Camera won't record Video, I press the red record button and nothing happens. Doesn't matter if I try 720P or 480P, still won't work. Everything else seems to work great
[HTC Sensation] namtrac:
How can we check current firmware version?
[HTC Sensation] Superpiper1972:
Camera bug is caused by you flashing different kernel.

Hi, thought this rom is "tripNfree" :) But when you boot the first time it shows the pattern unlock which trip included time ago, I think as copy protection. Does CM realy implement this??? Or am I wrong? Thanks
[HTC Sensation] invisiblewave:
Or put another way: You really decide which rom to run based on its screen-off animation???:eek:
[HTC Sensation] shahkam:
Yes sir it does its just i hate semi functional things ...

Feel free to go to your original sense rom. Everything is functional :)
[HTC Sensation] antijesse:
The most important feature of a ROM to you is the screen off feature?

I bet you love Beats.

No but i really like it ... And as i said i hate semi functional stuff lol and no i hate beats !

I'm using small font size. Sometimes app icons in app drawer become pushed up. It's like the lower row is missing.
[HTC Sensation] invisiblewave:
Let us know when you come across a 100% functional, bug-free rom! I've had a smartphone of one flavour or another for about 10 years and I've yet to find one that's 100%. I'm using CM9 because of the bluetooth bugs in the stock Sense rom.
[HTC Sensation] Rusty!:
Well in that case, disable the screen off animation (it's just a tickbox) and it wont annoy you.
[HTC Sensation] James1o1o:
Since the OP seems to have abandoned the thread, would anyone object to using a page on my blog as a tracker for bugs? If you could say PM me any bugs and any that are fixed, I would keep the page updated so that we could see what needs fixed and what doesn't?
[HTC Sensation] Superpiper1972:
The mods should lock the thread and a new one started by a different sponsor imho.

Most bugs for Pyramid get worked out in OpenSensation first before being pushed to Cyanogen.

I'm going to try to get the unified kernel working on pyramid soon, that should help some.

Is anyone's Proximity sensor acting strange? it doesnt work during calls sometimes and i cant get any proximity screen wake apps to work, anyone esle having this problem?

Just because you don't "see" any bugs doesn't mean there isn't any.

I found one on VI, when you rotate your screen while in the extra setting toggles, it causes a crash.

:)
[HTC Sensation] OllieArmageddon:
Moved to OpenSensation, it has it included and its based off Cm9 nightlies, so its just a day behind on updates, you get the benefit of a few things being "hacked" to work too, but I will still keep up to date with this forum and post problems if I find needs be :)
[HTC Sensation] shahkam:
It doesn't crash for me :o meh anyways can we get over this ? Everybody is on me lol because i said that i like crt animations ....

[HTC Sensation] blahbl4hblah:
No because you want it to be functional when it already is but your too picky
[HTC Sensation] shahkam:
Im not picky god i loved this rom and still do its just that screen off animation was bugging me over the time but meh im running it right now and no complaints lets not make this thread a flame war i apologize if anyone has been/felt insulted.

Thanks and have a good day.

Facebook app always caused a ludicrous amount of drain for me. On any rom, really. Even with windows mobile. But I don't have a facebook anymore so I uninstalled it. But you can just use the browser to access facebook. You can also turn off notifications and that will really help battery drain.
[HTC Sensation] g3n3ral:
is there such us OTA update for cm9 so you don't flash rom every time they update
[HTC Sensation] blahbl4hblah:
Yeah use rom manager and have clockworkmod recovery installed

My apologies everyone.

I have some RL issues of my own, but I finally got around to contacting an admin.

Again, sorry everyone.

Hi,

Yesterday I flashed this rom and it works marvelous! But I have problem with google PLAY store. I can't download apps that I bought - I can buy it again. What has happened and what can I do to make my apps (that I have paid for) avaible again?

Which kernel works on CM9?
[HTC Sensation] Ultramanoid:
Well then, aNYthing goes !
[HTC Sensation] Gtj94:
You'd do aNYthing to pull a puntastic comment like that wouldn't you.
[HTC Sensation] Rusty!:
Going to sound silly, but you have the right Google account?
[HTC Sensation] raggatokan:
Installing app from www version of play store did the trick ;)

Yes, I have only one google account (callendar, contacts etc are syncinng fine).

Which kernel works on CM9?
[HTC Sensation] Kevin001111:
Is CM9 noticeably faster now that the Linaro optimization's have been merged? haven't heard anyone talking about speed improvements in the thread..
[HTC Sensation] raggatokan:
I don't think that linaro code was implemented already. We have to wait some time for it IMHO.

[HTC Sensation] raggatokan:
There's no word about linaro.
[HTC Sensation] Rusty!:
The Linaro toolchain hasn't been merged, so it's not being built with it. If you want that, you'll have to pick it and built with it yourself (I have been).
[HTC Sensation] irrelephant:
Only some parts of Linaro have been merged... Other parts have to be modified to work as they are causing problems.

Nope.

Doesn't work on my phone... Just tried on 06/15 nightly

Yes

Pyramid can record 1080p and can play them.

1080p recording has been disabled in official cm repos as it requires a hack to make it work.

Bluetooth Battery updates?

I haven't seen anyone mention it in a while, but it's a big bug for me that the Bluetooth being activated causes such serious battery drain.

I'm using tasker to automate my Bluetooth somewhat for now as a workaround, but would really love to see a true fix. Has anyone heard anything or an ETA on when this might be addresses?

I'd love to be able to keep my bluetooth on again...
[HTC Sensation] Vorbeth:
Flash TamCores kernel or OpenSensation, already fixed.

Just ironing out a few more bugs with BT before I push the fix to gerrit.

Its also ahead of cm9 for pyramid specific fixes :)

Ok you are on wrong thread. anyway the problem you are having with bootloop maybe related to kernel. try flash Faux's latest kernel V5b3 and then flash tamcore latest kernel on top and it will boot.

Installed a week ago and all was well. Now, can rarely get a data signal. Instead, 3G icon will flash and then disappear and repeat this about every 20 seconds. Rarely recently....very rarely will it stay on 3G and be usable.

Again, this issue started up very recently...in the last 36 hours.

Any suggestions?

No mobile data on 6/17 build anyone getting this o well Im done with aosp for now back to ****ty sense.
[HTC Sensation] kushXmaster:
I'm not sure if this rom uses the adreno 2.18 drivers but some people said those drivers caused graphical glitches like you have. Haven't had them myself. Maybe you can try the flashing different drivers. Although I am not sure if they are sense only.

Weird! My wife was too fed up with no data so I could not wait and troubleshoot so I restored her previous rom backup and now data is working fine!

Will give cyanogenmod another go in the future.

Its cm9 nightlies I have goo manager installed and I downloaded it from that. I tried legends aosp and the data did the same. And 6/15/ build works flawless gonna restore that for now.... Post edit gonna download the 6/17 build from my lappy maybe cuz I downloaded from phone something got screwed up
[HTC Sensation] idtheftvictim:
Internal Storage?

Hey guys,

I have been using CM9 nightly's since they first became official. I have recently been trying to figure out how to access my internal 8gb drive. Currently it seems the rom and everything is running off of external 16gb SD card i have.

I have been using CM7/cm9 forever, and there was always a way to access the internal memory, even on my wife's t-mobile sgs2 I can access her internal storage.

Is there a way to access this on the sensation running nightly builds?

Thanks!

P.S. I did do a search, and either I SUCK at searching, or this hasn't been covered yet.
[HTC Sensation] Rusty!:
I think you might be confused, the Sensation doesn't have any internal SD card.

All it's internal storage is for /data
[HTC Sensation] kboeckx:
Mmh, the SD card is inserted IN the phone so it's internal storage ;)

What you mean is that /data is located on the internal flash storage that came with your phone. You can't remove that flash part without destroing your phone :rolleyes:

The difference is internal "flash" <-> internal SD "card".

External storage would be (if it's supported by the kernel) an OTG.
[HTC Sensation] idtheftvictim:
So this phone doesn't have 8gig internal/on board memory?

WOW, I didn't realize this. I can't beleive I traded my wife my sgs2 for this thing!

LOL.

So there is no internal sd card, just the external sd card that you put in the micro-sd slot?

Forgive me for being so stupid! I just didn't realize this until right now. I could've sworn that this phone had onboard 8gb like the sgs2.

Thanks for answering my stupid question Rusty!
[HTC Sensation] invisiblewave:
You're better off with external storage for relatively volatile data. When the memory eventually starts going bad, all you need do is buy a new sd card rather than throw the phone away. Also means you can take advantage of improvements in memory technology. The Sensation is a much better phone than the SII, imho.
[HTC Sensation] Vorbeth:
No, it has a 1 gb /data partition but no internal memory like Samsung phones.
[HTC Sensation] idtheftvictim:
OK, well thank you for telling me. I have been enjoying the sensation, don't get me wrong. Been using it for over a month now, and cm9 has greatly improved this phone.

Now, I got another question. For some reason my boot animation is the old xm9 one, it isnt CID. I don't get it, I am running today's build...tried replacing the boot animation.zip manually also, and nothing...any advise?

Can I format /system and reflash rom, maybe then it will take?
[HTC Sensation] blahbl4hblah:
It shouldn't matter. Try to open the boot animation zip in the one your about to flash and see if it's Cid

Sent from my Sensation
[HTC Sensation] irrelephant:
Try a clean install. Wipe all except sdcard and flash.
[HTC Sensation] invisiblewave:
Take a look in /data/local and make sure you don't have one in there. Formatting the system partition is unlikely to help. And wiping is a far too heavy-handed solution!
[HTC Sensation] idtheftvictim:
I opened the bootanimation.zip included in the nightly, and it is CID, so I don't get it. Then on my phone, I went to /system/media and opened the ZIP file, and it too was CID. So now I am REALLY confused. If the bootanimation.zip that I have on my phone is CID, then why isn't my bootanimation when I turn my phone on CID. LOL

Makes absolutely no sense.
[HTC Sensation] invisiblewave:
Yes it does, if you have one in /data/local that's overriding it. The old one's way better anyway! That robot thing looks cheesy.
[HTC Sensation] idtheftvictim:
Yeah, I didn't figure I needed to do a complete wipe, and honestly even if I did...it wouldn't be worth it for just a bootanimation. :-)

However, I did check /data/local and that was were the old cm9 bootanimation is, so I replaced it with the new CID bootanimation.zip and rebooted, and BOOM there is CID.

Nice to see the new bootanimation. :-)

Thanks everyone for helping me with my stupid problems.
[HTC Sensation] invisiblewave:
You didn't need to replace it, just delete it, then it defaults to the one in /system. Some people seem to just love to go through the pain associated with wiping! Masochists!
[HTC Sensation] irrelephant:
Hey I'm emo! get it right! Jk... I had the same problem. So I did a clean install and it was fixed, but glad to hear you got it sorted a much easier way!
[HTC Sensation] invisiblewave:
Understanding and fixing is always better than wiping!
[HTC Sensation] bord1er:

Patch Set 1:

I was not able to reproduce the issue after a few dozen runs of Vlingo, but it seems like this method is overly complex, and this fix is just band-aiding over the real problem (probably a race condition). The audio switch happens after VR to play back a sound, but PCM_PLAY isn't set so it falls thru. Need to investigate further.

Also, it may be possible to still hit the HANDSET case when it's not wanted. I'm going to hack on this more tonight.

Patch Set 1:

I was using this hack recently, it seems to fix the post-voice search handset routing. While this might be a bandaid over the real problem, it seems to work well enough for now.

[HTC Sensation] adiallo77:
Can anyone advice me on what kernel to use if I want good battery life?
[HTC Sensation] blahbl4hblah:
bricked kernel which was recently released has been always good, just be sure the rom your using is official cm nightly.
[HTC Sensation] adiallo77:
What would be good settings in the bricked kernel for maximum battery use and conservation?
[HTC Sensation] Quantum_Sensation:
The Kernel come in together with the ROM, why still want to use the other one? I thought the kernel in the ROM also the bricked?
[HTC Sensation] aimcr7:
you are completely wrong, The kernel come with the rom is official CM9 kernel, and bricked is another kernel from show-p1984.

damn the newest nightly isn't even booting...sheesh lol
[HTC Sensation] blast1987:
The newest nightly is working good for me :) i'm on 18/06

btw anyone knows how can i get usb tethering working ?

I don't know which driver i need to install...

When i connect the device via usb tethering , windows fails to install the driver, even if i search inside the HTC driver directory, i tried with some generic android usb drivers also.

I'm on win 7 64 bit
[HTC Sensation] Rusty!:
This driver: http://dl3.htc.com/application\HTC_USB_Tethering_Driver.exe
[HTC Sensation] blast1987:
i already tried this one.... not working for me ... :(
[HTC Sensation] Rusty!:
Works for me on Win 7 x64.

Or just use Ubuntu, tethering should work natively ;)
[HTC Sensation] blast1987:
i can't install ubuntu on this pc :D i'm at work.

btw how you installed this driver? just double cliccked on the .exe?

When i try to run it nothing happens.... and if i try to search again for a driver it fails to install it...
[HTC Sensation] Rusty!:
Yeah I've installed it, hence it working for me ;)

A setup wizard should appear when you run it.
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
Maybe you need to run it as admin
[HTC Sensation] blast1987:
Um .. no wizard setup appears when i run it.. i tried as administrator also.. nothing happens -.-
[HTC Sensation] Rusty!:
I didn't, but it UAC popped up after a clicking next a couple of times.

Maybe this will help, it appeared in temp after running it. One of the .exe's might install it
[HTC Sensation] blast1987:
i had to install the driver manually from the .inf.. now "HTC Remote NDIS based device" is installed but it is saying "unable to start the device. (code 10)" ... sigh -_-
[HTC Sensation] Rusty!:
That's what mine says when tethering isn't enabled
[HTC Sensation] blast1987:
Now it works, for some odd reason win7 was detecting the adb interface as "usb storage" , i had to update the drivers for that also

[HTC Sensation] Rusty!:
Did you remove thermald and mpdecision?
[HTC Sensation] blahbl4hblah:
To my understanding it shouldn't matter since TamCore's kernel removes those 3 files if they exist
[HTC Sensation] Bastaerd:
Please post the problem and a logcat in the designated thread. Not here since this is about CM9.
[HTC Sensation] TamCore:
I'll revert the bt "fix" with the next build. I think a wakelock is better than a crappy bluetooth.

It only has problems with thermald.

Nope. If my initscript detects thermald it disables kernels built-in thermal monitoring. With next build I change it a bit because the current method won't work for all users (dunno why). Built-in thermal monitoring will be disabled by default and if thermald is not present, it will be enabled. (In theory.)

Yes, sir!

Anyone flash build 19 over the top sometimes I can and sometimes I cant would hate to wipe everything might just stick with 6/18 build and wait for an RC

Anyone try this yet to see if the Linaro bits drastically improve performance? I'm thinking of giving it a try for $#!+$ and giggles to see what we can expect. Perhaps I'll run some benchmarks tonight on the nightly builds and flash the Euroskank build tomorrow.
[HTC Sensation] Mohanned85:
This Rom is getting more stable with every build. Thanks guys :)

I’m running it right now and it seems noticeably faster. You can see the difference when you open and close applications and app draw and most of all with my animation I’m using.

[HTC Sensation] sshede:
Honestly, I believe this is a placebo. I flashed it and see no real difference other than what I was hoping to see. Also, Music skips frequently while the screen is on when using this build. Not sure if it's just an isolated case, but as soon as the screen's on, audio cuts out for a split second every 3 to 15 seconds.

cyanogenmod cleaned the code so well that implementing linaro will have no diference
