Questions relate to CD ICS release

Hello,

I can't wait to flash CD ICS release, but i have a few questions.

1. To flash ICS ROM is required a firmware change. New firmware includes among other things newer HBOOT and radio version which doesn't work with GB ROM version, right?

2. So What is order of steps, to go back from ICS to CD GB ROM version?

3. Just for sure, if necessary, is it possible to flash a stock RUU directly from ICS ROM version?
[HTC Sensation] aortega:
Guys, just to let you all know, ics has things that can't be fixed yet and no developer can get it fixed, this is not on Sergio, but this is Sergio's best job ever, being said that, you all can assume that this is the best ics Rom so far, so, when you flash this new Rom, before asking or compliant about something, we ask you all to understand this and read, read and read again, there is a thread with ics problems you can get to understand this better( will post in a moment the link for this thread), for those not knowing nothing about ics, it is like going from winxp to win7, it is different in some things, but much better than gb, Oki?.

As Ray said, if you don't want to deal with this, flash back gb.

The Rom is working great, beautiful, great skinned and great performance as always,

Just wait a little to Sergio to finish it.

Thanks guys :)
[HTC Sensation] aortega:
Oki, this is the link I was talking about, you can find a lot of info right here, again, please, read fellows:)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=20571520
[HTC Sensation] aortega:
Oki, to flash ics, it is better to get supercid, flash boot 1.27 which is firmware package 3.24, because this is sense 3.6, then clean install, if you want to go back to gb, flash back your former hboot and clean install again, that's it.

Edit: Ooops, forgot, ics Rom, has the latest ril and radio built in.
[HTC Sensation] turkish-soldier:
i have this on bootloader:

***LOCKED***

HBOOT-1.20.0000

RADIO-10.14.9035.02_2

is it a problem if it says locked?? and which radio do you suggest on the new ics rom?
[HTC Sensation] aortega:
No problem by being like that bro (locked) , don't worry, but you will have to flash the hboot I just said, the latest ril and radio are in the Rom already :)
[HTC Sensation] turkish-soldier:
Ok thanks bro for the info:)
[HTC Sensation] bx10r:
Hey ortega. After testing this ICS rom what are some of the problems you experienced 1st hand? The Link to the problems was posted a page http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1405457 but in some cases it says "if" you experienced not "you will". Hope I make sense. I'm just trying to see if the problems that we'll come across are something I rather not deal with until a 100% stable rom is leaked/shared(hopefully). If not i'll stay on 3.3 since it hasnt given me any problmes as of yet. Thanks and again as alwways GREAT JOB
[HTC Sensation] aortega:
Hey bro, I couldn't tell you right now because my testing is not done yet as tmous model, will let you know if possible before final release :)
[HTC Sensation] RayHeath:
For me, the testing is working great. It´s smooth, and fast. You have several different choices with the kernel. All my apps, and network are working beautifully. Really no major problems on my end. :)
[HTC Sensation] bx10r:
Sounds Good, hopefully it will be something I can deal with . Being on TMOUS as well it will be nice to know...Thanks

---------- Post added at 05:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:53 PM ----------

COOOL, Hey Ray are you on TMOUS? I'll start reading on the install as of now just in case...:)
[HTC Sensation] turkish-soldier:
Noob question/what is tmous??:phaha,sorry but by asking these questions you learn a lot:)
[HTC Sensation] bx10r:
T-Mobile U.S
[HTC Sensation] aortega:
Tmous means USA and EU means Europe model bro ;)
[HTC Sensation] RayHeath:
No, I´m here in Germany. Mine is the EU version. :)
[HTC Sensation] bx10r:
Got you...Thanks. Was confused with your info...Says germany has US flag :) but either way no problems with your testing is 1 check on the "give it a shot" when released side...Thanks Again
[HTC Sensation] ikkifcporto:
what is it for tonight? is what we will have the paperwork for the installation of the Rom? thanks
[HTC Sensation] RayHeath:
lol, I´m an American living in Germany. ;)

It´s basically the same flashing as the last one. :)
[HTC Sensation] turkish-soldier:
ow ok,do you know when it is going to be released?:P is it tonight or tomorrow??(european timezone)
[HTC Sensation] cwibel:
Could You post a link to a firmware which is required to flash a ROM? If i decided to back to GB ROM version is it necessary to back to earlier radio version? As far as i remember, but i'm not sure, radio from ICS version doesn't work on GB, and is it possible to flash a stock RUU directly from ICS ROM version?
[HTC Sensation] alikebab:
Hey there, look at the first page in developing-section n you will find this:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1459767
[HTC Sensation] aortega:
Hi bro, the hboot needed is in the last link I provided, as for the radio, just made that test and the radio installed with ics is working in gb 2.3.5, I would say even better ad for me, my phone seems to have better reception now, but still sensing that.

To flash a stock ruu Rom, need to check that first before giving you an answer, not tried that yet and have not read about it, too much work testing and regular job to do too, but you can go to that link and start reading a bit bro, you will learn a lot if you give it an eye, :)

Thanks for asking :)
[HTC Sensation] :
I've tried flashing stock ROM directly from ICS but was unsuccessful. I had to flash "lower" or "older" firmware in order to flash stock ROM coming from ICS. Hope this helps ;)
[HTC Sensation] cwibel:
Thanks a lot!

Of course i'll read, also will try this radio or it's a waste of time on GB, because we'll get ICS today or tomorrow? ;) thanks a lot for Your help bro!

Thanks a lot!
[HTC Sensation] aortega:
Exactly bro, thanks, that's why I said in the last 2 pages you need to flash former hboot, otherwise, you will run into a bootloop.

Now, ruu stock roms are flashable files through fastboot only, the way to do it from gb, would be, let's say you want to start from scratch and you are on a cd gb xe Rom.

Preferred get supercid, then, you would have to select an ruu stock Rom with the same base, in the case an XE stock Rom, then flash it through fastboot, then start over the process to re-root your phone, that means repeat everything from revolutionary and flash the hboot to be unlocked, eng s-off, then you can flash whatever Rom you like. But coming from ics, not tried yet.

I don't like to give ETA's because I always fail:D:D:D, sorry guys.

Else, read at the link we all have provided around in the last 5 pages please, everything you want to know now is there, thanks guys :)
[HTC Sensation] fknfocused:
Wondering if anyone with battery knowledge could take a look at this and let me know what could be the issue. My phone is starting to reboot/shutdown on me again.

Thanks in advance
[HTC Sensation] aortega:
What kernel are you using?

Are you overclocking?

Was your battery at 100% when you flashed?

Is that happening just after you install or did what?

Let me know bro, there is a bunch of reasons for that :)
[HTC Sensation] johnerz:
That looks likwe you are consuming lots of cpu cycles!

What do you have running in the background?

fire up task manager or the like and have a look
[HTC Sensation] fknfocused:
No overclocking, batt was at 100% when flashed, not sure if you remember but this was a plague a few months back for me. started happening out of the blue. Although Ive been testing Radio's and RILs like crazy past couple days.

fired it up and noticed quite a few things running in the background, along with my widgets. There were some apps running that i did not even start, and android assistant should have killed those at startup. Any words of wisdom to minimize the cpu cycles?
[HTC Sensation] aortega:
Oki. After your first mark, (first white vertical line) count the grids, every grid should represent an hour, what happened there?, it is a big drop, did you reset the phone?, that's the one I am worried about, remember bro?, let me know please :)

Edit: I can see in the graph you have an extended time battery, is it?, or you have the regular one?
[HTC Sensation] TKruzze:
Updated Titanium 4.7.6

One of the best things about a CoreDroid ROM is the attention to detail - even to the included apps. The downside of this is once an app is updated, the CoreDroid skinning is gone. I took the latest release of Titanium Backup (4.7.6) and re-skinned it with Sergio's CoreDroid icons and have attached to this message as an update zip.

If you flash this in recovery, it will replace the System copy of the app with the updated fully-skinned version of Titanium Backup. Enjoy!
[HTC Sensation] fknfocused:
Not sure what happened there. No extended battery, stock one that came with the phone. I'll full charge tonight and monitor tomorrow, maybe pull a logcat to just in case.
[HTC Sensation] aortega:
Well, maybe, that's why, at your right you can see 1923 mAh battery or something like that, you should have 1580 mAh battery, your app is not well calibrated, tap your battery widget to open the app, go into settings and look, then monitoring, change it to 1580, charge your battery again and try it, let me know please. :)

Full transparent Rosie for CD 3.3

tested with CD 3.3 only (first flash Loznov's transparency, then overwrite the rosie.apk in system/apps.

You get:

-Full transparent nav bar

-no page indicator

-left: all apps (as usual)

-middel: phone (as usual)

-right: personalize

-4x5 app drawer

-icons CD skinned

what is not working:

any tweaks with the app drawer

maybe somebody has the clue why not?
[HTC Sensation] fknfocused:
Will try it out and report back. Thanks aortega!
[HTC Sensation] bx10r:
Question for anyone who has installed Lozonw's mods. Do you have a vibrate icon? I dont...just the speaker with an "x" which appears usually on silent mode. I use a widget for my volume control cause works doesnt allow ringing and can never tell if im on vibrate or silent...no big deal just curious if its just me. Not going to unistall cause I think they look great

Now that I have my new Sensation...I love it more and more !!

Great Job !

Well done !

Keep on developing this amazing ROM !
[HTC Sensation] bobsbbq:
Wow! great theme on this one. Glad to see you here in the Sensation forum. Going to try this one out as I love a good themed ROM.
[HTC Sensation] mikeDCMDVA:
So, whats the difference between this and Virtuous?

Any performance besides the theme?
[HTC Sensation] miniterror:
I think they are not comparible.

Cant tell for sure as my device whas initially flashed with cd as a test member

They all have there own settings and tweaks only virtuous has a custom kernel( maybe oc/ov) and sergio still used the stock kernel and tweaked that so i can only suggest to give it a go and see for youreself wich one you like better

I think sergio is waiting for lee his kernel but not sure though:p
[HTC Sensation] mikeDCMDVA:
Ah, thanks a lot for that information!
[HTC Sensation] Lakeshow423:
Thanks Sergio! First time ever running your work, you bring it proper!
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
Before bed last night I set titanium to restore all apps and settings and when I awoke it looked done. I then restored my gravity lwp and some other widgets I had like blik calendar. Did a reboot. However when I did, when my sim lock kb came up (because I set the lock up upon reboot), the screen would first show the wallpaper loading then the kb/keypad then the screen goes blank and the captive buttons light. I left it alone for about 10 minutes and after that all I could do was hit the power button to turn off and on the captive buttons that were lit.

I did a wipe of data and rebooted the phone. I need to narrow down why I guess it's not booting up normally.
[HTC Sensation] drdingdong:
Thanks

Thanks Sergio! Awesome job as usual:):):)
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
Update

Restored apps and data, took off sim lock on boot and reboot. This time it booted normal. I guess sim lock upon boot doesn't play nice with me. Anyone else?

For all that are waiting on the ICS,,, yes we are still workin on a couple of bugs... :) I stated before what Sergio´s goal was, but if we do not think that it´s ready, then it will not be released.... sorry guys. :eek: , but that´s CD. it will definately be released, but there is really one big bug... :confused: I think that we will have this fixed in the next couple of days, but with this bug we can not release sorry to say. It is really just one bug, and not a big one... Sergio does know what the problem is. :)

So we do need another couple of days.... Then it will be released guys. As always.... "Patience is a Virtue" !

we will not, and don´t even wanna begin to release something unstable. :)

Really guys, patience....

Thanks bro, i know that we as the CD team appreciate your comment, but Sergio especially! Thanks again bro....:)

Guys this is what makes CD what it is. One release that is flawless vs. other ROMS that have updates daily to fix bugs and other things. These guys test things internally and perfect them for you!
[HTC Sensation] RayHeath:
Thanks bro, for your positive answer... but don´t get me wrong... If we were able to help in any way, it would be nice to get a hit thanks button also...

What´s really important on our thread.. so that Ortega, tiger, leo, Sergio, Sean, Miniterror, and of course Ray still think that we help a little is this little "Thanks Button".... :D

I know that it may not seem important at the time, but it really is. Sergio, and we the CD team do this in our own free time... This means that we also take time away from our family.... A simple press of the "Thanks Button" would be nice guy and gals...:p;):)

Sorry for the stupid question guys but I am so tired and decided Id flash a rom on my phone. not a very smart thing to do lol.

I was running Trips new MIUI v4 rom and it had a bunch of issues so I figured id come back to CoreDroid but now every time CD trys to boot it bootloops. I did a full wipe. Any ideas.

Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] aortega:
Yeah, go to my banner and get my docs for a clean install bro, hope it helps, let us know if you need something. :)

Did you change firmware? What is your hboot?
[HTC Sensation] fandroid93:
Are you talking about this?

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1E_Bpka_ohnWcCGUKlR9MyprHMEFzvY_jFlUneU93nmo/edit?hl=en_US

I did to flash Insert coin, then flashed MIUI without a firemware change.

My hboot is 1.27.1100
[HTC Sensation] aortega:
Just make a click in my banner and then in the sensation phone image that's it. :)
[HTC Sensation] aortega:
Oki, hold on, you are rooted already, you need to be eng s-off, or s-off at least, so, you are, hboot 1.17 at least, let me know what you have, going to give you the steps right now.
[HTC Sensation] fandroid93:
Yeah im rooted, s-off and super cid.
[HTC Sensation] aortega:
What hboot you have bro?
[HTC Sensation] fandroid93:
What version? If so 1.27.1100. What am I looking for?

O an Insert coin ICS boots fine.
[HTC Sensation] fknfocused:
I didn't look up that Rom but if its ics and you flashed the 1.27hboot then you have to downgrade to either 1.17 or 1.20
[HTC Sensation] aortega:
Oki, if you want to flash gb you will have to downgrade your firmware or hboot, that's why you are having bootloops. Then copy the Rom to your sd card, and perform a clean install, that's is bro :)

Hboot 1.27 which is firmware package 3.24 is for ics sense 3.6, it doesn't work with gb, ;)
[HTC Sensation] bdearen:
Problem is the firmware. You need to downgrade firmware the same way you upgraded. You are Supercid so won't have an issue. Da Doctor posted the correct firmware for this ROM like 20 or so pages back. I don't have time to find the exact post for you but it's there. Simple as downloading it putting on your sd and rebooting into bootloader.

He posted Hboot 1.23.000 firmware which works perfectly with this ROM any newer firmware and you will have boot loops.
[HTC Sensation] aortega:
Thanks bro, good to know we are in the same channel, that means I am not too tired to help this night, yet, :D:D:D
[HTC Sensation] fandroid93:
Ok, I figured it had something to do with the updated Hboot but am honestly way to tired for my brain to even begin to start working lol. Thanks for the help guys.

Haven't had to downgrade my hboot so I assume this is where I get it from?

And yeah, you can grab that one, just make sure about your modelid
[HTC Sensation] fandroid93:
O ok. So whats the difference between 1.17 and 1.23? Im with Tmobile USA, does that matter?

O and I flashed Insert Coin and MIUI knowing I'd be back on CD lol. I love CD, I just wanted some ICS love. I never left :)
[HTC Sensation] aortega:
1.17 will give you eng s-off, 1.20 to 1.23 will give you s-off only, the difference is some special functions in fastboot are not available in newer version but nothing that affects you, I would stay in 1.17 anyway, but as I said, you can grab the one you posted in your other link, just make sure about your modelid
