What do you mean it does not work?

It does not work at all?

Please explain more, so I can try to help you. :)

Try covering the light sensor on the top left hand of your phone, and see if the screen dims at all. If it doesn't then, you should probably re-flash the kernel. Did you wipe before flashing VI? Wiping is pretty much a mandatory step, it has solved many issues for many users.

Try re-flashing the kernel first, and then if this does not work, wipe everything, and start from scratch.

Auto-brightness does work well enough in this ROM even though it is not perfect. However, a known issue is when playing video, the on-screen brightness changes according to the video content rather than the light sensor / static brightness level. (This MAY be fixed in the next release, although don't quote me on it.)
[HTC Sensation] iverson3-1:
Thanks. Appreciate it.
[HTC Sensation] socali:
Since it's the same problem no matter what rom and kernel you're using, I think you need to check these:

How many home screens do you have?

How many icons and widgets do you have on them?

How big is the wallpaper you're using?

Try using different wallpaper, remove widgets, decrease number of screens.. I'm pretty sure one of those will do the trick.

---

Interesting catch! I will fix it soon.

---

The script is removing rom related scripts, will work with all kernels.

---

Thank you! This is very helpful, since I never got this issue.

I will try to post a fix soon.
[HTC Sensation] hipwell:
Thanks for your reply dude. I didn't see it. I reflashed the rom and kernel and all is good now.

By not work, I meant it would be stuck on full brightness when set to auto weather the sensor was covered or not.

I've found another bug with the launcher. For some reason every now and again my 5 quick access apps at the bottom keep dissapearing, reloading nova sorts it though.

[HTC Sensation] fr0zenblood75:
Weird issue with quad lock. Both camera and phone open the camera and both mms and unlock, unlock :/
[HTC Sensation] HunnyBearLewis:
Are you sure you aren't just swiping to a different "quick access" (dock) panel? By default it has 3 pages of dock. The ones to the left and right are just blank til you add apps.
[HTC Sensation] socali:
I think you flashed the Service Pack after the Quad Lock.. Reflashing the quad lock should fix it.

---

You can also prevent this from happening by going to Nova settings -> Dock -> Dock pages -> 1

Phone FC Fix for VI 4.0.1 by Socali

Phone FC Fix for VI 4.0.1 by Socali

This is a fix to the random Phone FC (crash), based on a logcat captured by Shagman68.

Since I do not experience this crash myself, please test and report back.

Download Flashable: phone-fc-fix-vi401-socali.zip

EDIT: Original fix had a cosmetic issue with notification background color (as designed, but I did not like it). Please download and flash again.

This is the result of hours of effort researching, fixing and testing. You're welcome! :)
[HTC Sensation] rmk40:
Nice work again! How did you end up resolving it in smali? As in, what was the technical solution, really curious. Also, ping me offline if you can, would like to discuss something with you.

Cheers. :)
[HTC Sensation] Nucleotide:
Would like to discuss something with him eh??

I sense a possible new addition to the VI crew. :D
[HTC Sensation] socali:
Thanks!

This is what I noticed in the logcat:

The kicker was that the exception comes from systemui, not from the phone itself.. I think Shnizlon missed it when he ported it over (like the USB dialog messages). I'm not 100% sure this is the only root cause, as there are other errors there, but that was the fatal one.

After fixing that, I got gray background on some of the notifications.. What's interesting is that it seems to be as-designed. Hopefully I didn't break anybody's notification that will now be black text on black background.
[HTC Sensation] pnut22r:
Forgive me if this is already the case. Socali, can you start thread with all of your VI fixes/mods? It's hard to find them sometimes.
[HTC Sensation] xHighAlert:

I'd be happy to add all of them to post #2 or #3 actually.
[HTC Sensation] appletechsupport:
Please do. An occasional update to those posts with links to latest suggested kernels, patches, maintenance scripts and options would be very helpful.

Great job on the fixes socali, and thanks for the update rmk :-)

I do have a few more little graphical updates I'm working on to add soon but its more than slow going at the moment as I'm currently working one handed! Carpel tunnel officially sucks nuts!

Thank you for your help the other day too socali (pm), sorry I haven't been able to reply sooner.
[HTC Sensation] DarkPrinceByWWW:
Please do not include other kernel as the default one or at least give us the choice on flashing. As Sebastian makes some tweaks, it's not that easy to just other kernels like bricked kernel (badass governor, swipe2wake, aroma installer). Bricked give us the full control over min/max clock, gpu oc/not oc, governor etc. Just because of that and because we do not need to create own start up scripts, I will prefer his kernel ;-)

At least, I hope that just flashing other kernels over Sebastians won't become troublesome :-)

Thank you very much in advance for the update!

Edit: Here is also some nice add on which could be included in the coming update xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=780828
[HTC Sensation] :
Could somebody please give a little more detail on the battery calibration script that comes with this ROM?

I missed a trick and installed it part way through a charge, then read that the preferred route was a full charge....so will the calibration have still run ok?
[HTC Sensation] boomboomer:
I'd suggest the stock HTC kernel be included as a starting point for the ROM, that way it keeps it simple for those using other kernels, also to go back if mistakes happen with other kernels?

---------- Post added at 10:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:09 AM ----------

Just boot into CWM and reset battery stats, I think the script only runs once on the first boot?

[HTC Sensation] StuartTheFish:
Has anyone else noticed a delay when first starting a call? I can hear the phone answer, but then there's a delay of a couple of seconds before I can be heard by whoever's on the other end.

It's also started forgetting my ringtone on reboot too, even though it's in system/media/audio/ringtones as needed with all permissions set correctly.

Not big problems granted, but annoying none the less!
[HTC Sensation] kevin.26:
You have the solution to that prob at build.prop

I don't remember right now the part that you have to change/erase, but it's in the build.prop

---------- Post added at 02:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:37 PM ----------

Ok, problem solved, it was me that I didn't put the PIN number :facepalm:
[HTC Sensation] boomboomer:
I've not noticed any delay with calls, other than a short wait before it starts ringing - but that can be the telecoms system delay in connecting.

I have lost the ringtone and other sounds on the odd occasion, but only after I've flashed an update/kernel etc. they seem to 'stick' okay for me.
[HTC Sensation] fr0zenblood75:
Is it still ok to flash latest service pack and quadlock with todays beta?
[HTC Sensation] evilged:
Only way I found of getting the ringtone etc. to stick was to delete/rename/disable the file /system/app/com.htc.sdm.apk its some sort of htc soundset profile and it kept resetting everything for me, once it was gone I only loose sounds when I have mounted the SD card.

Haven't experienced the delay in answering though.

G
[HTC Sensation] StuartTheFish:
It's not a delay in answering, once the call has been answered it takes a second or two for them to start hearing me. Weird.
[HTC Sensation] boomboomer:
You have a CPU frequency cap during screen off?
[HTC Sensation] DarkPrinceByWWW:
Could also maybe this be fixed within the next update?

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=25207548&postcount=6982

Would really like to use sweep2wake :)
[HTC Sensation] StuartTheFish:
Yeah, at 384MHz, but the screen is still on for the start of the call anyway. The delay is only in them hearing me too, I can hear them fine it seems.
[HTC Sensation] doogoshly:
i had that exact issue on my n1 when i was running CM7. i haven't had any issues on my sensation though so i don't believe it's a ROM issue from my standpoint.
[HTC Sensation] mslatter:
G,

You are the man!! I have tried SO many things to get my ringtone to stick, and I couldn't get it to work. Worse yet after all the changes I tried, when I rebooted the phone, I didn't have a default ringtone at all....it would reset to silent and vibrate only. After renaming the com.htc.sdm.apk file, my ring tone reset is fixed!!

Thank you SO much! Now this ROM is almost perfect.... Only little thing that bugs me is when I have a contact open and click on the icon to send them a text, the number doesn't get pushed into the SMS app....I have to go and "find" them inside the SMS app. Not as much as a problem as the one you fixed for me, so thanks again =)

Mark.
[HTC Sensation] StuartTheFish:
So what does that com.htc.sdm.apk actually do? It's not breaking anything else by disabling it?
[HTC Sensation] G23 Mr Gimp:
I believe the HTC SDM apk is the sound set manager. Deleting it merely prevents you from using HTC sound sets, but then you won't be missing that function as its not present in this ROM ;-)
[HTC Sensation] StuartTheFish:
Well I've just disabled it and sure enough my ringtone sticks now. Thanks guys, just got to figure out why I can't be heard at first on calls now!
[HTC Sensation] pettigrew95:
Using 4.0.2 beta and noticing that the market sometimes just stops working. Just hangs on loading. A reboot fixes it temporarily but after a few minutes it starts doing it again. I am connected to WiFi if it helps. When connected to WiFi everything else works like browsing websites, streaming Spotify, etc. Searched the thread but couldn't find any results with people with similar problems. Is this a known bug or is it just me? Any help greatly appreciated!
[HTC Sensation] rmk40:
The reason I'd kept it there was to get the default ringtones to apply on initial setup after a wipe. It should be easy to disable it automatically after the first boot as a temporary hack for now.
[HTC Sensation] StuartTheFish:
Thanks, I was just about to ask why it was still there if it's not needed. :)
[HTC Sensation] DarkPrinceByWWW:
@rmk40: In the 4.0.2 Beta changelog you say that ZRAM is not recommended, why? Bricked kernel installs its own zram script and after deleting the performance start up script in the init.d folder, there are no more problems with ZRAM enabled :confused:

Important Kernel Files Reset for VI 4.0.2 by Socali

SebastianFM Kernel v1.4.1, which is included with VI 4.0.2, comes with Sebastian's own thermald.

This thermald includes, in my opinion, extremely high temps settings. The problem is that those settings are hard-coded and are not read from the thermald.conf file.

Other kernels are expecting the default thermald and not this custom one, so they are not overwriting it.

I strongly recommend flashing this before flashing any other kernel. Even in-between flashing different kernels, as different kernels might include other files that need to be replaced/removed.

This patch will reset kernel related files that exist in the ROM's partition to the original HTC v3.32 default files.

This does not include an actual kernel - you must flash a kernel after this patch and before rebooting the phone.

Sebastian Kernel v1.30.2 Underclocked to 1.242Mhz for VI 4.0.2 by Socali

(This is the same kernel posted by me before, but in a new package that includes the Kernel Reset Patch, so you can simply download and flash one file.)

This is Sebastian Kernel v1.30.2 hexedited by me to underclock it to 1.242Mhz with a safer (or more conservative) thermald.conf file.

This gives you kernel closest to the original HTC v3.32 one with Sebastian's MultiTouch fix and ZRAM support.

I prefer keeping the CPU clock at 1.2mhz so that the CPU stays stable and cool and doesn't drain the battery as quickly.

I hexedited it instead of recompiling so that I stay as close as possible to Sebastian's build.

Note: This kernel will give you lower benchmark scores (about 5700-5800 AnTuTu score on my phone). This is not a bug, it's a feature..

Rmk, why so you use sebastians kernel over say showp or faux? I know I can install any, just wondering why you choose that one as the default?

Also, do you use the modded camera app from nodo for your personal use?

I guess I'm just wondering if you like to keep your builds with less mods for the masses? Or you like it that way for yourself?

Sometimes mods can be overdone for sure, just wondering your thoughts.

I'm not a fan at all of overly modified kernels. I appreciate the work both of them do and recognize the difficulty of doing so. In some cases, there are benefits to the changes made but they're subtle at best and tend to introduce different problems.

I've been sticking to Sebastian's kernels because he's maintaining them the way I would -- just making simple, necessary modifications. Actually, even that kernel is more modified than I'd prefer but I don't have the time to take on kernel maintenance like I've done in the past right now.

TL;DR - Trying to keep the kernel close to stock.

Remove Nova Launcher

Is there an easy way to get rid of nova launcher? I really hate it. When I hit the menu button, it only gives you NL settings, not ICS Settings. When I hit the Home button twice, it does than damn thing that Sense does, I hate that too. Really not like NL at all.
[HTC Sensation] aNYthing24:
You can turn that off, just tinker with the settings. However, if you are really inclined to, just look up the thread here and flash the uninstall zip.

You can't do that, cause it will not uninstall. Plus it is the only launcher on the phone, when I froze it, the Home button did nothing. Works good now with stock launcher in. Gonna make a zip in a bit to uninstall Nova Launcher and put back Launcher2.apk. It just works better for me with the stock launcher.
[HTC Sensation] Chronzy:
This one wouldn't work for me either. The only way I got the mod to work was to extract the "com.android.systemui.apk" from the zip and overwrite the apk in the "system/app/" folder using ES.

I got the "SystemUI has stopped working" message when overwriting, but after hitting OK it worked fine.

I really like this battery mod, thanks for your work!

Which is exactly why this ROM is so popular and stable, everything works and no need to add mods and apps that most don't want.

Personally I'm going to be adding Socali's underclocked version of Sebastian's kernel to my 4.0.2, as I want the best battery life - but it's easy to make that choice due to the unmodded ROM we've been given.

Thanks for your continuing work rmk40.

Having problems moving a couple of apps to SD card. Both apps support Apps2SD. They're very big apps, 100+MB each (Swords & Soldiers and Zen bound 2, from the Humble Bundle). I was able to move them when I was on the stock gingerbread HTC ROM but Titanium Backup restored them to internal memory after I flashed to VI and they're been there ever since.

I've tried moving them via the settings>apps option, via Titanium Backup (Titanium Backup falsely reports that they were moved successfully) and by uninstalling and forcing Titanium Backup to restore to external memory (which just fails).

I've attched the zipped log file from trying to move them via settings>apps. Any light shed on the matter welcome. The log was created via alogrec; zipped because the file size exceeds what's allowable for .txt

Hi eagerly awaiting 4.0.2 final build release!

@ rmk,

Any more fixes / updates incorporated into this release from the bug tracker, or is it solely based on fixes made previously by socali?

Since I have updated to latest socali service pack on 4.0.1, will the next release be anything different?

There are still a few bugs in the ROM.... but I do appreciate how heavily modded this ROM is and the amount of work gone into it.

Also, cheeky request:

Any chance rmk / socali can change the icon for the Sense camera for the one thats in the pure ICS rom?

Looks much better, and the Sense camera icon is the only indication on my hone screen this is a de-sensed ROM, not AOSP.
