Help ARHD - HTC Sensation

Just updated to lastest version.
When I press power off, it reboot instead of shut down.
What should I do?
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio using XDA

Re-download it and flash it again.
Do you have any mods installed like LeeDroid Tweaks?

Thanks for your help first
I install the LeeDroid Tweaks just after flashing the ARHD ROM without reboot....... Is it wrong?

I usually don't install any extra's before the 1st boot but hey if it works it works!

Another problem appears
The temperature remains around 40C(104F), How come?
(using Faux's 002 kernel ) setcpu: 982Mhz

The processor is being overworked for some reason. Also, SetCPU causes problems with Faux's kernel, you really shouldn't use it...that could be part of the problem. Another part is that you are lowering the device's max CPU threshold, which means it takes longer for your phone to carry out simple tasks. For a different CPU controller try No-frills CPU instead.

Yes, SetCPU is for SebastianFM Kernel ... and works very well ...
Try to flash again with SebastianFM option during install, for me work very well with or without SetCPU settings ...

Great! After No-frills is installed, the temp gets back to 30C. However the temp really is higher than stock Kernel. Is it normal?

I wouldnt worry too much about that, 30C isnt too hot.. The phone is bound to heat up if you are playing with the CPU speeds. Plus running a custom Kernel, And even a case can keep the heat in..
Providing it doesnt get hot to the touch you should be fine.

My sensation starts to warm up... 40 degree again..
I worry about it because some energy loses to surrounding through heat, thus battery drains much faster.

40 is still normal. But if it worries you too much. Try sebastians 1.30.2 1.512ghz kernel. You can use setcpu to clock it down to like 1ghz or 1.2 and see if it works for you.

The processor in the Sensation is the same one that is in the Amaze. This processor is designed for 1.512GHz. On the Sensation, HTC underclocked the processor to 1.2. Increasing the clock back to 1.512GHz is not a true over clock, it is restoring what the processor is designed for.

go into power or battery I don't remember... then uncheck fast boot
and use system tuner instead

The only time you should be worried about the device is when it gets between 50-60C/122-140F. Even then it still isn't high enough of a temperature to harm the device.

XE and Sensation uses the same CPU?!! Got it
I flashed a new kernel-Faux123 ~
How to use system tuner? it sounds difficult..

Have you installed it yet? Everything is pretty much self-explanatory. Undervolting also help the cpu run cooler. Mine is undervolted -100mV. Very stable.

Installed
After I adjust the voltage in system turner, then...hand & restart.
1000mV for 1.51GHz, ok?

New problem found!
The fauxclock always gives a error message after adjustment...even underclock.

Running both cores

I'm on insertcoin 4.6.1. With sebestians kernel and I'm using setcpu to 1.6 MHz and I read it turns on both cores, will running both damage my phone?
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using xda premium
Don't think so, will most likely just drain power quicker.
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio using Tapatalk
Running both cores would heat the phone up even more since you're running two cores. Also our cores are asynchronous so it isn't in their "nature" to run simultaneously. So I wouldn't recommend it.
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio using XDA App
setcpu does run both cores. I noticed when i flashed a new higher kernel and im running full max on cpu my phone over heats. I also did a benchmark test on max and it resetted my sensation. When i set the kernel cpu lower other than max not only did i get better test results but i had no reboots or lags on the rom.. and thats on setcpu
I agree its unnecessary. I get a bunch of fc's then reboots start as my cpu overheats and cuts out.
So what cpu tool do you recommend? I'm also using SetCpu.

System Tuner Pro. I've found this the only tool that makes boot settings stick when running ics.
I agree. I use Rom toolbox myself with sdbooster and. I set my CPU on Rom and boost my sd card up. Play around with it and do some antutu benchmarks..good luck.

Also, you're running ICS, which is optimised for dual core performance, so leaving our cores the way it is should, be just fine.

[Q] CPU speed??? :(

can someone please help me with how to speed up my cpu speed? im new to flashing roms and i just flashed the android revolution hd 6.6.5 with beats audio but my ghz still says 1.2??? is there a app/tool i need to speed it up?? sorry for the noobie question!!!

Overclocking implies increasing the CPU clock speed (more cycles per second).
Overclocking helps increase performance my overloading the processor thus, everything runs faster.
This can however cause phone hardware to ware out faster and cause overheating problems also.
our cpu can handle 1.5 ghz of clock speed. by default is set at 1.2.
the overclock is speed up the cpu above the maximum speed (es 1.7, the maximum stable clock we reached IMHO)
obviously high speed means less the battery, more heating and you risk to damage the cpu, because the frequency is above the max. limit
I personally keep it at 1.2ghz for daily use and at 1.5ghz for gaming, you should find you settings...
take a look to the governors, too. they are very important to control your device's response and speed. search for a specific guide to understand better
thanx allot to the both of you!!! helped me out heaps. Ill play around with it

Not too much. 1.2-1.6 is the safe range at most lower 1.7
Don't use an app.Do it naturally with a kernel use a faux v006.

ok can u post a link so i can download??? thanx
Make sure the kernel is compatiable with your Rom and firmware! You can find then either in Android development, or themes and apps. Try development first. Good luck! remember over clocking can be more of a battery drain, just so you are aware of that. Have fun!

Google faux kernels and you will find them o.k.

I would not recommend using setCpu it will not give u the best performance.
Use a kernel which is already overclocked and it will be much better. I recommend faux or bricked with that rom.

Consider yourself lucky. No matter what rom/kernel/clockspeeds I use I get in the 40s with screen on, 60s when Web browsing and up to 70 when really stressed. It gets noticeably hot obviously. I'm inclined to think mines defective. All temps in Celsius. Yikes.

HTC Sensation 4G CPU gets really hot.

My Sensation is running OrDroid 9.0.0 Sense 4.0 Rom. It gets warm/hot when using simple apps like facebook, messaging, Youtube, etc... I had this problem since last year too. I got my Sensation since August of last year.

Don't do gpu over clock then.. That will cool down your device a bit.. Also.. Try some under volting the kernel (there is a uv mod.. You can use that) .. It prevents heating a bit too

I'm not overclocked though. I'm on the standard frequency, 1.2Ghz. I'm also on bricked kernal if that helps. What does decreasing the voltage do, or what voltage should I have?

You should try that for yourself because not every device can handle every voltage decreasing the voltage makes that there is not so much electricity going trough the CPU you save battery and your battery is not overheating so fast

Thanks. I installed UV mod, the CPU still gets warm, but not as hot as it used to be. I'm going to try the experimental if it works better.

Mine did too with both stock and ARHD roms. Thought its the battery getting getting warm for the longest time but it turned out to be CPU/GPU. I'm using Viper S now and do not overclock CPU/GPU. Works well and heat is down significantly. Still gets warm occasionally (GPS, Browser, Google Now) but not as much and battery last longer.
I tried Vipers S Rom but everything ran VERY choppy and what govner do you recommend to get that cold GPU/CPu effect?

When you try different ROMs and have query ask in the right ROM forum. You'll have a better chance for a right answer.
There isn't a tremendous amount of things you can do to bring down the temperature significantly. As everyone said, under volting, and under clocking can do a little bit.
It isn't a big problem, because it shouldn't pass, from what I remember, 43-46 degrees Celsius. Of course it will vary with what your doing, playing games will make it hotter, especially if you are in a hot environment.
Don't worry too much about it.

[Q] Best Kernel for Viper 1.5.2

Sorry for posting it here, can't post yet on Viper's main thread, (and yes I am a noob)
1. Just wanna ask what is the best Kernel for viper 1.5.2 (I dunno what are their descriptions/effects for each kernels)
2. do you have to make a nand / apps backup first before changing kernel?
1) I'm running Elegancia with PYD Kernel and it works great
2)No i dont do a backup
After you flashed Kernel Just wipe dalvik
Envoyé depuis mon HTC Sensation Z710e avec Tapatalk
Always make a backup. It takes 4 minutes or so and might save your butt
I'm using latest faux (find it in the viper hub or in the link at my signature) it's great. But a kernel choice is really a personal thing as no two of us use the phone quite the same.
Nandroid and try. But keep the same kernel for a few days, otherwise you would not get the real taste of it.
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using xda premium
First off, you should make a nandroid just in case something goes wrong during installation but if you don't all that you loose is your current rom install. I rarely make nandroids but thats not to say its not recommended, I just enjoy living life on the edge
My favorite kernel for any Sense rom is SebastianFMs Kernel with Axetilens MOD.
Flash your ROM
Flash the Powerful Kernel Reset Tool in Axetilens mod thread
Flash SebastianFMs kernel
Flash the mod - It uses AROMA so you will get to pick and chose all your settings, if you are unsure what to pick most have recommended or default next to the options so you can't go too wrong with them.
He recommends flashing the mod twice just to make sure everything sticks. I always do but I guess thats up to you.
My settings are:
1566mhz on both cores
Performance Gov. (not the dual core option, the third option is what I use)
Underclocked 87mv
300mhz GPU (320mhz could cause stability problems and benchmarks show it doesn't help performance one bit so its a waste of batter)
200mhz 2D (again, anything higher than that is a waste of battery as benchmarks prove that anything higher does no good)
The strictest option for min free settings (I haven't noticed any differnce in load times for the defualt setting and the strict one so its a no brainer to me)
Zram disabled as I have a 512mb hard swap
I have been running this setup for about a week and its still running smooth and fluent. Battery life is incredible to say the least. I'll post some screenshots because quite honestly, you probably wouldn't believe me if I told you in text.
Good luck!

Always make a backup! The kernel is personal preference and nothing more. I have tried all the kernels with viper and didn't have any problems. I don't use viper anymore but when I did, I preferred anthrax, not for any particular reason. Just try each one and see what you like and what works best for you.

Actually, having the 3D GPU overclocked from 300MHz to 320MHz does increase 3D graphics performance more than you think. Increasing the 2D GPU's clock from 200MHz to 266MHz also increases 2D graphics performance substantially.

I honestly don't know why people feel the need to rebuild the Dalvik cache after installing a new kernel. The kernel isn't installed to the Dalvik cache's partition, so not wiping it when you install a kernel will have no effect at all.

Well according to the benchmark tests done by Anthrax, they don't do very much at all, if anything. I barley notice a difference from 1188 to 1566, it really depends more on the rom.

On-demand
Noop
ZRAM
My heavy games are preety smooth now...how I achieved this ?
- Download kernel tuner from Market
- go to Thermald Section
Increase all the frequency to Max or U can Set my settings also...
THRESHOLD LOW
Max freq- 1188
THRESHOLD MEDIUM
Max freq- 810
THRESHOLD HIGH
Max freq- 648
LAUNCH NFS...IT'S SMOOTH NOW...
If it still feels laggy, Increase all the frequencies to your Max Frequency(means if ur Max freq is 1512, then set to 1512, in my case its 1188)
P.S. I'm never Using OC, cause I'm battery friendly guy and yes I'm getting a very good Battery life also

You can't tell which is the best kernel it depends on your choice and usage but in my opnion i am on faux kernel using ViperS 1.5.2 and its running smooth for now and no problem.
Bricked kernel is also good but gives random reboots...and antrax is totally a mess reboots,reboots and reboots...
Nand backup is not necessary but you should make bcz i got a problem with bricked kernel when i change the Governer from lagfree to Performance my phone reboots ,reboots with in 1 mint and even i cant open my phone....as a result full wipe and flashed rom again...
SO its up to u.....
