stock kernel

I've read people saying that their fix for the battery drain was flashing a "stock kernel" but none of them point to where they got this "stock kernel"...

i suppose they mean the kernel from the original RUU from which VI is based...

anyhow, can anyone help me out? where can I get the stock kernel? more specifically, a flashable one :)
[HTC Sensation] k8sh:
I reflashed the 4.0 last night to get back the stock kernel and remove all mods. No change. I have browser freezing issues still, battery draining fast, screen unresponsiveness. But to be fair, I did not do a complete wipe. Only cache and dalvik wipes. I am planning on wiping everything, even formatting sd once I find the time. I love this rom since early versions and I never flashed anything else that is ics as I hate sense ics roms so I'm hoping all the issues still be fixed soon.

Yeah but if you look on the change log the rom has sebfm modded kernel in 4.0,not stock.
[HTC Sensation] sjgore:
I would like to know this too, as I'm convinced the OC kernel in 4.0.0 is responsible for the long browser freezes discussed earlier.

4.0.0 has Sebastian's OC'd 1.5GHz kernel, it isn't the stock kernel.
[HTC Sensation] TheUndertaker21:
A lot of fc while using this rom.

I love it but some of NY apos only shows a black screen. Any suggestions?

Bluetooth rebooting issue

I am running into an issue that i've had in almost every version of this rom to where when I stream Pandora via bluetooth audio in my car it will cause rom to crash and reboot. After it boots back up it will not allow bluetooth to work until I do a soft reboot and after that everything is back to normal. Anyone else seen this issue.
[HTC Sensation] StuartTheFish:
Like I've already said a few times now, overwrite the com.android.mms.apk you have with the one that was included with 3.0.0.

I'm facing serious signal issues for my network and i'm wondering if flashing to stock kernel will fix it?

Been trying to search for stock kernel but only was able to get myself to the ARHD stock kernel which has a non-working download link....
[HTC Sensation] dzap:
Okay so I thought my Bluetooth issue was fixed but now...this one is just..weird.

So I use Shnizlon's themes to flash stuff like the quad unlock screen.

Anyway, I also realized I didn't have the 4-in-1 reboot menu and the Reboot button on this ROM would show a silent mode icon (bug). When I flash Shnizlon's theme it fixes that.

Now...here's where it got weird overnight. Sometime yesterday I wanted to boot into recovery, and by force of habit I always go to reboot first, but this time it pulled up the options for "Reboot, Recovery and Bootloader". No idea how that happened but it showed up and I used it. Fine got what I needed done in recovery and all was good.

I wake up and my wallpaper has changed to the stock Sense one, and my quad lockscreen has disappeared, and of course the extended reboot options are gone. WTF?

I'm reflashing my quad lockscreen now but SOMETHING happened overnight because I can't make sense of why my wallpaper was changed to the stock sense one either...it's kind of freaking me out right now.

This new 4.0 ROM is some kind of demon ROM. I had absolutely no issues with 3.5 and now all of a sudden issue, issue, issue. What is going on?

---------- Post added at 07:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:53 AM ----------

I did have a similar issue with 4.0 only. 3.5 was fine. But I just did a super wipe, reflashed, and restored data and it has not happened again (yet). And now it automatically connects fine to my BT headunit. The first time I did this it was going bat**** crazy. It would keep searching and fail to connect, every other time it would only connect media/phone, or my bluetooth would be disabled like yours until a soft reboot.

I recommend a super wipe and doing what I did and seeing if it still happens.

I'm getting weirder issues now (see post above this), but at least bluetooth is fixed.
[HTC Sensation] nicolas0189:
Perfect!! Thanks a million :)

This solved most of my hanging issues too. :)
[HTC Sensation] dzap:
My battery has also been draining incredibly fast (I have not noticed it I guess since I've had it plugged it over the past few days constantly), but definitely odd freezing issues too. Browser would straight up stall the entire OS and I would have to do battery pulls. Had to do it three times yesterday. I just switched to Google Chrome.

I had come to the conclusion that it has something to do with Flash since it only seems to happen with flash based content (for me at least).

Screen unresponsiveness is far and in-between. I've noticed it, but other than the browser, it hasn't been terrible.

Hmm...actually after now that I mention all these issues, I think I should go back to 3.5
[HTC Sensation] nicolas0189:
Have you tried wiping dalvik cache? Another forum member (kpjimmy) suggested that for another problem and and it helped with that also A LOT!
[HTC Sensation] zero324:
I acutally did a super wipe before installing 4.0. I didn't even do a data restore other than contacts.

I have also getting weirder issues with 4.0 than I was with 3.5. I get alot of program stoppped responding errors from time to time. I have even tried another super wipe and clean install. I also verified the MD5.
[HTC Sensation] G23 Mr Gimp:
I have extracted and uploaded the stock kernel from the 3.32.401.5 ROM, and you can download it here :)

Flash via recovery and away you go!

Feel free to thank me if this helps! :)

Edit: If anyone having touchscreen sensitivity issues can flash this and see if it helps, please let me know!
[HTC Sensation] Sym_Link:
You can try this. It's HTC Calibrate. I am not sure where I got it from, but it was a while back. Seems to help screen sensitivity for me. Just install as a normal app. Doesn't need to be a system app.

HTC Sense Weather app

Hi,

I just found this threat:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1488325

To make a long story short, they guy got the HTC sense weather app to work on VI 3.0 (supposedly). I gave it a try, but I couldn't get it to work in VI 4.0, although some parts do work. The app will start but it won't pick a location or anything else, you can see and change the settings, and the live wallpaper will work temporarily until the screen goes off.

Would anybody be willing to look into this app/threat? I am very happy with this rom, but there are two things I liked from HTC Sense: the camera (which we already have) and the weather app (yes, I am a sucker for animations).

I already tried changing permissions through root explorer and nothing, I hope somebody with more technical/programming skills than me is willing to take a swing at this.

Thanks in advance.

UPDATE: I PM'ed the OP to see if he could provide more information, I will update the post if I hear back from him.
[HTC Sensation] christop911:
Same here :mad:
[HTC Sensation] erto90:
So multitouch issue and freezes are kernel related? I think not the kernel itself, but the combination of sebastian 1.2 and VI, right?
[HTC Sensation] honswolo:
wallpaper & wifi

so i have a issue with the wallpaper changing by its self?? i dont know why is this happening. wanted to see if it could maybe be the Kernel? I am running the 1.78ghz kernel. also having a problem with the wifi, it works fine if i browse the web but once i try to make a call it goes to crap. i would have to turn off wifi to answer or place a call. i use my wifi a lot, i dont get the best reception in my house and it helps to have the wifi calling working.

Please if anyone can tell me if they are having the same issues with this or not. Thx!!!!!
[HTC Sensation] StuartTheFish:
It isn't overclocked at 1.5GHz, since that's what our CPU was made to do. They were underclocked to 1.2GHz for marketing reasons, just to try justifying releasing the xe version.
[HTC Sensation] StuartTheFish:
All was working for me on the other kernel choices too, I was simply saying that this stock one also works since someone asked.
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
I kinda missed weather the weather app as well, but with the addition of beautiful widgets, you can get animations there as well. And you can edit the widget with the myriad of add-on themes. You can actually have the animation come on with BW after unlocked, pretty much like the HTC weather. I opted not to, because it gets annoying after a while. Here's a screenie

...As you can see, I have like 4 weather thingys running lol.
[HTC Sensation] erto90:
So you haven't multitouch issue and phone freeze with sebastian kernel ( the stock that come with rom) @VI 4?
[HTC Sensation] acavella:
Just posting my experiences with 4.0.0 so far. I am having no trouble with phone freezes (However, I did when i was running 3.5.0 and Sebastian's Kernel v1.10) Since flashing to 4.0.0 with the "stock" kernel w/ the ROM I have had no freezes.

I am also no experiencing any multitouch issues and feel that the touch is as responsive as it should be.

Just my two cents, but you may want to look at all these addons and other flashes you may have applied to VI that weren't created by the ROM developers and haven't been verified by the dev to work with the ROM.

Just a thought...
[HTC Sensation] HunnyBearLewis:
The issue is still here for me. Most people just don't notice it because they don't encounter it in the apps they use which don't rely on multitouch.

Download MultiTouch Visualizer 2 for free from market if you want to see:

1.Put one finger on screen. It's labeled 1.

2.Put second finger on screen without removing first. It's labeled 2 surprise surprise.

3.Now remove 2 and place 2 back on the screen. 1&2 likely switched fingers and now moving either one moves the opposite touch point

or play any game where you have the option of moving while attacking to see that if you hold [move] and tap [action], releasing [action] will automatically release [move] even if finger is still in place. At least, for me this is what happens.

Though on either 3.0.0 or 3.5.0 with the latest kernel from Sebastian (well, latest at the time) my multi touch woes would go away for days.
[HTC Sensation] mslatter:
Hey Stuart, I downloaded 3.0.0, extracted com.android.mms.apk from the /system/app directory, and pushed it via ADB to my Sensation (same directory). Rebooted into recovery, and ran "Fix Permissions" and rebooted. Using terminal, did a "ls -l" as root in the /system/app directory of the Sensation and can see the permissions match all the other files in that directory.

However.... =) When I'm in gallery, and try to share a pic using the green messaging icon in the top right of the screen, I enter the recipient and a brief message, and when I touch on the MMS icon to send, I immediately get, "Unfortunately, Messaging has stopped." When I go into messaging, I see the image there with the word "Sending...." but it never sends.

Am I missing something per your instructions? Is it possible it's an APN issue with my carrier? If so, I'd think it would just not send - I shouldn't get the error right off the bat right?

Thanks very much,

Mark.

[Edit] Stuart...interestingly enough, the MMS did eventually go through! Guess we can just ignore the error until the next version. At least it's sending =) Thanks again for all your help!

[HTC Sensation] rmk40:
I see the problem now. OK, we'll definitely take a look.

EDIT: I highly doubt this has anything to do with the kernel.
[HTC Sensation] StuartTheFish:
If the multitouch issue you're referring to is it being laggy, then no, no lags or freezes.

Literally all I did was copy the apk over into system/app using root explorer or es file explorer, then hold my finger on the file and set permissions so they matched all the other files in that folder. Once rebooted, it works with no issues, no errors at all, no matter which way I send the mms message. Of course if your apn settings are incorrect then that would stop it working, but as you said it still sent, it can't be that.
[HTC Sensation] rmk40:
I'm regretting the decision to include the 1.5GHz kernel. We'll revert it if people confirm that issues are eliminated by going back to the stock kernel.
[HTC Sensation] aNYthing24:
It's the touchscreen driver that HTC has borked.
[HTC Sensation] rmk40:
Yeah I'm not sure if we can fix it ourselves. Does anyone know if this problem exists in other ICS ROMs on the 3.32.x.x bases?
[HTC Sensation] StuartTheFish:
What I'm saying is I never had those issues on any kernel, I'm not saying the stock kernel fixed it.

I do not experience the issue with HyperNonSense, though I am using the stock kernel.
[HTC Sensation] sjknight413:
pretty sure it doesn't exist in AOSP roms as google fixed it for the galaxy nexus with 4.0.4.
[HTC Sensation] aNYthing24:
It exists in all ICS ROMs. Just download a multi-touch tester app and hold your finger down in one spot and press rapidly in another spot. They switch positions.
[HTC Sensation] rmk40:
Exactly. To be clear, this is the issue we are discussing right now.

Lagginess and whatnot in Chrome Beta is a different issue. I have seen that one too.
[HTC Sensation] G23 Mr Gimp:

[HTC Sensation] christop911:
I flashed ARHD and Stock rom from your other thread the issues with multi touch exist but in virtuous Inquisition is a several issue :eek:
[HTC Sensation] sjgore:
I underclocked the overclocked 1.5GHz kernel back down to 1.18GHz using System Tuner Pro (this was a few hours before G23 Mr Gimp very kindly posted a flashable stock kernel), and I can confirm that the issue of the whole phone freezing for 10-60 seconds when using the browser went away.

Not only that, the stock browser is much more fluid and responsive overall. I have done about 40-50 mins surfing overall in the last few hours, and I would have experienced the freezing issue at least half a dozen times during that time, but didn't.

To double-check, I put the frequency back to 1.5GHz, and I was experiencing freezing less than 20 seconds after starting browsing. Back down to 1.18GHz and it's fine again.

[HTC Sensation] G23 Mr Gimp:
It's because the mod deletes the HTC psclient.apk and modifys the SystemUI.apk so that the AOSP MTP dialog is used instead for USB mounting. I believe it's a simple string error :)

[HTC Sensation] R3dox:
I've seen some people already note the problem with the market thinking the phone isn't compatible with some apps (most notably: gmail). The market (in browser) mentions I have a Vodafone HTC HTC Sensation Z710e. Last version I used (3.5.0) also had the same issue, though then it was without the "Vodafone".

I had a look in the build.prop but I see no reason why it says either Vodafone or 2x HTC. The only thing I see mention any model is "ro.product.model=HTC Sensation Z710e". No mention of Vodafone anywhere. I'm not even sure this is really causing the problem, but this seemed obviously wrong.
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
Use Widgelocker with ADW notifications app.

---------- Post added at 03:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:35 PM ----------

If I have any market issues, I just adb push my edited build.prop from my computer. The edited one I use lists my phone as a Sensation 4G (TmoUs).

Do you have super cid? I would try doing that and see if it still happens. I have supercid and none of these issues, so I think its related to that. Maybe something with the new firmware required on 4.0.

Scratch that, I do have the incompatible problem but mine doesn't say vodaphone. I have two devices in my account according to Google, HTC sensation 4g and HTC sensation z710e. The latter is the one that says incompatible. The former must just be from before I rooted.

If anyone tries the apk and still has the same thing happening, simply type the first letter of the name in caps and it will populate just fine. I was told this on the old inquisition quattro thread by someone and it worked wonders.

Btw, I'm really loving this rom. Fully functional AOSP lock screen is amazing, best music app and the slight bit of Sense-ness (very good choice on what was left) is perfectly matched with the blue and everything. And WiFi hotspot works beautifully! Using my new HP TouchPad to type this thanks to this ROM. Keep up the great work!
[HTC Sensation] G23 Mr Gimp:

I personally had the same issue despite using the old MMS apk, but after a clean install of V 4.0 with the stock kernel I'm having no issues at all :)
[HTC Sensation] marcusgolden:
Is it something I'm missing?

Maybe I don't use my phone enough to experience some of these issues everyone seems to be having with 4.0. Basic messaging with phone calls from time to time.

(1) I tried using my default browser straight for about 30 minutes, but no freezes. Visiting a variety of sites.

(2) My touchscreen isn't experiencing any delays or problems. I don't have any games on the phone put the apps appear to be pretty responsive.

(3) I haven't touch anything with the ROM other than flash sociali mod for quadlock with aosp mms and apm fix. No volume wake!

(4) I haven't touched the kernel that came with the ROM.

(5) No issues with the market.

(6) Messaging app (other than the white background color, lol) works fine. I've sent and received regular, mms, and group messages both long and short ones.

(7) The dialer freezes initially but works it self out with a couple of seconds. And I can't go to gallery from camera, but that's nothing.

So, are these problems present with everyone using the ROM or just certain phones? If so, then what do I need to do to really test to see if my phone is having these issues.
[HTC Sensation] Nucleotide:
Thanks a lot for this. ;)

Is it likely to fix things such as the SMS/MMS force closing?
[HTC Sensation] erto90:
I have monitored the browser freeze and maybe i have discover something

The problem is that randomly, the core0 stop to works and the whole phone freeze ( on 1.72ghz kernel)

So i tried, as suggested, to "underclock" to 1.2ghz and started browsing

Al seems working now

I think there are some voltage issue at that high freq, or maybe some issue between rom and kernel

I've always used 1,72ghz on other rom, also on 3.5 without any problem

So the problem are stricted to kernel, rom or firmware (3.32 in this case )

Hope to have clarified something
[HTC Sensation] k8sh:
I'm taking your advice and underclocking the frequency on the default kernel that came with rom. The battery issues seem resolved so far...I could tell since even while replying to a single post on tapatalk before, my battery drops by a few percent which is ridiculous. And no drop so far. Will further test and report later.
