[EVO 4G Android Development] Product F(RED):
One question I've always had is why does battery life suck on AOSP Roms? I'm on CM7 with SZ 2.2.0. Battery life is nowhere near as good as on Sense ROMs, even with my extended battery. There is nothing wakelocking my phone, nothing running in the background. It's not horrible, but it just drains quicker.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Vegasden:
2b already had it... so safe to assume 2c does.

I'm gonna admit that I haven't tried one of your roms yet, but here I go. :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] Beejis:
Thanks kush, quick question and I'm sorry for asking twice but I never did get a response. Which kernel do you use for the battery life you got (31 hours)?
[EVO 4G Android Development] kushdeck:
that was back on 2.3.3, and to be honest, it may of been an older cm kernel. i was able to pull out 40 hours off of tiamat once...

Yeah I am getting no luck downloading either...small zip with no content...downloading from my laptop would be ideal but I don't have it with me. Any ideas on how to d/l from phone
[EVO 4G Android Development] austinbrady:
Please HELP! I am so confused :(

I just flashed 1.2c and set up my exchange mail account and can't find the option to move messages/mail to another folder... all of the folders show up, but I can't move any messages. WTF am I doing wrong?

I swear the "move" option was there in 1.2b

(but it disappeared overnight for some reason)

I believe I may be loosing my mind...

Anyone?...?
[EVO 4G Android Development] generalExpert:
Ok, are we able to just wipe Cache and wipe Dalvik? Or are we needing to wipe Data too?
[EVO 4G Android Development] sph33r:
Use the mobile mirrors that Deck just posted. They work on your phone.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kushdeck:
new mobile mirrors up. please try them.

as for the exchange issue, maybe try a reboot? or did you use a different gaaps? i really havent touched anything that would have any effect on that. let me know, if you still have a problem, i will investigate further.

Does 1.2c fix MMS? I was having issues on 1.2b with it so I went back to 1.0

Thanks :)

Do the new radios and pri work with 1.0? Any 1 confirm?

.:from xda pre app via evo:.
[EVO 4G Android Development] raphenucleus:
It didn't fix mine, either. Before I flashed the new radios yesterday I never had any gps problems and never had to do the sense fix. Then after I flashed them (I was on 1.2t), all of a sudden the gps started to have issues; it worked, but it did the thing where if I was inside and didn't have good gps reception it would remain on and blinking after closing the app using gps and would show up in the notification bar and start blinking at random times for no apparent reason. I tried GPS Status & Toolbox fix resetting a-gps, but that didn't work. Then this morning I flashed 1.2u, hoping that would fix it, but it didn't. I tried the a-gps reset again, but it didn't change anything. Finally, I decided to try the ##GPSCLRX# fix in my backup sense rom. I restored back to 1.2u and now the gps appears to be working normally. Hopefully, it will stay this way.
[EVO 4G Android Development] PhantomPhreak53:
It works for me. Or are you asking how to switch to the front facing?
[EVO 4G Android Development] PhantomPhreak53:
Yes. Download the zip and flash it in recovery.
[EVO 4G Android Development] PhantomPhreak53:
Try signing out of your chrome to phone (on the phone) and then sign back in. It requires a permission to allow it now on Gingerbread. That permission doesn't carry over with a TitaniumBackup restore.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ydnandy:
thanks!! this hasn't worked in months. never really took the time to investigate, but this fixed it right away
[EVO 4G Android Development] PhantomPhreak53:
No problem. I was really wanting it to work one day so I investigated and found that worked.
[EVO 4G Android Development] fixxxer2008:
love the rom man, thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] quocamole:
i've tried this and it didn't work for me... rom installed via full wipe (always). tried all kind of combinations - uninstall, reboot, install via market, reboot, login.... "unable to connect". hmmmmmm.....
[EVO 4G Android Development] XsMagical:
Thats the fix i always use but this time it isn't working. It worked this morning while i was driving but after that it quit working.

Getting a lock while standing still, but while driving it wont lock at all unless i reset the gps and reset gmaps
[EVO 4G Android Development] Vegasden:
I had the same issue...had a good signal for a good while driving and then lost it all. I am on the latest radios.

I lifted the gps driver from the latest OTA and installed that. Again, I get a good lock sitting...haven't had time yet to do a drive and see if it'll "stick".
[EVO 4G Android Development] justin24:
After installing the latest radios (wimax,pri,etc) in recovery my gps is sporadic and the turn by turn doesn't work.

Any clues on how to fix this?

and I did not install the latest kernel from the OTA, I am using SZ BFS
[EVO 4G Android Development] chrisfales:
My GPS isn't working either. Locks briefly then nothing. Flashed just radio, wimax, and pri bundle over decks u. Been working perfect until last flash. Thoughts?
[EVO 4G Android Development] justin24:
I tried GPS Status and reset GPS-A and after a few minutes it locked the position for me and turn by turn started to work again.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Undead46:
1.2u has SIGNIFICANTLY improved my battery life, it's amazing!

85% after 8 hours and 45 mins.

Mild use.
[EVO 4G Android Development] PhantomPhreak53:
Have you tried signing out of your google account on the computer? I don't know if that will matter or not but it doesn't hurt to try. Sign out of both then sign in to the phone first and then on the computer.
[EVO 4G Android Development] malibu_23:
I love how there are options for everything!

.:from xda pre app via evo:.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SouthStockton:
Weird issue.. My wimax doesn't work unless I put my phone in airplane mode... Any suggestions to remedy this? Not that big know of an issue but kind of annoying.

[EVO 4G Android Development] wetrabbit444:
I really wanna know why the launcher is always choppy for me no matter what kernel I use....scrolling from homescreen to homescreen is choppy and laggy but in options and in apps its smooth as butter...why?
[EVO 4G Android Development] elosogrande7076:
Which kernel and governor are u using and have u flashed the new radio combo? Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] Android 17:
I know there's been an issue with certain HDTV's not working properly. However, how long has it been since you installed the app?

If it's been a good while, try deleting it and doing a fresh install, I had the same issue, and once I installed it, there was some sort of update and it worked fine afterwards.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Android 17:
Are you just using the stock launcher? Honestly I think there's better options out there, such as ADW, GOlauncher, and LauncherPro.

I really dug ADW for a while, but I have not been able to get any launcher to be as smooth and speedy as LauncherPro has worked for me.

Remember to tinker around with the settings as well.
[EVO 4G Android Development] wetrabbit444:
yeah I'm using the stock launcher..... Dammit I like it but its so choppy lol

E:Can't open /sdcard/gingerbread-evo-deck-1.2v.zip

everything else off my sd card flashes fine
[EVO 4G Android Development] ydnandy:
you try re-downloading and recopying to sd card? Might have gotten corrupted during one of those steps.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ydnandy:
I have also noticed an increase in my battery life after moving to 1.2u and new radios, using Tiamat 4.0.4 kernel.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Dan_:
Downloaded once with the evo and once pc->dropbox->evo, same thing. I'll try usb transfer now...

edit: hmm, usb transfered file worked, weird.

same procedure as always my friend wipe cache and davlik if any issues clean wipe... Unless he specifically says clean install and that just really to be cautious flash away my friend.... flash away
[EVO 4G Android Development] quocamole:
tried that too. over 3g, wifi, cleared app data, no difference. am I the only one? this is with almost every newer gb roms I run.

thanks for the help.

v is running great... not many letters left in the alphabet! y2k! lol.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SouthernEvo:
First i would check to make sure nothing is running rampant like Gallery , or some app . If everything there checks out go into recovery if you have Amon and do the Other> Fix apk iu option . If you are still expierencing high Android System usage especially after a phone call thats just the nature of the beast . Granted Deck has made much improvment in this department compared to other GB AOSP roms , its still present but not nearly as much as it used to be . I had posted on another site before and someone made the smartass comment "OMG my computer has 99% System idle process" Thats funny that would go under phone Idle but then I guess there are some "brilliant" minds on here .
[EVO 4G Android Development] Zac95:
This rom isn't cm based....

You might want to read the OP:
[EVO 4G Android Development] uNiXpSyChO:
is that so?
[EVO 4G Android Development] JSmurfy:
in the sense of that quesytion then i guess i am asking how to switch to a front facing camera.. thanx in advance
[EVO 4G Android Development] mevensen:
Yes, I have noticed this as well. I didn't notice which update caused this change, but audio quality has definitely dropped off recently. I don't know if it makes a difference, but I have been using Tiamat kernels pretty consistently.
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
In camera act touch the mountain icon,

Last time I said it was I practically got attacked. But I guess they were wrong. Guess thats what I get for taking advice from jerks. Lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] JSmurfy:
r we kjidding what mountain.. i cant be that stoopid.. will report back

dammit i forgot about that.. ok next question.. what about the miui camera no front facing there??
[EVO 4G Android Development] XsMagical:
Have you guys updated the PRI, PRL, And all the new radios? I'm on Tiamat 4.0.4 with SBC and never had any audio issues. Hardware 003
[EVO 4G Android Development] Zac95:
I flashed the latest combo and am on savaged Zen 2.2.1 hw 0003 no issues
[EVO 4G Android Development] mevensen:
I have the same -- newest radios, Tiamat-SBC. I did not update PRL, but that shouldn't come into play except when roaming, right?
[EVO 4G Android Development] mikeyxda:
I'm usually pretty in tune with audio changes and I haven't noticed any problem running 1.2o up through 1.2u. The only thing I've noticed is that with this ROM (and possibly SZ 2.2.1), the volume is louder. I say that because running the stock ROM, I'd have to restrict my max volume to 2 clicks under maximum or I'd get the EVO earpiece speaker crackle. Now with this ROM, I have to go 3 or 4 clicks under max because the speaker is noticeably louder. Even comparing max-to-max stock-to-Deck, the max is a lot louder than "stock". In fact, I wish I had a setting between 3 and 4 clicks under max because I hear just a tiny bit of crackle at 3 clicks under... and none if I go 4 clicks under max.

Anyway, wondering if some of you noticing audio quality changes are noticing distortion caused by the louder volume: try turning the volume down a tick or two and see if that fixes it.

Mike
[EVO 4G Android Development] mrpickem:
Very nice, I'm running the 1.2 with no real problems. Audio is as good as ever.

Only thing I noticed is the wifi is a little buggy....don't want to connect at times and not getting full speed when connected.

Overall, I'm impressed! A :cool:
[EVO 4G Android Development] Rem3Dy:
Zack you poor blind child........
[EVO 4G Android Development] playya:
try a different kernel... Godmode was pretty good for wifi and Tiamat 4.04 as well. Have had no problems at all with either one.
[EVO 4G Android Development] htc154:
Is it possble to install the Cynagen user interface?

Removed. figured out that Cyanogen uses ADW and there are other home launchers like Launcherpro and helixlauncher. Even though I like ADW, I decided to go with Launcherpro since it allows you to hide apps!
[EVO 4G Android Development] PhantomPhreak53:
When you open the camera app there are a set of icons above the button you use to take the picture. The one to the far left is a box with what looks like mountains. Click that and it gives you the option to switch to front facing.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Rem3Dy:
This rom is cm7 with launcher2 instead of adw and renaming CyanogenMod settings to advanced settings. This build size is smaller because it was compiled using only supersonic commits. Where cm7 includes the commits for all phones. Also several apps which are included in cm7 have been stripped out for this build. I just wished people would realize this :(
[EVO 4G Android Development] MJScore:
I've been using this rom for a few days now and I am really happy with it. No problems on my Evo so far. I updated to the new radio, pri and WiMAX combo. I also have a hardware 4 Evo. So far battery life has been good.
[EVO 4G Android Development] chrisfales:
See if your GPS works consistently please
[EVO 4G Android Development] MJScore:
I also noticed that I wish the email and mms app would let me know how many messages I had before I opened it up.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SantinoInc:
You sir, are 100% correct. Not to hate on the dev's work but I will stick with CM7 nightly.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MJScore:
chrisfales, so far no problem with gps yet. But I always use the sense fix before flashing new roms.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mattsm:
To any and all interested, updated combo radio, wimax, pri. Flashed rooted update after a full wipe. Did the gps fix while I was there(just for good measure since I THOUGHT gps was working fine, but NOW really works well.) Did another full wipe, flashed 1.2v and gapps.

This device has NEVER run better.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ibengood:
I searched through the thread already but does anyone know how to get Facebook to sync with the contact pictures. I downloaded the facebook app and have it synced with my contacts but the pictures do not match with their current profile one.. Any ideas? I know about syncmypix already but it hasnt worked in a week or so for me.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Biofall:
Who doesn't realize this? Very few people use the stock launcher anyway, so that doesn't matter. The entire point of this ROM is that it only contains stuff for the supersonic, which, hello, is the phone we all have. He's not hiding anything. READ THE OP. A stripped CM build is why I flashed this, as it definitely runs far smoother than nightlies for me.

Can you compile CM7 nightlies for us without the other device commits? If so, do it and get some credit.. Oh wait, deck already took care of that for us. Please quit trying to be the hero of giving credit and go do something productive.

BTW, THANKS DECK
[EVO 4G Android Development] mattsm:
I don't sync my facebook contacts via app, I have everything set up through gmail contacts. You can sync the facebook images by url in gmail. Takes just a little time to set up, but when done, gmail sync is all that is needed to have everything you want. Open browser on pc, edit all your contacts info right there, it will auto sync everything. I like to control all my contacts from one location.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Biofall:
Or you can use the app syncmypix from the market, which grabs high-res contact pictures from facebook.
[EVO 4G Android Development] wrxphantom:
to flash the new version V do you need to do a complete wipe? or can u just wipe dalvik cache and flash the V over the U I already have installed?

GPS	still doesn't work, tried gps status app fix, and other drivers fix. Haven't tried sense fix yet. Everything else works great on 1.2v
[EVO 4G Android Development] mattsm:
True, there are a few ways, I just have everything setup the way I have it, and I don't ever have to do anything. What I mean everything is already setup fine for me, so I haven't messed with any apps to do it for me.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ibengood:
Matt,

Do you mind pm'ing the steps? If its a hassle up front but always updates, I am all for that rather than letting a program do it..

Thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] fixxxer2008:
is there a changelog along with these builds? i assume the new ones are based off of cm7 nighties?
[EVO 4G Android Development] life:
its in the OP, but here its right here as well.

http://forum.dev-host.org/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=12

my question is easy and probably know the answer myself, but if im not having wakelock issues do i really need 1.2v or can i stay with 1.2u?
[EVO 4G Android Development] mattsm:
Nothing hard about it, open gmail.com via browser from pc.

Gotto contacts and edit every contact, put in any info you want to for them.

As for pictures, click on the picture for you contact, it will ask you upload from pc, or via url link, ect.

I enter url link from what ever social network, facebook, ect.

Example: go to a friends facebook page, right click on their profile picture, copy image location, gotto gmail contacts that I have open in another tab and paste the url location for the contacts image. Done. Look at my phone and the picture is already there.

Now all my contacts are save in gmail, I have NONE saved to phone.

Edit: I agree, I don't need another app running
[EVO 4G Android Development] sbradymobile:
It isn't for wakelock issues, it is for when the screen backlight fails to turn on. If you are not having this issue (auto-brightness disabled), then the main change is the screen turns instantly off instead of fading off (not to be confused with the dimming that occurs when the screen times out) when not using the screen-off animation.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ibengood:
So, if you wanted to update there picture you have to go back and update the contact through gmail by doing the steps all over?
[EVO 4G Android Development] 1mp4c:
I updated radios and pri but not prl as I haven't flashed a sense rom for a while. I tried using the new kernal but it didnt work for me on 1.2v. Everything else is working tho. GPS seems to be working fine without doing any "fix" and i have no issue with wakelock anymore, or the camera brightness issue others have said. seems really solid! I'm looking forward to when u run out of letters and bless us with version 1.3 :D it would be the new GB base rom I know a lot of people are looking for. May even get some of those CM guys to come over to the slim side haha :rolleyes:

Download ADW Notifier from the market.

[EVO 4G Android Development] fixxxer2008:
im not upgrading either as i have no wake issues. im getting great battery life with this rom + the titmat kernel. the only thing i notice is the screen is a little slow to wake sometimes.

id love to see the addition of updating our prls & profiles on this rom. i know it can be done because coming from the nexus s 4g we can do it on there via the settings menu and it's also a 2.3.4 aosp rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ibengood:
I did a google search after I started working on your method Matt, and I found this website.. The program works.. I changed all my contact photos for me.. Its basically syncmypix but you run it from you computer and it changes the gmail photo..

the only bug i have noticed is if you have gps disabled and you go to turn it on the icon stays on even if you shut gps back off. only a reboot seems to fix it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] fixxxer2008:
would this fix the slight delay when trying to wake the phone? i thought maybe it was the kernel i am using.

Gingerbread-evo-deck-1.0

Dear Deck. Thank for your wonderful demonstration on youtube. I specially like to way the evo 4g is placed on a steady platform rather than the palm of a moving hand. Anyway, does your 1.0 rom offer any hotspot and camera improvements over that of stock froyo 2.2 that comes with evo 4g from HTC?

Thanks again,

Mark

PS my htc evo 4g is already rooted since I did the universal all in one root/flash. But due to some issues that i had with some fonts installation I had to change to rom to 'warm two point two'. I have already downloaded all the zip files such as 'gingerbread-evo-deck-1.0, gapps, gapps wth voicemail, etc. What are the steps to reflash my rom with the above please?

Sorry, hit the spacebar. Glad you found it.

wakelock issue is there on SZ's newest kernal running setcpu with the SZ governor at 245 bottom end speed. Phone didnt want to wake up after sitting for a while.

Seems to be fine when low end is set to 384.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sbradymobile:
I have to agree. As a contributor to CM I think it is great to see the fixes I work on spread to more devices and roms. There are some device-specific fixes that are more appropriate for custom roms like this, so I'm glad to see somebody working on it. Decks is doing an excellent job of working on this and I hope to see more in the future.
