The new radio without matching firmware is the culprit. If you want to use ICS, you should flash the firmware. It is available in same post as the ROM.

For an explanation of what you're doing, and how to do it go here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=20713530&postcount=1

There is a very big difference in the performance, speed, smoothness and stability if the firmware is loaded.

Hawke84 has done a wonderful thing by consolidating so much ICS stuff in one place. Skip over the AOSP stuff (I like sense, myself otherwise I'd have bought a Galaxy) but thread is very informative. If you can't read all 90+ pages it is a good thread to search (you do know how to search, don't you? [apologies to Lauren Bacall, although that line made no sense at all it is the sexiest thing anybody's ever said, ever])

Good luck – I'm loving ICS, even with its teething pains.

Hi Mike best wishes!

I wanted to ask if you had considered my idea to create a addonds for taking pictures with the front camera. my intention was to create an addon that pressing the vol + can take a picture!

what do you think?

The faux kernel following 3.6.10 gave me 2-3 spontan reboots, so I changed to bricked again. But this time, faux felt smoother.

Can you please begin to post the differences / fixes in the kernel within the changelog? It helps a lot.

Hello Paul,

Thanks for this very informative thread. I had actually updated everything and had to go back to radio 10.58 because of crashes with radio 11.59.

With 10.58 I get a rock solid ICS, I'll try flashing to 11.59 see what happens. I'm all new to this (coming from the iPhone world) and so far loving it !

[HTC Sensation] ltjmax:
If I downloaded the 10.58.9035.00U_10.15.9035.02_2 radio in a PG58IMG.zip is it safe to flash it vie recovery??

I don't have Windows so I can't follow the instructions in the rar file found at the first page of this thread and I tried to find how to flash a radio on the htc sensation and found nothing so I prefer to ask before trying anything that could be harmful for my new sensation. On my old htc Legend, I had no problem flashing by recovery, but i prefer to ask to be sure it's ok.

Thanks for your answer and sorry for my poor english

[HTC Sensation] maschenazi:
Happy new year everybody!

Just updated to 3.6.11, thanks Mike.

Have you ever thought of using incremental updates (like OTA) instead of a full ROM update every time ? Wouldn't it be easier to upload / download and even make them, especially with such small changes every time ?
[HTC Sensation] darkburst1991:
What does "stop mpdecision" do....?just curious
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
Normally I don't do incremental updates because it provokes extra questions like "what order should I flash" or "do I flash full ROM first or just incremental update" etc.. It's also easier for new users to flash full ROM instead of ROM + update.
[HTC Sensation] Termike:
It might have been asked already, but couldn't find it!

I found that with this Rom some market apps are missing.

I installed eris market fix, and that fixed the problem but I was wondering what the problem was, and if others have this problem aswell?
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
Do not flash a radio in recovery. Put PG58IMG.zip on the root of your SD card (can't be inside any folder).

Then boot to bootloader. Bootloader will detect the image and ask if you want to update. Follow the instructions, and be patient. Interrupting this process will brick your phone.

Make sure you check MD5 sum before attempting this as as corrupt file may brick your phone.

When update is complete boot phone normally. Remove the PG58IMG.zip or you won't be able to boot into recovery.

P.
[HTC Sensation] jjrumph:
Gotta get faster to beat Paul to the answer.

Dont flash that in recovery.

Put the file on your sd card,boot into bootloader, you'll see it load and ask do you want to load it (vol up). Just follow the instructions. You may also want to load the correct ril for your radio. See OP for ril pages in xda
[HTC Sensation] Levraimatt:
Ok I've just updated to 11.59 radio and am getting reboots, so back to 10.58. I'm positive my ROM has been updated with PG58IMG and I have a question that I have yet to see answered :

I have correctly updated by flashing in recovery, deleted it from SD. However, everytime I get in recovery mode, the phone looks for the PGM58.IMG files. Is this normal or is this the sign of something that went wrong (other than this, everything works great) ? Thanks guys !
[HTC Sensation] baste07:

One last noob question, how can I tell PGM58 has effectively updates my phone ? It seems I'm missing something somewhere, because the phone is perfect with radio 10.59 but crashes with 11.58, even after the update...

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=20810048&postcount=39252

Too bad 2.1 FCs on me :( using the ICS ROM.
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
I have no idea what you're talking about.

ROMs do not include radios, unless you executed a full RUU. So I'm not understanding that part at all.

If you "flashed" a PG58IMG.zip in recovery, you've done nothing. This is not a recovery zip. It must be flashed through the bootloader. So, your radio hasn't changed.

Your phone isn't letting you get to recovery because your Radio image is still on the SD card.

Flash your PG58IMG.zip in bootlader, then boot to normal operation. Delete the image from SD card.

Now you have correct radio and can get to recovery when needed.

There is some misunderstanding about what zips.are flashable in recovery. Those are not regular archives, these include an execute file which will load the correct pieces into their respective locations in the system.

As Freud once said, sometimes a zip is just an archive.

Has anyone tried the 5.0.2 ICS rom? I'm currently using 4.1.9 and was thinking of making a change. Also, do I need to superwipe if I do or just flash on top of current rom? Thank you for your help
[HTC Sensation] sebach:

thanks
[HTC Sensation] Levraimatt:
Ok thanks for explanation, it works now, I was not applying the proper procedure ! Thanks for helping a noob !
[HTC Sensation] Jimmah555:
For those using 4.1.9:

Two days ago, I suddenly started getting random reboots throughout the day. I hadn't changed a thing except for the addition of a new app or two. I uninstalled the app "Couponz" I had downloaded to get deals at my favorite local cafe, and magically it was fixed. Just thought I'd throw this out there in case others have the same issue.
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
No worries, I had a hard time understanding what was flashable in recovery and what needed to go through bootloader.

The confusion comes from the fact that they are both in zip format.

A zip is just form of archive. The main advantage is that it is less likely to have individual files become corrupted. It is a package all wrapped up with a header describing its contents.

A CWM or recovery zip is an archive with an execute file, open it up and you will see a folder called META-INF. This includes scripts with the instructions on what to do with the other files found in that archive. The recovery then loads up all the elements properly. So, for an application it will put the .apk file in the correct folder within the system (data or app, depending on what kind of application it is). For a mod, it will take the elements and place them where they belong, replacing the original files (i.e. system/etc/customize).

Good luck. Once you get started with this stuff, it is hard to stop yourself. Soon you will be an arrogant, know-it-all flash junkie like me. And I'm always learning from the smarter people here. And there are some really smart people here. :D

You need new firmware to run 11.59 or else your phone will keep rebooting randomly
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
It's working great and a big visual improvement over 4.1.9.

It does still have some teething pains, but there are great resources here to solve all the problems. If you want to use it, I'd recommend doing it right, upgrading the firmware and fixing scroll speed, image permissions etc.

Do some reading before you commit. ICS is great, but it's not really turnkey. You have to roll up your sleeves and do some work yourself to reap the benefits.

[HTC Sensation] howetechnical:
I know this is in prior posts, but I just want a status update on certain fundamentals with the Sensation and ICS (this build of ICS, 5.0.2 ARHD).

-Bluetooth (is it reliable? I use my earpiece for talking about 3-4 hours per day on the road).

-WiFi (not as important as BT, but nice to do updates and podcast downloads on)

-Radio (specifically in Southern California, how is reception and call retention? Are there significant call drops?)

My main concern is being able to make and receive phone calls reliably over bluetooth.

This is really the ****z -I did fw update from Mike's thread when it was released finally flashed 5.0.2 this morning runs nice and smooth so soon I haven't been back to gb but once since the fw dropped I see why this thread has all the views it does -its kinda hard to filter thought haven't so many different builds running together-I am scid W 11111111 was wondering if I change to htc__001 is their added benefit?Or being in USA can I revert back to T-MOB010 and get full market access?

Question about camera

I just downloaded and flashed arhd 4.1.10 a couple days ago and today 4.1.11 and i have been having so many problems with lag with any kernel,stock,the kernel in the rom, and any other custom kernel out there. Im having a feeling the kernel is what is causing the problem that is why i mention it. But to make it short i used the 4.1.x version cause i like the camera that comes in the rom better cause the panorama works better than the amaze cam. The amaze cam has some funky stretch while taking the pic function that makes it almost impossible for me to take a pic but the stock camera in 4.1.x has the panorama where you just move a line to three different dots and it takes a picture at each dot, then stitches the picture and it always comes out perfect.

Again to make a long questory short,LOL, i would like to know is it possible to extract the camera apk out of the 4.1.x rom and delete the camera apk out of the 3.6.x rom and replace it with the 4.1.x camera rezip the zip file and then flash the rom without breaking anything. Just wondering if this has been asked or done before.I've looked through about 150 pages skipping here and there and can find nothing about it, even in other rom forums. Thank you anyone that can dontae me some help or info. HAPPy NEW YEAR

Quick question:

Im going to flash Android Revolution HD with Ice Cream Sandwich & HTC Sense 3.5 just to try something out.

I have backed up my default (stock) rom with cwm. Now im going to super wipe and flash the custom rom.

but..

If i want to go back to my default rom do i need to use super wipe and just restore my backed up (stock) rom? Is that all?
[HTC Sensation] HorstDCC:
No it isn't. It's a beta. There are a few who use it as a daily driver; I do.

I have zero issues, but I don't play the games that won't work, I don't use Spotify which doesn't work, I test for fun and keep reading

When unsure: don't flash!

Wow, am I?

To get the full ICS experience without issues its advised to flash firmware before flashing the ROM. This makes going back to a non-ICS ROM a little bit more complicated. It's still easy, but you will have to read the guidelines carefully.
