wow! So if your observation (according your statement) is right and my math is correct, your phone can last about 12.5 days while only doing idling. If so I will definitely switch to that fantastic kernel.:rolleyes:

Btw, my battery experience with ARHD 3.6.7 was nothing compatible to your. After three battery cycles (100% -> 10%), I got the following:

(4th cycle, testing only) 5 hours with screen alwasy on, basically surfing the Internet with Wifi for 40 minutes.

(5th cycle, normal use) 11 hours with screen on for about 2.5 hours, phone call about 15 minutes

(6th cycle, right now) recording this morning, 9 hours passing, battery % read from 100% - 96% since last night with full charged. It was in the airplane mode for 5 hours, purely idle...It's good to notice that when I turn on the screen, the reading dropped from 96% to 94% within 10 secs.

I don't think I can test my battery life for pure idle state (such as airplane mode all the way) because I have to use my phone everyday. However, I am pretty sure with faux's kernel, it won't last 12 days.

I am looking forward to see that any one reports a pure idle test (airplane mode all the way:cool:) and tell me how good this rom can be with faux's kernel:D.
[HTC Sensation] orangestrawberry:
Can someone take a look.

If reboot phone via power options in 4ext I lose battery. If reboot via HTC hardware button I gain it back. Look at usuage. Can someone please have a go and tell me if theirs does the same. I'm beginning to wonder if 4ext is causing some power issues. I could be totally wrong but I did not have these issues using cwm

Thanks

1. Nonsense. Sensation battery reporting is wonky. Yes you'll see 2% in 6 hours. Then an hour later you'll see 20%. The only real test is running the phone for a full cycle. Then another. Then another. Average them out.

2. Why does everybody want to test their phones at idle? On airplane mode?

If you don't use your phone, shut it off then the battery will last for months!!

If you do use your phone, then the only performance that matters is how it works under normal usage.

It's getting to be like a mass hysteria. Bench scores all the time. Then not.

Beats all the time. Then not (although it's made a comeback).

Now Battery.

I use my phone, I've got a 4.3" screen, dual core processors, fast clocks, fast data and I don't have to be near a charger during the day. That's fine for me.

[HTC Sensation] yungyeh:
To be clear, I think it's nonsense, too. Maybe you don't have to do the math to realize it, but I did it because it may explain the phenomenon in its natural way.

Sorry I have to disagree with you. The airplane mode is useful in the following circumstances (at least for me):

1. While you're out of the effective wireless phone signal range and you want to save your battery life without turn off your phone. You can still type e-mail, message and sent them later when you get the signal back.

2. During the night while I was asleep, especially when I forget to put the charger on.

3. For testing the battery drain issue since the one of the faux previous kernels kills 1/4 your battery life for idling overnight (approx 8 hours)

I hope the above reasons explain why people use airplane mode in their regular life:).

Is a freeze while typing due to that handler crash issue?

I experienced once when I was starting to type something during gasbuddy app.
[HTC Sensation] vvveith:
My best guess would be BT!

I notice that the ring, especially if not using normal default ringtones seems a little garbled when listening to music in car on mobile and recieveing a call. I was able to rectify some of the problem by adjusting my radios bluetooth gain, it had a BT gain setting under both the music and cellular listing. I also fiddled around with some of the options on the phone itself that are available when paired with another device. However, even at best, it is hard to distinquish the first couple rings, but now at least I definitly hear the ring. Funny that the notification sound actually cuts down the volume of streaming music when I get an email or text but seem to ignore this when I get a call. So I think it is BT related and varies from device to device. Peace, V:)
[HTC Sensation] Pikaraph:
Can't wait !!
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
Sorry, but this is as much nonsense as the post you quoted :p

For a lot of ppl, including me, the phone is idle more than 90% of the workday. Still I can't switch it off, cause I need to be reachable. I need it responsive for mails, phone and sms. And in this context it is very much intersting how long the device can last lying around cause it's "normal usage" for me very often.

Of course you are right that this battery thing has become a fetish for some. As long as the phone runs long enough to reach a charger easily, it's OK. mAh-fetishism is nonsense.
[HTC Sensation] yungyeh:
Well said.

I only look at % and voltage. I agree the mA reading is purely nonsense.
[HTC Sensation] :
Can someone explain to me what "conservative, ondemand, powersave, intellidemand and performance" is?

Which one takes as the best everyday?

I want to set in "O / C daemon" nothing wrong ;)
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
It's amazing that we completely agree on everything, while you're disagreeing with me.

"Normal usage" means the way you use the phone. Idle is part of usage. ;)

[HTC Sensation] zimphishmonger:
Just wondering, what app do you use to boost BT gain? Volume+ or something else? I use V+ but it constantly FCs, so Id love an alternative

On the keyboards with arrows... I know Swiftkey X is a pay-app, but it is a fantastic keyboard IMO and it does have the arrow keys if you choose to turn them on.

I find that the text prediction lets me avoid typing as it seems to know what I'm going to say next... usually two letters of any word is enough for the correct word to pop up.

I'm not sure that I understand:

Now I have "CPU Daemon Bypass" with only

So my understanding of the battery percentage icon, is that we just take the framework APKs and run it through UOT Kitchen ourselves?
[HTC Sensation] chrisgto4:
Ok gotcha. Didn't see that in the o.p. might have missed it. I use the xda app so it doesn't show the same as a web page. I didn't notice the irc link or expect it to be there in the changelog. I have been checking by the other links in the dl section of the o.p.. I looked for 2 days before asking my "stupid" question.

[HTC Sensation] chrisgto4:
Yeah the dang app is always messing with me. Usually when I don't see the link after a cpl passes I hot menu-open in browser and then I find the link. I remember in the hd2 wm development it always seemed like the devs tried hard to hide the dl links in a cpl different places on really long o.p.'s. Either way thanks for the help. Will add changelogs to my list of places to look for links. I never log into irc chats because honestly dont have much to offer so why take up the space. I try to just wait patiently till stuff happens.

Hi. Does with "battery auto-calibration" means that I don't need to wipe battery stats in CWM? This is my first flash on Sensation.. the last time I flashed ARHD was on DHD but at that time there was no battery auto-calibration so I'm clueless :D
[HTC Sensation] chrisgto4:
What is stfu? Im guessing to know these problems i would need to read every post in this thread to find the single post that may explain these problems. No time for all that . I spent the last two days just trying to find the link to 1.1.6. Hey i just googled stfu. I think (stupid uneducated redneck guessology) that falls under the cat. of FLAMING. You better hope they hid that REPORT POST button in an irc chat somewhere cuz im looking for it. Try reading the forum rules before imposing your own rules about what i can post.
[HTC Sensation] chrisgto4:
I would just do both. I know that the recovery was compiled just for sensation because its missing some options you would see on other phones. So to me it means they left it in there for a reason. Does it work??? Im not sure. But definetley follow any directions given in any rom installation guide for optimal performance.
[HTC Sensation] dubie76:

[HTC Sensation] ashasaur:

[HTC Sensation] afhum:
when you say both, what do you mean? am i on the right track thinking that the battery auto-calibration is intended to.. not be required to wipe battery stats manually via CWM? i wanted to wipe battery stats when the currentwidget app shows 0mA but odd thing is that the sensation doesn't go down to 0mA when i leave it charging for hours even if it says fully charged, unlike on DHD..
[HTC Sensation] H0CKEY:
Not sure if this has already been mentioned , but i will mention it anyways!!! hahahaa

[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
Bypass means the Governor will do all the work rather than the daemon and intellidemand is (quoted from faux)

"It is based on on-demand. The reason it is called intell- is because of the following:

1. It takes into account 3D GPU's busy status. If 3D GPU is super busy, which means either Rosie (HTC launcher is full of 3D accelerations) is active or you are playing a 3D intensive game, then the governor will act EXACTLY like ondemand. If 3D GPU is idling or have very little load, the intelli governor will LIMIT your max frequencies to a lower number (1.0GHz) to save power. Web browsing, email, book reading, texting etc do not require CPUs to run @ Max frequencies to accomplish those tasks.

2. When screen is off, intelli governor will again limit its max frequencies (since you aren't doing anything CPU intensive when screen is off).

The switch between intelli mode and normal on-demand mode is almost instantaneous. It is checked a fairly fast intervals so the transition is completely smooth and unnoticeable."
[HTC Sensation] gibbs1984:
Thanks very much :)

Actually, how do I go back to the normal keyboard if I don't like this mod, is a backup the only way? Actually I suppose just flashing the ROM again would fix it.
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
Intellidemand is a governor, based on "ondemand". It senses screen state, so you don't need sleep and wake profiles. It senses 3D GPU usage, so it runs at full speed when needed (Rosie, Gaming), but limits clocks to 1.08 when not using 3D.

Bypass simply turns off profiles (sleep and wake) because you no longer need them. By letting the kernel do all the work, you're avoiding lag brought on by daemon trying to control clocks outside of the kernel. Now you're using the OC Daemon application simply to set minimum and maximum clock speeds, the daemon itself is bypassed.

P.
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
Before you flash this mod go to /system/app and copy the HTC_IME.apk out of there somewhere safe. You dont like it. Put your backup back in there and you should have stock keyboard back.

**NOTE - If you have already flashed the mod and don't like it. Unzip Mike's 3.6.7 file and take the HTC_IME.apk from there in /system/app
[HTC Sensation] gibbs1984:
Cool, thanks very much :)

How did you manage to go back? Just copy HTC_IME.apk back to system/app? didn't work for me, now I have no keyboard lol

adb remount

adb push HTC_IME.apk /system/app

adb reboot (keyboard will be back)

if not then mount /system as RW and put file in /system/app.

Reboot.

[HTC Sensation] akpe:
Well, after moving the .apk back with root explorer and rebooting, it still didn't work.

So what I did was to replace the "modded" HTC_IME.apk in the HTC_IME_3.0_Classic.zip with my backed-up HTC_IME.apk, went into recovery, mounted system, flashed it, and now I have my old keyboard back :D

I don't think it will break anything since I think that's the only file being changed. Right? :rolleyes:

All-in-One Mod for ARHD 4.1.x

I have compiled an All-in-One Mod for 4.1.x ROMs for those that don't want to flash a bunch of different mods.

It includes:

APM

EQS (with or without "recent Apps")

CRT-Animation

Screen-Rotation Animation

The APS,EQS,CRT and Rotation are based on blackdog7's ( thanks for permission to use them ;)) mods, the one with recent apps in notification bar has the EQS of fallenangel408 (thanks to him also) included.

Have fun :). And don't forget to make a nandroid before flashing. You never know...

Be advised that adding your own UOT-Kitchen mod after this one could delete the EQS, depending on what you modded with the kitchen.

Here's another one that includes an UOT-Kitchen-mod I made, to add some eye-candy:

Firstly, by discovered, I mean I've googled and the helpful guys here have pointed me in the right direction......

and by ROM i mean 3.6.7....

So right now I've discovered how to:

1) Disable Recent Apps

I've also discovered flashables for:

1) Enhanced Quick Settings

2) Circle Battery Mods

Flashing is so 2011...

Is there anyone who can point me in the right direction on how the second two flashables were created? I'd like to create an app to make it easier to mod this super stable rom. Failing which I will at least be able to create a customisable all-in-one flashable.

I believe the Circle Batt Mod is from UOT, but if they can do it, I believe so can I... I hope. ;)

My phone just went to a black screen and force restart.

I took 4 pictures of my artwork, and then put the artwork into storage (2mins).

I took my phone and press power. the screen is black, but the back light of the 4 keys are on. Pressed power a few more times, nothing happened.

any advice what caused it?

ARHD 3.6.7

Also, I notice my signal was not good compare to 4.1.6. I had no signal in my college's parking lot, while I had one bar with 4.1.6 in the parking lot.

I remember that because I downloaded ARHD Rom in that parking lot last time on 4.1.6...(2 weeks ago), but now there is no signal at all....

any advice?

Hi everyone

I am currently on 3.6.2 and want to update to 3.6.7

And I was wondering what does it mean Remember to check MD5 Checksum before flashing !!!. How do I check that and Why? Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] nba1341:
You check md5 checksum before flashing a rom because if md5 does not match then download is corrupted and you could potentially brick your phone.

Most file explorers can check md5 checksum under details. I personally use mand5

I believe there is also a way to check in recovery

Hi,

Google and download a MD5 checksum tool,and use it to check that you have a good download.

It will not match up if the download is corrupted.
