can anyone give me a zip to fill in the transparent drop down menu? or you cant revert back to normal gb drop down?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Beermuny:
I'm having the same problem I had with the 6/20 build, whenever I flash any custom kernel, it breaks my WiFi. I get ERROR when in settings under WiFi. Anyone else having the same problem?
[EVO 4G Android Development] davidc23:
Format everything and wipe dalvik and cache. Then flash 1.3 with correct gapps. Then check if wifi works...then restore all apps (:
[EVO 4G Android Development] wudstock54:
Can you say fast and stable? Sure, I knew you could.

Great job. Thanks for your work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Beermuny:
I always start with a complete wipe and also use a format zip. I also flashed the correct gapps. I've had this problem with only the current stable build and the previous one.

[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
If you don't mind, can you provide us with a list of the issues you're referring to so that we can collectively try to help you fix them. I would like you to experience what the rest of us are experiencing....a fast, stable and dependable rom. I have flashed more roms than I care to recall, including CM, but I always return to at least two. One of them is Salvage-Mod and the other is a certain Sense-based rom. Why?...because they work. So please, help us help you. Enjoy the rest of your day....;)

At the Devs,

Thanks for checking on the GPS issue with CarHome (I use Ultra). I was getting the same thing...a GPS lock, but within a few seconds, it would drop. Now here in K.C., it is storming like crazy, but it's good to know that it's at the app level and not the ROM. Speaking of which, I did do a clearing of the data in Google Maps, just for the hell of it.

All I can say is that this ROM is on FIRE! You guys know what the **** you are doing!
[EVO 4G Android Development] fitz420:
Another "error free" experience here. Flashed and setup last night and been using all morning without a single issue.

I'm running the odexed version with tiamat 3.3.7 SBC and I've successfully setup darktremor a2sd with an ext4 partition for apps.

Keep up the great work and thanks for such a quick, lightweight AND ERROR FREE rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nYdGeo:
My only question is that you mention that you're experiencing Sense FC's...this is an AOSP ROM, so there is no Sense UI. I certainly won't say that you don't know what you're doing, but somewhere in the process that you are following, something isn't happening that needs to, because after wiping everything and flashing this ROM, it should be impossible for your to have any event related to the Sense UI.

Good luck!
[EVO 4G Android Development] nYdGeo:
Question, and I mean no disrespect to any dev or dev group that puts their hard work out there for us to enjoy. I've been using the SZ kernels with everything AOSP for some time with spectacular results. I'm delighted to learn that your relationship with the Tiamat group is good and solid, but at this time do you feel that their kernel is superior to the SZ? Or, both great, but prefer the tiamat at this time because...? Relationship with SZ gone downhill?

Just curious as to why the change. Thank you for your time.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jaredschiro:
I love this rom. I have been looking for an odex asop for awhile. Is there anyone that can help me get the option to turn off voicmail notifications like in CM7? I have the ghost voicmail icon problem and the only way I have found to get rid of it is that option in CM7.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nYdGeo:
Thank you for this post. You may have actually partially answered a question that I have in a previous post. I do have on other question regarding something that I've read numerous time...but do not understand.

Can anyone give me any sort of technical explanation for the ideology behind letting a ROM, a kernel, or a ROM/kernel combo 'settle in'? I'm not a dev, but an IT Professional with an understanding of many things dev oriented so feel free to get as technical as needed...or not. I would very much like to understand this from a technical point of view as right now it is somewhat of a logic puzzle that my OCDs keep wailing on.

Thank you for your time and assistance.
[EVO 4G Android Development] fitz420:
I was wondering if there is a setting or will be one for the browser reflow like in cm7/decks? I use the stock browser and can't live without it.

Also, although I'm liking your wallpapers there was a specific standard aosp one that I've always used. Can u tell me how or where to get one of the ones you've excluded.

Thanks again, this thing is soooo fast
[EVO 4G Android Development] mike.r.olson:
SalvageMod has always been my preferred AOSP ROM and I left to go to Deck due to Deck being a "newer" ROM. Honestly I had thought development on SM had slowed or even gone away.

Last night when I saw that SM 1.3 (stable) had been released, I nearly **** myself. Did a clean TB backup, Nandroided and flashed within 10 minutes of learning of the release.

I have had absolutely no issues with the ROM so far, I flashed Tiamat 4.0.5-SBC and I'm completely satisfied with the performance of the ROM so far. I'll hold my thoughts on battery life for a few days until the ROM/kernel settle in.

I will say that it is DAMN nice to be back on SM and I MISSED YOU GUYS!!! Great work on the 1.3/2.3.4 release!
[EVO 4G Android Development] alaman68:
I flashed Tiamat 3.3.8 sbc and everything works fine.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nYdGeo:
I regret that this simple logic escapes you, and I truly do not intend to be mean, but if you are one of 10 people using the same ROM on the same model phone, and they are happily using the ROM without issue while you are suffering issue after issue, the unique identifiers are you and your phone. One of you isn't doing something right related to the utilization of the ROM. It actually is that simple.

Good luck, and I truly hope that you are able to identify the true cause of the issues that you've been experiencing.

I did not get this issue. I have other issues, but not this one.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lithid-cm:
Basically, this is a topic we don't really talk about. We had the Rom and they had the kernel. When they started working on the Rom they jumped to conclusions and claimed things like stealing ideas. Not our cup of tea. If they stuck with kernels alone i doubt we would have an issue.

We are currently adding in the code for this to happen now. Maybe in our next release it will be stable enough to release it.

Basically settling time for the rom and kernel is battery related. Everytime you flash a new rom, your battery stats get erased, and/or don;t function correctly. Giving your rom a few days and battery charges ensures that your battery stats are correct and your battery/rom/kernel are running properly.

This is another option we have looked into, we have not had any testing done with this. But its very possible in a future release.

As for wallpapers here is the wallpaper app with the aosp and salvagemod wallpapers. Pick your wallpaper and download it to your phone and set it!

I am sorry to hear that you seeing some issues, this issue that your seeing is related to not wiping properly. If you need some assistance in flashing this rom please check out our wiki page:

Generic ROM question

So, I flashed this amazingly thin and sweet piece of ROM meat and found it force closing the theme manager. Imagine my surprise because I know this rom does not have one because I read it. I had wiped a few things so I thought I was safe and it was late so it made sense that all my apps were still installed. Anyway, what I'm asking is: What exactly is flashed that erases the "Apps" portion of the phone/sd card? Initially I did factory reset and dalvik. When I noticed my mistake I wiped everything on the AMON RA list besides sd card, reflashed the ROM and the GAPPS and now its all good. I came from CM7 and its a really great ROM and well developed. It has a lot of setting I don't use so SalvageMOD might be best for ME. Thanks again to the DEVS who do this for free, put up with dumbness, and still care for the rest of us.
[EVO 4G Android Development] interloper:
Issue 1: I'm dumb

Issue 2: Not enough coffee

Issue 3: I did not wipe well enough or the recovery did not do it properly. I think I have it now though. I'm going to try some of the APPS on this thread in a bit, but so far I really think this release rocks. Sorry if my previous post caused people to think my issues were ROM related.
[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:
Hey. Check the forum attachments. I posted a phone apk I'd like you guys with this issue to test. Just push it to system/app, reboot.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
If you find the SalvageMod rom to be fast, stable, clean and dependable, I highly doubt that you are dumb, my friend....;)....We all have done things when we were tired and ended up with undesirable results. The main thing is that you wete able to make corrections. Anyway, after you've got your device the way you want it, update us on how you lije the rom. In the meantime, enjoy your day...:)

Flash via recovery.

EDIT: Still no response on the voicemail notification. I'm assuming people are unsure what to do with the apk? I've built a flashable. I have not signed it since I hacked it together at the school I'm at right now =P so make sure you don't use sig verification. This will replace your phone.apk and gives you an option to disable voicemail notifications. Someone with issues please test this and report back.

Tiamat Flash/WIFI

I flashed Tiamat 4.0.5 about an hour ago. No wifi issues thanks to some clarification. This ROM really is great. No bulk, no bugs, no bull. Now that the 3D is out I am concerned dev'ing for this device will stop. BUT, if it stops here, I can deal!
[EVO 4G Android Development] cygnus:

[EVO 4G Android Development] locoboi187:
The GPS toggle notification widget turns off the GPS but will NOT turn it back on even though it shows it's on in settings or the status bar. This can be demonstrated when in the Navigation app. Set your destination and toggle the GPS off, it will turn off. But toggle it back on, there is still NO GPS. I tried different GPS drivers but this is persistent. Any solutions for this? Thanks :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] gotshores:
Hey barnacles, I'm not sure if this helps with the car home app issue, but the mikg Rom has the car home app and then another app called car home launcher. I'm not sure if this is some type of mod, but maybe it'll help. When I get home this evening I can post both apks.

Barnacle, when making a theme in the UOT kitcken for the SM odex rom you framework-res.apk only no systemui.apk to be uploaded. I just want to clarify before I make a them for my odex rom. Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] lithid-cm:
Yes only push the framework-res.apk
[EVO 4G Android Development] sag7392:
I hope this helps with both issues and I'm not stepping on the Dev's toes...but, I had very similar issues with GPS in Navigation and with Car Home Ultra. So what I did was download the first listed GPS driver from here, flashed it and tested it. After testing, I found the GPS issues with both apps (and Google Maps and Where) to be long gone...everything works and it works well! Just so you know...I'm running SZ 2.2.1 as my kernel.

I really hope this helps.

@Devs

I don't know how many times I can say this, but this is hands down the best ****ing ROM out!

[EVO 4G Android Development] locoboi187:
Yeah i flashed Cyanogen Mod Nightly 39 GPS Driver but GPS works fine for me stock or with that flashed. The problem I'm having is with the GPS toggle widget in notifications. It'll turn off the GPS but wont really turn it back on.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sag7392:
Okay...i don't have that issue...since I don't turn my GPS off...sorry bro.
[EVO 4G Android Development] locoboi187:

[EVO 4G Android Development] sag7392:

[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:
It's really up to you. This is the supersonic driver from the 4.24 HTC release. If you're having issues, I'd say go for it, but if your GPS is working well, or you've already flashed an updated driver, then I don't see much need.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ak074:
just because you are having issues doesn't mean that it's the rom's fault.
[EVO 4G Android Development] locoboi187:

Force Closing

Maybe I'm off base adding this, but I will because there are a lot of people having the same type of issue on this thread. If your newly flashed ROM is force closing apps do two things: Wipe, wipe again, then wipe. Next, fix permissions. Ok, three things...If the APK is experimental, we all know we run them, uninstall it. We all get a little excited about new tasty candy, but lets be reasonable before jumping to conclusions.

Could you please consider these for future releases?

-Option to disable 270 degree rotation

-Long press home button options

-Play Next / Play Previous by holding down volume button

-Take picture by holding volume button

I don't mean to sound pushy. These are just nice features to have that I think would only add to this great rom.

A question. Is it possible to install the T-Mobile Theme Engine on here? I know the notification bar is different from other roms. Does that bar compatibility?

Thanks.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joshua3109:
Hey, I am currently using Leedroid 3.0.5 with Sense. The other night my friend took out his Iphone 4. He then proceeded to show me a few games on it, which I had on my Desire. I noticed one thing, they ALL ran so much smoother and faster then on my desire. The Iphone 4's interface also seems more responsive then mine. (Not that mine is slow, but until I saw the Iphone 4 in action I never realized the difference)

It got me thinking that maybe the problem is the sense overlay on top of the original Gingerbread. If I remove sense by installing Cyanogen will this speed up my phone? Also, compared to my current Rom how does Cyanogen stack up?

Thanks for any opinions, helpful tips and flaming. See ya!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jukethehitman:
Yes. but oxygen is far quicker then cm7 and leedroid. Sense is nice but it slows your phone down. Get oxygen or cm7 and you will have an iphone beater :)

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cr1960:
Think of it like having a car (any of the AOSP based ROMS - CM, Oxygen, MIUI) then add a trailer (Sense). Naturally the car will go faster without the trailer :)

But at the end of the day, your experience is about more than speed - for some people appearance is important, or eye candy. Really nice to see the weather animation on a Sense 3 lockscreen.... try and do that with an iphone.

I guess what I'm saying that comparing just speed is kinda pointless.
