Most are still in progress. Especially the new stuff.

The new themes and all their pieces will go up with the next release.

The notification pulldown project went on hold. I want to re-base the SystemUI.apk to incorporate romanbb tweaks. When that is done, I will start rolling out the notification pulldown themes.

Regarding my OG EVO. I pulled it out of the rice to test it. Black screen only :( Back in the rice it goes. I was talking to this lady at a local Sprint store and she said if I could get all of the water out that they could do a swap - but that is probably unlikely.

Hopefully it can fix itself. In the mean time... head over to the blog and click on those adds like crazy!! (Help pay for my $100 deductible lol) :D

Swag Nation,

Big day today. The OFFICIAL v1.9.0.7 | SNAP BACK SWAG is up!!! Both Swag = ON and Swag = OFF (reminder to new Swag fans: Swag = OFF features most of the mods of Swag = ON with a completely stock look) have been updated (and also uploaded to ROM Manager).

Also I have added the full themes to the Swagification Post (that's post 2). And, yes, all of the links are working ;)

I also added a flasher to get you back to the stock clock widget - I know a lot of you want this.

Enjoy your new Swag :cool:

P.S.: I was going to make an update .zip for those of you using v1.9.0.7 SE, but since my EVO is out of commission and I couldn't test the .zip, I figured I would just let y'all download the full ROM. (Sorry for the inconvenience :()

Reminder: My EVO is still sitting in rice (wasn't looking good on last test :(), so these latest updates have

not

been tested. HOWEVER, everything should be fine, because I have only made minor upgrades since v1.9.0.7 SE.

ONE LAST THING: Deductible for a new EVO 4G is $100. I ain't askin' for donations. Just go to the blog (link in my sig) and click some ads. Takes a few seconds of your time and it actually makes me money. If you guys click it enough in the next 48 hours I will be able to cash out $100! (Hey, that's just enough to get my EVO replaced... hmmm... :)) All ad clicks are very appreciated :D I will now shut up.

Who wants an app dedicated to Swagged Out Stock?

Well if you said "YES!" You're in luck. Although the app is not quite ready yet, it has begun beta testing.

To be finished, it will need snapshots of all of the themes (to look pretty).

Since I don't have an OG EVO at the moment, I'm leaving that up to you Swag Nation. PM me with a screenshot of every themed element. Whenever somebody sends me one (or dibs' one) I will post it below (and maybe add this to post 3):

Themes:

[NONE]

Theme Pieces:

[NONE]

Add-Ons:

[NONE]

The faster I get high resolution photos, the faster the app comes out. (When I say hi-res, the native screenshot works just fine ;))

If you guys do this... you're the best (jk you already are :D but please do this ;))

I tried clicking, but no ads...wait, there is an ad blocker on swag, right? doh! Went back to my desktop and clicked some. Where do I donate if I want to? My paypal account has money in it today.

Is this considered a safe and stable build? I've had some random boot loop issues with 1.9.0.4. . Not a ton and its otherwise worked great, but I sure don't want more of them.

FYI, when I checked for updates in rom manager premium, it said there were none. I was able to browse to it manually, however. Please keep using Rom Manager as I basically bought it to try to make updates as painless as possible....would love it if the check for updates feature worked.

Thanks for all your work Swagstr...love the ROM!

It's been my experience that if it is there and it installs, that all of the apps will automatically get moved to the SD card. Maybe I'm wrong, but it always seems to work that way.

[EVO 4G Android Development] swagstr:
Maybe if you remove the partition it will stop automatically using it? Like I said, I'm not really sure. Worth a shot if your willing to play the format game ;)

OK, probably a stupid question, but I am trying to get the stock widget working and cannot get it to appear.

You can clear data for sense in manage apps. You'll have to add your apps and widgets to your screens again but that usually fixes your issue. Good luck.

I agree, I'm fairly certain swgstr is not the developer for half the mods/tweaks on these Roms. There is strict protocol on using others mods and tweaks without permission or at least props in the op. The are some stickied rules at the top of the dev page. Might wanna give them a look.

Just a heads up man, that's not the way we do it here.

On a side note good work on the rom. Glad I'm not the only making ota sense 1.0 Roms these days. Everyone seems to have bailed to the 3d.

Wipe necessary?

Is a wipe necessary when moving from v1.9.0.7 SE to SNAP BACK SWAG? Just wiped prior to installing v1.9.0.7 SE, and even with Titanium, etc., it takes freaking forever!

Here are a few requests for the future:

implement fix to to change RTSP and HTTP proxy port and address to 0 (improves download speed) see http://www.goodandevo.net/2011/01/h...eaming-on-your-rooted-htc-evo-sense-only.html ;

increase MMS maximum message size (used to be in Sprint Lovers) and

Other than that, awesome ROM. Better than all the others.

Stupid question

Okay I use Titanium Backup pro - normally I just do the batch restore of missing apps and data. then have to restore some system data to get my phone back where it was. Can I do the restore missing apps + all system data or will I get errors and have to reflash? I know months ago I tried that and was having issues (on another ROM) just wanted to see if anyone has tried that with success?

Just did a full wipe and upgraded to the newest SOS. This is the best ROM I have used, I even wiped all my other back ups other than my stock rooted backup and the other versions of SOS. I havent looked at another ROM since I flashed this one! this is almost perfect - if the camera could be updated to the new one (I know it cannot) it would be perfection! Even without that its great and its a keeper
[EVO 4G Android Development] jsm927:
Okay I answered my question on the system restore, I did only restore some of the system apps (as I have been doing ) but here is the real question, is there anything that will restore the phone with the icons and widgets how I had them ? That is always my biggest pet peeve when flashing having to redo them every time.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nbock01:
Newest Swag is looking great! All of the themes on the OP still good to use on this version?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dgreyesq:
Last full wipe was on install of .7 SE a few days ago. :confused:
[EVO 4G Android Development] davidstjohn1:
I had some issues myself with se to this version so what I did was a full wipe using amon ra and the issues went away. Im always on the opinion of a full wipe when installing a new rom. Even better is to do a full wipe for a final version like this one. BTW how did you get the circle battery widget?
[EVO 4G Android Development] swagstr:
Usually you can't restore widgets, but if you use something like MyBackup Root, you should be able to backup your icons. But it could always bork your ROM install.

Check the attached picture. There should be the options enabled, this is from the .xml file that enables it. The only thing that would stop you from seeing these options would be if you haven't done a complete wipe. I would recommend re-wiping.

All right, watched the video. It appears I have removed the voicemail app from Swag = OFF! Whoops. Uninstall the voicemail you currently have installed. Take the attached .apk and push it to /system/app (not /data/app). You could also do this with ES File Explorer or Root Explorer. This should get you all fixed up! Good luck! :D (Let me know if you need anything else ;))

I also attached this .apk to the OG OP for any future Swag = OFF users with this issue and will be added back in the next release.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dgreyesq:
OK I was hoping to avoid the complete wipe again, for a variety of reasons, mostly the time it takes to get back to where I started without overwriting any of the new features. For a complete wipe, in addition to wiping both caches, in the past I have reformatted system and data. Is there anything else I should do?

Thanks for your help

[EVO 4G Android Development] Jakeup96:
I just came back to this Rom after trying some others out for a while and must say it's greatly improved.

As far as the folks with the camera issues, here's what I always do when I flash any Rom other than decks or CM.

1. Download this, http://db.tt/jzicDOOo it's the camera from decks first release that had the volume button camera, which is why I use it.

2. Using Root Explorer, set to mount r/w and go into system/app and delete the HTC Camera apk

3. Still in Root Explorer Copy the Camera apk you just downloaded from sdcard/download and paste in system/app

4. Long press the Camera.apk you just pasted and a menu will pop up, choose Permissions and put a check under Read in all three boxes and put a check in Write under Owner only. Everything else should be blank.

5. Reboot, when your phone starts back up you'll have a working camera that allows you to take pictures with the volume buttons.

I had been told on another forum that this wouldn't work but I assure you it does, and I'm a total novice at messing around with this type of stuff but I was able to figure this out on my own.
[EVO 4G Android Development] usmaak:
I will definitely give this a try.

---------- Post added at 06:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:49 PM ----------

The new camera came up, but it didn't make any difference. My pictures were still way too dark. I'm not an Android or Linux developer, I'm strictly windows. So my terminology might be off. But it seems to me that there is a camera library somewhere in GB, and that's what controls things like flash timing. No matter what camera is used, it has to go through that lib, and the results are always the same.

Like I said, I may be way off on that, but that's how it seems from a Windows developer perspective.

[EVO 4G Android Development] megabiteg:
One thing that I've noticed about the EVO camera and dark pictures is that you have to know how to use the focus function so you can alter how the lens permits more clarity enter or less. By default this setting isn't in optimum configuration, you have to try focusing (by taping the screen) at different items and you will see how the lighting will dramatically change and your pictures will be a lot better.

Trust me, I came from the Epic 4g and the camera was awesome, and when I got the EVO I kind of felt disappointed at first but once I learned this trick I'm loving the pictures I'm taking with this phone.
[EVO 4G Android Development] usmaak:
This is not the issue. There are some of us Evo 4G owners who have problems with the camera on the GB ROMs. There has been nothing so far that has fixed this. To recap, I've tried every single Evo Gingerbread ROM known in combination with every kernel available. This includes the stock ROM and kernel. I get the same results on every single one. I've also tried every downloadable camera off of the market, and I get the same results with every one of those. Those of us with the problem did not have the problem on the Froyo ROMs. The pictures all came out perfect. We also do not have the problem on AOSP ROMs such as CM7. The pictures on CM7 come out perfect. I can flash to either Froyo or AOSP ROMs right now, and the problem goes away. If I go back to any Gingerbread ROM, it comes right back. As far as we have been able to tell, it appears to be a flash timing issue where the flash is firing just a bit too soon. If you are getting decent lower light pictures on the Evo using any Gingerbread ROM, then you do not have the problem. For those of us with the problem, there is no trick to making it work. It just doesn't work. Not everyone has it. I have a thread going on the general Evo forum where I'm trying to isolate some sort of hardware/camera combination that is causing this, but I haven't gotten many responses that are of any use.

Nope! This didn't work. I wiped the Cache/Dalvik, reinstalled a different kernel. Same issue. Did it again with the included kernel, nope.

I wiped the entire ROM, reinstalled it completely from scratch...same issue.

The sound is fine when I listen to it through the phone speaker, but through the headphones the sound is completely F*&K8D.
