sensation] genericfrank:

Feeling nervous.

Mike is so quiet.

F5 finger hurts:D

You could subscribe to his twitter feed and not have to hit F5 again. You will be notified as soon as he posts it so you can be in the first mad rush of slow download speeds as the servers get hammered. :D
[HTC Sensation] mizerok:
Hey guys, i'm new in sensation.. Could you tell me please, after installing 3.3x base, am i need to format all partitions in recovery to install custom rom like sense 4.

I mean what is the difference between format all partitions and SuperWipe script?
[HTC Sensation] Grem135:
Read the Guide in my signature for nice step by step directions :)

We dont have sense 4....yet
[HTC Sensation] mizerok:
I have already read many guides) I mean we have sense 4 custom ports, can i install it after installing SuperWipe install script or i need to format all partitions like on the Desire S ?
[HTC Sensation] baste07:
What did the guides you read say?
[HTC Sensation] jesus_c:
I did next

0. was Stock GB ROM with S-OFF, SuperCID, 4EXT and Root

1. install base

2. superwipe

3. Install ROM

[HTC Sensation] huy_lonewolf:
People are leaving the old Sensation for the new One X. I am starting to feel sad...
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
You can't pull or change the battery in the One X. That means if your phone is not responsive and no combination of button pushes and swearing works, your SOL.

If your battery starts acting up, you need a new phone or you can send it in for "repair" which means they send you somebody else's broken phone in exchange.

They're still charging a premium, I don't know why cutting corners is OK.

Just sayin' :eek:

[HTC Sensation] UnixSlayer:
IMHO these sealed phones are the death call for these new innovations. Same thing with the Motorola RAZR Maxx.... Seems these companies wish to emulate the IPhone. As far as I'm concerned, another train wreck waiting to happen. What ever happen to the days you could do upgrades to your phone. Same thing happened with desktops. They are taking the fun out of it.
[HTC Sensation] BioTecK:

[HTC Sensation] Leemur89:
Haha, that is quite true and sadly it is happening everywhere. Especially during the iPhone Era.. i mean, you hand in your old phone for repair, they claim to give you a totally new phone, only for you to find out that something else is broken. heh

However old our devices are, for me as long as they keep coming out with updates for custom ROM and as long as dev support is still blemishing i don't really mind. I mean, sure everyone wants the next best thing but i am keeping loyal to my xe :-D
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
Thanks! :D Congrats on the new title, you deserve it!

Totally agree. I am not planning on spending anything for a sealed unit I can't change the battery if it goes bad or insert my own SD or XD card into. Unfortunately it appears that they are trying hard to take that option away. :(
[HTC Sensation] aben2amu:
So, what are the choices for a new phone these days?

I truly find the One Series a big problem when it comes to battery and no SD. I truly do not want to go back to Samsung.
[HTC Sensation] BioTecK:
Yep... I think I'll do the same and stick to my Sensation with ARHD + Beats Audio and Faux's Kernel!:D

Another valid point! ;)

Hmmm...Not much at this moment I would say... You're always left with 3 brands: HTC, Samsung or iPhone. And if I look at my self: I really hate iPhones and I don't like Samsung's Touch Wiz so it'll be... yes.. HTC! :D

And at this moment it's either Sensation or One X... And due to the points above you're left with only one option: Sensation! ;)
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
Time to bring back the potato phone!!!

Quadcore, pure linux, folding screen!!!

[HTC Sensation] jjrumph:
Plus I think the new HTC uses a mini Sim card. So you can't swap Sim to another phone that uses regular Sim. I bounce between three phones and wouldn't be able to do that. No thx.
[HTC Sensation] Leemur89:
I mean no offense to any of the new HTC products. I mean, they are really quality quality products in terms of build quality, display, etc. But i just feel that in terms of originality, it can't beat the sensation/ sensation xe.. I mean, how many other phones out their are made of unibody aluminum, non removable battery, no micro sd card.. I mean, what's the purpose of having phones if you can't customize it in a way that fits you best.
[HTC Sensation] aben2amu:
Not only that, imagine if you get to brick the One X, it´ll be a very very expensive paperweight.

[HTC Sensation] McLongDong:
I'm having a difficult time with mobile signal. I have T-MO US 4G but at best, it's showing 3 bars with 3G. I tried the original patch from ARHD and of course the two DisHes: DisH1 and DisH2 from this thread [RADIO][RIL][Mar 30 2012] Sensation Radio/RIL files. No Luck. My signal strength is around -95 dBm, which is extremely low. I know the higher (the closer to 0) the better. Is there any other fix anyone recommend me trying?

I have seen a few references that flashing from 6.5.5 to 6.6.0 was ok (the original release notes suggested it was), but the release notes now say there is no need to wipe if flashing from 6.6.x. Anyway, I have successfully flashed from 6.5.5 to 6.6.2 with no ill-effects so far (although full sets of backups, just in case). YMMV, of course, but it saves a bit of time - all done in about 15 minutes.
[HTC Sensation] dorianborovina:
It's same base,so there should not be any problems :)
[HTC Sensation] ximocko:
Seems like Mike is so much busy with ONE X, I'm so jealous because there are every new ROM in average 03 days there :((

Does the Advanced Power Menu / Wake on VolKey F work on 6.6.2?

The wake on volume works, and when I select Restart I get a second menu with bootloader, recovery, etc,etc, however when I select power off, the phone powers off...Shouldn't there be a hibernate option/additional options??
[HTC Sensation] baste07:

Can you re-flash the ROM, boot, open root explorer and go to /system and open init.rc file. Navigate to the very end and remove:

service post-boot /system/bin/sh /system/etc/init.post_boot.sh

user root

oneshot

Save the file, reboot. Remove init.post_boot.sh file from kernel .zip file and flash it.
