OD - I know you are feverishly working on the Landscape features, but I do have a question.

Just for understanding's sake, how does the landcape feature work, how is it sized? I know you've based the ROM from a tablet, and I haven't seen one of those in the wild, so I can't comment on their operation. It it possible to change the size of the landscape mode, such as to fill the screen (eventually)? I realize in doing so things wouldn't necessarily fit right since you are merely compressing the portrait screen, but what about rotating the icons and widgets in place? Basically going from a 4 x 4 workspace in portrait TO 4 x 4 in lanscape as follows:

A B C D

E F G H

I J K L

M N O P

to landscape if rotated 90 deg CCW

D H L P

C G K O

B F J N

A E I M

I hope that makes sense. EDIT - it's hard to show cause the extra spaces I put in are removed.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jr71x:
About 40 hours battery life, I'm freakin stoked! Kick ass ROM plus battery??? Thanks OD;-)
[EVO 4G Android Development] outerdepth:
Man, you have one fundamental issue that is not gonna work into your math, this rosie is carousel. That means that the side panel homescreens you seen in landscape view take up space in the overall screen environment. This isn't just like reworking the cell space, which you can do, and I have done now to get the workspace better tuned. There are a lot of ins and outs with the math and the way this rosie operates. I see why we have yet to see a rom like this on our phones until now;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] thebbbrain:
I see. I was just curious as to the reasoning behind the carousel style vs the full screen style. This style is definetly eye catching.

Thanks for your work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Ramondel:
OD,

I understand the difference between the ROM's, I know that Energy is not landscape as a matter of fact the only thing they have in common is the rosie carousel. I let the ROM settle for a week with no other flashing going on. You make the statement about Anthrax Kernel but I can remember that you originally had this as a default kernel. I can not send you a screen capture of the battery usage because I am currently just running Energy and it will not take a screen capture. But I am sitting at 64% with 9h 6m 23s with display @35%, cell standby@29% and phone idle@26%. I am not trying to slam your ROM, as I stated I love this ROM, it is just not working for me right now, but I will be back to it next week when I am no longer on call and rely on ensuring that I have a solid phone should I get any calls.
[EVO 4G Android Development] JITucker:
I just wiped the phone then reinstalled the ROM and added the music folder and it works. Not sure what happened but its all good now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Luisit0:
as long as u have status bar icons, pulldown icons, messages, phone, dialer, contacts and all menu selections in red, u got the theme flashed right. I still have some things to theme here n there :o
[EVO 4G Android Development] the_plattypus:
OD uses Anthrax, but not the test version. Chad has labeled this test version test for a reason. Please report this info to him, but I have already talked with him on it. I can personally say that the battery usage is better than stock and compares to most other roms. I have been testing batt usage for about 10 days. Under little use, <10% wake time, my current test is at 73 hrs with 14% remaining. Previous tests = 50% and > 75% have shown great results. 36 hrs and 22 hrs respectively. Wake time includes equal parts video streaming over WiFi and over 3g, script that browses websites for 5 min every 55min. And a solid 10 min screen on time per hour. Trying to simulate normal usage as much as possible. I will post more details once testing is done.

I am having problems with the friendstream widget forebodings the whole sense. Is their something that I am doing wrong or something else. I wiped everything three times to be safe. I also work 16 hour shifts and may have not done something rite. If anyone else is having this problem please help or what to do. Thank you in advance.

Or a post I might have missed

Transparancy in the status bar.....

I dont mind the transparency, its kinda nice, BUT when you have a white background, the transparency is useless, and cannot see the date, the time, alarm clock, etc

I shot a 20 sec video and posted on youtube so you can check it out. It only happens when there is an app with a white background in the status bar. any other color is fine.

Not sure if the youTube wraps work so here is link, also:

59% battery left, on since 0700 this morning, with minor usage everything on, but on Extended battery, standard would probably be dead lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] pedrodog69:
anthrax, that sounds killer! Lol i want some of what he has.
[EVO 4G Android Development] outerdepth:
Ok, normally I would not touch this one, but I have to let you in on something. Your pictures you posted ALONE show that you run bluetooth, wifi, have tons of alerts, full backscreen, and I am sure there are a ton of other things eating your battery. Also, you really need to search for your queries, not because it makes me mad, but you seem like you have wasted so much of your own time. You could have hit search and then typed in transparency. There are a bunch of posts about this issue. It's not an issue. I made the statusbar transparent, some apps have no background for common app icon. So, you get a white screen. On the newest 3.4.2, I changed that and made a slightly opaque transparency, so you don't have to deal with the white. Sorry you spent so much time on this one. ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] gellybelly:
lol, I actually did search the forum and didnt see anything related to the issue of a disapearing text when you get to a white background, so I opted to "show" it, waste of time, nah its never a waste of time.

oh really? This IS 3.4.2 I am running.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Captain_Throwback:
I'm starting to get bored with my OG, and I think this ROM is the only thing that can breathe life back into it. I'm about to flash back to stock, I'm so bored :eek:. I can't wait until the version with the resized Landscape workspace & working Mail widgets is done. I don't know how much longer I can hold out . . .
[EVO 4G Android Development] outerdepth:
New Version on the Horizon!!!!!!

I have gotten everything finally tweaked out, Captain. I am still trying to fine tune the workspace, although it is fine already. As far as the mail widgets, you will be happy. I have flashed new mods and wiped and fresh install, no hiccups with anything. This is gonna be RC this release. I am sorry to inform you though, I have yet to get the white background fixed in the calendar widget for the 2x1 calendar widget. I tried, it is probably a hex I need to find, but since there are so many, this is literally like finding a needle in a haystack. Everything else is good and working. I resized the weather lockscreen info also, so now those of us that live in below zero temps or temps up to the 100's will not have our current temp cut off on the weather lock. I already did this for us on the widget ;)

I will be uploading the new RC version by Friday, no later. If I can get the workspace 100% how I like it, you guys might get it a little sooner. Eventhough this ROM is nearing a RC, there are still minor tweaks and adjustments that will be made before it is ready for a final version. Hope this get's you guys ready!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] shirles:
Hory Jebus this is good news!! I just flashed 4.3.2 last night because I was having a few issues with the older version I was still running (random reboots or lockups every few days, text messages not coming through, etc). Seems to be working much better now though...battery is lasting longer, less glitches, etc.

The only things that come to mind as of now are:

-Sound Profile Widget still needs to have its white background corrected.

-That's it =D (or at least that's the only thing that hasn't already been stated a million times by someone else, like "FriendStream Force Closes when I'm logged into Twitter, help me!!!" hahaha).

I know you're on the job....pumped for Friday!

bugs

Just installed and only found a couple of problems. 1.The Bookmark widgets (both) force close and won't install. 2. 5 column app drawer will not install. 3.there are no lockscreens to choose from. I have used the Weather lockscreen and the Sensation photo lockscreen in the past with other roms.. Both of these screens are missing.Funny thing there are settings but no lockscreens.
[EVO 4G Android Development] thebbbrain:
Might have to wipe and reflash...haven't heard of these problems. Only thing that doesn't work on mine is 5 Col app drawer.
[EVO 4G Android Development] scrapir:
I've just installed this as stated. Everything seems to work great except my data connection is slower then dial up. Wifi works great and everything else seems to also expect wimax notifier witch I don't care about. Just wondering what I need to do to get my data speed back up. I did a search but didnt come up with anything.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Captain_Throwback:
WiMax Notifier works fine for me. As far as data speeds, have you tried updating your profile in Settings?
[EVO 4G Android Development] scrapir:
Just tried the profile update still the same.. Thanks though.
[EVO 4G Android Development] outerdepth:
We'll see

No reported problems with Bookmark nor have I found this issue. Wipe and reflash. 5 Column app drawer isn't fixed yet for the tweaks, I am aware of this. There will never be any other lockscreens. This locks is different than standard sense 3.0 lockscreen. Thought you might like to know.

You need to check your profile as Cpt. has suggested. No problems here. I get good 4g and with hotspot.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tboneheath:
Thanks worked like a charm
[EVO 4G Android Development] jr71x:
My 3g is killer fast, can't say anything about 4g though, it's barely here in my city... Love the blood red theme, a deep purple, black and blue would rock as well;-)
[EVO 4G Android Development] scrapir:
I updated it before is there something I need to change with it?
[EVO 4G Android Development] pitbulledEvo:
Hey OD. First off, thanks so much for the work you and your team put together! It's awesome! I have one drawback, that nobody has mentioned, so it seems. I use fancy widgets clocks a lot! I have to have an HTC based clock, from fancy widgets to match my wallpaper, color of the battery, the clock in the status bar, etc. Well the original clock that you include, looks really small in comparison to the screenshots, as far as how much space it takes up. No biggie. When I use a fancy widget it is always to the far left, with a good inch of space on the right?? Is this something that will be fixed, or is it something that isn't going to change? I'm bouncing back and fourth from shoooter E4G, express, and old school mik g 2.61 has been my daily for a month or so. I really am amazed at this rom, but my OCD with the Fancy clock widgets gets me. It also doesn't center youtube, or the google search widget? Thanks, and sorry if I missed where this was discussed!
[EVO 4G Android Development] scrapir:
I think the clock is smaller because this is from a tablet rom. I could be wrong but I noticed that also. Center stuff is a bit off on mine too. I really like the rom but having problems with data. I had mikG on and it's a good rom to.
[EVO 4G Android Development] pitbulledEvo:
Yeah that makes sense, but on the screenshots in the OP it looks as though it fills the entire screen? I am pretttty sure that wasn't a screen shot from the tablet this was ported from. I might be wrong. I am flashing back to this right now just to see if my OCD can deal with not having to change clocks via fancy widgets anymore, until this is addressed. What types of problems are you having with data?? Thanks for the reply btw.

---------- Post added at 03:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:24 AM ----------

Another thing, the personalize key is supposed to have the option to set it up to launch any application?? I might have missed that discussion, but in the sense options, its definitely there? I will play around with it for a few more days, and maybe this Friday, all will be good in express land! I have to admit, the landscape lockscreen just looks freaking cool. A mini tablet is a great port idea! There's so much incredible "First done" tweaks to this rom, it makes me not want to report any "Bugs, or off centered widgets."

I just started getting the error message insufficient space all of the sudden when trying to install new apps??? I'm going to reflash and see what happens.
[EVO 4G Android Development] outerdepth:
Hey there. You are always gonna have trouble with market widgets being centered. I have had to resize every widget that is included with this ROM, so in order for your market widgets to be centered, they would have to be resized. In addition, the rosie remappable button tweak is designed for the standard sense 3.0 rosie, not our rosie, sorry about that. I cannot remap that key with tweaks. The new update will have the clock resized better as well. You are gonna see a lot of visual effects that have been improved upon. I am on day 2 of testing this new version before upload and battery is doing well, so it looks like we are all systems go.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vel7wil:
OD....have to say I've only been rooted since 12/28/11 and this was probably the 3rd rom I tried out back when it was first released and I have seen it continously get better and better to the point its my daily driver...Great job and you and the team....and waiting for the RC version like everybody else.......U DA MAN!!!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] leon sprouse:
Dialer help Please

I just came across the Go Dialer EX with the ICS theme which is really nice. I want to put it on the rosie as my main dialer but I cannot remove the stock phone app from the rosie. Does anyone know how to do this ? Or maybe make Go dialer EX. the default/ main phone app and even remove the regular application from the phone.
[EVO 4G Android Development] accessing:
I think you need the go launcher to use it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] owtlawatv:
4G does not work for me...

When I turn it on, it just says disconnected.

Any suggestions?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jaymaj:
This is the one main reason I don't use this as my daily. Great ROM, but widgets are too small right now for a standard phone. The other issue I had is VVM still is not working. I tried every fix out there.

Any one have success loading this on a gTab? Would love to play around with it on a tablet.
[EVO 4G Android Development] pitbulledEvo:
Thanks for explaining why the market apps won't work. That makes much more sense now. I can live with the stock clock, it's fine. I definitely want this to be my daily driver, so I flashed it again last night to familiarize myself with it. As for the personal button not being mappable, not a big deal either, because we already have 3 additional spots in the rosie for apps anyways. Thanks again for an awesome Rom!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] vel7wil:
I'm by far no expect but try to restart...if that doesnt work you my need to reflash the rom...hope that helps
[EVO 4G Android Development] shirles:
I had this problem too...after flashing I updated my profile, then restarted, and then it worked just fine. Hope that works for you too =)
[EVO 4G Android Development] outerdepth:
These 2 ideas are what you need to try in order to fix the problem. Start here and see what happens.

Hey guys, tell me what you think about the new dialer and keyboard. I am considering using these on the new version coming out later this week.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Notorious:
i like :D:)
[EVO 4G Android Development] ix3u:
Well I absolutely HATE using the stock keyboard (I use swift key) but that does look pretty bad-ass
[EVO 4G Android Development] vel7wil:
I'm digging that look....thought the phone now was great....this steps it up
[EVO 4G Android Development] Knightbird68:
Will the devs ever come out with "Updates Packs"? :-) Would be nice to be able to update without having to redo everything.

:-) All in all, I love this rom! fast, smooth, stable.

1 minor issue is battery life...the other is i don't seem to be able to select anything on the "Left-center" or "Right Center" of the 'focused panel' when the phone is in landscape mode.
[EVO 4G Android Development] gruesomewolf:
I cant speak for all devs....but the reason I personaly do not do "Update Packs" is its great for the people using, but not the new people. Why should a person who is just wanting to try out a rom for the first time have to flash multiple zips to get one fully working ROM. I guess there is just no way to make everyone happy.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bkir72:
These look great. It seems like the keyboard has a purplish look, any way to darken it up a bit to match the blue on the dialer? It'd be cool to ditch my betterkeyboard app and use yours instead.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jr71x:
They look very nice... Thumbs up;-)

About battery life... Let the Rom settle in. Also usage statistics change the drainage of a Rom. I know this Rom is more than able to survive a normal days use. I average 22-24 hours with moderate use. Below are max life tests of the Rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nunk74:
Can't wait for the update!

The keyboard and dialer looks cool. I just can't get away from my Swype keyboard. Makes it so much easier to type while driving. ok not really driving but being at a light or trying to text really quick at work when I'm not supposed to be on my phone.
[EVO 4G Android Development] the_plattypus:
What are you doing when it shutdown? What kernel are you using? Please provide more info
[EVO 4G Android Development] Knightbird68:

I guess that makes sense. :-) And it's not that I'm NOT happy.. I am. Just wondered about 'OTA' updates or something like Virus was trying to do with Synergy.
[EVO 4G Android Development] leon sprouse:
this dialer and also the keyboard really have a subdued beauty, both have a understated class. I hope you use them both.

Ok, I actually had this happen to me twice since I started deving for this ROM. Let me tell you what I was doing that made this happen. I had flashed my phone about 20 times that day, I had it plugged in to my usb on my pc the entire time for charging and pushing files constantly over and over and over. I was using wifi hotspot and downloading and talking on the phone. It got really really hot and caused the phone to reboot. This is the ONLY time I have ever seen this occur. So unless you are trying to murder you phone like I do. Then, you probably are ok. I cannot see any reason this would ever occur other than over the top heavy phone usage.
