[Q] Hearing a click when exiting camera

Try this: open camera, take a picture, and when pressing the back button to exit the camera put your ear close to the phone and can you hear a little "click"? I can hear it from my device, and as much as I can tell, it's mechanical, not from the system or any software.
This doesn't make sense unless there are moving parts associated with the camera hardware.

yes....i can hear it... and it was there in my DHD too... something related to camera lens hardware.....i feel so

I heard it in my previous phone too (SE Vivaz, piece of ****, but the camera was awesome! (Also 8 MP)) It's something with the camera hardware (probably)

Have you never used a non-mobilephone camera in your life? It's simply the camera adjusting focus, or rather resetting it when you close the app. Older phones can't do this, the Sensation can. There is effectively a mechanical movement.

It happened to my Dell streak too. It 's not a problem I think.

Screen calibration "contrast/gamma/white-grey balance"

I am bit of a junkie when it comes to screen calibration and have spent most of my days researching about the technology on that part, so i am in the need for something to help me calibrate the screen on the sensation as there are a few things that are inaccurate which i would like to correct.
Is there any app or mod that i can do to adjust this on the sensation.... any help would be appreciated.

It's called screen adjuster in the market
Sent from my Sensation using XDA App

Does this app run in the background to modify the screen or does it physically change it perminantly??
Still no gamma adjustment which is probably the most important feature needed.

I would really want this to.

I think it runs in the background
Sent from my Sensation using XDA App

Yes it does run in the background but does no offer values that are required to fully calibrate the display properly, contrast and white balance values are not quite enough... Need to source a type of hack to modify values manually or mod etc etc.

I love to have this app as well because my screen shows it's over saturated. To much red

That would be great to have ability to use ICC profiles with Sensation and generate them with color calibration software and iOne.

Is there any way to change these values in the kernel directly? Using this app slows down my Gallery for example. If I switch between different images by sliding them I can clearly see a delay on the screen.

I need this app too!
Do you think with an app like de desidered one would have also better black?

Better black is a hard one to achieve as the deepness of the black is mainly down to the screen, led screens black are a lot better compared to the LCD screens in sensations. My girlfriend has a galaxy s2 and I envy the LED screen on it, the colours compared to the sensations LCD screen are amazing.

Rom help!

Hello,
I have mine and my wives sensations s-off and rooted and both running the latest Android Revoluttion 3.5 Roms with beats. My phone is fast and everything works great, apart from very occasional black screen freeze and lock up. Quick battery removal/restart fixes it. But the wives phone lags, freezez, loses WiFi. What should I do to fix it? Tried reflashing the Rom, but to no avail. She wants me to make it s on and remove root. Any suggestions before I do?
Thanks

Just redo your wife phone ,use superwipe from mike thread .
Ps, this should be in Q&A
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA Premium App

What radio are you using? Is the the new ICS leaks you are using?
You might want to ask stuff like this in sensation Q&A dude. Many people including devs might not appreciate this post in the dev section.

P.s don't remove root. Its like going back to stone age
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio using xda premium

reflash with the full super wipes and if it is the ics rom, its only test version so don't expect it to be perfect. if all else fails, swap sensations to satisfy her

un-root it. your wife sounds like mine. they don't care and they don't want you messing with their phone.

Thanks for all the replies. I super wiped, redownloaded and replaced 3.6.11 AR ROM, and reflashed. So far so good. If it starts acting up, ill just remove the root. I dont need the extra nagging!

[Q] video graphics lag

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.

thanks.......can u do me a favour and tell me that..........ARE CUSTOM ROMS BETTER OR THE OFFICIAL ROMS IN USE

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.

[Q] HTC sense slow on Sensation XE ?

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.

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.

I will have to look hoe i can do that.... And how do i know wich line to change to get the problem fixed..... Sorry bit i'm new to Android...

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.
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e using xda premium

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.

I'm afraid do.... Would replacing Sense with another app solve this problem ?
