Appreciate the quick update, but why even mention it until it is ready to download. Every other dev\chef waits until the ROM is uploaded and ready to download until announcing it, yet sometimes you announce several DAYS before providing a link.

All due respect, Its quite annoying .....and it seems other devs are being left in the cold as you upload, while they wait for "someone" to share the RUU.

I know you like buzz but can you

please

resist from updating change logs,teasing "uploading now", etc until the ROM is ready for release (meaning available to download).
[HTC Sensation] dansharpy:
Once this is uploaded and flashed ive made a thread for Sense 3.6 changes/bugs etc. I think it would be better to put anything sense related in there to keep this thread tidier!

Find the Sense 3.6 thread HERE :)
[HTC Sensation] cihanleanne:
how do you know have u Got the rom? if so are all RB,s FC,s BUGS gone?

cheers c
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Yes, it will.

[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
No offense, but Mike has always done it this way. Sorry some people don't like it, but once one knows what to expect one can deal with it.

Hes doing you a favor, if you dont like how he did it...then make your own rom.

I'll just wait for the sensation xe update with sense 3.6. THANKS GUYS!
[HTC Sensation] lightninbug:
Mad props (not build.props) to the person keeping this thread clean!
[HTC Sensation] k0zmic:
I'm tempted to try it but will probably wait to see what specific fixes there are.
[HTC Sensation] -juanito-:
So Sense 3.6 doesn't have new features ??
[HTC Sensation] loni90:
im guessing no; just renamed it to what will be the new sense on android 4.0

i think its the same as on 6.0.3 but just renamed it.. there is a difference between 3.5 and sense on 4.0.3 - so they had to rename it..

(me speculating)
[HTC Sensation] mortenna:
Mike: Firmware from 3.24.401.1 RUU on 6.1.0??
[HTC Sensation] Nekromantik:
Why is it called 3.6 if there are no visual changes?

It shud just be sense 3.5 with a higher build number and not a change to sense version as all Sense versions have changes between them.
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
correct

Need to flash that
[HTC Sensation] joaquinf:
it is posted in the corresponding fw thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1412618
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
Think of it this way

THere was Windows 98 and then soon after came Windows 98SE

Windows 98SE still looked like Windows 98 but it fixed all the crap Win 98 had wrong with it
[HTC Sensation] loni90:
but there are some visual changes from gingerbreads 3.5 to ice cream sandwich...not to mention the bar down at the bottum... is just some small changes...therefore only going from 3.5 to 3.6
[HTC Sensation] danilo081:
@ Mike

Please take look what i just found out

[discovery] maximum of first 200 saved wifi networks in wpa_supplicant.conf is shown

I have strange issue described in that topic and found conclusion. Just to be aware of maybe another ICS bug.

Cheers
[HTC Sensation] Pard0ned:
I got a bit too excited and flashed the newest firmware already - now my ROM won't boot, but I'm gonna just turn the phone off until 6.1.0 has been released. Can't be bothered to flash the old firmware again. lol

:cool: :D
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
Yeah, I need to add warrning there :)

Make love, not war! :)
[HTC Sensation] dellybelly:
Did the same :) Even though flashing back isn't really difficult; but ill give it till happy hour b4 thats necessary :)
[HTC Sensation] VictorNYC:
Thanks ! Ill try it that way ! :)
[HTC Sensation] recondo1202:
Did that a couple of times but no luck...thanks though :-)
[HTC Sensation] spdrosin:
Yeap. Me either. I just can't flash a regular sensation rom on my XE.
[HTC Sensation] aNYthing24:
Is the new firmware not backwards compatible? I'm stuck in a bootloop right now.
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
Correct, it's not.
[HTC Sensation] Pard0ned:
Nope doesn't appear to be. Just turn the phone off until you can download the new rom, or flash the old firmware back again.

I'm just leaving the phone be until the rom's updated. :D
[HTC Sensation] loni90:
have you removed the PG58IMG.zip file from sd? easily forgotten...
[HTC Sensation] aNYthing24:
Haha yes, I have.

Thanks Mike for confirming.
[HTC Sensation] zimphishmonger:
This question is asked so many times because there is TOO many useless posts cluttering the useful info, mainly due to his release procedure...such as the firmware is not backwards compatible. It inevitable for every release that a flood of useless posts will occur when you "tease" as Mike does.

Im not compaining about the ROM, Im saying hes the only one that "teases" releases DAYS before they are available. EVERY other dev eventually gets access, yet they arent advertising "new ROM available now" as is here. Just saying, it will cause a LOT less issues and headache (such as the bunch of people that are not stuck w/o boot because they have a firmware without a rom :cool: )

Let me be clear, Im quite appreciative of Mike for sharing, but all Im asking is to be more legit with release and announce when they are ready, as most every other developer does. No point announcing when there is nothing to download (except a firmware update that cannot boot on any ROM except the one not released yet). Essentially is a publicity stunt until it is released..... aka "I got it first, look at me". Not the best attitude IMHO

Just because he's always done it this way doesnt mean its right or proper. Mike complains about his threads not getting 5 stars all the time, on twitter, on the threads.......possibly because stunts such as announcing before release. If he wants to please the masses, he probably shouldnt tease as he does.

Also, it cause this thread to become FILLED with useless "cant wait", "so excited", "is it uploaded yet" comments that you cant even navigate it anymore. It would be easier on everyone visiting the forum (devs, users, and mods) if there wasnt so much useless info posted.....which mainly consists of the "tease release"
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
That is correct. It's been noted multiple times in the last few pages.

Flash old firmware or wait.

P.
[HTC Sensation] loni90:
haha good, just wanted to check ;)
[HTC Sensation] qwert_:
Flashed new Firmware and 6.1 and was stuck in bootloop. Flashed old firmware and kept new rom. Works for me, still weird that new firmware won't boot. And no, didn't forget to remove pg58img file.

Edit: nvm, thought 6.1 was up and hot confused...
[HTC Sensation] rickvnl:
6.1.0 is not available yet.. so you flashed something different ;)
[HTC Sensation] qwert_:
Yeah lol just noticed that. Dl got auto-renamed to 6-1.0.3 at the end and just saw 6-1 and figured it must be right. Was 6.03 obv
[HTC Sensation] Element515:
I have a question about updating firmware, i have a tmobile sensation 4g and when i use terminal to find my cid it's T-MOB010. It's not on that list of supported cids... is it okay if i flash it still? or no...
[HTC Sensation] mobilarz85:
I know you werent complaining about the rom, you were just being a little rude. He can do what he wants, hes the one making everything happen...Well if people understood android and knew that obviously the firmware has to be updated for the new rom, why would you go and flash the firmware before the rom, when it clearly states update firmware FIRST. Everyone just needs to be patient and follow directions.. hey look thats what im doing and my phone still works. No headache.
[HTC Sensation] boroboy69r:
come on hurry up and upload already :p :D
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
I'm doing my best, considering even going on roof to speed up the upload lol :D
[HTC Sensation] boroboy69r:
lol dont you may fall and then were will we be without a dev like you (no disrespect to you other devs out there)
[HTC Sensation] InquisitiveG:
Now that's going above and beyond!!!:D:D
[HTC Sensation] zimphishmonger:
Again, this type of comment is EXACTLY the reason why a lot of people cant use this ROM. They simply cant keep up with the forum due to the ridiculous amount of posts, so there is NO way to locate the useful info.

Sure, some people know not to flash a random firmware, but some dont. Beginner or advanced, you can still post and it still takes up space.

If the purpose is to have an awesome ROM, no need to advertise or tease before a DL is ready, its like trolling. If your shooting for the most views or downloads, please continue releasing as such as that's the main result of such a release technique.

Ive made my opinion clear, now I'm done taking up space ..... Enjoy!

ARHD 6.1.0

Hi,

Perhaps a stupid question:

Will there be a ARHD 6.1.0 with XE and Beats ?

Yours Morten
[HTC Sensation] broncogr:
Actually he cant do what he wants exactly....

The interests of the forums users are very important also.

Since the new firmware causes bootloops without the yet unreleased Rom, I suggest that either the rom announcement is withheld until it is avaliable or to remove from the Opening posts the new firmware download until the new Rom is out.
[HTC Sensation] trust-no-one:
pics? :p

10chars
[HTC Sensation] sofir786:
Same problem here i ended up in a bootloop after flashing newest firmware, had to roll back in the end
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
Many things are causing bootloops on this forum. I put warrnings everywhere and it's clearly stated that new firmeware is only for new ROM.
[HTC Sensation] biojo:
mike will the old ics batt % work on this new one?
[HTC Sensation] troby86:
You're taking up more space than anyone posting your "opinions".....
[HTC Sensation] broncogr:
But there isnt a new Rom yet....

Hence my suggestion
[HTC Sensation] biggary:
My H-Boot is 1.27.000 now, is that correct??????
[HTC Sensation] mobilarz85:
actually he can at this point, because he could choose not to upload the rom at all. and for those who have updated firmware, the didnt read on and follow directions like i said before. i cant wait either, but it just makes sense that you shouldnt update the firmware before the rom.. i dont know how many times i can say it.
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
I just uploaded it so that people can download it and be ready when ROM is out. But fine, I can take firmware link down.

XE ROM's vs. non-XE ROM's

I'd like a little clarification from The Powers That Be on exactly what ROM I should be downloading when it comes to "XE" and "non-XE" ROM's. Now, I'm not a clueless n00b who can't read. The problem is the stuff you read here can be misleading and/or confusing, hence this question.

I have a Sensation 4G. A while back, an "XE" ROM would turn your Sensation 4G into a Sensation XE (faster clock, Beats Audio, device string, etc). Then there came the ROM's where "only flash this if you have a Sensation XE" was part of the disclaimer. The funny thing was *both* these types of ROM's were called "XE" ROM's...yet both of them, if flashed to the wrong device, would create problems.

So, I humbly ask for guidance: mike's busy uploading ARHD 6.1.0 and it's an "XE" ROM. Is this XE features for non-XE hardware, or XE-only ROM for XE-only users? Or neither? Or both?

Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] boroboy69r:
+1 on that im sort of new (not been flashing my senny long) and i know to read and read agian 1st befor doing anything like flashing fw or roms
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
Firmware link is down :) Will be up again once ROM upload is ready.
[HTC Sensation] capychimp:
If my post gets deleted the one quoted should be removed.too as.it is.just as useless, point to mods, also with the fact of announcement of a Rom without link I recall not allowed
[HTC Sensation] mobilarz85:
that is correct.
[HTC Sensation] EricDET:
Exactly...

Honestly this thread is out of hand to begin with holding 3 different roms... People don't get clear answers to questions because they're buried under other questions asked by people not even running the same rom as them. This thread is pretty much pointless to read if you're on the xda app and not in front of a computer.
[HTC Sensation] k0zmic:
From what I understand it doesn't have the Beats Audio etc. but will work on a 'normal' or XE Sensation.
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
I can't believe you have to do this.

It's like eating off the floor. Don't put stuff in your phone until you know 1) What it is and 2) what it does.

Easy. Read the documentation before doing anything. If you bust it, you busted it.

I've got the firmware tucked away where I can use it as soon as I should.

P.
[HTC Sensation] prisoner881:
Perhaps this is a silly question, but is there any way 4EXT could allow the ROM developers to script a firmware version check before allowing a flash to proceed? That would certainly stop a lot of n00bs (and a few well-intentioned but too-hasty non-n00bs) from bootlooping their phones.

Just a thought.
[HTC Sensation] ziggy1001:
This is the problem with 5 hours waiting and 20+ pages of mostly useless posts being added the pertinent info gets lost
[HTC Sensation] capychimp:
Well flash a ruu its the same as the Rom no code changes
[HTC Sensation] damifineaux:
On another topic...

From post # 2 in the thread, the link to the following is bad: :confused:

4G icon for TMOUS users F only XE-ROM - changes 3G/H icon on statusbar to 4G for USA TMOBILE (Thanks to Fallenangel408)

Don't know if Mike can fix that or not...
[HTC Sensation] Basil3:
On the flipside there would be a lot less drama if no announcements were made until everything is uploaded.

The safest thing is to withhold the firmware link as it only takes a few seconds to download anyway, and can be done simultaneously when downloading the ROM (when its available).
[HTC Sensation] leffep:
Radio link

Good to know:

The DL link for Sensation/Radio_11.68.35 04.00U_11.21.3504.13_2.rar in #4 post are also down.

:
[HTC Sensation] EricDET:
You flash firmware from the boot loader... If people flash the firmware first then they've already caused the problem, so there's nothing to really stop.... Lol.
[HTC Sensation] prisoner881:
Yeah, you noted that too, I see. And searching for things like "XE ROM" turn up so many hits using so many different contexts as to make the search function pretty useless.

This could be fixed pretty easy, IMO. The download links should look like this:

"CLICK HERE FOR SENSATION/SENSATION 4G USERS -- STOCK, NO XE FEATURES"

"CLICK HERE FOR SENSATION/SENSATION 4G USERS -- INCLUDES XE FEATURES, CLOCKS, ETC"

"CLICK HERE FOR SENSATION XE USERS -- INCLUDES XE FEATURES"

No confusion anymore!

[HTC Sensation] prisoner881:
My curiosity is killing me: *how* do you guys get these leaks? Are they smuggled out by sympathetic programmers or is this more akin to the "officially unofficial" leaks where the company lets people have the builds but refuses to acknowledge the build exists until it goes gold?
[HTC Sensation] danilo081:
i know :) But .... :)
[HTC Sensation] dellybelly:
Your trolling right?

And whoever was talking about not flashing the firmware; it's their device who cares. If they want to flash it now and wait till the uploads done.

Half the issue with everyone is trying to be the "voice of reason" but everyone has their own opinions and thoughts on how they want to update their device. Who cares if they installed the firmware first and waited?

Everyone wants to be the good guy standing up for the dev but he seems perfectly capable to do so on his own; just enjoy the software how YOU want to...thats the whole point.
[HTC Sensation] prisoner881:
Perhaps you failed to note the ALL-CAPS, SCREAMING NOTIFICATION ***RIGHT NEXT TO THE DOWNLOAD LINK*** saying the ROM is not done being uploaded?

I mean, come on...really.

in the changelog of the FUTURE ROM, I read:

Does that mean that SebastianFM's 1.5 and 1.7ghz kernels won't be compatible anymore?

From now on when a new Rom is announced it will have its upload links ready or the thread is closed.
