Damm... i have a nob question... can someone explain the "Infinite scrolling in rosie" funciton in PkMn 5?

I thought it was scroling the 5 homescreens like a carousel, but i can't get it to work :-(
[HTC Sensation] BuXuRa:
Very nice rom! thanks m0narX!

can anyone tell me where to get theme packs? tried test themes and liked theming sense!
[HTC Sensation] ViktorX:
Its just scroling through screens with loop (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,1,2,3...). Theres no carosell like in sense 3.x when U swipe fast in one direction...
[HTC Sensation] jkolner:
Hmm... that's strang... when i swipe left or right on homescreen, i don't get furter the 1 and 7.

Do you have to so anything to activate it? I cant finde it in Tweaks.
[HTC Sensation] wingray:
Many Thanks. After applying the fix, more options can be found on setup page. However, the handwriting input method still freeze when I input more characters ( say >30 ).

wifi saved

I tried to connect with Starbucks wifi today and it usually works. This time it would just say "saved" and not connect. What's up with that and how do you force it to go to there login page?
[HTC Sensation] NeO_ReVoLuTiOn89:
I don't post any link to download it. You'll have to use Google for it... Sorry.

The first two days my battery drains so fast, but after, perfect. I used lagfree and smartassv2 governor, and I define it as smoothness, fast and no battery drains. If you can find it, You'll can install it using AROMA, so You'll can chose the best options for you (battery life or performance) ;)
[HTC Sensation] kswiss86:
Thats my choice too. I think its the best.

But somtimes (only sometimes) the rosie have a little lag (ultrasmooth Rosie enabeled).

I hope that solved with the Sense 4.1 Update fromt Team Venom

Hey,

Just letting u guys know, if someone have not properly working 3G network too :)

fixing is very easy!

You just go to Mobile network setting > Access Point Names, and see what is preselected there. For me, 3G network was working through carriers wap servers, I just sellected a normal internet serrvers there, an now 3G working as expected :)

After using play store to install or update any app, no matter what the kernel, the system will lag as hell. Any advice?
[HTC Sensation] JethroCl:
Since yesterday i can't send any more text messages with my Sensation.

I remember messing around in the hidden HTC dialog from within the Tweaks app, and changed settings like "IMS registration required" and "enable SMS with IMS".

I reverted the settings to stock, but still can't send any texts, receiving is not a problem. Does someone know what I did wrong?

---------- Post added at 09:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:52 AM ----------

Yes, you can close the Play Store app from within the task manager.
[HTC Sensation] ziaulh.ch:
Which ver? The lag is not expected. Battery drain depends on your overclocking. Do not overclock anything. Underclock intellideman max to 800+. Screen off 400+, Use zram and avoid sd swap. Should be butter.

I tried sabs kernel with mod yday. Everything was fine but games lag too much and asphalt 7 losses graphics quality. So obviously the underclocking of gpu is.evident. thats how u get extra batt. Other than that on demand means one core is at full and another stays idle max time. So the cpu load is not distributing equally. On the other hand, intellidemand distributes the load on both core and gives your cpu relaxation and butter smooth performance.

Make sure you use sab script to remove kernel mod before flashing faux and use 008b8 v2 or v5 only.

Happy flashing.

I also had that prob, when using Sebastian 1.52 with the mod. Tried every possible config and just getting the messages when i turn on my Display. Also the Su app takes very long to respond. Then i flashed Kernel reset, Sebastian Kernel ans only the -9% uv ans everything Works like it should again...

[HTC Sensation] ivicask:
To be honest, no other works properly besides default one for me.

I tried Friendcaster, i ticked HIGH resolution, and contact pictures where so bad, 2 times worst than default app.

Also it didint automatically change/link contacts pictures, i had to select one by one to use Friendcaster picture for contact.

And also it didint sync calendar into HTC calendar..and so on..

At the end default sync works perfectly for me!

Hey guys, little OT: have you looked at HTC PROTO specs?? It has sense 4.1 and android 4.0.4 with 768mb of RAM. If the CPU is an S3 will be the perfect rom for porting!!

Searching the web i've found some sites reporting s4 at 1ghz but specs are not official and i hope for s3!
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
If SU takes long to respond, try updating the SU binaries (SU should prompt you for it if it is necessary when you start the SU app).

[HTC Sensation] ivicask:
It has 800x480 Screen so its not perfect for porting, still the best one is VILLE C2, unless that one stops being updated from HTC..
[HTC Sensation] _andrea_:
Didn't notice it.. I think Ville C2 will be updated unless they don't want a class action of the One S users that want an update. They started to sell it also in Europe for the lacks of S4 chipset! I think we have to wait with patience

[HTC Sensation] crunkin:
Hi everyone, switched to this ROM with Sense 4 a couple of days ago, and now I'm planning on flashing another kernel (faux latest, v8b8 I guess) - I've read something about I have to flash a reset zip package, but in faux' thread there are only packages for Sense 3.0 and 3.5 - nothing for Sense 4... could anyone give me a hint what do to/flash?

Searching in this thread I've found a "Powerful Kernel Reset - MOD Remover.zip", but that sounds kinda weird. Is this one the right one? What exactly does it do anyway?

Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] ziaulh.ch:
Here it is.
[HTC Sensation] ziaulh.ch:
It is safe! It just removes previous kernel files, so you dont have to overwrite existing rather write freshones. Better when changing kernel.

Thats great and I agree! So how do you get FB sync working? Care to share? Cause none of the user reported working FB Sync.

Tried that already. Always happens with that mod. Its Not Rom related, tested it on different ones and happened with all of them. Now i stay with sebastians Kernel and the uv mod only and everything works for me...

Same here .. while is updating or installing system lag a lot :) I am with clean Vipers 1.1.0 rom and faux kernel
[HTC Sensation] ivicask:
Erm..flash rom, add facebook account and thats it, it just works..

When you flash ROM DO NOT remove anything facebook related like friendstream or everything will be broken.

But, maybe theres one thing more you can check.

Open Dialer than go to People (just next tab), and first thing you should see suggestion for linking contacts, enter it and alow it to link all.

If you dont see it on same page press MENU->Manage Contacts->Merge Contacts

Also there may be checkmarks which contacts to show in dialer (Facebook, Twitter), just check them all.

Please report back if this is the problem you guys have or something else, but as you can see in pics below working for me as it should (ignore the stupid and croped quality of pics, thats still bad :) )
[HTC Sensation] ziaulh.ch:
Hahaha. My FB gives error while syncing contacts. Dont know why. Couldnt solve it.
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
FB sync working for me too ..i didnt have any problems with it ..and i did nothing to get it work ..as it is working from start

EDIT: ohh wait i used to have this issue long back..and i kinda remember how i solved it ..from facebook app ..logout or completely clear data and cache of the app ..then go to accounts & sync ..there add a new account for facebook ..you need to login from there :)
[HTC Sensation] ivicask:
Check using root explorer or similar that this apks are in your system/app

FriendStream.apk
FacebookEngine.apk
Facebook.apk

Also, if they are, give me logcat when you push sync of facebook and reaches error.

Powerful Kernel Reset ?

Hi,

Gave a quick look at this "Powerfull Kernel Reset" flasher, it will remove loads of config files of different kernels (good), but it will install thermald and mpdecision daemons which are only for Sebs kernel ?! It shouldn't do that.

Also it will replace init.post_boot.sh and init.qcom.post_boot.sh with a non htc stock version ... don't know if that's fine haven't had the time to look at what was removed (there's loads of stuff that won't apply for the Sensation, so it's fine to remove that, if that's all that has been removed), but a reset should reflash original files IMHO.

Plus some ROMs (like ARHD) rely on init.post_boot.sh to execute init.d scripts, other do it from the ramdisk, this init.post_boot.sh does execute them no matter what, which on ROMs that do it from the ramdisk (stock ROM, HNS, VI ... don't know for Viper) will have init.d scripts executed twice ! Not a biggie in general, but if you UV, you'd undervolt twice, and that's

very

a bad idea (say you set UV to -80mV, you'll end up with -160mV, which may be too much for your device).

If you really want to "reset" your ROM, I'd rather suggest you reflash the ROM on top of your current installation, wiping cache and dalvik (no superwipe, no factory reset). That will wipe "/system" and install a new fresh proper ROM.

So you have the fresh default ROM, with all your apps and data untouched.

Do a Nandroid before that, you should do it in any cases when doing stuff like this anyway ;)

JP.
[HTC Sensation] zedrix53:
so ill just clear cache and dalvik and thats it?
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
Hmm .. and reflash the ROM, that's the main dish ;)

JP.

PS: I've highlighted both in my previous post ;)
[HTC Sensation] zedrix53:
Hehe thanks ;)

how can i clean the init.d when installing new kernel?cause i read that when installing aroma it will leave some script
[HTC Sensation] haifish9999:
Try kernel_reset( not Power full kernel reset). I've use it everytime before changes in new kernel. It's so simple to cleaned everything from older and nothing like init.qcom.post_boot.sh......created.
[HTC Sensation] ziaulh.ch:
Facebook is not syncing contacts still. Dont know whats wrong.

[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
I'd need to have a look inside ... "old" remedies tend to be dangerous, and things get "old" incredibly fast around here :D I'd

never

flash something when not knowing what it's going to do, too dangerous for me...

By reflashing the ROM, since "/system" will be wiped, "/system/etc/init.d" will be as well. That's the best way IMHO.

If it's just faux kernel with Aroma, it's not too complicated, you need to delete these two files (whichever exists) :

/system/etc/init.d/98swap

/system/etc/init.d/99z_kernel

My Aroma installer will not add anything else to init.d, but it will change init.post_boot.sh and init.qcom.post_boot.sh with stock htc one and a few rows commented out, zram activation for the first, cpu min. freq. for the latter.

So again, even if it's not too much in this case, still, if you want a proper reset, reflash the ROM, there's no cleaner reset.

NB: But you will lose other MODs as well if you added any, you'll need to reflash those, too !

As I told you, viper comes with bricked, still u think that would be best reset? :)

Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio on VIPER 1.1.0 + FAUX B8 V5
[HTC Sensation] haifish9999:
Ok You right. Try to look inside to find something good or not.
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
Yes, as you get to the real starting point, plus if you use the latest faux, Bricked leftovers are handled by Aroma. Unfortunately that was not yet the case in the more popular 008b8 v5. May be I should make a 008b8 v6 ?

And the "Powerfull reset" is really not a good idea IMHO, because as I said it :

replaces init.post_boot.sh with a non stock version (which executes init.d scripts potentially twice, I just checked

on Viper, they will be run twice !!

)

replaces init.qcom.post_boot.sh with a non stock version

adds thermald & thermald.conf (only to be used with Seb's kernel)

adds mpdecision (only to be used with Seb's kernel)

The first won't matter if you flash faux's, as I replace it with a "proper" one (I hope, it will only executed init.d scripts for ARHD and Elegancia).

The second won't matter either if you flash faux's, as I replace it with a "proper" one as well (with commented out cpu min freq.).

But you still will have binaries lying around and potentially being run that should not (thermald & mpdecision) :(

If you flash Seb's on top of that, I don't know if init.post_boot.sh will be "corrected".

If you flash newer Briked on top of that, I don't know either if init.post_boot.sh will be "corrected" and it might really not appreciate having mpdecision messing with Bricked kernel integrated CPU enabling/disabling.

So I stand by my words, reflashing the ROM is the best way to a clean slate ;)

And after that, knowing what you are actually doing / flashing on top of the fresh ROM, is the best way to a great experience :D

I am a big fan of late Colin McRae, but here you'd better not apply his saying "If in doubt, flat out" and rather use "If in doubt, better not" :cool:

And better not mix every mod / fix / wonder solution ... if you don't understand fully what it's all about, that's a bit like drinking alcohol accross the shelf of the bar, bbbbiiiiiiggggg headache planned for the next day :eek: :laugh:

But that's just my 2 cents worth ... and I don't have exclusivity on truth, but this is what has worked for me in the last, say, ~30 years when I started using computers with my beloved C=64 :cool:

[HTC Sensation] ajay83:
Thanks for the great explanation bud. Very Very much appreciated!

I do think as a tester if a 008b8v6 based on linux 3.0.3.8 just like 008b8v5 could be made (if you get time ?) and people flash this straight after a clean install maybe a lot of people will benefit.

I also have small problems with facebook sync.

In WhatsApp I have six contacts, three contacts are synced with facebook, not the other three.

No idea why.

In the contacts app all are synchronized with facebook.
[HTC Sensation] _andrea_:
Whatsapp is not syncronized with facebook in Sense Roms. Contact photos can be added directly from whatsapp settings, your friends have added their photo from there and you can see that photo.
[HTC Sensation] ziaulh.ch:
That's quite some info dude! This is social service delivered nicely! :P

On the other note, As you recommended I am on Pyramid-ICS-XE-008b10-v3 and it runs fantastically smooth! I overclocked again to see how the battery goes. But as you said, you introduced Bricked kernel removal script and by default Sab's kernel removal script is there. So I felt a clean kernel install this time! But again its too soon to conclude. Let me test it for a couple of days.

Thanks for your support and obviously to Faux!

To all whos lagging with whatever kernel, I can confirm that Pyramid-ICS-XE-008b10-v3 will save you from the lagging nagging pain. I checked all the init.d script etc and previous kernel files and its pretty much clean!

Thanks!

Wouldn't that be akin to having sense 4 on android 2.3? I think they might have to start from a ville c2 ruu instead of their current Rom because of framework changes. It should be easier to go to 4.0.4, though it might mean they'll have to fix some stuff again since it won't be the same base.
