Do at least a cache wipe and dalvik cache wipe before upgrading your rom

Always backup your rom before doing an upgrade. I use Titanium Backup and the recovery backup tools.

The latest versions of this rom are based on an other BASE so it is recommended to do a full WIPE.

It is common when you have ROM issue's, you first try again with a full WIPE and a clean INSTALL

Then restoring user app+data will save you time, do not restore system apps or system data
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
The backup part is truely a very important step, I forgot to mention that !!

As for the base change, it's really not enough to justify a full wipe, even the firmware just brought a new radio.

I've gone to 3.3 without wipe, no issue at all.

But a cache / dalvik cache wipe is important, dalvik needs to be reuild to not leave potential conflicts of new system apps with old dalvik cache for those apps.

Of course, should you stumble over problems, then a full wipe & Titanium user app restore is the fastest way to go.

where can I find yank555's kernel? want to try it.

thank you!
[HTC Sensation] DarkManHaze:
So, I just played it safe and did a full wipe, updated to 3.33 firmware, then flashed HNS v3.3.

All seems to be going fine. No more calendar problems :good:

Cheers Spider.
[HTC Sensation] Arie-:
I'm 90% sure I narrowed down the FM Radio problem, it is in one of the following files

\system\app\Bluetooth.apk
\system\app\SystemUI.apk
\system\app\DefaultContainerService.apk
\system\app\ApplicationsProvider.apk
\system\framework\HTCDev.jar
\system\framework\HTCExtension.jar
\system\framework\com.android.future.usb.accessory.jar
\system\framework\javax.obex.jar

I flashed these files and did a dalvik cache wipe and FM radio started again. I did a diff over 2.8-overloaded and my own version of 3.3 with the tool WinMerge and found some 100 files or so different from each other. I each time tested some of the most likely candidates. I'm going to try again to make sure it is one of these files.
[HTC Sensation] amm009uk:
Search button does nothing

I'm still on 2.9 its too good to leave really:laugh: The only problem I have is my search button does nothing:confused: Any help please?
[HTC Sensation] DarkManHaze:
Doesn't work on v3.3. either. But to be honest, I have never used it before.
[HTC Sensation] Arie-:
The FM Radio issue isn't solved, yet. The file incompatible making the radio crash immediately is

\system\framework\HTCExtension.jar

The FM Radio now starts, when turning on the radio it works up until 95%, then "turning off" is displayed, but this stalls the application, the application now doesn't do anything and can only be turned off by terminating the application from the system/apps/running menu.
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
You're testing using 3.32 files ?

I will have to get thrse 3.33 RUU files deodex'ed so we can try with those...

JP.

Sent from my HyperNonSense v3.3 / Yank555.lu kernel v1.3a (based on faux 008b4) powered htc Sensation XE using xda premium
[HTC Sensation] Arie-:
Yes, these are 3.32 files you are correct. I'm going to restore my ROM in a few minutes (3.33 with correct firmware), then I'm going for the same files, but then from the Elegancie Blitz ROM instead of the HNS-2.8 Overloaded.

Edit: I've also tested with files from Blitz, FM Radio fails at the same point, at 95%. Next step is to test a different kernel. Attached is the logcat of the failing fm radio.

Edit2: The same issue with the SebastianFM's kernel.

Havent used this rom in months... Just had a couple questions before I came back...

1. Does Wifi calling still work from the addons?

2. Is the FC issue with MMS fixed?

3. Does it still contain the camera mod?

Thanks again

[HTC Sensation] Arie-:
I did some further testing, Installed HNS 3.3 without flashing an additional kernel. After flashing the ROM I pushed the /lib and /framework folders from Blitz, there FM Radio also stays at 95% and fails to properly stop. I'm now going to install Blitz and see whether the FM radio works in that ROM. Going about that thread it seams it does, but I want to confirm that myself now.

Edit: I can confirm FM Radio works on Elegancia Blitz, now only we have to figure out what's changed.

/system/lib

/system/framework

kernel

supporting /system/app apk's

Files from /lib and /system alone didn't solve the problem. HTCExtension.jar from /system prevented an immediate FC for the FM Radio. Then the radio didn't FC but failed to turn on and properly shut down. This was not solved by only pushing all /system/lib and /system/framework files. I think this leaves the kernel and possibly some stupid missing apk from /system/app. If it is the kernel, does this mean something has changed to the radio in 3.33? Is someone still on radio 3.32 and HNS3.3 with FM Radio?

Edit2: I've flashed SebastianFM's and Faux's kernels in Blitz, both cases the FM Radio works. I'm guessing there's some thing else missing because I can't think of any missing /system/app, /system/lib or /system/framework files.
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
Dough :( Looks like you've gone through a lot of trouble and nothing paid off :eek:

I'll try going the path to deodex the RUU 3.33 files directly, just to be certain that's not the issue...

Or is Eleganzia RUU 3.33 based already ??

JP.
[HTC Sensation] Arie-:
Yes it is, the thread at least says 3.33.401.106 which is the same as HNS I think.

Edit: now I'm starting to doubt this, this thread mentions 3.33.401.6 if that's correct I may have put a lot of effort in something because I read one or two thread titles wrong.

Edit2: There apparently are two versions of 3.33.401.x. x=6 V x=106.
[HTC Sensation] amm009uk:

Hi Spider,

Just have been experiencing some issues with superuser (Samba File Sharing taking too long to get SU and thus getting Android popup asking if it should kill the app or wait).

Been trying with SuperSU and the problem is gone...

I'll cook SuperSU in my zip file, might be worth investigating and maybe use SuperSU ?

Random Reboots

Hi Everyone,

I updated to HNS v3.3 and am having random reboots. I tried a clean install after a full wipe and I tried just installing over v3.1, but it still happens. I didn't upgrade the firmware and am still on 3.32. Is that perhaps the problem? I was using the latest Bricked and thought that was perhaps the culprit and so I switched to Faux123's v8 b4, but the reboots are still happening. Is it because I didn't update the firmware? Or should I just stay with the stock kernel? I'm on T-Mobile USA using the 11.69A.3504.00U_11.23.3504.07_M2 radio. I've also noticed that my data connection seems very poor. Any ideas?

Thanks!

Mebborne
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
I'm afraid I don't think firmware (radio) is the issue, I ran 3.3. on 3.32 firmware for more or less a day, no reboot...

Do you undervolt ?

JP.
[HTC Sensation] Mebborne:
Thanks for the help JP. No, I don't undervolt. I just installed using all default settings for both Bricked and Faux's. I'm wondering what I should try next? I could just go back to HNS 3.1. The only problem I had with it was the Calendar not fully working, but that's better than random reboots I guess. Any other ideas? Thanks again.
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
Do you have the calendar issue on a clean 3.1 install as well ? I can't help on this, I removed the calendar components completely since I use company calendar software...

JP.
[HTC Sensation] Splder:
to get calender working on 3.1 copy the calenderprovider.apk from 3.3 in system/app
[HTC Sensation] pottyvick:
Dont mean to be a pest just really want to flash this rom... Anybody know about the above? I already searched but nothing comes up for 3.3
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
To 1 : No idea, don't use it.

To 2 : No idea, removed the stock mms.apk, I use GoSMS instead.

To 3 : Don't know, but I replaced the htccamera.apk with the ultra camera mod, works great !

Anyhow, deodex's HTCFMRadio.apk and BrcmBluetoothServices.apk, but they still don't work :(

JP.
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
Hi,

Good news !!! FM Radio is working ;)

What I did :

- use all the libraries of RUU 3.33 (/system/lib) --> this could/should be optimized, there's too much !

- use HTCExtension.jar of Elegancia Blitz ROM

- deodex'ed "BrcmBluetoothServices.apk" and "HtcFMRadio.apk" of RUU 3.33

Here's a download link to a flashable fix (too big to attach to the post).

MD5:cc681ccfed40bb269708b52c91d4da2e

Be carefull, I haven't tested this flashable zip, so before doing anything, do a nandroid backup !!

--> Many Thanx to Arie for doing all this digging !!!

HNS3.5 :

Here is a file with just the missing files for HNS3.5, since it's overloaded, no need to add any libs !

[HTC Sensation] Arie-:
Downloading itself works, you however have to add downloadproviderui.apk from /system/app if you want to be able to view downloads while they're active. You can get that file from a deodexed Sensation Sense 3.6 ROMs, or ARHD or Elegancia Blitz eg. I don't know if it is legal to share that file myself.
[HTC Sensation] Arie-:
Okay, I still cannot get my FM Radio to work: still hangs at 95%.

whiped several times

checked radio

checked rom

checked Yanks flashable zip

combinations of these things

used two different headsets

tried clean installs without anything else installed except for kernel, rom and fm radio

different kernels

In Blitz my radio works.

Edit: According to one of my previous posts a channel could not be initialized, perhaps a stereo jack issue. Going to try some great stereo music now: The Doors.

Edit2: Argh no, that cannot be it, in Blitz my radio works.

I found wich wifi calling patch works....

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1654940

Its the sense ICS version that works 100%. Calls and mms work great.

Also, i keep having random reboots. I had brick kernel and am now on faux latest beta and both have random reboots. It only happens when waking the phone sometimes.... Not sure why. The min freq is set to 486...
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
That high ?? Undervolting ? Any specific lockscreen replacement ?

JP.
[HTC Sensation] pottyvick:
I meant... Min 192 and max 486... No lockscreen replacement.

I upped the min (screen off) to 384 to see if that was it... although ive never had that problem before...
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
Some have issues at 192MHz min...

Do you use a CPU freq. apk (like SetCPU) ?

JP.
[HTC Sensation] pottyvick:
With bricked i didnt use any app... with faux i use setcpu...

---------- Post added at 10:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:38 AM ----------

It just did it again... Im going to deactivate the screen off profile to see if thats my issue.

EDIT: Ok i figured out it happens when i get a sms/mms and push the power button to turn on the screen...
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
Never happened to me :(

And if you use sweep2wake to turn it on ?

JP.
[HTC Sensation] pottyvick:
I never installed that... this is weird. ill keep testing. it may be wifi calling so ill see if it happens again, ill uninstall that.
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
Well actually you did ;) You flashed briked & faux's kernels, and they both include that mod !

JP.
[HTC Sensation] pottyvick:
With bricked, i always choose not to install it. With faux it doesnt give me an option and when i swipe nothing happens.
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
The I guess the cmdline for briked "no swipe" is still active...

Try this in a terminal session :

echo 2 > /sys/android_touch/sweep2wake/s2w_switch

That's the sysfs interface I added for sweep2wake and faux pulled it into his kernel.

It will not survive a reboot, though !

[HTC Sensation] kboeckx:
for the record

a few day's ago, I upgraded to 3.3 this way:

Full wipe

install v3.3

install faux's latest kernel

install defaulttheme

After first boot, I notices wifi was not working. I forgot to upgrade radio. I installed the latest firmware 3.33 ... wifi was working again.

The overall feeling with this version is that it is not as good as v2.8. I'm missing some things in the theme (default theme with v2.8 is what I like), I had a few random reboot while using the phone ... battery life is also not that good ... other than that, it OK.

I can live with the default theme being not that what I'm used to nevertheless a phone should not reboot itself ... so after a few day's of running v3.3, I went back to v2.8 (long live nandroid)

I hope those issues will get resolved afterall ... I will test next version when it is available.
[HTC Sensation] hdjx20:
i too have been having soft reboots tried bricked faux and anthrax kernels
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
Very strange, I've been on 3.3 with faux kernel 008b4 (based), default theme, for a few days and had no issue whatsoever, no reboot no glitch.

In the meantime I've themed and modded the ROM, still running fine...

@kboeckx : What is different with default theme between 3.3 and 2.8 ? It's default ICS as far as I can tell...

also has anyone being able to use dsp manager over bluetooth? it only works with me when i use the speaker settings, not bluetooth settings, but what i need is to use the bluetooth settings because the speaker setting do not have "loudness compensation" and that's what i need to boost my car system more

Swapped from VI to this ROM a week ago, it's a similar experience but a few of the minor bugs that VI has are gone; key lights and auto brightness work better while some apps are more compatible.

Battery life, using the included kernel, was worse to start with but now I can get a full 24hrs with 5hrs screen on time. Not quite as good as VI where I could get nearly 48hrs and up to 9hrs screen on but overall worth it for the bug fixes.

Not convinced about the dark theme, even with the default theme flashed - things are a little too dark to see check boxes etc.

Many of you might having samsung account update problem and trouble in enabling sim change alert. I found this app when I google it. It worked for me with RR V23 so i thought it would help for others.

Moderators if this post does not deserve here pls do what ever it has to be done. Regret for the incovenience.

Installation:

1. Delete the samsungservice.apk using root explorer (.apk can be found under system/app/)

2. Paste the attached samsungservice.apk in the same folder.

3. Restart the device

4. Go to Accounts & Sync-Add accounts-Samsung account

5. Now it should prompt for an update.

6. Proceed with the updation.

That's it now your samsung account should work good.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidtechdaily:
So here is the situation.

We know our SE Xperia Plays are getting the major update to Ice Cream Sandwhich but Sony is doubting that it will be able to perform and deliver gaming performance like gingerbread does currently. This is because the Play has rather outdated hardware. But they are not looking outside the box. We have great developers here that have excellent skills for exaple DooMlord. These guys could help optimize ICS to give the graphic capabilitys Gingerbread does currently.

So my conclusion? We take the update and then all pull our wait to optimize it like we've done with gingerbread ( WE HAVE A 2GHZ OVERCLOCK)

Whats your view on this topic?

There are already custom ICS roms and kernels that work really well. Check the development section

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] powdered_donuts:
thanks for the effort but dont do that.

after some reading, designgears .exe leak changes everything INCLUDING flashing ics bootloaders. if you read dag8s op he uses gingerbread bootloaders with ics on top to allow you to restore back to a gingerbread backup seamlessly.

Otherwise you will have to manually flash gb bootloaders
