Which build?

OpenPDroid or the normal version?

Do not dirty flash the latest release builds. You'll need to format all partitions first. Do not dirty flash OpenPDroid over the normal builds.

I'm on the normal release and I don't have any problems with it. Launcher works like it was meant to.

I haven't tested the OpenPDroid builds but yes, I am expecting problems.

Try re-installing the launcher:

- Download another launcher from the Play Store.

- Use a File Manager to delete ApexLauncher.apk from /system/app/

- Download Apex from Play Store and delete the other launcher. OR. Carry on using the other launcher.

A request is a request. I always believed that being kind and trying to compromise is better than arguing over what's best.

Saves us reading hundreds of posts on why 'A' should be used instead of 'B', because at some point someone does bring it up.

And besides, having the Slim logo on the handle doesn't annoy me. I just don't want to use the Slim team's version.
[HTC Sensation] MidnightDevil:
Been a bit busy, so only now I'm clean flashing the latest build. Will see how it goes.
[HTC Sensation] henrik.dk:
I am probably among the one who request the openpdroid.

But I played with it in the previous, the openpdroid interface is

not that polished. At least, not as good as that from miui ROM.

I might just go for you normal version as it is probably more stable.

thanks.

Sorry new to Slimbean!

I wanted to add VoiceDialer. Noticed they have addons and whatnot at Slimroms.net. Can I download and flash those from that site? Also how do I know what version of Slimbean I am on with this ROM? Current Slimbean is build 5.x. Just want to make sure I'm grabbing the correct files.

Thanks! So far liking this ROM very much! It has the feel and stability of AOSP with the customizing of an AOKP which is what I was looking for. If the dev keeps up with it, I might've found my new daily! :D
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
You can flash the addons from the slim website. I can't guarantee they work though.

Current build is 5.5. (Latest) The ROM is always kept up to date.
[HTC Sensation] 69gm:
Appreciate it DennisBold! I'll do the usual backup and flash! I'll report back in case other users are interested...:laugh:

Panoramic Camera needs to be added. Feel free to download a Camera application from the Play Store as they should have a panoramic feature.

It's OK. If it happens again, try to get a logcat.

I have 1 more problem, but I can't find a way to reproduce it. I use SwiftKey but sometimes the handy switch back to the android keyboard. After this I changed keyboard settings again but this doesn't stay stable. I had this bug min 3 or 4 times after installation yesterday.

[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
Make sure SwiftKey is installed on internal (phone) memory and not on your SDCard.

If you are a 100% sure you want to use SwiftKey, then rename 'LatinIME.apk' to 'LatinIME.old'. Then reboot. That should force SwiftKey to be the only keyboard available.
[HTC Sensation] Togijak:
You are right, SwiftKey was installed on sd card. I just changed it (and at this moment there was the next reboot). That's anyway

Try a clean install, and try not to restore anything using Titanium Backup. As I fear the restoration data is causing issues.

Use the phone for a day, and see if there's any problems. If you have the same problems, then I'll do everything I can to repair it.

Ahh, thanks. No wonder I couldn't find it. Did you remove it? I thought I read some posts not too long ago about panorama as a feature in thie ROM and how it was there but you were looking to improve it? Or was I just smokin' funny cigarettes? LOL!

Anyhoo, do you happen to know what camera app works best with your ROM in your experience? Will you be adding panorama or is that a Slimbean call?

Thanks for your help!
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
Sorry. I type half asleep sometimes and I skim over things where I should be paying attention.

The Camera does have panorama, although the size is dreadful at best. Open the Camera application, click on the camera icon (should be left of the shutter button when held horizontally). The panorama icon is next to the video icon.

HD Panorama from the Play Store does the job and allows higher frame rates (with the exception that higher the res, the less frames you can take). I think there might be a memory problem allowing higher frame resolutions for panorama but I don't have enough to go on.
[HTC Sensation] iverson3-1:
I have huge issues with ram. Sometimes it gets down to like 65mb which makes my phone super slow and laggy until I kill all the apps. How do I keep it from getting down that low. Also I'm using greenify.

"I wanna be the apex of predators in my backyard"

Joe Rogan
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
I've honestly never had a problem with RAM. I've been running the release continuously for two days, and I've still got 171MB free. Play Music, XDA Developer app, Google+ and so on are constantly running.

Are you using an application killer or task manager of some sort? (Not greenify, I've tested it once and all seemed fine).
[HTC Sensation] iverson3-1:
I just started using the task manager that comes with the kernel tuner app to see what could be the cause of this & to kill apps but I never had to use it before having this issue.

I tried changing the memory management to make it more aggressive at killing apps which made it a Lil better along with setting my max background process limit to 4 which seems to at least makes the phone usable. But I never had to do any of this on any other rom.

"I wanna be the apex of predators in my backyard"

Joe Rogan
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
It's surprising to say the least, since I'm using the exact same ROM (haven't changed kernel etc.) with no issues.

If you flashed a kernel, which one? If you dirty flashed, try a clean flash. And I mean clean. No restoring application data -it can wreck havoc sometimes.

Can you also provide a logcat?
[HTC Sensation] iverson3-1:
This is the second time I flashed the rom I didn't know what the problem was the first time so I just re downloaded and flashed the rom again and did a full wipe. I'm also using stock kernel. Idk how to do a logcat once I figure out I will post.

"I wanna be the apex of predators in my backyard"

Joe Rogan
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
That is really strange; did you flash a google apps package or anything else with the ROM?
[HTC Sensation] iverson3-1:
I just flashed gapps.

"I wanna be the apex of predators in my backyard"

Joe Rogan
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
OK. The ROM can be volatile without Google apps.

I recommend flashing it straight after the ROM, as it lessens the chances of anything weird happening.

Keep me posted, and let me know if it works out?
[HTC Sensation] iverson3-1:
I meant to say I only flashed gapps. I flashed it right after I flashed the rom.

"I wanna be the apex of predators in my backyard"

Joe Rogan
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
Go into Settings > Apps > Running

Tell me the amount of free RAM listed there.

Any changes to the kernel? Undervolt or over-clock?

Also, which version of the ROM are you running? OpenPDroid build or the standard non-openpdroid build?
[HTC Sensation] iverson3-1:
121 I haven't changed the kernel at all or done any UV everything is stock. I'm on the non OpenPDroid build. But the first time I flashed the rom I was on the OpenPDroid build I thought it was something wrong with it so I switch to the non OpenPDroid build but have the same issues.

"I wanna be the apex of predators in my backyard"

Joe Rogan
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
OK. That's a good enough amount of free RAM.

Here's what I want you to do so we can rule out any setup lag. Wipe all partitions and flash again along with the standard Google apps.

Complete the setup wizard and log into your Google account. Leave the phone for thirty minutes to an hour to make sure it's setup right. It'll lag heavily during that time as apps from the play store are installed and your settings from Google restored. After that reboot once and update any applications that need manual updates. Then reboot once more.

The phone should be ready to use. If you want to kill an application, hold down the home button until you get to the recent apps list. Swipe the application you don't want away. The phone will kill the application for you.

My Sensation reboots at random intervals during the initial setup of the device after flashing this ROM...do you have any crazy overclock or undervolts on the kernel? I can't keep the device running long enough to get a logcat...:eek:

EDIT: I managed to peek inside the kernel init.d long enough to determine that the settings are the same for what the CM10.1 kernel is set to, I don't understand why it's acting like this. Of course, it locked up and rebooted seconds after I opened it...device runs for maybe two-three minutes then reboots. I might try flashing a different kernel I guess? This ROM is lightning fast for the little time I have been able to use it though!
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
There's a -50 undervolt, as Albinoman's kernel had a higher voltage than some other kernels.

Using adb in recovery, with /system mounted.

Browse to /system/etc/init.d/ and remove the 9Xuv file. X is some random number.

Are you flashing anything with the ROM? That seems to be the main cause of issues with my phone. If something disagrees it's hard to track it down.
[HTC Sensation] iverson3-1:
I just reflashed like you said. This time I used gapps-jb instead of slimgapps.. Could that have been the problem? Seems to be working pretty good so far won't know for sure until I use it more.

"I wanna be the apex of predators in my backyard"

Joe Rogan
[HTC Sensation] Azothyran:
Ah, undervolt! Yep, my phone can't handle any undervolt at all. Albinoman's kernel was set to higher voltages though? I'll remove that file and that should fix my problem. Thanks for the help! :)
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
I'll work with TestUser to fix that if it turns out that his slim google apps package is causing problems.

Thanks!

That's a shame. It's slightly higher, but the -50UV is pretty stable. I'll remove it in the next build.

What is a problem exactly ? Use Kernel Tuner and set the OOM preset 512 aggressive. I tried my SlimGapps package not only on one phone, not only on one build of SlimBean ROM and NEVER causing any problems. Something must be wrong but I can't see nothing special to do in Gapps package except 2 scripts in etc directory which I forgot remove. I'll do on next update. And about rest of Gapps...I can make full up2date gapps package, but what a point flashing everything and using only some of apps ? Everyone can download and install extra apps from market if needed. I support "slim" idea, so my package is as slim as possible. Another thing...Google Talk; I really don't like new Google app Hangouts, because I need clear easy communicator with only my friends on my contact list, not all my contacts or people which I may know as on facebook ! of course I can replace original GTalk by Hangouts as Google proposed but...this is only one way path. You can't replace Hangouts if it is installed by default, but if you have Talk, always you can upgrade to Hangouts, therefore in my slim package I leave Talk as default and everybody can decide upgrade or not. Now fixed SlimGapps 4.2.2 build 5.x. Dennis please update your links.
[HTC Sensation] 69gm:
Hi testuser and DennisBold,

Still kinda new to Slimbean stuff. For these Gapps, do I just dirty flash them? I usually wipe cache/dalvik anyway. Anything else?

Oh and is 512 Aggressive the recommended OOM settings for this ROM? I've been using 512 Balanced.

Thanks!!!
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
Thanks. I do have a few things to fix but the ROM looks like it should function fine by that logcat. If you run into errors, try the normal Slimbean.

I know about this and I'm sorry. I'll try to fix this, but for now you may need to look into editing your build.prop file. Since this is a general Android 4.2.2 bug there's not much I can do to help until I figure it out.

Take a deep breath and breath.

I'm not saying the problem was your Google apps package. It's one of many variables. I still have to check things and attempt to reproduce the problem.

On the hangouts discussion, I suggest you leave talk in the package too. If anyone wants to update they can do so using the play store.

I will update the links in the morning as I'm just replying for now.

Dirty flash. I've never clean flashed a Google apps package unless I have to, or I've just installed a new ROM.

I've been using the stock OOM settings. The OOM setting is a personal choice, depending on the amount of free RAM you want. I highly recommend playing with the settings until you find something that works for you.

[HTC Sensation] testuser0072:
Hehe, Yeah...Dennis your support in this thread is indeed legendary :) I know that I quoted you, however my answer applies to statement of iverson3-1 which have problem with small amount of free RAM. I think that every settings is a personal choice and always should be. Default preset always is good for author of this preset, not necessarily for all, so...if anybody want more free RAM - please do it by yourself - you can, because android gives us the opportunity to choose...

I wrote about it few posts ago, but I know that is hard to read whole thread for finding one interesting thing. Anyway I am pretty sure that our sensations are the same but not identical ! Even the same model can be a bit different and manufacturer don't must report about it, because on default factory rom and settings all of those devices working good. People have problems when they use other than default configurations, because some of devices accept changes, some not - UNDERVOLTING is very good example. Most of random reboots are caused by undervolting, so I recommend delete UV script from /etc/init.d/ directory because random reboots are much more annoying than UV benefit. I tried UV many times and unfortunately I can say - don't expect miracle - for real benefit is insignificant.
[HTC Sensation] 69gm:
You are correct. I've actually had some experience with other ROMs on the subject of UV. What I've found is that though we may all have Sensations, every one is slightly different. Some can do things and tolerate things (OC, UV, etc.) better than others. It's sorta the luck of the draw.

Dennis, most of the ROMs I've played with (and in reality the kernels I've tried) allow for changes in UV via Aroma. The reason being there are some Sensations that cannot handle ANY UV. Yes too bad, but there it is. MOST seem to be okay with 25 UV. After that, it's a crap shoot with people experimenting to find their particular sweet spot. Some 50 UV, some even 100. But definitely NOT consistent.

I've also followed quite a lot of debate on the merits of UV. Some swear by it, while others find no real benefit...or at least the measure is so small as to be negligible.

Anyway, unfortunately, if you want a rock solid stable ROM, UV needs to be removed and let the user experiment via kernel to find their particular sweet spot.
[HTC Sensation] Sleepy!:
^ This.

For example, my Sensation handles UV alright, but it can't OC at all.
[HTC Sensation] testuser0072:
Finally I bought chinese clone of Sensation (not really but visually very similar) ZTE V970M with MTK6577 chipset because I use 2 sim cards (I working abroad) and this phone support dual SIM. I flashed modified by me JB ROM and phone looks as my sensation, screen has the same resolution, free memory similar and after disable internal SDCard I have 2.5GB storage for data. Very important thing - battery ! (however is only 1600mAh) fully charged usually lasts much longer even than my 1900mAh Anker battery for Sensation. So guys probably I keep my Sensation but as spare phone, now I start playing with my new toy which giving me really more pleasure without any fighting with UV/OC and random reboots - just working as I want and my subjective impression - this phone working faster than overclocked Sensation. Thanks everybody especially Dennis for amazing ROM, of course I update SlimGapps if there is something new. See you later guys :)
