F.A.Q.

"Q 16: My Quadrant score is not as high as on different ROM. What does it mean?

A: It means absolutely nothing. Benchmarks on Android System are more or less lottery and they are not showing the real system performance.

There are many settings that can force Quadrant to show more then 3000 points but it's faked performance, that actually can slow down your phone in some circumstances.

What I always emphasize is a real performance, the one you can feel under your fingers. Remember that I/O has some limit and surpassing it shows just a numbers without true ratio.

Also keep in mind that Quadrant has support for Android Gingerbread only in version 1.1.7 and higher."

[HTC Sensation] Decado_PL:
Guys, you can always flash kernel of your own choose, they are simply flashable under Recovery :P
[HTC Sensation] blue-yu:
Maybe You are right. Then ARHD would be bloatware just like Nero Burning Rom :)
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Make a nandroid backup.

Wipe cache and dalvik and flash any kernel just like a ROM.

But generally,it is advised whenever there is a change of base.

Hi sorry for a noob question - my first time flashing a ROM... it's great :)

BUT... one issue, just did everything perfectly and seemed to install no problems except one major flaw... there is no status bar at the top of my screen!? Anyone else had this issue? (couldn't trawl through 6000 pages sorry)

Any ideas how to solve? Would be very grateful if you could help a novice. Thanks!

TBH since enabling zram on SebFM's kernels I've seen Sense reload maybe once and I'm a pretty heavy user.

The advantage of the Supercharger script is its locked in RAM and so not susceptible to Android memory management.

I actually believe since enabling zram I've seen Sense reload LESS if at all.

I'm not sure how Mike enabled it with 6.5.4 but previously it was done through a script in /etc/unit.d

Hi Mike,

Yesterday i flashed a fresh installation of 6.5.4 with superwipe and I cannot see the top bar or even any icon from it. Then I flash back to 6.5.3 and everything is fine. Where can be a problem?? ( Do not tell me that between chair and keyboard :D )
[HTC Sensation] aben2amu:
It keeps going and going and going... LOL
[HTC Sensation] mulletcutter:
really, I don't have that problem but if you read the last 9 pages you would know...cuz I use the full ics theme. Its fixed in 6.5.5 or take systemui.apk out of 6.5.3 or read past pages

Yes some people are so lazy. They should read up a few pages back. I have to admit I'm no saint either. When I was gone for a few months and got back on ARHD I didn't do a search on my question. Lucky no one yelled at me because I deserved it at that time.

lock screen with low battery

just experienced one issue, the phone was locked and the battery was at aroud 6%.when i pressed the power button to wakeup the phone, there was no option to unlock, on the screen there was only the wallpaper, without icon.i've had to repeat the action around 10 time (press the power button) to get the lockscreen and after the unlock, i see the battery alert popup.

Did you restore from back up from google servers I.e in the setup for the first time did u tick for backup in google servers ? Because I tried without ticking it and the WiFi issue was gone.

[HTC Sensation] SiPiNwItMyDrOiD:
I swear i am going to kick somebody in the teeth if they say im lying on this forum because i am going buck ape sh%@ and dont know what to do or what i could even be lying about. About a half hr ago when going back to stock i got an update that put my phone back to 2.3.4 sense 3.4. about 10 minutes after the phone rebooted and i set everything up. I went to my usual last part of setting up the settings which is the about phone area to turn off all the auto updates. When i clicked on one of them it gave me a message to update to 1.27.000. Im not to experienced on this stuff but i know its not like a kernel or anything cause the kernel version is already 1.50 or something like that stock right now. I dont know wtf. I just need to know somebody,,,, please help me know if i accept this update and it changes my hboot will i be screwed on getting s-off again and flashing any ICS roms. I am on Hboot 1.18 right now and i know the hboot i had for ics said revolution 1.32 s-off so wouldnt the U.S Hboot be like a higher number like 1.40 even 1.33 or something. I only ask this in the Android Revolution thread because it is an Ics thread and i just started using Ics, flipping back and forth running elegancia and android revolution depending on which i want that day and i dont want to not be able to s-off again till months from now when there is a way to unlock tmous hboot version. I just need help knowing what the heck this is cause i already got the so called touchscreen update and that said like 1.50.105 or something like that so this number 1.27 is even way lower than that. & if it had to do with ICS wouldnt they give me the hboot right in the 4.0 update package, so this cant be the Hboot could it? yes it would be nice to get official ICS but not when i cant even do anything fun with my phone anymore, meaning flashing things.AND PS: I AM VERY SORRY FOR THE LONG POST YOU ALL I AM JUST STUCK AND NEED SOME PROFESSIONAL HELP:) LOL. SORRY JUST TRYING TO MAKE FUN OUT OF A PANICKY MOMENT FOR ME:confused::confused::confused::confused::eek:
[HTC Sensation] Kidinferno2113:
I'm sorry if this is a very noob question, but I currently have ARHD 6.5.0, the first version of the ROM that I got. If I flash 6.5.4 will I have to re-do all of my settings, as if I had factory reset the phone, or will it be like updating an app, and all my settings and whatnot will still be there? Thank you in advance
[HTC Sensation] Grem135:
Make a nandroid backup first, then you can flash 6.5.4 (or 6.5.5 if you wait till tomorrow) without superwipe. (that means apps and data stays) you will just have to re-flash any mods

Thanks button is down there somewhere...........v
[HTC Sensation] SiPiNwItMyDrOiD:
Im pretty sure if you jump that far up in versions that you would have to do a superwipe. I do a superwipe regardless if i am just supposed to flash a rom over another or not always to make sure everything is fresh and clean. Plus setting the phone back up is part of the fun. The only other way to keep all of your settings from what i've been taught is by using titanium backup but even though i've been taught it i never paid attention and actually used titanium backup but i know that's one way to keep your settings and widgets.
[HTC Sensation] RickMckc:
No. I think it says on the first page of the thread that you can flash over existing roms as long as they are in the same "family" (6.5.x).

On the other hand, if you read thru some of the posts (like last 20 pages) you will see that, quite often, problems are resolved by doing a superwipe and installing fresh. In that case you want to use Titanium backup or similar app. However, my experience is that it doesn't save all your settings. You might just want to go thru your phone and write down everything that is important settings-wise.
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
I suggest waiting until 6.5.5 is out. There is an issue with 6.5.4 with the notification bar. Then the answer to your question will be that it is a relatively simple update and all you will need to do is flash the 6.5.5 ROM and go through first boot, then reflash your mods after that
[HTC Sensation] Locheed:
No need to superwipe if there isn't problems on Your last rom.
[HTC Sensation] Grem135:
6.5.x are all same base so you don't have to wipe.... but I agree it might be a good idea to anyway :).
[HTC Sensation] Kidinferno2113:
Thank you to the previous 4 posters. I have made a nandroid backup and also backed up my apps with Titanium, so i'll wait for 6.5.5 and then flash without wiping, see what happens. Thanks again for the help
[HTC Sensation] SiPiNwItMyDrOiD:
This is totally understood that it says that and the rom maker says that but even they themselves will tell you if you want to be pretty much 100% sure your gonna get the best experience the way to go is always do a superwipe then flash the rom. Not trying to match wits though just givin my opinion.

STILL IN FREAK OUT MODE HERE PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!​

I am dying here the last about hr and a half without being able to use my phone so it dont download and install something i dont want yet. I will donate to any good answers. Dont care if i gotta give out 6 donations. LOL​

Edit: Maybe someone in the U.S.A could help seeing they might get the same thing as me if they go back to s-on. Especially if they are with t-mobile or have an unbranded htc sensation 4g
[HTC Sensation] joaquinf:
Hi, there are so many things going on here that i don't know where to start. I assume you are on stock rom (or want to be) S-ON because you are worried about not being able to go s-off again. Then I have to ask you this: Do you really want to stay on a stock GB ROM and s-on after using ARHD or any other custom ICS ROM???? if your answer is NO, just forget about those updates and don't mess with htc new firmwares while being s-on!! you are on hboot 1.18 go straight to the revolutionary tool and do s-off flash custom recovery and install a custom ROM!! forget about that HTC crappy updates. We are a step forward here, we get updates before they see the light! :D:D:D thanks to mike and arhd team

Hboot 1.27 has nothing to do with 1.32 or 1.40 or higher number, you are mixing things here. Hboot 1.27 is a part ot the firmware, latest bases has shared this hboot number. AND 1.30, 1.32 and all the coming numbers are BASE/FIRMWARE/RUU number. You can have base 1.50 with hboot 1.27 (hypotetically speaking).. that's it. Stop worriying about that.

So knowing that, why would you want to update to 1.27 (which you will have anyways if you flash ARHD) being s-on?:confused: even if this were the official ICS update. You already have a custom tweaked ROM (ARHD) much better than the stock one with frequent updates, ROOT ACCESS!, custom kernels, touchscreen fixed, overclocked, possibility to have beats ... dude so many things i can keep going on all night.

Stop panicking, chill out, forget about stock gingerbread and crappy htc updates. GO S-OFF ASAP! or get lost into the dark and forsaken stock rom world.

EDIT: there is a procedure here to go back from s-on hboot 1.27 and be able to do s-off even after flashing the latest OTA being s-on. Just in case you insist in download and install that HTC update. What I still don't know why would you.

EDIT2: not professional here ... just giving my best advice and personal opinion :D

Kernel ???

Hi guys

Mike thank you for the great work you are doing.

i want to know which kernel works better on ARHD 6.5.5
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
stock is erm stock, so most stable and offical,

sebs kernel is a slightly modded stock so likely to be more stable

faux's is rebuild from the ground up using source code so is able to bring in totally new features, mods etc but potentially less stable.

Fresh install from 6.5.4, I've done a superwipe.
