Kernel for insertcoin ice cream sandwich - HTC Sensation

I have recently rooted my sensation and installed the insert coin ice cream sandwich rom. However there seems to be a bit of lag while using it
Has anyone else noticed this, and know.of a kernel which works with this Rom, so I can increase the CPU frequency?
I have tried the standard xe kernel and the bricked kernel 1.4 but whenever I install them, they either do not work. Or my Rom gets held on the bears audio screen and does nothing else. This also happens when I attempt to install a theme from xda!

InsertCoin ICS Rom
The lags and other bugs are all well noted on Baadnews' forum as you will find. The ICS Roms are all in beta stage at the moment and so far as I am concerned, there is nothing you can do about it for now. Maybe in the course of time, improvements will be made.
If you want a "perfect" Rom I'd say stick with any of his gingerbread roms for now. I flashed the ICS but after trying it for tow days I decided I could not live with the kinks and went back to gingerbread.

Ahh okay. Thank you

This is because the ICS kernels are built on linux kernel 3.0.13
We have only kernel source for android 2.3.4 which runs linux kernel 2.6.14
Therefore no custom kernels will work with ICS at the moment

Hi,
The thing is to flash mods using the same base as your ROM.
If you check my sig , I have battery mods for ARHD base 2.3.4 and 2.3.5
Check with your ROM'S dev,to see which base you are using,and then flash the appropriate mod.
ALWAYS MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP BEFORE YOU INSTALL A MOD
For beats I installed THIS MOD ,because I am on base 2.3.5 using Sense 3.5
Or you could install ARDH 3.6.3 XE which contains beats anyway.

You can install anything you want, you just have to know what it is you want to do. Lets say you want to have beats audio (using the previous posters example). You know you have a stock ROM, version 2.3.4 most likely, so just find a beats audio only mod for 2.3.4 bases running Sense 3.0.
Or, as the previous poser says, you can install a whole ROM that already includes it. ARHD basically simulates a Sensation XE by removing the under-clocking on the CPU thats there stock bringing it up to 1.5 Ghz, adding beats audio, and overall just smoothing out the ROM. It looks the same as the stock ROM, it just works better.
The best thing to do is just make a backup of how it is now through recovery, then try stuff out and see what you like. You can always restore your backup and it will be right back to how it was before you did anything.

EDIT: Saw you came from ARHD. Sorry to hear about the bad luck. But yes, you can install mods without a full ROM.

Yeah I did tried 3 of the most recent arhd Rom, it is smooth and fast but has too many glitches on my phone. I tried installing the recommended radio it does fixed my signal issue, but after 3 days of using my phone keeps goin on a black screen when somebody calls me or text me so I decided to revert to stock

Interesting. Did you try turning the CPU back down to 1.2 GHz? I have ran 3.6.1 and only had one reboot before I switched to the beta kernel, never had any issues with 3.6.2 which came with the same kernel I upgraded to with 3.6.1, but I switched to bricked 0.91 kernel and its even better. Tried 3.6.3 and had a bunch of FC problems and issues so I restored back to 3.6.2.
Basically they all have worked well for me, but I've read of some people needing to stay at 1.2 GHz because of problems you have described.

I haven't tried restoring to 1.2ghz , I just restored my phone back to stock I got tired of trying all the versions and seems all of the versions I flashed had issues on my phone, don't get me wrong but I do love the speed and smoothness of arhd its just those fcs, unstable signal and not to mention the black screen issue. But like you said I haven't tried using different kernel I just used the one that came with the Rom and the other faux kernel that one of xda member suggested the beta 10. I even tried the insertcoin 3.3.9 and same issue with signal. I'm on tmobile carrier I don't know if that causes the signal issue with most of the Rom I flashed.

Well, I'm on T-Mobile also and have had no issues, thats strange. Did you flash the recommended radio also? Maybe you need to try a different one if so.
I really like the Bricked kernel, it runs faster/smoother and the battery life is better than the Faux kernels I used - at least what I've seen so far. I run Sense 3.0 so Im limited to Bricked 0.91, but its still plenty good from what I've seen. He is developing more for Sense 3.5 kernels at this point I think.
Anyway, if it was me, I would try one of the ARHD ROMs with a bricked kernel (the kernel can also affect your reception I believe). If you still have issues, try clocking it back to 1.2 Ghz. I too ran IC for a little while, but finally just settled back to ARHD for a few reasons.

Currently running ARHD 3.6.2 with bricked 0.91 kernel at 1.5 GHz and the mods in my sig with whatever the recommended radio is in the ARHD thread. I have no issues and use it quite a bit every day. I might give 3.6.4 a shot though.

Hi,
Have you tried a custom ROM with the original radio?
I know it won't be matched,but sometimes it's a needs must situation.
Use the radio that will give you the BEST signal.
It might just be that it's the only one that will work properly in YOUR area.

Hi,
So,what combination of ROM and radio was the best for signal?
And with your current set-up,do you ALWAYS have bad signals?
Or does it vary from area to area?

I have an HTC sensation for tmobile I just recently got it and noticed it was already rooted and it seems to be running great but I'm afraid of flashing another Rom on it all I want to know tho is will I be able to get the ics updated even tho its rooted??
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio using xda premium
You'll want to flash a modified ICS rom instead of waiting months for a carrier update. You might get OTA updates if you're stock rom + rooted, but if it's a custom rom, you won't.
Seriously though, don't wait for your carrier to update your phone, they'll add their **** to it and ruin it.
Yeah I'm just gonna wait for a good stable ics Rom then flash it I never like waiting is there any u recomend?

ARHD 6.0: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14192842&postcount=4
ARHD 3.6.13 is a Gingerbread ROM compared to 6.0 which is an ICS ROM.
ICS Senseless ROM
I really love the Virtuous Inquisition ROM. It is an ICS based ROM without Sense and has the appearance and features of pure ICS.
You can find it here.
It is very stable and has great battery life.

[Q] Questions regarding kernels

I can't post in the Dev section yet, so I'm posting here.
Can I use this kernel with ARHD 3.6.13 (Android 2.3.4)?
How do I reduce the clock speed of this kernel? I want my phone to run @1.2GHz because overclocking drains battery.
Thanks.
the first kernel you linked at, which it the Bricked kernel, can't be used on gingerbread, it's only an ice cream sandwich kernel.
as for the second kernel, faux, you can change it's clock speed by using set spu from here
if you update your ARHD build, to ICS, then you may use bricked kernel on it.
i hope this helps.
I'm using the bricked kernel now but. I'm 4.0.3. Once you upgrade to Ics or 4.0.3 you will be able to use it. But its for Ics or 4.0.3 so you have to upgrade from gingerbread first. Hope this helps.

Miui Support Thread with roms and so..

Thought I would share this modified Miuiandroid.com sensation rom.
I am not a dev, just want to have some good miui roms out there, Blackwing already made a very nice Aosp rom and this is the Sense based with some modifications.
Yes its the Sense based Miui, I just modified it.
Its multi language and version 2.6.16.
Slimed down moving not needed trash + some apps...197mb instead of around 267mb.
Working Miui V4 Themes, also SMS, Phone and statusbar. Credit to a guy at chinesese forum, dont know the name in english.
No dissapearing icons after returning to homescreen.
All credit to Miuiandroid.com -> I just trimmed and edited it for my needs.
Running it right now with Sebastian Sense kernel. Flash at own risk though and so on.
Edit: the included in rom is stock sense kernel

just rooted and S-off, wich ROM.... ?

I just rooted my Sensation XE and got it S-off. :victory:
Installed Rom Manager and Titanium backup (backed-up everything).
Now i don't know wich Rom i would use....there are so many...
I want it to be stable, i use Go Launcher instead of Sense because Sense had the ennoying problem it was closing to free memory when i was using a load of memory. In Go Launcher i can select it to remain always open.
I would like a stable ROM wich keeps camera, bluetooth etc....all working without problems.
In addition of this question i would like to know if i can just remove Sense true titanium backup from my phone without problems? (on stock rom or other ROM ? )
I hope i put this thread in the right section 'cos i'm not used to using this forum yet
Thanks in advance for every reply :good:
You should seriously try Virtuous Inquisition very fast and stable. It's running Android ICS. But I don't know if you installed the required firmware. If not, do so.
Oh, and it's an AOSP Rom and it's senseless. Everything works fine.
Were can i find that rom and info about the requierd firmware ?

You can find the required firmware specs on the developers site of each Rom. I highly suggest trying out SEVERAL roms and see which one fits you the best.

So do yourself a favor and try out SEVERAL! Have fun and happy flashing

In my opinion Android Revolution HD us the best rom I tryed, Mike does not use portings to ensure maximum stability and speeds... It comes with sense 3.6 bit on the thread he provides a script to completely remove HTC Sense...
It has a completely stock look... It's just optimized and updated.

What are you all retarded ?!?!?!? You gotta go aosp!!!! CM9 is the best choice only retards and crackheads like sense overlay (all offense) lol
I must say that on factory ROM i was using Go Launcher because Sense got closed sometimes when I was using many RAM. Reloading Sense always took a bit of time wich I found annoying. The downside of using go launcher was the loss of the HTC widgets... Go contacts wasn't so good in my opinion. In my current ROM Sense didn't close once so for me it's perfect. It looks very beautiful and it's faster than ever before.
