+1 for Wagedroid.

It's more or less a kernel problem them. I'll dig a little more and see if I can find some more info about it.
[HTC Sensation] Wagedroid:
The ol thumb trick ;)
[HTC Sensation] Keioboy:
Have not found any info about optical sensors in my log. And the thumb trick doesn't work for me.
[HTC Sensation] Keioboy:
It's some kind of a kernel related problem. Because at stock kernel it's gets lighter if I choose manual adjestment and gets darken when I choose autobrightness. With Sultan kernel sensors doesn't work at all. I'm gonna try every compitable kernel with stock ROM and report results later.

---------- Post added at 09:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:32 AM ----------

None of custom kernel worked like stock. Reflashing stock RUU. At least I'll get half-working light and proxy sensors.

Reflashed stock ROM and lost those semi-working sensors too :(. May be it's a HBOOT problem. Because after reflashing hboot sensors works till next reboot.
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
Thanks for the log. You can reflash your HBOOT and/or firmware if you want:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1459767

You can also update to 1.29.

As far as it being kernel or HBOOT related, I'm weighing towards kernel as it's the easiest to tweak.
[HTC Sensation] Keioboy:
Returned to universal firmware with latest radio and Inspiration ROM.
[HTC Sensation] Eezay:
And how are the Sensors doing?
[HTC Sensation] Keioboy:
They both are dead :(
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
Try HBOOT 1.29?
[HTC Sensation] Keioboy:
Gonna try it now.
[HTC Sensation] Eezay:
Please share your result with us ;)
[HTC Sensation] Keioboy:
Tried HBOOTs from Kohr Universal 3.33, from Mike1986 and from Jupuntubear. None of them worked.
[HTC Sensation] slipknotfn:
Not sure if anyone tried this but try switching ROMs. I can confirm, at least in my Seni, that the proximity sensor and light sensor work using Elelinux's newest AOKP. Tested it on calls and in varying light levels. On Frankinstine's (using Sultan kernel r23) I cannot say the same as the lux level indicator changed but the screen was slow or did not make a noticeable difference. Also the proximity sensor sis nor work as I could press buttons mid call. I did not try with Franks stock kernel. I am going to try with Albinomans shortly. All seemed to have the files to operate the sensors though. Someone with more brain power than I should have a look see. But this is an annoying thing, hitting buttons and face dialing all willy nilly.
[HTC Sensation] teeebor:
Today i installed the following:

RUU_Pyramid_HTC_Europe_1.35.401.1_Radio_10.43a.9007.00U_10.51.9007.27_M3_release_198179_signed (link)

After that both the proximity and the light sensor seems not work. Rebooted to recovery and the phone loaded something. Rebooted again and the sensors are worked :)

Then installed the latest firmware, 4ext recovery touch and Team Venom's ViperS 1.6.3 rom. My sensors come back to life.

Thanks a lot guys!
[HTC Sensation] Keioboy:
Are your sensors still working?
[HTC Sensation] teeebor:
Working without problem :)

---------- Post added at 07:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:46 PM ----------

I think the problem is that something messed up because of flashing. So after RUU all must be recovered. For me it works
[HTC Sensation] Eezay:
Do they still work after some reboots?
[HTC Sensation] scanferr:
I have this issue as well. I remember with mike's rom sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. More the times that it doesn't than it does though. Im on albinomans for some time and it doesn't work at all.

Any ideas?
[HTC Sensation] teeebor:
Yes they all worked after a lot of reboots, flash etc. until yesterday. The sensors overcharged on the bright sulight while booting :(
[HTC Sensation] teeebor:
Fixed again without the "solution" i've posted above.

Here is what i do:

1.) Turned off Pocked Mode (Settings -> Sound -> Pocket mode)

2.) Turned off Fast boot (Settings -> Power -> Fast boot)

3.) Turned off the device, removed the battery for a minute and powered back on

edit

after reboot the sensors are dead again :/

I've lost light and prox sensor ever since going to 3.32 firmware I think. But you know what's odd? Navigon has always been switching to nightmodus when daylight drops and it still does. Same goes for Gnav. I assume they make use of the same (only) sensor so how can this be??
[HTC Sensation] teeebor:
The navigation's nightmode is based primarily on the current time
[HTC Sensation] pepetrovski:
Seems to be working, at least for several minutes now

Hi guys!

I finally decided to part from my HTC, for a while at least. Probably because I was left with few days of my warranty :).

Anyway, the phone went to the supplier, and after 15 days they returned it back from service. They said that they have changed some flat cable on it.

I tested it out in the shop, rebooted it and it was always working. Proximity works when on the ear, when flipped over (speakerphone turns on). Ambient works also.

As I mentioned I have tried several roms after I did S-OFF, but not helping. Then I S-ON, returned very old rom, worked once or twice, then nothing. Upgrading to other HTC official roms, not helping. Very very rarely, it would work for one time maybe, then back to not working. So I guess it may really have been the cable problem. In my case, however.

I know want to try to root it again and see what happens.

Hopefully this will help someone.

Have a lovely day!

---------- Post added at 03:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:39 PM ----------

Just to add that when going back to the shop and asking if the sensors are really not working, they mentioned that on these types of devices if they are gone the whole display should be replaced.

But in this case, it was just the cable.

Have a nice one!
[HTC Sensation] mn.code:
It's a hardware problem, trust me ;)

For me, the sensors worked once in 100 reboots... Then I dissasembled device and put piece of paper under headphone jack (to push it up a litle bit) and voila it worked! But my camera also didn't work (even after reassembly and before) so I bought another flat cable (it costed me 35€ here in Serbia, also I couldn't find brand new so I had to buy used one) but now everything is working as it should...

I was just wondering if such a ROM exists. From my searching it looks like all of the WM6.5 ROM's are built off the Leo base ROM. I saw the (now deprecated/abandoned) WM6.1 ROM but I'd prefer a "pure" WM6.5 experience without the SENSE cruft.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
you can turn sense off (though i forget exactly how since its been such a long time) but you are looking for teh settings that control which items appear on eth homepage, and simply untick htc sense.

There used to be a senseless rom, im sure, but whether its still available im not sure.

Get a kitchen a cook your own without sense, its not that hard, its WAY easier than trying to build an android rom.

2. Download boost.zip file and then unzip the that file and put in the SD card...

3. Open Root Explorer (Mounted on R / W) / SDCard / menu button / Multi-select / chose boost / Copy / system / bin / then click paste...

4. Open Terminal emulator and taype:

su

boost

UPDATE: have found it runs pretty much same as V6 Supercharger, drains battery horribly though.

I was on 54% battery last night, data & wifi off and killed tasks before going bed.. I checked CPU Spy, it had been in a deep sleep state for most of the night.

I awoke to a dead phone, which doesn't even happen on the v6 supercharger!

How do I uninstall this script, can I just delete the file from bin?

[Wildfire Android Development] sambwel:
To really see the benefits of the boost, you need to change the file permissions. Go into a root terminal and type:

chmod +t boost

This gives the boost Time Travel permissions. Now, all processes will be completed before you even run them. Talk about a turbo boost!!

Ok just done a little digging around the op's other thread (which is now locked by a mod) on a different forum as he hasn't exactly explained what this does in any of them which leads me to believe he doesn't exactly know, and probably copied it from someone else, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1542602

What this does is clear the cache filesystem. 3 = free pagecache, dentries and inodes, while 1 = just free pagecache. Which in theory will decrease battery life as the cache needs to then be rebuilt afterwards.

This is already included in v6 supercharger so no need to use this if you have v6, just perform the engine flush or whatever its called whenever you want to free up some memory stuck in cache files. Its basically the same thing according to other users, I haven't looked to see if thats true or not but they sounded like they knew what they we're talking about so i believe them.

Had a chance to compare the one x, running official 4.0.3 software, galaxy nexus, running CM9 4.0.4 and a galaxy s2, running ning official rooted 4.0.3,and to my surprise, the galaxy nexus and galaxy s2, would open YouTube videos first and play them, before the one x. Obviously this was for my own testing, so didn't record this on video, but was surprised as expected the one x, to traunce the old Samsung "guard", but alas, the Samsung 2,were superior. I done this via the same wifi connection.
[HTC One X] x3phyr:
Well, you would have been perfectly content had you not measured them against eachother, so why not just forget it and remain, indeed, perfectly content? This is one of those things where it's more subjective and probably won't matter to most, seeing as objective benchmarks put it far and away from both the S2 and Nexus.
[HTC One X] SartoriXX:
Did you find the YouTube performance an issue with your other phones and this was the reason to upgrade? If so then fair enough, otherwise one test on one app speed does not tell the story of the whole phone. Also, as a brand new phone there will always be improvements to come from firmware updates, so I wouldn't worry too much.
[HTC One X] marvi0:
No what happened was, I was just trying to impress my wife, hoping she would be happy, as it's hers, so she asked, what was the main difference between the one x and the galaxy s2, which which she had been using till today, so because she liked YouTube, i decided, to try and show her, how well the new gadget performed, much to my dismay, but as you have said, updates should solve this.
