How to "downgrade" ?

Hi

After experimenting with some ics roms, I would like to revert back to gingerbread.

Now I'm trying to install the rom from this thread:

Android 2.3.4 (Gingerbread) + Sense UI 3.0 + Beats Audio (HTC stable)

But when i install it (after i wiped everything using the super_wiper programme)

it gets into a kind of a bootloop, i can still see the ICS bootscreenanimation, so I think thats interfering somehow.

So i thought maybe i could use a gingerbread RUU to kind of force it back to gingerbread, and from there on install this interesting gingerbread rom.

But the RUU wont work, its giving me an image error 155, so that didn't help.

So i guess I need a way to revert back to gingerbread and somehow stopping the ICS stuff from interfering, does anyone know how to do this, thanks.

You need to restore the right firmware first. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=21989063&postcount=1 <-- Scroll to bottom. :D
[HTC Sensation] joaquinf:
If you just want to go back to gingerbread to ARHD follow the instructions provided above this post by nucleotide :D.

But, if you need to go back to a stock ROM follow the second method posted here. I've tested personally today and was the only way i could flash a RUU. I was having the same 155 error

Ok guys thanks for the rapid response !!

Sense 4.0 ??????

Hi,

I read that a HTC Endeavor ROM was leaked (this ROM should include Sense 4.0 if I'm not mistaken) Perhaps we soon can enjoy Sense 4.0 for your HTC Sensation phones. Any news concerning this ?

Yours Morten
[HTC Sensation] H89P:
The Endeavor proejct team, or how you call it, managed it to boot on the Sensation. Trip has just posted som screens a few minutes ago via twitter

Look here

But I don't think it will be any better than Mike's Rom is now. Just due to the fact that there has to be lot to be done and resized and tweaked. And 6.2.1 is "stock"
[HTC Sensation] Dijkstra88:
It already works my mistake ;)
[HTC Sensation] fs61:
Short question: Mike will you implement an update service via OTA? Today I've seen a Rom with this feature. Would be great instead of checking a few times in the week wether there is a new version available.
[HTC Sensation] themadmen:
I need help my wallpaper on this rom is not showing 100%.
[HTC Sensation] Pikaraph:
You need to resize your picture before downloading it on the phone.

The way I do it : I create a 960x540 picture, then I copy it in a 1198x674 picture --> when you choose it as a wallpaper, it will be cropped keeping the right size.
[HTC Sensation] h0und:
I dont have this as often as you describe, but my phone also reboots at the weirdest times. I got the advice to put all my apps on the phone (not sd). Since then i've had much less reboots. They still happen, but not as often as before.

Maybe you could try this to?

i try to use this theme

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=21807032&postcount=39

--> at the clock all new digits get drwan over the old one resulting in a non readable white mess

how can i resolve that?

(should i flash/update rosi??)

Even I never had such issue. From the day one I am using 1.5 Ghz Kernel.. :D
[HTC Sensation] paranull:
you dont have wifi problem coz thats something based on Wifi country code and the sim-card you are using! & to confirm that problem, i have to say " Yes , in some countries including mine, that wifi issue exists and the problem can be solved HERE on this thread! "

btw that problem has been solved ages ago ;) and i really like this rom

About the ringtone bug

I found this section in the build.prop file.

Are there any options here to prevent the ringtones from resetting?
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
That has always been in the build.prop.

It is for when the phone initially boots aftwr first flash it sets the defaults to that.

Mine says same thing and my ringtones are different. I had the ringtone issue on 3.6.x and a reflash fixed the issue for me but nothing else did (permissions, edits, etc)

Sent from my Sensation in Ur-Quan subspace
[HTC Sensation] jjrumph:
You can simply move ringtones you want to system/media/audio/ringtones. Then they appear as choices and wont reset when you reboot.
[HTC Sensation] Mathias1:
So, if I reflash, it may fix this issue? :-)
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
Try what jjrumph suggested first :) if that doesn't do it then reflash should fix it.

Sent from my Sensation in Ur-Quan subspace
[HTC Sensation] H89P:
EQS works without any issues!
[HTC Sensation] Mathias1:
Well, i shouldn't have to store my music internally, right? ;-)
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
I don't. I host it on my sdcard in /media/audio/notifications /media/audio/alarms etc.

So nope you shouldn't have to.

Sent from my Sensation in Ur-Quan subspace
[HTC Sensation] Technane:
no you shouldnt but things i want specifically for Ringtones,

I have on my SD card under X:\media\audio\ringtones

then they are by default in the pick list and rarely change on reboot.

other way is yes to copy them into the phones root but i have never tried to do this.

[HTC Sensation] roly99:
After using Galaxy Nexus for a few days I gotta say not totally impressed. The only thing I truly enjoyed was the screen, and even then I could not get over lost screen real estate while playing video. I had N1 and NS and to me Sensation kicks both their asses. True its comparing grapefruit to orranges, but my Sensation works 100% for me. Can't say I've ever been more content with a phone and its all thanks to mike and the arhd Rom. I just hope mike jumps on the edge/endeavor when its out.
[HTC Sensation] alireza_simkesh:
Is there really no solution to the Bluetooth problem?:(
[HTC Sensation] Technane:
sorry but in over 5k pages of thread I have no clue what Bluetooth problem you are referring too
[HTC Sensation] shaedz:
Hope something new comes soon.
[HTC Sensation] prisoner881:
Mike, are there any known issues with the current 6.2.x builds relating to Bluetooth keeping a remote device "awake" when it shouldn't? I've got a Jawbone ERA which usually gives me up to 5hrs talk time under the old 3.6.x builds. With 6.2.x, I can talk about 30 mins during the day but at the end of the day it will tell me "about 1 hour remaining." Never did this under 3.6.x.

Not a big thing, just wondering really. Can't wait for the official ICS to hit next month!!!
[HTC Sensation] Miloud Florian:
salvation

I have a huge concern, I installed this file "CRT-Screen on / off Animation (version 0.1)" but the problem is that once installed, the phone restarts is stuck on the logo Beats audio.

What should I do?

I use a ROM for XE "ANDROID REVOLUTION HD SENSATION 6.2.1 XE"

Thank's
[HTC Sensation] w_bovine:
It wasn't me! Just...er, watch where you step. :D
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
Reflash the Android Revolution 6.21 XE file again (no need to superwipe) to remove the CRT animation that caused your issues.
[HTC Sensation] alireza_simkesh:
i mentioned it yesterday in this thread....I cant pair any devices with my phone. i have tried 5 different devices but it says the security code (which is required for pairing) is incorrect! but it doesn't even show the security code!
[HTC Sensation] SlideR270295:
I tryied to send a song to my friend and bluetooth didnt worked.

First time is started and found him. It's showed "sending xxxx file" and only that. He didn't resive anything. I restarted the phone and tryied again. This time it didn't turn on.
[HTC Sensation] Miloud Florian:
it's ok, but I'd take advantage of the animation that should I install? View that this file is for this rom, but does not work.
[HTC Sensation] Technane:
have you tried reflashing the rom (no superwipe) and see if the problem persists?

if so which kernal are you using?

---------- Post added at 04:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:32 PM ----------

Personally i would turn bluetooth off on the phone anyway to save power? unless its actually in use? although? are you one of those that constantly has headset on? even while walking?

---------- Post added at 04:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:35 PM ----------

there isn't currently a version of that mod for the 6.2.x rom so you will have to either cook the mod yourself or wait and see if someone else produces it.
[HTC Sensation] alireza_simkesh:
No i didn't try reflashing but i had this problem with earlier version of ARHD (2.3.4). So i dont think its a problem with the ROM.

But it might be a problem with the kernel. Right now i am using the 1.2 Ghz kernel which ARHD asks if you wanna install before the installation of the ROM.
[HTC Sensation] jntdroid:
There is a bluetooth "issue", but it's inconsistent, and seems to vary by device (bluetooth, not phone). I posted this yesterday, or the day before, but I'm wondering if it has anything to do with this "known bug" in 4.03 ROMs (I don't know what this means, so feel free to enlighten!):

"- Bluetooth Won't allow PAB Access, nor prompt for it, generally seems to be a bit hit and miss"
[HTC Sensation] tx3m:
Does anyone else have problems with Sense, after rebooting the phone? Every time I reboot the phone, I get the message "Unfortunately Sense stopped working". I tried flashing the rom again, but nothing changed. I'm using the 1.2 gHz kernel, and the recommended firmware.

And the other thing I noticed, I can't access text documents, if they file names are written in language different than English (Bulgarian in my case). Changing the file name, using english letters fixes the problem, but is not very convenient when you have hundreds of files, that you need. So is there something else that I can do about this?
[HTC Sensation] jjrumph:
As for sense closing, make sure you have no apps on sd. Look in manage applications and uncheck any that are on sd.
[HTC Sensation] Pard0ned:
Would you ray it's better than stock sense beats? Just downloaded and giving it a try anyways. Lol.
[HTC Sensation] alireza_simkesh:
i also think its a problem with PAB. We might be able to fix it by changing some of the permissions manually?!...
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
Finally got control over the Sensation RIL thread and made a few initial edits to the first post. I don't have a huge amount of time today as work is interfering with my life on XDA again :D but I welcome any and all suggestions on fixes and improvements in that thread and I will try to get them done.
[HTC Sensation] jntdroid:
what is PAB? I try to look it up and only come up with PAN related to bluetooth... maybe the PAB was a typo though
[HTC Sensation] w_bovine:
I came up with the same thing. PAN makes a great deal more sense in this context.
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
I believe it is the Personal Address Book.
[HTC Sensation] alireza_simkesh:
yea thats what i meant too.

Basically i think it is related to the encryption of bluetooth which is needed when pairing devices...
[HTC Sensation] Miloud Florian:
there isn't currently a version of that mod for the 6.2.x rom so you will have to either cook the mod yourself or wait and see if someone else produces it.[/QUOTE]

agree but why it offers a file specially adapted to this rom but not work?? Because frankly I wanted this movie too that I had on my DHD

CRT Animation: Only For 4.1.x or 3.6.x ARHD

Sorry, but if you read post #2 carefully, you should see that the CRT mods are only listed under two headings:

Mods and Add-Ons for ARHD 4.1.x ONLY

Mods and Add-Ons for ARHD 3.6.x ONLY

Therefore, there is no CRT mod specifically adapted for the 6.2.x versions of ARHD.
[HTC Sensation] B-Man2005:
Damn ... I never waited for a final so badly as for ICS with sense ... Ahhhh

Oh, sorry.

and nobody can create one for this rom? Please.

I have HTC Sensation with Android Revolution HD 6.2.1

Everything works great except one thing I am having problems with which is the wifi with 802.1x security type. I know my authentication is correct, just not sure why it is not connecting. Tried it on my ipad and worked great.

Was just wondering if anyone has experienced similar issue?
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
if you mean MS-CHAPV2 then yeah it has been mentioned before but no known fix yet.

Works on non-ICS roms.
[HTC Sensation] joaquinf:
Hi guys. After my misfortunate issue with the touchscreen in ICS i've tried pretty much everything to fix it but i haven't had any luck at all, i.e: reflashing fw (1.17, 1.23, 1.27),reflashing stock rom and start from scratch, flash 6.0.x and 6.1.x ... you name it.

What i'm facing now is that i've lost the kinetic scrolling in gingerbread (that feature when with only one swype you can reach the top or bottom of a list) and i was wondering if there is any way to tweak or control that variable to get it working again. Besides that my touchscreen is working perfectly in gb.

Any thoughts?
[HTC Sensation] w_bovine:
I've followed your tale of misery and woe. At this point is it unreasonable to think there actually might be a hardware problem?

[HTC Sensation] joaquinf:
Well ... get the digitizer replaced is my last resort, but touchscreen in gingerbread is working fine in gb excepting the kinetic scrolling. Everything works, i've done several tests and i have 100% responsiveness. No lack, no issues, nothing.

I don't think it might be hardware related, but who knows. I have no clue and replacing the digitizer, at this point, is almost the only option left.

---------- Post added at 03:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:15 PM ----------

I've done that already with no luck ... i don't think is related to a grounding problem.

Thanks though
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
The issue is caused by the WLAN driver most likely.

The only way I can think to fix it is to replace tiwlan_drv.ko from the 6.2.1 zip, another rom, or the stock RUU but I haven't tested this myself due to my WiFi is fine.

That is how they fixed it on CM9 for the Defy
[HTC Sensation] w_bovine:
I understand what you're saying, but the thought occurred to me because it appears your situation has deteriorated with the loss of kinetic scrolling on GB.
[HTC Sensation] Miloud Florian:
Person, can create this CRT for me?
[HTC Sensation] joaquinf:
That's kinda true but, Shouldn't be the same episode in both bg and ics? Was a coincidence that i was scrolling in ics when the screen got frozen and now i cant get kinetic scrolling in gb? drivers related? but screen is working with fw 3.12 + gb rom ... so many things i can't find an answer.

That's what i'm saying i might have to get the digitizer replaced because there's nothing else to blame but hardware ... wtf? :eek:
[HTC Sensation] w_bovine:
The difference might have to do with the touchscreen drivers for ICS and GB not being exactly the same. At least that's the thinking in my BSE-addled mind. ;)
[HTC Sensation] joaquinf:
K, but touchscreen is working fine (except kinetic scrolling) with ics firmware (3.12) the problem is with the 3.24 + 6.2.1
[HTC Sensation] klefreak:
any under ics working FREE alternative to "betterbatterystats" ??
[HTC Sensation] w_bovine:
Indeed, but doesn't firmware work between drivers and hardware, that is, it's the lowest level before hardware?

And again, the situation has gotten worse over time.

It has to be Android or Mikes fault right?

Oh wait!!!! Sense isn't even a part of the native Android OS, so must be Mikes fault or HTC's, could never be an operator error!
