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.

What arhd version you using and kerne so maybe I can try and use itl? I believe mike suggested to.flash it with the radio 10.58 which I did and it made my signal stable but few fcs and blackscreen so I reverted back to stock.

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,
I've just switched my son's Sensation to a 3.6.2 + 0.9.1 bricked kernel.
He 's very happy with it.

Hi,
You really are having no luck...
Can I ask:
What was your signal like when you first got your phone out-of-the-box?

I'm always either 3 to full bars, I barely get 2. Even when I restore my phone to stock using the stock RUU signal is good. I'm on tmobile us carrier I don't know I'd that matters on my case

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.

I did tried the stock radio at first but signal goes from 2 bars to no signal so I decided to use the radio that's been suggested by mike for his Rom.

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 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.

Is a Ics bricked kernel for sense or a nonsense Rom.a orc bricked kernel is a sense kernel correct?could someone please explain how to tell the differences.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA
No, I saw Bricked only for Sense.
For the difference I do not know the exact changes. Probably in the driver files and settings for HTC made stuff.
Thanks that good to know so basically bricked kernels are only for sense roms.

Yes, correct. For more information visit: http://bricked.de/
That's not right I ran a bricked kernel on cm9 nightlies and that's a aosp Rom nonsense.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA
This does not mean that you can not run CM9 with a sense kernel.
I ran CM7 with a sense kernel and vice versa on my desire - but that combination was causing issues and depending on ROM - freezes.
But for the Sensation it is a bit different - I remember CM9 with the stock ICS Sense kernel running, so maybe bricked is universal, you should ask the dev

The developer of the bricked kernel has yet to release an aosp kernel... So if you infact did flash his kernel on an aosp ics rom then it was either his aosp gb kernel, or his sense kernel! Either of which will likely not have full functionality! So you come here and asked questions and receive the answers and then tell us we are wrong...
I'm sorry I was not aware that you can run a sense bricked kernel on aosp roms sorry.and that's for the information.

Is it true that a Irc kernel is a sense kernel?what does Irc and gb bricked kernels stand for?and as of now bricked kernels are some what universal.

Is there a OC kernel that is compatible with CM9 RC1 for HTC Sensation? please let me know! thanks!
Try Bricked Kernel (AOSP version):

Tamcore also has a good aosp kernel. You can find it by going to his nightly page in vorbeth's opensensation thread.

How do you install it? I mean im used to installing kernel's by just installing from zip and selecting the zip file. this one gives you a bunch of options. what ones do I select?
simply let the most on recommed or default and give it a try...
Faux made a pretty good one as well. With bricked I starting having problems with a few games that worked while using fauxes kernel which is old as bricked iced the gpu which would make me think games would run better.

Ok... So i just flashed the new Mik version of sense 3.6 ics... And I'm slightly confused. The kernel version shows 2.6.35... Is that a modified GB kernel or a fully ICS kernel? A friend of mine said it's modified GB... And if so what makes it GB? (wasn't sure if this belonged in Dev or general so posted in general lol)

I believe that GB is all based on the 2.X.X series of kernel, whilst ICS and JB are coming from the newer 3.X.X series. There were quite a few changes in the mainline Linux kernel around this, which I expect is also true of the Android kernels (since they are very very very very similar).
If you haven't already then you should try CM9, it's based on ICS. Might not have the SenseUI stuff you like, but I found it to be an incredibly smooth OS.
The Sense 3.6 Kernel is a modified GB Kernel, just like the poster above me said. Most of our ICS Roms all have 3.0 Kernels. MikXE can have a Virtuous 3.0 kernel, but it has not been built.
