[HTC Sensation] :
I've been fortunate in that my data drops usually preceded me having to travel to another state within a couple of days, so I've been formulating a theory about how to kickstart my phone into working again. I usually lose data at home in central MA (where, incidentally, I believe that T-Mobile only has one official tower in a 10-mile radius, which would explain the really lousy reception we get here, but I don't know what they have for agreements with other companies' towers and how that would affect that priority certificate thing), and I've tried rebooting my phone in various places in the state (an hour to the east in Boston, 45 minutes to the south just before the CT border, across town, etc.), but I don't get data back that way. Three times, however, I've rebooted my phone after crossing the border into Connecticut, and I've gotten data back immediately. I'm usually within 10-30 minutes of crossing the border when I try this.

Twice, I've lost signal while visiting my friends in CT (about an hour east of New York City). Once, I solved the problem by rebooting after crossing over into NY (the state). Another time, data returned a couple of hours later while I was just sitting in their front yard, but I originally lost signal when I was in the next town over from them. Rebooting my phone (several times) didn't do anything, but I didn't travel more than a few miles that time.

As I've offered before, if any of the CM10 devs want to make a test build with extra logging in it, I'd be happy to run it and give them the results the next time I lose data. I couldn't figure out how to get Bruce's ROM to build, and besides, even though I'm a programmer "in real life," I have no expertise in this area. We might be on CM15 by the time I figure out Android... :laugh:
[HTC Sensation] Tha Maxx:
Yes you must disable after every reboot. There has got to be a way to write a script that automatically does it after each reboot. I am going to see what i can come up with.
[HTC Sensation] Wagedroid:
What's the eta for cm 15 ???

(Kidding)
[HTC Sensation] noooooo:
I can't find google ears between widgets, is this app included in this ROM?

Inviato dal mio HTC Sensation con Tapatalk 2
[HTC Sensation] Wagedroid:
I also had the data issue once when I installed the Oct 5th build but it became stable as soon as I left to another area and got on WiFi. The second I turned WiFi off, viola my data was stable again. Never had the issue after that even with latest builds
[HTC Sensation] nickislauw:
But when I disabled HW overlays, my mp4 video won't play.. it says video cannot be played.

Also when I enable HW overlays, my video will be very ugly. like all big pixels in the screen..

Any options ?
[HTC Sensation] Wagedroid:
Yes please. I always have hw overlay disabled and would love to have it stick after every boot. Thanks for looking into that

Download MX player and use it as default video player. Works great and you can have MX settings decoder set to sw only.
[HTC Sensation] Lawliet:
I'm having problems flashing the 10/10 build. I get "E/SchedPolicy( 113): add_tid_to_cgroup failed; policy=1"

Any ideas?
[HTC Sensation] Stephen:
Try downloading the rom again might be a bad download. Check md5 as well.
[HTC Sensation] Wagedroid:
Download the update again from goo.im and it should be about 146 mb ..
[HTC Sensation] Lawliet:
I've tried a redownload from goo.im and the MD5 hash match but I still get the same error. I'm using CWM to flash the ROM. Should I use 4Ext instead?
[HTC Sensation] Mesaman2012:
Yes try 4 ext.

Bruce2728 Jellybean 4.1.1
[HTC Sensation] Euroman28:
Two things with the October 10th build.

1) Face-unlock doesn't work (app crashes)

2) When you activative bust-mode on rear-camera it can make the camera app crash.

Any idear on howto fix this?
[HTC Sensation] lt1pnyklr:
I would love to be able to run a stock vanilla JB rom but I just cannot deal with the lack of scrolling. The phone itself runs smooth but scrolling through contacts or even a web page is non existent. The way it stutters/sticks and isnt smooth drives me nuts.

I appreciate the amazing work and development of this rom but don't understand why scrolling isn't smooth like the sense roms.
[HTC Sensation] gjunky:
Just loaded 10/10 and everything seems to be working fine. The FFC works although the image quality is pretty poor (I am inside with fluorescent lighting so I am not surprised). Not a comment on the ROM. I think this ROM is fantastic. Great Work Bruce!

I thought the change for 4.1.2 included the rotation of the home screen. It doesn't seem to do this. Was this for the Nexus 7 only?
[HTC Sensation] Lawliet:
Still no luck =/ Am I missing anything? Do you need a /sd-ext partition?
[HTC Sensation] Duncank:
The homescreen rotation in 4.1.2 is for the default Android Launcher. Because this rom uses Cyanogenmods own launcher, Trebuchet, it doesn't affect that. However, if you go to Settings -> Launcher -> General you can enable homescreen rotation. Has been there for a long time already!
[HTC Sensation] MarlinFF:
Hey bruce,

this is the catlog for the SMS's not vibrating during a phone call. http://pastebin.com/U4vZDqSb
[HTC Sensation] gjunky:
Doh, of course. Thank you.
[HTC Sensation] ninjasalad:
For everyone with face unlock crashing, just re flash gapps. Fixed it for me
[HTC Sensation] Daiskei:
Face-unlock actually works fine here, I'm using the modded camera 1.1 though... dunno if that's why. Burst mode is working fine with rear-camera as well. :)
[HTC Sensation] 00damedash:
THE FFC IS FIXED!! :highfive: i just cried tears of joy thank u bruce for all your hard work! :good:
[HTC Sensation] Spr33y:
Hate to ask but do you have "Allow vibrate while on call" checked in messaging settings?
[HTC Sensation] Euler MD:
Thank you Bruce.

I have a question though, this ROM's cell standby eats my battery (50% gone with only 7 min screentime). Is there anyway to save battery through the cell standby?
[HTC Sensation] MarlinFF:
Yep. It doesn't work with GoSMS either
[HTC Sensation] NinetoFive:
Been reading this thread (but not all) and really thinking about jumping from AOKP M6 (ICS) to this but for the last month I've been wary of bugs. But it's looking pretty sweet right now.

From reading this with the latest updates are there any other things malfunctioning other than:

no vibrate for SMS during call

possible data errors when switching towers

wakelocks

hardware overlays?

(Does disable HW overlays make the phone laggier? I thought HW overlays were what made things more smooth?)
[HTC Sensation] Brad55555:
Congratulations on the fully working ROM Bruce keep up the good work :)
[HTC Sensation] lt1pnyklr:
My biggest issue is scrolling. It seems like it will never be smooth unless you're running a sense rom.
[HTC Sensation] Daiskei:
Right, I agree on this... Even on Sense 4.0-4.1 it feels a little diff than 3.6.

Also, first attempt to restore apps in Titanium caused a reboot, second time finished fine.
[HTC Sensation] nanuk74:
Work fine!

Thanks!

Sorry for my English, I'm Spanish and I do not speak English well. Thank you very much.
[HTC Sensation] Inerthia:
the 10/10 rom is 10 out of 10!
[HTC Sensation] Lawliet:
Fixed the problem: flash the boot.img from the zip file manually from fastboot.
[HTC Sensation] euqiddis:
10/10 installed, no wifi problems, everything seems to be ok at the mo.
[HTC Sensation] galaxys:
Smooth as silk & fast for me. What launcher, governor & it frequency are u using...

I'm on Nova, OnDemand (or Performance), & 384 - 1620 MHz.
[HTC Sensation] amg83:
dmesg

I kept getting operation not permitted from user mode and found that the kernel has a dmesg restriction enabled. I used the following by adding to the /system/etc/init.d/89bruce script as adding anything to /data/local/userinit.sh doesn't appear to work for me. (I don't know why it's not working but it's not a big issue for me at this time :) )

if [ -r /proc/sys/kernel/dmesg_restrict ]; then
if [ $(cat /proc/sys/kernel/dmesg_restrict) = 1 ]; then
echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/dmesg_restrict

[HTC Sensation] chrolmesq:
Anyone got s2w working with this rom. If you have what have you done? Kernel? Kernel mods?
[HTC Sensation] DevourDarkness:
I'm actually getting less artifacts with chrome on the 9th build. Thanks Bruce, great rom!
[HTC Sensation] NinetoFive:
Is that something evident only in JB/this rom? My ICS AOKP m6 rom seems decent for scrolling (but I want JB smooth).

If this is worse in terms of smooth scrolling, I'm probably not venturing to JB just yet.
[HTC Sensation] rgawenda:
It works lovely. I've just read the thread. Searching should help, also.
[HTC Sensation] Pulinski:
Just do a Nandroid backup and flash, if you don't like it...go back to the backup.

Simple.
[HTC Sensation] darkobas:
change governor to ondemand
[HTC Sensation] StuartTheFish:
It's smooth, just doesn't go as far for each swipe. I asked a few pages ago if there was any way of adjusting it, but people just assumed I was talking about the launcher...
[HTC Sensation] :
Did you try adding this to build prop and rebooting?

ro.max.fling velocity=8000
[HTC Sensation] :
Yes, and it's awesome! Use Root Explorer or File Explorer and go to:

System> etc > init.d > 89bruce

Follow instructions in the file.
[HTC Sensation] undercover:
Afaik it doesn't work on ics and jb

It need more in depth changes than that. I've downloaded an aokp rom that has velocity options, will into it to see what are the differences,but with my limited knowledge I will hardly find anything. Still worth a shot.
[HTC Sensation] chrolmesq:
Thanks. Searched. What kernel are you using?

I'm using tamcore's latest with the sweep zip.I don't know if tamcore's kernel doesnt work well with this ROM.

I must have missed what you're talking about.

Ihave been trying to post his comment sorry if it comes up more than once. I will delete them when i can.
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
There is no overlay to disable, I removed it in source as i have said a few times.

The overlay is disabled in cm9 swell.

The only wake lock I have is the one where BT is on. But that will be fixed soon.
[HTC Sensation] Razpr:
Oh god all this needs is wifi calling (hurry up slow ass Tmo and release a JB rom!) and i can use this rom! i want it so bad

is it safe to assume that when tmobile releases an official rom (on any of their phones, most likely galasy sIII or One S) it can be ported to this rom?
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
Will have to be msm8660 I think, it needs an ril and libs not just the app.
[HTC Sensation] yht9425:
Still having problem locking GPS keep getting searching for GPS on 10-10 rom other than that great rom everything works great.
[HTC Sensation] NoSubstitute:
Maybe that settings should be removed. So as to not confuse users.
[HTC Sensation] Bluewall:
Little feedback, i've changed badass to ondemand and putted the max freq at 1.18Ghz, all is way smoother and faster for me :)

btw, done this with System Tuner.

Excellent work Bruce, always a pleasure to enjoy this ROM, big thanks from swirtzerland!
[HTC Sensation] vincentshjuan:
Morning, was wondering if anyone have problem using the standard alarm clock in this ROM? I am on built 9(10-09-12), clean installation (wipe all). The standard alarm does not ring, actually it does not play the ring tone selected, so I am using a 3rd party alarm clock from Play Store now. Any advice on how to fix this would be very much appreciated. Btw, the swipe to wake is working nicely! Great job Bruce!
[HTC Sensation] sromer:
Could someone tell me how to enable burst shot in the camera?
[HTC Sensation] Corvo007:
Settings > Power shutter on
[HTC Sensation] Wagedroid:
Or users can just search and read as they are advised to when they join the forum. ;)
[HTC Sensation] lowandbehold:
3 full wipes and flashes and still no camera app. And no, it is not in the gallery.
[HTC Sensation] Glennfoot:
When selecting your ringtone toggle the volume rocker down then up, works every time after that
[HTC Sensation] hitechkarthik:
hi Bruce,

Thanks for your effort to bring up this rom. i am using and updating this rom for the past two months..I am facing wifi signal issue with this 10/10 build.

I tried all apps in market includes getril app but no improvement any suggestion to fix this problem...

thanks
[HTC Sensation] andyli1985:
Can't wait til BT wakelock is fixed. The rom will then be perfect for me for everyday usage.

Thank you Bruce.:good:
[HTC Sensation] Mountaineer:
Is your sensation s off?

Are you using 4ext?

Are you flashing gapps from the OP?

Have you tried wiping the gallery data in settings->apps?
[HTC Sensation] :
I just had to reinstall the ROM (my Google Search wasn't working), and I tested it before and after applying the velocity line to my build.prop. I definitely get a longer scroll with it. Or maybe it's a placebo effect from "flinging" harder with my finger because I think it's working better?

Yeah, like that will ever happen. This thread would be 178 pages long instead of 1178 if people actually searched and read.
[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
GoSMS might be the problem as far as vibration during calls. Gosms popups dont work all of a sudden either.

Im pretty sure the Go team hasn't updated for 4.1.2 yet. (Slackers! The source has been out for like 12 hours. Whats taking so long!? Ha!)
[HTC Sensation] lowandbehold:
Yes

Using CWM

Yes

Yes
[HTC Sensation] corkythetard:
I had the same issue on a few of the earlier builds. The only "quick fix" I found was to go into the volume settings, turn the alarm volume all the way down and then all the way up. You should hear the cm alarm sound once you do that. You should be good after that, aside from setting the alarm sound that you want after every reboot. However that problem went away for me after the 10/8 build.

You should seriously consider getting the 10/10 4.1.2. build. It's the BOMB!

Thanks Bruce for all of your hard work!!

---------- Post added at 07:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:37 PM ----------

That's odd. I don't have that problem with GO sms. Actually, my phone vibrates and the person on the other end of the call hears it. May be one of those odd things that not everyone has an issue with. Much like the data drop, it's primarily t-mo us, but I've only had it happen once on a late September build. Weird.
[HTC Sensation] Mountaineer:
Excellent!

Now we know what the problem is, go here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1377759 and grab the 4ext updater apk.

It will allow you to easily replace broken old CWM with 4ext.

Then next time you reflash your phone will work properly.
[HTC Sensation] nba1341:
I have that problem happen with everything on the phone that vibrates during call. Not sure if its because sensations vibrator is near the microphone?
[HTC Sensation] lowandbehold:
Thanks dude! I have a Gnex...not use to all these restrictions!
[HTC Sensation] corkythetard:
I'm certain it's an issue with the phone itself. Happened to me before and after I flashed cm7 on my sensation when I first got it, so I'm gonna go with phone issue.
[HTC Sensation] Finish:
You should be able to flash this just fine with CWM though.
[HTC Sensation] lowandbehold:
Yup, same problem with 4ext..
[HTC Sensation] MarlinFF:
Hmmm, but on the Stock one does it vibrate for you? I ditched GoSMS after switching to CM10 because it is faster, has built in emoji support, split messages better, and with the quick reply it looks a lot nicer
[HTC Sensation] AshtonTS:
What modded cam? :D
[HTC Sensation] syntax_gosong:
I found that the "Panoramic Mode" is chopping...

Front facing camera works pretty well.

And overall... Smooth like an oil....
[HTC Sensation] Mountaineer:
ThizizKenny, Mesaman and Wicket all solved this problem this way, see this post for confirmation: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=32558596&postcount=11366

Once 4ext is your recovery, reboot into it and use it to format everything but your SD card.

Then install the latest ROM zip from the link on the OP.

Then install gapps from the OP.
[HTC Sensation] lowandbehold:
Of course I did a full wipe. I think I may have a bad download. Downloading CM9 RC2 with some ICS Gapps...seeing if it will show up then. This is my first experience with the Sensation...just inherited it from my wife last night and rooted it after I got her a One S...
[HTC Sensation] corkythetard:
Good question. I haven't used the stock messaging app in 2 years. I'll test it out and let ya know what I come up with, though.

Never bothered with the emoji plug in either. How does it split messages better? Tickle me retarded, but I thought a split message was the same across the board?
[HTC Sensation] MarlinFF:
I had to enable splitting with GoSMS or it just didn't send after a certain character length. I usually send pretty long texts to my gf here and there and with GoSMS it'd split it up into like 13-14 texts because the char limit was low. With this app it uses like 4-5 because it maximizes my character limit
[HTC Sensation] marseillesw:
I can't get my weather widgets to update locations.. anyone?

Sent from my HTC Sensation using Xparent Blue Tapatalk 2
[HTC Sensation] corkythetard:
Makes sense. I don't bother with it. If the person I'm texting gets theirs split automatically, oh well. sucks to be them. they get to decipher it! lol I can see your point.
