[HTC Sensation] sdxda:
hey guys thinking of buying a sensation and using this rom. Mainly I need a non tmobile branded phone that has a custom rom that supports tmobile wifi calling for use on tmobile. From what I am reading, this should work with any sensation. Question is, which do I get the 4G, XE, or XL? Looks like this rom turns the 4G into the XE, but if im starting fresh, would it be better to the buy the XE to start with? I see on ebay a new 4G and XE are about the same price $320-$330.
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
be certain to one thing

XL devices are not supported in this forum.here are for sensation,4G,XE

they have their own forum(different hardware)
[HTC Sensation] sdxda:
Thanks for the info, I didn't realize that.

Just to add to my question above, can people comment on how well wifi calling on tmobile works for them? I have spotty coverage inside my house and i want good reception though wifi.
[HTC Sensation] bmw2320:
Thx for the reply.

Forgive me for asking cos I'm new in Android.

From the 1st page:

You need:

1. HTC Sensation/4G/XE S-OFF ---> Guide to S-off, Installing ClockWork, PermRoot, SuperCID & Flashing

2. 4EXT Touch Recovery

3. Firmware package from downloads section

4. If you have problems or further question, please read ---> How to flash ICS 3.32 firmware | flash ARHD ICS ROM

So I need to do step 1-4?

About the 4ext touch recovery, Where could I get it? Is it included on ROM ARHD 6.8.0 XE? So no separate download is necessary?

TIA

Hi,

I have downloaded arhd 4.1.13 as I really like gingerbread and sense 3.5, does anyone have any of the mods still available? Apm, extended quick settings, battery % etc? I have had a good search and cannot find any links....

Many thanks.
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
I hope to integrate AROMA in 6.9 and also some other cool changes.
[HTC Sensation] 7OOKA:
i hope 6.9 will be sense 4.1 :)
[HTC Sensation] mandeep294:
no. it wont be
[HTC Sensation] XeloOw:
Nope as Mike use as base only official ROMs
[HTC Sensation] ifti_a:
I'm sure pretty happy with 6.8.0.

Its good stable and does the job.

The sensation is pretty old now, with a new HTC series coming out in a few months so I think developing stuff for it will wind down soon.

Just my opinion.

I still love my sensation but ive stopped looking for ROM updates.

Thanks Mike for the awesome ROM
[HTC Sensation] 7OOKA:
then what changes can it be!!!

i mean the rom is is the best in performance and from my point of view no change would be worth the effort if it still sense 3.6

BTW: even though i know ARHD is the best in performance i use ViperS 1.6
[HTC Sensation] mandeep294:
mostly app updates, dont know what xtra we can get
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
I feel the same way about ARHD 1.2.2 (T-mobile version).

Fast, smooth, stable, excellent data and cell performance. I don't think I will be bothering with any updates for this phone. I've got this baby optimized and customized to within an angstrom of its life. Why mess around with perfect?

Pn
[HTC Sensation] ifti_a:
Exactly, im not sure its worth porting sense 4.

I feel if people want sense 4/5 buy the one x+.

I don't think its worth the effort porting it.

But people like new stuff.
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
It's also my point of view. But I'm sure there will be update for HTC Sensation at some point.
[HTC Sensation] Solar_:
Are you sure? Someone mentioned Football: sir, how sure is your information that sensation won't get updated to jelly bean?

His answer was: 99% sure.

But, I really hope u are right. :D

We'll see :)

Since I've installed 6.8, my phone has been resetting on it's on and has become more frequent in the past few days. Is there a fix for this or did I do something wrong upon install?
[HTC Sensation] ifti_a:
Maybe kernel issue ?

Do you know what kernel you selected during install
[HTC Sensation] Nxslvr24:
Yes. I chose faux123.
[HTC Sensation] altroy2:
This rom is awesome. My kernel finally sat in good and battery life is way more than I have hoped for. Again, one last issue I have with the phone is the in call volume and speaker phone. I can barely hear the other person on the other side when I'm around any minimal noise. If anyone knows a fix for it, please let me know. If I can get the volume to go up somehow the phone will be perfect. I had the mt4g b4 this one and the volume was way louder. I will have to upgrade otherwise, and that would suck :/

Thank you in advance.
[HTC Sensation] kushXmaster:
Could be a faulty battery connection. Check to make sure the battery isn't loose in the housing. You can also use a small amount of rubbing alcohol on a peice of lint free clothe to clean the connections on the back.

After i superwiped and installed this ROM it seems like my phone get stuck on synch on gmail time to time.

I have to get into the settings,synch and press cancel then synch again or else the synch icon get stuck on top of the infobar and no mail wil be updated.

Is this an known issue on this version or anyone else have this problem and know how to fix it ?

old sense (3.x)

upgrade it

[HTC Sensation] dallashigh:
It is extremely rude to tell a dev how to build THEIR ROM.

Besides that, not everyone wants to deal with the bugs in Sense 4+. I use MHL almost daily, so even though I would love JB or at least Sense 4 it just isn't in the cards for my usage. I–and I'm sure most people using this ROM–appreciate Mike's work in providing a FULLY FUNCTIONAL and BUG FREE, stable ROM for the Sensation.

There are plenty of Sense 4+ ROMs. Feel free to try one.

Hello,

after the ROM update, the wifi shows an error and could not be switched on. Does anyone have an idea of what could be the reason ?

Thanks
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
Sounds like a wrong kernel/modules. Try to reflash the ROM using proper (4EXT) recovery.
[HTC Sensation] rbarsa:
I am sorry, but I am not experienced with ROM reflashing. I did the ROM reflash via ClockWorkMod Recovery v5.0.2.0. Is it incorect ?

What is the 4EXT recovery and where to find it ? Thank you
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
Are you s-on?

It is caused by your boot.img file improperly flashing. If you are s-on you have to turn on smartflash in 4ext

And I have no clue which firmware package to download. I need a bit of help here.

Actually you dont need SuperWipe. Just use the " wipe all except Sd card" in the 4ext recovery will do. As for the radio, its included in the ROM package.

Rom Problems

Hello,

I have a big problem so please bear with me and read it thank you !

I'm using the sensation Xe with ARHD 6.8.0 XE,I recently changed provider and got a new sim,this new provider needs the phone to be on roaming mode so that you can have cellular network,if the roaming mode is off you don't have cellular network I tried that in a Note 2 using the same provider they are setting up their new infrastructure so now they are using one of the existing infrastructures from an old provider.

For the first couple of days I had a problem with the APNs they didn't appear and setting them manually (with help from the provider) didn't work plus I couldn't send text message they got stuck on "pending",I could call and receive message and phone calls ,I put the sim in SGS2 and Note 2 both used sims with this provider,the cellular network worked fine (with my sim) but the messages still won't get sent.

Yesterday I decided to superwipe and re-flash the Rom,everything started working fine,including the text messages,the only problem is that I didn't have to turn the roaming mode on to have cellular network and even if it's on the phone is not in roaming mode,this is not right it shouldn't be working.

plus after couple of hours,the phone stops sending texts,they yet again get stuck on "pending" for no particular reason,superwiping and re-flashing solves this problem,but I don't want to keep super wiping the phone every 12 hours.

So because of these reasons I assume that it is a ROM problem,I didn't try flashing any other ROM,because I really love this one.

I hope that there is at least one that can help me with this problem it's getting really irritating.

Thank you for your time

S.Y.Z
[HTC Sensation] Base-Nikko:
I'm S-Off :good: I'm looking for the bootloader.

Rom Problems

Thank you,I tried what you suggested it didn't help,this time even the first message got stuck on pending.

I'll try this tomorrow I just thought there would be a way to solve this without flashing other ROM.You also said that it sounds like network problem,could it be a network problem even if my room mate is with the same provider he is the one with the Note 2) and he doesn't have any of these problems,plus when you put my sim in his phone it works just fine but the other way around his sim in my phone we don't get signal at all ?
[HTC Sensation] kushXmaster:
It's a radio. However, the link for that doesn't work I think. You can try the radio/ril thread and find a radio and corresponding ril file that works for you.

Sorry to hear that. The only other thing I would imagine it being is the apn setting. But you said you tried that already. Maybe there is another apn setting you can try. :/

[HTC Sensation] janedoe5000:
So for installing a radio I just flash it like I did with the firmware? with clockwork recovery?
[HTC Sensation] mandeep294:
Firmware consists of radio. No need to flash separately

"No ur battery usage screenshots wont help anyone"
[HTC Sensation] S.Y.Z:
Again !

Well I flashed Venom ROM,again didn't get the "R" for the roaming,I have slow cellular network and the messages worked for the first hour or so and stopped again,looks like it's a network problem I'll call them tomorrow or I'll just go back to my old provider,if no one has anything to suggest.
[HTC Sensation] joaquinf:
Now that you came to the conclusion that it isn't ROM related you have two options

It's network related or APN/config maybe? (call your service provider and they should fix it, new sim card maybe)

It's a hardware problem (I don't think so but just to be sure, try a different sim card for a day and see if you have any trouble)

Good luck and i hope you can solve the issue with your carrier :)

---------- Post added at 03:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:55 PM ----------

Gee, so many things going on here. Sorry for the muti-quote guys but this has to be done.

It's a patch for TMOUS users. It is not a radio. It's a customer radio data file (rcdata.img) which can be flashed in addition to the radio.

Read this for more info

It is not a radio, it is not a RIL. Please read the link posted above for more information

Yes, there are a couple of methods available to flash a radio. Go to the radio/ril thread for a detailed guide on how to flash a radio and choose the one that works for you

Radio is just a small portion of the firmware package. You can flash the radio separately any time you want and/or you can delete the radio.img file from the firmware package and update the firmware without changing the radio.

Please have a read here for more firmware information and here for radio/ril information

Thanks

Hi, I just got my Sensation XE last night.

I want to put on Android Revolution HD

So far I have followed this page to root my phone: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1632553

There were no problems so I assume it is rooted.

I started in bootloader mode and it says S-ON

I am not sure if I need to make it S-OFF, and I looked in a few threads on the net which include some messing with the hardware which I am wary of doing.

So I guess, my question is - after following the first link where I rooted my phone (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1632553)

What else do I need to do to put this rom on?

Do I need to make it S-Off? If so - how? (i have hboot v1.29)

What else?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Ah thank god I don't have to do that wire thing.

If I have already flashed CWM, I don't need to install step 2 in your link - or do I?

Oh wait, it looks like I need that specific 4EXT recovery (from step 2) to be able to flash a new rom (in step 3). Does that mean I need to somehow remove CWM or something? Or can I have both of them? Sorry - this is confusing to a noob.
[HTC Sensation] kushXmaster:
If you install ARHD, it will put 4ext recovery on your device. Then just wipe system and install ARHD again and you will have the options to choose what kernel, if your device is tmob and a few others.

That's the easiest way.

[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Follow the link by asskicker that rzr86 gave you.

It shows you how to install 4 ext recovery.

Then, how to use smartflash to flash the ROM.

:)

Sent telepathically from my pyramid
[HTC Sensation] pwoita:
Ah ok.

I have followed all the steps to enabling permanent smartflash so assume that has worked.

I'm up to this:

I don't know what it means to flash a root, so I don't know if I need to do that.

My device is already rooted, S-On, permanent smartflash enabled, and busybox installed - if that info helps in the decision.

Should I still be following 4A ?

Or just go straight to 4B and put on ARHD ?
[HTC Sensation] GuerillaTech:
Do you want to go S-off? It doesn't matter really for your question. On to your question though, go to 4b.
[HTC Sensation] pwoita:
Ah cool. Cheers.

Should I make a backup or something before I flash a rom?

You can. That way you have a stock version ready to go, if needed.

[HTC Sensation] pwoita:
The superwipe link is broken.

Ah never mind - found this comment from a page before

Do i need "Sony Bravia Suport" ?

Also, it says

I really don't think I will ever know enough to make a decision on flashing a custom kernel.

Can anyone give some simple suggestion on this for someone who is kinda guessing his way through this?
[HTC Sensation] kushXmaster:
You don't need Sony bravia. You can flash it. Won't negatively effect anything. It's supposed to improve picture quality in the gallery or something like that. You can Google Sony bravia engine and get more info on what it actually does. I always used it and never had a problem.

As far as kernel goes, it's a bit different for everyone. I always used bricked or SebastionFM. The faux kernel is very popular with users here. If you use faux make sure you pick a version that has a "u" after it, such as 9u. I'm not sure which comes pre packed with the Rom, I haven't had this phone for a couple months, gave it to a friend of mine.

You can try as many kernels as you like. You don't have to wipe anything to switch. When you flash one give it a few days of use so you can really get a feel for how it works for you. It's a little bit of a learning curve but with a little patience and effort, you will find what works best for you.

Best of luck :)

Swiftly sent from my Galaxy Note 2 via XDA premium
[HTC Sensation] pwoita:
Ah ok.

I don't have the time to learn about kernels and will just stick with the stock one for now.

It's good to know if I get time, I can just switch them without wiping anything or reinstall all my apps and settings and so on. Thanks for the info.

I now have a rooted Sensation XE with ARHD on it thanks to the above people. Thanks very much for the help!

While I am here, does anyone know if its possible to:

- have a battery indiciator on the top right showing the percentage "number"

- have icons and/or widgets on the lockscreen

- show the next alarm time on the lock screen

I keep getting random reboots lately.. im on 6.8.0. Any advice how to remediate this problem? Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] umberto1978:
Without a log or additional informations it's as to win a lottery.

There are too many variable that can get "random reboots", specially if you have played a bit with the rom and kernel....

1- Low memory killers: if you setted a too aggressive LMK there are possibilities that this settings killed everything and zYgote ordered a reboot

2- SD card ****ed-up. In this case you can format your sd card USING a pc (32 kb allocation e full format, NOT quick)

3- Too low voltages

4- too high overclock

5- too low min frequence

Should i go on? ;)
[HTC Sensation] bigmachine:
Thanks! I didnt change other stuff on it so just the basic 6.8.0 rom.. i'll try formatting the sdcard and see if it improves.
[HTC Sensation] umberto1978:
Well, the ARHD is known as a rock stable rom, so i really think could be SD card. I had a similar issue (with any rom) some time ago and formatting resolved the RR (Random Reboot).

Reflash the Rom without the animations and see if that makes a difference. You won't need to wipe for that. Just go into recovery and flash with same options minus jb animations.

I have random reboots problem with various ARHD versions (starting after switching between 2.x and 3.x versions) vith various kernels some time ago.

А folded piece of paper to put the battery closer to the contacts solved this problem completely (it's funny for 700$ device but it's fact. Hundreds of HD Sensations users have confirmed it).

According to kernels... Both faux and sebastianfm kernels I've tried may be a bit faster than stock kernel but it's much more "battery eating". And after 15-20 of gaming device temperature rushes to 55deg C and even higher. :( So I flashed stock kernel again.

I remember when I figured that out lol. I couldn't believe it... You would think they would have tested it and figured out that the battery is not sitting very well. Oh well, at least it was an easy fix lol
