Hey guys, great ROM Bruce I just decided to flash your ROM I really been wanting to try it out I think I will be staying on.

Question. How come I cannot get Google play store work when I download the apk file from the internet? I cannot get the gapps to download in the OP.
[HTC Sensation] marcjw:
Yep, this works for me too. Good enough until next build.
[HTC Sensation] destinromie93:
Hey guys the link is back up!!!
[HTC Sensation] Ducter:
OK, for the sake of looking like an idiot, where in the hell are the adrino drivers? I have looked and searched to no avail...I am sure I am just missing them some where..thanks
[HTC Sensation] tobitege:
Can confirm with Oct 18 build (fresh/clean install):

although phone does go into Deep Sleep when screen is off, the Settings->Battery screen now shows a 100% "Awake" bar, not even a single stripe of being not awake at any time (even with Wifi/mobile/BT/Sync etc. all off).

Other than that, other previous wakelocks are gone for good (e.g. deleted_wake_locks).

I have a hunch, that it might be the disabled background data option firing in the background, need to check... Edit 2: nope, no change in behavior.

Great progress, Bruce, appreciated!

Edit 1: nice addition from CM team also in newest build: touch the time or date in the notification bar to open alarm and calendar.
[HTC Sensation] Mesaman2012:
Hey Bruce I have never lost complete signal with tmobiles data and WiFi but after flashing 17,18 build I lost all sense of data connection so I had to go back to a sense Rom which sucks.If you have any spare time and can think of any ideas to help me get data back with your Rom it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!!

[HTC Sensation] vernon092487:
this is not a rom problem..it is a known problem with Chrome..
[HTC Sensation] kaesekopf:
Do you use any browsers that dont have this issue?
[HTC Sensation] slopppy:
I've never had a problem with Dolphin Mini
[HTC Sensation] roccatkone:
Chrome is one big problem.

It was preinstalled on my Nexus 7, but you can't scroll on a big page without stuttering and reloading parts of the site. I installed the default ICS browser and everything is fine. :)
[HTC Sensation] gsmyth:
Dolphin browser beta, works great and is about half the size of chrome. Def check it out.
[HTC Sensation] kaesekopf:
Up until this weekend, I used virtuous Inquisition, which build came from like April. Never once had a chrome issue, even with close to twenty tabs open

I have two tabs open on this ROM (CM10/Kang/etc) And Chrome glitches up, keyboard disappears, and then crashes. The best is when the phone freezes.

So it seems to be less a problem with chrome than this ROM, far as I can see (which, admittedly, isn't very far) . I like it otherwise, I just wish the glitchiness of chrome wasn't an issue and it froze up less/could handle more. I've hady phone freeze on this ROM like eight tk ten times, including a forced restart (and a reboot to get the phone workable again). I've had it for under a week. J used VI for months and never had an issue with it. And if I did, it wasn't to this magnitude.
[HTC Sensation] NinetoFive:
Has there been a resolution to this GPS wakelock thing? If you don't restart the phone after turning GPS on and then off, it has a solid wake lock.

It doesn't seem practical (or good for battery life) to have to restart the phone everytime you want to enable GPS. I've resorted to just not having GPS on at all.
[HTC Sensation] STk3000:
Still getting full wakelock on latest build ...
[HTC Sensation] roccatkone:
Yep, that's waaaay too much. I've got wakelocks, too, but it decreases my total battery life just by 2-3 hours..
[HTC Sensation] jheysl2:
Lol wtf
[HTC Sensation] slopppy:
Doesn't seem ideal ... but also doesn't seem to affect battery life too much. Those 8ish hours of solid wakelock and screen off didn't seem to use much battery.
[HTC Sensation] ximmox:
You're welcome to stick to the outdated VI, I haven't had a single freeze on this room for the past several weeks, so it seems to be an issue on your end, too.

The chrome bug is known, though, but seems hard to fix.

Stock browser is working perfectly well as alternative.
[HTC Sensation] tobitege:
Same here, as long as the drain stays barely noticeable, I'm fine with the wakelock till it's fixed (if fixable).
[HTC Sensation] jaistanley:
Hi guys,

I have just re-installed this ROM after going back to CM9 for a while. It looks as though many of the gripes I had have been resolved. Excellent!

Unfortunately the keyboard is still on the fritz in Chrome. I have scanned back through the post but it is vast. Is there a workaround or fix for this yet?

Kind regards,

Jai Stanley
[HTC Sensation] roccatkone:
One thing to say off topic: The advertisments in the xda-forums are annoying. I don't want a Chinese wife, I don't have pimples, therefore I need no skin creme and to top all this, I don't want to get forwarded to a porn site when I open this site for the first time with my mobile phone!!
[HTC Sensation] nba1341:
On 10/18 version with a full wipe. Phone still constantly awake with screen off...?
[HTC Sensation] flawlessx92:
Hi, thanks for the hard work. I really love this ROM but i only have one problem. The sound output of the speaker is low on maximum compare to ViperS 1.3.5 (with XLoud tweak). Its a bit tricky as i use my phone as alarm to wake me up daily. Is there something you can do to increase the volume output louder similar to Xloud tweak in ViperS?. Thanks
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
Well RC's, RD's and RT's have the privilege to have add less template :D

Edit: wait if you are getting adds over mobile app... Purchase the premium one ;)
[HTC Sensation] tobitege:
No, Chrome still has issues it seems.
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
Volume boost and couple of other apps?

[HTC Sensation] Pjay12:
With a root file explorer, go to system/etc and find a file called TPA2051_CFG_XC.csv

Open it and edit the 7th line (count from the top) towards the end of the string of characters there should be something that looks like

, 0x5..., there should be a number (5 or 6 I think?) where the ... are. change it to either 9 or A.

Either 0x59 or 0x5A. Save reboot and test speaker output. Credits to mudhi I believe.
[HTC Sensation] rhd-android:
Is everyone else still getting the massive visual glitches in Chrome?

If so - shouldn't that be considered a "not working" item?

My Chrome becomes almost unusable with this rom.
[HTC Sensation] jazzzzzzz:
Scrolling has become much better in 18th build
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
Its the same for every jb ROM with adreno GPU, qcom need to release a fixed driver.

Its not a bug its an incompatible app that is not included in the ROM so won't appear in buglist.
[HTC Sensation] Catnap:
That's not really "constantly awake", is it? To be honest, that looks perfectly normal.
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
Every thing that is wakeing the phone now seem to be Google apps, there's not much I can do to fix their apps, the kernel has no wakelock anymore.

I would look for the problem apps and disable them if you don't use them.

In a complete reversal from 10/15, 10/18 is working flawlessly. Clean flash. Data works. Wi-Fi works. Audio works. Basically everything...

The only things not performing perfectly are those known issues.

So thanks once again Bruce for the tireless efforts and great results. This install is as good as it's ever been, and probably better than ever.

Cheers dude,

Using Nova launcher, since I was on virtuous inquisition ICS ROM and its great, tried others out of curiosity but didnt feel they were as good.
[HTC Sensation] StuartTheFish:
Nova gets my vote too.
[HTC Sensation] Pulinski:
+1 for Nova. Especially with the $0.25 upgrade a week or 2 back.
[HTC Sensation] nba1341:

If this ROM is essentially now just an update of the CM nightlies codebase for the Sensation, what's the reason this isn't just ported over to the guys at Cyanogenmod and then it'd be updated automatically by them?

[HTC Sensation] roccatkone:
I don't use any XDA-app, but if I visit the page with my mobile phone, and even if I chose "show desktop version", the site redirects me to a porn site. Okay, it redirects me just once a day, but this is annoying.

To be more precise: The type of advertisement content is really lousy. I may want to see notebooks, pcs, mobile phones and such stuff, but I don't want to marry a Chinese wife, I don't want to get cremes to lose any pimples, ...

If XDA wants to be a serious site, it has to use serious advertisement.

Good idea, if want XDA to lose their servers. I see the advertisement, XDA gets money and I can use the site for free, but the content of the advertisement should be sth. different.
[HTC Sensation] edwardmlyte:
Aren't adverts based on your browsing history ;)

Transparent Status Bar?

First, thanks a lot for the rom, it rocks!!!

I'm searching for a tweak to have transparent status bar like I had on older ICS roms that I've used in my HTC Sensation...

is there any way to have it?

does somebody know if this Mod will work? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1835829

for sure man..it's the best launcher i ever try :D nova prime!!!

So, what really helps to improve battery life is deactivating Google Now.

The constant active phases are then reduced radically (at least for me).
[HTC Sensation] nba1341:
Same here. I love google now but I like having more than 2 hours of screen on time so I disable it.
[HTC Sensation] Nemphys:
Just wanted to share something that made me jealous last night:

I met with a friend that has the Galaxy Nexus and received JB through OTA recently.

I had never used the device before, but I was astonished to find out that it felt much smoother than my Sensation with the latest (10/18) Bruce's ROM.

Also, the transition animations and especially the speed of showing/hiding the status bar was a lot quicker than on my phone, although the respective settings in developer options where set to 1.0x (checked that immediately after I realized the speed difference).

Since the hardware specs of the two phones are almost identical (the GNex has a little more RAM, but I don't think that makes any real difference), I am wondering why there is such a difference.

I know that this ROM is the smoothest I ever installed on my phone, but I would really like to know what is left to fix

Bottom line: could this happen because of the not-optimal video drivers?

Also, is vsync and triple buffering implemented in this ROM? If not, is it a kernel issue?

Any insights from Bruce would be appreciated.
[HTC Sensation] katiepea:
Try cm10 on a sgs3, will make you want to throw your sensation out the window
[HTC Sensation] FeatherM:
Bruce on the next build, could you please add the new Google Calendar to the build, at the moment I have both :/
[HTC Sensation] MAMeingast:
Just to clarify: The mod you linked does not provide a transparent status bar, but a transparent status bar drawer! ;)

I too would love a semi-transparent status bar! If you find something, let me know! :D
[HTC Sensation] HeXDeMoN:
I agree just wish it had intellidemand
[HTC Sensation] ximmox:
Updated from 13th to 18th, now the automatic brightness without enabling the filter is broken again, it doesn't dim the screen as it used to, only goes brighter. :(

Haven't had a look at recent commits that might broke it (again), hoped it was finally fixed for good.

[HTC Sensation] STk3000:
Yea but after i charge the phone the indicator starts decreasing after about 1 hour of regular use.... so i charge it to 100 and after even 3 hours screen off it may still show 100%...

Wakelock does use some battery but im more affraid of processor and hardware wear and tear... my phone hasnt slept well in 2 months since bruce got his cmx to do voice calls... in the third or so build...
[HTC Sensation] Nemphys:
I will, but that was not my point.

We do have JB running in our devices (even not provided by HTC).

I would just like to know if the issues are kernel/driver related, if vsync/triple buffering is already enabled, etc (if they are not, we should see a great difference when/if those features are implemented in the rom).

Now the SD card speed is The only thing that sucks in this ROM ....I get 1mbps....where I have a class 10 card which supports 10mbps above
[HTC Sensation] vernon092487:
tbis is a known issue with cm9 and cmx..Vorbeth, the previous developer of Opensensation bricked his phone while trying to fix the sd speed issue..

what you can do is transfer the files while in recovery..
[HTC Sensation] roccatkone:
I don't really know, why every ROM isn't really smooth. Even the apps drawer looks a lot smoother on the Nexus 7 than on the Sensation.

It's even worse on the HTC EVO 3D. My friends and me call it "lagtacle" (lag + spectacle) :laugh:

I think it's about the driver or some basic settings in the kernel. The Sensation's processor should have at least the same speed as the GNex (theoretically).

My BT-wakelock problems are gone with version 10/18!

Thanks Bruce!
[HTC Sensation] James1o1o:
Does this honestly fix it?

If so, that narrows down the problem in the rom causing it! Bruce should definitely take a look at this.

If you don't like it then just buy Tapatalk. I have no ads and it's good for a lot more than just XDA. Of course I also bought XDAs premium app just to support them, though I don't use it.

It seems a little choppy using Nautilus in Ubuntu but that could just be Nautilus being weird. it is definitively faster for me. Getting around 6MB/s write speeds which is a definite improvement over 1-1.5.
[HTC Sensation] takuhii:
I am well aware that XDA rely on advertising, but they only make money if we click on them, and Chinese Wives aren't really high on the agenda. Ads for phones and technology I can deal with as that is what this site is all about. Punting me ads that bear no relevance to the site I am on, or my search/browsing history for that matter is a fruitless exercise, as the likelyhood is that no-one will click on them, therefore generating no revenue :/

[HTC Sensation] James1o1o:
Confirmed, the read and write speed over USB transfer increased dramatically using that program. It must be the way that that CyanogenMod mounts the SD card.

I'm seeing the words MTP being thrown around a lot, I'm ignorant on the subject, but it definitely seems that this program mounts the card differently to Android does, which in turn fixes the problem.

how to use internet pass through in this ROm ..... is der a particular app for it....is der a way to overclock the gpu and cpu of dis rom
[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
Nevermind this post. It solved nothing. The alarm manager is still going strong.
[HTC Sensation] dkephart:
"Internet pass-through" is tethering via USB and yes, this is in the ROM. Connect the phone to the PC, go to Settings -> More... -> Tethering & portable hotspot, select USB tethering. This was literally answered on the previous page, by the way.

Overclock is in Settings->Performance->Processor... it comes overclocked to 1566MHz, with 192MHz minimum.

I would also suggest reading more, using the Search feature of XDA, and checking out the settings of the ROM on your own.

[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
I cant do a screenshot right now, but the kernel wakelocks are clean. Just a handfull of things with 10second locks.

Its the partial wakelocks screen that shows the problems with alarm manager and event service log.

Unfortunately that fix I posted 2 hours ago turned out to be completely worthless. Both alarm manager and event log were still blazing away after a while.

Ive removed that post so no one else wastes time with it. I will keep experimenting to see what else I can shut down.

1. They use the same AOSP stock browser.

2. No, you can't install it in this Rom, the browser is the same, tablet options are Rom specific.

3. You can find it with the search, you already said it's name?! :what:
[HTC Sensation] sanderg:
USB speed

I noticed the USB speed (when mounting the phone as USB device) is quite slow. Copying the ROM to my phone is taking more than 3 minutes.

Could that be related to something in the ROM or a setting?

Edit: I should have searched :)
