I new that I would get such childish replies and that the point of my post would get lost.

I already said that I totally respect the effort and time Mike and the rest of the devs put of these roms.

As for Cyanogen (somebody mentioned about him), I think it's a totally different/not comparable thing, since he (and his team) is doing actual coding (in Java that is, with version tracking, compiling, etc).

The code of the HTC roms is 100% HTC (since it is not opensource anyway).

That's why comments like "this rom is much speedier/responsive, thanks Mike" make no sense, since the actual coding parts is all done by HTC. I am sure there are speed improvements due to settings optimization/kernel updates/etc , but they are not actually coding/development.

I am just saying all this, because I never saw anyone say "Nice work, HTC!"

I think Mike himself knows what I mean and also understands that I mean no offense to his work.

Just want to put things right; again, no offense intended.
[HTC Sensation] xirokx:
Well I cannot even get into recovery...

I tried pressing vol down and power and nothing, I have held it down for close to 1 min.

Why do you think it will not even go into recovery? How can I fix this first?

Thanks for your continued help

Firmware Probs.

Hi

OK followed the guide as follows:-

Copy the PG58IMG.zip file to the root of the sdcard. Root of the sd card mean that you can't put the file inside any folder. Also, you can't rename the file. Please keep the PG58IMG otherwise the bootloader won't recognize it.

Copy the super wipe and 6.3.0 ROM zip files to the sdcard

Power off your phone or remove the batt and put it back again.

Hold volume-down + power button to boot into the bootloader

Wait for the firmware package to be found and confirm to update as prompted

Once it completed successfully and prompted you to reboot, pull the battery out.

Trouble is when I boot phone it attempts to install firmware but says something like "NO Image..." ive tried booting using a different sd card but I get the same error.

I notice that some else has had this problem but the advice he got was to read the guide, that is what I have done.

Help!

No, not because of Quadrant results, of course, but because of the not-so-smooth graphics that I mentioned. Doesn't really affect daily use, but hey, in the end we're all flash junkies and we do not always act rationally ;)

As for the kernel, your first post says kernel is UV'd, CPU up to 1.83 GHz and controlled by O/C daemon, so I assumed it was O/C'd. So replacing it with itself was not very wise then. Still, why the scores got worse is beyond me. :confused:
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
OC for stock kernel should be ready today! :D
[HTC Sensation] tinker2000:
can you offer some explanation as to why the rom is smooth yet the quadrant scores vary so wildly? I fi nd it odd that the scores are so low, even with cf benchmark. an explanation from a rom guru may help. cheers
[HTC Sensation] madindehead:
Seriously, some people need to learn that benchmarks aren't the be all and end all of Android. And ESPECIALLY not Quadrant on a dual core device.

Seriously. If graphics are an issue, try using Chainfire3D. Might improve things a bit.

But honestly, that is the worst reason to go back to stock ever. A ROM that is noticeably smoother, and yet has lower benchmarks is someone worse than one that has UI lag? Some people make no sense. Really, I despair sometimes.

The scores got worse, because Quadrant is buggy as hell for dual core devices. That's why! It's not a very accurate representation.
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
i don't know the mechanism of those **** benchmarks (I was never even interested :D) so I can't really explain. It seems that some of my tweaks improves overall ROM performance but have negative effect on the benchmarks. No idea why :confused: And I don't care ;) I wont be trying to increase quadrant scores in a cost of stability and UI smoothness.

[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
1.1.8 has stock kernel without OC and UV because all custom kernels are more less broken because made out of broken source code. You can flash RCMix 2.3 kernel or LeeDroid 1.4 kernel and do some testing.
[HTC Sensation] neverFollow:
I was just trying to say that the ROM "was not noticeably smoother" to my perception, at some point graphics and scrolling was laggy and so I decided to go back to stock. No need to bring yourself to despair ;)

Thanks for the heads up.

[HTC Sensation] madindehead:
I despair more about that fact that you and several other people seem to care a lot more about what a synthetic benchmark says about a ROM, rather than real world performance.

At the start of the Desire HD coming out, no one cared about benchmark scores. Then slowly it got worse and worse. And with the Sensation, every second post almost is about benchmark scores, and why do they get worse or whatever. A benchmark score is simply something to enhance your epeen. Nothing else!

Yep. I don't know what kicks they will get for numbers. Are they willing to proof, how good decision they make with phone purchase? I can't mind this. Will these numbers make their life better?

Your system can still be buggy hell with good benchmark scores. I prefer to ban every user, who talk there something about connection with this ROM and benchmark scores.

Mike, I also recommend to remove quadrant scores screenshot from Sensation banner. It could provocate peoples to talk about them. :)

Thanks,

Tried a different sd card but still no joy.

I have gone through the recommended supercid instructions and it repoerted that it was succesful and my cid is 11111111, but when I run the "CID Getter" app it reports that my CID cid VODP001 as it was before I ran supercid?
[HTC Sensation] joaquinf:
That is normal. If you get the cid var through an app or terminal emulator it'll report the original device CID ... the truth is what fastboot says.

Double check it in fastboot, if you are trully superCID'd download any 3.30 firmware from kohr-ah's thread and try flashing it via bootloader

EDIT: what ROM are you coming from?

Lotus Traveler

Hi mike1986,

I'm a fan of your roms and that’s why am asking your help regarding this "supposed" bug of HTC Roms.

Do you have any idea why Lotus Traveler is not working on Android 4.0.3 for HTC phones?

Let me explain, first I thought that should be a compatible issue as someone mentioned before and then I updated a Galaxy S with Android 4.0.3 and then installed Lotus Traveler successfully. (Every Lotus Traveler functionalities are working correctly)

With the same version of Lotus Traveler client (connected to the same server), I tried to install on HTC - Android 4.0.3 (Revolution HD 4.0.3 - 6.3.0 and all the other older ones) and the results are the same. After installing and activating Device Administrator policy, got an error saying "Lotus traveler stopped working".

Facts :

Lotus Traveler on Samsung Galaxy with Android 4.0.3 - Works

Lotus traveler on HTC Sensation with Android 4.0.3 - Doesn't Work

This happens with all ICS Roms posted on Sensation Android Development section

Thanks in Advance
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
This can be cause by some HTC Sense components. Have you tried running it on some Sensation AOSP ROM?
[HTC Sensation] xam4:
Thank you! :)
[HTC Sensation] spock:
Hi Mike1986,

No, I didn't. (I love HTC Sense)

I suppose that in AOSP Roms, traveler it will work without problems.... :(

Can you please have a look if this rom has something in HTC Sense regarding Device Adminstrators policy ?

Thanks

I have to say that once the SebastianFM Overclocked kernel 3.0.16 v1.10 settled in with SetCPU App set at 1512 battery life its pretty amazing...
[HTC Sensation] i900frenchaddict:
So Mike1986, as you seem to read the thread today (I know you're developping other ROMS for other devices, I guess your days have 25 hours or more), I ask you the question:

is the multitouch bug we're facing something that matches your developer skills, or other devs around here, something you/other dev. may solve if you have time to investigate?

or is it a bug that is above your skills, something HTC implemented too deeply into the code?

A clear answer would be great, I mean, I just can't do with that bug, I'm still involved in Fpse project, and can't do any test, nothing good, with such a brocken multitouch.

If you say "NO", as I think HTC will not fix it either in the official RUU, I'll have to sell my Sensation to go for something else (Samsung)

And since ARHD 6.X.X greatly improved 3D rendering and GPU use, I feel sad about this new bug that ruined the whole thing for me

Thanks in advance if you read my post and take time to answer.

[HTC Sensation] VictorNYC:
Was the phone SuperCID ? Someone please correct me if I’m wrong but that might be the reason why the recommended radio its not being flashed along with the ROM so you could:

1) SuperCID and that would allow you to install any rom from anywhere (Asia,America,EU,etc,etc) OR

2) flash the new firmware HTC RUU 3.30.401.1 CL291042 as it doesn’t require for you to be SuperCID and flash new 6.3.0 with ICS if I’m not mistaking UK users here have reported that the included new radio seems to work well and that might be an even faster solution..

besides 3.6.xx series its in the process of being discontinued ..There are a few greatly detailed guides to walk you thru the process in the link i had previously posted and its about a 15 minutes process..

Here is an excellent guide by joaquinf in how to flash it; http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=21989107

But just to be sure ! You get have no connection to the network right ?

no phone no internet no nothing ? but the phone boots up fine ? If it is just phone calls you can’t make but EVERYTHING also works it might be a completely different issue altogether ..Also check if your wifi works and report back please..
[HTC Sensation] xirokx:
Thanks for your reply

Im not entirely sure

Thats right, no network connection, no internet, no phone,

The wifi works I have tested it and it does work.

So what do you recommend?

I had a look at that guide and it appears the data is scattered all over, is there an easier step by step guide I could try? Would it be possible for you to copy n paste it in here?

Thank you so much for your time...

Sweet.

Flashed firmware.

Superwiped

flashed rom

restored apk+data

restored android home, and other things (but not system settings)

Haven't used it much yet, but it's smooth and fast.

My problem has been that the first day or so the rom has been fast as hell, but has been bogging down over the next couple of days. Time will show.

Yes, using Witopia L2TP. Works great, however ICS forces you to use a lockscreen password to even set it up. And you have to select it each time you turn on WIFI which is a pain if you want it on all the time.

OK,

Took out battery and restarted 4 times until finally prompted update.

The Advanced Power Menu allows you to reboot directly into the bootloader or into recovery. There's sometimes a bunch of other stuff there, too, like toggles for airplane mode, sound profiles and such.

Extended Quick Settings gives you more toggles in your quick settings tab than are normally there.

I'm using LeeDroid Tweaks Lite V4 and I have no real complaints. I get a Sense FC whenever I reboot my phone but after that, it's smooth sailing. Also, someone in that thread has an updated version of the tweaks specifically for 3.30-based ROMS but I don't really have a reason to try that version.

other that these 2, sense sometimes crashes but its not a big deal since it happens seldomly and recovers quite fast.
