My phone hates anthrax :( Idk, did everything but it won't past boot animation, just loops, but other kernels works though.

that stoner works at circle k
[EVO 4G Android Development] coolwater22:
how long do you take before you restart your phone when flashing anthrax. when i first flashed it i thought it was looping, but then i waited paitiently and sure enough it started..
[EVO 4G Android Development] puhiniho:
Did I miss something cause I didn't see the Express update yet? I did see the Bliss update. Sorry, I'm just excited to see the update :)

I checked both here, Android host, and customromz.com.... ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] cityneversleepz:
I don't think you missed anything. Just keep checking here. Might be something out of ODs control slowing it down.
[EVO 4G Android Development] LordAlexx:
Remember the original Anthrax thread..it said to wipe cache and dalvik before AND after flashing the kernel. If you let the Aroma installer reboot your phone after install you don't get that 2nd wipe of cache and dalvik. SOme ppl don't need it but I do. Uncheck reboot and get back into recovery after rom flash and do the 2nd wipe, it will probably load correctly then.
[EVO 4G Android Development] One_Shot_2012:
Didn't miss anything. I know one of their computers crashed halfway through theming the red, and OD was gonna try to finish it and get it up, so, more than likely, a technical issue is involved somewhere.

Patience, my dear friends especially with the roms....don't want any glitches do we?;)

If you need a flash, just flash RC2 again. Try a different kernel just for laughs. If the new release isn't up this afternoon that is what I'm doing and will give the underworld a try.
[EVO 4G Android Development] One_Shot_2012:
Telling ya'll, Anthrax is the way to go...trick is letting the Rom settle first, then flash the kernel, then let it set as well. Between the two settings, my phone will set approximately 45 min before I run setup.

Also, the new Underworld is out if you wanna try it.

Facebook battery drain?

I have noticed that 3 times now I have gone into the Facebook app, and if I turn off the screen without hitting the Home button and going back to the desktop, that my battery drains extremely fast. All three times I was at 70+%, left the screen off for about 20 minutes, and come back and my battery is all the way down to 20-30%. I don't know why, it never used to do that, but with this new update it seems to be doing this. Anyone else noticing this? If I go into Battery Useage Facebook is only listed really low (2%), but Dialer is high (20%) even though I haven't made a call today. Display is also very high, which is normal, but considering the screen was off when I put my phone down I wouldn't think that should be the case.

Also, I never used Anthrax (or any other Kernel for that matter, only did what was included in the release) before this release (since Aroma installed made it so easy), but I get a lot of Sense reboots...every other day at least. Seems to be on totally random things...once it was while sending a text, once while answering a phone call, once while trying to use the Beautiful Widgets Sound Profile shortcut.

Lastly, is everyone using an aftermarket SD Card? I am using stock and wondering if I should switch to get better performance or something (followed the SD Partition instructions and with Stock SD Card I didn't set a swap...wondering if it may help...plus it would just be a generally faster SD Card anyway being a Class 10).

[EVO 4G Android Development] cas8180:
Since everyone is now using the new aroma installer is it possible to add the sd partitioning as part of the install process this may help to mitigate some issues that people are having and help ensure the ROM installed and setup correctly?
[EVO 4G Android Development] One_Shot_2012:
+1....good idea man
[EVO 4G Android Development] dieselford:
Being that partitioning wipes the sd card it would not be wise. However, I am sure the comands could be added to the updater script. Not a good idea though. Newbs would lose their pictures and music, and whatever else they have. They shouldn't mess with it if they don't know what they are doing. IMHO
[EVO 4G Android Development] cas8180:
The other side of it is people just installing the ROM without proper partitioning then you get all these reports around low memory and performance bugs etc etc when they might not even be valid if they had there device properly partitioned and it would be very easy to add a warning message and instructions through aroma that would indicate you could lose all your data on your SD. Backup first and proceed at your own risk. It's a hell of a lot better then us just assuming they partitioned there drive properly from the get go. This tends to ne the point of GUI based installers . To walk the user through config steps to mitigate install issues.
[EVO 4G Android Development] outerdepth:
I don't think so

Hey guys, just to let you know, you couldn't partition your sd card with the installer, cuz that wipes your sd card and the ROM is on your sd card with the AROMA installer on it. So that would not be possible with the current aroma installer.
[EVO 4G Android Development] trollallot:

I don't think there is much competition here. I was on shooter... it doesn't compare IMHO

---------- Post added at 09:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:53 PM ----------

I just want to make sure before I partition my SD card. Should I be on ext 3 or 4? I was on 3 before and for some reason my apps were not moving to my SD card. Also, do I add any KB for swapping? Does any of the kernels support swapping?

Shaky Initial Boot...

In case this happens to anyone else:

When I first booted this up, it did the white "EVO 4G" screen about 3 or 4 times, coupled with the little vibration when it first pops up... I thought I was stuck in a boot loop. After the 3 or 4 times it did this, it cut to the black and blue ROM boot animation, then loaded up just fine.

PS I'm setting up my phone now, but so far everything seems silky smooth and wonderful! Thanks again OD!

[EVO 4G Android Development] PsiPhiDan:
Oh really? I was unaware of this - I've never experience it in a ROM before, and I've flashed quite a few. Does this always happen with dta2sd? Thanks man!
[EVO 4G Android Development] dieselford:
I didn't even think about wiping the zip while partitioning. This is why you're the dev OD! I am not trying to create competition. I like both Roms and devs. The challenge is for me to choose my daily. They both have there place for me personally. I'm sure OD and GW are friends and in no way competing. Got this thing running well. Great job OD! Thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Txsrooster:
Ok. After flashing the rom, it goes through the boot up and stops at the multi-color screen. The clock, battery meter, gps symbol and the "bars" are there but nothing else. Rotating the screen it will flash to "Welcome to Express...something something" and quickly back to the multi-color screen. The only active button appears to be the power button. Any ideas? I tried re-installing the screen but that supplied the same result.

I tried calling it, it does ring, but the screen does not change from the multi-color one.
[EVO 4G Android Development] volk9029:
Not always, but some roms will do that. Say Shooter or Radiance for example.

A2SD

Volk knows what their talking about. This is A2SD working. The reason you aren't used to seeing it, is because most ROMs don't have it working properly. :-)

Thanks for helping with the thread, mate.

so the updated express is so fast that your internet couldn't handle it? That's my take on it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Txsrooster:
Ok. Trying again...will let it set while I get my stuff ready for tomorrow...will report back shortly.
[EVO 4G Android Development] PsiPhiDan:
This didn't work for me. I've tried 3 times in a row now. I followed the instructions exactly as listed here, including clicking "done" at the end. If refuses to stick. Any other ways to do this?

If it matters, I DID select the "show weather" button on the "shortcut lock screen" screen.
[EVO 4G Android Development] outerdepth:
Super Sorry

That is a bad flash...FOR SURE!! I have had this exact same thing happen to the point that I thought the ROM was screwed, it turns out that I just had a overworked sd card. That was the problem. I just fully wiped the phone, then let it set for a minute, then flashed whatever version and install features, then let it set for a minute and rebooted and then was fine. I understand the frustration of being a flashaholic, lol. :-)

Don't worry, I uploaded the ROM using the internet connection from the ROM, so I can assure you everything is solid. Just try to remember this thing is a DOOZIE!!:cool:
[EVO 4G Android Development] cityneversleepz:
don't do any other work on setting it up. wipe again, and reinstall it until it sticks is what I did in the last release. It will stick, but if you've tried everything, then it is probably not going to work in this particular flash, so reflash or live with it. I personally have to have it right or I GO CRAZY. you don't have to re-download the file. it should work with the same file.

update to above: I just got the lockscreen to stick on first shot following advice about setting weather first and then going back to rosie to set the apps. now I can exhale. the rest should be a picnic.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Txsrooster:
I wiped everything again...used a old card that I formatted and everything went good this time. Was even able to set up the lock-screen shortcuts. Now it is time for bed to let it stew together.

Keyboard Theme

I didn't theme the keyboard, if enough people request I do or offer me some more incentive (cough,cough), I'll do it. Otherwise, I thought the contrast looked pretty cool.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dieselford:
Stock theme

OD, I forgot to thank you for adding the stock theme to aroma. It didn't revert the keyboard but it's all good. I think the keyboard is awesome! I'm not big on themes but the keyboard really looks good! Anyway, thank you for doing such a good job on this. I did want to ask you though, I was looking at FB last night and clicked on a link which then loaded the browser. However, when I exited back to FB and then back to the home screen I had a sense restart. Not a big deal, just wondering if you were pre-configuring the oom settings in the rom. If so maybe give the launcher a bit more priority? Not a complaint at all, just an observation. Thank you again for building such a great rom!

[EVO 4G Android Development] Cletonius:
I feel like that's a Sprint problem. We were doing the same or using Google voice just to get them at all. They wouldn't come through until we placed a call. I updated radios and even flashed the current RUU to no avail. Then I heard from my friend that his 2 non-hacked phones were having the same problems. He got a $25 credit per line, I got an etf waive after 5 calls to executive and a trip to the Sprint store. My VZW galaxy nexus comes tomorrow.

Anyway, I flashed the newest release last night and wow. Got my lockscreen fixed up and I can even dismiss calendar events now. I'm gonna miss this ROM when I switch phones. I actually like my EVO now.

+1 I've downloaded a few 3.0 sense roms and seems most of them have an inherent sms/mms problem...thought it was me at first but after checking thru a few threads I saw it pop up more and more...not sure why...but just been using ghostly sms as a backup...its a small inconvenience compared to missing an important text (since I get more of those than actual calls)....
[EVO 4G Android Development] themodifyd1:
The text situation is odd. With release two I swapped kernels and the problem went away for a bit but so far I all my messages have came through ghostly, I haven't had a single one come through regular. I agree using ghostly is a small price to pay for such a great ROM but this phone has been flashes more times than a stripper and this is the first time this has happened....

That line in the build.prob is supposed to lock home in memory so you don't get sense restarts if I recall. So changing it to 0 disables it
[EVO 4G Android Development] dieselford:
I believe the lower the number, the higher the priority. I know what you mean by enabling and disabling by using ones and zeros. I don't think it applies to this situation. Was doing some reading on zepplinrox's thread for v6 and that's how he supposedly makes the launcher bullet proof. I'm currently trying to figure out where to adjust oom values for apps. If I can set com.android.mms to -17 it will be ignored by the android task manager and never be killed. Therefore, no more missing texts.

Lock screen icons

For those having issues with the lock screen

Do this:

1.Wipe like 3 times max with full factory reset/wipe all userdata.

2. Don't run a wipeall.zip or fullwipe.zip. It messes up stuff on the sd card with this rom

3. Flash the default rom and see with no customizations.

4.Reboot, and wait for lockscreen and titlebar to show and then unlock the phone

5.Sign in to google account or whatever accounts you sign into and let the Sense load.

6.As soon as sense loads go to personalize and then select Rosie Utility and edit your shortcuts and hit done.

7.Immediately lock the phone.

I wipped 476,000 times just to make sure everything was clear. Plus ran a couple wipe all scripts. I tried EVERY suggestion in this thread with no luck.

Are you using the stock theme? I just noticed it's not working for me either. I don't think OD updated the stock SystemUI to include it. That's also probably why the text on the quick settings mostly say "Javascript".
