Use root explorer or another file explorer with root access (EF has also root access, but you have to activate it in its settings). Then mount system as r/w (also in file-explorer), open file and edit. Save again. Profit:)
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
2 x Reboot as well?

Don't you have to reboot twice to make the changes become effective? I am not sure why that is but I know I read it on this thread when I was searching for that some time ago.
[HTC Sensation] Dai323:
Bro, the screenshots in your signature look SICK. Which ROM are you on, and would you mind sharing the names of some of those widgets? :)
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
You have to reboot of course, I forgot that. Twice, I have never heard. But if it doesn't work the first time, just do it :D.

Also maybe the "cure-all" wiping cache and dalvik couldn't hurt. :p.

I don't usually play around with kernels other than those packaged with ARHD, but I've noted the battery drain you're referring to. I'd like to flash the faux123 0.2.4b2 but I can't find any links to said kernel in faux123's thread. In fact, I can't find links to the 0.2.3 either. Am I looking in the wrong place?
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Try THIS

:)
[HTC Sensation] Dai323:
Gotcha :) Sorry about that. PM sent.
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
No, you are looking in the right place. The link to the beta must be in the thread, not front page, but near the end, about 12 hours ago. I saw it this morning. Where the link to 0.23 is, I don't know, wouldn't use that one though.

I only use bricked, so can't really tell you where...:(

Edit: Malybru was quicker..... again! I write too slow...
[HTC Sensation] BriEE:
So, I'm getting about 1-2% drains every 2-3 mins while ON, is this normal?

Asleep it seems fine though.
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
Which ROM, which kernel, OC yes/no, how much? :)
[HTC Sensation] blackstang350:
No my regular WiFi have th same issue I'm radio 10.58 10.15
[HTC Sensation] BriEE:
Yeah that's another thing, I'm on a Sensation, and flashed the first page rom, it says on my about phone is 3.6 but the rom when I download says 4.1

I'm thinking 3.6 though since I don't have XE ?

Kernel is bricked 1.45, no OC, 1.2

[HTC Sensation] Maeffjus:
What shall I do, I used 4.1.5 on a 3.6.4 ROM - so now the statusbar closes each time Android boots - no chance to change that, so any idea how to repair this without reflashing my rom?

THX!
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Go to settings>about phone>software information and you will see

the android version(2.3.4 or 2.3.5)

Htc sense version(3.0 or 3.5)

Software number(3.6.4 or 4.1.5)

You will then see what ROM you have.

:)

You have mixed two very different bases.

The only way to clean up ,is to super wipe and re-install.

Otherwise you will have no end of problems.

Try flashing a 3.6.x EQS over it with wiping cache and Dalvik Cache. Should work. If not, it's back to step one :D.

---------- Post added at 03:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:49 PM ----------

Malybru, he meant that he flashed the 4.1 EQS on a 3.6 ROM. So it's not as bad as you think, lol

---------- Post added at 03:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:51 PM ----------

If it says 4.1 it is 4.1. There are 2 ROMs on page 1, 3.6.4 in first post, 4.1.5 in third post. Check in settings as malybru said and come back.

BTW "page" is relative on the forum, depending on which settings you use. It's better to use post-number as a reference. ;)
[HTC Sensation] droctii:
I'm a new Sensation user (after a G1, N1, MT3G Slide, MT4g). I installed ARHD 3.6.4 XE and I'm pretty please with it. I have a few questions that I did not find answers to in the thread.

1) My "Personalize" options in Settings does not work. Whenever I try to open it, it returns me to the home screen. I've wiped cache and done reinstalls...any other ideas?

2) Is there a way to add more options (like the brightness slider) to the Quick Settings pull down menu?

3) Is there an option (apart from ROM Manager or another app) to reboot into recovery or bootloader?

Apart from these things, it's a good ROM. Keep up the good work.
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
2) Look for an Extended Quick Settings mod for 3.6.x (floating in this thread, use search)

3) Look for an Advanced Power Menu mod for 3.6.x (There is one in the second post of the thread. Be sure to pick the one for your ROM)

battery consumption

I don't think that's right, if you're saying I can drain about 1% per minute or per 2 mins even, then if my math is correct, and it is, the phone drains 30% per hour while running?

So I can use my phone for 3 hours?

That doesn't sound right? I think the typical usage is 10mins per 1% in usage mode?
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
Of course it's not right :D. Nobody said it would be OK that way. But it was seen before. And as I still do not know which rom you use, I cannot give you advice what to do...
[HTC Sensation] BriEE:
Yeah I didn't know 3rd post has 4.1.5, I thought the first post was that.

So what are the differences anyways? 4.1.5 is sense 3.5?

Can you comment on the battery thing? So basically it really drains around 1% per 2 mins?
[HTC Sensation] Maeffjus:
Worked fine for me! Thanks a lot!

Hi,

first of all thanks for your work, your 4.1.5 Rom is my everyday beater and so far no problem with it...

Thank you :)

[HTC Sensation] riotman:
So here is my feedback

First of all thank you for your hard work and your great roms:)

i ran both 3.6.4 and 4.1.5. and sticked to 4.15 with bricked kernel.

Running on bricked kernel, EQS APM and V8 amaze camera, and i couldnt encounter any problems so far :) really great combination.. I will keep reporting if i find any bug. Everything is really fast and snappy... its feels like a totally new device now :) Thank you

I found one bug with 3.6.4 though : Pushing the power button when the camera's activated causes a wake up bug, and i had to pull out the camera in order to make the device run again, its reproducable here. This bug doesnt occur with 4.1.5.

The huge battery drain was already heavily discussed and i hope the drain is fixed now with bricked kernel.
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
The bug with the camera is widely known, but afaik it should not be there with bricked kernel.
[HTC Sensation] BriEE:
Do you have an answer for my usage drain?

Also when I reboot into recovery, it shows a different percentage, and when it goes back into the rom, the % changes as well again.:confused::confused::confused::confused::confused::confused:
[HTC Sensation] yungyeh:
May I ask how many % of battery life losing during that 7 hours in your pic?

Is your phone standby most of the time? Any UV or OC?

The jumping battery readings have i also experienced. Went away again by themselves, dunno why.
[HTC Sensation] tony yayo:
Well I usually can get 20 hours out of my battery using Juice Defender. First battery after flashing 3.6.4 was dead in six hours. Flashed Bricked and it got better, 12, maybe 14 hours. But there is still something draining somewhere. Not complaining, just reporting. Considering going back to 3.6.1

Mobile Network Data Connection

Hi,

Thanks for the great ROMs!

I am on ARHD 3.6.4, with the recommended radio. I have always used only wifi networks for internet purpose. Yesterday, for the first time, I tried data connection through my mobile network. I tried all the settings with regards to APNs, given to me by the network carrier - Zain Kuwait - but to no avail. Since I'm not on the original official stock ROM any more, do I need to set certain 'proxy' and/or 'port' number, in addition to the settings from the carrier, to enable net connection?

Any help will be much appreciated!

Mustafa

Edit: At times, it does connect to the mobile network, intermittently, but the internet is never available.
[HTC Sensation] BriEE:
Can you tell me how much it drains in 10mins when using the phone? Not gaming or heavy usage, just browsing in a browser.
[HTC Sensation] wallendiaz:
I go back to version 3.6.3 for the same reason and now I have no problems.
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
3.6.5 and 4.1.6 with new kernel will solve battery issues.
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
Something else interesting included?
[HTC Sensation] wallendiaz:
Good news bruh!
[HTC Sensation] tony yayo:
Just tested. 10 mins of browsing CNN and ESPN and watching a 2 min video clip, battery went from 92-84%. Usually would only go down 2-3%. It's the screen off drain that's been bad.
[HTC Sensation] BriEE:
Yeah that's like 8% battery for 10mins almost 1% per min!!

2-3% per mins is what I would expect.

So something is definitely wrong.
[HTC Sensation] Maeffjus:
Me also - it drains incredible fast - when I finished work 2hrs ago, I had arround 98% - now I got 67%.. and I did not use it a lot - maybe 10 min MP3 playback and 15 min display usage?

So currently I'm using Bricked Kernel - acutal version, befor I tried faux - but both are not satifying for me.

Bricked is at arround 100mA and faux at least 38...

Any suggestions to solve that?
[HTC Sensation] seferon33:
Just wait when other Rom will avalible my friend.
[HTC Sensation] abuserkadayf:
if they are faux kernel they won't... i stopped flashing new roms after 3.6.1 bcause since then it is has just become new kernel updates

very happy with 3.6.1 :)
[HTC Sensation] anlygi:
I installed bricked 1.45 yesterday and left work this afternoon with 70%, was low to mid 50's before. Wish this Anker battery I ordered off Amazon on Saturday would hurry up.

Looking forward to 4.1.6, loving the Sense 3.5 experience, glad I switched from 3.6.4.

About kernels...

Hi all

In my sig u can see what I have installed. Just for courious reasons I tried Bricked 1.4r1 O/C @1532 and it didn't work well. (forgive me, Mike... :(:):)). I was pretty laggy, not fluid at all. I have no other mods on.

I cleared the cache, as well as the dalvik cache of course, but after a couple of hours I went back to faux 0.2.3.3r, as this worked best for me so far.

And now everything works well again just as it should. Don't get me wrong, this is not to spit on the bricked kernel, no, it's just what I experienced. There are many users out there who are happier with bricked kernel.

I really guess that every device, even when it's called "sensation" is not equal at all. So I recommend to try what works best for you.

Will try now 0.2.4 and see how this works.

Greetz...
[HTC Sensation] badaboem:
Haii Mike1986,

Dayam bro,i luv your ROM.

I have a problem tho,and i cant find it in this thread or android forms.

I got my phone rooted with eng s-off.

I followed your advice by flashing the radio.

Followed the read me in the rar file, and followed by step by step. It shows that i successfully flashed the radio,but when i check it up in recovery,it still shows the same previous radio (10.14.90.35.02_2) instead of the one i flashed. (Radio_10.58.9035.00U_10.15.9035.02_2 )What am i doing wrong here? And if my radio isnt s-off then how do i achieve it. I can't find it anywhere :S

Thanks in advance
[HTC Sensation] Maeffjus:
Can I install 3.6.1 without reconfiguring everything? And where to download that?

What is the main difference between the actual one?

And last question, do I have to apply a kernel by hand after flashing or will it be installed while flashing?

[HTC Sensation] jotha:
All is fine :). Recovery for some strange reason always shows one digit lower. Go into settings and look in phone info inside android and you get the right version.

I use 3.6.4 for over a week now and I have to say that for me this is the worst version of 3.6.x so far, no insulting.

1. Camera freezes many times and phone stuck, need a restart.

2. Internet browser stuck after a while, looks like the data is freezing because the pages won't load.

3. Battery drains, I tried several kernels but no succes so far.

So I am looking forward to 3.6.5 ;-) and for the time being I will go back to 3.6.3

[HTC Sensation] Maeffjus:
What to backup exactly? I'm pretty sure not everything needs to be backed up - sorry for asking such stupid questions, but befor I used the HD2 on WinMobile...

And how to reapply that backup after flashing 3.6.1?

Thank You!
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
If you want to backup your personal applications use Titanium Backup. Then when you wipe and flash 3.6.1 you can reinstall apps and their data via Titanium Backup as well.
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
Haha, what he meant was: You should have made a backup with the recovery (a so called nandroid backup) before flashing from 3.6.1 to 3.6.whatever, so that you could go back to the old version without need to superwipe.

As you don't even had 3.6.1 on the phone you cannot have such a backup of course.

Normally you don't have to superwipe if you go from a rom to another one of the same base, so 3.6.1 to 3.6.3 is NO superwipe. But mike has said various times that you should ALWAYS superwipe if you go backwards.

Don't know why that is the case, but I would advise you to do it if the rom cook recommends it.
[HTC Sensation] Maeffjus:
A well, all you you have been mistaken about my crazy thoughts :D

I thought there is a way to backup the program-part and replacing the rom itself - without loosing anything, in the case what you have I don't need the backup - I can reinstall everything from the market and apk's.. but thanks anyway - I'n not so used to Android as I#ve been to windows mobile...
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
Everyone starts somewhere :)

Titanium Backup is the way to backup the program-part.

3.6.4
[HTC Sensation] i900frenchaddict:
didn't you find that 3.6.3 with bricked 1.4r1 (or 0.9.1, or all the test versions) was better than 3.6.4 with same kernel for battery life? For me, it was, especially when screen is ON

Strangely, Bricked test version from #500 are better for batter life when screen is ON for me...

And latest Faux123 (from his thread, not the included one) kernel seems good to me too

"All devices are made differently" as it was often said here I guess :D
[HTC Sensation] gibbs1984:
What's the best way to debug why my battery drain runs anywhere from 100mA to 700mA?

I don't particularly have bad battery life, although it could be better, I'm sure there's something running that shouldn't be, I don't really want to delete all my apps and install them one by one as it's taken me ages to install them all and set them up.

Running 3.6.4 with the Bricked 1.4r1 kernel.

Wake State Setting:

Wake Min = 384000

Wake Max = 1440000

Wake Gove = ondemand

Sleep State Settings

Sleep Min = 192000

Sleep Max = 384000

Sleep Gov = conservative

I painstakingly went through all my apps and turned off all the notifications, setting them to off or manual, so there shouldn't be anything else updating in the background.

I've been using this kernel for about 5 days now and although it lasts a day with average use (just!) the CurrentWidget suggests that the battery is running at a higher drop rate than what the battery actually drains...

Just can't understand why I can't get the mA down below 100mA very often with an average of between 200 - 250mA.
[HTC Sensation] TheEyes:
Okay, first off keep in mind that the Sensation doesn't play nice with battery monitor widgets; HTC never got the reporting right or something. I do know that you can get Battery Monitor Widget to report correctly if you go into the settings and enable "Ma corrections" in the Monitoring menu, but I don't know if CurrentWidget has a fix.
