Clock drift issue - HTC Sensation

Hi guys, I'm using Virtuous Inquisition 4.0.2 with included sebastianFM kernel on my sensation..
my main problem is that the clock always lags behind, there is a 1min drift every hour, enabling auto network time doesn't fix the issue, sometimes i notice drifts of up to 35min.. is this a kernel issue? or an htc base issue? or something else ?? I want to solve this issue without using 3rd party apps like clocksync. could knowledgeable person help me out with this one ?

did you try to clear cache of the app from settings?

I always clear the cache using cache cleaner...doesn't affect the clock at all.

I don't think he meant the 'cache', maybe data, dont know.
As alternative you can try clocksync from the market and set it up as you see fit. I know its a workaround but nothing comes to mind that could cause that issue.
You could do several things to test , does the issue only happens on that rom? Have you tried another kernel?

The previous sense roms that i have used never had the issue.. i really like aosp, so much faster and smoother than the sense junk, but the clock inaccuracy is annoying.. i hate clocksync because im not always near a connection.

MidnightDevil which kernel would you recommend to try with Virtuous inquisition? i tried the faux 008b4 kernel but it made the phone not as snappy and fast as with sebfm..although i don't know if it fixed the clock, because it was before i found the issue..

You will need to use it for a while to see if it happens again, even if you reflash the kernel you were using before, the idea is to try to figure out what's causing the clock lag.
Now, answering to your question, since Virtuous Inquisition is based off sense, I'd say either SebastianFM, Bricked, Faux, Grogg, Sultan's, JMB or PYD-X would work, just have a look and see which one behaves better on your rom I'd start by Sultan, but I haven't been in the kernel spree for a while.
Also, backup before start switching, just in case
Let us know.
PS - Have you tried HyperNonSense ? It's also AOSP look and those kernels would work on it too. It's a little more updated then the one you're using atm.

I just flashed the faux kernel.. same problem the clock start drifting after a few mins.. i didnt try hypernonsense yet.. hate flashing and reconfiguring settings... Titanium backup messes things sometimes

My mistake, no issue with faux yet..the clock is not losing secs, hope it will stay this way

ok, looks like the faux kernel fixed it. not having the ridiculous 1min drifts per hour anymore. issue solved. sebastianFM kernel was the culprit. :laugh:

[Q] Rom comparison chart?

Hi,
Is there a ROM comparison chart somewhere for Nexus S?
I'm looking forward to a ROM, which is:
based on 2.3.4.
has a notification power widget.
has 3G SIP calling.
(sort of) stable.
fast.
Some nice to have features:
Lock-screen tweaks.
Battery percentage hack.
Permission management.
Any ideas?
CM7 nightly seemed to be a good choice, but it freezes time to time.
I am using infin1ty. Solid as a rock and fast too.
I think it fulfils your wish list.

Thanks for the tips! I've just flashed the latest infin1ty.
There are some nice touch, like working Video Chat and a nice Battery icon, but two things bug me:
Skype crashes
Seems laggy to me a little, even laggier when CM7 nightly.
I'll keep trying it and we'll see...
Balázs
I've been running Infin1ty for a few days, upgraded to the new version this morning and really no lag on my end. Hated the battery icon so built a new one in UOT Kitchen and now it's looking good.

i played arround a bit with the cpu settings (No-frills CPU control) and voltage settings (proton) and i got a really smooth fast and stable rom. so just give it a try
I prefer CM7 never had any freezing issues.
I use with ogdobber 2.3.4 kernel

The current CM kang coupled with morfics UV kernel is running so incredibly fast!

Just give them all a test ride and see which one you like best. I'm on superasop ATM and so far it's been the snappiest rom I've tried. Still not perfect though.
It has everything in your list though.

Use benchmark in the android market.
Just to give this a bump as I'm looking for the same thing as OP but would like to know more about what everyone thinks. I m on cm7.0.3 atm and its really frustrating how it restarts out of the blue or gets into a bootloop. with the features listed by the OP, which rom is the most stable?
Good idea...
SuperAosp has been really, really good to me. I did an original wipe and reinstall a month ago, and it is has been really good and snappy ever since, even through non-wipe upgrades to ROM.

I'm using ZuluZulu rom, fast and stable. Tried lot of cm based roms but this one is almost no random reboot like cm.

I've just flashed SuperAosp. First impressions:
Really nice icons and theme.
Nice animations!
Video chat is nice, but it works only one way. I can see both myself and the called party on the phone, but the called party cannot see me on Gmail. Might not be related to the ROM, though.
ROM Manager is crashing. I can live without that app, though.
Very laggy. I expect the operating system to react immediately, but sometimes it lags for 1 sec or more when the system is busy. This is most probably due to I/O scheduling issues.
I'll probably give other ROMs a try as well.

I've tested ZuluZulu: I flashed it, factory reset, set my accounts up, started to restore the Apps with Titanium Backup, and all of a sudden, it rebooted.
My first impression was that it is a pretty responsive ROM, but somehow this reboot did not make me happy.

Well even a stock rom gets a random reboot, just give it time. As long as a rom doesn't random hung or reboot in a call that's a keeper for me. Anyway you have your own idea on what you want in a rom. Hope you find one.

[POLL] What ROM do you use?

Rooted stock, I tried CM7, but it was very unstable, keyboard sucked and interface wasn't that cool either. I'm thinking about some Sense 3 ROM, but reading about all of those bugs... Too bad we don't have more custom ROMs and Kernels.

if you like stock feel you should try LBC rom it is much better than stock ,you can always return to stock if you want for warrenty
if you want sense 3.0 you should try Virtuous Unity it only has a few minor graphical bugs
I have tried Virtuous Unity (1.27 at the time). It was nice to try some of the Sense 3.0 stuff, quite stable. I found some strange problems with widgets on adw.launcher and so I moved on to look at some other roms.
Next up I tried LBC. This is a nice and stable rom. No complaints.
I did want to move to CyanogenMod though, so I next tried out Superkid's compiled 7.1 beta (v1.1). I did like it and am impressed. The only issues I found were the known issue that airplane mode draws weirdly excessive battery and I had an issue where subsequently on recharging the phone reported being fully charged at only 92%(?!).
I will be returning to CyanogenMod down the track but I have voted for LBC as I will be using it in the mean time.
I would like to say thanks to all the various developers for the time and effort they have put into these roms.
miui & stock
I use LBC
Air plane more drawing excessive battery happens across most roms
Sent from my HTC Desire S using XDA Premium App
switching between LBC and virtuous
Using LBC MOD for the past 2 days, did a full wipe + the EXT4 flash, few problems -
1) Battery drain, idle stats - 40-45 mA & in use 90-190 mA.
2) Has hung twice till now since loading.
3) After reboot the screens with widgets take longer to populate and the swiping is laggy and unresponsive
Have I done something wrong or is it better to go back to the stock rom till the problems are taken care of? If anyone could assist with answers. Thanks
Virtuous Unity at the moment...
Maybe switching to MiUi
Tried lbc, virtuous and coredroid. Coredroid best in my opinion.

why does my sensation feel sticky?

Since the last update the phone has played up.
I got stock rom, latest version.
Now when i use the phone its sticky when i slide through pictures or randomly unresponsive.
I only have @ 120mb free of memory when looking at settings even after i kill all processes.
Any ideas?

try removing any apps you don't need/use
I'd also recommend getting S-OFF/ROOT and installing a custom ROM.
There is a guide on how to do all of this in the Development section
Wasnt so intetested in rooting.
I have reset phone, and still the same? Its only been like it since last update, i guess i will have to suffer it for now?
Get an overclocking app and set it properly,if you dont have one itll run at the stock speed for that kernel

[Q] Draw something on CM7 based roms

Anyone able to play "Draw Something" on any CM7 based roms without it freezing? The game would start up but then after like 20 seconds it would freeze. I've tried on a few CM7 based roms and even MIUI but it only seems to be fully functional with no issues on stock roms.
Iam having problems to with it also on my cm7 T-Mobile g2x it would freeze and can't touch anything. Can't even play it.

I works "OK" on cm9. still very usable becasue i have been playing it for the last week, but it does freeze up every once in a while, and FC, and one thime form me it froze completely and i had to do a battery pull. So it works, but not really super well.
I'm having the same issue on the latest nightly for my G2x. I thought it might have been AdFree or another conflicting app but I haven't had any luck narrowing it down. Anyone find a way around this?

Yeah this poses a problem for me as well. Girlfriend just found out about this game and she was in love with it. Then found out it doesn't work on CM7 ROM's... F'in bummer.
Had to wipe and flash a stock based 2.3.3 ROM in the middle of the night just because she wanted to play the game with me.
Lol needless to say, I hope this problem is fixed somehow because stock based G2x ROM's are so bad compared to CM7.

Lol I am in the same boat bro, my girl is begging me to play every day and Im on CM7. Sucks. Was thinking about wiping and flashing a stock ROM myself but just not worth the hassle. Hoping someone finds a fix soon, I tried everything.
Also thought it was an adblock problem, till I stumbled accross this topic.
What? Are you guys running straight CM7 or CM7 based ROMS? I am running EaglesBlood v2.8, which is based off of CM7, and Draw Something works perfectly. Even faster than it was running on Bionic Reloaded v1.2 which is based off of stock.
The only "lag" I noticed was when I first started up the app, it took around 10 seconds to show me the login screen.

vipers 1.5.2 camera crash and wifi weak

hi all,
i have a clean and fresh rom... wipe wipe wipe... everything seems work great, except the camera and wifi lil weak....
when i take 5 pictures in row ( no burst mode) , auto facing off . the camera exiting... and i have to click on the camera again. and i tried another five shots and happen again.........
the wifi a little bit weaker this time..... im sitting next to the router and gets unstable signals. sometimes full and most time less than full in one or two bars.... the range is 3 feet from the router... i used to gets full signal on 1.4.0 for 12-15 feet from the router:silly:
i did search very very hard and tried every possible fix, but i failed....
thank you guys for the BESTEST OF THE BEST rom ever :victory::victory::victory::good::good::good:

yes im completely on viper stock... no custom kernel, no no no other stuff.
but i tried today faux kernel, its solved the camera and wifi but i start get reboots and sometimes the phone freezes after or during the calls.
EVEN WITH FRESH INSTALL
and i tried sebastianFM kinda fixed the wifi but same problem with camera. but the phone feels lil choppy....
im guessing its just a kernel issue, cause the camera missing hardware GPU and can't handle fast and high quality pictures a the same time.
well thank you so much guys for all your hard work and time
