No in his video hes replacing files and then reflashing the whole rom.. bleh.. but he does all 3 and hot fix 1 and 2 are the exact same files..
[EVO 4G Android Development] yznhmr:
yes i see that..

after deleting the 2 files

so you are copying the hot fix files in to the rom (unzipped) like for like..

the right side is the unzipped rom 2.09

as he copy and pasted, its adding the files from the left into the existing folder on the right
[EVO 4G Android Development] ReapersDeath:
Yes but in hotfix 1 and 2, the files are the same and it wants to overwrite eachother which cancel out the oposing hotfix. All have the meta inf in it and all have i think the same files.. which do we keep?

or hell im giving up.. this is to confusing
[EVO 4G Android Development] Tazmandeux:
Swagster - Does it make sense to build the hotfixes into an incremental build and re-release the entire build?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ReapersDeath:
he isnt because the download size is around 300mb and it would be easier for people to download about 5mb worth to fix the issues
[EVO 4G Android Development] swagstr:
They should definitely be different. Lol.

On that note, you should NOT unzip either file.

I need a few brave souls who can figure out the hot fixes to keep trying them and testing them. I want to find as many bugs as possible before uploading 600MB again ;)

Does anyone have a video of the evolvedandroid boot animation? I'm sure I probably saw it before, but I don't remember.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tommytomatoe:
Good job on this swagstr!

A couple notes:

1. First time I tried aroma installer. It is pretty nice but I feel like it is almost too many options. It might just be me. I have always enjoyed simpler.

2. ROM is super smooth. Good job on that.

3. You have a png that is mismatched. It is the usb-to-pc notification icon. Screen shot below. (hint: apk is PCSCII.apk)

4. I noticed you left out the clock options in tweaks completely due to the 24-hour force close issue. I fixed it just now :-) Screen shot below

But for sure man. You did a good job. Keep swaggin'
[EVO 4G Android Development] yznhmr:
how can you copy the files from the hot fix zip to the rom folders with out unzipping them?

i think i get it, but the above statement didnt make sense to me..

flashing updated rom now (after nandroid)
[EVO 4G Android Development] mike208:
If I am planning to use go launcher, is there any reason to choose X over N?
[EVO 4G Android Development] PyreKing:
To install hot fixes use 7zip open the rom in one screen. Then open hot fix1 in another screen.don't right click to open,instead click on the 7zip icon in all programs.once you have the rom in one screen and hot fix1 in the other erase the files from rom zip that you see in hotfix1,transfer new files to rom. Then when you open the other fixes just copy and paste contents to you rom folder no need to erase anything else,after transfer is complete close 7zip,transfer rom to SD then reflash that's it.

Edit... do not remove Meta info it will merge with other Meta info.
[EVO 4G Android Development] yznhmr:
yea.. thats what i said..just more clear..lol..

I am flashing now, and it listed all three fixes in the change log on during the flash..

and I assume we have to reflash DTa2sd before rebooting after the flash.

---------- Post added at 07:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:10 PM ----------

Pyre.. if i flash this do i need to clear both caches?

Pyre btw thanks again for your help last night..

SWAG...Ok flash is complete, and remap on both sides is fixed..

---------- Post added at 07:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:17 PM ----------

So why aren't we able to remove the Batt icon in these roms? I noticed you changed the wording, from sometime in the future, to not gonna happen?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ReapersDeath:
Dont mean to be a smartass but "once you have the rom in one screen and hot fix1 in the other erase the files from rom zip that you see in hotfix1,transfer new files to rom." how do you transfer what you just deleted from inside the zip? =p
[EVO 4G Android Development] yznhmr:
I unzipped all 3 hot fixes and went from there.. not sure what 7zip does, as i use winrar
[EVO 4G Android Development] PyreKing:
Just drag the files from hot fix to the rom folder or copy and paste. Don't remove Meta info in the rom that you see in fix 1 it will merge with the other one no problem.
[EVO 4G Android Development] PyreKing:
I would just to be safe. Glad I could help you. Return the favor to someone else good carma ya know.

On a side note Swag the fixes are working good.
[EVO 4G Android Development] FattySparks:
Hey guys,

I keep getting a force close on the HTC News widget, when I try to add it to a screen.

[EVO 4G Android Development] rickmatic:
Just wanted to say awesome work Swag...

1. The aroma(what ever its called) has too many menu and options. It's fine for those who love kernels different mods and such, but for those of us that like it simple. It's a bit much.

2. It seems like the 3g on the new release is a bit slower than 2.8 release. Could just be me.

Other than this I think its perfect. Nice job.
[EVO 4G Android Development] slippers67:
I know you like to use the center gradient status bar for the centered clock, but in my opinion it would look better with the sense 4.0-ish theme to use a consistent gradient, like mikg (or some of your previous teaser shots had), such as:

Tommy likes the center gradient one too, to my dismay. :(

Anyway, not a big deal, cool rom. :)

gotta be kidding me

it saves him from having to upload 4 different roms... its easy to do you just choose your options. Please don't complain about the best installer for roms on any android device.
[EVO 4G Android Development] phillymade:
Yes it fixes the left remap issue, and no you don't flash it. Watch the video there are some steps involved. It's not hard, just takes some time. 5 min or so.

---------- Post added at 08:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:07 AM ----------

+1. It is an easy way to install, and it does give you a basic install option. You don't have to go through the menu items if you don't want. And to the plus side, it does install faster than a normal zip flash. I like it and it looks like it will be the new way to flash as many dev's are using it. Give it a chance new is good.

As for the 3G, the settings are the same as the last version, nothing changed I'm still getting the same results.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lordtinuviel:
nice job, love the rom...so far so good bu I'm having problems mappint the right button, everytime I try I get a force close, i'm fixing permissions, will u pdate later thru the day
[EVO 4G Android Development] phillymade:
+1 on the news widget. It seems to be missing from the system apps. I'm going to try to push it and see if I can get it to work. I'll let you know.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ejc1214:
I had same issue and I just re-downloaded and went thru the hot-fixes and reloaded ROM. I did switch to Odex from Deodex and do not have any more issues.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jonathan.strunk:
+2?! completely agree... the basic option is there if you want it, having the choice to do all the customization in the install is awesome. I thought the install was faster too... good to know i'm not crazy.
[EVO 4G Android Development] phillymade:
Did the hot fixes as per the video instructions. I'm good with the left remap, but I get an FC on the right remap. Did the permission and uid ix and still no go. Anyone else?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jonathan.strunk:
also swagstr, i don't seem to be having any issues with the hotfixes so if you get anymore i you want to try out let me know.

It was already mapped from the 2.0.8 install, so I was lucky there.
[EVO 4G Android Development] swagstr:
Thread is popular, hard to keep up. Okay, here is Hotfix 4. This will bring back the HTC News app. I wanted to removed the Google one (because the ROM currently has two news app... WTF lol). This should also fix the remap FC on DEODEX. Annnndd... Beside a few .png mismatches here and there (in the not. pulldown), we should be bug free soon. I will release 2.0.9.X with X = the hotfix that fixed the solutions. Then we will sit and wait for a lil so swagstr's brain can re cooperate from all this ROMing ;)

I'm not going to be able to add any more features from Sense 3.0 into this ROM, I'm sorry.

run in terminal emulator:

su

chmod 666 /data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/files/*

reboot

When all the bugs are worked out, I will release a new full ROM.

Choose N, you will have less running in the background = better battery life.

So, I don't know how to add that mod to Tweaks. But I think I'm going to be doing it to the app myself soon. What version of the status bar/notification pulldown do you use btw?

Thanks for the edit ;) And thanks for reporting this issue, I think I have it fixed with Hot Fix 4.

Hmmm... 3D?

I'm hearing a lot of worry over the complexity of the AROMA Installer. I'm going to try to dumb it down without holding back the amount of options available. Hopefully I can do good things :D

Post a .png and I'll make a ZipThemer for ya ;)

Hehe You right, it is fast. But give the people some credit, with all the DEODEXs and ODEXs, tis a bit confusing :confused:

I'm hoping your using DEODEX. If you are, the new hot fix will set you straight :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] phillymade:
Oh, I'm using deodex alright (that is my preference). So going with hot fix 4. And by the way, I don't know why anyone is complaining about aroma. The thing is sweet, all you have to do is read and pick your options, what's the problem? I love it, keep it the way it is. Great work as always, and take a well deserved rest from all this Swagging :cool:

its one of the options in the installer, it will give you the phone and the internet icon, its called a "themed" version.. you can still remap the buttons tho.. they will

just keep the icons

This is awesome Swag.

Question. I added HF 1, 2, and 3 to the ROM package and flashed the entire package. Can I individually flash HF4 over my current install? Or do I need to add HF 4 to the modded package and install fresh?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jonathan.strunk:
add it and reflash... its going to be that way with all the HF... luckily we don't have to redownload the entire rom... at least until he's got em all and he re-releases it with all of them in there.
[EVO 4G Android Development] yznhmr:
each time you add a HF( or several HF) to the rom you have to reflash the rom over the existing rom.. dont need to clear the caches or any thing.. it wont break your install..

if you are using DTa2sd dont forget to flash it after flashing the rom before rebooting

you can add all the HF at once and flash one time

For SOS-X users, if you installed the generic sense 4 rosie (the + signs) if you open es file explorer, go to the sos folder and open it, the zip themer app is in there as well as the zip theme zips for the left phone and right browser icons. Just an FYI for the ones that chose the un-themed rosie by mistake.

[EVO 4G Android Development] swagstr:
Buenas tardes Swag Nation,

First of all, I wanted to thank Jason W. and Ben P. for the donations. I really appreciate the support and the love! Keeps me workin'!

Anyway, I clearly have a problem and am addicted to making this damn thing perfect ;)

Here's my plans for the near future (because I always wanted to know that when I was a user):

Whenever I get home, I'm going to upload 2.0.9.4 (which includes all the Hot Fixes up to 4). If you are keeping up with the hot fixes, no need to download! If you are too scared to do the hot fixes, here ya go! :) Once I upload it, I will be removing 2.0.9 (virgin) because it simply has too many bugs and I want to make sure the people that jump on board later get the good sh-t.

Next, I'm gonna take my time on HF5. The goal is to re-do (to an extent) the aroma-config file. My homeboy grayn0de (anyone looking for a Sense-less ROM, AlterROM is a great SOS alternative) has been helping me thoroughly since he is a bad ass at this stuff. In normal people talk, this means that the first screen you will be greeted with will look something like:

Choose ROM Type:

SOS X | DEODEX

SOS X | ODEX

SOS N | DEODEX

SOS N | ODEX

SOS S | DEODEX

SOS S | ODEX

The next screen will look like this:

Typical Install (install it how it use to be)

Custom Install (select modifications to include in ROM)

Then you will be greeted with a screen with all the options we have now, but you will only see relevant options. That is, SOS X users won't see SOS N add-ons and vice versa. Also, the DEODEX options will stay with the DEODEX selection and the same for ODEX.

I think this will make installation way more simple :D

I suppose in the process I will have to add SOS S to the ROM. It's only a few more MB.

Next will be HF 6. I will fix my removal of the clock mods from the Tweaks app by editing SystemUI.apk (thanks tommytomatoe!) and I will also fix the .png mis-matches for the USB icon and status bar icon backgrounds. Also, I noticed the Quick Settings order varies A LOT between the different choices. For the sake of reducing fragmentation, I'll fix that too ;)

HF 7 I'm going to add the option for volume wake.

HF 8 I'm going to allow users to selectively choose what installs with the ROM. Hell, I may include this in 5, we'll see how crazy I get.

HF 9 will just wrap up any loose ends, there is the possibility of HF 10+.

In the meantime, I'm working hard to port ICE CREAM SWAG back over to 4.67.

Also, I'm going to port over all the themes.

Anyone good at using 7-zip? It's pretty easy to port the themes and I'm going to be using ZipThemer .zips for most of the themes. Let me know if you would be interested in helping. Just to clarify, I'm not trying to teach people how to do it, but I will show you how I want it done ;)

Okay, bye for now!

This isn't happening for me (same config). Are you using any other mods and what did you come from (ROM) and what wipe did you perform?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Antimus82:
A2SD missing

First let me say that this Rom is great. Everything seems to be working smooth on by phone by after I flashed it i noticed that my partition for a2sd doesn't show in TB. I reflashed and added hotfix 1 -3 to the ROM and its still the same. My sd card didn't format cause I still have all my pics, music. Did I miss something?

Thanks for the Rom. I hop the updates continue.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jonathan.strunk:
did you reflash dtapps2sd after installing the rom?

Edit: anyone else like me in that they've stopped looking at other theads? the is pretty much the only one i've come to in the past week unless i'm going for info (i.e. difference between the kernels)
[EVO 4G Android Development] FattySparks:
I came from SOS S 2.0.9 with no wipe. The only mod that I enabled was the SOS X Odexed Themed dock. I tried wiping data with settings as well with Titanium Backup, but still no fix. I'm going to try a fresh install and see if that works. I'll let you know.

I also installed the same way on my wife's evo, so when she gets home I'll test hers to see if she has the same problem.

---------- Post added at 03:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:47 PM ----------

Even on a fresh install (wipe everything) I'm still having the problem.
