So whats a good way to "check" its working properly if you have the pre-installed cma2sd in Synergy running?
[EVO 4G Android Development] vanessaem:
LOL...I agree Roscoe. FAQ would be useless on this thread or as a separate thread for all the reasons you mentioned. Basically it goes like this:

"I don't feel like searching through x-number of pages or googling the answer, so I'm going to ask a question that's been asked and answered x-number of times because I'm special and I want someone else to find the answer for me. I'm oblivious or don't care that other people have had the same issue as me because I want to post my very own question about the subject and it's about me and my problem only." :cool:
[EVO 4G Android Development] cephraim:
I thought this ROM had the SD card tweaks in it already?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Alpine-:
I believe it does. The EVO 4G "features list" in this thread is sparse but the more complete RLS1 list in the Droid Incredible thread shows it. Im sure its in the full changelog somewhere too.

"Tweak to increase sdcard read ahead buffer (Thanks Calk)"

"CyanogenMOD A2sd Scripts Modified by Virus and Robocik"

He's also talking about specific tools (an actual app) to run a speed test on the SD card. I'd imagine SD-Booster essentially does the read ahead buffer tweak too but I'm unsure. There is only so much you can do to "tweak" the SDCard.

FYI here is the Full RLS1 feature list from that Droid Incredible thread.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cephraim:
I found the cache was set to 512K with that SD Tool. So, I set it to 2048, and it DID increase my read speed (22MB/s->31MB/s on my Class 10), at least according to SD Tool. 3D Gallery loading seems to be about the same...
[EVO 4G Android Development] dgcruzing:
A Tweak is a tweak, tis a tweak....and no matter how it is done..

if the before and after show a increase in speed..

Then.. zoom zoom..

Lol, I agree with u and the other guys about the FAQ, but as roscoe point it out it becomes useless especially if is not enforce by the regulars, I for one don't mind helping new dudes out and I know that u coil r also an example of helping folks out all the time, but sometimes the repetitive questions get to be tiresome even more when someone is asking for help and the answer to that same question has been answered just a page back.

In order for an FAQ to work, it needs to be enforce, example:

New user: help!!!! I just installed godmode and its taken longer than usual to boot up! (which by the way is stated in the op)

Or:

New user: help!!!! I'm trying to download Synergy, but all I get is a HTML file!

The answer should be:

Regular user: go to the post # (where the FAQ section is) the solution to your question is there)

That is the only way I can envision it to work, some people might not like that, and it might not sound like the mynion way but is the only way in my opinion that the FAQ idea would work.

[EVO 4G Android Development] dgcruzing:
I got my FAQ

its called MS Onenote..

While you are reading, copy and paste all relevant posts, threads, links

to anything you are about to do.. this way you can come back to them..

As its taken me all day to work out, the little bits and pc's needed to do a full

reflash..

my main thing that pushed me in to it was I had somehow screwed up the Wifi connection.. i.e wouldnt let me get an i.p address off my router.. and no matter how wipes and resets would it let me get back to base..

Thus.. it was time for a fresh, clean install on everything..

But hey.. been an interesting day reading over the old stuff..

on the other hand.. I had to knock back a visitor of the opposite sex for an afternoons delight.. EVO or girl, EVO or girl.. hummmm

Evo won out.. as there's always another day for girls..
[EVO 4G Android Development] tommytomatoe:
What are you doing over here? LOL. :-)
[EVO 4G Android Development] tuscolavol:
Sorry if you have already stated this but have you partitioned? You could look at Titanium Backup.

But I highly recommend you looking into changing over to Dark Tremors. The pre-installed one stores dalvik in your sd and it's not changable. DT puts dalvik in internal with the option to move it to your cache partition or even back to your sd card. Plus you can dl one of those apps to manipulate your settings.

Man this feels like i started this argument. Man this sux. I agree with everyone about a faq page . I did my reasearch before i asked a question about MMS. Been a mynion sense rls1 twopointtwo. found that certain phones are affected by the badly compression and mine is one of them. I really can't wait for a fix :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Alpine-:
Why not just create and ext3 partition on your class 6 card and use the default cma2sd setup when you flash Synergy? What are the pros and cons? I mean, dalvik either place should be fast if its a fast card. I guess I always thought Synergy DID place the dalvik on internal? Dalvik on internal, apps on ext3 partition on SD. This is above me a bit I guess.

Can't attach picture

OK. ..This one is DRIVING ME CRAZY and I am sorry if this has been posted, but the search is down.

Bottom line, I want to send a picture of the lake to my friend.

I click the paper clip, find the image, click it, it goes back to the message with nothing attached. I do this a dozen times, nothing, doesn't matter what picture.

I pull the battery, then it works for a while, then the same thing.

I try to attach a picture and it comes up with an empty text message. It says LOADING, but when it does attach, it says COMPRESSING...

Anything I can do? Pulling the battery is not a fix!

Hey Mike, I've seen some guys have the same issue with mms, try cleaning the mms app data, if that doesn't work try wiping cache and dalvik and reflashing the rom.

You can also try hancent or go SMS, both great alternatives to stock SMS, I am using go sms, it has great features and IMO is better than stock.

Another black magic voodoo user! (Sorry, I'm catching up on 3 days of posts (self inflicted punishment i know), but couldn't resist)
[EVO 4G Android Development] blackangst:
I was having some issues with RLS, so I flashed back to RC1 which has always performed flawlessly for me. I flashed from nandroid. However, my weather now always displays "current location" and not my city. When I hit the weather page, it says it unable to contact the location service...BUT! the weather its displaying IS correct, and it IS updating.

Ive tried going into programs and clearing data in all the weather services also. In my clock it shows my home as Arizona, which is correct, and all my location services are checked on. Any ideas?
[EVO 4G Android Development] mikeinstlouis:
Hey Lrod!

Thanks for the response. How do I go about cleaning the MMS data?

I am going to take Vanessa's advice and reformat the SD card.
[EVO 4G Android Development] NxNW:
'

I know this is not an ideal workaround, but did you ever try going "the other direction"?

Don't start in the MMS app, start in the Gallery app.

Here's how I did it:

In Gallery, click the "share" button. In the "Share via" dialog, select "Messages" app. Select the desired picture. Then you will be taken to the MMS app. Compose your mms message from there.

Not a real fix, but it worked for me at least.
[EVO 4G Android Development] marvinlh:
What is the point of updating your radios ?

Does it make signal better or something?
[EVO 4G Android Development] mikeinstlouis:
That is definitely an approach. Thanks!

I just reformated my SD card. We can see how that works. I may just reflash everything and start fresh. I am restoring my apps from Titanium back up batch. I am not restoring the data, just the apps. I wonder if it is an app.?? Hopefully the reformating helps. I went a head and partitioned it (as in the directions on the first page) just in case I need it in the future.

Thanks all.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vanessaem:
Reformatting you SD is no guarantee but it may clear up some things. I remember I had a whole lot of crap on my card which caused many issues and have now become picky and choosy about what I put on it. Often I check it out for rogue files and delete them.

As long as you're sure not to restore System data, you should be ok. It's a good idea what you're doing so far. I've never had the mms compression issue but hopefully everything works out.
[EVO 4G Android Development] marvinlh:
Could someone please briefly answer my last post or point me in the right direction
[EVO 4G Android Development] KB112:
Yes, supposed to help with signals and be more battery efficient too I believe.
[EVO 4G Android Development] marvinlh:
And how would I go about choosing the radios, would I have to test different radios, just as I had to do with the kernels?
[EVO 4G Android Development] NxNW:
I have two beliefs about radios:

1) Use the latest

2) Don't pull the battery during a radio update no matter what

Flashing radios seems risky in ways experimenting with kernels does not. I would not go back and forth. Get current, and if you are still having issues with something, exhaust all other avenues before revisiting radios.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vanessaem:
Neither you nor I are willing to pull up any past posts at this time on why you should upgrade your radios so I found this link to be very helpful and quicker than waiting for an answer.

[EVO 4G Android Development] marvinlh:
Could someone post a link to the latest radios? It's very hard searching from my phone And does a nand restore, restore previous radios?
[EVO 4G Android Development] NxNW:
Radios are not affected by nand restores, non-combo ROM flashes, factory resets, SD card partitioning, just about everything but another radio flash.

Here's a link. Good luck.

I just flashed RLS1+GOdMode phone with Freedom 0.8.5 (medium level, running at about 1.2ghz) and this thing is running very fast but I am having two issues;

1. It has trouble charging, when I connect the charger the charge LED will come on, then go off, then come back on. If i attempt to do anything with the phone while charging (ex: open up a text) it stops charging.

2. I am getting random re-starts. Not that frequent but still getting them.

Does anyone have any advice on how to address those issues? The ROM runs excellent with the Kernel beyond those two drawbacks. Thanks in advance guys.

Flashing Themes

I am not completely new to this but now totally lost. I rooted 2.3 through Revolutionary (excellent discovery by all those involved), loaded Synergy RLS 2 w/ God mode and cannot load the U of Michigan or Metallica themes. I have done all of the recommended instructions that are listed either in the beginning of this post, for each individual theme, or listed somewhere here in the post by others. I was able to get the clear Rosie, but that has been all so far. The only pattern I am able to find is that every time I clear cache and dalvik cache, I get forced close errors on some apps (Ti, Handcent, Gmail, Lookout mostly). I am not sure what I a missing and would appreciate someone, preferably only one person to be a constant point of contact to avoid more confusion and conflicting info/opinions, that can assist me with this. Please let me know whatever details you may need. Many advanced thanks for your help.
