TAPS

I have also been following a thread over on Modaco on Android forums about a MIUI port and the dev there included something called TAPS in his rom. I tested the rom for a few hours to see what Dolby Surround Sound with TAPS sounds like- and it is AMAZINGLY loud! Too loud in fact for some situations- I had to turn it down while I was at work.

I have done a quick search for TAPS but all I can find is information about the song TAPS, what is it? And can we integrate it as a mod for this rom? It really increased the volume level for ringtones, notifications, and watching movies w/o having to use headphones. (I know the quality is not very good- but when we just need LOUD it seems to do the trick).

edit: I don't mean to promote another dev's rom on this thread- I use Mike's rom as my daily; but after trolling a few other threads it seems to me the people here know more about this phone and its capabilities than most others- even if we tend to get argumentative sometimes :)

Yes

I think I’m asking for too much but will need step by step instructions.

Sorry, but this is my first HTC phone, and many things are just not that simple.
[HTC Sensation] poopymt3g:
ok so I know this has been beat to death, but the bootloop issue cannot be caused by clock speed alone...I accidentally left my phone on performance mode @1.7 ghz on CM7 and didnt have a single bootloop. Now that im back on 3.5.2 ( since im out of town will update when I get back) Im getting bootloops all over the place even when i have it down to stock 1188mhz. Are we sure these bootloops are clock speed related?
[HTC Sensation] bradmill08:
Mike you rock
[HTC Sensation] evo9mrjr:
it felt sow and cf bench confirmed ... it was the thermal patch on faux123 1.9.. 1.9 by itself is much better

5x5 App drawer

For anyone asking for a 5x5 app drawer on this rom, I posted one on page 1922 that works fine.

I wanted to thank mike1986 and the crew for this Rom. I have one question though. Wow just one.....is there any way to change the icon for your network connectivity (H, E, Etc..) to the original 4G, 2G? I kind of liked it and since I flashed this Rom I don't see it. Thanks
[HTC Sensation] happyendin21:
Throwing my hat in the ring for the extended quick settings. It would add to this already AMAZING Rom

Thanks
[HTC Sensation] awesam:
yes maybe its not just clock speed alone. there's been tons of others reporting boot loops, even way before 3.5.x I had a couple on 3.0.x but after 3.1.1 i've always down clocked it back to 1.2ghz (i'm not those benchmark freaks, more of a Batt life freak!)

with regards to your problem, have you tried undervolt faux 0.1.9 ? hope mike can look into this soon.
[HTC Sensation] J.Swalen:
Try this. Works for me. Someone posted it earlier in this threat (believe it was designed for 3.6.0)

Apps not appearing in App Drawer...

I'm on 3.60 and I have an issue with Market installs. I can DL and Install an app (any app) from Market but it does not show up in the App drawer. If I create a shortcut then I see the newly installed app in the app list.

Only when I reboot the phone does the app properly appear in the App Drawer.

Anybody else experience this??? :eek:
[HTC Sensation] squeeish:
Same here. During the picture review the pic appears bluish but in the gallery it's perfectly fine. Did you guys install the Camera mod?
[HTC Sensation] ballu84:
Doesn't work

I installed the camera mod and it stayed blue
[HTC Sensation] deepakmk:
My phone seems to hang almost after awhile. I keep having to restart it, any idea why
[HTC Sensation] scm_crash:
I'm on a CM7 ROM right now because the boot looping was becoming a liability for me.

However I can tell you that 100% of the bootloops I had seem to be related to receiving a text message. In all cases, the SMS came in right as it crashed or when the phone finally got back into the OS.
[HTC Sensation] deliriousbb:
Same here. Camera personally modded with Virtuous camera APK. Blue hue when in full screen video playback and camera zoom.
[HTC Sensation] Flippin_Sweet:
Hey guys great rom. Only problem I've had is that sometimes out of nowhere it will just look like its booting up and just cycle through the beats audio splash screen. It becomes unresponsive and I have to remove the battery and turn back on.

P.s. it doesn't actually turn off it just goes to the HTC splash then beats audio

Anyone else had this problem?
[HTC Sensation] squeeish:
Yes that's the bootlooping thing everyone's talking about.
[HTC Sensation] deliriousbb:
Yes, it has been mentioned on previous posts prior on 3.6.0 that it boot loops. Guess we just have to wait for 3.6.1 to fix it. Thanks Mike for all your hard work and dedication.

the 5x5 drawer mod erases the quick settings mod have to flash the 5x5 first then the quick settings to have them both
[HTC Sensation] The Illest 619:
been on this since day one and have never gotten a bootloop... kinda curious to whats really causing this as everyone experiences it at different times.

im on 3.6.0, no sense ++, faux123 kernel 1.9, with faux clock, and daemon set on bypass. quick settings, camera mod, battery mod installed

oh and i used to get the blue hue on zoom but i dont have it anymore... could be the 1.8 kernel as thats the only big thing ive changed. dont really know though.
[HTC Sensation] korrel2008:
Same here never have strange things..also on kernel 1.9 with 1.79mhz overclock...guess that some people dont do things the way they should, or the phones hardware is slightly different then others...mine is perfect :D
[HTC Sensation] ivo34:
Same problem for me,this happens with Sense but not when I use SPB shell 3d, also the app DSP sound manager is crashing when Beats audio is on, otherwise everything's fine!
[HTC Sensation] ifti_a:
my 3.6.0 rom (1.9 kernerl) seems to be fine generally

only problem im having is installing mods

if i install apm mod, camera mod and crt mod,

my rom restarts when its about to turn off the screen.(crt mod)

i had the same problem with 3.1.1 as it was doing exactly the same thing....

any ideas
[HTC Sensation] gauravdhure994:
search few pages back....APM mod 3.6.0 is avilable
[HTC Sensation] sowen222:
That's correct. No, you're not modifying anything, but the HTC manager said the Sensation 1730mAh battery is a "modified" Evo 3D battery, and I was just pointing out that the only modification was that, for the Sensation, they were putting the label on the other side so it faced outwards.

The temperature readouts on the Evo 3D battery work perfectly in the Sensation.
[HTC Sensation] bfspider:
I see now, thanks. :)

Hi,

i would lke to know about the RADIO flashing..

i planing to flash Android Revolution HD but i read that i need to flash the radio too?

I m now on WWE Stock ROM.

How do i flash the Radio?
[HTC Sensation] FayezZ:
GREAT ROM, Mike. Thanks for all the hard work. I'm loving 3.6.0.

Ran into the following issue today, though: While playing back 1080p videos I had recorded earlier in the day, my phone reboot and got stuck in a reboot loop. A battery pull fixed it. I don't have any mods (e.g. the bitrate selector) installed, and I was using the SD card supplied with the phone (never had any problems with it).

Thanks again.

Hi Guys, I flashed Faux123 Kernel 0.1.9, 1.56 GHz version and then flashed the Modified Sensation Thermal Throttler Configuration.

If I wanted to get rid of the Modified Sensation Thermal Throttler Configuration would I just need to reflash the kernel?

Plus is the Thermal Patch just enforcing a lower temp limit to protect the phone.

Are people using the Faux123 Kernel 0.1.9 running the Thermal Patch or not?

Thanks for any opinions or info on this.
[HTC Sensation] sowen222:
I assumed that since you had found the 0.1.9 kernel page and knew enough about flashing a kernel, that you could just read the first post on the kernel page where there is plainly a detailed change-log for all versions of faux123's kernels. So it seemed lazy to ask for someone to read the page for you and/or to copy-and-paste the change-log to here.

Regardless, my rudeness was uncalled for, and I apologise. :o
[HTC Sensation] konsti23:
So this means I can go to any HTC dealer and ask for an EVO3D battery, and put it into the Sensation (flipping it upside down) and that's it? Sorry for asking, but I wanna be really sure...
[HTC Sensation] sowen222:
Absolutely correct.

HTC BA S590 1730 mAh (HTC Evo 3D), SKU: 35H00164-00M
[HTC Sensation] awesam:
Yes, just flip it over. its been reported that it fits perfectly.
[HTC Sensation] konsti23:
Thank you, gotta do this!! :D
[HTC Sensation] sowen222:
The build.prop gets modified during install with settings which can be specific to your provider/radio etc. I would recommend you not use someone else's build.prop! If you have lost/damaged yours, the easiest way to get it back is to:

boot into recovery

do a nandroid backup

re-flash the ROM

clear cache

clear dalvik cache

reboot

You will then have a fresh build.prop suitable for your provider/radio.
[HTC Sensation] awesam:
write down your radio model before you flash over, in case you need to revert back :)

or just do a back up on your entire rom.

flash new radio via recovery mode (vol- and power)

Hey mike I wonder if you could maybe work on this DLNA issue everyone has been having? Maybe throw in a custom app of yours to stream media better if you have one. This HTC gallery.just ain't cuttin it. Thanks mike I know you a busy man and this thread is huge so maybe I'll pm you if this post gets lost in the mix. Thanks
[HTC Sensation] sowen222:
I think you'll be quite happy you did.

Check out this page for info.

Although it's "only" 14% more capacity, it lasts - surprisingly - over 30% longer with heavy use. I'm not certain, but I think the difference is that the battery stays at a useable voltage longer, before the sharp drop close to 0%. It seems to handle heavy use better than the stock 1520mAh battery. The other big difference is that the battery runs very cool in comparison to the 1520mAh battery.
[HTC Sensation] ZeroCooL02:
DLNA issue?

That will be greats... DLNA doesn't work for me too...

Hope we'll have a issue soon!:rolleyes:
[HTC Sensation] korrel2008:
i have ordered one also, think it will be here monday or tuesday :)....now mike isnt here much the last few days, hope he will make a rom soon with sense 3.5 i have heard it runs a lot smoother then the current one....goodmorning btw :)
[HTC Sensation] sowen222:
He indicated a few pages back that HTC will be bringing out 3.5 for the Sensation and that he'll be creating a version of his ROM with it "soon". As I understand it, he will be making two versions, one with Sense 3.0 and the other with 3.5.
[HTC Sensation] ifti_a:
Well my situation is weird.....

I installed 3.6.0 then the following roms

Apm for 3.6.0

Quick settings for 3.6.0

Camera mod for 3.6.0

A Battery Mod

All work fine

Only after I install CRT mod for 3.6.0

The Rom reboots when it screen timing out......

I tried CRT mod for 3.1.1 same thing

I tried CRT mod for 2.*.* and its fine!

I have exact same problem when setting up 3.1.1....

Any ideas ?

[HTC Sensation] stanny2k:
I've got a question regarding titanium backup.

I've installed the 3.6.0 ROM. Installed all my apps, setup my desktop screen exactly how I want it & finally FROZE via titanium backup pro, all the applications I don't want showing in my drawer.

Can anyone give me a dummies guide on how to make a carbon copy of my exact setup please? So that when I install a new update like 3.6.1, I can just run that backup file and it will freeze all my unwanted applications & set my desktop back to how it was..

Do I need to buy a different piece of software to achieve this?

Thank you
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
I think its worth to report it to faux123 kernel thread if anyone else can confirm it.

I have 2 questions.

Is it normal that when I film with stereo sound the quality of the sound is very bad?

And when I'm filming and zoom, the colors are changing?
[HTC Sensation] superman63:
wonder how that matches up to the Anker 1900mah i would much rather have an HTC battery i have seen some people say the Anker actualy runs at about 1730 or so and the temp is off great suggestion tho sowen

---------- Post added at 02:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:43 AM ----------

by the way mike and all found a killer beats lockring in the themes section and the wallpaper but i think i saw that here some where but it really completes your revolution xe rom my phone is smokin i just keep showing it off turning it on around people thats pathetic lol you have done an incredible job mike cant wait for future changes XCELLENT!!!!
[HTC Sensation] konsti23:
Thanxx again, already ordered!! Waiting now... :)
[HTC Sensation] sowen222:
I have tried and tested both extensively. Here are my findings:

Both batteries are 1mm thicker than the 1520mAh battery, and both run cooler than the 1520mAh battery.

The Anker is consistently measured to be 1700mAh using professional equipment. Underneath the white label, the numbers "1700" are also visible. The temperature is not reported correctly (missing thermal contact for the Sensation). In the end, I sent it back for a refund due to fraudulent advertising.

The HTC 1730mAh battery lasts longer and runs cooler to the touch than even the Anker, and the temperature is reported correctly. It is, however, about €12 euro more expensive, but I figure the safety of my expensive Sensation and a fully functioning HTC battery sold by an honest vendor is worth the extra money.

Note: many Sensations have a known issue with regard to current leakage, caused by a grounding pin which does not touch the case. This does not affect all Sensations, but it may affect yours, especially with a slightly thicker battery (HTC, Anker or Chichitec). I don't know if the Sensation XE design has been corrected for this, but you can detect it and fix it very easily by checking this post.

These are my findings. Others are welcome to draw other conclusions based on other priorities.
[HTC Sensation] konsti23:
Exams

Hello Mike

Ho went your exams? Hope everything is ok.

Have a nice day!!
[HTC Sensation] superman63:
great info you have done the homework i had heard about the pin and connection but i bet the small thickness difference make the sliding case fit better:D lol thanx for the info sowen i will pick up the HTC battery tomorrow
[HTC Sensation] sowen222:
you're welcome.

apologies to those who consider this Off-Topic, however people want to make their sensation as much like an XE as possible, and the extra juice is really handy, especially when running the phone at 1.5GHz. with this ROM + the HTC battery, the phone is as close to the XE specs as you can get without buying the beats earphones! ;) i try to be thorough and objective in my comparisons, although i admit i am probably biased against fraudulent vendors ;)
[HTC Sensation] Duv'orynn:
Anyone knows how to get a hold on ShootMe app?
[HTC Sensation] sowen222:
If you just want to make screen-shots, you can do that by changing a setting in build.prop and rebooting. See the first page, Q25.

Use ES File Explorer, and make sure you enable both root functions in the settings (in order to mount system read/write, so you can save the build.prop file).

Once enabled, you press the power-button and the "home" button, and screen-shots are saved in your DCIM directory.

Problem

I have a problem with watch on 3.6.0 since flashing it won't play my purchased movies I get unable to download license followed by unknown error has anyone else had this? Tried redownloading too
[HTC Sensation] gilla409:
I have a quick question...

My device seems to be running slower since flashing 3.6.0, though I didn't perform a superwipe before flashing. Would it help matters if I did a superwipe, then restored a CWM backup of 3.6.0? I just want to avoid having to set up everything from scratch again, as I always run into problems and lose data with other backup apps.

Does it Work with bricked kernal 0.91
[HTC Sensation] omar302:
Hi mike,

Is it possible to make thr CRT only for the screen off? Perhaps a link to a guide? I tried searching on how to do it, but couldn't find. Found only things related to Samsung phones.
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
A few things. First my phone is running quite nicely, no reboots, no bootloops heavy usage.

I played with a few kernels and found them all to perform similarly. Am now on Faux 1.9 and am quite happy.

It's preferred to boot up first, then back to recovery to add mods. Anybody who didn't and are having issues may try that.

Yes, the thermal patch is a daemon that throttles back the clock speeds if the temperature exceeds certain values. The thermal patch is a file system/etc/thermald.conf. Just deleting it is a very bad idea as your phone would have not have any protection against overheating. This is part of the ROM, not included in the kernel, so a reflash of the kernel won't affect the thermald.conf.

You can modify the values therein, or extract the thermald.conf from Mike's ROM and use that instead. I am using the file from Faux with Faux 1.9 and it's fine for me.

Before mucking around in the weeds, make sure you backup everything, and make copies of the files you're changing/replacing.

Custom modifications for 3.6., mistake in link
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
It is a daemon that throttles back CPU speed as certain temperatures are achieved, then returns to higher clock speeds when the temperature goes down. It's like a safety valve to prevent your phone from melting down.

It is a file: sytem/etc/thermald.conf. It is applied whenever ROM is running, you don't do anything.

As you can see from the attached screenshot it has values for thresholds -- maximum temperature for different CPU speeds, threshold_clr -- temperature at which CPU will be allowed to revert to higher max, and maximum CPU clock speeds at each condition.

I don't exactly know what the temperature numbers refer to, definitely not °C (wow, that would be hot), and unlikely to be °F because nothing is reported in °F, so we're in the dark here.

This is Modified Thermal D from Faux123: http://rootzwiki.com/showthread.php....7)OC-1.78GHz-BFQ-SLQB-SmartAss-MinMax-Sep-01

Mike has different values (lower, I think).

That's what I know. I find that Faux's values work for me, with minimal interference and no major overheating.

Go forth and learn, and test if you like, Grasshopper.

Media playback + games

Hi all,

I hope someone can help me, I hope I have a trivial error:

1. Media playback is choppy (tried simple avi's), I would say its around 15-20fps.

2. Angry Birds is also choppy (roughly again 15-20 fps)

System: Revolution 3.6.0 with Faux 0.1.9 with 1.5Ghz

I tried to install a CM7 build, also with Faux 0.1.9 (CM7) kernel, and Angry Birds is very smooth.

Also, when comparing Quadrant in Sense vs CM7, 3d performance is nearly double under CM7...

What amI doing wrong?

Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] sowen222:
Just a thought... Using the Daemon Controller, try setting the "wake gov" to "performance" (instead of "on demand").
[HTC Sensation] i900frenchaddict:
ChainFire is a great dev, his Bench app is not such an useless crap that reflects nothing. Right, there's a point where having bigger score is useless.

(and honnestly, I think people here wouldn't keep on criticizing CF-bench if their results were huge loooooooool)

At least, gamer or not gamer, here is something completly sure that I've tried, modifying the sys files of my Sensation to test:

-People having under 6000 overall score at 1.5Ghz or 1.7ghz can be 100% sure their CPU1 is offline most of the time, not to say always offline.(verified on my device)

-People having between 6000 and 7200 at 1.5ghz have a normal behaviour for their CPU1.(like 3.1.1 on my device)

-Forcing CPU1 online gives results over 8200.(well...not with Faux123 kernel that will give about 7900 here)

Conclusion: if not a gamer, having about 6000 is OK, having under 6000 means some apps or parts of the UI may start lagging, or being visibly less smooth. (Sygic, Launcher Pro, 3D live wallpapers, browsing through photos in the gallery, etc)

That's just my two cents, and conclusions of some testings when I had low performances. Since I now have huuuuuuge perfs again (8294, but not for daily life, just to test the ultimate config possible), I absolutly do not complain here :D
[HTC Sensation] korrel2008:
Glad i have 7500 with 1.79ghz ondemand (with faux kernel :) )
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
I never meant to imply that benches are useless. I use them all of the time to compare before and after changes to see what is happening.

In this case, there were actual issues which were confirmed with bench scores.

We are still having issues with control of CPU1. The Bricked kernel addresses them. I believe improvements in the Daemon Controller coming will also attempt to work on this as well.

Since I am not a gamer, absolute scores aren't important to me. Obviously they can make a difference under the extreme processing conditions found in games and 3d functions.

I just don't get when a diagnostic tool becomes part of a competition.

P
