Ok guys can someone pa pa pa please post up a link to...

Faux 0.25r is stable, fast, and has good battery life.

Bricked is stable, slower (not by a lot), has good battery life and you dont have to worry about the camera bug.

(Either one of these kernels)

I'm having such a hard time finding it.... But it could be the 17 hour shift and still at work effecting my brain power... With a phone that is rebooting like crazy.... Anyways thanks in advance guys
[HTC Sensation] remus82:
I solved the rebooted by doing a full wipe and NOT flashing mods at the same time as flashing the kernel. Of course naked use of titanium backup before you do this. Hope it helps
[HTC Sensation] vstar21:
I got great battery and great performance on mine and my wife's phone. Same with the new version. No problems as of yet and great battery with both kernels:D.
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
Go to Sensation Android Development Forum and hit CTRL F and put in [Kernel]

Only 2 come up. 1 is Faux (HTC STOCK) one is Bricked (Says Bricked :P)

Hey does anyone have the beats audio boot animation zip saved from this rom? I forgot to make a copy before flashing over it. Just want it if I decide to ever go back to it.

[HTC Sensation] tony yayo:
Can anyone recommend a good radio for the Chicago area? I have become convinced after today that not getting a good signal is what kills my battery. I spent 12 hours at work today. First 6 hours was in an area where I'm SURE I get bad signal, battery drained faster and phone stayed awake longer. Next 6 hours was in an area where I know I get much better signal and when it was locked on to a green signal battery drain was almost non existent. I'm at 16 hours almost with medium-heavy usage. Variable being I must have crap for signal at home, switches from 3g to H and back and sometimes even locks on Edge. Either that or I'm doing something different I don't know about.

Also asked a question yesterday with no response. Anyone ever try to view a picture file and it asks you what gallery app you want to use and it gives me ELEVEN different options for Gallery (com.htc.album), anyone know why this is? Only one actually goes to the gallery, two of them FC every time and the rest do squat. Could I possibly have 11 galleries running? This would eat some major battery too, no?
[HTC Sensation] Dope Ex:
Oh yeah, sorry. It was too late for me. :-P

I meant: if I'm getting a message and write back in the same minute, then my message stands over the message my friend wrote me.

Do u understand?

Here is an example, how it looks like:

04:30 friend

Are you still sleeping?

12:01 me:

Thanks, fine.

12:01 friend:

How are you?

My message used to be under the message of my friend.

How can I fix this problem? :)

+ 1... I have the same problem with stock sms client. But not when using go sms. I'd like to know if there is something to do about that too... I like the stock sms app but this keeps me using go sms.

For me it happens if i answer pretty fast... It's kinda annoying to have to wait to answer and i forget it all the time :-P

[HTC Sensation] jotha:
I used go sms from the beginning, so can't say if it would happen here also. Seems like the standard client has a too small time-resolution, so if you happen to answer in the same minute, he just sorts the sms in whatever order, maybe alphabetical. In that case there is nothing much you can do about...
[HTC Sensation] Madeli:
Let's hope HTC fixes this then... ;-) Go sms is good but sometimes i just want to keep everything running stock. But i can live with it :-)

I was using this ROM. But 12 or so hours after flashing the phone would just start rebooting... First at random points and then it would start reboot looping. This happened with multiple ROMs so i ended up revirginizing my phone.

Does anyone know why my phone would do this?
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
As this is not specific to this ROM, I suggest you post this question ins "Sensation Q&A", because there is a much larger user-group that could have solutions for you ;).
[HTC Sensation] i900frenchaddict:
loool they disregard it soooo much that Show-p still gives a link to some of my (now old) Benchmark scores in his second post? :D

You know, devs start disregarding bench only when their ROM or kernel give bad results ^^

As I said, but it seems you didn't read my post till the end, you were talking about speed, I talked about bench because I can't see any difference in the speed of all the rest: UI, games, apps, can you seriously see a speed difference between both kernels?? Where? If you say "in Sense launcher and Rosie", I can agree, I always remove them.

For the rest, you'll have to tell me how and where is Faux a little faster than Bricked, since YOU disregard bench, tell me how? What's your reference for comparing speed, and finding Faux faster?

I suggest a little app called clocksync that syncs ur phones time with the time servers which fixes the split second time difference which fixes the sms time bug, u can set it to autosync every hour or so... You'll be shocked when u see how ur time keeps getting delayed a split second every few hours, so Yeh this app puts ur phone time back in order.

or u can use the sms fix app, but I find clock sync better since it fixes the sms bug and also gives u accurate time :)
[HTC Sensation] gibbs1984:
I've had to go back to 3.6.7, just found 3.6.8 too slow and the transitions were too jittery, especially using GO Launcher EX.

Anyone, not sure if this is a ROM problem but I went to the Market to download a paid app I had previously, it says "Purchased" but when I click the install button it shows an error saying it was declined because I haven't purchased the app, which I have, I've cleared the cache, not the data so far, still has the error.

Hey

Since 3.6.7 amd 3.6.8 both roms seem make the my sensation reboot at random times, majority seem to be as soon as you click send on a txt message. Others just randomly. I've got the clock set to the stock speed not 1.5 and its not getting hot or anything so its not that. Only seems to started happening in the last 2 roms

Anyone else having the issue?

sometimes it reboots, gets to the lock screen then reboots again. Soomtimes have to take the battery out to get it to boot back up. Getting really annoying now

Anyone else experiencing these issues?

I might try a diff rom see how they go

Ok. Other option is if you want to stick with faux kernel download 0.25r and flash that. If on bricked try 1.51r1v528.

Download and flash like ROM, that's all.

Don't forget to calibrate battery new after flashing (charge to 100% and delete battery stats) or flash when at 100% and delete battery stats.

I had the same random reboot. I found out the CRT mod was the cause. Can somebody else confirm this?
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
Well, I do not believe this. CRT-mod is an animation that ONLY does anything when the screen goes off. So how could it make a boot-loop when reaching the lockscreen. And it sure is not active when you send a sms.

Both ROMs are delivered with Kernels that had issues. And those reboots went away for most users when they changed to another Kernel like Faux 0.25r or Bricked 1.5r. This is much more logical than CRT-Mod.
[HTC Sensation] wackymix:
Thanks you very much.
[HTC Sensation] eruan:
I am not having anymore random reboot after removing the CRT mod. I tried a couple of times installing and removing it. Perhaps the CRT mod is not compatible with faux 0.2.6.
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
I have it also running and have no reboots. So, believe what you want :). Most important is, that your reboots are gone ;).
[HTC Sensation] blessingme:
Thank you all so much! I have finally get the Android Revolution HD-3.6.8 (Sense 3.0) on my HTC Sensation XE working!!

I am so so appreciative for your assistance! Thanks all.
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
While I couldn't possibly explain why this is so, CRT animation can do this, and I've seen it on other ROMs and kernels.

While chipsets do vary some, and can affect performance and stability, no developer has control over user installed mods and apps. This has to be part of the equation when trying to understand why some users are having very good experience with a specific ROM/kernel combo, while others don't.

Generally, a user won't so a clean install and run for a while, they flash and immediately load up all their favorite mods and monitors and apps. Then when there's an issue "it must be the kernel, or the ROM". It could be, but not always.

Hi,

I ran into a strange problem today.

Every time i switch on wifi hotspot, my WiFi connection automatically turns off and i cant use my device as portable WiFi Hotspot.

PS: I could see my device as portable WiFi Hotspot when i use 3g Data.

Is this an expected behavior or some known bug which i am not aware of? :confused:
[HTC Sensation] eruan:
What is the Rotation Animation that comes with the CRT? Any pics or video.
[HTC Sensation] huey aviator:
Hi,

I think that's normal because the Wifi Hotspot is meant to be your portable wifi hotspot under your 3g connection. Thus, your internet connection may be shared through your wifi. IMHO, Literally it doesnt mean that is your wifi bridge/router.

Enjoy this great ROM mate!
[HTC Sensation] Dope Ex:
That is the animation when you rotate your device, you probably known from the iPhone. ;)
[HTC Sensation] craigspc:
Jotha ,

I was just wondering whether you're still of the same opinion now that a bit of time has passed? I've tried both 4.1.8 & 3.6.8 as fresh installs, but I still find the transitions more jerky than 4.1.7 & 3.1.7.

I might try an older kernel to see if this makes a difference, but I must say that faux 0.26 has been very stable on my device.

Hi there!

I installed 4.1.8 some days ago and it really runs great. The only problem is the battery drain during use. I did a full wipe befor installing the rom, used the recommended radio, disabled all battery draining stuff (like 3G and location services) and did a battery calibration. The battery almost doesn't drain during the standby (Sync for GMail and Facebook is enabled), but as I'm going just to write some messages in whatsapp or check the train connections in the browser, the battery loses about 1-2% in a minute... The funny thing is, that during calls for example I have a very good battery life. I also can't point an application which could cause this (was looking at the threads for battery life problems). And no, my screen hasn't 100% brightness :).

Maybe someone encountered the same problem? Any advises?

Thanks in advance and keep up the excellent work!

[HTC Sensation] jotha:
No, you are not of course :p. Those OC-Apps are reading the frequencies by themselves on a low-level basis. But the "normal" system-utilities like elixir and so on are just reporting the "official" android readings which depend on the kernel filling those variables. Sorry for the unclear description. Faux himself described the corresponding library in the Kernel-Base as problematic and buggy in a post about a month ago here and said that's the reason why he doesn't support it.

The usual cure for lots of force close issues is to go into recovery and fix permissions.

[HTC Sensation] kboater:
ok, so im new to the sensation and I have not read all 3557 pages of this thread :)

I realize there are two versions, one based on sense 3.0 and one based on sense 3.5...

which do most of you think is smoother, more stable, best battery?

-actually, what is the difference between sense 3.0 and 3.5, I keep reading posts saying that most 3.0 sense roms are more stable then the 3.5 sense roms, but I dont see anything that actually says what the differance between 3.0 and 3.5 is?

Thanks,

getting ready to flash one of them, just not sure which one :)
[HTC Sensation] katiepea:
I mean as card will no longer mount
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Having used both a lot ,I can say that I like them both equally.

I have NO issues with either.

Both are smooth and responsive.

If I were you ,I would make a nandroid backup of your present setup,and flash 3.0 and see how it FEELS yourself.Then,try 3.5

It is the only way you will know for sure.

:)
[HTC Sensation] gewit:
There is quite some difference..

The 3.5 sense has more widgets,ithere is some RAM optimizations,nicer User interfaces,more customizations.But 3.5 is a test leak,so it might have bugs.If you are looking for performance,stability I recommend you too use 3.0 but not that 3.5 is that bad,I was on it for some time..

But 3.0 is just more smoother
[HTC Sensation] gewit:
Damn ;)

Try to super wipe,reflash,.personally didn't ever had problems with SD mounthing.

But if there was some bigger issue,reflash had almost always fix it.Which kernel do you use?
[HTC Sensation] kboater:
Malygru and Gewit,

thanks! gonna flash 3.0 now!
[HTC Sensation] katiepea:
I'm using bricked, everything was fine until I switched radio back to stock, just wondering if stock kernel may fix the SD issue
[HTC Sensation] gewit:
It could but than it couldn't.

Try to wipe delvik and cache first and see if SD mounts if not flash stock kernel..
[HTC Sensation] HorstDCC:
Obviously, this is entirely subjective.

1. Both are very good, fully stable and have quite good battery life.

2. As for smoothness: I can't tell the difference.

3. 3.6.8 is the sense 3.0 version and it seems/feels slightly faster but lacks the sense 3.5 improvements. For me those improvements come down to a few settings -most importantly the wifi never sleep- and the possibilty to use HTCnotes that can be synced with evernote. Because of that I prefer Sense 3.5 based roms.

4. The 4.1.8 version is the one I'm using now with the nosense script run. I still profit from what Sense offers as a framework and i'm not bothered by the Sense app's that I do not use nor the Sense launcher. This seems to slightly fasten the ROM even more and improves battery life (if you know what your doing).

The deciding factor in battery life is actually not the ROM. Obviously it plays a big part in it, but its the settings and the apps that make the biggest difference. This is a half truth since RADIO is the absolute king of causes for battery drainage.

The only real-life criterium for me for battery life is: can I get through the day without recharging. With both the ARHD 3.68 and 4.1.8 (nonsensed) I can get past the 24h mark without recharging.

This being said, until I ran into breaking error on the Senseay 2.1 ROM I had actualy decided to stick to that one since that ROM offered better battery life for me (my set of apps and tweaks).

The breaking error seems to be quite rare since nobody else reported it, so you might want to check out that ROM as well if -and only if- you decide to sail the Sense 3.5 path.

5. Support: the ARHD thread has a lot more traffic that the Senseay thread, but having to filter each message to see whether it concerns the Sense 3.0 versions or the Sense 3.5 versions results in overhead. And as for the level of helpfullness and to-the-point-ness both threads are about the same.

But your question was about the difference between ARHD Sense 3.0 and ARHD Sense 3.5, which simply comes down to the difference in both Sense versions and thus your options in applications that depend on them.

Basicaly Sense 3.0 is faster and more stable at this point in time.
