it definitely helps if the apps you are freezing were constantly running in the background. but of course, if the app never runs itselfs to begin with, then freezing it does nothing.
[HTC Sensation] Bernardos70:
Visual mail, htc watch, htc listen, qik, some other t-mobile is always running. So killing those, our freezing them should theoretically help battery life.
[HTC Sensation] allyn274:
Is there a way to freeze apps on the Sensation yet?
[HTC Sensation] ProximaC:
If a program is loaded, but is just sitting idle it's not using much/any battery at all. If it's a program that is waking up your phone then it's a problem. Get a copy of BetterBatteryStats and you can see which apps are causing wakelocks on your phone.
[HTC Sensation] webmaster:
I have the following listed as running whenever I reboot my phone. Please let me know which (if any) I can freeze that would give me better battery life.

Does anyone care to comment on the above?
[HTC Sensation] chisleu:
I want to return to stock on my tmobile branded HTC sensation 4G. I have flashed the radio, eng s off, and CSL recovery.

I am going to give them a shot at fixing my reception issues before I destroy the phone and buy something else.
[HTC Sensation] Dano79:
Did you have reception problems before flashing your radio or after? I think you should be fine with having a rom since HTC released their bootloader if its a big deal and your really worried just flash a stock rom on that bad boy and call it a day. Just my 2 cents new to the site so hopefully a vet will chime in here for help
[HTC Sensation] sosquidtaste:
Though I've never returned to stock on my phone, you just need to download one of the TMOUS RUUs in this thread:

[ROM][11 May] Shipped Pyramid ROM Collection

There are two listed for TMOUS (there was only one when last I checked the thread), but it supposedly doesn't matter which one you pick according to one of the posts later on in the thread.

They're big old files, but just run the .EXE and it ought to walk you through every necessary step to proceed properly.

Good luck, and let us know how it goes!
[HTC Sensation] chisleu:
Thank you very much for the great responses.

Yes I had reception problems on all 3 sensation 4g's I've had my hands on. It's terrible. Side by side, on the same tower, it gets far lower reception than my old Motorola Cliq (piece of slow crap.)

It's ridiculously low and drops calls. It's so unreliable at my house that I have to use WiFi calling and take a drop if I get more than 30' from my extremely good wireless router. meh. crap.

To the other gentleman, than you very much. I figured it included the radio, but I was unsure about the bootloader/recovery. I will start there and then figure out if there is anything else I need to fix before I send it in. I don't want any more BS from them. I'm sure they are just going to send it back and say "nothing is wrong".

They have said that it is comparable to reception on their other models. If this is the case, this will be the VERY last HTC phone I ever own, and our company has just gotten to the point that I can invest in things such as this for business. If we only get 2 at a time, every 6 months or so, That is $10,000 in lost business in the next ten years, provided they are only $500 phones.
[HTC Sensation] mystikal87:
If I may be so bold as to make a suggestion and ask a few questions....

1. Have you tried reverting to stock and see if you still have the same problems with reception?

2. Are you aware that the Sensation suffers from the grip of death?

3. Have you noticed performance with reception after flashing a new ROM in comparison to stock?

I think I may have some insight to the real problem but need this info first.
[HTC Sensation] chisleu:
Best 3 Stooges voice: "Sauwtainly"

Yes, They (3 different phones) had this problem from day 1. Purchased from different places, at different times.

Yes, but this isn't to what I refer. Holding the phone in a weird way to make the radios D/C isn't my problem so much as the design that allows this to happen in the first place is my problem. If I set the phone down, I get more bars than if I hold it normally. If this is the difference between 2-3 and 1-2, I can get dropped calls. My wifi range (max performance on) is 1/10th of my tablet and 1/20th of my laptop.

Even without touching the phone, just setting it on a wood counter top, it has less reception than my Motorola Cliq or Mytouch 4g, even when on the same tower. The cliq's reception does not change if I pick it up.

It's a bad design. If it is what HTC considers acceptable, then their phones aren't acceptable to me. It's cool. I'm not really that pissed about it. I just won't buy another. There are options.

No, I've found no increase in reception with any change I've made. I've flashed 5 different radios other than stock with no changes in this department.

I have heard people have speed changes, but I was not tracking that so I can't really respond to that.

Hope you have some help.

I've already tried a new back. It did nothing. There simply aren't enough towers in my area (all edge towers anyway) to support a phone with such poor reception. My Cliq had no issues with dropped calls in many of the areas I drive through, but this sensation just can't make it down my parents road without dropping.
[HTC Sensation] mystikal87:
The reason I ask is that I think that the Radio-Interface-Layer (RIL) files must be screwing with your radio. The RILs are like drivers for your radio. Different radios work with different RILs depending on your location. Long-in-short-version, Since the Sensation is fairly new, we are still exploring what works best and therefore your mileage may vary.

You may want to check this thread

And check out your RIL version. To check to see what RIL you have run getprop "gsm.version.ril-impl" in Terminal Emulator or adb shell and it will print out the RIL version.

T-Mo users should utilize HTC-RIL 2.2.0159HMQ if not running 2.3.4 ROMS

2.3.4 ROMS require HTC-RIL 2.2.0169HMQ. The matching radio versions are included in the thread posted above.

Hope this helps.

If that fails, tonight, TMOUS released an OTA update. See if you can get it through Settings-> About Phone -> HTC Software updates.

The changes for the T-Mo update can be found here

Hope this helps!

EDIT : I am assuming that you have a T-Mobile Sensation 4G and not an unbranded HTC Sensation and that you current location is in fact Myrtle Beach, SC. But then again, I hate assumptions and I really should have asked >.< **having a simpson 'doh' moment here**
[HTC Sensation] CB620:
Change your cid to all ones and flash the stock ruu.exe and send it back to tmobile.
[HTC Sensation] chisleu:
I'm sending it to HTC, not tmobile.

I will play with the MILs right now (installing the tmo one)

I'm on stock RUU now, but it did not replace the PVT S-OFF and recovery crashes and requires a battery pull to reboot. It goes to a icon of a phone with a red triangle thingie on it.

EDIT: MIL's match.

EDIT: Texts from 10076200000 is tmobile related. WTF it does is WTF.
[HTC Sensation] mystikal87:
Could be trying to push the OTA update. Have you tried applying the OTA update?
[HTC Sensation] raginmonkey:
iNFORMATION

I have personally reset my phone a couple of times using the tmo ruu and know that it sets your phone back to absolute stock, with no root and only being s-off. What this means is, if you wish to reroot then you are going to have to go back through the rooting process.

As far as the symbol that you are seeing when you try to do an ota update? The reason that you are seeing the phone with a red triangle is because your phone is being recognized as being rooted and once rooted htc will not allow an ota to your phone. You have to trick HTC into thinking that the phone is not rooted in order to get the ota, there is a thread in the forums for this. I do not remember which thread it is, however, I know that it works as I did it for all four of the HTC sensations that I own.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mjben:
Well, you're going to have to root your phone. Then install a new ROM.

Each of the hacks is ROM specific. I can say that SFR1.2 and EH06 are both nice.

Root using the CWM3.1.0.1 purple

SFR needs a kernal flashed after the ROM but before reboot. You may want to use the clean kernel as an easy start. Otherwise any of the EC05 kernels will work.

EH06 has a few nice add-ons avaialble, but no OC/UV kernels (not a big deal, really).

Have fun!
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hayzooos:
I don't think he would have to install a custom ROM to wifi tether. I mean, if you're going to root, might as well put a custom ROM on there, but if the OP wants to keep it simple and ONLY wifi tether, than he can simply root, install a wifi tether app, and away he goes.

hello everyone. Sorry to bump this thread back up instead of creating another thread.

Anyways, I am on

Ginerbread EI22

model sph-d700

baseband S:D700.0.5S.EI22

Kernel: 2.6.35.7

Firmware: 2.3.5

I have been researching and reading as much I can. In order to get the hotspot to work on the epic, I have to root the device. And then upload a rom from this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1172576&page=81

Then after, I am good to go?

just a couple of question:

if I root the device, will I lose all my contacts and information that is on the phone?

I know doing this hack give you free wifi/usb tethering but do you have to sign up for any particular service plan?

with the wifi tethering, does anyone know if its infracture or adhoc?

I appreciate any answer or help, thank you very much :)
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BeerChameleon:
1. If you root you won't lose contacts, if you flash a rom it will most likely wipe everything, so after you root, install titanium backup and backup all apps and only certain data. Also you can link your contacts to your gmail so all you have to do is long in your gmail and all your contacts will be there. Or there are a few apps on the market to backup contacts.

2. No signup needed... as its a hacked version of the official one and bypasses the authentication checks, it will just look like you are using a lot of data, they have no way of knowing your tethering unless you show them u r rooted and have that...

3. The hotspot hack is infrastructure and works on 3g/4g and has many security option

Hope that helps and don't forget to hit thanks!

Also i recommend flashing clean GB rom as its as stock as it gets and most stable
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazyios:
awesome thank you for the information. So if I flash the GB rom, I will lose all data until I recover it which shouldn't be a problem. Does the GB rom include the wifi/usb tethering hack?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BillyBob3:
Davidrules is correct but his recommendation for clean gb is the name of the rom. "CleanGB" by toadlife. You can find it in the developers section, and yes it includes the hack with nothing else needed. Do this: 1-root by watching qbking77's videos in the general section stickey. 2-install and run titanium backup. 3-download CleanGB to your sd card. 4-boot into clockwork (pwr+vol

down

+camera) and install zip from sd. Choose the cleangb zip file. 5-do a restore from titanium of missing apps and data.

This is an overview but with the videos, you should be good 2 go!

EDIT: I originally said "vol up". Its vol down. Ooops!

Hello everyone, I just got a problem last night. I tried to permroot my G2 using Visionary+ and once it rebooted it got stuck on the HTC loadup screen. I have done a factory reset and have gone into recovery mode but when I do go into recovery mode, I get a droid phone with an exclamation mark in the middle and it just stays there.

I don't know many details about the phone other than what I can tell you from the HBOOT menu, I'd rather avoid sending it back in for a warranty repair unless I can just get to the normal screen where I can unroot it, I don't care who you are I just need help on what to do because I have no idea :\

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martonikaj:
You really need to research before you try to root your phone. Like a lot of research.

and when you brick it, you need to research to try and un-brick it. This stuff is easy, but its tedious, and if you're not ready to deal with hours of trying to fix your phone, you shouldn't been rushing into rooting.

All of the info is in that thread. Dozens of people have followed it and recovered their semi-brick.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Agree with everything you said. One click roots can be dangerous and tempting, as they lure people to an easy method, without having to learn the basics . . . and that's how the trouble starts. Especially when the one click root method is known to result in possible semi bricks.

If anybody wonders why HTC tried going to locked bootloaders, or constantly trying to increase the security against rooting, situations like this is why. People not wanting to make an effort to root by proper methods, or fix their mistakes, and claiming a "warranty issue".
