[HTC Sensation] DECIM8:
I'm coming up to 42 hours off of a full charge right now and am at 9% with reasonable usage for me. I am incredibly pleased with those results. Versions are in my sig.

Usage during this time:

9 calls with most lasting around 5-15 minutes, one around 1 hour

Tons of text messages

3 email accounts including one exchange account.

Light gaming (pop open a game 6-10 times a day for about 5 minutes)

Couple hours of Pandora a day, used maps to get some directions, a couple YouTube videos and a little web surfing.

Settings:

SetCPU: 192000-1240000 with intellidemand governor

Email syncs every hour, 16 hours a day then is set to manual while I am asleep

All other accounts are set to sync at this frequency or less frequent.

Brightness is manual with a middle-low setting (never have a problem seeing it)

Power cycled fully 2 times (intentionally fully draining & fully charging) before getting these results

The default settings for the most part don’t give great battery life, you need to do some work. BTW, I have found that real time games (smurf village, I am looking at you) that give constant notifications and therefore need to sync all the time are horrible for battery life. Way more effect on battery than ROM and kernel.
[HTC Sensation] BIGMOH:
not sure, but that is how its been in the past...

Plus Mike's ROM is robust so if you don't like a kernel sipmly flash another one ;)

---------- Post added at 12:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:24 PM ----------

no need to, as it does it when you flash the new ROM anyways ;)

SO simply flash the new 6.6.3 ;)

Enjoy!
[HTC Sensation] pettigrew95:
Is there a changelog for Faux 005? I only see 004 as still being the current on his post in xda and rootz as well? Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] el722:
When I use Rom 6.6.2 and 6.6.1. I have a problem always. Around 2days one time. Suddenly no sound for everything. Must be reboot. Help, please. Thanks
[HTC Sensation] tsim79:
I'm interesting by the EAP-SIM function.

UP, if you could add this feature in the next ARHD would cool...:D
[HTC Sensation] m33-snk:
Ok guys, I unlocked my phone with htcdev, so I'am able to flash ROMs. (Tested it, no problems)

But, can I flash de XE version of this ROM? Because it's another base than the normal version, right?

I'm not sure, would be great if someone could answer me ;)
[HTC Sensation] snake4fun:
Hi Mike,

Thx for the great work!

Is the following tweak in the new version included?

Android_Revolution_HD_EXT4_Tweaks_v.0.1.zip

Gesendet von meinem HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio mit Tapatalk 2
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
Yes, you can flash the XE version if you want Beats.
[HTC Sensation] henrylar:
You can, no problem. I have done it. Take a look here

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=24892372&postcount=345

You might benefit from following the link to TRKAAA's answer to me about what is important about base - for the future updates :-) And you can of course coose what kernel you want, I am now on Faux, which is marvelous.
[HTC Sensation] Svartsyn333:

I mostly noticed that when phone got really hot. Is gone since I changed kernel and phone does not get too hot again.
[HTC Sensation] pifa_k1:
My bluetooth don't work! I am able to turn it ON/OFF and make a pair but I can't send/receive files from anybody(paired or not).I'm using ARHD 6.6.3 XE faux kernel and ALL IN ONE MOD V10 by jerrytan93 (without this mod was the same). This problem was in older versions of ARHD too, any ideas ?
[HTC Sensation] mobilkungen78:
When flashing ARHD 6.6.3 does the flashing give you any choice to add stock kernel
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
If you have the 4ext touch installed then it should. If you didn't have it before, then you do now after flashing the ROM. If you reflash the ROM now, you will get those options.
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
YES.

First asks if you want stock or custom.

Choose stock. You're done.

If you chose custom, you'd have another choice between Sebastian and Faux.

P.
[HTC Sensation] ximocko:
Yes, it'll give you even 3 options: Stock, Faux and Senb ;)
[HTC Sensation] Du22ty:
I might have missed it but are we going to get a 4.0 rom from mike?
[HTC Sensation] resssah:
if i install

Android 2.3.4 (Gingerbread) + Sense UI 3.0 + Beats Audio (HTC stable

can i use mods?
[HTC Sensation] akpe:
Same here, however I can receive files, but can't send :/

Thank God for dropbox and box.com :D
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
Yes, when HTC releases it or it gets leaked. Until then your only Sense 4 option is one of the ported ROMs.

---------- Post added at 11:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:38 AM ----------

Sure, if you can find 3.x mods which could be difficult. I have one left, an all-in-one-mod, I will attach a link shortly.

4. instal latest 004 faux123

5. instal addons

6. restore data

now i have a very good battery life :D
[HTC Sensation] twister082179:
Hi Mike, are you gonna make an ARHD Rom for the HTC One S?
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
Software development takes time to do it right.

There is an update in the article posted recently by Darnell_Chat_TN about this subject:

So it will be Sense 4 Lite. No ETA offered by HTC but obviously not until the One series has a few million sales.
[HTC Sensation] armagadon:
I'm waiting your best perfect Rom but with sense 4.0 interface,thank you
[HTC Sensation] abuserkadayf:
hahah, this just made me laugh ...

on a serious note..i switched over to the fauxkernel, does someone use a certain app to control the governors ?
[HTC Sensation] zedrix53:
thanks again mike!

i flash it last night and didn't get wifi and internet connection bug

with faux 005 best battery in standby
[HTC Sensation] joaquinf:
There is no need to. My best advice is to get rid of all cpu-control-apps (system tuner, setcpu, etc.) and init.boot scripts regarding cpu governors and freqs and let the kernel run as is. Intellidemand governor works like a charm, you won't need any app to control it.
[HTC Sensation] abuserkadayf:
but how do i know the governor is now set on intellidemand ?
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

It is set to run by default.

:)
[HTC Sensation] Trakkiggio:
anyway if you want change freq or governor use sistem tuner... so easy
[HTC Sensation] abuserkadayf:
allright thnx m8...

edit: getting 3500 on quadrant so yeah its prolly set on intellidemand lol
[HTC Sensation] DarkRaven66:
Hey guys how do I know beats is activated when playing music???
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
It only works with the stock player and with headphones. You should see a red "b" in the notification bar.
[HTC Sensation] Poncho007:
Best Rom ever, thanks

Only one idea, the dolphin Browser HD is running faster and better than maxthon and the build in google, maybe you can change them.
[HTC Sensation] alireza_simkesh:
I just tested it and it still sees my music files as junk and wants to delete them to make more free space:(

Its not the same OTA!
[HTC Sensation] chrisw99:
It was on on-demand after flashing the Rom. Flashing the kernel manually afterwards got it back to intellidemand, for me anyway
[HTC Sensation] el7145:
in addition the notification gives you the option of disabling/enabling beats audio
[HTC Sensation] jthumanist:
+1. I also prefer dolphin because you can dump cache and other web stuff just by exiting.

Sent from my HTC Sensation ARHD 6.5.5 XE. Rockin'
[HTC Sensation] Audrian:
I tried 4.0 roms and other 3.6 roms and now back to ARHD 3.6 XE rom. This rom has something different. Something that i feel myself safe and satisfied.
[HTC Sensation] Anti_simlock:
Ok first of all, a very big thanks to mike and everyone else who helped me out while flashing this ROM.:cool:

After 1 week of use I must say I'm pretty impressed, the phone runs pretty fast. The tutorials were perfectly written for anyone to understand.

Now, I've come across a few problems and I don't know whether it's the ROM or some sort of malware on my phone:

For some reason, strange things happen such as game save data are only temporarily saved. For example temple run, almost everytime I start from 0. The bigger games I have, keep deleting such as PES 12 or modern combat. Now every time I wanna play I need to download the whole package all over again. Also, no backups are working. The backup files get deleted as well and only the files I've backed up from 2.3.4 are permanently there. And another thing is, my SD Card gets corrupted making any apk file unrecognizable and can't install files. So I have to backup everything on my pc and then format and put the files back on it again. Which is very stressful :/

Have I done something wrong during the flash or is it some kind of virus? or maybe the wrong kernel for my phone?

I'm using faux123 kernel.

thx so much :)
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
Not likely, the ARHD team has an agreement with Maxthon. You can always install Dolphin afterwards and uninstall Maxthon if you aren't using it.
[HTC Sensation] jthumanist:
Ive tried Faux with every release since mike started offering it and I always end up going back to Sebastian. Its my phone's preference. I use System Tuner. Free from android market. Sorry, cant bring myself to use that new stupid name for the market.

EDIT: don't both kernels come with intelligent governors? I know New Hampshire doesn't! Yuk yuk yuk :)

[HTC Sensation] maschenazi:
Anyone that flashed ARHD 6.6.3 with faux kernel noticed wrong battery temperature readings ? Mine is reporting about 15-18 deg. Celsius cooler than it actually is. Measured the temp with a digital thermometer on the bottom of the phone, next to the buttons and got a reading of 42 deg. (charging, and using the phone - which is ok), but the temp reported was 24 deg.
[HTC Sensation] DarkRaven66:
Thanks man the volume is way better
[HTC Sensation] Anti_simlock:
yea I got suspicious as well, my phone used to run on 30° on average, now it displays 15°. There's definitely something wrong with the temperature measuring.
[HTC Sensation] Digidice:
I see many mentioning and cannot understand why not Sense 4 is out for Sensation yet.

I think Sense 4 is at the moment exclusiv for the new One series, and it kinda helps the sale on those phones if they are the only ones having sense 4.

So im sure they wont release it to quick, as they hope many will choose new phone to get sense 4, and im sure it works to :)

So lets be happy if we can have sense 4 at all :)
[HTC Sensation] danilo081:
For me it is issue with current ROM see my Sig. Can anyone else try and post the results. Thanx
[HTC Sensation] pifa_k1:
Somebody else with same issue ? I'm tired of my not working bluetoth
[HTC Sensation] abuserkadayf:
yes idd, mine is idle now 11c degrees... normally this is around 20-28

so yeah faux kernel is clearly reading the temps wrong

[HTC Sensation] newr:
unable to turn on ? Is this bricked? Please help!

Hi, I just installed this ROM and everything was booting up and restored the apps with titanium backup. However, when calling...after a few minutes..it'll start making this long tone and it turned off. The first time, it rebooted and everything seem to work...but it happened again. And now I am unable to turn on phone and it seems the phone is completely unresponsive.

Please help!
[HTC Sensation] zedrix53:
wow almost perfect arhd

never had a problem.i do not experience any bug since the previous version

i use cpustats.apk to show intellidemand as on... link is http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=876705

oopsss... it shows "ondemand" sorry...

Update.....

after reading that some are having to reflash faux 005b3 to get intellidemand, I did the reflash and then used cpustat and got the intellidemand setting... I knew it was saying that before posting..... anyways.....
[HTC Sensation] abuserkadayf:
according to that app the governor is set on ondemand instead of intellidemand
[HTC Sensation] alireza_simkesh:
try going to recovery and flash the rom again.
[HTC Sensation] Flashben:
I have the same problem when using a 3rd party batteries but when I use back the original batt, I temperature is working again....
[HTC Sensation] bfspider:
I def do miss it and you're right, uploading ~800MB is a PITA...

Maybe put one of the recognized users up to the task of uploading the ROM to dropbox :p
[HTC Sensation] joaquinf:
I have 6.6.3 non XE up on dropbox and i'm uploading XE version. I am willing to give mike dropbox download links in case he approves that. Also, i don't have any problem in maintain dropbox syced with the latest releases :)

Mike please let me know and i will PM the links with md5 so you can update them in the OP

EDIT: XE version is up and synced :D
[HTC Sensation] trazipomoc:
6.6.3 non-XE works great. No issues to report. Very smooth, i dont see how it gets any better until Sense 4 is out or official wifi calling from T-mobile for ICS.
[HTC Sensation] GoreTan:
What do you mean...Sense 4 is already out, but HTC made the decision to not put Sense 4 on any compatible ICS legacy devices. So Sense 4 will not be officially on any HTC devices except the One series and future releases. If you want Sense 4 try InsertCoin Sense 4 or OrDroid?
[HTC Sensation] newr:
Won't turn on after installing Revolution

Please help! I installed the HD Revolution ROM from the insertcoin...performed wipe and installed the ROM. Seemed to boot into it ok and was able to reinstalled apps etc. However, when I started using phone to call...after a minute or so...a long constant beep/tone came on...and it shut down...rebooted...and thought it was fine..but when tried calling again...did exactly the same thing.

Now, it's unresponsive...can't turn on...light wont' turn on when plugged in. NOthign at all.

Please help! :( Is this bricked?
[HTC Sensation] Pard0ned:
Use Mike's superwipe script and reflash the rom. Should fix any problems. ;)

Also, if you need to, take out the battery to get into recovery. Can't imagine it's anything a superwipe can't fix.
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
Not quite correct.

There is an update in the article posted recently by Darnell_Chat_TN about this subject:

So it will be Sense 4 Lite. No ETA offered by HTC but obviously not until the One series has a few million sales.
[HTC Sensation] newr:
But I can't seem to turn on the phone? It's not responsive when I press the button. So I can't get into recovery. I tried to run ADB..(assuming I am doing it correctly)...plug phone to PC and ran adb device..but nothing shows up on the attached list.
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
Were you already on the latest 3.32 firmware? If not then flash it.

Edit: Just read your last post. Can you get into bootloader? Pull the battery, put it back in, and hold Volume Down and Power for a few seconds until the bootloader menu comes up, then go into recovery. Assuming you don't have a PG58IMG.zip file on your SD.

If you didn't know, there is a recall for Sensation for volume/power button issues.
[HTC Sensation] kayroccs:
Idk what u did mike but 6.6.3 is nice my battery life is ridiculous as in goooooooooooood
[HTC Sensation] newr:
Nothing seem to work. I can't turn the phone on at all...Tried ADB and it couldn't find device. I was using the firmware, not sure if it's the newest one, but one that was required to install ICS when I do the insertcoin..so definitely 3.32.401.... The thing is, everything seemed to boot up..it only started problem when I was on phone then had this long tone and the phone was unresponsive then just turned off...now it won't do anything.

I don't think it's an issue with the button...it does occasionally cause problem, but usulay it does turn on! Now it's nothing at all! :(
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
Well, like I said, there is a recall, so the problem is well known. At this point though you won't get a new replacement, it would be a refurb or they might try to offer you some other phone.

It could be a bad battery, if you have a local TMO store you might ask them to try a spare.
[HTC Sensation] DarkRaven66:
That's so true man the battery is insanely gooooooood Mike

re: my query about debug composition type..which is the best to use..ARHD uses C2D i happen to use GPU is there any drawbacks??could you care link me to sources explaining these or could you sort it out for me in a laymans way.. :confused:
[HTC Sensation] c3d76:
6.6.3 is so far really great!

If it came with Seb's (latest) 1.4.1 Kernel, it would be perfect :)

Cheers!
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
I did see that post initially and when I looked at your history but I didn't reply since I must admit I don't know a lot about that topic of differences between them really other than software vs. hardware.

I know when the 6.x ROMs came out that a number of people posted about how much better their performance was by checking on the "Force GPU Rendering" option in Settings, Develop Options, but those posts were followed by a number of other posts stating that strange problems were occurring and various apps were showing issues and the fix was to disable the GPU option.

I know that some of the custom kernels do GPU overclocking, and this has the same potential issue as with CPU overclocking. If you go too far, there will be errors. Sometimes those errors are visible, and sometimes not. The OS is designed to handle errors, and will retry the operations again, and again, and again until they work or fail completely. Sometimes the overall net effect of overclocking too much can be less due to unseen retries than with a normal speed CPU getting it right the first time. Or the GPU drawing it right the first time.

For myself, I don't have Force GPU Rendering turned on, nor do I overclock the GPU. I don't watch movies on the phone, just some light gaming, some music streaming, maps, mail, a little surfing. If I want to do more than that I use my PC or DVD player. Of course, everyone uses their phone differently.

Flash the APM module.

When you hit the power button and select the 'restart' button, it give you reboot options for "Normal, Hot, Bootloader and Recovery".

Select as desired.

[HTC Sensation] joaquinf:
Do a NANDroid

flash Sebastian's kernel

try if for 3 days

flash bricked kernel

try if for 3 days

make a decision

No one should have a better answer for what fits best to you, but you. Everyone uses their phone in a different way. What is good for me maybe you don't like it. I'd flash faux :D see?
[HTC Sensation] CMC_PUBLIKUM:
Yes, i know all that; it was a mistake with the version of the rom because i was tired and didn't read right. :o

My mistake, again! :o I wanted to say "marimbo"

[HTC Sensation] joaquinf:
To check what governor are you using type in terminal emulator

cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor

If isn't set as intellidemand. I think the easier way is to install system tuner and set it manually, disable "set on boot" if enabled. Do a couple of reboots and check again. When you have constant intellidemand, uninstall system tuner.
[HTC Sensation] Gustave17:
Hi,

Thanks for your answer !

I will test it and report it here ...

Is the latest 005 beta 3 not the same which is in 6.6.3?so I think I flash the latest beta from faux,that worked for me with intellidemand
[HTC Sensation] joaquinf:
You must've had a init.d script created in /etc/init.d to set ondemand governor on boot.

Glad is now working :)
