yay finally other bringing the random reboots to the table...for me it is mainly during calls.

i have tried disabling data and making calls etc and nothing can replicate the reboot.

It seems to be that the more important the phone call is the more the device reboots....

funny thing is THIS IS THE ONLY rom that does it!

Uuhm.. I didn't have any reboot yet? Only thing is that my wifi sometimes falls asleep when my phone is in standby.
[HTC Sensation] DDeveryday:
I am having really bad battery problems. It dropped from 100% to 20% in 2 hours. And now I couldn't even turn it on. I shut off the phone and had it charging overnight.
[HTC Sensation] GabrielSousa:
this problem will be fixed in alpha 4, in 1 or 2 days, alpha 4 will be released ;)
[HTC Sensation] lilhugo:
Awesome~ Keep up the good work guys!

I've been reading about everyone's issue with the rom and it's so weird... it's a YMMV (your mileage may vary) situation.

I only have a mild battery drain that is a little bit more than usual.

8AM, 100%, off the plug. 5pm, around 20%, needs the plug.

People that have really bad battery issues, could you list what settings and kernal you're using? Maybe this way we can figure out what everyone's the common setting/factor is?

[HTC Sensation] denverpedro:
Known Bugs?

This thread has gotten VERY out of hand with repeated reporting of the same issues. Hopefully this is useful to anyone new checking into this thread and maybe even for others who just don't have time to read every message. I'd love to see this thread get back to a constructive development thread as opposed to a place to ***** about things not working or argue with each other.

With that in mind, I've taken a few minutes and scrubbed some of the known issues since release of Alpha-3. If you see your issue here then it's known, maybe we can see fewer posts about the same things over and over again.

Also, I tried not to include anything covered in Hawke's known ICS issues thread so read that one if you're new to ICS: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1405457

Here's what I came up with:

Known Issues

Bluetooth not working

Video recording not working (also impacts video calling with Google Voice, etc.)

Audio input (voice recording, voice input, etc.) is not working

Mute button doesn't actually mute the mic during phone calls (even though it highlights as though it's muted)

Stock wifi tethering doesn't work; install the app from the market to wifi tether

Common

MOST users see significantly decreased battery life with a3

Some apps quit unexpectedly (users seem to have significantly varying experiences here)

Some settings are lost on reboot (Android Debugging specifically)

YouTube and/or video playback is choppy in normal mode, setting quality to HQ seems to fix this

Forcing flash on for the camera doesn't work; it seems to be auto-flash only

Intermittent

Random reboots: This seems to vary highly with some never seeing it; some seeing it constantly but most experiencing it rarely

Calls dropping: Some users see this consistently others not at all

Blue tint to screen/colors - Seems to be a combination of hardware and firmware. Various combinations of kernel/firmware seem to fix this; try the 3.0.13 kernel and read Hawke's thread as well

Issues with root access - Re-install busybox from the market

Battery level can jump back up a significant % upon reboot - No known resolution...

Screen "flickering"

Skype hangs up when call is answered

Tips

If you install a3 and end up with a constant boot-loop ensure you're on the latest firmware (3.24, see one of the firmware threads for DL)

USB file transfer is now using MTP (you no longer get a USB popup screen); if you're on a Mac install the client app from Google

Browser FC some claim to be fixed using Opera or other 3rd party browsers

If you're leaving this ROM and reverting to an earlier ROM you will likely need to re-flash the 3.12 firmware or you'll end up in a boot-loop

And can we please stop the bickering between users? If you want to ***** at somebody please do it on a PM.

-Pete

EDIT: I forgot the most important part. A common theme seems to be that people are addicted to this ROM because despite the alpha bugs it's the best thing out there for the Sensation. So THANK YOU to the devs for all the hard work!!!
[HTC Sensation] Dano79:
I have been running this rom for 4 days now no dropped calls some battery drain a little more than normal but not as bad as others.Only two reboots guess I'm lucky. I do really dig this rom I tried 3 others and always came back to quattro. The microbe livewallper kicks ass and of course the quattro settings are a must for me now. I appreciate the hard work the dev put into this rom its the best aosp out there for our phones Cheers

I actually have to say that this rom is really good!

I used it for few days, battery life is great, speed is great.. the only reason I moved to ICS with Sense is because some features doesn't work..

Cant wait for the rom to be fully working.

Great work guys!!!

[HTC Sensation] wmoore:
OK this just happened again in very similar circumstances, so it looks like a pattern!

I was responding to an SMS when I received an alert from Pingdom (a tool I use to monitor servers I manage). I was actually typing when the alert appeared at the top of screen and the notification sound sounded. The keyboard froze completely while the alert flashed by in the notification bar (it was 3 lines of notification I think), then once the notification was done, the phone rebooted. It would probably be difficult for me to replicate again because of timing but the exact (or near as dammit) scenario twice in 24 hours looks like it has the makings of a pattern.

Hopefully this means something to a dev. I'm going to go and log a bug in the bug-tracker and see what response it gets.

Decided to flash Trips Cm9 ROM to see how it performed. After 30 minutes of using it, ran into a crapton of bugs. Seems to be held together with glue like his previous releases. -__-. I give him props for releasing it though. This ROM may have a battery drain issue in alpha 3, but it's the best AOSP rom for the sensation currently.

Also for MMS, I have T-mobile, and I never had to edit my APN....it just worked?
[HTC Sensation] KingDavid63:
Strange.. Usually I can get them to work but not on this rom.. If it ever gets another release I'll wipe and try again...

Have you tried this method:

1) Backup your current ROM

2) Restore a previous working mms rom backup and save mms in Titanium

3) Restore the non-working mms rom backup and retore mms in Titanium

It's worked for me before.
[HTC Sensation] katiepea:
A modified mms.apk would be nice to allow for larger file sizes, my mms works, but images are about 50k averaging, 500k would be nice

[HTC Sensation] DeKroezz:
This is by far the best AOSP build for the sensation! No annoying bugs or something. Only missing video recording, bluetooth and battery life may be improved.. Very good work to the Virtuous Team! Keep up the good work guys xD
[HTC Sensation] katiepea:
if anyone has access to tools for zipping up and signing apk's the modified mms.apk should be easy to create, i just currently can't sign an apk.

i can however edit the XML to allow for a larger MMS size resolution and phone ID, in this xml on the rom the stock profile was AndroidMMS, which works, but in the past if you changed it to Nexusone you could get images up to around 300k or something like that, this changes the resolution also. i've edited the .xml which should be just replaceable inside the mms.apk. location inside apk: res>xml>mms_config.xml

again sorry if this sounds lazy, i'd do it right now but i don't have the resources, though minor, to do it currently.

if the .xml isn't working, which i believe it should, instructions on how to do this are here:

The limits are clearly visible as ASCII text in there. As the limit is 1048576, you need to make that 0307200 to be on the safe side. I also edited the resolution, 1024x768 would seem plenty for an MMS. The result is that outgoing messages here are around 100kb when resized and it never hits that 300KB limitation. Picture below shows the file after I did the changes described above.

Now just save the file and close your binary editor then update the .apk file. Note that the .apk is basically just a zip archive so no special tools are needed but the easiest way is to is to use an archiver that lets you open the .apk, edit the file and close it. No need to extract and repack.

Now all you have to do is to push the .apk back to your device.

adb push Mms.apk system/app

adb reboot

this should hopefully fix anyones MMS for any network that offers the nexusone

for some reason after i tried this myself, messaging was just FC'ing, i dunno if i need to sign it or not, some people say you don't, but i couldn't get it going.
[HTC Sensation] Nyto75:
so, it doesn't work? ..
[HTC Sensation] katiepea:
It should work if someone can place that in the apk properly. I don't have a pc at the moment, or someone can follow those instructions

Unless someone can find a cm9 build with an edited mms.apk, not sure if ones been made though

I've been trying to help somebody out in another thread and so ended up rolling back to stock to test some stuff. I took a backup first of course but when I have gone to restore that backup, it tells be there is an MD5 mismatch. When I look inside my backup folder, everything is there but there is no nandroid.md5 file. Is it possible for me to create one so I can restore that backup or am I stuck with re-configuring everything from scratch again? :(
[HTC Sensation] korrel2008:
I am running it now(cm9) for 5 hours and i must say it is running very well here but i will try the next release of quatro also and then i will decide wich one ill take :D
[HTC Sensation] nccu_eagles:
download handcent sms from the market and make it the default mms app it works for me and I have zero mms issues my files are are 1M
[HTC Sensation] wmoore:
OK so I restored an older backup just to get something on the phone. Then I checked the nandroid.md5 from this 'good' backup and saw that it just contains individual MD5 checksums for data.img, recovery.img, etc. So I checked the MD5 sums of the files in the latest backup using Root Explorer, then re-created the nandroid.md5 file for this backup using those sums.

And now I have restored my 'broken' backup which is working fine. It's nearly 2am so I think I need some sleep :D

GPS icon does not appear, like GPS is not even starting. I'd appretiate any advice. I like this ROM and do not care about bluetooth and camcoder, so GPS is the only major issue for me.

[HTC Sensation] techn0crat:
Nice ROM.

You know, there are some build.prop tweaks that really help out.

I made a few changes and this ROM really flies!

Fantastic! This is precisely what I wanted.

But I've been wondering why people don't use SWAP or MTD re-partitioning anymore. There's a lot of spare space in /system and /cache----- that can be used for something, right?

Or has the hardware changed so much since Legacy devices that these methods of performance enhancements are obolete?
