You having 14 thanks doesn't make you any better than him because he has 5, or me better than you because I have 1K+. Also, I've had numerous people try to donate to me just for being helpful, simple flashing, and un-bricking devices, ect...; if he wants to have a donate link, to each his own. If you want thanks, be helpful and respectful. Also, use some sense and don't feed the trolls.

I have reflashed numerous times. In a nutshell, I have to shake the phone, and then the compass works. When I exit whatever app that is using the compass, it stops working again. Same thing with calibration. I have to shake the phone first.

Good Memory GW! I don't remember if I experienced the issue on your Stock EVO4G TN Edition or SHOOTER E3D ROM (I still use both of them by the way), but I used to be able to get the compass working by flashing either Freedom or Chopsuey kernels and then reflashing the stock kernel, but now it seems to be permanently broken no matter which ROM or kernel combo I use. I agree that it has to be a hardware issue... It just kills me to have to pay a $100 deductable for the equipment protection plan to get an EVO 4G replacement. Unfortunately, I still have a year and a half on my contract. I could buy a pretty good compass for $100!
[EVO 4G Android Development] AirborneCmH:
I know your respected on here and not going to get into a pissing match. I have read numerous times on here about not giving the idiots attention but this one I wouldn't pass up. I never once said that I was better than him and the thanks meter I could care less about. I don't dev but a handful on here do, and they deserve a hit on the thanks button or a small donation for the work that hundreds or thousands download. I was simply letting the guy have it due to his comments which were ridiculous. Just as you said above relates here, if I want to speak my mind about a idiotic comment, to each his own. Your last sentence is irrelevant, I don't need you telling me about using sense.
[EVO 4G Android Development] teh roxxorz:
Naw brah, not trying to get into a match with you at all. I may have interpreted it wrong, so I apologize if I did. I agree that the thanks bar is completely meaningless. And again, I apologize, didn't mean for it to come off as you feeding the trolls, just sometimes is good to just let it go. :)

I'm having a problem with wifi tethering. If I turn on sprint hotshot it says I don't have it on my account so I tried the wireless tether app and nothing can connect to it. I got my computer to connect once but it wouldn't load any websites.

Is this a known issue or is it just me? I check the 1st and 2nd posts and didn't see anything about it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] AirborneCmH:
I will agree with you that on here it is just written text and sometimes things can be taken the wrong way. By your response I obviously know that I have taken what you said wrong myself. I do know what you were explaining, and just wanted to throw a thanks in to you because I have downloaded a mess of roms on here and your always helping people out in many different threads.

Haven't updated my evo in a while, can't wait to flash this good looking rom.

Well its all good, no one is perfect. And yea, text it tricky because the same thing can have a bad connotation just if ya look at it wrong lol. And well 14 is such an ugly number, lets make it 15. :) And thanks as well, I see you doing your part as well.

[EVO 4G Android Development] huntingr:
Very weird... I installed the latest Google Maps update via the Market today and now the compass works... Coincidence?
[EVO 4G Android Development] gruesomewolf:
Maybe it (your compass that is) has decided that it will work only when is convenient for it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Novarider:
Anyone have any ideas? I have never bumped my own question before but this is a deal breaker for me. I really like this rom but I need my wireless tether.

FYI - It took allot of digging and searching, but I finally found the fix for my compass issue over at android forums (thanks justing1319). The calibration data file was corrupted.

Delete the calibration data files (use a root file explorer):

/data/misc/AK8973Prms.txt

/data/misc/AK8973Prms.txt.tmp

Then reboot the phone.

This removes the saved calibration data. On reboot it will regenerate these files.

The compass now works flawlessly (OK to calibrate)

Reference: http://androidforums.com/incredible...-compass-calibration-problem.html#post3644026 (Post #10)

I did verify what is causing the file to become corrupted. If I calibrate the G-Sensor via the display settings page, it breaks the compass again.

Anyone else have their alarm not sound? The alarm icon in the status bar disappeared and my alar. Didn't sound I went into the alarm settings and it was checked that it was on, but it wasn't. Needless to say I found out the hard way
[EVO 4G Android Development] gruesomewolf:
Really nice find man, I'm gonna have to remember that one.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tuscolavol:
By chance... you aren't using the ASOP lockscreen, are you? If you deleted the Sense lockscreen, the alarm doesn't work. Just a stab at trying to help. :confused:
[EVO 4G Android Development] scottspa74:
Ouch, man. Really sorry to hear that. I know i havent had any issues with alarm not working (using the htc lockscreen and alarm, of course). Hopefully isolated incident.
[EVO 4G Android Development] chupafaros:
naw I'm using the stock lockscreen. It was fun trying to explain to my boss my flashing addiction and experimental roms and all that. He was cool. Lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] sanjsrik:
Quick question, I know the original post only goes up to 1.1, but did download a version 1.3 of this ROM. Is there anywhere else updates are being released rather than the first post of the thread?

Thank you in advance.

Does anyone know how to mod the browser.apk in order to have more than 4 windows open simultaneously? I saw a how-to a few weeks ago but am unable to find it again.

Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] huntingr:
Version 1.3 is for the Droid Incredible ROM, this one (EVO 4G) is currently at version 1.0. Are you in the right thread?

(Please correct me if I am wrong 00McD00)
[EVO 4G Android Development] sanjsrik:
And this is why I'm asking. When I was in this thread earlier (about a week ago, someone asked about version 1.3), then, there was a link to 1.3. Thank for letting me know this is only for the incredible.

Sounds like your zip is corrupted or you had a bad flash. I'd try to reflash and make sure you make the recommended wipes before hand.

[EVO 4G Android Development] sanjsrik:
I downloaded version 1.0 for my Evo, rebooted into recovery (TeamWin recovery), wiped everything (dalvik, cache, etc.), flashed the 1.0 ROM

Rebooted and immediately was taken to the hboot screen where I was asked to find a pcimage or I wasn't allowed to reboot into the system. Just recovery.

I restored back to CM7 nightly and I'm bsack up, but what gives with the ROM that says it flashed fine and then won't let me get past the hboot screen with no way of booting into the system.

Any help would be most appreciated.

<been flashing ROMs for a while, so I know what to wipe and what to flash, this is the first time I've had any issues flashing a ROM>
[EVO 4G Android Development] aprilynn:
Just wanted to say thanks for this :) I've been running this ROM since it was released and I love it. I only had one small issue with my PDF reader but clearing the data and re-installing it fixed it.

Awesome job!

gmail issue

I fixed mine. I deleted the chache reloaded the rom and right after doing so applied the patch zip for gmail and then rebooted and it works fine.

Love the ROM. Very stable. Much better than the swagged out rom I was using that had very bad network issues and memory problems. The only issue is that like the other roms I cannot get it to update the PRL?

Thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] JollyGrnReefer:
If your prl won't update, try to things. Do a battery pull (soft reset) and try again. If it still won't update, goto recovery and wipe cache and dalvik cache, reboot and try again.
[EVO 4G Android Development] FancyRabbitt:
After using this rom for the past ten days, I have noticed a few things that I am curious if other people are having trouble with.

First, when I turn off my screen after sending a text, the last word of the previous will show up in the text entry area about half of the time.

Second, for some reason when sending texts, I have noticed that when I start typing, it wont capitalize the first letter.

Third, every once in a while when receiving a picture message, it will fail to download the image and when retrying to download it will just get stuck for 10-15 minutes before failing continuously. I have found that the only way to resolve is to ask the sender to resend.

and lastly, I still have the alarm settings issues that I mentioned previously. I don't think anyone has confirmed if they also have the same thing happening. Image attached shows an example
[EVO 4G Android Development] huntingr:
I have been using this ROM for probably the same amount of time as you. I have not experienced the first, second, or third issue you described, but I am experiencing the same text cut off (second line of text in each section) in the Description section of the Set Alarm screen in the Alarm Settings, exactly like the screenshot you posted. I wonder if reflashing the font will fix this issue?

Aside from the few known issues (minor fixable issues), this ROM is fast, stable, extremely reliable, and definitely a good daily driver! I have shopped around and tried many different ROMs - This is one of my favorites! I'm looking forward to what 00McD00 cooks up next!
[EVO 4G Android Development] FancyRabbitt:
Hmm, I guess I am going to go ahead and try to do a cleaner flash when 1.1 comes or over the weekend. Thanks for the response
[EVO 4G Android Development] huntingr:
FYI - After flashing the ROM (prior to reboot), I also flashed these 2 tweaks/mods (I did not create these scripts):

(You can also flash them after you've been running the ROM for a while, I just like to have a fresh start with them)

Darktremor A2SD (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=715940 - Thanks tkirton) to free up even more memory (my SD card is already partitioned) - I have ALOT of apps installed - I'm currently up to 97 apps (including apps included with ROM) and still have 316MB of free memory.

Unvisible Tweaks (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1292901 (Working download link = http://www.unvisible.org/files.html) - Thanks luciferi, juwe, and smokin1337) to make the ROM even faster (

everything

runs faster).

Of course this ROM runs perfectly awesome without these, I just always find myself wanting more and more... It's very addictive! :D

"If you flash these, don't forget to nandroid first because things

DO

go wrong sometimes!"
[EVO 4G Android Development] blackangst:
Ive been using this about a week now. For me, havent had the last word of previous showing up, I use swype and havent noticed the non capitalization issue, I have had the same picture message issue both sending and receiving, and yes, I have the same alarm text youre showing in your pic.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cloud007:

Do you have the script for Unvisible tweaks? download link is dead

HTC_IME ?

Thanks for making a great looking (and fully functional) ROM! I loaded this onto a co-workers phone and they love it!

One question I am trying to find an answer to: My co-worker loved the HTC_IME keyboard with the arrows. Something about his fat fingers and old eyes. Anyway, he couldn't find that keyboard in the ROM so we went out to find it. I took the APK from my /system/app folder and tried installing on his phone with no luck. I then tried another HTC_IME.apk from another thread on XDA but had no luck with that one either.

Both apk's start the install process but then end with "application not installed."

Does anyone have a working HTC_IME.apk for this ROM or is this something we'd have to politely request the Dev to bake into the ROM?

Thanks for the help and again, great job with this ROM.
[EVO 4G Android Development] 00McD00:
Alright guys (and gals?) I'm back! And ready to get to work on my roms 100% Sorry about my long absence, but I don't think I can describe to you the finals week I just had lol it was hell. Spent many days (yes, full days) in the library, just power-housing. So it feels good to be done to say the least...oh and I got a Galaxy Nexus, so that has been taking up some of my time as well :)

Ok I did my best to go back through the last few pages and see if I missed anything major, but man there has been a lot of discussion. So, sorry if I missed something important, but please if there is anything that really needs my attention post it again and I will be sure to take a look at it.

Now, without further adieu...time to get to work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] FancyRabbitt:
I'm excited to see that you are back, and pretty jealous of your new phone. I wanted to get one but I don't think it will be coming to sprint anytime soon. Tis' a shame
[EVO 4G Android Development] chupafaros:
lets do this!

Aye mcd only thing this rom is needing is landscape rosie mod...other than that no complaints roms blazin
[EVO 4G Android Development] scottspa74:
Did you try moving the HTC_Ime.apk to system/app and setting permissions to rw-r-r and reboot? i think that should work for ya.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cityneversleepz:
First force close issue with this rom that I notice is with the system adobe reader app. I can't get it to work even after fixing permissions. Anyone else have that problem?

If yes, I just solved it for my own situation. I used titanium backup pro to convert the system adobe reader app to a user app. That did the trick. It worked without doing anything else.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jpmaniac87:
I was having the same problem... Deleted from system and downloaded from market but still got force closes. Moved it to system app and back to user app like you did and it worked! Thanks for the troubleshooting!
[EVO 4G Android Development] huntingr:
Yep! Worked for me to! (Thanks! - I hit the thanks button)
[EVO 4G Android Development] 00McD00:
Hmm, I will see if I can find what is causing this quick.

Is there anything else that I forgot to fix which isn't in the current changelog (second post)? Anything I missed that might have been mentioned recently?
[EVO 4G Android Development] huntingr:
The text in the alarm settings screen being partially out of view?

Reference: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=20317649&postcount=410 from FancyRabbitt
[EVO 4G Android Development] 00McD00:
Oh man, if anyone has ANY idea what might be causing this, I am all ears. I'm sure that it's one rough image somewhere which is pretty much my worst nightmare to find haha. Damn, I hate little stuff like this. Drives me crazy when I can't find it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] scottspa74:
Yeah, its in the alarm clock settings.

Lol. Sorry. Couldn't resist ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] 00McD00:
Funny, funny guy...lol.

Well everything in the 2nd post changelog is working and that is probably going to be what the next release consists of. Unless I can figure out the stupid alarm clock thing or why the settings app won't use the proper launcher icon. Will upload sometime this weekend.
[EVO 4G Android Development] huntingr:
I'm no expert, but it seems like it could be some sort of text alignment issue, and maybe not graphics.
[EVO 4G Android Development] 00McD00:
Well it is a text alignment issue, but I think the alignment is being thrown off by an improperly sized image. That's what it looks like to me anyways when I compare it to my DInc. I will keep digging into it, but like I said any help would be appreciated :)

Bed time though.

[EVO 4G Android Development] NRGZ28:
Isnt that happening because you're obviously using a different set of fonts ? :) One easy fix would be revert the fonts... Or use "ps" at a shell prompt to see which app is actually displaying that dialog :P
[EVO 4G Android Development] adhusky:
This ROM is awesome but sense 1.0? Can you guys make it with sense 2.1+3.0?

Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] 00McD00:
Well that could be it, but I kind of doubt it. 1) because when I compare the same area to that on my Incredible, the graphics look off and 2) because the Roboto font is actually smaller than the stock droid font, so if anything you should be able to see more and 3) it doesn't throw anything else off on the phone which also makes me think it is an image.
[EVO 4G Android Development] FancyRabbitt:
I'm quite the fan of the font you chose for this rom, please don't take it away :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] hevyrockerdk:
Things I have noticed:

The signal bar when roaming reverts back to the sprint stock 6 bar signal icon. I have the signal icon fix installed.

Check boxes when unselected are slightly off, and when they are deactivated, say, in Facebook when you disable notifications, the greyed out selected check boxes are of the green variety. I think anything that isn't a selected check box is still set to the sprint stock pngs?

Those two are things that I have noticed that I don't think were brought up already in this thread.

Nice work though! Good on you for devving a phone you don't even have!

Sent from my OG EVO
[EVO 4G Android Development] 00McD00:
Haha don't worry, the font isn't going anywhere. Straight from google, "It is the foundation of ICS."

I will try and hunt down those green check boxes, but I just fixed the roaming signal. Thanks for alerting me to that.
