I haven't tried what you are trying to do, but I've noticed a popup tutorial when you hold down that slider, which says you can add items to the selection bar. I've seen this in several places, but I don't know if it works or not. See if that can work for you.

Just to clarify. Coiled is refering to deodex apks. Apktool can't do anything with odex files.

Sorry for quoting myself, but I think any "missing" functionality in the selection bar of HTC apps would be in what is described above.

If you long press on an icon, you can reorder them, or remove them by sliding them upward. When that's done, that icon sits in the window, just like an app in the app drawer does. You can return this icon back to the selection bar. I would guess missing icons should be located in this window; however, its blank as of now.

Is this description confusing to everyone?

If you download the a2sdgui out of the market it will do the same thing.

For those not using stock MMS and having issues I have never had good luck with photos on them. Always hit or miss

For lost pics (or texts) go here https://pictures.sprintpcs.com/login.do?cp=login). This is sprints picture mail site. If you look at the my inbox tab any messages sent to you should be there (as well as ones you send).

Hth those that are not getting there messages photos. It's a work a round. Sorry if you already knew about this but had not seen it mentioned.

I decided to test the 1.77 pri w gingerbread. It fixed all my battery issues before on group. I have been hammering the phone and on the latest pri my phone has been sleeping but maybe its been using more power than normal for the same tasks. I will repost back this afternoon as I have used this Rom all week. It's really a great Rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jason Black:
Okay I can now tell anyone that's having problems that its all their fault,not the rom lol. I reflashed the rom and now I'm slowly manually downloading my apps back. I haveno problems whatsoever yet. Everything is flawless and fast. Again, if youre having prob, reflash and manually install apps. I now know that I shouldn't reinstall themed apps from miui to another rom.

Hey guys my battery is draining fast anything i can do about it?

Idk if its because is my first day of using this rom or the kernel.?

Also i dont think this matters but i came from miui rom. The battery was great i used to get a day on singlr charge. Since miui is not sense and flashed this rom does it affect anything
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Works fine for me. Did you wipe correctly before installing? Did you restore any data/apps with TB?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Lrod0175:
Make sure u wiped everything, we had a lot of issues from people coming from miui.

agreed... no shortcuts here... its a brand new system with a brand new ui.... dont try to use your old stuff from the old on the new and expect 0 issues.

unless u came from a gb rom with sense 2.1 apps before coming to this one... i suggest u stay away from restoring anything besides texts and bookmarks. (your contacts are synced to google anyways)

Sprint Hotspot Reading the worng phone?

I went to turn on the Sprint Hotspot app to use with my galaxy tab and I noticed that is says my SSID name is HTC EVO Shift 4G. Anybody else getting this?
[EVO 4G Android Development] billbowers:
I think that is only with this particular page that Google has up. It does it on every mobile browser and every Rom. Been discussed in the general section yesterday.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mystery_tx_man:
You can change the ssid name to anything you want. It has that name cause it was ported from the Shift.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
It's because it's a stock kernel. Search google for quick battery drain with my evo 4g and you will probably get over 500k hits.

What you can do is when you wake up in the morning unplug it for about 5 minutes and then plug it right back in until the green light comes on. Basically once your phone hits 100% during the night it stops charging.

Check this post for some battery tips.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Lrod0175:
Good to hear you're good man!

Those restarting issues where caused by bad data after all. I guess it happened due to restoring data from another rom.

[EVO 4G Android Development] quocamole:
i'm sure you you know this and just didn't mention it, but it doesn't completely stop charging. it stops at 100% and starts again when it drains to a certain level, iirc is around 90%. this is a pretty standard practice (hp, ibm/lenovo, etc.). keeping a battery topped off for extended periods decreases the capacity of the battery.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Lrod0175:
As well as time, lol, sorry I had to point that out, some people don't understand the batteries get old, however the case some people get better battery life than others by refreshing the battery (calibration, battery stats, etc) from time to time.

Sorry if this is a dumb question but is there any screenshots for this rom ? I checked the links from the 1st post and there is a section on his forums that says "MikG v1.xx Info, Screen Shots and Download links" but I don't see any screenshots in there. Can someone point me in the right direction ? Thanks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Actually I didn't know it started back up. But technically it does completely stop until it hits that certain level.

Can't wait until the custom kernel's are out and I get my SBC back. :mad:

has anyone had any problems with ram? I can't browse the web and come back to my browser without it being closed.

I guess I am one of the lucky ones. I've installed every version of this rom and have never encountered any serious issues. Each subsequent version seems to perform a bit better for me.

This is pretty much the most stable and reliable rom that I have ever used ( and I've used several ). Keep up the good work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kc_hubbard:
If you're having issues...please read

OK. I've been following/reading the same questions over and over, most of which I either asked at one time, or wanted to ask but someone beat me to it.

If you are having issues of any kind (SMS/MMS, Sense restarts, Apps being killed, etc, etc, etc) please read through and do the following. I have found that this has fixed every problem I was having w/ this ROM, and I had most ever problem that's been mentioned.

Obligatory remark: I take ZERO credit for these. Mik, Lrod, Nick, Coiled, dpilcher etc have all combined to help me make this ROM work perfectly for me.

Step 0: Nick's right...do a full wipe. And quoting from his post about full wipe...make sure you do a FULL WIPE before flashing. And by full, use amon-ra and factory reset, wipe data, cache, dalvik, system, boot, sd secure, and sd ext. Only need to do this ONE time, you don't need super duper steroid this and that wipe zips and you also don't need to wipe more than once.

Step 1: Repartition your SD card with swap

Copy your SD card contents off to your PC. Use AmonRa 2.3 recovery to wipe your SD (note: wiping your SD card will in fact wipe it of all data), then partition it w/ 1024MB partition and 64MB swap.

Step 2: Clean install of the ROM

Step 3: Change the a2sd memory management to default

If you use adb, adb shell a2sd lowmem-default

You can also use Terminal Emulator from your phone by entering su, followed by a2sd lowmem-default

Step 4: STOP USING Titanium Backup to restore SMS/MMS messages or settings (you should be careful restoring anything w/ TB actually..it can be done but it's clearly been shown to cause a lot of problems depending on where you're restoring info from)

Use TB to clear SMS/MMS/APN and SMS/MMS prefs. If you need to restore messages, restore them w/ TB, then back them up using stock messaging app, then use TB to clear everything again and finally use the stock messaging app to restore your messages again.

Note: a quick way to re-install all of your apps after flashing a ROM is to use Appbrain. You can save a list of all of your apps pre-flash of a ROM, then re-install the same list of apps afterwards all by using Appbrain.

Again, thanks to many people here for the fixes listed above. The only credit I take is trying to put them all in 1 place so that, hopefully, everyone can get this ROM running correctly on their phone.

EDIT: At Nick's suggestion, I emphasized the full wipe part by putting a step 0 in about full wipe. Can't agree more about using AmonRa ONLY and NOT using the various wipe .zip's that are floating around. One wipe is needed...not 15. I also re-ordered the steps to more correctly reflect what should be done following the wipe.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Pretty sure the issue you are talking about has been mentioned numerous times, search around.

Also I would not use the task killers, more harm than good.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Lrod0175:
Good job on this compilation dude, its more work but following this guide will make mikg 1.3 run to its full potential!

Again, good job bro!

Lrod's evo
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Nice write up KC and so true.

Only thing I would emphasize more of is make sure you do a FULL WIPE before flashing. And by full, use amon-ra and factory reset, wipe data, cache, dalvik, system, boot, sd secure, and sd ext. Only need to do this ONE time, you don't need super duper steroid this and that wipe zips and you also don't need to wipe more than once.

I just flashed last night and followed those steps for wiping and have had ZERO issues. Market/VM was there, mms is working, no sense restarts, etc.

I did restore my apps with TB, but no data with them.

Only thing I haven't done yet is the memory steps. If and when I start getting sense restarts I'll do that.

Appbrain is a great app and is what I used before I bought TB.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Yup..No problem. :cool:

[EVO 4G Android Development] kc_hubbard:

[EVO 4G Android Development] kc_hubbard:
Did you do any of the steps listed in the guide I posted? It was shown a page or 2 back that the messaging apps were being killed/restarted due to memory management. I don't think it's safe to assume all the messaging problems are caused by TB restores.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mhuggins:
no i didnt because of the whole TB being the issue... but if you think it wouldnt hurt then ill give that a try
[EVO 4G Android Development] kiz.cyrus:

[EVO 4G Android Development] Lrod0175:
Ok, just my advice before you troubleshoot your Mms situation, nandroid what u have and follow the steps of the compilation by Kc_hubbard on page 555 and upgrade to 1.3, its faster and u get more free ram, its more work but trust me you'll love this rom even more.

Ditto. Trust me, I know it's a PITA to start over from scratch (I've probably done it 10 times over the last 5 or 6 days) but you will be much happier. 1.3 is WAY better than 1.2 to start with, and the added benefits from the memory management change and the swap file just add to it.

Guys.. I am not an EVO user but my friend needs help rooting and installing a custom ROM on his.. I've enjoyed Miks rom on other devices before (including my TB).. so I am interested in this rom for my friend.

Question is.. his evo is currently updated to the latest Gingerbread OTA that came out this week. His phone has never been rooted.

If I want to install this rom.. what is the best way to root this phone? (not sure if it's even possible to root the latest OTA).

Thanks guys.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kc_hubbard:
Don't take this the wrong way, I use Titanium Backup Pro for a lot of things. Having said as much, be careful using apps like these to restore. Stuff that resides in the /app directory is, generally speaking, ok to restore. Stuff that doesn't reside in /app....DO NOT RESTORE. There are so many differences between ROMs these days that you never know what you're gonna get restoring the non /app items.

When flashing a new ROM these days, what I do is:

1) use TBPro to backup all my user apps

2) sync all my apps to Appbrain

3) wipe/flash

4) use Appbrain to re-install the apps I want

5) use TBPro to restore data only to the select few apps I really care about having data restored to.

Wherever possible, I use the apps themselves to backup/restore. I'm finding that quite a few of them allow this now, and doing it this way keeps me from running into problems w/ TBPro restoring data that is not compatible w/ the newly flashed ROM.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kc_hubbard:
Someone correct me if I'm wrong here, but I don't think there is ROOT for a phone that's already on the stock OTA yet. New OTA is on hboot 2.16 I think and the current ROOT methods work thru 2.10.

Give it time...the geniuses around here will have the rooted soon I'm sure.
