OK, then I think I know the problem. Another user had it some days ago:

Somehow your ROM thinks you have Beats. I have not found out exactly why, cause it happened to me also once. But I think it (with "it" i don't mean Beats itself, but the entry of Beats in the sound enhancement list) comes with a mod, because after I wiped and reflashed the ROM from scratch without any mods it was gone.

Problem consists of the phone trying to start Beats when connected to the headphones and of course failing, cause it's not there.

The other user solved the problem simply with installing the Beats mod. After that the players worked flawlessly. There should be a link to that Beats mod in Post #2. I'd give it a try.

Make a nandroid first and then flash Beats mod.

Other option, found out by yet another user:

Go into Musicplayer, press the Menu-Button, "Sound Enhancement" (Or whatever it is called in an english rom), and disable Beats Audio.

4.1.8

Good morning Mike

Awesome. Thank you again for another great ROM.

Nothing to complain about so far. Really really cool :D

Greetz,

Try dropbox link (you need dropbox account).
[HTC Sensation] Rolando88:
Thanks for the update Mike!, will get my phone back tomorrow/ max day after from repairment.. hope i can enjoy from it longer now then 3 days ghehe
[HTC Sensation] code_monkey74:
Noticed something strange. Flashed 4.1.8 over 4.1.7, add a few mods, everything is perfect and super smooth. I check my software version and it says 4.1.7 again. No big deal since everythings perfect....just found that odd.
[HTC Sensation] evotion:
I tried both links via Chrome, IE and Firefox... but it won't load. Weird...
[HTC Sensation] Iosif1985:
I installed the v5 of the beats and HTC music suddenly started to play music :)

Now I put the PowerAmp to an extensive test :)

But this is bull**** because I don't use HTC music for one simple reason when I pull the headphones out I do not want that people arround me hear music from my phone, and PowerAmp does something even cooler then that, when I plug in my headphones resumes the playback :)
[HTC Sensation] ntonzrockz:
+1 here

me too buddy

did we flash it correctly??

:confused:
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
Probably you flashed some mod with old buils.prop
[HTC Sensation] -Andyoid-:
Did the same, but it shows 4.1.8 as it should here. :)
[HTC Sensation] digimac:
On 3.6.8 is was the Sony Bravia Engine mod that changed my arhd version back from 3.6.8 to 3.6.7

I found out by re-flashing and doing my mods one at a time until I found the one causing it.

I see Sony Bravia Engine is available for 4.1.8 as well so that might be the culprit
[HTC Sensation] likuku:
Very appreciate your work Mike.This rom have a great battery life like you've told.
[HTC Sensation] myxcon:
Just installed 4.1.8 with superwipe but forgot to save the messages. Is there anyway to restore the messages (sms') from a nandroid?
[HTC Sensation] evotion:
I don't get how others can download it and I can't?! Grrrr... I cleared my cache and everything but neither of the links work! HELPPPPPP
[HTC Sensation] myxcon:
Provider problems maybe? Try copying it to your dropbox account and it will autodownload to your pc, provided you use dropbox.
[HTC Sensation] TheUntouchable:
What was the workaround for missing contact pictures in whatsapp and co again?

tried chmod 600 /data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/files/*

But this didnt fix anything.
[HTC Sensation] myxcon:
If in terminal u have $ type su first to get root access. Then it will show # -> means you have root

then do the chmod 666 /data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/files/*

But I do believe there is an issue with whatsapp and sense 3.5 as it does not display the contact picture. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
[HTC Sensation] TheUntouchable:
Thanks for your reply, but you may be right. This doestn fix the problem too.. Sad :(

Superuser (error message on opening with AR HD 1.1.6)

Hello Mike and All

First of all gotta say, this is a fantastic ROM

Now my problem - Using ROM manager - CMW i first ran superwipe and then installed the 1.1.6 ROM

After first installation, everytime I go into superuser, I get a message straight away saying application Superuser has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.

I have tried swtiching off the phone and taking the battery out and then back i and restarting the phone - still get error message

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Nik
[HTC Sensation] joshua:
Go to settings - manage applications - tab "all" scroll to superuser n clear data...

Its been mention lotsa time...
[HTC Sensation] tabuburn:
Go to Settings<Applications<Manage Applications<Superuser<Clear Data<Reboot
[HTC Sensation] Nikesh1980:

Thanks tabuburn and Joshua

Actually I should apologise, I should have searched the forum first before asking as the issue has been addressed many times already.

Sorry my bad

guys i tried to change d downanimation but i dnt get d downanimation its jus a black screen wen i restart or switch off d mobile anything can b done?
[HTC Sensation] Defectus:
Loving this rom mate! Im on 1.1.5 no-sense & oc deamon with stock speed. But lately my phone just turns itself of, causing app data cottuption etc. Could this be HW related or just rom related?
[HTC Sensation] joshua:
Hey no worries... Dun need to apologise mate...

Cheers n tat shld solve ur superuser FC
[HTC Sensation] tabuburn:
No problem, mate.

Though just for laughs watch this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JmvCpR45LKA&list=FLvzwa14-wtyA&index=1
[HTC Sensation] joshua:
Where did u place the downanimation.zip?

Try putting in /system/customise/resources
[HTC Sensation] tabuburn:
You need to change its permissions.

Use Root Explorer or ES File Explorer hold down on the downanim file then choose Permissions and:

Owner: check only Read & Write

Group: check only Read

Others: Check only read
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
Well the bull**** sits in one mod, but have not found out which one yet. You could wipe, flash rom, and you'd see that that beats thing isn't there anymore. Then after some nadroid install mod after mod and always check. If that's worth it for you :p.

But it's NOT the ROMs fault, cause with pure ROM, the problem is not there.
[HTC Sensation] omida100:
I have the Sensation with Revolution HD 3.6.8 XE since last night (had the 3.6.7) and it's working smooth and fast till now ... my problem is how can I THANK somebody ??? I learned so much from the XDA people and I never found the THANK U button ...

Thank u MIKE ur the BEST !!!

found the BUTTON !!!!

[HTC Sensation] Iosif1985:
Thanks a lot for your help, I am not dieing if I install beats after the ROM, it doesn't bother me, and I didn't said that is your fault, I said is a bull**** that needs beats to let me play music or else shuts itself down :). Beats sounds great, but it can only be used with HTC music, that is sad :)
[HTC Sensation] haruryu:
Hi, I installed this but i cant find the option in the ROM to turn it OFF. where is this option?

thanks!
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
Well it wouldn't be MY fault anyways :D, cause the ROM's not from me, lol. I agree with you that it's not satisfactory, so it would be even more interesting which mod brings that problem. I saw you came from 3.6.7. That ROM has Beats. Have you by chance restored system data with Titanium Backup after going to 4.1.8?
[HTC Sensation] Catnap:
Bottom-right of each post, the big "THANKS" button :P
[HTC Sensation] Bildi13:

[HTC Sensation] Iosif1985:
Yes, I restored, but only User App+Data, I never restore System Data, but in the same time I backed up and restored with My Backup all my system settings, Android Home, sms, call logs etc.

BTW: How can I backup my wifi networks ?
[HTC Sensation] bazji:
Just went from 3.6.7 to 4.1.8

Awsome mike, never tried your 4 series Roms before, but this is a keeper :-)

Very fast and smooth, Installed the Rom + no sense script and Rom cleaner and the phone is flying,

Can anyone recommend some mods for this Rom. I usually install the 20mbs camera mod but this has it already.

Great work mike another donation on its way mate.

Regards

Barry
[HTC Sensation] myxcon:
2 options :

1. with Backup Tool & Settings Restorer (check Patrics' Rom Cleaner Thread for these tools)

2. Check the backup this phone with google option and the networks will be restored when logged with your acc on the phone (after a wipe/reinstall/etc).
[HTC Sensation] skysamy:
Just download arhd 3.6.8, still a perfect work, thanx for all Mike.

[HTC Sensation] ukjm2k:
Hi,

Im on ARHD 4.1.7 with the Beats mod.

If I update to 4.1.8 (without superwipe), would I need to reinstall the Beats mod?
[HTC Sensation] Nucleotide:
1. Make a nand backup of current 4.1.8 rom.

2. Restore old nand 4.1.7.

3. Backup messages to SD card.

4. Restore 4.1.8 nand.

5. Restore messages from SD card.

This is how I would do it anyway. Not sure if there is a quicker/easier way. :)
[HTC Sensation] wmoore:
A couple of pages back somebody said it was the Sony Bravia mod that did it.
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
Well, I think that MyBackup could be the culprit. As that Beats-settings are sure some kind of system-setting, I think the restore of system-settings might have somehow implanted the idea of having beats into the System. Restoring system-settings with MyBackup and system-data with Titanium is the same in principle.

---------- Post added at 10:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:49 AM ----------

Yes, ALL Mods are gone after ROM-flashing ;)
[HTC Sensation] haruryu:
As far as I know: yes, you need to reinstall. because it overwrites the system files.
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
That's not right. The Bravia mod obviously changes the version number from 4.1.8 to 4.1.7. Has nothing to do with any "shown-but-not-installed" Beats
[HTC Sensation] Titanicology:
Hi Mike, is there a way where you can improve the audio quality when recording? If so, you're the best!
[HTC Sensation] Iosif1985:
Great, next time I flash a ROM I'll remember that (or I will just install Beats Mod :) ).

General question:

Any way to increase the mp3 playback volume ? (I specified mp3 to avoid confusion with ring volume)
[HTC Sensation] dorianborovina:
Good morning guys! :)

Gonna go now an flash a 3.6.8!!! :)

Cheers,and thanks to everybody!!! :)
[HTC Sensation] eps0r:
Done flashing 4.1.8, thx again \o/

looks smooth :)
[HTC Sensation] haruryu:
Hi

After installing 4.1.8 i installed the APM and CRT on/off zip files. but, it does not appear in the ROM. There is no APM and no CRT on/off option. why is this? maybe 418 does not support these files? any ideas?
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
Besides Settings-Sound(maybe Audio, have to translate that into english from my phone)-Volume where you can set 4 different volumes there is no way. If the max is to low for you, you'd have to use any amplifying app. But most of them do not work good.
[HTC Sensation] dr9722:
CRT animation works well for me on 4.1.8. Havent tried the APM yet though...
[HTC Sensation] Iosif1985:
The max volume for media volume is NOT very low, but a little louder would of been best :), my ****ty mp3 player with the same headphones was a little louder..And I am using the PreAmp bar in PowerAmp Equalizer.
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
What do you mean with "There is no option"? There was never an "option". If you install CRT it's there and makes the CRT effect when you switch the screen on and off. And it works well with 4.1.8.

So does APM. When you have installed it, the menu that comes when long-pressing the power-button is much more elaborate. That's what it always did, not more, not less ;)

You should of course use the versions for 4.1.x ROMs. You can find them in Post #2.
[HTC Sensation] killcreek:
Hi All,

1 Quick and noob question :confused:

Do i need to flash the recommended radio again after flashing 3.6.8.. Currently i am using 3.6.7.

Also i am facing an issue restoring apps from market. whenever i do a super wipe and install a fresh rom, my apps are not restored automatically from the market. I have to download everything manually..I have set all the required options under settings --> Privacy. But still no luck....
[HTC Sensation] gpat1:
What's is the great rom's

Hello,

What difference between 3.6.x and 4.1.x EXCEPT the kernel 1.73 vs 2048?

the sensation std accepts many of the rom XE? you it wins in perf and sensitivity?

and what is the best of both? I have 4.1.7 and I I am hesitant to test the second still has full control again and re-install my apps.

thank you in advance for your answers objective.:):o
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
Yes, it's a well known fact that Sensation has a very low audio volume. Nothing we can do about it but over-amplify.

---------- Post added at 11:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:26 AM ----------

Radio is not affected by ROM-flashing, so, NO, you don't need to reflash radio.
[HTC Sensation] Nucleotide:
No, radio should stay the same. :)

Edit: Beaten by jotha. :p
[HTC Sensation] Iosif1985:
Yeah but Sound booster was the only decent app I found, and was ****ty messing with the quality... Volume+ didn't helped me. Any opther suggestions from someone for amplyfing the audio playback ?
[HTC Sensation] Nucleotide:
I've decided to stick with 4EXT Recovery this time around instead of reinstalling CWM - I even purchased it from the Market. There is an option within 4EXT to Use tar backups.

Is there any advantage to using tar backups? I think CWM used tar backups, yes/no?

I've also noticed that 4EXT seems to create its backups in the clockworkmod folder on the sdcard. I would have thought it would create its own backup folder?
[HTC Sensation] haruryu:
Hi Jotha,

After 2 times installing APM i got it working. sorry about the CRT i didnt read it correctly.

Thanks anyway :)
[HTC Sensation] killcreek:
Thanks for the quick reply. any solution for my 2nd question >??

lso i am facing an issue restoring apps from market. whenever i do a super wipe and install a fresh rom, my apps are not restored automatically from the market. I have to download everything manually..I have set all the required options under settings --> Privacy. But still no luck....
[HTC Sensation] schnidex:
Thanks dude, nice to have some helpful knowledge.
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
The tar-backup and the fact that 4ext uses clockworkmod folder is due to the effort to stay fully compatible with CWM. In my eyes no visisble difference between the two backup formats. File sizes nearly the same.
[HTC Sensation] dr9722:
I just flashed 4.1.8 with stock kernel, amaze mod, crt mod, rosie mod and a UOT mod but now when I select Reboot from the power menu the phone just switches off. Any ideas what could be causing this?

Cheers.
[HTC Sensation] Iosif1985:
Can you please tell me what mods did you used to obtain the visual aspect from your signature please ?
[HTC Sensation] decebal12345:
I had same problem with 4.1.7 (and 4 mods) but with book reader (I tried 3 readers). After I cleared cache/ dalvik and installed 4.1.8 with no mods, now I have no problem.

Maybe if you try to find what mod create you the problem, after that you can find another mod.
[HTC Sensation] ivanh3:
That was me that had that problem and fixed it by installing Beats.

Now I have done a fresh install of 4.1.8 and the problem is gone. I did not have to install Beats this time to play videos/music with headphones.
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
4EXT is based on CWM, so that's why it puts backups into CWM folder.

tar backups are compatible with new features in Titanium Backup Pro which allow restoration of selected parts of a backup through Titanium. Google it.

P.
[HTC Sensation] ivanh3:
Not sure if this would make a difference or not, but did you flash all of those items at one time? I have had better luck just installing ROM and kernel, then letting that stabilize, and then going back to install mods.

My current install sequence is: recovery> superwipe> flash ROM> flash ROM cleaner> flash kernel (if different from ROM)> reboot>run set up wizard/install my apps (using TB and without system data)> reboot> fix permissions> reboot> nandroid backup (usually from ROM manager, but could also be done from recovery).

Sounds long but it is not, and then I have a very stable nandroid back up. At that point I can either add all of my mods or add mods one by one if I am trying to troubleshoot something. Also, I know you don't need to superwipe when there is not a new base, but I think you eliminate a lot of issues especially when trying to trouble shoot.
[HTC Sensation] oFcAsHeEp:
Ok, Now I can see the difference between a flash junkie and a normal person...

I'm glad to find out that I'm still a normal person... Found the 3.6.8 update yesterday by accident (was checking replies), downloaded, went to sleep and about to flash now, as I drink my coffee :D

And I stand amazed at the number of people pressing refresh at the first post, waiting for those few application version numbers to change :D

I mean, the new kernel was already out there, all the apps that were updated you could have updated yourself (or was done automatically by market), and I'm only anxious to see if the 3d rendering has noticably improved...rest was already there :)

Now...

Since I gave up on reading the last 20 pages since last night (read about 10), can someone summarize for me if there's anything noteworthy besides praise to the download finally popping up, a lot of "can't wait-s", or "4.1.7/3.6.7 worked fine, 4.1.8/3.6.8 doesn't work any more (because you did something wrong)"s? :D

Cheers!
[HTC Sensation] krps13:
Hey, Can I flash Amaze Camera Mod for 4.1.8 with faux123's kernel or have to flash the stock kernel first from Amaze Camera?
[HTC Sensation] myxcon:
I can use Amaze Camera with the faux kernel included in ARHD. I think just the ZSL doesn't work and maybe some other shooting modes.
[HTC Sensation] crunkin:
As far as I know: ZSL does not work. so all modes requiring this dont work neither. (Burst, Panorama (with this slide thing..) etc)

But camera itself is working. Altho I think I've read image quality wasnt as good as on stock camera?.. Or was that something else.. ;)
[HTC Sensation] mark1316:
Your right the stock camera is better IMHO

my 3.6.7 is working just fine, so I will wait a bit and see whats the haps. Thanks for the efforts though
[HTC Sensation] Iosif1985:
Can Stock Camera be restored ? Everybody that saw my pictures taken with Amaze Camera said that are terrible as quality. Not to mention I was embarassed when I tried to use Action Burst and the camera app crashed :D (now I know why but I want a fix :D )

I have ploughed my way through this huge thread (not read every post) but want to know if there is a great improvement when flashing this Rom onto a Sensation XE as in the op it says upgrade your sensation to sensation XE. As I have a sensation XE. I see many users using this rom and was thinking of trying it?

Thanks
[HTC Sensation] ntonzrockz:
hi mike

so is it okay?

i think this version is the best sense 3.5 running :rolleyes:

i flashed MOD :

- CRT animation and rotation animation by blackdog

- bravia engine

- beats V4 improved

- BR camera mod for stock camera

- Ultra smooth rosie

- HTC keyboard with arrow

- battery mod UOT kitchen file

oh my, i just realize that that's a lot! :eek:

[HTC Sensation] mikef:
Did you check MD5 on the 4.1.8 download before flashing? That might help with the FCs. You should not need move2sd with your Sensation, it has a lot of onboard storage and it will automatically install apps that *can* live on the SD directly to the SD during the installation process. If the app did not install to the SD, chances are it won't work from the SD anyways.
[HTC Sensation] dorianborovina:
Ok,thanks :D

But I have for download Rosie 3.6.x,original Rosie,Rosie 4.1.x,original Rosie?
