Hi,

Can somebody tell me if I have to flash HTCAmaze_Camera_MODv3_Repacked over this rom (ARHD 4.1.3) or is it already included?
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
It's not included and it won't run flawlessly, cause it needs stock kernel to run. Most functions will work, but some crucial ones will give you FC.

I installed it and had to pull the battery after trying out certain functions. But that's described on the thread of that mod.
[HTC Sensation] cubitusclaudius:
Oh, thanks, I'll go and read there.

But camera gets already FC in this ROM when I choose "Rafale" for eg. (don't know how to translate. Google gives me "flurry")

Battery life poor

One's again ,

does any of you have a low battery range when wifi is in search mode with no signal in vicinity ?????

see my post :

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=18490822&postcount=25072

thanks for an answer :cool:
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
Wifi "on" will always search for an access point and therefore drain the battery. You have to use something like juicedefender or a tasker script to prevent that.

If you want to try the original rom you have to restore the nandroid backup that you hopefully have made before flashing the custom rom ;). If not, try the HTC page or the support page of your Service Provider.
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Switching off "Network Notification"in wifi settings will also cut down on some of the drain.

:)
[HTC Sensation] cramtebreg:
thanks for your answer,

but I see on other thread that the search could be changed by the kernel and in this view in the " search mode" the drain of battey can be adjusted to a real low drain mode.

for example on the original sensation 1.45 non XE, I was leaving the wifi even out of range a signal and battery life remain normal like almost 2 days with no specific use for sure.

so I am just wondering if this calibration for this specific internal wifi's mode could be modified as it was in the orignal setting ?

I know that the best way unticked the wifi to avoid this but normaly there no need to do it on the other versions.

:cool:
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
On my sensation "non XE" with stock rom the battery was much more drained when I left wifi on even when out of reach. Therefore I used juicedefender that switched off wifi, when out of reach.

If that behaviour can really be changed by the kernel developer (which sounds plausible), you should ask that question on the thread of the kernel developer faux maybe.

Mail App Crashing

Hi All

Anyone having a problem with the default mail app when using an Exchange server. When I open my work email and press and hold on a particular email the usual pop-up menu appears and I then choose "Move to" to move the email to another folder. At this point the mail app crashes with the following error pop-up widow:

Sorry!

The application Mail (process com.htc.android.mail) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.

Cannot move mail between folders at all. ONLY happens with my work Exchange email account and not with my personal email accounts.

Weird.
[HTC Sensation] yungyeh:
Oe thought of it, maybe you can check the battery in recovery. 4EXT recovery has this to see your battery life in recovery mode. That reading is always correct.

Another thought is that maybe you want to remove all the mods to see if that happens. I am using 3.6.2 and that battery % reading sometimes happens to me after a reboot and it will get to normal if I turn off power compleltely and restart. I heard from Mike saying it may be caused by UOT kitchen so I did remove it and it is somehow fixed by removing that UOT kitchen mods (such as battery circle).
[HTC Sensation] atticus182:
Good idea to use Juicedefender, I'm using an app that automatically turns off wifi and data connection overnight (between 12 and 6), but this isn't preserving wifi actually because it's on the charger then anyway. I'm gonna try Juicedefender!
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
I didn't have a problem of the reading, the battery really discharged on the charger. Of course I checked the reading outside my phone (I have more than one of them available).
[HTC Sensation] jahmezis45:
Although BMW works great on other phones it hasnt been reporting correctly with the sensation and ive been told its because of the sensation and not BMW. Sometimes while using BMW ill see drans of +1000 and im doing anything at all and you would think with BMW it showing that high ma that phone would be hot but its not. So i wouldnt worry about it

---------- Post added at 10:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:26 AM ----------

After installing this my phone started randomly resetting and then loading back up and then resetting again. I wiped everything and fix permissions that didnt help. Had to reinstall the rom
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
Well the last version of BMW has a special setting made for the sensation. You can select that in the settings. And the percentage readings are in sync with the reading in the status line and the reading when checked with *#*#info. I also think that the phone/battery is reporting strange things also to the other monitors, not only BMW. But that is not ROM specific, so we're getting OT ;).
[HTC Sensation] vvveith:
I use the stock charger on stock phone.

On stock phone with stock charger, never had any problems. Phone always charges to full, (green light), in about one hour and on the road using car charger, phone stays on 100 percent with bright display and streaming music through bluetooth. No problems, ever! Since I've had the phone, about one month now or a little longer. This would point to either the kernel or the rom itself. Peace, V;)

---------- Post added at 10:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:33 AM ----------

I use a straight stock phone and those button lights seem to always stay on, some say that when in a dark room they are suppose to behave this way, and they turn off in a bright room. To tell if there on or off in a bright room, I can't say, but it would be nice if they would turn off in a dark room when watching video or playing a game! But in stock, this is not the case. V:(

---------- Post added at 10:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:38 AM ----------

If you are indoors, reception can be difficult, I guess that's why they included the phone over WiFi program which works perfectly in stock as long as Tmous server does not crash or goes down for maintenence, which happens at least once a week, usually later in the evening hours. However, I don't find reception and worse or better than my HD2 basically the same, maybe one bar difference. However, the design of the antennas in the sensation rely heavily on the back cover, opening the phone often can cause the contacts that touch the back cover to become misaligned and make reception even worse. Poor design and opening the phone are two things that one should avoid as much as possible. Also if you hold the device firmly, you not only can block certain radios but actully deform the case temporarily because of the cheap aluminium frame on plastic. Best thing anyone can do is not open the phone often and if they do make sure the back cover is on tight and also check the contacts of the antennas to make sure the are not misaligned. IMO, V :)
[HTC Sensation] cramtebreg:
for the moment it will be "for me" the best way to avoid a 7 hours range max

But I was thinking on some other users which are not always runing on internet thread and who want to have a normal use of this beautifull custom Rom even is they missed to cancel the wifi by inadvertence .....

I am pretty sure that there is a possibility to manage the search mode in a "slow time search" like it is suppose to be done by HTC philosophy.

therefore it's a question for the big boss MIKE1986 ..... :o

From 3.5 to 3.6 do i need to Super wipe?
[HTC Sensation] xplod4202:
on the first page of the OP it said that you do.
[HTC Sensation] vvveith:
After much research about data connections.

I scoured all forums both here and outside of XDA about data connection. I even went as far as calling Tmous and HTC and asked them about what are the different settings and which one is the best to use. After many comparisons this is my conclusion. Using that pass code of star number star number 6496 nmber star mbr star, the setting you change in there will not stay, the phone will always return to whatever is set in Setting/Networks. After talking to Tmous they said that is where one should go to play with these settings! It should be on wdma/gsm auto. However, even after following their proceedures, that setting seems to have a mind of it's own and will revert back to GSM. Don't ask me why, I can't seem to make it stick. However, it does not seem to affect my reception of 4G or anything else for that matter, works fine and I'm able to stream music from Internet, while recieveing calls and surfing and texting. So, I think it all comes down to these two things: 1. Reception in your area and the right radio and ril. 2. Proper case placement and contact of antennas to the back shell. If you've pulled that battery excessively I would start here. Gsm/Wgma auto don't seem to make any difference here and don't seem to stick even when you change them from either place. Peace, V:rolleyes:

After Research into the Amaze.

I almost bought the Amaze and stopped midstream when I learned that it has no WiFi. I'm thinking back to me HD2 days so this may not be correct, but I seem to recall when trying various roms, when we had working WiFi the camara would have bugs and vice versa. I think why the Amaze has such a great working camara on the stock model is because of the lack of WiFi. The WiFi was replaced with a better and bigger hardware camara. So if you use your phone more for a camara than a communication device, get the Amaze, however, if you use your phone more for communication, be happy with the sensation! IMHO, V;)

Yes you have to. Its a different based rom so its mandatory

[HTC Sensation] adam1890:
Was your phone battery empty or almost empty?

- Was your phone cold or or hot when you took it back? (I mean before taking off battery)

I'll check what yungyeh said about voltage, because I got the same, but with a non-empty battery. I thought it was a SOD (screen of death), and the only way was to remove and put back battery. For me, I thought it was because I mixed up 3.6.2 rom with 3.6.1 data on recovery.

Anyhow I don't thing it is about voltage in my case. It always happens after a long moment in sleep (I mean screen shut down).

no its not getting hot and the battery had full capacity or cold its just turns off I have to take out the battery to make it work

[HTC Sensation] vvveith:
I was sharing some info to help people understand.

Jotha, I was stating that I think any mod devoloped for the Amaze camara would have flaws on the sensation simply because of the better hardware camara on the Amaze and giving the reason why it has better hardware camara, that's all, and if you would of read a few posts up, others had questions on the camara in the amaze and using it with this rom, I only used his for a starting point to quote from, as I usually do. Those that are interested can read the post, and correct the information if I've said something that is not true or explain how something works so we learn. It was a general statement about the camara mod from amaze and why you might have trouble running it on our sensations. Thank you, V
[HTC Sensation] yungyeh:
Usually you do a backup before applying any mod so you can reverse the mod by do a restore in recovery.

If you do not do a backup, you can still return to the original ARHD by flashing the rom from the first page again. Wipe cache before you flash. Every mod will be removed.
[HTC Sensation] jjrumph:
Like the clear status bar. But it wipes out other Uot mods. Like digital battery but when flash lose the status bar and eqs.so nice but not for me just yet.

I have been using 4.1.3 now with recommended radio and faux 0.2.2 beta 2 for several days and it seems that I cannot find more than 3 bars of service just about anywhere I go, and my download speed is ranging between 3500-4000kbps at 3 bars. On the off occasion I actually find 5 bars of service, my download speed sits at an even 10,000kbps. Now the ROM and kernel combination works great overall but would anyone know a way that I could improve my signal strength so my phone speed is faster? As I said, I already have the recommended radio which I checked and it appears to be the newest radio. Any ideas?
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
Was it better in the same places with stock rom/radio?
[HTC Sensation] eric1990:
I never used the stock ROM radio with the a custom ROM however, yes it was better but I did not want to flash it because there was a different recommended radio. If it would not do any harm I would flash it back possibly, however I am not familiar enough with radios to go against Mike's judgement on radios.
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
There are a lot of posts in this thread of ppl that have gotten better results with other than the recommended Radios. Radio Quality is much dependent on the place you are on this planet. Just try others, can't do any harm. Just be sure that you also flash the corresponding RIL to the used Radio. Unfortunately I haven't got really good results with any Radio, also not on stock Rom with stock Radio. So i went back to the recommended one. Saves me flashing a RIL.
[HTC Sensation] eric1990:
I haven't flashed a RIL before only a radio, I looked into it a little on flashing them but I found you cannot just package them into a PG58IMG.zip and update from bootloader. So how can you flash the RIL?
[HTC Sensation] xplod4202:
some times i wish for uninstall button myself, but then i thank GOD that i am backed up ;)

The EQS can be found around the thread, though unfortunately not in second post. You'd have to search for them. They are linked at least 10 times.

The thing with the less free RAM ist made by purpose. Mike has the opinion that used RAM is better than free RAM. Don't know if he's right but could well be. At least that's the philosophy behind that.

And I have always stated that I have a stock rom for comparison on a stock unrooted phone, so when someone post something about a charger not charging or screen with sleep of death after performing certain tasks, I can tell them that it's not the build because I know that mike uses stock base.

A few days on 3.6.2..

I had issues on 3.6.1 with my T-Mo Sensation randomly shutting down, especially after viewing a lot of videos (Youtube, DL movies to phone, etc.). It was especially annoying as I had to remove the battery to get my phone out of a boot loop.

So far on 3.6.2, I've played a couple of hours straight of video with no issues but I need to test more.
