Well smoothness and performance never was an issue here....as far as i know.
Frankly the custom roms make more problems then the OTA.
By the way i would loooove to see CM9 on XL.

Same here! I have run the ics update on my sxl via ota and did not have any issues whatsoever. Everything was running smoothly, including Wi-Fi.
Nevertheless, I have rooted my phone and I am now using the total sxl senseless rom...also very good

Hi bls2009,
In regards to your questions:
1. I don't think there is such tool. If you had run the 4.0.3 update via OTA, your phone's HBOOT should had been upgraded to 1.28 and therefore, the "DoomLord V. xy" method won't work anymore.
2. At the moment, don't think you can

Lost root access after reflashing stock Rom

I bought my Sensation XE on Monday to replace my broken sensation 4g. I went through the same steps with the new phone that I did to root and s-off the new one, except super cid because I want to see HTC's ics update. Flashed miui on Tuesday no issue. Used clockwork mod to restore Stock Rom about an hour ago, because I like the beats audio and the cameras are better on stock. Now superuser can't gain root access nor Setcpu or ad free. This sucks. Can ne one help.

Try a different kernell. One that supports ICS.
Else buy my SGS2...

1) there is no ICS kernel sources availible yet, so the current kernels are a mix of ICS & GB. Thats why things dont work.
Did you try manually inputing the APN?
2) please post ALL questions in Q&A. The development forum is for developers to release there work nothing else.

Maybe you can flash the boot.img from the asian ICS update rom. Thats the official HTC ICS kernel.

This data problem seems to be region specific and while we can't flash radios or ruu from different regions this will remain a problem. An eu radio and ril.dll would bring data to you but just not possible without s-off. See some of us here have donated blindly for s-off which may never happen. I live in hope it does. Hopefully we can start using new base Danny posted to build roms so fastboot boot.img might bring some joy.

Hey guys,
I've tried to install the new ICS radio but can't get it to work, tried the radio.img with fastboot flash radio radio.img but it gives me an error.
At this point there's only one ICS rom based on the EU OTA update that gives me working 3g but this ROM has Sense build in, i would prefer one without Sense.
Can someone tell me how i can get this to work?

to flash radio, hboot etc. you need make s-off your phone. Flash unprotected hboot from unlimited.io and than flash new radio.
It can be as simple problem, look at insanyly cool sense install instruction and flash a rom that way if you dont wipe dalwik and cache data will fail. I have had same problem

This problem can be solved by manually remove and add your APN, with the exact same data. For some reason this works! Try it:good:

[Q] WIFI Issue on HTC sensation xl with total senseless v2

Hey Guys
First of all, i want to say, you do great work with your roms, i love them
My question is, that after flashing to stock ruu, to official ics update, and then to total senseless v2 with hboot 1.28 and cwm version with touch, the wifi does not work.
It says activating wifi, but nothing happens
i hope you can help me, and i aplogize if this question has already been posted somewhere, i have searched for it, but has not been able to find anything useful
with regards
Thomas
I also have the exact same problem? Did you find any solution?
Did you try to flash this ROM over GB?
My phone has this crappy wifi issue with stock ICS too
both of you, try flashing the kernel that i have posted in my MIUI rom, in first topic, vertigo kernel, you just need to be s-off before you do it
Thanks, I downloaded the kernel and flashed it with CMW but the WIFI still doesn't work.
It just says on and doesn't even scan for networks (even manually)
Here is detailed software information of my handset:
ROM: ICSense 3.0
Kernel: vertigo 3.0.16
HBOOT: 1.28 S-OFF
The course which i took to reach here:
Stock GB -> OTA Stock ICS -> Factory Reset ICS -> S-OFF -> Flashed ICSense -> Flashed Vertigo
WIFI was only functional at the very first step. It didn't function even with the Official ICS!
PLEASE HELP ME I'M VERY DESPERATE NOW!
try another rom, you can try my MIUI rom, i know wifi works in that
Ok
Thanks again
Do you have any idea why official ROM doesn't work?
it should work if you did it that way you said. if wifi not working when using another rom, then try to take it from start point with RUU, find a guide to do that on the internet and then check if it works stock if it does , then great, if it not working then BAD
As I said it just works on Stock GB not Stock ICS!
I HATE HTC FOR THIS CRAP!!!!

[Q] No ROM, have recovery, Hboot 1.28, error mounting sdcard

My device:

HBOOT- 1.28.0006
RADIO- 3831.16.00.16_M
eMMC-boot
Apr 24 2012, 18:59:39
So yeah, my sxl is rooted and has recovery, but it won't start up. I think it means that there is no ROM installed? Correct me if I'm wrong. The main problem I have is that I can't mount my sdcard in recovery and therefore it won't let me install any roms. I learned from other forums that this might have something to do with ICS, if so, I thought that I should downgrade my Hboot but I can't find a method that works for me as all requires usb debugging? Which I cant access as I cant turn on the device...
Is there a way of solving my problem? If it has something to do with RUU, my CID is HTC_y13 and everytime I've tried installing a stock RUU i've only got problems during install (yes i have relocked bootloader). I have searched for this all over the internet but can't find a solution. Please help!
Thanks in advance!
BTW, i'm a newbee at these sort of things so keep that in mind
I had the same issue when I tried updating my hboot from 1.26 to 1.28
I basically had to follow the hboot process again and go back to the original hboot if you scroll through the android development thread you will find the musketeer rom with sense 4.0 go to the main page and i think its post 3 or 4 and you will see a process on how to change the hboot
read this step by step to go back to the original CWM and you will find after you upload the hboot back to original you will be able to go back into the recovery and you will see all your flashed roms again
hope this helps

Completely sure. Now it says 1.25.0004 and S-OFF after that downgrading to hboot thing, but I havn't been successfull in installing a stock rom yet, so I guess that those numbers are fake at the moment? I've tried installing a recovery for 1.25 but that doesn't work, however the ones for 1.28 work. So I think that i'm still on 1.28 (untill I've managed to install stock rom).
Have you upgraded your Hboot or did you get the OTA update (as I did)?
SOLVED!
I managed to find a working rom and have successfully reseted my phone to Hboot 1.25 instead of 1.28.

I found a working stock HTC rom (I don't remember which one) that was compatible with my device. After the installation, my Hboot was 1.25 instead of 1.28 which allowed me to install another custom rom onto the phone via recovery (It didn't allow me with Hboot 1.28). So after that I simply installed another custom rom through recovery and since then the phone has been working great
To sum up, you need to find a working stock rom compatible to your device, which is very difficult... But just keep searching you will find it eventually
Hope this was of any help, ask if you have any more questions!

Beats audio file??

Hi, ive been reading around the forum and have read people talkin about beats audio in built to the rom they are using, im not using a rom cos im too scared of the brick bug but i do have a pair of beats by dre solos, i was just wondering if the beats file came as a standalone zip which u can use if u are just rooted? Or would i have to flash a rom to get it? If it is a zip file or whatever could someone be kind enough to put a link to it as ive looked in the dev sections and could not find it, ill have another look again but im pretty sure it werent there.
Thanks very much in advance

Im rooted on stock 4.0.4 with stock recovery.

beats audio in Carbon's tweaks are never meant to show any notifications at all. You need to feel and experience the sound after you have installed his tweak.
In case you also know... there is a beats audio installer in the market :https://play.google.com/store/apps/...GwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5tb3Rpb25jb2RpbmcuYmVhdHMiXQ... which I'm also using it now. Download and install it, it'll reboot your phone and try experiencing your phone's sound after.
