Let's start here again,

Speculation is all we have, and the network isn't the same everywhere, the network alone could cause odd results as it relates to your area not mine,

But as I see it yes your phone lied to you. The truth about prls and and ROMs with respect to roaming depends on your location, the network isnt created equal LOL, a prl in your area might work better than my area... So only testing different stuff will you find the best solution for you..

Here is my experience,

Me and my girlfriend both went a bought EVO 3ds, I rooted mine she left hers stock. Before I was rooted and had a custom Rom flashed I never seen the 1x icon while roaming. I actually roam quite often too.

So I noticed this and did some testing of my own with my girlfriends stock phone in various places. When the phones are in the same spot her phone will show roaming with the 3g icon, when it switches from roaming to not roaming the icon will sorta go away for a sec then return, I'm assuming this is when the service returns to a useable state, My phone however when I roam no matter where I'm at it goes to 1x, on cleanrom or not. But like I said its safe to assume that when we talk about networks no matter what its all speculation unless you have complete control over the network, and how many people are on that network in your area using the same towers you do.

The bottom line as I see it, is the stock phones lie LOL, hope this helps

Edited: sry if I talk in circles, I'm at work hard to think about working on cars and such at the same time of writing this LOL,

Ive found it really hard to find quality inoformation regarding the sprint network, even their employees have no idea. I've been to two different corporate stores in my area, talked to a bunch of people at each store none of them know to much about it. Just seems hard to find cold hard facts. Especially with the "sprint vision" stuff going on,

[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
You sir, are 100% correct in your statements...

Its only speculation and different area's will have different results.
[HTC EVO 3D] jbermi:
but the mod to correctly show it was started by calk or steelh on the OG EVO way back when, i do believe and that mod was carried over to the 3D.
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Yeah, I am not sure. I think the 2.x ROMS made that native. I need to test it... Can someone flash a stock Rooted ROM from my site and try that for a day and see what happens? I am curious. I gave the 3D to my wife for a couple weeks while I focus on the Evo 4G so I cant easily flash back and forth....
[HTC EVO 3D] mswlogo:
It may have showed 1x you were on a call or messaging or possibly roaming.

But for "Data" on Sprint it was always showing 3G.
[HTC EVO 3D] mozman:
Would you clarify that. For example, I am on 2.8 and when I am streaming music I would see the 3g icon in the status bar switch to 1x. At times the streaming continues. And sometimes it stops because it's too slow. This is happening in new york city. So no roaming there. Just sharing my experience.

Sent from XDA Premium on my EVO 3D
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
When it switches to 1X are you getting a call or a text by any chance? It will revert to 1X with call and I beleive text.
[HTC EVO 3D] hitman4274:
Oops Scott beat me
[HTC EVO 3D] guyver2077:
Can someone link a version of epst that works with this ROM?

Thx
[HTC EVO 3D] mozman:
Ah. I am not getting any phone calls or texts when my 3g switches to 1x. Just streaming music. This happens when I am mobile (traveling on bus or walking) or even sitting at my desk in my office (I am 40 floors up and next to the window).

Went to use camera tonight and it locked up on me.

I like the features, but I rarely use them.

A simple reliable camera is more important.

IMHO better than stock or tweaks of stock but YMMV!
[HTC EVO 3D] mikeyxda:
For me, it's just at 1x when I take it out of my pocket. Phone isn't doing anything and, where I used to get a 3G symbol (with Deck's ROM), I now notice the 1x symbol if I happen to be in an area where it is roaming. Trouble is, I don't know whether it is the ROM, the PRL, or some combination. I don't know if the PRL I'm using is best for my area or I'm using the wrong one, etc. That's where I just wish someone had enough real details (and not speculation) to take the fog out of the situation. Maybe I'll just screw around today and start loading random PRL's to see how they affect it.

I still get force closes every now and then when using the search feature. I have cleared everything out within google search but still get them sporadically. When it closes out I try the search again and it works. This is pretty annoying.
[HTC EVO 3D] divedr:
No problems with search here, did you clean dalvik and cache from recovery?

---------- Post added at 07:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:25 PM ----------

Scott thanks so much for your work and support for Clean ROM, you are unique and its appreciated. I know you did not author the camera that's cooked into 2.8. The mod has some shortcomings and I know you are aware of them. I believe I read in one of your posts you might be considering reverting to stock in future releases.

For anyone who is interested I have done a controlled study of the stock camera, the modded stock camera which is cooked into Clean ROM and the Amaze port. The extremely long post can be found here or anyone who is interested:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=19503408&postcount=293

Scott instead of stock I think we would all be better off with the amaze port. It only lacks implementation of metering mode selection in real world use. The low light performance is way better than stock or modded stock, of coures JMO but I do base it on quite a bit of detailed comparison under controlled situations.
[HTC EVO 3D] jbermi:
its not really speculation, it was proven on the OG Evo that it never displayed 1x when it was truly 1x, people just thought the 3G was slowed to a halt.

also if you use any program that shuts down radios when screen is off, i notice it will show 1x at first, sometimes before the 3G kicks in. the only areas I notice 1x is places where 3g traditionally sucks, mostly inside buildings. it's not the ROM at all, it is most likely a combination of your radios and the PRL.
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
He has been having the issue for a while now. I am perplexed as to what causes it for him.

As far as the camera... I will put it in ROM updater later today as well as the stock camera. Yeah, I know I keep saying that.. But today.. I will!

I will trust your judgement as you have demonstrated the most knowledge of the cameras. IF no one reports any issues the next revision of CleanROM will have the Amaze camera.

Ice Cream...

So since the news is out that HTC has the evo 3D on the list of devices which will get Ice Cream Sandwich, when do you think we will see an Ice Cream Sandwich Clean ROM?
[HTC EVO 3D] selders59:
That would be absolutly delicious.
[HTC EVO 3D] jhuff83:
I thought I had fixed it and then I get The application Internet (process com.android.browser) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.

+1 for the Amaze camera port. Those pictures with that are incredible.
[HTC EVO 3D] jbermi:
whenever the official OTA comes out, I will say Feb, most likely early march.
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Yes, correct. I dont like to do "ports" of ROMS. I like to work with just the official clean base. When the official RUU gets release you can pretty much rest assured a CleanROM update will follow within 24 hrs... or 1 hour :D
[HTC EVO 3D] jbermi:
ports are never 'clean' in my opinion. something is always borked. and thats why I like CleanROM so much because it is basically a souped up stock ROM. everything works. (most issues are on the user end...just sayin') :p

Not sure if you are open to a kernel switch; but the anthrax series has been getting better and better. He's also working on a new governor that will come out with his next release.
[HTC EVO 3D] IRepTheKing:
Is that kernel an OC'd kernel? I have no problem with the speed of the stock kernel. In most OC'd kernels, I find that they eat the battery significantly. I prefer battery life over an OC'd which will smash my battery.
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Not on this ROM. I would prefer to stay away from kernel changes on Standard Edition. On Dev Edition I may just do that as I have heard lots of good things.
[HTC EVO 3D] greeg32:
Makes sense to stay w/ what you have on Clean Scott. Its pretty much flawless and, of course, clean :)

Yes, its OC'd. I seem to get average at best battery life regardless of ROM, kernels, or apps, so I don't fret too much about OCing :)
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
IM not trying to talk smack... But this is EXACTLY why I am staying with stock kernel on this ROM.

People automatically start talking about bad the battery is / will be with an OC kernel. I did it in version 2.7 and people just complained about it so I had to revert it back in 2.8. Also, if something doesnt go correct with the ROM it will be blamed on the kernel (that would be me blaming it on the kernel, :p) hehehehe....

Hey I like tv out you just need to plug in the micro usb as well as the hdmi :-)
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Damn, I wish I knew that before I took it out, lol I will put it in ROM Updater later on.
[HTC EVO 3D] avalst:
Thanks a lot! I nearly tossed my adapter too till I came across that micro usb tidbit
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
So let me ask you this... Just plug in TV out.. Then Plug in USB cable? And then it pops up?
[HTC EVO 3D] Rob_ec:
I'm guessing the HTC amaze camera has bugs?I tried a panorama shot and it just shows a black screen when.I.push camera or camcorder
[HTC EVO 3D] jbermi:
you two are referring to two different things, Scott is referring to TV out via the headphone plug using an AV cable, where as the other is referring to using an mhl adaptor...

the adaptor will only work if it is getting juice, unless you have a newer TV that supports charging via MHL...
[HTC EVO 3D] ssmercurys:
Does the new update have the files from the .3 base? I know its not a super important change but I feel better knowing im running the most current software release.

[HTC EVO 3D] mikeyxda:
Curious why you would bake in a camera that doesn't work? That Amaze camera has functions that don't work, the camcorder FC's all the time, 3D recording doesn't work properly, etc.. I dug a stock camera out of an old Deck ROM and replaced it. Works fine, so I'm not complaining, but I wonder if it's a good idea to be using a camera that's experimental and has known issues. Why not just use the stock camera which works fine?

Mike
[HTC EVO 3D] Abracastabya:
^ this
[HTC EVO 3D] norskidamus:
It does have problems, but I think the quality of pics out ways a couple glitches with the gimmicks. There is two different amaze cameras, I found the lower res one works well w/out fc's. That being said, I don't know which one Scott put in the Rom.
[HTC EVO 3D] siraloz:
out ways... definitely! your phunny.

thought i'd weigh in.
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Oh, so does anyone know if the headphone jack works?

Your not gonna feel good about this... lol

Works fine for me.

Wow... Do you know what back seat ROM cooking is? Neither did I until I read your post :eek:

But with that being said. You can just download the Stock Camera from ROM Updater. Its in there... I said I would put it in. I did.

^ That

People will always complain no matter what I do. If I go one route they will say I should have taken another :( If go with plan A they will have asked for me to go with plan B. If I choose a modified camera they will ask for stock. If I put in a stock cam they will ask for modified. :confused:

-Scott
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
JUST AN FYI:

The stock Cam is in ROM Updater for anyone who has issues with the Amaze Camera.
[HTC EVO 3D] mikeyxda:
I downloaded the v.11 higher res version out of the mod thread, installed that, and then did a "Clear Data". So far, so good on that one. No FC's yet and the quality looks pretty good (sample attached). For now, I'm just going to try to stay away from any and all of the Amaze functions.

Mike
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
This is the one in the ROM:
[HTC EVO 3D] mikeyxda:
LOL. I'm okay until you pull the car over. :p

Mike
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Ughhhhhh ;)

lol

I like that pic quality of the Amaze and the interface. Thats why I chose it. Didint know it had the issues it had. I went off recommendations and requests of a lot of people.
[HTC EVO 3D] DJB628:
Mike, you could also take the stock camera out of the 2.8 Rom and install it and have the best of both worlds.
[HTC EVO 3D] dmasteRR:
This can be flashed without doing a superwipe correct? Or should I do a fresh wipe?
[HTC EVO 3D] DJB628:
Davlik and Cache and your good to go
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Yeah, I think a Clean Wipe is best. BUt that should suffice.
[HTC EVO 3D] supernoman:
Noob question. Can I use ROM updater to update from 2.7 to 2.9 with hboot 1.5?
[HTC EVO 3D] runsoverfrogs:
I'm getting FC's trying to play music using google music... anybody else having this problem? i've uninstalled, reinstalled, wiped data deleted the google music cache too. still FC's
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
You can but you will need to use the standard processes for hboot 1.5 because the kernel from 2.7 to 2.9 changed. Sorry man but you can blame HTC for this :mad:

I'll take a look but at work now.
[HTC EVO 3D] mikeyxda:
That one isn't stock either, and has its own issues. One of the issues with that one is even when you select MP4 as the save format, it ignores the selection and still saves in 3gp. For now, I'm running the high res Amaze v.11 and it's working now after a "clear data". I'll keep it until it fails me. Unfortunately, that always seems to happen when I'm trying to take a "real" shot. ;)

Mike
[HTC EVO 3D] DJB628:
K, I am sure we can find you the HTC stock one if you need it though
[HTC EVO 3D] mswlogo:
I just installed 2.9 (with full wipe), thank you.

I just tried to use the updater to put a stock camera on.

I must be dense because I can't get it to do much of anything.

If I click Refresh it shows ROM 2.9

If I click Addons/Themes it says it needs to be configured.

If Click Existing is shows Stock Battery and nothing else.

It did exactly the same thing on 2.8

I can add a server but I have no idea where to point it.

Why doesn't it just use the same location as the ROM (which it finds).

I did read the directions here http://www.scottsroms.com/showthread.php?37-How-to-Configure-and-Use-ROM-Updater and they make absolutely no sense (no pun intended)
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
I put it in ROM Updater.

They make no sense to you. Those instructions are spot on. I dont know what else I can say? Maybe someone here can try to simplify them?
[HTC EVO 3D] Nutzy:
Ive tried both this and the senseless versions and I cant get the sound to be loud enough. Ive missed call after call. Used Volume+ (I dont like DSP Manager and Volume+ does the same thing so I uninstalled DSP Manager) and I just cant get it to be nearly as loud as MIUI. Not to compare roms, this is the only thing that keeps me going back to MIUI as I appreciate your work Scott.
[HTC EVO 3D] LfnsR:
I am using Volume+ too and have no issues with volume. Running CleanROM DE 1.3, but should be the same on 2.8 or 2.9. I am using the following settings in speaker/headset/bluetooth settings: speaker modifications checked, eq settings "good quality", volume to +8 and bass to +5. I can hear the ringer across my office. Try those settings and see if it works better.
[HTC EVO 3D] IRepTheKing:
No disrespect..

It must be said: Scott.... this ROM is awesome. I have NO complaints. No disrespect to the other opinions in the room, but there is NO other rom, that's built more stable and solid than CleanRom. The new Amaze cam is incredibly better than stock. (I know this is a matter of opinion, but mine happens to be the same as the builder of the rom).
[HTC EVO 3D] DJB628:
Open Rom Manager, then click on Addons/Themes, right below that you will see another button, mine opens with CRT animation 1.0, click on that, then you will see all the addons and themes there.
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Its all opinion... Im not offedned I actually apreciate the feedback... I just think sometimes we loose scope of what tact is. I am always polite and curtoues (or try really hard to be) and I just ask the same when leaving feedback. Questioning my choice is not really tactful. But to each there own... I am sure no one meant to offended me.

Also... The Stock Cam is ROM Updater so everyone can be happy! :D
[HTC EVO 3D] mswlogo:
Nope, no buttons below. Once I click Addon / Themes

"No Addon/Theme Update Server Configured

If you want to use Addon/Theme Updates, go to Settings and Configure a Update-Server"

It works for "ROMS" and "Existing" but on "Addons / Themes" I get no button.
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Start ROM updater app

Press phone Menu Button and select configuration

Select Addon/Theme Update Settings

Select Manage Addon/Theme Servers

Press phone Menu button

[*]Select Update Featured Addon/Theme Servers and select yes

Now press back button 3 times.

Press phone menu botton and select Check now

Theme list will be populated

Download theme of choice

Your skipping the steps I highlited in red or atlease thats what it "seems" like.

Thanks in advance!!
[HTC EVO 3D] elfeo0:

one quick question, does the eternity theme works with this rom?:D TIA
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
A lot of people ask me that but I am gonna level with you.. No. Prolly wont happen. But on the same note... Now that its been figured out why my ROM wasnt working with themes, and since been fixed, you should be able to flash any mod or theme and it will work with it. IM sure you can find some mods out there that will suit your fancy :p

Now what other tweaks are you talking about? I dont get out of my own threads very often so I dont know what what the rest of the world has for tweaks so give me some ideas....

No Clue... Just nandroid what you have, flash and flash again... If it works let us know, if it doesnt, nandroid back and still let us know :D

I must say that it is possible that yesterday I was suffering from a case of diarrhea (of the mouth) and constipation (of the brain) WRT the Amaze camera. I've been using it more and liking it more. It seems to nail the exposure on flash shots: something the stock camera always had trouble with. The jury is still out but... I'm coming around. It just might be better than stock.

[HTC EVO 3D] egodriver07:
Yeah id like to know how you got both as well.
[HTC EVO 3D] 1107963:
Well if you add tweaks to your Rom you could get this options working...

+ Captivate backlight

+ Center clock

+ Hide Am/Pm from the title bar

+ Hide alarm icon

+ Paginated app drawer

And if possible no gps icon!!! One of the reason I ask is because some roms have an option to enable the screen to turn on when you get a message!!

This are some things I look when I want a new Rom!!!
[HTC EVO 3D] selders59:
I use version 11 here is a link to it in my dropbox.

It is an apk so just go to what ever folder you download to an install it like regular apk. No need to flash or unzip.
[HTC EVO 3D] egodriver07:

[HTC EVO 3D] mswlogo:
Thanks I did finally get it working. I can follow directions making my own ROMs with the Kitchen but these stumped me.

It didn't make sense to me that it had a default server setup for the ROMs but not for the Addons. Not only that it's the same server !!. Then after playing with the instructions above you don't actually enter a server you just end up setting it the "default". Sorry it makes no sense !! I assumed it was broken because it was working on ROMs and not on Addons. And that I must be doing something wrong if I have to do this configuring. Because it would make sense to just have it set to the server by default. I assume there must be some reason why it's setup the way it is.
