Just got my Senstaion. - HTC Sensation

All i can say is i am extremly happy with it. i am coming from the moto atrix, which was horrible. it was worse then my mytouch 4g. the difference is like night and day, even with less RAM.
there is something i want to know though. the bar at the bottom of the homescreen isnt exactly "smooth". i posted a pic, you cant tell much on it since it is blurry. not really much of a problem, just weird

Is that a stable build? I have a Sensation from work and rely on it to work all the time so I don't want to screw things up.

sorry for late reply, and yes it is very stable i havent had one force close. its also much faster and looks better than the stock ROM. you should try it out, make sure you download the TMOUS tweaks thats on the site where you download the ROM from. if you have the US version that is.

There are 3 most Stable ROMs that I have come accross without any issues..
1) Insert Coin 3.4.4 by baadnewz
2) HyperNonSense v7 by kristofpetho
3) Sensation 2.08.401.1 | Stock Rooted Rom by EddyOS..
Remaining all I found buggy, battery drainers or unstable..

if you look at paul's changelog, you'll notice that he manually odexed v5, so v4 isn't already odexed. I'm porting v4 already.

More ram no keyboard might as well get a different phone G1 is outdated, stay on topic please.
If someone can port this, lets get it optimized and addicted to steroids before a release. The MTSlide ports are laggy as hell after a days work, but this looks promising.
Last time devs were working on the pulse roms they quit because of things that they would fix broke other things. Soon it became something like "Fixed wifi, but broke BT" kinda thing. Lets hope this is better!
Good luck guys, excited!

I agree. That's not msm7200 turbo performance. If we get this to boot completely, we'll see. Not too much work left for that.
Here is a link for a build of mine (based on Paul's r6, so it is odexed unfortunately, because r4 was in a worse mess (seperated ramdisk)) that shows the t-mobile pulse logo with the pink circle (boot screen) but simply loops that animation, and gets stuck on a libaudio.so related problem. CM .33 kernel, compiled for this (should technically have same md5 as the one in test4). Help me out devs. This isn't signed (ignore the filename), I assume that anyone who is going to work on this at least knows how to sign a file
http://www.mediafire.com/?wmnoyzmmcdt
Good Luck to anyone who helps me. I'll continue tomorrow or on the weekend, I have a math test to study for.
looks pretty good considering its a 192mb ram phone, (though i thought it was 128mb)
A member of TMo staff (UK) confirmed the RAM/ROM as:
SDRAM with 128 MB
Flash EEPROM ROM with 256 MBI was sooo gonna get this until I saw the 256MB… will this have the same trouble as the G1 with future updates [i know 1.6 fits]Anyone know the partition size od the /system on the pulse?
Putting off buying this phone now

[Q] Can somebody help me?

So I'm using the the Inspired AOSP RC1 and am having issues with making phone calls, and I can't use youtube, for whatever reason. I can use the browser, I can use facebook, but no youtube, and no phone calls. I'm using Leedroid'd kernel, which might be the issue, but it's giving me some pretty nice oc'ing potential so I don't want to just flash it if that's not the issue. Can somebody help me?
I'm a noobie, so if I've forgotten anything please don't hate on me.
Wipe relfash the rom, and instead of flashing a kernel that wasn't made for vanilla, try flashing one that was made for it, like lord mod's for cm7.
You're using a Sense kernel on an AOSP rom. Don't do that.
Thanks, I am now realizing how much of a noobie move that was. Thanks for not flaming.

Any info about pure Gingerbread on Senstion?

Is there any info about flashing Pure gingerbread in our Sensations. Just got an T-Mobile US Sensation from my local Walmart. I love sense 3.0 but would really like to see how fast thing will bein Pure Ginger mode.
Sorry if it's been asked already.
considering it has a locked bootloader. We cant get any roms on it yet lol

I've been thinking about this as well. Since it is not possible to load custom roms yet, your only option is a launcher from the android market. There is actually an Android 2.3 Launcher available in the market for 99¢ which might improve performance since it would disable Sense. I don't know if that's the case for sure but it's only a buck so you might as well try it.

You guys prob have a lot of dudes like me coming here and asking this q over and over. Should be a sticky maybe in every forum.
So here goes: I have the Vibrant and want to switch. I don't like the G2x. So was thinking of the SENSATION. How do you like yours?
Battery life? Good ROMs in the Dev section? ICS is coming to it? Overall - are you happy?
Thanks a million! Good year to you all

Personally, I'm pretty satisfied with the phone. Had to send it in for warranty though due to a dead pixel
If you can get it at a cheaper price compared to the S2/Galaxy Note, I'd say go for it

Dont see why anyone would want the NOTE. It's a tablet. but that's besides the point 9:
10000% HappY
I Love my Sensation XE . As my first android phone, I was getting confused between XE/GS2 . but when i practically handled them side by side...GS2 were a "Big NO" for my taste. i admit the screen is....but that's it..actually it hurts to see so over saturated color & the exterior look of total body is waaaayyyyyy inferior than XE. I dont give a damn about "benchmark"..as i do play..Shadowgun/ Asphault6 on my XE...and games like these literally fly..in terms of both look and performance. To me, my XE RockS.

That's what I thought until I tried my friend's Note, it's so big that it makes the Sensation look tiny
love my sensation - now that i've flashed ARHD rom..it turned into XE with beats audio with speed bump to 1.5ghz and enhanced audio quality. the phone is very smooth but i have yet to try ICS roms on it. Will wait for more stable release before i try flashing one.

[Q] Anyone know why this is happening

I am running Undead's ICS v5.3 and the display keeps turning on and off randomly and frequently .
Undead suggested i reflash ... so I did and it worked for a while and now its doing it again and it only did it on this rom and as far as I know im the only one having this problem . running the stock kernel .
Any ideas as to what would cause display to turn on and off frequently at random ?

Yes you may do that, the 1.7 is just the max it will set your processor to, under-clockable.

Also keep in mind, dual core means two cores running at the assigned speed...I run at around 700 on most profiles i have setup in SetCPU because thats 1.4 ... keep that in mind you dont need a whole lotta power for our device
