This turned out to be a interesting thread ;)

I agree almost fully with AndroidPolice article. One of the reasons I'm not checkin' up on XDA more than a few times a month anymore. I just can't take the (sorry guys) n00bishness of it all.

I've on the other hand come to a pretty interesting insight recently;

I began working as a IT Teacher in August (Teaching Windows Srv, Linux, Networking, Cisco, IT repairs & service and a bunch of others) for 16-19 yr olds. Here in Sweden it's the somewhat mandatory last years of school much like Upper Secondary in UK.

Anyhow, to the point then;

I began fiddling around computers in the early nineties. Basically first generation that's grown up with PC's stuck in our lap/desk. We didn't have internet, hence, we had to investigate our problems in any manner we could find. I know I read through that darn Windows 3.11 manual twice, or thrice first week we had that PC trying to get the jinx of it.

Today it's a different era. Me and a few colleagues have discussed broadly and it seems the "kids" these days have gotten most of it delivered on a silver platter (at least a big majority). Most of my kids didn't even know what Command Prompt in Windows was. I don't blame them, they've probably never needed to use it.

I see exactly the same type of behaviour in them as I see on these forums. I'm trying hard to have them try finding solutions themselves like quite a bunch of "us" have, but it's sooo hard. It just doesn't stick with most of them. And if they're not getting a manual written line by line saying what button to press in the GUI, what to write there, when to press enter and what not, they just stop whatever they're tasked with and start youtubing or whatever instead.

The most weird thing of all is; if they get stuck in their ****in' worthless piece of **** games they'll find the solution quicker than I can say ****.

****, by writing this I've just realized I gotta throw in my resignation before I loose it in class. Maybe teaching at the university instead. At least then I'll get people who's really chosen to go there by interest and curiosity. I hope.

[HTC Sensation] JayIce11:
Hi guys, well grabbed my sensation a few weeks ago and instantly chucked arhd 3.6.5 on, nice rom!

On reading further, I see that arhd 4.1.7 is available with sense 3.5.

Now then I have searched and read tons of posts and cant really find an answer, and i realise "the best rom" for me isnt the best rom for others, so I just wondered if anyone may be able to tell me the main differences between these roms? Im not too worried about overclocking etc as for me the phone is pretty fast at stock, Like most I am interested in eye candy and battery life.

indeed any recomendations for other sense roms that fit my bill would be appreciated if you think they would suit.

Many thx in advance (sorry cudnt post this in arhd thread as havnt posted enuff yet)

cheers!
[HTC Sensation] dr9722:
3.6.7 (the latest version of ARHD) is currently the fastest and most stable.

With 4.1.7 Sense 3.5 is currently in it's Beta stage and has not officially been released. Therefore it does have a lot of bugs and can be very laggy.

If you are looking for performance and good battery then go with 3.6.7 if you are keen to run the very latest software but are happy to forfit performance then go with 4.1.7.

At the end of the day its down to personal choice.
[HTC Sensation] JayIce11:
Aha many thx dr, maybe i must of been reading thread wrong for the 3.6.7, in changelog(i think) i thought it said private beta! i see now thats the kernel!

in this case i will update to 3.6.7.

thanks again for ur reply
[HTC Sensation] dr9722:
No problem (Dont forget the thanks button!) ;)
[HTC Sensation] Modriin:
hey

I think the main difference between the Roms is, that ARHD 3.6.7 has beats and Sense 3.0, ARHD 4.1.7 has no beats, sense 3.5 and is based on a leaked beta from htc.

I use the 4.1.x Base since more than a month and i find it is a bit smoother than 3.6.x. The only bug I found is, when you have camera on and the Display turn off, the phone freezes and must be rebootet. But this is a known problem in all Sense 3.5 roms.

With 4.1.7 and faux Kernel 2.5b7 (bypass, intellidemand between 384000-1242000) my battery runs vor 24h +/- some hours.(Some calls, texting read in xda forums, synching News, Mail, FB, etc). For me thats enough.

You could do a Nandroid backup before you flash 4.1.7, so you could try it, and go back if you don't like it ;-)

I hope this could help you.
[HTC Sensation] UK-Sense:
Have a look at Coredroid rom, its the best looking rom by far ;) runs steady away on mine and the battery life is pretty good, but you have to let it settle for a couple of days. I flashed Faux b7 kernel and use System Tuner and my phone is fast, stable and looks the biz :D Honestly, Coredroid has the lot in looks.

Also check out the fancy new icons that come in the Coredroid thread, way, way better than the normal stock ones.
[HTC Sensation] JayIce11:
all advice and view points are great, many thanks for your input ;)

I was having a little look at this earlier today, think i may just give it a try :)
[HTC Sensation] adamgaltress:
Beats can be flashed!! I have 4.1.7 and it runs perfectly! Love Sense 3.5 Defiantly better than 3.0
[HTC Sensation] gustav30:
I also think sense 3.5 is better. For me the best feature of 3.5 is no insane amount of microphone clipping while using stereo recording. Also happy HTC music player plays back from where it left off. And calendar agenda widget doesn't constantly reload.
[HTC Sensation] computerslayer:
ARHD 3.6.x an all-around awesome ROM, ARHD 4.1.x has the advantage of Sense 3.5. BUT, ARHD 4.1.x changes your phone's identification to "HTC Sensation Z710e". This breaks some app compatibility; Android Market won't let you install some apps as a result.
[HTC Sensation] adamgaltress:
There is a way to change your Device ID so you can change it back, but this will hopefully be changed in the next update!
[HTC Sensation] erraggy:
Love the 4.1.x & Sense 3.5

When I first got my Sensation 4g, it was my first experience with HTC Sense. My previous phone was the trusty little Nexus One and I ran AOSP and CM7 on it.

What made me go with the Sense 3.5 version was that right after installing mike's ROM, I noticed some of the things that annoyed me in Sense 3.0 were resolved in Sense 3.5. Those things were the contact management and the mail app. I find them much more usable in 3.5.
[HTC Sensation] JayIce11:
Many thanks to u all, just updated to 3.6.7 will try for a couple of days, but seriously interested in either 4.1.7 and coredroid. So will give them 2 a bash and c what works best for me. Again thx for all Ur input.
[HTC Sensation] arich:
Another bump for 4.1.7, I have two sensations right now, and have both versions installed. 4.1.7 is smoother my battery life with the latest faux kernel has been fantastic.
[HTC Sensation] adamgaltress:
..posted this a while back, I know how to do it now, I will make a thread later on ;)
[HTC Sensation] JayIce11:
Flashed 4.1.7 today, so far so good, but cudnt mattch radio yet, link is broke
[HTC Sensation] knuddeknurft:
I've used both ROM's and for me the 3.6.x is the best because of the eye candy.

There more themes for sense 3.0 than sense 3.5 because there is no m10 tool for sense 3.5 yet. At battery life the 4.1.x is better but at speed there about the same.
[HTC Sensation] rawrfische:
Eye candy and battery life? I know this won't be a popular suggestion in the Sensation section, but you could always run a de-sense script and install an alternate launcher, while keeping the best sense apps (camera, gallery, mail, etc).

For me, I de-sensed ARHD 3.6.7, removed the Sense lockscreen, uninstalled some stuff from the script I didn't like (Go SMS, Launcher Pro), then added back HTC sms and installed QQ as a default launcher. Honestly, I love it. It resembles MiUI which I love, is themeable to not look like an iPhone lol, comes with a sweet lockscreen, scrolls smooth like butter, and I get to keep the best sense apps. MiUI cam HD recording bug? Not here. I've got the Sense cam. :p

Like I said, probably not a popular choice in a Sense-heavy forum, but just throwing out an alternative for eye candy and battery life.
[HTC Sensation] lucidfox:
I just loaded 4.1.7 after running 3.6.5 for quite a while. While 4.1.7 may be a beta, I have not seen noticeable lag or performance drop after a week. ARHD development has done an excellent job with the ROM
[HTC Sensation] JayIce11:
4.1.7 seems to be doing ok

[Atrix 4G General] maajstor:
MobileVoip is known to malfunction on Atrix (muted audio on both sides) and as I've seen in Market comments, some other Moto devices suffer the same issues. However I found a way to make it work under CM7.

1.

Settings ->

CM settings ->

Application ->

Perm. management - put checkmark

2.

Settings ->

Manage applications ->

MobileVoip ->

scroll down to Permissions and tap under Hardware controls

"change your audio settings" to disable it (see attached screenshot)

That's it. Now the program works as it should.

I don't know if there's an app that gives similar permissions management functionality. If you know one, it could possibly fix the issue on other ROMs, so feel free to update this thread for others.
[Atrix 4G General] hormosapiens:
mobile voip fix works

i use this on pc and on my wife's iphone4. it works great. on my atrix cm7 it didn't worked. this post fix this. good job maajstor :) i tested calls only but as soon as i can i test sms too. EU is getting closer :)

on Market comments a lot of users have text alert tone disabled after install mobilevoip. i will let you know if its my case too.
[Atrix 4G General] hormosapiens:
new ver 3.14 on AM.

@maajstor

my mobile voip on atrix CM7 (Ba2tF) worked with your fix. but today i am having a update in Market for mobile voip. have you tried the new 3.14 yet? with or without fix?

thanks
[Atrix 4G General] maajstor:
No, none of updates fixed it.

I've given up on this app since CM7 has built-in VoIP capabilities.

Settings -> Call settings -> Internet call settings

Under Accounts I set up an account that I have with nonoh.net (should work with any VoIP provider with SIP support), and under "Use internet calling" I set it to ask for each call. I don't need it for SMSing, and I don't use it for incoming calls, so this suits my needs perfectly.
[Atrix 4G General] babdxb:
Hi,

I am facing some serious issues while using mobilevoip app. Before I was using GingerDx v022 with alfs , It was working properly.

Now, I changed to Mini CM 2.1.9 by Naa with Naa Kernel V11, I can use the app first time only. It will log in & work properly. After logout and I tried to run it again it won't connect any more. But I found a temporary solution by pressing "Clear Data" in manage application settings.

Do any body have idea what could be wrong?
[LG Optimus 2x] oleg1981:
HI ALL. first about my phone.

OPTIMUS 2X Canadian

Android version: 2.2.2

Kernel version:2.6.32.9

Baseband version:1035.21_20110823

Builder number:FRG83G

LGE Version LGP990hN-V21B

its rooted and have latest CMW on it.

now the question!

this is my primary phone that im using every day to wake up to navigate with gps to go to internet on wifi and 3g. camera everething!

so what rom i can put on it without changing baseband and so on. is there rom that can put on sd card and flash it?
[LG Optimus 2x] Striatum_bdr:
You can flash CyanogenMod 7 ROMs or Official stock Gingerbread based ROMs, whatever you want. Baseband works with every ROM.

Concerning the procedure, you should rather read several howto in Dev section: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1037751

To root if not done, you can use Superoneclick as you are on Froyo.
[LG Optimus 2x] xtrustkillx:
CM 7 + vorkernel
[LG Optimus 2x] oleg1981:
i will try one more time.

so what rom i can put on it without changing baseband and so on. is there rom that can put on sd card and flash it?
[LG Optimus 2x] PartyBent:
why not just try CyanogenMod 7 ?
[LG Optimus 2x] oleg1981:
i can just put it on sdcard and install it from CWM?
[LG Optimus 2x] Striatum_bdr:
Yes like any other ROM... I think you mean ROM that won't replace your Baseband? Every ROM that is not clearly intended to be flashed with nvflash or smartflash will do it: Thanatos, Topogigi, Djdroid, CM7, and so on are all in CWM format.
[LG Optimus 2x] oleg1981:
wanted to install the rom. but before wanted to make a back up of my system! now when im doing backup from CWM its backing it up to the internal memory! not to the sdcard! is it normal?
[LG Optimus 2x] antec123:
from where you flash the CWM?? from rom manager or from rusty?

i flash the CWM from rusty and choose for external sd-card. every time i backup my system it always backup to external SD card
[LG Optimus 2x] oleg1981:
I'm doing power button +volume down. then selekting back up to external sdcard. but it saves it to internal
[LG Optimus 2x] oleg1981:
just did one more time backup. its processing and generating everething but when it comes to back up to sd_ext it shows no sd_ext found skiping the process.

the card is instaled and have about 7GB free spase, the CWM sees it as i instaled camera mod from there before. :confused:
[LG Optimus 2x] Striatum_bdr:
I think I will give up after this answer. Don't bother about sd-ext it isn't used in O2X, and has nothing to do with sdcard.

Read again and again and again first post in Rusty! thread about his CWM version and you'll perhaps understand how to flash it to have external sdcard used....
[LG Optimus 2x] SREEPRAJAY:
As i understand from your earlier message, your device is already rooted. Why dont you try installing the ROM manager from the android market and then in the ROM manager settings you can choose to backup in the Ext SD card or the internal one.

goto settings-use external storage-click and then power down your device. Start with CWM-Power + Vol down key...now you have the backup stored in Ext SD card.

Hope this answers your question...Thanks...
[LG Optimus 2x] oleg1981:
thanks! most understundable and answer by the theme! thank you!
[LG Optimus 2x] oleg1981:
is there any rom for 2X that is 100% android? no lg stuf. and is 100% working without bugs? and is there 100% copy of original stock 2.3.4 rom?
[LG Optimus 2x] antec123:
why don't you see the development section, there is a lot of rom that you can try. and it's based on 2.3.4. me my self i use GR5 vanilla edition (2.3.4) modaco rom created by paul
[LG Optimus 2x] SREEPRAJAY:
Try the Topo 2 SP3 ROM with HorsePower SR1 Kernel. It has some LG stuff though...but, it is very stable with all the goodies of GB 2.3.4. I used a few ROMs and settled on this cause of the stability and battery performance. There are a few themes for this ROM to customize.....although there are a few more ROMs in the dev section.

You have to flash and check ROMs if you have the time and information...if you want to have more information...maybe you can PM me. I can help you.

Thanks
[LG Optimus 2x] kolo2x:
My rule of thumb would be:

If you want stability, stick with stock. If you want bleeding edge, use an AOSP rom.
[LG Optimus 2x] gomzy27:
my dear friend i want to try Thanatos2X 4.2 ROM - Horse Power 2x Kernel SR2 thats your rom but i dont know how to do it ... It will be great it you could help me .. thank you in advance

I have been using the razr for 3 days now and I am totally in awe of this phone...its just amazing..the screen is awesome and there are no green tint or black botches...the UI is super smooth and super responsive...the battery has now improved after 5 charge and discharge cycles..the Motocast and smart actions apps work like a charm..all the games downloaded by me till now work flawlessly...and to top it all this phone looks absolutely stunning...

The only two minor issues are a weak wifi signal which however does not affect the speed when connected and a bit of fuzziness in the camera viewfinder which however does not show in the clicked image...
