Best kernel for better battery with long hard usage - HTC Sensation

What kind of kernel would you recommend for a 4.0.3 Rom with sense 3.6?and also what kernel no.

Try them, everyone feels differently about them. Honestly, I don't notice a realistic difference between any of em, so I use stock.

You can't tell a difference o.k.

I am by no means an expert in this and fairly new myself,however in my experience the cooks have done a pretty good job of matching the best kernels to there rom's. Some even have multiple ones to choose from during installation.

As with anything else results are going to be different from one phone and user to the other. Read the forums,use the search option first before you post a question. Lots of times the question has already been asked and answered. When you find something that has helped you,use the Thanks button. Have fun!!

so far the best rom and kernel combination for me is insertcoin 5.1.8 and bricked 0.55-b5...on ultra light usage(1h screen on,mostly standby) i get as much as 4 days...
and with heavy usage it lasts at least 1day...
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e

i tried 3 most used kernels, with 3 most used roms. i choose bricked with arhd. also faux can be chosen.

I use Faux Kernel, it's best kernel in my used.long battery life and not lag performence.

what is the difference between sense 3.0 and 3.5? and which one was on the stock sensation 4g?
3.0 came on sensation 4g
i think that we needed a new platform to support these new senses 3.0 and 3.5
InsertCoin is the best ROM for the Sensation hands down. Performance and battery life is outstanding.

This is funny!
I would say you try by yourself and decide for yourself, Everyone has different opinions and will probably give you their own personal perspective.
You might have a different opinion and like something else or maybe not. just flash the most used ones and see if you like them and go from there.

I agree with this guy here as opposed to the other two members. I've tried BOTH roms listed and they're basically the same. Just very ever so slightly different. I used to use ARHD but then I started using other roms because Mike doesn't update his often. InsertCoin gets updated pretty good but I experience issues once in a while (it's nothing severe though) and it's not a bad rom at all. I'm using bulletproof though because I love all the mods he adds on. It's really up to you, gotta try and find out what you want and like.
Agree that it's up to you to try, test, tune, etc what's best for your needs & likes! Take a deep read in the Development section...happy flashing!
CM7 is the best rom on sensation by far.
CM7.

I started using custom ROMs with my G1 and CyanogenMod. I stuck with that exclusively for a really long time through different devices. Since it has taken a while for CM to come out on the Sensation, I started flashing all kinds of different ROMs. That's the beauty of Android and XDA. You can try all kinds of stuff out and decide what you like the best. I currently use Android Revolution HD 4.1.3 (Android 2.3.5, Sense 3.5) with the Amaze camera. I'll use this until a stable version of CM comes out with a better camera. I also use ADW.Ex launcher. This works for me for now because it has a really nice camera, but I've tried a TON of ROMs. Whatever you do, ALWAYS search for answers, use the appropriate forums (General, Q&A, Themes & Apps) properly, and have fun.

Cm7. If I want a sense buzz I'll go with bulletproof 2.15. You can't beat those tweaks.

I checked the following thread and made my decision: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1200118
I don't want to give recommedations since there are a couple of awsome mods floating out there...
If you like Sense and eye pleasing colours and animations go with CoreDroid. Wipe battery stats when you flash a new rom (made a big difference for me).

New user from Mytouch 4G forums

Hey everyone tomorrow morning I'm getting my sensation and can't be more excited.
Just wanted to say tomorrow I will be rooting my phone asap
Any suggestions on some good starter Roms?
This forum is 100 times larger and more active then the mytouch 4g forums

awesome bro i remember seeing you in those forums I too switched
as for roms depends whether you want sense or not
MIUI is perfect AT this moment. based on the HTC ICS Base so you get both the camera and everything else working.
Official HTC Rom like ARHD, coredroid etc - Stable and fast rom with Sense 3.6(personally dislike Sense but you can install a mod to make it just like stock android, look under themes and apps)
CM9 - video camera doesnt work so well, bluetooth no go,
sense 4 - camera not so much with no autofocus, but almost good enough
I suggest - ICS stock rom with HTC base. like hypernonsense

I came from mt4g and found the sensation easier to root. I am running coredroid on the mt4g and on my sensation. The mt4g is for my son, he bought one off a kid at school for $20, because the kid didn't like the battery life. I am real happy with coredroid on both phones. Just make sure to go through a few battery cycles before judging any of the roms, most will break in and give great battery life in a few days, at least in my experience.
+1 for ARHD - its the most stable, the most fastest and the support is amazing.... (IMO)
I highly recommend trying it out. Throw in Sebastians kernel and having a Full day AND a half battery wont be a rarity any more.
there are a lot of guides on how to flash it, Its the most popular ROM, The guides are fairly simple, and if you dont like it, flash to something else
Welcome Im from the MT4G forums, aqnd im a flashaholic so i say try them all currently im back and forth between HyperNonSense v1.5(discontinued) and OrDroid Sense 4.0

Best &fast Rom on sensation

Help guys please I need fast Rom and very stable on sensation
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using xda premium
Try a few out and see what you think but personally I like lightning Rom, its fast and stable. Every one has different opnions when it comes to these things so I highly highly recommend you try several out for yourself to form your own opinion. I personally like lightning because it is very fast and very stable and has customizations and over the air updates that don't require a computer to flash when a upgrade comes. Also your notified when a mod or upgrade is available which is nice because not everyone has the time to search to see if a update is available. The instructions for updating are on page one of development. I have had no force closes or reboots or freezes.it is sense 4 Also it comes with the newest sense 4.5 camera and burst mode works properly! These are some personal reasons I choose lightning.however I still suggest you try out several so you can form your own opinion.this is what I did. I've tried almost all ics roms. However everyone is different and opinions differ . It all depends on what you want personally. I wanted something fast yet stable with customizations. So again try several then make your decision.we are lucky to have different options for different tastes. I really hope this helps. Happy flashing!

Is all a matter of opinion but yes in benchmark scores lightning is faster than viper.at least it was in the benchmark I took. But give both a try and form your own opinion. Is always best to try out for yourself and to see which Rom is best suited for you're needs. People are different and opinions are very different so take a look and try them out for yourself. I'm sure you will find what meets your needs. With so many great roms to choose from! Best of luck to you! Happy flashing

Hello everyone

Just switched to my millionth android phone, coming from a t989, picked up a sensation. Looking to eventually root and find a clean stable ROM. Looking forward to some suggestions, maybe tips and tricks.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using Tapatalk 2
Hi and welcome! You can take a look at Sensation general forums and they have the rooting guides there. Also look at sensation android development and the roms Are there. Before anything you need to know your h boot version in order to find the guide that is correct for you. In order to find that you pull out your battery, then place it back in and press your volume down and power button at the same time. A screen will come up with your information. On top will be your h boot version. Write it down. Then you can find the correct rooting guide for your boot version.l read through the guide a few times. I suggest to even print the guide out so you can refer to EVERY step with ease . I did this and trust me it helps a lot because you can't miss a single step. Before you begin familiarize yourself with the guide. It's worth the effort in the end. Before you know it you will be S-off and rooted . I do suggest you also S-off because you will have more freedom later and be able to flash a lot easier. This is my opinion. I'm S-off. S off is like security off . Since your rooting you might as well soff also. The guide will tell you how. I hope these tips help you out. And I want to say again welcome. Best wishes!

Thanks for all that awesome information, I'm very familiar with routing and s-off and all that. To be honest,I underestimated this phone. I have never seen so much development for a phone and I'm kinda overwhelmed with all the roms, as to which are popular and stable and the latest.

I've got to say, I had 3 Amazes, this is my first sensation and I like it so much better, but I can't quite pinpoint why. It feels great in the hands, I love the groove asking the glass, and the thin-ness of it. I know speed for disc the amaze is suppose to be better, but this phone is real nice.
One thing I notice, it seems a little longer, yet a little more narrow as far as the screen goes? Maybe it's just me, coming from a 4.52 inch screen

Just checked my hboot version, it's 1.27.0000 so I'm going to start looking into the easiest way to perm root my sensation and see which ROM is best. Viper seems like the most popular.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using Tapatalk 2
You're right, viper is the most popular, but that's probably because team venom does so much work with sense and they have devs for a lot of HTC devices so they get things done and put a ton of features, by the way, be careful on juopunut bear. I know you've had the amaze and you've probably already done it, read everything very carefully because you do not want your new phone to be bricked
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using Tapatalk 2
For ICS ROMs I'd have to say ARHD is by far the fastest and smoothest. Cm9 wasn't bad but I still find it laggy and buggy even in final build. I won't mention jellybean because you said you wanted something stable and I take that as no betas . Good luck and just remember that if you get s-off and super cid you will save yourself a lot of trouble with incompatibility issues.

REMEMBER TO HIT THANKS IF I HELPED YOU IN ANY WAY, IT'S POLITE AND APPRECIATED.
If you to try a sense rom really close to vanilla ICS I would go with virtual inquisition. I used it for many months, it was really good battery life was great. But development has seized for that rom.

Hi guys, my question is this: What is the most experienced ROM Battery saved? I understand that every phone is a different world, but in general concpetor ROM which is noted for being durable battery. I have the battery in stock and now I'm in JB MIUI v4. Thank you all in advance.

You should try out several different roms and see which works best for you. If your looking for jelly bean I personally run Paranoid Android by Dragun korr. With his new kernel 3.0.52 many people are reporting excellent battery life. Myself included. There Rom is very stable and has a lot of customisation available. Every one is different with there likes and dislikes but I'd give this a try and see what you think about it. If you search you will find most people will advise you try several out for yourself to see which is best for you. I Hope this is helpful and wish you the best. I don't think paranoid Android will disappoint. But give it a try for yourself and see if it suits your needs. I've been very happy with it.

How many hours is your battery life on this rom?
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e using xda app-developers app
Check all ROM threads. Half of users cry for bad battery life and other half are happy with excellent battery life .
In short, the results are vary widely across users of same ROM. Try all ROM urself whichever you like and check results. It won't take much time to flash ROM and net it run for few hours.
I know that just answer the question for us to be noticed
