There are a lot of quirky little differences,which you just have to get used to.

Hi,

Go to market and get "Super tool box 10 +"(free)
Then,see if you can move them to your phone with that.

What do you mean by "dalvik"? and how do you clear the cache? I upgraded from GB. I'm half tempted to now do a factory reset and start from scratch.

So the missing messages tab is an ICS quirk, and not something I've done?

Thanks

Hi,

Whenever you install a new ROM/kernel etc. the dalvik and cache are cleaned to accommodate the new software.
This should not happen after EVERY reboot.
The "clean" dalvik and cache can be found in the recovery .

I'm sorry,but I do not know about the "missing messages tab"

If you are thinking about returning to GB,you will have to downgrade your firmware to hboot 1.17.
If I were you,give ICS a week's trial before you decide.
It grew on me...

Well, I'm getting the message after every reboot, that's why I'm thinking about resetting and starting out fresh. Might actually also solve another issue I'm having with data usage too. So to clear dalvik (what actually is that?) and cache, I'd have to enter bootloader?

Not going back to GB, going to run stock ICS for a bit, get used to it, then going to try out a custom ROM, maybe Android Revolution to start with.

Hi,

I can recommend ARHD highly.
Use the SuperWipe zip before you install it.
This will give your phone a clean base on which to install the ROM.

Do not worry about the dalvik and cache.
When you are next in recovery,have a look and you will see them.

While I've never had the stock HTC Sensation ICS ROM, I remember having read on a Dutch technology board about this issue. I don't think you are the only one having the Dalvik Cache initialisation during boot issue.

Default Hmm...

The general answer could be that your kernel resets values on boot, you therefore could write a script that is run at boot. This script (according to you) should be added to . I would suggest to don't mess with files already in place but instead of that, save this script in your init.d folder.

I'm basically flashing an update or a new rom, it contains a kernel so it overwrites mine (Faux123's)...I reboot, let it settle then I flash the Faux kernel, clearing the cache+dal before and after and then rebooting...then I set the cpu to 384~1512 (default is 192~1512) and the sdcache is 128(i think) and I change it to 2048, clicking the Apply on Boot as always...but for some reason now, it doesn't want to stick...so on the reboot it goes back to 192~1512 and 128.

In the init.post_boot.sh file it says it like this:

target=`getprop ro.ident`
case "$target" in "Android_Revolution_HD")

In the build.prop it says:

# Tweaks identyfication code (yes it is misspelled, but I don't think it matters with the # in front)
ro.ident=Elegancia_ICS

So, should I change the init.post to Elegancia_ICS? Would this work?

I'm basically trying to make my cpu freqs to stick, as well as my SDcard Cache...which BOTH don't, so I figure it's the same file or something...

Here is the actual file from my dropbox (I ripped it from the kernel): https://dl.dropbox.com/u/54292644/init.post_boot.sh

Something tells me that I only need this portion:

# Tweak IntelliDemand governor by faux123 (kernel must include this governor!)
# Then set back OnDemand as default governor
#echo "intellidemand" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
#echo "intellidemand" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/scaling_governor
#echo "10000" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/intellidemand/sampling_rate
#chgrp root /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/intellidemand/sampling_rate
#chmod 664 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/intellidemand/sampling_rate
#echo "60" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/intellidemand/up_threshold
#echo "ondemand" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
#echo "ondemand" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/scaling_governor

# Enable ZRAM (kernel must support ZRAM feature!)
mkswap /dev/block/zram0
swapon /dev/block/zram0


And I wonder if I can just erase everything else and just leave this alone and I'll be good? Dunno...

Perhaps you or someone else can help me out?

***EDIT: Got it to work, thanks! System Tuner Pro worked...had the friggin tool on my phone all along! Sheesh!

Please press the THANKS button if I or anyone has helped you out...

My suggestion: make a script of based on some "example" scripts from eg. the faux123 thread, and save the file in the init.d folder, than it is executed after boot as well. Changing a file you don't know what it does might not be the wisest. I'll attach my example init.d script for the faux kernel.
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
echo intellidemand > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
echo 192000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq

Unhappy HTC Sensation Rooting Help

    • you will not be able to install firmware ( except for flashing an RUU which is similar or higher )
    • you will only be able to install custom roms that have your existing firmware ,
    • you will not be able to relock bootloader untill you flash an RUU first , otherwise you will get a security warning and the device will not boot until you unlock the bootloader again
  • i only posted this reply for you because you want to install Ordroid " i strongly advise against that " , and also AOSP and AOKP until their known bugs are fixed
  • All the posts i see is for members having wifi error that sticks , even after they change roms to solve it , they been asking for solutions for the past one or two months , so do your homework first and search XDA for those posts first
  • ARHD is going to have a sense 4 near , so better to wait a bit , and only install very well known roms ( ARHD , insert coin )
Oh okay thanks for the info And i'll wait for the HTC Sense 4.0 ARHD Rom, hopefully it will come soon. Any idea roughly how long itl'll take so should I install the Sense 3.6 version now?

So if I root with S-ON can I revert back to stock and relock the bootloader? Will this revalidate my warranty?

Hi,

I would install ARHD 3.6
There is no ETA for a Sense 4.0 ROM

Yes,you can return to re-validate your warranty.
