I know I don't have the post count as some of you members here. I'm a lurker learning everything that I can but I have been using VP 3.2 RC1 for a while now. I started with Kings and something else I can't recall now. Yeah it's fast and smooth but don't judge a ROM by the screenshots LOL. Some of those were pre 3.2 The theme builder he has built into it is amazing and makes customizing your phone easy. This may not be the most uber cool screen shot of a rooted evo rom, but it works for me.
[EVO 4G General] Lrod0175:
Totally agree! I think he was joking tho, or was he? Lol.
[EVO 4G General] phatmanxxl:
I used it for a few weeks, my only complaint was sometimes it would freeze up for about 5 seconds at a time, also the ROM seems to have been a ram hog. Besides that I liked it a lot.
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
I'd give it the title of *best non-aosp rom*
[EVO 4G General] Lrod0175:
I've being using 3.2 for a while now, I had no problems with freezing or anything like that, all features of my evo are working to the fullest.

To ensure that u won't have any data related issues:

Make sure u wipe data, dalvik, u can also go to: mounts/storage and wipe boot, data, cache, that way you'll make sure you've wiped everything, as for most of the issues u might encounter with any rom are related to conflict of data.
[EVO 4G General] akarol:
Been using it for a bit over 2 weeks now and been loving it thus far. I do like the looks of Myn's 2.2 more, but as previously mentioned, this ROM is as customizable as it gets. It's just a matter of me putting the effort in doing so.

Basically, VP is what CyanogenMod would be if it used Sense.
[EVO 4G General] mildlydisturbed:
I installed it a couple of weeks back, that's not the theme that it comes with (at least mine wasn't). Been running it for a bit, like it so far. Pros: really fast, great battery life, incredibly fast support and fixes through his settings program, apps2sd support, has a theme builder and lets you easily swap out boot animation, notification icons, etc.

cons: doesn't play well with CWM 3.0.0.x (which is a non-issue if you know how to flash or don't mind running 2.5.0.7), is a ram hog necessitating using Darktremor's apps2sd, gives you a lot of choices you have to make right at the beginning (not a big deal for people who know what they're doing)

It's a good every-day rom. Plays well with everything I use. Developer has responded in hours to questions I had that are months-lost and unanswered elsewhere. There're things I need in this rom, they're on his wishlist, and I hope they get done and it'll be about everything I can think of needing at the moment.
[EVO 4G General] Lrod0175:
+1 on that.
[EVO 4G General] phatmanxxl:
It could be nicknamed "cyanosense"
[EVO 4G General] the rhyno:
I've been on VaelPak since Nov. 2010 and 3.2 RC1 is wicked awesome. VP settings has to be the coolest part. The ability to swap bat/signal/wifi/ icons via theme builder is a stand out feature.

I think the one reason i will never leave this rom, provided Vael keeps producing for the EVO, is that literally every issue i or anyone else has ever had was addressed within hours sometimes even minutes. That in my opinion is worth more than anything.

And to all the toss offs that commented on the screenies being ugly, those are not what came with the rom, that was a separate thread showing what the users had put together. Way to be intelligent.

EDIT* upon further review one of those links was what Vael had posted in the OP for 3.2 RC1 but not what came packaged with the rom.

[EVO 4G General] Mike Fitz:
This was the first ROM I tried after rooting. Unfortunately I wasn't able to set up Exchange mail, got an error about it not meeting the security policy so it was replaced pretty quickly.

I'd still like to give it a shot if I could get my mail set up on it, I've seen a couple fixes here and there but nothing that I know will work (and not get me fired for violating corporate security policies).
[EVO 4G General] JJsax:
Security policies from what I've seen have been bipassed on the recent release.

It is supposed to.. I can never remember if it is AOSP, HTC, or both that has the hack.. I'm pretty sure one does not so installing the HTC one might meet your needs..
[EVO 4G General] Mike Fitz:
Yeah, it's unfortunate. I don't want to have to bypass security, I don't think the possibility of losing my job is worth trying a new ROM. Using Sprintlovers right now and no issues with Exchange. :)
[EVO 4G General] JJsax:
Understandable, but at least people know the option is there :)
[EVO 4G General] Lrod0175:
This problem has been debated for a long time now, try downloading the Htc email app from Vaelpak settings. The main problem has been linked to the Asop email app.

After downloading just follow the set up u follow with any sense rom. It should work, I did it with my yahoo mail and it worked fine.
[EVO 4G General] mildlydisturbed:
Something odd is I just walked a guy through rooting w sprintlovers and he had an issue with it and the corp security policy - losing his pin every time / needing a complete re-install.

I think it had something to do with TB, but never really found out for sure - it went away after a few times for no particular reason.
[EVO 4G General] Mike Fitz:
That is odd, I didn't have any problem with the newest Sprint Lovers. I did have that issue with Myns Warm Z, after installing the fix for the black PIN screen whenever I'd reboot it would lose my PIN and I couldn't get back in. Re flashed it 3 times and was never able to get that sorted.
[EVO Shift 4G General] atquick:
So, with the most upsetting news being released about ATT acquiring T-Mobile, I will be leaving T-Mobile and breaking my contract. I currently have the HTC Vision.

I am here to get your opinions. When I drop T-Mobile, I will be coming towards Sprint to pick up the Evo Shift. My questions are:

1) How is the phone functionality? Smooth? Fast? Random Reboots?

2) How is Sprint Coverage? Spotty? Constant 4G coverage?

3) How is Sprints customer service? Understanding or Strict?

4) Any hardware specific problems? Loose slide? Slide breaks easy?

I would appreciate your opinions. I like to hear it right from the horses mouth. :)
[EVO Shift 4G General] prboy1969:
Well I don't know much about the Vision, so I'm no help there. But as far as how good the EVO Shift is, well it rocks. Was waiting for along time for an HTC Android phone with a real ( not onscreen ) qwerty keyboard. It was definately worth the wait. Phone is Super fast right out of the box. No issues with it at all. Plus it can be customized pretty much any way you want it. Thanks to all the great Dev's and peeps on XDA. I'm running the stock Rom and OC'd to 1.6gHz. Phone is ubber responsive. As far as Sprint's service, well I've been with them for about 6 yrs. Never had a problem with them. 4G not fully up and running in my area. But 3g is plenty fast. Hope this helps.

Shifted from neverland using XDA Premium App
[EVO Shift 4G General] atquick:
I did some more searching around, and I saw a few posts saying that the Evo shift is basically the vision. That makes me happy, because I really really like my vision. It is completely one of my most favorite phones I have owned, and I have had alot of phones in the past.

After reviewing the reviews I saw, I am really ready to move towards sprint.

I was with nextel when sprint acquired them, but I was afraid to stay with sprint because of how they operated before the merger. However, I have been hearing alot of good things about sprint from word of mouth, and its steadily increasing my trust into sprint.

I am just so frustrated with T Mobile, I could choke the CEO. But, I guess this is a capitalist country and "if you can't beat them, buy them."

By the way, thank you for you input, really appreciate your time.
[EVO Shift 4G General] SHMaRiM:
I got the evo shift.

1) How is the phone functionality? Smooth? Fast? Random Reboots?

Very fast! Only phone I've ever had that has literally NEVER rebooted on my or crashed. While stock this phone was fast. Now overclocked to 1.5ghz and it COOKS!

2) How is Sprint Coverage? Spotty? Constant 4G coverage?

Sprint has really good coverage in my area. 4G is usually only available in major cities as is pretty much every other company's 4G. I do however get pretty good 4G service in most places near where I live.

3) How is Sprints customer service? Understanding or Strict?

Any time i've dealed with them they were really cool. Ex: My girlfriend was texting her friend in North Korea and didn't know it cost extra. Called up customer service and they waived the charges. They were very understanding and it didn't take long at all. I also got an American when I called lol.

4) Any hardware specific problems? Loose slide? Slide breaks easy?

Only thing I don't particularly like about the Evo Shift is that the slide mechanism isn't spring loaded. Other than that this phone is flawless!
[EVO Shift 4G General] KingOfThe718:
1) The phone is functionally fine. I have yet to experience any wierd quirks and i've had it since the first official day of sale.

2) Coverage with any carrier always varies depending on where you live. I live in New York and my coverage is great. go to sprint.com and look at a coverage map for your area.

3) It depends on who you're talking to. I have had very annoying experiences when talking to foreign customer service reps... but have had good experiences when talking to others.

4) I personally can't stand the sliding mechanism. others seem to like it.
[EVO Shift 4G General] atquick:
Wonderful. Thank you for your input.

Personally, I had the Gravity by Samsung, and I'm not a huge fan of spring loaded slides. I guess I am very particular when it comes to my electronics, after so long the spring would actually damage the phone, but hey, to each its own.

Thats pretty cool that they waived the fees. I was having an issue with my Blackberry Curve with TMO, and I complained the first time and the person that was helping me was like well since your having issues with the phone, we'll go ahead and give you an addition 800 minutes to help counter-act the issues your having with your phone. Come to find out, the issues I was having were completely my fault. lol. But TMO was here use these minutes ontop of your plan already, and I had the 800 extra minutes for almost 6 months and ever saw a change in my bill.

I live in a major city, Columbus, Ohio. So, hopefully I wont see too many issues when it comes to 4g speeds.

Thanks, really instilling the faith into Sprint.
[EVO Shift 4G General] SHMaRiM:
The shift is definately the best 4g android qwerty phone made by sprint ATM.
[EVO Shift 4G General] strapped365:
Man handcent messed my typing up then I had a goof up and made another post rather than editing I live in Columbus bro Polaris and season malls have great 4 g and on the south side it of Columbus it sucks
[EVO Shift 4G General] pwrmedia:
I live 15 min from downtown out in Canal Winchester (SE Columbus), and 4G is strong.
[EVO Shift 4G General] strapped365:
The 4G signal showed 1 bar until I took my phone out of landscape and then dropped to no bars....upload sucks
[EVO Shift 4G General] ahager88:
Well sir I've only broke 200 KBps on 3G twice so I wouldn't complain :P

I got 7.3 mbps in Memphis on Wimax, right in Harbortown. Wish I kept the screenshot. Ill take a few next time I'm there.

Sent from my MikShift.

Edit: I read your past foolishly fast, I see now that your results were kbps and not KBps. I've attached pictures of what I average, for the hell of it :P

This is bypassing Sprints proxy.
[EVO Shift 4G General] strapped365:
Yeah I think I wanna bypass that I just never read into if there were any long term effects or problems
[7 Mozart General] trixnix:
thanks so much for this. i will try asap if my asia unbranded mozart will be flashed.

edit: question if i dont want to unbrand my mozart coz it already unbranded asia will i flash the htc_europe rom only? pls enlighten mo. ima little confused. =)
[7 Mozart General] Casey_boy:
Yes, if you're sure it's unbranded, then you can flash any ROM you like. Just make sure there's no difference between Asian and European models (I honestly don't know either way).

Casey
[7 Mozart General] Omega Point:
This is probably a stupid question but, after debranding can you still install operator specific apps (such as Orange UK's 'Your Orange' app) from the Marketplace?
[7 Mozart General] nok_fusion:
yes u can if u find it on the marketplace ;)

they are apps like others
[7 Mozart General] mehdani:
i am from algeria.

after a sucessfull flash, pin code requested.

is there a solution?
[7 Mozart General] pedaah:
did you have the phone pin locked before you did the update? otherwise the default is usually 0000
[7 Mozart General] alljerry04:
i try to flash my asian version Mozart,

when i open the ROMUpdateUtility after it starts,

the Windows Mobile Device Center will automatically close, is that normal?

i flashed "RUU_Mozart_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.26.707.01_Radio_5.51.09.06_22.30.50.09U_by_ansar" first

And i paste the RUU_signed.nbh of "RUU_Mozart_HTC_Europe_1.30.401.01_5.54.09.21_22.33b.50_RELEASE" and flashed it.

the RUU always show invaild vender

thx u :)
[7 Mozart General] Casey_boy:
I'm not sure if you can cross regions - I haven't tried it - someone else here may know. Maybe try another ROM.
[7 Mozart General] R3PUBL1K:
Hi,

Great post.

If you going to flash via the bootloader then AS or WMDC do not need to be running.

Before attempting to flash a device ensure the battery has a charge of more than 50%

It is always good practise to perform another hard reset after flashing a ROM.
[7 Mozart General] R3PUBL1K:
Hi,

I think you will need to create a goldcard and purchase a cable (new days) or even HARD-SPL or CID (old days) to unlock your device if you want to flash ROMS from different regions, when the option becomes available for the Mozart. (if ever).
[7 Mozart General] metalgearslug:
Random Apps

I downloaded and installed the rom for the unbranded mozart for europe and HATE the fact you can't select the uk keyboard... So I installed the original orange one from ansaar but it has these silly apps that I can't uninstall... anyone know how to get rid?
[7 Mozart General] R3PUBL1K:
As the ROM is branded then you cannot get rid of the carriers customisation, as for the keyboard, this is really no big deal, the £ key can still be used, and its not as if its a full qwerty anyway.
[7 Mozart General] Infuriated-Germ:
I have a UK Orange Mozart (Sim Locked) and unbranded to the Euro 1.28 using this method. When I connected to Zune it immediately wanted to upgrade the OS to the Pre-NoDo update but it refuses to see NoDo.

However there are reports of people flashing unbranded 7389 OS builds successfully getting the Official NoDo via Zune who are also in the UK so it's very unclear how MS are "Delivering" the updates. What do Microsoft really mean by "Open Market" ?

What isn't clear is if the unbranded phones were also sim unlocked.
[7 Mozart General] Casey_boy:
I wrote this guide after flashing my girlfriend's Mozart (which was OrangeUK branded) to Euro 1.30 which was OS v7389 and as soon as the 7390NoDo update was released she was asked to update.

So, yes, I'm unsure. Perhaps they are going by OS version. But if you want NoDo, then flash 7389 (which is essentially NoDo anyway) and then you'll get updated to 7390.

Casey
[7 Mozart General] Mogreen:
Do you have to reinstall all your applications??
[7 Mozart General] Casey_boy:
Yep. This completely reformats your phone - it's not the same as the update process. You'll lose everything - so backup your data with Zune.

That being said, you can just re-download your apps (even your paid apps).

Casey
[7 Mozart General] jacksprat:
Worked perfectly, thanks so much! :D
[7 Mozart General] knirirr:
Hopefully no-one minds me registering to ask for advice on de-branding. I have a question about the part of the procedure above where the branded ROM is first flashed. The version for my phone is here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1007277

But, when I unzip that, there's no complete .exe as it's already been extracted. The unbranded ROM is an .exe which I had to extract with 7zip, though. So, what .exe should I run for the initial flash with the branded ROM (e.g. RomUpdateUtility, EnterBootloader, something else etc.)? Thanks.
[7 Mozart General] Casey_boy:
Run the ROMUpdateUtility executable :)

I love this game but gave up since it constantly disappears from my phone due to the sd issues while mounting. Ive even tried to move it to my phone but still happens.
[Xoom General] Player-X:
I have some 720p MKV videos with H264 video AAC audio that I wanted to load onto my Xoom, so far I haven't been able to get it playing smoothly at 720p with mp4 H264 and AAC audio but Mpeg4 seems a little blocky.

Does anyone have any suggestions on FormatFactory (or some other mass conversion tools) settings I can use that gives me the best video quality at a good frame rate?
[Xoom General] spitfirerx:
from how i understand it the Tegra 2 has issues playing high profile H.264, i had a notion ink adam for a week and it was the same thing on this as well.

when i get my wifi xoom ill test it but i expect the same results.
[Xoom General] jefftse:
I loved my zoom but I think that's one of the most unacceptable situation for zoom. good amount of people bought zoom is for video play back. at the least, if you should be able to play anything you throw at it. I hate apple but that's one I cannot trash the ipad
[Xoom General] drziddo:
I cant even move .avi to the xoom... if anyone knows how please let me know.
[Xoom General] funnycreature:
In Windows 7 it tells me with a lot of file extensions that they are not compatible but I ignore the message and copy them anyways. Then they play nicely on the Xoom. I've used .m4v, .mp4, .mkv, .avi.... just ignore the error message and copy the files. Then use Rock Player Lite to play.
[Xoom General] Sarahlili:
i don't know about the format factory, i download a free version of a xoom video tool, it recommend the h.264 mp4, size: 1280*752, frame rate:30fps, bitrate:1500

The above parameters are just for your reference, sometimes, video playback quality also is based on your xoom player.
[Xoom General] ottawaxblade:
whats the name of the tool?
[Xoom General] ottawaxblade:
what is the name of the tool / free xoom conversion software you used?
[Xoom General] Williamsmith123:
In the first place, i help u find the formats that xoom support.

Audio Playback Supports: MP3, AAC, ACC+Enhanced, OGG, MIDI, AMR NB, AAC

Video Playback Supports: MPEG-4， H.264，H.263

u need to convert your mkv to mp4. i use Fox Real Xoom video converter and set the parameter is mp4, h.264, 1280*752, 1500kbps, 30fps, and i can get full screen on the xoom.

so i suggest u also set on Formatfactory according to the parameters. hopefully it can help u!
[Xoom General] Sarahlili:
i used a free version of a tool which named xoom video converter, but there is a logo "foxreal" in the centre of the screen. at last, i took about $23 to buy a official version, now everything is ok.
[XPERIA X10 General] sofia-captivate:
Hello everyone I tried the arc rom by rdnaar and when I click something on screen it shutsdown. Then I flash rendeiros rom its keep shutting down and turning on by it self. What should I do?
[XPERIA X10 General] Bruce Lee:
I hate to make this assumption but r u trying to flash ROMs to a captivate cuz ur name has captivate in it and u sent this message from a camptivate. Or is the captivate a second phone.

If u r using a x10, do u have the correct baseband and root then correctly flash the ROM to the phone? Hopefully u made a mistake around the correctly flash rom part. Please let us know here what phone ur using and then tell which steps u did to do this.

Sent from XDA Premium from my X10a rooted running 2.2.1 CM Rom from Rendeiro2005
[XPERIA X10 General] sofia-captivate:
Captivate is second phone I do have rights baseband .54 with both roms it was keep rebooting itself so I flashed wolfbreak rom it worked. But really wanted to try those two rom. Does it have to do with I don't have my sim on x10?
[XPERIA X10 General] Bruce Lee:
That could be. I would try it with SIM in. If that doesnt work u might have to start all over by using flashtool and rerooting and stuff.

But first, before u flash a ROM, do u wipe the phone, all the caches, and battery stats?

Where did my birds go?

Just flashed to ADAM (latest) and now my birds on boot up are gone.

Anyway I can get that tegra tab boot up there instead?

All I get is a 5-10 second black screen, then the NI splash screen pops up.

Just kinda bugging me :D

Thank you!
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tostino:
Same here, not seen anything on it. Any advice would be helpful. It persists through different roms for me.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] butchconner:
Gentlemen:

Press and hold the power button on your tablet until you are sure it is off.

The press the power button and volume + button down at the same time and

hold it until you see the "Recover Button Pushed" message.

Does it try to load any sofware?

If it does, then you can use the regular "recover process" to reload whatever

you want. If not, then we'll have to work on Plan B.

Let us know what you find out.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roebeet:
(I mentioned this in a PM) - on a real Adam, there is no boot-screen logo, it's blank. Very annoying, but normal for their firmware.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr. Eryozgatliyan:
Thanks for the replies !!

I took adam off, and the problem still persists.

Actually, I wouldnt call it a problem... more like blankness...?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roebeet:
You might still have their bootloader, that's my only guess (especially if you had done an NI upgrade at some point). I know an nvflash will definitely fix it, but a stock reversion might do it as well.

could you help me to chose economy kernel for my device i9000.

i need more working time on my device.

thx for answers
[Galaxy S I9000 General] GMH24:
Well, if you are willing to sacrifice some power you could underclock with Damian's ultimate kernel and as well undervolt (whatever your phone can handle)

apart from changing the kernel, have you tried tasker? this app can really help you to save some battery...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] azzledazzle:
I dont no about Kernels But ive heard 'insanity' ROM is amazing on battery life without losing speed and features.

check for it under development and see what Kernel people are using with it.
