when i made cm9

i didnt no anything about code or compiling, nothing, that was a year ago and im still quite inexperinced,

i really do urge people to read up on this subject. :)
[HTC Sensation XL] armageddon6:
[MENTION=2402012]onejay09[/MENTION], can you point me in the right direction to get started please? I know there is so much info out there it is daunting and I am not sure where to start. Again, sorry if I was one of those pains. I never meant to be and never meant to pass you off.
[HTC Sensation XL] Ricky Divjakovski:
have a kitkat bro, ive seen how people act on neatrom and temaseks CM builds, noone bothers to post unless theres an update coming out or to complain, the rest that appreciate the rom dont bother to show any gratitude..

dont worry mate this is a great!
[HTC Sensation XL] Hasan.Z:
Hey it's up to him to, and a lot of people here talk about their issues to grew up the ROM to it's perfection so don't take it as a complaining. I love [MENTION=5105831]ricky310711[/MENTION] 's comment BTW, HAVE A KK BRO.

i'm sorry to say that i just tested :

market, search for "screen recoder"

first thing poping is "SCR Screen Recorder Free *root" that i installed ant tested immediatly

a video file is created , and the quality is good

maybe the screen recoder software you used was not good ?

P.S the spam preventing system for new user is a real pain ...
[HTC Sensation XL] onejay09:
yeah screen record probably wont ever work, for the simple fact that we use old outdated hardware that the code is not implemented for, were lucky to have the display work in 4.4,

so the reasons why:

gralloc:

the memory allocation lib in android, it controls the allocation of memory from the kernel, its hacked to work on newer android.

surfaceflinger:

theres two parts the binary in system/bin and the library in system/lib this is also using the old framebuffer_natve_window method off allocating the window that displays on the screen, and not the new AnativeWindow that we could use with the new adreno drivers if we used ion.

so as our phones chipset "7x30" turns into a legacy chipset over time, we'll no longer get support as newer better methods of code deprecate ours

and believe me "7x30" wasnt popular in the first place.

8x60 is by far the ruler here, the htc sensation uses 8x,

given the date our phone was released after the htc sensation, you would have thought that htc use a newer if not the same chipset as the sensation,

but htc decided to save money and use the old 7x30 chipset,

they saved even more money when they released it with an old mddi panel "screen"

so please believe me that this phone is a mess to work with

its terrible in fact, you ask anyone, this device just hasnt got anything over the sensation, i thought it would have been much better given the "XL" status.

thats the truth. this phone is a nightmare, thats why all the devs left it.

its got the worst parts of everything bad,

mddi display = BAD

really poor kernel work by htc = BAD

7x30 = considering its release date and price. it should have been better than 7x30!

its using a weird mix of timpani+marimba codec in the kernel = no other device uses this type of setup its either one or the other

the battery controller is a load of **** = you think its the rom that gives strange battery readings? wrong

hell even the "original ramdisk" by htc! had stuff in it that shouldnt have been there!

just my two cents on this device

im just thinking you should know how bad it really is
[HTC Sensation XL] Ricky Divjakovski:
your right, so slow, so disapointing that its even got the "XL" title..

such big possibillities but due to htc's limitations and hardware nothing to offer, even some newer HTC devices carry horrible support for.. anything..? the only devices i consider good by HTC would be the HD2 and the HTC one(amazing)

but yeah onejay if your interested on continuing development let me know!

the basics on making android roms

before you even think about it you should have atleast a years worth of experience with linux.

just look at the info in the link provided.

its not simple you have been warned! lol

basic guide on compiling android

now this is how i started, not this guide inparticular but, its all the same anywho..

i learned most of the stuff by googling errors that arose from the compiler.

from there i started to understand what to do to fix the problems etc.

Update to V14

hello guys

once you've solved the problem with the file of v14 which seems to be broken, to install the new version I have to do all the wipe? Now I have the v13 and would like to know if with the new version I have to re-install all the updates of the app.

I do not know if someone already wrote it but I found a problem in v13 with video recording. Holding the phone in an upright position the recorded video is corrupted and can not see anything. With the phone in a horizontal position instead everything is ok.

Onejay your ROM is just great, thanks for all the time and energy you spend in this work for all of us.
[HTC Sensation XL] onejay09:
I'll reupload in a minute, using androidfilehost so still getting used to it ;)
[HTC Sensation XL] Ricky Divjakovski:
want the /data/app backup script before you do?

just mount /data

extract file, set permissions, and run program!
[HTC Sensation XL] donalbar:
i suggest you to do all the wipe like in the first post order by onejay i think that way is more safety..i think ;)

and about the vid recording just testing v13 and have no problem at all. im holding the phone just like the you told. in an upright positition..or any position i've nothing error found or corrupted video recording. video is ok mate. try to reboot your device maybe and try again mate :)

just a noobie trying to help after all:D

So I have to wipe data and lost all my apps :crying:

2 days ago it took me hours to reinstall all the apps from google backup

thanks for reply
[HTC Sensation XL] jjaagg:
If you want to perform test properly is always better to make a wipe.

You will not loose your apps if you do not install new version and do not make a wipe - your choice.

Make a backup first, then make a wipe and install new rom. If new rom will satisfy you after test, then install your apps again.

Simple.
[HTC Sensation XL] Ricky Divjakovski:
i just sent onejay some files that will backup your apps and restore automatically after installation leaving onejay with the abillity to wipe /data to avoid bugs!

[HTC Sensation XL] adriano_val:
Thanks jjaagg,

Backup advise me to do it directly from the recovery or using titanium backup?

Right now it is locked the camera application, will not restart. I tried to restart the phone but nothing does not work anymore.

I thought I read that it is a known bug, right? Solution?

Thanks in advance!
[HTC Sensation XL] Ricky Divjakovski:
that wont flash, and its not archived incorrectly, its corrupt so onejay is uploading!

Exchange Service Don´t work

Hi OneJay,

just installed V14 after waiting a while - exchange service still don´t work for me. :crying:

I need to sync my mails via exchange...

Any Ideas?

The rest of the rom is great - so i´d really like to use it on my phone :cowboy:

Thanks,

SeppC
[HTC Sensation XL] alexfadhili2:
Just try downloading a exchange mailing app from the playstore
[HTC Sensation XL] Hasan.Z:
Still Downloading... Thanks [MENTION=2402012]onejay09[/MENTION]

If anyone needs a AIO backup app use Titanium Backup Pro
[HTC Sensation XL] ak17:
Who cares!!!

This is the best ROM for sensation XL.

Sure this ROM has bugs but hey to hell with bug mate!! I am enjoying my KITKAT.

and it TASTE so GOOOODDD..:angel:

Installed v14, gliding smoothly.

Thank you ONEJAY for this gift.
[HTC Sensation XL] seppc:
exchange

Hi Alexfadhili2,

my exchange issue is about the exchange service - not the app.

Downloading another APP does not work unfortunately (tested in V9).

Any other ideas?

Thanks!
[HTC Sensation XL] sorhe:
shut down

I have a problem that phone shuts down by itself after installing v14, then I have to remove the battery and start it again... Is this known problem or what could it be?

Otherwise - great ROM! :)
[HTC Sensation XL] adriano_val:
guys I tried to install the V14 without doing the wipe data and everything seems to work great! Of course, before I had the V13.

Onejay I can only congratulate you, you did a wonderful job, you're a monster!

I hope with all my heart that, unlike many other developers, you will continue to support this device that now with this ROM has nothing to envy to the latest smartphones on the market.
[HTC Sensation XL] Hasan.Z:
Me too, then I logged into Play without any problems or even crash. Phone restarts its self two times after that it's stable. Thanks man [MENTION=2402012]onejay09[/MENTION] :)
[HTC Sensation XL] adriano_val:
for me no reboot, just the browser application is stopped at the first access, but from the second access no problem, everything works great :good:
[HTC Sensation XL] donalbar:
i think the rom is way much better,,congrate to [MENTION=2402012]onejay09[/MENTION]!:good:
[HTC Sensation XL] genesyler:
to begin with, can you give us your hboot version , and also your recovery name and version?
[HTC Sensation XL] onejay09:
ok so stating the obvious, if your going to flash a new Rom without clearing dalvik cache, and data, then you will have issues with some things, reboots etc

so you should know that our dalvik cache lives in /data partition and no matter how many times you clear dalvik cache in recovery it wont actually clear dalvik cache

if you however cleared /Data in recovery then your fine.

don't tell me about reboots unless you've followed procedure please :)

eg: wiped properly.

so guys im working on polishing this rom and making it smooth, lots of tweaks to the framework, and scrollcache tweaks.

the next release should be superrrrr smoooothe! :)
[HTC Sensation XL] jjaagg:
Smoother? Well, it is smooth enough :)

I red that mms is a common cm11problem. How do you recogn Onejay. Will it be fixed in future?

I'm going to switch to this Rom anyway if I find some time to sort out all apps. Thanks again for great Rom mate.
[HTC Sensation XL] Hasan.Z:
What do you mean by SMOOTH guys? Can anyone give me an exact declaration?
[HTC Sensation XL] Ricky Divjakovski:
i found something in the CM11 framework that removes the long waiting time for reboot ;)

ill talk to you abit later!
[HTC Sensation XL] adriano_val:
Hi Onejay,

before flashing the ROM I cleaned the cache and davilk and I formatted the system. I left only the data and I must say that I find no problem. The ROM is spectacular, super smooth and I have no bugs. For me it is perfect!

If you think it can be made even more smooth as you do not understand, the only way would be to read minds and open apps before you touch the screen.:D

Well done mate. thanks for everything.
[HTC Sensation XL] Hasan.Z:
It's not too long time to boot, but if you can reduce it it will be gr8 :laugh:
[HTC Sensation XL] sorhe:
Yes of course, sorry i haven´t gave it right away

hboot 1.28

recovery CWM 5.5.0.4

have done:

-wipe data/factory reset

-wipe cache partition

-format /cache

-format /data

-format /system

-wipe dalvik cache

-wipe battery stats

Phone turned off 3-4 times by itself , and I had to remove battery to turn it on,after that everything seems OK...
[HTC Sensation XL] :
V14 is WOW !
[HTC Sensation XL] JustPlayingHard:
Omg
[HTC Sensation XL] onejay09:
[MENTION=2490573]sorhe[/MENTION], I reccomend wiping /system also.

If you continue to have issues then wipe everything please
[HTC Sensation XL] sorhe:
I did format /system , is there any other wipe? And another thing-I've noticed that info about memory shows only 577MB!? Shouldn't it be 768MB?
[HTC Sensation XL] :
For new guys to this ROM or custom ROMs

To install this ROM probably with keeping your data (apps) etc

Do catch partition wipe

Do Dalvik catch wipe

And format system from mounts and storage in recovery mode ok

Then flash this ROM and enjoy :P
[HTC Sensation XL] g.andy:
In this moment i have v13. For v14 You advice Wipe data, Wipe cache, Wipe dalvik cache, format system, format data and than flash Rom?

Inviato dal mio HTC One con Tapatalk 4
[HTC Sensation XL] adriano_val:
if you want to keep your apps you can not delete the data, do a wipe cache, wipe davilk, format system and enjoy, you should have no problems, at least I have not had so far.
[HTC Sensation XL] g.andy:
Ok, i will try

[HTC Sensation XL] :
Ok here's what happened with me in V15 [MENTION=2402012]onejay09[/MENTION]

I flashed this ROM without wiping data

The ROM booted successfully but after 2 minutes everything was crashing

I rebooted the system and it worked but this time it reboot by itself after 1 or 2 minutes

Something is not okay with V15 I think

Take your time finding out about what causing this cuz v14 is perfect

But I'll try doing a clean flash tomorrow and see if this gonna happen again
[HTC Sensation XL] adriano_val:
I also had some reboots

I keep it in the test a little bit more if they continue reboots back to v14 which was perfect.

I also did not wipe data, but I did the same between v13 and v14 without finding any problems.

MVIRUS911 please let me know if a clean install solve those problems
[HTC Sensation XL] :
Well I don't know if clean flash will work actually but I'll try it tomorrow cuz today I don't have the mood bro
[HTC Sensation XL] Sadronis:
I have done it without wiping the data but i dont have any reboot issue. So i think your problems are because of not wiping the data guys. You should wipe your data i guess
[HTC Sensation XL] adriano_val:
I had to reinstall the V14 because the apps were crashing and the phone was restarted constantly. Surely it will be because I miss to wipe data. But with the V14 I'm so good I do not think I will update the version.

What is so better in V15?

Onejay I never tire of saying thank you for your wonderful work!
[HTC Sensation XL] :
Read the change long

There's amazing changes in v15 :D
[HTC Sensation XL] adriano_val:
I'm not very experienced so many of the things that are written do not understand unfortunately.

in practical terms how to translate? improvements in performance? longer battery life? the V14 satisfies me in all, I find it extremely smooth and I have virtually no bugs.

Although a small bug I have with the video recording. If I start to record a video holding the phone upright recorded video is unwatchable. He shows me a series of lines and no image, but if I start recording with the phone horizontally and then vertically pace without interrupting the recording is ok. Very very strange, maybe it's a bug that only I have for some hardware problem. Nobody has this problem?
[HTC Sensation XL] onejay09:
Yea I'll look into that mate,

Sorry to say [MENTION=5226338]MVIRUS911[/MENTION]

For me to know if there's unforseen issues I rely on your opinions to say whether there's problems I missed,

So please understand when I say don't report bugs unless you've followed procedure, and if your not up to trying the new release out properly then please refrain from until you are ready to do full wipe

Thanks
[HTC Sensation XL] onejay09:
I'll look into camcorder bug
[HTC Sensation XL] onejay09:
Anybody here who full wiped have any issues?
[HTC Sensation XL] :
OK mate I'll do full wipe now and test it :D
[HTC Sensation XL] onejay09:
[MENTION=5226338]MVIRUS911[/MENTION]

Thanks mate, no pressure though pal!
[HTC Sensation XL] wetxxx:
I try light wipe ;) and full system, data and other wipe and still auto restart n few minute

Maybe its depend from CPU OC ? I use to 1800 mhz.
[HTC Sensation XL] :
I wish if I was wrong but yes its restarting bro :(

Sorry
[HTC Sensation XL] gnscon:
I didn't do the wipe before installing, so I know I'm a useless tester here, but I did have the rebooting. What I did notice though was that when it was usable the delay between pushing the home button and the home launcher screen come up had disappeared, so that's very positive. Good stuff Onejay :o

I was able to install v14 back over the top and things went back to normal.

On a different note, and I don't know if anyone else has experienced this, but I sometimes have issues with incoming calls. The screen will light up and ring but I can't swipe across to answer. If, whilst the phone is still ringing, I push the power button to turn the screen off and then back on it will allow me to swipe and answer the call. Not such an issue if your power button works, but I went and tried to do some soldering to fix it and it turns out I suck at soldering. :crying:
[HTC Sensation XL] Hasan.Z:
After clean installing V15 for about 5 times I can say it's not stable at all. Too many restarts. But it has many new features. Wish if they could be added into v14 because I reverted back to Stable V14. Camcorder some times work some times lags sometimes record nothing watchable.
[HTC Sensation XL] Sadronis:
It's really interesting 'cause i installed it without wiping data, i just wiped dalvik and cache and i dont have any reboots while who done full wipe experiences reboots...
[HTC Sensation XL] Hasan.Z:
[MENTION=2402012]onejay09[/MENTION] is there a way to debug and define where is the problem, if i can help plz point me to a thread to read and debug for this gr8 ROM.

ROM UPLOADED
[HTC Sensation XL] gnscon:
Only been running it for about 30mins but looks good so far. First thing I noticed is that I suddenly received an MMS message that had been sent 2 days ago. So if MMS wasn't working on v14, it is on v16.

Also pressing home button goes straight back to home screen the delay is gone. That's quite good. Although I don't know if it's just me but holding the home button doesn't bring up the recent app list. Animated gifs still not working but I understand that's down the list of priority.

Overall it's got a nice feel. Quite snappy and flicking between screens is responsive. Thanks Onejay.
