Good morning mynions!

If u haven't try the go keyboard from the market, try it, its great!

Lrod's evo.
[EVO 4G Android Development] thegreatdustinLO:
Ya, that's what I did. So its because I flashed the carosel mod? (Sorry for incorrect spelling) how can I get rid of the mod I flashed?

sent from my synergized, v6 scripted beast.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
Maybe. Depending on the carousel you flashed, it has been reported that some widget do not work, are not available and/or are unstable. As for how to get rid of it, you will have to re-wipe and re-flash.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jbrawley1:
I flashed non-God Mode with ChopSuey's and ive loved it, did 1 battery cycle and now im getting about 16+hours with my everyday use which is about 4hrs of playing Audible (but in airplane mode i work in a warehouse and dont have service in the freezer anyways) and other use bluetooth audio over call and more its great!!! I stay 128000 - 1075200 ondemand gov.

Hang at htc EVO 4G screen

Thanks for your help. Here's what I tried:

1. Boot into recovery (amonRA v2.3)

1a. Flash EVO_Radio_2.15.00.05.02_WiMAX_27243_PRI_NV_2.15_003.zip

2. Select "Partition SD Card".

3. Enter zero for the SWAP size, 2048 for ext2 and the rest for FAT

4. After the process finishes, select "Upgrade ext2 to ext3" (x3)

4a. Flash VR_SUPERWIPE.zip

5. When the process is complete, go to the wipe menu and wipe EVERYTHING in it.

6. From the main menu, select USB-MS and copy the Synergy ROM to the root of your SD Card.

7. Flash Synergy

7a. Reboot

7b. I got a screen with the green arrows

7c. Eventually I ended up back in recovery

7d. Reboot

8. Hang at htc EVO 4G screen. Gave up after 60 minutes.

Does anyone have any other ideas, or does my phone just not like this ROM for some reason?
[EVO 4G Android Development] sclarktay4:
Try flashing radios first, then reboot and let it install, then once it takes you back to recovery flash the rom. hope this helps.

Navigation oddity in Synergy

Finally got my new class 6 16gb SD card. Flashed Synergy RLS1 (non-GM) and Freedom Kernel (Aggressive). I have not had it long enough to see how the battery life is with this "aggressive" version of Freedom but I can say that Synergy makes my phone look and perform better than it ever has. The dalvik on the class 6 SD (default cma2sd) seems fine to me and I dont notice and slowdown. As such, is there REALLY any huge gain to flashing the DTa2sd (Dark Tremor) mod to put dalvik back on internal? I could see this if you had a class 2 card but I dont see the point really. Thoughts?

I have noticed one thing that leads to my question. In the Stock ROM, when running Google Navigation and charging the phone in the car, it would not dim down the screen like when it does just before the display times out (goes into sleep w/ the screen off). In Synergy, I noticed today that after a few minutes during navigation, the screen "dims down." I do not mean an auto-brightness adjustment (I do have auto-adjust brightness enabled) but rather the "dim" mode just before the screen times out. The default timeout to turn the screen off in synergy is 1min I believe and I have not changed any display settings other than turning "auto-adjust brightness" on.

Any suggestions in getting the screen to stay at its normal brightness and not "dim itself" before sleep when Navigation is running?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dasingleton:
Thanks...will give it a try later.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
When I use the Google Navigation feature, it stays lit. The Sprint Navigation app sleeps on me from time to time but I've since stop using it after it directed me to the wrong location on a few occasions. Hahaha. As for your display being 'dim' prior to going into sleep mode, that's normal. At least it is on my device.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ageesm:
I have a class 10 and I noticed a bit of a speed increase with dalvik on internal. You can nand, try it out and see how it works for you. I have also used mine on the cache partition which is still superior to on the sdcard.

The newest Google Maps update added this 'feature' you do not have an option. I think it was v5.7, not positive on that though. There's a handful of threads out there on it. The only way around it is to install an older version :(...
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
I can only assume you're trying to flash G-mode. If I'm wrong, I'm sorry. I have no idea why your device is stalling at the EVO screen. All I can do is suggest you try again. If you believe that you've done everything correctly then re-install amonRA v2.3, transfer the contents of your SD card onto a computer or external drive then wipe EVERYTHING on amonRA's wipe menu list, including the card (you so not need a super wipe zip) and then download a fresh copy of the rom you're trying to flash, transfer it to your SD card and then flash it. This will work for you if you follow the instructions to the letter and barring a card error or internal phone error.
[EVO 4G Android Development] whiterider13:
To add to this, it will go back to full brightness when you get near your next turn. I think it is somewhere around 0.3-0.5 miles if I remember correctly.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Alpine-:
Interesting, I had not noticed this before. So there is zero doubt this is 100% a new Feature in the new build of Google Maps / Navigation? I never noticed this before and I had the latest build. :confused: I guess if it brightens up again before your next turn it is not so bad and can be seen as a battery saver. It can still be read ok on dim.

I appreciate the quick responses guys. As always, the quality of help/advice available from this thread (mynions) is tremendous.

dougjamal has personally helped me numerous times with PM questions - all of which were of the annoying noob variety in nature.

UPDATE: Dug around a bit to see more on this. I got this from Google's support.

http://www.google.com/support/forum...n&fid=4cc9c887d2e027120004a7f6a622a7be&hltp=2

I never personally had any trouble with the charger keeping up even when using Navigation + BT and checking push emails, etc. often.

There are a lot of complaints so I suspect at the very least, Google will include a toggle for this feature down the road.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Bull_Moose:
I love this ROM (no GodMode, although I'll try that one later) but I notice whenever I make a call it says that I am roaming. What's up with that?
[EVO 4G Android Development] vanessaem:
Do you have the roaming option checked off on your phone?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Bull_Moose:
Under Mobile Network Settings, Data Roaming is unchecked but the rest is checked by default. Do I just uncheck all of that stuff?
[EVO 4G Android Development] vanessaem:
Yeah, I'd uncheck anything that indicates roaming. You should also make sure that you are on "Sprint only" and not "Automatic". Look in the Roaming drop-down. When you're on "Automatic" your phone may start roaming. If you're on "Sprint only", your phone won't do that. Roaming is included in the Everything Plans though. So it's no extra cost to you. As long as you're within the country.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Alpine-:
If your plan has free data roaming (most do) then I wouldnt. That is, unless you dont want to be able to access data when on roam. You want your phone to roam for data/calls when it needs to but you just dont need to be notified/warned of it.

I have Data Roaming and Data Roaming sound checked.

I unchecked Data Roam guard & Call guard.

I'm assuming your plan includes free roaming. If you will be charged, you obviously want roam protections.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Great Offender:
I get superuser fc's every time I launch titanium backup. After the fc all programs requiring root no longer work. Could this be a kernel issue? I am using ChopSuey's latest.
[EVO 4G Android Development] investinwaffles:
Hey guys,

I have some noobert questions for you all :o

Coming from CM7, I went straight to root and ASOP so I am kind of confused on OC protocol for Sense roms.

Flash Freedom kernel, install Set CPU, then OC??

Rom seems so fast, with just some hints of lag in places - im wondering if OCing a little will clear this up.

Also, another issue I have is that my HTC Agenda widget always has to refresh when I go back to the homescreen. Is there any fix for this?

I see some people experimenting with the "V6 Supercharger" script - has it been effective?

My only issue with messing with this is that in the past I have mucked up my roms and caused lots of little issues and I would like to avoid unnecessary scripts/mods :o
[EVO 4G Android Development] life:
With the freedom kernel, if your going to overclock, do not install the less, more or aggressive options. those are tweaked like this less= -50 more= -100 aggressive= -150 so overclock these will cause the kernel to run at stock voltages meaning that the overclock isnt working. so use the stock, to overclock with freedom kernel.

as for the V6 supercharger, i dont use which is why i didnt include it in the quote, sorry im sure someone else here can help with that tho.
[EVO 4G Android Development] CtDMonet:
I noticed this quite some time ago (old froyo roms) - especially if you start the navigation in 4G. I haven't noticed it in quite a while (but haven't used it on a long road trip for quite a while).
[EVO 4G Android Development] KingFnerb:

[EVO 4G Android Development] Rocklee99:
whats the difference between miks rom and this one?
[EVO 4G Android Development] vanessaem:
Other than saying his is odex and this one's deodex, you need to either check the specs or changelogs of each to compare or flash both and see for yourself...:rolleyes:

It's about trial and error and doing your own the legwork. ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] ageesm:
Not sure where you got this from. Overclocking and undervolting are two complete different processes...Well not completely different I guess, but overclocking is not disabled by undervolting, just changes the voltages used at each clock speed to increase battery life.

Now there are issues with stability and that is part of the reason lithid put the voltages over 998 back to stock, but it is working.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vanessaem:
Back in my Froyo days when I was overclocking to 1190, my kernel of choice was the Netarchy 4.2.1-cfs-bfq-havs-more-smartass-universal(more aggressive).

Unless, the kernels have changed since then, Freedom has adverse effects to this or gingerbread does something different, I think if you want to overclock, more or aggressive options are fine. However, every phone is different. One has to see what settings work best for their phone.
[EVO 4G Android Development] life:
lithid-cm actually posted that it was un-wise to try to overclock the undervolted versions of his rom.

Edit:

i meant to say kernel instead of rom......
[EVO 4G Android Development] ageesm:
Lithid was having issues with his kernel overclocking, so he put the voltages past 998 back to stock. It is now fine to overclock, you just won't see any of the undervolted battery savings at those clock speeds.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vanessaem:
What about on Synergy?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Rocklee99:
i changed the theme along with the animations, can someone please post the stock animations that come with this rom?
[EVO 4G Android Development] vanessaem:
Cool...option two, Freedom works differently...lol.

1 Q: after opening a2sdgui an exit pop up comes up saying it could not start for one of 3 following reasons:

1.my device not rooted

2. a2sd scripts not found

3. no EXt partition found

Wiping the sd-ext doesnt wipe ext 3 on sd card does it ? do i have to re wipe the entire sd card again and re partion ext3 back in ?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Alpine-:
As I understood it, if you have the pre-installed cma2sd (built into Synergy), neither A2SDGUI or Terminal Emulator will work. If you updated to Dark Tremor A2SD (DTa2SD), they will.

Deleting System Apps

Hi, All

Just came to the EVO from Hero. Wow. What a difference. And this ROM is superb! Kudos to all involved!

The correct decision was made to keep everything in, becuase bloatware to one person may be essential to another. A question, then, about removing the apps in system. On the hero I always just opened the ROM zip with 7zip and removed things before flashing, but with rls1 godmode that doesn't work. So, can I set Root Explorer to R/W, search for all instances of, say, twitter, delete everything and have done with it? Rather inelegant, but I just had a problem trying to install the swype beta (after following directions from somewhere to remove the swype that came with rls1 godmode), did the search through Root, nuked everything that showed up and then installed swype installer and swype, worked perfectly. I suppose I would also do rm through adb, but that would require the exact names for everything I want to get rid of.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Rocklee99:
i just flashed the warm theme and now i cant update my PRL or profile...is that because of the theme?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
I doubt it. Updating the PRL & profile is hit or miss on occasion. Oftentimes, a mere reboot or a wiping of cache & dalvik will allow you to update both successfully.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
The short answer is yes. Just maneuver to the system/app folder, select r/w, then select multi items and then select everything you want to delete and when you're made your selections, delete them. Be sure you know what you're removing. Most are pretty self explanatory.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Skullmonkey:
Just to add on: you can find a list of apps that are safe to remove here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet...EZSd1pFTy1OTlEzWTZkZ3BpS2JXdlE&hl=en_US#gid=0

Just keep in mind that this list is still being worked on so some things may be wrong. If you have any problems, just let me know.

You should be able to update profile after a few reboots. I tried after 1 reboot after installing rom but it would not update profile. After a couple more reboots it will now update my profile.

[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:

Is there a reason why this rom would show as "device not supported" for a bunch of apps, but stock unrooted evos allow download?

I run into many apps that say incompatible but reading reviews show many "evo4g" commenters giving their opinion.

Tried that. It fc's when opened. Any other options or advice on what I am doing wrong
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
I think it only removes the apk, but I could be wrong. Have you tried the 'adb pull' command?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
Only in the dalvik (I believe). Just boot into recovery and wipe the cache & dalvik. That's what I do and have yet to experience any ill-effects.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vanessaem:
This rom does not do that on my phone. What bunch of apps are you speaking of?
[EVO 4G Android Development] vanessaem:
Perhaps you didn't check off all of the permissions?

Leave the "Special Permissions" area alone though.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sclarktay4:
which all permissions need to be checked?
[EVO 4G Android Development] vanessaem:
Are you sure you tried DJ's instructions?

Where'd you put the stock app?

EDIT: I just installed the Stock.apk per DJ's instructions and checked off all permissions and it works without any FC's.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tuscolavol:
First, let me apologize, in a previous reply I stated that you couldn't wipe your partition. I was trying to say that wiping would not remove it.

Thanks DJ for catching that.

I think you need to start over with a2sd.

If Doug is reading, maybe he would post the steps to partitioning and installing a2sd. He has done it NUMEROUS times (oops, I hit the caps lock my mistake). I highly recommend installing Dark Tremors. Not only can you use A2SDGUI to check it, you can also make changes to make it work best with your device.

[EVO 4G Android Development] vanessaem:
I checked them all off except whatever is under Special Permissions. Not everyone checks all of those Permissions but I find when I do, it leads to less issues for me. Give it a try. Also after you do this change back to r/w, back out of Root Explorer and do a Hot restart.

Back up the contents of your SD card to a computer or external drive BEFORE starting this procedure because this procedure will erase EVERYTHING on it. You have been warned!

1. With amonRA v2.3, select 'partition sdcard'.

2. When prompted, enter the following: 0 for the SWAP size, 1024 for the ext2 size and the rest for FAT.

3. After the process is complete, select 'upgrade ext2 to ext3.

4. When the upgrade is complete, go to amonRA's wipe menu and wipe EVERYTHING on the list.

5. Now connect your device to your computer via USB and then select the 'USB-MS' option from within amonRA. This will allow your computer to access your SD card and give you the option to transfer files between the two.* Anyway,* transfer the Synergy rom to your card.* Do not transfer any other files at this time.

6. Dismount the card by selecting the 'USB-MS' option again.

7. Flash the rom and be patient during the initial bootup because you may appear to hang at both the boot screen and Synergy splash screen.

8. It is recommended that you initially install your apps individually via the market. All of your installed apps will be stored on your SD card. As soon as you've gotten your device setup exactly how you want it, reboot into recovery and create a nandroid backup an make sure you include the sdext option to be backed up in addition to what's already selected.
