I was wondering what kind of tricks and tips you could tell to keep the sensation as fast as it was before installing any apps ?
i know its not possible unless i wipe it off but i'm a heavy user and want to know what kind of tricks out there to make it as fast as possible.
i'm sick of HTC green logo white screen "Loading..." everytime i hit Home button or return to any of the homescreens from any app which takes 5-10 seconds to finish
in the same time i dont think it worth going to sensation XE to benefit from the 0.3Ghz CPU power
u could try launcherpro and keep homescreen in memory. This should help make ur homescreen snappier.
There is a fix for that add this line to the bottom if build prop
ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1
Had same issue this sorts the issue

I can root and do all fancy stuff if that speed things up, been playing with my HTC hero in the past and loaded all kind of stuff with it.
after rooting which ROM do you recommend? read another thread talking about sense 3.5 would it be better? I'm a huge SenseUI fan, actually can't live with it
Sense 3.5 has its perks one thing let's it down is the video sound its horrible
Sense 3.0 is old but its solid n video sound is great if u turn stero sound off
But its all down to personal preferences

Hey guys, I though we can do some list of known issues in latest 1.45.401.2 HTC official base. It would be good idea if later as many people as possible can report the complete bugs list to HTC so that they hurry up with the update and we'll make sure they are aware of all the issues so that they wont be present (hopefully) in next build.
Confirmed issues:
Broken 3D engine,
Bottom dock edge is not smooth (for all 3 skins),
Language issue: (Polish) In HTC e-mail app after selecting unread message the button "Oznacz jako przeczytane" (Mark as read) have text cut in a half,
LMW.apk is missing by default so we can't use "Make more space" in SD card settings,
The phone doesn't always register first power button click to put the phone on standby. It has to be hit twice for the phone to drop to standby,
Zooming in a picture in gallery and pressing the back button doesn't zoom out to the original level,
Phone is embarrassingly slow and choppy as for Dual-Core 1.2GHz device. Especially scrolling through widgets is very laggy,
Phone is getting warm even when scrolling through the desktops,
Not confirmed issues:
Other things to report:
Still missing correct kernel source for 2.3.4 ROM,
Write you suggestions and propositions of better description to the issues. Also report your language issues like missing translations etc.
Nice post Mike, the RUU has been on shipped ROMs for the past week but my broadband has been down
Had the HTC reps in work a few days ago and got one of the guys to esc the 3D issue to their tech/dev team with a detailed description, hoping for a fix soon

This is very good news Lee, hopefully they wont brake anything else lol. Do you have some suggestions for the list?
Not sure if it's an issue but scrolling in whatsapp conversation is unbelievably choppy and laggy.
Hell even if the GPU wasn't working, the dual core should be able to handle it. But no.
Really weird (My HTC G2 is 10x smoother).

After sending a message,you turn off the screen at once,and then it powered off.
It has happened for many times,but i am not sure if it is an official issue.

Mate Ninja Fruit on my Desire HD ROM runs perfectly smooth but on Sensation ROM (the same tweaks as for Desire HD ROM) is lags like hells. Yeah... "amazing dual core 1,2 GHz to provide even better multimedia experience"
Just uninstalled it, played on my nexus s and no problems, tryed on my vibrant and no problem, am talking about the cordy game, it totally makes tbe sensation crash worst than an underclocked kernel

Is there no way for these to be manually updated?
Or would it need a whole new release by HTC?
When you zoom in a picture in gallery and press the back button it doesn.t zoom out to the original level. In music player side scrolling in albums tab does not work.

Yes, you can flash libs from 1.35 base but only with custom kernel. But it's not a fix, just a temporary solution. It must be fixed by HTC.

Can you explain better? Can't reproduce it...
double press power button
I confirm the issue with having to double press the power button to wake up the phone sometimes. Did not face this problem with earlier builds
I have been trying to cook a rom but i have no idea what to cook. I am very familiar with everything.
Can someone please help me generate some ideas?
Easy, check the Dev forum here for the S4G and cook something no one else has.
Instant success.
I'd like to see some of the better parts of Sense (I really like the weather lock screen and the Friend Stream widget) blended with CM. Just a general idea.

+1 like sense camera with Miui or cm7 rom would be absolutely great. Maybe even Rosie. Combine sense and cm7 /Miui. Beats, or something that really boosts headphones volume while maintaining/boosting audio quality.
Port TouchWiz over
Port a xperia build.

People in development section said the same thing but I'm not sure if it possible to mix them like that. A lot of the other and better cookers would have already done it.

I'm talking about trips Miui. Equalizers and such don't work very well.
yea it seems to be difficult. The main problem for me is that I really hate the camera app. The sense cam doesn't work cos it needs the sense framework. If you manage to make it work with the framework of whatever base you use it should work. I tried it but my comp picked a nice time to pack up. And it'll be a while before I get it working again. I love the sense and arc cam apps. With one of those working on cm7 / Miui ill have a rom I can settle down with an xperia port would be nice as well good luck with your developing ill help where ever I can.
I need to get a new computer as well more than 7 years old running on 512 mb of ram not a real thrill.
I'm going to try touchwiz as of right now and see where I go.

hi...........
i used many ICS sense 3.6 roms and in all rom i have noticed a lag while playing a 720p video..........and games also have video lag...........
how to solve it ????????
please help
I haven't seen this bug, however I would guess that with the system still being Beta, this has something to do with it.
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e using XDA App
Yeah it's probably due to the 'beta status' of the ROM's.
You might just have to wait for the final release for it to be fixed.
but even 2 mb games gets stuck on this versions
It could also be to do with the qHd of the screen. I know this sounds rather strange, but if you try using a game such as NinJump, you'll find that the application completely locks up. This is due to some applications not supporting the display and I would certainly double check that this isn't the issue you are experiencing.

For video games, disbale force gpu option in development setting.
It depends what you want, but custom roms tend to be better. You have almost unlimited support and the freedom of being able to switch to and from New features.

is skype working in htc sense 3.6 ????
I've got a question where i can't find the answer to when i use the search-option on this site.
I have a HTC Sensation XE, all recent updates done.
When i'm browsing the web and i push the home button i allways get "loading" on my screen. (For about 10seconds). How come the phone seems to be slow when i do that? Is it a problem with HTC Sense? Will it run faster on Go Launcher or is there an other solution for my problem? I like the apperiance of HTC Sense so would prefer to keep using it . If anyone has a solution i'll be happy to read it.
Thanks in advance
Best solution would be to flash a custom ROM or root it at least and change a line in your build prop to prevent from doing what you describe.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA App
I think that happens when Android automatically kills HTC Sense as it needs more memory.
Using Golauncher might solve it. Or you could set the built in task killer to be more aggressive.

Depends what ROM you are using, I think on Gingerbread you could use the Spare Parts app but not sure.

To do so i must "root" the phone right ? Thanks for your reply.
No, you don't need root for the spare parts app. There should be other apps on the Market that do similar things too if Spare Parts doesn't work.

Most of the time my phone is very fast indeed
It's just when something is loading in the browser or when you're playing a game (Angry birds in this case) and i push the "home" button, than i have to wait a few seconds until the home-screen is loaded. You can also see that the clock settings (24hrs) reload at that time. (clock is displayed first in AM-PM-mode)
Greetz and thanks

Spare Parts didn't solve my problem. The white screen with HTC logo appears sometimes followed bij "loading" on the home screen.... Of anyone had an idea to solve this.... I'll be welcome to hear...
I removed antivirus app and now its seems solved
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e using xda premium
There is actually a thread on this because I was able to explain to the person why your phone in fact does this..
A lot of the time you will unwittingly have a few browser windows open, each page you have open roughly uses about 10-40MB of RAM depending on the rendering, flash etc.
When you hit the 'Home' button, your phone doesn't actually close the web browser. It just puts it as a background application. The chances are that your phone doesn't actually have enough RAM to switch from the Browser to Sense and so it kills sense and reloads it.
Custom ROM's do not have this problem as they have RAM optimizations, however I'm sure if I opened 5 windows and opened YouTube in every window then hit the home button, that I'd have the same problem.

For now it seems fine. Removing lookout anti-virus made everything faster I tried to make it happen again but phone stayed smooth and fast. I hope it stays this way now.

It just happend again. To much apps open and it happens. I will try moving apps to internal memory as it would help Android closing them to free RAM....
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e using xda premium
With too many apps open it happens again. Must be a memory and closing sense-problem. Is there no possibility to select programs like Sense and 3g-watchdog to remain allways open? Movings apps back to internal memory seems not possible with the software I've got....
It doesn't matter where the apps are, it's just the stupid RAM.

Im not sure whether this has been mentioned before, but i found that the long press delay for the commonly used characters like "?" and numbers take too long of a press to get it to pop out..
