This rom won't sync my all of my Google contacts...any suggestions?

Other than that it's pretty solid. I do wish however that it had the latest carousel screen transition effect.
[EVO 4G Android Development] billbowers:
A few pages back was this fix...

Settings> voice input and output>text-to-speech settings>install voice data

Try that and see if it helps... fixed my problem.

Ok my battery is draining fast! I have a question about wakelock. I'm on 1.04, 1.77 pri. My times are:

up time- 1:57 mins

awake time- 1:02 mins

time display on- 47 mins

Does this look ok?
[EVO 4G Android Development] billbowers:
Yeah, me too... that would be sweet.
[EVO 4G Android Development] trancefreak64:
I Successfully installed 1.4 without battery drain. Before I installed 1.4 I wanted to try another rom on this site which is rather popular. I never nanded back and tried again to reinstall 1.4.

After I nanded back and gave it a shot again yesterday it worked flawlessly for me.

I also noticed for my wife's Evo (THIS IS IMO) if you flash the stock leak here from xda of the latest Evo OTA then wipe /flash new ROM variant like miks ROM it works for me like a fresh install. Of course after performing the proper wiping procedure.

BTW This ROM has to be my #1 ROMs that I have used since owning an EVO and I have tried a lot of ROMs. The gps lock on this rom has been the fastest I have also ever seen or used.

Much respect to Mik and to all those who have help and supported this community

+1. I'm having the same problem or it will just not pick up anything at all.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MrDrumngun:
My battery is draining super quick too. Should I flash a new kernel perhaps?
[EVO 4G Android Development] rccwill:
Try this

Menu>Settings>Applications>Manage Applications>Gmail>

First Force stop then Clear data

Second restart sync and you should be fine.
[EVO 4G Android Development] shaun0207:

Can i flash the landscape rosie mod over Cho's full blue them ?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jchilders04:
Thats just what happens with stock htc kernals. Carry around a usb cable with you until the release the source code.

Just wondering, since the Shift gingerbread just dropped and this being a shift port...does that mean a new MikG will be coming out?

I only have one comment. Since flashing 1.04, I have not had one single FC. My stock, unrooted Froyo gave me more issues than this. Not that 1.03 was giving me any issues either, but this is fantastic work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mswlogo:
I just tried it for grins and it works fine.

My guess is, it's SDCard related (as are many issues).
[EVO 4G Android Development] charlesvw9:
You could install Vlingo and go under speech to text settings and use Vlingo as the default.
[EVO 4G Android Development] crawform:
I've been using 1.03 since it came out and generally love it. This past week I've had the unfortunate pleasure of using my cell phone for several conference calls that were each several hours long. On every call (regardless of the number I called) my line drops after 1 hour of talk time. I reconnect, then get dropped again after another hour of talk time. Seems very strange, almost like a carrier limitation built in (of course I am on Sprint unlimited, so there should not be any such limitation.)

Hardware: 0003

PRI: 1.90_003

Baseband: 2.15.00.11.19

Kernel:2.6.35.10-g4e39384

Anyone else experience this?
[EVO 4G Android Development] bluenadas:
For those having terrible battery drain issues the issue is most likely due to flashing the new ROM with your phone plugged in (USB or Charger).

You need to download Battery Calibration from the market.

Charge your phone until it shows 100%.....unplug the charger and wait a few seconds and the % should drop to 99 or maybe even less. Plug the phone back in and allow it to charge to 100% again...

Essentially you are trying to get the current charge to show as close to 4200mV as possible.

After that hit the battery calibration button and UNPLUG your phone.

DO NOT

plug it in again until it completely drains and turns itself off. Keep turning it on (it'll shut itself off) again and again until it will not even come on.

After that, charge it while it is off....turn it on once it's done and use it as normal.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ItsDon:
I may give this a shot, thanks for the tutorial. My problem is this:

When the phone sleeps, it sleeps incredibly well. It would probably last for weeks if I never activated the screen. Much better than stock OTA.

When the screen is on it slurps the battery like there's no tomorrow. Much worse than stock OTA.

Is this normal for this rom?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Moricon:
No it is not. At least from my experience
[EVO 4G Android Development] bluenadas:
If you have not calibrated the battery after the ROM flash that is most likely your problem. Essentially the battery level system is lost since it still contains data from the last ROM, plus the bad info being plugged in during the flash and then the data it has gathered since the flash.

Here is a screen shot showing you the difference in my phone from before and after the calibration. Give it a shot and allow a day or two for it to settle down a bit under normal usage.

Also understand that once HTC releases the Kernal source code SBC kernals will be released that will greatly increase battery life on this ROM.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kkryter:
Once I got the kids to bed and everything else settled last night I gave this new spin-off that includes the 3D Rosie a try and I have to say that, as always with this ROM, I'm super impressed! Just as stable and sweet as the regular 1.04 but with the added bonuses. The carousel effect sometimes stutters a little bit and is therefore not quite as smooth as before, but I deem it a worthy trade off for the eye candy and 3.0 widgets. Great work as always, looking forward to continued awesomeness from this ROM as it just keeps getting better and better. Thanks devs!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] bluenadas:
Still getting the issue. It seems to take some time so I am beginning to wonder if it is not something to do with memory allocation. I vaguely remember seeing something about this somewhere on XDA but since the search feature is kaput, no dice there for now...
[EVO 4G Android Development] billbowers:
My favorite part has to be the photo grid widget... so damn cool.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
ok guys... seems like the new speedy ota is sense 2.1... so that means... mikg 2.xx will popup before a sense 3.0 cuz i need to remake a lot of mods and opt things all over again.

im pretty sure it will not have mem issues and such, and that batt will improve a lot cuz it will no longer be based on a test rom.

i will try beta sense 3.0 rom sooner actually but nothing official with sense 3.0

basically v2.xx will have none test roms packages in it.

Just flashed this the other day. First off, the kernal raped my battery worse than an episode of Law & Order:SVU, but I flashed a new one. No biggie. My REAL issue is my camera. Both still and video screens give me a blank white screen. I can still take pictures and video, but cannot see the preview.
[EVO 4G Android Development] paulg1981:
Can't flash a kernel without breaking cameras, kernel source hasn't been released yet so they are not fully compatible until that happens
[EVO 4G Android Development] R32_Rocky:
Where you located? I am near Dallas. I too have been dropping too much down to 1x. So I called Sprint and found out there is a tower down in the area, and it IS effecting signal strength for a lot of folks here. In the Calk's radio post on here, I posted the info about this, as well as the Sprint case # for the down tower. I was told there is NO ETA when it will be fixed. ARGH!!!!! If Sprint don't fix it soon, well, the EVO is no longer the one and only KING of Android anymore, nor is it the only 4G phone either.
[EVO 4G Android Development] alhail99:
ok I'm sick of this

I can't make any phone call

I'm only connected to 3G and whenever I try to make a phone call it says "internet calls has not been setup" or something similar to this. I tried to look for an option to disable this and couldn't find one

I had the same problem with Virus's GB rom
[EVO 4G Android Development] kc_hubbard:
I actually basically the same questions a few months back, concerning using a dark theme versus a lighter theme. Someone on here is an electrical engineer (jklong maybe) and explained that on our screens, it doesn't matter. Basically a pixel is either turned on or off w/ nothing in between. So, if that filter app is only altering the warmth and not the intensity, in theory, it wouldn't save any power.

Hope I'm remembering this correctly. I could go search through all my posts looking for it, but I'm too lazy. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
ok guys... im still at work on b4... the thing is im probably gonna rebuild a lot cuz i have newer packages from newer leaks.

like i said... this rom is made from like 5 diff other sense 2.1 roms... and i keep trying to hit the newest packages from each one of those 5 diff leaks.

thats kinda the bad news though... cuz its tone of work... and that means it will be a while until this rom will see a "final" version... but on a good side... i can promise u guys that eventually u will see only the newest sense 2.1 packages.

Here I go trying to recall something from previous posts (at least this time it's not one of mine that I can't remember) but I remember several times that people have been able to get sprint to give them airave/airvana devices (they attach to your home high speed internet to create a cell hot spot) when towers go down near them.

It's worth a shot.

GPS Issues

I've tried everything mentioned in this thread to get GPS to work and mine still only works part of the time. When it works, it works GREAT. When it doesn't, my phone reboots.

Tried uninstalling maps, clearing cache/dalvik, re-installing maps from the market. Have used GPS Status to reset GPS. I've cleared app data for maps and gps status. It's just weird.

Gonna keep working on it, but just wondered if anyone else who reported the that the got their GPS working after it wasn't at first has seen what I'm seeing?
[EVO 4G Android Development] blackroseMD1:
Yep...that's exactly what happens to me. GPS will work great for a while, then I'll fire up Maps or Foursquare and BOOM, reboot.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kc_hubbard:
Glad to know it's not just me. Have a nand of MikFroYo4.61 to fallback on if needed but I like the Sense2.1. I'm gonna stick it out on this ROM for a while. Battery life isn't as good as Froyo but I imagine most of that has to do w/ the fact that we don't have a good kernel for this yet.
[EVO 4G Android Development] samsunghater:
bootloader, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1036706&page=47 thats the link to it looks like the same software in the rom but i flashed this thru bl and it made my speeds a hell of alot faster
[EVO 4G Android Development] vin255764:
GPS works fine here,but:

I can confirm that something is not right with location services.

-When I turned on locatoin (>Settings>location>use gps satellites) I had 1 reset.

-When tryed to use Maps,it downloaded tts from market,after installation I had second reset

-When used Navigation,it did 1 more reset.

-Another thing is after soft reset location keeps turning off.I dont know if its random or every time.

All that happened only during FIRST TIME USE.

After that I have no issues at all.

I used to have similar bug in windows mobile TP2 ROM after baking dialer packages from GSM HD2,but in Droid I have no clue where to look for a fix lol

Flip clock bugs me alot more then those things.I wish I knew how to disable 1:2 flip animation..

Whoa--can't believe I missed this.

I'm going to nandbackup and give this a whirl, and report back later.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kc_hubbard:
Likely not as they are AOSP based. We need something that HTC Sense can use. Net's kernels have been great on my phone (I just posted about this in that thread...we'll see). His are universal in that you can use them on AOSP or Sense. Far as I know, his are the only universal kernels.
[EVO 4G Android Development] damage_them:
iight..thanks for the info
[EVO 4G Android Development] yamaford:
Any GB rom has that problem. Its the kernel you flashed. Gb sense only works with the stock kernel.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bluenadas:
Your camera issue is directly related to the kernal you flashed. Go back to the OTA kernal for GB and the camera issue is fixed.

As for the battery...go back a page or 3 and I have some directions there to sort it out a bit. However, until HTC releases the kernal source and new SBC kernals can be made it is just something we have to live with.
[EVO 4G Android Development] moseso:
The "Speedy" is the name used by HTC for one of its phone models, known in the market as something else (don't know which it is, actually) -- just like the EVO4G is called the "Supersonic" by HTC.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
It's the Evo Shift from which this ROM is built/ported from.

Has anyone compared this rom with Synergy? I may be seeing things, but i swear that Synergy is running at a higher resolution. Everything doesn't seem as large on synergy, kind of like how the desire HD sense 2.0 ports were. How can this be if they are both ports of speedy/shift?

Ok guys, I need some help. I'm running 1.04, and I have my phone connected to my job's wifi, but it requires a log in every time you reconnect. Problem is the phone's wifi keeps disconnecting even when it is just sitting there. I checked in wifi settings, advanced and sleepy is off and best wi-fi is checked. Is there anything else that I am missing to keep it from disconnecting every ten minutes and having to re-sing in? Thanks.

Sorry that I have to comment... But I am not and never have been a part of the team that work on synergy.

I hope he did... But I don't really know if he did or not cuz I don't follow up on their progress.

Anyone else have crazy battery drain, in a mater of 20 minutes dropped 10%, this is on fresh install and no programs install, might be old battery
[EVO 4G Android Development] blakskyszz:
Yeah...getting bad drainage on the battery too. For the life of me I don't know why the display is using 70-80% consistently. I re-flashed the rom and same thing. I have auto brightness off, set the brightness to @15-20% and time out @ 30secs. Anyone have any clues as to why the display is using so much battery?
[EVO 4G Android Development] akilestar:
Two things,

One search this thread and you will probably find 20 posts explaining how to fix this.

Two this rom can not trickle charge meaning your battery will fully charge, then drain itself to 90% then start charging again. All the time showing a full charge. So you could actually have your battery drop 10% in a matter of seconds.

i was having really bad battery drain too and tried all sorts of things to stop the drain TILL i installed 'autokiller memory optimizer' from the market.it changes the min values for android.you can try the presets for the min values.......its all trial and error till it suits your needs.....this made my battery last a few more hours at the least with same usage.hope it helps.no harm trying anyway i guess:p
[EVO 4G Android Development] wryun:
I noticed it as well.

I decided to stop using the clock/weather widget, even though it looks pretty rad with the flip thingy and animations.

I also turned off Weather sync, and only have "update/refresh when opened" checked.

I switched back to my fav clock widget "clockr".

Also, I installed SetCPU and created a "Screen Off" profile to take CPU down to 384min/max when my screen is off. The app costs $ in the market, but the dev gives it to XDA members for free. Search for it.

*I do not use task killers. IMO & experience they are not necessary.*

Battery is better! Also worthy to note I have witnessed, and read from others, that the first 10% of battery drops at a faster rate than the rest. Not sure why or how, but I know there are kernels (not for this ROM) that prevent this.
[EVO 4G Android Development] louforgiveno:
imo, battery gains longevity after a couple full charges and full drains. i don't wipe batt stats, just give the rom a break-in period.
