Well i found the ota patch but compression is still bad :( actually got rid of the 5m option
[EVO 4G Android Development] ssconceptz:
Flashed the no landscape file from Synergy Updater but no luck. Still goes into landscape. Anyone have the file? I'm on godmode
[EVO 4G Android Development] NxNW:
Has to be flashed at the same time the ROM is installed.

If you're already running the ROM, you will have to reinstall.

With the clever use of nandroid, this can be less painful than it sounds. dougjamal explained how to do this once.

What is the deal with not being able to create a new, separate post when there are no posts newer than the last one you made? Sometimes you want to change the subject and being forced to add on to your existing post on another topic is just confusing.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vanessaem:
Just for kicks and giggles, try flashing the g-mode no landscape version of one of these: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=15271799&postcount=2 I know you want stock but this is just to see if it works for you.
[EVO 4G Android Development] NxNW:
Thanks for posting something, anything, Vanessa.

Now I can change the subject.

So I'm sticking with my Evo4G hardware, and even though the Synergy team's work is essentially over and their output is now being used as the base ROM for development *on newer phones* , I still think for OG Evo 4G owners, there isn't a better Sense ROM out there.

So I'm still hanging around, bumping this thread every once in a while, getting ready to ride off into the sunset but not really ready to leave just yet.

I've been running RLS1 for months now and have gotten very complacent. Until Warm 2.3 is ported (or some genius figures out how to get Ice Cream Sandwich to run on an Evo), I think I'm set for a while.

I can only think of a couple things that bug me, including but not limited to:

- MMS attchments work from Gallery but not from MMS

- Very heavy use of camera sometimes forces full restart

(similar to battery pull, not just restarting Sense or even hot restart of OS)

- A couple placebo features that appear to work but don't really (a couple features in camera that don't do anything, a couple Sense widgets that never load, little stuff)

- no HDMI

Most of this is out of myn's hands, by the way. This is not about the quality of the ROM, (which I still think is in a class by itself), just little things you learn to avoid.

The one that I thought I could do something about was the last one in that list, HDMI.

HDMI and 720p was something that was marketed to EVO buyers, yet stock kernels never seemed to actually support it in a reliable way.

So I broke down and installed lithid's "Freedom" kernel, which I believe now incorporates the HDMwIn features.

And sure enough: HDMI works.

All I did was flash the kernel and plug in my HDMI cable*.

Everything worked.

If there's more I can do with that kernel, great, but I'm not really a big voltage or clock tweaker. I just wanted HDMI, and I got it.

Thanks again to detcup4evr who mentioned this fix is available to anyone who wants it.

* I'm still using the same cheap HDMI cable that straight out rebooted my phone everytime I plugged it in to a TV while running the original Froyo RUU when I first bought the phone. Everyone would say 'oh, it's the cable, you have to buy the one that Sprint sells, blah blah.' While good cables do matter, I don't think all the problems people were having running HDMI on Evos could be blamed on cables.
[EVO 4G Android Development] marcusva79:
Nxare you talking about the update patch? Am too a a fan of synergy. But my,mms compress really sux brotha.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aburgthing:
Thanks for this post. Agreed some of the excitement has diminished from this groundbreaking phone as well as this thread. I too hang around but many of the longtimers have obviously moved on to the next big thing as too will I since Sprint is jacking my Premiere Gold. More than likely the Epic Touch is looming on the horizon as soon as a reliable root method is obtained. Will continue to check in because I'm passing the Evo down to my son to replace his Hero (bugs me every day :-) ). I have however taken your advice and just flashed the Freedom kernel to give it spin as having HDMI out again would be nice so thanks to bringing that to fore.

Update: HDMI out performed without a hitch. Just scored my highest on Homerun Battle 3D :-) and watched a couple of videos. Thanks again!

Swyped from my Warm Gingerbread Evo 4D (smellaphone)
[EVO 4G Android Development] NxNW:
Actually, I'll agree with that: I went to send a small (2.76MB) video via MMS yesterday and couldn't because it kept saying it was too large. It was literally a six-second video. I realize MMS wasn't really intended to distribute large amounts of video, but six seconds? Videos shorter than that are hardly videos at all.

So if that is what everyone is talking about when they say "MMS compression problem", fine, I agree, that should be improved.

Note I am not seeing "Error for Out of memory – Unable to send SMS" - I'm just talking about "Message size limit reached - Sorry you cannot attach this to your message".

I did flash the famous "Voice Recognition doesn't work in Noisy Environments after upgrading to Gingerbread" patch provided by Captain Throwback and mentioned several times in this thread by now (see http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=17411047#post17411047 to trace how this fix got from 'Captain Throwback' on themikmik.com to 'wysiwig' in the XDA freedom kernel thread to 'detcup4evr' in this thread).

I honestly don't know if that patch contains *all* the interesting fixes from the recent OTA update or just the voice fix. I just used it for voice and it totally worked for that.

Does anyone *know* if it contains any more than that? I sniffed around themikmik.com and it seems to me *all* it does is voice.

People have referred to a MMS fix that has been posted in this thread but I wasn't paying attention and couldn't tell you if it's real or what.
[EVO 4G Android Development] marcusva79:
Same here. Vanessa said there was an ota upgrade but that was it. That is the only thing keeping me from using synergy. MikG latest has mms fixed :)

I use the 3.0 rosie & 3.0 widgets along with the red hot synergy theme and I have no landscape. Anyone know why this is? I have the two check in that allow for landscape but when I turn the phone sideways nothing happens.

you answered your own question look in red
[EVO 4G Android Development] Nak131:
I came back to this ROM because I wanted to try out the 3D carousel with the 3.0 widgets and I like all of the Synergy add-on options. I tried some Sense 3.0 ROMs, but after everything settled my carousel was always super laggy despite any kernels or scripts I tried. The same thing is happening to me on this ROM... can anyone tell me why? Is anyone using the 3D carousel with the 3.0 widgets and having it run smoothly? Cuz I am stumped at this point and I'm hoping someone can help me out!
[EVO 4G Android Development] leon sprouse:
Thats what i am using and it seems to work good. What I don't like is you can't have a flip clock . In fact when I installed the carousel I lost my clock completely. I haven't been using Synergy too long. I was using Mik3d but its a bata and there are only a couple of themes out for it. This rom has lots of themes and mods but things I was used to working tend to not work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] marvinlh:
same problem i use to have, you need a 3.0 rosie and a 3d clock widget. i use the widgets and carousel and my phone run smooth

Rosie 3.0 will not give you landscape no matter what.
[EVO 4G Android Development] whiterider13:
3.0 Rosie and widgets do not support landscape home screen.

Edit: You beat me to it Vanessa.
[EVO 4G Android Development] skw5115:
With the 3.0 widgets & rosie there is no landscape in sense only in applications
[EVO 4G Android Development] Nak131:
I have a working flip clock and all other sense widgets too. You have to flash the carousel and widgets zip right after you flash this ROM in order for it to work properly (from a clean install as I understand it). Only thing I had to change myself was to add the 3d calendar widget (which I pulled from another ROM) because only the non-3d calendar widget was available.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ssconceptz:

Darn it, I just flashed your zip before I read this. My homescreen is totally borked!

I am going to try just flashing the 3.0 rosie zip before I nandroid restore.

Edit: The 3.0 Rosie zip flashed worked perfect, even restored my widget config!

Gotta love the recovery menu. Seriously.. if you don't.

Hm...I always thought you get green pixelation when rebooting from Amon recovery? It always happens to me when I restore a nandroid or apply an update from the Synergy updater; nothing wrong happens after this.

To be honest, I am not sure because these two roms have a different base. However, I think it should, but don't quote me on that :P
[EVO 4G Android Development] lostsoul77:
Im still using SetCPU to clock down the processor when the battery hits a certain temperature or when the battery level hits a certain level. I do miss having a kernel with different govenors and can't wait until the source code is released so that someone can develop some custom kernels for this ROM.

You guys should add wifi tether beta 14 as it allows widgets with 4g wifi tethering. Looks like the preinstalled sprint hotspot still disabled 4g.

[EVO 4G Android Development] taadow1030:
Sorry for the late comment, but this thread moves incredibly fast. Excellent idea. I recommend listing sync schedule (along with numerous of Apps being synced) and even better... display on time in hours and min. Lastly, what network is being used: wifi and or 3g / 4g. I found that display on time is very important in diffentiating claims. I avg 3 - 5 hours display on time, so 12 or 13 hours total battery time is a good ratio in my opinion. Others may claim 25 hours, but only have 1 hour display on time.
[EVO 4G Android Development] gnmitchell:
I use SetCPU as well. I set it up to underclock (384 min/max) when screen is off as well. I tried it at 248 but had issues with it waking up in time to get a phone call.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Brozono:
I am running apps2sd with an ext3 partition on SDCARD and was not able to install the Warm Skin. I tried applying with Synergy Updater and selecting the zip in Recovery (Anon 2.3).

I was able to pull out the APK from the update zip and install with ADB correctly!
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
It is saving a draft copy without me typing anything in the text portion. I could understand it, if I had typed something.

The only thing in there is the blinking cursor and that's there by default and yes, it still saves it as a draft.

Not necessarily. When I initially receive a text message, read it and then back out of it, everything is fine, however, if I re-read the message and then back out, a draft message is then saved.

My favorite colors are red and black. I would love to see the red keyboard. Is it similar to the one that Chogardjr created where most of the letter keys are black and the function keys are red? The green overscroll I absolutely hate; all because i'm partial to red. Was wondering if it was an easy mod for someone to do. Easiest way to see the overscroll is to go into the settings menu, scroll to the bottom of the menu and keep scrolling even when it won't scroll anymore. You will see the green start fading upwards.

I have regular Synergy installed (no God mode) and I've flashed a different theme. How do I revert back to the stock Synergy theme? Reflash the ROM?

Thanks guys, Synergy makes it feel like I got a brand new phone right when I was getting bored with it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vanessaem:
That would be the easiest way. Wipe the cache and dalvik cache but not data.
[EVO 4G Android Development] CUKIO34:
Is there any plans to update this rom? Or is it perfect the way it is? Ive been using since the release and it seems as of late its been getting choppier and choppier.
[EVO 4G Android Development] leon sprouse:
I did exaxtly like you say. I flashed the 3.0 rosie & 3.0 widgets along with the rom and a week later. I then flashed the Red Hot Synergy theme and then I saw that there was no clock at all. The one that came with the theme disappeared also. So if I clean everything then flash rom then rosie and widget mod I will then have a HTC weather (flip) clock? But if I then install the theme the clock will disappear? I don't know if I ever had a landscape rosie or when I lost it. All I know was that when I rotated the phone it never went to landscape. This was after everything was installed so I don't know if I ever had a landscape or not.After having a flip clock for a couple of months I was surprised that there was none with this rom/theme combo.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Nak131:
Wipe data, cache, and dalvik (and whatever else you feel the need to wipe, except sdcard) then flash the ROM and then flash the carousel+widgets zip file and whatever theme is compatible with the carousel. I don't know about what themes are compatible with what ROMs or add-ons, all I know is that when you wipe all of your data and then flash this ROM and the carousel zip it should work. Just make sure to backup anything important before wiping data.

Ok I love the 3.0 Widgets etc but after install they are far from smooth. No matter how I flash them, the friendstream app is super laggy and switching from page to page is super laggy.

Has anyone tried to port the Real Sense 3.5 Rosie to this?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Nak131:
I agree and I've asked about the carousel being slow but haven't gotten a response... I'd try a Sense 3.0 ROM and see if it's smooth
[EVO 4G Android Development] tommytomatoe:
^^Using any sense 3.0 apks, especially Rosie with carousel, will cause your phone to be laggy or semi-laggy. The level of lagginess depends on the user's tolerance. Sense 3.0 was designed for faster processors and mote internal memory. Our OG evos can't support it 100%. So sense 3.0 have some lag to them. And sense 2.1+3.0 roms that use sense 3.0 Rosie (carousel) will also experience some level of lag, regardless of scripts or kernels. Hope that answers your answer.

But all devices react differently, and thus your mileage may vary.

[EVO 4G Android Development] 1seven:
I hope somebody can help me troubleshoot--I'm unable to flash this ROM at all.

AmonRa tells me flash was successful, and then it gets stuck at the HTC logo on the white background. Waited over 50 minutes (noted the first post said godmode could take up to 30 mins, but mine froze up on both) before pulling the battery and booting back to recovery. Tried regular Synergy first (two times), then godmode to see if that would work--same result.

I've been doing a lot of flashing lately, sampling many ROMs, and am pretty sure I'm not missing anything--haven't had trouble flashing any others. I'm using AmonRa 2.3, wipe *everything* each time. Hardware v3. SD is partitioned, but did not flash any scripts--want to keep install simple, I can do a2sd once the ROM is working, so I just flashed the synergy zip alone. Downloads were good, I verified the hash. Not sure what the problem could be.

I'm sorry there isn't more to go on (if I missed something, just ask), but maybe somebody else has run into similar trouble and can offer some guidance? Now that I've read up some on Sense ROMs and Myn's past work, I'm pretty eager to try this one. Thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] xazilizax:
I flashed Synergy+GodMode RLS1 on my Evo 4G. Where can I look to see that I really do have GodMode version? I had previously flashed this rom, but when I checked Settings - About Phone - System Info, it did not show "GodeMode".
[EVO 4G Android Development] Nak131:
I understand that our phones are 'not powerful enough' for Sense 3.0 but what I don't understand is why the carousel and widgets are smooth right after flashing the ROM but become laggy when all of my apps and data are restored.
