Hello,

I installed the AOSP Mod from shnizlon on my Sensation Insert Coin 4.1.0.

Got some little Problems with it:

1. Sometimes heavy Screenlag

2. Can not use all Widgets. For Example Youtubewidget needs 6x3 but my screen only has 4x4. But 4x4 Widgets also did not appear correct. Only 4x3 are correctr fitting.

Anyone else with this, or anyomne can help?
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
sounds more like a rom issue, the shnizlon theme only changes icons for battery etc in systemui.apk shouldnt affect rosie launcher
[HTC Sensation] raydm:
why the html5 performance is so slow?? it seems like ics support less format than gingerbread !!
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
Hi Hawke84, I have been doing some testing and I found that not only Exchange can cause the missing options under the security menu, if you have an app with device administrator permissions, then the menu option disappears. I know Elixir Admin can do this, Lookout can do this with the Enable Missing Device settings, and MobileIron can do this. There are undoubtedly other apps as well, those are the ones i know of. In 5.x, I would get an FC going to security, now under 6.x I don't get an FC but the options for device admins and unknown app sources are missing.

I have also been fighting the personalize closing when adding an app issue. Here are some posts I have up on the ARHD thread, maybe I should have put them here first. :) I left them as originally typed instead of cleaning them up.

Now I can reproduce it easily by installing/removing TuneWiki. Maybe the problem is different for different people, but hopefully this will help avoid some grief. Maybe next time I will start at the end of the alphabet...

Edit: Spoke too soon, seems like some other apps are problematic, Voodoo Carrier IQ detector, XDA app, Zipsigner2, WiFiAnalyzer, or maybe my cache is corrupted. Too tired right now, uninstalled XDA and got Personalize working again, so I will have to pick this up in the morning.

So picking this back up has convinced me that it is more of a cache issue, but maybe there is something app-related. This last time around, I have not restored a single item from titanium but installed each one from the market.

I went back and was able to get all 60 of my apps installed including the ones above, except for Zipsigner2, and Elixir2. I did see that personalize closed for a couple of them, had to uninstall/reinstall, but doing them one at a time seemed to resolve it. I rebooted in between each one, clearing cache and dalvik, and everything worked fine for the installations, but as soon as I install those two apps, individually or together, I get the personalize close issue. I can uninstall them, and the problem goes away. I have tested this a few times now. Zipsigner2 I can live without, but I really like the Elixir widgets, so that sucks.

file copy from pc to phone is extreme slow. Is that expected?

I hate the sense theme for the ICS. How come HtC waste so many time just

not to let user to try the cool ICS theme?
[HTC Sensation] Lafenear:
Don't know if it has been mentioned, but when the alarm goes off, you can't unlock the screen. You'll have to press the power button and turn the screen off, and then turn it back on again to dismiss it or snooze.
[HTC Sensation] k0zmic:
I think that slow USB file copy is a known issue.

It gives them a unique selling point to differentiate their phones but yeah an option to have the normal ICS theme would be nice.
[HTC Sensation] Electronic Punk:
Might be making some progress regarding the old Maps and wifi being on all the time.

Appears my maps is being used for location data for weather and maps in turn is using wifi for location. Disabled both so will see how it goes.

Time since charge 24 hours and I have 12% battery left.

So yeah, doing very well considering that I keep playing with it aswell :D
[HTC Sensation] NocturnalRebel:
Hm. What is the normal widget size? In Sense the biggest is 4x4 and what should biggest be in ICS?

And i don´t have only the theme, i´ve the AOSP Mod! So there is more change than the Icons App-Drawer also changed...
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
Ah ok sorry I thought u were just using them theme, I thought 4x4 was biggest for aosp launcher too. Not sure on sense at the moment with 18% battery so can't test.. something doesn't sound right though!
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
I don't have that problem. I can drag the ring up and the alarm stops.
[HTC Sensation] NocturnalRebel:
Original ICS Youtube Widget has 6x3 and i´ve also other widgets wich does not fit.

RILs

I'm currently using Pyramid3D 2.3.4 Gingerbread ROM with the newest firmware update "Mike's Latest ICS Firmware (No need to SuperCID)". After this update I've noticed the phone is indeed snappier :)

My question:

Do I need to flash the rils if I stay with this gingerbread ROM? Kind of confused. I have a T-mobile Sensation 4g.

EDIT: I currently have HTC 2.2.0173 HMQ as my ril with the new updated firmware and radio (11.65.3504.00p_11.19.3504.29_2). So do I need to download the new ril file created by omar on the first page (4.0.0003HMQ)? On the side note, what's not suppose to be working if I don't download the ril? Everything seems to be ok.
[HTC Sensation] dwsmith:
I re-formatted my SD card, and now whenever the screen timeouts, the soft keys stay lit, and the power button doesn't wake up the screen.

This wasn't an issue prior to re-formatting to see if it would fix the SD card transfer speed.

What can I do about this? I have to do a battery pull every time now.

My phone only functions correctly now when the SD Card is out. I had the phone format the SD card so it should be set up correct.

This is on ARHD 6.0.2

My SD card is 32GB with 29GB free, and now when I go to download a game, it says I don't have enough free space.
[HTC Sensation] galaxys:
Yes, u need the correct new RIL with GB lib's...Thought I saw it zipped up in the radio or ril thread...

It may work without but not efficiently.
[HTC Sensation] McLongDong:
You responded as I was editing my post :p. Can you answer this for me. I'm just going to copy and paste what I wrote above.

Question.

I currently have HTC 2.2.0173 HMQ as my ril with the new updated firmware and radio (11.65.3504.00p_11.19.3504.29_2). So do I need to download the new ril file created by omar on the first page (4.0.0003HMQ)? Do I flash this .zip or is there a particular way to do it? On the side note, what's not suppose to be working if I don't download the ril? Everything seems to be ok.
[HTC Sensation] galaxys:
Locking on the signal may not always work for example. It's recommended to always match radio w/RIL...but it's u'r choice. Just make sure the 0003hmq zip has the Gingerbread lib's in it and just flash from recovery.
[HTC Sensation] McLongDong:
How do you check if the Gingerbread lib's is in it?
[HTC Sensation] galaxys:
I guess whoever created the zip should know or made a comment. Probably its all set to go... U can always flash back to 0173 if it doesn't work out for u. ;)
[HTC Sensation] sromer:
Has anyone had the problem where you can't restore contacts after flashing the new firmware + ICS?

When i try to do it, it says "Failed to parse Vcard for unexpected reason(File ended during parsing BASE 64 binary)"

EDIT

I couldn't find a fix but i still had all my messages so i added them again using those.
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
the ril posted by omar is newer and you can try it to see if it works ok, the ril that came with your radio is kinda muddled together for gingerbread its got a file missing cos it causes issues. it is really confusing, took me a while to get my head around it.

Id say give the newer ril a go after backing up, if it doesnt work go with the ril i posted in the first page as matched to your radio. hope this helps a bit..

If it doesnt work you'll know, you wont get any baseband, no simunlock or signal!
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
try fix file system in recovery followed by fix permissions.
[HTC Sensation] Electronic Punk:
Looks like the location service is keeping wifi on, if I turn off wifi in there, it can't download the weather :s

Just confirming that anyway - why does it need wifi for that tho? :S
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
thats interesting, have u got intergrade google locations with htc locations ticked or unticked?

i assume theres something messed up in the wifi sleep policy that stops it turning off.

liek you say dont know why locations needs wifi

ICS Sense/AOSP Hybrid Mod

I've finally updated my mod for 4.0.3, per request :)

I didn't think anyone actually used it...:D

Seems it's not so bad after all :)

Give the new version a whirl... Link in my sig.

Cheers!
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
cool, mind if i post it in the op as a different mod for people who like your flavor?
[HTC Sensation] Electronic Punk:
Nope and I actually have the laputa stuff frozen.

A google search indicates that location services should be working if either GPS or Wifi are on. It would appear that location services don't care if GPS is on or off, but if wifi is unticked then location services are disabled.

I just disabled location services (by unticking wifi) now so just checking to see if I can actually get wifi to go to sleep with the screen off (and infact no wireless network to connect to)

Also worth nothing that I signed out of Locations, having read this was cuasing some high battery usage, but this was prior to last nights Google Maps updates and I still have not signed back in after updating.
[HTC Sensation] vegetaleb:
Using this mod will make my ARHD like virtuous senseless?

If yes would the scrolling be faster?
[HTC Sensation] oFcAsHeEp:
Not at all :)

It's handy for people unfamiliar with flashing lots of mods in the right order, because it's kinda all-in-one-ish :D
[HTC Sensation] Electronic Punk:
Hmm, is anyone able to use Google maps and track their location when wifi is disabled?

I hae used GPS tools to ensure that the GPS is working, but maps is having none of it.

(just installed stock 3.12 and its not working on there either :s)
[HTC Sensation] vegetaleb:
apktool is not compatible with ICS, I wonder how some devs are working anyway??
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
not tried that specifically but there seems to be a few bugs with premium navigation
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
no apktool is designed to work with a different apk, it works on framework-res and ICS only uses systemUI.

its because ICS is structured differently..
[HTC Sensation] vegetaleb:
systemui from ICS is always having problems recompiling with apktool
[HTC Sensation] danilo081:
So ... regrding wifi accesspoint ... it seams that wpa_supplicant is failty on ICS ... ok one step further tor the fix :)

Now we should try one form 4.0.1
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
Yeah i dont know what HTC did to it but its a real pain to re-compile and make it work properly. I havent managed to do it! thats why kitchen isnt working with it at the moment i guess..

interesting idea, may work just taking the apk, depends how they put it together, i would imagine there would be xml files calling for libs and maybe more?
[HTC Sensation] Electronic Punk:
After last nights maps update, I have cleared data and its no longer eating up the battery so no idea there. GPS still isn't working but I will ty it again outside and can leave wifi on as well without worrying about it as it is also using ver little battery now.
[HTC Sensation] yepayepa:
FYI, wifi sleep policy, in French locale, is correct, "always" means always.

edit: please ignore
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
No ril fix is a fix for a derp of mine. Won't fix that. What Rom are u on? All 4.0.3 based Roma should have the rils for the radio included I. Hboot 1.23 package anyway
[HTC Sensation] McLongDong:
I'm still with Pyramid3D (my signature) a 2.3.4 ROM Sense 3.0 with the newest firmware,radio (11.65.3504.00P_11.19.3504.29_2), with ril ((4.0.0003HMQ)) which caused my wifi to stop working. How to fix the wifi please.
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
Sorry can't see sigs on tapatalk

Honestly I don't know. Looks like the ril package is incompatible with the older bases. Your kinda in New terority all I can suggest is ask in ril thread or maybe try some of the older ril packages see what they do if they work.

Sorry can't help more but I don't really know with this one :(
[HTC Sensation] McLongDong:
Umm so should I revert back to my previous ril? I had HTC 2.2.0173 HMQ and it was working fine with the new firmware update but will it in ICS ROMs?
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
If its working fine is say yes. But flash the ril fix version (trust me) its a hacked together version. Can't really explain but flashing the normal ril package won't replace all files so you'll have some of the non functioning ones left. Ril fix solves this..
[HTC Sensation] McLongDong:
I'm confused. You told me not to flash the RIL FIX in the front page and then your latest response you told me to. What should I do? Is that ril fix compatible with my radio (11.65.3504.00p_11.19.3504.29_2), ril(4.0.0003HMQ), and HBOOT 1.23?

EDIT:

I went ahead and flash RIL FIX and wifi stil does not work. Is there a proper procedure I should perform?
[HTC Sensation] k0zmic:
Had a bit of a random problem today with Wi-Fi not turning off.

A combination of 'fix permissions' and wiping the Dalvik Cache seem to have cured it.

Spoke too soon!
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
Sorry the new rils are quite confusing. Basically if going from a newer ril to an older one ril fix is needed. Initially I thought u were going from an old ril up to a newer one. Hope that makes sense. Sorry for the confusion!
[HTC Sensation] McLongDong:
Once again, you responded when I edited my post. :). I'm just going to copy what I said above.

EDIT:

I went ahead and flash RIL FIX and wifi stil does not work. Is there a proper procedure I should perform?

What I did:

1.) Wipe cache/dalvik

2.) Flashed ril (4.0.0003HMQ)

3.) Flashed ril fix

4.) Reboot

5.) NO WIFI!

Thanks for helping me. Hopefully we can get this resolve so I can quit bothering you.

exchange securit

I set up an exchange account and I have been asked to encrypt my sd card while my administrator haven't activated such a security feature (i checked the xml on the server side ) but how to get the provisioning xml sent by the exchange server and received by ics ? to understand what's goin on under the hood....

Anyone have had a similar experience?
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
try wiping the cache before we start trying odd things, wipe both cache and dalvik as i think the rils sit there.

then install the apk ive attached to this post. its a really handy little program which will tell u what ril and radio version is currently being used by the phone.

hopefully the cache wipes will fix it for u. maybe check with ril infos before and after the wipe to see if it changes, if not get back to me and we can try something else..
[HTC Sensation] yepayepa:
@Hawke84,

could you edit the OP about the wifi sleep policy in french locale ?

Cheers.
[HTC Sensation] McLongDong:
I always wipe but still not working. I have attached the ril infos. Again, I flashed Flashed ril (4.0.0003HMQ) then Flashed ril fix. :) thanks
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
Ok I thought that would solve it, I'm confused now! I can see the ril fix has done what it was meant to. All I can suggest now is work your way backwards flashing from newer to older rils till u hit a working one, otherwise its changing radio time!

Sorry bit of a lame fix but I'm outta ideas now :( if u find one that's working let me know..
[HTC Sensation] McLongDong:
If I were to reinstall the rom, will wifi work again? What do you think the issue is? I'm using ext4 recovery, do I need to mount system before I flash each zip?
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
honestly i dont really understand whats going on, no you dont need to mount system i've included auto mount in update script.

so to recap wifi turns on but wont connect to anything and its 2.3.4 android base since trying the newest ril?

you could try doing a reflash of rom without wiping anything, that will replace any damaged / missing files but you wont loose data (will loose mods and custom kernels) see if that fixes it
[HTC Sensation] McLongDong:
Yes, correct if omar's ril the one you are talking about.

I'll give that a go. Will reflashing rom restore the radio and ril?
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
ril yes radio no.

im thinking either a ril or something has become corrupted and this should fix it!
[HTC Sensation] TJD319:
Found another bug. T-Mobile My Account app doesn't work on ICS with the Usage tab. Displays "Not Available". Confirmed not working by others as well in Q&A section.
[HTC Sensation] McLongDong:
Ever since flashing omar ril, my wifi connection fails to connect even after reflashed the ROM :(. Do you think wifi will work if I move to sense 3.5 ROMs?
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
ok something else is going on. did u recently update the firmware package cos it could be the radio.

if you try nandroid backup and superwipe then re-install the rom, if that still doesnt work its going to be either the radio or the rom causing the issue. try that and if that doesnt work id suggest flashing an older radio but your the first ive seen with this much trouble on the new one.

out of curiosity did wifi work ok on ICS? if you've tried?

i've not looked inside omar's ril package but updating the rom should have fixed it. so you've also tried other older ril packages and they havent helped either?

~EDIT~ before you do any of that i just made you a test file, try that, i think there may be a file missing from omar's ril set.. let me know what ril infos shows and if it works!
[HTC Sensation] McLongDong:
No I have not tried ICS. I rather get this working before I move on.

-Yes, I recently updated the firmware package but when I booted in to my ROM. Everything worked correctly, such as wifi.

-Then I read that matching ril with the newer radio is necessary so I flashed omar's ril.

-After booting with omar's ril, wifi no longer works and your recommended me to flash RIL Fix.

-After booting with RIL Fix, wifi still does not work.

-So I decided to roll back with my previous rill HTC 2.2.0173HMQ.

-After booting, wifi still does not work.

-So I reflashed the ROM, and again wifi still does not work.

For the rest ril you gave me. Do I just go ahead and flash it? Do I need to reflash RIL Fix or anything? before flashing the one you gave me?

If I do a nandroid restore, will that be any problem with the new firmware update I have right now?
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
Hi, yeah try that test ril i posted. ignore ril fix, its just a normal ril with an extra file from an older ril to replace a bugged one for gingerbread.

Try the test one and see if that does it.

Nandroid backup will restore the error. i just dont want you to loose any data if for some reason flashing this stops u from booting etc.

What i dont understand is it was working with your rom so there were rils in place to communicate with radio included in the rom.

-u flashed new rils replacing old ones and it didnt work

-re-flashing rom should have over-written those files fixing the problem!

If test one doesnt work id suggestwiping and reflashing rom from fresh to make sure its not the radio causing issues.

Although if your thinking of moving to ICS this problem will more than likely go away so maybe think about upgrading..

let me know how the test ril works out
[HTC Sensation] McLongDong:
This actually made it worst. I don't have connection to data, wifi, and signal at all. Any other ideas? Or should I replace my radio completely. Will the firmware update be compatible with the older radio? If I do switch back, the radio will not work with ICS correct?

EDIT: I just reflashed the RIL Fix only and I got signal and data back.
[HTC Sensation] NocturnalRebel:
The URL to the zip is not there???
[HTC Sensation] sebach:
"If you flash and dont like it, ive made a flashable zip to remove the mod and take you back to stock HTC ICS build get it HERE

Thanks to Mike1986, these apks are from the ARHD ROM but should work for any ROM to return you to HTC Stock ICS"

where is the link of "HERE"???
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
oops sorry i forgot about this, i need to build it.

re-flashing the rom will remove the mod for now till i make this
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
arg, sorry i thought that might happen, thats the raw ICS rils un-modded, so omars package was right.

Im running out of things to try. all i can suggest is:

wipe, reflash rom and see if its working.

--if not its gotta be the radio. ive not seen anyone try older ones on new firmware but i cant see why it wouldnt work.

--if rom-reflash fixes it, something got corrupted that all our messing didnt fix some how..

sorry i cant help you more mate :(
[HTC Sensation] McLongDong:
Alright, send me a message if you know anything else. Thanks for helping me. :)
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
no probs. hopefully a full wipe and re-flash will sort u out. let me know if it does just so i can sleep easy at night ;)

I just went to htcdev and used the unlock bootloader info and now I have 1.23 with fastboot commands.

[HTC Sensation] KCuadrado:
Did you try fixing permissions in recovery, and wiping dalvik cache after that? I had problems with WiFi too, my router was not appearing in my phone's detected WiFi networks until I did that.
[HTC Sensation] McLongDong:
is it possible to rollback the firmware update? I can't get wifi to work anymore
[HTC Sensation] rddocke:
HTCdev tracks who unlocks their device with that method and warranty is voided. That was the only issue with HTC dev method. You could've flashed hboot 1.17 so you would have your fastboot commands also. Just for anyone else wondering about htcdev.
