Root [ROM] [8/20/2010] xtrSENSE4.0.6.1 [apps2sd,oc,jit,flash10]- HTC Sense

[emer]

The gscript folder is within the xtrsense folder though right? So as long as thats there gscripts should be there too? Im going to try reflashing.

This ROM is fantastic! I was hesitant to leave PlainJane simply because everything was working fine aside from the occasional hiccup. But this is way faster and smoother. I can't get this phone to lag if I tried! Having the G-scripts and quickboot preloaded is super convenient. Everything works the way it should. Coming from someone who always felt their Eris ran rather well (no silent call bug, no 50% without signal, occasional lag, etc.), my phone is running better than I thought possible. My only regret was waiting to flash this ROM! Thanks Zach! Great work!

Has anyone been having issues with the JIT compiler?

My phone has been rebooting itself more frequently lately. Not sure if that's why but stability issues have been mentioned in context of JIT in 2.1.

I've installed XTR Sense, partitioned my SD card to activate appstosd and cachetosd which are both working great. I just did a search on Google Maps, clicked on the location but it would not let me call them with the little phone button. Thinking it might have just been an obscure location I searched for Starbucks and still the same result. Has anyone else experienced this problem and if so, is there a solution? Please help, this is very annoying.

 

[Skeletronix]

Just tried it and it seems to work for me. Tried rebooting?

Just rebooted and no change. I was able to add a "lab" which adds a little phone icon to the actual flag that pops up to indicate a search result on the map which worked fine but the fact that the "call" feature when you view the result details still doesn't work is irritating. What can I do? Its not an app that I can just uninstall and reinstall.

Finally rooted my phone today and this is my very first ROM. All relatively painless! Thanks to ErisUser1 for the great tutorials on this forum and thanks to Zach for all the hard work creating such a stable ROM! Now my phone is snappy-happy.....

I'll give it a shot...

e: feels sluggish coming off senseable. Ti backup is taking 10x longer than normal. I'll give it a week.

weird bug that I've only gotten on sense roms (notably this one and senseable) : the screen will *randomly* decide to select a menu item that I'm not touching.

ie: during google quicksetup it took 10 minutes to enter my password because every time it would let me type 3 letters and then randomly switch to a different input field, or if I'm not touching the screen at all different fields/buttons would light up green (like they're being pressed).

Both worked for me. Got the keyboard and Flash is working. I like how the DroidX keyboard gives me the mic option for voice to text, but adding special characters is a little different. Might stick with the basic keyboard.

Unless anyone else has some cool keyboard options?

Here's one of the best keyboards... it's pretty much stock HTC with voice

By any chance is your phone plugged in? If so, try unplugging it and see if the random selection stuff goes away.

yeah I did see this in another thread, definitely seems to happen more plugged in.

Got an Eris to replace my wife's BB. It had 2.1 on it. It was kinda slow but was night and day quicker than her BB hah. Tried to load a few ROMs and stuck with this one. It is really quick now. I love this ROM. It should get ported to an Incredible. Hint, hint

 

[Fynx]

Rooted with the one click method over the past weekend. Could have done the other way but choose to wait it out. I previously had gone form 1.6 to 2.1 v2 to 2.1 v3 and now to root with xrtSense rom.Thanks again to the creator of this rom for a great design. It is fast and reliable.

Does anyone else not have the Facebook app after flashing? I'm trying to add the widget to one of my home screens and I can't find it to save my life

No. It doesn't appear to be included in this ROM. The 3D Gallery doesn't seem to be included either.

Well, I'm back on AF with what may be some more stupid questions.

I'll start off with the standard, "I'm thinking of..." statement. I'm thinking of flashing either xtrSENSE 4.0.6.1 or maybe Nonsensikal v4.4 Black. What plagues me are:
1. This xtrSENSE has flash 10.1 but does Nonsensikal? As Nonsensikal is a 2.2 ROM does it just come standard hence no reason to mention it?
2. If I went with xtrSENSE and decided to try the A2SD, would I really need to go the app back-up application, like Titanium, route or would a nandroid back-up and copying my SD card to my pc serve the same purpose?

I've been on Ivan's Official 1.0 for a while now and haven't heard anything about new ROM's (other than a 1.1 beta floating around somewhere) of his being released; Ivan's has served me well but I admit I'm getting an itchy clicker finger and maybe some "version envy". Everyone else's just seems bigger now.

 

[paleodust]

I just made a Nandroid backup and copied my SD to my PC. It worked just fine.

 

[Mer2112]

Just installed this morning and running great.

Haven't gone the apps2sd route yet but soon.

Great ROM, I'm running it right now.

 

[PiperCub49]

I am also thinking of going to xtrSense 4.0.6.1. I'm currently running EE 3.0 and I have a few questions about this ROM.

1) Are there any reasons that I should switch from EE 3.0 to this ROM for anything other than speed?
2) Does anyone know how the speed compares to EE?
3) How stable and useful do you find JIT on this ROM?

Thanks,
PC49

Pandora doesn't work with JIT enabled for more than a song or two without force closing. Otherwise, it seems pretty stable, except for an occasional random reboot, which seems to have gone away now that I've disabled it. I'm not sure I've really noticed enough of a difference with JIT enabled to justify the instability. It seems to work great without it.

 

[WormDoes]

This is my first ROM that I've flashed so needless to say I've been very picky in choosing a ROM. This ROM is FANTASTIC for not only a new ROM user like myself but for anyone looking for a fast, stable, sense ROM. I didn't set up A2SD or JIT and this ROM still flies. Great job zach.xtr for a great, stable, everyday ROM. When I get paid on the 31st I'll be buying you a six pack, sir

I've had the random reboot since I put this rom on my phone. Ill disable JIT and see if that helps. My latest reboot was during a pandora session, so hopefully this is the problem. Previous to today, I didn't have pandora on my phone, so my other reboots must be from JIT, maybe...

Been running the 4.0.6.1 for about a week and you know, it's nice snappy and all, but I'm not feeling it. The battery life just isn't happening for me. I was getting fantastic life out of 3.0.3, but I get only meh.. so-so out of the new one. thats with OC disabled. back to 3.0.3 it is

 

[thrawn86]

my battery life has been pretty good, roughly on par with senseable and way better than others I've tried. this is with nothing other than stock OCing, and JIT on.

no FCs with JIT, except in trillian so far.

 

[thrawn86]

I take it back, pandora is barely functional with JIT on.

HOWEVER, toggling JIT off and rebooting kills my network. phone is dead, no 3g, no nothing.

toggling it on again and the cell service works fine. anyone had similar problems?
