Please do fix the VPN problem. BTW I have somewhat de-sensed the rom using L2SD, changed the launcher to go launcher and I should say now it's even more fantastic!
[HTC Sensation] HJADR:
I Just installed the ROM all on basic settings and wifi seems to be stuck at enabeling.

Any clue how to fix?
[HTC Sensation] Greight:
This was the problem I had on all the other roms except this one. The reason was incompatibility of my service provider with wifi or something like this!:confused:
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Try manually flashing a kernel :)
[HTC Sensation] HJADR:
I just flashed bricked, didn't work. After that I reflashed ROM and stock kernel that was included, now everything works fine.

But I wondered. Is there any way to get a shortcut directly to the alarm settings? My note 2 has a beautifull widget. Bu the only solution I can find for this one is a paid application,
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Are you S-ON by any chance?

And I'm not sure if this works on Sense 3.6 (havent used it as a daily for a while now) but in Sense 4 and above, pressing the clock widget opens up the clock and along the bottom there is a tab for alarm, is this also present on Sense 3.6?
[HTC Sensation] HJADR:
I tried to get s-off , and think I succeded. With my old desire I knew how to check. But not sure about the sensation.

Sense 3.6 if you press the clock widget you open up the world clock and then have to press the tab for alarms. My girlfriend fiends that to much work and is annoyed by it. -_-'
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
You can check by booting into hboot and it should say either S-ON or S-OFF. It sounds like you have S-ON because the most common cause of WiFi issues is kernel and module mismatch. When you flash a ROM, the modules are replaced but if you S-ON the kernel is not replaced so you get mismatches in the versions of the modules and one of the effects is WiFi not working. Try flashing 4EXT recovery and enabling SmartFlash :)
[HTC Sensation] HJADR:
Just checked, its in S-OFF and i've got 4EXT installed.

I have not had any troubles since reïnstalling. Still strange though.
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
For v7.3.0 I've also fixed a small issue that happens with 3rd party music players with EQ - upping the bass frequencies caused distortion but not anymore except on poweramp which refuses to be fixed, though I use JetAudio and its certainly fixed the issue on that :)
[HTC Sensation] D F:
Jonny, there is a background live image which moves according the bitrate of the songs played by the music player. This wallpaper no longer works on 7.2.0. I don't know if it worked in the previous 7 versions, but it definitely worked on 6.
[HTC Sensation] wildcardspv:
Sounds like 7.3.0 is shaping up to be pretty damn cool, thanks Jonny - don't go neglecting your studies though......;)
[HTC Sensation] D F:
Nothing new here hm?

Jonny, pleaste take into cosideration mai previous post. And also, is an ETA for 7.3.0 is available?

Will 7.3.0 be created with sense 4.0?

This is what jonny has said about the timescale, as far as I know it'll be sense 3.6 too

Re: [ROM]DarkForest Sensation/XE 7.2.0|Tweaks|Sense3.6|Speed|Beats|SuperStable[07 Nov

7.3.0 will be Sense 3.6 - DarkSense is the Sense 4.1 ROM from me and mikrosmile.

Can't give any other ETA apart from I'll restart work on 21st or 22nd but won't get much done until the weekend as I won't be getting home from school until about 18:30-19:00 each night due to South Pacific rehearsals which me and the rest of the tech guys have just started attending :)
[HTC Sensation] fireplayer:
Re: [ROM]DarkForest Sensation/XE 7.2.0|Tweaks|Sense3.6|Speed|Beats|SuperStable[07 Nov

So then back here ;) more stable, more familiar, better apps drawer, better sense clock - god i missed that flip ;) and those tweaks...damn. ;) - but was there any way to stop rosie from going all around? Like there was on DarkSense? Or is that an umimplementable sense 4 only feature? ;) we always want the best of both worlds, dont we? ;)
[HTC Sensation] D F:
Still nothing?
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Tsk tsk... so impatient :silly: :D

Literally finished my last exam today (Decision Maths) so I'll restart work again when I get home :)
[HTC Sensation] Greight:
Good news man. Can you provide a separate patch for fixing VPN problem?
[HTC Sensation] D F:
Damn Jonny, u r right. I am impatient. Please excuse me, but I am like...longing for a change :)
[HTC Sensation] fireplayer:
What problem is that?

And Jonny - anything moving? - yes we are a wee bit impatient ;)
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
It will come soon (no ETA though but its no. 1 on my priority list). Basically I have to wait for weekends to work as I am getting back from school at 18:30 or later and by the time I've had tea, done homework, reviewed all my lesson notes etc its heading on to 11pm so I go to sleep.

iirc there isnt a lot more for me to do, tweaks are done which was the main thing, I think its now just sorting out the framework things - I made a full expected changelog before my exams so I'll cross reference what I've done with what I've still got to do tomorrow :)
[HTC Sensation] wildcardspv:
Many thanks Jonny, we all get a bit impatient at times, especially at the prospect of something new to play with, but don't let anyone rush you man, I totally appreciate that you're really busy and we can wait as long as it takes - look after yourself :good: :D
[HTC Sensation] fireplayer:
Yeah school does sorta eat your time, dont it ;O)

but is stopping the sense carousel possible in 3.6? or is that patch only sense 4+?
[HTC Sensation] zedrix53:
i just install it and i like the rom but i notice that when i flash faux aroma kernel from yank with hardswap and check the hardswap from emulator it doesnt read anything

and init.d have alot of script does this came from the rom?
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Re: [ROM]DarkForest Sensation/XE 7.2.0|Tweaks|Sense3.6|Speed|Beats|SuperStable[07 Nov

I have fixed the hardswap issue in v7.3.0 and yes all the init.d scripts are from the ROM.
[HTC Sensation] zedrix53:
thanks ill just wait the 7.3.0 then
[HTC Sensation] D F:
Jonny, please add an option for us to be able to remove as many apps as possible.

Any news?
[HTC Sensation] fireplayer:
Re: [ROM]DarkForest Sensation/XE 7.2.0|Tweaks|Sense3.6|Speed|Beats|SuperStable[07 Nov

Jonny? Finding any time to get work done on this? And if possible - please add option to stop rosie carousel ;)
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Done that - though some may not work because the apps aren't in Sense 3.6 (the script is from darksense)
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Been looking for that but only for about half an hour total - can't find it in Rosie.apk - maybe its hiding :D
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Ok here is what I have done so far, I know there's some stuff in the last few pages I need to check out (there was a framework edit and a few other things I think). Let me know if I've missed anything :)

Re: [ROM]DarkForest Sensation/XE 7.2.0|Tweaks|Sense3.6|Speed|Beats|SuperStable[07 Nov

Looking pretty good to me man. Is there any possibility of being able to use the volume keys to take pics in the camera, like on sense 4.x ROMs?

Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e
[HTC Sensation] D F:
I see. And this can not be fixed?
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Possibly, though that is something to look into for future, the only thing I know about that mod is its inside camera.apk though I think the person who originally did the mod on one x posted the smali files he changed...
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Yes but given current time constrictions and the amount of possibilities to be tested its not viable for me to test every single option :) much easier to release it then remove options from the script if/when people report it

Re: [ROM]DarkForest Sensation/XE 7.2.0|Tweaks|Sense3.6|Speed|Beats|SuperStable[07 Nov

Just a suggestion why dont you do like V6 : do a group of beta testers

[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Because I honestly can't make the OTA thing work on Sense 3.6 ROM - only works on Sense 4.1 ROM because with permission from m0narx, V6-Maniac and darksense team use old version of viper files but they don't work on Sense 3.6, i've been trying for months to get this working, I was thinking of putting the needed stuff in the ROM and just experimenting a bit - I've made several edits to the scripts we use server side in DarkSense which may help. This is a weekend job though... :)
[HTC Sensation] fireplayer:
Re: [ROM]DarkForest Sensation/XE 7.2.0|Tweaks|Sense3.6|Speed|Beats|SuperStable[07 Nov

But what about the fact that it world in DarkSense? Can the trick not be stolen from Sense 4? Is Rosie really that different?
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
I'll do a diff at the weekend, I hope I can find it as I've kinda got used to the panels not rotating past 1 or 7 :)

1. Long press back to kill app

2. Hide IME switcher icon as dscribed here >>> http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=35943100&postcount=2798

3. Update all 3rd party apps to latest

[HTC Sensation] akpe:
Jonny, out of curiosity, what are the new LMK values?

Wanna give them a try on my roms while waiting for 7.3.0 :D
[HTC Sensation] Esnyper:
I think, I am going to try this ROM... How about battery consumption in this ROM?
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Still haven't found it, too much is different from Sense 3.6 to Sense 4 so I'm going to need to spend some time sorting through it all, I'll keep looking though...

Added to this the long press back to kill app isn't working either, with it in the ROM, it refuses to go past bootanimation so that'll have to wait for a future update as well.
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Same ones I use for DarkSense ;)
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
I can't answer that for you as every phone's battery life is different depending on usage, kernel and kernel setup etc etc. Most of the time if you have bad battery life its because either you have wakelocks or the kernel isn't setup for how you use the phone.
[HTC Sensation] fireplayer:
Too bad about the issues for now - but then an RC of 7.3.0 should be done... or?
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Re: [ROM]DarkForest Sensation/XE 7.2.0|Tweaks|Sense3.6|Speed|Beats|SuperStable[07 Nov

Yep, uploading it as soon as I get in from work :)
[HTC Sensation] Langz:
Jonny, I'm not gonna make myself popular with this but in my opinion there 's no need for an update ;P

This rom is so fluid and stable, I've completely settled down with it.

Thanks for your work (and your active support all over the board).
[HTC Sensation] fireplayer:
Yey! so this night even then? or when is it gonna be up you reckon?

I think i see a some problem with tasks widget here... don't sync with google acc
[HTC Sensation] Il_Simo:
which are the steps to do to use google now with this rom?

thanks
[HTC Sensation] akpe:
IICR you select it in aroma and then you just open the Google app (blue icon) on your app drawer. Forgive me if I'm wrong, I haven't had the chance to flash DF yet.
[HTC Sensation] akpe:
Flashed and restoring apps now, everything seems ok apart from a minor cosmetic glitch.

The "waiting" prompt seems more greyed out than usual (pic-sorry for the quality, blame my HTC Explorer) but really, who cares :D

Well, akpe does, I'm gonna try to find out what could be causing this.

Judging from previous tests with other roms this used to happen when flashing the percent battery mod in a rom (specifically ARHD) where DF Tweaks were also flashed. I'll flash again with stock battery and let you know.

Edit: nope, battery percentage mod wasn't the cause.

Edit: not the jelly bean animations

Thanks Jonny!

Mistake in one of the png's in framework - which holo theme did you choose in aroma? Google Blue or HTC Green?
[HTC Sensation] akpe:
Wow that's what I call support ;)

I chose HTC Green.

Is there a .png/file you could send me to push somewhere/replace in .zip so I can fix it? :)

BTW first rom I've tried in a long time (including previous DF versions) where no matter how much I've loaded it up, Real Racing 2 works flawlessly with no lags -and- without shutting down everything in the background. :good:
[HTC Sensation] zedrix53:
thank you jonny for the rom im testing it now

keep up the good work
[HTC Sensation] goatee84:
Good work Jonny, nice to see an update :)

Something I don't remember seeing before (could be my memory though), if I open the camera with auto-brightness set, when i close the camera the brightness stays at maximum and I have to re-enable auto-brightness. This is intermittent, occasionally the brightness does go back to auto by itself.

Also text-to-speech, seems that there's no TTS engine installed and having a great deal of trouble getting any third party engine to work. I have installed a number of engines and the closest I can get to making one work is SVOX; it actually installs OK but when I try to go into Settings > Language and Keyboard > Text-to-Speech, settings FCs every time.
[HTC Sensation] mclaren2:
using 7.3.0 with default 3.33 kernel. but that way this rom is very slow. completely unresponsive at times. it wasnt that way with 7.2.0 and reinstalling didnt help. i did a full wipe of course.
[HTC Sensation] smhouston:
I had the same as the above poster, but once I'd re-installed with superwipe it was fine
[HTC Sensation] mclaren2:
i thought selecting super-wipe in the aroma installer was not needed as i already wiped everything (dalvik, data, etc.) in 4ext recovery....

but i will give it another try as there seems to be no sense 4 rom out supporting a full functionating search in sms

btw: problem remains, this rom is still despite superwipe, incredibly slow. may i ask you which kernel did u use?

[HTC Sensation] smhouston:
I'm actually starting to find the same now. Past couple of days it's started to go very slow. Just trying to in to settings takes several seconds (5 roughly)

I've not changed my kernel so everything is stock apart from what Jonny does (and rooting)

Currently showing as:

Kernel: 3.0.16-g31a4fc7 htc-kernel@u18000-build-144 #1 SMP PREEMPT

Baseband: 11.76A.3504.00P_11.24A.3504.31_M

Build: 3.33.401.154 CL391535 release-keys
[HTC Sensation] mclaren2:
i had no luck with stock kernel. and the other ones will have the reboot-bug if you have a longer phone convo. (it doesnt matter if you dont undervolt or undervolt, thats not the issue i thought it was first). i gave a hint about the problem in the faux kernel thread and it just got deleted.

honestly im fed up with reporting bugs if nothing is done and fixed. so thats why i am back to 7.2.0 with stock kernel (glad i found it somewhere via google) and everything is just a dream. its perfect for me and i wont waste more time with failed updates.
[HTC Sensation] goatee84:
I have to agree with previous posters, 7.3.0 isn't really kicking goals. A positive is the fantastic battery life I've had, but the ROM is hard to use. Very laggy, eg. auto-rotation is almost unresponsive at times, status bar is very slow, screen on can take ages and so on. I've tried multiple kernels, with increasingly performance orientated settings but no joy. Also have had the occasional reboot but it's really just how laggy the phone is in general use that is frustrating.

So yeah I'm thinking I'll head back to 7.2.0 for the time being.

Where are the people who were crying for an ETA every day until release? Are you using this ROM and are you having similar issues?
[HTC Sensation] akpe:
I did experience lag, however I thought it was due to the many apps I restored (with their data). Unfortunately my time is limited and I had to go back to my previous nandroid until I have the time to set up from scratch.

Have you guys tried this mod? It works on other sense 3.6 roms, huge improvement for me (even with my device loaded up) and it's already on my to-flash list when I get the time to experiment with DF :)
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Just to let you guys know, I am reading the comments even if I don't reply... I'm in a bit of a difficult situation right now as the restaurant I work for is closing on 3rd March so as of then I will have no job so most of my free time now is going towards looking for a new job...

Thankfully next week is half term so I will be able to sit down and respond to all comments sometime over that week :)
[HTC Sensation] goatee84:
Thanks Jonny, of course your job takes priority, good luck with the search :good:

I flashed the 98swap_cache mod this afternoon, didn't make a noticeable difference but when I did df /cache in terminal it came back with "segmentation fault" so I'm not sure if that's an issue with the mod or ROM related.
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
It's official :( :(
[HTC Sensation] ash123456678:

[HTC Sensation] Jonny:

[HTC Sensation] Dandle:
Still loving this rom. Have a couple of issues you guys might be able to help me with, Battery drain is quite high compared to the last version for me. Any ideas?

The other issue I have is that while making a call the screen doesn't blank when holding it to your ear so if the call is fairly long I find that the phone is in tweaks and various settings are changed from the phone moving against my ear. Any way to turn on the screen disable while held to your ear?
[HTC Sensation] sy224048:
I know where you live.

I really hope that didn't sound too creepy.

Really sorry though man, even though I barely read it I'm sure it sucks. Just remember, it'll only get worse as you get older and you need to be ready to face that sh*t.
[HTC Sensation] fireplayer:

Is there a setting for ear rubbing during calls?

As for battery I'm using pydx kernel and battery is good but was slowass so used setcpu to fix oc. Now smooth apart from wake-up which can still take forever.

[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Ear rubbing, don't think there is a setting for it. Maybe try recalibrating your proximity sensor?

For battery life, download better battery stats and see if there are any wakelocks
[HTC Sensation] Dandle:
How do you calibrate the proximity sensor?
[HTC Sensation] Dandle:
Right managed to fix my proximity sensor not working. If you type *#*#3424#*#* into your phone it goes into the HTC text menu where you can test the prox sensor, it should dim the screen when you cover the top r/h of the screen. Mine didnt.

I took a peice of paper and ran the edge of it around the edge of the screen between the screen itself and the phone body(not the backshell) around where the prox sensor is located. You have to do it very gently so you dont tear the paper but it will clean the gap between screen and the body you can feel when it hits the sensor. After that the prox sensor started working straight away, it must be a build up of dust and muck that causes it to stay stuck in one state.
[HTC Sensation] DroidBois:
I'm about to try installing this without S-OFF.. I've unlocked with HTC Dev and rooted with K96 utility so wish me luck.. my first attempt with some other non-sense ROM just killed the phone - it was stuck on some glowing X all night. CAN I install this or any other ROM without S-OFF?
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Yes, however you must be on 4EXT Recovery Touch and have 4EXT SmartFlash enabled :)
[HTC Sensation] DroidBois:
how do I enable smartflash?

Yep have 4EXT recovery, successfully flashed the ROM. All seems fine despite not having S-OFF, except for wifi which keeps throwing up an 'error' when I try to turn it on.

So is there any reason I would need S-OFF now?

Any hints / tips / warnings while I get started? Can I put in a new SD card or does the ROM use the card somehow and could break something if I put in a different card? Thinking 32GB class 10.
[HTC Sensation] D F:
DroidBois, u may use any memory card. I use a 32 Gigs Class 10 MicroSD and everything works just fine. Have been using it for more than 6 months now.
