Yes, I've try it, but unfortunately it is not what I'm looking for.

Yeah, probably hard-coded within the framework somewhere...

Guys i really need some help here concerning that Multi Mount SD app, that was recommended in the second post to get better SD transfer speeds. How can i get that app to work? The strange thing is: in the App it says NOT to use the standard Android app to mount the card but the app(actually its a widget) instead, but what happens is, that i can already access the card on my PC even though i HAVENT yet mounted it, neither with standard application or Multi Mount! How the hell is that possible? I can still choose to active mass storage within the standard application, which works but it changes nothing, the card was visible before and still is after. Even after DEactivating mass storage again its still visble! Using Multi Mount does NOT work, all that happens is nothing for a short time and then it tells me the card was unmounted. It seems like it tries to mount the card at first but fails, which is logical because the card already IS mounted for whatever reason (again: even though i havent used the standard app!!), and then immediatley reverts to unmounted. What the hell is going on here? Ive also tried to change the fast change options in the bruce89 file, didnt help.

Apart from the app, ive heard that enabling MTP to connect the phone to computer might help against low speeds. It was a bit tricky to get the MTP option to persist, i had to edit two system files according to some posts in the main ROM thread here. The option then wasnt automatically reverted to Mass storage anymore, but that PC no longer recognized my Sensation anymore. It only got charged, but no access to the SD card. Didint even show up in the window systray, nothing. Any help with that? I love that ROM but these transfer speeds are really killing it for me :(

TIA

wanna ask a question

can i install launcher other than 'trebuchet' in 23/11 ? since on the 19/11 build i cant install other launcher, it will end to bootloop after i choose a launcher to use with
[HTC Sensation] joomlafreak:
Has anyone tried the latest build ROM from with new drivers. I have always had trouble with video on JB builds. Thanks
[HTC Sensation] tobitege:
That bootloop should not happen. You might go with fresh install as there's clearly something wrong.
[HTC Sensation] tobitege:
There are no new adreno drivers yet (just firmware files).
[HTC Sensation] sweethurt:
The problem comes right after i install 4.2 transformation pack, but in installing this rom before !, i've already done 'format all partition except sdcard' , and i've seen someone mentioned about this bug too
[HTC Sensation] tobitege:
Right, I had that issue only with transformation pack and since then moved to Bruce's OS2 which has the 4.2 camera/keyboard built-in.
[HTC Sensation] dtespud:
I've flashed OS2 now, getting the same problem. Didn't even move away from Ondemand, just set minimum clock to 648Mhz and left it to sleep for a couple of mins. I might go back to CM9.1 later to see if it persists there - what the hell could be causing it? Firmware? Some nvram somewhere storing "it got warm once and any attempts to alter clocks should be punished"? :(

edit - given up and put SetCPU on. No help.

edit2 - given up, running CM9.10, kernel lets me run up to 1188MHz, using Ondemand governor, min speed set to 648Mhz fine and it runs like a champ. No messing about. Problem solved for now, I can use Skype again, but I'm stuck on ICS. Worth trying Bruce CM10/OS2 with a non overclock kernel? Original sensation, should overclock fine, but... I have no clue what else to try.

I have a simple question to ask, is it just me or the that when apollo shows an album art from music, it looks like that the pic were too small, so then it looks so wierd
[HTC Sensation] Craphead:
Hey all, i've noticed the following: after recording a video (doesnt matter if in built-in cam or external app (LG Camera)) it doesnt show me thumbnails for the vids in the gallery, there's just a grey field where the thumb should be. Even though the files can be played flawlessly either with built-in player or other app (MX Player Pro). Anyone experience the same thing or knows a workaround? I have also downloaded another gallery app from play store, same issue. I got the Android 4.2 transformation pack installed if that is of any importance.
[HTC Sensation] sweethurt:
Well, i do have such same problem. Not only the videos that i've been recorded, but also some videos that i moved from my pc
[HTC Sensation] Craphead:
That's what makes it even stranger: the vids ive recorded with the same app (LG Camera) under different ROMs DO have thumbnails! Really dont get this... i've also noticed in LG Cam i can no longer record in H.264, only MPEG4 works now.
[HTC Sensation] realsis:
Hi, I really wanted to give this rom a go but after installation(clean install, full wipe) my data would not work anymore! It would just blink on and off trying to connect but failing. I even tried Get Ril thinking perhaps my Ril was incompatible , when I ran the new ril, same thing happened, blinking data, no connection. I just finally installed another rom, once it booted, my data was restored once more. I really wanted to run this rom but unless someone has a fix for the data issue, I can not use it. Does anyone have a solution for this data connection issue? Does anyone else experience this? Why can some run this rom without issue? Thanks in advance for your advice...
[HTC Sensation] Craphead:
Seriously? This a FAQ-thread, so why the hell dont you even bother to READ the damn FAQ before posting??
[HTC Sensation] realsis:
Your name fits you perfectly.! You don't have to be so rude... never mind, WHATEVER! Thanks for nothing craphead!
[HTC Sensation] tobitege:
The video thumbnail in CM may be broken and/or depend on the video resolution, i.e. may work with low-res, but I haven't tested it personally.

random reboots

Hi,

I'm using the cm-10-20121112-bruce2728-pyramid.zip ROM and I've recently been experiencing random reboots of my htc sensation. It happens when I try to call somebody, when I try top open an application or when I simply scroll through screens on my launcher. When the phone reboots it says that it has a very low battery (around 4%) although it was full before rebooting. If I take the battery out and reboot again the battery state is normal again.

Any idea why this reboots could happen? When I installed the ROM I did a full wipe and it also worked without any reboots the first two weeks. Also, is there any log where I could see why the reboot happened?

Thanks in advance for any info,

gregor
[HTC Sensation] realsis:
Hi yes you can use a logcat and then see from that logcat why the phone is rebooting. Get someone who knows how to read logcat and perhaps they can tell you why. You can download logcat from the market. I believe market even has logcat reader. I hope this is helpful. Best wishes
[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
A last dmesg readout would be more useful in determining the cause of a reboot. Its just as easy to get as a logcat. Plenty of apps will easily give you both.
[HTC Sensation] :
Does disabling the Google Services Framework stuff mentioned on Page 1 break Calendar Sync like Skipjacks said it might?

I want to try and sort AlarmManager Wakelocks that seem to smoke most of my battery :(
[HTC Sensation] tobitege:
I guess so...
[HTC Sensation] flash5000:
You could also try disabling Fast Dormancy according to this post: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=35047893

Please report back if you try it and share your observations! :)

[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
I dont think it will if you dont disable the calendar sync apk or anything in the gsf that has "calendar" in the title. That should disable other things but leave the calendar sync untouched.

Best way to find out for sure is to try it. Just be sure to report the results back so everyone can benefit from what you learned
[HTC Sensation] :
I might give it a bash, a little hesitant though as I depend heavily on a four way calendar sync for my job (Outlook>Google>CalenGoo>2nd Gmail)

Looks like someone else did try and the results weren't great >>HERE<<
[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
That guy basically shut his phone off. He took what I call the broadsword approach.

You want to use the scalpel approach.

Just make the change at night and then change a bunch of calendar appointments and see if they sync. If it works right away it should work forever.
[HTC Sensation] :
Ok....off to score myself a copy of System Tuner Pro :good:

I have got a logcat and stats dump from BBS before I did anything (with monster Wakelocks) and my daily usage is more or less the same so can compare my BBS stats before/after.

No GPS Lock

My GPS works just won't lock. I've confirmed with GPS Status, GPS Test and FasterFix. I've done all the recommended steps regarding those apps. I've tried different navigation apps. I'm on FW 3.33 unlocked with S-OFF. My GPS Lock also did not work with the stable release of CM9.1. I'm currently on the 20121204 CM10 by Bruce.

This is a deal breaker for me as I use the GPS to track for outdoors. Can anyone give anymore steps?

BTW this community is amazing. Tons of great info and just as many people willing to help!
[HTC Sensation] realsis:
Try Gpsfix deluxe. It really works well. It locks on your exact location and it's extremely accurate! It helps me, see if it will work for you. Best wishes.

I live in Kosovo ( Europe) .

I have set fasterfix to europe , and installed gps status , also i have downloaded map of my country, I have set internal gps on settings.

Thank you,

Best regards

[HTC Sensation] Craphead:
I tried to follow the exact instructions on what to disable within the GSF, it only made things worse for me. On the one hand, some of the services i'm supposed to disable REACTIVATE themselves, on the other hand the changes ive made only led to way worse wakelocks than before. Apart from that not even all the services mentioned are there at all to begin with. My conclusion is just that these instructions are simply outdated.

Be aware that fast dormancy only is relevant while you're on the mobile data network. Changing it doesnt have any effect if you're on Wi-Fi (which at least for me is the case for 95% of the time).
[HTC Sensation] :
They were from October and I guess a lot has changed in this ROM since then.

I am on the brink of trying myself but my first step was to remove that nasty eBay app (which I use quite a lot) that causes huge amounts of Wakelocks for me.

So far in 6h 18m I've only had 44m of AlarmManager wakelocks which is either a significant improvement or a coincidence.
[HTC Sensation] Craphead:
Just realized it did even more than just not work. My play store just didnt work even more, even after reactivating all the services i had disabled. had to restore from nandroid backup. So i guess these instructions should be removed from the FAQ.
[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
No. Its not getting removed because its still perfectly valid information. Im using the gsf alterations right now on the latest build and it works fine.

The gsf runs independently of the rom so the version doesnt matter.

Just because it doesnt work for you doesnt mean it doesnt work. Something could be different about your set up.

---------- Post added at 10:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:52 PM ----------

Your conclusion is wrong. There is no possible way that disabling services causes more wakelocks. Thats like saying more lights causes extra darkness.
[HTC Sensation] Craphead:
What do you mean, "no possible way", it's what ****in DID happen. No matter what you think is possible or not. I disabled all the mentioned services (at least the ones that were there) and thats when the REAL battery drain began because the device just didnt go to sleep at all anymore. PLUS the play store did not work any more. And if you say the gsf runs independantly from the version then a) how should my setup be different from others and b) why are not even all services mentioned in the FAQ there to disable? For example "talk.talkprovider" just doesnt exist along with a few others which i cant recall right now. Also all the services that have "checkin" at the beginning just won't stay disabled, they re-enable themselves immediately after.
[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
If Play store isnt working then you disabled something you disabled more than you were supposed to and created different problems.

I just got the latest update of the gsf yesterday when I updated gmail, and talk.talkprovider is absolutely in it. I checked just now to be certain.

So the gsf alterations work perfectly as described on the latest build with the latest gapp updates.

If you cant get the mod to work, then dont use it.

Dont get mad at me because you cant get it set up properly. Many other people can set it up properly, so the mod isnt the problem. And its not going to be taken out of the thread because you cant figure out how to apply it.

This is like any thread on rooting, where some rookie cant figure out how to root his phone and claims the directions are wrong, even though a thousand other people rooted just fine with those directions.

Here's a little constructive criticism for you. Had you come here and said "I can't get this to work. Please help me figure it out. I'm running X version of CM10 with X version of GApps. Here's exactly what happens when I try the method's outlined." Then we could help you figure out what exactly went wrong. Instead you came in here barking that it doesn't work at all because you can't make it work, as if you are infallible. There's nothing we can go on to help you figure it out. And your attitude makes us not particularly care to try.
[HTC Sensation] Craphead:
Constructive critism, eh? Okay here is some for you then. Instead of saying stuff like "it is in no way possible" at something that clearly IS possible (as it DID happen) you could have also said something like "well, that interesting because..." or "are you sure you have done everything correctly" etc. So much for barking and infallibility! Dont get all butthurt because someone dares to critizise your work. And btw i didnt get mad because of the mod not working but because of your snotty know-it-all-reply.

I didnt ask for your help all i did was to report back that the given instructions didnt work and what happened instead. I have the same ROM and the same latest Gapps as everyone else so how would my "setup" be to blame?

And even more by the way i did NOT disable any services i wasnt supposed to, i can read properly and i double and triple checked what to disable and what not since i am aware that things can go badly wrong when tinkering around with such modifications carelessly.
[HTC Sensation] :
Just to say I haven't done the GSF stuff yet but I did uninstall eBay and my Wakelocks have dropped dramatically.

One other thing, I'm using GAPPS 20121011, guess that's not too much of a problem? I've also not installed the 4.2 Transformation Pack yet (but have the new Gmail)
[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
That ebay app is a pain. It really takes liberties with the phone's resources. There is a recent post somewhere in one of the cm10 threads about how to keep it on a leash so to speak. You contain its self starting and persistent wakelocks apparently but it takes some doing.

Sorry, I dont recall which of the cm10 threads I read this in. But it was in the last 2 or 3 days so it should be easy to find.

Hopefully it works for you. Personally I just learned to deal with not using ebay from my phone like in "the old days"
[HTC Sensation] slovdahl:
I'm coming from HTC stock ROM and I've noticed the scroll/flick speed is different in bruce's CM 10 ROM. Now I have to move my finger much longer across the screen to scroll up/down or left/right. Is it possible to tweak this? This is not about lag or something like that.
[HTC Sensation] tobitege:
That issue iirc is mostly due to how the default launcher behaves. You may try any other launcher available on Play store to see the differences.

The Kang thread has plenty of related posts, just search in it for launcher I guess.

Some have also mentioned specific build.prop changes, but I can't recall them from the top of my head.
[HTC Sensation] slovdahl:
Changed to Apex launcher, but no difference.
[HTC Sensation] Moh Kohn:
I'd you want the scrolling to be like it was on sense then you better reflash a sense ROM, this will never act or feel the same.

[HTC Sensation] tobitege:
I'm using Apex (Pro) and I have no real issue with flinging through long lists, like app drawer list.
[HTC Sensation] Moh Kohn:
I don't have a problem either, some people seem obsessed to have everything feel like the sense ROM they have just changed from.

JB 4.1.2
[HTC Sensation] slovdahl:
It's not like I'm obsessed by it, I just noticed the difference. As CM has a reputation of being highly configurable I thought I could ask if it's possible to change with some easy tweak or so.
[HTC Sensation] nine times:
Has anyone else had a problem with sound not working after making/receiving a phone call? After I get a call all sounds stop working until I reboot. I'm running the latest build from Dec 21.

Edit: Fixed it by flashing the 3.33 universal firmware.

Wifi issues...

Im a bit of a noob at this so please excuse any annoyances I will probably cause!

I am loving the ROM, Stated using it as I wanted some jellybean experience, but in the last 3 or 4 updates I have been unable to switch on wifi, I have searched and found a few other people with the same problem, a message saying "switching on wifi" but no joy.

I have just flashed the latest version, after a full wipe and with no results.

Cheers for any advice...
[HTC Sensation] iamabot:
A couple of questions.

Anyone know what the OpenSensation.zip files are? Are those development related? Second, I don't want an OC'd kernel, should I flash one of the non-OC'd kernels, or just reset the frequency manually and leave the kernel alone?
[HTC Sensation] Moh Kohn:
Opensensation is a difference Rom, you don't need to flash a kernel the one with the room is fine.

Thanks again for anyone who can help!
[HTC Sensation] Harty747:
Well that has solved it! Sorry if that was a silly issue but thanks for being nice enough not to call me an idiot! I'm new here but its seems like fun all this phone programming business. XDA has another fan and I will be hanging about more often!

Cheers!
[HTC Sensation] ziddey:
Hey tobitege, this may be worth updating in the original post:

The issue arose from differing opinions as to who owns the contact information. ICS and beyond no longer allow restricted contacts by default.

I haven't been successful in modifying ContactsProvider.apk myself for some reason, but gave vggroup227's version a shot and it works just fine with Bruce's CM10: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1948721

Replace the apk, reset permissions, delete /data/data/com.android.provider.contacts/databases/contacts2.db, and reboot. If you use local contacts for some strange reason, they will be deleted. Instead, you can manually add the is_restricted field to the database:

sqlite3 /data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/databases/contacts2.db
'ALTER TABLE raw_contacts ADD COLUMN is_restricted VARCHAR';
[HTC Sensation] TheWall-[ITA]:
Hi,

today I found out that my camera was crashing while taking photos with flash: hard reboot! But I remembered that it was working in the beginning.

So I deleted gallery app data and it started again to work. Maybe you want to add this to the FAQ list.

Hope this is helpful :D

MMS Issue

For the life of me, I cannot figure out why I can't send picture MMS messages on this ROM. I've checked all of the APN settings for T-mobile, and everything looks fine but I can't send a picture. Can someone please give me some guidance? I have searched, and can't fix this issue. Any suggestions?

Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
What happens when you try?

Can you receive MMS?
[HTC Sensation] Daveheelga:
I can receive picture MMS and regular MMS. Only problem I have is trying to send pictures. I can send regular MMS/text messages. Pictures will not go out. When I try to send a pic, it will just sit there and say "sending" but never send.

SMS Quick Reply...

Hello! I have searched high and low to find somebody with the same issue, but I could not track any previous incidences. Upon first installing the ROM, the options for the quick reply/read/call under a new SMS in the notification bar were present, however I recently noticed that they are no longer there. I do not remember changing any preferences, and after a full wipe and re-installation, they are still not present. I was wondering how I may be able to get them back!?
[HTC Sensation] TheWall-[ITA]:
Really strange, I have them and they're working without any problem. Just a stupid question: are you using the default SMS app, right?

One more thing: which build are you using?
[HTC Sensation] seb_labine:
Is there a sim contact import fix?
[HTC Sensation] kamporter:
I am using the newest build as far as I know (2013.01.09) and yeah, the default messaging app. The only thing I had done that may have messed with it is installed the 4.2 transformation pack, but as said above, I wiped and formatted everything and installed again, to no avail. Because I had yet to try any other ROMS, for the sake of experimentation, I tried MIUI and ParanoidAndroid. Suffice it to say, I'm back on CM10, lo and behold, the options are working again. A very bizarre occurrence, and I am left wondering what not to do, as I am enthralled with the option.
[HTC Sensation] TheWall-[ITA]:
Well, I'm happy you solved the problem ;)

Just to share my opinion... When I use a ROM, I don't install transformation packs, mods, undervolt scripts, applications to push device volume up, etc... This way the ROM stability is usually better and I'm 90% sure that bugs are ROM-related.

Again, I'm not judging you, it's general. Just sharing an opinion :)
[HTC Sensation] Daveheelga:
I'm still having issues with sending picture MMS on this ROM. I've created separate APNs and still can't send pictures. Any other suggestions? Does anyone have a link to the stock messaging app? I could try to re-install and see if that works.
[HTC Sensation] Ebif_GSM:
thanks for you

thanks for you :good:
