morning pal. is there any application that allows me to check my cpu clock speed?

@djk:

1. Battery life - How is it for a frequent FB/apps/gps user? phone sucking battery really fast? should consider buying extra battery? how's battery life when using gps apps like papago? and even google maps?
- i am syncing exchange mail on daily basis. i am running on wifi (3g while on the go) with exchange mail, gmail, browsing and fb, the battery lasts for average 3 hours screen on time. i benchmark the battery life based on screen on time rather than idle / standby. from my experience, the screen size and resolution drains battery pretty fast. i got myself a power bank as a solution for the power hungry beast.

2. S-LCD - are you guys satisfied with it? how about the view when having a matte screen protector on it?...does it affect the battery life alot?
- i am really impressed by the resolution of sensation, as i upgrade from htc aria. never compare to samsung galaxy s2 so i wouldnt be able to compare much. it is best for you to have hands on experience and justify for the screen resolution / technology (S-LCD / Super AMOLED)

3. Price/value - are you guys satisfied with what you guys have paid for? or wished that it should be lower?
- i got my SiS set at decent price (RM1880 on 25 June). Pretty satisfied with the amount i invested.

4. Rooting - now i know rooting will increase performance and changing kernels will give better battery life...but by how much? so far i've read quite a few posts in here saying that they've changed the kernel and battery life does improve...but does it improve till i can have a day outside(using apps, internet, gps) without worrying how long the battery will last?
- rooting and custom rom / kernel unveil the true potential of the phone in terms of performance and power saving. since unofficial s-off is available on 30 July and developers are still in the early stage of cooking the rom / kernel. my personal experiences are smoother interface, improved bettery performance (keep updating rom version and kernel version since 31 July, so cant conclude the optimum battery performance) but it is yet to last me 24 hrs with a single full charge as playing pretty heavy testing out the rom

5. sync - I'll be using alot of outlook...someone in buy/sell is selling his sensation coz he claims that outlook can't sync with android(send/receiving). can someone clarify this?
- been syncing (send/receive) exchange mail since 25 June until now, not facing any single issue

hope above personal input helps. cheers mate

yo mate, thanks for the link!

btw, flashed the radio earlier. wifi signal is slightly improved.

after updated leedroid kernel v.1.4, the phone is much more responsive. usb charging is faster.

gonna try to rape my Sensation with gameloft games right after the phone is fully charge and shall monitor the battery life!

Bro,now is still within early stage of ROM development, I am pretty happy with constant update thou..rooms for improvement ma.. hehe

+1. Not forgetting the boot animation too..hehe

mate, what is the latest available version of ARHD? v.1.1.5?

20 mins of alsphat 6 hd, uno hd and spiderman hd, plus 5 mins of youtube, 5 mins of fb, idle / standby of 2 hours - now battery is 55% from 100%

--EDIT--
with 10 minutes of browsing at forum also

aiyoyo.. thanks for the update mate. i thought can download the rom while enjoy the football match later and flash it after the match.

no choice but got to wait loo..

bro, if i am reading it correctly from mike, it is advisable to not restoring (including google account) after flashing rom, let it to settle for an hour and follow by a reboot.

@vccy: not that mike mentioning any.

i am now having dilemma, latest kernel update of leedroid seems serving me well in terms of smoothness and battery performance. downloading of ARHD v.1.1.7 is in progress in the other hand..

correct me if i am wrong, that ARHD v.1.1.7 supports OC via Daemon. if i just install the rom, by default it is still running on stock cpu clock speed rite?

that is pretty cool. shall backup my current rom before i flash to ARHD v.1.1.7 to try it out. worse case, just recover the backup image.. =)

happy flashing mate! ORD keeps my monday blue away!

A quick update on battery performance of leedroid kernel v.1.4:
battery consumption is averaging at 180-205ma from previous 240-265ma. on my 2nd charge cycle after battery calibration.

testing on ARHD v.1.1.7. guys, it seems like i am unable to disable the keypad vibrate option when it is pressed (the 4 home buttons i mean)

--EDIT--
1st impression - REAL fast and responsive!

weird of weird. before i wipe and flash to ARHD, i couldnt boot into recovery via volume down + power so i boot via cwm application.

after flashed ARHD i also couldnt boot into recovery via volume down + power. mates, any idea what went wrong? it works fine since day 1 i s-off and installed cwm recovery.

i performed super wipe before i switch to ARHD

cwm recovery version 4.0.1.5, rom manager v.4.3.3.0
