What I do on my phone is not necessarily SteelROM out of the box. I delete 20+ APKs for crapware I don't use.

You can add the ram optimization script yourself. SteelROM supports init.d

My MOD only lowers the minimum CPU clock speed. No special script, I modified HTC's stock script. Stock minimum freq was 384, I cut that in half. SO in theory, when not using the phone the cpu can slow down a little more and maybe save some juice.

Unfortunately I had to do the HTC DEV unlock and root method. I am currently running 2.01 and loving every bit of it. Great job on this rom Steel.

I am using 1.5 Hboot and was wondering if I need to flash some new radios? Or did I get the new radios from the OTA update? If I am not mistaken, your roms don't include new radio updates correct?
[HTC EVO 3D] SteelH:
No radios. If you took the OTA to get hboot 1.5, u got the newest radio.
[HTC EVO 3D] bathanr:
Thanks! Downloading 2.1 now
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
Anything particular you do besides apk removals to ur phone?

love the new look btw! top notch stuff as usual!

btw what all did you exactly flash to update to the latest OTA? did you just do the radio/pri or did you do some of the others like the one supposedly to fix the black screen issue and such?
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
,.........oops
[HTC EVO 3D] dteze88:
Beautiful ROM as always Steel, running like a champ. Thank you for the hard work, it is much appreciated. :)
[HTC EVO 3D] chillenandy321:
Steel could make CRT Anims Off for 2.1?
[HTC EVO 3D] SteelH:
Read signature.

I never flash OTAs.
[HTC EVO 3D] phatmalu:
Hi, When I installed Viper Rom many times, my sms messages and contacts automatically got loaded back in after a fresh install. When I install Steel's Roms, it doesnt do that. Was this something that was specially coded on Viper Rom, and if so, can it be added to Steel Rom's too?
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
Dude Steel I know you never flash OTA's, and i know you had latest radios.(not blind) lol

just didn't know if you had actually flashed the RPM, SPCUSTOM, or TZ stuff at all either form xHausx's thread.

Lastly, did you add the latest two program updates? SPCSCorp4G, and HtcAddProgramWidget?
[HTC EVO 3D] fczeuner:
Steel, I see from the Shogun thread, you developed a way to get rid of the application draw paging. I downloaded the zip flash from the Shogun thread, is that safe to try on 2.1. Also, is the Honeycomb battery mod I used on 2.02 safe. I don't want to break the Zeus mods. Thanks again. Great work

Edit: nevermind I tried the non pageinated application draw and it works good.

[HTC EVO 3D] italy7:
still on 2.02 til later tonight when i may be able to flash 2.1 - my max browser windows is 4, stock browser...can you guys test what your # is plz. I did a full wipe dont know what the issue is
[HTC EVO 3D] SteelH:
Oh, naw I didn't flash any of that other crap. If I don't know what it is I ain't flashing it.

FROM OP "-Updated with 8/26 HTC OTA application updates" <- that would be those 2 apks. Major update OTA eh?

Unsure of the battery mod. Nandroid first and see what happens.
[HTC EVO 3D] fernando sor:
Battery mod is framework- res

As long as its 2.3.4 you can flash.

It will have no effect on systemui Zeus mod
[HTC EVO 3D] xyojimbox:
Has anyone tried that dual core thing on here and if so results...

[HTC EVO 3D] doctor ladd:
Yes, Quads drop and UI is buggy.

Hopefully it becomes more useful with future releases
[HTC EVO 3D] Abracastabya:
Works effing great
[HTC EVO 3D] smokin1337:
I made PCM dual core and i use this rom. It's awesome imo, my battery is at 27% after 18 hrs. And the phones is running smooooth. I do like this rom better than the others i have used. No bs in it which i like, cause i like to add my own bs.
[HTC EVO 3D] GadgetMonger:
Not sure what the point of this is? From what system panel says my second core isn't active unless it's needed anyway. Why disable it? If you're second core is being used while your phone isn't in use seems like you may have other issues you need to look at. :confused: No?
[HTC EVO 3D] smokin1337:
The mod makes the second core active all the time while your phone is awake. While its sleeping the second core gets turned off. It doesn't disable the second core.
[HTC EVO 3D] mikeyxda:
Tried it and ended up removing it. Actually lost 20-30% speed in benchmarks. Try it, but be sure to run benchmarks before and after.
[HTC EVO 3D] guyver2077:
Finally got to try a custom lock ring..super cool but reverted the home clock to default white background
[HTC EVO 3D] smokin1337:
I only lost anything in linpack, i think its the dual cores messing it up. My test in quadrant doubled. But i guess everyone gets different results.
[HTC EVO 3D] GadgetMonger:
Ok. Seems like I misunderstood the way it works. That being said, the way you explain it doesn't make sense to me either. I can see how having both cores running would enhance your phones speed, but how would it improve batt life? Seems like that would straight destroy your battery. As for turning off the second core while the phone is sleeping, that happens anyway. Right?
[HTC EVO 3D] macramentonate:
beats audio (issue?)

I enabled beats audio in the music app with the dre beats connected and didn't hear a difference in the audio. Also the other equalizer options are not available. Any way to get a flashable zip of the old app or like a downloadable apk? Any word on that reflow thing a few pages back?:cool:

Nice ROM btw. Thanks Steel beautiful work.
[HTC EVO 3D] rmaxson29:
Thank Steel the roms are awesome
[HTC EVO 3D] theimpaler747:
Great rom. No LED flash on messages. That's my only complaint.
[HTC EVO 3D] rleonard55:
Steel, I’ve been using your rom from 2.0 to 2.1 and each step along the way. Each time everything has went off without a hitch. This time when trying to flash 2.1, I cannot seem to make this work.

If I try to flash over 2.02 it seems like it flashes ok but when I reboot the phone it stays on the flashing android boot animation and never(15min) moves beyond that point. It does seem to be doing something though since after a while the screen brightness shifts to 100% and then soon after the screen shuts off (with CRT animations), it can we woken up but nothing changes.

If I do a full wipe, again all seems well during flashing. After it’s done I reboot , the phone actually ‘comes up’ to the screen where it’s almost up (right before the lock ring actually show up normally). I see the background of the lock screen but the lock ring never comes up. I have the clock and all icons in the status bar but cannot swipe it down at all.(Pic attached) The phone can receive a phone call at this point but the dialer never comes up to allow answering although the green phone icon show in the notification bar.

I have tried re-downloading the rom again from both links. I’ve tried flashing my stock rooted nandroid backup and attempting 2.1 again from there…Each with identical results is there something else I should be trying or something stupid I am missing? Thanks for any thoughts you might have.
[HTC EVO 3D] SteelH:
You don't have them turned on in settings then.

[HTC EVO 3D] VoXPCS:
Well I guess when you're on the losing end, LIKE APPLE, you have to steal others ideas. Just like they did. Then Bill Gates ( to compete with Steve Jobs) stole his idea from some poor developer that didn't realize what he had.

Now, the playing field is level... NO.

There are hundreds of witnesses, people were there round the clock with the man who did the work. while he slept, they were still there waiting for him wake up. I personally watched commit after commit go up on repo. He worked tirelessly.

Only to have some wannabe snot nosed , no talent, kid wander in and type "tough" words in his OP to make people think his ROM "haz gud stuffz!"

Look at the views, look at the downloads people. You all know which ROM is the real deal. If you don't then please, download this POS ROM from this ******, you don't deserve to run anything more.

GTFO KANGaroo!

Weird, but I am having the same exact problem. I was trying to flash 2.1 from 2.01.. I even tried to go back to 2.01 thinking I had a bad download, but it is stuck on the android splash screen.

Ya I seen this and am very familiar with all the dev teams ROM devevelopment colabiration and know that everyone works together with everyone. That's the point of xda forum so.... Very confused. Would love to hear more details sounds juicy.:D
[HTC EVO 3D] sparhawk6:
When I boot up on this ROM, 4G is turned on by default, even if I had it shut off when I turned the phone off. How do I stop that?
[HTC EVO 3D] fernando sor:
Ihtfp69 wrote the source code. I've never seen so much fighting over a port.

This port tho is a tad more accurate tho and believe me I've looked at a lot of systemui code from zeus
[HTC EVO 3D] sparhawk6:
How can I get the old taskbar icons back (GPS, 3G, bars, battery). I prefer the white, easy-to-see design over the designs that come with this ROM.
[HTC EVO 3D] TrevE:
heres the deal, ziggy ported that code from ITHFP69 and spent hours getting it right. We hard coded strings and everything in different ways for the evo3d because Ziggy does not have the phone so it was easier. the changes in the version here are 99.999% the same from

https://code.google.com/p/synergy-evo3d/source/detail?r=432

The chances of 2 devs porting the sysui exactly how ziggy did this are 0. Why they claim they did work themselves without touching synergy, and the statement in post 1 is just insulting. I dont know whats up SteelH but weve exchanged pm's a few times- i thought things were cool?

We can say exactly how it was ported from the original source, id love to see them say the same. Ive PM'ed a mod, instead of starting a flame war id like to get an open discussion going off this form to get this cleared up.
[HTC EVO 3D] fernando sor:
When was 4g added back in?
[HTC EVO 3D] TrevE:
looks like virus did that here -

https://code.google.com/p/synergy-evo3d/source/detail?r=421

like i said, not the place in the form. let us figure it out, im not derailing a thread.
[HTC EVO 3D] nuvens:
Amen fernando, I don't know what all the sh*t is about, we know skyraider ROM by ihtfp69 has the og Zeus mod and synergy uses a port that BTW is not 100% yet, some people here on xda seem to think ziggy and virus created the mod, confused??? This ROM is awesome. just like decks have the Zeus mod ported nicely.
[HTC EVO 3D] fernando sor:
What Im confused about is that with kushdecks systemui four signal bars and Sprint green WiFi icons are active. I haven't closely examined it but i know that usually means sensation systemui. Most devs won't back track to four bars instead of six.
[HTC EVO 3D] TrevE:
the sysui they originally used was the exact copy of RLS1, we had signal issues in there with 6 bars but only 4 used once again because ziggy does not have a evo3d. I got the 6 bar injected (properly) and 1x/3g/4g in from original sysui in 432 44 hours ago.

You do good stuff bro, so do all of dev's who bust there ass to make good stuff. Much props and no disrespect. It is a little comical to see the geek war in full swing, but I know its serious stuff and a lot of hard work to some, so I understand. I hope all who are offended by the "kang" word being thrown around can find peace, love, and happiness. I also wish for some bad ass developing to continue.

[HTC EVO 3D] freeza:
To be honest, all it really took is a direct copy and paste of the SystemUI from the SkyRaider ROM, with the framework integrity check removed to get the Zeus Mods working....in its most basic form.

I have exchanged a few pms with Ihtfp69 on the teambamf forums about this mod. Yeah Synergy seems to beat everyone to the punch with all the COOL MODZ, but in reality, half the **** doesn't even work and to beat everyone to the punch and want thanks and credit when it isn't very hard to do and then get butt hurt over it is not cool. Virtually every single mod, enhancement, or feature that are put into our ROMs came from someone else anyway. I'm not saying we ported it from scratch, but it is nothing that file comparison software couldn't help us achieve. As long as people get their thanks and credit in the OP, I don't see what the big deal is. I had no idea Ziggy put work into this mod, so I will definitely not hesitate to give him thanks, as it seems like he is the only one who hasn't got some ego trip off of it.

THANK YOU ZIGGY for your kernels, porting this mod, and your contribution to the Android community.
[HTC EVO 3D] kittykat858:
I see the hours Ziggy, Trevor and Virus put into their work. I see true developers at work every time I watch them.

It saddens me to see their hard work stolen from them without them getting credit for it, and going as far as others taking credit for it. Everyone uses everyone elses work, thats a given, thats what open source is,. however open source is also about giving credit where credit is due. I compared the filess TrevE talked about myself, and found SystemUI from RLS1 as a binary file to be a 100% binary match for the one used in this rom before. I compared the 2nd one TrevE talked about and found the apk binary files not to be a match, but when both apk files were decompiled, i found the smali code to be about a 99.9% match. It was only a few lines different. Ive been a C developer for 5 years, and a QC engineer for 1 1/2 (QCing C source code) for a governmental agency. Ive seen source code from two developers attempting to complete the same task. Both developers methods were correct and worked, but the source code from one developer wasn't even close to matching the others. The output was the same..It comes down to this: No way can two developers source code be so close unless one copied another. That is a FACT.

I, myself, have discussed things in a public chat room, walking people thru something, helping someone do something that the posts here on XDA said were impossible. I found a way to do it in public forum-- two hours later, my hard work and research was posted here on XDA and someone else took credit for it. Most if not all of the wording was taken from my chat with the user needing help - even the spelling error... come on... this person was called out, and since edited his posts, but still takes credit.

Again, I know everyone uses everyone else's stuff Even people who build their own APKs and LIBs from raw source are getting that source from google, thats open source but its only fair to give credit where credit is due and thats stopped happening. I use other peoples APKs and PNG files, but I ask first, and then give credit to said individual when I post.
[HTC EVO 3D] :
I totally agree, Synergy is quick to the punch, however not enough testing is done and I have had numerous issues with the nightlies. I've had very little issues with other ROMS. Honestly most of my headaches have come from the nightlies.
[HTC EVO 3D] McLabia:
One of the biggest reasons Ziggy stopped posting his Kernels for people to use. They would jack his work and call it their own. Zero respect and thats what this entire issue boils down to.
[HTC EVO 3D] freeza:
Being first to do stuff just so other people can't without having to thank you is pretty wack, especially when not enough testing has gone into it to even label it a proper port.

I'm not even going to include this mod in my ROM now just because of the controversy that went into it. Honestly, Ihtfp69 gave me permission to use only the parts of Zeus Mod that he posted on his own site located here, which isn't hard to do and has already been done so it's all gravy anyway :)
[HTC EVO 3D] rezn:
Headaches should come from their nightlies. They beta test with the users who willingly download their kanged builds(LOL). I think its cool that Synergy does this. I have seen other devs make you donate to be a beta tester. Other ROM developers do not release in this manner for their own reasons and beliefs.
[HTC EVO 3D] freeza:
I, for one, believe that it is a punch to the face of the community to accept or even expect donations for Sense ROMs just to get beta tester spot. HTC does all the work anyway, and most of the people who want donations for their time would do it regardless.
[HTC EVO 3D] rezn:
Totally agree, but you have been around for a while and I am sure you have seen this. I think any dev who actively engages their users to help and support them while constantly trying to push their own knowledge and experience is part of what makes this a great community. All the users who do not contribute except to leech off devs, make demands, and whine and complain kill me.
[HTC EVO 3D] freeza:
I agree with you as well, which is why we at Team Xposed believe that "sharing is caring" and that mods and hacks should be explained to everyone with no thanks, credit, or donations expected except for the original creator of said mod/hack. True that time and energy goes into porting, modding, or hacking, but if you do it for the love of customization and open source, rather than for being recognized and getting famous on the internet, then you'll do it regardless if people thank you, credit you, or give you money--which is why you will never see me putting a donation link up. The stuff I do is primarily for myself, but if others can benefit from it then I will most definitely share it.
[HTC EVO 3D] bathanr:
Unfortunately I was unable to get 2.1 to work correctly using HTC Dev with 1.5 Hboot. It loads the wallpaper with the title bar, but no lock ring and no ability to swipe or anything. I wiped data back to factory and everything. I went back to 2.01 which is still solid.
[HTC EVO 3D] xHausx:
So.. what are these Zeus mods again?
[HTC EVO 3D] TrevE:
sharing is caring is wonderful. thats why we put it in svn, we want people to look stuff over, learn how stuff works for yourself, help us grow - everything.

But this is not sharing, its insulting:

-Added correctly ported Zeus mods for e3d. Kang this suckas! -Devs Responsible (deck, freeza, and SteelH) and Ihtfp69 for the initial code.

If you ported it from ithfp69 yourself thats one thing as we did, but you didnt. there is hundreds of changes from his to ours, and like 5 from ours to this. How did you end up porting it exactly the same without looking at synergy? Why the need to lie and make it appear as if the work was done "correctly" porting by "xposed" when when you took our port and changed a line?

Sent from the Honeycomb hideout
[HTC EVO 3D] freeza:
I can't speak for deck or steel, but I haven't posted up my SystemUI. I can say with complete honesty that I didn't download the Synergy ROM but I do have the SkyRaider ROM and was sent a file that more than likely WAS from Synergy. Again, I'm not claiming to have ported it over 100% nor am I taking anything away from Synergy's efforts. If I even decide to post my SystemUI up, feel free to PM, post, or hit me up if you feel that I have kanged Synergy code without proper recognition. I have no problem giving it where it's due. I'm simply speaking about the ego trips that people seem to be on lately. I mean, I include my thanks in the OP and where ever else it needs to apply, and if that's what most people do, I don't see why that's not enough.

I am by no means a copy/paste/take credit for a mod person. Anything I do, I like to know exactly how it was done and spend quite a bit of time understanding rather than doing a simple copy and paste job. I'm just saying that the mod included in the SkyRaider ROM can just as easily be flashed to the EVO 3D with very minimal effort. (It's what I tried to do before even getting together with deck and steel on it.)
