I have got HTC Sensation XE.(it is rooted,revolutionary s-off,super CID,unlocked).
My old ROM was ARHD 3.6.9 and i was really satisfied except it was a bit laggy so after witnessing people's admirations of this new ROM (ARHD 6.6.3) i decided to upgrade.
After all i installed the ARHD 6.6.3 but i have these new problems now:
1.My mobile screen turns on and off involuntarily what should i do?
2.Battery drains too fast in comparison to my previous ROM(ARHD 3.6.9) e.g today with only 3 calls and no other actions(no video and audio usage and no internet browsing)2 P.M in the afternoon i had only 23 percent juice.
Of course i think one of the main causes is that screen turn-on and off.
3.Wireless doesn't work at all sometimes it finds the wirelss networks and sometimes not.
After finding the net it can not connect and shows this message "not in range"
4.Before installing this ROM i succeeded to connect to my mobile through Adb and make it SuperCID but now adb does not recognize my mobile what has happened?
So i couldn't install the Radio.But in "About" option my Radio version reads 11.69..... is it still necessary to install it?
5.There is not any options in menus and settings for enabling GPS or i could not find the one.Of course after opening Maverick program ,GPS started but it is very laggy and after about 8 mins it found the location .Before this it was very speedy about 2 mins it could connect.So what should i do to bring that speed back?
6.Maps program does not work and steadily a message shows up "unfortunately Maps stopped"
What's the problem?
Some of my other programs does not work as well and this message shows up after trying to open them.
7.After these all i am really regretful and disappointed of this ROM.Why should i upgrade and face these all problems even i thought to sell my phone and change it.
8.Is there any way to downgrade or use main kernels from HTC to solve all of these?
I tried to downgrade my HBOOT from 1.27 to 1.17 and bring my old ROM back but i couldn't.
After flashing the old firmware(1.17 HBOOT) the system hung and couldn't start and only 4EXT recovery touch removed and Clockwork recovery recovered but the HBOOT version was still 1.27 and the system could not start.
Excuse i really bothered you people with my long questions.
1. Settings > Display. What does it say under sleep?
2. It take a few days for the battery to reach its full charge after flashing a new ROM.
5. Setting > Location > GPS Satellites or put a toggle widget on your homescreen.
6. Update maps?
7. If you really dont like it go back to your old ROM.
Personally ARHD 6.6.3 works perfectly for me.
i am a noob but i think i have answers to your questions
2) kernel problem? if you're using faux123 kernel, download System Tuner by 3c from market and make sure governor is intellidemand (it was ondemand by default for me for some reason), or reflash faux123 kernel
havent test with sebastianFM yet, sorrry
3) ICS WiFi bug?
5) Setting > Location > GPS Satellite, install GPS fix tweak?
based on my experience, gps lock speed varies by apps
for example, Sygic locate gps fast than HTC location most of the time
6) clear ur old map from ur SD card
Settings > Storage > (under SD card) Make more space > Maps
Dear All,
it is about a month I am happly using Mildwild 4.3 (Oxy). Quick,no memory hangry and battery last quite enough not to bring my charger along side.
But...there is always a but, I have a small list of issues/questions I would like you to have a look at and maybe give me some heads up:
(listed in order of importance ..for me)
1) Data connection - I go to Wireless & Network settings --> Mobile Networks -- > Data enable I select it. Sometime the effect is the desired one: my data conntection switchs on and I am on the network. Unfortunately 8 times out 10 nothing happen. The workarounds I have found are the following a) Switch to 2G -> 3G (or the other way around). b) go Airplane mode and then go back to normal. c) Let the gsm reconnect on the GSM network
Any idea what s happening? Is it a known bug?
2) Incoming call - The main reason why I migrate from MildWild 5.0 CM to Mildwild 4.3 Oxy is because on incoming call I had a delay in the conversation, basicaly the first 2 seconds were mute. With this rom looks like the 2 seconds freeze period have migrated to the screen. Basically on incoming call for the first 1 or 2 seconds my screen stays black and I cannot neither answer nor hang up. Really annoying expecially if I forgot to put it on silent and I find myself in a middle of a meeting. What I really miss from the original HTC desire OS is the flip functionaly capable to mute the phone flipping it face down.
3) New release - Does anyone knows when a new release will be available? (4.4??...)
Well that s all my androians. I am looking forward to receive your feedback
Ciao
Stefano
Hey folks! Anyone has suggestion (expecially for my point 1) ??

I've seen behaviour a bit like this with MW 4.3, I think it was because it didn't have the right APN settings for my network. I looked up the right settings and created two new APNs, and my phone is behaving better now.
It seems like MW 4.3 has a limited range of network settings, eg. here in Germany it lists the main networks but not all the MVNOs (resellers).

4.4 is out this week: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1353861
However it won't boot on my Desire (PVT4), despite a full factory-reset and wipe. It just sits there on the boot screen until the battery runs out, so I'm back on 4.3 for now. And I'm caught in the "you have't posted 10 times yet so you can't post in the main thread" trap, so I can't report it in the most obvious place.
Cheers m'dears,
Bryan

Hi Bryan,
I could not resolve the connection problem. my parameter are ok. I made few more identical APN (just to give it a try) but with no benefit.
On the other hand I have just downloaded the 4.4 installed on top of the 4.3 (no wipe) and apparently it s working fine (could not no major improvement so far)
Cheers

Thanks, maybe I'll try 4.4 on my other Desire (a PVT1, I think) just to see if it works there.
This wouldn't be the first time I've had odd behaviour from the PVT4, by the way - its GPS wouldn't work under Mildwild-CM5, whereas earlier models were fine.

I've listed nine issues I've had with the Lollipop 5.0 Update on my Note 3:
1) Screenshot not working as before (before I could simply press the button on my S-Pen, then touch the screen, and get a Screen Shot. Doesn't work anymore. Swipe also does not work. Have to hold Power and Home Buttons to get a Screen Shot now)
2) Increased Battery Drain
3) WiFi issues (new WiFi issue that I never had before Lollipop 5.0 Update)
3a) Did have other WiFi issues before Lollipop 5.0 Update. Also have always had serious problems with connecting via T-Mobile Data service. Our Charter Internet service is much better, rock solid, stable connection between 65-67mbps!!!
4) Bluetooth issues (Random disconnect, but I did have this issue before, and after, Lollipop 5.0 Update)
5) Multi-window (doesn't work!)
6) RAM usage increase by 500MB !!!
7) Multi-Task doesn't work
8) Air Command
9) Random Reboot (had this issue before Lollipop 5.0 Update too)
I've called Tech Support many times. They have NOT been able to help me with ANY of these issues ... !!! I just discovered a few minutes ago all by myself how to get Air Command to work. After messing around for several hours ...... I accidentally >>> Double-clicked on my S-Pen, and guess what happened ..... Air Command popped up !!! It works. Strange that numerous Samsung Tech Support people would not know this solution. They all went through the usual >>> Reboot > Clear Cache > Safe Mode Boot > Wipe Cache Partition .....
Then the Tech Support all told me the only solution is to take my Note 3 to Best Buy and have them do a Reflash, or send my Note 3 in for repairs or replacement, or do a Factory Reset.
Now if I can just figure out how to get Multi-Window working again ...... (stopped working after Lollipop 5.0 Update several days ago).
I agree. My only real complaint is the wifi problem. It doesn't disconnect/turn off, it just stops responding/sending and receiving data. I have to toggle the wifi on and off to get it to work again. Now, if this was only a once and a while thing, then fine I could live with it. But this is happening within 10 minutes of being on wifi. Everytime! I usually have phones with custom roms on them, but since KNOX came around it makes me hesitate to pull the trigger on rooting. If anyone has suggestions I'm open to them. Or, if anyone can ASSURE that there is a way to root a t-mobile note 3 running lollipop 5.0 WITHOUT tripping KNOX (and not just a cosmetic cover up to display KNOX as not tripped) I'm definitely open to that option as well. Just tired of no wifi. I've done the obvious of a factory reset and it didn't fix anything.
Also, to address some of your issues. I had a battery drain problem, but the factory reset fixed that. And as for the ram usage...you want android to use your ram. You want ANY OS to use as much ram as possible. Thats what gives you your best performance. i may be stating the obvious there, but I felt compelled to.... If you didn't try a factory reset, I'd recommend that
Homtom HT10
a new official firmware has been released:
HOMTOM-HT10-Android6.0-V01-20170226.zip
http://www.homtom.cc/
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0By2t6rTTiNQNcEJ1QkpKQnhzck0/view?usp=sharing
no change log unfortunately
could you please report if those major bugs listed bellow are finally fixed?
is it rootable? if yes, how?
- no OTA update
- losing user language preference (simcard default language is used instead)
- losing connectivity (cannot make/receive calls)
- iris / pattern unlock crash/reboot
- random reboot
- screen calibration issue (not responding sometimes and it cannot be fixed with calibration apps from Google store)
- blurry pictures (slow focus and shutter speed)
- bad audio quality (over saturated)
- clean of malwares and chinese apps
Hardware features that were announced but never won't be available (fake advertising / SCAM):
- 5Ghz Wi-Fi compatibily
- NFC
- OTG
*** UPDATE ***
Ok folks... I removed the simcard and also the battery few seconds and flashed latest firmware with sp_flash_tool (firmware mode not download mode) and lost everything (all apps / data) but there is a good news... smartphone doesn't lose language preference anymore!
unfortunately smartphone is still losing connectivity and network (cannot make/receive calls even if there is network signal !)
(I thought it was solved too because it has worked almost half a day but actually i've still got this issue!)
so HomTom HT10 is still a useless 'smart' brick...
And HomTom is doing the same than UMI: banning from their Facebook page users reporting bugs or false avertising (OTG/NFC/Wi-Fi 5Ghz/full bands support/...).
Got mine 2 weeks ago and have not experinced any of the problem above. I think you have got a bad phone only(fake copy?).
I had a update as soon as I started the phone and it is now HOMTOM-HT10-Android6.0-V01-20170225, hmm yours is 0226.
I am no super user of phones but this one is working very good only the sound when doing the iris thing is annoying.

@ homtom.cc
HOMTOM-HT10-Android6.0-V01-20170510.zip
I'm looking for an English (or global) custom ROM for this device running Android 6.x or 7.x
MoKee, GizROM, LineageOS 13/14/15. Any ROM 100% working.
I bought one of these a while back and using it on the T-Mobile network for over 8 months. I also have not had any trouble that you stated above such as loosing connectivity or the iris scan crashing. I do agree that it would be nice if you could turn off the iris scan noise though. Love this phone and glad I took a chance when ordering it.
I may have found this thread a little late, but here I am. I have the Homtom HT10 running the firmware Android-6.0-V01-20161202 and I was able to root the device using Kingo Root. It's been a while, but I think there were some additional steps to go through before this root worked. My question is if anyone here has had success in rooting one of the newer firmwares, since I'm not sure if this root would survive the firmware update and I wouldn't want to lose root access.
Also, does anyone know how to replace the Kingo Superuser app with Chainfire's version?
mine was working good, i rooted , and install magisk and after a while i loose connectivity when make calls..i flash full firmware..format and all the stuff and still cannot make callss

I've flashed HOMTOM-HT10-Android6.0-V01-20170622 and so far all works pretty good (it keeps the language)...
Only audio EQ quality is poor (distorsion) and volume / quality issue in phone calls.
Not sure yet if OS is able to switch properly from a deficient 4G network to 3G/2G (because i'm currently using forced 3G mode in settings) but it seems to work better than previously.
flashing the Rom
Hi guys. I'm having trouble loading the latest firmware thru sp flash tool.
I'm running Windows 10 and I've installed the extra drivers.
Would love some help.
Thanks
Did you have to push any button combinations to get SPflashtool to start?

I used a different version of flash tool and it started when I put the battery in. There's so many versions of flash tool I guess. But I got it working.

My HT10 (got it a month ago) GPS not working
Hi guys
My HT10 GPS in to working. The phone is new, I just got it, and it literally only has viber and Here maps on.
The GPS tested today, not working.
Under a sky with no clouds in the middle of a field with no obstructing buildings and no signal whatsoever.
custom build version: alps-mp-m0.mp9-v1.33_aeon6797.6c.m_p11
Hello
I am french and I live in Ireland.
I have same problem with my Homtom HT10. My smartphone is still losing connectivity and network (cannot make/receive calls even if there is network signal !). I indicated the problem to Homtom who asked me to update Firmware but it did not improve the problem. Homtom suggests me sending back the smartphone for repair but postal charges are very expensive for China.
No solution... I have to restart my Homtom all days if I want to send a SMS or make a phone call.
Perhaps a problem with the SIM Card ?
I got mine since 4 months ago.
Probably the worst android I ever got.
It is fast ok and charge is really quick but its always losing connection. Its more like a photo camera and mp3 than phone.
The other stupid thing is that can connect Wifi 5Ghz and the 2.4 is really slow.
I have already stock firmarware 20170622
Serious Homtom ??
Hi
My question to Homtom :
When Androïd 7.0 Nougat is going to arrive for my Homtom HT10 ?
Homtom's answer :
Dear customer,
Hello.
Unfortunately, we don't have any available news about update to Android 7.0 on HT10 at present. Please note that the original Android platform could not be upgraded in normal situation.
Best regards!

It's not a joke... An incompetent technical department
https://developer.sony.com/develop/android-q-beta
Someone tried it?
https://youtu.be/W6BzFQqtOKg
I tried, but the problem is that the Xperia Companion gives me an error saying that my device doesn't support Developer Preview.
I will try to flash a non Operator customized firmware.

That's what you will need to do. Carrier branded firmware not eligible for beta
Anyone try Camera2 probe APP on Android 10 Beta?
Maybe support RAW?lol
Mine had EE UK firmware, I changed to Custom US firmware to try the Q preview mode.
All I can say is that it's not worth to leave 9 behind just yet. It's pretty much stock Android without Sony stuff in it, kinda miss it already, but all in all I only noticed one bug.
Connecting earphones with Jack will still have the speakers playing music, but you're fine with Bluetooth connection.
The gesture thingy is pretty weird by the way, fortunately there's the option to go to the classic three buttons.
Don't know if this answers you question but here's a snapshot of the raw Info
Tried it last night, some of the open issues makes it quite unusable.
Setup wizard can sync down backup data from google account/cloud, but not restore via BT/Wifi from other Xperia device
Delay with black background after the “Android Beta” information is shown before entering home screen
Camera functionality and quality are limited compared to Xperia SW
Camera button press is not starting camera, but double press on power button starts camera
Chromecast does not work for audio/video as cast icon is not shown
Media playback support is not on par with Xperia SW.
External SDcard is not fully supported for media playback and MTP
Audio routing with PHF is not fully working
Adoptable storage is not supported
Sd card is basically useless. So is dual sim.

Thank you bro.
It looks still not support raw
Hope xz3 can use Gcam on Q
This is a copy from the website and seems to not give a full actual experience..... I've been using all day and it runs well .... The Google cam app that's in it is crap bit I've installed open camera and it works great ...... And I can also play videos and use the SD card as normal ... No issues ....... Google camera does not seem to be compatible as of yet .... Until it's developed specifically for Sony I guess
It seems more stable than the Android P Beta that was pushed for Xperia XZ2 Premium. I have it installed and using it without too many issues yet either. SD card is normal but camera is very basic. All apps installed and are running well also which wasn't the case with P Beta.
Out of curiosity, how many versions do Betas usually get?
I rolled back already btw, I was already missing all the quirks that Sony brought to this phone. Also that bug I mentioned earlier - about having headphones connected *physically* and still having sound coming out of the phone speakers - was annoying me.
I installed it right after it was announced and only sort of regret it. It's stable-ish but so many things have been made useless. I just got the xz3 two weeks prior so I'm still in my adjustment phase. I think I'll stick it out until the next beta in June. Lack of SD card slot use, camera that barely works... It's not pretty.
Beta time-line described here:
https://developer.android.com/preview/overview
I rolled back as well. I have been with Sony phones for twelve years and like the skin and apps also. I do enjoy test driving the new Android version as well but only temporarily.
In order to Flash a Customized UK version & update to Q, I unlocked the bootloader . Guys, do you know a way to lock it back, since Flashtool doesn't support it and also when I try from command lines it gives me command not found. Do I have a chance to restore it back to original state ?
Don't think so. No need to unlock bootloader to flash another regional firmware.
The folder 'c:\ProgramData\SonyMobile\Update Engine\[date]\localstorage\' contains the firmware downloaded by the Xperia Companion stored in *.file ~ 2.3 GB. I extracted and seems to be all the files that FlashTool downloads. Did someone tried to flash Android Q like this ?

I don't know if it's network related or not, I'am on US firmware and Wi-Fi calling feature is missing. On Original firmware the feature was present.
