[EVO 4G Android Development] brad560:
quick update to the 4.54.651.1 stock rom, based on input here from the past two weeks, as well as testing on my own. pretty much left out any mods if i happen to put them in, and left it pure stock.

new links in OP.

thanks all who have shared their input
[EVO 4G Android Development] KoKoMaster:
hey brad, does this mean that the new update has ciq back in it? or is that still removed?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Royalfox:
I also want to know if new update has still a2sd baked in.

PC36100
[EVO 4G Android Development] brad560:
after some thought, i left it in, not because i feel it is right, but because since it is a "base" rom developers can take it out, as well as end users through various means. Now i know this might upset some users, and i understand that. I just wanted a untouched, stock rom, like all the previous ones before mine.

hope this makes sense.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Royalfox:
Thats fine. I think Ciq won't hurt me, living in Mexico here.

PC36100
[EVO 4G Android Development] brad560:
No it does not.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Nagrom Nniuq:
Looks like HTC and Sprint are beginning to remove CIQ from all devices starting today. Dunno when the Evo 4G will have it removed, but I'm guessing soon.
[EVO 4G Android Development] maxarbos:
I'm looking to get my device updated. Right now I'm running 2.2. Everything works on this ROM, right: 4G, etc.. ?

I rooted a year and a half ago and haven't done anything since, so I;m a little rusty. From what I remember and been reading, different ROMs have certain things that done work.

Will I still need to update the Radio, WiMAx, etc?

I see the bundle here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=715485

Thanks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Nagrom Nniuq:
Wow... 2.2? Why did you never upgrade to 2.3 last year? They have changed so much in 2.3, radios, PRL, PRI, etc since 2.2 came out. I would have thrown my phone away if I was still on 2.2.

Anyhow, yes, go update your phones radios, PRL, PRI. This ROM will update to 2.3 and the latest patches and yes, everything works fine.

ALSO FYI, Megaupload has been shutdown and it's employees are being prosecuted. So it's probably time to switch to another host for your update file brad560 ;-)
[EVO 4G Android Development] maxarbos:
I guess I'm getting old and dont have time for it all.

[EVO 4G Android Development] angelzmom:
so basically...

this is the new update? all i need to do is flash this rom? i am already using a rooted stock rom
[EVO 4G Android Development] brad560:
this is not the new update, this is 4.54, the last update with ciq still in the stock rom, 4.67 is the newest..

missing some widgets

I just installed the Deodex'ed version of this rom, My questions is, is this rom missing some widgets (peope (favorite) widgets, calendar widget, also when i choose the settings from widget selection there is nothing on the screen, it is all black...?

Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] brad560:
Nothing is removed at all, i personally installed the de'oxed version twice last night before uploading, had no issues. i can verify the widgets are there by flashing again?

i am sorry your having minor issues.

to nlp1090 - i just reflashed the de=odexed, choose clean slate from the htc scene personalize menu and added widgets with no issues. i assume you did a full wipe before flashing.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nlp1090:
I did flash the rom again, but still could not get the people widget option and the other options. Do i need to factory wipe and install this rom? Or am i missing something in the installation.

Thank you for your quick reply and help..

Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] brad560:
just a regular wipe through your recovery first, then flash., i have flashed with amon and clockwork, but not twrp. strange.

i'm gonna unzip the rom and triple check the files are there.

edit - the apk's are in system/app where they should be.
[EVO 4G Android Development] PHE-NOM:
Everything works great. And I don't understand why people always ask, do I need to fully wipe before installing this Rom? YES, you should ALWAYS fully wipe before flashing a Rom, even sometimes the sdext, since you can carry some apps that conflicts with other roms. Anywho, this this is fast! Is crazy how stock roms run so good....... Lol. Thanks for sharing.
[EVO 4G Android Development] brad560:
thanks PHE-NOM, glad to hear it's working right.

i don't think it is alot of people don't know to wipe, i think they just might go to fast in the recovery, don't know what to wipe, etc. i myself have tripped up a flash or two by my fingers going too fast through amon ra.
[EVO 4G Android Development] JDM Civic EG8:
Everything is working buttery smooth and great!! Deleted all the bloat and widgets I don't use, installed widgetlocker for the 2.1 sense feel haha. I do have one question though.... Do you think the quicksettings mod would work with this Rom?

Sent From my Verizon powered Evo 4G!
[EVO 4G Android Development] brad560:
if it worked on the latest release before yesterday's patch, i don't see why not? i don't use the mod personally.
[EVO 4G Android Development] PHE-NOM:
lol, i guess so, but forgetting to wipe is not the same as not knowing if you should or not..... it just seems like in every rom thread people always ask, should we wipe? of course you should, lol. unless is a rom update patch....... but everything is working smoothly and super fast. not a single glitch yet. only thing that i dont like is that dta2sd isn't working for me, might re-flash and see if it was a bad flash, unless im slow and this doesn't support dta2sd script...... lol.
[EVO 4G Android Development] brad560:
you have a valid point!! as far as the dta2sd, i did not bake anything into the rom, so if the stock doesn't support it? this may not? i do not use any move to sd card mods/scripts/apks myself.
[EVO 4G Android Development] JDM Civic EG8:
I tried to see if it would work but didn't haha. But quick settings in the market works just as good. Thanks for the Rom brad keep up the great work!!

Is there anyway to apply just the patch minus flashing the whole stock rom again?
[EVO 4G Android Development] brad560:
if myself (or a dev) can get to the update.zip file that htc drops on the phone, there is a way to get it on to a stock rom. i'll see what i can do.
[EVO 4G Android Development] someonenewhere:
Thanks dude! that would be just awesome!
[EVO 4G Android Development] brad560:
sure. can whip up something later tonight. I'm working on the latest update to my rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] joetowel:
Thank you so much for this brad560! I just deleted some bloat out of the system/app folders before installing, and it is working great!

People will probably start asking, so I also flashed the hotspot fix from rom 4.24, and it still works. I also flashed the ndriver fix, it was installed successfully, but not sure if its working, although it probably is since this update did not change too much.

Thanks again.
[EVO 4G Android Development] brad560:


Thanks for your reply!
[EVO 4G Android Development] brad560:
I did get the .zip file (just the update) out of the stock rom, if anyone needs it or would like me to post it let me know!

That would be great if you can. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] brad560:
i will update the OP with the zip file

is the zip file signed?
[EVO 4G Android Development] lambofgod13:
Nice job, thx
[EVO 4G Android Development] brad560:
if it is coming straight out of the 4.53 stock rom, i assume htc signed it? i didn't put it through the kitchen or anything like that, just pulled it from the rom.

USB Tether

Is it possible to get USB tethering working on this ROM or do I need to go to a custom ROM? I tried wired tether 1_4 without success.
[EVO 4G Android Development] brad560:
i do not use it personally? i can test it out on both odex and deodex'ed stock and report back? i do have a non-rooted version up? sure you downloaded the ROOT version?

anyone care to chime in?

edit - wireless tether 3.0 pre 14 works fine on the deodex'ed version, trying odex next.
[EVO 4G Android Development] harrst1:
I'm using your ODEX version and wireless tether works fine. I was hoping to use wired tether because it uses less battery. Thanks for checking.
[EVO 4G Android Development] BigE54:
So I just want to be sure. If I am running a rooted stock 4.53.651.1 rom, I can just apply that update.zip, instead of flashing the complete rom?
[EVO 4G Android Development] brad560:
i have not flashed just an update.zip, i assume since it came from the unrooted, 4.53 release i can not be 100 percent sure?

i can try to test this myself.
[EVO 4G Android Development] brad560:
no problem!
[EVO 4G Android Development] zaaye:
Do i loose root.

Ok. I have the original rooted version of my phone nandroid. Not a Rom but the original right after root. If I restore to that nandroid and flash the update zip here. Do I lose root? Rooted with Revolution.

Thanks for any help!
[EVO 4G Android Development] brad560:
i know your s-off should be fine, as I have done things gone unrooted/rooted and it is still s-off, as far as root, you may lose it. i am gonna try to test this theory now :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] zaaye:
Cool. Thanks. So if I lose root but keep s off, would I just install super user and be fine?
[EVO 4G Android Development] brad560:
yes, have a copy of superuser and your favorite recovery just in case! better to be safe safe safe
[EVO 4G Android Development] brad560:
ok, to answer the questions the past few posts:

i went back and did a ruu of 4.53

installed recovery and superuser

put the 4.54 update zip file on sd card

flashed through amon ra

did it's thing and rebooted says congrats your at 4.54 blah blah

superuser was still there. still s-off, but recovery gone, so the superuser is there but i assume should be reflashed after you reflash your recovery?
[EVO 4G Android Development] zaaye:
Thanks for the information.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tom6433:
weird but i cannot get the update to install. i usually use clockwork recovery but you said you had luck using amon ra so i tried that as well and it fails every time. you are just going in and installing it as a zip right and not renaming it to pc36img right?
[EVO 4G Android Development] 1gr8papa:
I flashed this ROM over top of NinjaWolf's deodexed and it worked fine. The update wouldn't take flashing thru Amon or Clockwork.

[EVO 4G Android Development] brad560:
Right
[EVO 4G Android Development] dmolavi:
Since it appears that this basically removes the HTCLoggers binary, if you are already rooted, why not just delete it manually (or via Titanium)?

I've got the stock ROM from the previous update, rooted, and removed the loggers apk...it doesn't look like anything else substantial has changed, so even though i don't have the most recent version, from a functionality standpoint, i'm on par...

U using clockwork or amon ra?

thanks, i am catching up on posts here made today, i see some use clockwork? the method i used a page or two back i use amon ra. i can try it in clockwork myself.

trying to figure out why alot of people are having issues flashing just the update when i didn't
[EVO 4G Android Development] velociraptors:
That was flashing the update.zip, not the full ROM. Forgot to mention that.
[EVO 4G Android Development] brad560:
trying the update.zip with clockwork. right now!!

1. ran stock ruu

2. flashed clockwork 5.0.2.2 (latest)

3. flashed superuser 2.3.6.3 (did not update to latest)

4. flashed update .. doing it's thang..... waiting install complete

5. reboot.... once to clockwork logo black screen twice... to phone

6. says congrats phone updated blah blah

7. still have super user, LOST RECOVERY

i did not rename the actual update file from htc, which for reference is: OTA_Supersonic_4.54.651.1-4.53.651.1_releaserr6s78ehdxxc436e

interesting... thoughts??
[EVO 4G Android Development] velociraptors:
Interesting... I think I'll just grab the full ROM to flash. That seems easiest. I did have the most recent superuser installed, but I have no idea if that might make a difference.

I was in this situation, so I went ahead and tried it. Evo 4G rooted with Revolutionary running stock rom 4.53.651.1.

I downloaded just the update file (OTA_Supersonic_4.54.651.1-4.53.651.1_releaserr6s78ehdxxc436e.zip)

Restarted, volume down to load bootloader

Installed ZIP from SDcard, chose OTA....zip - install successful

Restarted phone, boot successful, update shows successful:

OTA update applied by kfanciu, on Flickr

So it seems like everything worked fine, but I find in my Running Services that HTC IQAgent is still running. . .wasn't this what the update was supposed to remove?

Make sure you use the more recent of the two, 4.54.651.1 is not listed but it worked for me, your mileage may vary.

[EVO 4G Android Development] truedis:
I was using MIUI before but wanted to flash to update Profile/PRL/GPSCLRX. I did a full wipe in Amon Ra after a nandroid and then tried flashing this. I've also been having a lot of crashes so wanted to check totally stock to see if it's a hardware issue and have it be unrooted if I have to return the phone. I am rooted/S-OFF/etc and have been through Cyanogenmod, Synergy, lots of rooted stock rom versions, all that jazz without a single flashing issue.
[EVO 4G Android Development] brad560:
only thing i can think of is something is preventing you from updating the "no rooted" zip in the "root" rom. i know personally i would have to reflash superuser and sometimes my recovery.

anyone else can chime in here?

Hmm,yeah, strange. I just flashed the odexed rooted one and it worked fine. You've definitely tested the unrooted one with Amon Ra?
[EVO 4G Android Development] NinjaWolf:
Off of my first guess, I would suggest cwm to see if the problem persist, but first I suggest redownloading the rom as sometimes the zips get corrupted. If the problem still persist after those solutions. Then tell me and ill dig deeper for a solution.

P.S. I was going to quote the user but accidentally quoted you and didn't want to retype because I'm on my phone.

WIPE question: sorry about this but I am confused. What's the diff between full wipe and factory reset? and more to the point, I have had my evo for almost a year, it's rooted, I just installed your new rooted odexed 4.54.651.1. I have never done a factory reset; I generally wipe only the cache and dalvik cache. sometimes the data as well. (I use Amon Ra 2.3). I have nandroid backups and mybackuppro app backups. Is it good practice to factory reset? And would that have impact on my storage space? I get frequent messages that my storage space is only 50 - 60 Mb. This after removing most of the Sprint bloatware that I could remove, as well as flash and qik updates.

Thanks so much to you for all your efforts im making this great device even better!
[EVO 4G Android Development] brad560:
A factory reset is done through the phone, usually when your non-rooted, which will bring your evo back to "factory" condition, all your data (texts, market downloads) will be erased and it will be like you just turned your evo on for the first time. A "full wipe" is done when your rooted through your recovery - it wipes EVERYTHING from the phone (except your sd card and wimax keys) dependiing on what recovery you use and what options you choose for a full wipe (usually, system, boot, data)

i've never done a factory reset while being rooted myself.

hope that answers your question.
[EVO 4G Android Development] AlvinT:
Wow. Talk about quick reply. Glad I asked ... I clearly do NOT want a factory reset

Almost completely dispels my confusion. So a "full wipe" means cache, dalvik-cache, data, .android-secure, boot, system, sdext, stats and rotate settings too? that is, everything except the factory reset and the sdcard?
[EVO 4G Android Development] brad560:
a full wipe will leave your phone without a rom so to speak.. i assume you want a "fresh start'?? so basically they are the same thing, except a full wipe does a better job wiping your phone obviously.

yes that is what it means
