HTC Sensation users can rejoice with the release of Revolutionary to get some S-Off loving. We can finally enjoy some root access and of course some custom ROMs. I went on a ROM Flashing frenzy as soon as they were available. Therefore, I am here to show you one of the many that I have tried. This one is called Android Revolution HD with has a strong user base and has an experienced developer that supports other android devices. Mike1986 is the developer in charge of this custom rom and can be found on XDA-Developers. Mike provides a great overall experience with many tweaks and additional mods but the one that stands out the most is the fact that he allows users to choose a full Sense 3.0 experience or a No-Sense experience. Both are still based off HTC Sense 3.0 but the No-Sense ROM has many changes and mods; it seems to be a stock Android ROM. This review will be on the Sense Custom ROM and what it has to offer.

Overall, Android Revolution HD is a good Custom ROM to give a try for your Sensation 4G. It comes with many improvements and additional mods that give it a speed boost. The installation process is a little bit different so make sure you follow every step the developer provides to prevent anything bad from happening. Just like every other custom ROM in the community, they are not responsible for any damages that can occur when flashing custom ROMs so complete the process at your own risk.
