Wrong Time

Installed 10/03 after full wipe and the clock shows wrong time (always +4 hours). Its set to "automatic date and time". Ironically 4EXT shows the correct time. Anyone else experiencing the same issue? All previous build did not have the issue so I flashed back 9/20 but the time is still wrong.
[HTC Sensation] wi1dfl0wer:
What build are you using? What does your battery stats say is using the highest percentage?

You might want to install BetterBatteryStats. It can give you a more detailed view of your battery usage.
[HTC Sensation] xenios:
Battery Life

I am using Bruce's Kang since the 24/9 build. I have come from Elegancia, before that Viper and before that ARHD roms. I have my phone for more that a year now and I've spent probably a month or two total on stock rom.

Best battery life I've had was with ARHD with Mikes builds around March/April, later builds were downhill. Standby literrally was endless, 4-5 hours passed until I dropped from 100% (without using phone, just checking time and/or notifications from time to time).

Now on to Bruce's releases:

With the 24/9 build I got a mixed bag until I realized that my phone was not entering Deep Sleep while bluetooth was on (but not paired to anything). Once I turned of bluetooth when not in use, things got better (almost a day on standby).

On that and later builds (01/10 is the one I have now) it's been better on standby, but when actually using the phone I could literally see the battery meter run empty (I have battery HD and it displays the percentage in notification area). It's like 90% and 5 minutes later goes down to 85% and so on (all this while surfing on wifi or using flipboard). You can really run the battery down in an hour or so of using the phone.

I have experimented with the governors (feeling most comfortable with Badass right now) and cpu frequencies (I have the min to 192 now which seems to be stable). I tried setting the Max to 1080 but the battery was emptying itself at subjectively the same pace as before so there was no point in taking a performance hit with no other gains, so I went back to 1566.

Yesterday I decided to play a bit with the voltages with System Tuner pro and I undervolted every frequency by two clicks. That seems to have made a great difference on actual phone using endurance. I am not an expert, but I think maybe the voltage tables need a little hand in the kernel to keep the cpu's apetite in check.

By the way, great job Bruce. I was skeptic of moving away from Sense roms so far, but after feeling the smoothness and speed of your release I am never going back.

I had this issue on one of the early builds of this Rom. I found out that the internal GPS antenna wasn't ticked under GPS source, though it is the only option to choose. I ticked the box, issue was gone.

Sent from the great-great-great-great-grandchild of a string phone.
[HTC Sensation] gsmyth:
I also use ad away and have great battery life
[HTC Sensation] Nemphys:
Exactly the same case here, but why are some users getting great battery life and some don't?

We definitely need to spot the source of the problem here and after searching for almost 10 days now, I'm out of ideas.

Even ordered an anker yesterday, but I am pretty sure it will not make any difference...
[HTC Sensation] Rico84:
I know we are all OT, but I want to thank you guys for keeping this threading entertaining:good::laugh: And thanks again Bruce for your incredible work. This ROM has been a like a breath of fresh "country" air for my Sensation! It's great to get away from the "city-like" Sense environment:D

[HTC Sensation] websiege:
Yes. I can of course change it to manual but don't really want to do that.

[HTC Sensation] Spr33y:
We live in different countries, use different apps and have different phone habits. You could write a PhD thesis on variances in battery life. Everyone's mileage varies. This rom's battery life has come a very long way. Considering the most recent release was today, there's no sense in talking about battery life since it takes several cycles for the battery life to become representative of the rom.
[HTC Sensation] websiege:
Flashed 10/01 - same thing. Flashed 10/03 again - same thing. Cleared data - same thing. Checked off auto and time zone reboot (no change since its now on manual).

Removed SIM and reboot + full wipe and flash 10/03 again. FIXED !!!!!!!! Very weird.

I'm now getting a CM Updater stopped working random errors tho.

This..........!
[HTC Sensation] slacker1979:
Bruce 10/3 is butter. S2W ,zram and badass settings are super easy to enable and the only thing I noticed was video recording was broke but a simple gallery wipe solved that. Can't really judge battery for a day or so but it doesn't seem any worse after a few hours .

Thanks for your hard work and time. You're the man

REMEMBER TO HIT THANKS IF I HELPED YOU IN ANY WAY, IT'S POLITE AND APPRECIATED.
[HTC Sensation] Sibbi:
Thank you so much. This solved the only issue I had with this Rom!
[HTC Sensation] FiddleGoose:
That for sure makes sense, however, the differences are astounding!
[HTC Sensation] Bluewall:
Maybe found the reason of people bad battery. At least, this may help you.

Used BetterBatteryStats, my biggest wakelock was "AlaramManager"

So i runed dumpsys alarm in terminal, look what i've got http://twitpic.com/b0ren0/full

yes, it seems to be the calendar.

I just stopped to sync my calendar right now, will tell you how it goes :)
[HTC Sensation] skater4690:
Anyone?
[HTC Sensation] rojovilla:
IMHO, it's still wonky (doesn't work all the time) as it was in CM9.
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
Nice find, I use APW calender but I think it still uses google calender service to sync.

Anyone experiencing a strange animation glitch when using the home button multitasking on the 10/3 build?
[HTC Sensation] heavy_metal_man:
Hey guys, currently rocking out with build 1/10/12 build 1 Bruce kernel, and all I have to say is this battery life is mental! I've not been going heavy on it today/yesterday And I'm currently on 32% after 1d/ 10h/50mins :D:D:D:cool::cool::cool:

Screenshots added ;)
[HTC Sensation] Sloopjoshb:
Anyway to disable the CRT animation?

[HTC Sensation] Ducter:
Quick question, is video playback still an on going issue? Previous builds excluding the latest as I haven't tried it would sometimes not play, graphical errors, or start to play and just suddenly stop saying can't play the video. This is always videos recorded with the camera and changing video apps from stock to mx player etc., disabling hardware overlays had no change.

Thanks for any responses.
[HTC Sensation] anthonyly:
how do i make sweep2wake work? because i flashed the tamcore's enable sweep2 wake but its not workin
[HTC Sensation] flare4000:
Goto system etc intd(I don't remember the exact name) then open bruces file then you can read the instructions.
[HTC Sensation] anthonyly:
i don't understand... what is system etc intd?
[HTC Sensation] flare4000:
Goto the root of the device with a root explorer then go to system then etc, then intd then there should be a file with Bruce in it.
[HTC Sensation] DarkPrinceByWWW:
+1. Also when I use SwitchPro widget toggle to switch the screen off, I see the display switching off two times ^o^ To turn the phone on, I have to press the power button two times. All only because of the crt animation :'(

And how to disable s2w? It is still on although the value is set to 0 :(

---------- Post added at 01:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:59 AM ----------

Set window animation to off in the developer settings. Not a perfect solution, but it works :)
[HTC Sensation] nicknc:
Hey guys. I'm having some difficulty enabling MTP mode (I know, MSC is better-- this is so I can sync Zune songs).

I've gotten to USB Computer Connection, and select "Media Device (MTP)", but it doesn't persist. I even tried editing data\property\persist.sys.usb.config to read "mtp,adb", but it reverts after a reboot to "mass_config".

Is there something I'm missing here? Is MTP (or PTP, which doesn't work either) disabled?

Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] M@rshy:
I put a 10 second timer on the camera, propped it up and took a self pic. Or attempted to, it shutdown so I stood there for a ridiculous amount of time waiting. :p

I'll see if I can get a logcat of it.
[HTC Sensation] slacker1979:
I just tried without a problem. Not saying it didn't happen to you but it doesn't seem to be broke per say .

I was going to sleep but in just noticed something.

The picture taken are WAY better this is incredibly better lol no more weird colors and artifacts

Thanks for all!
[HTC Sensation] M@rshy:
Yup, isolated event. I tried wiping the cache and dalvik. I had another reboot earlier too. I think before today I had 1 previously. I'm going to wipe it if it continues and try.
[HTC Sensation] rojovilla:
I've had that happen in the past as well as the other associated problems of transferring to/from the sdcard
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
Change this line in build.prop

# UMS

persist.sys.usb.config=mass_storage,adb
[HTC Sensation] DevourDarkness:
Any news on a fix for the artifacts in Chrome?
[HTC Sensation] nicknc:
Bruce, thanks for the quick reply!

I made the change mentioned above, my build.prop now reads "persist.sys.usb.config=mtp,adb", however data/property/persist.sys.usb.config still reverts to mass_config and will not permit mtp to be selected in USB Computer Connection.

What do you recommend?
[HTC Sensation] Ducter:
To anyone else wondering, video playback of previously recorded videos is still not correct. Still get tearing and in general choppy playback on latest 03 build. Otherwise, ROM is smooth and seems to be pretty fast.

Ok, a few more reboots and now it persists. Unfortunately, my PC won't recognize the phone (using Win7 x64). I installed HTC Sync on a whim, but the phone doesn't even appear in Device Manager.

I've tried it with and without USB debugging enabled. No impact. Tried different USB cables. The phone charges off of USB.
[HTC Sensation] skater4690:
Crap well thanks... Wish that feature worked but oh well...

Try going into recovery and do it from there (4ext).

[HTC Sensation] InfamousBlade:
I had the issue this afternoon too. Strangely it was fixed after I cleared caches. Maybe give that a try? Couldn't hurt, though I'm not sure the two things are related.

---------- Post added at 01:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:35 AM ----------

Sending just fine here. Haven't received any today so I can't tell you if that works but I've never had that be an issue with previous builds.
[HTC Sensation] kypeth:
the best test is to send one to yourself.
[HTC Sensation] diosys:
I am on 1st Oct Build... Everything rocks however just one thing bothers. Quite often the data stops functioning and the set is required to be rebooted. The H icon becomes grey and despite doing airplane or 2G mode the data connection does not restore.

Any fix for this ?

On thing more. If i update from 1st Oct to 3rd oct build would all the settings / data be wiped out ???

Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] Mesaman2012:

that's a problem with their phone, not yours.
[HTC Sensation] DevourDarkness:
Is this good or bad battery life? I can't decide...
[HTC Sensation] krakout:
I definitely have battery draining issues... I haven't done any real analysis, but During the day it loses massive amounts of juice (maybe 30-40% within two-three hours sometimes). I don't think it's even got something to do with the screen, but rather radio: at night I set it to airplane mode and battery loss is minimal.

But I still use it (Oct1 build I think) and like it :)

Audio's Speaker doesn't work! When i want to play a mp3.. sorry for my english

Changelog

3 October

Added Sweep2Wake - This is what I wanted from this ROM. Thank you. (I have broken volume keys and non responsive power button.)
[HTC Sensation] DarkPrinceByWWW:
@bruce: In the init script you missed the s2w variable on echo:

"setting sweep2wake to "

echo > /sys/android_touch/sweep2wake

So the user chosen state can't be set. It should be like

" setting sweep2wake to "

echo SWEEP2WAKE > /sys/android_touch/sweep2wake

Edit: Even though correcting the code line, there is no change in s2w state. Had to edit the sweep2wake file manually. Maybe some conflict with access rights as sweep2wake file is set to 644?
[HTC Sensation] jesterpaul:
Been testing this one for about a week now. Have run CM9.1 and the Opensensation version prior.

I still find CM9 builds a bit faster in general responsiveness when smoothness scrolling and with transitions. To me on my Sensation XE 23/09 and 1/10 Version 1 builds were smoothest so far. Still this looks most promising, so hopefully in time I will see real world effect of project butter on my Sensation :)

Otherwise ROM has had few issues except for known ones, although I have a couple of queries about this:

I was getting great pictures with the camera until I stupidly clicked on button to switch to front facing, and from that time on camera closes every time I open it, with a Gallery FC notification. I can still run gallery to look at my media though.

Tried reflashing ROM over the current installation, and fixing permissions to no avail. Does anyone know of a fix that doesn't require a full wipe and reinstall?

(I have downloaded a lot of apps and customized home screens a lot so it takes time to recreate this, and would like to avoid unnecessary repeats).

Only other issue is QRky Scanner app can't seem to read QR codes. It just keeps refocusing. You see the yellow dots as it tries to identify the QR code pattern, but then loses focus, and refocuses again, and this pattern repetas over and over without getting a reading,

This app works fine on Sense ROM. Is that camera issue related? Anyone with any ideas?

Otherwise great work Bruce. Really hope we will soon have a fully working JB ROM thanks to your hard work :):good:
[HTC Sensation] XporteR21:
Finaly i can post here!!!!

Hy all can anyone help me about this sweep2wake to run it i try ALL to run it even "daddyspud" made video for mee

and don't work i made exacly like he did but don't work i try to reinstall whole rom with kernel, gapps still don't work meybe i made some mestake but i rly don't know. Sorry for my bad english :/
[HTC Sensation] gsmyth:
For the camera issue, go to Settings, Gallery, clear data & cache ( you wont lose any photos)

For the QR scanner problem, its probably app related (incompatibility with jellybean). try google goggles, works for me and should do the same job.
[HTC Sensation] Catnap:
Settings -> Apps -> All -> Gallery -> Clear Data.
[HTC Sensation] rgawenda:
My version is correct, I've only to change the variable value and it's working nice

[HTC Sensation] ldefeo1:
hey so far so good this rom shows a lot of promise.

i am having a couple of issues.

this rom doesn't seem to like swiftkey 3, it keep reverting to the jb keyboard as default.

the cynagenmod setting to reassign the hardware buttons dont work

A few visual artefacts while browsing in chrome (might be swift key related)

oct 1 build 1 fw 3.32

Thanks keep up the good work
[HTC Sensation] gsmyth:
Think these are all known issues. If you backup app+data of swiftkey with titanium backup, then uninstall and finally restore app+data the app is installed in a different partition and survive a reboot.

Never used the reassign hardware buttons feature so not sure on this one.

Think there are known glitches in chrome, I use Dolphin browser beta, really fast tabbed browser (like the chrome desktop tabs), with loads of settings and a lot smaller in size than chrome, worth a look.
[HTC Sensation] Notarzt23:
Hey guys i have a problem with google voice search. If i say for example "show me the weather" it is supposed to show me the weather right now. The problem is that i always get then search results for the spoken sentence. Google is basically not answering the question.
[HTC Sensation] jonsharky:
"Show me the weather" is... a bad question.. perhaps you can try "what is the weather like today? "
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
If you just say 'weather' it should work.

I've only tested on UK English as that is the only language I'm fluent in.
[HTC Sensation] Notarzt23:
Ok "weather" is working but why does it not answers questions like "whats the weather in belgium"? it only shows the search results.

here is a yt video of how it should work: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kw-RzN4xYyE

You could try: how is the weather in xyz

Also you have to switch the system language to English.

@bruce: In 3 Oct build there is no way to disable s2w permanently :( I tried even to set swee2wake content to 0 and the rights to 111 and after reboot its still on :(

S2w should be disabled from the start... At least for me this was the case.
[HTC Sensation] gsmyth:
I tried it as well and tried to turn it off again, rebooted and it was still there. Just reflashed the Rom again and is was off.
[HTC Sensation] DarkPrinceByWWW:
Yeah, reflash the rom, wiped cache and dalvik and it is off now. The init.d script seems to be complete now.

[HTC Sensation] StuartTheFish:
Hmm, might give this a go. Is this stable enough to be used as a daily ROM? I'm currently using Virtuous Inquisition, and don't want to make the phone any less reliable.

Sorry I've not had the time to read the whole thread, but looking at the first two posts of this thread, is the front facing camera issue the ONLY thing that doesn't work, or are there other things I might miss?
[HTC Sensation] gsmyth:
I came from VI also and flashed this ROM as I was curious to try JB, that was a month ago and I haven't looked back. Everything that I used before works for me fine (bar the front cam obviously, which isnt a big deal), some things better like playing music over bluetooth, always jumped and skipped on stock sense and VI. I use nova launcher as i did previously and it works great, all very smooth and stable. Great battery life as well, get anywhere between 20-34 hrs with 2-3 hrs screen on time. Google now works well also. There are updates pretty much every 2-3 days which is fantastic and more work being done on the kernal also, this is pretty much the best ROM for the sensation at the moment in my opinion. Just take a nandroid and flash it to see what you think, thats what I did. :)
[HTC Sensation] Flow:
Request:

Can the mic gain when recording video (with audio of course) be lowered in the ROM please?

And perhaps be set to mono instead of stereo?

The audio quality is still so bad (when recording anything a bit loud) that a lot of my video's shot are worthless...

I can't adjust any of this in the CM10 ROM (camera) settings :/
[HTC Sensation] DarkPrinceByWWW:
Yeah, but you also have to install your apps mostly with Titanium Backup to let widgets and keyboards survive after every reboot.
[HTC Sensation] gsmyth:
Is that just for 'paid' apps/widgets though?
[HTC Sensation] kualmente:
yes.

I had one isolated case with a free app (a home banking app), but AFAIK it affects paid applications only.
[HTC Sensation] dre-z:
I misclicked in the camera app and switched the front cam on and now my camera app f/c every time. I didn't find it in the app settings to delete the data...how can i switch back to the normal cam?!

Everyone's miles vary. Nature of battery life comparisons.. I should also point out I have a bigger battery as well..

The Virtuous Inquisition ROM had excellent battery life for me... This is better. Same battery.

[HTC Sensation] threeeye:
can you provide a link please ?
[HTC Sensation] one80oneday:
Everyone says battery results vary however screen on time has always been 2-3 hours no matter ROM, kernel, etc. If your screen is always off than your battery will last longer.

[HTC Sensation] EndoSurf:
Screen would typically be the biggest use.. Probably find you will drain it faster if you use it as wireless hotspot too... 3g/UTMS usage sucks power.

There is no accurate measurement for these things, all subjective and all on peoples patterns. Also need to factor in battery age.
