I am currently on ARHD 6.7.0. I want to flash this ROM now. I assume the correct procedure would be as follows:

1. Take nandroid backup of current ROM

2. Wipe data partition

3. Wipe cache partition

4. Wipe dalvik cache

5. Flash ViperS ROM

Am I correct or am I missing any step?
[HTC Sensation] mrquidz:
1. Nandroid

2. Flash the viper, there is a choice for full wipe during installation, choose it.
[HTC Sensation] sarkar_007:
Is there any particular kernel that I should choose during installation or just accept the default one?
[HTC Sensation] icanttinkofaname:
We can't advise/condone the use of these apps as they're not official download sources.

There is only one kernel available during install.

[HTC Sensation] Philips9:
If you choose default kernel(badass balanced) you have a very small battery drain(but the rom may have some small ).

If you choose On demand governor you have smoother rom, but more battery drain...

You have to choose and experiment and draw conclusions ;)

---------- Post added at 08:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:33 AM ----------

It isn't true! During installation you can choose different types of governor and frequency of the cpu
[HTC Sensation] icanttinkofaname:
It is true. There is only bricked kernel. Governors are not the same as kernels. If he was asking about governors, sure, there's plenty to choose from, but he can't choose between bricked or SebastianFM kernels during install. If he wants Seb's kernel he has to flash it separately.

Just wanted to know whether it is cause of the kernel or ROM. Can you help me by naming a good application to download mp3 please?.

Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] Philips9:
I'm sorry I'm confused ...

I read the question of Sharpi1 (wich gov?)

And I thought you were responding to him.

I did not realize that sarkar_007 asked about the kernel.

excuse
[HTC Sensation] icanttinkofaname:
I can't give you any names or links as those apps permit illegal downloads. It is unlikely that the issue is either Rom or kernel as your internet works fine. your service provider is probably the issue.

what can I do to fix anyone no or heard it had this issue?

Also it doesn't happen when I am playing games or anything else just videos!!

Is my phone bricked

I have have rooted my phone with One X All in one kit. After that i installed ROM manager APK. With the help Rom Manager app i installed viper 1.01 ROM . After getting message ROM installed successfully phone went to reboot and now Phone hangs on HTS Sensation logo.

Please help me..

Does anyone succesfully install nvdia plugin from chainfire3D in this ROM??
[HTC Sensation] dalco:
No i have not checked md5 made a big mistake. Will my phone return to normal.
[HTC Sensation] sarkar_007:
Done as per your instruction. Went of well without any hiccups. Thank you.

I am coming from ARHD where one could choose which kernel to install so I asked. BTW, I haven't the foggiest what a kernel is, which kernel does what or which is better or worse.

I choose 1408mhz CPU speed while installation but I found the phone lagging. How can I change the frequency now after installation is done? Any app for it?

------------------------------------------------

A special thanks to Team Venom for making this wonderful ROM!!! Sense 4 is beautiful and I am getting to experience it without buying a new phone. So far whatever I tested is working well. GPS, Wifi, FM Radio, Camera etc.

A few queries:

- In sense 3.6 avi files could also be played in gallery. But in this ROM they cant be played. Did HTC remove support? I can always play those files in MoboPlayer so it doesnt matter but just asking what the reason is.

- Sound stutters while playing video in Moboplayer if earphone is plugged in. No stutter through loudspeaker. So I guessing it is a Sound Enhancer issue.

- A small icon used to appear in camera interface (top right) to indicate that picture isnt steady in sense 3.6 but it doesnt in sense 4. We have no idea of knowing whether our hands are steady enough or not.

- Why did HTC remove the 'holographic blur' live wallpaper? It was my favorite!

Thanks once again to everyone involved in this project. Cheers!
[HTC Sensation] mrquidz:
why did you use rom manager? maybe you should try using 4ext recovery to flash it.

---------- Post added at 02:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:35 PM ----------

To sarkar_007,

1. Glad it worked. :)

2. This rom comes with bricked v1.36. For now stick with Bricked kernel only (as others have problem with wifi i think), you may update to bricked v1.4 if you want.

3. Yes! download 'system tuner' apps from play store and change the max cpu to any. Then click boot settings > apply on boot.

4. Other enquiries are beyond my knowledge.. sorry.
[HTC Sensation] tsrzealot:
Instead of raising the frequency even more, you might also want to consider trying badass performance instead of badass balanced, sticking with the frequency or even lowering it (I'm running it at 1.35GHz, undervolted by 75mV [system tuner can do that, too] and I find it to be pretty fluent).
[HTC Sensation] sarkar_007:
I have very little knowledge of this stuff and dont want to screw up by attempting complicated things.
[HTC Sensation] tsrzealot:
That's why personally, I wouldn't necessarily go with overclocking (I mean raising it to something like 1,7GHz. It would still most likely be finde, but it's questionable if one really needs this) on this ;)

And in order to chose badass performance, you just have to select it during the installation of the ROM. The undervolting is just a nice thing on top. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but it can't damage your device, while overvolting could, so all you might risk are stability issues and if they arise, just revert to the default voltages. You can, of course, slowly approach the 75mV (or whatever you chose) in 12,5mV steps.
[HTC Sensation] eruan:
Bricked 1.4
[HTC Sensation] dalco:
Is there any way out?
[HTC Sensation] tsrzealot:
What firmware do you have? What recovery do you use? And you're S-Off, right? Can you still enter the recovery?
[HTC Sensation] dalco:
I installed ViperS 1.0.1 ROM with S-ON. I have Unlock phone from HTC Dev website. I can still enter in recovery while going in recovery it shows PG58IMG.zip missing
[HTC Sensation] DontHaveAMainAccount:
Hi Team Venom, were the long press button tweaks created for your rom or were they incorporated into it from another source?
[HTC Sensation] sssurfer:
Lol... :D

I had a feeling that someone WILL post something like this..

Anyways, I was just asking about it in a funny way..... You've problem with it ??! Don't reply then...

Take it easy man. :rolleyes:

- sent from my Venomous Viper..
[HTC Sensation] tsrzealot:
I think you're talking about the bootloader and not the recovery. Have you flashed a custom recovery like 4ext? I don't know if it's even possible to flash the custom ROM with the integrated custom kernel the way you did it if you're unlocked via HTC dev. You might want to have a look at this guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1631861. And maybe next time, be more careful with randomly installing/flashing stuff. And you still haven't answered if you have updated your firmware to the latest one before trying this.

well done guys.

next step is to install new firmware for better mobile signal

Regarding my battery concern some pages back, I reflashed the rom, flashed latest bricked kernel using badass/performance setting. Set WiFi to never run when screen off, turned off logcat and there is an obvious difference. Much better

Just wanted to come an and say that Team Venom has done a freaking badass job with this rom. The Tweaks that they have incorporated into Sense 4 is just awesome. And pairing it up with Sebastions v1.5 this thing just flies and has great battery life. Went through and themed it and wow, just very impressive. Keep it up team and look forward to the next release, and to your website to be up and running, venomroms.com,

Yesterday I've replaced Bricked Kernel v 1.36 with the newer 1.4, and today I found out that I have the problem with frequencies (cpu max. and min. freq. change whenever they want) again! I really don't know what to do...I've tried with higher values, nothing changes...

[HTC Sensation] realsis:
Hi I have been wondering the exact same thing! I've been following the thread and haven't heard a peep. The only thing I know is if you ask your gonna get one ignored or two nailed hard! Therefore I've avoided asking altogether about it. I've checked the news in venom hub and mine says the same thing it said since the update...maybe my news isn't working correctly ? Or there is none... I don't know but I'm sure when they finished the update they will let us know...I have high hopes for this update . But sorry haven't heard a thing about it either.
[HTC Sensation] eruan:
Try install CPU Master or SetCPU.
[HTC Sensation] Daiskei:
Exactly man, that's why I've waited so long to ask. Lol. I was using this rom for some time as my dd but I needed a few features that aren't working properly just yet so I've gone back to Sense 3.6. However, I really wanna come back to this rom... regardless of whether or not the things I needed are fixed... just prefer to wait for an update before installing, even if I can OTA.
[HTC Sensation] evilmastr:
I think it's kind of weird to post news and then just leave us hanging. But there's not much to do. Gotta respect the devs and the work they've done so far (and for free!).

You're not the only one who's waiting, checking the hub (daily) and wondering what's happening or if it's ever going to happen anything.

Let's hope they (the devs) are enjoying a nice vacation! :)

PS: e.g. shnizlon is not in vacation he's working on update guys.
[HTC Sensation] Daiskei:
I think it's just weird cause there haven't been much of any posts from the devs about the status at all. Most people are used to getting little updates and tidbits of info here and there from rom devs, this rom's devs handle things a little differently though.

Yeah man but every character is different no ?

And there isn't much to say at the moment..
