[HTC Sensation] bilbo6209:
hey guys I have an issue and am hoping someone here has seen it and knows what the fix is.

Started around the time when Google put out a new version of Maps that was causing hard resets on Sensations (and I believe other phones) both my fiancee and myself have been having an issue where we will loose network conectivity, we will still get bars but they turn gray and cycle through H 3g 2g and no moniker... at this time we can not access anything on the network except phone calls and sometimes SMS messages.

Our first thought was that somehow the bad Maps update cooked our sim cards so we both get new Sim cards from t-mobile, this seemed to help but a week or two later the issue came back, we both got new Sim cards from t-mobile again and again the issue seemed to be better for a short period but then came back. the issue will show up for anywhere from 5 to 10 minutes to hours. If we go home and connect to our wireless we gain full network access (but cell data is still bad until it self corrects).

Im wondering if there is a newer radio or some other kind of fix for the issue. I have done a complete wipe and load of CM10 (from this thread) on both phones and we have both had the issue again since, we are running the 11/26 and the the next ROM after that one (one on each phone no upgrades etc since applying the rom).

I am currently running Radio -11.22.3504.07_m

Thank you in advance

Bill

Install rom build 12/10 , install GetRil from google play and test :)
[HTC Sensation] glaeb:
Am I the only one who doesn't have any problems with this ROM? I'm on the 23 November built... and it is amazing

Except for the fps lag that I sometimes have while scrolling on home screen and menu screen
[HTC Sensation] :
Had no issues at all for the last few builds either, not tried the GPS for a while though. Getting amazing battery life too after partitioning my SD Card and formatting before flashing.
[HTC Sensation] rojovilla:
That was a good build and I remained there until 120121207 as I was having too many issues with other two prior. Still on the same build and haven't experienced any issues either. Will wait for bruce's new build tonight/tomorrow and see if anyone else has issues. Otherwise, I'm staying put :D
[HTC Sensation] Mebborne:
Seems like it only effects some people, but I also had issues with YouTube playback on the December 10 build. It's not terrible, just occasional abstract stuff appearing, especially if you jump forward or back while playing back. Went back to December 7 build for now.
[HTC Sensation] glaeb:
Im thinking to do a format aswell because the scrolling is not always smooth :)
[HTC Sensation] blahbl4hblah:
Please don't complain about the scolling. If you have been using cm9 then you would know it will always be an issue
[HTC Sensation] rojovilla:
There's a scrolling issue? Hmmm, haven't heard of that! :D
[HTC Sensation] InfamousBlade:
Minor issue but has anyone noticed that there are two buttons that say "Read" in the messaging expanded notifications? Pretty sure it was just a typo someone made because one clearly operates as read and the other is supposed to be view.
[HTC Sensation] jan.ringas:
I think I didn't make myself clear enough:

I also don't think the systemUI force closing when applying a theme is a problem (as you said it only takes a few seconds to restart itself, additionally you normally don't change your theme very often).

Sometimes I do have the systemUI force closing during normal use, though. This happens for example if I pull down the notification bar or open the recently used apps. The systemUI will restart in these cases also, but will directly force close again (and again, and again, ...).

The error message in aLogcat is in this case very similar to if not the same as the one I wrote in my post cited by you. I therefore thought the systemUI FC's (when changing the theme and when using the phone normally) might be related to each other.

I hope I made clear what my point is. If not don't hesitate to ask further questions ;)
[HTC Sensation] blahbl4hblah:
Neither have I. But you know these noobs they have been on sense too long and expect the same thing
[HTC Sensation] blahbl4hblah:
Search the thread. This was asked and answered to already
[HTC Sensation] Tung_meister:
I've just installed this, I'm totally new to the sensation as I've bought one for my girlfriend for Christmas. I presume the scrolling issue is the judder that occurs when scrolling. If so why will it always be an issue, what is the cause?
[HTC Sensation] Hamsterkill:
I'm doubtful the current state of it is intended. It'd be absolutely atrocious UI deisgn to have two button look exactly the same and do different things. In any case, it's an issue that needs to be fixed upstream, rather than in this ROM.

AOSP.
[HTC Sensation] Tung_meister:
what causes the issue, is it not something that will be overcome?
[HTC Sensation] phantomblu:
LBE Privacy Guard keeps crashing my phone and causes an endless booting loop. Anyone else have this problem?
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
Yep, has never worked on jb for me.

Try os2, it has Pdroid 2 built in
[HTC Sensation] JG:
WOW-It is funny! I have been having no issues what-so-ever on any builds that were not fixable by myself. just minor issues that mods or apps were causing that removing and re-installing has always fixed.. Only recent thing I had noticed was some distorted video that seemed to clear itself up with the rom just settling in and maybe a doing a wipe here and there of cache and dalvik,but gr8 battery life using badass,no wifi,network,data,mms issues to speak of at all and I consider myself a moderate to heavy user..I Do recommend if you use or update frequently for those who know a thing or two to make themselves a zip of all there mods and apps along with Gapps and whatever else you want so when you flash the latest build you can follow it up with your personal modded zip that will include any mods,fixes or customizations.This is what I do! and it saves me alot of trouble ..:D
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
HTC causes the issue by not releasing source code for some proprietary stuff (because they aren't allowed to or just don't want to share), and they are not supporting our device anymore so no it won't be overcome.
[HTC Sensation] slacker1979:
Actually Bruce HTC said that all devices that have more than 512mb ram will get Jellybean so we're still supported for now unless they change their mind. Not helping us right now though.
[HTC Sensation] sjknight413:
False, HTC have stated all devices with more than 512mb of Ram will be CONSIDERED for the jelly bean update. In no way have they sated any device outside the one series will get jelly bean.

Basically we aren't getting it.

Football himself has said he is 99.9% sure we aren't getting it.
[HTC Sensation] Spr33y:

Let's get this thread back on topic now ^^
[HTC Sensation] slacker1979:
Well since the Sensation was within the 18month update frame that Google pushed all carriers to abide by when 4.1 and 4.2 was released and the Sensation meets all of the criteria to be updated I'll wait for official word.

I don't operate on rumors and HTC saying it'll be considered is more impressive/credible than a twitter "leak".
[HTC Sensation] batyjewfro:
Network Connectivity Issues?

I am really loving this ROM, but for some reason after I installed it I started having issues with the T-mobile network. Incoming calls drop a lot more, outgoing calls sometimes take multiple attempts to go through and even then are choppy, SMS/MMS has a lot of issues and takes many attempts to send. I really would love to continue using this ROM, but these are some pretty major problems that I have not had with any other ROM, JB, ICS, or GB.

I have the HTC Sensation, running the Dec. 10th release, HBOOT: 1.29.0000, RADIO: 11.24A.3504.31_M, S-OFF.

I've already tried a wipe and install, but that didn't help anything, so I hope that someone can give me another suggestion.
[HTC Sensation] alpha_dro:
Actually the statement was that devices under 512 MB RAM will not be getting JB. This doesn't guarantee anything to the Sensation, unfortunately.

Edit: Oops just noticed your follow up.

[HTC Sensation] undercover:
Heh. Football is a lot more consistent and reliable than HTC themselves.
[HTC Sensation] kaesekopf:
can anyone explain why my phone and a number of applications have been randomly freezing? I have successfully run this ROM for the last few months, but in the last week I have found different apps (power amp, opera) and the phone and nova launcher keep freezing/hanging, and the only way to fix it is a reset by taking the battery out.

up until about last week or two weeks ago, it worked fine.
[HTC Sensation] marcjw:
Probably not until you start using the ROM at the top of this thread. Your sig says ARHD. And then it would probably be helpful to know some small details - like which version you're on, full wipe or not, any mods you've added, firmware version, hboot version, s-on or off, recovery version... You know, the small things. Then, what have you done so far to troubleshoot?
[HTC Sensation] kaesekopf:
Hi. no, I am using the Kang? CM10? Pyramid? Whatever you call it, CM10 mod at this thread My signature is out of date and hadn't noticed that until you pointed it out.

Android Version: 4.1.2

Kernel: 3.0.51-jelly-00183

CM version 10-20121114-bruce

When I first installed an early-November build, I did a full wipe (and wiped the Dalvik, I think?). I updated to Nov-14's version through just a plain old install from the 4ext program (?). (Sorry, my terminology is bad). Also on S-OFF.

Troubleshooting: I've just skimmed this thread hoping someone else had the issue.
[HTC Sensation] tobitege:
In your situation I'd try to re-trace most recent steps like installed apps/mods and remove or disable them.

Within Titanium Backup, for example, you can sort your apps llist by last update date or installation date (if not coming from full wipe) to identify newest additions.

I'd also be very cautious with applying any (or too many) 3rd party tweaking mods that may have adverse effects or even cause bootloops.

This rom runs already pretty great on its own without any mods and a different launcher may be more effective (e.g. common "lag" complaint) than obscure technical tweaks which may have worked great for previous android versions.

However, the first thing you could do is to just re-flash the latest rom without any other actions (cache/dalvik get regenerated with this rom's update script anyway).

MHO. :)
[HTC Sensation] kaesekopf:
I thought about re-tracing steps with the applications, however, a large number of them have experienced updates in the last 2 weeks, which is about the time the phone has been "acting up."

I don't THINK I have any 3rd party mods (not to my knowledge, at least, just this CM10 ROM and the Gapps file associated with it).

Maybe I'll just bump up to the latest version. I am kinda bummed MHL (what is that?), Chrome, Bluetooth don't work. Were these issues in the Nov-14 build as well? I know Chrome was.

It just seemed to be working so well (really, up until the last two weeks, it ran flawlessly), I didn't want to bump up to something with known errors. haha.
[HTC Sensation] krugm0f0:
Dude, we're on 20121210 now. You're on a month old build. Update to latest version.
[HTC Sensation] consolation:
I'm just coming to the sensation from the original atrix , how severe is the lack of auto focus in video camera? Is the focus set at a certain distance?
[HTC Sensation] tobitege:
@kaesekopf:

The issues you mentioned have been there from the start, basically, like graphical issues in Chrome or MHL not working (HDMI output), due to unavailable, updated graphics drivers for JB (blame HTC). There are audio issues addressed by the CM team and Bruce as well, so there's "a work in progress" for those.

Bruce has generously worked on tweaks for both BT and graphical glitches. Those seem to work for several users, but may not resolve all issues in all possible apps/games and device configurations.

In the end, issues are fixed incrementally and to me it does not make sense to stay on an outdated build, especially if you know how to make a nandroid. ;)

As to the "tracing your steps" part: regardless of apps being updated, you can selectively disable/freeze them either in Settings->Apps or use tools like Titanium Backup.

Not sure if that's a reason not to go that route, maybe I misunderstood your point there.

Phone crash

Hi,

I have a problem with the latest firmware. It started with the last 4 firmware, the phone works fine, but when you turn on bluetooth phone reboots and goes to the loading screen cyanogenmod. I did superwipe, nothing helps. In November firmware had no such problems. How to cure the problem? Now I'm on the latest firmware.
[HTC Sensation] Bornin:
Install again with full wipe from recovery. Don't use superwipe script. As stated in OP
[HTC Sensation] corumuk:
Tango now fc's when a call connects and viber seems to have no sound in or out. Both were working fine on the previous build. Getting abysmal battery now too.
[HTC Sensation] molesaied88:
yea i just got a wake lock after updating to new build
[HTC Sensation] honswolo:
:cowboy:I have been using this ROM and I am about to flash the latest update now. I just wanted to say thanks for all of your hard work on this ROM it has been great so far!!!!
[HTC Sensation] th1rt3en:
Got it flashed fine bruce, much appreciated.

Still getting the issue where Gnow will act like it's listening, but the mic doesn't pick anything up until it stops trying, and you hit "Tap mic to start speaking"

I tried replacing the "audio.primary.msm8660.so" file, but got force close problems, maybe i did that wrong? What build should I have been taking it from? Am I suppose to set any sort of permissions on it?
[HTC Sensation] motopaddy:
google now fc

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but just flashed the august 9 version and noticed google now force closes every time...

Does anyone have the same issue.

Flashed 09 over a previous version of this ROM without wipe amd witgout reflashing gapps. I let it settle for 10min then a reboot.

All the rest works just fine, video a bit choppy but only google now fc's every time i try it.

Search widget fc, google app fc and through notification drawer also fc.

Any solutions? Thanks!

Please format system and cache, reflash ROM and gapps if you are coming from another build and have issues.
[HTC Sensation] Arsenal23:
Does TamCore's latest kernel work on this rom? Saw something about CM on his twitter
[HTC Sensation] pilzj:
Thanks for the advide, but also didnt do it for me. I did not perform a scriped wipe inbetween. Dont think that was the issue.

Thanks anyways.

No problem..sorry I couldn't be of more help..fyi, the backup I restored was viper sense 4..

Would I have screwed something up if I had superwiped between one of my CM10 wipes, like 7 wipe/flashes ago?

Come on Bruce, get the device tree up and running. :)
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
Come and look after my kids while I do it then

Good response.

Peeps should be thankful he's doing anything at all.

Take your time Bruce. You're doing an awesome job dude.

[HTC Sensation] kaleonkells:
9/8 had boot loop at first but now I'm good.. nice work and feels smoother with out tamcore flashed yet. Gnow works better too
[HTC Sensation] sophisticated_one:
I really just want to state my happyness bout this rom. Using it quite a while now and performance and batt life is good as never before (after 13h of use with 1:40h screentime still 53%). Still on dec7 and feared of updating cos it cant get better actually ^^.

Deepest thanks and respect to bruce.
[HTC Sensation] Puck123456:
Sorry, I did full wipe, not a superwipe. My mistake ))) So it's not a cure (((
[HTC Sensation] dkephart:
But...did you re- flash? (Assuming you have a nandroid, try first without wiping anything.)

If problem persists, you will need to get a last_kmsg and look for what happened. Not having that issue, myself.

Yrs,

dkephart
[HTC Sensation] aidanski:
Does anyone know any issues that may make it unable for me to connect to my college's wifi? I have TUN set to 1 in the 89bruce file inside init.d

It requires a login page, which will not appear. There are no conflicting DNS settings either. Thanks in advance for any help.
[HTC Sensation] BobbyHill:
Sounds like the T-Mobile data issue that's been plaguing many people using CM/AOSP based roms (do a search on this thread about it.) Having it start at the same time as the maps update is probably coincidental.

There have been a lot of "fixes" posted, but much like when it blinks out, what you do to get it back on is usually coincidental.

I don't have it happen too often, it's probably been close to a month now. Much like you've said, the one way I've always been able to get it right back on is to have T-Mobile use a different sim card. When they replaced mine 3 months ago, I kept the old one in my wallet, and if the data bug strikes me, I just pull that one back out and call t-mobile to activate it, then stick the other one in my wallet and call them back to swap the next time it happens. Kind of a pain, but it works.
[HTC Sensation] tobitege:
TUN is for VPN, not WiFi setup. It's unclear to me, if you have a problem with connecting to your WiFi or if you need a VPN connection?

If you go to Settings->WiFi does your college WiFi network show up? It'll show you also what kind of encryption is used.

If it is something like "WPA/WPA2" and you tap it, it definitely will open a popup for entering your WiFi credentials.

Does that happen for you?
[HTC Sensation] glaeb:
Lol sorry then?, I had a wildfire s before this sensation with cm to. And no I didn't use sense for a long time, when I had this sensation I immediately rooted it and flashed this ROM on it... and yeh I'm not gonna hold my phone 24/7 in my hands for some updates, I just tried to help and name a "bug" in the rom :thumbup:
[HTC Sensation] aidanski:
It's an unsecured connection which requires a login screen accessed via a browser, where the college username and password are entered. It worked once before, but refuses now. The network does appear, and seems to connect fine, but there is no internet access and the login page will not display.
[HTC Sensation] tobitege:
Long-press your WiFi connection, tap "Modify network"; in the popup check the option "Show advanced options".

That will show the Proxy settings where you should enter your details.
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
I've updated the drivers in the kernel so that will probably fix it, I've just got 1 more build error to fix when the kids have gone to bed then I'll upload an updated build.

[HTC Sensation] Phateless:
Is anyone else having a problem with the quick controls in the browser not working? Apologize if this has already been covered and I missed it. Long-ass thread...
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
I think that is a beta feature isn't it?
[HTC Sensation] jan.ringas:
They are working for me, but it's very hard to hit the spot that triggers the quick controls-menu.

I think this is partly because of the display of our Sensation. It's "curved to the inside" (convex) at the edges (quite the opposite to the Nexus 4 which is "curved to the outside" (concave), which makes hitting the right spot difficult.

If you use "ICS Browser+" (available for free via Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...sMSwxLDMsImNvbS5iZWFuc29mdC5icm93c2VycGx1cyJd) you can customize the location of the trigger spot for the quick controls so hitting the correct spot becomes easier (only within ICS Browser+ of course).

-------------------

EDIT: I just saw that ICS Browser+ is not compatible with Jelly Bean, so you will have to try finding the correct spot using the stock JB-Browser.

EDIT2: Attached is a screenshot I captured just moments ago using the stock JB-Browser, so it definitely works once you manage to find the correct spot / gesture.
[HTC Sensation] Wagedroid:
I know the video playback issue has been discussed but I'm also having screen glitches with flashing keyboard and different animations being buggy. This is on 12/10. I remember having these problems early with h/w overlays being the issue. As of latest builds, November 26th was most stable for me but I like being up to date with Bruce's goodies. I use this ROM mostly but lately I've been interested in trying os2 but wondering if it also has these glitches since they are both 12/10 builds?

woman's cm10 sensation Battery life
[HTC Sensation] :
You need to beat 58 h 47m :p
[HTC Sensation] niciuffo:
My battery life sucks with the latest builds. The voltage drops instantly (I always have the phone full charged in the morning), I use it moderately, and some days can't even get home with it. If I start a game and play it for 10-15 minutes, the battery drops 30-40% (!).

I didn't have this problem with the stock ROM, and I can't find a solution, I tried calibrating it a lot of times. I also have an Anker battery and it has the same problem, so I'm guessing it's the phone's fault.
[HTC Sensation] AgEnT x19:
I'm having the same issue.
[HTC Sensation] rawdealer:
OK guys, I've searched, but still have to ask.......which one is smoother and faster; this build or OpenSensation2? I have to flash it on my GF's phone. :))))

Thanks
[HTC Sensation] rojovilla:
Not trying to be rude, but why don't you flash each one and have her decide as that would be the gentlemanly thing to do :D
[HTC Sensation] Wagedroid:
I too have a wife that uses sensation. I gave her the 11/26 build as it turned out to be most stable and its pretty smooth. Just my 2 cents. The latest build has glitches with video playback and animations. The developer is aware of them and plans to real ease an update with these issues fixed if I read correctly

I have been using this ROM for a little over 2 months now and have never experienced the infamous T-Mobile data bug... until now. Just all of a sudden, I've had no mobile data for the last hour or so.
