Seems I don't have a2sd up and working then. There's only a little bar for phone storage and for SD storage. No a2sd. Do I have to install build 1.0 and then 1.1 fresh, after i divide my sd card up? I flashed your Rom and then I added ext to my sd card. I'll read up on it since I haven't tried to do anything with a2sd before.

Only problem I've had with your build so far has been receiving some pictures texted to me."download unsuccessful" of a 595kb pic. I've been enjoying the font you added. Makes it unique to everyones and looks pretty sweet.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
Oh yeah as long as you have a ext partiton before you flash the main base rom it'll set up the a2sd during the flashing proccess. Otherwise the rom won't support ext or even know it's there
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] twizt3d:
its listed as stable on rom manager, but im already having issues.... mostly being im grounded... aparently the old lady gets angry when you lose all your anniversary pictures that you stupidly moved from the sd card to your phone so you can format the sd card, and forget to move them back, then wipe to a new rom.

and i was just asking about the rom manager. But now i know, and knowing is half the battle!
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
Yeah it's on rom manager because I guess toast thought it was stable, but that's why it's not updated on toast's thread yet. For more information about it I would head over there ;) hopefully it'll be up soon, I provided him with a full logcat
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] twizt3d:
I restored rokmod already for my pictures, gonna leave it... I will say in the 10min I had it installed, I had no data issues lol.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] ColeSloth:
Thought that might be the case. I'll re-flash the rom tomorrow to test out how it's working and let you know.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
Sounds good buddy :D, I think I'm only using about half of my ext partition.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] ColeSloth:
Been using the a2sd since yesterday and everything is working great so far with it.

Also, to get mms pictures to come through on my phone without failure from some people on the included "Go SMS" apk I had to go into it's settings>mms settings>check the fill APN configuration manually> and set mmsc to "http://mms.sprintpcs.com", leaving the others empty.

So far I've had one time when my screen went all black and then started acting funny. If I'd hit the back button the screen would look normal, but then when I'd try switching screens again it would be back to black and I almost had to pull the battery before i got it to reboot. If it happens again I'll get you a Logcat, but I wasn't near a computer I could do it at when it happened yesterday (before I started using a2sd).
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
If it's a go sms issue don't bother reproing a logcat lol. Just use another messaging app, or report it to the dev on the market
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
Update should be soon, with more theme chooser apks from the market in the full version, as well as new wallpapers
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] ColeSloth:
Separate issue's. The screen problem did not involve Go SMS. I just threw the Go SMS info in to let anyone else know what to do if they were having the same problems, since you included the apk in your custom build.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
oh ok, yeah I really like the go sms messaging app, and I did notice the default settings are a little strange. thanks for pointing that out, I'll check into it and see if the go dev team can make some adjustments. The new updates are almost done uploading.

v2.1 is up, both full and no wipe version. I recommend flashing the full version to get all the latest theme apk and wallpaper updates, but it's not required to flash unless your coming from any other rom other than rockmod.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
I decided not to post screen shots since the stock rom is stock cm7 theme other than the theme apks in the theme chooser app. I'll update the flashable font's and windows animations asap, probably later on tonight.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] twizt3d:
nice work on the updates

*cheers*
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
Np, the main thing is I wanted to get the recovery for the fix charging while off by koush but make it easy to install without having to go through adb or fastboot to install it. Of course the latest rom is based on cm7.0.2.1 and has toast's latest kernel which really helps with battery charging faster and not draining as much.

Also on a side note, my current vm heap settings under cm settings > performance, may be too low for this kernel. If you get some lag I would suggest change it to 32m and rebooting. Battery is still good for me on these settings
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] jumpin69:
Love the look of the rom but I flashed the full rom and it came up but I am not able to get out on the data network. 3G appears at the top but it gives me an error connecting anytime I go to the browser or try to setup Google. Any ideas?

Thank you for doing this ROM
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] kellysa111:
So either its something with the phone, or I'm really stupid.

I can't turn off my phone by pushing the power button. And when I turn off the screen and turn it back on, the lockscreen won't come on. It just unlocks. Any ideas on how I can get the phone to turn off?
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
It sounds like you may need to flash the full (wipe) version. Which rom were you on before?
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
Honestly I have no idea, I've never experienced that before. Also, if possible try to mininize how many roms you have on your sdcard at a time. The roms uses a lot of sdcard space to install everything, which makes it possible for a2sd. Try to clean out old files or back them up to your pc and delete them. Mostly just other roms take up a lot of space on the sd.

Also I'm working on a backup and restore apps for recovery soon, which will make things a lot easier ;)
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] jumpin69:
Thank you for the response. I just went ahead and wiped again and reflashed and it worked the second time. I also took your advice and moved the backups I had off the CD card. Love the ROM I am curious does this ROM inherit the GPS lock issues that some have seen on the CM7 roms?

Really look forward to the backup and restore apps :)
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
Glah to hear, I believe the cm team added gps fixes You can view it under cm settings, system, view changelog. Or maybe that's only for supersonic, not sure.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] markdexter:
Looks like a great ROM Sparks! Your ROMS for the My Touch 3G, where outstanding, when I got my Cappy, I gave my wife my HTC Magic still Running Sparksmod to this day!!

Starting to wish I had a Evo now!!!:rolleyes:
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Oh dude, great to see you again

Yeah dude this rom is pretty sick
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] twizt3d:
My datas still on and off, but I'm thinking its a cm thing, I've found various settings and such, but right now I've switched to evervolve for some testing.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
I think that's a nightly issue actually. I could be wrong
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
That's what I was thinking to, my data still cuts to 1x from time to time, it's not unbearable. Also since the newer recovery doesn't support backup of sd-ext, I've made two flashables. On for backing up apps and one for restoring. It will create a folder on your sdcard called TimeWarp (blah's idea), where all of the apk's will be found compressed just like titanium backup. Make sure you have enough space on your sdcard for the app backup. It also backs up app-private.

[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
Lol, yeah bro I wish you had a evo to
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] twizt3d:
Good news everyone, the slime pipes are working again..... err umm I meant data.. 7021 seems to run flawlessly for me, two days now, data seems to work everywhere, no setting changes.

One more question how ever, it seems one important setting change option for me is missing now. Under sound, and phone settings, u used to be able to change key presses from short tones to long tones. Ie. If you call ur vm and need to enter ur pin, when u press numbers while in call sometimes they register sometimes they don't. Also if you call a dispatch/call center and need to enter ur account number. This can become an issue as the key presses sometimes register, sometimes don't.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
Awsome, also I'll be adding a fix permissions to the no wipe updates so hoprfully we won't have issues updating from one rom to another ect. I'll also be updating a new backup and restore apps method which will be in the rom. This will only be needed if your using a2sd, but I must say it's a lot faster then using titanium backup. It can also be used for basicly any rom. It doesn't restore the data though, only the apps. So if your not using a2sd I would just use nandroid backup and restore to swich roms.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] twizt3d:
By chance did you get any time to work on a vvm fix to be integrated into the rom? My posted work around seems to work flawlessly for the time being otherwise.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
No I have not. Just set it up manually as stated in previous post...
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
ClockWorkMod Recovery v3.1.0.1

I compiled Koush's latest recovery v3.1.0.1 if anyone's interested. Flash in recovery and then go to advanced > reboot recovery
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] thronnos:
Thanks dude. +1
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
Update should be soon, I'm working on a new kernel at the moment. So far have added swap support for compcache settings and bfs
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
Well the kernel isn't being so nice right now. Once usb tethering works I might be able to call it stable enough for use. Would anyone like to see this htc clay theme in the next rom?

[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] dblock3nine:
Nice looking theme, I would like to see it on the next rom. Also can't wait for the next update, ever since I flash ur Rom its been the best so far. Great work man, keep it up :-)

Sent using Shift using CM7 RockMod
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] yohshua:
good job ^_^
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
Thanks yoshi, the next rom will be much better and also be available on rom manager. Rignt now I'm waiting for the official recovery from koush to roll out that will work with the new revised scripts. Flashing time and rom size should also be much smaller but still contain everthing as before :D
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
I spoke to soon, 3.2.0.1 is available on rom manager :cool:
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
OP updated with new version. If you want the a2sd feature it has to be a ext4 partition on the sdcard and not ext3 ;)

I'll be working on adding more things to the kernel soon for the next release :D

Also Rom should be on rom manager soon so keep your eye out for it!
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
Kernel source update

New kernel branch and full source can be seen here:

https://github.com/pbeeler/htc-kernel-msm7x30/tree/pbeeler-htc-cm-2.6.35-speedy
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] jsp254:
downloading the new version now! has anyone else had trouble getting cwm to recognize ext part?
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
I don't make cwm recovery, koush does.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] XtraWho:
What is the best working kernel to use with this rom? Seems like the one that was included drains the battery fast.

Thanks
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
Well the thing is I made this kernel to run good underclocked. I'm on 806mhz and It works good. Also play around with the compcache setting, lowering it to 18% default should help. I'll probably change the default setting in the next release but for now just testing. Just play around with those two setting until we get good reports on certain settings ;)
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] XtraWho:
^will do thanks sparksco
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
Has anyone ever tried minmax govenor? I'm testing it on kernel #4 and it seems to help battery. So far these settings work good for me. Max clock speed 806mhz, compcache ram usage 18%, vm heap size 24m
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] Rob_ec:
Working pretty good!! I got pretty good battery life now ;)
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
Thanks I'll work on changing the default setting on the next update however if you change it manually it's just as good ;)
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] Rob_ec:
Yeah only problem I've had is the keyboard light but I just close the keyboard and open it that seems to work. Anyone have a o.c kernal working with 2.3.4.1 ??
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
I'm pretty sure the kernel sparks put in his rom is already oc

We got more changes for the next release
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
It's stock oc 1.5ghz. If you mean you want to oc to 1.8ghz like x99 kernel, I'll see if blah can help me out for to maked it uv. I've been working on adding bfs and it keeps giving me errors no matter what I do. So bfs may be a no go :(

About keyboard lights I haven't had any issues so far with that
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Ill be home Friday night and get deving Saturday morning
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
Awsome, well I don't know how but I got bfs working, lol. It was a pain but it was sure worth it :)
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] jsp254:
As far as my cwm question, it was just that. I was just wondering if any of you guys had any problems with it while setting your system up for this rom. No biggie. Just wondering.

Anyway, I'm loving this rom. The htcclay theme is really nice. I haven't been able to test all the features yet that I will need most. IE - wired and wireless tether, gps while moving, and a few other things.

One problem I've had was trying to install other themes. I tried a few that would not install. I reverted back to cm7.0.3.1 to see if it was the theme. It installed fine on that rom. I went back to this rom and tried changing the install location to see if that helps. It did not. These themes were tmo/cm7 themes and adw themes. I'm not sure what would not allow them to install.

Best I can tell, this is my daily for now.

Kudos on an nice rom!
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
That's strannge, can you provide us a logcat when you try to install an app?

It'll help us figure it out
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
I'll release the new kernel I've been working on later. So far it has bfs, smartass and minmax
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] jsp254:
I just saw this. Sorry. I got to get up at 0430 and its 2336 right now. When I get home tommorrow night, I'll post it. I'll post one with auto, one with internal, and one with external. I'll also post the link to the theme. Sorry bros, beds a calling. Peace.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
I posted a new kernel update earlier if you think it's the kernel

[KERNEL]Cyanogenmod-2.6.35.13/BFS Scheduler
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
Don't install this kernel version over the latest nightly, some things like wifi seem to not be working. I'll work on a updated version as I really want to stay up-to-date haha
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] craven667:
love the rom but i want to know what clock that is and were to get it
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
It's a paid app on the market called beautiful widgets. Then you just go into the settings and download any frre clock skins and apply.

Also good and bad news on the upcoming rom update. Based on lastest source with a new oc, uv kernel with smartass gov on default and minmax is still there as an option. Withthe bfs patch for the kernel I ran into compatability issues so that will not be in this next update. Also I have to test the new rom and kernel to make sure I don't get boot loops like the latest nightlies.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
New version is up and it's already up on rom manager with the new kernel :)
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] craven667:
ok a question i have roam control and this rom both can make you roam BUT when i try to i roam in sprint but sprint sucks at my house how can i roam in vz or att
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] jsp254:
I don't think you can roam on at&t. I may be wrong, but I think all they have is gsm service. Sprint and vzw are cdma.

However, this brings me to this question. When I am roaming, this rom and all others show me as still being on sprint. Even when I do a speedtest, it shows as sprint when I'm positive I'm on vzw. What gives?
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
Cyanogenmod is a community based distrobution. I just compile the roms from the latest source and add in my own tweaks.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] evolone:
I'm not concerned about the 'no wipe' version but is the 'stable 2.3.4' statement a legacy comment? Is the newest 2.3.4.1.1 rom version still considered unstable?
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] drob311:
Sparks, check your pm's... Thanks man! :)
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
No it's stable. I thought the screen on/off animation were broke. But if you set windows animations and transitions in spare parts to fast, it's so fast that you can't see the animations
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] evolone:
LMAO, good one. Happy you figured it out! :P

...time to install
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] evolone:
Problem found.

Added 1280Mb ext4 partition to end of sdcard. Installed rom everything worked fine until using Titanium to restore apps resulting in the ext4 partition getting converted to ext3 partition.

Can somebody replicate and possibly offer solution? (other than not using Titanium to restore apps, I require this functionality...without breaking my the functionality between the rom and the sdcard)

This might be an issue to bring up with Titanium developers?

Thanks!
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
Can you prove any of this? I've never had that problem and I always use tb. Your sdcard is probably too low of a class to run a2sd on gingerbread. The minimum is a class4
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] evolone:
I have a class 10.

http://www.supermediastore.com/prod...ss-10-turbo-flash-memory-card-with-sd-adapter

Numbers here are a little exaggerated the card reads about 13MB/sec and writes 10MB/sec (these number are consistent)

What data would need to be provided to prove it?

I use gparted to format the sdcard, flash rom, install apps fromm market etc (these apps go to sdcard ext4 partition no problem), when I restore apps from titanium whatever apps that were put on the ext4 sdcard partition will not launch (android gives a 'need to format sdcard' error) I reboot and any data on the fat32 partition is readable now but ext4 is not. I load gparted back up and it shows that ext4 is now ext3.

I tried converting ext3 back to ext4 with no luck having android see the data on that partition. Re-flash rom and everything is back to normal until the titanium app restore.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
hmm, that is very strange because I myself have a class 4 sandisk and it works fine

You installed the first partition as fat32 on gparted? I use gparted as well and I always format the fat32 first and ext4 second.

adb logcat

This will tell you if there's any errors on the very top of the logcat. Without that I can't really help much

Or it could just be your sdcard
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] evolone:
cool, thanks sparks...

I'll run logcat and hopefully there is something in the log that pinpoints as to why the ext4 is converting to ext3....so strange
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
it will be on the very top of the logcat, then first thing that appears on it before the bootanimation
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
I just noticed that the stock 05mountsd script in the cm roms mounts the ext as ext3. However this rom is not mounting it that way. Perhaps you flashed stock cm rom and it formated it to ext3? Not sure why it's even mounting ext3 when our phones only use ext4 lol
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] geekdaddy:
Did anyone ever figure this out? I've been running RockMod for about a week and love the functionality, battery life, and performance. However, I tried installing two CM7 themes that worked for me on the CM7 stable build and the apps to enable themes won't install on this ROM.

The ROMs are:

Mixer: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1017179

NTSense: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=970459

When I attempt to install from file manager, I get the message "application not installed".

Thanks
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
What themes? I can install any theme apk from the market just fine... if it's a none market apk you need to speak with the developer of the theme...
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] geekdaddy:
Just installed a few market themes and they worked fine. Still seems odd to me that the one's I mentioned previously were created for CM7 and worked for me on my CM7 stable install. Not sure why they don't work on RockMod...
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
that is strange. The ones one the market are built to replace any theme no matter what theme it is. I've seen other theme apk's around on xda but they don't always work for me, not sure why. I think it has to do with the way it's compiled.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] jsp254:
Sorry bro. I never messed with it any more. I just stuck with the basic theme. I did use some icons from an adw elegance theme for my dock icons. I got a look that I liked and stuck with it.

Actually I did notice another problem with this rom. I, like many of you guys can't stick with a rom for long without trying something else. The problem I had was with backing up the rom with rom manager and also with cwm. When I tried to restore the rom from either backup, it would go back to stock. IE- I would not have the apps that were on the ext part. I tried a few different things like putting specific apps on ext and specific apps on internal. I got various responses from the restore.

I love the rom, but its a little too quirky for me right now. Since the cm team fixed the bootloop issue on nightly 121, I'm trying it right now. So far so good. I haven't tested everything yet, but that will come tomorrow night while I'm at work... tethering, ui jumpiness while charging on laptop, etc. I will try this rom again when its based off of the upcoming stable cm rom.

Again, like I said, I love the rom. I love my wife. I wish I could try another wife while my current wife fixes some of her quirks.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
Sounds like your recovery is being quirky not the rom. Try a different one other than the ones on rom manager. Not to mention your changing the theme ect, now your complaining about things not working. By all means if you want to make your own rom with theme in it have at it bro. For other themes you need to ask the theme dev why the market ones work and their's don't...
