Proxy Sensor issues?!

Hey guys. Recently I have been wondering what's going on with.my Sensor. It used to work just fine until I started flashing new Roms. I had the sensor working on the default.CM 9.1.0 rom and I can't remember another rom it worked with. I now have ViperS 1.6.3 for Sensation. I love this rom, but I checked AndroSensor and the status for the ProxSensor always says "Waiting for event" I am not sure what to do here, my sensor just doesn't work anymore! Troubleshooting ideas please!
[HTC Sensation] Eezay:
Hey Buddy, we're in the same boat. My Sensors don't work, too. There is a thread here in android developement section with some other people that have broken Sensors. For me, there seems to be no solution.

It's most likely a kernel or hboot problem
[HTC Sensation] ClipTy:
I was wondering if there was any form of app that can emulate what the sensors do...Not necessarily for the Auto Brightness (I use manual anyway) but for the dialer. Maybe there's an app or plugin that locks the screen when you answer the phone? Locking it myself kind of sucks.

Also I found this thread but I wouldn't know where to begin. I don't know the base of this rom.

Also thanks for being the ONLY person to respond to my issue..Lol.

Calls

Hi guys,I have been having a problem with answering calls on my sensation with viperS 1.6.3.When a call comes in I try to pick the call by dragging the answer button(green button) to the ring but the call hangs up or does not complete.I had to use an apk called catlog to get the activities on the rom.Can someone help please.Thanks alot.
[HTC Sensation] noodles2k:
If any app can do what you want, it'll be Tasker . You can get a 7 day trial from their website here .
[HTC Sensation] metropical:
I've not seen anything like this myself. My 1st suggestion, unfortunately, would be to wipe and reflash at default from 4EXT.

The other suggestion is, I put a new mSD card in my phone before the last re-flash.

I've been considerably mote stable since then ....... knock wood.
[HTC Sensation] shaedz:
I have done all that,reflashed so many times and changed my sd card too.The 1.6.3 rom is stock,I have used the complete rom and also incremental updates to 1.6.3,I have downloaded the same rom thrice.Other roms dont act like this.The rom dont always act that way.Sometimes when I answer my call it connects and answer and sometimes the call doesnt connect but stays at the rectanguler red and green,decline and answer buttons,and at the other end the person sees his call as being rejected.

That was why i uploaded my cat;og if anyone could help please.

[HTC Sensation] noodles2k:
Just tried this and it seems to work.

1. Create a new profile for Event/Phone/Phone offhook.

2. Add task Task/Wait and set it to 250ms - this is important otherwise it won't work for outgoing calls.

3. Then add task Display/System Lock (not Display/Lock).

Thank you! Tasker seems like a sweet app, I just gotta learn how to use it, more importantly what to use it for.

Feedback issue

Hi Guys,

I'm wondering if i'm doing something wrong an am i the only one with this problem, or is this a known issue......

I've been using this rom for the first time, and i noticed that there ain't any feedback when typing a message.....

Would realy like this....

Is there any way to fix this????

Realy like the rom, and would like to keep using this rom, but feedback would be gr8!!!

Thanks!!
[HTC Sensation] behnamsarhandi:

[HTC Sensation] the-extreme:
Nope...... Sorry tried it several times.....

On/off, restart everything......

Oh, I do get the vibrate when i'm pushing the back button, so the vibrate thingy works... :)

Any other ideas???

Thanks

Keyboard settings. There should be a vibration toggle on off. If you click to the left (similar to Wi-Fi and mobile settings toggles) it should bring up a light medium and heavy feedback option.

Trace Keyboard

I was just thinking how much I like this ROM until I was unable to turn on trace. it looks like it's coming on but does not allow trace on the keyboard. I did a search and nothing was said about it other then to turn it off.

Is or will there be a fix for this?

NEVER MIND.... Figured it out. had to turn off trace to turn on prediction and then turn on trace. strange how I did not need to do all that before!

That's strange. prediction is not an option for me. it's there but it's ghosted! what am I doing wrong?
[HTC Sensation] lowrider262:
Turn trace off, then go to advanced and you should be able to switch prediction & correction on. Once it's on you can go back and turn trace back on if you like

Greetings and salutations,

Got a fresh new flash of this fantastic 1.6.3 Sensational VipetS. All wiped beforehand, even no backed app restored. And it's just FLYING at warp speed!

I have one issue with FM radio. It simply won't work. It does seek stations and seem to find the actual frequencies we have around, so that seem to work, but I can hear nothing. Not through the earphones and not through the speaker.

Looked around and it seems people had that issue but it was resolved with v1.6.2... And I did not find complaints about the current version.

Please advise.
[HTC Sensation] burleanu:
As far I know is a problem of the Sense.

It help if you deactivate the 3 finger gestures.

Mine and my wife's is doing this from time to time, no mater the Rom used, but from when I deactivate this is not doing anymore.

Path to this is:

"settings-display, gestures...- HTC 3 finger gestures" and you deactivate that there.

Bye.

battery life

not specifically related to ViperS, but since this is a more active thread ..........

and it's my fave...

battery in standby, NP, good life.

As soon as I launch just about any app, drain is visible.

I'm not talking games, I mean Evernote for a minute.

Maps without GPS. Calendar Pad. SMS.

Screen is dimmed 95% of the time to 20%.

I can't find any background app that seems to be sucking.

This happens with OEM batt (barely used) and Anker.

ROM doesn't seem to matter, nor kernel.

Wondering if my batts need to be "re-educated"?

just suddenly happened about a month ago. Not a gradual change.

Both batts read good in GSam.

hi guys, ive been using this rom for a while now and i was wondering if there is any solution on the problem where when we take a photo and the phone shuts down? ive been looking for a solution on this thread and cant find an exact solution. ive reflashed and with a full wipe..
[HTC Sensation] topjohnwu:
Well... I've never experienced this issue before... Maybe you undervolted too much, or maybe you can consider full wipe and reflash.

tried a full wipe and it works but after a while comes back. i also tried different kernels and still happens and i havnt undervolted it. i installed it everything in stock settings from the rom
[HTC Sensation] elkingyboy:
This can be a symptom of a dodgy battery or loose battery. Try wedging a bit of paper/card between battery and phone to make sure battery has good connection.
[HTC Sensation] jackep82:
tried the paper trick.. it didnt work. the battery lasts a day or two with a charge. it just happens when i take a picture from the camera. when the flash goes on and the camera snaps the photo.. then it just shuts down.. anyone else having this problem?

I have this exact same problem It happens with ROM's which have the aroma installer. I must have tried 20 times formating everything over and over but it always fails at the same point with aroma installer :mad:

Any fixes for this issue or is there a way to install the ROM without the aroma installer :confused:

Please someone help me :crying:
[HTC Sensation] elvisypi:
Maybe you are s-on? In that case enable smartflash in 4ext recovery. If you are s-off maybe the rom wasn't properly downloaded. Check md5 sums and try downloading again
[HTC Sensation] bigrammy:
Thanks for the reply buddy :) You are correct I am s-on I am using TWRP recovery though so I guess I will have to flash the 4ext recovery and see how I get on. :fingers-crossed:

Do you know the cause of the problem as this only happens with ROM's for sense and all that I have tried so far come with aroma installer all other ROM's flash no problem Miui and JellyTime but neither have aroma so what I am asking is this a Sense issue or Aroma issue :eek:

Just like to know these things :laugh:
[HTC Sensation] topjohnwu:
And remember to enable smartflash!! :):)

And for the aroma part, it seems that Team Venom only official supports 4ext recovery, some people reported that using TWRP flashing Viper roms will cause issues.
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
It's a recovery issue i would say.. It didn't have proper aroma support
[HTC Sensation] bigrammy:
Hi guys,

Thanks for the help and you are all correct. 4EXT recovery works without any issues so I guess it was a compatibility issue between Aroma & TWRP.:D

First time using 4ext recovery but looks really nice :good:

Impossible Bootloop Problem?

Hey Guys:

Can anyone help me with a really bad bootloop issue. I'm using Viper1.6.3 and I installed the new Sultan Kernel R-18. Each time the desktop loads up, and just before the SIM registers on the network and I can see the bars load in notifications, I am back at the Sensation 4G boot animation screen.

I ran the Aroma installer for the Viper 1.6.3 ROM and chose the repair function, and I also ran the Aroma installer for the Sultan R-16 Kernel and did the restore option in there and the same problem keeps happening. I also did a fix I found in the threads here about flashing the Boot.IMG file within the Kernel folder of the Viper 1.6.3 ROM zip file, same problem.

Does anyone have any ideas? Or am I at the point of doing a SuperWipe and fresh install?

Thanks in advance!
[HTC Sensation] ashkan-khatar:
Hi,

If you have s-on, re-flash the ROM without wipe after flashing boot.img manually through adb commands.

And if you have s-off, then you don't need to use adb to flash boot.img, just go ahead for flashing the ROM without wipe, and see how it goes.

His signature says he's "S-OFF", otherwise that was also my first though, but in such boot loops, he wouldn't even boot the rom right? I mean, he's reaching the PIN screen.

Last time I had such a scenario, I flashed a GingerBread rom in a S-ON with updated firmware (by mistake and lack of attention), when I flashed back ICS, I had thar problem, however it got fixed re-flashing the rom and fastboot flash boot boot.img like you said.

Or could be in need of a "reinstall" instead of "repair", don't know what's the difference in aroma tho.
[HTC Sensation] ashkan-khatar:
I come with xda app, and therefore don't see his signature.

I'm sure that problem is caused by the kernel, since Sultan gives a lot of reboots to me as well.

And some issues are not fixable in that way, really, that's why I just jumped into that idea without any preface.

For instance, I once flashed An****x kernel without using kernel reset, and as it is somehow different with others, it gave me a wild bootloop that I never saw before.

So I flashed Faux kernel back, and it booted up; but the ROM had been screwed up. A lot of FC... Lag... And some other issues... So as usual, got back to recovery, wiped cache and dalvik and fixed permissions, and it was wonderful that was not fixed.

Whatever I did, I couldn't fix that till I fresh-install'd the ROM (If I remember correctly).

It was never the ROM's problem. It's caused by 4ext's SmartFlash encountering some problems so the kernel wasn't flash properly. One way to prevent this is by doing an s-off
