So, for the people who doesn't have any boot problems with the latest kernels what's the best one to use? The latest one? Should be any difference in performance between r50.5 and r51?
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
What makes you think hardware vsync is broken? Hardware vsync has never been broken in the 3.4 kernel. Look at the vsync module in hwcomposer: https://github.com/sultanxda/androi.../blob/cm-11.0/libhwcomposer/hwc_vsync.cpp#L42

Fb0 is the mipi framebuffer device (fb1 is the dtv framebuffer device). Hwcomposer grabs the vsync timestamp from vsync_event and propagates it to surfaceflinger: https://github.com/sultanxda/androi...blob/cm-11.0/libhwcomposer/hwc_vsync.cpp#L158 (cur_timestamp)

(in newer versions of hwc_vsync, hardware vsync compatibility is determined by the existence of vsync_event)

Boot up the 3.4 kernel, start adb shell, and cat /sys/class/graphics/fb0/vsync_event. Look at the timestamp it gives, and now swipe the screen or pull down the notification bar or something (screen needs to be updated). Now cat /sys/class/graphics/fb0/vsync_event again; the number has changed, and when hardware vsync is enabled in the display HAL, it would have been propagated to surfaceflinger to create a real vsync event.

Oooh, I had the same problem on my phone when mipi probe failed. This could be an easy fix :fingers-crossed:

r51 should be the smoothest.
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
Those of you who are stuck on the HTC logo with r50, r50.5, and r51, please try r51.5 and report back. I think that r51.5 will work :fingers-crossed:
[HTC Sensation] r34c7:
Thanks for the new build but on my device it still refuses to boot...the same way as before: stuck on htc white screen.
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
(╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻

This is proof that I can't debug something without a last_kmsg... Well, at least other parts of the code are working correctly now in r51.5. Volunteers to try and get a last_kmsg, anyone?

I had a strange problem while watching Twitch on the phone. The screen froze but sound was present. I quit the app but now the video is black. Probably fixed with a reboot though.

---------- Post added at 02:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:46 AM ----------

Well no video is working after that freeze. Will try reboot.
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
Could you give me your last_kmsg after you reboot? The ION multimedia heap probably needs to be larger.

Here is a link. Had to do it this way because can't upload with xda app :(

Excuse me, but if I want to install just the core Apps of Gapps, I mean, no Google+, no Street or Youtube.. Just.. the core, nothing which is already on Play Store, what Gapps pack do I have to use? How can I remove those apps from pa-mini-modular Gapps?

What's Launcher3? A free/open source alternative to the stock Launcher?
[HTC Sensation] jon126:
Version 51.5 fixed it for me after I waited like at least an hour waiting for version 51 to finish optimizing apps. Version 50.5 worked however.

Edit: Still optimizing apps....
[HTC Sensation] silverdart:
No

Only r49 boots properly.:(

Formatted and tried to install ROM and PA Gapps and got the same result.
[HTC Sensation] gamer1291:
Same here tried 50,51,51,5 all dont boot stuck at HTC logo.

However v49 kernel works fine.
[HTC Sensation] jon126:
I got stuck optimizing apps for some time but did a battery pull and then rebooted normally and it was fine. Be prepared to wait for at least 30 minutes on first boot though.
[HTC Sensation] zooz11:
Thank you for your efforts :good:

I've noticed that some apps crash when used with this rom for eg. Go keyboard, FreePP etc.

The calendar is not syncing with google and gives a msg : can't contact google servers now.. try again later!

I had a clean installation and I wonder if any of you is having such issues!
[HTC Sensation] diosys:
Thanks for the amazing ROM...

Just wanted to ask if the Gmail scrolling freeze was happening with all or is it just me ??

On the latest kernel 04/01 with ROM of 30/12
[HTC Sensation] LordNerevar:
You can get the core gapps from here.
[HTC Sensation] elol:
need boot.img

anyone can plese give me the boot img,kernal version 51.5...I cant flash the aroma because my phone still s-on but unlock
[HTC Sensation] sudgai:
Use ext4 recovery with enabling smart flash (tool>> enable smart flash).
[HTC Sensation] elol:
its not working...
[HTC Sensation] demanzke:
please keep the smartass governor in the kernel, with default governor configs it is the most fluid when scrolling etc., I prefer it above the rest.
[HTC Sensation] Karam.:
I'm confirming the stuck at htc logo prob
[HTC Sensation] fbf2201:
I had 6 days with about 18 percent left...

But why don't you off the phone if you just leave it on the table? :D
[HTC Sensation] kufciak:
I see some bug with camera fv-5. When I make a foto phone is turning off.
[HTC Sensation] jon126:
how long did u wait?

I suggest around at least 30mins.
[HTC Sensation] lovendsuicide:
Why would someone wait 30min for the phone to boot? The boot time is the same as always was with previous versions... I don't have any problems but with the number of reports the getting stuck at boot seems to be a real problem.
[HTC Sensation] zooster:
Since today I'm getting suddenly sods, I think the phone sleeps but actually it's shut down.

Battery is fine, a new anker at 50% (mv where coherent with this percentage). When I press power button it turns on regularly but I don't have any last_kmsg in proc...
[HTC Sensation] jon126:
I meant first boot btw.
[HTC Sensation] dallashigh:
1- Honestly I wouldn't hold my breath. All props to android1-7 but in my opinion, unless SebastianFM decides to fix it, it will never work. To this day, he is the only dev who has gotten camera to work with ION. Unfortunately for us, he has not shared his methods and his kernel will not work on any ROMs except ones he is involved with.

2- Accelerometer is not working.
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
Accelerometer was working in a build I made on November 13th, so it shouldn't be hard to fix. As for fixing the camera with ION, Arco and Christopher83 (Sebastian and Nikez too) are in a different league from me. Those guys are seasoned programmers who probably have a college education and good experience with either Linux or embedded systems. I'm 16 years old so I haven't had any formal education on programming (or Linux or embedded systems), so my knowledge and my abilities in this field are very limited. There's no way I could contribute something actually useful to what Arco and Christopher83 are doing. Also, I don't know what changes Sebastian made for self-powered USB OTG, nor have I spent a good chunk of time trying to isolate which changes in the board file are responsible for self-powered USB OTG.

I wouldn't hold my breath either :p

There's no way I can get the camera drivers and proprietary libraries to use ION; I was thinking about modifying the display HAL to make it capable of allocating both PMEM and ION buffers so we could have surfaceflinger use ION, and video (SMI, ADSP, etc.) use PMEM, but the display HAL is written in C++ and I don't know any C++ at all. Furthermore, I'm not sure if it will be possible to make libmemalloc use both ION and PMEM at the same time.

If you've seen a logcat while opening the camera app on this ROM, you've probably noticed that the logcat said it couldn't allocate SMI buffers etc. and that it was out of memory. This is because the functions inside libmemalloc that allocate the graphics and video memory buffers use either ION or PMEM (depending on which option it's built with). When libmemalloc is built for PMEM, the functions that allocate memory buffers use PMEM, thus ION heaps fail (hence why installing an ION kernel on a PMEM ROM gives a black screen). The inverse is also true: when libmemalloc is built for ION, the functions that allocate memory buffers use ION, thus PMEM heaps (such as ADSP and SMI, which liboemcamera need) fail.

There's a bit more to it but I've rambled enough :p
[HTC Sensation] willy1521:
Hey Android1..7...I really love your Sensation's ROMs! They are smooth and very fast (but I think you already know that!!!!).

This proto-version look very good, but unfortunately (or luckily) I didn't have any serius problem (like hard reboot) that help you to grow it up.

On the other hand this ROM has not a lot of Cyanogen customizations...that I love in your 10.2 version.

So at the end...I've decided to dowgrade to 10.2, waiting for your next release to try.

Go forward with works on Sensation...you are great :good::good::good:
[HTC Sensation] jorra:
What? Did cyanogen remove something... eh, I think you didn't look hard enough.

[HTC Sensation] willy1521:
Uhm...I can't find customization for rows and columns in homepage...for lockscreen items....for choose WiFi region (WiFi for some routers works only if you change and go back to your region...same problem in 10.2 but in that ROM you can chance region)....and other little things that are pretty to me.

This ROM is very smooth, fast and stable but I prefer 10.2....at the moment.
[HTC Sensation] redback_rsa:
Those features were lost due to 4.4. CM will add it later again when code reaches a more mature status.
[HTC Sensation] willy1521:
I know...in fact I say "waiting for your next release to try".

And i know tha my post were not useful to ROM dev...only an observation...because for me at the moment the ROM works very good, but it has not a lot of customization that i love...yet!
[HTC Sensation] redback_rsa:
Ahh, yes, didn't know you were the same guy :)
[HTC Sensation] Alcatraze:
good rom

Your rom is smooth , good job , android 1234567.

so glad to see a peer did such an awesome job！！！！

Due to the not working camera, sorry bro l have to go back to cm10.

But l really like the smooth graphics, so is it possible for me to use your display libs?

What is your newer libs?

Could l put them into cm10?

Thanks:highfive:
[HTC Sensation] tzarp990:
Downloaded and installed, I dirty flashed over latest cm10.2 only wiping cache and dalvik and so far no reboots only known bugs and does feel more responsive. Awesome work my sensation has another year I guess :)
[HTC Sensation] redback_rsa:
This ROM is ION, previous ROMs are PMEM. So it won't work.
[HTC Sensation] Alcatraze:
Come on , l just use libs , not others.

In Android1234567's cm10.2 with pmem , he also used new libs.

So l think they should work on cm10.
[HTC Sensation] hack4er:
no you cant use these libs ı think these newer libs are created for ION not for PMEM

so if you put these libs simply into cm10 your display wont work will stuck on black screen

best regards :good:
[HTC Sensation] the_brave:
With this ROM from 17.11.2013 did not detect the new Micro Sim Card 128K. And I changed to another ROM.

Says that there are no recorded contacts in the SIM card, and it has many. Can not even be Importing the phone.

post a logcat of what happened to help A1-7 out please
[HTC Sensation] hossny88:
BOOT LOOP

hi, I need someone to help me, I did a fullwipe then I flashed this ROM followed by the GAPPS. everytime I install this ROM I get a boot loop, I don't know if I am the only one have experienced boot loop on this ROM regarding to discussion to this thread, I don't see someone that complains about boot loop. I don't know how to get a logcat while my device is stuck in the boot loop, I have HTC Sensation XE.
[HTC Sensation] Alcatraze:
could l use new libs from his cm10.2?

it is pmem.:cool:
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
The Adreno libs in this ROM are newer than any other ROM, including my CM10.2. These Adreno libs are even newer than the ones in Revelation and ViperS 5.
[HTC Sensation] AkhmenHotep:
Your problem may be one of many things, what I would say is biggest of all, are you S-Off? If not you will need to enable smart flash before you flash the ROM, most other things are small compared to this, how many times does the phone restart in the bit loop, might just be setting up, I know my phone takes about 2 or 3 reboots before it boots to the unlock on most installs
[HTC Sensation] sudgai:
@op, I hope this information should be right!!!!

The old device droid incredible have s5k6a1gx image-sensor. On 04/01 cyanogenmod snapshot release, they port KITKAT rom with s5k3h2yx image-sensor. maybe this help to further development!!!:fingers-crossed:
[HTC Sensation] mvinceti:
S-on?????

After flashed this rom everything is fine,smooth and no FC.

Only problem is when try to install script for mount2ext there is message that tells me that mine phone is S-ON???

The phone is definetly S-OFF.

What to do?

Hi android1234567 bad news :(

With Kernel 51,5 bootscreen stuck again.

I wait for 5 minutes but only see white background with green HTC logo (tried it 3 times)

I flashed Jan4 Release + pa_gapps-modular-mini-4.4.2-20131230 + Sultan-kernel-r51.5-ION-Aroma with Basic Configuration (nothing changed)

after this I did a dalvik and cache wipe.

[HTC Sensation] corumuk:
Okay, looks like i made a boo boo yesterday on my last install attempt and was using the wrong kernel, 50.5 instead of 51.5. My bad.

Tried a clean install today, flashed rom, 51.5 kernel (all default settings apart from enabling s2w) and pa mini modular 20131229. Phone booted fine and went through Initial set up. Have gone in to the settings to tweak stuff and the phone has frozen, requiring a battery pull.

Phone then froze again when navigating to proc folder, another battery pull.

Have checked for a 'last_kmsg' but there isn't one, only a 'kmsg'.

Was then able to restore all apps and tweak settings without further freezes.

Enabled ART, rebooted, stuck on htc logo for about 10 minutes now.
[HTC Sensation] HaYaHa:
Does anyone also have a delay with receiving whatsapp messages? I often receive my whatsapp messages with a delay of 1-15 minutes.

This happens with wifi and mobile network.

How can I solve this?
[HTC Sensation] Sajito:
Everything working perfect here. Do you come from another rom? Did you full wipe?
[HTC Sensation] HaYaHa:
I already use this ROM for a couple of weeks. But before this ROM I used CM10.2 from a1-7. And yes I did a full wipe. I already tried to unistall whatsapp, but nothing has changed. Maybe I need to do a clean install of this ROM again? Could that solve the problem?
[HTC Sensation] Sajito:
You can always try, I don't know what could cause it.
[HTC Sensation] Sensation Freak:
Cause of all the problems here I tried the newest ROM version + PA Gapps + kernel version 51.5 and everything works well. Booting took maybe 5 minutes and I have an AUO display.

Now I want to try, if ART works well :D

Edit: ART works well too...
[HTC Sensation] hexen88:
how many apps u have? and where located?
[HTC Sensation] sanderg:
You are brave :angel: and do you notice any difference in speed with ART enabled?

I reinstalled everything this morning with a full wipe. Reason: I used Titanium Backup to integrate system app updates into the ROM. While moving Google Play Services it seemed to hang (I waited 15 minutes or so) and I rebooted the phone, at that point it couldn't use any Google apps anymore. Flashing Gapps or the Rom did not help.

After flashing the ROM I had to do the following to keep TiB happy:

- change the superuser app to SuperSU (would be nice to include this by default, also Titanium Backup)

- enable USB debugging

And to keep myself happy, I had to enable the development menu and choose to display advanced reboot options for the power menu.

Does this ROM already trim filesystems at boot and vacuum the sqlite databases?
[HTC Sensation] Sensation Freak:
I only tried with the apps, which come with the ROM and Gapps. No other apps installed. I only want to try, if it somehow works.

Not really, no. Also I didn't expect much speed improvement, because android12345 added the new bionic optimations, which are quite (however) faster than ART (regarding to an article I read recently)...
[HTC Sensation] sanderg:
I tried it but Xposed saved me from a bootloop by reverting to Dalvik without saying anything. Of course Xposed is not compatible with ART.
[HTC Sensation] sudgai:
I tried 04/01 build. it boot well on r50 kernel.i have AUO display panel.

i checked on last-kmsg.

Freeze!!!

The ROM freezes everytime I try to install it with no other modifications (clean-flash)!

Every version I have tried has ended up freezing, and after that, it won't boot anymore! I have no modifications intsalled, and I can't attach logcat because the ROM is frozen solid! I have the standard Sensation Z710E!

[HTC Sensation] lovendsuicide:
Just had a freeze, followed by a reboot (happened two times this morning) while using r51, last_kmsg attached. Going back to r50.5 to see if the same happens.
[HTC Sensation] VirtualFred:
This morning and yesterday i'd tried at least 15 attempts always after full wipe (with last EXT4 Tecovery Touch 1.0.0.6)... with many freezes... :p

Before jumping on CM11, i was previously on CM10.2 with some freeze with all last kernel r50/50.5/51 and 51.5... But CM11 04012014 was freezing on HTC boot logo on the second reboot (battery pull off required) even with only stock kernel in ROM (no kernel added, no Gapps, just original r50 without OC from this ROM).

The only way i found to make it works :

- install cm-11-20140104-Sultan-pyramid (without any Gapps), GApps Core 4.4.2 alone and finally kernel r49 (CPU [MENTION=1528666]151[/MENTION]2MHz), and reboot...

- wait for the first boot (no longer as usually)... apply my settings and download lastest apps as usual (optional : i also switch to ART which of course required a longer reboot),

- to use Google Now on left scroll i install GoogleHome.apk extracted from pa_gapps-modular-mini-4.4.2-20131230-signed (in \system\app\)

... Everything appears to be working, no freeze, no halt on HTC logo... for the moment... :D

My Sensation has AUO display :(

Thanks a lot for your great work android1234567 :good:
[HTC Sensation] martix90:
I just had a very weird bug: All Audiooutputs were at least 32x speed. Also Google Voice Search didn't understand any word. It didn't even try to. Just said "speak to the microphone". After a reboot, everything worked fine again. First I thought, it is becaus I deinstalled some system apps (video studio, whisper push, apollo, terminal and voice+... with ART enabled, the space it limited) but because it worked again after reboot maybe it isn't related. I could provide a last_kmsg but I'm not sure if this situation is still in there.

Also I have another question: In the "Silent times" screen: What does it mean, if I check the box? That I want to enable the silent times for this sound (e.g. notifications) or that I want to make an exception from silent hours for this sound? Maybe it is because of a bad translation, but the semantics of checking the box aren't clear at all.View attachment last_kmsg.zip

Bug report and questions

On 4.jan build with kernel 51 with SHARP panel:

2/10 times when waking device either with vol button or power button the capacitative buttons light up - but the screen remains black pressing again wakes the screen and quickly turns it off again.

Experienced a frozen device with screen on where pulling battery was only options (2 times)

ROM not appearing in Goo Managers search for updates - only through manual search

When using the keyboard in apps like Messaging af an other places where there is text input: Using the delete button will make the whole word flicker for a split second when the curser reaches the word

When using inbuilt torch one of the LED is much brighter than the other

Video not working in SnapChat

Autofocus is very bad - it often takes 5 ? shots to get useful autofocus when taking pcs in dark places og closeup.

Any way om having static wallpaper with no wallpaper scroll on the default "launcher3" ?

What is the default setting for MPdecision when manually installing kernel in recovery ?
[HTC Sensation] vclavellmaso:
I've got issues in the lockscreen since I installed last build. If I'm on the lockscreen and open power menu for get and screenshot, the screen gets no responsive, and I have to wait for a while to get it working again. Somebody else with this problem?

Enviado desde mi HTC Sensation CM11 4.4.2
[HTC Sensation] martix90:
Yes, my lockscreen is also sometimes unresponsive. But this was already 3 builds ago, I think. Also it happend in different situations for me. I don't think, it is related to the power menu. I just tested it and in this case, it worked fine.
[HTC Sensation] GALLA_4:
Yup exact same experience here...no kernel beyond 49 plays nice with my senny

At least you still have more than enough exclamation marks in your keyboard storage?

Which recovery are you using? I recommend 4EXT, 1.0.0.6rc1 has specific KitKat/SELinux fixes.
