try wiping cache and dalvik cache before flashing the lockring zip
[HTC EVO 3D] kevinrocksman:
THE LOCKRING FIXED IT!!!! Im now idling at 59mah and its been about 6 hours and at 80%
[HTC EVO 3D] jhochst:
Thanks. I noobed out with the ring flash. Wait and see in battery
[HTC EVO 3D] Krairo:
I did that and it said error: in the zip file

All I did was save the unc tarheel png...

And follow the readme.txt

The only thing I didn't do was resize the image but its 100x100 :rolleyes:

Also I don't think I signed it, but my phone's already been rooted if that makes a difference.
[HTC EVO 3D] Bondue:
Hello everyone i have been away for a long time due to an unfortunate free fall my phone made continuing into a swan dive on concrete from the roof of my two story hose replacement phone came with Hboot 1.50 and i tried waiting for rev but i couldnt wait any longer and reluctantly rooted with htc method and i have to say awesome job guys just flashed rom and it is amazing as expected from earliest builds!
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
So I'm on to something with my theory?
[HTC EVO 3D] Axe-08:
That worked I'm on 53% after 12 hours
[HTC EVO 3D] Krairo:
How do I change my kernel & where can I get that kernel from?
[HTC EVO 3D] stunna10201:
I wanted to let you know that I did a review of your ROM. Nice work. Here is the link

[HTC EVO 3D] Keyone:
I didn't use this one, but used some random custom lock ring from the theme section just to test. So far, battery life has significantly improved. So far, from a full charge and light use (like my previous post), it has been over 4 hours and at 68%. It would probably be around 15% by now in my previous post (pre-lock ring change).
[HTC EVO 3D] duclet:
I flashed the lockring this afternoon and going to test it some more tomorrow but based on what I see so far, I think this really is better.
[HTC EVO 3D] davec1234:
If I wanted to read the OP I'd be reading page effing 1.

[HTC EVO 3D] M5Rahul:
Just flashed the stock lockring ... Will post my findings..
[HTC EVO 3D] btwei:
You know how yesterday I put up the screen shot of my battery usage with the phone awake bar being nearly full throughout the day despite the screen being off?

Well after flashing your stock lock ring this morning, the phone awake bar is back to normal. Thanks Vin :] I'm going to charge my phone to full and then test out the battery life again. Hopefully I'll be back to 24 hours+ with low to moderate use.

oh yeah, after changing the Weather lockscreen to Wallpaper lockscreen, weather doesn't show up in my battery usage anymore.
[HTC EVO 3D] ulmo20:
That explains why i never had the bad battery life everyone talked about. i would always flash the custom lock ring immediately after flashing the new rom. And all this time I was giving credit to viper's vipermod. Glad I can give credit where credit is due, thank you Transformers Lock Ring! hehe:D

By the way, i just mentioned like 2 days ago about the quick settings in the drop down menu, instead of recent apps. I can't believe you already have screen shots of one you are working on. That was fast work, thanks Vin! Can't wait to flash it in.
[HTC EVO 3D] Hippie459MN:
Backing up again and going to reflash redline v1 and then flash the stock lockring and see what happens. :) Hope that fixes the huge battery drain here. :)
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
Yeah lockring fixed my phone. However, still not hitting deep sleep according to CPU spy.

[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
So we're throwing me a parade and calling me genius, or is that a bit pretentious?

PS: I like Ice cream cake...hint hint
[HTC EVO 3D] Hippie459MN:
Reflashed Redline v1 and then flashed the stock lockring and huge improvement on my battery. Still not what RC1.3 was but I can work with this now.

In the 5 min I had it booted up to grab the stock lockring from my dropbox I lost 5% and now after, I have only lost about 2% in the last 45 min or so and I am using it a lot too.

Now to try Tiamat kernel and see if I can get it to do any better. :)

Its in the mail! I dont know how long it will take to get there from Minnesota but shouldnt be to long. :)
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
I would call you a genius if you answered you gTalk!!
[HTC EVO 3D] kevinrocksman:
Well if you need a genie pig (were you need someone with a 3500mah battery) (or anytime) Im your guy lol
[HTC EVO 3D] El Ducky:
Good call Vin! I was already having good battery life. After flashing the stock lockring its back to amazing battery life!

So this means we can get back to all the other awesome mods right? LOL
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
If someone wants to take RC2.4 and flash the stock lock ring I would be curious if the phone performs amazingly like it should. I have a feeling it will!
[HTC EVO 3D] duclet:
I'm still on RC2.4 and have flashed the lockring. Worked well yesterday but today will be the real test. Will let you know once I can conclude the data.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
I'm redownloading test 4 again, I didn't have wakelock on that.
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
Sweet thanks!

Thanks for answering me on gTalk again, *****.
[HTC EVO 3D] PatrickHuey:
.....so should I come back from Android Revolution? :)

The Evo 3D.
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
You can do whatever you want. AR is a great ROM, no doubt. I would give us til the next build though. So we can have the lockring fix implemented and a few other minor things.
[HTC EVO 3D] Gellenole:
I flashed RC2 T4 and mentioned that I found the stock lock ring, my battery after that was as good as test 1.3 or even better.

I think the tiamat kernel isn't as good as silver needle, but silver needle needed to support 2.3.4

anyway that was my experience. I'm flashing your Redline v1 in a few minutes though!
[HTC EVO 3D] Roll3r:
I came back ;)
[HTC EVO 3D] steve97ta:
I'm back and loving it hahaha

Did the lockring fix, flashed tiamat kernel stock clocking speed and undervolted -75. Battery has been very nice! Something so simple and it worked thanks vinchenzop and viper!
[HTC EVO 3D] duclet:
Alright, I can confirm that it is most definitely the lockring even for RC2.4. I have my phone on for nearly 6 hours now with light use and the battery has only been down 7% whereas normally, I would be down 15% by now. So that lockring issue is causing me twice my battery life.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
Lockring fix....
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
Indeed. But not answering gTalk = great phail...
[HTC EVO 3D] steve97ta:
Hmm so flashing any other 2.3.4 lockring should be cool since it doesn't have the viper graphic in it?
[HTC EVO 3D] Roll3r:
I'm getting slightly better battery than I did on RC1.4, but still dropping ~10% an hour with light use on Anthrax build 186 (I had stock lockring on both RC and Redline). On Revolution 1.1.2 I was dropping ~5%. I'll keep an eye on it for the next day or two.
[HTC EVO 3D] kevinrocksman:
sooo.. which one is better in the sense (lol) of more things added to it? Test 4 or the redline?
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
Test 4 had all the features
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
The one I posted, yes
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
I added the stock Lockring to the 4th post (mod post) so people don't have to search for it
[HTC EVO 3D] steve97ta:
Getting great battery life so far with redline might flash test 4 and stock lick ring tonight see how it goes
[HTC EVO 3D] southphillysean:
Great rom Viper!
[HTC EVO 3D] mrlakadaddy:
Wow!! Battery life improved immensely!! Thanks guys!!
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
Glad things have seemed to improved for everyone!
[HTC EVO 3D] Gellenole:
damn I never get that little battery life loss and i'm barely touching my phone, how do you get such little use? -- leaving the phone just blank i'm getting crappy batterylife compared to you
[HTC EVO 3D] I_Am_Lorde:
Can anyone verify whether or not battery life increases with the tiamat kernel? If so, are there any issues when using that kernel?
[HTC EVO 3D] duclet:
I try keep the number of services running as low as possible (I only have Gentle Alarm and System Panel running). I would use titanium to freeze all the extra bloat that I don't need like Sense (I actually like Sense but can't stand the seven screens). Having JuiceDefender also helps.
[HTC EVO 3D] steve97ta:
Well first just flashing the stock lock ring, u will notice the difference. I'm using the tiamat kernel myself and have amazing results using the OC daemon and viper control. Read up on it in the OP.

Current settings with tiamat:

Awake

Governor. Ondemand

Min. 384000

Max. 1188000

Sleep

Governor. Conservative

Min. 384000

Max. 432000 (might be off a digit but its the lowest 4 one LOL)

Then undervolt is -100 mv

[HTC EVO 3D] vanjangles:
So I downloaded redline, charged up my phone fully then took it off the charger and went to bed. Woke up and it was almost dead. Checked BBS and had no wakelocks but when I checked CPU spy it said my phone never went into deep sleep. It had 93% at 432MHz. Is the viperROM lockring what's causing that or something else?
[HTC EVO 3D] kevinrocksman:
the lockring. DId you flash the lock ring fix?
[HTC EVO 3D] Hippie459MN:
Flash the stock lock ring in Post #4. My battery life more than tripled once I flashed it. The lock ring in RL v1 is the issue.

Going to be flashing Tiamat kernel today and give that ago as well and see if I can get even more battery life out of this thing. :D
[HTC EVO 3D] vanjangles:
OK I flashed the stock lockring..The phone still will not go into deep sleep. Before the lockring fix it was staying at 432MHz, after flashing it it will only go down to 192 MHz. It's saying 96%. Now looking at BBS it it saying I have a wakelock for .com.htc.weatheridlescreen.Weather which is at 89%. Is that wakelock from me having the weather lockscreen enabled?
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
The Lockring was causing the issues with the lockscreen usage. You may have to recalibrate your battery stats and see if you're still getting that wakelock
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
I think Vin and I have a plan for something after all of this testing and reporting about the lockring. Hang tight :)
[HTC EVO 3D] ccleven:
HTC HUB not Working

Thanks Guys for the awesome Rom....

But I am also having issues with the HTC HUB not working.
[HTC EVO 3D] ulmo20:
I've had consistently awesome battery life on both rc2.4 and redline, using a custom lock ring, vipermod and the Tiamat kernel. I can get 2 days on one charge with light/moderate use.

Great job, guys. I'm eager to see what Vin and Viper have up their sleeves.
[HTC EVO 3D] Gellenole:
One quick thing to add that I just found out -- if you flash anything other than stock kernel you lose sprint unlocked tethering. i'm sad.
[HTC EVO 3D] vanjangles:
Calibrated the battery stats, and the phone still won't go into deep sleep. Been at 192MHz for 6 hours total now. No wakelocks now from what I can tell. Anybody have any idea's?
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
Did you adjust settings in the vc?

By default, the min sleep frequency.is 192000...which btw, is the lowest you can go

Edit: do you have auto-sync active (in accounts and sync)? That could be keeping your phone from going into an idle like state
[HTC EVO 3D] I_Am_Lorde:
After calibrating the battery I was going to flash the new lockring and battery mod but my battery drained 10%. Before I went Into recovery,I was at 99%, when I rebooted I was at 89%. Anyone else have this issue?
[HTC EVO 3D] nikkibailey1968:
really stupid question

forgive me if this info can be found elsewhere (if so please direct me to the page), but I'm new to rooting the Evo 3D. Used to flash roms on original evo all the time.

Anyway, I have hboot 1.5 and am using the fastboot method to flash. But am a bit confused with the way it's set up, so here's my question/questions:

#1. When flashing a new rom, should I choose the option that says clear data/factory reset? Won't this remove root? The reason I ask, I just flashed this rom (can't wait to try it out) and didn't have to set google, etc up again. All apps were still there, etc. So not sure I did it right.

#2. The Sprint hotspot that's been unlocked with this rom. HOW do I know it's unlocked and Sprint won't charge me? Meaning, do I just choose it and turn it on? Or do I have to do something special

Sorry for the bonehead questions but appreciate anybody's help
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
Dear bonehead, ;)

Question 1...

Almost every custom ROM that you find in the dev section is a "rooted ROM", which means it contains the binaries necessary for apps to attain "root privileges" already baked into it. A full wipe (data/factory reset) is always recommended to allow the new ROM to start from scratch, and not build on any possible flaws that your previous ROM may of had.

2. If the sprint hotspot works, its unlocked. Sprint cant tell that you're using the hotspot (aside from assuming you are based on a large increase in data usage if you're constantly downloading torrents). If the sprint hotspot is locked, and you attempt to use it, it will give you a message that says something like "you don't have a subscription to use hotspot"
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
I believe that the battery reporting screw-ups is native to Android 2.3.4, as I've experienced situations like the one you described on any 2.3 4 based ROM I've tested
[HTC EVO 3D] Roll3r:
Same here. I've seen my battery go from 70% to 10% after a reboot, then back to 60% after another.
[HTC EVO 3D] I_Am_Lorde:
Oh okay i wasn't sure about it. Thanks for the replies. Vin do you use the stock kernel or a different one?
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
ATM, I've reflashed test 4 to test if the lockring was the problem with previous test builds. The tiamat kernel came stock with this build, so that's what I've got going for me right now.

But overall, I'm not usually one to pay much attention to kernels. Very rarely am I in a situation where I need my phone's battery to last longer than 6 hours, and I don't play alot of games, so being able to overclock isn't on my priority list.

As a dev, particularly of this ROM, my main focus is stability of the ROM out of the box. I use my phone as my sole alarm clock, so my job literally depends on my phones ability to be stable, particularly throughout the night.
[HTC EVO 3D] reverepats:
Hey vinny what Voltage is the battery in your OG EVO?...
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
No idea, its in Illinois...sold it for $155...guy received it today

It was the stock htc battery though
[HTC EVO 3D] reverepats:
Ohh that's great man. I can't sell mine LOL....I'm starting to miss my EVO. ITS sitting next to me with the battery out of It. Poor little guy. Alright no biggy. I'll just Google it. Thanks buddy!
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
No problem brother, glad to see you still hanging around :)

Just be patient with your sale. I bumped mine every few days for 2 weeks, then the same day had two people pm me with my asking price ($150+ $5 for Paypal fees)
[HTC EVO 3D] srb7215:
Tried this ROM again once the fix seemed to be found and I still had a wake lock problem. I flashed the ROM and immediately flashed the original lock screen. Then let the phone sit for a few minutes and when I picked it up, no sleep.

I might try this again later but I need a phone tomorrow.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
@srb7215

May I suggest trying the test 4 version of the ROM...link can be found in first post...I had a wakelock with the redline version too

Here's link to test 4 (it says test 28 on the zip)

http://dev-host.org/ko6e6o14zsgy/viperROM_RC2_Rebuild_Test28.zip
[HTC EVO 3D] kevinrocksman:
found something else out today. If you flash any other kernel to the reline rom if you try to change the banner name it wont change even though it says it does
[HTC EVO 3D] srb7215:
I will give it a try. Thanks.

Camera Question

Besides not getting HTC HUB to work...

How do I get the Camera mods to work (Panorama, HDR, shutter sound disabled, Scenes, and Long press to capture) ??

I press the magic wand button and all i get are the regular effects...distortion, vignette...

Thanks!
[HTC EVO 3D] libai8268:
I confirm that even with stock lockring flashed, my phone still wouldn't go into deep sleep. Therefore I had to flash RC1.3 back which has pretty good battery life. But thanks for all the hard work.
[HTC EVO 3D] claude9039u:
Quick question trying to change the ViperROM RC2 Test4 to my own name anyone know how to do this?
[HTC EVO 3D] steve97ta:
terminal emulator in the daemon/viper control, read the OP to see how to use the Daemon
[HTC EVO 3D] claude9039u:
cant do it "Search is down for maintenance. Please check back in 1 to 2 hours." And I have no idea where is OP I can use Daemon only by copying instructions lo.

---------- Post added at 01:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:31 AM ----------

I also can't set vibration only to the notifications?
[HTC EVO 3D] steve97ta:
The OP is the Original Pose, 1st page 1st post.... See below

---------------------- Special Features of viperROM ----------------------

OC Daemon

The OC daemon was created by rmk40 of Team Unity. I take no credit for the daemon, only the script I made to make it easier to work with. More information can be found here, but I will sum it up and explain the script below...

This daemon, written in C, completely eliminates the need for SetCPU and other CPU controlling apps. The daemon handles min/max frequencies for both screen on and screen off but it has one more trick up its sleeve... It can change the governor INSTANTLY depending on the screen state. I have tested it and I can tell you that it really does work instantly and I think this is going to be a great battery saver! I have set default values within the ROM as follows: Screen Off - conservative @ 192min/486max and Screen On - ondemand @ 192min/1188max. Using these settings, I get NO lag. Battery life is amazing, over 19+ hours for me with moderate usage!

If you decide that you want to change the settings of the daemon, here is how you do so...

•Open up Terminal Emulator

•Type "su" (without the quotes and grant it Superuser access if you haven't already)

•Type "vc" (without the quotes)

•Enter "1" (without the quotes) and you will see all of your options
[HTC EVO 3D] fisher1991:
Just one question does this rom have beets enabled
[HTC EVO 3D] smw6180:
I hope not. Beets are revolting. I vastly prefer carrots, or even radishes.
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
lmao!!! but to answer the question, no. Doesn't seem like it does anything.

Anyway, when I get home I'm gonna try to cook up something for you guys before work. We are bringing back RC2.4 as Redline v2 with the stock lock ring. It has all the tweaks and everything done and since We know the issue with that build was the lockring, I'll take care of that, fixing hotspot, and a few other things. I've had that build on my phone the last 2 days and it's barely draining at all on Wi-Fi, even less than the latest.

Thanks for sticking with us everyone :)
[HTC EVO 3D] Hippie459MN:
Mine changed back to saying Sprint after flashing the stock lock ring to and it will not change when I try to change it either. It says it changed under VC (option 9) but still displays 'Sprint' on the lock screen. And this was before I flashed Tiamat kernel.

I might go to RC2 beta 4 today to get some of the missing features back like a bunch of the camera effects and flash the stock lock ring to it and see how that goes.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
That's what I did Thursday night/Friday morning. Recalibrated yesterday. I'm at 40% after 6 hours, but I'm at work, which means heavy heavy usage (2 and a half hours screen on time atm).
[HTC EVO 3D] claude9039u:
I did it but still can't find how or where to change ViperROM RC2 Test4 to my own name? Also still can't figure out how to set vibration to notifications? I am running only RC2 Test 4 no other mods and this morning when I took the phone off the charger at 9 am its now 1PM and the battery lever is at 53%? Not sure the battery fix is working as I just let the phone sit did not use it at all? Am I missing installing something?
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
Ah, Vin used the stock lockscreen_base. We had originally used the modded one with no bubbles and it had the option to change your text. I will fix that :)

If you still see viperROM RC2 Test4, then you didn't flash the lock ring .zip. It would change to Sprint because it's the stock lockscreen_base, not the modded one that allows for the text at the top. That also means you don't have the battery fix implemented.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
I wanted to use the 100% stock one so we could, without a shadow of a doubt, determine if it was that particular file/issue.
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
I think that was a good idea, I'm just saying we will have to correct that :)
[HTC EVO 3D] claude9039u:
Ok found stock lock ring in post #4 could you please driect me to the battery fix please.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
The Lockring fix is the battery fix. There was a bad image in the Lockring that came with the ROM and was causing battery life issues. The Lockring fix can be found in the 4th post of this thread (I'm the poster of the post)
[HTC EVO 3D] claude9039u:
Thank you sir booting up now. Nad thank you very much for the excellant rom!!!!! Been using it from the start and will be the only one I use untill I go to the next phone lol.

One las stupied thing is there a way to make the phone vibrate instead of a tone for notifications? I can't seem to figure it out?
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
From settings, choose "sound" and be sure vibration is checked to do it all the time. Then you can just use the side rockers (physical vol up and vol down buttons) to go all the way down volume wise and it will be vibrate only mode
[HTC EVO 3D] claude9039u:
OK now I feel stupied? I am in sound setting I have vibrate checked off and the sound turned all the way down for notifications. I send myself an email and not vibration? I turn the notification volume back up send myself and email and I get the tone but no vibration? But on phone calls it will ring and vibrate no problems. and if I turn the volume down it will also vibrate for phone calls????

Thanks man
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
For email vibration notifications....if you're using the htc mail app, you've got to enable vibration from within the mail app.

Open the mail app, press menu, choose "more", then "settings". From there, notification settings, and put the check in the box next to vibrate...
[HTC EVO 3D] claude9039u:
not using htc mail app just gmail.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
I don't know, it just works with my phone
[HTC EVO 3D] claude9039u:
lol lol lol
[HTC EVO 3D] claude9039u:
I figured out Gmail now notifies per label - you have to go into the "Labels to notify" under Settings now, then setup notifications for each label that you might have.
[HTC EVO 3D] drivenapollo:
I just wanted to say nice work on redline. Phone is running awesome. No freeze ups since I put on a week ago. Battery life has been awesome too. Longest time up I have had on a sense rom with out a lock up or random reboot.

Nice to see viper back in the game and kicking ass!

Evo 3D taking it to Redline!
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
Thanks for the report! Did you flash the stock lock ring .zip? And what kernel are you running? You have fantastic flat lines on that graph, that's what you should see when the phone isn't doing anything.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
Flat lines like this?!
[HTC EVO 3D] sofla2:
This first shot is my first day on Redline, with the custom lockring. I took the phone off the charger, put it in my pocket and didn't touch it for 5 1/2 hours. It drained 80% with absolutely no use.

​

This next shot is the day after flashing the stock lockring. Same 5 1/2 hour time period, but this time with heavy use. Even with the heavy usage, only drained 43%.

​

Today, I had to do some waiting around with nothing to do. I watched several episodes of a TV show on YouTube for a SOLID 4 hours before power saver came on at 15%.

The only change I made after that 80% drain was to wipe the delvic and cache and install the stock lockring.
