Sorry, guys. Had Family stuff last night,couldn't upload

I fixed the trash. I had family stuff going on last night and couldn't post this update yet. I am tweaking the resources.apk right now as we speak. The rom is already done. I just want to skin this one thing and I will upload. Today is the day.

Can't wait
[EVO 4G Android Development] almony8:
Awesome, I'm anxiously awaiting the update :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] storm68:
awesome, patiently awaiting :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] outerdepth:
I am uploading the rom now. Gimme an hour and it'll be in your hands. I finished most of the theming that needed to be done. Let me know what you think. New dialer, new resources, new framework.
[EVO 4G Android Development] storm68:
How about the widget resizing..
[EVO 4G Android Development] ruben1221:
I may have to do that as well. I have the same problem. The camera on this ROM works really well, imo.
[EVO 4G Android Development] outerdepth:
I feel you on this, but c'mon guys. How often do you really need to change those shortcuts? Once I make them, they stay. I mean you already have shortcuts on your lockscreen, widgets, and icons. I understand the need to customize everything, but this is just the way things are gonna be. So, you know, it's not because of the workspace, that we have this issue. It is all about porting a ROM from a tablet to your phone. You wouldn't believe what I went through to get the trashbin working.

Yeah, anytime you theme a ROM, there is going to be some slight lag in it. This ROM is so fast, that it is virtually unnoticeable. The reason why is that the images for stock are simple and easy for the screen to draw. The new images that are prettier are more on the system, obviously.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Notorious:
I flashed when it first came out. Played around then noticed it wouldn't let me change them after playing around so it wasn't a big deal to me just to wipe and reflash
[EVO 4G Android Development] dvtmg704:
Great ROM
[EVO 4G Android Development] mkc90:
Okay it ain't a big deal I was just trying to point it out. ...

The ROM its really working great and fast .

Battery life its alright Idk if I can do anything to make it better. When I woke up this morning I used battery calibration app and calibrated my battery. After I unplug the charger I used my phone for like 5 min and it dropped 10%..anybody having any issues or kinda bad battery life .
[EVO 4G Android Development] Notorious:
That is because of the lack of a sbc kernel. Without sbc the once the phone hits 100% it stops charging and recharges back to 100 and the cycle continues. So even if it says 100 it will most likely not be at 100. With sbc the kernel keeps it charged at all times at 100 so you noticed that big help in battery life
[EVO 4G Android Development] mkc90:
Oh okay i see and are you using any apps ,scripts anything for your battery life ?.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Notorious:
Not on this I have it downloaded but I'm loving ota rom atm
[EVO 4G Android Development] the_plattypus:
I would also recommend letting the battery configuration play out over a couple of days before making an assessment on the battery life associated with any ROM. There are many guides on what to do for battery life. I personally recommend an independent battery wall charger and not charging VIA usb.

Edit: if you want the charger and batteries on the cheap, grab the touch pro 2 stuff, its the same as EVO 4G just cheaper

RE: changing the shortcuts

You shouldn't have to reflash the entire ROM just to change them. Clearing the data for HTC Sense should restore your workspace to the default configuration with no shortcuts. Then you can add whatever ones you want again.

this is what I use for sbc.... the external charger does the sbc for you :)

Obvious question, but have you rebooted yet?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Ramondel:
Hey guys what I had to do was add an APP to the first block and then select one of the other blocks and add an app, the first app will move to the fourth spot and the newly added one will be placed in the second spot. You can then add an app to each of the remaining spots I had no issues doing this.
[EVO 4G Android Development] rhunt56:
I can't get the lock screen be disabled. I click on NONE and it just goes back to previous menu but it still is Enabled.

Obvious question, but have you rebooted yet?

In Personalize, the Lock Screen option gives me Rosie and Shortcut Lock Screen. Shortcut Lock Screen FC's every time I try to edit an icon.

Rosie let's me edit the icons and Save but then it never uses that Lock Screen but the apparent Shortcut Lock Screen.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Admiral2145:
the charger does sbc

if you allready have an extra battery or batteries, the charger does trickle charging aka sbc. So you dont need a sbc kernel to use sbc... Plus these batteries last me around 18 hours stock battery would give me 8 at best...
[EVO 4G Android Development] Ramondel:
If you read the note on OP it states not to use the Shortcut lock screen to change the Icon, you have to use the Rosie for that, yes it FC, you only use this to set the weather on lock screen. In the Rosie option you select the icon you want to change and then select the app. I have not had any issues with this. You could also check in the O Tweaks Sense and see what lock screen you have selected.
[EVO 4G Android Development] VeNoM0713:
I just installed this ROM and am having a couple issues. I did a completely fresh install with a freshly partitioned SD card also. for whatever reason, i cannot add the HTC calendar widget to any tabs on my home screen. also, i cannot change the clock to another style. the process keeps force closing. and lastly, where did the HTC calculator widget go? anyone know where i can get that? besides these few hiccups, it looks like a very nice ROM!

What kernel is better anthrax or the new ota kernel for this ROM I need some input people thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] mkc90:
So all I need to buy its the charger or the batteries too ?.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Admiral2145:
nope

just buy the charger, takes about 1 hr to go from 0-90% but the last 10% is around 2-3hrs LoL
[EVO 4G Android Development] mkc90:
How much you think the charger is ?
[EVO 4G Android Development] outerdepth:
Use the Anthrax kernel. It is tons better. I know most kernels vary from device to device. I have NEVER heard anything but good stuff from people that run it. This is what I use. I tried the OTA kernel I post in this ROM now, but it's just ok. The ROM is much better with Anthrax. You should download the previous ROM version if you want it or you can just flash the Anthrax kernel after you flash this ROM and then wipe your dalvik-cache and cache then reboot. I think you will be happier with how the ROM behaves, plus the battery, wow. It was much better with Anthrax. I only removed it for the current build, but all future builds are going to have both options available for download. There will be Stock and Themed with Anthrax or New OTA kernel.

PLEASE chill on the charger talk. I am not hating on anyone, but this irrelevant to the ROM's discussion and makes it hard to find out useful info. Once again, no ill will, but this is development, not Q&A

SD

Ive been following the guides and flashing roms from this forum for awhile and never had any trouble or asked questions. But this is the first time ive dealt with A2SD.. i partitioned my 8gb sd like said in the OP by following this post http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=SD_card_partitioning because i already had the program. I put 5.49GB in the FAT32 partition and 1.91GB in Ext3 Partition. Both say primary. Then i reflashed the newest 3.1.1 and thought everything was well. But when i checked the System/sd folder i noticed the delvik wasnt moved there like it was supposed to?

Try the latest dark tremors a2sd flash that...then grab terminal emulator from the market type su(enter) then a2sd cachesd (enter) should reboot phone then everything should be fine to check it out go back into the emulator and type su(enter) a2sd check(enter)
[EVO 4G Android Development] ChaoticGuardian:
Thanks alot bro. I actually had this open in another tab and was reading it when you replied. That did the trick. Now do the apps i have already installed go to the sd automatically or just the ones i d/l from now on? do i need to do some more commands to move them?
[EVO 4G Android Development] officiallytook:
you should be all good...just check it in terminal emulator it should say user and system apps run from SD and cache on SD...

i had this problem too,i believe that the "htc Calender" restarts rosie when i try to add it to a home screen..in order for me to use the calendar widget i use the other one(not the one that has every day in a month), the one that shows what you are doing today!! try that one, it works great :)

Installing as my 6th Rom thru Boot Manager as I write this...32GB card can go a long way. Cant wait run this beast. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] bobarune:
Does the tweaks app work yet? Cause last time I flashed, they didn't. Does changing the kernel cause it not to work?

Don't think you'll be able to run it on boot manager. If you can let me know on how you did it, setup and everything.
[EVO 4G Android Development] outerdepth:
Battery and Tweaks

You probably can't boot this through boot manager directly, but you can boot the ROM once as intended, then do a Nandroid backup of the ROM and put that in your boot manager!! That will work

Hey, man. I am assuming you mean my OD Tweaks that come preinstalled on the ROM. They are written by Romanbb. He wrote these to use for the regular sense 3.0 Rosie. So, some of the tweaks that pertain to the launcher are not gonna work for this ROM. The clock and other tweaks should be good to go. I will look into the 5 row drawer and what not, but as far as button remapping, you are gonna have a tough time once again, this ain't your momma's rosie,lol. This thing is a monster to hack. So, for now, you gotta deal with what you have. Hope this helps.

Also, for those talking about battery life. This is definitely kernel related, but not just kernel related. You also have to give the phone a few days to settle in as Plattypus, a few others and I have stated. Lastly, you need to do the following trick. It is what I do when I find a ROM I am gonna stick with and not flash over. Constant ROM flashing (this is to you flashaholics) will always give you crappy or untrue battery stats. Follow these steps for best battery life:

1. Let your phone run down the battery as low as you can handle,lol. I would suggest at least down to 25-30%.

2. Charge your battery on a wall charger not usb to full capacity and then unplug it, wait for the charge light to go off, then plug the charger back in.

3. Repeat step 2 a total of 10 times. The last,10th time, you do it, while the phone is still plugged in and the light has turned green, boot into recovery.

4. In recovery, go to wipe and scroll to the bottom where it says wipe battery statistics. Wipe them. Reboot phone. Enjoy, this is as good as your battery gets
[EVO 4G Android Development] VeNoM0713:
it seems i have run into yet another problem. i can no longer save anything to my sd card.. be it pics, etc. i have 200mb free on my card and its giving me an error.

[EVO 4G Android Development] notsointeresting:
So everyones saying run the Anthrax Kernel for this ROM, which for the life of me I can not find anywhere. Could someone post a link? Sorry if it's asking too much or unrelated to the thread.

[EVO 4G Android Development] notsointeresting:
Alright now for my next probably dumb question reading through the thread the OP stated that this ROM has A2Sd baked in yet when flashing the latest beta zip for dark tremor it doesn't work (doesn't show the sd-ext partition in titanium backup) is their something I should know or is it not baked into the latest version? Thanks in advanced

Btw: I did get it to work on Salvage Mod beforehand
[EVO 4G Android Development] bobarune:
Since a2sd is baked in you don't need to flash it. If it isn't showing up you could try re-flashing the rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] outerdepth:
For Anyone With Cache Problems or Insufficient Space

Ok, download terminal emulator from the market. If you must, just reflash the ROM and do it. Then, follow these steps:

-Open up terminal Emulator

-In Terminal Emulator type su *make sure its in lowercase* hit Enter

-once rebooted go back into Terminal Emulator and type in su hit enter and then type in a2sd datasd and let it run and reboot.

-once rebooted go back into Terminal Emulator and type in su hit enter and then type in a2sd cachesd and let it run and reboot.

-once rebooted go back into Terminal Emulator and type in su hit enter and then type in a2sd cachedata and let it run and reboot.

If you are still having any of these issues, then download the file below and flash it, then repeat the above process.

[EVO 4G Android Development] outerdepth:
Check the pic. If app2sd isn't working for you, I am not sure why. Here is the image of my phone right now running the same thing anyone else here could be. This has been the way the ROM worked since Beta 1.0. Look at the bottom, where it says sd card(a2sd). So, it is there. Check your titanium backup again,lol

It's saying my SD Card isn't mounted. So I guess I am going to try and reflash the ROM once more without actually flashing the zip like the guy said above and then try it.

Yea I'm sure it's something being done out of my own stupidity, Not blaming you at all. I hope it didn't come off like that :D. Anyway thanks for taking the time to post a screenshot for confirmation, it is appreciated and also for the ROM it is very smooth.

I first have to applaud the rom, great work. The things I'm havin issues range from notification bar being transparent when it shouldn't, icon name or option menus are switchin with wrong text ie.- A notification window for loading would have "share via" in it. My WiFi is poor. I can't download some large files like toms and kernels from the device now with it failing 3/5 times. Slim app installations so it's still pretty fresh on the device.I'm goin to try to compile some screen shots to help.

So I'm still having a little trouble with ap2sd . Basically I'm wondering ...do you need to flash tkirtons zip for Dark Tremor after flashing this ROM to get a2sd to work? And does this maybe not work with EXT4 partitions? It keeps telling me that my SD card is not mounted when trying to use ap2sd reinstall command

Edit: got it figured out .it was because I had an ext4 partition.

I just flashed the latest stock version (3.2.0) and noticed that, while it does include the OTA kernel, it doesn't include the version with the Wireless N fix. Any chance you can include that next time? :)

I do have a few issues, and I'll post them, but it is nice to see the 4x1 Calendar widget shows up now (though has graphical issues). I'm still missing the Mail Widget (2/3) though (causes Sense to reboot). This ROM is so close to being everything I want: Landscape Rosie, HTML Exchange e-mails, and if Landscape Lockscreen becomes possible, this will be the last ROM I ever flash.

This morning I woke up and tried to use my phone and it went into some sort of loop between the "sharing via" screen and the HTC wallpaper. Just kept going back and forth.

Quick Settings

I noticed the quick settings show either javascript or navigate away from this page. Also the GPS option doesn't turn off the location icon in the status bar.

When using the GPS, an additional satellite icon appears next to the location icon. It seems to switch between the satellite icon and an EV icon

The phone dialer only supports landscape in car mode. Other roms that support the dialer in landscape mode seem to have an option in the settings of the dialer that enables auto rotation (this option seems to be missing, but set by the car mode app behind the scenes).

Still a great rom.
