I might give the bricked 1.6 a try, maybe.

Btw, does anyone know if there's a Bravia engine mod working for 3.6.8? Does it make a big improvement in screen performance?
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
No, your SD card issue is unrelated to kernel.

Some issues with 11.59 radio. You need to update hboot to use it. This can be dangerous, and may not yield any advantages.

Faux and Bricked offer similar performance and battery life. I prefer Faux and work around camera freeze with keepscreen. If camera freeze is a big issue for you, then Bricked + camerafix is fine. Don't expect any major difference otherwise.

[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Yes the bravia mod is in 3.6.8 but I haven't bothered testing it so I don't know how much benifit it actually is and seeing as nearly every new/updated ROM has it in now, to me its just another one of those things I may never use but may come in handy :)
[HTC Sensation] gewit:
I flashed Sony mod on both bases and see no difference on either one.

It looks great in the demo,but I couldn't get same results on my device..

Other who try it they report the same thing.but hey you can try it.
[HTC Sensation] resynx:
I phone froze after watching a youtube video so I did a reboot by holding down the power and both volume buttons. Before the reboot my battery was in the 50's, but afterwards my battery dropped down to 24%. Anyone know what is causing this or how to fix it?
[HTC Sensation] gewit:
Boot in recovery..

Hold at the same time ; power and volume down button

Or with ROMmanager or 4ext you just launch the app and there in menu press boot into recovery,done.
[HTC Sensation] walkinhotdog:
um what do you guys recommend i do, i downloaded thyparancy honey hd from market and applied the skin. then i removed it since it wasnt to my liking. after that i got my first force close ever on arhd for phone app. I had to restart in order to use it as a phone again (make calls and view people contacts). i just fixed permissions but if that doesnt work, will reinstalling arhd fix everything? do i have to wipe anything? and no i didnt do a nandroid since its just an app and skin. lol. thanks
[HTC Sensation] danilo081:
@walkinhotdog

Just flash again 3.6.8 and clear cache and dalvik-cache partitions

Always is recommended to make nandroid backup prior doing some thing u are not sure, it is only about + 5 min
[HTC Sensation] eliexda:
Can someone elaborate more about the hboot and how do u go on updating it and would that remove the revolutionary tag off my hboot which is somethin I always wanted to do
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
to update the hboot you need to flash the 2.08 RUU exe file via a pc. It won't remove the revolutionary S-OFF message and neither should you want it to because being in S-OFF means you are rooted.

The new hboot is required for the newest radio to be flashed as otherwise the phone will reboot every 10 mins or so. however you will need to go to htcdev.com and unlock the bootloader via that method as well as having the S-OFF as you will need to reflash the recovery image to install a custom ROM
[HTC Sensation] TheEyes:
Remember that the default for this ROM is a 1.2-1.5 GHz overclock on the CPU (and IIRC an overclock on the GPU as well). The reason this ALMOST always works is because the chip is supposed to be a 1.5 GHz chip, which HTC deliberately downclocked to 1.2, but if you're having problems you may just have a bad chip.

Try the fix in the first post that downclocks the CPU, then try again. If that works, then I'm sorry but you just got a (somewhat) bad chip. That's the problem with overclocking; it doesn't always work.
[HTC Sensation] cpom1:
Which one of these roms is better as far as battery life goes and what is the difference between them if both of them are able to use the Beats driver? Sorry if this is a noob question. :confused:

Hi, just want to know which widget in 4.1.8 will allow me to customize my homescreen this way?

http://www.lameijer-pcservice.nl/images/senseovillian/sense13.jpg

Cause I realize I don't have it.
[HTC Sensation] vstar21:
Honestly the best thing is to try them both, does not take much time and you can compare them. When it comes to battery, I got the same results with both which is do to the kernel. The 4.x.x version you have to install beats audio.

Try them both and you decide, everyone like each for their own reason. I personally like 3.x.x. because of the smoothness over 4.x.x.:)
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
I don't believe it is installed on this rom. If it is the widget is called shortcuts and something

volume unlock

i just upgraded to newest version. now my volume buttons wake up the phone. is there way to turn that off. my phone keeps coming on in my pocket, i just want it woken up the power button only.

how can i change that?
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
Neither one of the newest versions of the ARHD ROMs have that feature by default. You must have flashed a mod with that turned on. No way I am aware of to uninstall a mod, you hopefully have a nandroid backup ready? Or you can reflash the same version ROM and then whatever mods you want (minus that one). :p
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
Which newest version? Are you using default kernel of rom? Did you flash any mods?

Widget name is "quick lounch menu" it works only on 3.5 sense.You can find it themes section..
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
This isn't done by the ROM itself. You must have flashed any mod or Theme afterwards.

Hi,

This is a known problem.

If you leave the camera program before switching the phone off, it is fine.

Also, if you hold volume+/- and power button together, it will reboot without having to pull the battery.

Thanks Jotha. Can anyone recommend any mod or alternative camera application having date-stamping function ? :)
[HTC Sensation] Masor:
I put on the bricked kernal 0.25 (latest on on the forum) my phone hasnt rebooted itself, so looks like thats resolved that issue so far.

However i now have a problem that if you go to Camera the camera works as in can see things but if you try to take a photo or exit camera the phone will freeze.

Any ideas? or just a case of trying different kernels? :)

Thanks

Edit: Could be same problem people are experiencing in the above posts?
[HTC Sensation] Sybregunne:
you could say that. It has some bugs. The new version fixes some of those. :D
[HTC Sensation] bachviet:
I'm ready too but I hate to do a super wipe (suggested by Mike).
[HTC Sensation] Pneumatic:
Mike, you fixed the ear icon thing??? What was it?
[HTC Sensation] GrandMstrBud:
I have this installed no problem and went to run some tests on Quadrant and I'm only getting a score of 900 to 1000 which is way below the Nexus One and my son's G2. In setcpu I have it at about 1600 because if I go any higher the phone reboots. Any idea's or suggestions?
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
Probably some entry in build.prop but we are not 100% sure. We were testing it with Pneumatic (huge thanks to Pneumatic) for 5 hours and finally we came to a conclusion that this icon appears after restoring settings from cloud. So 100% working method to get rid of this icon is full wipe (Super wipe from first post) + not restoring settings from google. Set everything once again and you can be sure that non of the issues were imported.
[HTC Sensation] fiendskillz:
yes i do! just create an addon like all the rest :D
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
The problem with "4G" icon is that it's placed in systemUI.apk - most themes are using systemUI.apk so after you flash any theme or mod like extended quick settings 4G icon will be gone anyway.
[HTC Sensation] Pneumatic:

Thanks. I will keep Trying to figure out how to knock it out permanently. We now know how to get rid of it so the next step is KEEPING it away. :)

Keep up the good work Mike.

That's why before I sign in my Google account when setting up a new ROM, I always disable the "Automatic restore" option in Menu>Settings>Privacy.

[HTC Sensation] kaospiloten:
If I do that will it still restore contacts and calender?
[HTC Sensation] bachviet:
Yes contacts and calendar are part of the "Account sync" not "Automatic restore". "Automatic restore" is for apps so it might restore system/app settings as well.
[HTC Sensation] Pneumatic:
That is what I am wondering. If it will restore all but the "settings" I wouldn't mind disabling it. I do like having my apps and contacts restored though.

I will definitely play with this on my next flash.
[HTC Sensation] Pneumatic:
Hmmmmm..... If you uncheck "Back up my settings" it gives a warning that says:

"Are you sure you want to stop backing up your WiFi passwords, bookmarks, and other settings and application data and erase all copies on Google servers?"

This is most likely the fix for the ear icon. We will need to uncheck that and wipe. When the rom is reinstalled we can enable it again and set everything back up. It will be a one time thing.
[HTC Sensation] joshua:

No, totally different things. The other guy just wanted time-stamps. That's a missing feature, not a problem ;).

If you are on 4.1.x then go to bricked thread and download and flash the CAM-Fix that is there.
[HTC Sensation] Masor:
Thanks for the reply, im using 3.6.8 with bricked 0.25

Any fixes for that u know of? if not, Ill download 4.1.8 and try that along with the cam fix aswell when i get a chance later today
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
No, there normally shouldn't be any problem on 3.6.8. There is not any bricked 0.25. That is a faux kernel. Now which kernel do you use?

I would fix permissions in recovery as next step, before flashing any other ROM.

Then try the kernel you don't have atm, so either faux 0.25r or bricked 1.6r or 1.5r.

As to fix permissions whats that? Or what do I do there?

Thanks for the help
[HTC Sensation] i900frenchaddict:
Just because there are more and more posts telling one ROM or one kernel is faster than the other, with no explanation but just a subjective point of view.

You claimed something, then when asking for details, say "waste of time"

Next time, don't state something you refuse to discuss and without giving details, or it's a useless post.

As for 3D games, Bricked has always been faster than Faux since bricked 0.91, I can support this by giving games/emulators fps if you want. Doing support in this thread is your thing (it seems^^), very heavy gaming and emulators beta testing are my things, so reading that Faux is faster was for me a wrong information.

And according to the huge quantity (and quality) of your posts here, people will believe every single one statement you do, they won't take it as subjective, and may keep/flash faux for better speed because you said it.

Hey guys i was successful and i was able to install my 1st rom 3.6.8. I been trying to scheme through all the post and searching but can't seem to find an answer. It's says it's recommended to have the latest RIL 10.58.9035.00U_10.15.9035.02_2 radio on the 1st post. However it also says not to flash radio since the ROM includes the recommended RIL, basically just need clarification and from the search i found some say if the stock radio is working prperly than leave it alone, my version currently running is 10.56.9035.00U_10.14.9035.01 and i believe everything is working fine, haven't really tested, been at the house all weekend : ). So, my question is, should i have to flash radio to 10.58? I'm TMob US by the way....
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
I am on TMobile US and use that radio too. You need to do one more thing if you wanna use that radio. Go to post 2 and click RILs Thread and choose to download .169

Then go into recovery and mount /system then say choose zip to flash and choose that. 169 ril zip you downloaded. You phone will utilize your radio the best it can at that point.

System Tuner Pro seems to show the temp fairly accurately.

I believe faux kernel is equipped with "Thermald" ,which will shut down the phone before any heat damage is caused.

[HTC Sensation] mikef:
Well, if it always shows the same temperature regardless, that is not a good sign. Have you tried a factory reset? That is the only thing I can think of that could reset the temperature sensor if it is resettable and not really broken.

That could be culprit as I am using anker battery, the thought did cross my mind but I ignored it as I thought a battery on supplies power to the phone and surely it can't have any sort of sensor, well done guys,,, mystery solved,, lol, even with an anker battery if the phone get extremely hot will it shut down?

What "menu" are you referring to?:confused:

---------- Post added at 07:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:59 PM ----------

Well, most aftermarket-batteries don't report temperatures. But still there is CPU temperature to care about and that isn't reported by the battery, but by the phone itself via kernel. There have been 2 things mixed up in this conversation, just to make that clear. If you use smth like Elixir, you can view battery temp and CPU temp and they are totally different. Phone would never shutdown because of battery temp, only because of CPU temp. Of course will a hot battery addionally heat up the CPU, but for itself a hot battery only means more drain and less battery life, nothing else.

No, sorry, you are assuming wrong. That Sense is indeed the shell, so it's logical that it has the highest usage time. If you remove the whole Sense 3.5 (which could be done, but only with some issues) and use another Shell, that would use that time, so nothing won.

By the way, yesterday my CPU reached a new record, 74 degrees celsius, while playing a game... Anyone else getting temps high as this? It's pretty normal for my phone... Usually operates at 50-65 degrees, 25-30 when idle...
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
We were talking about battery temp sensor the whole afternoon :). Most aftermarket batteries don't have battery temp readings. The the phone reports the default temp and that seems to be 25.something.

74° for CPU seems to be very high. You might try bricked 1.5r kernel which gave me the coolest phone up to now.
