I noticed that too. As a workaround, (assuming you leave the default setting for settings..applications..fast boot, ie, "enabled"), you can basically accomplish the equivalent of a hot restart by selecting "power off" and then just turning the phone back on with the power button.

The only other bug I've run into so far is right *after* restoring an app in Titanium, I get an FC. The app restores fine, but once I see the success dialog and click the "Done" button, it pauses a moment and then FC's. As a result, the "restoring app" notification in the status bar is sorta stuck there.

Meanwhile I can't get the original wallpaper back- I think I liked it better than the nasturtiums (or anything in my gallery).

335 megs free? Are you kidding me? This ROM is *tight*.

If you're thinking of giving this ROM a try, you might want to check out this recent review of GO Launcher - it really helps explain what features are available:

[EVO 4G Android Development] MikeWjF:
app in the market called "Quickboot".
[EVO 4G Android Development] grayn0de:
I tried to reproduce the FC in Titanium Backup (using pro version), but couldn't. Might try uninstalling and reinstalling from Play Store.

It is not working in the version of the Advanced Power Menu that I am using. This is on my list of things to look into and fix.
[EVO 4G Android Development] grayn0de:
Could also use the rebooter tool in ROM Toolbox.
[EVO 4G Android Development] HandsomeOne:
Nice work grayn0de rom works clean and smooth new daily Thank you
[EVO 4G Android Development] borgese:
sweet. thanks for the info guys. i'll use the rom toolbox restart in the meantime.
[EVO 4G Android Development] grayn0de:
Here you go. ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] PookiePrancer:
Never thought I'd be on a Sense rom again, but this is very impressive. My new daily.
[EVO 4G Android Development] NxNW:
This was regular free version installed via ADB. I let the Play Store update Titanium and the FC's did go away.

I did see a nag message about busybox not being able to elevate to root, but things seemed to work find in spite of it and eventually it went away by itself.

Thanks for wallpaper!

Actual bugs (all minor)

Settings..personalize..scenes..FC

Settings..personalize..wallpaper..FC

Settings..system updates..HTC Software Update..FC

Also when battery goes below 15%, warning dialog days below 1% .

Haven't found anything serious. Bluetooth GPS, 4G working great.

/sys/devices/virtual/bdi/179:0/readahead_kb is 128. Not a bad choice, certainly better than 4 (as in froyo) , but some do like to go higher. I've seen as high as 4096. I like 1024. Gallery thumbnails load faster, if nothing else.

Good stuff so far.
[EVO 4G Android Development] grayn0de:
All products of Sense removal. I will have the setting removed in the next version.

I've been trying to figure this on out for a couple days now. Should be fixed next version.

I'll look into this. Oddly enough for me ROM Toolbox shows 1024 readahead.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Sixfoota21:
Bump..hate digging for treasure.
[EVO 4G Android Development] PookiePrancer:
No kidding! It's amazing how fast a good rom can get buried just because it's good, it offers no problems, so new posts don't pop up every three minutes :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] NxNW:
One of the things that keeps threads constantly at the top of the forum is active work on developing mods themes and tweaks. But Sense 1.0 mods are all pretty mature and easy to find by now, and with GO launcher you will never need to wait for somebody to post something interesting just to try out a new look- the whole ecosystem they have built up is unbelievable. (No wonder half the cool homescreens in the "post your screens" thread are based off of GO launcher. )

So this thread will just have to survive on its own without constant chatter to keep it in front of everyone's eyeballs all the time. There are plenty of great ROMs that get buried that way- call it the "stability penalty".
[EVO 4G Android Development] grayn0de:
You guys do know that there is a 'Subscribe' option in the Thread Tools drop-down, right? :p ;)

LOL, thanks for keeping the thread from getting buried too deeply, though. :cool:
[EVO 4G Android Development] PookiePrancer:
Of course! But you can't subscribe if you don't even know the thread is there ;) (as a newbie might not)

Oops! Did I just bump this again? :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] ca1ne:
Can you send me a copy of your aroma script, I can take a look at it and see if I can help with the custom kernel installation portion of it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] grayn0de:
Thanks, ca1ne. Sent you a PM.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jonny4:
Been using this for only half a day and really like it so far.
[EVO 4G Android Development] NxNW:
Ok here is a screen shot of my desktop running a random theme (it's called "DOT" I believe) from the GO Market.

Note any non-rooted user could have this look. The difference is I have 200 MB of RAM free so the phone still runs fast (see next post).
[EVO 4G Android Development] NxNW:
If I'm understanding correctly, the point of this ROM is making the stock OTA small enough so that you can run a custom launcher without running out of RAM and suffering horrible lag. (Doesn't even have to be GO launcher- ADW could work just as well and is just as customizable.)

Do I have that right?
[EVO 4G Android Development] grayn0de:
The point of the ROM is to remove as much of Sense as is feasible, whilst retaining the stability of stock, and put more out of the box customization options in the hands of the users, starting from a stripped down base. The amount of applications that I've removed allows for less storage and RAM utilization out-of the-box (with a default install, as there will be far less running apps to start by themselves). There will always be applications and functionality that some users want/need that others don't, so I like to take the 'choose your own ROM' approach, which seems better for all.

Version 0.0.4 will take this all to the next level, incorporating more mod installation options in AROMA, including:

-your choice of custom launcher (GO, ADW, Launcher Pro, AOSP)

-your choice of quick settings mod (Standard or Extended)

-your choice of root method (Superuser or SuperSU)

-your choice of font (droidsans or roboto)

-optional custom kernel installation (Yes, it's coming back! Thanks to ca1ne for pointing out my mistaken logic! :rolleyes:)

-add-on packages

-installation of removed apps that some may want (teeter, Sprint Visual Voicemail & HTC Weather)

-whatever other options you would like to see that have enough of a fan base to make the cut

On that note, now that I've worked out some major bugs in my installer code for 0.0.4 and have a running alpha, expect to see a call for beta testers within the next couple days. :D

[EVO 4G Android Development] grayn0de:
Open call for BETA TESTERS!!

Turns out I worked out a few kinks much faster than I thought I would (all of the above mentioned changes are integrated, now ). If you'd like to help beta test version 0.0.4, PM me and I'll send you the download link and details. I need about 3-5 testers willing to bang on the beta as hard as they can and poke at it in ways that might seem illegal in some countries. This will mean lots of flashing, rebooting and possibly needing to update your network profile quite a bit (I seem to have to do this every other day or so, from repeated flashing, lol). Must be willing to provide detailed bug reports and logcats, when needed .

First come, first serve! ;)

Voice mail

Hopefully I didn't miss this in the OP or in other posts.....how do you get your voice mail? I left myself a test voicemail and there were no notifications. Can Sprint VVM be installed and work properly? Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] volk9029:
When you use aroma it asks you if you want voice mail installed, in one of the options.

Sent from my lair.
[EVO 4G Android Development] rjd728:
I see "Social Networking", "Swype Keyboard", "Google Talk w/Video" & "Static & Live Wallpapers". I did not see an option to install Sprint Voice Mail unless it is bundled into one of those options. Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] volk9029:
I saw that as an option, anyway, if you have tb backup, restore it. You should be fine.

Sent from my lair.
[EVO 4G Android Development] NxNW:
The voicemail option in aroma is in the v004 beta that volk9029 is using, not in v003.

For now, you have to be sure to manually install either sprint vvm or set up google voice,or you may miss voicemails with no notification whatsoever.

Dial "1" periodically to check.

Actually, that was not me with the issue getting AROMA to work. :p But, the one in question did get the issue fixed. :) Thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] X_N_:
I really like the rom but I do have some requests 1. How do I add the battery Icon to the Status Bar? 2. Is there any future updates on adding Task Manager to the Rom? 3. And is there a mod I can flash to get rid of the Arrows on the bottom of the keyboard.
[EVO 4G Android Development] NxNW:
I have personally tried the battery mods available for download in post 76 of TommyTomatoe's famous sharing caring thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1459982

on this ROM and they work fine.

Note there is an app "battery bar setting" pre installed on this ROM that does the 1-pixel wide line across the top of the screen showing battery life. Not my cup of tea, but if you look very carefully at the screenshots at the top of this thread you will see it in action.

Also if you actually download the (free) GO power master widget by clicking on the placeholder in the first screen to the "left" of the homescreen, you will also get a (very crude) battery indicator in the status bar, only on the left side. I immediately disabled it, but you might like it, who knows?
[EVO 4G Android Development] X_N_:
Thanks. Now I got the battery icon on my Status Bar.
[EVO 4G Android Development] grayn0de:
If you guys would like, I can put the battery icon back into the statusbar. Doing so should actually fix the "less than 1%" battery bug, as well. Thoughts?
[EVO 4G Android Development] evilware:
Yeah I wouldn't mind the battery icon back as long as it's the percentage battery icon. I do like my percentages and this by far the best ROM I have ever used, can't wait for version 4.
[EVO 4G Android Development] volk9029:
+ 1 on battery icon back. I flash one anyway from tommytomatoe's thread sharing means caring.

Sent from my lair.
[EVO 4G Android Development] grayn0de:
I will see about making it a percentage battery, sure. As long as the icon is not hidden, though, you could use ROM Toolbox (or similar) to change the battery icon. I've had no issues with this in the past.

On version 0.0.4: If all tests well with beta2, I may decide to upload an unthemed "preview" to the general public this week.

I'll go ahead and put the icon back in 0.0.4. The QS mods I use (both ca1ne's and tommytomatoe's) are the same as in that thread, save for GPS & battery icon removal and battery bar integration. Not hard at all to unhide the battery. ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] volk9029:
Thank you, that would be one less flash for me to do.

Sent from my lair.
[EVO 4G Android Development] NxNW:
Basically if there *isn't* a battery indicator or a voicemail notification inidcator enabled by default, you end up getting surprised by things (like "oh, I missed ten messages" or "oh, I'm out of battery"). Sometimes no news is *not* good news?
[EVO 4G Android Development] grayn0de:
True, but the battery bar is an indicator after it is enabled. The regular battery icon is getting put back, though, for the following reasons:

1) Not everyone likes battery bar.

2) Battery bar has no real percentage

3) Optional customizations to the standard icon are great in number

4) That "less than 1%" bug is getting on my nerves, lol.

I'll probably end up giving everyone the option of battery bar or not in AROMA. There is still so much that can be done to harness the power and flexibility of the installer. ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] JollyGrnReefer:
I like the option on the battery, cause I actually prefer the battery bar, much cleaner/sexier look. Is there anyway to get rid of vibration when you unlock the phone???
[EVO 4G Android Development] grayn0de:
Settings -> Sound -> Vibrate Feedback (Uncheck) will get rid of the capasitive button vibration and some other parts of the UI. Not sure about lockscreen, though. :(
[EVO 4G Android Development] jonny4:
amazing battery life with this rom, too bad I have to get rid of my Evo today.
[EVO 4G Android Development] grayn0de:

Status Update on v0.0.4 Final

I've made major headway in theming the UI and have nearly completed implementing transparent notifications on each of the optional Quick Settings mods. Also put in a bright green overscroll glow, as well.

Thought I would give you all a little taste. ;)

...Yes, I moved the battery bar mod to the bottom. What do you think?

As soon as i finish all of the optimizations, the final version of 0.0.4 should be ready.

[EVO 4G Android Development] grayn0de:
I think pvy is working on implementing a top/bottom toggle option in the next version of his battery bar settings app, but right now I have to hard code it into the SystemUI.apk files.

The final version of 0.0.4 will have it on the bottom of the statusbar, as it makes the ROM a little more unique in look than others implementing the same mod.

That being said, one could always decompile the SystemUI.apk and remove 'android:layout_gravity="bottom"' from the status_bar.xml in the upcoming version.

Hopefully pvy will have the toggle option ready before the final is complete. That way we have the option.

No, because it is based on the stock RUU. It supports ext2 and ext3.

Using version 3 update 1 (waiting till version 4 final is out to update). Anyway, with underworld v4 sbc kernel, the inverted ffc problem is fixed. I think your installer had v2 from the screenshot, but so far, no problems at all with v4.
[EVO 4G Android Development] grayn0de:
Underworld v0.4 was released the day after AlterROM 0.0.4-preview was. I'll have the updated version in the final.

That being said, you may still want to upgrade to 0.0.4-preview if you use busybox or a2sd. I noticedbthat they are not installed properly in 0.0.3-update1.

However, you could also run 'busybox --install -s /system/xbin' as root in terminal or adb shell, and flash dta2sd to fix this.

Final release is going to be slower than previous ones. I want to make sure it is properly vetted, first.
