There would have to be a really good reason to switch bases at this point. Nothing stands out as "broken" and I'm not sure how much better performance could possibly be. That said, we'll look at any new bases when they come out but it's unlikely we'll switch unless we see ICS 4.0.4 or something similar (i.e. underlying AOSP upgrade).
[HTC Sensation] jntdroid:
I thought the only difference in bases was Beats?

havent been on this thread/rom in a bit... is there a volwake mod while installing or a flashable around here? my power button iz broke.. :(
[HTC Sensation] Nucleotide:
I've been up and running for hour+ now. All apps restored from backup etc. Everything is running VERY smooth.

One thing I noticed though is while trying to send an MMS, I was prompted for Superuser access. Seems a little strange. :confused:

The image I selected was a photo from the Gallery - just a photo I took on my phone. The MMS appeared to send but the person I sent it to never received it.

[HTC Sensation] Mebborne:
Sometimes screen doesn't respond to touch

Hey Everyone,

Really enjoying this ROM. Just having one issue. Sometimes when I click on an app or folder on a home screen, it doesn't respond. If I wait a second and try it again, it generally works. It seems kinda random. Anyone else having this? When I say it doesn't respond, I mean it doesn't do anything. No blue outline, nothing. It just doesn't register my touch. I haven't had this issue with other ROMs, just this one.

Thanks!

[HTC Sensation] HunnyBearLewis:
just installed 3.5 and not sure if this is a legitimate bug with the ROM or ICS/app/etc, you guys tell me:

Once I login to the facebook app, everything looks and works normal except that data won't stop going back and forth at about 20-30 KB/s even when loading is clearly done. Never noticed this on earlier builds.

I've tried turning Active Notification off/on, tried Sync FB Contacts Off/On, Auto Sync Off/On.

The activity was noticed using Onavo's live data widget (refreshes every couple seconds) and I watched FB's data usage go up for 5 minutes before having to log out. Fixing permissions and a reboot did not work.

Though I love Inquisition more than FB so I'll stick it out.

What about better hwa? There seem to still be some bugs with it like In chrome and I get other glitches once in a while.
[HTC Sensation] tr1p7s:
Guys I don't know what happened. I superwiped then flashed VI. Now my phone won't boot. Like nothing will happen when I try to turn it on. When I plug in the USB, a dong dong dong sound plays.
[HTC Sensation] MESALLEM:
Does anyone else have random vibrations with pics roms? Any fix?
[HTC Sensation] rmk40:
System -> Sound -> Vibrate on Touch (uncheck)

And yeah I'll look for a better solution because this seems to happen at the lockscreen.
[HTC Sensation] tr1p7s:
Someone help me??? My phone won't boot after wiping and flashing... Did I brick it? Any way to recover? Screen stays black. Desperate!!!
[HTC Sensation] Nucleotide:
While Chrome is still in beta, it's a bit hard to know if it's a ROM issue or Chrome itself. I'd be pointing the finger at Chrome to be honest.
[HTC Sensation] AZ2ENVY:
Post EVERY single step you did in intricacy so we can help diagnose, otherwise

you wont get much help.
[HTC Sensation] tr1p7s:
I downloaded the Superwipe from Android Revolution and the Rom from the VI website. I placed both onto the root of my SD. Booted into recovery, superwiped, then flashed. Picked to reboot the system. It shutdown then never started. Plugged in the USB cable and I get the dong dong dong sound.

Windows says there's no driver for the phone. The device comes up as QHSUSB_DLOAD
[HTC Sensation] Nucleotide:
Make sure you wipe/format data, system, cache (use Android Revolution Superwipe) and davlik cache. I often do it twice just to make sure.

Try flashing the ROM again.

I'm assuming you've got the correct firmware installed, yes? Were you running and ICS ROM previous to this?
[HTC Sensation] tr1p7s:
I can't get the phone to turn on. The screen stays black, my computer doesn't recognize it. I don't know how to reflash without going into recovery. If you do, please tell me. Yes I think I was running beta 4. Running correct firmware as well
[HTC Sensation] Nucleotide:
Tried pulling the battery? Put it back in. Try turning phone back on and booting into recovery.
[HTC Sensation] HashTagHell:
Pretty slick update. I kept my Sensation so I could test before putting it on the other two Sensations in my house. Smooth so far. Just wish there was a way to disable the menu unlock.
[HTC Sensation] tr1p7s:
Yes... Even swapped out the battery for a spare.
[HTC Sensation] Nucleotide:
:eek:

Doesn't sound good. If you can't even boot into recovery you've got issues.

Dumb question I know but just covering all bases - your batteries aren't flat are they? :o

Try removing SIM and sdcard as well. I'm not sure if it will make much difference but worth a try anyway.
[HTC Sensation] dislplin01:
My clock doesn't work when I press to set alarm it goes dark ???
[HTC Sensation] tr1p7s:
I doubt they're flat. The first one had a 60+ charge on it when I started the flashing. The second I'm sure was full because I try to keep one charged when I need to swap. I just tried your suggestion. No dice.
[HTC Sensation] aNYthing24:
What does your computer recognize it as when you connect it to the computer?
[HTC Sensation] AZ2ENVY:
This usually means a bricked device unfortunately. IIRC this message comes

from the bootloader being wiped and only HTC can fix the phone.
[HTC Sensation] tr1p7s:
Computer says QHSUSB_DLOAD

The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)

There is no driver selected for the device information set or element.

If you visit chrome://version/ on your phone (in chrome of course), you'll get to see all it's command line options, including what is and isn't enabled.

I don't know for sure which way the hwa blame falls here.

chrome://about/ will give you everything.
[HTC Sensation] tr1p7s:
Will HTC replace it if I complain hard enough?
[HTC Sensation] fr0zenblood75:
Yea its very likely. That's what I thought,but I would get weird glitches in the launcher too for example when scrolling on a widget the whole screen would go crazy with graphical glitches
[HTC Sensation] AZ2ENVY:
Thank you for posting this by the way. I was about to use this script

so now I wont even use it anymore. Its officially a brick :(

Bricking a phone is the scariest thing about messing with these phones, sorry to hear it happened to you.
[HTC Sensation] snwahs:
Is the whole sending mms to iphone issue solved or is using a 3rd party messenger such as handcent still needed?
[HTC Sensation] Nucleotide:
Probably not. Even though HTC now provide the information and tools to unlock the phones it comes with fairly straightforward warnings - basically in the form of "if you break your device while doing it, it's your own fault".

I think I was reading somewhere that if you lower your dpi or something along those lines, it can fix glitches. I'm sorry for being so vague - I just can't remember exactly what was said or where or I seen it.

What script are you referring to?

I can't even send MMS to Android phones never mind iPhones. I think MMS is slightly broken regardless of phone.
[HTC Sensation] KingDavid63:
Yeah that's a brick.. don't send it in.. that's what messes us up.. do an insurance claim.. noob..

Thanks I wish I could rest that but yesterday I went back yo GB, which I Now regret because of the update of this rom :c but Now in gonna wait for another leak or the final release.
[HTC Sensation] Nucleotide:
Rubbish! I've used that script countless times while using both ARHD, IncertCoin and VI and have never experienced a bricked phone. From what he said, the script ran fine, as did the load of the ROM. Upon boot it failed.

Something went wrong obviously. Assuming the superwipe script did it is a pretty big assumption.
[HTC Sensation] lostSou1:
It gave me an error but still installed beta 7 ok !

[HTC Sensation] AZ2ENVY:
Because thats what he used to change the rom. Besides the Superwipe script

all he did was flash the rom. Maybe with the new hboot 3.24+ the Superwipe

scripts are wiping something they're not supposed to?

---------- Post added at 08:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:26 PM ----------

Really? Then explain how the only thing wiping data was the script! Wiping

wrong partitions=BRICK!
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
Same here, been using the ARHD superwipe script.
[HTC Sensation] Nucleotide:
If it was the Superwipe script I think we would be seeing a lot more bricks.

Did he check the MD5 hash before flashing? It could have a been a dodgy download of the ROM which caused it.
[HTC Sensation] AZ2ENVY:
Been using it as well with no issues before I switched to ICS. Havent used

a script since on ICS.
[HTC Sensation] VonFalkenhausen:
Search for "jjdoctor" in this thread, there is a Vol Wake mod you can flash that works perfectly.

[HTC Sensation] Five0nIt:
I'd have to disagree. I've used that script many times without problem.

Sent from my HTC Sensation
[HTC Sensation] Nucleotide:
The interesting thing is that after the script runs, the phone reboots itself - it's automated. If it was the script that caused it the phone wouldn't have rebooted, which it must have because he was able to flash the ROM. It was only after flashing the ROM the phone didn't boot.

Anyway, this is all speculation and it's getting off topic. At the end of the day, when it comes to flashing a ROM, firmware and unlocking bootloaders and all the above, you risk creating an expensive paper weight.
[HTC Sensation] sunlaw2:
Used the wipe script prior to flashing.

Only bricked in my jeans.

Oh wait...

That was when I was watching Kobe Thai.

Otherwise it went smooth on this flash.
[HTC Sensation] cenwesi:

I've been trying for a couple of days and no luck yet. Everything I've tried, I can't get it with APM. jjdoctor posted one a few days ago, but the APM is stock HTC in the android.policy.jar file. If you don't mind that, it does work. It will also change the SystemUI file.

One issue I'm seeing on all new ROMS (XE, XL) and in this cooked ROM. This is when using Office 365 Exchange that all appointments in the calendar, irrespective of whether a reminder is set against an event, gain a reminder when synch'ed to the phone.

Is this a known issue, and is anyone else seeing the issue? It is driving me steadily nuts!
[HTC Sensation] geoffcorey:
Since when has it EVER worked to upgrade a OEM released based to a higher android version? It never worked in froyo, it never worked in gb, what makes you think a dev can take a sense based rom, at 4.0.1 and upgrade the internal android base to 4.0.3 without sense rom source? It can't be done (even though this dev is building aosp apps, its just that, apps. And it's just apps that don't need any drivers or source from HTC to get working)

Anyone that is still having problems with mms, I finally figured out what was causing the problem. After setting up the APN, I still could not get mms to work, but realized that superuser kept asking if I wanted to allow it. I kept thinking, root shouldn't have anything to do with mms. If I would allow or deny, I still couldn't send an mms to work. Finally, I pressed the back button when superuser would ask, and now I have no problems. I hope this helps anyone who is still having problems with sending mms.
[HTC Sensation] rmk40:
I'm having trouble believing it makes a difference. How are people quantifying this? Are you sure it's not just coincidence with finishing media scanning? These ICS ROMs are slow due the media scanner slamming the system after initial installation/wipe. After "letting it settle", you'll notice a huge difference even if you do nothing.

I'm not a huge fan of flashing firmware from anything other than release/final builds, which is why I'd want to see a lot more conclusive evidence of performance being improved before I would recommend flashing firmware from a test/engineering build.
[HTC Sensation] ManCityFC:
That's kinda the answer I was looking for. Thanks, but you don't need to answer in that tone, I am not a dev, so didn't know that. Mostly always used CM Roms and they seem to update to new versions all the time, but I take your point about this being OEM. Thanks again.

Is there a way to get the transition animations from ics to work on this?

Sent from my HTC Sensation
[HTC Sensation] ManCityFC:
I agree with this, it's why I asked the question earlier about 4.0.3. I have flashed this now in error as I thought the IC ROM was 4.0.3, but seemingly not. I will now wait for your next update (which I think you said earlier that you would release soon? Is that still the case?) as I am now on a horrible Sense ROM again due to being mislead by a version number.

A couple of questions, do you think it will be ok to flash this over the top of Insert Coin?

Also, sorry to persist with this question but do you have any idea why phone book PBAP Bluetooth won't work for me on any of these ROMs?

Great ROM by the way, as soon as my Bluetooth is working I will donate and use this as my daily driver. Excellent work.
[HTC Sensation] sosquidtaste:
For what it's worth, I haven't updated to any variations of the new firmware package, and have been running v1.3.0 extremely smoothly and stably for the past ~24 hours or so.

I spent maybe half an hour letting my phone sit and restore all of my necessary backups (e.g. TB apps, SMS/MMS, call logs) before I touched anything, though. So perhaps that lends a little anecdotal support to rmk's suggestion for "letting it settle" after flashing.

---------- Post added at 11:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:23 AM ----------

If you're referring to what I think you are, check in System Settings --> Developer options and modify Transition animation scale and/or Window animation scale to your liking.

Personally, going up to 2x on Transition is enough eyecandy for me.

The super wipe script is fine. I used it, installed b7 then flashed v3.5. I don't think that would be the reason for a brick. After all you could perform the same actions through recovery when it cones to wiping data.

If im correct the super wipe script just does it all at once wipe data,cache, devlik, ect so its convenient. I've used it since I got my sensation in the summer and never had problems. It had to be something else that caused the brick.

Last time I bricked a phone I did an insurance claim. I spoke with a tech over the phone which will basically have you try a few things then eventually instruct you to do a factory reset. Honestly I played dumb and pretended like I had no idea why this was happening. Maybe not the most ethical thing to do but it got me another phone. Hope it works out. Always sucks to hear about a brick :(

[HTC Sensation] VonFalkenhausen:
Can you elaborate on this? I am still learning some of the basics, what are the practical drawbacks to flashing the jjdoctor mod? I used it with 3.0.0, 3.1.0b7, and now with 3.5.0 and it seems to work fine and do nothing more than provide a volume wake function. What am I missing? Thank you for any education on this.
[HTC Sensation] Pard0ned:
The files that are used to make the volume buttons wake the phone up are also used by the APM mod. To get both working you would need to make a new volume wake mod with the files that have the APM mod already included.

The chances are that if you can wake the phone up with the volume keys, you won't be able to boot into recovery etc. by pressing the power button. That's just the way it is at the minute. :(
[HTC Sensation] schoei1:
It works fine, but it replaced the AOSP power menu, with the stock HTC power menu. The only other thing it replaced was the 4G back to H, but didn't mention it before because it's only for US.

Update on the bricked sensation. I'm currently in Korea where I bought the phone. I took it to my phone store and they tried to get it working. Didn't happen so they told me to take it to a different store where there is a HTC service center. So I'm currently there waiting on them to try to fix my phone.

From the other thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1322080), it seems like HTC is able to fix it using some tools or software or something. Don't know.

They told me it should take about 40minutes (that was about maybe 30minutes ago) but I don't mind waiting longer if they can get it fixed.
[HTC Sensation] Nick L:
Just flashed 3.5.0 - when you play a song in the music app, then pause it and lock the phone, the player controls and album art stay on the lock screen even though the song isn't playing. Also, the album art on the lock screen doesn't change even if you play a different song.

Any way to work around this? Otherwise the new version is awesome so far - much better than the previous version and the stock ICS look is a nice change from Sense.
