OK, so I had been having lagging problems running Bricked v1.4 since Sense 4 v2.6.0. When I pressed the Phone icon, it would take about 4-5 seconds before the dial-pad loaded up! In fact, anything important (SMS, email, etc.) took about 4-5 seconds to load. This was bugging me a lot but I thought I could live with it. I was hopeful v2.7.0 would fix things, but it did not. And yes, I performed a completely fresh install (superwiped and SD card formatted) both times.

I finally decided to bite the bullet and stray from Steve's standard installation and loaded up Faux's 008b13 kernel and now my phone is super smooth with no lag at all! I can see an instant improvement in responsiveness. I kept reading that people had no problems with Bricked v1.4 but I guess all phones are different and you never know until you try. :o

The next thing is to test battery life with Faux. Using Bricked v1.4 I could push about 26-28 hours with WiFi and 3G turned on and with moderate phone and sms use. Let's see what I can squeeze out of this new kernel.

Anyone have any comparisons they can offer up?

I use a De-Sensed Elegancia rom too with Nova launcher. After trying other launchers, I bought Nova. This isn't the most complete, but it's one that suits me best.

Aroma is an excellent installer. You can install the rom "aux petits oignons" ("very nicely" or "very cleanly" in english?) :D. There are many options and I don't see what might be missing.

The battery is really problematic but I'm not sure there is really a solution. We all have different uses of our smartphones. What may work for one will not necessarily work for others. But ideas are welcome! :D

Finally, tweaks. Leedroid tweaks aren't bad but it's a minimum. The PKMN tweaks (addon for Sense 4) are too old to be effective : unable to install statusbar themes for example.

After trying Vipers rom, I can tell you that Venom tweaks are fabulous (even if they are from PKMN tweaks, at least they work). You can customize the rom as you like.

It would, for me, the perfect complement to this rom.

Finally, even if I try other roms, I always come back to Elegancia! :D
[HTC Sensation] winomat:
First of all im watching this thread since a while and im running Elegancia rom also since a while. The best ROM so far. I have to say thanks a lot to the whole Team. Im impressed by the work you´ve done and i hope it wont end that soon. And as soon as my money arrives at Paypal ill donate. Not much but it wont be the last time i gonna donate. :cool:

I was on Sense 3.6 when i wanted to check out alternate Launcher. After watching some vids showing how each launcher look and work like i tried the Nova one. But i missed instantly Widgets which i use. Especially the "favourite" widget. I didnt find any alternate widget for Nova. So i changed back to Sense and this time Sense 4. And now i love Sense 4. I wont go back to 3.6 nor any alternate Launcher. At least for the next few weeks. :o

I had the same lagging issue with Sense 4 and Bricked Kernel. When i saw your poste i flashed faux as well and im really impressed how "fluid" it works. So i gonna stick with it.
[HTC Sensation] steely123:
I have installed sense 4 with all versions and launchers.

Personal preference is Apex launcher. Love the desensed! Gives the aosp functionality with the sense 4 look.:D

And yes, the whole team makes for an excellent experience with ROMs and support!

Great job guys!

Blitz 2.7

Yanks 1.81 based on Faux 008b8

With later faux betas I got lesser battery life but I believe that b12 was the smoothest of all. With that one I barely got more than 3 hours of screen time.

Anyways faux's kernel in general has been smoothest of all for me.

With b8 I get easy more than 4 hours. I once got a almost 5 hours of screen time, the first time I installed that version (I was using senseless option). Currently I am using sense.
[HTC Sensation] Daiskei:
I have two current problems... The first one is that no matter how I change up flashing the rom it NEVER restores my apps with Google Play Store.

The second is that since the updated version my phone gets really slow and I have only like 85mb ram free... If I go to task manager to see how much ram is free/what is running it is completely blank and I can't kill anything.
[HTC Sensation] ClydeB1:
Which rom are you using, there are 3 here and the restore works fine for me on Sense 4? Go to Settings/Apps/All and see which apps are using space. Sometimes the email app takes lots of space. You can also try clearing cache for all apps. It sounds like you did a fresh install and that you wiped before flashing.
[HTC Sensation] Daiskei:
I'm sorry, that would help huh? Lol. I'm using 3.6 Blitz 2.7.0. :) Also, yes it was a fresh wiped install.
[HTC Sensation] ClydeB1:
IIRC this is an issue on the 3.6 roms (as mentioned this works on Sense 4). I seem to recall a few users commenting on this and I can't recall that Steve ever resolved it. As suggested in my post above, check the size of stored data for your apps in Settings/Apps to see if any particular app is hogging space
[HTC Sensation] 69gm:
Wow, how are you getting that kind of battery life?! May I ask your configuration especially with Sebastian?

Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] Prinz069:
yes,you can....I deleted many apps through aroma, the rest with rom cleaner. my Xe boots with 98 apps :laugh: no need for config kernel, its already done....

I posted a tut how I set up my device with aroma, rom cleaner, wipes and stuff...guess it was in april...

two days with average useage is pretty good. I think there is currently no better rom. No, I know there isn't

Not sure why but my phone won't connect to WiFi on anything but blitz. I try sense 4 and it doesn't want to connect. That includes Elegancia and ViperS. My phone doesn't like sense 4.

[HTC Sensation] Daiskei:
I have another question... How come Task Manager and long pressing home show different apps running? Which one is right? Also, if I long press home I often have to press it twice to close all of my apps from there.
[HTC Sensation] ItayPBM:
I tried Android revolution hd today. Used it maybe an hour before restoring back to elegancia. just made me apperciate more your great work.
[HTC Sensation] dronepro:
Not sure why they both show diffrent things but the reason you may have to close twice is because certain apps used miltiple processes and because of this closing the app may make it come back because it was still in use by something. i have to do the same thing but usually after about 2 times they go away.
[HTC Sensation] Hoggles:
The Task Manager is your

running apps

and the long press on the home icon is your

recently used

apps. Hence...you'll see task manager in the recently used apps ;)

Did you use the same kernel for All the ROMs? Or was it a different kernel for Sense 4 and Viper S?
[HTC Sensation] sIpInWiT mYdRoId:
Anyone noticing when pressing the button to turn the screen back on that the media volume slider often shows. i have been having this problem but looked over it but it's getting to be a little to often now.
[HTC Sensation] ClydeB1:
That's because you must be touching the vol buttons whilst switching on. The vol buttons are not locked whilst phone is, a common issue on Sense 4 I believe.

Using the stock kernel for all. Not sure what ViperS uses but Elegancia uses the bricked kernel I believe. Can Sebastian's kernel be used on Sense 4? I might try a different kernel and see if I an still having issues.

Just replying to my own post. Based on my regular usage (WiFi/3G on and moderate phone/sms) it looks like I am still going to get about 26-29 hours on a single charge. This is awesome! I can remember when I was running my Sensation on complete stock HTC ROM. I was lucky to squeeze 18-20 hours out of my phone! What a huge improvement!

Thanks to Steve and the entire team for providing such a great ROM! :victory:

bluetooth autdio redirection - car kit

Hi,

I just installed the ROM a week ago. Today I found out that bluetooth redirection with my carkit is not working. I can here them but they don't here me. I can tell you that it worked with my previous rom (hypersensation).

info: I flashed the rom and flashed faux latest kernel over it.

questions:

Is this a know bug ?

Is this kernel related ?

Is there way to debug this and find out what goes wrong ?

[HTC Sensation] the1gladiator:
battery drain is relative and i'm one of the concepts most critical naysayers as i'm an electrical engineer. Battery Drain is 2 fold. 1) There are leaks that need to be patched up in certain roms, and they happen far more frequently with ports than with stock builds. 2) then there is relativity.

what is bad on battery drain meaning? do you have metrics to support this..

here is reality, of what happens when a rom is created vs ported

When HTC / Samsung / Moto build a rom they build the rom for that device, taking into account the hardware. Hardware meaning typical (measured) usage. this is important as related pieces of hardware have current associated with them. current is what directly affects battery drain. so when you see a phones specs they show measurements dealign with expectations of what happens when you surf the net, record videos, etc.

What happens when a rom is ported, the rom will work, but the 2 questions now have a higher importance on the ROM's usability. 1) Leaks. Leaks are more common as the rom maybe trying to access memory allocations/resources not set up for this device, etc. The biggest thing is just because the more important components such as teh processor, etc have identical specs, how is the device accessing/behaving as it pertains to other electrical paths/devices.

Battery drain will always be an issue as it relates to ported ROMS. best that any good developer can do is minimize this by addressing all the known issues where battery leaks exist or as they come across them..

having said that, i'm not experiencing any "severe drain" on my device. what are you doing watching Debbi does PHoenix and listening to Poppin Bottles while checking your call of duty elite app? :D

---------- Post added at 01:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:11 PM ----------

i'm not having that issue. what is your process

Did you flash v2.1.0 then v2.1.1 then v2.1.2 or did you jump straight to v2.1.2? that would be ideal to know to help the dev out in the event that there may have been something overlooked in v2.1.2

on another note, your SD card is far from killed/dead/roadkill/trash if recovery can see it and mount it. just means that there may be a bad download on your file or if you flashed v2.1.2 that the files needed to control mounts/unmounts for the structure were left off. when i cooked my first rom thats the first thing that I learned to include in them

No problem at all. I should note that I have an Anker 1900mAh battery which I purchased when I first got my Sensation. But even with that bigger battery I was only getting 18 hours average on the stock HTC ROM.

When I installed Sense 4 v2.7.0 with Bricked v1.4, I pretty much used default settings except:

- Swipe2Wake OFF

- 1512 Mhz MAX CPU

When I installed Faux's 008b13 kernel on top, I used default settings except:

- Swipe2Wake OFF

- 1512 Mhz MAX CPU

- whatever the MIN safe idle CPU speed was (can't recall)

I have always had good battery life using any Elegancia ROM (Sense 3.6 or 4.0)... at least 18-22 hours, depending on my day. It just seems that lately (since Sense 4 v2.2.0) I have been able to get another 2-4 hours more than normal. I generally charge the phone when I go to bed, unplug it in the morning, and then go all day without every worrying that it's going to run out of juice as long as I put it through regular use. Admittedly, if I put in some heavy usage (i.e. lots of surfing, setting the screen to 100% brightness if I am outdoor all day, ringer turned to 100%, camera/camcorder use, etc.) I will get about 14-16 hours out of it. But it's rare that I do that.

Update: Just to prove it wasn't a fluke, I just hit the 50% remaining mark on my battery and it has been on for 14h 15m with moderate phone and Wi-Fi use. Excellent!

Might be a little off topic but you guys wanna know how to identify if your a flashaholic. I just received my new Sensation from T-Mobile not even 3wks ago because i wrecked the usb port on my 4 month old Sensation, from constantly plugging it in and out of my computer. Well its only 3wks later and im sending another for another new one because i've done the same thing again. But this time in 3wks instead of 4 months. Thanks to an awesome user GROGG88 & T-Macgnolia i was able to use a package from their thread to flash without using my usb port to get back to stock gb, locked, s-on and upgraded back to Tmo Ics so my warranty will cover it for free:good: Just thought this might be funny to some of you all.

What a B.S.... They claimed that Sensation is not capable to work with Sense 4, developer prove them wrong....Sensation is capable to work with PORTED Sense 4 just imagine how fast and fluid Sense 4 will be if it was supported by HTC, but NO they think that we are like Apple users (what you see is what you get), WRONG again dear HTC,

Google now and bluetooth

I was battling with this strange behaviour as when Google now take over form voice dialer, so i tried and tried.....

Yesterday i was about to give up, and because i wanted clean install, i did radical thing

1.Format SD

2.Super vipe

3.Flashed ROM

4.Set everything by hand (not from backup)

I connected my Motorola Bt (ht 820), and to my surprise, when i placed first call using BT (voice dialer was the one to pick up) . I tested Google now , and it worked ( searched for flight information) than placed another call (voice dialer was there to do dialing for me)
