I did a superwipe and now is all right! ;) the only bug for me now is the GPS module that is not working very well.. when I've to do a Check In it says that he could not determine my position.. is there a way to fix it?

Thank you, your're doing an amazing job man! :)

Edit: The GPS module works outside buildings, but when I'm at home or inside any other buildings it doesn't work (it's strange because with my original ROM Stock i reache a perfect GPS signal from my own bed). Is that a problem or is it normal?

Hi Jonny

Is there any problem with the camera on this rom ? when i try to make picture the buttons are freezing for some seconds and the camera quits itself ... Any idea ?
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
There is a bug with face detection, turn it off and it should be alright
[HTC Sensation] Gelunox:
any updates on your progress with this rom? (=
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
It is currently on short term hold until I fix the issues with booting for the sense 3.6 ROM. I dont want to leave the sense 3.6 users with a half working version that breaks with a superwipe. But once I fix that then I will return to sense 4 ROM again
[HTC Sensation] tekken1972:
Bugs fixing!

I love your 3.6 rom, are you going to fix the bugs of this rom?

Love to try it.
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Im going to update this ROM shortly - within the next 2-3 weeks seeing as the sense 3.6 ROM is working perfect now.

Firstly I'll update the ROM to the same bases as the others and upload, so the bugs will be wifi tether and hdmi output.

then after the basic ROM is updated, I'll try and bring something new in terms of bug fixes and first on the list is porting the HQ Camera mod to the new base because I've seen thousands of posts in the other threads complaining about this and it shouldnt be too hard to port. Then I'll see what I can do towards wifi tether and hdmi, though because I cant currently test things, I'll upload random test files for people to flash ;)

The only thing that wont be in this ROM are the new tweaks because the "sharing" policy of the pkmn team is very closed source in attitude to say the least, you can read it for yourself to see what I mean.
[HTC Sensation] Gelunox:
wheeeew ^^

i'll test everything you upload as long as you can assure me it doesn't brick my phone =P

hope your updates will soon be rolling as quick as they did before the exams ^^
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
As long as I dont ask you to flash a new firmware package there is no risk of brick :)

I was quite unlucky with firmware that bricked my phone because I didnt check its MD5 until after and found it was corrupt
[HTC Sensation] armandino:
Update suggestion...

Hi Jonny

I turned back my phone to 6.3.2 because i see this rom as favorite and best performance for my sensation xe. I would like to ask you if you will lunch a new update for sense 3.6 and if the answer is yes, i have suggestion for the camera on 3.6 - i liked the multi-shot on 4.0 by pressing and holding the capture button, also the menu icons on 4.0 are sliding left/right not up/down as it is on 3.6. If these things could be updated, the rom 3.6 will resolve on perfect development.

Maybe this is not the right place to talk about 3.6 but since i saw some modifications on your last rom i thought it could be better and best to pack them on the 6.3.2.

Ty and congrats for your hard work.

Regards,

armando
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Hi

This would be very interesting for me to try to do because its a mixture of everything, themeing, xml modification and smali hack so I will probably set some time aside for it once I have updated both this ROM and the Sense 3.6 ROM (Sense 3.6 one again because there are a few too many minor bugs for my liking - though none of them are major) so watch this space! ;)
[HTC Sensation] iorya984:
Hey Johnny don't leave the Sense 4 project please.. I love this Rom even if it has little bugs, in camera shot mostly (like face detector) but it's a great ROM, stable and fast.. hoping for updates also for this one ;)

[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Im not leaving the ROM and will probably update it within 2-3 weeks, dont want to be more specific for ETA just in case I'm early/late with the update
[HTC Sensation] Gelunox:
goads, please update. my phone is getting more buggy lately. reboots a lot of the time for no reason.

also, are you gonna make an update for android 4.1? =D
[HTC Sensation] irrelephant:
An update to 4.1 would require a rom that is from HTC to port that is jelly bean with sense 4.0... So it is unlikely that this particular Rom will see it, but as soon as a sense jelly bean rom is released in am sure we will send one/multiple from our developers.
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:

Still porting leedroid tweaks for sense 3.6 then I'm going on a 2 week holiday on Friday but after that, I will update this ROM :)
[HTC Sensation] InfinityFTW:

Hi,

Is it working with 3.33 base ??

And is it stock looking ?

Thx guys =)
[HTC Sensation] Gelunox:
Any words on updates? I really really hate my phone rebooting out of nowhere time and again lately >:\
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Yesterday I started work on a sense 3.6 update which I hope to complete within 1-2 weeks so after that my attention will turn to this ROM
[HTC Sensation] EndOfDays-Wildfire:
Does HDMI work(because on most Sense 4 Roms it does not yet, just curious if anyone knows)?
[HTC Sensation] Stephen:
No unfortunitly it wont work on any sense 4 rom at the minute. I think it will never work unless HTC release the source code for it.
[HTC Sensation] iorya984:
Any news for this project?

Inviato dal mio HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e con Tapatalk 2
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
I'll start work on an update for this tomorrow (do I hear people saying "its about time"? ;) ), I just have 1 last thing to do before that and it shouldnt take long :)
[HTC Sensation] Gelunox:
It is about time :P

I had already switched to elegancia in the mean time
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
I was originally waiting to get my phone back from the insurance company (was going to try a pure Sense 4.1 port from Ville S4 2.31 base) but they're taking there time about it so I'll just stick to Sense 4 Ville C2 base and maybe add the images and resources from sense 4.1 apk :)
[HTC Sensation] nickislauw:
Maybe when BanB has finished his PURE sense 4.1 ROM, you could ask him to use his rom as a base??

Or does it sound stupid? :silly:
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Maybe...

As a side note, do any Sense 4 ROMs apart from ViperS have tabbed EQS like in sense 3.6? If not I'll port it from one x - I want to see what new stuff I can do for sense 4 otherwise my ROMs just end up being exactly like any other...

Although I am doing research into the intergrated OTA thing and the only thing I need now is server space with MySQL database and CGI perl scripting so I'm taking a look into some of these free hosting services (I dont need a massive amount of space, 10mb would easily do it, just need somewhere to host the scripts, the FOTA will be downloaded from my FTP) :)
[HTC Sensation] Gelunox:
hmm, If its not gonna be public use or anything, just you having a place for your files, you could use some of my server... already have mysql and ftp up and running. idunno exactly what you want to do...?

(to be clear, it is a serverpc I built myself, and I'm sitting next to it, got a fiberglass connection 100/50mbit andsoforth)
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Thanks for the offer, I'll pm you later today or tomorrow with details - it wont be public no because the script will link to the OTA files which will be stored on my existing FTP.
[HTC Sensation] Gelunox:
define "later today or tomorrow" for me please :P
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
in the middle of it now actually :p though now I'm replying to this I might as well just copy what I put in the PM into this post as well:

I managed to get it sorted though, a mate from school pointed me in the direction of a site which has unlimited traffic, unlimited MySQL databases, 500MB webspace, CGI/perl scripts and a load of other features I will probably never use for free, but thanks anyway for the offer :)
[HTC Sensation] kswiss86:
"port from Ville S4 2.31 base". That is possible? I read on all threads that every Dev waiting for a Version from Ville C2 :)
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Yeah its possible but breaks more than it fixes so its not worth it.

As for this ROM, Team Darkforest and Team MikroSense are teaming up :D
[HTC Sensation] Stephen:
This could be a very interestng combiation. Good luck and enjoy dev'ing :)
[HTC Sensation] kswiss86:
wow thats could be a really good combination. :good:
[HTC Sensation] Gelunox:
How's it going on the devving? :D
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
We've got a few things lined up... Dont want to give too much away ;)
[HTC Sensation] Gelunox:
awhh mehhn, mkay, but please be quick! this elegancia rom, even tho everything works, is slower than a snail's poop
[HTC Sensation] kswiss86:
Get jonny an the Team time to make it perfect man.
[HTC Sensation] mjavaid:
so R u working on a new release for this ROM
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
No, new ROM is a team effort with MikroSense team
[HTC Sensation] djboris:
Hi,

WiFi tethering and FM radio still not works?

I am waiting a nice sense in my Sensation, but with working functions...

(and JB too... ok for JB later and later... ;) )
[HTC Sensation] Gelunox:
I recommend switching to elegancia for the time being... they have a nice rom, and everything works and stuff, its just a bit slow-ish
[HTC Sensation] Gelunox:
Is the new rom up yet?
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
No, unfortunatly its still not stable enough - I keep getting HTC Sense (Rosie) FC every couple of mins and im about halfway into looking through every single file in framework folder to try and find the problem :(
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
scrap that, I have a Ville C2 Sense 4.1 and Android 4.0.4 RUU now :)
[HTC Sensation] Gelunox:
Will you make a version with Android 4.1.1? :D
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Only when Android 4.1 RUU comes out :)
[HTC Sensation] Gelunox:
Any updates yet? :D

(I keep asking because a. I'm not the most patient and b. I'm always curious about where you are on the project)
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
I got it booting but no audio, no data, video playback doesnt work correctly and camera doesnt work well so its not stable daily but I'm working on it :)
[HTC Sensation] chc31:
[T...Trying not to let out "when can it be ready! ] :P

Because this was the most stable sense 4 ROM for me (not to mention my first!) , so smooth and excellent battery life (IMO, obviously haha)

Plus it was so basic, i loved it. you go crazy when you can customize every aspect of the UI, but it can be fun. For me, not anymore lol, this should be good!
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
This new port is reiterating how much I dislike smali as a programming language... :(
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
It boots!!! Fair enough there's still loads to fix but its a start :)

Current bugs (that I know of. There are probably more I don't know yet)

Data doesn't work, WiFi doesn't work (this one is easy fix), hdmi out doesn't work (quel suprise), sdcard gives an error when mounting, I tried to port dice and ereader to sense 4 but there not playing nice either so I won't be including those :)
[HTC Sensation] Gelunox:
naaaais, good work! fix those bugs and I'll be back using yours ^^

oh, and they're* not there (I've seen this go wrong in memes so often I'm grammar-nazi'ing this too :P )
[HTC Sensation] chc31:
That's awesome! Wifi you say is easy, so cross that out, all should be good. Anyone confidently expecting a HDMI out working ROM on Sense 4... AHAHAHAHAHAHA... Cross that out, don't worry and the readers you can get from the play store.

Personally i don't use data (oooooo yes, so what? ;) ) so i wouldn't mind, but it's no biggie. Thats basically all you need.

Previously your sense 4 rom had NO LAG :) so i wont worry about that and good battery life. You're set, take your time!
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
WiFi and data fixed :)
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Sdcard mounting errors fixed. Part 1 of lyapota's enhanced sound enhancer done (they don't all work, Dolby, SRS, Beats, No Effect, HTC 5.1, Bass Boost, Classical, Vocal and Treble Boost work, the rest don't). :)

Before anyone asks, no I can't port the Viper sound enhancer/custom EQ due to team venom's sharing policy (or lack thereof)...
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Screenshots
[HTC Sensation] Gelunox:
wew, you're really going fast now :P
[HTC Sensation] epsix:
Bluetooth,hotspot,WiFi tethered those are hard to fix, hope you've got it working.
[HTC Sensation] MidnightDevil:
Hello :)

I'm still S-ON with hboot 3.27 (I think), I did the official ICS update :)

Can I flash this rom using smart flash ? Or is anyone sure that it will not work?

I was willing to give it a try before I go macgyver on my XE.
[HTC Sensation] MidnightDevil:
Flashed and no issues so far, great job!
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Bluetooth was already working - had to use libs from current sense 4 port (android 4.0.3) and some smali from that too.

I don't use hotspot or tether so can't test but hotspot fix is in ramdisk so should work
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
sorry for the OT ..but jonny can you take a small request ?

when playing playing music there will be a notification in the notification pull down bar right ?

but when we pause the music that notification will be completely gone from the notification pull down bar ..so to resume music we need to go to the music app/widget again (assuming the earphones doesn't have play/pause controls)

can you make it stay there ? so that we can resume music again from just notification pull down instead of going back to music app :D
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Possibly but later than v1.0.0 - right now I just want to get it into a state to be released so I can then send it to mikrosmile so he can work his magic :)
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Lol, I broke framework :laugh:

Don't worry, already fixed it. My part is nearly complete, just got keyboard vibration to fix now and add option for no arrows keyboard (should be done within the next hour) then I send it to mikrosmile who has a few ideas ;)
[HTC Sensation] chc31:
Awesome, im excited! I get my phone back on tuesday, hopefully this would be ready then for my reuniting moment hahaha

btw, on the Venom ROM, it said it "added compatibility" with the Virtuous skins, available in the play store. Are they not naturally compatible, or is this rom compatible with them?

Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] sorceforge:
Well... As I tested in SmartDroid Four Rom, there was no compatibility issue.. I bought all of their skins, and they worked well.
[HTC Sensation] chc31:
Thank you for confirming that! Im also excited about using the holo light. I wanted the sense to have a nova like interface and still be able to use the sense widgets. :D This does just that!
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Yep :)

Edit: that was a yep to the virtuous compatability not the time indication, for obvious reasons (namely we dont know when its going to be done ourselves, we want to try and put some new stuff never seen before in) we wont give ETA's.
[HTC Sensation] mikrosmile:
Wifi HotSpot working :)
[HTC Sensation] chc31:
Out of curiosity, will this contain your own tweaks, the one you made, "Dark Forest Tweaks"? I love the features in that!
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
It won't contain tweaks app but maybe something else :)
[HTC Sensation] mjavaid:
Hey. When r u coming out with the new release for this ?
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
When its ready
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Expanding on this - I don't know when its going to be ready because it depends on when we can work on it for example just today I had a total of 5 tests (1 core maths. 1 decision maths, 2 physics and a psychology - one of the physics tests was done in lunchtime) so I have been very busy lately and I have to carefully manage my time otherwise I end up not doing things I should have done.

What I can tell you is that it is fairly close to release, the only "bug" I know of is locations keeps force closing and I hope to fix this over the weekend. Also it depends on when mikrosmile has finished implementing something but we are hoping to release before Christmas, can't be more specific than that at the moment, sorry.
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Hey guys, its new ROM time, I'm probably going to ask a moderator to close this thread at some point because this ROM is obsolete and wont be updated anymore due to the new DarkSense ROM :)

[HTC Sensation] eterno13:

[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
I suggest superwipe and reflash to fix that because you mentioned you didn't full wipe?
[HTC Sensation] Gelunox:
superwipe fixed, lost all my settings tho :/
[HTC Sensation] timothio:
Hows the battery life???
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
You joking man? You can't tell battery life after what, me releasing it between 4-7 hours ago, takes at least 2 cycles for it to stabalize out.

Battery life will be very similar to other sense 4 ROM's.

All this crap about battery life annoys me because we as ROM makers/chefs/devs/whatever do not do anything that impacts battery life. This is why I don't like it when someone goes "oh your ROM is crap on battery" it is mainly down to how you use the phone to what battery you get and if it sucks, look for rouge processes/services that are causing the drain.

Probably the only thing capable of affecting the battery life is the kernel as most/all of the code for battery is there.

Rant over, sorry guys :P

Good afternoon! Excellent ROM! I have a small problem why that when I choose at installation in Aroma Installer choose Stock of % of Battery choice when loading ROM I receive usual Stock Battery
[HTC Sensation] FrostBlooD:
I've been a loyal DarkForest ROM fan and this is my first time to transfer to Sense 4.0! Really really great ROM! Very fast and stable, never tried any forced close ever. I have got to say that Sense 4.0 is one beautiful UI and is very far from the previous version in terms of speed, eye candy, and usability.

One thing I've noticed though in this ROM is that pressing the search button doesn't launch the search bar but instead, it opens the multi-app drawer. Some apps like Play Book and Play Movies can't access the net. Lastly, I can't open my AVI video using Play Movies. It was playable on the previous version. Arrows on the keyboard appear most of the time, even though i chose to disable it in Aroma installer. Also as stated above, I also can't seem to have the %battery.

Edit: didn't noticed Beta 2 was out already. lol im downloading now, hopefully some of these problems are fixed. :D
