have we had another fw update ive missed all im getting with 6.55 is boot loops even aftear full wipe ?

reverted back to 6.54
[HTC Sensation] Toxicology:
Just flashed 6.5.5 over 6.5.4 - this time with faux-kernel....got a bootloop :(

Md5 was ok!
[HTC Sensation] icematrix:
Me too Bottoloop with Faux Kernel :(

I have reflash with stock no problem ;)

MD5 is OK
[HTC Sensation] Toxicology:
That's what I will do next...->flashing Stock again!;)
[HTC Sensation] BioTecK:
I have the same issue when choosing Faux's kernel. I've double checked MD5 and that's all good! Will try to see if the same happens with Sebastian's Kernel. ;) Thank god I made a backup first! :D
[HTC Sensation] Jihell76:
Impossible to boot with faux's kernel, so I chose sebastian's one and it worked :)
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
ok seems like everyone is having some faux kernel issues, kernel alone for me on previous ARHD is fine.

for anyone who is wanted to get faux kernel working, try downloading the kernel alone and flashing that from Faux's Thread.

direct link to kernel is HERE

see if that helps...

im at work now so cant flash anything :(
[HTC Sensation] drakexpl:
Flashed 6.5.5 with stock + bricked as always (0.55b2) - everything works brilliant... as always :D
[HTC Sensation] X46X:
I have bootloop too with Faux - wiped cache and davlink, fix permissions - bootloop still here. I try Sebs now..
[HTC Sensation] BioTecK:
Same here! ;)

I had 6.5.4 running with 002m and that worked well. Most probably flashing the kernel alone should be ok. I'll test this and report back! ;)

After this I'll test the 003b1! :D

EDIT: Flashing Faux's kernel separately is possible without any problems! Now up to flashing the 003b1! :D:D
[HTC Sensation] JethroCl:
Here too bootloop with faux123 kernel.
[HTC Sensation] Toxicology:
Reflashed 6.5.5 with Stock and it works! And finally the "page-per-page"-Scroll in the app-list is back :p Now I'm power-testing 655 :D
[HTC Sensation] B-Man2005:
can someone tell me what was wrong with systemui.apk ?

i had no problems !
[HTC Sensation] X46X:
How I flashed it? Like ROM or like PG58IMG?
[HTC Sensation] Gitarrenschlumpf:
same here: Bootloop on faux kernel. Stock and sebastians kernel are okay.
[HTC Sensation] Toxicology:
in 6.5.4 there was no statusbar and black wallpaper for some reasons...but it seems it was only while flashing 6.5.4 after superwipe - without superwipe everything was fine...well but wifi-/3g-selfwake was still there.

Like Rom via recovery!
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
flashing faux kernel alone seems to solve it, not sure if its an issue with kernel included in rom.

direct link to kernel is HERE

download and flash and that should give u faux's kernel ;)
[HTC Sensation] Pikaraph:
Same here : bootloop with Faux kernel choice (md5 check OK)

It runs great with defaults kernel.
[HTC Sensation] sunshine4xxxx:
Same here.
[HTC Sensation] Kyutu:
Confirmed bootloop with Faux Kernel option selected, so promptly visited the handy links to Faux thread and followed the given instructions (people take note!) and flashed it separately and hey presto! works like a charm.

Now time to test :)

Many thanks to both Mike & team and Faux123.

Also thanks to Hawke84 for the links.
[HTC Sensation] BioTecK:
Just a question to one who flashed Sebastian's kernel: Are you able to under clock the CPU with System Tuner Pro? I can under clock but it doesn't stick and as soon as I reboot, it goes up to 1.56Ghz automatically.
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
just like a rom, flash in recovery
[HTC Sensation] X46X:
Thank you guys, I flashed faux after ROM and it works like a charm ;)
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
good ok thanks for the feedback, i'll contact mike to update the rom
[HTC Sensation] acesabe:
Which Kernel

Aside from bootloop issues related to 1st release of 6.5.5, which kernel are people choosing and why are you choosing it? I'm guessing that for most people it's just a lottery, or they see someone say "X's kernel rocks" so choose it. Presumably the most important thing is battery life and performance, so which kernel is better; Faux or Sebastian?
[HTC Sensation] is128ae:
From the 6.5.4 ROM on (I noticed it yesterday, but flashed it last monday from 6.5.3 to 6.5.4) the ROOT permission is gone....

Is there an option to get it back, or can I just use the known S-OFF (etc) methode without a problem ?
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
faux kernel all the way, he does some really good work. id suggest trying this first and if its not stable enough for you or you down like, work backwards towards stock, so sebs, then the htc one
[HTC Sensation] PurePlaguez:
Had the boot loop after flashing to ARHD 6.5.5 and choosing the Faux kernel.

Went back into recovery and flashed Faux V002 kernel manually, boot loop is fixed.

Phone is running like a charm again :D
[HTC Sensation] cyberde:
Same, then I flashed faux123 v002 and no more bootloops.
[HTC Sensation] X46X:
I choose stock kernel and after flash ROM, I flashed Faux :D
[HTC Sensation] sunshine4xxxx:
First SebastianFM Second with Faux123 Kernel :)
[HTC Sensation] Toxicology:
Damn...never knew that different Kernel would bring that huge increase!!!:eek: How about battery life with Faux?
[HTC Sensation] adicken:
Anyone know where to get some good skins from that are comaptable with this Rom?

Cheers
[HTC Sensation] Toxicology:
Btw...which app did you use for that test?

Dunno exactly...but shouldn't you better ask here:

http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1113

I guess the theme depends on Sense-Version??!!
[HTC Sensation] sunshine4xxxx:
we will see :)
[HTC Sensation] mac87:
were you with the same cpu frequency ??

because sebastiean's seems much more better in 2d , 3d and memory

but faux has a very good cpu score (and so overall score)

a comparison with same max frequiencies should be great and IMHO better for SFM kernel

I only flash faux123 Kernel
[HTC Sensation] Toxicology:
Thx mate for the link!!
[HTC Sensation] adicken:
Cheers. Just thought some users may have a good idea.
[HTC Sensation] mac87:
faux has a max frequency of 1.7 GHz

and SFM has several versions with differents frequencies

the SFM kernel included in ARHD rom is the 1.5ghz one

so this explain the differents cpu scores

but your results show very good results for 2d, 3d and memory for SFM kernel

so thats why i think if you test the 1.7ghz version of SFM you will have a better score than faux kernel (1.7GHz)

(for this benchmark)

i'll try to do the test

EDIT : in fact, on youre SFM kernel test, the second cpu seems to be inactivated

is this the 1.30.4 version?

because with my SFM 1.30.2 version (max 1.5ghz) and arhd 6.5.2

I beat the 2 scores

i have 3568 total, cpu 6350 mem 3040 io 5673 2d 495 3d 2281
[HTC Sensation] HorstDCC:
me too, same situation
[HTC Sensation] cwk_and:
Seem the I/O scheduler had been changed to deadline.

But issit the deadline is better than cfq scheduler??:confused:
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
For people having boot loops when selecting faux's kernel when flashing ARHD 6.5.5 do the following to fix and give you faux kernel:

- download faux latest release kernel (link below)

- flash ARHD 6.5.5 choose stock or sebs kernel

- before first boot immediatly flash faux kernel

Direct link to kernel is HERE
[HTC Sensation] sunshine4xxxx:
The First Benchmark i do after flash 6.5.5 with SFM Kernel come with 6.5.5 xe Rom (After Bootloops with Faux123)

The Second after i flash Faux123 Kernel over SFM Kernel.
[HTC Sensation] mulletcutter:
I was rocking faux with 6.5.4 and battery life was great, I underclocked it to 1.3 and a 1900 battery
[HTC Sensation] Toxicology:
Hmm...guess I've found a bug?!! Right now I'm on 6.5.5 with Stockkernel.

I use HTC-3G-Switch to turn on/off my data-connection...since 655 when turning it ON my networkcon crushes and takes about 5 secs to reconnect again. The same happens when turning it OFF:confused:

Any suggestions?
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
Update - ROM Cleaner v3.5, Backup Tool v1.6

For Sense 4.0+ ROMs we will release ROM Cleaner v4.0 once it's tested enough

Backup Tool v1.6

-Improvements to the updater-script. The backup process should now be faster and safer.

-Added support for SmartBeat Supremacy XL ROMs

Enjoy guys! :D

Psst! Beta section is updated as well... ;)​
[HTC Sensation] jkolner:
If on 6.5.4, and its working 100% is there any reason or gain of upgrading to 6.5.5?
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
First time in a while, I'll be skipping and update.

Already fixed SystemUI.

Already running later (and better) version of Faux's kernel (003b1) with Zram. Smooth, fast and slick. Battery is excellent as well.

Already updated Google Maps.

Different scheduler is minor, I'm happy now. If I want to, I can change scheduler myself.

No flash for me today!! :p
[HTC Sensation] rwleigh:
Do you have the checksum for that please?
[HTC Sensation] Rainico:
Who is the kernel faux ? 1.5Ghz or 1.6 Ghz ?

Z Ram is activate ?
[HTC Sensation] therealbroxy:
I really need to come on here and read some posts before restoring my nandroids and then applying 6.5.5 and sticking with stock rom

I will try your suggestion later, thanks!
[HTC Sensation] Jump1ng:

[HTC Sensation] Rainico:
Okay very thx i flash this kernel :)
[HTC Sensation] Toxicology:

[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
sorry no cant find an MD5 for original file..

[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
Sorry for this bootloop with faux kernel, easy fix should be to remove init.qcom.post_boot.sh from kernels\faux\system\etc and flash.

Strange issues, since 6.5.0 the alarm clock bugs awfully alot.

Changing each alarm fixes it temporarily.

Really strange.
[HTC Sensation] grega_slo:
Weird issue with:

6.5.4 and 6.5.5

I use Sebastians kernel...

When I want to reboot my device it just won`t. Touch keys led is on but it won`t shutdown or reboot?

Any idea?
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
Of course you're forgiven. Nobody treats us better than you and the ARHD team!

What was that, like five updates in two weeks? Who does that?

Plus, you're doing that for a dozen platforms, all the while remaining as charming and helpful as a tour guide!

Props.

Been using the alarm ok one all 6.5.x versions might be a bad flash, why not update to the latest version and see if it fixes your issues with the alarm clock.

I have flash 4 x 6.5.5 and reboot with Kernel faux and after flash kernel stock it's good ;)

[HTC Sensation] Nekromantik:
no one replied to me question.

does the fix in the new ROM for wifi auto turn on work?

one guy said it dont work other said it does so conflicting opinions.
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
The problem is phones are like snow flakes. No two setups are alike. So it may work for one person and nit the next. Same way some people can use the 3.32 firmware and others have to use 3.12 because the hboots don't want to be compatible.

6.5.4 still have this issue, assuming that 6.5.5 have only systemUI.apk updated it will also have that bug.

Well HTC have really p***d me off with the new base.

It was working fine on the non final base so why mess it up.

Hi Mike, what do you know about USB OTG? our chipset supports it, and we have the .libusbhost file, also I found something in /data/d/msm_otg/aca, with the text as 'disabled' I'd donate £5 if you could get it working, (about $8) please Mike, would be greatly appreciated, and I know we'd need to use an external power source for HDDs and other because the Sensation hasn't got the power out support

Many thanks :)
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
Surely they removed smith.apk which I always used to remove anyway because it's sniffing tool.
[HTC Sensation] simplytheone:
ask faux he write to this question:

I do believe USB OTG is something that the kernel devs control (only reason I say that is there are posts on all the kernel threads about it and not so much the rom devs)

Best battery life for me was going back toARHD 6.5.3 XE and sebastianFm 1.30.3 (after an 1.30.4 kernel) and i hope that future roms and kernels will be ok for battery life.

Thanks Mike! :D
[HTC Sensation] Globus.gd:
OK, maybe someone know is there a possibility to "sniff" what is (what app or system prog) responsible for switching wifi/3g?

Can I make something like log file over the night what Sensation is doing that time and analyse it later?

Is it even possible?
[HTC Sensation] kripwalk:
Whoa is it just me or when I put in any password it automatically accepts it as its correct.
[HTC Sensation] Lennydk87:
Damn this Rom is fast BLAZINGLY fast (as HTC said it should be :P )

I only got one problem left:

When I restart the phone, lots of the apps on the SD card is illustrated with a Android icon, and not the original icon.

But I've always had this problem, but I thought 2.3.4 fixed this, but I guess it did'nt.

By the way: will upcoming kernel offer cifs, tun and utf8?

Also when I adjust the ringer volume the popup says "no %" insead of "ring volume" and some text in the quick settings menu is messed up.
[HTC Sensation] phonepersonality:
Password into what?
[HTC Sensation] phonepersonality:
It's possible the recommended radio posted on the OP might be incorrect.

Check your radio settings to see if you have a 10.56.... radio. If you have a 10.43... or a 10.50... radio, you'll need to flash the proper one.

I posted a link a few pages back.
[HTC Sensation] kripwalk:
You know I just love this. Now I dont regret my decision of superwiping it just to get to 2.1.0. There is really a HUGE difference. But one problem is that most my apps crash when I try to open them. Im posetive it doesnt have to do anything with the rom. Does it have to do with the update from 2.3.3 to 2.3.4?
[HTC Sensation] jonata:
I think that he say that if un app is stored on sd and not in phone memory, when reboot the phone see a green android and not real icon of the app.

it's happen when move un app from phone to sd card .... (this for to have more memory free)
[HTC Sensation] phonepersonality:
Dude! Details. Details. Details! LoL.

How did you load your apps?

Did you install them from the market or from backup?

If you installed from backup, what kind of backup software and what kind of backup process?

We needs to know :)
[HTC Sensation] phonepersonality:
Did you do a super wipe before installing 2.1 and/or did you do a restore using Titanium Backup bootup?

Backup. Titanium backup. Restored Apps + Data

I did do a superwipe. I restored my apps with titanium backup after I installed Android Revolution 2.1.0. The text errors are there even before I restore apps.
[HTC Sensation] ikhtiaralam:
So, the thread title says O/C but I'm confused on how to get O/C on here. There aren't any custom kernels.
[HTC Sensation] phonepersonality:
I'm kinda paranoid.

I do a superwipe and then I do a factory wipe and a cache + dalvik cache wipe before I flash a new ROM.

Give that a whirl and hope for the best.
