CM12.1 +Gapps, ran the best, like amazingly so, yet I cannot install apps from the playstore, they sit there for 20 minutes then say unknown failure and thus, don't install. During flash it would come up with failed to mount /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/userdata , it would then proceed to write manually and after a few minutes it would indeed say success! Camera worked best on this build, very low battery but didn't crash the phone! (happens quite a bit)

If you are using Aroma I presume that you are using 4EXT, try using [MENTION=4329165]ivanich[/MENTION] TWRP

are you using [MENTION=1909299]hinxnz[/MENTION] boot mods, these must be flashed after gapps.

you could try this gapps, have had good success with it.

[HTC Sensation] eugenesan:

Since CM doesn't have cm-12.0-caf-8660 I guess I should use ivanich's hardware repos?

Also I've noticed that ivanich's hardware repos for cm-12.1-caf-8660 are much more fresh...

However, this Facebook lite sounds interesting actually! thanks for the tip!

Never tried TWRP but once I get my LG back i'll play around with the sensation a bit and throw TWRP on it and check it out.

thanks for the post! Appreciated it!
[HTC Sensation] ivanich:
cm-12.1-20150906-UNOFFICIAL-pyramid.zip is available. Untested.

Main change is Adaptive lowmemory killer feature

NOTE: Can be flashed only from TWRP-2.8.7.0-r3 due to cm upstream changes.
[HTC Sensation] francesco totti:
So this is your last build for Sensation ?!?! Thanks for your efforts and all the things you brought to this phone ! :)
[HTC Sensation] eugenesan:
Thanks!

Just in case anyone will decide to update TWRP in future, maybe you could post REPOs you've used for recovery and maybe few lines of instructions?

P.S. I am currently testing, but my build from today (20150906) fails to get data connection over 3G.

P.P.S Seems like Ivanich's build also fails to connect mobile data.

P.P.P.S False alarm. Seems like something broke during TWRP backup/restore.

[HTC Sensation] Pierrot Lunaire:
Every time I try to flash CM12 a different app crashes... And every time I try with a clean flash (full wipe, no backup restores) with hopes to get one stable flash without FCs. I had the music player crash, the calendar, camera, exchange service. At first I tried with gapps pico which was worse because I had more crashes and then tried with gapps mini which had better results. Also seems like every time the number of apps being optimized right after flash is different. Any chance I'm doing something wrong?! Now the music player won't start and google+ crashes... can I fix only this problem and just keep working with the ROM?

Hello, my Sensation XE is really like i have a new phone with that rom. And rock-solid stable ;) But i want to undervolt it and i think that the kernel contained in that rom does not allow undervolting. I know that flashing another kernel will solve the problem, but i don't want a different kernel than the stock. Is there anything i can do?
[HTC Sensation] pbazw:
shut down

my phone keeps shutting off while just sitting idle . Has anyone seen this yet with the latest 12.1 build?
[HTC Sensation] hinxnz:
Check your sdcard for errors and download rom again, wipe all except sdcard and try again.

If your still getting issues wipe all again including system, flash rom but without gapps to rule it out because more than likely it not related to rom.
[HTC Sensation] y2p:
My SennyXE just resurrected with this new cm12 build. Great effort devs, TYSM.
[HTC Sensation] JimboVV:
Hey i have a problem with all last cm12 builds. Every time after i go out of the house and push the power button, the phone is booting. So i think the phone crashes because of the loss wifi signal or somehow because of the mobile data use.

Does anyone has the same problem? Its always if i am abroad (had that crash 20 times already).
[HTC Sensation] dimangelid:
Is there anything i can do about that?

I use it for three days, i am using data all the day, either WiFi, either mobile data, i move a lot so it changes from WiFi to mobile and the opposite. No reboots, no connectivity issues. It's a very stable ROM. The only problems i have is the battery drain (not related with that ROM, it happens even with Sense roms but i don't care because it's not my main phone) and the heating problem.

sd is good it only happens with this build same apps and setup when i go back no trouble.

hope this helps it shut down during 9-18-7-6-24
[HTC Sensation] hinxnz:
Did you start recording logcat in terminal or adb before whatever you do to cause a random reboot?

last_kmsg shows what caused kernel to reboot system.

You also have xposed framework installed, maybe outdated? Try ROM without it.
[HTC Sensation] saldymhmd:
Just reporting again here, Sir [MENTION=4329165]ivanich[/MENTION]. On latest September 18 Build, it just like audio routing problem. I have no sound on music player when I plug the headset, then the music app goes force close.

[HTC Sensation] WnG88:
Will you be fixing it in cm11 as well? Please...
[HTC Sensation] ivanich:
Whats wrong with cm11?
[HTC Sensation] andy hall:
I have just come CM11 using viper4android and Rocket player, I use the phone as an mp3 player when driving for work, 3 hour stints through the headphones socket. no issues at all.

I hAVE BEEN REMOVING dspmanager and music though.

not sure if this helps in any way.
[HTC Sensation] hinxnz:
The only error from that snip is {09-18 07:06:15.362 E/FitnessApp(4637): Could not connect to Google Play API. Error code: 16} and not related.

Upload last_kmsg if random reboot occurs, shutdowns are normally always battery failure especially if not shutting down while connected to a power source. And yes both batteries could be failing.

Logcats are better taken with adb or terminal, printed to a log file because it won't fail when your device shuts down or reboots.
[HTC Sensation] Burth67:
Hello can someone point me to the link or post, on how to setup my system partition en sd card for ivanich 12.1 rom.

Thanks, :fingers-crossed:
[HTC Sensation] devrruti:
Backup everything from the SD to a computer, then partition the microsd with one partition (4 GB or so) in f2fs or ext4 fileformat and the other partition in fat32 fileformat

You can do this with twrp recovery or with an application in your computer (you could use gparted Linux live CD)

Then after flashing the rom, flash hinxnz mod. You need to flash this mod every time you install or upgrade the rom
[HTC Sensation] ivanich:
He asks about system partition and not about data, however I have no idea why this migration of system partition is needed? Only if it was ruined otherwise it's makes no sense.
[HTC Sensation] Burth67:
I just wanted to know witch file system i should used for all the different partition, not only system and sd card. sorry for the misunderstanding. :o
[HTC Sensation] ivanich:
/system - only ext4(otherwise it will not boot)

/data -ext4 or f2fs

/cache -ext4 or f2fs

/sd-ext -ext4 (f2fs can be used by ramdisk fstab modifying I guess)

/sdcard -vfat(but with some tricks any fs can be used(ext4,f2fs) )
[HTC Sensation] Burth67:
Thanks i am grateful for the info :highfive:

[HTC Sensation] dimangelid:
I run the build of 9/15 (according to "About phone"), Xposed Framework v74 SDK22, Boot Mod v2.1, my recovery is TWRP 2.8.7.0 from the first post and i use f2fs file system (even for SD-EXT) except SYSTEM that uses EXT4. I decided to update to the build of 9/20, so i downloaded the new build and the latest OpenGAPPS. I backed up my system and then i flashed with the following order:

1. New build

2. Boot Mod v2.1

3. Xposed V74 SDK22

4. Latest OpenGAPPS

After flash has finished the phone started booting, stayed at the green HTC logo and after a minute rebooted. I left it for 5-6 minutes but the same thing was happening. I restored my backup, i run the Xposed uninstall script and i flashed again everything except the Xposed framework. That time it booted with default rom settings :P I tried flashing a few more times (either with Xposed or without) but i had no luck, so i restored my backup and stopped trying. Does anyone else faced that problems? What can i do?
[HTC Sensation] hinxnz:
I'm using Xposed framework v73 at the moment with no issues with that build.

Xposed framework v74 was released on the 11th so I assume to use v74, you would need the nightly that was released then for it to work. When I do install Xposed framework, I always install it after setting up ROM and not in the same recovery session but probably makes no difference.
[HTC Sensation] dimangelid:
I made a big mistake, i'm sorry. The build i'm running is released on 15th of September according to the "About phone" . I have deleted the .zip of that version so i'm not absolutely sure about the version...

That shutdown problem in deep sleep happens for my senny too. Bizarrely my senny dont generate any last_kmsg files in /proc. Only the normal kmsg file is present. Is there any other folder for the last kmsg file or am I doing something else wrong?

What happens:

1. The phone runs (everything works perfect).

2. I press the power button.

3. The HTC logo shows up and phone is rebooting (probably the phone has crashed)

4. After that reboot i open a root file explorer, but no last-kmsg file is present.

[HTC Sensation] willy1521:
No shutdown here...but still have reboots when coverage is low or when there is conflict between two repeaters.

Hangouts I have to switch to speaker then to headset back and forth a few times before I can hear them or they can hear me. Sometimes it works other times, I have to call again. Same for Skype.

thank you for your great rom..

have been using cm-12.1-20150923-UNOFFICIAL-pyramid.zip for couple of days.

and have suddenly reboot when GAPPS installed. but if no GAPPS no random reboot,

not found this phenomenon when running august or july build.

EDIT : Just now i have 1 random reboot when try to connect to network data

EDIT2 : i have reboot when try to connect to network data

i think its not this rom problem, maybe my old sensation got problem

i will try to install viper rom first

[HTC Sensation] hinxnz:
Seeing you found it was gapps causing it, why don't you just update or flash another gapps package.

https://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Google_Apps#Downloads
[HTC Sensation] Kallli:
I successfully flashed Cyanogenmod 12. Afterwards I wanted to install GAPPS (ARM, 5.1, different versions). I tried to install the Aroma-Version but the phone froze when I was pressing "next" during the flashing process. The Stock- und Full-Version need to much space. The micro-Version was successfully flashed but after a reboot there were no Google Apps installed.

Did anyone have the same problem? What am I doing wrong?
[HTC Sensation] -Jonny-:
I installed with nano fine. Perhaps aroma is too big.

I just notice this setting today which appears to be auto after you select one of the preset profile not able to see the setting. This could have been hear in some others builds that I never notice could you give some insight? is it change kernel settings?
[HTC Sensation] -Jonny-:
I'm loving this ROM. Thanks ivanich for bringing us lollipop to sensation.

Has anyone found way of using headphones with Music app? Every time I plug mine in, music won't play and eventually app falls over. It's fine through speaker though?!
[HTC Sensation] hinxnz:
No issues here with audio on very latest build and previous too, check your headphone jack isn't earthing out on case where you plug it in, if it worn, sometimes this can cause weird behaviour. Also you could try flashing rom again without wiping.
[HTC Sensation] eugenesan:
I've just performed full wipe installed latest recovery (TWRP-2.8.7.0-pyramid-f2fs-r4.img) reformatted all partitions and installed latest rom (cm-12.1-20150929-UNOFFICIAL-pyramid.zip).

Phone powered-off in few minutes.

So the problem is not Gapps, network coverage or ROM modification.

I guess a change introduced somewhere between versions 20150911 and 20150925 is to blame.
