You were correct in that "push" does exist in the stock app, I've never used the 'exchange' portion of it so I never saw the 'push' option. I just set up my Gmail account through Exchange and immediately saw the constant syncing that others have reported. Must suck the battery dry fast! I'd like to use this as I prefer it to the Gmail app but will try again when (if) a fix is discovered.

[EVO 4G Android Development] QuiQNeZZ:
Well depending on how much email you chose to download and attachment settings and what not, it'll sync at first for a while but then settle. After that if it starts doing it, then you know it's not working right.

[EVO 4G Android Development] xlGmanlx:
the best way to test it is to do only like 3 days of mail to sync so its not taking forever and only do like 10K download per email in settings and ensure its working before you crank it up. Sometimes throwing too much mail at it to sync gives it "push brain freeze"
[EVO 4G Android Development] kkwus74:

Guys I know about the Fixes for the Market about Clearing Cache, and Data and Rebooting, I read it here.

The problem is that I did that, and about 15 of the 80 or so apps I have came back Only. The rest are still out there as FREE and Not Installed or Update. I can't figure out why. I even did the whole dl some random app and reboot and still nothing.

Has anyone else had this problem?

I just think it's weird that only certain apps are there, like my Handcent Font Pack and Skin, but not Handcent itself. :confused:

So that's the thing, that pretty much means I wont be able to update those apps, unless I install them twice then, right?

Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] Lrod0175:
Like I said, those r my settings, and I shared them with u guys, is up to u and whatever settings you'd like to have on your evos.

I don't have any syncing or authentication errors, but again every phone is different as well as the fact that not everybody uses yahoo as their email, in terms of battery life; I get 8 to 12 hours depending on usage (wifi, 4g, etc)

This is a sense rom hence battery life is gonna be an issue, but for me 8 to 12 hours is good enough and it's more than I ever got with stock.

Mikg is the best sense 2.1 rom out there right now, and aamikam is a great developer, I know he will address the syncing problem if is a system related or app related, the little issues I had (a bit of sense restarts, Facebook pics on the messanger disappearing) when away with a full wipe and format of my SD card as outline on page 555.

In closing; there is not perfect rom, but for me this is the best I've tried so far.

[EVO 4G Android Development] frankie51:
would using setcpu to underclock this rom while the screen is off help improve battery life?
[EVO 4G Android Development] QuiQNeZZ:
Oh ****, I think I figured it out! So it seems by going through the automatic exchange setup it leaves out the domain name which is google.com. For the hell of it I chose manual setup and sure enough the domain name was missing from the field. If you put in google.com it seems like everything works ok. Even with multiple accounts setup. No constant synching or errors so far.

Also, if you do the auto setup and go into settings afterwards, that domain field is missing completely so you can't even edit it after the fact. So Htc messed up there unless it was messed up on the port over. So if you already set it up this way, delete the account and redo manually and add in google.com as the domain and you should be good to go with push email.

I'm gonna go test and download more of my mail and see if they come down with no issues.

Edit: Fyi, the server address is m.google.com. If you hit next after putting in your email and password then back and manual setup, it'll put it in for you. But if you hit manual setup from the start it'll put in gmail.com I think which is wrong.

So server is m.google.com

Domain is google.com

[EVO 4G Android Development] thowell3:
This is a great rom. Been running it for almost a week and I love it, except for one thing. I can't connect to the 3g network. i only get 1x connectivity. Ive tried disconnecting and reconnecting the network, and ive reflashed, and i have the latest radio. Ive searched and searched this thread, but as far as I can tell it has been addressed. Im a semi- noob and normally at this point Id just flash a new rom, but I really am liking this one. Apologies if this issue has already been addressed

I guess because I use back up apps. I never worry about what's in the market under my apps, except updates....

That's what I was thinking, although I'd rather use the Market App.

Amon RA.

Just an FYI for anyone else with issues.

I was having problems flashing any of the new GB 2.3 sense roms. Both clockwork and amon would fail with an assert boot.img error. Older versions of amon ra would flash but I would receive boot loops. I am on hardware version 002 with hboot .76.

Anywho, upgrading the hboot to 2.02 fixed both the assert issue and the boot looping issue. I am able to flash all of the GB roms with no issues now.

One issue with this ROM so far. If I make a call with a BT Headset while locked the phone is left unlocked when the call is finished. It should stay locked. The whole point of screen lock is so you don't bump button (most often due to a call waking it). But the screen locker does this for you :)

[EVO 4G Android Development] merkk:
Typically you don't have to do a factory reset if you are just upgrading your Rom. I.e. going from Rom xyz 1.x to 1.xx

If you are installing an entirely different Rom then you have to factory reset. Some people will tell you to always reset everything no matter what. Sometimes a full reset can fix problems. I usually don't do a full reset if I am just updating. If I run into a problem after the update then ill try doing a full reset.

The compass is broken. The problem is in the kernel, it’s not the rom’s fault.

Htc, Sprint and Google are aware of the problem.

Hey, I've searched the thread but I haven't found an answer to my question. I'm receiving very poor battery life, it's draining from 100% to 0% in a matter of 3-6 hours. The reason I think it is, because the data constantly keeps changing from 1x to 3G and back. Any idea what might be up? Thanks.

Just some quick things, make sure your mobile data and GPS are off, unless you are specifically using them.

Push Mail, etc. I can go 2 days on stock battery.

This is the first phone I keep WIFI on though because it really does do quite well on battery with it on and it may use less mobile data and actually save battery.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Well then it's obvious you haven't been on a mik rom much, because the only update I've seen him put out was MikG v1.02 to v1.03. He rebuilds every single rom from the ground up so a full wipe, yes factory reset, is recommended on each on of his roms.

If you don't then you shouldn't report bugs until you do so, because the only bug would have been the fact that you didn't fully wipe.;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] sicilykill:
Did you upgrade the radio and pri or are you still on the old one?
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Well I'm happy I was wrong. :D

It might be because chogardjr just made a minimal theme and maybe he didn't touch the resources.apk when he themed.
