Yes, you do need to do a superwipe as they are roms of different bases. Once you flash your new Rom, you do not meet to do a wipe as it is automated. And with regards to battery life, I believe they are almost the same since they make up similar tweaks and use the same kernel. And if you want a no sense arhd you might want to consider hypernonsense by Kris. That would ease your concerns of battery life simultaneously. Good luck.
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
1. Just flash on top of it. No wipe unless you are going from 3.x.x to 4.x.x

2. They are same (I've tested both)

3.1 yes

3.2 yes (I don't know if it messes anything up or not)

[HTC Sensation] remus82:
Same problem. I notice that alternate screenshots can't be seen. Could be the market app?
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

3.2= yes.

No problems.

[HTC Sensation] gewit:
I had some issues too with market,when I wonna look at the images,but when I reinstall market apk.all problems had gone.Try to wipe data
[HTC Sensation] Iosif1985:
My audio & auto shut down didn't occured untill now, I hope that it won't appear after 2 mins of game in the subway on my way home cause I will be very sad :)

Guys, in brief can you point the differences between Sense 3.0 and 3.5 ? I am thinking in moving back on Sense 3.0 because of Stock camera
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
3.5

More Widgets with integration into programs.

New layout of menus

Stock camera has a new layout

Mail app is a lot better for looks and buttons

More polished interface

Browser is redone

Basically HTC made it look smoother

Sent from my HTC Sensation in UR-Quan subspace.
[HTC Sensation] gewit:
Difference is in user interfaces,some new looks RAM optimisations,more customizable ROM.You have lots of MODs and ADD-ONs for this base.

But be advice that 3.5 is leak,and might have some bugs..

I use it for some time but went back to 3.0.
[HTC Sensation] Iosif1985:
great, apparently 3.5 is better, except for the f**camera ofcourse :)

ok, another personal problem, I retweet a lot, and HTC Peep when I retweet puts RT @original poster I preferr the behavior of the original application for obvious reason (if the original tweet has 160 characters you can't RT it), so basically I like the HTC Twitter widget, I do not like the behavior, is there any alternative out there ? (from the visual point of view) I could just use the twitter app, but I would've wanted a widget too.

Thanks
[HTC Sensation] craigspc:
Yes, it's usually an issue with alternate screenshots. Under normal circumstances I would also think that it has something to do with the market app. However, I also had this problem with the 3.6.7 ROM, which included the same version of Android market that I used prior to rooting my phone. I did not have this problem previously though.

I've tried clearing data as suggested in another post, but the issue is still there.

I'm 99% sure that I read about a fix for this about two weeks ago in a thread discussing Kernels (thought it was bricked kernel), but I can't find it anywhere. I'm using the default ARHD kernel though, so I'm not sure.

[HTC Sensation] dragonglance:
Hi all,

Just wondered if anyone else is getting the same problem as me i am getting crashing when i use the video recorder on the phone. I have tried different ways and first thought it was just because i was hitting the power button on the phone when i had finished instead of closing the app first. However any video recording once finished just crashes.

Sorry if this has been asked in earlier posts

many thanks for your time
[HTC Sensation] TheUntouchable:
Dont know why but the latest 3.6.8 is much slower than 3.6.7 with faux kernel 0.2.5 beta 7 and zram enabled.. Seems that now i have too little ram for my configuration :(
[HTC Sensation] oFcAsHeEp:
I experience battery drain whenever I turn on my phone...:confused:

:D

No, seriously now...I use GO Launcher too, no weird battery drain related to GO Launcher was ever noticed on my setup...

Just the homescreen hogging lots of CPU at times... But it might be some widget that's doing that...haven't had time to look into it in more detail...

P.S. Also, what do you guys think of the new TOUCH recovery by 4ext? I tried it yesterday...replaced with non-touch in 10 minues... I mean, touch is great and all that, but the UI is WAY more laggy, scrolling is slow, everything is TOO big... I just find the old interface much more efficient to interact with, tap those 4 keys and go go go...

Guess what guys, i am on the subway playing some music and trying to refresh this thread on xda app and my phone shuts down out of the blue, wtf is wrong here ?

Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e
[HTC Sensation] oFcAsHeEp:
Hard to say without more information... I suspect you're using the ARHD rom, the rest I can only assume :D

But yesterday I had 2 crashes...1 while playing alchemy...phone just rebooted itself... And the second was when shutting down I think.... It just froze, soft buttons lighted up, screen black...didn't even respond to the 3-finger salute...had to pull the battery...

All of which never happened before 3.6.8
[HTC Sensation] Bildi13:
I think the subway is one to blame. Mikes ROMs are not subway friendly

Fastest ways to find out wtf is going on.

1. If you have a random reboot post your last.kmsg

2.

going back to Elegancia till i get a few answers
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
if you go to the root directory of your phone using es file explorer, then going into a folder called proc

in there theres a file called last.kmsg

so proc/last.kmsg
[HTC Sensation] Sibbi:
Don´t know if this has been adressed before.

I flashed the all-in-one w/o recent Apps. After that I wasn´t able to play music via headphones anymore.

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

Must be some leftovers in one of the mods...
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
Go to recovery & wipe dalvik, cache, and do fix permissions.

Enjoy Elegancia until you decide to come back :)
[HTC Sensation] shingers5:
ok i thought super wipe did all that! will do and come back lol!
[HTC Sensation] panda1986:
Hi,

I have two situation where phone wont wake from sleep (in 8h of using). I just upgrade ROM without wipe from 3.6.7 to 3.6.8. Known bug or something new? Any cure?

Tnx
[HTC Sensation] i900frenchaddict:
My I add something?

3.0= a little faster than 3.5 for hardcore heavy gamers, also less 3D bugs and no problem using Chainfire3D to play Tegra2 games (accelerated UI mixed with CF3D= baaaaad!)

So 3.0 has some good points too, that weren't mentioned in the latest posts :D
[HTC Sensation] craigspc:
I'm just a noob, but the only time I had this issue was when I had 'Sleep Max' set too low in Daemon controller (set to minimum/powersave). I did read in the release notes for the ROM (I think) that the default Sleep Max value was increased to avoid crashes. I thought I'd mention this, as I've never experienced the problem since increasing them back to default (unless I forget to switch off the camera that is :) ).

Edit: Just tried looking for the info that I referred to above, but I can't find it. Perhaps it was just coincidence that I never had the issue again after changing the settings back. Hmm...
[HTC Sensation] BIGMOH:
This theme is not working for me. Don't know if any one else is having the same issue as me but this is whats happening on my phone.

I tried to flash the file 4 times on my phone on the 4EXT Recovery v2.2.7 RC3 and the outcome is the same all 4 times:

1. it says successful and it will reboot into recovery (It does not do that)

2. did battery pulls after and booted into recovery, back to stock theme.

Thoughts / ideas /suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

[HTC Sensation] TheUntouchable:
Its NOT for 4EXT Recovery v2.2.7 RC3!!! Its for the new 4EXT Touch!
[HTC Sensation] panda1986:
Hmmm, when I open Deamon Controller it says that I have 3.6.7 rom :). I have 3.6.8. Maybe I should go for super wipe and then install fresh copy? Wake min and Sleep min is 38400. What are your values?
[HTC Sensation] BIGMOH:
Bummer:o that explains a lot! :)

Thanks mate!

works perfectly, 0oh i like the Touch recovery :P
[HTC Sensation] TheUntouchable:
No problem, youre welcome :D
[HTC Sensation] jotha:
If you are sure you have installed 3.6.8 then it could be that you also installed the Bravia Mod. This mod resets the ROM-Number to 3.6.7. If you installed that mod, don't care for that number.
[HTC Sensation] panda1986:
Yes I installed Bravia mode but I didn't notice some change in video playback :) I will put some hd videos to see difference. Tnx

In this case, this means that my installation is not problem so problem is in something different. I used 3.6.7 with no problems.
[HTC Sensation] dragonglance:
Am on 3.6.7 ideally i don't want to have to flash a new room and have to reinstall everything. What do you think?
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

There is no need to re-install EVERYTHING.

A new ROM will only remove any mods you have installed.

You do not lose any settings or data.

[HTC Sensation] Iosif1985:
Still trying to copy that file, no luck untill now, I encountered some bootloops and the I deleted cache&dalvik cache&batt stats with no luck, I tried a fix permission, no luck, finally I removed the battery and booted up...

I found the 4.1.8 quite buggy.

1. When I changed my lock screen shortcuts, after unlocking, the homescreen wouldn't rotate anymore.

2. The biggest problem. When I sent out texts, it's fails. And after that I get a call from the other party telling me he's received like 6,7 of the same texts.

I'm on 3.6.8 now.. But I like the sense 3.5 sooooo much.
[HTC Sensation] BIGMOH:
well i think you might as well try the 3.6.8 XE ROM as it is the upgrade for the ROM you are currently on, it might solve that issue plus many more issues that you haven't noticed in the past.

Alternatively you can try this:

Go to recovery & wipe dalvik, cache, and do fix permissions.

or

Go to settings, applications, all, camera and clear data < don't think that will do it but worth a try

Let us know if anything works.

Good luck! :)

3D performance improvement

Hi.

Speaking about the fully enabled 3D hardware acceleration in .8 roms .

I came accros this article on XDA:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=987531

Do you guys experience more memory consumption in your phones, based on the usual ussage of applications ?

For me it's hard to compare as I started from .8 rom.

I am not saying by that, that enablement of hardware graphics permanently is something definitely bad here. Maybe it's simple worth the hasle. It is permanently on ICS "as long as API level 14 or higher is targeted". But it may also cause some memory shortage problems on heavy ussage.

I am sure Mike is aware of this dependancy and decided to swith it on.

But I am asking about your experience.

T.
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
My consumption levels as I montitor is are about the exact same. Maybe 5 - 10MB lower but it comes back up pretty quick.
[HTC Sensation] BIGMOH:
I've tried disabling notifications. It didn't help.

The thing is that it doesn't rotate after unlocking.[/QUOTE]

could you explain what doesn't rotate?
[HTC Sensation] Scann69:
Anybody has the power button issue where pressing the power button turns off the screen but then the screen comes back on again.
[HTC Sensation] InquisitiveG:
Didn't know I had that problem so I tried it when I saw your fix (I also installed the same mod you mentioned). The problem was there and your fix works!!:D
[HTC Sensation] DJ_Caibel:
That's been an issue since...well, the beginning. Just press it a couple of times and it'll stay off. Or set your screen timeout to 15 seconds.
[HTC Sensation] BIGMOH:
sometimes it happens to me but that's cause i know that I'm pressing the button hard. :o
[HTC Sensation] Scann69:
Ha....thanks for the confirmation. I know it's been an issues since we started with custom kernel but i thought somebody would have solve the problem :p

Anyway for those who are wondering, the stock XE 1.5 GHz kernel works great with the 3.6.8 XE. Also, you don't get the power button issue hence i'm using stock kernel now.
[HTC Sensation] Zlyc:
could you explain what doesn't rotate?[/QUOTE]

The homescreen doesn't rotate.

It hangs, then loads.

I realized it's because of the lock screen shortcut after I've changed it to 'whatsapp' and a few more. I don't know why though.
[HTC Sensation] Iosif1985:
Come on guys, what files (logs) do you need so I can find out what is causing my shut down problem ?
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
Like i said before. The last.kmsg file tells exactly why you randomly shut down.

If you cant get to it from phone you may need to do an adb pull /proc/last.kmg from a PC
[HTC Sensation] Smintz:
sry guys, i know i asked before but since i got 2 diff answers:

1) can i flash 3.6.8 over 3.6.7 without any wipes? (superwipe, dalvik, cache...) or do i need any wipe?

---

2) if i compare 4.1.8 and 3.6.8 both without sense (no-sense-script) is there a big difference? if yes which please

3) if i can flash 3.6.8 over 3.6.7, should i use the normal download in first post?

thanks a lot
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
Just flash ontop of it.

That I dont know unfort as I never used no-sense.

Yup just download it just like you downloaded 3.6.7 and flash the same way.

Soooo... Anyone seen a flashable zip to get sense 3.5 homescreens to have more than a 4x4 grid? 4x5 or 5x5 (5x6 if there isn't widget interference) would be amazing. It is the only think that I REALLY miss from AOSP launchers and makes me want to ditch Sense. Note that this isn't the app drawer I am talking about.

There is a tutorial here to mod Rosie though it is a little beyond what I am comfortable doing myself. There is a lot of talk of rosie FCing after doing this as well. Hopefully someone here has some experience with it.

I've wiped the cache, Dalvik cache and fixed permissions. I've even Super Wiped twice and reflashed the entire ROM. I've tried using third-party messaging apps and have the same issue.

So....WTF?!?!

So, using the last couple builds my phone hardly ever goes below about -80mA and at times through the night during sleep it jumps up to over -500mA and sometimes almost 800mA! This can't be normal, right? I see people getting -3mA during sleep, what could be causing this drain? Should I start over with a fresh flash? Could it be faux's kernel?
[HTC Sensation] ijob:
Hi there,

with the latest ROM (3.6.8) the power button sometimes doesnt turn the screen off. Is this kernel related?
[HTC Sensation] walkinhotdog:
I think its generally believed to be a combo of hardware and software problem. kernel can mediate the problem, bricked kernel is said to be a bit better at not having this happen. im on faux it happens maybe 1/4 or 1/2 the time.

[HTC Sensation] HorstDCC:
I'm using it with the 4.1.8.

As for performance you'll require benchmarks to see the differences if any. From a human perspective it's precisely that: a perspective on an impression.

What should I compare: switching between applications? the app's speed? using the launcher? updating data in widgets? the boot process?

It seems quite unfair to compare a Sense Rom with CM7 or MIUI, both of which feel much faster to me.

Any Sense ROM starts up really slow, but in everyday life I don't actualy shut my phone down so that never happens. Even with the no-sense script it's still a Sense ROM.

ARHD 4.1.8 no-sensed doesn't feel faster or slower than ARHD 3.6.8 with Sense to me. But even that is an unfair comparison. Alas, I haven't installed every combination since this type of comparison never was my objective, but you can do that.

As for battery life: too soon to tell. The first day on a ROM is never a day of 'normal behaviour' in my case. Plus I don't have exactly the same set of applications as on ARHD 3.6.8 Sense or SenSeay 2.1.

If you really want to compare you'll need to setup your own tests with the ROMS you want to run them on.

When you installed the initial 4.1.7 did you do a super wipe first?

These usually signify a messup in the rom install process (Like did you install any mods ontop of the rom before first boot?)
[HTC Sensation] Iosif1985:
I did a SuperWipe before each installation, also I installed mods right after ROM on 4.1.7. On 4.1.8 I SuperWipe, Installed ROM, apps, rebooted and only then installed mods. Below are all the post that could help you

There is the Android Mail client which can be used to connect to an Exchange server. You can also use it to connect to Hotmail, Gmail and so on using POP or IMAP I believe. Alternatively, you download the Hotmail or Gmail specific apps.

I'm not sure what you mean by Exchange server for Hotmail though. :confused:

[HTC Sensation] InquisitiveG:
I am not sure how you set things up, but hotmail is not an exchange server type account. In accounts setup choose "Mail" rather than "Exchange" for account type to set up.

Exchange accounts sync over https and hotmail syncs using pop protocol.
