[Q] getting a sensation

hi everyone i have a wildfire atm and getting a sensation in the next few days and wanted to know a few things. i will be rooting and s off (already done this to my wildfire) butwhat i wanted to know is what is the most popular rom, atm im using cm7 latest stable on my wildfire (cant find it for the sensation) and i like it.

There are loads of sense 3.0 n 3.5 Rom they are all different in there own ways best to try a few there is 2 miui roms that I'm aware of and there also is 1/2 aosp Rom there is no cm as google not released source so waiting for source but 4.0 will prob be out shortly so up to u to decided buddy

Cm7 beta is on Sensation
No phone has proper ICS roms atm.
Apart from some SDK ports but none for Sensation.

I just got my sensation as well. S-OFF was petty easy.
I am using HD Evolution 3.6.3 and It's petty stable and fast. I just downloaded some fixes for the 4G and APM from here = http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18245560&postcount=23227
Hope my post is useful.

Don't worry about S-Off or unlocking the bootloader on the Sensation. HTCdev.com has that covered for you (I'm sure you knew that).
As far as ROMs go, I currently flashed the stock ROM back, and that's what I'm using... for now.

i didnt know that my friend thanks for pointing that out to me whats next apple giving you the software to jailbreak your phone/pad .

I wouldn't use the official HTC method. Use Revolutionary. CM7 is in Alpha right now, but it's pretty stable and good enough for daily use.

Should be located in the development subsection under HTC Sensation.
If you wanna give Sense a spin, and want stability, I'd recommend trying out Pyramid 3D.

The method on HTC's site looks similar, but I haven't found any posts here referencing that site. But, I would also like to know the ans to your question, for when my phone arrives.

found the ans to my own question after a lot of digging around it dont look the the htc way fully roots the phone more like just gives you enuff permition to make apps for the phone

Best supported ROM?

What's the best supported rom?
Is there an MIUI one?

Pretty much personal opinions. Why not read through the forums in the Dev section and make a selection.
I'm on Insertcoin currently but have tried quite a few before settling on a couple.
YMMV

There are a few. Miui releases every two weeks or so, ARHD, InsertCoin, Pyramid 3D, Senseay, and LEEDROiD release pretty frequently.
I would say ARHD, InsertCoin, and Pyramid are currently the best supported right now. I'm running Pyramid.
Sent from my HTC Sensation

I would agree with ARHD,Insert Coin updated regularly -its depending on what you are looking for Miui is just getting off the ground but the official version you can update through Rom Manager makes it sweet CM7 is also starting up my personal daily is Insert Coin if your looking for a stable sense Rom I would also Recommend CoreDroid V2.5 updates are slow to come but when they do they have little to no issues the thread is organized and easy to understand and most of its members are there to help

insertcoin gets updated daily sometimes lol

I'll get round to doing it soon. Thanks guys

Pyramid 3D is the best ROM for the Sensation! Great battery performance, super fast and stuff! And often updated!

I would second that. Its added features are very useful and its performance is top notch. Dev for it is pretty cool too. There really is no perfect rom and I feel like how it is installed can make or break its performance.
I would advise you to try them all out and then settle down. Don't waste so much time flashing, it's really a waste of time when all will probably work fine. And don't always go with the newest versions. Like for instance, I've found ARHD 3.11 to be the best one as far as performance for that rom.

I prefer ARHD too!

I've been on ARHD for a lot of time, now I'm testing DARK SENSE ROM.
Wonderful, stable, everything is working fine, with Sense 4.1
I'll say it's like having a One S in my hands now. :good:

Elegancia is the best and get updated....very fast ...

Google for HTC Sensation - Android 4.0.4 Sense 4.1 Firmware (based on stock Ville C RUU 2.31.401.5) by Mikhei777
Is a very nice real HTC-stock-feel ROM, that's currently supported 24/7.
No tweaking tools, no custom themes/icons, based on original HTC pyramid-ics-crc-3.0.16-31a4fc7 - just a pure working HTC Sence 4.1
Weird, but this guy is not on XDA

He is on XDA but XDA dont like him
But i dont know his past

Team Venom Roms
Team Venom support their ROMs very well. Not many updates recently because they were working on their 3.0.0 ROM but I'm sure that will be getting updated as frequently as their previous ROM when it was being developed.

Awesome news! Let the cooking begin!!

sebastian is gonna make babies with this

we have forced them to release it and they have done it anyway thanks HTC! you rock

I dont think the kernal will help with sense 4 as we need the source for HTC One S for that.
It does however mean custom kernals for ICS with better performance/battery life.

Ok but with correct sensation drivers devs can hack one S "rom?" to communicate with senny drivers, i think

Fantastic. This will accelerate CM9 by a lot.

Seeking a good GB ROM

Hi,
I know this is an odd request, but I'd like to go back to a Gingerbread ROM, but it turns out GB ROMs are hard to find these days as people have moved on to ICS and JB. All the links I've found are dead. If any of you possess a good GB ROM, would you please share it with me? I like sense, so I prefer a sense ROM. I'd very much appreciate help here.
Thank you,
GT

I am also looking for the same thing as well .

I can get you ARHD back when it had Sense 3.0, oh the memories! And CM7 too..

I have been seeking sense 3.0 GB ROM too, I got my hands on the latest ARHD GB ROM but the navigation bar has jagged edges and its a pain to find a fix with link that aren't dead. Does anyone have a GB ROM that has a smooth navigation bar?

[Q] HTC Sensation 4.1 ROM

Which is the most stable 4.1 for our HTC Sensation up to this date? Thanks

I'm not allowed to post links to other forums but I found out that the Mikhei777 sense 4.1 rom is the fastest and stabliest one with all features working. You can find it on DroiDevs forums

Most stable is Elegancia
But stop with these threads please
Try yourself all sense 4.1 rom and find which is the best for you !!!

Thanks for the response. Is Mikhei777 sense 4.1 retains it's original 4.1 looks? I have tried Elegancia ROMs but it seems like it's fully themed and integrated all those special tweaks. Yes, Elegancia has the original-look ROM but still, it's fully tweaked. I was hoping it was like ARHD ROM. Sorry, I am not against themed ROM, but I think not that very obvious.

Do you guys really think mikhei777 Rom is that good? I'm on it now an it seems to offer barely any more stability, and definitely seems a little slower.
My favorite has been Elegancia v5.0.0. It seems the fastest, and all the new versions did was make stuff unstable and add stupid features.

So.... did you try any of the ones that were recommended? I am really looking for a good 4.1 Rom. I bought a sensation from a friend and it came with Cyanogenmod (10.1 I think )... way too laggy, stuff kept shutting down, took forever to go back to the homescreen when pressing HOME... so I tried one called SuperXE... supposed to be super basic, and it is... maybe a bit too basic... it did improve performance a lot compared to CM but still feel the phone should run better. I came from a stock Gingerbread Inspire 4G (with bloatware and all)... and the sensation seems way slower in comparison. I've been considering going to ICS on ARHD, reading tutorials and how to do it but to be honest I'm 1)too much of a noob to tell if that can be done without any problems since I'm already on jellybean 2)afraid I might brick the phone.

flashing a rom won't brick your device
just put the rom.zip in your sdcard and flash it from recovery
and before flashing a rom
1)make a nandroid backup just in case
2)full wipe from recovery

I recommend that you try ViperS 1.6.3 or Elegancia 7.0.0 since they both the best sense 4.1 rom which provides great battery life and specs. But like always, please make an backup in recovery

In my opinion elegancia 7.0.0 is the best rom based on sense 4.1. It looks like stock sense in every way and it has got very good performance and battery life
