before everyone jumps on me....i am not complaning but just reporting my issue

when i took picture and went to gallary then camera app was totally not responding
and when i reopen the camera it said "cant connect to camera"

That happens on a lot of ROMs, even the stock HTC ROM. Nothing to worry about. It is a rare occurrence, and not a big problem. Rebooting will fix it. If the camera fails to respond and you choose to kill it, then the camera is no longer usable until a reboot. Sometimes the camera will even lock up completely and this will happen. It is uncommon but it happens to every ROM I've seen on this device.

The only problem I have is that sometimes the ringtone and media volume goes down and I cannot hear my phone ring or when I play games. Even if I try to raise the volume with the volume rocker it stays low until I restart the phone.

Works fine here. Did you try unplugging and replugging?

This is awesome. I will donate shortly.

Is there any way for this to be released officially through ROM Manager or are we waiting for official builds from CM first?

I downloaded the compiled build to install.

Compiled Builds:
25-03-12 - MD5: 1c908e46303ec6bc99e6c9f2aea16754

Wiped. Installed build. Locks on initial boot screen. Have the latest firmware. Wiped everything and tried again. Still locks on boot screen. What am i doing wrong with this one?

I have this same problem, I wiped using the CWM Recovery option. What do I do? It's stuck at the HTC white bootscreen!

Signature image

I don't mean to go off topic, but I was bored so I made a simple signature tag for this ROM. I don't mind if anyone uses it, of course, or knows a closer match to the font used on the CM logo! I'm disappointed that XDA dumbs the image quality down so much though...any way to bypass that?

Yeah I just did when I first tried it. I forgot to wipe the cache. A quick factory reset wipe in 4EXT fixed it and it booted right up after a 2nd install.

What I can't figure out is why GPS doesn't work for me more than once. It works great, and I mean REALLY great one time. But if I turn the GPS off, it won't turn back on until I reboot.

Had the same problem when I tried Trip's CM9. Had the same problem on the CM7 Alpha.

But it works fine on other ROMs.

Weird, right?

I'm in CWM, how exactly do I fix this?

I think ClockworkMod has issues with AOSP ROMs on the Sensation for some reason. Best thing to do is switch to 4ext recovery and use it instead.

Guys, this is amazing...I just flashed the newest build and my data speeds more than tripled! I used to DL at 1.7 Mbps and now I am doing 6.5Mbps! What the heck? I had no idea a rom could do that? Either that, or tmobile decided to stick a tower next to my place...I'll have to restore to a sense based rom and check to see that it truly is the rom and not a miracle on tmobile end.

Also found a work around for the torch. tesla HD from the market works. Another one, " the brightest flashlight" caused crazy reboots.

I also think that the issue with battery drain may be more an issue of the battery reporting full when it isn't and then leading people to believe it is draining quickly. My battery went from 30% to 100% in less than an hour. Theres no way, without violating electrical laws, for that to happen.

How do I do that when I need to access the phone to install 4ext (I'm looking on the eXT4's website and it points me to an .apk)? I hope they fix this in CWM, it's kind of frustrating...

I take it you didn't make a backup of the last ROM you were running? You should always make a backup in case something goes wrong. I don't mean to lecture but...

Is it possible for you to flash a different ROM, then install the APK on there? I know it seems like a roundabout way but...

I was in the same point as you. I was using (and still am) ClockwordMod while trying to get this working. Unfortantely after wiping and stuff and installing the phone seemed to take forever to boot. (Literally left it for over an hour). That's I just let it overwrite my CM7 build. The proccess worked a lot better, didn't have to reinstall all my apps, etc...

How would I place the ROM file on my SD card given I don't have access to the SD card?

All I have access to at this point is CWM recovery. I have a restore from 2011 which was a while ago and before I did S-OFF and rooted, but I'm not too sure it will work. Let me give it a try.

If you look through the menus on CWM, you will see there is a Mount USB Storage option, which allows you to access your SDCard from your computer while in recovery...

It varies between device, user, and running applications, so it depends. Why don't you see for yourself?

Idle time isn't as good as I'm used to, but I can get through a day if I don't suffer from a kernel wakelock.

OK I got back into an old build, I'm trying to install Ext4 right now (for some reason it's not recoginizing the .apk when I downloaded it, even with nonmarket installs enabled). I'll try to install ext4 and see how everything goes.

Or should I just try to install this without wiping? What is the proper way to install this through CWM? Obviously the wipe option there is broken. There needs to be clarification on this I think...
