Does anyone know why the US version is smoother than the international one?
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
I would say whatever T-Mobile complained to HTC about to make them fix they smoothed it out.

That is my impression too. Tmous 2.1 is smoother tan 3.8

Im a die hard Mike AHRD Rom guy. However I had to try this verison as Mikes is missing too much stuff in it and just was driving me crazy but I loved the reknewed speed by the base and new radio. Then I read the post about trying this. WOWWWWWWWWWWW!!! This rom is awesome and is all that and a bag of chips. Feel bad cheating on MIKE and most likely will return when he gets his TMO rom as good as this. But still I have to really say GREAT JOB! You beat all the others to the best current TMO version out there!:p
[HTC Sensation] xdviper:
It was well worth the wait for those who waited for the official OTA. I'm still on 1.10 and I'm getting really good battery life and performance. **** is awesome!
[HTC Sensation] rorycs:
Yes I have done that... searched "stock ICS flashable kernel", "stock ICS kernel", "ICS flashable kernel" with no hits at all.... otherwise I would not have asked.

What I am looking for is simply the Stock TMO kernel from the OTA or RUU.
[HTC Sensation] Rackfoo:
Instagram just hangs for me whenever I take a photo. Is there a workaround?
[HTC Sensation] GROGG88:
You can pull the boot.img and lib/modules from Steve0007's stock Rom and build them into a flashable zip, or you can just reflash this Rom without wiping and choose the stock kernel. Or you can scroll through the dev section to find the stock kernel... Trust me, its there

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1616964

Stock ICS 3.32 base KERNEL

It's from 3.32.401.5, so I cannot guarantee that tmous did not make any changes... It's very unlikely though.

...just reflash the Rom. In the time it took you to research this you could have flashed it ten times.

STOCK kernel

Here is the stock kernel for you mate..
[HTC Sensation] Steve0007:
Thanks dublinz, will post the stock kernel into our Add-ons section later today :)
[HTC Sensation] stuart0001:
Is it the same stock kernel in all 3.32 builds?
[HTC Sensation] MuertoKo:
Yep, if you check the modification date of the kernel it's just the same as allways :)

i'm trying now stock kernel just to see how battery is with the stock one... who knows!

Btw anyone has stock kernel with edited thermal configuration that wanted to share? :) I'm always worried for my temp's xD

PS: As said before, I flashed all recomended firmware (with it's radio in ofc) and ril, I'm in Spain and all is working GREAT! So you can really recommend doing the whole thing to everyone, I have at least same signal and speeds as before ;)
[HTC Sensation] Sinistra425:
Ok so I broke down and flashed this Rom after installing the kernel I wanted and reinstalling my apps I have to say not a bad peace of work now all I need to do is find a mod with color icons without all the icon customizations any suggestions other then lightinbug's mod

Check the kitchen :)

[HTC Sensation] Steve0007:
For those who have updated from previous Elegancia_TMOUS to v2.1.0, do the HTC Twiteer and HTC location show up or you had to Full/Super wipe prior flashing the update ?
[HTC Sensation] Wally72:
Deleted! Upps!
[HTC Sensation] wildcontigo:
Yes they did.
[HTC Sensation] wildcontigo:
Just go to the elegancia themes and mods tread and flash away
[HTC Sensation] Steve0007:
The Leedroid tweaks are already in, no need to flash that, everything works out of the box already :)

OK thanks will update the changelog consequently :)
[HTC Sensation] Wally72:
Thx Steve...I will ask him what exactly he's doing or what fc he's getting!

Thx again!
[HTC Sensation] stuart0001:
If I've understood correctly then version 2.x is a slightly basterdised version of pure tmous build with elements from the euro ruu to accommodate tweaks.

If so, then that may explain the issues reported with 2 that weren't in version 1.

Personally I would gladly sacrifice the tweaks/eqs etc if it meant a smoother rom but would still like apn unlock but not sure if that's possible.
[HTC Sensation] Steve0007:
Tell me if there are any smoother Roms around ?

It is smoother than any others EU base Roms, as far as I can read on the several comments from users here.

What issues are you referring btw ? Again reading the overall comments from users, they seem pretty happy with version 2.
[HTC Sensation] dublinz:
Mate this rom is smooth, it is my cup of tea, rock solid and great sound enhancement ... But dont take my word for it ....try it ...and share with us your findings
[HTC Sensation] vernon092487:
Hi Steve,

Thank you for this ROM! Super Fast and Smooth! Perfect!

Just a simple request. Can you add a choice in Aroma for stock battery and stock %? I don't really like the numbers..hope you can upload a flashable zip for it..

Thank you very much!
[HTC Sensation] Steve0007:
Thanks for this nice and

fair comment

.

Look @ our Add-ons section, there is a zip file for non% battery already posted.

Enjoy :)
[HTC Sensation] kingston73:
What issues? And regardless of kernel, I haven't used any other rom that is this smooth and fast, so not really sure what you're talking about?

Can't you just use tweaks and choose "no battery %"?
[HTC Sensation] WackyJoe:
"Almost" perfect Rom, now get it even fasterrrr!

I was about to flash ARHD myself, but upon reading on what it didn't have working I continued my look around...and landed myself here on this thread and Rom.

Installed it yesterday and tested all night...was running Virtuous Sensation 3.0 because it was the most stable version I could find for everyday use, but this Elegancia Rom IS STABLE, well so far ;) as I can see in a day of testing.

Running it on Faux123's Kernel at 192~1.51 for everyday normal usage and it's not given me a hiccup yet (though it can clock to 1.72)

Here's some benchmarks for those who care:

While using Faux123's Kernel + Class 4 SD Card @ 2048 Cache

AnTuTu @ 1.72 = 7100+ Average (set on Performance Governor)

Quadrant @ 1.72 = 3000+ Average (set on Performance Governor)

(Performance should always be used, as least as I was told, to get the "highest" possible numbers...so just did it here to show the "top scores")

(Could have probably gotten better scores if I shut all background stuffs...just here for basic comparisons anyways.)

AnTuTu @ 1.51 = 6700+ Average (set on IntelliDemand Governor)

Quadrant @ 1.51 = 2900+ Average (set on IntelliDemand Governor)

(Ran it on IntelliDemand and at 1.51 because that's my everyday settings)

(And YES, everything running in the background!)

I was getting 7900+ average on AnTuTu and 3300+ average on Quadrant with the same Kernel but with the Virtuous Sensation Rom 3.0 BUT the Elegancia Rom still does seem much smoother/faster.

I could only see Elegancia getting faster after this (for Benchmarks & real life usage) because there isn't anything else to be worked on!

But I do have one thing that is killing me...the damned Boot Animation!

Where is it located? From what I remember, if you erase it entirely from where it is currently, then the rom, kernel, the OS or whatever it is (someone tell me!) will look for it in another folder (the one that Rom Toolbox Pro sets it in...whichever that one is) and then you can freely flash any boot animations as you please. Anyone know? Also, where is the "shutdown" animation located too?
[HTC Sensation] WarlockW:
Just a few things ..

Really Steve this is a rocking rom .. you done a amazing job :)

By Far the best rom sofar I have tried ..

Some of the differences between 1.0 and 2.0 i have found are ..

~ Ver 1.0.0 - Auto Restore Brightness for camera finaly works like it should!

( ver 2.1.0 - No Longer works for me! STAYS 100% Bright after use.

~ Ver 1.0.0 - Auto Brightness seems to work smoother!

( ver 2.1.0 - Does not seem as smooth )

~ Ver 1.0.0 - Volume is Great for ring tones ect. Nice and Loud !

( ver 2.1.0 - Volume is WAY Softer On ring tones ect)

~ Ver 1.0.0 - GPS IS FAB! Locks Very Fast - Works Great INSIDE HOUSE

( ver 2.1.0 - GPS Locks OK .. Takes a few to lock - Does Not Lock Very Well Inside House.)

~ Ver 1.0.0 - Amazing smoothness and great battery life! ( stock kernel )

( ver 2.1.0 - Good Smoothness not as good battery life ( stock Kernel )

Problem is when you make a franken-tmous build and not a true tmoble

build other problems "pop up" found a few things that we "fixed" with

the true build that are back with the franken-tmous build

The true tmobile build in my opion is way better ..

however you cant have all the great tweaks! Its really a bummer :(

Maybe need to do a different thread for JUST t-mobile guys ? IDK
[HTC Sensation] vernon092487:
Is it available in the tweaks? I can't find that option. The only battery option covers the battery text style if you want it to be displayed and not the text in the battery icon itself..
[HTC Sensation] WackyJoe:

if you don't want the numbers...

But the answer to your question, I don't think it's in the tweaks.

[HTC Sensation] MuertoKo:
I've tried all actual versions since T-Mous was release... Stock one (even if I'm not US and couldn't get network to work xD), ARHD, Virtuous, Elegancia... and trust me, there's none as smooth as 2.1.0 right now! (Maybe they have other improvements ofc, don't get me wrong!)

For people looking for a smooth experience and great batter life Elegancia 2.1.0 it's the solution as far as I've tested...

Moreover after 24 hours and my first charging cycle battery life looks equal to ARHD 6.6.4 (the one I've been using till now as daily ROM) using same kernel (faux 007b2 right now).

Just having the same random reboots I've been experiencing forever while my phone is chargind and idle... any idea what could be the cause of my special reboots? Don't really know where the hell to ask about them (Nothing on last_kmsg btw). It just reboots while charging, at 80%, at 100% whenever, at least 2 times per charge... (With any battery, tried anker and stock). Maybe charger? I'm getting a new one today :S

Thanks for attention Steve ;)

PS: I think I'd should go change my signature for daily ROM... :)
[HTC Sensation] dublinz:
Mate do i read you correctly, you had this problem before you flashed Elegancia ?

If that is the case, can you please tell us did you used HTC unlocker ?
[HTC Sensation] MuertoKo:
Yep I've had problems with random reboots since a long time, tried rom's and kernel's but it always happens to me when charging, weird isn't it?

I unloked my phone using S-Off non-oficial option, so not used HTC unlocker as I read it caused some problems, I think it was revolutionary for the S-Off right? I'm S-Off and SuperCID btw...
[HTC Sensation] iceshark:
Yes, however I used Mikes Super wipe program first then the built in one with Steves loader using 4ext. Both came up with no problem. So use Mikes SW first if you have issue. Hope that helps buddy.

Saddly it shouldn't be that... will do it anyway but I bought a new SD Card a week ago xD Solved the problems for a while but dn if it was just by chance...

This way I might not know what caused it, but as far as I get rid of the problem it won't bother me :P

Thanks for answering :) Starting to love Elegancia's thread xD

Screw all, just for answering this fast and kindly here it goes a beer! I just love kind and close people! And this is as smooth as a baby's boot in butter!

Question, I thought I saw it few pages back but now I am lost. I am not a fan of the TMOUS boot animation. Is there an easy way to delete it and put something else up. And where would I find something else cool. Anything but TMO! LOL
[HTC Sensation] dublinz:
I have one additional step for you if you are willing to try...

Ones i had an strange issue like phone is hounted, i tried all trick from the book, but no joy.... So i format sd, flashed STOCK rom (rooted with superuser) (from this thread ) and my problem are gone......

If you have time and if you are willing to experiment link for download file is HERE

The beauty of this rom is ....if your phone is in trouble you can use this file as first AID kit :)

To Change the boot animation you will need root explorer or a file explorer.

1. Choose bootanimation that works for you, place this somewhere on your sd card.

2. Go into file explorer (i.e Root explorer or esfile explorer)and go to system/customize/resource/TMOUS_bootanimation.zip

3. Delete current bootanimation.zip

4. stay in root explorer and go to sd card and choose bootanimation. change name to bootanimation.zip

5. Place bootanimation.zip in system/customize/resource/TMOUS_bootanimation.zip

So you suggest I install this stock ROM and then reflash elegancia over? Or that I should try if the reboots keep hapening when using stock one? I have some time so I may test it :D

My humble opinion ..... The best way is to try stock rom for one day... just to be certain that you dont have hardware issue ...

[HTC Sensation] stuart0001:
Let me apologise for my last post. It was not meant to come across as negative as it does and reading it back it was not what I intended.

Firstly, as I have previously stated, this is the slickest and most reliable ROM I've used and I stand by that and congratulate the team. However, there have been a couple of posts (links below) that got me thinking that perhaps that it may be possible to have an even slicker ROM if some TMOUS enhancements were not lost due to having to use elements from the euro RUU to make compatible with tweaks.

I may well have put 2 & 2 together and got 5, and in-fact no TMOUS improvements have been lost, but I just wanted to express my personal preference would be that I could live without tweaks if it meant an even better performing ROM than you've already provided.

Just to clarify. I stated my opinion based on having used several phoenix builds (euro), and all the elegancia tmous builds. I've never had stock tmous ics. So, I compared elegancia vs elegancia only. I'm not a developer nor I pretend to be one. I have no idea how to cook a Rom.

Thanks guys...I had done this a LONNNG time ago, but it was only needed to start in LOCAL/ and it was just called bootanimation.zip but this little guide sure does help.

And yes, the TMOUS_bootanimation.zip is INDEED case sensitive!

I was pulling my hair out because I had it at: Tmous_bootanimation.zip :rolleyes:

Anyways, just FYI, you can also change TMOUS_downanimation.zip for the anime when you turn off your phone or whatevers...

Also, a lot of bootanimation stuff out there MAY NOT fit your screen correctly (too large or too small)...
[HTC Sensation] iceshark:
I must be missing a setup. UGG. Thank for helping here is what I am doing based on your instructions.

1.Open es exploer and press MENU (capacitative button second from left)

DONE easy

2. Pick settings-->(tick )Root explorer ---> follow the information on screen

Done

3. Tick Mount File System

DONE

4. Press back (on capacitive button)

DONE

5. In upper left corner of the screen you will see FAVORITES ///press it---->(in menu pick / ) NOW YOU ARE IN ROOT :) no panic :)

DONE

6. go to .......>system/customize/resource/TMOUS_bootanimation.zip

DONE I THINK as I see both the TMOUS Bootanimation and the TMOUS end anitmations zip files.

3. Delete current bootanimation.zip

Okay I have DELETED complete ZIP TMOUS Bootanimation folder. Was I supposed to just delete the TMOUS file in the folder or the complete folder? I reloaded rom to replace the deleted folder as I was confused. It wont let me delete the TMOUS file in the folder.

4. stay in root explorer and go to sd card (FAVORITES---> HOME) and choose bootanimation. change name to bootanimation.zip

Are you referring to the the Elgancia Beats Bootanimation file I downloaded to the SD card? I downloaded it to my SD card and changed name to bootanimation.zip I do not have a choice simply of bootanimation when going to home. I just went to home and then scrolled down to the file I renamed bootanimation.

5. Place bootanimation.zip (long press on file ---> copy to-----> / ---->)in system/customize/resource/TMOUS_bootanimation.zip

Since I deleted the folder of TMOUS bootanimation it is not there to put it in anymore. Also when I try and copy to it only goes as far as the RESOURCES and does not show any of the files in the resource folder at this point.

6. This step is very Important....Change permissions to rw r r (long press on file --->properties --->)

Well when I just simply tried putting the file I renamed into the resource file it already had those permissions. I also tried just making a NEW Tmousbootanimation file for the one I deleted and placed my renamed bootanimation.zip in it and checked persmissions. Did not work this way.

7. Reboot phone and now you have a nice new bootanimation specially made for elegancia

NO LOVE. No work. No just black screen before it starts.
[HTC Sensation] wildcontigo:
U need to rename the bootanimaton that you want TMOUS_bootanimation.zip to just replace the one on the resource folder. If you erased that one just put the new one in as I spelled it. Right now you don't have any.

Don't forget to change permissions to rw r r
[HTC Sensation] Lucky Thirteen:
Exactly, it is case sensitive and it has to be named exactly like the one you want to replace. If not, it will not work...
[HTC Sensation] iceshark:
Hmm still no go. I simply downloaded the Elegncia Beats v1 bootanimation. Copy and pasted your

TMOUS_bootanimation.zip as the new name (replacing bootanimation.zip

Deleted the stock

TMOUS_bootanimation.zip that was in the resource folder.

Copy to function used to move the one I named to the resource folder.

I changed permissions to RW R R as stated and chose OK.

Reboot and now just blank black screen on boot/
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
Try putting it in /data/local

You may have to name it bootanimation.zip for that folder though. No TMOUS
