[Q] Sensation with Revolution HD Glitch, please help.

I am running Mike's Android Revolution HD based on HTC Sensation "non-XE" HTC base ROM and am experiencing a strange glitch. I would have posted this in the developers section but I have under 10 posts.
I have a Rooted S-OFF Sensation running this ROM and it works very well, exept for one thing. When my TMOUS Sensation's screen turns off, I normally can just hit the top button and the unlock screen comes right up, but sometimes, the lockscreen does not come up and I am forced to pull the battery on my phone. This happenes about once every couple of days. I have tried wiping and reflashing to no avail.
Please help.

Hi,
Which ROM are you running,and with which kernel?
Clean install,upgrade,what have you wiped before you started.
You need to provide some more information,so that you can get the correct help.

Info
Mike's Android Revolution HD based on HTC Sensation "non-XE" HTC base ROM 4.1.6, I have tried wiping using Mike's Superwipe and reflashing this version (Newest version) twice, same issue, I am running 2.6.35.14-Sensation-faux123-v0.2.3r+ Kernel and my radio version is 10.58.9035.00p_10.15.9035.02_2. I flashed the newest radio listed for this ROM, oddly, it is suposed to be 10.58.9035.00u, I use T-Mobile so that could be affecting it.

Hi,
Thank you.
There are known issues with that kernel.
I suggest you try the latest kernel,which you can find in my signature.
Go into recovery,
Wipe your cache partition and dalvik,
Flash the kernel,(exactly like a ROM)
reboot and enjoy.

Flashed newest Faux Kernel.
I flashed the new kernel, and I also flashed your battery mod, looks great btw
One last question, isnt my baseband suposed to be U and not P? why does it say P despite the fact I flashed the newest one for this ROM? and will it negatively affect performance?

Hi,
Glad you like the mod.
Those letters in the radio just refer to the carrier,and do not affect the performance in any way.

Thanks!
Awsome, I really really apprechiate it.
Thank you!

hey shenoka.. how is it?
I am really annoyed with this rom... I used it for my desire hd and never had a problem with it.. since I started using it on my sensation mike screwed it up massively... He is too stubborn to use the bricked kernel which rips on the faux rubbish that he is using now. I switched over to insertcoin because of this massive stuff up. So many people have complained about it and it took him this long to fix it if he hasn't already. The faux kernel is a joke and has always frozen up and have to be rebooted on me even especially in the morning when u expect the alarm to go off but the stupid faux kernel doesn't think it should go off.
And this same problem was happening for me on the de version so it definitely has to do with the kernel.
Anyways enough of my frustration has been let off about this rom. How is the new 0.2.5.2 kernel? Because I know that the 0.2.3r was rubbish for me and still did the stupid screen not turning on. I'm not going back to this rom until I am certain that the kernel won't do this same thing again.
Also has anyone noticed that with this rom u also have to sometimes fight to turn off the screen because it turns back on when u only click the power button once? Doesn't happen on insertcoin.

Why so much hate for 2 devs that are giving their wares away for FREE? There are numerous posts (today & yesterday even) on the development thread discussing how this happens, the fact that yes it is the faux kernel that has the bug, and how to install bricked if you wish.
Your frustration is understood. Isn't it nice to have so many choices of ROMs/kernels for your phone for free? I think these devs deserve more respect.

[Q] Android RevolutionHD 6.02 ICS - Minor Issues

Hi all
big lover of all things xda and have been using the site regularly for all my htc hero, desire and now sensation roms. I love how you can nearly always find the answer to any question or problem you may have in this excellent forum. Hence not having to ask any questions before and not being able to post in the proper developer forum.
I have just flashed ARHD 6.0.2 ICS (from ARHD 3.6.8) on my sensation and it runs okay, but not nearly as smoothly as 3.68. There are 3 key things that I cannot seem to fix. 1) Go launcher pro and a few other aspects of the rom are pretty laggy. I've tried forcing GPU in develop options and a few other things 2) Apps launch immediately, but the settings page and any option within it, waits at least 0.5secs before opening. and 3) If I go to settings\applications\running tab, I get a FC and it says "Unfortunately , Settings has stopped".
These 3 things are enough for me to go back to 3.6.13 for the time being, but Im loving the little ICS touches, especially the new gmail app and would love to keep it.
Has anyone else had this behaviour? Any thoughts on a remedy? I installed the updated firmware, and did a superwipe, all as required.
All comments much appreciated.
Cheers, Dom

Hi,
6.0.3 is due today,and it will have new kernels.
Maybe a more stable 1.5 GHZ version
This will certainly iron out any lag.
Worth waiting for ,before you jump ship.

How to reflash back to ARHD 3.6.12?
How do you re-flash to the ARHD 3.6.12?
Do you just flash Superwipe, flash radio and flashback again with ARHD 3.6.12?
As simple as that?
I also already flash the new ICS. I love the new ICS, but for now I prefer use the ARHD 3.6.12 because it is more stable. I have a doubt in reflashing back again to ARHD 3.6.12. Is it as simple as that?
Please assist me.
Thank you in advance.

Hi,
Yes,Super wipe and reflash.
The ICS firmware and radio will probably work well with 3.x.x
You may need to change the RIL to suit your area.

Thanks malybru, I'll try 6.0.3 when I get a chance. I've not flashed an RIL though, arent they included in the rom if you flash the correct radio? My signal does drop from time to time, and re connects when I change from 3g to gsm and back again. Different radios don't seem to fix it.
pefenky, yes as malybru says, that is how you would go back to 3.6.12 (or 3.6.13 now). Next time though, if you have a stable rom running. Do a clockworkmod backup and then when you flash test roms you can just go back to how it was before if you dont like the new one really easily.
cheers

Which ICS rom is best???

Looking to get a few opinions from ppl that flash multiple roms to their devices. Looking for something that is stable, not overclocked, and has the least amount of reported issues. Thanks in advance!!

i am currently using insertcoin 4.6.1 and it is very stable and fast also without overclocking it

Android Revolution HD is great, very fast, very stable and I've had no issues so far.

The Android Revolution HD ICS is a really good ROM. I just recently flashed it and love it. It's fast and stable. I performed the benchmark test with the ROM and came up around 2900-3000 compared to the previous 1900s.

I will second Insertcoin. The only issue is the inbuilt WiFi tether being broken, but I believe that is an issue with ALL current ICS roms. Barnacle works wonders.

Flashing Android revolution as we speak.. I thought it was supposed to give an option to select 1.2 or 1.5?

InsertCoin and ARHD are both extremely popular options. My suggestion is to try them both and see which one works best for you. Give each one a few days to get the kinks worked out and always make sure you do a full backup and Super Wipe every time you change ROMs!

I had the same thoughts as you when I was using Clockwork Mod to flash roms, it never asked anything about the install. Now, I use Touch Recovery and I have yess/no options when I flash roms now

Its really difficult to find a fully compatible ROM for your phone, as what happen to mine tried the popular one which i got a lot of issues some people not, so I tried other. Every ROM's claiming fast/stable. To be fair you can to try each for yourself which I did and happy with what i have now. Different people have thier own choices depends on what their need. Go out and explore there now 44+ ROMS you can narrow down which is more popular and depends on their feedbacks. Goodluck.

If you would like to try non-sense I recommend miui v4 or either CM9 kang. I've had zero issues with either.

ENERGY ROM is very stable, fast, and also lightly themed...... overall an extremely smooth ICS ROM...give it a try....you wont regret

blackICE is the best from all aspects
bigpercaso has created a ROM which is the best by performance stability and on top of all the ROM is themed so beauty ................

Stock from RUU install. Been running this since latest Ruu was leaked and having no significant problems. Very close to a release candidate!
Make sure you are s-off and super cid before trying!

Yeah, it will ask you but only if you have installed 4Ext recovery instead of clock work mod. In my experience 4Ext is a much more complete recovery.

Virtuous Inquisition 3.0 was working perfectly for me for weeks, 3.5 is a little buggy but 3.0 is just brilliant (No Sense ROM)

But super cid is not needed.
No issues so far and hotspot works perfectly.

insertcoin rom is the best for me

I've been running Android Revolution HD 5.3 since January. This was my first experience with a non-stock android device as I bought the device configured in that way. I was very happy with it, but couldn't get HTC Sync to transfer my contacts and found it a little laggy, other then that it was great. The best advice I was given to fix my issue was to reload/update the ROM. Mike actually uploaded his latest version 6.4.0 while I was downloading 6.3.1 so I scrapped that and went with 6.4.0 since it was based on the Final HTC RUU 3.32.401.3.
Its only been a day so its not much of a test, but so far its way better and faster then the old ROM even when it was fresh. HTC sync worked flawlessly. the response time is as close to instant as you can get. You need to use 4ext recovery to have the option to use the 1.5Ghz kernel or load the Sony Bravia engine. I chose both options and have seen no issues, only improvements.
Like everyone said its really your taste so try out a few varieties, just remember to superwipe between them else you might find bugs that aren't really an issue with the ROM but because you didn't clear all the old data.
All the best and have fun.

[Solved][Q] HyperNonSense ICS v1.2 Lockscreen light flash

Hi,
since i can't post to Android Development Thread, i have to ask here.
I have installed V1.2 over V1.1 without Superwipe. All is going well.
Not using my sensation, i noticed that the lockscreen light is turning on for about a second every few minutes.
Does anybody have this issue ?
I will try a superwipe and fresh install to see if its gone.
Greetz
Daniel
PS: Thanks kristofpetho for your great work. I'm using your ROM since Android 2.3.x versions

Hi.
I'm not having this problem but I super wiped. Also I use the SebastianFM's kernel. meby that has something to do with it.

Solved
It has gone after Superwipe.
Thx

Transparent app drawer/tray?

Hi, I have spent almost three days browsing trough the Sensation forum hoping to find an answer to my question, and I couldnt find a sufficient one so I decided to register and make a thread, Im really sorry if I somehow overlooked the answer, and if this thread is in the wrong place. First of all, thanks for all the people making guides for rooting as I have just rooted my Sensation Xe two days ago
Im currently running Android version 4.0.3, Android Revolution HD 7.3 XE, kernel SebastianFM and all I "want" is a transparent app drawer/tray (or at least a custom background, I hate the plain black one) and also, if possible, transparent background in the settings, notification bar and other menus while retaining the original (stock) look on everything else, by which I mean not using any custom launchers (nova, apex, etc). I tried flashing some of the Rosie modes and with some of them I got just a little bit of transparency, while with others it just crashed. Once again, sorry if this has already been answered, or there is a similar thread, but I really couldnt find one. Thank you very much for the answers

I would suggest you give this ROM a try it is fully customizer-able to how you want it to look and feel much easier than modding the files yourself you need special software to edit the files and also need to be quite knowledgeable in Photoshop ect...

First, Wrong Thread my friend, you should ask this in QA section.
Ok, Now your Solution is ---> Darksense Tweaks...It offers Transparent App drawer only with fix Transparency rate..it doesn't offer you custom background, though it looks nice on it.
Please do a Backup of ROM before flashing any MODs/Tweaks.

Dude, LeeDroid tweaks has that tweak.
Download here
Flash it like you flash a rom, under HTC Sense tab you can change App Drawer transparency, colours and use a background image if you want, isn't it exactly what you want? That way you can keep AHRD

@MidnightDevil That sounds about right! I will try that right now and see how it goes, thank you very much for the help.

I just flashed the LeeDroid tweeks, and when I boot in the phone Im constantly getting a pop up saying "Unfortunately, HTC sense has stopped" Do you have any clue on what could be wrong?

Try to clear the data from HTC Sense Input (settings - apps - all apps), also, what recovery are you using?
Either way, I don't think the S-ON has anything to do with it, that's more related to kernels and stuff.
That's unexpected because in the thread where addons are listed, Leedroid's there, although for 6.8.x versions, but I remember using it on the 7 series and worked fine.
You can try however (if the problem persists after clearing HTC Sense Input data), to reinstall the rom without wiping (you would still have all your apps and config, and tweaks would still be there).
