No problem here with HTC Music Player. The only thing i have noticed is that after a sound notification (sms, email..) while listening music, the music volume go up. Maybe a Beats bug?
[HTC Sensation] vernon092487:
+1 to this..i just noticed it today..
[HTC Sensation] dajogejr:
I remove the HTC Music App...sorry. I use Google Music and Pandora on mine...

Is it possible the user has a failing SD card?

I will say I was a die hard ARHD guy. And nothing against his ROMs, they are excellent, but this ROM has me sold. So much so I put it on my G/F's over the weekend.

Battery Life is unreal. It's a perfect ROM.

Steve, either I've missed it or it hasn't been addressed yet. The Data shuts off on every ICS ROM from 12 midnight to 6AM I believe. There are a few posts about what needs to be changed to allow always on Data. Any plans to release this in a flashable zip?

Thank you again...
[HTC Sensation] masondoctorjt:
Not that I've noticed. Thanks for the great ROM. Also, I like your suggestions for the next build. I never tried htc reader, and would like to. I, like others, can get rid of my unwanted stuff:)
[HTC Sensation] juancubo:
Working Perfect

I have been in this ROM since the First Day. It is perfect so far. Only thing missing for me, is the OC Daemon (for those in SebastianFM kernel), but I installed the Daemon Controller and the Andrev_OC and my battery is even better.

I have been in Coredroid for a while (nice ROM and developers) but seems that this will be my daily driver.

The AROMA installer options would be nice, but really, I usually don't take nothing out of it (only the t-mobile apps, that are already out).

Steve, only one question, did you use the init.d script support from the RAMdisk boot.img (showp method) or from init boot scripts (mike's method)?

Just to know if I will loose init.d support when flashing kernels.

Thanks for your work and support!

No problems for me with the HTC music.... only tested one song, but no problem at all.

Please add one more step to be certain ...

0. Copy clockworkmod to pc.....FORMAT SD, return clockworkmod to SD...
[HTC Sensation] zim2dive:
This ROM has great/low IDLE power usage... I'm still at 32% after 2d10h.

I fully confess, I've done almost nothing (23 min screen time) with the phone during that period (it was a holiday weekend, and the wife had me 100% on house projects).. but still that's some very nice IDLE time. Its nice to be able to go 2-3 days between charges.

FWIW, this is on 2.0, with stock kernel.
[HTC Sensation] brett_c:
No music player pauses for me either, and i listen for 2 hours per day in the car going to work. I did notice music playback doesn't pause when gps navigation instructions are spoken, not sure if this is a bug or just an intentional change of behavior.
[HTC Sensation] jackyaway:
HTC Facebook chat widget

The HTC Facebook chat widget doesn't works. I think because there isn't the FB chat application.
[HTC Sensation] rorycs:
Already done.... Actually I copied the entire SD to the PC and reformatted the SD with 4EXT.
[HTC Sensation] Steve0007:
Hi rorycs, since you are the only one with this pb I would think it comes from something app/mods you install. I was going to suggest also formatting the SD card, but you have already tried...

Sent from my boosted Sensation with Elegancia Rom :-)
[HTC Sensation] rorycs:
Hey Steve, thanks for keeping up with this! I wiped cache and dalvik, and also have fixed permissions. It's settling in now so I'll see if this helped soon. If not, I guess I'll reflash the whole thing. The did add the TMOUS apps from the flashables you provided - other than that there were only standard installs of market apps. Perhaps it is best to flash and then test after each app install.... LOL... just a process!
[HTC Sensation] kingston73:
I know radio and signal is an individual, case by case basis but I just flashed the newest canadian radio (11.69B) with this rom and it is working really well, I'm getting better 4g signal than I did with the radio in the TMOUS firmware.

It looks like it's already been answered but I haven't had any issue with music playback.
[HTC Sensation] dublinz:
Did you flashed matched RIL ?
[HTC Sensation] kingston73:
I flashed the entire TmoUS firmware package and then just updated the radio, I left the ril alone so it's the same ril included in that package.
[HTC Sensation] johnson8cyl:
RIL is not included in the firmware package. It's in the rom. There are reports that matching them isn't as important in ics as it was in gb though. I flashed the 11.72 radio with matching ril and dish 2 to see how it goes. I had horrible reception with the 11.69a suggested in the op.
[HTC Sensation] kingston73:
That was kind of the point of my post, for people using the 11.69a radio to maybe try the 11.69b asyou might get better results. For me that one is better than the 11.72 radio
[HTC Sensation] johnson8cyl:
I appreciate the info. I'm going to test this combo out for a few before trying that one out just for fun. Will definately test that one out next. Which sensation do you have? Where are you located?
[HTC Sensation] Lionhardt:
Wow the B radio definitely does work better! I'm located in eastern PA. Website loads seems more responsive and faster but I guess time will tell.
[HTC Sensation] stuart0001:
I was on 2.0 using faux kernel and last night installed 2.1 with included Sebastian kernel.

I'm not sure if it's kernel and/or the rom but either way this version feels quite a bit smoother, snappier and my phone runs a lot cooler, particularly when the screen is on for a while, such as in car. I'm guessing the GPU OC may have been the culprit for the heat.

It's that good that you may have cured my upgradeitus and will be holding off getting the one x as you've give my senny a new lease of life.

Well done team elegancia, this truly is a magical ROM.
[HTC Sensation] Steve0007:
It is missing from the TMOUS RUU, anybody you remember the apk name of this ?
[HTC Sensation] jackyaway:
Comparing with a non-tmous rom, the missed apk is HtcFacebookChat.apk ;)
[HTC Sensation] Catpoule:
HtcFacebookChat.apk and HtcFacebookChatWidget.apk :D
[HTC Sensation] galaxys:
Will also be trying this B, since A kinda suxs here in Vegas!

I'm in ma, south of Boston, and I have the standard tmo 4g sensation.
[HTC Sensation] fmedrano1977:
Did you do anything with the whole DISH 2,DISH 3 update? Our did you just flash the radio?

Swyped on HTC Sensation 4G
[HTC Sensation] iceshark:
I love this rom. The only issue I am having is that when using either stock or preferred Dolphin browser I keep getting resets while on webpages bringing me back to HTC white screen and reboot. Has not been a problem in past. Does not happen all the time but alot. No biggie.

Anyone know why Skyfire has never worked on any GB or ICS rom for a year? Used to really like that full screen browser.
[HTC Sensation] KingP1n:
Steve, maybe u can add as an option the sony exclusive pack made by xxpachaxx thats specific to ICS (bravia engine) for it next update, tnx
[HTC Sensation] johnson8cyl:
Thanks. I'm in fort worth, TX and drive from here to Columbus, OH all week. I'll be trying the b radio out thus week. Right now I have the 11.72 radii with the matching ril and the new dish 2. Doesn't seem to be any better than the 69a so far. We'll see. Thanks again. Ofc I hit your button again :-)
[HTC Sensation] Catpoule:
hi jonhson,

i had same radio as your but i have to ask you what is this dish 2 you are talking about ... don't know what it is.

i flashed radio and matching ril in elagancia v3.8.0 sense 3.6 and that's all.

actually i'm testing the lastest canadia 1.69b ...

can you explain please ? :p
[HTC Sensation] ClydeB1:
Hi Cat, take a look here
[HTC Sensation] GROGG88:
If too much ram is needed then it will kill the Rosie process. Perhaps he could add an init.d script to keep the Rosie in memory or have it as an option...
[HTC Sensation] Wagedroid:
Steve this is all your fault!. I was on xda every day. I flashed at least 5 roms a week. Now, ever since I flashed this original release (and updated of course) I have no reason to even be on xda any more. What's the point of looking for something to flash when this is exactly what I wanted for my sensation. The speed, the stability, the battery life, there's no flaw. I blame you. I really appreciate that you even considered releasing for us tmous. Thanks for everything
[HTC Sensation] demonsavatar:
Ha, similar problem here. I haven't even updated to 2.x yet since 1.1.0 is working so well for me and I'm too lazy to do a superwipe. I am basically just looking at this thread once in a while to see if there are any major updates.
[HTC Sensation] Lionhardt:
Think any of the new changes to all the sense 4 roms would work with this? Enhanced Rosie scrolling on RCmix's Rom, enhanced touch sensitivity on various ones, etc.
[HTC Sensation] Catpoule:
well it seems to be a bit complicated ...

So Clyde, do we have to flash dish when flashing radio to obtain best results ? is it for tmous users ?

sorry first time i see this story of dish .... never stop learning as you see. lol
[HTC Sensation] demonsavatar:
I have a question about the stock battery mod that shows percentage.

Why is the percentage not the same as the percentage reported by the Sense lock screen? For example, the lock screen low battery warning tells me 7% remaining while the battery mod says 9%.

The T-mobile "My Device" app is consistent with the percentage reported by Sense.

How is battery % measured?
[HTC Sensation] ClydeB1:
No you don't have to flash it. I also haven't tried it myself and although it seems mainly for TMOUS users, you could always give it a try to see if it makes any difference for you.
[HTC Sensation] kingston73:
I'm still not clear on it myself but I think its mainly for those of us on TmoUS.
[HTC Sensation] juancubo:
Steeve, I have teeter in the 2.1 Rom
[HTC Sensation] WackyJoe:
Kernel?

Hey...does anyone know which 1.6 kernel is in this Tmous build?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1424345

This is the link to his Sensation Kernel but I don't know which one, exactly, is included in with this rom...

I had flashed Faux123's pretty much right after installing this rom and never really had a chance to test it and see for myself the difference.
[HTC Sensation] yuyuchen0204:
base on v1.30.2, because Steve thinks it's smoother and stabler.

btw, Steve, is "Record calls" only for TMOUS users?

I don't find the function:rolleyes:
[HTC Sensation] ClydeB1:
I'm not sure but AFAIK it is one of the Sebastian OC kernels and I know Steve likes 1.30.2 as he feels this is the most stable release with his roms. If you go to Settings/About/Software Information/More you should get the kernel version info.

Edit: Beaten to the punchline :D
[HTC Sensation] Catpoule:
lol no no no i will not . won't flash anything ,any dish of anything :D:D:D:D:D
[HTC Sensation] ClydeB1:
Go on Cat we all know you want to. Denying it won't change things :D
[HTC Sensation] crisisinthecity:
I am using the T-Mobile US firmware and radio. This ROM is perfect. Manually having to install your apps isn't always a bad thing. I've downloaded hundreds of apps in the market in the past and only use about 15-20 of them.

Thanks Steve!
[HTC Sensation] Catpoule:
no no no i'm scared . :mad: :D :cool:
[HTC Sensation] WackyJoe:
Should be kernel based...

Recording calls, as far as I know and someone correct me if I'm wrong, is Kernel Based...so, the kernel has to be able to support it.

The newer and "better" kernels have the ability to allow recording...but you'll need an app like: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...sMSwyLDEsImNvbS5hcHBzdGFyLmNhbGxyZWNvcmRlciJd

Or something similar...there are tons of them out there.

Boot Audio Sound

Thanks guys for the explanation for changing the Boot Animation. I started to use the Root Explorer Method, and placed the one I wanted with audio into the data/local folder with no luck. I did exactly what a few people said here, cuz Tmobile likes to make everything difficult, and placed the one I wanted into system/resources/customization folder, remaned to TMOUS_bootanimation.zip, and everything worked fine.......except i am lost on how to install my Boot Audio Sound.

I put the desired mp.3 audio into a renamed file called android_audio.mp3, like usual, but can't figure out where and what to name it on this T-Mobile ROM. If anyone could help me out that would be great.......

Darren
[HTC Sensation] yuyuchen0204:
Thanks a lot for your answer. I'll try it on my free time:)

Another question I would like to ask you is that don't you have a wrong temperature displaying issue with faux123 kernel?

Temperature of my device is always lower than the room temperature when using this kernel.

I take a look at your signature line and find that you're using faux kernel as well, and would like to ask for your condition because I am always annoying by the issue when using faux kernel.

I want to see if it's just my problem. Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] Lakino:
I took a look inside Elegancia_ICS_TMOUS_V2.1.0.zip and it appears android_audio.mp3 file is located within this folder:

extra\tmous\customize\resource\
[HTC Sensation] ClydeB1:
That deserves your 1st thanks :D
[HTC Sensation] GROGG88:
I don't know if the boot sound is enabled on this rom, but if not then you'll need to modify your /system/customize/cid/default.xml to add the line highlighted in red:

<BootAnimation animation="/system/customize/resource/TMOUS_bootanimation.zip" [color=red]audio="/system/customize/resource/android_audio.mp3"[/color] />
[HTC Sensation] g1user101:
Hey the Rom is perfect and all only one thigh that doesn't work is instagram I try adding a photo from my gallery and it froze
[HTC Sensation] WackyJoe:
Yes indeed it does show lower than room temperature, but I believe it always should...but it was around 80~85F yesterday and the battery temp showed 53F most of the day...it should NOT have been that much of a difference.

I'm really only using it now because it is updated regularly (btw, it is on 7b2 right now, downloaded it but I'm currently testing the 1.6SebastionFM one to see the difference for myself) and because it's proven to me to be a good everyday powersaver.
[HTC Sensation] masondoctorjt:
That is true, but even the stock kernel in ice supports it. The stock gb kernel did not, but for some reason htc added it in the ics kernel.
[HTC Sensation] johnson8cyl:
Well that firmware didn't work for me. My new setup is noticeably better so far. Not sure where manually installing apps came in to play. At any rate, you know you can back them up and copy them into the data/app folder of the rom before you flash it right?
[HTC Sensation] Lionhardt:
Gotta say that I've been using the anthrax kernel on this Rom. The combo is absolutely killer.
[HTC Sensation] heiroglyph:
Very happy user...thanks for the great rom. :)
[HTC Sensation] johnson8cyl:
I agree. This is the best. Love the animations in 2.1.0 Very smooth. Thanks Steve.
[HTC Sensation] Azrel37:
Are there any known disadvantages if I want to flash the latest v3.8 Elegance? I'm definitely loving this Rom, but kind of miss the artwork that is Elegancia 3.6(non-tmous specific). Have to fix dish?
[HTC Sensation] masondoctorjt:
Anyone know why htc took the ability to just click on the location of your appointment in the calendar app, and it open up google maps. In gb you could also just use gps to add your location to the calender.

[HTC Sensation] g1user101:
Which file do I download and how to install?
[HTC Sensation] WackyJoe:
Kernels...kernels...kernels...blah...

Hmm...tried searching for it, maybe I just suck at searching...where is this one?

BTW...tried the 1.6Sebastian kernel, the Overclocked_kernel_v1.30.2_1620_MHz_by_SebastianFM.zip (so that we're on the same page) and it "hiccups"...so not as smooth as Faux123's.

I've almost always used Faux's on Intellidemand, and it does have a slight lag when waking up from "sleep" or whatever you wanna call it...basically out of my pocket when it's been there for a while but no hiccups.

With the Sebastian one, it does...well, at least with OnDemand it did a bit. Forget about PowerSaver, that just sucks...tried the Interactive and it lagged a bit. What is everyone setting it on that makes it so smooth?

I'm sure it's not the Rom, because like I said I've always used Faux's and it was good (but I'm always searching for the best!) and am trying to see what Sebastian's does and really trying to test this.
[HTC Sensation] Steve0007:
Just FYI, posted the changelog of Elegancia_TMOUS_V2.2.0

No ETA yet, still a lot of work to complete...
[HTC Sensation] XDeviateX:
How was your battery life with Sebastian vs Faux on this Rom? I had ARHD 6.6.2 (before I tried this Rom) which had faux123 v3 kernel, so I am contemplating flashing that kernel on this rom to see if the battery is any better.

My wife has a Sensation as well with ARHD 6.6.2 on it still, and it is noticeably faster when moving screen to screen. I compared sound, video, taking photos, taking video recordings, radio signal, wifi signal, download speeds.......their both the same when it comes to everything I have tested so far.

The only differences I have noticed is the elegancia/sebastianfm is noticeably slower, not as battery efficient but the screen stays brighter longer than the ARHD 6.6.2/faux123 v3, which may be why its not a efficient on the battery. Oh also with curvefish's battery life widget it stays around 52 degrees F with ARHD 6.6.2/faux and it is 77.1 degrees F with Elegancia/Sebastian. Did your temp with faux show lower on this Rom?
[HTC Sensation] Gman65:
Was just about to ask...lol
[HTC Sensation] Lucky Thirteen:
Yeah I know there is a huge difference of data, but I used them and it's the way they are. Never really dig the difference.

Everytime you want to change kernel, just reboot in recovery, clear both Cache and Davlik then flash your choosen one. Reboot.

I did prefer the Bricked 3.0 v1.0, for my device this kernel is my number. Naturally every device is different so it's possible another version can perform better on your phone.

Testing is the key to success.

:)
[HTC Sensation] Lionhardt:
Steve I ****ing love you. Also, my name is Steve as well. If I wasn't a poor college dude I'd totally throw some francs your way.
[HTC Sensation] WackyJoe:
Faux123 v3? Last I used was the one in my sig...there was another released a day or two ago but since I've been testing the Sebastian on this rom I haven't tried it...though I don't think it was a major bump up of anything.

As for the temp, Faux's shows around 50ish degrees F...now, I'm not sure why it would be 20 degrees different, but yes the Sebastian ones shows much higher at 77.1 exactly as I am typing this. Now, I've really not compared temps before and if these readings are even real.

As for the speed, in my earlier post yes I would have agreed, but now it's smooth on OnDemand...still gunna test it some more and see. I'm pretty sure nothing will probably beat Faux's kernel for power saving, especially on IntelliDemand.

But, as for this Rom...it's great. No FCs (yet ;)) and I can't think of why anyone else would want to use anything else. I'm new here, I don't know Steve0007 or Mike (ARHD), and to be honest I was going to try the ARHD but with the exclusion of all the things that Steve already put in, it was a no-brainer. I had come from a Euro build of ICS that was stable as hell and the only reason why I wanted to leave it was because the damn British Google Maps voice was driving me nuts! It was some euro firmware and there was no option to pick United States (English)...anyways, not biased towards any one rom or kernel...I just want THE best everyday rom+kernel combo and thus my quest continues. (hopefully the rom part is done :p)
[HTC Sensation] Lionhardt:
Also, what kind of stuff did you change around for the upcoming speed enhancements? I'm always interested in that stuff, as I'm just getting into computer science.
[HTC Sensation] Lucky Thirteen:
It's nice from you, but I am certain he prefer Euro instead of franc!! :p
[HTC Sensation] Lakino:
Lol. Thanks! I will forever remember my first time being thanked. :D
[HTC Sensation] XDeviateX:
I agree this Rom is great, no disrespect to Steve or his hard work, much respect for that. Just trying to be unbiased and also find a Rom/Kernel for everyday use with excellent battery life and performance.

Faux v3 came with ARHD 6.6.2/XE and that Rom/Kernel was very stable and super battery efficient for me compared to the ARHD GB builds prior, which were better than the stock rom/kernel obviously. But 6.6.x/XE series is based off a euro ICS build and I wanted to try a TMOUS build, as I thought I would get better data speeds possibly over the radio and maybe better signal...etc . Well after reading up on ARHD's version of the TMOUS build, there seemed to be some problems with things missing in the current ROM and also different bugs/problems with Faux's kernels after v3, they all seem to have some sort of issue or seem very experimental with new things he is trying (which is good and bad). So I decided to give this Rom a try after seeing Icesharks reference in the ARHD thread.

I like the Rom and the built in tweaks, runs very smooth, probably going to try faux's kernel with it, just to compare battery life. Just seems like I took a slight step down in the battery life and performance, but I do prefer the TMOUS build over the Euro one. I never used wifi calling, which I think is a problem in the Euro builds..so that never affected me personally like others.

And I have to say Steve supports this Rom better than ARHD is supported IMO. No disrespect to either, just my opinion.
[HTC Sensation] Rackfoo:
I just asked this question and got a solution in this thread. Whatever was suggested worked for me. I'm on XDA app so I can't search and link.

lucky star

yes bricked is really not bad with this value you said, no o/c gpu , badass balance , deadline. i am running this since yesterday beacsue i get issue with anthrax because of overclocked gpu .... and i can not set gpu no overclock on it. so bricked is what i run for a general stability now and battery saver.
[HTC Sensation] jackyaway:
My experience with this rom and bricked kernel (default settings, no OC, badass-performance).
[HTC Sensation] Lucky Thirteen:
Glad you appreciate the link, help yourself. Don't forget to share your results.

---------- Post added at 03:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:58 PM ----------

Did you try Bricked 3.0 v.1.0 also? This is my all time winner, never a kernel was so balanced between performance and battery wise. Give it a try with the exact same settings and report back your experience when done.

:)

---------- Post added at 03:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:01 PM ----------

That's what we can expect from talented devs on XDA, now let's hope that engineer at HTC and others gPhone maker will learn from them! :D

P.S. Try to stay above the 5% mark for the good health of your battery, those kind of batteries doesn't like to be fully discharge, you are reducing it's life expectancy when doing so.

[HTC Sensation] bofiana:
Past couple of days I've flashed a couple different Sense 4 ROMS just to try them out and also to settle down my ROM flashing addiction. They've ran OK on my phone but I always end up back on this ROM. I just updated to Faux's latest B3 kernel this morning and will run with it on this ROM for a bit to see how it does. But I'm definitely looking forward to the 2.2.0 update and all of the new goodies that are coming along with it. Thanks again for your work Steve.
