And if you read any of those threads, you'll notice that usually on the 3rd or 4th post, other people did the exact same thing as me and realized that those topics had nothing to do with the Evo 4G and said so. Take your own advice, if you don't like it, go somewhere else. This is the Evo 4G General forum, meaning stuff in general for the Evo 4G. There is a forum for completely general topics. Use that if you have a general thread to post.

Yeah, keep calling me names and saying I have nothing better to do. It completely helps with your argument that you aren't insecure.

*sigh* The OP is not trolling or anything, so let us move past this and go on with life. The EVO General section is filled with random things, as are other phones' forums.

I see it as this: Q&A is for EVO-specific questions, Accessories is for EVO accessories, Development for EVO development, and Themes for EVO mods and themes. General is just a nice place to hang out with other EVO owners and ask general questions.

There are a plethora of topics that could easily be moved to other sections, but there isn't a real drive to. I don't see a point in requesting a move to another section unless somebody posts in the wrong phone forum (like EVO 3D question in the EVO 4G section) accidentally or in the wrong topic (like a question in development). And only report if a thread has fallen to the trolls or if someone is ridiculously offensive.

Come on. No harm no foul. Let's get back on topic and help the OP out. His posting here wasn't malevolent or anything.

Hello,

sorry for my English, I am German !

I tried to downgrade my Desire Z (Vodafone Branding)

what I have to do?

Thanks :)

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aresmar:
Use the goldcard windows program to only patch the "image you get from the website" to SD card.

Reverse your CID yourself like this:

First learn your SDcards CID:

open an adb command line and type:

adb shell cat /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc2/mmc2:*/cid

it will give your sdcards non-reversed "cid"

than reverse that CID like this:

Original:

AB CD EF GH IJ

YOUR REVERSED CID:

IJ GH EF CD AB

and use that reversed CID you made to submit to the website to get the image file to your email.

Than patch that image file with a goldcard helper program.

I did this and it worked!

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
I see you posted in the CWM thread, did you boot the recoveryPLAY.img? if so you dont have CWM installed, thats a temp image, your ment to boot from fastboot every time you want to use recovery. You need to flash a kernel with recovery embedded, if your using a r800i with the latest firmware, try doomlords kernel.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZeCoder:
Thank you very much.

I thought that it is permanent.

Thanks again. :)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
What is it, unlike other android device, on the play recovery is held on /boot partition. This is the same partition as the kernel. So if you was to just flash a recovery, this would overwrite /boot partiton, and because there would be no kernel, the device wouldnt boot. So kernel and recovery have to be combined into one boot.img.

That recoveryPLAY.img, NEVER FLASH IT, alway boot it. If you flash it, it will corrupt your /boot partition. :)

HDMwIn now supports HDMI out on gingersense. Congrats to TeamWin for this fine release. I have been waiting for HDMI out support for a while.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=17068475&postcount=1850

This new kernel is a complete rewrite of the app. The functionality is now fully automatic and no longer requires a separate app. The team has said they do plan on releasing an App to allow those who wish to tinker with settings to do so, but otherwise, a seperate app is unneeded. Gone are the daemon downloader loops.

More indepth information is available here:

Video Preview available here:

Warning!!

The kernel has been released on Kernel Manager. This is a free app available on Android Market. Before installing this kernel, please nandroid your phone. This is an alpha kernel. There may be instabilities and other issues. Be aware that installing this kernel will override any other custom/stock kernel you may have installed. You will lose the abilities of those kernels (such as overclocking, HAVs, etc.). This requires root. Do NOT use this kernel with an ASOP rom (MIUI, CM7, etc.). An ASOP version is coming according to the devs.

How to install:

Apparently, kernel manager has issues with the HDMwIn kernel, so please flash from recovery manually instead.

- Run Kernel Manager and approve the superuser request.

- Press menu and select 'Advanced Options'. Ensure 'Flash automatically' isn't checked.

- Select Load Kernel List.

- Scroll to the bottom of the list.

- Select PoonSense 2.3.3.

- Press Download + Flash Kernel.

- Using a file manager, navigate to root of SD card. sdcard/kernel-manager/agrabren contains a .zip file callled "2.3.3-1-793-HDMwIn-Sense233-Alpha-signed.zip". That file is also attached to this thread.

- Move that .zip file to the root of your SD

- Reboot into recovery

- Wipe cache and dalvik cache.

- Flash the .zip file.

- Reboot

- Enjoy HDMwIn.

Also, agrabren has updated his kernel due users having issues with blank screens. If you guys are having issues, please use his newest kernel: build 793. That version is now available on Kernel Manager and attached to this thread.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=17074174&postcount=1864

Old method of install. Causes Wifi errors and other bugs, use alternative method above.

[B]How to install:[/B]
- Install Kernel Manager from Market
- Run Kernel Manager and approve the superuser request.
- Press menu and select 'Advanced Options'. Ensure 'Clear Cache' and 'Clear Dalvik Cache' are checked.
- Select Load Kernel List.
- Scroll to the bottom of the list.
- Select PoonSense 2.3.3.
- Press Download+ Flash Kernel.
- After the reboot, enjoy HDMI mirroring. There is no app to start or configure. It just works now. Plug in an HDMI cable and you are good to go.

Hi Guys,

I have a simple question, Is this kernel compatible with the Stock Ver on Gingerbread ?

Also is this kernel support Wireless N ?

Thanks
[EVO 4G General] Khilbron:
Since I didn't hear an answer on this, I downloaded the kernel from Kernel Manager (poonsense 2.3.3) made a backup of Synergy RC2+Godmode. Flash was sucessful, ROM booted with no problems. When I get home in 4 hours I will hook up my HDMI cable and test functionality.
[EVO 4G General] mpsantiago:
Is anybody having WIFI problems after flashing? I flashed last night, this morning I get "Error" under Settings -> Wireless & Networks -> WiFi (the word Error is right below the word Wi-Fi; attempting to click the checkbox does nothing. It stays unchecked).

Might be a coincidence, as I was also updating my GPS driver last night as well.
[EVO 4G General] Khilbron:
I can confirm this I didn't think to test my WiFi after flashing. I receive the error message as well.
[EVO 4G General] ABBUB:
This will happen if you flash the new kernel through kernel manager. All you have to do is flash the kernel manually and everything *should* work fine.

Go into recovery, clear cache and delvik. Then go to flash file from sd, scroll to the folder called kernel manager, then open the agrabren folder and there will be the flashable zip. Note, this only works if you have already downloaded the file through kernel manager. Otherwise you will have to find the zip file in the dev area. I will include a link soon to the zip.

Find the link here... Second post down (I think)...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=987592&page=188

P.S. Always Nandroid Backup prior to any flashing... I am no pro, this is simply the method that worked for me.

I hope this helps, it worked for me the exact same way on all 3 of my EVO's.

Thanks to agrabren and all who contributed, this is one amazing piece of work!! Everything works flawless!
[EVO 4G General] Khilbron:
I didnt use Kernel Manager to flash it, I downloaded the kernel, booted to Ra Recovery, backed up my current ROM, then wiped Cache 3x, and Dalvik 3x, then i manually flashed the zip via install zip from SD Card, and my WiFi still errors out. So what you said is irrelevant to the issue. I appreciate your attempt to try and fix it, but the fix is not a fix.
[EVO 4G General] MultiDev:
Try using the newest kernel version attached to this thread. Agrabren fixed some issues and updated the kernel to a new version. Make sure to flash manually and wipe cache and dalvik cache.

I've updated the instructions and attached the newest kernel version to this thread.
[EVO 4G General] Khilbron:
I downloaded and flashed the kernel at 2:05pm today, the Kernel I flashed was

2.3.3-1-793-HDMwIn-Sense233-Alpha-signed.zip

Which after looking is the kernel you have attached to the OP. So that won't do it. I do believe this kernel is incompatible with Synergy+Godmode. But for the Dev's sake here is my logcat.

Thanks so much for this you guys! TEAM WIN ROCKS! Worked absolutely flawlessly, I did see you mentioned that we could make adjustments through the UI, forgive me if this has an obvious answer, but how?? Like where in the UI? Or what has to be done to be able to make adjustments; a certain rom or something?

I did have one problem and I know you're working out the kinks so I thought I would mention it. After using it all last night the phone worked fine, however when I did a restart I got stuck at the splash screen. I had to use a backup to get the phone working again, sorry but I dont know how to send a logcat or anything.

Here's some info:

Im on hardware 0004

Using Sinister Rom RLV7, havent had much problems with this rom otherwise

I dont mind not being able to restart for the meantime, but I am worried if my phone dies while Im out and about if I will get stuck at the splash again. It's like the modern SOD lol

And really about the adjustments, I was trying to stream in from MLB At Bat 2011, its a grainy app when trying to watch a live game, but looks a lot better if I can adjust the overlay a bit. Any help from anyone would be greatly appreciated, even if the answer is just wait for a newer kernel, was just looking to help iron out a bug and get my game on without screwing up my phone, and yes I am a noob................ :D

More over I thank you for making this all possible and in no way I wanna seem ungrateful.... And try not to be too harsh on me guys, just started flashing and stuff like two weeks ago, and of course I couldnt find another thread about this cuz this is such a new kernel.

Thanks again homies

Edit: confirm stuck on splash after restart or powerdown. Works fine till then.
[EVO 4G General] MultiDev:
From the first post:

The UI app has not been released, so for now, you will have to accept the default settings. I assume overlay control will be included in the UI as it was included in the old app.
