Uh Oh

I have had this rom working beautifully for the last week and a half and was about to say it's the best, smoothest ROM with the best battery life I've had since Myn's Warm 2.2 Tried Synergy, then Energy before this one. But then this morning things started going bad. Normally from the time I unplug in the morning and get to work (maybe 30 min. max) I lose only about 5% battery but this morning I lost 30%. The battery info seem to indicate a week signal which is not normal so I did a hot restart and it seemed to take care of the problem...but don't know why? I took screen shots but can't post because of the second bigger problem! I tried this afternoon to check my GMail but as soon as I tried to open the app it crashed and I got a message saying the SD card was removed unexpectedly. Now it won't mount the card for nothin'. If I boot into recover and go the Flash menu I can still see everything on it but I can't access it using USB-MS or by taking it out and trying to read it directly from my PC. Is it possible something with this ROM caused this? Do SD cards just take a crap once in a while? Any thoughts/help would be greatly appreciated. Any one else have this issue on any other roms/devices. Oh and it's a 16GB Class 2, I know I should be using a class 6 or better but haven't found the need to upgrade yet. Sorry for the long post!

:(

I still think it's the best ROM out (that I've tried)
[EVO 4G Android Development] bluenadas:
It is likely your card has an issue...somewhere on here there is discussion of this but I'm on my phone and can't search for you at the moment.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aaanadie:
I think you should try this: Turn off phone, extract battery and sdcard, then put sdcard and battery again, turn on phone keeping volume down, go to recovery, wipe cache & dalvik, reboot. I hope this solve the issue.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SpikeOhio:
Yeah, I tried that first, will try again though, anything's worth another shot. If that doesn't work and I end up formatting again, I assume I'll need to re-partition but will I also need to do a complete factory reset and start from scratch? I also have another SD card but it's only an 8GB Class 4, I think it's what came with the phone do you think it will make a difference?

Oh, and if I wipe the SD card using recovery do I need to re-partition and ext2 -ext3 again? That's what I've been doing everytime I flash a new ROM, then move cache to SD using the aps2sd gui...seems to work pretty well.

my phone has been moving at a crawl all day, I've pulled the battery and I've had much lag, anyone know what the problem could be? I'm on 2.59
[EVO 4G Android Development] Shunned:
Yeah I've had that same issue. My 16 gig card did the same thing. Tried in two different phones. Sorry it happens.
[EVO 4G Android Development] beepsilver:
Have you tried taking the sdcard out, installing in your computer's card reader and checking for errors/repairing errors? Try that and let us know what you find out--good luck!
[EVO 4G Android Development] sah0724:
My card when I install in my pc always seems to be needed repairs but when I hit yes and it checks for errors, it completes and as soon as I re-install it happens again.

i have the same problem with the battery issue on my wifes phone and mine, both evo 4g brand new. i read somewhere that it is a htc thing. the battery actually stops charging at 95% as to not over charge batter and stop premature dead battery? i found that if i unlpug after a full charge then wait 30 seconds and plug back in it will charge to the full 100% and last;s alot longer..i am running this rom with chop suey and overclocked to 1113ghz and have setcpu settings to powersave when not using and i get about 15 hours of normal use and idle time. dont think thats to bad,, i am happy,

When I flashed RC1, i didnt perform a full wipe so this could be the issue, but i never received two texts about VVM. But it did tell me there was a mandatory update for VVM, it installed but it constantly force closes. Will a full wipe fix this? Im trying to avoid one.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bobdude5:
Full wipe fixes everything ..you should wipe before every Tom flash to ensure the most stability and battery life

sounds like another app that was designed for android 2.2 NOT 2.3

i hate when that happens. i really miss my yahoo video chat. used to talk to my kids on therre laptop from my evo but it doesnt work on 2.3 (yet)

if you really need that app then get a version of 2.2 that you like or look for some kind of comprimise untill it becomes available for 2.3 (if that happens)

if you REALLY need that app please feel free to try the version of froyo (2.2) i have listed in my siggy. i think youll like it!

Is ROM development on this ROM stopped.

We had such a flurry of releases, a whole WEB site devoted to these ROMS. and then nothing.

Not complaining just not sure if I should switch to another Chef working from the same Leak. Many of the other ROMs I find over themed and like the "Stock-ish" content of this ROM. Are other ROMs further ahead tweaking things.

Overall I like the ROM but there are a few issues I'd like to see sorted out.

My Exchange with HotMail is flakey. It dumps everything and refreshes last 3 days every time. (Manually Syncing). My Work Exhchange Errored out once but it seems to be fine now.

One day the phone went whacko. Beeping like mad. I had to pull the battery.

The Wake issue is annoying but I don't wish to revert PRI. I've done that with other ROMs in the past and I forget but it caused other issues. It does not seem to effect battery much and I'm getting by.

Few other issues I for forget at the moment.

Is it finals time for our Chef or something :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] b0tes:
There really isn't a whole lot to "fix" without the official EVO GB release and kernel source codes.

Sure there are a few bugs that still exist [add new number to contacts is still right-justified, for example], but the major bugs such as brightness and battery need the official releases prior to getting worked on.

Virus is working on a couple projects: one is a leaked image of the EVO3D, and another is Sense 2.1 ROM port with some Sense 3.0 features, similar to this one.

Between this version of the port and Virus', I've found Mik's to have my ideal balance of latest Sense features, stability, and memory footprint size [Virus' Sense 2.1 is over 275MB!].

I don't follow! I'm not sure what that has to do with unusual 30% drop on my way to work where I normally only get a 5% drop...or why a hot restart would fix the problem. Unfortunately I can't get the battery status screen shots off my sdcard (as it seems to be corrupt) to help clarify.

Hey Guys, I'm using the MikG 2.61 rom. How do i remove the background behind the icons on the lockscreen? I want them to be transparent. They are the smoke colored icons and are semi-transparent. I was able to find it in the HtcAddProgramWidget.apk file and i edited it but it only made it transparent in the setup, not on the actual lockscreen.

Thanks in advanced.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
There's a guide on the Mikmik for that.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Raistlin1:
How does MikG run when using a partitioned card? Does dalvik go on the new partition or does it stay on the internal memory? Do you have to run something to get it on the internal memory?

Just started reading up on partitioning and I got a new 16gb sandisk class 4 card that is supposed to be a pretty good and fast card, was thinking of partitioning it.

Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] vacoray:
Found it! Thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] coiledwire:
MikG runs well with partitioned sd cards. Here are the partition sizes I suggest (but it's up to what you want to do):

- Swap partition = 0mb (I hadn't noticed any benefit from it and the kernel has to support it, which stock doesn't. If you must have it, 32mb should be enough.)

- Ext partition = 512mb to 1gb (unless you collect apps, but even then I wouldn't go over 2gb)

- Upgrade to an ext3 partition (but not 4).

By default, mikg should place dalvik in the internal cache partition, which is probably best to keep there from a performance view. Internal is always faster than external. To move apps to the sd-ext, type "a2sd install" in a terminal. Look up dark tremor's a2sd thread for more commands. Good luck.

Sent via app.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Raistlin1:
Thanks for the info, I left swap at 32mb since that is what was listed there, I know it is prob useless for me though, ext partition I set to 2gb and then upgraded to ext3. Been using it with fresh install of Mikg and I think phone runs much better now. This could also be due to a full wipe and faster new card.

I am glad the dalvik stays on internal without me having to do anything, but I did not do any command line run of a2sd install, but my internal space remaining has not changed since downloading many apps. I will look into the DT thread, but any quick/important tips or commands I should know about while using DT with Ming?

Thanks again

[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
with the tweaks app... some things change on the server's end... and not just the rom...

so... for example... if u on the beta and will try to apply the inverted systemui... it will probably fc on u and such.

i also moved a lot of things around from data to system and such.

but in general... u right... not much diff from b2 as far as functionality and such... the only thing u will really feel is that now there is the battery bar mod, fonts will change more than what they did before, the debloater will show u more apps to remove and the sdcard speed options will stick on reboot.

can I format inside the evo?

basically what's happening is I have a 8gig and a 32 gig that I just bought, I forgot to format the 32 gig in windows so I cut all the files off the 8 gig and put it on my pc and then I popped in the 32 gig and it wouldn't boot up, took out the 32 gig and it still wouldn't boot up.

Then I put back in the 8 gig and went to recovery and got the usb mount to work, then I installed 3.0 and it installed sucessfully, I went to get the files off my pc and put them back on my 8 gig and it frooze up again.

So I'm just gonna install fresh and then try to format the 32 gig in my evo.

Desk Clock ?'s

I've recovered from my sdcard fail...hopefully that was a fluke, but now I have some questions about the desk clock. So far this is the best ROM I've used, the 3rd Gingerbread version, and all seem to have differences in the Desk Clock features, either Dock or Day/Night modes and they all seem to behave a little different than the stock Desk Clock. I assume they're coming from other phones?The problem I have is they keep closing in me...not sure when though but at night for example it won't last the night. There are no FC notifications so I'm assuming there's something else closing it, but I don't have any Task Killers. I had a similar issue on Synergy except there it was FC'ing. I tried Alarm Clock Plus from the market and it stayed active all night on Synergy but it also gets closed on this ROM. I really depend on this, especially when I travel, is this a known issue? I haven't been able to find anyone else complaining about it. Is there some way I can determine what's killing it and stop it? I doesn't occur on the Stock ROM. I'm still on 2.61 and about to move to 3.0 but am guessing it's still a problem there as well.

Damn aamikam!! This rom is so freekin smooth. I was under the impression sense 1.0 was going to be my only option if I wanted a buttery evo. Not anymore.. This rom is smokin! Granted I've been using it since 2.57 religiously with Nicks purple theme, the added features and smooth scrolling and 3d widget additions are just off the hook. So in love with the option to invert my notification drop down. All black is the only way to go imo.. Just looks classy. I still can't understand why someone would want to pull it down and have it transparent.. If I'm pulling it down... I want to see my notificaions.. Why do I need to see the crap behind it? Just makes it difficult to read.. I've not even made it past this tweak so I'm just getting started but had to post my kudos on the work. Great job!!!
