[HTC Sensation] akapaul26:
In the past couple days I have seen page after page of misc problems that I just have not seen with this ROM. Also most reporting problems are not even telling us what build number they are using. Anyway, just a few things I have noticed and wanted to mention.

1. When you are first setting up your device DO A CLEAN WIPE. Even if the OP says it's ok to just flash over it is just good practice to clean wipe. I mean come on people everyone should have a nandroid backup or titanium.

2. After install let your phone boot up I usually wait 10 minutes after it boots for the first time before I even touch the lock ring. I personally think this is a good idea cause stuff is still loading and settling, I am convinced this will reduce a lot of issues especially anyone who has had SU issues. Also I think this will hepl anyone who has had to go in and fix permissions.

3. Next step set up your phone, rather go through setup menus. Now go through setup when you are done going through setup go into market and accept terms so your phone can install your apps. Leave the phone alone during this process. When apps are all loaded and there is nothing syncing reboot into recovery.

4. Every time I reboot into recovery I clear cache and clear dalvik. Especially after that first reboot. This is also the time to restore your data from nandroid if you choose to do so. If you are go ahead and install your kernel or addons ONE AT A TIME. Clear cache, clear dalvik install zip clear cache, clear dalvik reboot. Do this for each addon. If you are not installing a kernel or any add ons you can just restart your device.

5. Doing it this way is better also because you can reboot the device several times. Rebooting several times also allows stuff to install in its proper place. I do several reboots just because.

Now I know all this sounds like it would take forever and it does take a little longer and I am sure you are all excited to check out your brand new rom and start playing but practicing this and doing things slower in my opinion will help reduce headaches and the rom will run much smoother and more so how it was intended.

Some of the problems I have seen reported in the last few days are:

1. No root: I am pretty convinced this is due to not giving the rom enough time to settle after initial install or trying to do a nandroid backup before first reboot. Personally I have never had the problem with any of the roms in this series. I am sure it can be easily fixed by uninstalling the SU app and reinstalling.

2. Games with no sound: Again I do not have the problem in my device not sure how to fix the problem besides take your time installing like I mentioned above, (eliminates a lot of potential problems).

3. Not being able to put apps on the home screen or not being able to put them in the correct spot: Again I don't have that problem and haven't noticed it in this series of builds. Sounds like you should reinstall and slow down.

4. Music FC: I don't see the problem unless you are using an older build where it was happening. My music plays fine with no FC.

Anyway I just wanted to give my advice and my thoughts. If it helps anyone, great if not sorry for wasting your time. Like I said I am convinced that letting your phone settle and taking your time setting things up WILL help reduce problems with your installs.

I am using salvation 1.0.2 with the sebastian 1.728 kernel and running super. My first battery cycle was a little over 26 hours on a full charge.
