I understand WiMax, Hotspot and 3D are considered ancillary to some people, but for a lot of people those are major reasons why we purchased this particular device. I'm not saying 'hurry up', I'm just saying maybe listing them in the 'not working' category in the OP might help deal with a little of the confusion.
[HTC EVO 3D] skw5115:
Rotflmao!!!
[HTC EVO 3D] Leathal:
Hotspot maybe, but expecting 3D or Wimax to even be on the to do list for an alpha ICS ROM hacked together with twine and duct tape lifted from a leaked build from another device that doesn't support either feature...well that's just hilarious.
[HTC EVO 3D] jclendineng:
Haha of course. Also 3D ^_^
[HTC EVO 3D] P.Mobile:
any instructions on how to flash this?

i been looking around and cant find instructions on how to flash this rom?????
[HTC EVO 3D] xhazyx:
From recovery, like any other ROM... unless you have HBOOT 1.5, in which case, you can look for one of the tutorials on the forum
[HTC EVO 3D] P.Mobile:
aight cool !! thanks bro im a noob sorry!!!

I used this method last night with hboot 1.5 and it worked like a charm
[HTC EVO 3D] mrrogers1:
On some (well, I have found this on Evervolv) ICS builds, it does sync them all BUT they don't show up in the bookmark page in the browser. You just have to start typing the URL of the bookmark and it'll put it up, much like the Chrome browser.

I will throw a word of CAUTION out there for people looking for an app to restore bookmarks. MAKE SURE IT SAYS that its compatible with Honeycomb/ICS. I used to use Bookmark Sort and Backup to restore my bookmarks on my phone (I know, this isn't quite what you are talking about but bare with me) and turns out, its NOT compatible with HC/ICS and what actually happened when I would restore my GB bookmarks to the ICS rom, it would not restore them to the phone AND completely wiped out my DESKTOP Chrome bookmarks. :eek: Thank goodness I had a backup on my computer.

To those who got to test JoelZ's new build, hows it taste: -D
[HTC EVO 3D] G.Newton:
Just confirming the bluetoothd file was the cause of my battery drain issues. In developer options, I cheked the box for cpu usage and found "bluetoothd" to be almost always at the top of the list. I deleted the file and reflashed the ROM (to be safe, also wiped cache/dalvik).

I kinda liked the way Alpha 4 shut the screen off.. reminded me of my old tube TV lol. :)

Besides the landscape FC and reboots already mentioned, this is a great daily. I have recommended this ROM to anyone who asks me. Keep up the legit AF work.
[HTC EVO 3D] december.underground:
Download link in OP isn't working anyone for a mirror up for it?
[HTC EVO 3D] SketchyStunts:
Even though these alpha builds are buggy, its getting more & more exciting with each new release.

I deleted every bluetooth file I could find yesterday & it helped alot with battery drain. Of course still had the wakelock issue which is kernel related but that stopped my phone from getting so hot.
[HTC EVO 3D] ginomerino:
Tried flashing 3 times keep getting boot loop, not sure why. :confused:
[HTC EVO 3D] Nsandhu23:
Did you do a complete wipe?
[HTC EVO 3D] clburns1:
My 2 Cents on the ROM

The Good:

As previously mentioned I'm not seeing near as bad battery drain as some people. Flashed and did not replace the kernel. I also did not reset the battery stats. I just cleared cache / dalvik / system. There is a slight battery drain but nothing like others were mentioning. In about 2 1/2 hours it drained 11% (From 99% - 88%) on moderate to heavy use without wifi and in a low 3g signal.

I have not had the crash that others were talking about with soundhound pro version. It seems to analyze the songs fine.

The ROM is very fast and has only had one crash on the known landscape view (it was particularly when I was installing an app that it crashed but then I just turned it back on and everything has been fine since.)

GPS does work as opposed to what I saw others saying.

Also never noticed it getting hot like some others were mentioning

The Bad:

The GPS works but seems to be very slow (or takes a long time to aquire signal)

Netflix does not show any video just audio... not sure if this is a rom issue, a kernel issue, or an issue with Netflix and ICS.

SpeedTest.net (app) gave Ping: 371ms Download: 394kbps Upload: 139kbps (on about a one to two bar signal 3g) Ping: 75ms Download: 13424kbps Upload: 3521kbps (on WiFi)

Sometimes the youtube app will close not showing the current video.

Missing the mic VTT button on the keyboard

Slight battery drain (not too heavy)

Flash using different videos on youtube.com (not the app but using the browser in desktop view) will show audio and about 1-2fps then after about 10 seconds it will start flashing the same 2 images in the video over and over as the audio continues.

Great Job so far can't wait to see how much it improves!

* Disclaimer: Now I know this is an Alpha build and I'm not bashing this in anyway just reporting the things I saw whether they are relevant or not to this ROM. It could be or it could not be the ROM that cause some of these issues from my interpretation.

** Lists are in no specific order just as I discovered them.
[HTC EVO 3D] ShotSkydiver:
Anyone having the issue where the Gallery and Music apps won't recognize the SD card? I've reflashed and wiped and redownloaded a million times, but every time the system and file browsing apps recognize the card but music and gallery show the card as empty. Please help!
[HTC EVO 3D] clburns1:
If you are flashing with having hboot 1.5 it could cause this... read my post a page back and it will tell you how to flash while having hboot 1.5

---------- Post added at 03:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:16 PM ----------

I had this same issue but gave it a few minutes to load in all the thumbnails the first time then it started working after doing a soft reboot.
[HTC EVO 3D] Nsandhu23:
How else would someone with hboot 1.5 flash this? You have to go into fastboot to access recovery to flash.
[HTC EVO 3D] clburns1:
if you read my post one page before it tells you... It's because the hboot1.5 blocks the kernel from being installed and if you wanted to run your current kernel with this and it works than by all means you can but if the current kernel that you have doesn't work with this ROM (which I don't believe a 2.3.4 kernel will work with a 4.0.3 ROM, but I'm not sure I know 2.3.3 kernel won't work on a 2.3.4 ROM) then you have to use the method mentioned like on the previous page because it "tricks" the hboot1.5 and allows a kernel to be installed)
[HTC EVO 3D] Nsandhu23:
Okay so the only way to have this rom flashed successfully with the kernel (Chadz? I think) included is the way you mentioned?
[HTC EVO 3D] clburns1:
That's not the only way but it's without a doubt the easiest and it's the only way I've been able to flash with the evo3D because of hboot1.5 (which is the culprit in this situation) note that you don't have to flash the kernel separately it's included and will install appropriately by following those instructions.
[HTC EVO 3D] Nsandhu23:
Okay thanks.
[HTC EVO 3D] thaunknownartist:
Joel, I am a developer from OV, and I was wondering if you need help with the ROM, I have been working with JerryScripts and BobzHome on CM9, wondering if I could be assistance instead of me just making my own ICS ROM and competing with you. I have learned that the camera has kernel based problems and I didn't want to reverse engineer your work without your permission, Get back to me when you can, thank you.
[HTC EVO 3D] Cwebb03:
To the people having problems with hboot 1.5+, wipe everything them restore a working nandroid, and then install Flash Image GUI , and follow the directions on the thread (not to complex, the app does almost everything for you). Remember to wipe (lolz) and you'll still have to boot to recovery (wipe) and install the kernel/ROM from there like always. ;)
[HTC EVO 3D] vWvSTATICvWv:
That HC rom you made is pretty cool. Nice work :cool:

[HTC EVO 3D] netwokz:
If you want, I can give you a new framework-res.apk that has the on screen buttons. But the back button can be a little bugger sometimes.

[HTC EVO 3D] Cwebb03:
Lost 80% of battery from just having it sitting in my pocket today, no 3G/Wifi/GPS nothing on. Any ideas on why? I've never had that much battery drain in about 7 hours from doing nothing

It said ~30% of battery life went to screen brightness (on ~25 and off for 90% of the time), ~30% to cell standby, and ~30% to phone idle, with the rest going to Android OS/system
[HTC EVO 3D] AdhvanIt:
If its the kernel packaged with the ROM, its cayniarbs kernel. It has some wake lock issues right now. He knows about it.

---------- Post added at 07:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:29 PM ----------

I removed that file this morning, I can't really see any difference. I was off today and the phone was on and off on my charger/usb sync cable. I'm @ 85% charge with 1 hour 15 minutes of usage, phone had only charged to just under 90% when I first checked the battery stats.

I can't turn on bluetooth. Bluetooth setting shows "Turning Bluetooth on..." for about 3 minutes and nothing.

flash back to other rom

How do you flash back to another rom? Every time i go through usb to adb it tells me the phone cannot be found? Is there another way? My s is on so I have to flash through adb, I went through the regular flash method and it prompt for an update through zip.... any suggestions?
[HTC EVO 3D] malicon:
You need to use FlashImage GUI. adb isn't going to work unless you use a different kernel which you would have to use flashimage GUI for as well...

---------- Post added at 06:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:05 PM ----------

did that, this happened after i did the recovery image thru flashimage gui. i did my wipe and went and did a nandroid recovery... everything went smooth until reboot. Now I am at the white Htc screen and won't go past it. Like in my other post, I was told to use the flashimage, I cannot get to it. Using Hboot sends me to an update screen but no other options.

quick question is there any one radio that will show better performance on this ics build. from what I read none of the radios that we currently have are "compatible" with ics. Though I must admit I get higher speeds with this than I did previously must be a fluke since I dont believe the ROM can affect such things.

Question on how to flash this while on HBoot 1.5.

Forgive me if this question is remedial, but this is my 1st flash of an ICS Rom. What is protocol/procedure to flash this on HBoot 1.5 and is there anything else that should be flashed along with the AlphaX.zip?
[HTC EVO 3D] nolimit78:
It's the same with every other rom.

Using adb:

adb reboot bootloader
fastboot boot recovery.img

And then flash.

You could try using FlashImageGUI but I have terrible luck with it so ADB for me is the way to go.

Agreed. I love the concept of FlashGUI, but find when switching from 3.0 to 3.5 adb works best... Thanks for your help! :D
