not sure what is going on with my evo, but issues persist. I tried switching to wimax and 3g, and wimax works great, but still can't update the prl and profile... same error code 68. I haven't seen a 3g signal yet. only 1x and I have been in 5 different areas today in Dallas metro area. I don't even know if this is a problem or not. It still connects to the internet, but seems slower than the previous update. Wifi flies and 4g flies. One more thing has anyone tried to fix permissions with Rom Manager? I can not get to the DONE screen RBOOT. Only fix uid in recovery works for me. Are they the exact same thing?

Love the red theme and want this rom to be my daily rom.

I reflashed the rom from step one. when it booted up, the 1x was still there, so I took your advice. it did the trick. thanks a bunch. also got prl and profile to update as a result. thanks again. I think I am closer to having this rom work the way it seems to be working for most of the users. I really appreciate OD too. I'm sticking with this rom. it is too good to quit on.

New MAJOR ROM UPDATE Tommorrow!!

Ok, so that is COMPLETELY correct. I screwed the pooch on this one, sorry. I have been down all night for some really good reasons, this one being one of them.

I have fixed tons and tons of tiny "bugs", but more like quirks with theming and kernel swaps. Some kernels were breaking shortcuts for some people. Some theming I messed up on slide to swipe. Everything is fixed as far as that is concerned, but I have also added some better elements to the install. Now it is more customizable, but easier to figure out EXACTLY what you want to do with the install, no hope you got it syndrome. I have NO errors and everything works with no bugs as I have found. I have tested the main things:

1.shortcuts on lockscreen 2.wifi 3. data. 4. 4g 5. theme swap 6. kernel swap 7.boot animation swap

Everything is working and I am testing stability with the different kernels for the next day. I want you guys to get the best. This is my project and I am not holding back. I listen to you and see what is wrong and right. You are gonna love the new tweaks and customizations.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jkt97401:
Thanks OD! You know all of us here riding the Express love your work, we all know that everyone makes mistakes.

Awesome!! Thanks man!! I haven't had any major problems as of yet bro, but will keep you posted if I find one.

One question though, say someone wanted to change the text on the drop for the notifications, or the top bar for the notifications, where is that found? Also, I want to try and make a custom bottom dock, say with a picture instead of the grey...where is that located?

Last question, lol, on the phone keypad, how can I make them more transparent to show the background pic better?

[EVO 4G Android Development] qbanways:
I checked this out for my self since I use the weather widget alot. It wasnt working so I removed it and went to put the weather widget again but it kept force closing. Apprently it's a rosie issue. So I cleared cache on the weather app and rosie utility and when I went to my homescreen, all rosie widgets were gone. I went to the widget section to see if I can add them, and they were not there either... I restarted my phone and cleared cache and davik cache, still nothing...

I'm going to have to reflash the phone damit...

There is a still alot of issue's with the rosie application. It's not just the lockscreen.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Captain_Throwback:
I am also seeing this issue. Clicking the arrow at the top of the widget that's supposed to open the Friendstream app also does nothing.

Another one is the "Frequent" tab in the app drawer doesn't display any apps.

Did you try running a2sd reinstall in Terminal Emulator?

u make good roms, that i love, BUT my memory is real low 29% and also with the Bliss HD rom both slow and memory hogs....cant even add my apps...............dont know what im doing wrong?
[EVO 4G Android Development] One_Shot_2012:
BEFORE

you add any apps back on, there are a ton of add on apps that you can erase, or move to your SD. What I did, and has worked for me, was add app2sd first, only restore about 3-5 apps at a time, and move them to the SD card as soon as they reload. I know it seems like alot of work, but worth it!!

Also, are you restoring all your data, sms, mms, etc as well?

Hope this helps
[EVO 4G Android Development] gmassucco:
First of all you have to realize that your phone was not designed for Sense 3.0 or 3.5. The new phones that have it, have more then double our internal memory. That being said, if you follow the instructions in the begining correctly, you will have plenty of memory if you partition your sd card correctly. Not a ton of extra memory, but enough. Also if you have a bunch of apps installed, your memory will be low. I have run both this ROM and Bliss and I have plenty of memory. I don't want to sound like a douche bag, but if you read the thread, all these questions have been explained and answered already, so if you don't like the ROM or don't want to read how to install it correctly, go back to the stock ROM. These devs work hard to hook us up with updates we would never get, so relax. Besides, these ROMS are BETA. Sorry for venting, but I keep seeing the same post of people complaining about things that have already been explained several times in the thread. Just watch, the same memory question will pop up 3 or 4 pages pages from now if not earlier. Please people, read.... Great job on this ROM. No memory issues here or with Bliss for me.
[EVO 4G Android Development] outerdepth:
Hey there,yeah that is an issue I ran into making the widget. I can either make it work right and cutoff the inner text on the right just a hair, or I can make it look right but not function 100%. I have had it this way for months and finally someone noticed. I'll make a flashable with this working fully later. It's not anything you did wrong, so don't try to fix it.

Also, I can add the weather 4x4 widget to any screen, but it tv's when trying to add the small weather widgets.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nYdGeo:
Just flashed latest version and its very nice. I haven't experienced the issues that some have, but do have a few questions.

First, I know that with Android, having a bunch of free memory is not necessary. We simply need enough. However, in the settings its set to warn about low memory at 10MB free, however, it obviously loses its mind at 40MB or so and will not stop badgering me about it. Is there a way to make that stop?

This is probably an old one and I believe that the answer is no, but does moving the dalvik cache from the /cache partition to the SDExt partition free up 'internal memory'?

Finally, this is something that I've seen in a number of ROMs out there. I find this ROM to be more than snappy enough to be a great 'daily driver', however the SD Card access is a bit slow. I checked the file and the read_ahead_kb is set to the Android default of 128KB. However, there is an init'd script designed to set this value to 512KB. Obviously, this script is not working.

I looked further, and found that the current Dirty Ratio setting that the ROM is using is 95, bu ton the "S97ramscript" file it specifies a Dirty Ratio value of 90. The current Dirty background Ratio is 60, but the script specifies 5. The current VFS Cache Pressure is 50, while the script specifies 10.

The current Dirty Background Ratio and VFS Cache Pressure are more appropriate for this ROM anyway, and 90-95 for the Dirty Ratio is fine, too. But it appears to me that at least some of the values specified by the init.d scripts are not being applied.

I set the read_ahead_kb value to 2048 using ROM Toolbox and everything is good. I'm just curious as to whether anyone knows what is causing this to occur.

Thank you for your time.

Im coming from deck 1.3 where I had a2sd configured on ext4 partition. After I flashed this rom, when I execute a2sd reinstall to get my apps back, it says sd card not mounted. What am I doing wrong? This is my first time using a different rom after initially setting up a2sd on deck1.3. TIA.
[EVO 4G Android Development] volk9029:
You need to partition to ext3. When you flash the rom dark tremor a2sd activated by itself on flash, that is why the phone reboots 3 times. You don't need to activate it.

[EVO 4G Android Development] fadi33:
And I presume I can't go from ext4 to ext3 without formatting the entire sd card right.

Any reason this rom doesn't support ext4? I thought that was the best type of ext format?

OD, you know how much I love your ROM's and maybe I am getting ahead of the game, but are there any plans to port your Sense UI over to an ICS build? I know the new EVO is supposed to be ICS with Sense 4.0, just wondering if this is gonna be in the future of the OG EVO and does the OG EVO have enough processing power to run something like that. This ROM and Bliss both rock, but I am always pushing the envelope for the absolute latest and greatest. Thanks for all your hard work.

maybe i did something wrong but this is the slowest responding ROM i have used so far. it takes forever to do anything.

Anybody getting Sense or Weather errors when they use the Underworld w/ SBC kernel? Seems this kernel does the best battery wise for me but having to force close these errors is getting annoying. Anthrax works perfectly but my battery drainage seems much quicker then with the Underworl kernel.
[EVO 4G Android Development] outerdepth:
sounds like you did not follow the op, or you are using a non stock kernel. A little more info would be handy.

You seriously need to let any rom settle for a few days or kernel before you determine battery quality and speed. They have to create statistics to work correctly and that takes time.

We'll see ;-)
[EVO 4G Android Development] timreams:
definitely used the instructions in the OP.

i was already using the correct Amon Recovery, downloaded ROM

moved to Root of SD (this is all pretty much the basics of any ROM)

already had the SDcard partitioned from my previous ROM (do i need to format and repart. everytime?)

booted to Recovery, wiped userdata\factory x2 (always do this x2)

wiped cache x2

wiped dalvik x2

picked the zip, started the install and was presented with AROMA

dont remember the options i chose in AROMA aside from the underworld w/sbc kernel and the red theme and swap boot image.

waited for completion

rebooted
[EVO 4G Android Development] outerdepth:
Ok, sounds like what I thought. It is kernel related. I tried out all of the kernels offered. This kernel you use also performed slowly for me. Try another

on a side note my 4g performance seems to be better on your ROM. normally i only get 1 bar at work. since installing your ROM i have held 2 bars pretty steadily. definitely big thanks for that.

I agree, I tried the stock kernel, and then one of the other SBC kernels, and now Anthrax, which has out performed the others. Not sure on battery life yet, but I have chargers everywhere ie my house, car, work so im not trippin off that. Question though, I don't use all 8 screens, but I don't see an option to get rid of any. I only need like 3 to 5 screens. Actually make that 2 questions. I downloaded Beautiful widgets, and the home clock is coming up smaller then it should and left justified. The only time in the past I have noticed something like this is on an ICS rom where I changed the screen grid from 4x4 to 5x5. Again, I don't see a way to adjust it. OD, hit me up bro cause other then those two things which i'm sure are correctable, this ROM is the nicest, best themed, most responsive ROM I have tested. IT IS THE SH$T.

The widget needs to be resized due to all the resizing done to make the rom work. I don't believe you can delete home screens. Only in sense 3.5 I think. OD might be able to fix the widget for you if you upload the apk and ask nicely.
