[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Right, in attachments are 2 files

1. Add CRT Animation ICS.zip - This will flash the modded files

2. Return To Normal.zip - This will flash the unmodded files and i have provided it just in case something goes wrong.

If something does go wrong, ideally i need logcats (type into cmd "adb logcat > log.txt")

YOU FLASH AT YOUR OWN RISK! (although i dont think that it has the capacity to brick your phone but i must stress that you do flash at own risk!)

Edit: doesn't work, I must have missed something in the files. I will try again tomorrow
[HTC Sensation] kingston73:
Hi, planning on trying out your rom soon but just wanted to confirm a couple questions: this already has wifi calling, volume wake, EQS and APM all built in? No need for any extra zip flashes after the main installation?

Also, would a battery mod for 3.6 work for this rom no matter what rom it was originally for? For some reason I like the blue circle battery with the percent inside and have a mod originally from Elegancia.
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
This ROM has APM, volume wake, WiFi calling and EQS mod v1.5 built in. You may want to flash the newest EQS v3.0.0 over the top of it as I only included v1.5

The battery mod should work but if it doesn't, just extract the framework-res.apk from my ROM, and use UOT Kitchen to change the battery mod :)
[HTC Sensation] teknomar7:
Updated to 5.2 from. 5.1.5. Didn't do a full wipe and it wiped EQM. Just went to the backup for now.
[HTC Sensation] gertjanw1993:
Sense force closes

With the 5.2.0 build i get much more sense force closes then i get with 5.1.0 doesnt really matter for me because the blazing fast speed, but is annoying.
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Of course it wipes newer versions of the EQS mod! I stated I included v1.5 which is true but if you installed a newer version, flashing the ROM will overwrite it! Just flash the EQS v3 again
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Use the 3.12.401 Rosie, it solves this hence why I include it as an option, I use it and have had a total of 0 sense force closes
[HTC Sensation] gertjanw1993:
Where can i find it? i did choose the one which says i wouldn't get any! Did 2 times superwipe and more when flashing it.
[HTC Sensation] teknomar7:
No problem. I'll mess with it more later. I just thought it was incremental.
[HTC Sensation] kingston73:
I haven't even used the rom yet but I already love the aroma installer process, it's great! I love all the options available, much much simpler solution than having a million optional zips to flash after the main rom is flashed. Looking forward to using it once it's setup, thanks John:D
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
That's why the changelog says "Full ROM" :P
[HTC Sensation] kingston73:
I'm currently installing this myself, when you start the install process there is a list of options with bubbles, first options are Tmous, orange, sensation xe...scroll down and you'll see either 3.12 or 3.24 rosie options, it explains what each one does right next to it.
[HTC Sensation] gertjanw1993:
The problem is, if i install that one again i need to do all my settings again and it is just set up..
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
On the aroma install choose 3.12.401 Rosie, I may have made a typo which means the it would say 3.25 Rosie solves FC issues :o
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Don't super wipe then :)
[HTC Sensation] gertjanw1993:
Hahahaha you made me laugh :-) stupid me is flashing like i did with my hero last week. Just got my XE and am messing around with it. If I install it again will I lose everything or can I just pull Rosie out and in?
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Just install but without super wipe and everything will be kept, all data preserved :)
[HTC Sensation] teknomar7:
I got it all working. Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] kingston73:
I like this so far but there's a problem and I'm not sure where to start. When I hold the power button it doesnt' go to menu, it just reboots the phone. Any ideas?

Also just noticed it says "safemode" in the bottom left corner, I've never seen that before on an android phone and I don't know what happened?

EDIT: I pulled the battery and rebooted, it was no longer showing safe mode but still did the auto-reboot thing without giving me options. I'm going to try reflashing the rom tomorrow, but for now I'm going back to a recovery image that I know works (need it working for work). Not giving up on this though, definitely worth trying to make it work!
[HTC Sensation] teknomar7:
You need to flash the firmware in the original post first through the bootloader, not recovery.
[HTC Sensation] kingston73:
I already had the latest ICS firmware installed, I'd started with ARHD and then tried 2 other ICS roms before trying this one, and at first this was working fine so I'm not really sure what changed. And just to clarify, it wasn't stuck in boot loop, it just wouldn't give me any reboot options. In other words I couldn't turn the phone off or reboot into recovery, it would only reboot back into the rom when the power button was pushed.

As a follow up, it's not hardware as I reflashed a backup and it works fine. I did add a battery mod to this, don't know why that would affect the power menu but maybe?
[HTC Sensation] KeiranFTW:
Yes, of course it probably would :)
[HTC Sensation] darkmantra:
Finally installed after some glitch. Want to share my experience during installation.

First Attempt:

* Install the 3.24.401 Firmware

* Install the ROM

* I select Custom Installation and do the full wipe select the appropriate options.

* Tried to save logfile after its says successfull installation but it HANGS waited for more than 10min and nothing happens. :D

Second Attempt:

* Install the ROM

* Select Typical installation and do the full wipe again select the appropriate options for my phone.

* Did not try to save the logfile and reboot.

* Stack at the boot HTC white screen, waited for more than 15min and nothing happens. :P

Third Attempt:

* Recopy the ROM to SD

* Install the ROM

* Select Typical installation and do the full wipe again select the appropriate options for my phone.

* Did not try to save the logfile and reboot.

* Finally it boots.

This is my 4th trial of ICS ROM while waiting for the final release. So far this ROM is really nice fast, smooth and best of all no FC encountered yet, even after restoring from TB, but haven't try installing app to SD. Overall nicely done. Good job.

I give it five stars :)
[HTC Sensation] Pard0ned:
Just wanted to say that I've just downloaded and flashed the update. :D

However, when I tapped on save logs at the end of installation everything froze and had to do three finger salute to restart the phone.

Seems to be booting fine though. :)
[HTC Sensation] caloyzter:
Got fallen asleep last night Jonny and F**k I forgot my flash drive with 5.2.0 currently at the office. I'll be downloading a new one. But you already stated that it doesn't work so if there's a new patch just post it after flashing 5.2.0 and installing apps I'll be testing your new patch.
[HTC Sensation] dgenx210:
Oh yeah I forgot about that. I also tried to save the log files but it's just stuck there. I pulled the battery then just booted normally. Everything seems to be in order so I didn't bother with a reflash

Which patch are you referring to? the CRT mod?
[HTC Sensation] caloyzter:
Yea dgenx the crt mod. Jonny said it doesn't work right now, I think he will upload a new one today. Flashing 5.2.0 now. :)
[HTC Sensation] darkmantra:
Installed the latest Extended Quicksettings v.3.0.0 with tweaks..so far so good so nice...;)
[HTC Sensation] dgenx210:
On an unrelated note, I'm definitely staying with DarkForest for the foreseeable future. Everything is really snappy. I don't even know why I switched to another ROM after using 5.1.0 :o
[HTC Sensation] caloyzter:
I think we got one small problem Jonny but I don't know maybe its just me. I saw the darkforest OTA app. I clicked it and it works! problem is it's downloading the whole rom. lol. Dont know how to stop it. hehe a little help guys. thanks!

Did the force stop thing but it doesn't work.
[HTC Sensation] dgenx210:
Notifications -> Tap on it.

Make a long tap on the download and the top menu will change. Touch the trash can and poof. it's gone.
[HTC Sensation] n7of9:
"- For v5.1.5 Super-Wipe is MANDATORY, not optional!"

what if we are going from 5.1.0 to 5.2.0? sorry for the dumbish question, but i try to avoid superwipe (lol...)
[HTC Sensation] haruryu:
May I ask what the differences are between the 3.12 rosi and the 3.24?

are there visual differences?
[HTC Sensation] thelegendarylegends:
no, no visual difference.
[HTC Sensation] InfinityFTW:
Thank you very much chef, the only rom i'm gonna stay on for quite a while. Good to see some young chefs out there. BTW, i turn 14 tomorrow, dont know why i said all this, but thank you for an awesome ROM! :)
[HTC Sensation] darkmantra:
3.12 Doesn't have much FC also.

Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Looks like you installed a theme that breaks APM which causes reboot on power button. check that it supports APM and if it doesn't, don't use the theme.

Also upgrade your firmware!!!!
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Because that one was a rip off from leedroid, I freely admit it, however I have started again and this is my own ROM so I know my past actions where dishonest but I'm trying to make up for it.

Link will be up in ~5 mins

Bugs I'm aware of;

1. Battery icons are wrong, I will produce an incremental/Full ROM later with the fix, also with some updated apk's and re-zipaligned
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Link to ROM is now up and available to download in first post
[HTC Sensation] n7of9:
well good for you! if everyone else at your age could do that it'd be a bit of a better world (sorry about that, but i'm an old woman and i felt it was required)

i hope Lee forgave you, he seems like a pretty good dude
[HTC Sensation] feuerkette:
Hi ,

I die superwipe and flash the new Firmware but Rom won't boot,hangs on bootscreen with beats logo.
[HTC Sensation] LeeDroid:
Good call Johnny, thanks for being so open & good luck in your future endeavors ;)

Sent from my LeeDrOiD loaded s-off HTC EVO 3D
[HTC Sensation] grabshell:
exactly the same thing happened to me.

how do we fix this?
[HTC Sensation] saltimbanky:
Me too....:confused:
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Can anyone do an adb logcat of the boot sequence?
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
adb logcat file?

Edit: for and logcat in case people don't know, open CMD or Terminal if using linux, change to adb location (cd C:\adb) for me, then type "adb logcat" and connect the phone, then boot up the phone
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
ok, I have absolutly no idea which file(s) caused the issues but i restarted work straight from the RUU and added things one by one then flashed loads of incrementals to test it.

Conclusion: it seems to be working perfectly now, i have just flashed the full ROM update which i will be uploading for you guys sometime tomorrow if i dont find any bugs, Changelog and credits will have to be redone and they will be but im not sure if i will have time tomorrow so any other developers reading this and thinking "that mod/file/whatever was originally mine" hold back until i have updated the OP (just covering myself! :D )

Also if i dont find any major bugs, work on Beats Audio ICS (ICS variation of Beats Audio XE) mod will be started either tomorrow or friday :)
[HTC Sensation] RaiderX303:
Just downloading this now, can i ask what sense `bloatware` has been removed?
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
HTC apps and OTA stuff mainly but also the CID checks and list. I would not recommend flashing this though as users have been experiencing boot issues, wait for the 2.1.0 update later today :)
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
New link uploaded, version 2.1.0 check OP for download, as stated before I will do credits later when I have time ;)
[HTC Sensation] Stephen:
Downloading now :D

EDIT: were you able to resolve the battery % issue in your previous build. I was trying to use the online kitchen to tweak the battery for ICS but it wouldn't accept the files.
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Yes, I already had the % images correct but it was the AndroidManifesr.xml and resources files that where wrong so I replaced those 2 files with the ones from LeeDROiD's framework-res.apk which I new to be working :). I wish the maintainers of UOT Kitchen would hurry up with ICS support though, that is why it won't accept the files...
[HTC Sensation] ziggy1001:
Well they have more than 1 xml file to edit;)
[HTC Sensation] Stephen:
Well gotta say this is an awsome rom! Even managed to get by custom background set. Downlaod a free program from the market called: Wallpaper Wizardrii. Set the wallpaper with out any issues for me.

I also updated my firmware to have ICS HBOT 1.20 and the ICS radio and also updated kernel to the ICS 1.5 clocked kernel. Will try this out for a few days to see what battery life is like!
[HTC Sensation] blessingme:
I just want to thank you Jonny , for this beautifulDarkForest Sensation XE ICS 2.1.0 ROM!

I installed this on my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e,

It rocks!!

Thank you all...
[HTC Sensation] tropical cactus:
new mdsum

Can anyone confirm this is the new mdsum for 2.1.0? 9c4359818d982b249bcedafcf83327d6

In view of the spate of bricked phones recently, I'm not taking any chances.:D
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Yes it is correct, I was taking advantage of my schools extremely fast uplink for uploading yesterday and unfortunately the system wouldn't allow me to run the MD5 Sum program I have. I did get a great speed through, 5MB (MegaBytes) per second :) :)
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
The battery mod obviously breaks APM, causing the reboot with power button.

If you want battery mod, extract my framework-res.apk from the ROM and use UOT Kitchen
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
I think I'm missing a method somewhere in the smali but I'm using the GB files for comparison and it is a lot different so it will take a while
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
You can try without but you won't have large MMS due to the datasaved example (see changelog for the link to the post where the example is)
[HTC Sensation] Astrates:
Fantastic ROM and the implementation of the Aroma install is a thing of beauty. Well done.
[HTC Sensation] Pard0ned:
Just freshly wiped and installed this ROM (I felt like starting over gain).

I chose not to install the us TMO stuff, the orange uk stuff, Normal sensation files, 1.5 Kernel, 3.12.401 rosie, wake by volume, google blue - instead of sense holo, no to recent apps, google blue overscroll, and the all round sound effects.

It installed everything as planned, but it flashed sense holo (green) related files and it kept recent apps. Both of which I know for a fact that i chose no to.

Maybe you could have a look johnny?

Both things I can live with, however. :D
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Damn typos :D will look at it later :)
[HTC Sensation] dkephart:
You refer to "stupid WiFi problems" otherpeople were having...number me among them. I flashed with superwipe, correct firmware, tmous, non-orange, non-xe, 3.12 Rosie, AMD just get "error" with intermittent"trying to.connect" messages...no WiFi, sorry!

Yrs,suggestions?

DavidK
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Try flashing SebastianFM kernel from his thread, seems to fix it for most user's :confused:

I'm not the only chef having this problem, seems baadnewz is too for at least one user :(
[HTC Sensation] akamustang:
Just thought I'd drop by to encourage Jonny to keep posting his CRT tests

/me is getting pretty excited about it
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Next test probably won't be today, I'm using beyond compare for comparison between GB and ICS but there is a lot of crap to read through ;)
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Also try wifix app
[HTC Sensation] akamustang:
QFT, great program, use it daily myself
[HTC Sensation] dgenx210:
There seems to be a visual bug with the battery widget. Not the end of the world but I thought I'd post it XD

Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e
[HTC Sensation] akamustang:
Why not let the author of the app know, they may be able to fix it
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Lol! Should be simple to fix anyway, color values in xml :)
[HTC Sensation] dkephart:
Thanks! This worked. I also re-flashed the ROM...I didn't actually see 4ext do Sebastian's after Aroma finished, but I had selected 1.5 GHz kernel within Aroma anyhow. Did not superwipe, either, since 4ext had already "wiped all ext4"...great looking ROM and thanks again for your advice. And WiFi is fine!

Yrs

DavidK

Oops, meant to reply to helpful advice about WiFi by Jonny!

---------- Post added at 09:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:20 AM ----------

And thanks for this, too, although re-flashing with Sebastian's FM did the job!
[HTC Sensation] dgenx210:
I believe it came from HTC since I remember downloading one from HTC hub back when I had stock GB ROM so yeah XD

Thanks haha

Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Just reflashed with the options that you chose and i have google blue holo and no recent apps so maybe try flashing again, also are you on 4EXT Touch Recovery RC3 because there have been similar problems to this when using CWM
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Oh and one slight bug I noticed is that no recent apps mod breaks EQS and returns it to stock quick settings.

However that is easily fixed by flashing the EQS 3.0.1 mod :)
[HTC Sensation] lal000r:
This seems to be fixed in 5.2.0. Haven't noticed any wifi-drops yet. Thanks Jonny! :)
[HTC Sensation] ndavidetnt:
I chose not to flash no-recent apps but now I don't have any recent apps. Is it a known problem?

And, are EQS gone?
[HTC Sensation] akamustang:
Look at two posts above yours
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Thank God for that, I'd call that a win!!! :D
[HTC Sensation] ndavidetnt:
I read it already but that's exactly the inverse problem: I want recent apps to be shown! but they don't!

thanks anyway for the answer!
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Lol then flash the EQS mod 3.0.1 or reflash the ROM but choose "Allow Recent Apps" first option is easier though, then just tick the recent apps box on leedroid tweaks app
[HTC Sensation] ndavidetnt:
I've already reflashed the rom choosing "allow recent apps" as I did the first time, but nothing: recent apps are not shown!

flashing eqs mod 3.0.1 would solve?
[HTC Sensation] darkmantra:
Would it possible to have a 5row unpaginated for app drawer? :)
[HTC Sensation] lal000r:
F*ck, sorry to disappoint.. wifi drops again in standby :(

Will give wififix another shot...
[HTC Sensation] Stephen:
I think there is an issue there. I chose no recent apps and got recent apps as well. I am using ext4 so that is not the issue. I manually pulled the apk file and pushed it via droid and it worked. There could be an issue with the install script.

I think what Johny is refering to is EQS is broken by using no resent apps mod.

If you want recent apps try going into the rom zip file and extract system\app\systemui.apk then use either droid explorer or adb to push it to system\app and restart the phone
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Also try flashing SebastianFM's kernel, for some reason it seems to fix it for some users
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Hmmm, maybe I made a typo but I don't know coz I flashed recent apps and got recent apps, then I superwiped and chose no recent apps and got no recent apps. Maybe its todo with me setting recent apps by default, or maybe it is the updater-script because a lot of what I included is code bulk to try and make sure it worked but maybe the code bulk is causing the issues :confused:

I will clean the updater-script for the next update :)
[HTC Sensation] lal000r:
I'll play around with settings a bit and then maybe flash another kernel :)
[HTC Sensation] akamustang:
Just flash EQS 3.0.1 manually then use the tweak app to enable or disable recent apps as you wish

Then if desired you can remove the tweak app or see what other features it has
[HTC Sensation] ndavidetnt:
solved that way, thanks!
[HTC Sensation] WayTooRowdy:
Am I the only one who hasn't had a single problem? Haven't superwiped since 5.0.0 and everything is running super awesome for me
[HTC Sensation] lal000r:
Running fine so far with the 1,7 GHz SebastianFM kernel. Thank you for your help!
[HTC Sensation] KeiranFTW:
For people with unexplained WiFi problems, when flashing kernel fixes WiFi, read the post on the sea portal recently posted :)
[HTC Sensation] caloyzter:
Happily using my Sensation Xe with Darkforest 5.2.0 rom no error or whatsoever. Thanks bud. :)
[HTC Sensation] lal000r:
Only relevant if you did NOT unlock bootloader and S-OFF with revolutionary but with htc-dev, right?
[HTC Sensation] dgenx210:
Everything is peachy over her :D
[HTC Sensation] fs61:
??? I've got unexpected reboots??? WTF??? may be a kernel issue? i've installed the 1.5 GhZ Kernel

coming froom ARHD and did a superwipe before flashing this rom
[HTC Sensation] KeiranFTW:
Reinstall then, then if it happens again, logcat please.
[HTC Sensation] -BK-:
I dan confirm everything works like a charm! :p
[HTC Sensation] chihliouma:
Hi there, it seems for me the 5.2.0 has heavily battery drian (10% within less than 20 mins) than other ROM I tried. Except that one, this ROM is good ans fast.
[HTC Sensation] kingston73:
How long have you been using it? It wasn't this one but last week I flashed a rom and the first day it drained withing 8 hours, but I gave it a few days and it now lasts about 14-15 hours with same usage. Maybe if it's brand new give it a couple days use before deciding it's the rom's fault.

Also, I figured out that an app I never use was starting itself and draining the battery without me realizing, might want to check background apps as well.
[HTC Sensation] fs61:
:-) it was booting 5-6 times now its over and very smooth...ok i don't think about that :-)
[HTC Sensation] xps1:
GPS not functioning well? Unable to lock satellites after 10 minutes? Anyone?
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Upgrade firmware
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
I don't use GPS myself much but I will try :)
[HTC Sensation] cjonesfan921:
Is there a way to remove the Wake up by Volume mod?
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Yes, don't choose it on Aroma Install ;)
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Fixed it, Will rebuild the ROM hopefully tonight or tomorrow with the new files to fix all these minor bugs
[HTC Sensation] SveninFla:
Made the change yesterday. Being a noobie it took some time. Didn'tpanic when I messed up, just kept looking until a solution was found. Bottom line, up and running. No glitches so far. Wanted to thank you.

LJ
[HTC Sensation] -BK-:
Wondering what fix, because no probs at all using GPS over here...
[HTC Sensation] vernon092487:
great support by Jonny!i have not yet encountered any issue from this rom starting version 5.1.0..

keep up the good work!
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
I had it as well, couldn't get a fix on maps or location then I changed 2 libs and a config file and I got a fix within 10 seconds :)
[HTC Sensation] -BK-:
Maybe because I am using AGPS Injector... :)
[HTC Sensation] soulsponjah:
Kick ass ROM. Went from 5.0 to 5.2 only wiping cache + dalvik and everything installed fine. The only thing I noticed was no 4G icon for TMOUS but that's not a problem. Gotta love the volume wake!
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Need to fix that in next updata. The EQS updates are coming out faster than I can mod them and the one week waiting period has now been removed from his sharing policy :)
[HTC Sensation] ashonka:
I have had an HD2 and now a Sensation. I have always used senseless ROMs because they seem faster. This ROM is the first time I have ever used Sense without significant lag. I love it. I am someone who gets bored easily and flashes a new rom every few days. In this case, I have been using this one (I have flashed the updates as they come) exclusively for the last couple weeks. Love it. Also, really impressed with the way Jonny responds to all the questions from users. Nice work.
[HTC Sensation] vernon092487:
Hi Jonny,

I reflashed this rom yesterday and choose no recent apps mod but it was still installed. Is there a way to remove this without reflashing again?

Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] teknomar7:
Noticed the OTA update app. How does that work? Might have to check that out on the next update.
