Lithud what up bro! How is the kernel in Salvage Zen?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
Deodexed and either the default kernel or a Tiamat. As for which is better between CM7 and SalvageMod, that is subjective. I prefer SalvageMod, hands down, but that's Just Me, D. Flash it and decide for yourself...:)
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
3G is fast and stable on 'my' device with this rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] marcusva79:
I know just did doug. Using de-oxed :) Not really that much bloat like Decks or CM7. Suprised :) Tiamat never worked well on my phone. Tried on all AOSP roms and it was loopy. SavageZen 2.2.0 has always worked wonders on my phone.

4g icon works too. Heck ya. I read back in the thread that theme chooser wasnt an option in here. What are some good themes you are using Doug and Lith? Are you guys going to the 3vo?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
I used to use the Matted Blues theme with SM 1.2, but then I couldn't find one for the later builds, but that is not to say that it didn't exist for them. Other than that, I've been pretty theme-less with the exception of the themed icon packs that I downloaded from the market for Launcher Pro (MIUI & M22-3D).
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
What do you mean? I still use Shootme.
[EVO 4G Android Development] alaman68:
Hope that's better.
[EVO 4G Android Development] curl2k1:
Thats hot, which clock widget is that? Launcher Pro for launcher right?
[EVO 4G Android Development] alaman68:
advanced clock widget, ADWEX, honeycomb icons. Like the SM launcher, but paid for ADWEX so feel like I have to use it.

It's the pretty face of a beast.
[EVO 4G Android Development] eeeeeeeeek:
I will try this, but I'm not encountering foce closes, just restores that are kind of default or stock. It's weird, the system recognizes that app, but loads it as default regardless of the backup. Just odd, it's keeping from really digging in on this rom becuase I don't have the patience to go back and set up my programs again. I will try this to see how it works, thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] marcusva79:
Is anybody getting the 4g going in and out? My connects then disconnects. Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] lithid-cm:
Been connected all day. No issues here, ill keep an eye on it tho. Might be a issue locally?
[EVO 4G Android Development] yamaford:
I like the feature but the shake to take feature on kastersoft screenshot is genius.
[EVO 4G Android Development] snrubs13:
Haven't switched from CM to anything for longer than 5 minutes in 6 months until this rom. This is great, thanks for all your work!
[EVO 4G Android Development] PhantomPhreak53:
I don't know what it is but ever since AOSP went to 2.3.5 I have been having a totally random problem with phone calls. Maybe once or twice a day when I try to make or receive a phone call I can't hear anything but they can hear me. The screen shows the seconds ticking up showing that it is connected. The only way I can fix it is rebooting the phone. I have this same issue with whether wifi is on or off and logcat doesn't show anything pertaining to the phone. I have tried CM, Deck, and yours and I get it on all of them. I thought maybe it was my phone going bad but I ran a 2.3.4 rom for a week and a sense rom for a week and didn't have the issue at all. I am really pleased with 1.4 and would really like to use it.

Update: It just did it to me again. This time I was trying to use the voice search and it kept telling me it wasn't detecting speech. So I just dialed the phone and again they couldn't hear me. I rebooted and it worked fine. I don't always use the voice search but I thought I would throw it out there to see if that info would help.
[EVO 4G Android Development] imheroldman:
Best ROM I've ever had on my phone. Hands down. Been using it heavily all day with no issues. Bluetooth, 3g, texts, calls, data, navigation, web search.

Built in CPU settings, terminal emulator and spare parts, all under settings menu! Unique notification Widgets, status bar brightness control, optional transparent pull down. All at 55 MB? Kidding me?

I'm running vipermod and v6 super charger, though it is super quick without it. Tiamat 4.0.6, 850 MV floor, -100 MV max, 128 min 614 max. No real test on the battery yet.

That's my rant.

[EVO 4G Android Development] marcusva79:
Lithid will there be an increase for wifi. It seems weaker on aosp roms than sense roms.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SantinoInc:
Hey guys. I was wondering how u like this as compared to CM7?

Waswondering if the S2E app/script can be used on this?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
It is a matter of preference, my friend. Personally, I prefer SalvageMod. If you're using CM right now, create a nandroid backup of it, do a full wipe and then flash SalvageMod. I think you will like it, if you keep an open mind.
[EVO 4G Android Development] marcusva79:
Doug are still running salvagemod? Or synergy?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
If you are currently on a 'similar' AOSP rom, boot into recovery, create a nandroid backup of ONLY your data, android.secure and sdext, if applicable. Afterwards, create a full nandroid of your current setup, if you don't have one already. After that, do a clean wipe and then flashed SalvageMod and boot to your homescreen. Now reboot into recovery again and then restore the backup you made of ONLY your data & android.secure. When you boot to your homescreen, your data, apps & screens *should* be present and set up as they were in your previous rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
Today, I'm on SalvageMod, but you know me, I'm back and forth, usually for troubleshooting purposes for someone who is having problems.
[EVO 4G Android Development] marcusva79:
Doug same here. I have been cm7, miui, and synergy. I have tried mikg but not a big fan.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
I hear you. I don't flash as many roms as I used to. After trying almost every rom available, im down to only my two favorites.. SalvageMod and any of the Warm roms. I like OMGB, also.
[EVO 4G Android Development] smartboy36:
Flash gapps with this also right? I'm sick of sense 3.0 roms
[EVO 4G Android Development] lithid-cm:
What are you using to gauge weakness? Just curious.
[EVO 4G Android Development] spankmaster:
I'm +1 with the same problem. 4g will connect and then disconnect again. While its on im also not getting any data. Another note, i dont have a logcat at the moment, but im having problems connecting to my car stereo with bluetooth. Normally if the stereo is on and the BT is on on both, they should just connect without me having to do anything (once they're paired). Not only do i have to go into BT settings and do this manually, most times, it will STILL fail to connect. After toggling BT on and off a bunch of times, (still connecting manually everytime), sometimes the stereo will show its connected, but the phone will still be trying to connect and will not. The phone does not show connected and still plays audio through the device speaker.
[EVO 4G Android Development] marcusva79:
What I mean lithid every aosp rom I have used doesn't get the whole effect of wifi. I am literally a foot away from my wireless router and I have 2 bars. I wonder if it's because N may not be active in my telefone?
[EVO 4G Android Development] FL0OD:
I am getting better 4g with this rom than any I have tried to date. I have used every AOSP rom, I think, for the past year or so. None have worked this well or been this responsive all the way around. I hope this continues to develop. Thanks for the hard work.

I've noticed graphical errors when opening the app drawer off fresh install. Screen starts flickering, well the drawer does.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lithid-cm:
Happens after using intense 3d apps until they are fully closed that will happen. Not really sure why that happens atm
[EVO 4G Android Development] lithid-cm:
I think it might be something else. I'm usually on the other end of the house with 2 or 3 bars.
[EVO 4G Android Development] eniamg02:
Just wanna say this rom is a beast! Definately best salvage version yet.thank you salvage team you guys are awesome.

If anyone is interested I posted a theme,should've had someone test it first but too late now. Here's linkhttp://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1235549 there's link.
[EVO 4G Android Development] starnostar:
No problems here, in fact this may be the first AOSP rom i have tried thus far that I have yet to experience a problem with.
[EVO 4G Android Development] yamaford:
I've never been a believer of a rom "settling in" but mine sure seems to be on fire todY. Everything works great! I stream a radio show in the morning so I leave it plugged in and fruit nimja last night so I can't comment on battery as the ninja is a battery assassin.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
The first time I tried this rom, I was hooked and I've been promoting it ever since. It's simple, clean, fast, and just work. PERIOD! Furthermore, a true sign of something great is when the devs frequent the thread and answer questions as well as offer advice/suggestions. That's having class, my friend.

I'm using SalvageMod v1.4 and for some reason when I enable portable hotspot it does not work, my computer conects but it say no internet conection. Any help? Or how do i make the use tether work?

Thanks.

I am actually responding to this using the tether on usb. I turned on tether, pluged my cable to my phone, then plugged it into the laptop. then it connected. Not sure how else to put it. It works.

Just had my camera keep crashing out on me. I had the old 1.4 installed and everything was working fine. I wiped cache and dalvik and flashed the new 1.4 and now the camera fc's.

Logcat is the link above
[EVO 4G Android Development] Sry0fcr:
Just wondering given the Evo's EOL status, how long are you guys planning on developing for this device?

And BTW kudos for putting together a solid ROM, I played with 1.2.1 for a couple of days a while back but gave up and went back to CM7/Evo Deck's after having some lag/stability issues that now I'm positive were caused by the Savaged Zen kernel. After giving this a go, I think I'm going to stay a while.

BTW, for everyone else if you're having battery life issues, set WIFI sleep mode to never. I was wondering why my battery was dying so quickly yesterday and that ended up being the culprit. Any way you guys could make this a default setting in a future release?
[EVO 4G Android Development] marcusva79:
Lithid you can't change the battery on the status bar correct? If you can't no problem. Got used to cm7 changing it to percent status.
[EVO 4G Android Development] locoboi187:
I'm in limbo if i should leave MikG
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
Alright, I flashed the SM v1.4-odex-signed.zip as well as the SM Gapps-odex-signed.zip twice after a complete wipe (everything in amonRA v2.3's wipe menu except the SD card) and twice I kept getting reoccurring FCs while trying to get to the homescreen. I then reflashed the rom without immediately flashing the Gapps zip and then rebooted. All went well. I then rebooted into recovery, wiped dalvik & cache and then flashed the Gapps odex zip and then rebooted. The lockscreen appeared, but as soon as I unlocked the device, I immediately got repeated FCs. I don't know if the odex version of the Gapps zip is corrupted or not. I'll re-wipe everything and flash the deodexed versions and see what happens. In no way, shape or form am I worried about not getting a working version of this rom. I am a huge fan of Salvage-Mod as well as a fan of lithid, echoside & Barnacles so if there are any noobs out there who may be reading this, do not fret. This is a temporary thing..hahaha. I'll report back once I download & flash the odexed versions.

UPDATE: After flashing the deodexed versions of the rom & Gapps.zip, I am up & running like I knew I would be..hahaha..Now it's time to tweak the system and enjoy the new rom. I'm 48 years old, but I'm like a kid in a candy store...;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
Dude, do a nandroid backup of MikG, do a full wipe and flash this baby...hahaha...You didn't root your device just to be able to say that you're rooted did you? C'mon, take the plunge...:D
[EVO 4G Android Development] Psichi:
same here. At first I thought it was because I was using the 1.3 gapps, since I started flashing before I saw an answer on my earlier question... Hopefully the odex version will get tweaked as I don't use themes much andnwould rather have the boost in performance.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
I hear you, my friend and I'm certain whatever the issue is with the odexed Gapps zip, it'll be taken care of. These guys do a heck of a job with this rom...;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Admiral2145:
Almost perfect rom....to many apps and games, to not have an a2sd rom.

You are familiar with the built in apps to sd correct? Built into gingerbread?
[EVO 4G Android Development] spider2346:
Judging by what lithid has done with the sense kernel, I can't imagine this ROM not being great... Gonna take her out for a dance later and see how she moves... :rolleyes:
[EVO 4G Android Development] Psichi:
Yeah, I was looking through the 1.3 thread and I know they are quick on fixing issues.

I am stupid though.. I wasn't expecting the "Wipe ALL user data/factory reset" to touch the SDext partition, so I didn't include that in my nandroid. When I had to roll back, I didn't have market or anything... So I am d/ling the deodexed version instead!

My poor wife, she is sitting next to me rolling her eyes because I "broke my phone" again.

Hey Barn, I've noticed that either kernel I use (Tiamat 3.3.7 / SZ 2.2.1 both with SBC), the ROM doesn't want to let go at holding the processor at 100-98%. I tried a wipe of both caches and reinstalls, with no dice. Is there anyway you can post the kernel that came with this new ROM?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
I know what you mean. My wife can't stand when I start messing around with my EVO. To her, I pay far too much attention to it than to her and I do, on occasion, but heck, the EVO gives me the least amount of stress....:)

[EVO 4G Android Development] sag7392:
Hey, just out of curiosity, can you give me some info about this kernel and why the switch from Tiamat?
[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:
I don't believe tiamat was actually included in the last one and was some confusion in the changelog. We have included an updated kernel from CM7 source, as we feel it to be a stable kernel for all devices. As always, other kernel options are available to those who want them

I feel like Launcher Pro Plus and GO weather fully replace the HTC widgets. Especially Go Weather, my god I love the way that thing looks. All others (fancy widget, beautiful widget) are garbage by comparison. Go Weather is truly on par or better than the HTC stock widgets, which are amongst the best.

But I agree... letting go of those widgets was a VERY tough decision, haha. Took me months to get over it.

Sorry, I need to explore more before I start asking dumb questions. One more question though, where can I get a copy of the gingerbread man pic and what font is that on the SM website? I want to make my own user bar loving the rom, best initial experience I have had in a long time on any android phone.
[EVO 4G Android Development] HeisRisen:
Colorize widgets is a nice option opposed to the LPP widgets. LPP got too buggy for me when I was on my epic, I made the switch to ADWex then and haven't looked back at any other launcher.

As you can see in my info...this would be my first post. Ever.. Came from a Vibrant so everything seems new to me.

I'm loving the rom. Great job to the devs! Although, I'm having difficulties with the GPS. It's wonky... Inaccurate to 1000m, although the lock on is about 5 blocks from where I live. I wiped, cache wipe, and dalvik wipe. I read somewhere that I had to go back to original sense rom and do something with the GPS, but I searched again, but can't find it. Anything remotely close to this, had unclear directions.

Another question...sorry if it was already in another thread, but is it possible to flash the camera that was part of the stock sense rom? I like the live autofocus feature...
[EVO 4G Android Development] scottspa74:
For gps, goto sense rom, and in dialer type ##gpsclrx# (if i remember correctly). Then you have to enter your msl (download msl reader from market, or call sprint and ask for it).

Then nand restore to aosp. May also wanna wanna download gps status & tools from market (seems to help calibrate gps), run it once.

Should fix gps woes. Has for me on aosp roms (I'm not currently on lithids rom)

Also, welcome to xda. ;)

Edit: dont have camera solution. But, google Sony panorama cam apk. Should find it. If not, PM me.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lviseth:
Thanks for the warm welcome and a speedy reply. :]

Another question...

Could it be any sense rom? Or does it have to be stock? I have a nandroid backup of aosp and a nandroid backup of jiminy sense 2.2. Can I nandroid to my sense rom, do the gpsclr, then nandroid back to aosp? Or would I have to do the three wipes, before restoring the aosp backup?
[EVO 4G Android Development] lviseth:
Okay so I just did that. And it works. GPS is at 4-10m accuracy woot! I love you man! :D

It's really quite odd, I don't see why it would be forcing default type setups from proper backups. Any other ideas would be great. It's really whats keeping me from really using this rom.
