Just to start out, you may want to sbf and wipe all caches and try reinstalling because I think eclipse is fast as hell. If you feel you got a clean install you can go to android dev subforum and read the init.d hack thread. I didn't notice much of a difference but I am in the minority. Most people feel the init.d hack really speeds things up
[Motorola Droid X2] mistawolfe:
Bulletproof your launcher - that will help. Are you running any of the social network accounts? Kill 'em if so and check your RAM then. Here is a link for the bulletproof:

http://www.droidforums.net/forum/bu...draw-launcherpro-adw-credit-samsonite801.html

I change the "1" to a "0" - 1 is 'Hard to Kill' and 0 is 'Bulletproof'
[Motorola Droid X2] X0dus:
Running the init.d hack with Auto Killer Memory Optimizer set to extreme had me running around 180mb free at boot and hover around 150mb for the most part. Haven't tested these long enough to see if that 150 drops further. W/out AKMO I would drop as far down as 80mb free.

Thx for that link, Mistawolfe, gonna check out bulletproofin.
[Motorola Droid X2] triton302:
I thought the init.d hack was for Froyo only? Maybe I'm looking at the wrong thread.
[Motorola Droid X2] X0dus:
Look for the post authored by Navenedrob. There is/was another but I think that one is dead. Someone correct me if I'm wrong..

I would link it but I don't believe I can with the non-donated XDA app.
[Motorola Droid X2] GigaRack:
Thanks I will try that tomorrow and post my results!!!
[Motorola Droid X2] GigaRack:
Wow! mistawolf that bulletproof trick really worked!!!!! Thanks for the tip.....not much luck on the free ram....what do you think of running that init.d hack with Auto Killer Memory Optimizer set to extreme as suggested by XOdos?
[Motorola Droid X2] X0dus:
I removed AKMO this morning after the battery dropped 20% during my morning use: xda checks, fb updates, any email and/or txt received overnight, and market updates. Not the typical battery drop for my extended battery; a very significant drop for that matter.

I wasn't so much suggesting you try that set up as much as I was stating the combo seemed to give me more available RAM. As I've learned, every phone seems to behave differently to various settings, ROMS, kernels and hacks. I try out various combos n go from there.
[Motorola Droid X2] mistawolfe:
Check your running services. I bet you have a couple apps just eating stuff up. I have to kill TweetCaster on occasion after viewing or else it will run in the background and gobble up RAM. I don't have any scripts or anything on 2.2 and I go anywhere from 105 to 165 free.
[Motorola Droid X2] mistawolfe:
Also, when I used MKMO, I had it set to aggressive, or slightly aggressive, not sure the exact name.
[Motorola Droid X2] GigaRack:
ok I realized last night that even with the Eclipse ROM there was a lot of bloatware that still needed to be frozen. So after reviewing the suggested items throughout this forum I used Bloat Freezer to remove at least a dozen items. After a reboot I went to 187M of free Ram.....yes!!!! Happy to say I woke up with free RAM sitting at 138!!!!! I am loving my Droid X2 and this forum! Special thanks again to mistawolf who suggested bulletproofing the launcher and looking at my social systems. Didn't realize that even though I was not signed into any social accounts they were still running in the background. Now I am mean and clean!!! Thanks all!!

Hi there, I plan to order this phone or the evo3d but would like an owner to test allcallrecorder or another incallrecording app.

Can you give me your results please ?

Thanks a lot

ps : I know about law, legality... this is not my question ;-)
[LG Optimus 3D] |ErosizeD|:
LOL! :eek:

Just ask to a friend, or your family, i think you can test with that.

THis apk is **** anyway... doesnt work properly for me. :(
[LG Optimus 3D] sdnvxda2:
I used this apk in the passed with an xperia X10i and I had good results. Your suggestion to test with family... ok but I do not have the fone yet :-) Therefore I asked if someone who already owns the the optimus 3D to do the test for me. But I acknowledge this is not working with yours Thanks

what about callrecorder from king 3d's rom?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigman864:
i was wondering if im the only one having this problem. Just about everytime i use the navi on my evo it randomly reboots and it seems to be getting hott
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blastindamusic:
Try going into menu > settings > applications > manage applications > Maps

From there click on "Force Stop" then click "clear data" and if the option isn't greyed out then also click "uninstall updates"

This will cause your phone to forget the app was ever opened and if all goes well fix the glitch you are experiencing. If you are able to uninstall updates, be sure to go back to the marketplace and re-install the latest map update.

The maps application is what controls the Navigation icon and features.

If that doesn't work - then resort to a factory data reset and try again.

If that does not solve your issue, as long as your phone is under 1 year old and hasn't been physically damaged, Sprint should replace your evo free of charge under the manufacture warranty.

Good luck!

[HTC Sensation] eliteone:
May I just add, that the soldering method, while good and permanent is not for noobs that have never soldered before. In order for solder to properly fuse with aluminum you have to prep the aluminum first. If you don't the solder will just fall off. And keep your iron JUST HOT ENOUGH to melt the solder, if your iron is too hot you risk warping the aluminum your soldering to. But all that being said if your good with an iron, its the most permanent and effective way of getting true contact with your grounding pin. If anybody wants I can do a quick video tut and post it here, just not for a few days...... Got a new baby joining the family tomorrow :D so life will be pretty hectic round here ;)

Hello,

i have solved the issues related to screen's grounding with a curved alu stripe.

Greetings

Marcus
[HTC Sensation] zmfl:
That even looks good.. I'll add it to the list :)

My issues came back after about 2 weeks... I believe the pin bends back into its original position after a while... Adding something, like foil, aluminium or solder, might be necessary after all. I'll keep testing.

Thicker 1730mAh Batteries can cause current leakage while charging - Solution

Thanks!

I noticed a small current leakage when charging my Sensation with a 1730mAh battery, and some strange effects if I handled the phone for extended periods while charging - like the power menu popping up when I hadn't pressed the power button.

The battery is about 1mm thicker, and I suspected it was somehow causing something to make contact with the case, or shorting. I could feel the leaking current by rubbing the metal case with my finger and feeling a sort of 'fuzziness'. This only happened when it was charging, and I was able to reproduce this problem with both the HTC OEM Evo 3D 1730mAh battery and the 3rd party Anker / Chichitec battery.

After seeing this post, I realised that the slightly thicker battery was *separating* the contact between the case and this grounding plate. The battery fits perfectly and snugly into the Sensation, but the increased thickness was just enough to reduce the case's contact with the grounding plate.

I was very careful to bend the grounding plate out slightly with a tiny screwdriver as described in your first post.

Now there's no more current leakage! :D YAY! :D
[HTC Sensation] fluke2k:
..and yet ppl are bashing Samsung for build quality.

I came from a Htc Hero with the same problem as this. Sent it in and it was working fine for about three days, then the same problem again.

Then I bought the SGS2 and never looked back.. plastic fantastic:p
[HTC Sensation] ranster:
try to plug in a Nokia charger that outputs 1.2A and you'll get the problem continuously.

on the other hand, a computer USB port has low amp output and therefor it "solves" the issue.

btw, i got more touch issues with the Anker battery (again, higher amp output...)

Looks like something with the charging/power control mechanism of this unit is completely wrong :(
[HTC Sensation] DanielF50:
this will be very useful if this every happens to me, bookmarked :)
[HTC Sensation] zmfl:
Makes sense... Thicker battery would mess up the grounding contact. Glad it works :D

Careful though... The pin might bend back. It did for me after a while :)

It's true, some phones act differently when charged with different chargers. For some though, mine included, it makes no difference...

Did you try any of the fixes I posted? Any changes?
[HTC Sensation] baco200:
This solved half of my problem, before I had a silicon case for protection and everything worked like a charm, then I got touchscreen problems. I put some aluminumfoil like discribed above.

Now without the silicon case it works perfect but with it´s still the same.

Is this because the rubber doesn´t conduct ? But then why did it work in the first place?

Does somebody else uses a rubber case?
[HTC Sensation] imblacklife:
I replaced my digitizer about a week ago because I dropped my phone on concrete. I was still able to use the phone but didn't because I didn't want glass in my finger. Anyways I got the replacement and it was all over the place. I did the firmware update and it was somewhat better. I just installed touch test from the market and the top half is perfectly fine but the bottom half of the screen is jumpy. I did everything in the first post and still the same. Does anyone know if maybe the lcd got damaged in the fall or I was just unlucky and got a defective digitizer?
[HTC Sensation] RussianBear:
i don't think the lcd has anything to do with the touch function, it's strictly a digitizer thing. correct me if i'm wrong. was it a cheap replacement off ebay or oem one? i'd send it back. tell them to mail you the replacement first though. most of them will do that rather than risk getting a negative feedback.

I have a weird multitouch bug with ARHD 6.2.1 so ICS ROM

I've posted in the ROM thread, but I think it may a problem with the build (hopping the official release will fix it if this bug is included in the ROM)

The bug occures only if two fingers are pressed, keep one pressed, click quickly with the other one, the 1st one will release, or worse, "touched area 1" will become "touched area 2"

=>It doesn't occures if sliding the fingers, so many people will never realize it (pinch to zoom is OK)

=>It doesn't occure if you use 3 or 4 fingers !

...but it makes many racing games unplayable (strangely, GTA3 is pretty OK, maybe because I don't steer left/right fast enough in this game)

Here is a video I made that clearly shows the problem

http://youtu.be/30ogIc_Yib0

I'ts a different problem from the one in the OP, my touchscreen is really responsive, my lockring works great, etc.

Please could you guys running ICS ROMS try to see if you can reproduce this bug using multitouch testers like in my video?

This bug was reported by other ARHD users, I'm eager to know if other ROMs are affected...
[HTC Sensation] joaquinf:
Hi guys.

I'm in the middle of something and i don't know what is wrong with my phone. Half an hour or 45 mins ago i was reading the forum on my phone (with my phone charging) and all of a sudden the screen got frozen i thought it was a scrolling lag at first so i tried to scroll again with no success. Tried to lock the screen and it worked so i unlocked the screen but i wasn't able to pull the ring up nor to do anything in the screen.

Did the three finger salute and same thing, my screen is completely unresponsive so i rebooted into recovery and the touchscreen is working after that i tried wiping cache+dalvik, reflashing kernel, reflashing ROM but still not working. Did adb logcat and isn't recognizing the touch input.

Why it works in recovery but not working in android? any ideas?

EDIT0: I've bent the grounding pin and tried the aluminum foil fix already

EDIT1: Superwiping right now, this couldn't be hardware related

EDIT2: S**t! superwipe doesn't solve the issue! WTF?? it works like a charm in recovery!

EDIT3: Restoring NANDROID backup

EDIT4: Reflashing the firmware didn't work either ... im about to have a heart attack
[HTC Sensation] zmfl:
True :)

You tried restoring your stock ROM? Try the steps from the OP - discharge, charge with no touching, etc. But I doubt that will fix it, since I doubt it's grounding related.
[HTC Sensation] joaquinf:
After manually wiping all partitions except sd card, superwiping, reverted hboot 1.17 and flashed ARHD 3.6.13 guess what? ... my touchscreen is now working wtf?

i just can't explain what happened. I knew it wasn't a hardware issue because it was working on recovery but even reflashing ics firmware didn't work ... now i'm back on gingerbread again and will flash again ics lets see what happens then.

EDIT: I'm speechless right now. Just flashed back to ICS and my touchscreen is unresponsive again!!!! . For some reason my phone is refusing to work with ICS and i will have to go back to gingerbread until the next release . Good news is i can try the latest faux beta LOL

Any thoughts will be appreciated
[HTC Sensation] zmfl:
I haven’t tried ICS yet since I consider it to be too fresh and too beta (don't want to go through the stuff you are going through right now :D), so you won't be having any useful thoughts from me :)

Glad your touchscreen isn't dead though!
[HTC Sensation] undercover:
W00t? Not on ICS yet?! You are missing out.:p
[HTC Sensation] zmfl:
Yeah, I even surprised myself :D

Question about the firmware update

I want to ask about the firmware update you link to the first post if it can be applied to normal sensation ,,,not the sensation 4G.

I am on stock but in the Middle east where the updates tend to be very late....now the official release available by OTA 1.50.415.1 radio is 10.56.9035.00U_10.14.9035.01_M.

I want to do so as I have sever touch screen issues (last 3rd part of the screen and the touch bottom. I tried the grounding by number of methods but it did not get better).

Thanks is advance
[HTC Sensation] zmfl:
Of course it can. It's the same phone :)
[HTC Sensation] boalos:
Thanks, I have applied it but it did not dix the touch screen issue :(

I think maybe I have a problem hardware, I see people here talking about a digitizer, I think this what detects the touch location....if you have a there is a thread about that I will appreciate if u direct me to it...
[HTC Sensation] zmfl:
There's no thread about digitizers.. At least not that I know of. If think that's the problem, take it to a service centre.

Could you explain what your issues are? That part of the screen doesn’t work at all, or just sometimes?
[HTC Sensation] boalos:
sometimes, the lower third in general and goes worth when moving down, the phone button in the end of the screen have to be touched a number of times to open phone application.

I tried a touch test application, it is very smooth in the top but tend to be jumping and does not draw a continuous line.

But I think it is better now after I applied the new firmware but not normal still
[HTC Sensation] RussianBear:
what charger (or usb cable) are you using? did you try the metal foil trick or bending the grounding pin?
[HTC Sensation] MOVZX:
I have ever experiencing the same problems also, unresponsive touchscreen. I was thinking if it's about hardware failure, but after reading Your post now I got it clear that it's just that grounding issue.

Thank You man, You saved Me alot! :cool:
[HTC Sensation] boalos:
I am using the original charger and cable, I tried the pin and metal foil, and it did not make a difference. I tried the discharge and leave overnight method,, and currently the main issue is in the last line in the LCD,,,

I mean the phone button and applications, but there is a very strange thing that makes me think it can be software related:

when I open all applications window and press the downloaded or favorite instead of activating the tab, the application that should be in the next row starts though its icon is not not displayed at all in the current window, this application should be in the first row if I scrolled the window down....any idea?

I installed an old rru that I have thinking that it may fix but got nothing out of it
[HTC Sensation] RussianBear:
there is a safe mode that can be entered on sensation that you can try to rule out any software acting up.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1366771
[HTC Sensation] zmfl:
Yeah, try safe mode, and also, try touch recovery. The screen should work perfectly there.

If you don't have touch recovery, you can get it with RevolutionHD ROMs. There is a link for the recovery on Revolution's thread.
[HTC Sensation] zorroh:
i have also problem with touchscreen.

i flashed new rom and now touchscreen is working only in 4ext recovery.. when i boot the rom, then touchscreen not working..

ive been testing now many roms and several firmwares, but still no luck...

it is really weird that touchscreen actually working just fine in recovery!
[HTC Sensation] Kylemail2003:
not having any problems now but I might try this soon
[HTC Sensation] phonephixer:
Just replace your digitizer again. Should be okay then. Our digitizers are very thin and very sensitive. If dropped they can malfunction. Mine did and I replaced it without issue. I have replaced mine thus far. It seems like most of our issues are from faulty digitizers. The fix here may assist but not cure it's illness.
[HTC Sensation] zmfl:
Can't believe I'll say this again... This here fix is not for digitizer issues, and what is explained in the OP is no digitizer issue. There's a few hundrid pages on xda explaining that.

The only fix for a faulty digitizer is to go get a new one, since that can't be mended with any DIY methods, as far as I know.
[HTC Sensation] lilbenji25@hotmail.com:
Fantastic,

Worked like a charm (didn't do the soldering trick as soldering to aluminium is a little tricky!)

Cheers :)
[HTC Sensation] lVlaciiiii:
I've had my Sensation for a couple months now, and a week after I first got it, it started having these touchscreen issues. I followed some advice I got (to charge it fully), and did it 3 times. Perfect. Not an issue since then. Thanks so much!
[HTC Sensation] totalundone:
Thanks for this fix!

I haven't had to use it yet... but I can replicate this issue 100% of the time.

I charge my phone on my nightstand and I rest the the back of the phone on a small workout towel (pretty much a terry cloth towel, screen side up). When the phone is lying on its back on the towel, I cannot unlock the phone.. it's like multiple touch points are active. I can only unlock it (or turn off the alarm) when I take it off the towel. However, when its *not* lying on the towel, there's absolutely no problem.

Definitely appears to be some type of charge issue. HTC should really offer an updated backplate for this design defect.
[HTC Sensation] RussianBear:
what charger and usb cable are you using to charge the phone?
[HTC Sensation] ErrorXp:
Same Porblem here
[HTC Sensation] M@rshy:
I never had a problem until I took out my sd card and reformatted it. Ever since I did that the left side of my screen is crap. If I use swype then it constantly cuts out once I go to the left of 'R' 'F' and 'C'. If I just type letters then I get double letters being pressed.

I haven't resorted to a total wipe of my phone, because that is a pain in the ass, but I'm planning on making a backup and doing it this weekend. I'm now running a new sdcard and things started working slightly better, but barely any.

If this wipe doesn't fix it, I think I'll just go to the TMobile store and see what they say/do.
[HTC Sensation] RussianBear:
i seriously doubt a re-format of a sd card could cause any of the issues. don't waste your time with the "specialists" at the t-mob store either, just send it in if that's what needs to be done.
[HTC Sensation] M@rshy:
Won't they just swap it out in store?
[HTC Sensation] RussianBear:
i doubt it, man. might be worth a shot, though.
[HTC Sensation] undercover:
You probably just got bad connection after removing the cover. Fix should work for you, just be a bit patient with it. Do few charge/discharge cycles to het rid of the problem, and foil should preven it from happening in the future.

Sent throught the wormhole from my CoinInserted Sensation OG.
[HTC Sensation] Taurus_1972:
Thanks for the thread. Just installed the update you give for the Gingerbread in the stock rom and the touch start to work just fine. :)
[HTC Sensation] acesabe:
I have replicated the dodgy screen/false keypress while connected to crappy charger issue on a SE Xperia Arc also now, so have no doubt that in my case at least, this is the problem.
[HTC Sensation] Chaos Storm:
My Sensation had this issue and despite these fixes nothing helped. I had my lens replaced and now it's better, but like one other poster, if I remove the back cover my touch works 100%.

What I did was remove cover and use touchscreen for a few minutes then put back in case. No issues for 3 days now. My Sensation is the 4G version for Bell.

Note that if you use HTC Sense and have weather enabled, it is normal for the touchscreen to delay in responding while Sense shows current weather conditions.
[HTC Sensation] zmfl:
That's how we got to this fix. Actually, that's how we realised the problem is in the cover. The fix will help you, just be stubborn :)
