hmm i don't have market either and i'm pretty sure i wiped everything.... also, are we supposed to have transparent icons on the lockscreen? Mine still have the gray bubbles around my app icons...
[EVO 4G Android Development] johno601:
i just flashed .999 over .99 and it fixed everything without wiping my data
[EVO 4G Android Development] shin.andy:
Everything seems to work except Mms?

I can't get picture mails.

How can I fix this?

I love this rom!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Sixfoota21:
Unfortunately, i havent figured out a way to get it working yet. I tried alt radios / Pri's and still no good on two diff EVO's . Im going to flash the new .999 now and hope it works. If not i will try a new kernel. Its a shame because this is THE BEST ROM released right now. I work in a Verizon building and I'm roaming all day and cant get any data working LOL ! Im still loving the Rom though. Im hoping somewhere down the line it gets noticed and fixed.
[EVO 4G Android Development] smw6180:
Still getting sense reboots, but they're much less frequent than on .59.

For the record this is how I installed:

1. Wipe data/factory reset

2. Wipe Cache/Dalvik-Cache x 2

3. Flashed the VR Superwipe

4. Flashed .999

5. Setup wifi and google

6. Watched as my apps automagically restored from the market

7. Ran a couple of apps.

Sense reboots happened for me when exiting the following apps: (no logcat sorry, it's late and I need sleep. ;) )

XDA premium app

Facebook (for HTC Sense)

Netflix (which doesn't stream still though I'm sure everyone knows that already)

Weatherbug elite

Htc Weather

Camera (works fine, stock kernel)

I didn't test every app, but those apps above I got sense restarts if I stayed in them longer than 1 minute. I timed it, and as long as I hit 'home' prior to 1 minute I was fine...anything longer and it was a Sense restart.

Not sure if it's memory related or what. Just throwing it out there. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
Definitely sounds memory related. Are you running any task killers? Have you tried changing the a2sd lowmem settings maybe?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jaylove74:
For some strange reason when I flashed Rom 0.59, 0.99 and .999 I still can't connect to data while roaming. I have tried everything that I have read in the forums and nothing works for me but everything else works just fine. I see a few others are having the same problems. Does anyone have any ideas
[EVO 4G Android Development] lowetax:
what about roam control or the PRL mod to zero i recall seeing ?
[EVO 4G Android Development] FDDT:
I am getting no weather animations in 0.999 will wipe and post results

Also, and in my opinion the biggest change avalible here is... HTC NEWS with GOOGLE READER!!!! Now, I can say I have been heard, thanks :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] shin.andy:
Ap2sd isn't working? I tried to put the commands on Android terminal and it doesn't work?

Mms works now after I restarted the phone
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
What did you try doing? Did you type "su" first?
[EVO 4G Android Development] shin.andy:
Yeah of course. Actually I figured it out. Usually I would have about 380 mb free after a fresh Rom flash that has a2ad, but this time I had only 340mb free. I did a2sd check and everything looks good. I guess sense 2.1 takes more internal memory??
[EVO 4G Android Development] swiftinmotion:
Does anyone know if we can use the "mobile hotspot" app for free? or just download wireless tether??

and v999 is sick mad props to everyone who helped with this Mik u rock!
[EVO 4G Android Development] iahk:
It works, you just have to be on 3G data to use it. It won't send/receive on 4G or WIFI. This was happening on Synergy too.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Mikee4fun:
Everything works for me except netflix.... if anyone has a fix pls post it. Otherwise thank you for rocking the evo like no tomorrow MIK!
[EVO 4G Android Development] tommytomatoe:
I posted this on themikmik as well...but thought I should do it here too. :-)

http://bit.ly/muDps1
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
Yes, it most certainly does.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
I believe you can use it. Even if not, it just won't work and an error message will pop up. You shouldn't be charged as long as you don't actually add the service to your plan.
[EVO 4G Android Development] swiftinmotion:
thanks for actually responding to my question..thumbs up for sure..

PS know how to get MMS to work?.. doesnt work on 3g or wifi sorry if i missed a fix
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
You're welcome. As for mms, I have seen some people say it works perfectly on 3g and others can't get it to work. I'll have to look into it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] rexant1:
Awesome rom mike as always but the only problem im having is sense reboots still and cant figure out how to fix, ive tried the fixed permissions and vm heap tool with no luck. Anyone else have a solution?
[EVO 4G Android Development] smw6180:
Task killers are evil. :) no, no task killers and I didn't touch a2sd. I have a 2GB ext3 partition set up, but I haven't done anything with it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] soundwavedj:
I'm still getting the sense reboots frequently. I set the lowmem settings to default and the vm heap is at 48 by default in this version (.999). Im not sure what else can be done.
[EVO 4G Android Development] wase4711:
havent seen anything in the changelog; does .999 have landscape built into homescreens?

thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] solver404:
Count me in as one of those.

thanks, iahk for giving me the idea to try MMS on 3g. Works fine like that.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Curb71:
which one? both? :confused:
[EVO 4G Android Development] jelive:
FWIW

Not sure if everyone has seen this A2SD GUI...nice way other than Terminal to see/change settings...not all features but nice nevertheless.

[EVO 4G Android Development] soundwavedj:
Can anyone reccommend a different setting within a2sd memory settings that would help with getting rid of sense reboot or even minimizing it. I'm unfortunately not experienced enough to mess with those numbers
[EVO 4G Android Development] dottat:
Did you try installing and not allowing Settings to restore from both google and whatever you use to backup/restore ?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jelive:
Would tend to agree with dottat...do a full wipe, incl sd ext, then flash and set up w/o google restore to pin down if its the basic ROM on your phone or something that is added later.

Jim
[EVO 4G Android Development] smw6180:
I already tried that one, myself. I still was getting Sense restarts when going into/out of Weather, and once in Settings/Applications.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mevensen:
Seems like most things are running pretty smoothly. Nice work! I noticed battery life is not quite sufficient to make it through the day with moderate use.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dutchman71:
Unfortunately I'm still getting some sense reboots. I have tried everything... Mulitiple wipes, not restoring system data, unpartitioning my sd card. Very frustrating, Mik hasn't addressed the issue on the forums but I see a lot of people have the same issue. It's not a dealbreaker but it would be nice if we could pinpoint what is happening. Otherwise, one hell of a rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] soundwavedj:
I did the same and even uninstalled a2sd to run everything from internal. I still get the reboots. Haven't fully wiped and started over hut I did see that somebody else did with no luck.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ItsDon:
The fonts throughout the system have gotten smaller on .999 (from .51). Is there a way to bring them back to the larger .51 size? My aging eyes would prefer that :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] shin.andy:
Im not getting any random reboots yet... I hope I don't!

I cant wait for the themes to come out especially the rosie themes.

Also, what does the 2.3 update mean to us? Nothing really right? Since everyone is going insane about the updates, is this update going to make a huge difference?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Lrod0175:
Try cleannig sense data, if u did, clean dalvik and cache and reflash.

Lrod's evo
[EVO 4G Android Development] jelive:
Me too :)

Jim
[EVO 4G Android Development] ItsDon:
Answering my own question for those who also want to know. No, USB tether does not work with this rom. Sprint Hotspot does though so that's good.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Lrod0175:
I had to wipe everything and reinstall twice after I notice a little bit of lagging and voicemail wasn't working in my first install. The partition I have is only 512 and this Rom is flawless. I had to install amonra 2.3 after my first install just to make sure I wiped everything, including the partition, make sure u wipe boot as well. I set up all accounts at first with no problems.

Everything is working, if u are having any problems, lagging, sense restarts, reboots, I recommend cleannig sense data and cache, if that doesn't take care of the problem, reflash the Rom instead of going crazy and pulling your hair out of your head.

Lrod's evo
[EVO 4G Android Development] soundwavedj:
Won't that reset your home screens though. I use a cache cleaner auto set to clean caches every day in the middle of the night and that only helps for the first 20 mins I use the phone. Then as time goes on I get the restarts. No other issues with this ROM besides that but its annoying because of the time it takes to reload everything.

Is there a Way that you know of like in launcher pro to lock in the home screen in memory? That technically should shut down other apps before opening a new one and keep sense from restarting.
[EVO 4G Android Development] gmanhad:
I have no idea what ppl are complaining about. I have no sense restarts, or phone reboots at all. I use dolphin hd browser with flash playing in browser, and when I hit the home button it goes home. No lag at all, and that's with sense widgets on 6 out of 7 screens. My Weather app works great, and so far I haven't found anything wrong. User errors are almost always the culprit with such problems.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dottat:
Interesting point. What recovery are you using ? There has to be some commonality for the restarts?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dolfan08:
I haven't had a whole lot of time to play with this ROM, but I was expecting Sense restarts since I've had them with every other ROM with Sense 3.0 apps, so I ran the V6 SuperCharger Script because of the memory management and haven't had a problem yet.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lowetax:
this is a beta - which kick ass works great !

troubleshooting 101 - if a problem, track it down ...

fully wipe - flash Calk's Format All - then Wipe ALL/factory reset - flash the rom.

don't set up google account. reboot recovery - wipe cache and dalvik cache - reboot.

set up google account and sync. setup other email.

reboot recovery - wipe cache and dalvik cache. then try that base setup.

manually add a few apps you use often. test. a few more - test.

i do believe that will show you that this ROM works and works well -

and should answer your question about why you're having a problem.

(TB restore, etc.)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Ph33zy:
posted at mik's forum, but wanted to post here since it gets more traffic. Any of you guys with the following issues:

Also here are some other things that I observed. Can someone let me know if its just me as:

1) Market does not show up, even on reboot; fixed by manually pushing in vending.apk

2) home screen shows up blank on fresh wipe/install (is this intended?)

3) weather only shows "current city" and not actual name of city as in previous versions.

4) weather app only shows data on bottom half of screen. Top half is empty with black screen. I'm guessing the animation and graphic is supposed to be there.

5) Lockscreen icons still have bubble background and are not transparent as mentioned in changelog.

6) Notifications and ringtones default to "unknown" on fresh wipe/install and cannot change unless I push in "system/media? folder from previous 0.51 rom.

I did do a fresh wipe of everything and install, but do you guys think these problems are somehow related to the phone not wiping correctly? I'm using Amon 2.3 Recovery.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dutchman71:
What screen do you have? Is it affected by the brightness issue in the leaked kernel? Mine is. Maybe it has something to do with that.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Stuke00:
I noticed there was a Synergy updater in this ROM?

Nevermind, I may not have wiped properly :) Superwipe doesnt hit the SDEXT partition.

ops :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] dottat:
I have the same recovery on a rev004 evo. I had none of the issues you have. Were you on 0.99 previously?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Lrod0175:
Clear data, resets the whole sense launcher, when u clear data clear default as well.

LP has the lock screen option but it warms of instability.

I like the red theme so much that I'm not even using launcher pro right now.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Ph33zy:
Previously on 0.51....

Flashed for the 5th time, but followed someone's advice about not setting up googlesync on first boot and now I have all my ringtones, homescreen, and market. Hoping everything else is smooth!
[EVO 4G Android Development] shin.andy:
I second that to no issues..

I GUESS my only issue is battery drains. Im used to sbc kernals and having the battery boost!

Im sure they'll be a sbc kernal for sense 2.1 soon right?

I used clocksworks mod 2.5 and used format all to wipe and flashed this rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Mikee4fun:
Thought I chime in here since it seems like some people are having issues with .999

I have zero issues with this rom on my EVO which is using hardware version 003 except that I cannot use Netflix which is nothing new. I used Virus's superwipe first, then flashed .999 using RA's 2.3 recovery. All installs I have on this rom are apk installs going to the internal memory and I am using the stock kernel. I do not use task killers or task managers at all. And of course the brightness bug is still there due to the leaked beta Kernel but that will change by tomorrow. Hopefully this will help some of you who have issues with Sense restarting.
[EVO 4G Android Development] shin.andy:
Is anyone having battery issues?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dottat:
nope

unless good battery life on a default kernel is suddenly bad

9016

do i have to block that at my sprint account

to prevent the voicemail notification/message from 9016 ?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jrdiaz20:
Yesterday my WiFi wasn't working but now it is??? Oh well. I like this ROM so much that Im finally not gonna mess with anything for a while. Thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] tatnai:
no issues. this ROM (0.999) is a home run.

only things I miss:

1. the extra quick settings that were in your previous ROMs (RC1 I think) - any chance for a flashable update to add these in?

2. HTC Hub (which I know has issues lately on HTCs side, ::shrug::)

of note, two way video chat working great with g-talk.

FYI with people with battery issues, recall that when you wipe data, you are wiping battery stats, so your phone will have to go through a couple of cycles before your battery is acting normal again.
[EVO 4G Android Development] johnzal:
. I have notice that on v.999 vs v.99 internet is a lot slower to open web pages.. reallly slow ..

Is they a zip we can flash. To get HTC hub back .. it was working for me ...you have to set up account threw your deskstop then you phone .

Weather animation was allready working for me.

Love the Rom ...just the time it take to open webpages is to slow
[EVO 4G Android Development] b0tes:
Internet upload or download speeds are independent of the ROMs being used, but instead is usually signal strength related.

One trick you can try is editing the proxy port and address which should be standard on any Sense ROMs.

Here is the link: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=922978

Also, as much as pain in the butt it is to backup and restore apps, SMS, emails, call logs, etcetera--I've found that performing a full wipe and install of new builds regardless of compatibility with previous versions is always best and limits any system lag in general.

Good luck!
[EVO 4G Android Development] lowetax:
even with lame 3g here web opens the same as before - plenty fast.

in recovery wipe cache and dalvik cache and give it another try.
[EVO 4G Android Development] DeathBySnuggles:
v0.999 is absolutely perfect for me. I have one small localized issue I'd appreciate suggestions for. I restored apps with Titanium. When I go to "My Apps" in the market, I don't see them. I've had this before and 1 of 3 tricks would usually work.

1. Clear market cache, stop the app, then relaunch.

2. Run Titanium market doctor and apply the above step

3. Simply reboot

I've tried these to no avail. Any other suggestions before I just manually install the apps over themselves?
[EVO 4G Android Development] mevensen:
I had to re-run TB restore to get all my apps on, for some reason I only got about 1/2 restored in the first run. Now, everything is on, although I haven't tested them all.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mevensen:
Will keep that in mind, but not on a work day :)

Will try using it again over the weekend, when I can afford lesser battery performance for a couple of days.

I'd be really impressed, though, if I squeezed out as much as I have with Deck's AOSP ROM with Tiamat+sbc.

More than anything, this ROM makes me more excited for the EVO 3D, which will really make the animations, etc. fly and (hopefully) provide even better battery life (if the spec reports are to be believed).
[EVO 4G Android Development] johnzal:
Actually did a full wipe .. and my webpages opening so slow is not based on download speed .. I will flash again .. see if it improves
[EVO 4G Android Development] .psd:
Excellent work mik, was reeeeeeally looking forward to this but I'll have to stick with 4.62 unless I can resolve a few of these. Nobody seems to be mentioning these issues:

1. Gallery doesn't work, straight up. Just opens a white screen. If you click the gallery button within the camera though, it will show pictures taken since I installed the ROM (presumably, pictures in the DCIM folder or whatever), but it won't show all the pictures I've added to my SD card (in a different folder). (semi-deal breaker)

2. How do you change the apps on the sense 3 lockscreen?

3. No music controls on sense 3 lockscreen (deal breaker)

4. No music controls on default Android lockscreen

5. No Lockscreen Settings app (because I like to customize the AOSP lockscreen, but also it would let me bring back music controls in default Android lockscreen)

6. Incoming calls at the "default Android lockscreen" require me to unlock and then enter my unlock password BEFORE letting me answer. Incoming calls at the sense 3 lockscreen work fine
[EVO 4G Android Development] Stuke00:
1. Gallery works great for me directly from the application launcher

2. Menu > Personalize > Lockscreen > Settings

3. I get music controls just fine when using the HTC Music app

4. Can't comment here, I don't use stock android lockscreen

5. If you go to Personalize, there is lockscreen settings.

6. Can't comment, I don't use android stock lockscreen..

What version are you running? May want to reflash...
[EVO 4G Android Development] Stuke00:
Is anyone using the Google Music beta? I installed the app but there is no way for me to access the settings to sync my account. Very strange..

EDIT: Cleared data on app, now I have a settings option.
[EVO 4G Android Development] .psd:
I always manually wipe everything and so usually problems I have are caused when I delete a lot of bloat.

I'll do a reinstall and test gallery before deleting anything, and I'll see what I can do about getting music controls on the sense 3 lockscreen as well as changing the lockscreen apps and post back.
[EVO 4G Android Development] DeathBySnuggles:
My apps restored fine. I can use them all with no problem. They just don't show up in the market my apps section so if there's an update to an app I'd never know.

[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
I have noticed that many people's definitions of "full wipe" are very different. Most issues when flashing are caused by not wiping properly. A "full wipe" consists of wiping EVERYTHING. (This is recommended for ALL of aamikam's ROMs, because aamikam doesn't do upgrades. He rebuilds EVERY release.) The only things you do not need to wipe is battery stats, rotate stats, and, of course, SD card. That means you need to do factory reset, cache, dalvik, data, boot, system, .android-secure, SD-ext, and anything else I may have missed. And then do them all again :). Then flash your ROM and enjoy.

p.s. If you don't see all of these options, you are probably using ClockWorkMod recovery. I personally use and recommend Amon_RA's recovery. It gives you more control over your wipes and I feel like it wipes better. If you would like to switch, see his thread with installation instructions here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=705026. I recommend the bootloader method. Just bear in mind that CWM nandroids are not compatible with Amon_RA and will need to be redone.

p.p.s. This is all mentioned in this guide as well: http://themikmik.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=41&t=222.

Thanks for reading my rant. I just think many problems that people are having can be prevented by just wiping properly before flashing. After all, nobody likes leaving things unwiped properly........:rolleyes: :D

p.p.p.s. Please don't quote this entire post. If you want to quote, just keep the first and last lines or something like that. It keeps the thread cleaner and easier to read.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
A huge +1 to that post Jade. I was just getting ready to post something like that as well. You say it so much better though. :p

Another option to flash Amon_Ra is through ROM manager, just choose alternative recovery at the bottom, it is the updated version, that's how I got mine and it works great.

With that being said, it's always good to read and get as much info as you can so I suggest reading over that thread Jade linked.

My mms only works on 3g. .999 Everything else is flawless, beautiful Rom, mik.
[EVO 4G Android Development] gmanhad:
Day 1 evo, hardware 003, and I have the screen that works with regular brightness control. As I type this, I'm listening to tunein radio app, with 3 dolphin browser tabs open, and I just paused to hit home button. Went straight home, no sense reload. I use amon 2.3 recovery, superwipe, and flash rom. Don't know if this helps or is just my perception, but I always power my phone down and pull battery between each wipe step. Never had an issue doing it that way.
[EVO 4G Android Development] johnzal:
I second. This only on 3g
[EVO 4G Android Development] dutchman71:
Maybe we're on to something. I have a Novatec screen and no matter how I wipe, how many times I wipe or whatever else has been suggested, the sense restarts keep happening.

For those with the other screens that don't seem to have the brightness problem, do you get sense reboots?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
I can't imagine that the physical screen type has anything to do with this. It seems like more of a memory issue. I've been wrong before though.......
[EVO 4G Android Development] soundwavedj:
I have a novatec also. The restarts got so bad I switched back to decks AOSP. I literally tried every fix that was listed here and had no luck.
