just flashed i must say, this rom best so far. just a quick question tho. when i booted up for the 1st time the wall paper changed to what i had on my old rom. is there anyway to get the og back or can someone post the pic. thank you so much and thanks for the great rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jkt97401:
Hey OD, I have just a small request / suggestion.

I understand that there are a lot of people who use this ROM who love the theme, but I'm sure that some of us (including myself) who prefer the stock theme.

Is there any way that you could create an update zip file that replaces the themed look with the stock look or vice versa?

This way you could spend less time and energy creating separate stock and themed versions for future updates :)

Thank you very much for your time and energy that goes into the making of this ROM.
[EVO 4G Android Development] leon sprouse:
When I first download the rom it automatically starts installing all my programs. the only ones it dosent do are ones I got off the internet etc. So I have to install these. The only problem is I cant figure how to get MyBackup Pro to only install the ones that google Market hasn't already installed. If I let MyBackup run I end up with a lot of double installs. With TB I can do only the ones I need not all.
[EVO 4G Android Development] One_Shot_2012:
If you go into MyBackUp Pro, clear data, and start the program over. When it first starts, allow it to use the toolbox extras (think that's right). When you click on restore, don't check all apps. To the left of the check box, there is a column looking icon that will drop down, and allow you to pick exactly which apps you have backed up to install, as well as your saved settings. Hope this helps!

+1 , love the rom but also agree would be great if we could get our hands on the same rom but all stock looking would be super ~ maybe as an option in Aroma installer during install or as an update zip? tkx.

I always hear people saying that Google installs then apps they downloaded. How come that doesn't happen to me? How do I get google to save my apps so they install automatically when I flash a new ROM?

Oh, don't think this ain't coming. I have a new update in store. You guys have to give me time to breathe, lol. I have new themes new kernel stuff. I have so much in store. The ROM zip may be big, but don't worry the ROM itself won't be. This is the newest of the new. I just have to iron out all the kinks. I hope you like what I made so far.

[EVO 4G Android Development] cityneversleepz:
one thing I like to do is create custom ringtones, notification sounds and alarm sounds. I drop them onto the sd card into the respective folder...ringtones, alarms, notifications. This almost always results in the xyz file showing up in the correct folder. In the case of express 2.0, it does work with Notifications, but not alarms or ringtones. I have had this issue before, so in those instances, I use ringo pro. I tried it on this update. Music folder pulls to the ringo pro and then you can initiate the sound. However, it breaks the stock music app. The stock music app ceases to recognize music in the folder. So I reflashed and fixed that. But now I am afraid to try again.

Any suggestions on where to drop Ringtones and/or Alarm files for custom sounds?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jkt97401:
You have more themes coming?

What about a stock version?
[EVO 4G Android Development] PsiPhiDan:
I can't figure out how to make the lockscreen apps customized. Help? I usually figure this kind of stuff out by playing with settings. Couldn't find one this time.

Other than that (and the mandatory theme), amazingly snappy and feature-rich ROM. Oh, I tried downloading a paid app and it kept failing. Not sure if that is ROM related or not...

I had an issue last night where I was plugged in charging while watching the Knicks game via the Sprint TV app and the phone's battery kept dieing. Any reason this would be happening? Wasn't doing it on RC1 and I do have a fairly new USB plug adapter..

This weekend

Yes, yes I do. And yes, yes I am putting out the stock themed version. I will hopefully have a stock lock ring with black clock mod also. I just need time. This weekend should help though. I am kinda working alone here. Diablo67 is working on a new red theme for us. I have all the stock stuff finished, so we are good to go. I just need to test out the kernels stuff as I stated before. Enjoy your toy until then, lol.;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] cityneversleepz:
I reflashed to fix some music issues. I just looked at the RC # in settings about phone, and it says RC1. I redownloaded the file to do the reflash. I don't think I looked at the RC # the first time I flashed so I can't say that it ever said RC2. But I know I downloaded the right file. Aroma installer and custom kernel choices were all there, but it says RC1. Funny because now I have the old lockscreen problem that wasn't there yesterday. with the original flash of the new release.

update: I think I fixed some of the problems I was having by reflashing. I got the lockscreen working. I think if at first you don't succeed, reflash. next earlier I couldn't get the ringtone and the alarm folders to find custom ringtones/alarms I created. I was going about it in the wrong order. I was adding my folders to the sd card after the flash. Now that I made the folders in advance, I was able to get the ringtone and alarm folder to find the custom stuff.
[EVO 4G Android Development] themodifyd1:

[EVO 4G Android Development] amase005:
Hey guys. I'm wondering if anyone can help. Loving this ROM but I am having problems sending MMS and recieving all my texts. No too sure if other people are experiencing this but looking for advice? I've done factory/data wipes 3x's, cache and davlik cache wipes 3x's, flashed the wipe.zip, and then reinstalled and am still getting the issue. Thanks for any help you guys can give me. I did have Smurf script installed awhile back but it messed up my phone so I deleted that. I'm assuming these scripts are erased when you do a factory reset though.
[EVO 4G Android Development] themodifyd1:
What kernel did you choose?
[EVO 4G Android Development] amase005:
I chose Anthrax and it seems to be working great for battery life. I was on Underworld before the update and was getting the same problems.

do we have to do anything to enable v6 since its baked in?
[EVO 4G Android Development] qbanways:
I'm a little confussed. when I flashed the rom the first thing that came up was a "Hey there" screen that said this is the 3.5 sense rom version 2.01 updated April 09,2012. What the heck?
[EVO 4G Android Development] vel7wil:
no way to change it right now and if you doulbe press the home button all ur screens will review and you can move any one to the default screen, if I'm unserstanding ur question on that

The V6 should kick in automatically...to check go to menu...settings about phone....software info...more....and the kernal version should be on the first line....hope that helps

What if we want to bulletproof the messenger process? Ghostly SMS is doing a great job catching everything, but its still annoying to be getting multiple notifications and to get duplicate messages. If someone has a walkthrough of how to do this bulletproofing it would be amazing. Or if we could have that baked into the next release (if that is even possible) that would be amazeballs.

Also, for everyone who has "phantom messages" being re-sent when you restart your phone, I have noticed that if you go into the messenger application and hit the menu button it will have an option to show you the list of messages that did not go out (even though they DID go out and your phone is just saving a copy saying it failed and needs to retry sending)...from there you can delete those messages and then when you restart your phone they wont be sent out again.

Confused

I am confused about the mods in this new version. I installed it yesterday. I did not do anything but let the install run. Where are these 6 different kernals. I have whatever the rom has in it and I have no idea what it is . Here is the numbers at menu/settings/about phone /software info./more/ Kernal version 2.6.35.10-g4b48446 htc-kernel@18-2#1. Maybe someone can tell me what kernel this is. Also I never found any way to switch bootanimations. I even tried to put the one I had on the RC1 on this rom but cannot . Tried putting it in data/local replacing the one in there and nothing happened phone still showed the animation it came with. Tried putting it in system/media replacing the one there and nothing happened there either. It also still showed the one rom has in it even after replacing the bootanimation zip.
[EVO 4G Android Development] themodifyd1:
When you installed RC2 it should have been with the new installer. You would have had to make a few choices as the install was taking place. It doesn't just do its thing anymore... It's somewhat of an interactive install. You might try again just to make sure youre flashing the correct file.
[EVO 4G Android Development] leon sprouse:
desktop visualizer should have its different sizes of widgets under widgets in personalize. Just click on blank spot on home screen where you want to place widget, pick size from different desktop visualizer widgets. Once its on the page click on it. You now have the option to pick an app in this spot, Just pick appliacation app. now you pick what you want this app to do. just pick open appliacation. Now you have to again pick an app (usually the same one you just picked) but you can use for instance the logo of Peep for the app twitter. Make any you want.I hope this helps.

Nothing works as good as the one baked in the Rom. Lacking that I installed Screenshot it ( on market) its a trial version but I hope the dev will make the mod available before we have to buy .

[EVO 4G Android Development] sebast1an09:
My phone cannot function with 3.0 or 3.5 roms :( I don't get all my SMS. Have trouble with mms incoming and outgoing. Every time I reboot my phone it sends previous texts to people that I sent earlier.

And its not as smooth or fast as everyone says. And my battery life does not seem to last very long. I did a full clean wipe. I didn't use titanium backup to restore apps. I downloaded them one by one. Is there something I did wrong or that I forgot?
[EVO 4G Android Development] One_Shot_2012:
Sms problems, download ghostly sms.

Next on the smoothness, and speed. On your phone, are you pushing your apps to your SD card to free up space? A phone with too much on it will slow it down.

Also, relating to speed, did you allow your Rom to settle at least 15 minutes before downloading anything? Allowing it to settle is a big thing.

On the battery life....do you have your background data on at all times, do you have your gps on at all times, and finally on your widgets, are they continuously connecting to the internet?

Try this:

1) turn off background data,

2) delete widgets that connect to the internet

3) reset your phone and wipe both caches

4) reboot, allow to settle

5) download a CPU tuner to regulate the CPU and the governor.

I am currently at 66% and been on my phone almost all day...been off charge since 0615 this am.

Hope this helps....

[EVO 4G Android Development] sebast1an09:
Thanks for the response will give this a try. And yeah I have my SD card partioned so my internal space is good. And yes I let it settle in more than 15 min before I restored anything.

And I never have my GPS on unless I'm usigg Google maps. My mobile network is off I only use Wi-Fi from my house. My screen brightness is set to 20-50% Max the majority of the time. Should I try the anthrax kernel on this ROM? And I don't have any Widgets that connect to the internet either. But I will reset it one more time. Does the SMS backup pro fix the reboot texts being problem also?

Yeah I'm usint ghostly sms right now I would just prefer for the stock one to work without any issues. And I think using the mobile networks drains the battery faster. I mean if there's no Wi-Fi around then yeah obviously it should be off.

Where can I get the latest anthrax download link?
[EVO 4G Android Development] cityneversleepz:
does not bother me in the least. I only noticed it after I created some of my own other problems by no fault of OD. That caused me to suspect that I might have downloaded the wrong file when I saw RC1. I have since fixed everything and must restate, that, I believe this is the best rom I have ever flashed on my evo. I even checked every SD card value with SD Booster and never saw one that I didn't have a shot at improving, until this one. OD settings at 128 are already the best score for the sd card. He left no important matter out it seems. Thanks for the verification on the RC story.

[EVO 4G Android Development] shirles:
You sould have been able to install Anthrax through the Aroma Installer when installing the ROM.

Asfar as the phantom texts being re-sent when you reboot the phone, for some reason they get stuck in the outbox. If youre inside the text messenger application hit the Menu button...there will be an option (there was for me) which has messages pending to be sent. I had a list of like 8 text messages that had already gone out, but were still flagged as pending. I just hit the menu button again and deleted them all. It's a hassel, but delete them BEFORE rebooting your phone and they won't get re-sent when your phone loads back up.

[EVO 4G Android Development] qbanways:
My 2 cents

OD, I have to say you did an amazing job. This is truly the first 3.0 rom that is smooth and fast like no other sense ROM. Even better than most sense 1.0 roms. Besides the UI just feeling smooth I test every custom ROM with a heavy intensive app, like Dead Space. It's one of the most graphic intense games for the android. Most roms have issue playing it, including the express 1.0. This ROM played it flawlessly; even better than SOS x which is a sense 1.0 rom. Also, even though I had custom roms with 3g turbo booster, it never did much. This ROM you can see the difference. I don't know how you made these scripts work but you did an amazing job.

I only notice very minor bugs that others have also reported (I listed them below).

Cannot assign lock screen short cuts

Lock screen rossie utility force closes

Some wake lag (sometimes)

When you put some widgets on the screen, they are smaller than usual (Like google search)

Sometimes google play can't connect or hangs up (no matter the connection I have)

Some delay when going to landscape mode
[EVO 4G Android Development] outerdepth:
Yeah, there is always gonna be a little lag at first, this thing is a monster. Just let it settle in for a few days, and then it will be even faster. My team mate, the Plattypus had his phone running the Express get a week plus on one battery charge before. It has been picture documented. Just let it settle in. I am sure it will get even smoother.:cool:
[EVO 4G Android Development] One_Shot_2012:
Bottom line, you guys kick ass bro! This thing is fast and smoother than ever! Your original express was the third Rom I'd ever flashed, and I've been hooked since.

I think the problems people are having, is because they are not allowing the Rom to settle properly...

Thanks again for this masterpiece, and your help!

here is an idea, I used launchkey so I have a lot of options on the long press search. then I installed a screenshot app for free that has a one press screenshot. another words, the app opens and there is a button to take a screenshot. got it on 3 second delay, but you can adjust. so I hit long press search, then hit screenshot and the sceenshot button. it closes out and opens back to the page I want the shot of. it works great. it is called KASTERsoft screenshot v1.9 http\\www.kastorsoft.com and if you go to this webpage, they have a download link to download an apk file (see DOWNLOAD at top of webpage). it works!
[EVO 4G Android Development] leon sprouse:
Screenshot it

This app works as follows. I have it set in its settings for a 5 second delay. You can also set it to take a picture by shaking the phone but I don't like this feature. There are other ways to take a picture I use. You can use the "Google search" button on the front of the phone. Long press search it open up and there is a screenshot option. push this.... 5 seconds later picture takes. Also you can add a button on the statusbar to take a picture I beleive but I don't use it. I like the search option.

Ok, after tons of work figuring out what went wrong, I finally found that there was a corrupt file messing with permissions and lockscreen shortcuts. I have that fixed now and everything else during install is working fine as intended meaning the kernels.
