GPS issue on 11/11 build

+1 for the GPS issue, ie, GPS status stuck on "Searching for GPS"

Any solutions available?
[HTC Sensation] sanderg:
Can you make sure that the 'internal GPS' has been enabled under location settings, GPS source?
[HTC Sensation] reaper_07:
Checked.. It is. I mean it already was.
[HTC Sensation] DarkPrinceByWWW:
Finally, screen flicker on power on are fixed, Bruce for President!!,
[HTC Sensation] antonyslater:
I have the same issue here, although following some testing with my Plantronics headset and my wife's Galaxy 3s the problem goes away.... ROM you think? No, I have the same issue with other ROMS, sense and otherwise on my Sensation.

I think its a problem with the weak wireless signal the Sensation is known to have, when I put my phone in my top shirt pocket without the protective silicone cover, which is the closest I can get it to my headphones, it plays much more smoothly but does distort as the internally buffering of the audio stream tries to deal with the poor signal...

Obviously I'd love to be proved wrong so if someone else can come up with a solution I too would be very grateful.

Nexus 4

Hi guys

I'm starting saving for my Nexus 4, all donations recieved will go towards it.

My goal is to own one before Christmas, I will do everything i can to avoid selling my sensation (don't worry last resort).

So if you want to see me here and in the Nexus 4 forum, please consider helping me out, but in no way feel you have to.

Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
yes I've noticed that if you cover the top of the phone with your hand the music skips more often, i think it is the signal.

Maybe htc gave us dodgy drivers, wouldn't be the first time thats happened.

I just hope they hurry up with #JB4Sensation so we can get some drivers and firmware.
[HTC Sensation] darkbasic4:
Glad to hear you will move to Nexus 4 Bruce :)

I'm eager to sell to my Sensation (never liked it compared to Galaxy Nexus) and I will buy the N4 in Germany at day one :good:
[HTC Sensation] tobitege:
Hey Bruce,

another donation coming up in 1 or 2 days as soon as PayPal has done the transfer.

Sidenote: over 4 days unplugged, about 2 hours screen time, not a single reboot, still 23% battery left.

Again, excellent stuff. Now I need to charge back up for business.
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
Thanks again, your help is much appreciated :)

And wow that is the best battery life I've seen yet.
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
New build will be up on goo.im in 15 minutes
[HTC Sensation] reaper_07:
Cheers for your light-speed fixes!
[HTC Sensation] darkobas:
must be something you have installed. mine never freezes
[HTC Sensation] Thorsten_de:
Hi Bruce!

For your great work at this ROM a small donation 1K0627588B335964R

Greetings from Germany,

Thorsten.
[HTC Sensation] darkbasic4:
Thank you Bruce for your quick updates, I really apreciate it :)
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
Thanks a lot, your help is much appreciated.
[HTC Sensation] stewie01:
Bruce not 4 president, but nexus 4 bruce.

Enjoy!
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
I forgot to put in the changelog that I swaped out Apollo for AOSP Music.

Let me know what you guys think is the better choice.
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
Thanks stewie, much appreciated :)
[HTC Sensation] lichunxin:
The scrolling is rather slow and there's seems to have a lot of friction when trying to swipe.. How can I fix this?
[HTC Sensation] tobitege:
Discussed a 100 times already: use a different launcher and/or change default governor; also search thread for potential build.prop additons.

---------- Post added at 02:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:24 PM ----------

@Bruce: regarding changelog, the "Fixed memory leak in Frameworks base" item: where does it show an effect? Maybe less Alarm Manager messages? More details would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
[HTC Sensation] dario2411:
Thanks Bruce for your time here :)

So someone will continue to work on this rom or not?
[HTC Sensation] remizik:
Thanks bruce for keeping our Sensation up to date :D

a quick question to everybody here : do you know an app or a way to backup all the system's settings ? (ringtone, power widget settings in notification, date, time, display, security etc ...)

thanks :)

edit : I found this one, but if you know any other way, please share :) https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aokp.backup&feature=search_result
[HTC Sensation] darkobas:
titanium backup
[HTC Sensation] remizik:
seriously ?

I found how to backup wifi/sms/bookmarks but that's it (export to XML) :confused:

edit : ok found it, it's to be backups as "apps" not as an export to xml :)
[HTC Sensation] pille_gps:
Hi Bruce

great Rom

but why you removed the ota?
[HTC Sensation] jan.ringas:
I think because it's not (yet?) an official CM10 and therefore will not receive OTAs from the CyanogenMod-Team
[HTC Sensation] Cadetto Entusiasta:
For the upgrade ROM, I can flash a new release 20121111 above the actually ROM?
[HTC Sensation] Repoman123:
The new music player is awesome. Hope I never see Apollo again!

Not sure about the new keyboard though!

None the less, brilliant ROM.
[HTC Sensation] Steffenstr:
Yes you can.
[HTC Sensation] James1o1o:
I still don't know why they haven't made an official build for Sensation. They are quite happy to make builds available for some t-mobile branded devices that under 100 people use according to Cyanogenmod stats, but we have sensation where there are about 20 thousand people using CM9, and they still not made one.
[HTC Sensation] Kellicros:
how do i prevent my custom system apps from being removed in every updates?
[HTC Sensation] idtheftvictim:
Don't wipe system before installing update.
[HTC Sensation] Kellicros:
I did not wipe anything, just flash the latest build on top and all my custom system apps are gone (eg: a gmail2/ 4.1.2 camera.zip posted somewhere,) I have the re-flash them on each update.
[HTC Sensation] muzairnawaz:
Brothers . .Root explorer is a paid application right.. i want to edit the rom for zram and sw2wake.. how to do it

sorry many ppl must have asked this before but wud appreciate if any one cud help
[HTC Sensation] Catnap:
Well of course they are, you're over-writing them with the ROM you're installing....
[HTC Sensation] hockeystar711:
You can use root explorer, but es file explorer is free and will do the same thing. Make sure you go into the settings and enable the "root" option so that you can edit the system files. Then you just long press on that file, edit it, save, return. Long press again, find "change permissions", save, reboot.

From the op:

Kernel features

To enable these you have to edit 'system/etc/init.d/89bruce' with a root explorer. You will also have to reset the permissions of the file to 'rwx r-x r-x' before rebooting.

Sweep2Wake

ZRAM

TUN

USB fast charge

[HTC Sensation] Jur1nator:
from bruces twitter:

wow.. that makes 3 flashes in the last 12 hours :P
[HTC Sensation] badai:
the new music player is faster than Apollo. music ID also works.

possible to make caller id display at bluetooth?

thanks.
[HTC Sensation] Cadetto Entusiasta:
But no any wipe?
[HTC Sensation] krakout:
Not sure, I've installed every single build of this ROM since early September and never lost those apps. I now found out my Gmail is gone, who knows what else...
[HTC Sensation] muzairnawaz:
OPENSENSATION2 in on goo.im
[HTC Sensation] rgawenda:
It's really complicated but I'll try. Locate a post from bruce (I'd suggest OP). Click on his name, and in the popup, click on "Follow me on twitter".
[HTC Sensation] gsmyth:
@bruce2728
[HTC Sensation] Catnap:
Completely sure. If you have a file named lolcakes.apk on your phone in /system and the ROM contains a file called lolcakes.apk, installaing said ROM will overwrite the file on your phone.

Ergo, if you have system apps named the same as apps in the ROM, they will be overwritten when installing. If they don't, then they were called something else. Simple.
[HTC Sensation] winning0308:
IMO, do a full wipe always necessary to prevent any problem happen after flash ROM :laugh:
[HTC Sensation] HaYaHa:
What means opensensation? And what is opensensation?
[HTC Sensation] remizik:
probably this : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1494373

I just googled "opensensation" :rolleyes:
[HTC Sensation] HaYaHa:
I had also found that. Here is a little quote:

And after I had read that, I thought that the difference had been changed until now. Because CM10 also has 1080p, I am not sure if CM10 has Pdroid, CM10 also don't has RomManger but it has Terminal Emulator and CM10 don't has OTA updates but if I flash opensensation2 will I get the updates from CM10 Bruce OTA or will I get updates from other ROM's?
[HTC Sensation] Spr33y:
OpenSensation2 aka OS2 will be CM10 with tweaks on top including things like PDroid.
[HTC Sensation] rojovilla:
If you guy's would've searched this thread, you would find the above referenced information about OS2 :D Good day!
[HTC Sensation] Kameeeleon:
Hey Bruce! I'm flashing it anyway because I'm impatient but are you putting together a new OP for OS2 or its there a changelog somewhere else?

Sent from my HTC Sensation
[HTC Sensation] slacker1979:
Bruce I see a OS2 build on goo . Do you plan on having a dedicated thread for OS ? Only one I can find is the CM9 OS thread Tamcore had.
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
It's just a preview, will post it on xda when it's ready, all things seem to work but I want to add more things.

I've removed ota for now until I get the scripts up on a server.

I will be working on both ROMs.
[HTC Sensation] :
Tried OS2 and it all looks good although the clock alarm kept f/c but maybe I should wipe data/system even though Brude mentioned not required?
[HTC Sensation] mechanimal82:
I'm sure a new thread will be started... Bruce did say this is a beta, so will probably get a thread in the next few days.

On a seperate note... does anyone know of a way to get Orange Signal Boost working on this ROM?... Or Bruce, are you a miracle worker and can put it into os2?
[HTC Sensation] krakout:
Again not sure.

Of course, apps in the ROM you're flashing will replace existing ones, but this does not account for *missing* apps. AFAIK flashing a ROM does not *remove* an existing app (which is the issue here) unless a script says so.
[HTC Sensation] ximmox:
PLEASE don't let this already barely readable thread become even more cluttered by mixing in OS2 questions... :thumbdown: :o
[HTC Sensation] rebar71:
If the app in question is a system app, it will be removed because, AFAIK, the the system is formatted prior to flash.
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
+1

It's just like a proof of concept :) no feedback please.
[HTC Sensation] zrayhanx:
USB Tethering !!

Plz fix usb tethering issue.. the usb tethering is nt working..thanks for your work! Sorry if this is already known.
[HTC Sensation] krakout:
Then maybe something changed? As I said, I've been flashing this ROM for more than tow months now, first time I lost apps... And it would seem I'm not the only one, either.
[HTC Sensation] rebar71:
I dunno. I've come to expect to have to redo all my changes to anything in \system\... every time I flash.

In fact, for me, I don't believe anything there has ever stuck after flashing over the top with any ROM I've ever used.
[HTC Sensation] M@rshy:
Since we can flash cm10 -> os, can we go from os back to cm10 if something doesn't work?

Edit: Sorry, I'm not wanting to clutter anything, just wanting to clear it up for myself and others. :) You are doing a kick ass job Bruce. Seriously, hats off to you. When funds aren't tight, I have calendar reminders to send you some green digital paper thanks!
[HTC Sensation] Inerthia:
Yeah, this. Are there any differences between cm10 and os someone noticed?
[HTC Sensation] adame09:
For some reason the scrolling feels much smoother since 11-11 build and I just flashed 11-12 and it feels smooth as butter
[HTC Sensation] tobitege:
@Bruce: "GPSLocationProvider" started suddenly during screen off and caused wakelock for over an hour, even though I had not used GPS in that time at all.

Happened during first period after Nov 12 install, had to reboot to get it killed somehow.
[HTC Sensation] corumuk:
Flashed OS2 by mistake so thought i'd check it out. Like the clock. Unfortunately Tango FC's as soon as a call connects. Had this with CM9 too. Works fine on the 'brucey' rom so it's back to that for the time being.
[HTC Sensation] j_r0dd:
Bumping this. Trying to narrow down that intermittent garbled audio when making a call.

http://db.tt/uQ6NsDsI
[HTC Sensation] AshtonTS:
Bruce, can you put apollo back? the GB music is worse... Promptly uninstalled and replaced with apollo. Otherwise, loving the ROM
[HTC Sensation] Rico84:
Where did you find OS2?
[HTC Sensation] Spidersoft:
http://goo.im/devs/bruce2728 -> scroll to bottom
[HTC Sensation] darkbasic4:
Please stop talking about OS2. It's on goo.im and bruce already asked to not pollute this thread with opensensation related questions. No, there is still no OS2 thread. I'ts just a preview.
[HTC Sensation] idtheftvictim:
+1 or incorporate some lock screen controls somehow. Can't control music from lock screen using aosp music player

EDIT: not complaining...just putting it out there. Sorry...
[HTC Sensation] BuTuCuTz:
Apollo

+1 for Apollo.
[HTC Sensation] webharsh:
I thought Bruce fixed this issue few builds back. Last time it was observed when calling after plugging/unplugging headphone.
[HTC Sensation] redshark313:
Thanks - top tip!

Although, now I've found that I gallery closes when I try adding a picture (from a picasa album) to a contact, rats. I will just copy over pictures required.
[HTC Sensation] Elponius:
Hey Guys,

Do Anyone Knows why the game camelot battle for the noth doesnt work with this Rom ?

It seems that i have with every JellyBeanRom this Bug with the MovingIssue.

Now Im running the Old 4.04 CM9 Rom and now it works perfect. :S

so there is a lot to fix, isn´t it?
[HTC Sensation] darkobas:
+1 for appolo there... the lockscreen view was ok.
[HTC Sensation] StuartTheFish:
For those of you that somehow like Apollo, why don't you just pull it from an earlier rom? Or, better still, get a decent player instead.
[HTC Sensation] j_r0dd:
Maybe for headphones. I still get it every few phone calls through the ear speaker.
[HTC Sensation] slacker1979:
I agree. I wish neither of them were included personally. First thing I do is delete them and restore poweramp and play music.
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
Yes you can flash back and forth, I've done it about 10 times in the last 2 days.

Thanks, will go towards my n4 :)
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
Thank you I'll see what I can do tonight.
[HTC Sensation] Sequester:
Bluetooth hiccups are back for me in the latest build. There is no stable connection to the headset. I tried to listen to an audio book but it is barely hearable as the connection is constantly interrupted for a couple of seconds.

If I can provide any additional info pls let me know.

[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
Lol if I could put either of them in I would, I'll start a poll later.
[HTC Sensation] G1-evolve:
I have had the same problem, but listening to music.
[HTC Sensation] rebar71:
If you are out and about, make sure your wifi is turned off. As long as your stationary, wifi state doesn't matter.

I used to have this problem on every ROM. Turned out to be wifi picking up networks as I drove around. Every time it would detect a network, the music would cut out for a couple seconds. Making sure to turn off wifi while in transit cured the problem. From what I've read, it's an Android problem - ROM doesn't matter.

I have not had this problem on any of Bruce's builds, but haven't tried yet on latest 11/12 build.
[HTC Sensation] banesi:
It happened on CM9 builds also, very nasty bug, I was unable to find anything meaningful in logs nor the way to trigger it intentionally, it happens randomly and only solution to get GPS working again is to reboot.

Did this happened to you on 11/6 build? I'm running it since release and for now I'm still waiting for this bug to occur, I'll stay on it for some time waiting for bug to happen...
[HTC Sensation] G1-evolve:
I do not use Wi-Fi..
[HTC Sensation] rebar71:
well, i haven't listened to music over BT yet on the 11/12 build. i will on my way home from work. i'll report back how it works for me.
[HTC Sensation] StuartTheFish:
I've never experienced that even though I never disable wifi. Do you have yours set to notify you of available networks? I don't, so maybe that's it?
[HTC Sensation] rebar71:
I probably did. Now i'm just in the habit of turning off wifi when i get in the car. Better for battery too as it's not acting like a slut trying to connect to every wifi network it sees.
[HTC Sensation] roccatkone:
Oh my gosh, bruce finally fixed screen flickering while locking. I love you! <3 :D
[HTC Sensation] Sequester:
Turning off Wi-Fi does not solve the problem. I am not sure if this a problem with certain ROM versions or the phone does not work properly with certain Bluetooth devices. I mostly use different rectal cars for the weekends. Sometimes there is no problem and sometimes it simply does not make any sense to connect as it is not usable.

I thought it might be related to bad performance when phone is idle apart from audio streaming and changed minimum frequency to 384 MHz but this didn't help as well.

Gesendet von meinem HTC Sensation mit Tapatalk 2
[HTC Sensation] rebar71:
OUCH!

I have my screen-off freq at 486MHz. I also use PowerAmp which gives you the ability to set read-ahead buffer size and audio-thread priority. If you using Apollo, that may be the problem right there. I had similar issues with Apollo - and it's also pretty limited as a player.

EDIT: And if you're talking about streaming audio through an internet based service (i.e. Pandora) while driving around, then I can't help you there as I don't do that. I've got 20 gigs of music on my SD card for driving.
[HTC Sensation] darkobas:
why do you asume what we can and what we cant... we were just pointing out that the aosp player doesnt have the lockscreen controls. just a discussion.

so i dont know WHY do you even care of apollo is in or not as you can allways remove it and install aosp.

and please remember me when/if i go looking for other players to ask U which ones do you approve and are decent for you.
[HTC Sensation] GavTheStoner:
CRT animation glitch still happens sometimes when device is locked. You see the clock flash up just before screen off.

Seems to be gone if unlocked though. Nice one!
[HTC Sensation] darkriftx:
The Sensation XE was clocked higher out of the box at 1.56 GHz. The hardware is the same, but I think the XE had HTC Beats Audio out of the box as well. The processor is exactly the same and this is why most over clocked Sensation 4g's will run great at that frequency. 1.56 GHz is the normal operating frequency of the processor (I think HTC referred to it as the "Scorpion" chip set). They released the plain Sensation 4G under clocked at 1.18 GHz. Both phones came from HTC. The other phone with similar hardware, plus a 3d camera, was the HTC Evo 3D.
[HTC Sensation] Sequester:
I just reflashed 6/11 version again and Bluetooth audio hiccups are gone - so for me it is definitely the latest ROM version.

I had this problem also with older versions, for the time being I stick to this version.

Here you go Bruce . I too am getting a Nexus4 and it'll be good to see you over there. BTW, don't mind the account name I have like 50 aliases and that is one of my eBay ones. It seems people trust buying from woman more lmfao.
[HTC Sensation] StuartTheFish:
I wasn't assuming anything, I was asking why you don't just pull it from an older rom instead of just asking Bruce to put it back for you. I don't care if it's there or not, I was trying to suggest that you could get it again yourself if you wanted it. :rolleyes:

It seems it's you making assumptions, thinking I thought you were an idiot when all I did was suggest how you could get it back. It's actually your response that gave me that opinion. ;)
[HTC Sensation] xenios:
Vanilla Sensation, 4G and XE use the same Qualcomm S3 dualcore with 768 MB RAM. XE is clocked higher at 1.56 while the other two came at 1.18. It's the same processor and as all processors some may be bin selected (eg. Good chips get to run at stable at higher speeds and are sold as such while not so good performing chips are sold underclocked and cheaper). That's the way the chip market goes for everyone Intel, AMD, RAM etc. Sometimes when the yields are very good the chips are all the same just sold at different speeds and prices to fill the market niches (Intel is a classic example).

The EVO 3D has the same processor but 1GB of RAM so it was a better perfoming phone all around (so I read, most of them where CDMA but it was released in Europe as well as GSM later on).

Are you using some juice defender or other similar software? I've now seen many people saying CM10 is excellent for battery but when I am using it I see the battery percentage just falling as I use the phone, I mean I can notice that it goes down like 1% in less then a minute, I had a 10hrs battery with 1h of screen time! Only browser and SMS :(

I am using 3.33.X and the radio that is coming with CM10, I always wipe all the partitions and I have a sensation XE with bruce kernel. :(

The 11/12/12 update is working great and feels faster! I only had to reflash the 4.2 transition pack.
