So I noticed today that my up time matches my awake time.....I'm using 4.1.6.....so I super wiped and reinstalled The rom. Its still doing the same thing. Any ideas?
[HTC Sensation] martinez5241:
After writing that posted I went back to the first page and figured it out. Man am I slow right now.

So the difference between both of them is the sense and the beats by dre? I have my sensation 4g and I want to have the best Rom for speed, camera and audio. Would you suggest this Rom? I was using hypersensation but the camera was not full screen. Help me out here, changing roms every 3 days is getting very tiring for me, I wish beastmod Rom was still alive.
[HTC Sensation] johnkristian:
Reboot and go to sleep. Then you will see if the phone actually can sleep (while running on battery). That will make it way easier to understand what's happening. When you wake up, check your uptime/wake stats.
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
I am on 3.5 sense myself and couldn't be happier. I get good- batter life. Wonderful speed and smoothness. This to me is the best rom there is and leaves so many gates open to flash the mods you on it

Sent from my HTC Sensation in UR-Quan subspace.
[HTC Sensation] david7598:
I've tried that already though. And I super wiped and its still doing it. I did recently go from 3.x.x to 4.x.x without super wiping. So I thought that's what the problem was. So I super wiped and reinstalled the rom and its still doing it

what happen? faux thread on new kernel gone?

Hi,

It seems that Faux has packed his bags and gone.

This truly is a sad day.

Blazing speed? Is it faster than using 3.6.5 rom ? ty
[HTC Sensation] antrax360:
Ok so i bought this phone recently and as soon as i got it i rooted it and flashed this rom. Now my battery life is just stupid lol. I dont even get 4 hours without having to charge the phone. Like lets say i turn on the phone right now i watch a clip i recorded with the cam, a video of like 30 45 seconds long and the battery drops 10%. I have my brightness set to the lowest. wifi is on all the time plus my data connection, gmail sync is on. I havent done anything other than flashing the screen animations. I dont know if is this rom or the phone itself since i only used the phone like for 10 mins with the stock rom. i followed the instructions and did every step as stated. any suggestions will be appreciate it. also why is my up time same as the awake time? android revolution hd 3.6.5
[HTC Sensation] preficks:
Same here in 3.6.5. News & Weather widget always shows "No weather information available" when the phone is first started and it doesn't auto-update. If I click the widget, and then manually refresh, it gets the weather data just fine. If I delete the widget, and re-add the widget, it gets the weather info without any problem. But on first startup, it just won't show weather info... This is with default kernel in the 3.6.5 ROM.

I'm coming from 3.6.1 and the News & Weather widget worked without any problems there.
[HTC Sensation] micanuck:
I have a similar experience with a great combination. Will be running this for awhile.

Thanks Mike, Thanks Faux :D:D:D:D:D
[HTC Sensation] antrax360:
i need help please
[HTC Sensation] jhobert:
Maybe you should try to restore the phone back to factory stock, un root and un s off so you will know if its the phone or the rom, but i doubt that its the rom thats causing so huge battery drain.
[HTC Sensation] akpe:
Top of my head (and since I'm no expert please correct me if I'm wrong).

Which kernel do you have? If using the kernel which came with this rom, try to flash faux 0.2.4r kernel (search for the link, was posted a few pages back), which greatly improves battery life. At least it did for me. You can also try bricked kernel.

Which o/c tool and governors do you use? I'm personally using fauxclock with intellidemand governor, no need to set seperate clocks on screen off.

Have you calibrated your battery? If so have you waited a couple of days/couple of recharge cycles? Most roms do eat up a great deal of battery after flashing, but after a few days consumption drops to "normal".

Have you turned off your HTC Sense account and disabled various syncs (or at least make them sync at a large interval). Constantly syncing also drains battery.

Also, for standby drain download betterbatterystats and take a look at possible wakelocks when device is asleep.
[HTC Sensation] antrax360:
is there anything i could do to try to make it better, like another kernel or some settings? I dont want to go back to stock without trying to fix it.
[HTC Sensation] preficks:
Is this referring to 3.6.5 ? In 3.6.5 when I run Daemon Controller, and click bypass, there is no governor listing for Intellidemand.. I only see conservative, powersave, ondemand, and performance. Am I looking in the wrong place?
[HTC Sensation] antrax360:
am not using any o/c tools or governor. And yeah i just flashed the rom with the stock kernel. I downloaded that kernel and i have it on the sd card, so just wipe cache and dalvik and flash it?

---------- Post added at 10:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:38 PM ----------

ok so i just saw the deamon controller app, heres what it says,

wake state settings

wake min 384000

wake max 1512000,

wake gov ondemand.

sleep state settings

sleep min 192000

sleep max 384000

sleep gov conservative

apply cancel and bypass

---------- Post added at 10:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:45 PM ----------

when the phone is off theres no problem with the battery, the problem is when am using it. No matter what i do, texting, calling, checking my email. Every time i use the phone the battery decreases a lot. Like is not normal.
[HTC Sensation] akpe:
Flash the latest faux kernel, 0.2.4r, then wipe cache and dalvik and reboot.

Of course do a nandroid backup first, just in case!

After boot, go to daemon controller, click on bypass and set min 384 (or 192, I think it's ok...), max whatever you want (I have mine on 151, don't go above 156!) and intellidemand governor.

Bare in mind that since you just flashed a new rom, you may have to wait at least one or two days to see any improvements in battery. I flashed 3.6.5 on Saturday and it took me two days and two to three full cycles (discharge until >5%, fully recharge) to see any noticeable improvements.

If you decide to stick with faux kernel, you can also try to use fauxclock instead of daemon controller.
[HTC Sensation] abuserkadayf:
hey guys got a quick question,

i just flashed 3.6.5 with the latest faux kernel.. and everyone one is recommending the intelligence governor, but i cant see it anywhere ??
[HTC Sensation] akpe:
Click the bypass button in Daemon Controller (bottom of the screen) and it should switch to just 3 drop-down boxes (without screen on/off profiles), those are min, max and governor.

You should see intellidemand on governor drop-down :D
[HTC Sensation] jhobert:
So far for me im using arhd 3.6.2 with bricked 0.91 kernel, battery is good last me 12-14 hrs light to moderate use, so far ive tried the new roms but i always ended up goin back to these combination since these combination gives me less problems lol.. hope this info helps
[HTC Sensation] antrax360:
i dont see the intellidemand governor, theres only 4 options there, conservative, powersave, ondemand and performance

---------- Post added at 11:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:01 PM ----------

did u ever try 3.6.5 with 0.2.4r?
[HTC Sensation] jhobert:
Yes i did tried that combination, but theres a few glitches on my phone when i use it like signal instability, screen freezing and have to do a battery pull and im sure theres a lot of ways to fix those glitches but i use my phone at work a lot so i need stability, thats why i always ended up going back to what serves me better. But honestly im also tempted to try the new roms and kernels.
[HTC Sensation] akpe:
Hmm you don't see it on the list even before you click bypass?
[HTC Sensation] antrax360:
i do too, i need my phone to be as stable as possible cuz i use my phone for work thats why battery life is killing me now.

---------- Post added at 11:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:19 PM ----------

nope just those 4 options i mentioned before, maybe i have an older version of daemon controller, it says version 2.21 beta 1
[HTC Sensation] preficks:
Neither before nor after clicking bypass...

Same Daemon Controller here... 2.21 beta 1.. was installed with 3.6.1 ROM...
[HTC Sensation] antrax360:
doesn't show up no matter what
[HTC Sensation] jhobert:
Why not try my combination first for a day or so and see , anyways theres no harm on trying and u can always go upgrade to a newer version if you dont like my combination. Like now, i unpluged my phone 5hrs ago and im still on 78% with atleast 60mins++ on calls and not to mention facebook, gmail and internet browsing.
[HTC Sensation] antrax360:
i selected the conservative mode, is there much difference? I did notice a difference on speed, cuz before i touched this it was on ondemand.

---------- Post added at 11:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:24 PM ----------

omg thats great ima try that let me just play with the daemon controller see if that solves my issue. If not ill def give it a try, so i gotta superwipe and then flash right
[HTC Sensation] akpe:
You guys have flashed faux 0.2.4r, right? :P

I don't have my phone here atm but intellimand is only implemented into the latest versions of faux's kernel, not the version included in rom.

I'll let someone else have a go on this until I get my phone back :D In the meantime you could try different setups to see which one gives you best battery life. :)
[HTC Sensation] antrax360:
i got 3.6.5 maybe thats why.
[HTC Sensation] jhobert:
I always want to start fresh so I recommend you do superwipe then flash.
[HTC Sensation] antrax360:
yes stock kernel with the 3.6.5 rom, i just selected the conservative mode, lets see if that helps me

---------- Post added at 11:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:31 PM ----------

excuse me but where could i find that kernel u are using?
[HTC Sensation] preficks:
We both have 3.6.5... My copy of Daemon Controller 2.21 beta 1 was originally installed under 3.6.1 and remained when I flashed 3.6.5.

Ok, I just flashed 0.2.4b7 and I now have the Intellidemand option.. hopefully this helps with battery drain because i'm losing about 1% a minute not doing anything on the phone..

Should the defaults be kept on the bypass screen? Min 384000 and Max 1512000 ?

Interestingly enough, after flashing 0.2.4b7 the Weather & News widget suddenly started showing weather info again. It worked perfectly in 3.6.1 with default kernel.. stopped working in 3.6.5 with default kernel.. now with 0.2.4b7 it's working again..

EDIT: The stuttery responsiveness on the lock screen seems to be gone now too... fingers crossed...
[HTC Sensation] akpe:
Oh, my bad, forgot to mention before that you need to flash the latest kernel to get intellidemand :D

Give it a try, if you get the same behaviour change kernels. Best ones are bricked and faux.

Also, some say that you do not need a full calibration after changing kernel, just charge to 100% and wipe stats, although I always calibrate just to be sure.
[HTC Sensation] antrax360:
how do u calibrate the battery? so should i flash 0.2.4r with 3.6.5?
[HTC Sensation] tony yayo:
Really not understanding here. People report that the battery is getting killed and people say, change the kernel, change this, turn off sync, turn off that, auto brightness, blah blah blah. My suggestion is mike should check what he has changed since, say, 3.6.1, and figure out where the problem is. There is no reason I should have to change my setup to have less usable features than I had before, at an attempt to save battery life. I've tried the kernel that was included with the rom for a day, battery died in 7 hours. Bricked kernel was longer but not by a whole lot. My battery in the middle of me sleeping last night decided to start draining twice as fast! Why? An unused phone should not start draining double for no reason. All I'm saying is that there is something wrong and I wish people would stop blaming the kernels or sync or push notifications or whatever and figure out what it is because I should absolutely get more than 14 hours WITH Juice Defender when I was getting over a day with heavy usage a week ago.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining just putting my thoughts out there. There is DEFINITELY a problem somewhere, there are too many complaints, from too many different people, with too many different setups. How many hundreds of more posts do I have to read about battery life before people get tired of it and stop using mike's roms and faux's kernels altogether? There has to be some kind of tweak or change that was made that isn't working out. Let's fix this and move on.

I do appreciate all the hard work the devs do and have supported them since I've started using android. I am in no way knocking on the devs or their hard work, it is very much appreciated. I'm just trying to look out for you guys before your followers turns elsewhere. Let's get ARHD back to being the best Sensation rom out there. Thanks for listening.
[HTC Sensation] BladeKnight:
download the newest bricked kernel and install it...:D
[HTC Sensation] akpe:
Take a look here.

What I do, for a full calibration is this.

1) Use my phone down to ~5% battery left. Some say until it shuts off but I doubt that's needed.

2) Charge without stop until 100% and let it on charger at least an hour after green light lights up.

3) Use battery calibrator from market to delete battery stats.

4) -Without unplugging the phone, power down (make sure fastboot is disabled in settings -> power options)

5) Leave it on charger for about another hour

6) Boot up the device.

Well 0.2.4r works perfectly for me, both great performance and battery life. :)

You can always try and if not happy, change to bricked. :)

You have a point there, but with my (small) experience with the Sensation, every rom I have tried (both 2.3.4/s3.0 and 2.3.5/s3.5) suffered from some kind of battery drain.

I'm not saying roms are perfect and we all have to blame htc, since I've got absolutely zero experience and haven't tried 2.3.1, but I believe this has more to do with the ****ty battery driver by htc (causing improper readings and the infamous battery jumping) than those roms themselves. I may be wrong but oh well :)
[HTC Sensation] tony yayo:
Again, its blamed on something other than the rom? Now it's htc's fault? If it was a ****ty battery driver than why was it so much better on 3.6.1? If they have changed something I doubt they would have purposely made something worse. Things were changed between then and now. One or more of them are making the battery life worse than before. Let's figure out what it is and fix it instead of blaming who or what ever!
[HTC Sensation] antrax360:
Well 0.2.4r works perfectly for me, both great performance and battery life. :)

You can always try and if not happy, change to bricked. :)

is this the name of that kernel just to be sure lol (Pyramid-Kernel-024r-N-CM7-1.73GHz)

---------- Post added at 12:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:05 AM ----------

is it working?
[HTC Sensation] akpe:
The one I flashed is Pyramid-Kernel-024r-N-sense-1.56GHz.zip :)
[HTC Sensation] antrax360:
where did u get this? cuz the ones that am seeing have the cm7 name so i dont wanna do something stupid lol. Also do to a nandroid back up, just hit backup on cwm?
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
024r-CM7 is for Cyanogen Mod

024r-N is for Rest but is no longer released.
[HTC Sensation] akpe:
The one you got is for cm with an overclock to 1.7ghz, not recommended lol :D

Here is the kernel for sense as posted by sp5it on post #29460

Exactly :)
[HTC Sensation] preficks:
The one I flashed is Pyramid-Kernel-024b7-N-sense-1.56GHz and it seems to be working well so far.. Still watching it though... The 1.73GHz in your file seems to me that it would be an overclocked version, but someone here can chime in on that.

I'm not sure where I read it, but I distinctly remember reading on this forum that the 024b7 and 024r are exactly the same, so either should work.
[HTC Sensation] rddocke:
results for set up

Here are the battery results in the attached photo

I am running 3.6.5 with faux 2.4b7

CPU set at 1152 MHz max on intellidemand.(edit: thought it was intelli actually ondemand DOH!! Could've sworn I changed it) Well wanted to test intelli but guess ill show results tomorrow for that... Anyways on with the results...

mV set to -50 and gpu to 33.

No force closes no glitches. I will say I'm thinking of bumping up the clock a little. Apps seem a little slow and scrolling on the browser seems a tad laggy. I'm usually on 1.78 all the time.

Using faux clock 0.6.1 (anybody have an upgrade ? Jw)

Just wanted to say, faux123, great job with this kernel. I'm pleased with this one and I believe I will be changing my signature. I love the fact that you have taken the initiative to improve yet another aspect of the kernel by developing your own govanor. Regardless of the bricked/faux back and forth on here and everywhere else sensation related. I believe you both have excellent knowledge of the technology and I can only say that competition inspires creativity. Thank you again.
[HTC Sensation] antrax360:
this is why i love xda. people are always helping each other, see if i didnt ask i wouldve flashed that kernel lol. Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!
[HTC Sensation] akpe:
Latest version is 0.7.5 although I've been getting some FCs and there are some bugs if you enable a different screen-off profile.

BTW what are the risks (if any) to undervolting by let's say -25mV?

I've been thinking to try it out but I'm worried a bit :D
[HTC Sensation] antrax360:
where do the backups go to, the clockworkmod folder? by mistake i created two backups and i wanna erase one.
[HTC Sensation] Trek55:
Yes and inside backup..
[HTC Sensation] antrax360:
there are two folders though, advance and backup, i was looking all the options on the cwm, and i went to the advance option and i created a backup thu there. Is it safe to delete both of this folders or are there any files inside the clockworkmod folder that are needed for cwm to work properly. I think is safe for me to erase them since that folder was created right when i did the first backup right
[HTC Sensation] rddocke:
ah "thanks" for the update, ill try it out see if i have any luck with it.

you know i notice that i get better battery life and a cooler phone when i undervolt to

-50 i believe it come into play when you really push your phone. like playing games, listening to music as your browse, long phone calls ect, when doing these things and your undervolted to a certain extent, it should cause performance decrease i believe. i mostly just browse and text so my phone is pretty much a slouch. ;) im not positive on the effects of undervolting particularly, i only can speak on my personal observations.

Anyone want to touch on this?

---------- Post added at 10:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:02 PM ----------

you can delete those files if you want. the advanced folder was created when you did the backup through the advnaced. you dont really need to create a back up through advanced option. just stick with backup and your file will be in the backup folder in clockworkmod folder.if you rename do not add spaces in the names. this causes md5sums to react funny and your backup will not restore until the name is changed.

i need to go back to stock to find out what the h e double hockey sticks is going on with my phone and then come back to 3.6.5.no matter what anyone says it is not my battery and i should not be using 50-98 mah per 5mns when the phone is not being used.ive tried every combo of rom,kernel,radio and ril and again it is not my battery it has something to do with the rom.As i stated 2xs i put my battery in my wifes phone when i got sick of losing so much battery and my battery ran normal as it should in hers,which is the same phone i had bought on same date.

can someone please tell me if i go to the newest stock rom from the U.S.A which is where i live,will i lose my eng s-off radio s-off,my clockwork recovery etc....it says it updates the hboot back to 1.8 and not 1.7 which is what my phone changed to when it went enf s-off. If you don't get what im asking please just ask me to tell you clearer as i am just a little boggled right now as my battery is not working right with any possible option on this site.As i said my phone fly's with 3.6.5 but i would rather have more battery and a stock phone that ran somewhat decent without 3.6.5.the rom says it is stripped down but with the newest radio and newest hboot,with busybox,and there is an odexed and a deodexed version.any help please.I know this might be alot to read but i am dying here without a phone that lasts more than 4-5 hrs without barely any use.
[HTC Sensation] antrax360:
Omg my batter just jumped fron 70 to 60 in less than 5 mins just browsing the web. I flashed the 0.2.4r kernel and set the daemon tool with the intellidemand option. My last resource is to calibrate my battery.
[HTC Sensation] smallKING81:
mike1986,

Why after flashing to ARHD 3.6.5 my downanimation doesn't work?
[HTC Sensation] SiPiNwItMyDrOiD:
Yep,and have fun when everyone tells you to flash all this stuff and your battery sits at 100% for 8 hrs and you think it's the most amazing thing in the world.then you make a call or use the market or any data for 2mns and your phone drops from 100% all the way down to 30%.i have been told to calibrate my battery after installing the rom and then in 2hrs later the same person told someone else not to calibrate the battery as mikes rom does it for you,and they were using 3.6.5 just like me.Real nice instructions going on.I wish i was just friends with this mike guy in real life so he could teach me how to be as smart as himself so i wouldnt have to bother people with question.Cause thats what it seems.My posts may be a little long for everyone but wouldn't you like to have a more clear explanation and have all the info right there in front of you so you can answer back without saying hey you didnt mention this,and whats this setting.SORRY IF IT SEEMS LIKE IM A PISSED PRICK EVERYONE,I JUST LOVE HOW FAST THIS ROM IS BUT THE BATTERY IS KILLING ALOT OF US.Which i know is a already known thing so im just yelling to myself in the woods i guess
[HTC Sensation] akpe:
Well AFAIK the calibration script does the calibration only once, the first time you reach 100% after flashing. After that, you need to do it manually. ;)
[HTC Sensation] BioTecK:
Cool... Will definitely try this! =)

[HTC Sensation] gapper100:
Hey Mike,

Since Faux has stopped developing for Sensation ( :( ), I was wondering: Do you still have version 024 available on your PC? And would it comply with GPL if you released it as part of a ROM-update? I'm running 024r right now and it's amazing, easily the best kernel I've ever had... Would be a shame if it just disappeared!

Edit: Or you could just find it on "the other site", luckily it's still there :)
[HTC Sensation] Gitarrenschlumpf:
I am really happy with ARHD 4.1.6 and faux-kernel 2.4.Beta7. Smooth, fast and NO battery problems. 38 hours with a lot of wlan. :)
