Hey bruce, thanks for all the hard work :D

Question, How do you actually know when to do a full wipe and when to just flash over the rom? :l
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
Its up now
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
Depends if you have any problems
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
Yes the sleep bug might be in the first test and I set the oc a bit high, its down to 172 with the new one
[HTC Sensation] rgawenda:
I'll invest in F5 key makers
[HTC Sensation] scm_crash:
Got fe61d473f3a259f40e7b4ee24321200e on 9/5. Confirm?
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
fe61d473f3a259f40e7b4ee24321200e

Yep
[HTC Sensation] Deathsongx3:
Nevermind, Found out that it wasn't on goo.im, was on your server. Sorry!
[HTC Sensation] suiller:
excuse me Bruce... I saw on your repository that there is a zip called "gapps-jb...bruce..."

should I stay with official gapp google release or your version has some "news"? thank you
[HTC Sensation] BDorestant:
Hey Bruce quick question, do you plan on working on FFC soon? Thanks in advance
[HTC Sensation] DonPhelippe:
Haven't head the chance to check through the Sept 5th version, but so far I would like to report something kinda strange: when the inevitable SystemUI crash happens, whenever this was, even when the status bar re-appears, the wallpaper changes to the same bland generic thing, probably a default setting or something. Also, when I try to change the wallpaper after this, SystemUI crashes again. Dare I assume that this (wallpaper reverting to default and SystemUI crashing afterwards) is the, for lack of better words, intended behaviour? At least what is perceived as "safe" reaction on the ROM's - OS' front?

Cheers a bunch, will report on how things go with 5/9 release.
[HTC Sensation] nanuk74:
Hi Bruce, build 5/9 es online?

Thanks you very much from your work.

Flash with wipe cache+dalvik, or need full wipe?

Sorry for my English, I'm Spanish and I do not speak English well. Thank you very much.
[HTC Sensation] cclaxx:
0509 I had a reboot when i played a video..and if I try to move forward or rewind the video always crashes
[HTC Sensation] Moh Kohn:
I just noticed your complaint about lack of comments to your test build ,4/9, so I download and test and come back here to find a new build!!!

I'm off to find a worse sense ROM that only gets updated every month!!!

For any Americans reading this, this post is laced with sarcasm.

CMX
[HTC Sensation] phammichael:
Yes he is working in it. You don't need to ask. The more questions he answers in this thread, the less time he has available to work on the rom.
[HTC Sensation] Grandelama:
Thanks for the update!

Do we still have to delete debug.sf.hw=1 in the latest 05/09?

It is not very smooth out of the box, in my experience the latest really "buttery" release was the 23/24th, before Vsync was enabled, could vsync be the culprit?
[HTC Sensation] N10AP:
Feedback from 5/9...

Full wipe inc dalvik before installation...

Overall stable.

Camera still not being released by os so a reboot is needed to use it again

Trebuchet / apex nowhere near as smooth as previous builds... almost as if project butter is disabled... on supplied kernel... tried different speeds and governers.

YouTube worked for about fifteen seconds... better frame rate in landscape... poor frame rate and artefacts in portrait. Eventually soft reboots. Hw overlay settings untouched since installing

Keep up the good work mate!
[HTC Sensation] phammichael:
Where's your logcat? Your post is worthless without a logcat. You're just cluttering the thread with your worthless post.
[HTC Sensation] scm_crash:
I was just transferring some large files via USB on the 9/5 and the USB disconnected during the transfer. Then the phone immediately froze up. Did a Vol U/D+Power to reboot.
[HTC Sensation] N10AP:
Easy tiger. There is a right way to talk to people you know.
[HTC Sensation] Deathsongx3:
I can confirm that the video crashes after fast forwarding/rewinding, but video plays fine if you dont touch the bar.

___________

0509, Camera on 6(W)MP

After taking a picture, the camera freezes for about 5 seconds then it says gallery is not responding.

Can anyone else confirm this?
[HTC Sensation] dkephart:
I don't think entirely worthless. Without means to cat the log right now, I can +1 the posts about video reboots (easily reproducible) and assert the overlays are either not ready for primetime yet or require a /system format to take effect.
[HTC Sensation] N10AP:
Try clearing camera data mate. 6mp is fine on my device. I always full wipe before I install any build
[HTC Sensation] morfiy_k:
Hello! please tell me, after installing cm-10-20120904-bruce2728-pyramid-test multimedia sound comes only through headphones. On the main speaker output only the sound of incoming calls and notifications. This is a special feature or a bug?

Thanks in advance!

Translated by google.
[HTC Sensation] N10AP:
Try the newer build :)
[HTC Sensation] Deathsongx3:
I did a full wipe, whats weird is the camera app isnt in my apps tab in settings.
[HTC Sensation] N10AP:
Weird... which gapps have you got? The July ones or Bruce's august ones? I'm using Bruce's august ones... might be worth a try
[HTC Sensation] Jiggs82:
Camera is included in the gallery app now in jb
[HTC Sensation] Deathsongx3:
Sweet, thanks!
[HTC Sensation] takuhii:
Wipe Gallery data ;)
[HTC Sensation] rgawenda:
Only wiped dalvik/cache

Stable.

I've taken two rounds of pics with every camera program (native, 360, fx, ggoogles...) without any problem.

Artifacts only when the "loading/buffering" overlay circle. No reboots.
[HTC Sensation] resadent:
For me, finest and smoothest ROM was 24 august build and that's the one I use atm. Maybe enabling vsync wasn't that good?
[HTC Sensation] morfiy_k:
Thanks for the help! But flashing to cm-10-20120905-bruce2728-pyramid does not help all remained in their places. Maybe try to update to newer gapps?
[HTC Sensation] Deathsongx3:
In my opinion, vsync makes it feel more stable but a little laggy.
[HTC Sensation] morfiy_k:
Hmmm ... very strange ... installed PowerAmp plays sound on the main speaker. It remains to understand why the MX Video player plays only through the headphones. May still have a point of such settings?

P.S. Tell me how to make the Russian letters in dialer (quick search)?

translated by google
[HTC Sensation] N10AP:
OK... update with YouTube, from a clean install...

Hw overlays enabled... in portrait, videos do play to the end, with corruption artefacts and appearing to be dropping the odd frame... in landscape, all frames are displayed with no corruption, but it does cause a soft reboot approx 10 seconds after turning the phone in its side to enable landscape mode.

Disable hw overlays does however make it work without faults. Will do a log cat when I got home if required
[HTC Sensation] kualmente:
Testing 09/05. Scrolling was smoother on 09/04. No other issues at the moment.

What I noticed is that in build.prop is still present "debug.sf.hw=1"- Should we delete it? Thanks :)
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
No cos the overlay is enabled, you can delete debug.egl.hw though, might help scrolling.

Also you can try changing composition type from dyn to gpu, not tried it myself as am busy at the mo.
[HTC Sensation] N10AP:
Tried changing dyn to gpu... no change. Never mind thanks for the suggestion
[HTC Sensation] Lionhardt:
9/5 is solid, WiFi is great. Noticeably laggier though.
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
Delete from build.prop

enabler=1

debug.egl.hw=1

Let me know if that helps lag please
[HTC Sensation] N10AP:
Enabler=1? Where is that line Bruce? Unless I'm blind I can't see it
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
Bloody spell correction:)

debug.enabletr=true
[HTC Sensation] Jiggs82:
Feels smoother to me so far
[HTC Sensation] BobbyHill:
I had that problem too. My fix was to install it, back it up with Titanium Backup, uninstall it, and restore the TB backup. It's been working ever since.
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
i mean simple discussion can be made faster if you guys use that ..and for file sharing there is always DB :D

right now people might be busy ..

but once enough ppl join it ...you can just talk/chat/discuss :)
[HTC Sensation] D00mSlayer:
Thanks. Where can I find a list of aokp irc chat rooms?
[HTC Sensation] CactusProtist:
Not in a thread for a different ROM, that's for sure.
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
I'll have my repo up tonight with a local manifest, sorry for the delay but my hard drive decided to crash in the middle of doing a build.

I've fixed the torch but don't think that's worth updating the rom just for that.
[HTC Sensation] inspire4gfreak:
Guys, how good is your battery life on this rom?

Mine dropped from full charge to 35% in 16 hours, but with barely touching my phone. I'm on stock kernel and thought about trying out tamcore.
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
I think there is a wake lock somewhere, just trying to get the main features working.

I think gnow is caused by the audio and the broken camera is caused by the framework.

Please let me know if tamcore kernel gives you better results so I can narrow it down, thanks.
[HTC Sensation] wmoore:
Oops, Wrong thread.
[HTC Sensation] ivicask:
I'm on tamcore now phone online for 16hours with 1:15 hours Screen on i have 68% battery left, wifi is on, and lots of programs sync and so.

Thats badass 1.2ghz.
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
Source code up at bottom of first post, with a local manifest

PS I will edit the local manifest to remove the lines from cm default.xml later edit:done

there is a command in the readme in local manifest repo, just enter this in terminal to put my local_manifest.xml in your .repo folder.

The audio source is a bit of a mess but it compiles, I'll sort it out later.
[HTC Sensation] DragunKorr:
Thanks bruce
[HTC Sensation] Emmanuel U:
make: *** No rule to make target `audio_policy.msm8660'. Stop.

lol I'm assuming this was the messed up part?
[HTC Sensation] DragunKorr:
run this command?
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
nope should compile ok, give me a few more lines of that error pls
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
no this one

wget -O ~/android/system/.repo/local_manifest.xml https://raw.github.com/bruce2728/local_manifest/master/local_manifest.xml
[HTC Sensation] Emmanuel U:
its almost like audio_policy.msm8660 isn't there. It didn't start compiling, no errors, just said no rule to make target
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
I need the lines above that error so i can see which file is asking for audio_policy.msm8660 as i am using the default one at the moment.

did you delete the existing audio folder from your work tree first, and have you got the latest manifest? i updated it a few mins ago
[HTC Sensation] DragunKorr:
command no worky for me!
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
try again i messed the post up

Guys what is the correct md5 for the 05/09 build?
[HTC Sensation] slacker1979:
Does anyone have a nice boot image I can flash for this ROM. Someone posted some in the beginning of this thread but didn't include a download link. I'm stuck with the 'beats by grogg' one I flashed in aroma installer before using this ROM . BTW,before anyone mentions the utility on xda to make my own I'll tell you my computer is still in the shop so I can only flash through 4ext. Thanks
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
I had that problem once, hope this helps.

[HTC Sensation] N10AP:
Remarked out both lines, no difference. I get the feeling its nothing to do with build.prop ( the lagginess) but kernel related?
[HTC Sensation] Solidus_n313:
Worse than before, with reboot.

Been slower since sept builds
[HTC Sensation] rgawenda:
I modified this base giving more Cid:

Download fastboot flashable img

Its the same kernel from 24th, try tamcore to see if the lag is gone.

i have edition of 31st August flashed on my Sensation for applying 03 sep version what i have to do.. and by applying will i loose the data and settings.? which files i have to flash
[HTC Sensation] laxin:
With latest build and dragonkernel buttery smooth as always. Bruce your kernel seems to have a problem with turning online the second core, but when the phone is getting charged the second core gets turned on.
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
Cm keep changing things to run on Samsung devices which breaks things for us, we need a good kernel dev to make a jb kernel that supports all the changes made.
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
No it only turns on when its needed in 05/09
[HTC Sensation] Deegan87:
On 5/9, I can't swipe from the camera into the gallery, but I can swipe from the gallery into the camera. Not a big gripe, but it's a new bug on this build.

Sent from my HTC Sensation
[HTC Sensation] Sequester:
Some quick feedback. As the 3 Sep. build felt a little bit laggy for me i tried out dragunkernel which made things even worse. There was no complete freeze but the phone was unsresponsive for up to some 10 seconds im a couple of times within the first 10 minutes. I switched it off and wait for the latest build from Bruce now.
[HTC Sensation] Deegan87:
Try the 5/9 build.

Sent from my HTC Sensation
[HTC Sensation] N10AP:
Dragunkernel does get the buttery smoothness back I can confirm with the 5/9 build.
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
Try the new kernel on I agree server
[HTC Sensation] N10AP:
Testing... Will update shortly

UPDATE: The kernel you have just provided seems very stable - not a single crash, however the swiping through screens / app drawer is still somewhat off...

Don`t get me wrong, it isn`t unusable by any means, but it is almost as if the ROM is running at 30fps rather than 60 that we butter lovers have got used to.

I don`t think a logcat would help would it? I have had logcat running and cannot see anything that could be of interest.
[HTC Sensation] slacker1979:
Couldnt get any of them to work through 4ext. They would flash but on reboot it would only boot to boatloader. Not a problem as I just flashed the ROM on top and back to normal. Thing is that doesn't make any sense considering this ROM doesn't boot image that I'm using and that's the one it reverts to. Any suggestions.
[HTC Sensation] ROCKSTAR XS:
I'm still running the 9/3 build with 8/24 kernel because so far it's fairly stable just a few bugs here and there. I'll update it all sometime tonight and see what I come up with
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
I forgot to remove debug.enabletr from build.prop it will help smoothness

Edit- re upped with the change
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
I've never got a 7 before on this ROM
[HTC Sensation] Mesaman2012:
Very nice buddy!!!
[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
If you want to change the splash screen (boot image) you can do it from within the phone without going to recovery. Do this...

First make sure the image you want is properly converted to an *.img file. You can't just use any old JPEG. There are conversion programs to switch a JPG or GIF into a IMG file. Do a search in the Themes section for those.

Now put you image file into a directory on the SD card called Splashscreens (You can name this directory anything you like, but adjust the next step accordingly if you call it something else)

Rename your image file to custom.img (again, you can call it anything you want, but adjust the next steps accordingly)

Now go to Terminal Emulator and type the following

su (Then give terminal root access if prompted)

dd if=/mmt/sdcard/splashscreens/custom.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p14

Make sure this is typed exactly!!! Especially the last part, or you will overwrite something more important with a splash screen file!!!

You can set this script up in an app like GScript to save it for future reference so you can change it in the future easily.

The whole thing takes about 3 seconds once you type everything in.

Note to anyone without a Sensation who found this post...DO NOT USE THIS SCRIPT!!!! You will louse up your phone. This is for the HTC Sensation ONLY. Other devices will save the splash screen in different memory blocks.
[HTC Sensation] ac_utd:
I'm sorry. It was only a question. Each to his own, I guess.

Thanks. Will try and let you have some feedback.
[HTC Sensation] SK1LLS:
hey bruce is it safe to flash the 8.30 gapps on top of the 7.26 because i heard people are getting the double camera.
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
Its not needed if you updated gnow on market, and I fixed the 2 can thing
[HTC Sensation] MikeDVH:
I totally agree with you dude - deffo each to their own, but I work in sound and I can honestly tell you that beats audio is nothing but a money spinner for Dre and the manufacturers of the kit. There is nothing that beats does that the CyanogenMod DSP can't do, apart from line Dre's pockets with more gold.

Just wanted to give you the full picture. :thumbup:
[HTC Sensation] Jiggs82:
Well going back to 9/03 build because the 9/05 build is definitely having way too many reboots and issues no matter what kernel I use or wiping cache/dalvik:( so hopefully a fix can be resolved and if I had to guess its probably some bad commits from cm team especially the Samsung ones as stated before
[HTC Sensation] SK1LLS:
how do you update gnow on the market?
[HTC Sensation] N10AP:
Performance still the same as the other test kernel sadly.

It is no problem to use dragunkernel, but I understand you want to crack this nut! I`m welcome to any more suggestions.

I keep looking at build.prop over and over to see if there is something I have missed!
[HTC Sensation] raskall:
+1

9/03 crashed only once in two days. Since i applied 05 it has died on me at least 20 times.
[HTC Sensation] N10AP:
Is there any chance of you providing a logcat of your issues?

Instead of reverting to older builds, any help/logcats you can give will just keep propelling the ROM forward.

This is how we progress boys!
[HTC Sensation] raskall:
Well. are the logcats available in retrospect? My phone is only near a comper a few minutes a day. With a 4 hour commute and Citrix thin client as a workstation it's hard to reproduce in a controlled environment. And when it dies it does so resting in my pocket. Never while I use it. So extracting a logcat is quite hard if it isn't logged to a file I can retrieve when at home from my laptop.

Edit: Using 384/1560 and BADASS with the bundled kernel, btw.
[HTC Sensation] N10AP:
OK mate, I`m not having a go or anything, just thought it might help.

Getting a logcat of an intermittent issue is a pain in the arse!

With your reboot issue... Are you checking your min CPU speed is 384? If it is 192, it often does reboot. Set min CPU speed on 384 and tick set on boot.

You could try dragunkernel too.

Good luck!

EDIT: Just seen your edit re speeds/gov
[HTC Sensation] websiege:
9/05 Unstable

9/05 build seems very unstable. Crashes/reboot every few minutes. Power widget is blank. hangs on some apps. Wiped everything and re-flash but still the same. Seems a but less responsive as well. Also Swift Key 3 does not work anylonger, crashes on setup which is strange since it worked fine on all previous builds.

Any suggestions pls?
[HTC Sensation] N10AP:
It looks like CM`s updates have caused problems on the kernel side of things. At the risk of sounding like a broken record, have you tried another kernel?
[HTC Sensation] n3xas:
Currently trying out 0905 build + 0905 kernel. Flashed without full wipe, only cache + dalvik. So far so good, no reboots or crashes, no notification bar freezes, only scrolling and UI (nova) could be smoother. Tried deleting that line you mentioned from build prop but no luck. Oh, and torch widget in the notif. bar doesn't always work. Looking forward to seeing how's the battery life,

had some drain with previous builds.
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
Try the new kernel it has a couple small changes
[HTC Sensation] MikeDVH:
I don't want to speak too soon, but I've been on today's release all afternoon with the recent kernel update, and I've not had one issue.

:o
[HTC Sensation] Gr3ml!n:
Bruce2728 im running update with new kernel. I got no lag no stutter just pure awesomeness OK its only been 15 mins but i liky like no problems here.. CPU 192 max 1.72 badass
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
Me too
[HTC Sensation] Tabtoub:
I reverted to the best build ever, first I flashed 21/08 an then 23/08 incremental update and finally 24/08 Kernel update! The phone flies now with no issues/reboots..
[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
9/5 isn't as smooth as 8/31 (which is where the high bar has been set by my judgement)

Raw, flashing only the ROM with the original kernel it was really laggy. With the replacement kernel it was a lot less laggy. With DargonKernel 0.8 (the later builds of that kernal all get way too hot for me) the 9/5 build is really smooth, but not quite as good as the 8/31 build.

Oddly...left-right scrolling like from the launcher is silky smooth. Up-down scrolling like on a web page or the xda app is choppy.

It's close to being really smooth, but it's not quite there. It's WAY better than the 9/3 build though in terms of smoothness though so it's moving in the right direction.

I've only been on 9/5 for like an hour so I haven't had time to see if there are other bugs, but so far nothing.

One thing though....I couldn't make the recommended build prop adjustments because the lines Bruce said to delete were not there. And I mean the lines as he corrected them after spell check made him say the wrong line.

So it's better than 9/3, but not quite back to where it was before CM started breaking stuff in favor of making the Samsung builds better.

Bruce, if there's any other reviews you need let us know!
[HTC Sensation] websiege:
Yes I did (dragun). Can't tell is its any different. Swiftkey still wont run at all but haven't tested much else.
[HTC Sensation] N10AP:
For smoothness, Dragunkernel has the edge... But only just.

Bruce`s kernel has, upon further examination has indeed made a noticeable difference compared to the one that came with todays build.

@Bruce... Could it be something as simple as Undervolt settings that gives the difference?

Apart from Youtube playing silly buggers (no biggie HW overlays off again) and camera gremlins, all is well.

---------- Post added at 09:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:00 PM ----------

I tried swiftkey. You are right that it won`t go through the setup wizard without a crash, but you can exit the wizard, and manually select the swiftkey keyboard from android settings. It seems to work...
[HTC Sensation] opethfan3:
Swiftkey is always disabled on boot for me.
[HTC Sensation] B1aze:
Using Swiftkey here as well with no issues. After finally getting through setup it's fine.
[HTC Sensation] James1o1o:
Does this mean we could be getting an official build soon?

[HTC Sensation] rojovilla:
Google Play --> Update Google
[HTC Sensation] darkriftx:
Did you try changing the volume when testing the YouTube app? I can get it to crash consistently every time, even after a successful video playback. It will happen also when it is no longer the app I'm actively using. I'll send a logcat when I can.

Bruce, this is an amazing ROM. Keep up the good work!
[HTC Sensation] dadanepal:
Just for people using SWYPE the behavior is exactly the same. The installer crashes multiple times you but at the end you can still use it.
[HTC Sensation] Manko10:
How did you get that? I only get 5400 at most (with the new kernel more like 5100). With the option "Force GPU rendering" set I got up to 5721, but not above.

EDIT:

Okay, 5757 with "Force GPU rendering" off after waiting some more time for the system to settle after reboot. But that's about the maximum I can get.

EDIT2:

This benchmark must be broken somehow. Every time I run it, I get more. Now I'm at 6321.
