Ok so I have a T-Mobile HTC sensation 4g and am running elegance Pegasus sense 3.6 the latest update of the 3.6 Rom. Randomly my phone just shuts off, not often but enough to miss some calls. What could be causing that? And does anyone else have that problem? I love the Rom. It runs smooth and has a great battery life. When I switched back to stock tmous Rom the random shut downs stopped. Maybe it's a kernel issue? Any suggestions on a kernel to use maybe with it. I tried faux already. Any suggestions or maybe a new Rom to use would be helpfull. I'm looking for speed, stability and excellent battery life.. thanks guys and gals.
What is your kernel?

I used to have random shutdowns on Sense 3.6, and over time I realised it was a issue with how sense was measuring battery life....
as in I would have my phone on 80% battery then it would reboot and show 50%......Then I switched to the Elegencia sense 4 rom and I haven't had that problem since...
but if you still want to use a Sense 3.6 rom, you should try charging your phone completely....then goto recovery and wipe battery stats and cache + dalvik...( if its a problem with battery calibration that should resolve it)
If you want to try another kernel you could go for Sultan....works quite well with the sensation
Wiping battery stats does nothing. At all.
It might be that the contacts on your battery are losing the connection to your phone. A piece of paper taped to the top of the battery might help.

I DIDNT CRACK/FLASH MY PHONE SO PLEASE POST ANY LINK TO PROCEED
i want these apps to work without force closing:
camera like HTC AMAZE
phone calls
HTC SENSE 3.5 (i dont want it like SENSE 3.0, it will restarts every time i uninstall any app)
GTALK WITH VIDEO CALLS
WITH MORE BATTERY LIFE
Bluetooth with audio output
For what you're after I'd have a look at the InsertCoin ROM

What does crack/flash mean. It's S-OFF'ed right?
I would recommend Bulletproof. ARHD eats batteries, and when I was on InsertCoin it was slow and camera FC'ed.
Bulletproof if you want a Sense experience. That ROM is very solid and under appreciated. I like to bounce between Bulletproof and CyanogenMod.
Sent from my CyanogenModded HTC Sensation 4g.
I have to say its Bulletproof for me at the minute, battery life is brilliant compared to any of the others I have tried.
Ok so, I hope this doesn't in terms become a thread jack but, I had recently installed Andorid Revolution HD by Mike and it had it's ups and downs for me, but I wanted something else. My friend had recommended that I try out cyanogenmod, which I did, just flashed it last night. Now the major difference I've noticed is, no HTC sense and very empty, which I liked because it gave me a sense of room to customize my phone more.
The only problem I'm having is, when I had the Revolution installed my battery was much more signficantly better than it is right now. I've done battery calibration and I've had it drop down to at least 25% and then I went to full charge last night. Today I used the phone to drop it down to 38% and then I went to full charge and this is all without any phone calls. Just text messages and Facebook, anyone know what I can do to improve battery life?
Btw what does FC means :X

FC = force close. An unexpected/abnormal termination of the application.

Underclock your cpu there is no need for 1.5 really
Use juice defender to manage your connections, (turns them off and on when screen off and on)
Try different kernels
Keep screen brightness down
I find all roms don't report battery stats totally accurate, more so in cm7 builds,
Bare in mind sense 3.5 is in beta
And...
CM7 is still in alpha
If you want perfect builds you'll be waiting a little while
I find insertcoin the one with least errors
But I've not tried bulletproof I will do tho tonight

You just flashed it, expect your battery to be really bad for the first four cycles or so. Fully charge and discharge at least three times. Once it stabilizes, your best bet is to exercise battery conservation practices, like Juice Defender mentioned earlier.

I've run ARHD for several version, I switched to InsertCoin and really like it. Runs a little hot on my phone with bricked kernel. Truthfully I'm waiting for an official release of cyanogen mod. Any ideas when that will be?
Oh alright, I'll give Juice Defender and Bulletproof a try as well. Yeah I do understand that CM7 is still in the alpha stage.
In terms of "best roms for sensation," what makes CM7 so much more popular? Or all the available roms out there like InsertCoin, Revolution, Bulletproof are just as popular but it depends on the user preference?

I'm trying to calibrate after flashing a rom to get better battery life and I'm using Battery Calibration to do it. So far I've only flashed 4 roms since I first got my Sensation, ARHD 3.6, MIUI, ARHD 4.1.13, and now at my current rom, Virtuous Inquisition v3.5.1, which is amazing by the way, and my battery never stops showing a charge even after charging it all night. I was able to calibrate successfully after flashing ARHD 3.6, but not after 4.1. Is there a way to fix this? And if buying a new battery is they way to go, do you guys have any suggestions? Thanks!

can anybody recommend any roms or mods that will help my sensation gain excellent battery life? ive tried multiple roms on gb and ics and still have had no luck. more recently ive tried ordroid, android revolution, and aokp build 37. with multiple kernels and the xxxpachaxxx-take-batterylife mod and still no luck. i can average about 9-10 hours with moderate usage but i really am looking for about a full 24 hours. is this even possible? ive had multiple phones in the past and there were a few i was able to gain excellent battery life on. for example mytouch4g on a few miui and cm7 roms could get me almost 36 or more hours, now i did keep data off when i wasnt using it, but im doing the same for my sensation and still no luck. is there anyone out there who has any recommendations or answers for me. i realize that not every chip is created equal but this is my second sensation, did i just answer my own question??? thanks in advance
hi,
Did you try ORDroid rom? I think is the best rom in terms of battery life/performance.....
I'm sorry if this an offence to anybody but with my experience it is not. Try hypernonsense for battery.
Also I've seen a mod in the dev section somewhere which brings about good battery but a large sacrifice is required, if you chose the power saving option that is. It only ever has one core running I believe at 1.5ghz ( the processors' true power ).

Check out one of my last posts.there's a link to a very useful battery guide. It helped restore my battery "life".
Also, newer phones use more power. Extended batts. Help this but eventually it will take new tech.nuclear powered phones would last a while.
I'm using a 1900mAH anker battery combined with virtuous inquisition 4.02 gives 24 hours easily. In fact my record was still on 62% after 24 hours
No other ROM comes close. You have to upgrade the battery though as well, which is dirt cheap for the anker.
Definitely up grade your battery ! I use Anker. It's much better than stock! When you switch from rom to rom, go into recovery with 100% full battery and plugged into charger, wipe battery stats from recovery then unplug charger. This will help with the battery life. Hope this helps you. As for Roms I'm currently using ordroid but the best battery life I ever got was from virtuous inquisition, likely because its a SENCELESS rom, I missed sence so I changed over to Ordroid. I wanted to give sence 4 a try. It's a give and take depending on what you want. If you don't care for sence and only care for battery life V.I. is the way to go. Hope I helped you

I'm currently using android revolution hd 6.6.5 and for my needs the battery life is fine.
I have to agree that with OrDroid my battery got drained a lot faster so I switched back to arhd Rom.
I have been on VI as well and it looks slick, mega fast and the best battery life of them all only I found a few bugs and switched back to arhd.
Still I'm used to sense now and ARHD is just the nicest Rom out there for me atm but that's just my opinion

I am running Elegancia ICS Sense 3.6 TMOUS_Edition_3.0.0 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1663665) using the Bricked v1.1 kernel and am getting about 26 hours with light use and 18 hours with moderate use. In this day and age of power-hungry smartphones, I find this to be quite good!
U may use Faux's kernel on IntelligentDemond gavenor, it has good performence and long battery life.
Hey Guys,
Tomorrow I'll go on vacation. I won't have data connection there except WLAN sometimes.
Right now I'm unsure what ROM I should take. I like both CM and Sense4.
Which ROM should I take:
-ViperS (former Pkmn) or
-CM9
Which one is more stable, has a bettery battery life or has a better performance?
Ofcourse I'll take bricked kernel
ViperS is a new ROM, so not much Information is available, but maybe you could compare it to the Pkmn ROM or any other good Sense4 ROM.
I don't care about 1080p recording. I don't need 3G, cause I don't have Data anyway. I just need it for normal GSM calls and text messages, games and sometimes Wifi.

My post is about the same xD I'll suscribe to this thread too
Maybe you don't like sense 3.6, but the ARHD 6.6.4 is a very good Rom
in my opinion CM9 is still buggy and far away of a stable state..
and my batterylife is better on sense based roms..
but in the end it depends what you like
Viper has given me excellent battery life! I was amazed. 3 hours in I was still at 100 ! With lite use but my other roms would drain lite use or not. Very suprised at the battery life. Id choose viper for battery.

Hi there what's really best is to try them for yourself and see what you like. For me, I like viper because my battery life is good and it has tons of customizations! I mean tons! You can change everything from boot image to CPU to tweaks its really a lot of fun! But that's my opnion, try out and see what you think! Best wishes! Hope this helps

i would of liked to use gingerbread from CM but i cant find the download i know it seems weird because ICS is available but i prefer gingerbread is there a light weight rom i dont use the phone much as i said above but id like it to have decent battery Aker 1900mah battery on the way.
You can still get decent battery life out of ICS roms by using different kernels and certain CPU tweaks such as a slight under volt. Some kernels have battery saving script written in to help. Also some kernels have mods to either help over or under volt and some help save battery. Don't just limit yourself to GB.take a look At ics kernel options. The battery life is tied to kernels more so than roms , so if you get a good kernel for battery life you will see it makes a big difference. Also you can slightly undervolt . I do this myself. It does help.do these things and combine them with your extended battery and I think you will find your battery life is where you want it to be. I really hope this helps and I wish you the best. Also by the description of what your wanting I think you should try virtuous inquisition. It is sence less and offers supreme battery life. I really think that will meet your needs.
That was the first Rom I ever used and its extremely stable. It is ics but it fits the description of what your looking for perfectly. Give it a try I think you will be very happy with it.
