AHHHH theres too much teasing, i cant take it anymore!! :P
[HTC Sensation] sromer:
Thanks.

Is there a file i can flash if i ever wanna reverse it? or would i just reflash the ROM?
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
Changelog updated in the 1st and 3rd post.
[HTC Sensation] arf_cz:
Hi,

i moved from DHD to Sensation two weeks ago using yours ARHD 6.1.4 and there was one very usefull thing in the built in internet browser. It was possible to change the client to "desktop" that caused the pages were loaded like on the pc browser. Is here any way for Sensation to mod it, because i like much more the built in browser than for ex. maxthoon or opera mobile?

Thanks a lot
[HTC Sensation] remus82:
Can't wait! New rom looks yummy.
[HTC Sensation] ntonzrockz:
AWESOME MIKE!

im dying waiting!

[HTC Sensation] Pikaraph:
You rock !!

About battery leaks, you said you found what was responsible for this issue. What was it exactly ?
[HTC Sensation] DAIDY:
amazing Mike can't wait to flash
[HTC Sensation] konsti23:
Hey there

Once again... and as usual: Sounds fxxking great!! Looking forward to it!:D:D:D
[HTC Sensation] ifti_a:
Is this update using a beta of the kernel or the final version
[HTC Sensation] konsti23:
in the changelog

Hi Mike

What does "- Private beta for Android Revolution HD users." exactly mean?
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
It means that kernel wont be available as separate pacakge.
[HTC Sensation] gibbs1984:
Mine is set to GSM / WCDMA auto, I'm in the UK so would I be OK to set it to WCDMA only or would I lose signal in certain areas?

I know bugger all about GSM or WCDMA :)

Hey there

Thanxx for the very quick reply!

Full wipe with 3.6.7?
[HTC Sensation] Bildi13:
Is there a reason why is it called 3.6.7 and not 3.6.6 as it should? :D
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Same base,so just install as normal.

- No need to use Super Wipe if you have 3.6.x already!

:)
[HTC Sensation] Hakamuri:
SD card is unmounting and loosing mobile data connection

I am running ARHD 3.6.5 and have two serious problems:

1. my SD card is unmounting 2-3 times a day, even if the phone is in sleep mode

2. i am loosing the mobile data connection 1-2 times a day

Even after reflashing (incl. superwipe) the problems are still here!

Has somebody the same problem or can offer me a solution for these problems?

HTC sensation (flashed to XE version)

ARHD 3.6.5

Sense 3.0

Android 2.3.4

kernel: faux 123-v0.2.3r

radio: 10.58.9035.00U_10.15.9035.02_2
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
I just merged versions numbers so that we have 3.6.7 and 4.1.7. Easier to remember.
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

You could try updating your kernel to the latest version.

Check my signature for 0.2.4.r

:)
[HTC Sensation] mobilehavoc:
One quick question, my wake time is same as uptime which would indicate the phone isn't sleeping yet when I look at battery graph it shows periods where it isn't awake? Is this just a bug?
[HTC Sensation] affliction_emrah:
Personally, so happy that we still have faux in this great rom and project!

I love you both guys:)

Two questions:

Enable Android USB gadget projector support

Add HTC off-alarm support from XE source

what do they mean?

Just wonder...

Cheers Mike
[HTC Sensation] remus82:
Hi mike. With regards to the USB projector support. Does this mean that we no longer need the mhl adaptor for HDMI outputs? We could just use a micro HDMI to HDMI cable? If it is the case, this is a really cool function and surprise for us! :D
[HTC Sensation] canaps:
Can't wait for a download link !
[HTC Sensation] decebal12345:
Thank you very much!

Are you satisfied with your result?
[HTC Sensation] sjappie:
Crap, let tommorow please come soon... :-D
[HTC Sensation] korrel2008:
I know how mike is working....so ill guess links will be up tomorrow in the morning :D
[HTC Sensation] ifti_a:
Yep seems ok. Just about same as bricked kernel, around 1hr or so less.
[HTC Sensation] Evil-Dragon:
New faux kernel! Win! :D
[HTC Sensation] eranyanay:
do i have to use superwipe when going from 4.1.x to 3.6.x or the other way around?
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
Yes. When changing base, always. ;)
[HTC Sensation] konsti23:
Yes, you have to. Because of the different base.

But if you stay in the 3.6.x line or in the 4.1.x line and upgrade in the same range, a superwipe is not necessarily needed, but generally recommended.
[HTC Sensation] sromer:
That's a known problem with the kernel. It means that your phone isn't going into sleep mode when the screen is off.

The only fix is to flash a different kernel.
[HTC Sensation] leeskywalker:
yes i had this also, couldnt find a fix either i had to redownload the movies which is a massive pain i know, i posted the problem in q&a and never got a reply, let me know if you find a fix :)
[HTC Sensation] gewit:
Battery stats

With(4.1.6) included faux v.0.2.3r,default o/c settings,GPS disabled(turn on when i neade it)

I got werry good battery life.Even dhough i use a lot of wifi &3G

It is much better than before,when i was on 4.1.4/5.

And if this new ROM brings battery inprovement and etc.That means only one thing.

AWESOME ROM

Thanks MIKE & team for such great job!
[HTC Sensation] Ace42:
I knew Faux wouldn't be gone for long, it was just a matter of time till he would return to deving :p
[HTC Sensation] Evil-Dragon:
I wish i could help however unfortunately i've removed Watch from my device.
[HTC Sensation] akpe:
"Fixed HTC battery driver coding derp" in essence means no more (or way less) battery percentage jumping, right? :D

Sorry, can't help it, I'm too excited :D

but unfortunately its not working, can anyone tell me whats wrong with it?

Thanks..
[HTC Sensation] kellyj1978:
Thanks, I did not think of re downloading them. Works fine now! Rather do that than change the ROM, quite happy with ARHD.

If I see any other fixes for the HTC Watch I will let you know.

Thanks again :0)
[HTC Sensation] seferon33:
Woooow can wait for new Rom Thank you Mike for hard work.

Guys please i need small help. My battery indication every time jumping like from 85% to 82% and skip 84- 83 pleas how i will resolve this issue. Thank you
[HTC Sensation] BladeKnight:
if you don't play with your device you wouldn't know your device deeply....better take the risk...:D:D:D

just wait for the new Rom, It has the new Faux kernel with battery Fix..
[HTC Sensation] cellsitetechstl:
Only problem I have with playing heavily is reliability my phone while personal is used for work and certainly would love to learn more about UV on our device all that I have been able to find is a table someone wrote for system tuner

before you do a undervolting your phone....kindly back-up everything using your recovery..if it mess up you can just restore everything with your back-up...:D:D:D
[HTC Sensation] orangestrawberry:
New Rom changelog looks awesome.

Anyone seen that battery drops tend to occur with either switching phone on/off or changing settings such as undervolting? I.e. if I don't do the above then my battery seems absolutely fine.
[HTC Sensation] SensationalAdrian:
Can I just flash bricked kernel over faux or will I have to wipe.something? Thanks in advance
[HTC Sensation] H89P:
You can just flash it over, but make a Backup before just to be secure

After you flashed it, just update your Daemon Settings
[HTC Sensation] SensationalAdrian:
Thanks for your quick reply.
[HTC Sensation] korrel2008:
u can flash over but i would do wipe cache en dalvik cache just to be sure :)
[HTC Sensation] BladeKnight:
yep you can flash it over faux....yes, you have clear cache and dalvik:D:D:D
[HTC Sensation] SensationalAdrian:
Thank all of you for the quick replies! I highly appreciate it!

I decided to go ahead and give bricked a try since I keep having massive battery drain at night, even after restarting the phone and not running any apps. I went to bed two nights ago at 97% and woke up at 30%. No apps running. I went to bed last night at about 85% and woke up at 25%. Again, no apps running, no data, and no wifi.
[HTC Sensation] ajonesma:
I am using the chichitec 1900MAh battery for my sensation and lately my phone has been really heating up while charging, and I also cannot get it too 100%, it'll just sit at 99% for almost 8 hours of standby.

I flashed Senseay ROM because I thought it might be the rom but same thing, trying my stock htc sensation battery now to see if its the battery's problem.

Will report back tomorrow or in the next few days.

what do you guys think?
[HTC Sensation] hamyg84:
So I moved from desire hd to sensation and flashed ARHD 3.6.5 xe and the battery is shocking. I'm hoping tomorrows update fixes it, mike great job I'm a loyal ARHD tom user, desire hd to sensation and always used your roms

Sent from my HTC SENSATION running ARHD
[HTC Sensation] ifti_a:
you put it in the right folder and rebooted ?
[HTC Sensation] mobilehavoc:
I'm guessing the new 3.6.7 with kernel will fix it. Any recommended kernels with the 3.6.5 build that fixes this issue?
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
Give battery few days to stabilize.
[HTC Sensation] robbin7:
Try faux 0.2.4r - much better than build into 3.6.5
[HTC Sensation] BladeKnight:
Faux 0.2.4r you can check it under malybru's signature:D:D:D
[HTC Sensation] Sibbi:
How can you tell it's not working?
[HTC Sensation] cellsitetechstl:
I thought the b7 was the most recent kernel
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
B7 was the release version, nothing changed in it from b7 to final build
[HTC Sensation] malybru:

0.2.4.r is in my signature.

[HTC Sensation] ifti_a:
I have a small problem

I want to know if I should let the battery on my phone go completely dead before charging ie. Till it switches off ?

or should I wait till 2% then charge it ?

also I think my phone is doing a automated battery calibration because the .bin file is getting recreated every so often after a power off and recharge ?

the stats are also reset in the battery area ?

thanks in advance.
[HTC Sensation] Ricochet83:
Hi !

Yesterday i tried the bricked 1.5 with the 4.1.6.

A night for full charging.

I use the phone from 8 AM to 5 PM --> 84%.

I reboot the phone, .... , 30% !

Is somebody got this ? =(

Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] gibbs1984:
Anyone? :)
[HTC Sensation] decebal12345:
I think this is a Sensation problem.
[HTC Sensation] mobilehavoc:
Do I just flash over? do I need to wipe dalvik cache after?
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Make a nandroid backup,

wipe cache and dalvik,

flash in recovery and reboot.

:)
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
Mike's ROM has a script running for battery calibration. It checks every two minutes whether you have reached 100% charge and deletes battery stats then. After that it quits running. So it auto-calibrates the first time you reach 100% after a rom flash. Whether it does that again after the first run, I don't know atm. Have to look into the script first again.

You don't have to discharge totally to calibrate. Most important for manual calibration is reaching true 100%, which is AFTER it shows 100%. So let it charge longer than the 100%-point or use battery calibrator from the market which shows you the right point.

---------- Post added at 06:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:41 PM ----------

This is a known phenomenon with sensation, no matter which ROM or Kernel. The Sensation has a very unreliable battery reporting.
[HTC Sensation] teebag:
hi guys

well, what a rom this "was", I've been on the 3.5.2 since yesterday, cool!

I flashed the latest rom and now my senstation won't move nowhere at all, it hangs in htc screen forever and I do not know anymore what to do at all anymore. some ideas what I could do to run my phone again?

cheers

[HTC Sensation] mobilehavoc:
I just noticed my recovery went from CWM 5.0.2 to EXT4 but I never did this myself? Is this part of then ARHD script? Any issues with EXT4? I've only ever used CWM. Not sure how it got on my phone.
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
It's part of ARHD. It's a recovery that is based on CWM, but can do much more. Give it a try, you won't regret it.:D.

Best you dl the 4ext app from the market. It's a replacement for ROM-Manager. There you see the advantages of this recovery. Or have a look on the 4ext-Thread.
[HTC Sensation] mobilehavoc:
Can I restore CWM backups using it?
[HTC Sensation] konsti23:
Don't worry about this, ext4 is newer and better than cwm. All backups done with cwm are fully compatible with new ext4. You'll love it... :)
[HTC Sensation] mobilehavoc:
Ok. I was just surprised when I boot into recovery and it was something different. I was wondering how it got there!? :-)

Do you recommend installing the 4EXT market app or not really worth it? I found with CWM doing things via ROM manager caused more issues than if I just did it directly in recovery so a little wary about phone apps that work with recovery.
[HTC Sensation] mox123:
just to ask where is the link for Android Revolution HD 4.1.7, the only link there is the 4.1.6 zip file

im hoping the new kernel fixes the weird battery behaviour

i flashed 4.1.6. revolution hd with 1.5 bricked kernel and all seems to be ok with the battery, i left it on standby for over an hour and a half, it was still at 100% then dropped to 99%

then starting playing tintin hd and it dropped very very quickly (which i expect to due to the oc gpu and heavy graphics in the game)

anyway after playing tintin for a couple hours it settled at 34% and did not go down unless i used the phone, wifi browsing etc.
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
Well, it seems you didn't read the first post :p don't say that laud :D
[HTC Sensation] elmalote:
Yeah and its not working..

Checked the permissions and everything too. Also tried the flashable zip file someone posted here UV by 50mv. Putting the 95uv script in init.d, that didn't work either...
[HTC Sensation] tsubus:
What could be the issue when Talk app closes instantly when opening it?
[HTC Sensation] konsti23:
I absolutely do, I did the same. Later you still can choose if you would like to buy the app... If I was you, I'd do it again with no regrets. :)
[HTC Sensation] elmalote:
I did a check using Adb.. cat /sys/devices/system.....

Fauxclock app works fine though, it undervolts instantly..

But it has a lot of FC's so I rather not use that app, instead use the built-in OC Daemon...
[HTC Sensation] konsti23:
I guess you are right... but psssst... we won't tell anyone... :D:D
[HTC Sensation] mobilehavoc:
Thanks. Last question, this newer kernel has an intellidemand governor, I'm assuming because it starts with intelli, it's smarter than the regular on demand governor?
[HTC Sensation] yeantbron:
Hello, with 4ext revory, after a full wipe, is it safe to restore data only (arhd 3.6.x) to arhd 4.1.x? or it should be done with titanium?

Thank you!!
[HTC Sensation] katdog75:
Finally! Got my ten posts to be able post here!

First - as I already told Mike in an email - this ROM really is fantastic. Keep up the great work!! I am very excited to see the next release!

My question, however, is to Jotha,

I have been looking through the pages since around 2600 and I can't seem to find the post where I thought you recommended a battery monitoring/calibrating app which has a specific setting for the Sensation. Would you be kind to mention it... again. (I hate to be one of those people who doesn't seem use search in her first question... but I have been looking for a few days and I can't find it again.)

Thanks!!

Kat

| Device: HTC Sensation 4G | ARHD 3.6.5 | Faux Kernel v0.2.4r
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
Intellidemand is much smarter than ondemand. It recognizes screen on/off so you should bypass any profiles you're running. This avoids lags caused by external daemons having to interfere with kernel operation.

It also recognized 2d/3d usage, scaling back speed when it is not needed. More efficient and smoother.

Much smarter.

P.
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
How could I resist a user with such an avatar :D.

The "advanced battery monitor" has a special setting for Sensation. But be advised: There are still unexplainable jumps in charge-percentage. Only the mAh-readings are more accurate.;)
[HTC Sensation] KingDavid63:
new XE base tomorrow is gonna be awesome cant wait...
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
How ever you do it, do NOT restore data from system apps. They are not compatible between the two bases, so you'll import trouble.

I restore apps and their data with titanium, but only market/installed apps and data.
[HTC Sensation] JamesRC:
A new base? Not the new 3.1.7/4.1.7?

Do you have any more info?
[HTC Sensation] mobilehavoc:
So if I go to Daemon controller and change both awake and sleep governors to intellidemand I'm covered?
[HTC Sensation] yeantbron:
Ok thank you!! ;)
[HTC Sensation] vcoolvin:
Not exactly, from previous posts i found that you need to click bypass and then in the new menu you just have to set min at 192000 and max to 1566000 and select governer to intellidemand. Thats all.
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Set the min and max to your desired settings.(192000 and 1512000 is good)

Set intellidemand from the drop down menu.

Click bypass and apply.

Then the governor will do all the work for you.

:)
[HTC Sensation] katdog75:
Thanks Jotha!

I couldn't find that app in the market or by searching Google. Is it called "advanced battery monitor" ?

ARHD 3.6.5

Faux123 v0.2.4r
[HTC Sensation] hamyg84:
I hope so dude, seems like HTC need to perfect there battery technology
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
No, sorry, my bad. It's called "Battery Monitor widget". You find it with "battery monitor" in market search. Sorry.;)
[HTC Sensation] fs61:
Do you recommend a full wipe from 3.6.5 up to 4.16?
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

You are changing bases,so you MUST super wipe before you flash.

:)
[HTC Sensation] cihanleanne:
i would do so.
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
Not only recommend, it's mandatory. You'd get in trouble if you don't.

Only from 3.6.x to 3.6.x or from 4.1.x to the next one no wipe is necessary.

The system apps are totally different, so the data of the other ROM would run havoc.

Thus also don't restore data from system apps after flashing.;)

Edit: Sh...! 4 answers before me! I hate those multiple replies. Even more when I am last. Sorry :rolleyes:.
[HTC Sensation] Patrics83:
Update!

Changelog

ROM Cleaner v3.1 - 2011-11-13

-Removed all Sense 2.1 Apps and Widgets to get a better overview.

Sorry all Sense 2.1 users, ROM Cleaner v3.01< will still support Sense 2.1 like before.

-Some other changes to ROMCleaner.txt to get a better overview.

-Added a section for new added apk's.

HTC Setup Wizard Remover

-Now it deletes Dalvik-cache only for Setup Wizard related files.

-Much faster boot time after flashing this tool because dalvik-cache doesn't need to be rebuilt again.

-Removed version name because I hate v4.0, I can't even remember why it ended up like that. So from now on it's only HtcSetupWizard_Remover ;)

Enjoy!
[HTC Sensation] konsti23:
It's not a recommendation... it's a must. The bases are different. But make a nandroid backup before, so if something fails you always can come back to the "old" state. :)
[HTC Sensation] gewit:
(optionally if coming from earlier version of my ROM, obligatory if coming from stock or other custom ROM)

I recommend full wipe,couse 4.1. is new base,so it could happend that is not working the way it schould.
[HTC Sensation] SensationalAdrian:
Well I switched over to the newest bricked kernel 1.5r. Everything is smooth.. I have yet to remove the phone from the charger though because its still sitting at 99% but the indicator has been green for a while.

Oh yeah, I noticed with bricked that the brightness in my capacitive buttons were lowered a lot.

Can't wait for the newest roms. I may switch to 4.1.7 bcuz of the changelog. :-)
[HTC Sensation] fs61:
Ok thx guys.
[HTC Sensation] i900frenchaddict:
yep, that's a recent feature oh Bricked kernel. I like that, these buttons are way too bright for me

_______________________________________________________________________________________

One question, in the changelog of the incoming 3.6.7:

Is that a very specific driver for projectors, or does it change something in the HDMI-out function too?
[HTC Sensation] gibbs1984:
So, if I switch to WCDMA only from GSM / WCDMA would I lose signal more or not be able to be contacted? I live in the UK, how much battery would it save too compared to the downsides?
[HTC Sensation] yepayepa:
Take care about naming, rights and owner/group.

Hope that helps.
[HTC Sensation] lainemac:
Just checked the change log and I'm stocked for the new kernel! Why no release date for 3.5 though?
[HTC Sensation] Delphineuni:
Hey, I just updated to the last version of the ROM and since I can't have boot sound anymore.

I placed it in pretty much everywhere (system/customize/resource/; /system/media/audio/ui/; /data/local/) to try but no luck. Anyone can help me?

Thanks

[HTC Sensation] leeskywalker:

[HTC Sensation] gewit:
If you gonna swich to wcdma only it could happends somewhere that you lose signal.I dont know how much is covered in UK,but yes,if there is no 3G,no signal..

But it drains less power as non-stop switching from gsm,to wcdma.
[HTC Sensation] ifti_a:
been reading your messages, was gonna reply but got busy with other posts lol

anyway im in uk too, if you swtich to WCDMA its 3g network= faster downloads, but the signals are crap, so most places you wont get a good signal.

if you leave it at GSM its 2g slow speeds, but the problem with 2g in uk is that if you are using internet you will not receive calls (not sure about txts) it will go to voicemail all the time until the data stops.

in terms of battery usage 2g uses less battery and 3g uses more battery but both are less than setting it to auto mode.

i set mine to GSM but when i want to use ne,t i manually set it to WCDMA and connect to the net.

bit of a pain as i cant find anything to do it in a one touch way

hope this helps and makes sense.
[HTC Sensation] katdog75:
In Canada with Mobilicity choosing WDCM only forces your phone to stay on your own Network's CDMA system even when your signal is really low. If you choose the auto GSM/WCDMA then when signal is low the phone starts scanning for the roaming GSM network and tries to figure which signal to choose. This process and increased scanning can really tear through battery in low signal areas.

You guys reporting really strange issues

1. If you want android mp3 to play on boot you need to go to system/customize/CID and open default.xml, navigate to line 425 where you will see:

<BootAnimation animation="/data/local/bootanimation.zip" />

and change it to:

<BootAnimation animation="/data/local/bootanimation.zip" audio="/data/local/android_audio.mp3" />

and place your mp3 in data/local folder.
