I have S-On and don't need anything else besides smart flash. It's been working 100% for me.

General tips? Well, just configure it the way you want it, looking nice and practical, give the rom a fair use before changing (battery life for example gets better after a couple cycles and it's a very pleasing sense experience.

For performance tips I use the scheduler SIO, cpu min 364 and max 1.6. Min free values either balance or aggressive with kernel tuner.

Add your email accounts, widgets and it's a awesome full experience :)

But most of all, enjoy it :)

Any issue or anything we're here to help.
[HTC Sensation] DroidBois:
awesome...

Just did this to push boot.img and now have wi-fi

All seems fine and struggling to think why I'd need S-ON
[HTC Sensation] MidnightDevil:
I struggled a bit as well then I've read the topic of how to flash with S-On. All cool since. About your card, it depends if you have any ext3/4 partition or swap, usually creating a identical partition layout any copying the contents over does the job. Worse it can happen is the need to re flash :)
[HTC Sensation] DroidBois:
thanks... I did not set up any partitions so there shouldn't be any there unless the installer set them up. I will take a nandroid backup before putting in a new SD card though. I don't know why I would need any partitions or any system stuff to be stored on the card anyway.

So with this smartflash and adb boot image push thing - I really don't need S-Off do I?
[HTC Sensation] DroidBois:
My SD card now keeps 'mounting unexpectedly'. I have one trashed card too after unsuccessfully trying that S-OFF wire trick like five times. I hope my SD card slot isn't trashed. Hopefully it's just loose or something.

Another thing - the phone is a bit laggy but RAM is generally around 100 - 120MB free. Any suggestions?
[HTC Sensation] ash123456678:
For the sdcard, this happened to me when i purchased a fake sdcard and the only way i could fix it is by buying a new sd :( I also found that the sd wouldn't store anything and would keep corrupting. Do you experience this?

For the ram, you could try this. Also, try closing any apps you aren't using and you could go into developer settings and set background processes to at most 1 or something like that and you can change the OOM settings :)
[HTC Sensation] DroidBois:
I always use name brand like Sandisk or Kingston cards, and the card was fine before I tried this S-OFF wire trick thing.. It's working ok now - I found an old class 4 16GB card - but sometimes it 'unmounts unexpectedly'. Been ok for a few hours now though. I took the battery out and pressed down on the holder to bend it in slightly in case it was a loose fit.

Failing that I'll try a new name brand 32GB Class 10 card (now only $50).

As a side note I do use SD card encryption too, if that makes any difference. I also had a crappy (loose fit) SD card a little while ago that I tried using for file transfers. But even a few days ago with a different cable it was unmounting during file transfers and needed a whole reboot to get the card back.

As for RAM etc - is that really true that there is over 100MB of unused really fast internal flash memory?? Sounds too good to be true... Is the mod hard to install?

-- Update --

Card umounted again after a few hours, was stationary on the desk. Had to pull back cover off and click out and back in again.. Not sure if / how it's related to any of the modding I've been doing.
[HTC Sensation] D F:
Anything new Jonny?

Did u manage to find a job?
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Nothing new yet, I've been busy with south pacific (we just today took everything down and all the hire stuff got collected). I have a music concert tomorrow but after that I will be able to work on an update - hopefully squashing the battery life issues some people are having in the process :)

And no, I haven't been able to find a new job yet but for now until the summer it's better because exams start early this year (13th May is my first one :eek: ).
[HTC Sensation] ash123456678:
Ohhh can't help you with sd then :P

The RAM mod is very good and it does give you a noticeable boost. Yeah there's about 100mb that is unused so use it for ram :P The mod is very easy to install; simply download the zip, then flash it :P
[HTC Sensation] DroidBois:
yeah I've downloaded it but my card needs to be unencrypted so I'll use an old card just for flashing tonight... let you know how I go.

Sure enough I went in to the 4EXT app and sure enough, there's 100MB of free /cache?? WTF HTC??
[HTC Sensation] ash123456678:
Good luck :) HTC doesn't know how to optimize phones :P
[HTC Sensation] fireplayer:
So any news for the Battery fix yet Jonny? I'd say it's better going from 7.2 as quite a few of us seems to be having some kind of issue w 7.3.0?
[HTC Sensation] magico1978:
Can i flash it with 3.32 ?
[HTC Sensation] behnamsarhandi:
no !

plz read OP
[HTC Sensation] magico1978:
I did it thats why i asked, most 3.33 roms are compatible with 3.32
[HTC Sensation] V1k70r:
Yes, you can.
[HTC Sensation] magico1978:
Is this better than android revolution 7.2 ?

Beside its look is it better ?
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
I don't know... It is better for some people but not for others, same as all other ROM's - the best way to find out if it's better in your own opinion is to try it and decide for yourself :)
[HTC Sensation] magico1978:
Ill try it. Just asking
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
And I was just giving you a truly honest answer ;)
[HTC Sensation] Langz:
Jonny do you have a working mirror on 7.2.0? This versions works best for me but I accidently lost my copy of it.

Thanks in advance

I have been using HD for a week or so. Darkforest runs smoother.

[HTC Sensation] D F:
So, any news Jonny? :)
[HTC Sensation] Langz:
Thank you sir!
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Concentrating on DarkSense for now, but in a few weeks everything's going to have to take a back seat again because of exams in May-June. I'm already doing between 5-8 hours revision per day for them :)
[HTC Sensation] D F:
So there will be no more development with Darkforest for at least a few weeks...

Well, good luck with your exams Jonny!
[HTC Sensation] nick00356:
My WiFi doesn't work.:eek:

Any solution?
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Nice bug report...

If you are S-ON then you need 4EXT Recovery Touch and to enable 4EXT SmartFlash. If you are S-OFF then I can't help you with the limited information you have given me.
[HTC Sensation] nick00356:
It was flashed with 4ext touch and I set all custom settings as default.

Actually I came from CM10.1, it doesn't happen at that time.

#update

I download the Rom again and flash. WiFi works now :)

Maybe I flashed an incomplete Rom before.

Anyway everything goes right and smoothly now, thx.
[HTC Sensation] Hellmanor:
The only thing that isn't working for me is switching song with volume rockers when screen is locked.

Just tested this on both DarkForest rom and on ARHD with DarkForest tweaks, it works (without a quick reboot). Try long pressing them :)

I downloaded the new firmware off the ftp and went to flash it and it says model ID incorrect.
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
fastboot getvar mid

Then add your mid to android_info.txt
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Aha I think this must be the answer because all I test it with is the 1.2 kernel because I have a sensation XE so I get 1.5 anyway. Can anyone confirm this please?
[HTC Sensation] Dunc001:
Would someone be able to explain to me exactly what the Orange UK Signal Boost is - I looked in the zip and see there is an apk, some replacement lib files (are these actually different?) and an apk. What I am wondering is if the files could be used to improve Orange signal on our HD2 ROM?
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Thanks. I am a big believer of open-source and sharing and I don't like lying to users who put their trust on a ROM, so if I don't know something I tell users I don't know otherwise there is no trust :)

Oh and battery takes a couple of cycles to stabilize out then it should be fine
[HTC Sensation] budeone:
Is there a tut for that somewhere?

Then open cmd and cd to where you have fastboot/adb files.

thanks, but i haven't messed with the kernel at all...i have a standard Sensation so i assume i have 1.2? i also thought Jonny's flash question of "do you have a Sensation XE" was for this very reason - and i chose 'no'
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
I think it may just be the files I'm using, anyway there will be an update based on the new 3.25.401.101 RUU and it fixes many bugs and hopefully this one too. I am testing a beta version of the update now and aside from a few things I forgot to delete/add there are no WiFi issues so far :) . Apologies for the inconvenience :/

Hmm Screen at 47% translates to how many hours of screen-on time?! I don't think it's 10 hours according to the total uptime :P

Anyhow, 21 hours with stock battery seems normal. With my setup I get around 20-24 hours uptime with about 2-3 hours of screen on time.

Screen is not on even 1 hour ,thats the problem, battery draining happens during she deep sleep as you can see ,the phone is in that state 16 hours...

I will try another kernel just tu see what will happen.

[HTC Sensation] Greight:
Is there a MOD that can improve L2SD functionality on this ROM?
[HTC Sensation] mclaren2:
Got a problem with 7.2.0.

I use it with the default HTC kernel still the phone crashes after 10 mins on a phone call.

This also happens with faux kernel.

I can't use 7.3.0 because it makes my phone dead slow.

All newer sense 4 based roms are even slower.

Will there be a fix or is there a workarround? (Latest faux kernel maybe?)

Or is there another Rom offering same performance with sense?

Or do I really have to buy a new phone?
[HTC Sensation] derricancy:
Did you check the md5 of the ROM you download?

Did you do a full wipe installation?

Did you undervoltage?
[HTC Sensation] mclaren2:
please, i am not that stupid. if some might check my latest postings, it would have emerged that the problem prevails, no matter what i do. i downloaded, installed, wiped several times. and i dont know if the default kernel coming with 7.2 is undervolted or not. fact remains, after 10 mins of phone call the phone reboots.

this used to happen with the faux kernel, where i got expalined that this is kernel related and wont happen with the default one.

i am totally fascinated that this obviously only happens to me. so either i am the only person doing longer phone calls these days or ..... ?

i know i sound annoying but the thing is the other roms arent any better. either damn slow (sense 4) or plain ugly (senseless roms).

this rom would be perfect if it just did not have this annoying bug.... :confused:

Just flashed the ROM and it all seems to be going great! Thanks [MENTION=4184142]Jonny[/MENTION]!

One thing though, the beats notification doesn't show up when I play music. Is there anyway to fix that or do I need to flash a separate beats mod?

Thanks
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Did you select beats audio in sound enhancer? Basic question I know but you'd be surprised sometimes... ;)

ah :p I can't remember. I flashed it twice and not sure if I did it the second time, probably not!

Will flash it again!

Hello Jonny!

I sold my Sensation the day before and now I'm waiting for HTC ONE. Are you going to do some HTC ONE development, too? I would really miss your ROM if you didn't.
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Maybe... my contract ends in October, I'll have to see what happens then. I still need to find a part time job (been looking/applying for over 4 months now) so if I don't have a job by probably September I won't have enough spare cash to afford a new phone.

Whatever happens I don't think I'll sell my Sensation, that can be my backup phone :)

After testing lots of Sense 4 roms I have to come back to this nice and smooth rom. Sorry Jonny but the last time I checked version 7.3 it was so laggy compared to 7.2. I've lost my last laptop so don't have any of my old files. Can you please give me a link to 7.2?

You're in luck, I didn't have a local copy of 7.2.0 so I went scrounging through all the mirror sites I use and found this ;)
[HTC Sensation] Greight:
Thanks a million Jonny! BTW, I found on one of your servers DarkSensation JB, is there a project going on down there?
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Aye but its at a standstill atm - it started off as DarkSensation then became OpenSense ROM because DarkSense team can't fix remaining bugs by ourselves so we made open what we'd done so far. Right now waiting for the kernel devs to work their magic... unfortunately I can't do anything more on it as I have close to no C++ knowledge (never needed to use it before and its a pain in the ass to learn) :p

After each restart, L2SD gives mount warning error and another restart is needed to fix the problem. In fact for a working L2SD, two restarts are necessary. Any idea?

but you can install live wallpaper and it will move.. like GyroSp///, Rose 3D
[HTC Sensation] @@RON:
please delete ... I was in wrong thread :angel:
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
About L2SD I have no idea, I don't use it, whenever I wanted to move something to sd card I went into Settings > Apps > touch the app > move. Though this only works if the app developer has added the ability to move it, a surprising amount haven't which is really a huge oversight as its the addition of 1 line in the Android manifest file for the app.

Boot and down animations are attached, they need to go in the system/customize/resource folder.

Bootloops

I had bootloops with the new version, then i installed the old firmware back with the old version and i had bootloops with that too, kinda confused ???? I then installec RC Mix's ICS Rom which worked no problem.

It's probably a noob problem but i really like the rom and i would like to sort this so i can use it.

EDIT:

First thing I see is that when I push menu-button: I get a white box without choices (see screenshot). When I touch the white menubox, menuchoices are visible, but only where I touch (so not all menu items).

Problem is related to "REMOVE ROSIE NAV-BAR.zip", addon from ELEGANCIA™ Rom Series, which I installed.

Also installed "WakeUP by VolKey sense 3.5 ICS.zip" and confirming this one is working on Sense 3.6.

Yes, I am working on including it in next update. For now flash beats audio mod v4.5 by mudhi
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Sorry but from my point of view that's not my problem at the moment. I didn't say it was compatible. If you want to get it working then try opening the mod zip file and manually pushing in each file till you get the problem, then just delete that file from zip
[HTC Sensation] budeone:
I am downloading now.. I just want to make sure I do not have to mess with this firmware again.. I never want to mess with that again.

There is one in my FTP with unlocked bootloader from revolutionary (IEF) which gives you newest radio, hboot and does not overwrite splash screen image or recovery so its quite safe to flash it :)
[HTC Sensation] budeone:
Ok, but do I have to do anything more than wipe and install?
[HTC Sensation] -BK-:
Off course it's not your problem!

Just wanted to mention it for others... :p

5.0.0 just rocks! :D
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
For firmware just put the file in root of SDCARD then boot into hboot.

For ROM just wipe and install.

P.s I highly recommend using the Rosie mod from 3.12.401 base included as an option on this ROM as it stops HTC sense force closing
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
To give user's some idea of stability, I have been running this ROM now for 3 days. With the Rosie mod I get No crashes, no force closes no random reboots, no WiFi issues, 100% stable :)
