I'm not sure if I'm posting this in the correct forum; or if someone could just answer my question but here goes. Earlier today I was reading about sbc kernels and I was wondering if I were to flash a aosp sbc kernel would I still be able to use setcpu? I'm using cm6.1.2
I wasn't aware the evo shift had a sbc kernel..

Don't believe it does... publicly anyway.
If you flash a kernel from another vendor then it'll just loop, but if you flash a kernel that's proven to work for Speedy, then yes SetCPU will work

If you move up to CM7, you should not use SetCPU. CM7 has CPU options built-in by going to Settings > CyanogenMod Settings > Performance > CPU Settings.

Yeah... now that I have a phone that can handle sense without slowing to a crawl, I actually enjoy it. It is full of eye candy. There isn't a whole lot of significant changes in 2.3 as compared to 2.2 like there was from 2.1 to 2.2, either, so I haven't stuck with cyanogen yet this time... I feel it coming though. That need for speed is calling...
Oppz my bad I meant evo 4g not the shift. So as of right now I'm fine using setcpu but once I flash cm7 I should then uninstall it. I'm waiting until there is a stable release of cm7 until I flash but, I am also considering the possibility now because bluetooth isn't working right now and I wanna get a feel for cm7 =D

So you have the Evo? Not the Shift? The Evo forum might be a better place to ask if that's the case, you're in the Shift forum. If you are talking about the Shift then try out CM7. It is stable, just has a few known bugs.

Oh wow I didn't even realize that I had posted this in the shift forum. I guess I didn't read it correctly but I'm glad to know I have some feedback if I need it. But even if this is the shift forum wouldn't the answer be the same for the regular evo 4g?
my sensation rooted and s-off is at 29% and it says flash cant be used cuz battery is low!? is there something wrong? or is my battery not calibrated yet?
No, it's that way for me too. It's dumb but yeah.

It would be a value somewhere that could be changed but will require some digging around and probably root access.
Perhaps the limitation is built into the camera app itself. Does this limitation occur with any 3rd party camera app?
This limitation has been the same for all HTC phones released in the last 12 months or so. My old Desire HD used to do the same thing when the battery was "low".
it is pretty annoying, im sure a developer will find it soon, just needs a little digging around like jivemaster said.
Yeah, it is annoying. Gotta have your battery charged in case you go out at night I guess.
oh alright then
It is very annoying for me also. I usually go out for half hour and have 30-40% battery charged so mostly it goes below 30% and not having falsh enabled is a big mess. Since I am a photography lover & I love to capture precious moments. Someone should come up with with a way around.

Have you tried disabling power saver?

I had same problem. Solution for me was upgrading to latest ROM (2.3.4 ->1.45.401.2 ) ofcourse original, HTC ROM, because I bought this phone for sense 3.0 (i don't know why people write new ROM without sense and say ... My ROM is better... There is something wrong with them...I think.. ...

Flash a custom kernel. I know faux's kernel's have lowered the limit to 10%.
Controlled by the kernel.
Some custom kernels lower the threshold (as long as power saver is off).
Check the Sensation Development section and read up on kernels.
Faux and Bricked both offer lower thresholds, I believe. Check Unity as well.
The features and changelogs will be in first or second post of Kernel thread.
P.
I think it is great idea! What if you got ALOT of stuff to backup, and flash at the same time, and suddenly the battery runs out.. Think about that.

Sorry to hear about your HTC Desire Z, that's annoying. When you get your confidence back I'd recommend trying HyperSensation http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1302969
It doesn't overclock the CPU (as standard) and there really is no need to do so, I run it using a slightly tweaked (lower screen off max and lower minimums for both) version of the settings in post #3 (with bricked kernel)

There is a lot of things that can brick your phone. Not only the kernel.
I would recommended the Rom posted above (and in my sig). I have like 20 hours battery time, with moderate use. If you flash a new kernel, you can underclock, and maybe get more battery time. You really dont need ~1200 MHz on some roms, if you don't play a lot of games and so.

Honestly, I don't see why or how wifi tethering could in any possible way brick your phone, since it's a given option from the factory.. I mean I'm still new to the HTC phones so I could be wrong, but I highly doubt that tethering is one or if any a reason why you bricked your other phone.

I have tried all HyperSensation versions since 0.2 and can prove that it's lightning fast even being reduced to 800MHz maximum. Everything works great, except CSipSimple which plays no sound with it.
Without CSipSimple I've got about 60 hours of life on batteries with about 20 hours of wifi-connection, 6 hours of playing mp3's and about 40 minutes of phone-calls.
BTW, SIP-callers somehow interfere with phone.android app with fatal errors and force close events while trying to make a call. With ARHD I do not notice such behavior.

Hy there.i am the new owner of a super smartphone named sensation. I want to know what rom should i use for best performance and great battery life? I want to chose between the stock one, cm7 cyanogen, or android hd revolution. I see that most of you chose the revolutiob hd.....why?
I notice that i want a fully work rom, with all the features work properly.....so....what is the best rom for you?
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA Premium App
There is no "best" rom. Depends what you need. If you're new to the Sensation I suggest that you stay with the Stock ROM and kernel. In my personal opinion it's the most comprehensive solution that doesn't cause any side effects. I tried quite some of custom roms and either they where suffering from poor performance, contained bugs or just the battery drainage was unbearable. Not to mention that staying on the stock rom enables OTA updates.
What jackos is saying is right, there is no best rom. Its up to you to read through the threads and find a couple you like the look of. Then start flashing roms, eventually you'll find the one that does what you want. As long as you make backups you pretty much can't go wrong.
Thank you peopele for the answers.....

I would recommend giving Coredroid a shot.
They have released their final version, (2.7) it's a super stable ROM that i use as my daily, has great battery life (once calibrated) it's nice and fast and works without needing much (if any) tweaking.
But the best thing you can do is back up your current rom and try flashing a few, see what you like best. Sense or No-Sense, themed, stock, 3.0 or 3.5 there are many options.
Before I settled on Coredroid I tried CM7 and ARHD. I loved CM7 but I had a few issues with the ROM (mainly due to the camera) but I love CM7 and the support and updates that frequently get pushed out.
ARHD was great, everything was all good with that ROM, battery life was good once calibrated but I had issues with MMS that I couldn't fix so I tried out Coredroid and loved it.
The issues I had with CM7 and ARHD could have been fixed by me if I had the time and patience but Coredroid worked out of the box so was a winner for me.
Android Revolution
I use android revolution. I am a rather novice user, dont know all the ins and outs of Android (or Linux) and i think ARHD is pretty easy and stil you benefit from being rooted and having some more control...
That said the only other ROMS i tried are Revolver and RCMix, but i liked ARHD better because of the Sensation XE "unlock"...
Please tell me if the android revolution really makes an 1.5 gh procesor.....because i can't see how it does it.......it doesn't make sense.........it use less ram then the stock one?
Wich rom use less ram than the stock one??

Apparrently the sensation processor was underclocked, so most of the custom ROMS simply remove that underclocking. Regarding using less RAM, that is due to the ROM developers removing some pre-installed apps and services that consume memory.

1st is wrong, 2nd is partially right.
CPU is clocked at whatever speed by using CUSTOM KERNEL, it has nothing to do with rom.
RAM is normally freed by more aggressive task killer, sense prioritizing (major) + some apps removal (minor).
Again, all info is here, just spend an hour or two looking into it, will save you a lot of time down the line
Damn, tinky1, I can't believe you wrote this nonsense.
Of course Sensation has got a stock underclocked processor. You better read the Qualcomm MSM8260 whitepaper before you try to prove someone wrong.
Miui.us 11/26/11 FTW
I just have to say it. I have tried a ton of ROMS and just made my first donation to a ROM by the name of Miui. While bluetooth doesn't work for me it is still the best ROM.
My favorite things are...
Battery Indicator as a line running across the top
themes, there are just so many
battery and signal is amazing
I'd really like to see some signal strength tests for miui v sense roms, is there really that much difference between them?

First, if you want to stick to tech specs, then read that msm8x60 is native at 1.2-1.5, so TECHNICALLY its neither underckocked or overclocked between these frequencies.
Second, processor is not physically set to 1.2, its all on sw level.
Third, he said custom roms remove underclocking-wrong, just as I explained, its.custom KERNEL which deals.with clocks.
Fourth , before you try to prove someone wrong who is proving someone else wrong, do some thinking

I guess you don't know yourself what you're talking about
About the rom-kernel thing, I would agree with that if custom roms wouldn't overwrite kernels. So if you install a custom rom you change the clock too. Makes sense to me.
It depends what KERNEL is included with the ROM. So no, custom ROM does not under/over clock UNLESS custom KERNEL is included. So we are back to kernel being responsible for clock again.
Re your quote from another thread. Read again, carefully and take the note of word "kernel".
You seem to see what you want to see, instead of looking into post and understanding what it actually means. Re-read from my first post in this thread.

LOL, you're so stubborn
You said that it isn't true that Sensation processor is underclocked. Right? Or shall I quote you again?
brett_c wrote that custom roms remove underclocking. That's correct, because if we compare 1,2Ghz to 1,5Ghz it's clearly that technically speaking one speed is underclocked to another.
Another thing is that you wrote that CPU speed has nothing to do with a rom. That's not true, because we use cpu controllers to adjust the governors and frequencies. I could cook you a rom that runs at 500Mhz max without changing the kernel. So it's not only a damn kernel thing.
Ok, whatever. You seem to expand into too many things here.
As I said, nevermind.
There are too many IFs here to explain without going into it too deep.
I was only pointing out that processor=CPU=hardware is not physically underclocked on OG Sensationcompared to XE. It is downclocked using kernel.
Peace.

I saw other threads like this but they're not necessarily answering the question for the HTC One X AT&T.
See, my HTC One X (had it since last late June) is really laggy. I switched from the default Sense 4 launcher to Nova Launcher Prime, was a BIT smoother but still laggy as hell. I tried another launcher (8Launcher - Windows theme lol) and it was alright for a bit. Now it's stuttering every time I unlock and it's just annoying.
I'm considering rooting my phone, but will that fix this? Getting a new ROM? I want butter like everyone else...
Seems like I'm the only person with a laggy phone while I see people on YouTube and on these forums with buttery phones and I'm just drooling and getting annoyed because I know my phone SHOULD be capable of getting that.
Thanks!
Rooting in and of itself will do nothing but give you root access.
But custom roms and kernels, with debloating, should speed you up. Two apps should help: Greenift and lagfix.
I would also suggest, once you're unlocked and s-off, updating to the most recent firmware via ruu. Don't do it before rooting or you'll be stuck unrooted. Also, don't do it unless you're s-off or you may brick your phone applying the jb RUU over supercid.

Just going to throw my two cents in...
I've had the ATT One X for a little less than a year and never had any lag. Although I've been rooted and running a custom rom since the root was released for 2.20. I got it back pre - AT&T Jelly Bean release so maybe running stock JB lags the phone. Not too sure what you are running and / if you close apps when you are done (shouldn't make a huge difference if only a few are open) but if you DO root and run a custom rom the lag should disappear. If you want a sense rom I would suggest HatkaXL with the ElementalX kernel for no lag and good battery even though I switch roms weekly or more. I usually prefer AOSP roms but screen tearing is a big turnoff for me lately. The sense roms paired with ElementalX or Bulletproof kernels generally have the best battery life.
If anything I stated was incorrect feel free to correct it, as I said just throwing MY two cents in. :good::laugh:
I'm running stock JB on my AT&T One X. No lag here, and didn't notice any when I was running ICS. It's a bit weird that you are having that issue. Besides running roms, rooting will allow you to remove system apps, like AT&T bloatware which can surely lag your phone and waste precious ram. I would go for it. Only reason I'm not rooted is because I didn't do due diligence and wanted to test drive my phone before voiding the warranty.

Look in the sticky sections. All your info is there. If you are unsure then footing is probably not for you. Steps are too easy for someone to hold your hand. So don't expect people to walk with you. After you root (if you decide) then look for lag fix on the play store

Can someone tell me which one actually speeds up the phone and fixes errors?
The kernel or the custom ROM? Which one do I have to flash once I root my error-filled phone?
Thanks!
Its really both. You can flash a kernel and make changes inside the custom ROM. However. Being that you are some what new, I suggest using lag fix and ROM cleaner. (Two apps in the play store )

Can you explain the difference of a kernel and custom ROM? Sorry, really newbie...
And LagFix really works?
Also sent you a PM.

For you, I would suggest flashing a aosp ROM. Don't worry about the kernel right now. Look in the stickies and look for the x factor

Just going to throw my two cents in...
I've had the ATT One X for a little less than a year and never had any lag. Although I've been rooted and running a custom rom since the root was released for 2.20. I got it back pre - AT&T Jelly Bean release so maybe running stock JB lags the phone. Not too sure what you are running and / if you close apps when you are done (shouldn't make a huge difference if only a few are open) but if you DO root and run a custom rom the lag should disappear. If you want a sense rom I would suggest HatkaXL with the ElementalX kernel for no lag and good battery even though I switch roms weekly or more. I usually prefer AOSP roms but screen tearing is a big turnoff for me lately. The sense roms paired with ElementalX or Bulletproof kernels generally have the best battery life.
If anything I stated was incorrect feel free to correct it, as I said just throwing MY two cents in. :good::laugh:

I haven't experience any screen tearing on Cory's latest Unofficial CM10.1 ROM with the linaro v4 kernel. Have you tried disabling HW in dev settings? It was a must before to get rid of the tearing but now it's unnecessary

I did, it was very VERY minimal still noticeable for me I've been running Sense MIUIv5 and love LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! Think I found a rom I can stick with for a while! :good::good:

Rooting in and of itself will do nothing but give you root access.
But custom roms and kernels, with debloating, should speed you up. Two apps should help: Greenift and lagfix.
I would also suggest, once you're unlocked and s-off, updating to the most recent firmware via ruu. Don't do it before rooting or you'll be stuck unrooted. Also, don't do it unless you're s-off or you may brick your phone applying the jb RUU over supercid.

How does greenify reduce lag? I thought it was used pretty much just to save battery life

Well if I am current, I would imagine it will also hibernate the process, thus allowing you to use more memory. Could be wrong though. But I do know the major feature is battery.

Correct, the process is no longer in memory so it saves memory and allows for better multitasking and a smoother experience. As well as better battery, of course.
This phone has lag? What... Um I'm confused.
I need to sit down.

That was my thought.. only time I've gained any lag is when I've done something completely full on retard with set cpu or kernel tuner......
