Not much, but at the end of the month, after hard work, time to drink a good beer.

Thanks Mike!
What for giving Mike the honor for making such a awesome zip file for Beats system wide audio parameters set up for thr new coming 3.6.x ROM image, please dude....
I hope you're not talking about mods... Or I will hate you for the rest of this life!
For 3.6.x
Autolight modded only.
Autolight with Stock %Battery.
Autolight with Stock %Battery & Green overscroll glow.
Hi, I've been reading this thread for a looooooooooong time and I think it's time to contribute...at least share my own experience with this ROM.
I'll be clear...it's an amazing piece of work and I'm still amazed at what we can get from guys like Mike. We are basically getting free new phones with every update... Just take a look at the recent XE series...we are actually getting a new phone for free and, what's best, probably even more optimized than the original htc sensation XE.
As far as issues go, I only had the screenshot thing, quickly corrected with the help of all you guys, the daemon prblm, also corrected in a couple of minutes and still the tasker prblem which I believe has an easy fix but I haven't applied it yet. Other than that no prblm whatsoever and with the faux 0.1.8 the thing is flying.
As far as battery goes, it is lasting a lot more than stock. I've been off charger for a good 11 hours and have around 50% which is very good for what I used to have.
Finally....Beats. Good, bad, ok, no diference....I've heard it all...My opinion? Get some proper headsets and you WILL see a diference. I agree it's not a night and day thing but it is quite noticeble. I have a pair of Etymotic HF2 and they really allow you to hear every tiny detail on every piece of sound hardware...which is both a blessing and a cure!! The most noticebe imprvement that came from Beats is channel separation. What I mean with this is that now, I can clearly hear every instrument in a clear and distinct way...there is no blur in the sound. this coupled with some high and lows improvement does give you a better experience in terms of audio. I'm a musician with classical training and I must say Beats in an improvement but only if you get the right gear to go with it.
Anyways....I've already wrote more than I wanted to... Mike you fully deserve every praise going your way and it is with great pleasure that I contribute for a couple more beers
Your confirmation number is: 6KP06490S3335362P
All the best, and looking foward to 3.6.0
@ Mike
Sorry but I'm still confused ... the beats mod included in the rom, is only through HTC Music.apk? Or is it system wide?
When I listen to music with HTC Music and switch to Power Amp, I see no difference, but I notice that sound quality is a little bit better...
But somebody said it wasn't system wide, that we have to flash the mod in second post for it...
Can you please confirm? thanks!

My ROM + mod from second post ---> Audio Beats for all applications and BT stereo headset.
Performance Tweaks for Android Revolution
- Android Revolution HD EXT4 Tweaks v.0.1 * F - This mod will turn ON data_writeback for all 3 partitions - system, data and cache. This will drastically improve I/O performance (mostly on write operations) at the expense of file system integrity in certain situations, like unexpected system shutdown. The risk is not extreme, but still bigger then regular. Use this to improve your system performance, but you flash it at your own risk!
- Android Revolution HD GPU Rendering v.0.1 * F - Force GPU rendering on 2D operations. This mod is working similar to "Render GUI with GPU" option in Development Settings. Flashing this will force whole system to use GPU rendering (instead of CPU) for all kind of 2D/3D operations. This might improve 2D operations performance, but keep in mind that some apps are not working correctly with GPU rendering. After using this mod you no longer need to tick "Render GUI with GPU" in settings. Even if un-ticked it will be still working. Flash it at your own risk!

Q 1: After flashing Android Revolution HD my battery drains much faster. What can I do?
A: Please charge your battery to 100%, boot your device in ClockworkMod Recovery and go to Advanced ---> Wipe Battery Stats. Also see Question 7.
Also please read this ---> [GUIDE] Enlarge your battery life : an attempt to fix the battery drain
And this ---> [How to] Brilliant Battery Life 100% working!
For more details about wiping battery stats please read this
Q 3: When recording HD video, the playback of the clip keeps freezing. How to fix it?
A: This is probably SD card problem. Format your SD card (FAT32 recommended) to gain silky smooth playback.
Q 5: Is there any alternative for SetCPU? I think it slows downy my phone.
A: You can application called No-frills. Remember to check "Allow on boot" option.
Q 7: My CPU load is all the time nearly 100% and in most part it's used by system. What is the reason of that high CPU usage and how can I fix it?
A: Delete your htcsense.com account. It takes A LOT of your battery and CPU usage.
Q 9: I have some strange issues with my ROM that nobody reported before. What should I do in first place?
A: In first place you should check, if the MD5 Checksum is correct. Then flash ROM again and see if the issue is gone. A lot of strange issues can be solved this way.
Q 11: I can't send/receive MMS or I can't connect with mobile data connection. How can I fix it?
A: Please check your MMS settings or mobile data connection APN settings.
Q 13: When I listen to music from HTC stock player it accidentally pauses for short time and then keep playing.
A: Turn OFF fastboot in settings.
Q 15: My clock/weather widget doesn't show my location. How can I fix it?
A: Please clear data from Google Maps, Clock Widget, Weather, HTC weather sync provider and Weather Provider.
Q 17: I have com.htc.bgc process force close few times a day. How can I fix it?
A: It's because you have removed HtcTwitter.apk (HTC Twitter application). Please restore it.
Q 19: When I open up the call screen (where I see the recent calls and callers), the calls won't appear in the list. What to do?
A: Probably you are using 3rd party launcher. Remove the dialer shortcut and re-add it.
Q 21: Why my "4G" icon is gone from the status bar?
A: My ROMs are based on WWE HTC ROMs. It means that there is no "4G" icon but you have HSPA+ connection with "H" icon anyway.
You think you're addicted from flashing ROMs, checking forum the whole day and you feel like "Android" should be your second name? Well, here's something for fun
