Applications keep stopping on my EVO.

Im pretty sure this is not strictly ROM related and has more to do with the Gingerbread update for the EVO itself but I thought I would see what everyone else here had to say.

My phone keeps stopping when listening to streaming or cached audio. What I mean is, lets say I am listening to a podcost I down loaded to my phone. I'll get to just after the 30 minute mark in the cast and the phone just stops. In fact, Google Listen will just go away. I thought it was a listen issue, but I get the same response from Google Music, and TuneIn radio.

I know the official update was supposed to have fixed whatever streaming issue was introduced in Android, and I do have to admit that my streaming sources work alot better after the update then before. Pandora is still horrible and I have to resort to an edited version to keep it working properly.

I just cant figure out why my audio sources just stop. This happens everyday. I will be listening to a podcast that I downloaded and 30-40 minutes in it just quits. I wake up the phone and the app isnt even running anymore. I dont have a task killer so for the life of me I cant figure out what is stopping my apps.

Again, this happens with Google Listen, Google Music, Pandora (if I get it to stay streaming that long), and TuneIn Radio. It also doesnt matter whether the apps is live streaming or not.

Any Thoughts? This has only started happening after the official update.

Feature Request:

I would like to know if there is a file somewhere in the Sense operating environment that can be modified that will allow for changes to screen brightness. The brightness level of the screen, in most cases, is much brighter than it needs to be when automatic brightness is used. The screen is the biggest user of battery time and getting more control of this variable would be nice.

In CM7, you can set any level of brightness for any level the light sensor reads (I believe there are 10 different "ranges" of values).

There are three ways to set brightness. Directly using the slider, automatic brightness, and the little widget that does something like 33%, 66%, 100%. In most light situations, these just use more than necessary IMO.

So, here's the request: Is there a file that can be edited that would change the intensity of the screen when set on automatic brightness? In addition, is there a file that we can edit that would change the pre-set brightness level of the widget's settings?

Thanks in advance...

Is there a mod to increase the maximum of windows on the stock browser? Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] chunkyhao:
okay, must be something with my phone then. i also noticed that when i go to the market to update apps it will seem like it's starting to download. the notification bar shows the downloading icon and everything. then, the download stops immediately and the icon in the notification bar is gone.

another thing is if i try to move apps to the sd card it comes up with the error message: "failed to move application. there is not enough storage left." even when i have over 2gb of free space on sd card and about 200 mb free space for internal memory

anyone encounter these same issues? if not, I will reflash and see if that fixes it.

For the life of me I can't find where HTC ringtone trimmer puts the cut mp3's. I'd really like to have them after updates and whatnot.

I have Root Explorer so I figured I could find them... Any ideas?

CM7 is way diff cause they've built their own OS from scratch, yaknow.

Calk was able to change it for EViO ROMs. Haven't heard from him in a while but you could try and get in touch with him.

Great story

Was the first in line to get my 3D today and the only other guy there with me was getting one too. He had to be at least 60 and he was running MikG 2.1 and he said he is a Flashaholic. He was on the phone with his bestfriend who was also running MikG.

Great job.

Something is going on with the Mail app or yahoo accts. I would synk one yahoo acct. but not the other one and It works great with exchange acct.

I did download Yahoo mail app and synks with no problem.

I did made fresh install wiped all load all apps from appbrain.

ps: I did load the King's rom 7.3 and having same problem. I know it works good on Myans rom and sprint lovers rom. Any ideas?

I've been using VMHeap tool from AM and set the heap to 40+ MB (mine is actually set to max = 48 MB). No more Sense Reboots.
[EVO 4G Android Development] hercules rockefeller:
This is an issue with all EVOs since the recent OTA's came out, and to a lesser extent with all android handsets trying to sync with yahoo email (unless you're subscribed to Yahoo mail plus you may experience intermittant blocks on syncing email). My best guess is Yahoo wants you to either pay for yahoo mail plus or use the yahoo email app. Sprint has brought it to yahoo's attention but has not had a response as of yet.

Yahoo's made it a pain in the rear to get your email on a mobile phone for as long as I can remember now - I remember jumping through all sorts of hoops just to get an imap server address to set up email on my old windows mobile phones. Something about signing up through yahoo's asian portal and then switching back to the normal US site, because yahoo hand't yet rolled out yahoo mail plus in asia, stuff like that. With Android becoming so popular they caved in and allowed you to set it up via the default email client, but it looks like they're back to the same old games, only via the email app instead off yahoo mail plus.

This seems to be a Gingerbread related issue as opposed to a ROM related one. I have heard all over the place that we keep getting sense restarts as soon as you back out of pretty much any memory intensive application. I know I get it every time I back out of Plants vs Zombies.

Im gonna try the VMHeap app that was listed and see if that helps. This is Definitely a Gingerbread/Sense issue. It does not matter weather you are rooted, Stock, or not. We have not heard of an official fix for this yet. Hopefully soon.
[EVO 4G Android Development] El Ha$on:
I believe its a issue with sense 2.1 b/c I was the same issue with exchange ever since I loaded a sense 2.1 ROM. I would add my hotmail account via exchange and it wouldn't sync email properly. So I had to use the the stock email app from Google in order to get my email via exchange correctly.

Best of luck

FYI I never saw an issue on sprints ota update. Email worked fine.

I believe the idea is once the kernel code is released, they can lift the HDMI code from EVO and add it to the shift Kernel and rebuild.

How easy/feasable that is, I don't know. Because I don't know how modular/encapsulated the HDMI code is.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lucidox:
I may be wrong on this, but didn't a Aamikam implement wireless-n in a recent version of this ROM?
[EVO 4G Android Development] carrilloevo:
Awesome thanks!!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] coiledwire:
I don't have WiFi n to test. I know 2.0 had it, but reports are 2.1 doesnt. People who've needed WiFi n has flashed the 2.0 kernel to get it working again. It depends on which features are more important with regards to which kernel to run.

Go to the Good Links in my signature and there is a link to the epst.apk....install that and you should be able to get there.

The things he is asking you to change are the RTSP/HTTP settings if I am not mistaken which will ensure the phone doesn't try to route you through Sprint servers. (Also a link for exactly how to do what you need to in the Good Links)

With the update to gingerbread, regardless of flavor (Mik, stock, Fresh) is the 3G fix using the ##3282# + MSL to edit your connection to the network still needed or a good option?

On Froyo, changing the HTTPs to 0.0.0.0 made my 3G fly. Is it still beneficial to do this?

Procedures to increase HTC EVO download Speed for faster Music on 3G Network:

Now, first you will need to get your MSL, there are many ways of getting this MSL, you can call Sprint, download the application named MSL Reader from the Android Market place or from the CDMA workshop.

As soon as you get MSL, go to your phone and just simply key in as ##3282#

Now, Click on the Edit Mode and then click on the advanced.

Just Scroll down to HTTP PD Proxy Port & HTTP PD Proxy Address and change HTTP PD Proxy Port to 0

Now, after changing the HTTP PD Proxy Port to 0, you will now have to change HTTP PD Proxy Address also to 0.0.0.0

This is it. You can now enjoy speedy downloads and you can find that there will be a .20-.60 mbps increase in 3G speeds.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bluenadas:
The final word on ##DATA# or ##3282#

Here it is:

Changing your HTTP Settings for faster speeds

1. You will need to download the MSL Reader from the android Market

2. Write down the MSL it gives you

3. Dial ##3282# on your phones dial pad

4. A box should pop up asking you to select "Edit Mode" or "View Mode"

5. IF NOTHING HAPPENS....download and install this espt.apk

7. Select "EDIT View"

8. Enter your MSL when prompted

9. Select the "Advanced"

10. Scroll to the bottom of that page after it loads and select "RTSP/HTTP Setting"

11. Change the HTTP Settings to:

- HTTP Proxy IP: 0.0.0.0

- HTTP Proxy Port: 0

**You can also change the RTSP Settings to the same thing if you desire, some say it helps**

Original Settings (If you desire):

HTTP Proxy IP: pd.vog.sprintpcs.com

HTTP Proxy Port: 8085

RTSP Proxy IP: rtsp.vog.sprintpcs.com

RTSP Proxy Port: 554

Checking/Changing your EVDO setting

1. Complete steps 1-8 above

2. Select EVDO

3. Select the Preferred Mode and make sure it is set to Automatic (Or your desired setting)

i also use mikz 1.1 with stock rom and and battery is much better with stock ex. when fully charged to get to 80% mu up time is atleast 2hrs not 42 min. i did try misfits rom battery is worse but kings 2.3 gb is great with battery stock. and i did try virus gbs 2.3 great battery but kept rebooting. the only reason i am "complaining" is because my phone was not used at all no email no calls nothing and a up time of 42 min

I know....I'm sorry. I'm gonna work on that tonight.

You can find a pic of my stuff at themikmik.com in the MikFroyo v4.6x thread. It looks the same, but i'll start working on some new pics.

[EVO 4G Android Development] barleysoda:
Ok 42 minutes and down to 86%. That sounds more like something to complain about. I thought you said 5 hours and 42 minutes before and I thought that was pretty good.

Yeah I am getting pretty close to the same here. I pull the phone off my night stand in the morning and get ready for work. By the time I am setting in my office 45 minutes to an hour later, I look at my phone for the first time for the day and its already down in the upper 80's. With other roms and Net Kernels I might only be in the mid 90's with the same morning routine.

...either way I need a charger in all my vehicles, my desk at work, my nightstand, next to my lazy boy...etc.

My blackberry doesnt need a charge for three or four days. Of course neither does a dogs ass and no one wants to play with that either.
[EVO 4G Android Development] zeeraf:
would love to share screenies but dont know how take dem or how to upload them , i know its sad
[EVO 4G Android Development] barleysoda:
there are print screen apps in the market that will take a screen shot of your phone and save them out in jpg or whatever. Then you upload the picture to a photo sharing website such as photobucket. Then you reply to this thread and select the image icon in the tool bar and it will pop up a window asking for a link to your photo. Enter the link that photobucket gave you to your photo (you can find this on the right hand side of the page next to your picture on the photobucket website).
[EVO 4G Android Development] kc_hubbard:
I personally use an app called drocap2 to take screen caps. From there, I usually transfer them to my pc and/or copy them to my dropbox. Then you just use the Attachments button (little paper clip) from inside XDA to attach the pic I just saved.
[EVO 4G Android Development] b0tes:
I hear you. Aamikam posted the other day that he is working on beta 4 and hopefully some of the basic bugs will be ironed out first, at which point I'm sure custom kernels will only be a matter of time [if not sooner from the other devs working more closely with Virus' version of the port, which will hopefully be universal].

For a beta, I have to acknowledge that the battery is still much better than stock HTC Sense 1.0 Froyo that my EVO came loaded with originally.
[EVO 4G Android Development] rickpref:
I don't know why but with this ROM my battery is amazing. Yesterday I had 18 hours and 40% battery left before I plugged it in. And that was with a lot of phone calls throughout the day. The only thing that drained the battery fast was when surfing the web and GPS, but Idle or phone calls the battery hardly drains.

this method will insert the picture into the message and your picture will fill the page. (depending on the picture size)

This method will show the picture in those tiny thumbnails that you click on to make it big. This method makes it hard to see the picture if you are reading this forum using your EVO. Chasing the little pop up window that displays the picture can be very stimulating but eventually you just want to find who did this to you and rape his gold fish or slap his mom.

However this method is much easier for the poster. Each has its P&C's

[EVO 4G Android Development] jdeloach:

Custom kernels are not available for Sense-based Gingerbread yet. You can flash some of them but stuff will break. For example, Net's kernels break the camera. Not surprised at all that wifi doesn't work for you.

HTC has to release the code for their kernel before our dev's can do their magic with them.

Great Rom, imo

Came back after using the earlier versions,

On the sense lockscreen. It allows you access to the apps on top of the ring, even if you have a locked password in place

I like to lock my phones with a pin, but on The sense 3.0 screen if I drag the phone or email icon onto the ring, the phone opens up even without typing in my security pin,

Is there a way to fix this

You might poke around on your SD card, it might be some how finding it on there.

If you have spare SD Card, try installing fresh ROM from that.

This reminds me of the Lost Laptap applications you can install on Laptops to help track them down. Really nasty to remove they. They go right into the BIOS and install themselves even when you wipe the HDD.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mswlogo:
I checked this on my phone with fresh install, new Kernel, etc.

And they were already all zeroed out. I assume Mik is doing this somewhere in the install.

If you reprofile it might put them back to non-Zero.

[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
I believe it will replace the status bar only, yes.
[EVO 4G Android Development] coiledwire:
Where the status bar is defined is central to themes. So I would guess if you flash the gb status bar over the red theme, you'll loose the themed pull down and other elements within the theme will return back to stock. But you'll have the gb status.

Do a nand backup and try flashing this way. If its no good, restore back.
