I'm not a fan at all of overly modified kernels. I appreciate the work both of them do and recognize the difficulty of doing so. In some cases, there are benefits to the changes made but they're subtle at best and tend to introduce different problems.

I've been sticking to Sebastian's kernels because he's maintaining them the way I would -- just making simple, necessary modifications. Actually, even that kernel is more modified than I'd prefer but I don't have the time to take on kernel maintenance like I've done in the past right now.

TL;DR - Trying to keep the kernel close to stock.

Which is exactly why this ROM is so popular and stable, everything works and no need to add mods and apps that most don't want.

Personally I'm going to be adding Socali's underclocked version of Sebastian's kernel to my 4.0.2, as I want the best battery life - but it's easy to make that choice due to the unmodded ROM we've been given.

Thanks for your continuing work rmk40.

Having problems moving a couple of apps to SD card. Both apps support Apps2SD. They're very big apps, 100+MB each (Swords & Soldiers and Zen bound 2, from the Humble Bundle). I was able to move them when I was on the stock gingerbread HTC ROM but Titanium Backup restored them to internal memory after I flashed to VI and they're been there ever since.

I've tried moving them via the settings>apps option, via Titanium Backup (Titanium Backup falsely reports that they were moved successfully) and by uninstalling and forcing Titanium Backup to restore to external memory (which just fails).

I've attched the zipped log file from trying to move them via settings>apps. Any light shed on the matter welcome. The log was created via alogrec; zipped because the file size exceeds what's allowable for .txt

Don't restore GB backups to ICS, remove the app and run the apk to install it again?

Hi eagerly awaiting 4.0.2 final build release!

@ rmk,
Any more fixes / updates incorporated into this release from the bug tracker, or is it solely based on fixes made previously by socali?

Since I have updated to latest socali service pack on 4.0.1, will the next release be anything different?

There are still a few bugs in the ROM.... but I do appreciate how heavily modded this ROM is and the amount of work gone into it.

Also, cheeky request:
Any chance rmk / socali can change the icon for the Sense camera for the one thats in the pure ICS rom?
Looks much better, and the Sense camera icon is the only indication on my hone screen this is a de-sensed ROM, not AOSP.

Thanks again; keep up the good work, fellas ;)

I have nothing too important to add to this thread, but I have to tell you how much I am enjoying this ROM (my first since leaving stock). It's ridiculous how much smoother, faster, and just overall improved this makes my Sensation. Keep up the great work!

This has been requested a 100 times in this thread. If you had searched the thread, you would have known what the dev has said about CRT animation. Because of your incompetence, you have been added to my ignore list.



Congratulations, you have also been added to my ignore list.

I really don't think they care that much about your ignore list, bro.

Ok this issue has bugged me quite a number of times. Whenever there are notifications while I'm playing music with Poweramp, the music stops and the notification plays, then the music cuts back in. Anyway to ensure that the music doesn't stop and the notification sound is interleaved? My old Cyanogen-ed HTC Hero was able to do that. I've played around with Poweramp's settings to no avail.

    Virtuous Inquisition is a an ICS (4.0.3) Senseless ROM, meaning essentially all Sense components have been removed in favor of their AOSP counterparts. Everything except the camera app has been replaced. Any work, such as mods or fixes, you would like to contribute would be gladly accepted. The project has one goal, to provide a ROM which is as close-to-AOSP-ICS as possible.

    • Based off the HTC 3.32.401.5 *release* base.

    • Sense has effectively been removed. Some components may be coming back (such as the camera and music player), as they are better than their AOSP counterparts. I'll provide an option for purists who want AOSP-only-no-matter-what.

    • Remaining HTC framework beautifully themed to match ICS by shnizlon.

    • Stock kernel, not overclocked.

    • Pre-rooted with the latest version of Superuser and modified ramdisk to allow adb remount, mock locations, etc.

    • IO optimizations including the use of ext4 with writeback journaling for all mounts and larger read-ahead buffer for improved sdcard performance.

    • Automated battery calibration. Just plug your phone in after a wipe and charge it to full (preferably overnight), then let our script do the rest.

    • Over the air updates via ROM Manager.

    Important Kernel Files Reset for VI 4.0.2 by Socali

    SebastianFM Kernel v1.4.1, which is included with VI 4.0.2, comes with Sebastian's own thermald.
    This thermald includes, in my opinion, extremely high temps settings. The problem is that those settings are hard-coded and are not read from the thermald.conf file.
    Other kernels are expecting the default thermald and not this custom one, so they are not overwriting it.

    I strongly recommend flashing this before flashing any other kernel. Even in-between flashing different kernels, as different kernels might include other files that need to be replaced/removed.
    This patch will reset kernel related files that exist in the ROM's partition to the original HTC v3.32 default files.
    This does not include an actual kernel - you must flash a kernel after this patch and before rebooting the phone.

    Sebastian Kernel v1.30.2 Underclocked to 1.242Mhz for VI 4.0.2 by Socali

    (This is the same kernel posted by me before, but in a new package that includes the Kernel Reset Patch, so you can simply download and flash one file.)

    This is Sebastian Kernel v1.30.2 hexedited by me to underclock it to 1.242Mhz with a safer (or more conservative) thermald.conf file.
    This gives you kernel closest to the original HTC v3.32 one with Sebastian's MultiTouch fix and ZRAM support.
    I prefer keeping the CPU clock at 1.2mhz so that the CPU stays stable and cool and doesn't drain the battery as quickly.
    I hexedited it instead of recompiling so that I stay as close as possible to Sebastian's build.

    Note: This kernel will give you lower benchmark scores (about 5700-5800 AnTuTu score on my phone). This is not a bug, it's a feature..

    This one took a lot of time and research, but I finally got it! :D
