[HTC Sensation] CMC_PUBLIKUM:
Hi.

Something strange (at least to me) happened after updating from 1.4.0 to 1.4.1 by OTA: When i downloaded the update and start the installation, i had 56% of battery and when the installation finished and the phone rebooted, the battery was with 77%!

When i was using the 1.3.5 it happened sometimes the phone rebooting when i had 85% (for example) and then when it turned on, i only had 16% (example) and i had to turn off the phone and taking off the battery several times in order to the battery % go back to initial state. In the 1.4.0 it never happened.

Strange!

Can anyone explain that? I always do a full wipe before installing a newer version of the rom.

Also, with my Sensation 4G from T-Mobile (unlocked and using in Portugal), right here where i am, i have 3 bars of network and my girlfriend's Sensation (3G) has the 5 bars. Both of us use Vodafone.

Please quote my text in order to be more easy to me to see that someone answered.

Thanks

Installed 1.4.1 earlier this afternoon and my proximity and light sensors stop working from time to time. A restart seems to fix it for a little while.

Guys I have a problem. How do I get the ota from 1.4.0 to 1.4.1 ?
[HTC Sensation] tw39515:
settings, about, click on software update.
[HTC Sensation] TJD319:
Do you have 4ext Recovery installed? If not, that is required for OTA to function (uses Aroma installer).

Also, flashing any Bricked kernel overtop the ROM has been said to break OTA (because it makes adjustments to the build.prop). Restoring original build.prop fixes.

Download either full ROM or incremental update in OP. Or use your phones Software Update feature (Settings - About - Software Update).

Hello team venom,thanks for excellent rom,

Another issue is ringtone doesn't stay after reboot

What exactly is your point? Off course we all are different and have different needs...

[HTC Sensation] bofiana:
I've been using this Rom since v.5.0 with a few add ons even and I've never had an issue with wifi, here at home, work, Starbucks, wherever. So not sure if it can be a Rom issue. If so, why wouldnt it do this for everyone? Maybe u have different hardware than me? I have sensation 4G, using radio 11.72, ril 24HMQ, and dish 3. Maybe radio issue for u? Idk man, just trying to help. Hope u get it figured out.
[HTC Sensation] craven667:
please help me as my wifi works i have a big problem i think its sense think i have a lock on phone with ring and pattern and in pocket it will load camera and take pics i only know if i hear zoom or dialer will start pushing buttons and the other day the flashlight and it kinda got stuck on had to restart phone with bat pull

plz help me lol
[HTC Sensation] jonio298:
Maybe it is because I flashed the TMO firmware that they recently released and didn't change the build.prop to match it to dish2.

I'm going to try that now. Thanks for sparking that idea!

One little bug. The mail widget does not update. It only does when opening the mail app
[HTC Sensation] JethroCl:
It is caused by having 2 same mail accounts, one for HTC Mail, and the other for Gmail. They both use the same account I guess. Disabling one of both from auto-syncing may solve the issue.

can I use this fix also with the 1.4.1? thanks!
[HTC Sensation] zeldhaking:
It works, thx.:good:
[HTC Sensation] RoryUK:
I had asked that question a few hours before you did. I also got the advice of installing 4ext as an alternative instead to CWM.

It worked a treat. :)

Did it solved your problem?
[HTC Sensation] allouh:
I tried this rom for two days and it's by far the best rom from all others I've tried(ARHD,CM10).

My only problem is with the Camera app, it crashes on many occasions during image capture, and sometimes saving video take a min or more!

Also "forcing bitrate" option seems need fixing (20mb/s is actually 40mb/s and 10mb/s is actually 30mb/s).
[HTC Sensation] Harbir:
Need help I am getting superuser errors of not funding binary by rooted apps and some are saying that I am not rooted how to fix this getting this error only in 1.4.1 full update .
[HTC Sensation] :
I'm quite sure that I had no transparent clock.

I did a full wipe and installed 1.4.0 (like you) and the clock was not available after I deleted HTC Sense data and several restarts.

I don't know why some have this problem and some not (I think you're the only one, where it worked), but with an earlier version of this apk it works.
[HTC Sensation] Sherlocks:
I found Stream Player horizontal size is not sensation qhd.

so i fix it. always thanks venom team.
[HTC Sensation] Ouzo:
Brilliant, thanks for replying. I thought I was going completely mad :)

I can confirm that under Sense 3.6 Beats did work via A2DP, though perhaps it's just a change rather than a bug. It's a shame because Beats audio got the best out of my MW600 under the old ROMs.

I noticed that when using a bluetooth keyboard the arrow keys now change homescreens under Sense 4.1 which is a useful addition, but in the stock browser the keyboad shortcuts such as 'Ctrl+H' (for history) no longer work, so maybe HTC just likes to play games with us ;)

I might search for a tweaked Beats audio package and see if it can be flashed over the top. Perhaps I'll ask in the One X forum to see what funtionality they have.
[HTC Sensation] cyber_system:
Thanks :) I thought mksh was a bad thing, so i blocked it, but now i know that it is good :)

Is SuperUser fixed in 1.4.1 ?

Beats is working for me with 1.4.0 with bluetooth headset, but it sounds crap. I use 'classical', sounds great (Nokia BH-504 headset)

By the way, looks like OTA is frozen at the yellow exclamation mark wiwth the small green android (while upgrading to 1.4.1) and I have CWM recovery if it matters. Don't know what to do now, will it brick the phone if I remove the battery?
[HTC Sensation] frankiefkit:
guys which kernel do you recommend for performance and battery life?

You would get many different opinions.
[HTC Sensation] ahmedrzvi:
dose this Rom works with HTC desrie z? :confused:
[HTC Sensation] elvisypi:
Yes the problem is your recovery. 4ext is a must for ota updates. No you won't brick your phone cause nothing is installed through cwb. Just flash tge latest 4 ext
[HTC Sensation] ivicask:
No :)
[HTC Sensation] Raven2k:
Alright...

Apparently, the exchange mod is not installed correctly by the aroma script.:thumbdown:

Instead of it being installed to /system/app its being installed to /system

But changing this to the right path did not help, the right apk is installed, but still the passwords are enforced..

Can anyone from the dev team can take a look?

Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] vasujahagirdar:
Yes it did.

Third issue apart from background image,ringtone not staying is the photos are not syncing from facebook even after selecting facebook sync fix in aroma installation.
[HTC Sensation] McLongDong:
Here's something you can think about before you post again.

You are on HTC SENSATION thread

NOT

your HTC "desrie" z thread. To answer your question I will use an analogy. Can you play basketball with a hockey puck? If you want to be a smart alec, then yes, you can, but will the match play go well? NO, it will be disastrous.

Therefore, integrating a foreign ROM other than your native phone build will be susceptible to many problems and ultimately destroy your phone.

Happy Flashing

[HTC Sensation] MrAndrewRu:
Battery question

Hello everyone. Started using this rom since it was pokemon, but stopped on version 1.0.0. After updating to 1.4 was suprised about battery drain. During sleep (current widget shows 40-80 mA) or just standby with screen on (60-100ma), everything is ok. But when I start using my Sensation, battery started to leak (see screenshot)

While using play market for 20 minutes, 5% went away (autobrightness on, custom settings - up to 60). Current widget shows about 200-350mA power consuming. It could be ok, but some simple 2d games (cartoon wars, shoot the zombirds) can be up to 500-700 (don't use GPU overclock).

Any advices? (After reading a few pages I'm thinking of changing to another kernel)
[HTC Sensation] :
I got best battery with Faux's kernel, but best performance with Bricked. Battery on Bricked kernel is decent too, so I'm sticking with bricked at the moment :D
[HTC Sensation] tommykwan222:
well, I am also facing this problem right now.

But for the previous rom, the icon of the clock is always stay at the notification bar.

[HTC Sensation] ShogunPatch:
Boot looping

Thanks for these replies, and also to Hinxnz for his. Apologies for the delay in acknowledging but I've been off the radar for a few days and so have only now had a chance to get back to this.

Following your instructions I searched online and found some good instructions on 4ext following which I successfully downloaded and installed it, did a nandroid backup and a full wipe. I then went to install ViperS 1.4.0 (which I had downloaded last week at the time of my original post). It all seemed to go OK, asked me various questions most of which I stuck with the default answer for, and then returned a message that the installation had been successful. "Great!" I thought. It then gave me a single option to reboot, which I followed, and since then has been boot looping continuously briefly showing a custom HTC screen with a viper which disappears off to the right.

I then noticed that ViperS 1.4.1 had just been released so I've tried downloading and installing that, but with exactly the same result. Incidentally, has anybody else noticed that the 1.4.1 zip still refers to 1.4.0 when it runs through the installation although the changelog does include 1.4.1 changes?

Any ideas on why I am bootlooping and how I can get past it would be much appreciated.
[HTC Sensation] Mr-YC:
The usual question: Are you using firmware 3.32, if yes please upgrade to firmware 3.33 and follow instructions in here

[HTC Sensation] metropical:
WiFi calling, S2W

This combo or something different?

Android Version - 4.0.4

HTC Sense - 4.1

Firmware - 3.33

ROM - ViperS 1.4.0

Radio - Radio_11.76A.3504.00P_11.24A.3504.31_M

Kernel - Bricked 3 v1.40
[HTC Sensation] Mr-YC:
in my opinon and no offense to the developer. Yes, it is slightly slower than Superuser (ViperS)

My way of installing SuperSU, not sure whether it is the correct way of doing it but it works =)

1. install SuperSU (ChainFire) and grant root access using Superuser (ViperS)

2. Uninstall Superuser (ViperS) using Titanium Backup Pro

3. move SuperSU (ChainFire) to system app (move to system/app using ES File Explorer, set permission to rw -r -r)

4. Reboot

Exchange mod that WORKS!!!! (finally)

So, after ages of fighting with my ViperS for a working Exchange mod (as no password and no device administrator or enforced device lock ) - A solution was found.

A mod made for OrDroid, which has slightly different version (and I think was made for Sense 4, rather than 4.1) works sensationally.

Before applying the mode - ALWAYS MAKE SURE TO NANDROID FIRST!!.

Now that that's out of my system, here are the relevant instructions by rathore4u:

I would like to thank rathore4u big time for his useful instructions and mod !

If this mod works for you, please go to his thread [MOD][APP]Exchange Security Disabled - JB, ICS AOSP, Sense 3.6 & 4.0 -WITH HOWTO and thank him - he sure deserves it :good:

[HTC Sensation] moonchy:
In the viper1.40 zip file in the kernel folder there is a file called boot.img

connect your phone to pc .. you must have htc sync installed.

use the fastboot utility to flash the boot.img to your phone through the PC.

Thanks. Updating the firmware to 3.33 has done the trick so I'm now discovering the delights of ViperS 1.4.1 - so far I'm very pleased. Just one issue: there does seem to be a bit of lag in response whenever I select something. I'll see if it settles down (my phone has been updating all my apps, etc, for the last hour so maybe that is slowing it down).

I'm using 1.4.1.

And I should say that this ROM is the flawless and the most power saving of ViperS ever...

I'm a huge fans of ViperS ROM. And for me, this is the most advance Sense rom for Sensation out there.

Thanks to the Venom Team for providing us such a stable and great ROM.
[HTC Sensation] axetilen:
use your phone until it is automatically turned off. Try to press Power button several times to make sure battery left

charge the phone for 20 seconds and unplug. Go to recovery and wipe battery stats. leave it on the table, still in recovery mode until it turns off

charge for 8 hours without turning it on

==> I think it shoud be better after undergoing this

I think you definitely used lucky patcher right?

open lucky patcher -> press Menu touchkey -> Troubleshooting -> remove backups and fixes -> finish

it may ask you to reboot the phone -> do it

and then you can install those apps like normal without insufficient available storage 5-> you have to patch them again

NOTE: everytime you clear davik cache (after the reboot, it shows "Optimizng Android Processes"), this issue will appear again and you have to do this
