Anyone else experiencing errors when trying to use wifi direct? I tried to use it with my friend's new Galaxy SIII, and after the pairing request, SIII says unable to connect, while my sensation only says "invitation sent". If the other phone tries to start the pairing, sometimes even the pairing request is not arriving. I can't try it with anyone else. Vipers 1.4.1 with bricked 3.0.36 (from venom hub)
[HTC Sensation] Koenhen:
Sorry but i don't think it works.... :(

screenshot of what i get is attached so hope you can tell me what the problem can be... :confused:

grtz and thanks again for yor explaination :good:
[HTC Sensation] :
I've been having this problem with rebooting. When I try to reboot using the reboot option, it would get stuck at the HTC quietly brilliant screen, and I have to pull the battery out. Would flashing the ROM over it fix the problem? This has been present since 1.3.5 :(
[HTC Sensation] 7OOKA:
also facing same problem, cant play mostwanted sense keep restarting while in game, looks like heavy ram apps have a bad effect on sense

hope to find fix for that bug

other than that excellent rom
[HTC Sensation] elvisypi:
I never had any problem with rebooting, but sometimes, rarely it gets stuck while trying to get to recovery. I have no idea what causes it.

the ViperS experience

I've been running ViperS 1.41/Bricked/Apex for a couple weeks now after trying a few other ROMS.

By far, this has been the most stable with OpenSense 2nd.

I never would have thought a Sensed ROM could be this stable after the OEM experience with FroYo.

Pros:

Stable default music app, doesn't skip or blip when it starts. I didn't really car about Beats, but it does work pretty well.

Music app takes the phone ring interruption cleanly. Syncs well with iSyncr OSX.

Default SMS with big view/edit view space like the FroYo app.

Swipe2Wipe! That rocks! No more killing the power button.

Smooth scroll 99% of the time.

Long press Home to recent apps works well.

Not being a Tweaker, the few I use are quite nice. I just want a stable phone with WiFi Calling and ViperS does it.

The camera and touch-focus to auto snap work well.

Plays well with all apps and the few games I have.

At first I didn't like the Quick Setting pull down as compared to just touching the bar. But I quite like them now.

Battery life seems pretty good. I did some tweaks the other day based on a post here by sarkar_007. (search "best battery life now")

The App Installer is monster!

I dig having the FM radio back.

The hub is handy and I tried some themes and kernels, but I'm back to Bricked with the afore mentioned changes.

Cons: (some of which aren't really ROM related)

ICS lockscreen:

Wish one could:

Choose or remove the next calendar alarm and add the current local weather info.

Make up to 7 lock screen short cuts available. (3rd party app available, but I haven't tried yet.)

Overall, I wish it were more configurable.

I'd like to have the ICS (I think) CRT down animation. (3rd party app made a mess) or something more interesting than it is. Small point.

Notification/Status Bar

Ability to remove the USB icon, I mean I can see the cable, huh?

Ability to send vCard attachment via gMail, currently not an available choice without adding Mail to the apps, but maybe I can get use to Mail and delete G.

Capitalise GPS in Quick Settings.

Templates (text expansions) in SMS. (open Sense has this, with a screen touch, very handy) (3rd party app I haven't tried).

Gmail line length. Some all text (no HTML or graphics) come in wider than the portrait screen. Some what annoying, but I imagine this is a function of the senders device rather than the ROM.

I miss FroYo Gallery widget as an additional home-screen. (maybe there's a widget I haven't found)

I miss FroYo stock widget for an additional home-screen as well.
[HTC Sensation] ziaulh.ch:
Never had one single sense restart. Most wanted is not heavy game. I play Asphalt 7, Nova 3 and currently Modern Combat 4. Smooth as Butter. Perhaps enabling ZRAM helps for gaming. ;)

If you had problem like this with your 1.3.5 and flashing update on that then its obvious that it will remain. Its better to start with frresh in your case. Be careful with kernels. Do not flash too many because it leaves footprints and causes problem. Try to use bricked which comes with rom as the dev suggested and i know its BEST so far.
[HTC Sensation] cganesh75:
I am on 1.3.5 and i do see this problem. but not all the time.
[HTC Sensation] leviathian:
Maybe you could try setting min free in viper tweaks to a multitasking setting, paired up with the autostart manager app to prevent unwanted app from being kept in ram. Instead, with multitasking min free setting, more 'wanted' apps are kept in ram.
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Doubt that is going to happen as its not just disabled in the code but also in the libs which are harder to edit
[HTC Sensation] sonnhy:

Got the same problem.. fast battery drain.. Please someone answer him!
[HTC Sensation] Harbir:
Mostwanted is smooth but its not the smoothness problem .the problem is the gost of the lock screen seen when playing heavy apps only
[HTC Sensation] elvisypi:
These are the apps loaded in ram, and I never opened any of them. Is there any way to replace these default apps with other ones?

Do they come back when you close all? They should not!

---------- Post added at 12:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:32 AM ----------

Its very difficult to say from this end cause there hasnt been an issue like it because of the ROM. So I assume it must be your battery. But to be sure you may check with other rom and for your CM9 or 10 is best. Especially CM10 which is the best ROM considering battery life but without Sense ofcourse. I believe its battery.
[HTC Sensation] elvisypi:
No the don't come back immediately, but after a while most of these apps come back

Help me plzzzzzzz

Hello Everyone

First of all i would like to thank all of the community members for their continious help and support. I am having the following problem with my phone [HTC SENSATION - HBOT -1.27.1100, RADIO -11.24A..., please have a look and let me have your suggestions as how to rectify it to get my phone back to me ---

- Viper rom 1.35 was installed for quite a long time, it was working fine.

-i wanted to try a new rom so as usual i made nanodrop and tried to flash a new rom x,y,z////.

-everything seemed fine, i didn’t liked the rom after flashing so i went back to 4ext backup and opted to restore....a usual process....

-after restore, what i did is, after restore is completed i went to wipe cache/delvik cache and cleared it. and then i pressed reboot........

---not everything screwed after that....,my phone is stuck at the boot screen......

tried again and again....., i then flashed viper1.35 fresh> reboot> same problem> screen stuck on boot

- i though maybe this is due to error in the firmware so in flashed the latest PGM.... firmware 3.33 i guess> then full wipe> flashed new rom----same result

- i tried 5 other rom types which use to work fine and smooth before that....but everything is stuck on boot screen.....

I couldn’t figure it out whats the problem...>>>>??????/

any guesses and solutions
[HTC Sensation] cyber_system:
This is because the string have already been add, so it should be working :)

Have you done a manuel sync, rebooted your device ?

Check that your facebook account is correctly configurated, in people app press on phonebook besides search buttom (where you can select which contacts to show, and make sure that facebook in checked :)

You also have to link your contact to their facebook :)
[HTC Sensation] elvisypi:
Try flashing boot.img of viper with fastboot (extract it from viper ROM)
[HTC Sensation] sonnhy:
New update?

Hope for performance one..

I'm sure the battery isn't the problem, i've tested with SoM and the battery last twice longer..
[HTC Sensation] Sharpi1:
Just a new idea I was thinking about.. what about folder tweaks, that the folders can be changed and looks like round aosp folders? Is that possible? That would be innovative and simply amazing :)
[HTC Sensation] EndOfDays-Wildfire:
Do you guys also experience sudden reboots when you try to use Camera(Stock, also camera apps like Camera Zoom FX) using 1.4.1? Is there maybe a fix for that bug?

Thanks in advance.

Try shadow gun deadzone it can't be played as it requires user name and as the ram is low no keyboard appears.

Review ur kernel and uv settings. Neutralize UV.

---------- Post added at 03:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:59 AM ----------

Are you kidding me? Keyboard requires less than 10 mb ram!! I played that game for like an hour then deleted it because I didnt like it. No such issues.

---------- Post added at 03:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:01 AM ----------

Cant be ROM problem either. Go for a fresh full wiped flashing and wait a day or two for the proper battery life. A rom cant do it unlesd your battery driver is reading wrong or else you have wakelocks. Check with battery manager pro. Caliberate to let your device write new data.

Thats a function of theme. Can be done.

---------- Post added at 03:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:08 AM ----------

Played that to check then uninstalled it. Not a problem! Afterall a keyboard requires less than 10 mb ram! ;)

Theres something else wrong with your system.
[HTC Sensation] chrisrj28:
+1 Aosp folders are much more attractive
[HTC Sensation] Harbir:
Then it must be the apk issue i will delete it and redownload again .otherwise the gost issue is still there

I notice that this problem start when i use bricked kernel, and even more with badass, conservative (and maybe another) governor. Anyone can help me?

thanks...
[HTC Sensation] reficuliu:
Good observation. I believe this is the first time someone has suggested a cause to the ghosting.

Had this issue for a while now, several versions back.

I'm glad (read somewhere in recent posts) this will be resolved :)
[HTC Sensation] iverson3-1:
What can I do to get more speed and smoothness when multitasking? I used anthrax kernel and it was super fast but killed my battery to much. Now I'm using pydx and it's fast but I still get those annoying sense stutters sometimes.

[HTC Sensation] cleonjones:
Does ViperS use something other than MMS.apk? Trying to edit the max mms resolution but all I see is Messaging.apk in the rom. Anyone know if I need to modify the messaging.apk or could I add a modified MMS.apk?
[HTC Sensation] Metalsauce:
If you read up on the Badass governor, it has the CPU at one frequency until more power is required, then it increases to the max frequency. So if you unlock your phone for example, the processor only needs a bit of power to render, and it sits at 918 MHz. IIRC those are the default settings and standard behaviour for Badass, and the battery life is usually pretty good for most people.

Anyway hope that helps
[HTC Sensation] ziaulh.ch:
That is message.apk. No other apk is involved. Where did you try to edit max resolution?
[HTC Sensation] TJD319:
Ive had a bunch of rebooting issues lately and some strange battery jumps during the reboots. No cause or reason to them it seems either. Also have been having strange telephony issues as well.

I dont blame Venom, i blame myself for ever changing kernels. I went back to bricked v1.36 and let it settle in. Also ive switched radios to the one ive found best. And yesterday i flashed the 3.32 T-Mobile USA firmware, pfeviously had 3.33 universal. Ive also re-calibrated my battery.

I know my Sensation is older now, ive owned this phone for a year and a half and its very possible my battery is failing/dying. Im looking into getting a new one.

Since doing all of this, ive had a lot more stability in many ways. Telephony seems fine again and the weird reboot + battery stuff hasnt happened.

[HTC Sensation] ziaulh.ch:
Yo know, these hings have been told again and again.

How to solve over-experimented kernel flashing issues?

Ans: Reflash theROM without wiping. It will write fresh kernel script and override all past changes. And FYI, Bricked is more than capable of satisfying your needs even if you are advanced gamer and also want BEST battery outcomes. ;)

How to check if batter if damaged?

Ans: Use Battery monitor widget pro and full charge from 0 to check how much MaH it detects from your battery and how is your battery draining.

It could be better, but I played some games :D

No shutdowns, reboots...

Everything is working fine and smooth.

Turn the keyboard on via settings->language. Then when the old keyboard pops up to type you'll see a keyboard icon in your statusbar. Drag that down and select your keyboard to default. See screenshot.

[HTC Sensation] Stephen:
More information please.

Assuming you have an htc sensation and not the one x as shown on your signature, what hboot and firmware are you sitting on. You need to be at least firmware 3.32 to get a sense 4 rom to boot. What rom are you currently using.

I love the rom, but i have an annoying issue that made me not use it. touchscreen works unproperly.

Can anyone confirm that or maybe tell me how to fix it? :D

this download speed is amazing, 34.3 kB/s 3 hours for rom :>
[HTC Sensation] ivicask:
I get 500kb+ download, so it problem from your side :/
[HTC Sensation] axetilen:
the thing prevents you from having good battery life is Stock Battery

changing to any kernel wont bring any significant result if you still have this :)

I have that 1520 battery too and I always want to change to an S3 unless I have an anker

if you want a better battery life with Bricked, download v1.36 from his website. then reflash and choose battery save (choppy)

this method can save some juice but it is not good for performance

I think the more effective way is using performance preset of badass in aroma menu and choose a lower cpu frequency
[HTC Sensation] fanbogo:
can someone put another link ? other files download with normal speed 2000-8000 kB, Poland cant download with max speed from this site ?
[HTC Sensation] hunt:
Thanx axetilen for helping me everytime :thumbup:

Just Reflashed the Rom with Bricked Kernel and set "Ondemand" as governor and will keep watch, and then will underclock using Kernel Tuner depending on my needs...

But after reflashing I come across with an issue...already posted earlier that..
[HTC Sensation] axetilen:
try to go to venom tweaks and then fix permission ...

do a reboot if you want

I have 1 suggestion for battery life you you interested

try to disable (freeze) an app called Friendstream

if your battery is better (can't be significant :)), uninstall it forever

or if there is something wrong, you can re-enable/unfreeze it
[HTC Sensation] Rumball:
Your grammar certainly is....

What is required to flash this ROM, i cant see any instructions in first post :/

custom recovery

firmware 3.33/3.32.

full wipe and flash
[HTC Sensation] axetilen:
FW 3.33 for the best result

S-off for easier work

4ext touch recovery the latest version for the best compatible

done

just flash the ROM and it will do everything for you
[HTC Sensation] Gradjevinac:
I gues, am good to go then. :)

Thanks. :)
[HTC Sensation] Harbir:
you should try and select less than 1566mhz in aroma , remover uv or reduce it .i also use anthrax kernel and never ever face such problem.
[HTC Sensation] hunt:
Thanx axetilen....It works...font issue got sloved...

Now, how to freeze friend stream app ?

1 more question related to firmware---> Once I tried FW 3.33 with ARHD, and result as Signal drop..means sometimes my phone says Switched off while calling from my friend's Phone...even if My phone is switched on...!!!

Radio/RIL was also matching...then what could be the Problem...Rom flash prblm or radio prblm....!!!!:confused:

Edit:: disable Friend stream from Settings/Apps...is this the way ?
[HTC Sensation] axetilen:
I have no idea but the matching RIL for your current radio is 4.0.0.37. GetRIL may say 4.0.0.37[2] (it is 4.0.0.36 included in this ROM) but they are both OK

I'm using FW 3.33 (LOCKED) from ARHD thread too but I changed into jounoputbear one to get Unlocked bootloader

I think RIL in ARHD and the firmware should be matched because he mentions that in his post:confused:

download from the RIL thread of stempox

flash the RIL 2 times in the recovery and then reboot (in order to prevent wifi or signal loss after flashing RIL -> I have faced sometimes if I only flash 1 time)

disable friendstream: you're right

or you can use apps to to that
[HTC Sensation] elvisypi:
While talking on the phone, sometimes I have a problem. Normally the screen should turn on when I place the phone away from my face, right? Well sometimes my screen doesn't turn on unless I push the power button. Anyone else experienced this? Also it would be nice if the screen wouldn't turn on so fast because sometimes I accidentaly press the lowdspeaker while calling
[HTC Sensation] wildcontigo:
It has to do with bricked scripts on the system/etc and system/etc/init.d

Once you get rid of those scripts you'd enjoy the benefits of the best Rom and kernel combo, period.
[HTC Sensation] Harbir:
that i know as i have already done that but he is talking of the bootloops.
[HTC Sensation] wildcontigo:
Then it is just the frequencies selected during flashing
[HTC Sensation] Harbir:
that's what i thought so i think he has to reduce the frequency during install in aroma
[HTC Sensation] lollixo:
thank you! I read badass does not goes under 918mhz, and if so, how could I see minor frequences with elegancia rom? why smartassV2 governor (forbidden kernel) stay at a low freq at start but after 5 minutes (about) goes up until 1.56 and never goes down? sometimes even the second core works at maximum freq in idle? is it normal?

I guess that there are not differences between sensation and sensation XE, so what frequences does your cpu (with forbidden kernel, smartassV2) "work" in idle?

What about mpdecision, is it better Rom or Kernel?

Thanks!!!
