Wait until you see what I'm currently working on.. ;)

It's in the testing phases right now,.. prolly see a release in a couple weeks. I wanna make sure I've got all the wrinkles ironed out.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bairds1:
Oh wow! Pumped!
[EVO 4G Android Development] jrny99:
nice job on this rom, if I understand , i copy the apks I want and paste them in to system/app folder, what is fix permissions ?

or do i flash the removed apk zip to the system/app folder ?

thank u
[EVO 4G Android Development] tempe38:
So far it's everything I wanted it to be. The quick settings installed just fine as did the advanced reboot menu.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jrny99:
well i got it figured out with the help of more reading, installed some of the sense widgets that i use and i'm loving it..great job again
[EVO 4G Android Development] jrny99:
would it be ok to run [MOD] Advanced Power Menu - 4.53/4.54/4.67 OTA Based Roms - 2/12/12 on this rom. ?
[EVO 4G Android Development] misery in motion:
As long as you have the deodex version, yes.

Question, what's the difference between this rom and the one here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1455371 ?
[EVO 4G Android Development] NaterTots:
The one you've linked is the Rooted version of the latest Over the Air that Sprint sent out.

The one in this thread has alot of stuff pulled out, such as the Sprint apps, Google apps, and other things sent out with the phone when new. Hence the Barebones name in the thread title.

Aps2SD is the one from dark tremors?
[EVO 4G Android Development] bairds1:
Yup, the apps2sd is from dark tremors on this rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] fqin:
This was asked a while back and I didnt see an answer, but if anyone is still have problems with the sync icon not going away, its because you need the friendstream.apk. If you add that back, it fixes the problem.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tempe38:
Cool! Uh, where do I add it back into? :confused:
[EVO 4G Android Development] fqin:
system/app folder
[EVO 4G Android Development] tempe38:
Okay, just to be clear, I copy that file to the system/app folder, run fix permissions, reboot to recovery, wipe cache and dalvik and then reboot. Is that right?
[EVO 4G Android Development] fqin:
I dont think you need to wipe cache, you definitely have to change permissions though. I added it back to the rom and reflashed because I just flashed the rom anyways, so I did it differently.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tempe38:
Wow, I've never seen this thing work so hard to fix permissions, but it's really ripping through them. I figured out from this rom just how much slower everything runs if I try moving cache/data to the SD partition, think that might be what made for some weird frustrations on others. Anyway, I'll let you know if this fixes that sync thing.

---------- Post added at 02:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:02 PM ----------

Wow, so I put the friendstream.apk on my SD card, used Root Explorer to copy it to /system/app. It wouldn't let me paste to I pushed the button at the top to change r/w to r/o, then it let me paste and I changed it back to r/w. I ran fix permissions in ROM Manager, rebooted to recovery and wiped cache and dalvik (figured why not, couldn't hurt) and then rebooted. Phone completely flipped out when booting, FC's everywhere, didn't even have my wallpaper loaded, and I remember seeing some error about my data thing needing to be deleted. Rebooted to recovery again and ran the uid fixer in AmonRa. Booted again, kept getting force closes from Swype. Threw in the towel and reloaded my nandroid from yesterday.

So, what did I do wrong? :(
[EVO 4G Android Development] fqin:
I have no idea, maybe try putting it in the \data\app folder instead. Did you change permissions on the folder or the file before copying? Think you have to change permissions on the folder before copying, then change permissions on the file after to match all the other .apk files, then change the folder permissions back. I would try putting it in the data folder instead, not sure if you can mess with the system folder after youre already running.
[EVO 4G Android Development] volk9029:
Are you using odex or deodex rom. Where is friendstream.apk com from?

Sent from my lair.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tempe38:
It's the deodex one, the apk is from the zip in the op with all the stuff that was removed from the rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] 9h0s7:
Try implementing the file into the zip and then flash.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tempe38:
Do I just copy it into the zip?
[EVO 4G Android Development] SweepinJR:
So the "DO THIS" you link to in the OP, doesn't work for me. I can get into the advanced menu, but the RSTP/HTTP setting menu won't let me in.
[EVO 4G Android Development] fqin:
copy into system/app folder of zip file and when you flash, turn off signature verification.

What's the major differences between this ROM and say, Tommytomatoe's 4.67 optimized ROM?

I've DL this one since I was using Tommy's Classic ROM and was really disappointed with the battery life.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jrny99:
Other Stuff

Something removed from the ROM that you would like to put back in? Download the appropriate file below which includes every file removed from the stock ROM. These are not flashable zips; but simply a zip archive of everything removed.

let me ask this way, how do we simply put these back in ?

thank u, noob
[EVO 4G Android Development] sandman2055:
Oh baby. After trying a bunch of Sense based ROMS, I loaded this one and got fantastic battery life. Another ROM/kernel combo I tried literally dropped 5% in 10 minutes using a reader program and all radios off.

This ROM has me at 40% after 39 hours. Fantastic.

[EVO 4G Android Development] jonny4:
Any updates, I have gotten 3 pop ups from HTC saying I need to upgrade my software.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bairds1:
Misery - still working on that next update? Excited to see what's coming up! - Cheers!
[EVO 4G Android Development] misery in motion:
Hey everyone. I wanted to stop in and apologize for not being around much lately, providing support, answering questions, chit-chatting, etc. etc. Life's gotten a little hectic lately and I haven't had much, if any, time to devote to developing and what not.

I'm a professional poker dealer and the casino I work at is losing a dealer. The poker room manager decided to divvy up hours instead of bring in a new dealer. On top of that this is the time of year where business starts to really pick up.

To sum it up I've been working a lot more hours. It's exhausting work. Not because of the activity of dealing cards, but because of the amount of people I have to associate with. Emotionally it's very exhausting lol.

Anyway, I am still around and am still active. I decided to hold off on releasing the new barebones edition I was working on. I completed the final build and testing went great. However, I realized it wouldn't appeal to the masses. Reason being it is an ultra-stripped ROM. In regards to battery life, performance and responsiveness it is top-notch and super-stable. I ran it for over a week without a single reboot and it still ran slicker than greased moose poop.

So what's the downside? All the niceties and conveniences have been stripped out. The rom is extremely lightweight. The zip it just a touch over 100 MB. Basically it's just the bare OS with the Google Services Framework left intact. All the "flashy" stuff was 86'd. I removed some 30+ megs of "junk" over and above my currently released barebones rom. Think smartphone with all the smart removed lol.

So in saying, I don't think many people would find it useful unless you are an elite minimalist like myself that cares more about functionality and performance over convenience and aesthetics.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sandman2055:
I am a elite minimalist! If I want eye candy, I'll go watch a movie or play a game on my desktop computer with a massive dedicated graphics card.

I want my phone to be fast, do what I ask of it without having to go off and think about it for a few seconds, run apps quickly, have outstanding battery life, and of course to make some calls.

Your newer even-more-stripped-down ROM sounds like a winner to me. If it's stable, think about releasing it, not for the masses, but for the elite minimal purists.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tempe38:
If you're getting popups to upgrade, you probably aren't on the latest release. The OP has been updated to 4.67 base, which is the latest from HTC.

Just to let everyone know I'll have it up tonight. Sorry it took so long! It's ready now but I have to head to work and don't have the time to upload and link it right at this moment unfortunately. "Tonight" may mean early early morning, just depends when I get off.

[EVO 4G Android Development] lovekeiiy:
thanks for the upload. I like that I can add the extra I want if I want. I really disliked having all that stuff and no really good way to get rid of it. Although Titanium did a pretty job overall with that task.

Although, has anyone tied any of the other kernals with the barebones? I tried Poonsense (TeamWin) and didn't seem to boot with it.

I'm going to start out by saying that this is not for me. I put this ROM on a friends phone who wants it to be very stock.

So... he wants the old Sense (2.0?) widgets for Calendar and Favorites. I don't even see them when I go to "Get More Widgets". Anyone know where I can download them?

[EVO 4G Android Development] cahiatt:
I've been using this a while and like it. So far very stable. Clean. Not a lot of junk. The only issue I have had is trying to get Google Talk to work. I actually use that a lot and the video chat with my kids on their home computer from my phone. It just force closes on this rom.

Anyone have the same issues or is there a specific version of GTalk that works with this rom?

Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] jonny4:
Ok, I am just trying to re-install this for a few weeks before I get my new phone.

I used this guide to root the phone, then I replaced Clockwork with Amon Ra and then I used this guide to partition the sd card and then I installed the rom.

After the first guide to get root I had super user installed on the sd card and busy box installed on the phone and I had full root access. After partitioning and installing the rom I had super user installed on the phone and busy box but no super user in the root area, is this ok? I am a nOOb so be gentle, if I did do it wrong can someone guide me where I messed up and do it right.

[EVO 4G Android Development] misery in motion:
Yes. After flashing this you would need to reflash your custom sense kernel.

If it is not in the stock ROM then it is not in this one. Nothing was added, only removed. :)

Will it work? That I am unsure of..

I have re installed google search, but it is not functioning with my search button (it doesn't do anything as far as I can tell). Is there a way to enable it?

Edit: Also, is there a way to get the voicemail app back?

[EVO 4G Android Development] misery in motion:
I'm sure there is a way to re-associate it with the soft key but unfortunately I am unsure of how to do so. Sorry.

The voicemail app can be reinstalled, I'll attach the apk to this message. It's the old version tho, I don't have the new version at hand.

Thanks for checking it out.

I'm not sure what you're ask for exactly. the music and calendar apps were left intact in this ROM. Peep (HtcTwitter.apk) was removed. What's the need for a flashable file for them? I'm not sure I understand.

You're better off to just reflash the ROM.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Smidgers:
VVM apk worked great. It prompted me for the update and is good to go now.

Missing the bells and whistles from Classic. But if I can get even close to 2 days battery with regular use it would be enough to stay! Lol.

I'll keep checking in to see if anyone else has a fix for the search button.
[EVO 4G Android Development] misery in motion:
Glad it worked.

Yeah I'm sure there is someone out there that knows how to do it.

Just a thought.. I'm curious if the apk was pushed to the \system\app directory and then a data wipe was performed if that would fix it. I have no idea if it would.. just a curious thought.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Smidgers:
Can you post the apk and I'll try? Do I just copy it to that directory using root explorer? Then reboot into recovery and wipe data, reboot?
[EVO 4G Android Development] misery in motion:
If you downloaded the app from the market then you should already have the current apk. It'll be in your \data\app directory if I'm not mistaken. And yes just put the apk in the \system\app folder. Then in recovery just a "factory reset/data" wipe.

If you give it a try let me know how it goes. I'm curious to know the results.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Smidgers:
That seems to have done the trick

Edit: long press still not working
[EVO 4G Android Development] misery in motion:
Right on good to know. As for the long press issue I have no idea.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Smidgers:
I pushed the Voice Search by Google apk (not Google Voice) to system/app and that resolved the long press search issue as well. Thanks for your help.

When apps are placed in system/app, does the market recognize them and notify of updates? That was my first time moving apks there and seems like it could save a bunch of time during fresh installs by moving my common apps there.
[EVO 4G Android Development] misery in motion:
Glad I could be of some help. As far as I know yes they are updatable via the market. I know that apps that come preinstalled are. I don't know if that holds true if you place just any app in there though. I suppose it doesn't hurt to try.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Smidgers:
I asked this over on your mod/hack/tweak thread also. But will those work on this ROM? OP says this is odex, but the other thread says they are for deodex.

Thanks for your assistance.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Smidgers:
nevermind previous post. Question answered in other thread.
[EVO 4G Android Development] misery in motion:
De-Odex is now up. FYI: Be sure to allow it to boot at least once before appling those mods, or you may run into problems. That's just how it is unless mods are cooked into a rom. Anytime you wipe keep that in mind. Sometimes mods cause a bootloop if a de-odex'd rom hasnt had the chance to initialize.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Smidgers:
Deodex works great.

Copied my common apps to system/apps. All installed automatically, worked great and are showing in market under my apps.

Installed 6 different mods wiping cache and dalvik each time and have had no issues.

Thanks for the help!
[EVO 4G Android Development] misery in motion:
Glad everything is working well. What I meant by the wipe issue is if you do a data wipe. Cache wipes are fine. Data wipes will sometimes cause issues.

Anyway, glad I could be of service! :)

Anybody else have problems installing some apps like the Wells Fargo Banking app, or Endomondo Sports tracker?
[EVO 4G Android Development] misery in motion:
I personally haven't had any problems installing any apps. What's happening exactly when you try to install those apps?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Smidgers:
I have recently installed and used the odex and de odex version and have not had any issues with installing apps. But, I have not tried either of the apps you are referencing.

Edit: I AM having issues with a couple apps on de odex version.

Tweetdeck - I was unable to find it on market, and backup of apk would not install. Thought it was just a coincidence in timing and the devs pulled the app or something crazy like that.

Tune In Radio: This installed fine, but when I try to open a station, it gives an error and does not connect.

I just flashed over to Classic and both work just fine.

Tweetdeck is not an issue because I'm starting to like Seesmic. But Tune In could be a deal breaker. I need my daily dose of Dave Ramsey! Is this something you are willing to look into even though you aren't actively developing this ROM?

[EVO 4G Android Development] misery in motion:
So you're just having probs with just the de-odex version? Am I understanding that correctly or is odex having issues with those apps too?

I honestly have no idea why some apps are installing and working fine and others are not with my rom. I have not run into a single problem with any and all apps I use.

I apologize to those that are running into issues.

As this is just my personal build and has worked flawlessly for my needs I don't really have any plans to go in depth troubleshooting these issues. This rom wasn't meant to be a public release, so it's here just so others can play around with it.

I'm happy to help as much as possible and do what I can.. but currently I'm at a loss on these app issues. I really don't know what the cause of the problems are. I encourage everyone to brainstorm tho and see if we can come up with some solutions. I'd apprecaite any feedback from other developers out there that are more experienced than I am.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Smidgers:
I understand that you didn't intend for this to be a publicly released ROM. So, any assistance you can provide is greatly appreciated!

The issues with those apps only began when I started using the de odex version (I also flashed several mods prior to actually doing anything with the ROM).

I have really enjoyed this being stripped down as much as it is and building up from there. If nobody can help resolve this, I'll probably go back to Classic. No hard feelings, but would prefer to stay with this if possible.
