Running 1.03. No problems in the areas I need my phone for. Someone convince me to upgrade again to 1.04...
[EVO 4G Android Development] rileyd5:
because you know the temptation to do so is so overwhelming that you will cave to the pressure :) that's why LOL.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cds36:
yeah guys lets keep this thread ROM related only. I only stated it as my own experience take it or leave it.

[EVO 4G Android Development] cds36:
Yeah I Caved in but honestly i dont see reason to upgrade if 1.0.3 is working. I just like having the latest and greatest.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Zabalba:
Believe me I understand you.

All I was stating that once you wipe in AmonRa (not Clockwork) there is no need to wipe over and over again. Yes data may remain on the nand but it's now able to be written over it once you flash the new rom. The previous data is phased out.

At the end of the day to each is his own.

Everything is running smoothly for me so far but i know tomorrow I'll start missing text again for some reason lol... But as of now everything is smooth as gravy.
[EVO 4G Android Development] rccwill:
so do we need to partition our sdcard and upgrade to ext with this version?

Or can we just install ... after a full wipe of course
[EVO 4G Android Development] troyboytn:
well....the best reason to upgrade to 1.04 is that Mik is gonna drop an update tonight that enables the 3.0 rosie and widgets. I doubt that will work for those who choose to remain on 1.03
[EVO 4G Android Development] cds36:
Yeah then its worth it HAHA !
[EVO 4G Android Development] Atticustrd:
Isnt that going to be another full wipe though, and in beta?

I finally got v1.03 to run as i like, took me like two days, now i have to start over with 1.04 grrrr. Im the type that just knowing its on my phone i feel good, but it doesn't sound like updating to 1.04 is worth the hassle of flashing theme, backup/restoring apps.. Its time consuming :o
[EVO 4G Android Development] rccwill:
+1...having to reinstall everything and get it running right is beginning to be a hassle.

But hence the life of a beta user :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Genjinaro:
I know right, 1.03 is working perfectly for me no issues. :D Its hard resisting the urge to install 1.04 though, its like this addiction to have the latest & greatest is eating at me.... slowly. :(

hahaha that is exactly what I was thinking:D

Yet, in almost 2 years of playing with, testing on and dev'ing for one device, it's been my experience that at times, things DO get left behind.

[EVO 4G Android Development] troyboytn:
Mik said "update" this morning....though I could be interpreting that the wrong way. Just making assumptions based upon what he said. :)

This is Mik's post from earlier this morning .... read people.... "i will update tonight with an optional zip to get sense 3.0 rosie and widgets running on v1.xx."
[EVO 4G Android Development] rccwill:
I've had some pretty bad experience with TB, especially when switching from ROM to ROM and different versions of those ROMs.

The best way to upgrade that I have found is to do the following.

Download App Dragon from the market and email a list of apps that I currently have.

Do full wipe and I mean everything, don't use a zip to wipe but use the ones built in to your recovery...I use AmonRa.

Then partition and install the rom.

Then reinstall the apps that you had previously.

[EVO 4G Android Development] coiledwire:
Data remanence has to do with data security. We live in an analog world, but trying to digitize it. If you do a standard wipe and someone comes in with a low-voltage probe, then they will be able to see what data was there prior to erasing. That what companies that specialize in data recovery do, but its outside the normal operation of the device. The articles referred to are old, and flash memory structures have progressed since then. You'll never get a true "zero" state once a device is powered up. But the definition of what is a 1 or a 0 is much more clear to circuitry.

My position is that multiple wipes are not necessary. But everyone is free to wipe their device as many times as they need to feel satisfied. I just don't like to see when someone posts my information as inaccurate.

[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Yes but remember you aren't wiping the hard drive. You are wiping flash memory. Coiledwire said it best, I'll search for his post again.

Bottom line though, to each their own. If you want to flash 35 times before you flash a rom then that's your choice. Personally I wipe once and flash and have never had issues.

EDIT: And I see coiledwire has responded. :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] sc00basteve:
Sorry to post a response a little off ROM topic but I think this will help.

TB and TBpro are constantly being updated so try the new version that went up yesterday (I think its 3.8.6). Working great after that update as long as I install the Pro Key.

I have found that making a System version of the flashable app is the one that works the best but I have to go and manually change preferences either way.

Correct me if I'm wrong but you could just let Google backup (then restore) your info. It is a perk of Gingerbread after all.

Note: It will Que ALL your apps that you had previously installed so get on WiFi or 4G.

Try turning it off (unchecked both on and off animations) then turn off screen, the turn on screen and turn em back on. See if that works.
[EVO 4G Android Development] CheesyNutz:

[EVO 4G Android Development] makskylan:
I unchecked the screen on and off animations, it seems to dim the screen as it turns off, no difference in the screen on.

I checked the screen on and off animations, it no different than any other ROM that I have had....

So don't know.. was kinda neat to have the new animations.
[EVO 4G Android Development] eveol:
Do you have spare parts with aniamations set on fast.
[EVO 4G Android Development] makskylan:
I didn't have spare parts installed so I installed it. Changed the animation settings to normal and that took care of it....

Thank You Very Much....
[EVO 4G Android Development] Androidious:
I'm sorry man, that sucks. That's one animation that I love watching. It never gets old... Ahem...

Anyway, if you don't find anything that works, I'd recommend wiping everything and flashing B3 (or B4 if its out by then). Then refresh and.test. it should he just fine at that point. There's no reason it shouldn't work after a clean wipe and install.

EDIT: never mind, looks like you got it worked out. Nice job guys! Gotta love XDA!

I would NOT turn on google backup and restore. I previously posted on some specific problems that it has caused, that were resolved with the only change being turning it off. it can restore old data to apps that cause the program to not function properly and force close. I would NOT use it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cds36:
Yeah im gonna pass on it i did a backup on titanium with new version and with my backup root so hopefully one of those will work
[EVO 4G Android Development] tatnai:
I agree. I only ever wipe once, and flash once. Have never had a problem. Usually if I have had a "bad flash", I can usually trace it back to restoring something improper or to using the google backup/restore, which can cause problems by bringing in old app data to apps that have been updated.

aamikam said it best:

v1.04:

Rebuild again... using a newer build of apktool (so yes... full wipe again... sorry)

No more symlinks (all fit on system which means approx 400mb free on data on 1st boot)

Diff mem tweaks that should not cause issues for those that had meme issues

Updated FlashPlayer

Updated SU

Switched to ESFileExplorer instead of Explorer

I tired to recreate the bug with stock browser but couldn't... so i assume its gone.

The system memory is important, as well as memory tweaks.

man i just downloaded 1.0.4 but i cant believe i left my usb cable at home #smh....guess i got to wait till i get home tonight to flash:(
[EVO 4G Android Development] merkk:
again - i am new to this rom so i can't say how well it will or will not work on this rom. I can say on the rom i cam from previously i typically had zero problems installing an updated version of the rom without doing a full wipe. Once in a while i'd encounter some odd problem or glitch after doing the update, at which point i'd do the full wipe and everything was ok.

So for me at least, NOT doing a full wipe saved me a lot of time.

edit: i see from the post from mik that the 1.04 requires a full wipe do to one of the changes in the update - in that case i wouldn't try doing it without the full wipe. if the guy who makes the rom says you need a full wipe, i'd do a full wipe. like i said above - i'm new to this rom and was only speaking about my experience from a previous rom.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Lrod0175:
"Rebuild again... using a newer build of apktool (so yes... full wipe again... sorry)"

That's what aamikam wrote, as u can see the rom has been rebuilt and he is emphasizing on a full wipe, even though for some people it turns to be tedious to wipe everything, it is recommended and if you wanna have this rom optimized and working to its full potential and speed, get use to perform full wipes, trust me, it is better to start from scratch than to have lagging and force close issues.

Merkk. I can assume that you've read several pages of this thread by now. You should see a very common theme of problems spawned from not wiping properly.

You are more than welcomed to try not fully wiping first. If you have a problem, then you can try a full wipe. Just please don't become another statistic and report a problem with the Rom that has something to do with improper wiping. Thanks.
