Does this ROM / Kernel have thermald implemented? My device is getting so hot when using navigation in the car I could bake a steak on it.

I'm trying to flash this on my HTC Sensation XE and getting the following problem on 4EXT recovery:

Format and Mount System. Mount Data..
E:Error in /sdcard/Slim-pyramid-4.4.4.build.7.9-WEEKLY-6387.zip
(Status 0)
Installation aborted.

Any ideas why this is happening? I've wiped the phone already, and also tried formatting the memory card on both PC and on the recovery menus.

I'm on 4EXT v1.0.0.5 RC5
[HTC Sensation] v.konvict:
Update your 4ext
[HTC Sensation] waqypaqy:
I just did that whilst waiting for a reply. Seems to be installing now so hopefully I wont have any trouble :fingers-crossed:

Thanks for replying!:good::good:

governor

Changing the governor to "interactive" (using "No Frills CPU Control") - how do i do this as im having battery drain
[HTC Sensation] WnG88:
Check your governor, it defaults to performance. I saw a huge improvement after changing governor.
[HTC Sensation] bluefender:
where do i do that on the phone, in what app or system setting
[HTC Sensation] WnG88:
Download from store the app called No Frills CPU Control, run it, with root permissions, and select governor. Tick keep on boot and apply.
[HTC Sensation] bluefender:
its showing max freq 1.512ghz min 192mhz

requested says performance, do i just tick apply on boot

and no change anything else
[HTC Sensation] Mile_zdr:
you need to change performance to other , i use ondemand and than tick apply on boot :)
[HTC Sensation] m3mmo:
I already done that(cpu underclocked to 1188 and interactive guvernor)but still the same.I checked for wakelocks but none found.Battery is 6 months old

I literally watch battery drain when screen is on.From 99%-97% in less than 3 min.

Edit: I am just surfing via wifi and in 30min 17% down.
[HTC Sensation] Bastaerd:
Yes, then it will stick after a reboot.
[HTC Sensation] Ch3vr0n:
currently at 1d 19h battery, still 14% left. (using greenpower premium to maximise battery consumption by enabling/disabling mobile/wifi connections when screen goes off/device unlocks...) Better life than i had on sultan but that was a awesome rom as well.

** edit ** just over 2d before i finally had to recharge. Slimkat + greenpower premium = killer combo
[HTC Sensation] WnG88:
Do you have Viber or other such programs installed? Any further details on settings, governors etc would help all.
[HTC Sensation] Ch3vr0n:
Nope don't even know what Viber is. Governor was set to interactive but just changed it to on demand. Basically I have it configured as this.

Screen on: Bluetooth on (goes back off after 1minn if no device connects, easy to quickly toggle it on to have car kit connect)

Screen unlock:

mobile data gets enabled. So even when screen goes on, mobile data does not get enabled. Device HAS to be unlocked. Very handy if u have a limited data plan. WiFi off gets enabled as well

Screen off:

Bluetooth gets shut off after 1min unless a device is connected

Data gets disabled after 1 min.

That way I squeeze every little bit of battery life out of my 2680!! mAmp battery :D

[HTC Sensation] m3mmo:
LOL!2680 mAhThat is why you get so many hours of battery and we have 1520.So stop trolling.You have almost double battery juice!The greenpower app is not the reson you get so much,but the battery itself.You should have said that in the first place.OMG!
[HTC Sensation] m3mmo:
This rom would be perfect only if it has OTG support.I miss this feature from sultans rom.I already tried 2 of his kernels on this ROM,and OTG works but it broke some other stuff like camera.
[HTC Sensation] Bastaerd:
If it had the same physical dimensions as the origonal Sensation battery you got conned.

They simply can not pack more energy in a lithium ion battery then the original. Anker batteries do not have a chip inside them and thus can pack slightly more juice.
[HTC Sensation] m3mmo:
Yep,thats why anker have 1900.
[HTC Sensation] Ch3vr0n:
Doubt the con It's like one of these http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/New-Gold-...rg=20140107083358&rk=2&rkt=10&sd=200625315350 and it works damn wonderfully :p Excellent battery since the day i got it

Nova Launcher

Hey guys,

Is there anyway i can remove NovaLauncher and revert to say TreBuchet ? I prefer the untouched look of CM11. Please don't tell me to go back to using CM11 :D
[HTC Sensation] mcfouch:
Try Kklauncher, I really like it.
[HTC Sensation] tomn222:
Hi,

I heard that a lot of (do not want to say all) developers left Sensation and moved to newer devices. Is that true? And in change-log one can see only translation updates. Does sb is planning to improve battery life, reading from sensor and so on?
[HTC Sensation] Ch3vr0n:
only 1200mAh my ass. U explain then why when i first got it it lasted 1.5x as the original ever did. Easily got 1.5d out of that replacement
[HTC Sensation] Bastaerd:
Because of your configuration + your old battery was probably old ;)
[HTC Sensation] Ch3vr0n:
Configuration now is exactly the same it is now. 1200mAh, sure and I'm Santa.

Verstuurd vanaf mijn Nexus 7 met Tapatalk
[HTC Sensation] lutyjj:
Ohh... So here is the link. The real capacity of this china-battery is 1230 mAh. Somewhere in provided link you can find graphic of discharging through Nova Tester that show 1230 mAh in this crap battery. Futhermore this battery is even thinner than original so it can't have more capacity.

Maybe you got 1.5d on this battery because your previous battery is completely dead?:D
[HTC Sensation] Ch3vr0n:
Well for starters that's not the same battery. If google translate is correct (i dont read russian) that one speaks of a 2450mAh battery, mine isn't 2450. Second mine didn't come from asia, and third. I sure as hell didn't pay "just $7" for it. anyways, nough said. Topic going Way OT.
[HTC Sensation] corumuk:
Maybe you could use an app like better battery widget pro to measure its capacity, then post a screenshot.

I wouldn't trust the label to be accurate, as has already been mentioned there are limitations on how much charge a particular size battery can hold.
[HTC Sensation] lutyjj:
Ok. But how can battery with 2680 mAh thinner that stock 1520/1750? It is impossible. Don't trust china-batteries.
[HTC Sensation] WnG88:
Off topic. While battery info is nice to know, it is more helpful if people mention what settings they have with this ROM that helps battery life.
[HTC Sensation] oefox:
Crappy Anker

I bought two of those anker 1900mAh batteries from amazon for my partner and myself (XE and orig) and can say they are NO better than my 2 year old 1530mAh battery from my original sensation. My partner's XE battery is superior in every aspect.

Pic for proof that I have them. I wanted them so badly to be better than OEM but the reality is that they are no better. I have used all 4 batteries in my phone and the XE one outlasted noticably.

I now have a monthly effort to try new roms to find one that lasts longer than a day :(
[HTC Sensation] corumuk:
I picked up one of these as a replacement

http://www.amazon.co.uk/HTC-Cell-Ph...0676546&sr=8-5&keywords=htc+sensation+battery

Its original HTC, cheaper than the standard battery yet higher capacity and fits the normal sensation perfectly. After a few charge cycles better battery monitor pro was showing its capacity as being bang on.
[HTC Sensation] FreakyDR:
This ROM have amazing battery life! All I did id to change in "Location" to " Battery saving" and change the governor to "ondemand".

Also I greenified all the apps I don't want to run in background like "Facebook", "Maps" , "Dropbox" etc.

Here I made some screens:
[HTC Sensation] lutyjj:
Emm... 1.1 h of screen is really amazing?
[HTC Sensation] FreakyDR:
1.1 h of screen time but with 1.5 day overall... and it's only half the battery...
[HTC Sensation] reasonz20:
which one of the sensation are you using? XE or 4G also what capacity your has?
[HTC Sensation] FreakyDR:
The sensation model doesn't matter... And anker battery...
[HTC Sensation] reasonz20:
ok [MENTION=4303216]FreakyDR[/MENTION]

Last weeks update was the first time I've had phone reboot with flash. Never had that with any ROM even previous slim versions.
[HTC Sensation] dexter93:
Hey guys

Sorry for not being active lately, it's been a rough few months. I'll need a tester or two willing to flash clean every time is needed and able to provide logs. Anyone available, hit me on PM

[HTC Sensation] Polv89:
Which recovery you use to flash slimkat on sensation xe?

i used ext4 1.0.0.6 rc3 but it remain in bootloop on htc splash screen

thanks
[HTC Sensation] sunanulh:
It's 4ext not ext4

Are you s-on?
[HTC Sensation] Polv89:
Ok, i mean that...

I'm s-on
[HTC Sensation] sunanulh:
Turn on 4ext smartflash before flashing the ROM.
[HTC Sensation] Polv89:
i've done it, but nothing...

now i want to restore ruu to the latest version then flash another rom

How can i flash ruu without a system running on phone? and, which version ? I'm reading here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1672425
[HTC Sensation] croccodillo:
Same problem here, when I receive a phone call and the screen is off, it takes up to 10 seconds before the screen lights on and shows me who is calling me...

Really annoying.

Longer the period the screen remained off, longer the time it tooks to revive.

Any solution for this issue?

Thank you in advance.

Apart from this, I really like the ROM.

Just a little bit too much battery hungry, but I can live with it.

Ciao,

Is this week's nightly not compiling properly? I only see the nightly from previous week.
[HTC Sensation] m3mmo:
Heheh I just wanted to ask the same.:D
[HTC Sensation] Erwin65:
See post #505

Dexter wants some testers for his rom. So perhaps you want to apply?

I ordered a oneplus one. When I have it I can use the sensation as test phone and do more easily a clean flash.
[HTC Sensation] ThatsABigOne:
Unfortunately, it is my only phone and I use it daily. I hope others will help the dev out because this rom has good potential. The only gripe I have is that there are no network arrows in notifications.
[HTC Sensation] Ch3vr0n:
built in governor and DPI changer would be nice too. The default 220 dpi is too small for the sensation' screen
[HTC Sensation] sunanulh:
Change to 240
[HTC Sensation] Ch3vr0n:
I already did. What I'm saying is that an internal setting would be nice to have instead of having to rely on a 3rd party app and 'risc potential rom conflicts/incompatibilities'

Verstuurd vanaf mijn Nexus 7 met Tapatalk
[HTC Sensation] sunanulh:
Nope, it doesn't rely on the app. It's permanently change the setting.
[HTC Sensation] Ch3vr0n:
Again you're not reading what I'm saying. I never said it relied on the app. I said WE (the users) shouldn't have to rely on an external app to change that setting! Big difference, a setting inside the ROM itself would be easier

Verstuurd vanaf mijn Nexus 7 met Tapatalk
[HTC Sensation] FreakyDR:
you can change it manually in build.prop if you don't want an app... anyway the only thing that the app does is to change the line, you can install it, change and uninstall...
[HTC Sensation] bluefender:
im willing to test beta's but not until oct, when get an m7, then the sensation can be used for testing
[HTC Sensation] real_sl4cker:
That's a matter of taste I think. I always change DPI to 220 because it adds real estate and doesn't feel too small for me [emoji12]

But luckily everyone can have the preferred setting in local.prop and it's even persistent (survives ROM flash because it's stored in /data) :

really strange issue... take a look pls...

I'm on latest weekly (7.9) from day 9... the same day the rom came out as always I installed from scratch... all worked till this morning

no other app installed, no upgrades, nothing new from 9-10 days

this morning I just made a backup from recovery and upon reboot I have now a constant media.process FC

tried almost everything, wiped caches, cleaned download folder, stopped and cleared media-gallery-download etc...

the funny thing... rebooted then restored previous working backup I get anyway that FC on media.process

I suppose something happened to my sd-card, a corrupted file could be? anyway right now I just copied all my sd-card to hard drive than formatted trough 4ext sd-card as regular fat and waiting to copy back from hard drive... let's see...

ideas or someone had the same issue? thank you :good:

EDIT:

OK I sorted it!

of course I supposed, something got corrupted... anyway...

I reinstalled all from scratch (without configuring a single bit), then

rebooted & recovered by recovery... from existent (previosly made) backup

now all works again... just spent 2 hours to restore... mysterious!
[HTC Sensation] Tonymoe09:
Dude this just happened to my SD card. How something got corrupted is beyond me. Haven't really downloaded anything besides some pictures from ebaumsworld. **** is scary ha. All my glorious music most not be gone. The phone reads the memory card but extremely slow and some of my music won't appear but its still on my SD card and I could play it through a file manager but the id3 tags are messed up.
[HTC Sensation] hinxnz:
Not sure what your issue could be but you could try this:

Wipe data for Media Storage in Settings, Apps, All.

Then goto Dev Tools in App draw and select Media Provider and then select Scan SD card.

Dutch Keyboard Dictionary Files

Does any body know how to add Keyboard Dictionary Files to this rom for autocorrection.

Thanks in advance.
[HTC Sensation] wieman01:
Hello,

I am hoping anyone of you can help me with an issue I have been facing: I am on Slimkat v7.9 and I absolutely love it. Please keep up the good work!

The only problem is that I depend on the volume rocker to work as power button as the power button itself is damaged. Now I have enabled "Power Rocker Wake" in the Settings, but after the screen goes off for more than 3 seconds I cannot wake the phone with the volumes buttons. It does work when the phone is connected to a power charger and if I stay within the 3 second limit.

Does anyone know how I can fix this? I have reformated the entire system (including the SD card) and this is a fresh install.

Thank you.
[HTC Sensation] Ch3vr0n:
So i just flashed the 8.0 build and to my surprise it removed SuperSU. As such over a dozen aps now lost their SU access, (including a few that need SU at boot). As a result of that about a minute in my phone locked on a black screen and i had to pull out the battery to restart it. Seriously not amused. Even with SuperSU in survival mode the app got completely uninstalled! I wonder what else i'll be missing. Avast anti-theft was also removed, This better not happen again or i'll be swapping back to Sultan's kitkat. No longer updated or not, atleast that rom didn't remove those aps

Why did this happen. It's not supposed to remove this right?

Pretty sure it's related to the line "format sytem & data" i saw during the dirty flash update.

Fix it!
[HTC Sensation] Moh Kohn:
Seriously, you really mean that!?

I suggest you make your own build that caters for your every need. There is no fixing needed, it does what it does. SU is replaced by the superuser in the ROM, all you have to do is reinstall SU and you are good to go.

Other app I haven't got a clue, would imagine it's a system app that will be wiped, you could add it to the updater script or you could just reinstall it.

I suggest you change your attitude because this is available to you for free.
[HTC Sensation] Ch3vr0n:
I damn well mean that yes.

sultan's is also based on CM11 and as such has the built in cm superuser. Guess what, that one DIDNT uninstall SuperSU or all the configured apps. So yes there IS fixing needed. No it wasn't installed as a system app either. So it shouldn't have happened, that's my point. If it was a system app then SuperSU itself warns that it could be wiped. But since it wasn't, ...

I don't need to change my attitude as i don't have one, it shouldn't have happened plain and simple.

Why SuperSU? Well for starters the binary receives regular updates, & more
[HTC Sensation] bluefender:
8.0 build working here, no glitches as yet
[HTC Sensation] Mrsofsof:
I' m sitting Here and laugh about your. Dude that is a weekly xD and I think with your stupid Text you get nobody under pressure xD
[HTC Sensation] FreakyDR:
Go use sultan's ROM and leave this thread!!! :mad:
[HTC Sensation] Ch3vr0n:
Hmz yeah, maybe it comes across a bit too strong and demanding. Could have worded it otherwise. I just wonder why it's happening and would like to see it fixed, as neither of my previous roms had this issue. And since SuperSU doesn't keep a backup of file where it stores which aps have permission it's a very anoying bug, if you have a considerable amount of aps that require superuser. It's not a big issue if u only have 1 or 2 aps, but my current list is upto a dozen and grows reguraly. Having to redo them all IS a big issue.

[MENTION=4303216]FreakyDR[/MENTION]: leave yourself. I'm simply reporting a (big) bug
[HTC Sensation] FreakyDR:
You are reporting your "bug" in an rude way. No one owns you anything and if you don't like the ROM so don't use it. :mad: Plus it's a nightly, and called this way because bugs may accure. :cowboy:

The ROM have integrated superuser, so when you dirty flash the rom the superusers get into conflict and ofcourse SuperSU is the one that goes away, or reinstall it after flash or use the ROM's superuser...
[HTC Sensation] Ch3vr0n:
First, its not a nightly. No such indication on slimroms site

second, i said it could have been worded differently. Aint gonna apologise twice

Third: integrated superuser is irrelevant. Sultan's roms also have the built in superuser. They're based on the same AOSP code, yet it never removed SuperSU and yes i always dirtyflashed. Hmz, i wonder why? Oh wait, the bug i just reported.
[HTC Sensation] FreakyDR:
first, it is a nightly! (ok weekly, but it's the same logic- not stable)

second, there is a way reporting bugs, of course not in a rude demanding way, plus this is the link for how to report bugs on slimkat http://www.slimroms.net/index.php/bugs

and again, if this ROM makes problems for you and sultans not, so use sultans ROM...
[HTC Sensation] xchan88:
SU was not removed dude.. It's just disabled. Go to settings >Enable developer options> Root> apps or apps and adb. You just need to know what your doing before you nag about something! Regarding your avast.. You should've always remember to have a backup app like titanium backup and restore your avast.. As simple as that.. Now quit nagging and try researching dude.. Not everything needs to be spoonfed. Reading helps..
[HTC Sensation] Ch3vr0n:
Did I say su was removed? NO! I said the App 'SuperSU' by chainfire! got removed during the dirty flash. Maybe before you tell me that I should know what I'm doing take tour own advice and learn to read. Never once did I say su was removed, I prefer SuperSU over the built in ones.

Let there be peace. This is a small issue.
[HTC Sensation] saldymhmd:
If SuperSU was removed during dirty flash, just redownload from Play Store and everything is fine, right? Why it so hard?
[HTC Sensation] Ch3vr0n:
Why is it so hard? Maybe you should learn to read as well. I already said why. When SuperSU for removed, so did it's list with all the apps that had been granted such permission. That is why! It's not a big deal if it were only 1 or 2apps, but my list currently stands at a dozen or more and several of them are in parts that need different permissions, some even during boot. Now when SuperSU gets removed I had to tell every single one, that is why, a major annoyance.

Verstuurd vanaf mijn Nexus 7 met Tapatalk
[HTC Sensation] saldymhmd:
You told me to read as well? You think I'm a 5 years old child? All slimkat roms for all device use built in superuser, not SuperSU, and their permissions is set to 'disable' on first boot. Then you used SuperSU before, dirty flashed new rom, the new rom will use system/xbin/su so it will bypassing SuperSU. My only advice is, just keep with built in superuser, to avoid conflict like this, this is your only problem, not a big bug happens on slimroms.
[HTC Sensation] Ch3vr0n:
Hmm and where do you think SuperSU is installed? Oh wait, how about system/xbin. And no I won't be using the built in superuser and I already said why as well. It's a bug that needs to be fixed. Anyway I'm done with ppl telling me to use the built in one, I won't and never will.

Slim-pyramid-4.4.4.build.8.0-WEEKLY-6966

So I installed Slim-pyramid-4.4.4.build.8.0-WEEKLY-6966

Unfortunately I'm going to have to go for a different rom as I have had several key problems with it

The first is that it is not accessing the play store correctly. Now this could be how the phone interacts with my network but still it barely loads it.

Internet page loads are also slow. Again I don't know why but I haven't had this issue before.

It is because of this issue I have to move to a different ROM. Again most likely not your fault but a critical fault for my use.

I'm not personally a fan of the small resolution while I can see it, I have to put extra energy into it. Which I don't particularly want to do. I do appreciate that others out there do want a higher resolution.

I've used the phone for about an hour.
[HTC Sensation] wieman01:
Which ROM will you go for?
[HTC Sensation] Scorchgid:
[UnORom][3.4Kernel] CM-11 Android 4.4.4 [Stable v2.0][29 July][Final]

However I am experiencing the connectivity issue on this one as well so it may well be a network issue rather than a rom issue. But I think even I had a choice between the two. Unless I could change the resolution I'd stick with this one.
