This is your phone reclaiming ram from inactive apps, if you start other apps it will close background ones. It's normal.
[HTC Sensation] Arie-:
Possibly yes, you could try improving the RAM management on your phone by using the V6 Super Charger.
[HTC Sensation] manuelkuhs:
Just installed this ROM 2 days ago and it's the best Sensation ROM I've tried yet (and I've been trying a new one every few weeks for the past year!) - although I have only been running it 2 days.

Anywho, I noticed I've 531MB free System ROM - seems like a waste of ROM to me, especially 'cos I have to move many apps to SD because I easily run out of Internal ROM (usually I've >80 apps including large games). I know I can move apps into system ROM with Titanium, but then I'd have to manually upgrade them and I think I read somewhere that their RAM usage won't be limited as carefully.

So my question is,

Is it possible to reduce the size of the System ROM partition and make the user-accessible partition larger?

---------- Post added at 02:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:04 PM ----------

What are people's experiences using V6 for this ROM? Is it worth it or not necessary?
[HTC Sensation] Arie-:
It's never necessary, but in my experience it reduces launcher/widget redraws and keeps applications longer in memory. It improves my phone experience.
[HTC Sensation] alpha_dro:
Has anyone had trouble connecting to wifi after waking the phone from sleep? I usually leave wifi on and check the setting to turn off automatically when sleeping. However, when I turn the screen on the wifi won't connect to my network even though wifi is on. I need to turn it off and then turn it back on in order for it to connect. I haven't flashed anything unusual that would cause this. The only think I can think of is a GPSfix zip that I flash that can be found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1264427

Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
I've gone throught the exact same thoughts when coming from the HD2 where repartitioning internal memory was sth you did easily and had to do sometimes when changing ROM.

But i've never found any clues on how to do it without bricking the phone, and I liked my Sensation too much to just risk exploring this any further, so I ended up using Link2SD... which I liked quite a lot as I like the way it works,

Hey guys something I ran into: the launcher. I loved apex, worked nice, good to configure. But then last weeks play store sale I ran into Nova. I'm experiencing Nova being more responsive and smooth. I have to say, I currently am missing one small thing that was in Apex which I cannot do in Nova, but am sticking with Nova for now.

Ps. Nova even knows how to import Apex settings partially.

reboots

im experiencing random mini reboots. (phone doesn't completely power off but does reboot) i'm using faux 10bu kernel with aggressive memory settings.over 200 apps (yes im an app whore) no swap, zram, or s2w. not using any task killers. (i was using v6 but reinstalled rom fresh without it to rule it out) attached is one of the last kmsg's. not sure how to read it. any help would be great!
[HTC Sensation] Iosif1985:
I am not experiencing any reboots but from time to time my phone unlocks itself in the pocket :) I am using Apex and Widget Locker and I disabled any interaction from the Locker even the status bar. The only things that can be used are the 4 shortcuts from the widget and the unlock option. Strange behavior.

thank you.

try settings, more, tethering & portable hotspot, select usb tethering.. that works for me idk about in Mac osx though

[HTC Sensation] Arie-:
Indeed, that's where you set it up on your phone. You possibly need additional drivers for your OS to make it work. Win7 recognizes this out of the box, but I can imagine you need drivers for earlier Windows versions. Have you tried looking at the HTC website for drivers?
[HTC Sensation] Natural_born_chilla:
I am getting a lot of Hot Reboots when I'm travelling and the connection quality changes a lot while doing things (e.g. surfing). Other than that still best ROM.

Love CMX, too, but getting many many reboots.
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
Ever tried to get behind as to why ? If you get reboots on different ROMs, that pretty much leaves your device's hardware ... are you undervolting ?

JP.
[HTC Sensation] Natural_born_chilla:
No, no undervolting. Tried different kernels, different settings but I really don't like the idea of installing app per app to check, if it's a specific app. Furthermore, rebooting seems really random most of the times. Interesting thing I learned today: if I unlock after reboot very fast and enter PIN fast, too, there's a high chance it will reboot again. Annoying.

Perhaps should check last_kmsg, but then again, I really know, what do avoid: doing many things when travelling, fast PIN entering on startup, ...

Could this really be hardware? Never/very rarely happened on CM7 and VI...
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
Good question, but similar behaviour on very different ROMs, leaves pretty little in commun except hardware ...

Maybe also sth I always tend to forget as I never had the issue on my sensation, but there is this thing with the battery not sitting tight which can be cured by inserting a piece a business card (or whatever) between the battery and the body so it gets firmly pressed ahainst the contacts.

Could explain why it happens when you're a little more "excited" with your device ;)

JP.
[HTC Sensation] Natural_born_chilla:
Just reinstalled your last kernel to be 100% safe (no UV, all std. but some minor things (1.18GHz max, e.g.))... I'm not really pissed by the reboots, so, yeah ... After changing DPI to around 184 my Sensation is still hot! Like HOX, SIII and Nexus very much, but no real reason to update - even if I tell myself to! :confused: :laugh:

Thx for the fast reply. I really rule out the contact thing (read it here earlier) because my Anker sits firmly and tight.
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
I get your point, but still a pitty if all is great except reboots sometimes :(

As for the device update, the S3 is pretty much top notch (I just had to upgrade, no real reason, just had to :D)

But to be honest, the Sensation still feels pretty much great even compared to the S3, with maybe one exception, the display ;)

So if you can refrain yourself from updating, I'd say that objectively it is the right decision since it's really too soon to consider putting away the Sensation just yet. But I'm most definately the wrong guy to give this advice considering I did it :D

[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
Sorry, missed your post :(

When you say you have mini reboots, do you mean like hot reboots ?

I don't know if those generate anything in kmsg, since a hotreboot will only restart Android (dalvik) but but not Linux, thus not kernel... couldn't see anything special in your kmsg.

Can you maybe post a logcat, or even better, use The Untouchable's reporting tool right after encountring such a reboot ? (link here)

JP.
[HTC Sensation] smuvman:
If it happens again I will use that tool. And yes it's hot reboots. I can be on a call phone will black out then come back on and my phone call will resume lol I think I may have found my culprit but not sure. May have been due to reinstalling apps directly to sdcard via titanium backup. Will report if I get same issue again. Thanks

[HTC Sensation] boomboomer:
The only hot reboots I've had with this ROM were entirely due to apps, I'm undervolting by 9% with a max frequency of 1Ghz so the battery lasts two days.

This exact thing happens to me all the time on CM10 Kang. I believe it's happened only once with me on HNS though. Maybe you want to remove battery and put it back in firmly to make sure you have strong contact to the phone?

Lock Screen options?

Hi all,

I actually quite like the default lock screen, except I'd like to add two shortcuts (phone and messages). Anyone know a good way to do this?

I looked at downloading Go Locker, but unless you want to use Go Launcher (I don't), you have to pay for it...
[HTC Sensation] Iosif1985:
Take a look at WidgetLocker, is not free but I have 4 shortcuts on it + the unlock one, I tried to add more but then I saw some issues with it.

[HTC Sensation] Arie-:
Connect phone to PC with USB cable

system settings -> more -> tethering & portable hotspot -> usb tethering

I don't know if you have to install drivers or your OS recognises a modem device and carries the drivers itself. Possibly you might need HTC PC drivers, not sure on that.
[HTC Sensation] rawdealer:
Hmmmmm my GF also complaining about reboots. She has few reboots per day. Otherwise she's very happy with this ROM.

Thanks guys :)))
[HTC Sensation] alphaz1:
Thanks but that's USB tethering, to connect laptop through phone's internet.

I want to do the other way round, reverse-tethering to connect phone through a pc's internet.
[HTC Sensation] Arie-:
I'm wondering whether this is default HTC functionality, I think I've used this before but am not sure. Using google the first two results suggest it is possible.

Reboots and power downs are indeed annoying, but in my experience this is not because of a ROM, but rather the battery. Since I have my Anker I've never experienced a random crash again. A few things you could try:

Is your battery set tight in your case? You could try putting a bit of paper between the battery and your phone tightening the connection between the battery and the points of contact

Clean the battery contacts

Try another battery

Do you happen to know what file you changed to prevent these FC's? I've got no clue on what files currently are on my ROM from which HNS versions, it's a kinda melting pot because of the FM Radio fixes I was trying. I still experience these occasionally (Alarm Clock Plus eg,) and think it might be the ROM causing this.
[HTC Sensation] alphaz1:
I installed HNS v3.5, then installed Music and MMS from the Addon v2.2. Then I installed Beats and Beats library. But whenever I try to open Music app, it FC every time. Uninstalled DSP manager and still have FC Music. Anyone have solution to FC Music issue?
[HTC Sensation] boomboomer:
Having just popped over to Bruce's JB ROM, which is very nearly a daily, I'm back again as this ROM has everything working - the slight improvements from JB aren't worth the hardware problems still present.

Two questions for spider, JB seems to handle the button lights better than GB or ICS - switching them off after a few seconds and dimming them with the auto brightness, or is that a kernel function?

Also, Bruce has a script in init.d by which you can change options for swipe to wake, governor etc. Could this be an option in ICS?

Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] wlteh:
The dimming of button lights is a kernel function and you can do it with a script to dim it. Same goes with the options for sweep2wake and governor. They're all controlled by the kernel, not the ROM.
[HTC Sensation] boomboomer:
Thanks for the quick reply, I'll go look in Sebastian's thread - if his kernel can't do it then I can live without them, two days battery life is more important!

Loving your Quad Lock, good work!

Any chance you could set the Phone shortcut to use the default calling app instead of the stock one? I use exDialer and have it as default, but the Quad Lock shortcut still opens the stock one...

[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
Hmm ... well that part I didn't actually do, that's Socali's work, I just themed it to fit HNS looks...

Since it's nothing I know where to look for off hand, I'd take a little time, and I'm unfortunately a little short of it lately, so can't promise anything :(

JP.
[HTC Sensation] Splder:
its down to one of the lib file missing but im not sure what one it is
[HTC Sensation] Arie-:
Have you tried without trying beats. You won't miss anything if you turn to DSP instead of Beats. My guess it would be Beats causing the Music Player FC.

Hmm bummer, I'm not feeling like messing with all the libs again as I'm extremely satisfied at the moment with my ROM. Possibly also because I decided to drop APEX and turn to NOVA, which is way more responsive. It's a gut feeling but I'm pretty sure I have less widget redraws and other things that just makes it feel a lot quicker.
[HTC Sensation] manuelkuhs:
Also, I know this might be asking a lot in which case just ignore this, but I do prefer the original HNS B&W look... any chance of making a Quad Lock version keeping the original theme? I know you're busy so I'd totally understand if it's too much time for you!
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
No problem asking ;) Well in essence I just changed 2 things (if I remember well) :

- a few images which didn't look right (probably due to batch conversion)

- background for popups in very dark grey instead of black

That should be all... But changing that back is a bit of work (images is easy, just replacing them in the .apk), but the colors need decompiling, changing (finding the right spot) and recompiling.

What exactly bothers you compared to stock HNS theme ?

JP.
[HTC Sensation] manuelkuhs:
I don't really like the very dark grey for popups. I preferred the black. Also, tabs look a bit strange. Black at the top, gray at the bottom - see attached image. The second is a bit of a bigger issue because it looks a bit broken.

But again, don't bother if it's a lot of work. Thanks for replying by the way!
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
For the tabs, I can't remember if I changed that bitmap, is it really looking different in stock HNS ? Shouldn't be a biggie, though.

For the popups, well it's a little work ... except if I can replace the file without impact on quad-lock, will have to check, seems like ages ago when I made this :D

I prefered to change it because in some circumstances (black background app) it looked strange as you couldn't see where the popup started / ended...

Let me have a look ;)

[HTC Sensation] manuelkuhs:
Yeah it looks wayyy different than stock B&W, which is completely black (no grey).

Lol you're right the pure black was a bit difficult on black background, it grew on me though! Personally the tabs thing is a far bigger issue since the tabs thing looks bad (IMO), whereas the grey on popups is a nice and professional looking style but just not my favourite :)
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
I've revisited the Quadlock using 100% of HNS bitmaps, and the tabs are restored.

The HNS bitmaps version is added to my original post.

By the way, you're lucky, the pop-up background seems to be black as well, so that was just a bitmap, thought it was a color setting in the framwork ;)

A few apps have pop up function, I've tried go sms, sms popup, handcet and chompsms. But the AOSP 4.1.1 MMS has the best integration, imho. Plus it has the native AOSP look that blends well with HNS. Not a biggie though.

You did delete the firmware file from the root of your sd card before you tried to boot the new ROM right? Otherwise you'll just keep going around the hboot loop indefinitely.
[HTC Sensation] metropical:
I did.

Now stuck in cycle Fastboot/Hboot with HBOOT saying "no image or wrong image" to PG58IMG.zip (33.3 universal radio)

But if it flashed 3.33, it was awful fast.

flashed the ROM and Bricked 3 kernel.

Seems to have flashed Bricked OK and the ROM looks different so I assume HNS.

But when I pull down Notification bar, "Sorry try again". It would appear my radio is in between..........

No response from WiFi or Network.

Trying firmware again in HBOOT. seems to be doing it's thing.

Removed PG58IMG.zip

Nope. Won't let me USB mount either.

Now shows Broadband version: 11.76A.3504.00U_11.24A.3504.31_M

which is different from my previous seen in my sig.

I stepped back to Open Sense and old radio/firmware.

When I have more info to allow a flash that works, I'll try again.

I think TWRP is the problem.

TWRP wouldn't restore from it's own back-up either, of the previous install of Open Sensation.

radio firmware won't flash

I had wrong path for TWRP. Should be TWRP/BACKUPS/serial. Full wipe then restored just fine.

But getting back to HNS. I'd like to try this ROM next.

Can flash HNS with TWRP or is 4ext the only way to flash?

What suggestions to get the radio firmware to flash? Universal 3.33.
[HTC Sensation] boomboomer:
Make sure you are s-off, read and follow all the instructions in the universal firmware thread, install 4ext and flash this ROM following all the advice in the OP. If you try doing things differently then you'll encounter problems that no-one else has.

Problems with the firmware should be asked in that thread, Kohr-Ah is very patient and helpful to those using his work.
[HTC Sensation] metropical:
I am S-Off.

I do have 4ext but I guess that TWRP2 has "blown" it out, as when I try to reboot recovery with 4ext, TWRP2 comes up.

For HNS, would I flash universal 33 radio firmware first, then 4ext, then HNS ROM and kernel from 4ext?

Is there a preferred kernel for HNS? I'm using Bricked 3 with OS (not that I fully understand the kernel) and that is working well.

I assume that a backup of HNS with 4ext (if I decide to do so) is just as good as what I got from TWRP2 with OS?

Everything came back as I had it, once I used the correct path to the bu for restore.
