[HTC Sensation] mrg02d:
Ahh, I just noticed that I used the faux kernel that was without the OC Daemon. Should I use the one WITH the OC Daemon (I didnt use the patch for always on dual cpu).

Can I just flash this as is, or do I need to do something about my current kernel first? DO I need to wipe anything?

Matt
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
With dual-core script?
[HTC Sensation] rumpleforeskin:
If there a Dual core 0.5 change log?
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
- prevent from changing ondemand gov to userspace gov
[HTC Sensation] zimphishmonger:
Can you clarify the difference between Dual core script v .5 and v.6? Also, would you recommend sticking w/ the Dual core script or using this modified script which detects for an O/C daemon?

Appreciate the help!
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
Where is v0.6?
[HTC Sensation] mrg02d:
I was using the faux kernel without OC Daemon and without the patch.

I found, via cpustats, that the phone NEVER went into deep sleep. I DID however notice that it spends most of its time at 192Mhz when the screen is off. :D So I guess that would imply deep sleep, its just that cpustats must not recognize that as being deep sleep.:)

Soon my battery will be charged. I will then calibrate and see how the battery life is.

So far, so good! I think CM7 would be hard pressed to be much faster.

[HTC Sensation] BigBoppa:
It is atm better to use SetCPU than OCD with the faux kernel. So you did everything right, just install SetCPU and configure as you like.
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
I'm using faux kernel as well and my stats shows that my device was 68,71% in deep sleep :)
[HTC Sensation] GabrielSousa:
i tried your v5 and v6 and the cpu1 changes to userspace gov :(

only v3 stays on ondemand
[HTC Sensation] mrg02d:
Hmmm...I noticed that my phone is scaling between 192Mhz and 1512Mhz as I use the phone as is, without any CPU app. I may see how things are without setCPU for now. I dont care for it and its asking for permission 1200times an hour, but if I am missing out then I am all for it!:D

So, should I setCPU or not setCPU with my setup? (Faux kernal without OC daemon plus this ROM)

Matt
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
I will investigate it mate.
[HTC Sensation] zimphishmonger:
Version 6 was linked to HERE , I just noticed the file name included .6, wasnt sure if it was a typo. Not sure which version to use at the moment, currently using the modified script and CPU0 is ondemand.

Also check CPU stats, phone has been up and plugged in for an hour yet only 2min 42 sec of deep sleep on a STOCK kernel. Doesnt seem right to me ......
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
Ah this one, yeah it was not official one. So cpu0 and 1 stays on ondemand while screen on? That's good!
[HTC Sensation] zimphishmonger:
When using the modified script that detects whether there is an OC daemon or not, it keeps cpu0 as ondemand. Have yet to try v.4 or v.5 official. Does the "modified" script look like a better permanent solution as it attempts to detect OC daemon, SetCPU, etc instead of blindly managing it?
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
Yeah, modified script is very good, I will put it to the first post soon :)
[HTC Sensation] remcoros:
nice to hear mike, tx.

still tweaking it based on input from people sending me logs.
[HTC Sensation] GabrielSousa:
GREAT WORK, with this script cpu1 stays ondemand,

you can had to your log the govs ?
[HTC Sensation] tibere86:
I have Faux kernel WITHOUT OC Daemon installed and am using CPU master. I do not have a "Smartass" governor option. Only "ondemand" and "performance". What am I doing wrong?
[HTC Sensation] zimphishmonger:
Excellent, eliminates my need to choose between the scripts :) Looking forward to it being included in future versions (hopefully). Else, ill check the OP ;)

Thanks for writing this script, its quite useful.
[HTC Sensation] GabrielSousa:
is asking a lot, put 2 vars,

for the user to choose the govs for cpu0 and cpu1 ? when is awake ?

is a good thing to change the gov on cpu0 when spleeping to conservative ?
[HTC Sensation] zimphishmonger:
I dont understand ur question, and its not necessary to include the ENTIRE quoted post. CPU0 is locked to a ~380mhz when screen is off, so I dont think you need to adjust the governor for sleep.

PS. Deep Sleep doesnt seem to occur while charging, just something I noticed
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
First the good news -- 3.0.3 with DC 0.5 and stock kernel is absolutely flying for me. Incredibly fast, smooth, stable and good battery life.

For some reason Faux's kernels give me crappy data performance. Other than that, nice kernel but no good for me.

I should be happy, but will test the modified script with some other OCD kernels and will report back. I had good luck with Unity on Leedroid, so I may fool around with V8 and new script. Will report back.

Mike I can't thank you enough for your hard work, you ROM is an order of magnitude better than anything out there.

P.
[HTC Sensation] remcoros:
From what I understand (not 100% sure, just observations), stock kernel only supports ondemand.

I will think about this. for now it is just max frequency.
[HTC Sensation] BladeKnight:
turn off bluetooth...
[HTC Sensation] zimphishmonger:
Its a setting. A music player is set to automatically start playing when connected via BT. the problem is worse if u have multiple music players as they fight who should "accept" controls via BT. I would check each and every music player (if u have multiple) and ensure "headset controls" are disabled.
[HTC Sensation] BladeKnight:
wow there's a v.6....
[HTC Sensation] mrg02d:
I can confirm that my phone sleeps now that I am charged up and off the charger!

Also, should we be using setCPU or the like with the faux without OC daemon, or just let the thing run itself? I dont see what setCPU is supposed to do here that the kernel + ROM isnt doing? It looks to be scaling my frequencies....Even better so than setCPU used to do? Maybe I am utterly confused at what I am looking at?

Matt
[HTC Sensation] zimphishmonger:
NO, its not official, has no improvements over v.5 or the modified script. Either use v5 or the modded script
[HTC Sensation] ahoslc:
Hmm

When I installed the dual-core 0.5 script after ARHD 3.0.3 with faux kernal 0.6 with no OCD and set cpu to 1.5ghz it and set on boot it shows up it's on scaling to 1188 Max but slider is all the way to 1512000 any ideas?
[HTC Sensation] iJohnny:
You need to edit main script. Scaling Max.

Etc/dual core
[HTC Sensation] ahoslc:
What is the best way to do this?
[HTC Sensation] exb0:
Throw the phone inside a microwave.

[HTC Sensation] GabrielSousa:
variables ....
[HTC Sensation] iJohnny:
You can use Es file explorer. In settings set that you have root access and mount system as writable. Then go and edit the file.

Change from 1188000 to 1512000
[HTC Sensation] ahoslc:
Ok well I pushed the custom script instead and now seems to be working or am I missing something?

After updating to 3.0.3 the unlock ring is not working right and sometime it doesn't recognizes my touch
[HTC Sensation] xplod4202:
Clear the cache, check md5 sum, if that fails, back up super wipe and reinstall.
[HTC Sensation] JazzMac251:
Man, you guys weren't kidding with the speed of ARHD + Faux's kernel and the unoffical DC patch. Best I've seen yet.

I do have a quick question though. While on WiFi calling, my mobile data connection doesn't seem to turn off completely. It downgrades to "G" but doesn't seem to shut off completely. Is there a reason for this?
[HTC Sensation] bachviet:
Can someone put up a download link for the modified DC script? I tried to create and new file and pushed to /system/etc/dual_core but it didn't work for me. Thanks.

Edit: I copied and pasted the modified script to main_script using ES Explorer and it worked now. Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] i1magic:
Problem is not due to this ROM. *Deleted*

Its because the competitor Samsung is going to release Galaxy S II -LTE Edition- :D
[HTC Sensation] BladeKnight:
so they are now competing...i hope Nokia can came along with this...:p
[HTC Sensation] jmwils3:
and give us what, nokia's hybrid of symbian and wp7? :P no thanks. but yeah, I saw that post on my twitterfeed, it hacks me off when phone companies do that, especially so soon after releasing the initial one, which basically hoses those of us who are big fans of their products and buy them when they release the FIRST time :/
[HTC Sensation] JazzMac251:
bump .....
[HTC Sensation] BladeKnight:
thats why, Money is the root of all Evil.....:D
[HTC Sensation] jmwils3:
thank god for other means of getting phones, for those of us too broke to shell out huge bucks every 6 months for the new superphone. I was abble to trade up to a sensation from a g2 (had a g2x for a little while in between, but missed sense, oddly). Being a broke college student is no fun sometimes :/
[HTC Sensation] sentiere:
I finally got installed the Revolution HD ...

I have a question, My phone is Tmobile 4G but the indicator shows just H on it, wont turn to 4G, also is there any program to change the battery indicator with percentages on it ?

Thanks in advance.
[HTC Sensation] BladeKnight:
H=HSDPA=4G
[HTC Sensation] BladeKnight:
i agree....having a superphone is much expensive, work hard and find extra job for this superphones....
[HTC Sensation] bachviet:

[HTC Sensation] Masrawy:
I have ARHD 3.0.3 + Dual Core patch 0.5 + Faux123 0.0.6 kernel Daemon ready, but when I open Daemon Controler the frequencies fields are blank, I can't change anything. Don't know why.

I even changed the max freq in the main script... anybody has this issue? anybody has a solution?

thanks!
[HTC Sensation] ragnarokx:
Awesome ROM! Perhaps the first/second post should be updated since the 2.X add-ons work with 3.X.
[HTC Sensation] FiddleGoose:
-methed one by GiZZy (the led light will not turn on)

1. cut out a strip of plastic that covers only the middle 2 pins between the battery and the phone

2. plug phone in charger

3. place strip between battery and phone on the 2 middle pins

4. put battery in place (2 middle pins isolated)

5. wait to charge for about 10 minutes

6. remove everything, plug battery in and power on

^^^ Just tried this and it worked perfectly. Booted my phone up, going to flash new recovery.

So for those of you in here with the recovery charging issue, use above method!
[HTC Sensation] ragnarokx:
The Flip Clock Widget will only show my state, and not my city for weather as it has on previous ROMs. I tried what was suggested in the first post:

[HTC Sensation] nexicon:
I think I'm having a radio issue. I flashed the radio Mike said to flash and after using it I've actually been very disappointed with it. My signal and strength and speed were great before and now this new one seems to have made it weaker. It's really frustrating. Any fixes you can recommend Mike? I really need this to be like how it was. I saved my phone for CM7 but it was taking too long so my virginity broke with my first ROM take over with android revolution. Please help. Thank you
[HTC Sensation] omar302:
I am no Developer, but the first thing that comes to my mind is that we will soon be getting an "Officia HTCl" 1.5GHz Kernel!!
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
Which kernel? I tried Faux kernel and got terrible data speeds and connections.

Back to stock kernel and I'm fine. If you are on anything but stock, try going back.

The only custom kernel I tried that didn't affect data was Unity V8. I will try it later today if I can get my phone running (new recovery killed my battery) along with modified script and OC Daemon. Until it's tested, I recommend stock kernel with recommended radio and RIL (See my sig).

P.
[HTC Sensation] Hgaara:
I get the same issue. How do you clear the cache from those apps?
[HTC Sensation] BladeKnight:
no problem with kernel my friend...its the hardware...:D

As a music freak:****!
[HTC Sensation] affliction_emrah:
Agreed %200
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
Our CPU was meant to work on 1.5 GHz, HTC downclocked it. Marketing. Now they will release Sensation with 1.5 GHz (the same chipset, just not downclocked) and people will buy it anyway :)
[HTC Sensation] lws803:
Woah should I set the max cpu frequency to 1.5ghz then? I feel alot comfortable with that :) Just not sure what side effects there may be
[HTC Sensation] cyberde:
Rooted, S-OFF and flashes my new Sensation yesterday and so far everything is smooth. Flashed the dual core update and now my phone seems a little sluggish (scrolling through menu's stutters). So I guess I am one of those where it doesn't improve. Or do I need another kernel?

If not, how do I revert this patch?

And I miss the mods like Battery percentage...
[HTC Sensation] omar302:
Mike, are you aware of this?

http://www.xda-developers.com/android/careful-what-you-do-on-your-evo-3d-you-are-being-watched/

I just checked my phone & it seems logging is enabled.
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
Yes, I've seen this. Actually I removed all checkin services but this might be running. I will take a look and probably disable it ;)
[HTC Sensation] squeeish:
Just flash the original ROM image again. And I agree, my LauncherPro is stuttering compared to non-dual-core. And battery seems to go mad; battery stats report awake 100% of the time.

I've already flashed back to the non-dual core one. Still the best ;)
[HTC Sensation] J.Swalen:
It is the native frequency of the processor. So you will hardly experience any difference in battery life also. Only thing is, you need to change to faux Kernel as well
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
I'm pretty sure all you have to do is remove the file "main_script" from /system/etc/dual_core and reboot.

P.
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
Yes, that all that have to be done :)
[HTC Sensation] cyberde:
Thanks mate +1! Also my battery has been on 100% for a whole day now hehe, can't be right...

Thanks mate +1!

[edit]

Stupid question, I can't delete it with the terminal emulator... It says Read-only file system, am i missing something (quite noobish i know)

[edit 2]

Seems sysrw/sysro does the trick :)

[edit 3]

Removed the file and now menu's are very slick. Why is the dual core patch causing this weird behaviour?
[HTC Sensation] robertmichael91:
I don't understand.

I have went back and forth between this rom and the coredroid rom both claiming to be for the Sensation 4G. However, EVERY SINGLE TIME I install either damn rom, it says "sensation no sensation 4G files installed." I've emailed both devs several times and no response has been given. I never had this problem with the devs on the XDA Samsung Vibrant forums. PLEASE someone help me! I didn't pay for a 4g model phone to install another phones system. Thanks. Sorry if this sounded...rude. Just pulling my hair out trying to figure this out.
[HTC Sensation] mahdibassam:
Hey guys.

Just wondering if i should install the dual core patch ? I currently have android revolution 3.0.3. I get 10-15 hours battery life but performance is nowhere near my old Galaxy S II. ?

Does it take Amy battery life ?
[HTC Sensation] Joshhedge:
'H' still means 4G... I think you need to download a 4g script and flash it from the front page. Mike probably doesn't respond as so many people have already asked this question in this thread.
[HTC Sensation] the_scotsman:
Personally, I'm only using faux's kernel, not the patch and my performance is pretty good! Battery is good too.
[HTC Sensation] Joshhedge:
Download the 0.5 dual core patch from the front page along with faux 0.6 kernel and flash it in recovery mode.
[HTC Sensation] BladeKnight:
are they watching us? :mad:
[HTC Sensation] mortenna:
Guarantee??

Hi

This ROM looks really nice. I've had a HD2 for a couple of years, and then i used to experiment with differetn ROMS.

Now i just got this amazing phone.

But i wonder, if i change ROM, how is the guarantee then??

If i have to send it in to get a repair, will they deny doing it if i change rom??
[HTC Sensation] BladeKnight:
can we sue them?:D
[HTC Sensation] BladeKnight:
if you use the HTC program to unlock your sensation. then your warranty is void...if you use S-OFF revolutionary...then your safe..you can revert your phone antyime you like....
[HTC Sensation] cyberde:
Is the faux 0.6 kernel better than stock?

Because I had the dual core patch running on stock kernel and performance in menu's were sluggish.
[HTC Sensation] BladeKnight:
lots of goodfeedback faux .6...you have to install auto mount...pc connection issues....
[HTC Sensation] Joshhedge:
I think it takes a couple of reboots for the performance to become better, did for me at least. For me the Faux kernel is so much better, but I have overclocked to 1.5ghz.
[HTC Sensation] cyberde:
Hmm, other kernels like RCMix or Unity don't seem to have connection issues... But do they work as good as faux' kernel?
[HTC Sensation] BladeKnight:
i don't use custom kernels my friend...i used stock kernels only....but you can search the thread for other kernel issues
[HTC Sensation] deguz_kusuma:
how to oc ? just using set CPU?

i use setCPU and all revert to default 1.2ghz, hows urs ?
[HTC Sensation] BladeKnight:
check the first post about how to oc...Sir Mike put some guides
[HTC Sensation] cyberde:
It seems to be enabled on my phone as well as i have files over 0kb in those folders... Why would HTC do this, bastards :p

mike, if you can disable this, it would be awesome!
[HTC Sensation] BladeKnight:
where can we check this?
[HTC Sensation] cyberde:
Have a look at http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16158314&postcount=2

Look at the heading Whats this about Spyware?
[HTC Sensation] i900frenchaddict:
Sorry to tell that you'll never achieve the same performances with your Sensation than with your Galaxy S2, at least not until the next Android release. Many people try to justify their purchase or to reinsure themselves about the Sensation, claiming the poor fps we get in Benchmarks 3D scenes (not talking about bench overall scores here, just fps we get in Nenamark2, Quadrant, Antutu 3D scenes) are not a proof that games and apps will be slow too. I say they're wrong, we can't have slow fps in bench and fast in games.

Also many people who bought a Sensation are noobs that are stunned by the Sensation because it's their very first Android device and they had no opportunity to test the same apps on a GS2.

We must overclock to 1.7ghz to have "about" similar performances to the GS2 at stock CPU frequency, so yes it will kill the battery way too fast.

As for what I've tried, the dual-core patches didn't give me a single extra fps on Tegra2 games or PSX/N64 emulators. I suppose it's visible only with Sense
[HTC Sensation] BladeKnight:
tnx my friend
[HTC Sensation] snowblindd:
True, even though sensation in my opinion is better in some aspects than the SGS2, if we take raw performance the Galaxy2 wins by far...too bad, sensation had the potential ( still does ). Waiting fir ICS
[HTC Sensation] the_scotsman:
One thing Ive noticed but forgot to mention is thatMarket is dreadfully slow and well, crappy. Any reason?
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
This is how new Market behaves, it's really crap. The worse thing google ever done. I recommend you flashing the old one from the second post :)
[HTC Sensation] Joshhedge:
It's not that the Sensations SoC is a lot worse than the GS2 its that ours is asynchronous and thus works in a different way to the exynos. I think once the devs can figure everything else things will get a bit more competitive. Just remember ours has better power efficency as the cores don't always work together unless a task is fully stressing the other one, not sure how the DC patch effects that though.
[HTC Sensation] ouioui01:
Please, stay on topic...

[HTC Sensation] HannoSLM:
this is the biggest bull**** i've heard regarding the comparison between the two phones.

no comments
[HTC Sensation] eisteh:
HTC just fails in every aspect to deliver proper software. As much as Samsungs Touchwiz sucks very, very hard, at least they managed to release a working base for their phones. Sure, the Sensation may still be a bit behind, but who cares? If people like solid built devices with Sense (if not as launcher, at least in some parts of the OS it's still visible) they go for the Sensation, if people want a raw power plastic phone they buy the SGS2.

If HTC finally managed to release something that doesn't have over 9000 bugs and maybe an Icecream Sandwich update once it's out, we'll have a very powerful phone nevertheless.
[HTC Sensation] BladeKnight:
all i can say my friend...at least i didn't bought a superphone made of cheap plastic....:D

[HTC Sensation] lws803:
Well just take a look at the xiaomi M1, a new MIUI based phone that has the exact same processor as us just that not underclocked to 1.2ghz.

It already has a benchmark which is equivalent or higher at times than the sgs2. This shows that the processor of the sensation when set to 1.5ghz is equivalent to the sgs2. Although benchmarks may not be high as you think its due to the qhd resolution the graphics of the phone has to support. The xiaomi m1 and the Sgs2 has a normal WVGA resolution. So please, enough of the bull**** comparisons, if you wanna compare, compare a phone that has the same processor as the sensation but not underclocked and not a qhd res phone. As of now, I would like you to compare with the Xiaomi M1 oh and about the fps not scoring well in benchmarks? Its due to the processor not running at full dual core during that, HTC has designed the processors such that only dual cores would be activated at the right time, you'll have to stress the cpu enough for them to be activated
