[HTC Sensation] Five0nIt:
Every once in a while in recovery when I try to select something, right after pressing the power the phone will reboot.

Now I get your point, but it still doesn't make since to me that it happens on two different phones running two different roms.

On stock 2.3.3 and 2.3.4 I had the problem. On CM7 alpha 9 and 10 I have the problem.
[HTC Sensation] sigmabeta:
So I've been having intermittently good and bad battery life with CM7. I decided to do a full wipe and start over with CM7 #10, stock kernel, and saw the attached battery at the end of the first full charge-discharge cycle. That's pretty good for a Sensation! There was about an hours worth of straight screen usage which drained it quite a bit, but I'll accept that if when I'm not using it the battery is conserved (there are two overnight sections of that graph, the start of the green and the middle of the yellow section where barely any battery was used.)

You can also see the phone shutting off and beginning a new charge cycle at the end of that. I changed nothing else and the battery lasted probably half as long. There was definitely abnormal battery drain and even a little bit of warmth to the phone. The android battery screen shows the phone was not "awake" during this time, which was concerning.

I read another post (can't find it now) saying to disable autorotate and reboot the phone to alleviate this. I did this (and automatic brightness, because i have a sneaking suspicion that isn't working correctly either) and rebooted with a fully charged battery. It's now about two and a half hours of leaving the phone more or less alone, the occasional email check, before the phone reported anything but 100% battery. Now, I know that the first % always takes forever to get past on the sensation, but this is much more in line with what i've been seeing during the good cycles.

Conclusion... there's something funky going on with the rotation/brightness sensors that's happening while the screen is off. Give it a shot and see what you get.
[HTC Sensation] t0ny0:
It has happened to me in recovery...

Usually everything is fine with all roms, and then suddenly after a few days it goes crazy...

It happened before when I was using InsertCoin rom, and its been happening now with the CM7 roms... Ive done full wipe and what not, but yeah, its been happening in recovery too..

The thing is - it never happened to me before I rooted the phone, it was completely fine with the stock rom (other than the fact that the stock rom sucks majorly lol)... But no power button issues..

Maybe the problem stands deeper than just the ROM itself, maybe its something that is happening when S-OFF-ing the phone.... idk..

Anyways, its not THAT annoying, but I just tend to expect more from a $600 phone, and then I realize...that its HTC :D Expect the unexpected (good and bad) :D
[HTC Sensation] Phateless:
My sensation gives me the most trouble with power button in recovery.
[HTC Sensation] Phateless:
I've fastboot wiped until I'm blue in the face and still have the issue. After 7 exchanges for the glacier I just don't want to call T-mobile again.
[HTC Sensation] ldelossa.ld:
Today I accidentaly clicked on GPS status, with my gps status off, it closed and I thought that was that. Later on I check my battery life and It looks like GPS status was taking up 57% of my battery, draining it. Even tho the sevice was stopped and I could not force stop it in task manager.
[HTC Sensation] gbzbar:
I'm convinced that it's hardware related, no matter what the recovery key test shows. I had the problem with the power button very regularly, and it stopped as soon as I got a warranty replacement phone for a different issue. It has not happened once since i got the replacement.

The software on the new phone was only a nandroid restore of the software on the old phone, so it's definitely not a software issue.

The issue is intermittent, so a recovery key test is by no means an accurate way of testing if the key is a hardware issue or not.
[HTC Sensation] tuffgong01:
Where can I get previous versions of the ROM?

Looking for SelfKang7-8

Anyone??
[HTC Sensation] gbzbar:

Just make sure you're downloading a version for the Sensation.
[HTC Sensation] chrisnk204:
I've cheated on you CM :'( with Miui but she dosent love me like you love please take me back ... miui is cm it just looks different and there's more themes available that's about it I mean it is built off of cm
[HTC Sensation] t0ny0:
Hahahahahaha!! :)

Not a big fan of MIUI here ... It looks way too ... iPhone-ish ... for my liking..
[HTC Sensation] bilbo6209:
Do you mean disable autorotate for the screen period? or is there a setting inside gallery?
[HTC Sensation] cstark27:
Settings>Display>Un check auto-rotate screen
[HTC Sensation] speedyjay:
Can I flash a beats mod to this rom?
[HTC Sensation] bilbo6209:
OK thats what I thought but wanted to verify beforeI turned Auto Rotate off for the phone

---------- Post added at 02:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:22 PM ----------

I have had this issue since the first flash to CM, and assumed it was a CM thing, but when I flashed my fiancee's phone the behavior was not there.

Has anyone had luck talking T-Mo into a replacement phone due to a flakey power button?
[HTC Sensation] Fast-Droid:
I noticed after a few days my power button gets a little flakey with any Rom i use.I use faux kernel and it gets a little flakey sometimes.If i use Tiamat kernel it goes away and stays away,strange..
[HTC Sensation] chrisnk204:
Okaaaaaaay with the power button!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It has been acknowledged!!!!!!!!! Now move on!!!!!!!
[HTC Sensation] bilbo6209:
In my case it does seem more like a software issue.... I just tried to wake up my phone, the first 2 presses of the power button did nothing but on the 3rd the screen turned on, blinked off and then turned back on.... but this happened almost a second after the first press.

But that being said I also have had the issue when in recovery you click to do something and instead of bringing you to the next page (where you have to scroll down to select yes) and instead comes back to the same page due to the button registering 2 clicks and clicking NO instead.
[HTC Sensation] stonew5082:
Anybody notice attenuation of volume when headphone activated settings arnt working?
[HTC Sensation] vegasjoe:
To HTC Tech Manager: Best Thing for Sense is Replace with CM7

So I thought this group might appreciate: I'm at a TMO/HTC Lunch & Learn session for business customers today and when asked how I feel about the HTC Sense Experience:

"I love HTC products, but the first thing I do when I get them is root/wipe and install CyanogenMOD so I get a native/stable Android experience - or install ADW when CM isn't available."

So he says, "anybody ELSE have any HTC Sense experiences they'd like to share?"

..I wasn't called on again.

I am an HTC fan, just don't want the bloat.
[HTC Sensation] kedlun:
No, Beats relies on the Sense framework so it only works on sense-based roms which this is not.
[HTC Sensation] sykomaniac:
I have to agree maybe placebo but light set to low instead of auto brightness and after heavy usage have 26% where usually its dead!
[HTC Sensation] Fast-Droid:
Lol..Nice!
[HTC Sensation] septix:
I'm getting really poor quality on my wallpaper when I set it trough default gallery. If I use another app, like quickpic, the quality is perfect. Anyone else experiencing this?

I can post screens if someone wants
[HTC Sensation] shawayne21:
Battery life with the Bricked kernel is really decent with this rom:
[HTC Sensation] aNYthing24:
Does anyone else use the Pulse app? Is it chewing up 50%+ of your battery? o.O
[HTC Sensation] Gtj94:
Holy shiz, 2 days battery with pretty moderate usage! Best baterry I've ever gotten on this phone :D
[HTC Sensation] septix:
Some apps eats battery. Badly optimized
[HTC Sensation] bduvel:
With latest faux its also quite ok ;)

Anker battery btw.

I think thats a bug, i also did watch 2 youtube clips and it went up to almost 50% after the whole day.
[HTC Sensation] SoFaKiNgStOkeD:
Still a busted camera??? So what's with the video floating around showing a stable 1080P camera on a CM& Sensation? The video with the guy filming on a helicopter pad? Why is that working but this ROM is still failing????
[HTC Sensation] aNYthing24:
You can record for a couple seconds before it reboots.
[HTC Sensation] JamesTBrewer:
I get the same kind of battery usage reported from GPS Status without ever even running it. When I open the usage details it shows that it only uses the CPU for about 2 minutes
[HTC Sensation] aNYthing24:
Yeah, it says the Pulse app has only used 40 seconds of CPU time. Really odd.
[HTC Sensation] GideonX:
It looks like kmobs found the battery culprit:

via his G+
[HTC Sensation] chrisnk204:
When are we gonna get an update...

Lol jk cant wait till we have a stable BUGLESS rom :) only a couple more things and we golden!!!
[HTC Sensation] bduvel:
Annoying.

You tell us then whats unstable? ive been running this since alpha one and i have never had a forced reboot once.

Guess ur holding it wrong.

Updates will come when they are ready i guess )))
[HTC Sensation] chrisnk204:
Actually there are a couple things not OPTIMIZED check op and ive probably been on CM long before YOU dont tell me about updates
[HTC Sensation] mrg02d:
Go try to record in HD....

[HTC Sensation] Phateless:
Lol, I wish you would have said something about their terrible quality control. Different screens, dust under screens, etc. I've had 7 glaciers.

My Sensation die

After 3 days using A10, three days without doing any flashing, my phone got out of battery and never turn on again.

I did an external charge (to 3.6V) but... nothing the phone don't want to come back. I changed to another battery but... nothing.

When I plug the phone no light, no charge, dont turn on. The only thing that it does is show a qualcomm modem device in the linux syslog.

I supose that it's hardware fault, but if some one have seen something similar his help will be appreciated.
[HTC Sensation] Part Four:
Anyone else having market problems? Never seen this one before... When I click "My Apps" from the market menu, I get a blank, white screen, with no apps displayed. Clearing data and uninstalling updates had done nothing to fix this. Anyone know how to fix?
[HTC Sensation] Phateless:
Do you have multiple google accounts? My market always defaults to the wrong account. Drives me nuts.
[HTC Sensation] Part Four:
I do, but it's set to the proper one.
[HTC Sensation] bxlegend:
I used to get this but it doesn't happen in Market 3.3.11.
[HTC Sensation] Spidersoft:
I had an similar issue. Took a photo -> phone instantly shutted down. After that, I coulnd't turn it back on, without switching back to my old original battery (had the Evo 3d). When I connected the charger, the led became orange. After pushing the power button, it became orange again and after a few seconds green.

Sometimes, if I pushed all 3 buttons together, I saw the htc Boot screen for < 1 second. I was running a10.
[HTC Sensation] soggyflakes:
I was wondering if anyone else is having problems with the phone staying awake while screen is off. I've have now turned off auto sync and there weren't any apps that I know of that were running. Is there anyway I can find out what is keeping it awake?
[HTC Sensation] gol_n_dal:
What apps have you got running, I have a very different profile to that. It's likely that something keeps waking up.
[HTC Sensation] umd:
Same here. Something keeps it awake instead of sleeping but I don't what this is.
[HTC Sensation] smacman:
Have you tried looking at the battery history in "spare parts"?
[HTC Sensation] bradmill08:
Best rom ever
[HTC Sensation] RANDYRKELLY:
Is there a ringer fix? Ringer only rings thru ear piece. Not loud at all. Missing important calls.
[HTC Sensation] epicroot:
any body experiancing an unresponsive laggy unlock screen.. i have to slide the rotary atleast twice for it to register as being unlocked
[HTC Sensation] runderekrun:
Woah that worked really well. Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] jjdeveau:
First off want to say Rom is running spectacular. I haven't had any stability issues and everything seems to be working fine. Installed the new faux cm7 kernal and this this just screams got a 3300 quad score. That said. few questions

#1: is there a way to get the tap to focus?

#2: is there a way to get zoom in camera?

#3 My biggest question: when you open messaging there is no button to insert a image, is there a way to get the button to add pics to a mms back?
[HTC Sensation] Matt1408:
Worked in a way... I no longer get a grey box...

But how do I get my photo to appear without having to add myself as a contact on my phone?
[HTC Sensation] Mquinteiro:
Sound Bug

Similar here, after you have call, the ringer sound from front speaker (this is the reason for low ring volumen in incoming calls) It return to normal (back speaker) if you play some music.

Great ROM!
[HTC Sensation] cl2eep:
Am I the only one getting crippling wakelock? The phone was fine last night, this morning i cant get it to stay on more than a few minutes!
[HTC Sensation] apex84:
Don't know if this can be called a bug but when using the calculator in portrait mode the swipe animation (when switching between basic and advanced panel) is really choppy. But in landscape mode it's very smooth.
[HTC Sensation] teshxx:
No sweat. Your welcome.
[HTC Sensation] RaDeN305:
I can also confirm that playing music returns sound to normal. After calls all notifications/ringer play from ear speaker.
[HTC Sensation] anurbanlegend:
Not sure. I have myself added as a contact.
[HTC Sensation] MR_XXIV:
So far I haven't found something that doesn't work with my phone besides the zoom option on my camera and not having the video google chat feature. Other than that I can live with this ROM as my daily driver till the next update. CM Team you guys Rock \m/
[HTC Sensation] LupusHD2:
talk video chat does work, just flash the appropriate one.
[HTC Sensation] bigxie:
For video chat in Gtalk, flash this Gapps:

Grey Square when sending text mgs

Hey everyone, i did some searching on Google for the icon/phone number unknown problems and the solution i found was to do these steps:

settings/call settings/additional settings (near the bottom)/my phone number and enter your # ...after i did that and rebooted, i was able to add myself and chose a pic .. no more grey box :)
[HTC Sensation] Tweezydak1d:
has any ones battery life taken a hit.... my android system has used 66% while everything else is about 10%. my battery lasted longer using sence roms.. im going to try reflashing again
[HTC Sensation] DroidRC1:
Works thanks!
[HTC Sensation] Phateless:
This morning it worked fine, lol.
[HTC Sensation] Phateless:
Nope, same here, although you can force it via cm settings, sound.
[HTC Sensation] umd:
There are lots of usage options there. Which is the one should I look for?
[HTC Sensation] cstark27:
Open Spare Parts>Battery History>Change Other Usage dropdown to Partial wake and you'll see what is keeping your phone awake while the screen is off.
[HTC Sensation] umd:
Checked that but longest working one is Android system and it is about 15 minutes while it drooped 12% battery whole night.

edit: plane mode was on.
[HTC Sensation] smacman:
CPU Usage can also be a good way to see if anything is misbehaving. Look for something that is disproportionately high in CPU use..
[HTC Sensation] Fealakwen:
Hi,

That's probably a stupid question, but there is nothing to download on the CM7 website for Sensation :(

The device isn't supported anymore?

Edit: Problem solved.
[HTC Sensation] squeeish:
No that website wasn't ever filled in the first place. :)
[HTC Sensation] kristofpetho:
Actually, it will only be filled when it reaches stable/nightly. Until then, you can find the releases in the CyanogenMod / Sensation / Experimental builds section, within the forums.
[HTC Sensation] bwilliams1:
Wierd issue.

My wife pointed this out out to me, and since I rarely use the voice input options I didn't notice, but when she presses the microphone button on the keyboard or anywhere else voice input is an option, nothing happens, basically the button lights up to indicate it has been pressed, and that's it. has anyone else seen this or have a clue how to fixor it?

Thanks!

Btw, I tried a wipe / factory reset and that didn't help.
[HTC Sensation] AbrahamLinksys:
spamalot

Now this is ridiculous... :( I frequently read dev forums, but this one is getting impossible to be followed since 90% of the post are customer-support-like questions, that can be easily googled. Dont get me wrong, but NOT A SINGLE dev/op will read his own thread if you post a thousand posts about your app-related batt life problems and etc.
[HTC Sensation] Phateless:
Partial wake and network usage are the most telling.
[HTC Sensation] youngquazy:
My only concern is the front facing camera. I have faced this problem even with CM7 Final on my MyTouch 4G. On the sensation, the front facing camera would be upside down when using third party apps like qik. My question is, does this rom have the same issue with upside down front facing camera when using third party video chat apps? Does anyone have a solution? When you try it, yes you may appear upright on your end, but to the other person, you're upside down. If someone can provide a fix for this, I can deal with the other bugs. I'm sure there's a fix somewhere by now seeing that it was even an issue in CM7 Final.
[HTC Sensation] M@rshy:
My wife is running stock and hers does this too, so its not just cm7.
[HTC Sensation] KrisHilbun:
Still having issue with browser becoming unresponsive cant load new sites or go back to previous. lets me go back to home screen, app doesnt force close or ask to wait. can press button to bring up settings and it lets me view them but if i attempt to select... does nothing

Have to force close browser myself just to be able to browse again, happens randomly :|

Anyone? :(

edit; read in earlier posts ;

Dont have " /app_plugins/ " so wondering if thats still the problem :|
[HTC Sensation] umd:
None. They're also about 11 minutes at max. Only thing that looks suspicious is sensor usage like Keyan said via his G+. Android system 6 hours 19 minutes and dialer 4 hours used sensors since boot.
[HTC Sensation] chrisnk204:
I just remembered why i kept going back to crappy ass sense i dont wanna hear anything about a wipe ive been on CM for a couple years now and i kno wat im doing but anyway the wifi range is bad where i used to get full bars on sense roms i now get one or two maybe with CM wifi is a must i only get 5gb (and thats only because i pay extra) of data before T-Mobile slows me down for the rest of the month so i NEED wifi im a very very heavy user can someone please look into this i cant take anything but CM it hurts me everyday im not runnin CM
[HTC Sensation] t0ny0:
1-2 bars are actually what you are getting with Sense too, it just shows you more for some reason... the cm7 one is more accurate than sense..

I use wifi calling at home and i noticed that when i get 1 bar with cm7 - wifi calling still works. On sense wifi calling stops working at ~3 bars of wifi
[HTC Sensation] bigxie:
Did you download 'Voice Search' from the market?
[HTC Sensation] bwilliams1:
Face Palm

Thank you..
[HTC Sensation] Fast-Droid:
Just an FYI..not sure if already mentioned but If you remove or freeze the stock ''GALLERY APP'' Flash player will not work even if you applied the lsears fix...
[HTC Sensation] DonJuan692006:
Download and run Wifi Analyzer from the market and check your wifi signal using CM 7 and Sense. The app will give you the actual power reading vice just bars and you'll be able to make a more educated analysis. Not saying your wrong or anything since I don't have that issue but it would clarify if its actually a problem or just a difference in how the ROMs display the signal.
[HTC Sensation] jetfin:
my gallery is frozen and flash works just fine in dolphin hd...
[HTC Sensation] bxlegend:
Wi-Fi is an iffy subject when there are so many factors that can affect it. Give a rundown of your setup so we can have a clearer picture. List type of router and other wireless devices connected to the network.
[HTC Sensation] chrisnk204:
Ok did the tests needed took me a couple hours but its definitely the rom i went back to a sense rom sat in the exact same place under the exact same conditions and had waaayy better connection downloaded wifi analyzer to confirm too idk wats goin on
[HTC Sensation] atlp99:
As others have pointed out, CM7 displays fewer bars for wifi but the actually reception is the same wifi analyzer shows the same reception for both.

I actually have fewer issues with WiFi calling dropping out on CM7 than on stock sense ROM, even though there are fewer bars displayed.
[HTC Sensation] mrg02d:
speedtest app and be done with it.

matt
[HTC Sensation] pgallard:
Please can anyone tell me why only shows 562MB Memory Ram.

The Sensation has 768mb

Thanks
[HTC Sensation] fr0zenblood75:
The rest of the ram is used for the gpu I believe.
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
GPU, Dalvik, kernel, etc...
[HTC Sensation] El Daddy:
I'm having market problems too. I don't think it's ROM specific because my Xoom and my gal's incredible are having the same issue.
[HTC Sensation] Shagman68:
When using my wired headset, i can click the headset button to answer a phone call, but when i click it again to hang up. It will not hang up. I have to wake the phone, then press the on screen hang up button. Any fix for this?
[HTC Sensation] wadill:
Hey guys I've had a thread in q&a for a few days now with one grateful person trying to help. But I have a small issue I hope someone can help with before I full wipe and troubleshoot from scratch.

I have a process HTC_ebdlog constantly giving errors and draining my battery. Albeit much better with #10. I have screens of system tuners log. Running faux 2.4r2 ( I think) no UV or anything.
[HTC Sensation] aNYthing24:
I have no issues with the latest version (3.3.11).
[HTC Sensation] Jiggs82:
Like seriously when is our Sensation is going to get nightlies??? i feel like its taking a little longer than other devices excluding the Evo 3D lol but for reals im dying for some nighlty flashin or at least a stable build because its already been 7 months:(
[HTC Sensation] btbuck1:
Ditto. I long for the day that we get a Cyanogen build with the stability, speed and battery life of the Mytouch4G or G2.

CM was a godsend to those devices, and I'm so ready to get off sense.

But I can't deal with the battery life and the warming up that the current builds have. I come every day and check, and all i read are more problems =(
[HTC Sensation] bxlegend:
Connect your phone to your computer and using ADB enter the following command:

adb shell logcat > /sdcard/logcat.txt

Have someone call you or call yourself from another line. Answer with the headset button, speak a little and then hang up with the button. Hit Ctrl+C on your computer to stop the logcat. If you were able to reproduce the bug and it would not hang-up using the headset button, submit the logcat to http://pastebin.com and post the link here.
[HTC Sensation] Jiggs82:
Yeah even though we all know its still in Alpha mode but because its titled as a 'daily driver" we think its fine but in true reality it can't be ugh its bad in here smh
[HTC Sensation] bxlegend:
I wish people will stop spamming the thread asking about nightlies and how they need to flash their phone with a new ROM every night!

---------- Post added at 01:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:21 AM ----------

Where do you see "daily driver" in the title? It says Alphafied for a reason!
[HTC Sensation] Phateless:
Agreed. The sense of entitlement is ridiculous. I'm still amazed that all this is for free.

This rom is my daily driver because sense is less practical to me.
