Thanks for all the effort you're puting in to this! I and surely many others are appreciating it very much.

Would there be any chance that you could share some info on how you managed to compile CM7 for the Sensation and get it working? I mean, which device tree, etc. I've tried it, and after a lot of work, it did actually compile, but the thing keeps crashing at "NetdConnector". I'm guessing that if more people can experiment with this project, maybe we can have nightlies ready sooner.

Hey guys!!

You remember this is the development section right?

I have cleaned the thread from offtopic posts and I will be keeping an eye on this.

Keep the thread ontopic or risk a ban.

You have been warned!!
[HTC Sensation] gbzbar:
You're not going to be able to compile CM7 for the sensation from source yet, because not all of the changes Keyan's been working on have been merged into github. Right now, the only source on github is the non-proprietary sensation stuff, and that won't get you a working ROM. You need to wait until the source is posted. Sorry.
[HTC Sensation] M@rshy:
Still having WiFi issues. This is a real pain in the ass.

It looks like CM7 doesn't like multiple APs. Right when the phone sees a different one, it stops trying to connect at all.

Just had first black screen ever with S9, all stock except with latest radio v10.58 which I'm testing for a week now. I'm posting kmsg_last and logcat trimmed to last lines, maybe it's of some help...

Phone was not dead, I was not able to turn screen on with using Power or Volume buttons but adb worked all the time.

[HTC Sensation] chalie78910:
Today 10?
[HTC Sensation] bxlegend:
I've been running that radio and never had this happened to me. Have you been able to reproduce this black screen? I really don't know how the last few lines of a logcat will help if it was done "after" the black screen occurred. It would have to have been running prior to the black screen happening. Try to reproduce your actions that could have led to this black screen to see if it happens again and have logcat ready to catch it.

[HTC Sensation] sinisin:
I watch it a lot since faux mentioned this. I assure you it runs a lot. Even when load is down and CPU0 is at 192. Ghost in the system. Im betting it has a lot to do with the crazy battery drain running CM7 on the Sensation.

It's not that core1 is not shutting down but that the system brings it online when it is not needed. I see the system doing this all the time even when core0 is not being used.

I hope alpha ten fixes the GPS issues.
[HTC Sensation] aNYthing24:
No GPS issues at all for me. I used it to navigate somewhere just a couple days ago and it always had my location within 4-5 meters.
[HTC Sensation] Part Four:
There are no GPS issues.
[HTC Sensation] atlp99:
There are major issues with GPS on A9, at least for some people.

Using Google navigation causes the phone to either reboot or lock up with a black screen requiring a battery pull.

This happens after running for 10-15 min. GPS location is accurate and lock is fast until that point.

I have no issues with A7 so it is definitely a software issue.

As always, your mileage may vary and not all hardware is equal.
[HTC Sensation] Joolz03:
Happened to me. Was on the road using google navigation and it just freezes. The screen blacks out and nothing can be done.
[HTC Sensation] septix:
Ok, I have to agree with my girlfriend... I am a nerd. I've been waiting up all night for the alpha 10. It's 5:25 in the morning here...
[HTC Sensation] bxlegend:
It would help if you submit a logcat, lastkmsg and a walk through of what caused the reboot/black screen. Stop going back to previous builds before doing this. We can help squash bugs by doing these simple tasks so the Sensation can get on nightly status.
[HTC Sensation] sinisin:
Settings/CM Settings/Lock Screen Settings/Delay and Timeout-Trying to up the Timeout of the lockscreen does not work.

I may be misunderstanding what that does but to me it sounds pretty cut and dry. It should increase the time the lockscreen displays before shutting off, and if that's what it is supposed to do then it's not working.

Sent from where ever I was when I posted this
[HTC Sensation] mikebeatrice:
It increases the time delay between the screen turning off and when the lock screen activates. IE) if it's set to 5 seconds, then the screen has to be off for 5 seconds before the lock screen will be activated if you were to power the screen back on. if you hit the power button again in less than 5 seconds then the lock screen will not come on.
[HTC Sensation] MatMew:
Alpha 9 has definitely fixed the charging at 0% issue, thank god.

Alpha 9 gives me force closes on Camera (I fixed this myself with a lot of ****ing around, I think I flashed a different camera) & Contacts (I get by, I don't add new contacts often!) I think I just fixed the issue with Contacts though, by saving a number from recently called into Contacts, I've had the issue about 2 weeks and I resolved it about 15 minutes ago.
[HTC Sensation] sinisin:
Screen turned off delay-what you just explained, works fine.

Screen timeout delay, does nothing.

Sent from where ever I was when I posted this
[HTC Sensation] gbzbar:
The screen timeout delay tells the phone how long after the screen turns off by itself it can be unlocked without going to the lockscreen. For example, if you set it to 5 seconds, then you can let the phones screen turn off, and within five seconds hit the power button, and you will bypass the lockscreen.
[HTC Sensation] bxlegend:
Camera issue is known and contact issue was addressed and solved. Bet you was using the leaked Google+ from ICS and the reason why your contact issue is solved is that you installed the update from the market. Please search and do not repeat what has been said. If you still have problems submit a logcat/lastkmsg.

---------- Post added at 02:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:58 AM ----------

They both do the same thing but under different conditions.

Screen Timeout Delay = When the screen automatically turns itself off, how long should we wait to lock the device.

Screen Turned Off Delay = When you turn off the screen (i.e. press your power button), how long should we wait to lock the device.

I hope this helps you to finally understand what these settings do. If it's still not working, submit a logcat.

[HTC Sensation] Sdobron:
I feel like that's a kernel issue, not ROM. That battery drain doesn't exist on Tiamat kernel, but Faux drains 2 to 3 times more in standby. Tiamat is currently my preferred kernel after running it for about 2 weeks.
[HTC Sensation] Part Four:
It's an issue with the ROM, not the kernel.
[HTC Sensation] JoeSzymkowicz:
I was using tiamat aswell and my results were about the same as faux. I'm thinking about trying Sense again until a10 comes out just to see if battery is dramatically different.
[HTC Sensation] BobbyHill:
Same here. I had no problems when I was just quickly testing it out. When I tried to go to somewhere an hour away the other day, though, I noticed it wasn't telling me where to go after about 10 minutes and when I picked up the phone it was completely locked up.
[HTC Sensation] rapid1:
OK

I am really starting to think I just have a cursed phone, the Cyanogenmod did not work on my Sensation, as is the case with most roms. Either they install and then either I cannot make calls through T-MO or my Wireless connection does not work. These are both must haves because I work from home, but my smart phone does not have adequate signal in my home (From any carrier I have tried Sprint, Verizon, At&t, and T-Mo none have signal in my house, but all have signal 100 yards from my house). Please don't get me wrong my phone is Rooted using the Revolution root method, but roms and my phones radios have mega difficulties in general! :cool: With this I get an infinite loop of the Android and his skate board in blue with the rotating arrow over and over again but it never fully boots.
[HTC Sensation] blahbl4hblah:
The changes that kmobs adds to the builds are one in the same. All changes get added onto all compiled builds doesn't matter if its alpha or nightly
[HTC Sensation] Phateless:
Wipe data and format /system before flash.

You're definitely doing something wrong.
[HTC Sensation] dsp4774:
Not necessarily.

My first Sensation acted in a similar fashion. It was definitely a hardware defect, which became very apparent when the phone was reverted fully back to stock and it still did the boot loop nonsense. After getting a warranty replacement, flashing ROMs and the like worked exactly as it should.

I've been in this phone flashing business for several years, and I KNOW I followed directions with the first Sensation to the letter. This person might have a defective phone, and probably needs to fully revert to stock to get a warranty replacement.
[HTC Sensation] Gillion:
Shut down CORE 1

One of the problems I noticed with CM7 A9 is the constant on/off cycle of CPU CORE 1.

I have observed this happening even when I am using the conservative governor... and no apps opened from a cold reboot.

The tool I used to watch the processors switch on and off was System Tuner by 3C

I am using Faux kernel 0.2.3_R

Now I am in the process of trying an experiment that I wouldn't mind if other people try as long as you know how and tell me what happens on your end.

But please do so at you own risk.

I do not know what instabilities will arise from this.

The main objective of this experiment is to prevent CPU core 1 from running. This effectively runs the CPU as a single core device with only core 0 active irrespective of load or governor.

A reboot will restore normal operation as I have not been convinced this is script worthy as yet.

So far with this "trick" I am seeing my mA requirements fall even as low as 59mA

​

Step 1
Open Terminal and run the su command

Step 2
When your prompt changes from $ to # go to Step 3
(Please allow super user to have root access)

Step 3

echo "0" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online & chmod 444 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online

Step 3 send a 0 (off) to the file named "online" this will keep CPU1 silent... but it will change again if left alone for too long... so I had to make the file read only.

When Online is made read only you prevent the kernel/rom from being able to write a 1 (on) to the file.

This process of making the file read only is done by changing its mode from 644 to 444

644 means RW R- R- (read write for the first block, read only for second and third)

444 means R- R- R- (read only, read only, read only.)

similarly

666 meand Rw RW RW (read write, read write, read write)

I hope this helps... as I finished typing this my current drain went down to 20mA.

I am partialy aware that the CM7 ROM has an issue in being inefficient in how it manages both cores... so bare with me... I am fairly new to this ROM moding/tweaking thing.
[HTC Sensation] sir*mez:
I'm using this method until a fix is presented.
[HTC Sensation] droidgirl74:
@Gillion:

That's interesting, just disabled my second core like you did and ran a Quadrant benchmark. Got the same results as always: 2590 with standard kernel on alpha 9... Never thought that dual core management is actually that bad on Android....
[HTC Sensation] Fihlvein:
Please download and run CF-Bench. Quadrant is way outdated. And tell the results :)
[HTC Sensation] droidgirl74:
It says 4804, 1493, 2817. Whatever that means....
[HTC Sensation] Part Four:
Quadrant isn't designed to benchmark dual core phones.
[HTC Sensation] Fihlvein:
Stock CM7 gives about 8800, 2600, 5100. Seems that CF-Bench takes advantage of dual core rather well.
[HTC Sensation] droidgirl74:
Ok, it does that here, too :)

Funny thing is, it doesn't feel slower with one core disabled.... Guess it doesn't need it that often.
[HTC Sensation] scm_crash:
I only use CF-bench now. I uninstalled Quadrant because I couldn't even get it to test past the 2D graphics. It'd just stop and go back to the main menu. (Lame)

Either way, Quadrant doesn't give accurate results. And to be honest, I stopped benchmarking my phone because it just eats power and doesn't matter. There's no app our phones don't have enough power to run. Even with an inefficient kernel (like the stock kernel) we can run anything.

My phone is unclocked running bricked kernel. It's still smooth as hell and runs fast with everything.

I'm waiting for a10 before I switch back to CM7. If I'm unable to connect to my BT devices still with a10, I'm just going to stay with ARHD. Too many sacrifices to use CM7 if my BT doesn't work. The two things I really use a lot are HDMI out and BT. And BT is a must since I drive a lot.
[HTC Sensation] Gillion:
I did a CF bench test...

​

1. Increased the speed of my CPU from 1.026 GHz to 1.18GHz

2. Still continued using the conservative governor.

Opera has it's own built in flash...

So the battery drain is really fixed?.... i guess it is time to flash. I am definitely doing a full wipe..
[HTC Sensation] grivad:
Yes, battery drain between the two versions.

I was lucky to get 9 hours of charge on my phone with minimal use with CM7 a9. It'd drop about 15%/hour with minimal use. With CM7 a10, with the exact same settings/kernel and usage as before, I've been up one hour and it has dropped 3%.

edit: My phone feels cold now constantly, the way it should. With a9, it was always a little warm.
