[EVO 4G Android Development] s2kdriver:
Sure hope someone is still here and watching.

I am experiencing random crashes. The phone runs fine for a while (a few hours to a couple of days) then crashes and loops on the boot animation until I pull the battery. It will then boot up fine and run until the next crash.

Current Configuration

I'm running Fresh 4.2 w/stock kernel.

ADW Launcher Ex

Homesmack App Manager (to switch between Sense and ADW)

SetCPU 384/998 ondemand (currently, but I was having the issues before installing it)

Actions already taken

I have wiped the caches multiple times.

I have re-installed the ROM.

Observations

I have noticed that it happens at different times of the day/night.

It appears to be random, although only when phone is not in use (idle). This is why I raised the min CPU freq.

I'm not seeing any temp issues.

It happens both on and off charger.

It never happened before on ASOP ROMs. (Running ADW Launcher EX solely)

It has occurred once when I had the SD card mounted on my PC. It was still accessible during the looping. I'm not sure if that means anything or not.

Next Steps

I am beginning to wonder about the battery, I may try to swap it out.

I may flash back to ASOP ROM to see if the issue goes away.

I thought about a catlog, but it may take awhile before it happens again. The log file may fill up available space.

Can anyone think of something else to check.

I really hate to go back to ASOP, because my reception and battery life on 3G/4G was terrible w/ASOP. I thought I had found "THE" ROM, but it is really aggravating to wake up to a repeating "Freshhhh..." being played over and over again at 3am, or whenever. (Brings up another point, how can I disable the boot sound?)
[EVO 4G Android Development] xInfamousx:
Using amon RA recovery I would completely wipe everything once or twice. Including system. Do a fresh instal and set everything back up. Give freedom kernel a try. Its great. And to disable the boot sounds I've found out when you turn the phone to silent/vibrate before you turn it off it wont play the boot sound. No idea if that's what makes it not okay but give it a whirl.
[EVO 4G Android Development] s2kdriver:
Thanks for the quick reply.

Unfortunately, I have already tried many wipes and different kernels including freedom. I have also tried various mods (i.e. vipermod voltage scripts, v6 supercharger, etc). Everything, always ends up with the same symptoms.

However, I did notice last night that the battery in use was one that I had purchased on-line. You know, the "buy a charger and we'll through in two batteries - all for only $19.95". So, i pulled it and put in a stock sprint battery. I figure this is the easiest test as I don't have to reconfigure the phone again from a factory wipe and install. Time will tell.

Thanks again.

Update 9/26/2011: I think I found the issue. I believe that my Titanium Backup app+data restore was corrupting something. I did another complete rebuild, but this time I manually reinstalled the applications. Seems to be "rock" steady now. I'm also getting beautiful battery life. After wiping battery stats and it took about 35 hours to complete the first full discharge cycle. This is with a 1800mah battery and normal usage for me (texting, a few phone calls, web browsing, reading emails, etc. ). I was also using wifi exclusively thoughout the time.

All I can say is I love this ROM. Thanks Flipzmode for making what I consider is the best ROM for the Evo 4G. My next stop is the Donate button.

Update 10/5/2011: I still haven't seen any rebooting issues. It had to be the Titanium Backup app+data restore. Still loving it!
[EVO 4G Android Development] ag3ntsm1th:
I just flashed this ROM out of boredom and I honestly can't believe how much faster this ROM is compared to 3.0 Sense ROMs. I love how the transitions are silky smooth and take their time, and the fade in/out transitions as well. +1
[EVO 4G Android Development] scottspa74:
Yeah, sense 1.0 ROMs run way smoother/faster, and flipz is a great dev. I've never even used thus ROM, but all those are facts. ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] wfrandy:
WooHoo!!! Flipz is back. Any other testers running the new Fresh 4.3.0 yet? I am downloading it now.

I am. Gave me a chance to update profiles and PRL. Good ol' reliable Fresh.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xInfamousx:
I really hope that he brings the screen transitions from 2.3.5 into this rom. it would make this rom perfect.
[EVO 4G Android Development] troyhough:
i'll be loading it tonight! thanks flipz
[EVO 4G Android Development] dvtmg704:
How do I dl the new fresh rom
[EVO 4G Android Development] Pao23:
You have to have donated to Fresh.

Anyhow, I installed, I don't have a pull down bar, so I'm going to reflash, may have just been something screwy when coming from my previous rom
[EVO 4G Android Development] cdell:
I'm missing the notification bar as well. Tapping on menu notifications fails to bring them up as well.
[EVO 4G Android Development] criccio:
Guess i'm not the only one. Any word on a fix? Missing the notification bar is kinda a big deal.. lol :D It also won't connect to my WiFi...

First time using Fresh since switching to CM almost a year ago and its not a good second impression ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] flipzmode:
Hey all. Just happened to peek in this thread. :P I posted a fix for the notification bar on my site. That's the central point for anyone running 4.3 until it gets released. And the reason I don't go straight to public releases is to catch bugs like this.

http://geekfor.me/evo/23/fresh-evo-43/
[EVO 4G Android Development] Pao23:
Hey flip, thanks for the heads up. Seemed like it was running cherry save for that. I'll get it back on tomorrow to get a better try with it. Missed ya!
[EVO 4G Android Development] criccio:
That did it.

As for my issue with Wifi, my access point was set for 11n only and my Evo refused to connect until it set it to g/n Mixed Mode. Does this ROM not support 802.11n?
[EVO 4G Android Development] artlan:
I remember back on the prior Rom there was an issue with the N drivers, and a flash-able zip came out that fixed it.

I still have it on my phone (for re-flashing purposes), so I attached it here if you want to give it a shot.
[EVO 4G Android Development] troyhough:
flipz-

can you apply the wireless N fix to your rom?

thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] smittycg:
Fix worked although no quick settings

EVO 4G
[EVO 4G Android Development] flipzmode:
Can I get someone that's having the statusbar issue to this this out and see if it fixes it for you and quick settings works too? This should resolve it.

http://geekfor.me/evo/23/fresh-evo-43/comment-page-1/#comment-8743

I'd prefer if you respond on the site but you can respond here if you want.

And yes I totally forgot that the wireless driver needed to be modified in order for wireless N to work on the Evo, I'll get that added in.

Thanks all.
[EVO 4G Android Development] winter128:
Send me the fix and I'll check it out. So far that is the only issue I'm having. Great Job!!!!!!

Big thanks to both of you. As I am an Epic user and this is for my daughters phone, excuse the "noob-ness"- to flash over 4.2 using CWM: do I just download it onto the SD card and flash? Any "3X" wiping required?
[EVO 4G Android Development] winter128:
Just wipe cache and dalvik cache..... Then flash 4.3

Flip, great to see amazing support still for the OG evo, did you plan on moving to a new phone soon or are you set where you are at?
[EVO 4G Android Development] flipzmode:
Debug log...

That's because of quick boot. You can either use an app to reboot you in to recovery or if you pick "restart" off of the shutdown menu and hold the volume down as soon as the screen goes black (before it vibrates) then it will get you in to recovery.
[EVO 4G Android Development] DJAscendance:
Flipz, u da man!
[EVO 4G Android Development] oubravs2b:
I tried to restore another ROM after flashing and TB still force closes. When I restore from a NAND backup it works perfectly. Weird??? I've done this multiple times with the same results. Tried wiping dalvik, reinstalling TB, etc. and same results every time.
[EVO 4G Android Development] djdisturbed:
Well, well, well. Made Nandroid before i updated, updated and fund out some of my apps did not work right (plus I have the brightness bug, ver 2 hardware) and went to restore the nandroid and it wont restore right, my apps are not restoring, including the market, so i cant get any of the apps i need to restore from my back up programs to download, OHH IM SOOOOO FREAKING PISSED RIGHT NOW!!!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] achllles:
some of apps just fc's

Orb, and Angrybirds (both cracked) fc's. I guess karma is real!!

haha.

Another thing I noticed was shutting down the phone, then turning it back on is faster than reboot option.

I'm on HW00002... well used to be that, now it says 00003, brightness works, but it seems like it goes back to 100% brightness after reboots.

Still in beta, but I'll stick with it since sling, phone, emails, and webrowsing works.

Thanks for the hard work!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] mijjah74:
I believe most issues have to be user error. Make sure ur doing a clean install. Ive been using beta 2 & now 3 with no issues. TI backup isnt quit right but u can install from market then restore data, that does work. Great rom flipz. Running smooth.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Droga:
It seems that my phone does not like the newest kernel for the leaked GB ROM. Ive tried EVERY single ROM so far that has been built off this base, and ALL of them are giving me boot loops.... Ive tried CM7, and a bunch of 2.2 ROMS with no problem at all... but these ROMS will not boot at all (and yeah, Ive cleared all caches correctly). :(
[EVO 4G Android Development] gotshores:
Hey Droga, I saw that you said you cleared all caches, but did you do complete wipes? what recovery are you using?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Droga:
^ Im using latest Amon's, Ive wiped data, cache and dalvik 3 times each, plus Calkulins Format all. zip. I even did a factory reset to no avail.
[EVO 4G Android Development] osvaldoalejandre:
For everything works the only thing I can not download anything from the market any fix for this.. this Rom is epic so far
[EVO 4G Android Development] sanjsrik:
Multiple FCs. Beta 2 was unstable. Beta 3 is really unstable. Thank goodness for nand restore.

TI Backup won't even run past an FC that crashes it. The battery is running so hot I had to pull it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] gotshores:
i still use amon 1.8, but it sounds like you do everything i do including the format all zip. maybe it's just your phone it doesn't like. :-P I know some phones were having issues with certain aspects of the rom. My phone seemed to have everything working on it, but sometimes i noticed that i couldn't do the speech to text function. It was weird and intermittent, and that's on all the test/leaked sense GB rom's, not just fresh. i flashed back to mikfroyo and all is good again. sorry for your luck, hopefully the "official" one from sprint is on its way.
[EVO 4G Android Development] osvaldoalejandre:
Sorry my mistake I had to phones signed in the market that's why it wouldn't work but its fixed
[EVO 4G Android Development] osvaldoalejandre:
There something weird with this Rom because everything works for me its 100 % stable
[EVO 4G Android Development] djdisturbed:
GRRRR, Cant restore ANY of my nandroids...... I AM HIGHLY PISSED!!!!!!!! did factory reset, install freash again (can only use the newest one, other boot loop now) and now am having to reinstall everything, found out that the back-up app i was useing has NOT been doing auto-backup's like it used to.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nugzo:
I've used everbodys wipe scripts and then wiped manually everything after that. Then install this rom and then Titanium Backup from the market. Force close as soon as i try to open it. install busy box from market and run it still FC on titanium backup. Not a user error i assure you that. Way to many people having the same exact problem for it all to be user error. No wireless either so i'll keep my eye out for beta 4.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Droga:
Im almost 100% positive its the kernel, because Ive installed a bunch of AOSP GB ROMS (CM7, MIUI, Magnus, etc) and none of them exhibit the issue. Hell, I even tried the stock leaked ROM and that didnt work also. So I will wait for the official one from Sprint, or the Evo 3D (whichever gets here first hahahaha).
[EVO 4G Android Development] nugzo:
For the titanium backup fc thing, try an older version. muiu peeps having the same problem with their latest. older TB fixed it. Here is the link http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=13130415&postcount=8615

Wasn't there a press release from Sprint a month ago promising Google Voice integration for all android devices? If the latest leak was close to being official, wouldn't GV been packaged with the Rom?
[EVO 4G Android Development] flipzmode:
I actually got an evo 3d the day before launch. But I kept my evo instead of selling it so that I could keep developing on it. I have been insanely busy and just released my first evo 3d rom yesterday even though the phone came out in june and so I made sure to take the time to update fresh evo also. :)

Hey Flipz let me start off by saying thanks for all the hard work that you put in to create this amazing rom& all the updates you produce! I was wondering if anyone else here has been having problems with getting Google Music Beta to work while using this ROM. I've tried reflashing it, and reinstalling 3.0 & 4.0 versions of the Music apk, but still no go. Any help I can get on this would be much appreciated
[EVO 4G Android Development] sivarticus85:
I actually had to force stop and clear all data for the Music app for it to recognize my gmail account. Try this and maybe that'll get it working for you. Hopefully this is the problem you were having and this corrects it for you.

And flipz... nice job on the rom dude! It is awesome! Thanks for updating to latest firmware!
[EVO 4G Android Development] aimgrabber:
Sorry I should have been more in depth in stating what the issue was. I'm able to sync my music without an issue, it's the actual playing that is affected. Once I hit the play button I'll get the loading/buffering wheel that hovers over the album cover, and the play button turns into a stop button. 1~3 seconds later the wheel will disappear and the stop button turns back to play. Long story short it seems like its going to play, but almost instantly stops. I can't even download music from the cloud server either. I've had this problem with previous versions of the Fresh ROM as well.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sivarticus85:
Oh I see... I'm not too sure what may be causing the issue... I messed with mine today and it was working fine, so it sounds to me like the cloud service might be acting up in your area. Just a guess though... Have you tried flashing another rom to replicate the problem?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Pao23:
Anyone know of a % battery bar that will work with this Rom?

SMS/MMS messaging stopped working

Worked and looked great except after a couple hours I stopped receiving texts (only 1 out of every few that I could test myself) also couldn't send a picture text from the message area. Had to open picture, share as a message and then go to the message and "Try Re-Sending" to push it thru.

Anybody else? Is there a fix? (last radio update I tried was evo.2.15.00.05.02)
