This occured to me in the past weeks once or twice as well. I usually started from scratch then (fresh/clean install) and restored my apps with TB, doing 4ext backups all the way to trace my steps.

One possible cause could be apps being moved to SD (app2sd), which either should not be moved to the sd card in the first place or are active/running when you enabled the USB connection. TB once restored my System Tuner Pro to the SD card, which seemed to give me headache at the time (need to flip a switch in TB for the default restore location).

Sorry, no definitive answer, but maybe it helps a bit, still.

EDIT: sry forgot to mention.. m on the same kernel as u post with each rom.. i dont chnge it..
[HTC Sensation] Brad55555:
Bruce this rom has gone so far!Everything is excellent and lag free.All of the main issues are fixed and I would like to ask you when will you fully fix the camera like 1080p and panorama glitches(have not updated to the release on the 19th and I do not know if the graphical glitches refer to panorama).Good job.
[HTC Sensation] MoNkEyPhOnE:
To fix it had to attend the new driver for adreno from qcom :)

@ the facebook display: If you set the user agent to iphone it will be the same layout as before so its probably a new layout for android(?)

and an issue im having: when using skype, all the audio comes out from the call speaker rather than the media speaker at the back of the phone, any idea how to redirect the audio to the main speaker because the audio is too low. This happens using video call as well as voice call.

I'm guessing he is using the sixaxis controller app, as I'm pretty sure that's the only app that does it.
[HTC Sensation] giantflash:
Ok, I think the wakelock is beacuse of the google service framework and if you want to use an app from google you need it and so you can't do much.

I got rid of the wakelocks with the (NOGAPPS BlankStore and without installing gapps, but I think I'll live with the wakelocks to use the original playstore because it is much more comfortable.
[HTC Sensation] MrSoulSOng:
I totally recommend Sixaxis Controller app. The touch emulation is wonderful! You take a screeny of the game while playing, then load that screeny into the app, and apply the PS3 buttons to whatever corresponding touch buttons you want. You can also save profiles of your touch emu setups for each game etc.

I've been using it to play the FPS 'Dead Trigger'. Which is awesome with a controller. Because with touch you'd need three thumbs! Lol. (L stick, R stick, trigger button)

[HTC Sensation] Mercvtio:
Hello,

I've been using this rom for quite some time now, and I've unexpectedly come across an issue. The annoying thing is I seem to be the only one having it, and I can't figure out what's wrong...

I usually tether from my Sensation to my TF101 tablet, and it used to work very well. But then it brutally stopped working, after one of the rom updates (I think it was the 10/09 one).

I mean, enabling the wifi thethering works ; my tablet finds it and connects to it just fine. But it seems that even if I am linked to my phone, there's no internet connection : the browsers just keep on loading pages, and never succeed in it.

I tried wiping data, cache and wipe, I made a clean install of each subsequent upgrade ever since it started acting weird, I flashed Tamcore's kernel... and nothing.

Ho, and to be sure the issue wasn't on my tablet's end, I tried tethering to my laptop : it connects, and says there's no internet connection.

Any idea what I can do to fix it ?

Hi all, I was on stock rom ,so I unlocked the phone and did the s-on thing by joubununt bear, and then flashed CM10

the rom is perfect, fast, and gives 100mb of ram extra ,I liked it a lot.

But unfortunately the WiFi isn't finding any networks please help me with this problem.

PROBLEM SOLVED BY CHANGING REGION CODE THANKS FOR NOT HELPING ME
[HTC Sensation] cyrarchy:
Well I was in the same boat a few pages ago. I think I have achieved some normalcy by fully draining the battery and charging it over night even if it was showing full charge. Sometimes you get stuck with bad charge cycles and it can be quite frustrating. Anyway hope it works out for you, I am getting about 9-10 hours (its not brilliant but manageable) with full charge now with no random restarts or hangs.
[HTC Sensation] AshtonTS:
Never mind, reboot fixed this :D

I'm really glad because this is the only rom I want to use :)
[HTC Sensation] KennyHage:
I think that it could be something with the internal routing table in the phone. I have the exact same issue when I switch between Wi-Fi Hotspot and USB tethering. A reboot of the phone resolves the problem for me.
[HTC Sensation] KennyHage:
Looks like you don't have any tethering interface??

I got this in logcat when I ran my Wi-Fi tethering:

I've noticed this issue myself as well. Always thought it was due to crappy signal in my area. I don't make many calls though so it's never bothered me.
[HTC Sensation] HF299:
Same issue I have had with a bad battery - every test I´ve done said he battery was ok. But since I´ve changed it everything runs proper and no more unexpected shutdowns.
[HTC Sensation] aamir123:
If you do try to get a new battery try to get an Anker since it's bigger than stock and will give you alot better on time. The quality I hear is the same as stock and it fits without any special back cover needed.
[HTC Sensation] InfamousBlade:
Seconding the Anker recommendation. It's really cheap on Amazon. Not as large a capacity as I'd like for a phone this powerful, but you can't beat it for the price. The only larger battery I've seen for the sensation is overpriced out the bum.
[HTC Sensation] Konstigt:
Some battery screenshots from today.. didn't use the phone much but still the batteri was drained pretty quickly (to 14% after almost 9 hrs). On 10-19 ROM and syncing Google Account, Exchange every hour, Facebook push, Google Now deactivated. 20 minutes Spotify with BT (other than that BT deactivated). Most screen-on time was changing settings.

I'm pretty sure I would have been on +50% if I was running stock. So surely there must be something in the ROM that drains the battery.
[HTC Sensation] lholhos:
Amazon Seller Doesnt Ship to South Africa:(, I ordered it already via another site...14 to 20 days delivery....will see when the battery get here
[HTC Sensation] slacker1979:
That looks like some evil Tron ****. You definently had something running in the background hardcore.

Signal issues since updating to 19/10 version

I've been using the 28/09 build until now and all was fine until late last week when Orange/TMob in the UK changed to become EE. At this point I completely lost all signal. After a lot of fiddling around it came back so I presumed it was maybe a temp network issue.

Yesterday I upgraded to the 19/10 buildand since then I have gone back to having zero signal. Nothing at all. I've tried switching off and back on, removing battery and sim, switching plane mode off and on, nothing has worked. I have also tried to manually select the network but just get an error saying something like "error retrieving network list". Selecting 2g only also doesn't help and it also seems that this setting is not saved, which is a separate issue.

Also the radio is constantly requesting SU permissions, every few seconds.

Anyway, having tried to find anything relating to this on the thread the only thing I have found is someone saying they had similar issues and were unable to use either the 17/10, 18/10 or 19/10 builds so I'm going to go to the 15/10 build and see if that one works.

Has anyone else had similar issues or have any advice on how to fix it? Thanks.

Can someone answer me why my microphone does not work on hungout or on videocall on gtalk? This happens one every ROM i have.
[HTC Sensation] tobitege:
The major drop of approx. 30% seems to be when you were actively using it, not during screen off time.

As soon as you unlocked phone, I guess all sync-enabled apps started doing their thing.

However, as I've posted earlier, it is not the rom draining the battery, but so far has mainly been caused by (G)apps, not to speak of prolonged BT/GPS use (WiFi works reasonably good in powersave mode).

Attached are 2 screenshots of my phone just now with about 80 minutes screen-on time, 20 hours unplugged, 59% battery left (sorry, forgot to switch to English first).

I did disable all sync settings I could find, disabled background data and disabled some gapps-events and used an app "Dev Tools+" to kill a wakelock I experienced for "Google System Updater" or something.

My last (manual) boot was 9:12 hours ago, since then 8:41 hours Deep Sleep reported by BetterBatteryStats.
[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
Bet Batt Stats reports deep sleep when the phone is absolutely not in deep sleep. So that's a little unreliable. Can't have 10 hours since boot, 9 hours of deep sleep, and a combined 15 hours of wake locks. (Just example numbers, but I see that kind of activity reported every time)

However, you're onto something with disabling all syncs. I've done that and seen an improvement over the past couple weeks.

As for the battery dropping immediately after the screen comes on, I think it's because the device is using a lot of battery during sleep but not reporting it properly. So when the phone wakes up it suddenly has a lot less gas in the tank than it's expecting and the battery falls fast until the stats match the actual level.

Where did you get this Dev Tools +? I can't find it on the Play Store or with a google search. Is it spelled weird?
[HTC Sensation] tobitege:
Yeah, I know, we exchanged about this shortly several pages ago. However, with screen off I got pretty much flat lines.

The "normal" syncs are easy to disable, but do not seem sufficient. Disabling events on the Google Framework Service (with e.g. STP,ROM Toolbox Pro etc.) and freezing some other Google Syncs (as you posted earlier) may be necessary, too.

Agreed, as battery voltage is not 100% accurate AFAIK.

The app is on Google Play as "Dev Tools+", author is named "@KENNYDUDE".

If you like we could exchange details by PM to e.g. narrow down a list of actions on how to improve battery life?

Cheers
[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
Yeah let's do that. Once we have something viable we can post the results publicly so it's not a trial and error process in the thread.

So far I have a huge list of things that don't help at all! I've disabled or deleted so much stuff that I'm shocked the phone actually boots. And I still get nasty wake locks.
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
I think android is generally quite bad at reading battery stats.

I've had my phone drain very quickly then take hours to get from 4% to power off, and that is with a lot of ROMs in the last year and a half.
[HTC Sensation] Konstigt:
The strange thing is, I have pretty much the same apps and same syncing now as I have always had when using stock. But on both ViperS and this ROM (the only two I've used for a longer period of time) I have very poor battery life. Spontaneously I think the biggest difference is when I use Bluetooth.

I have ordered a Anker battery which I will start using as soon as it arrives. Because of course my original battery is in worse condition now than it was a couple of months ago (since it ages).
[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
Yeah 4% is definitely a magic number on every ROM I've ever used. When it hits 4% you have to practically short the connectors on the battery to drain it further.
[HTC Sensation] tobitege:
@Skip: on a sidenote, the author of BetterBatteryStats (asksven) also has a nifty app called "Better Wifi on/off" in the market and it works quite well.
[HTC Sensation] giantflash:
@Skipjacks and @tobitege

So now we are three. As you mabe read the last pages I mentioned a few things about the battery. You can eliminate the alarm wakelock from gnow. Just disable all events from gnow in the google servcie framework. And the reason for the wakelock is not the syncronisation. It must be in the service framework, beacuse after freezing this my phone can sleep very well^^

And it's not a problem from the rom. Without having gapps installed, the phone will sleep (I tried it with the nogapps blankstore instead of the playstore, but it's not as far as the playstore).

I tried a lot of things but till now I couldn't get rid of the wakelock from gapps. And it is impacting battery life.
[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
I read through the thread of the new bone stock AOSP JB rom. There is 1 battery screen shot in that thread that shows the same wake lock issues we have. That's without any CM additions. So it's a google screw up, not a CM or Bruce screw up (Not that I had ANY doubts!!!). 4.1.2 just isn't up to snuff.

In other news, suddenly incoming SMS doesn't vibrate properly again. It's weird. I had this problem for weeks, then it went away with a new build, now it's back randomly (after working on the current build). I have it set up to vibrate 3 times on an incoming SMS. But it only vibrates 1 time (meanign vibrate pattern...should be beep beep beep but it's just beep). It might be a Go SMS issues. Personally I can't wait for the new messaging app that allows theming because I'm ready to never deal with Go SMS again.
[HTC Sensation] tobitege:
I've played around with disabling events within System Tuner Pro, e.g. for Google Services Framework, such as

- CONNECTIVITY_CHANGE (also disables BACKGROUND_DATA_SETTINGS_CHANGED and LOGIN_ACCOUNTS_CHANGED)

- GSERVICES_CHANGED (disables several other events, too)

- CHECKIN

Thing is, dis-/enabling some of the events triggers the same for one or more (dependent?) other events automatically.

Not sure, though, if this is done by STP or by JB itself.

Besides that I froze Google Contacts/Calendar Sync, Google Search, Picasa Uploader and Talk.

I don't use/need them and haven't experienced averse effects, yet. Play store still works fine.
[HTC Sensation] big fancy:
Shim your battery.
[HTC Sensation] Mercvtio:
Hmmm... I rebooted it many times since I first had this issue. I even wiped data, just to check, wiped dalvik and cache, and fixed permissions... That didn't change a thing. How can I have no interface ? That's really weird...

Yes, that is very strange. I looked in the code and I can see that the phone is trying to find an network interface to internet

but can't find any.

The line in your logcat with "got type=-1":

10-21 15:48:54.388 D/Tethering(353): notifying tethered with iface =null

It shows that it can't find any such network interface.

I usually do these steps:

-stop all internet connections

-reboot phone

-start mobile internet

-activate the Wi-Fi hotspot on phone

-connect with tablet to phone's Wi-Fi hotspot
