Alright.. so I have searched this thread and haven't seen a conclusive answer for my below issue:

Issue: I am unable to even switch on the wifi!

I have tried all the usual methods - full wipe & reflash; no wipe & reflash; toggle airplane; staring hard at phone & praying it to work!! :rolleyes:

Everything else seems to be working fine except wifi.. even GPS works great!

Also, here are my phone details: 1.5 S-on; flashed the Rom and its inbuilt kernel using 4Ext recovery touch (Flash GUI app gives an error stating some important file is missing - koush mentioned that it's the app's mistake and it needs updating)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[HTC EVO 3D] twistedumbrella:
Try deleting data/system/entropy.dat and data/misc/wifi then a reboot. If that doesn't work I would need a log to see where it's breaking.
[HTC EVO 3D] A$hr@j:
Thanks - but that didn't work either.. also from the recover log, I noticed that it still said the build as gingerbread somewhere..:confused:

So, I tried starting over from scratch i.e. flashing via fastboot after doing a wipe again & guess what! WiFi is working!!!! :)

Hence, I would say the fault was with the 4ext recovery.. anyways, all's well that ends well!!

oh! BTW, awesome job on the ROM - Loving it every moment.. GPS & wifi is my main need - so this becomes my daily driver now..
[HTC EVO 3D] thznutz87:
Do we still have to delete that Bluetooth file for battery life? If so what's the name of it?
[HTC EVO 3D] twistedumbrella:
You're thinking of a different build. I don't include the file causing that issue.
[HTC EVO 3D] Felnarion:
I love your build, but I can't use it, I'm getting reboots. How would I go about getting the information you need to see in that case? It's the logcat and kmsg right? But how do you get them, does it persist through the reboot, and just get it when it turns back on or what?
[HTC EVO 3D] A$hr@j:
Are you on S-on like me? Then my best advice would be to flash it via fastboot.. lots of the issues that we face is due to the fact that the kernel doesn't get flashed properly..more so if you are coming from a sense based rom..

Oh ok that's good but then I have another issue (maybe it is one of my apps) lose about 5% in 30 min without touching phone, and charging over night only got to 91% in 6 hours on the charger from 30% when I plugged it in. haven't had this issue with any ics ROM, but this is the first I've I have set up fully and ran as a daily
[HTC EVO 3D] Felnarion:
No, no, I've got a very close to release Evo3d, it's 1.4 and S-off. Joelz CM9 kang doesn't reboot, for instance, it just seems to be something with this build that causes it to hang, and then reboot.

Battery stats are a little unreliable right now but ill look into it.

Also under settings -> performance is a whole mess of stuff to tweak. I think the default for most builds is just the stock frequencies and I know our default is min to 1.5

Edit: so much for trying to use multi-quote
[HTC EVO 3D] tatnai:
Ran yesterday's build all day. I agree with a lot that's been posted re lag, phone disconnects, and battery. Also

1 voice to text is not working

2 phone audio became garbled and could not understand anything on a call during the middle of the day. No other audio was playing. Next call an hour later was fine, no reboot .

Making nice progress.

How did you get adb to get it to work i cant get it to work
[HTC EVO 3D] twistedumbrella:
What kernel drivers are you using? New or old? And depending on that the old needs specific property calls but the new drops them since they are already default configured.

Do you have this hack in your device/htc/shooter.mk file

# Temporary hack

[HTC EVO 3D] twistedumbrella:
Edit: posted the fix in the relevant thread. Missing import.
[HTC EVO 3D] chubbzlou:
Cool thanks I thought he had that in his init.shooter.rc. :o
[HTC EVO 3D] twistedumbrella:
Alright, the reboot issues have been addressed. Building now to see if they are fully resolved or if some are still hanging around. This does not apply directly to those who could not run with the stock kernel at all, but it does apply to anyone that could boot and then went into a loop.
[HTC EVO 3D] twistedumbrella:
Also a preview of things to come: http://d-h.st/08w

The kernel has been patched with the fastcharge changes from this forum. I was asked to give an obligatory statement recommending the widget provided by the developer, so go check it out.

In the build, under playground settings is a checkbox. This is not persistent. In other words, when you reboot it will once again be turned off. It enables fast charge from when it is checked until it is unchecked. I need to play around and get a better method of reading the current status, but the reason for this is that enabling this feature disables using the USB as a standard USB which is not something I would like left to memory or hard settings. This way, since the average reaction is to try rebooting, that will fix an issue of a forgotten switch ;)
[HTC EVO 3D] twistedumbrella:
Nothing like passing out during a build with a missing ; in the settings java file. Should be done and up shortly.

[HTC EVO 3D] flooppoolf:
You guys should use Apex, IMO it has more functions.
[HTC EVO 3D] twistedumbrella:
Yes it is.

That is their version of the advanced launcher similar to whatever it was for cm7. It is buggy though which justified the switch. Plus at lower dpi it was causing crashes and other problems.
[HTC EVO 3D] bjones8515:
Launcher i use! This is apex v 1.05 beta. It is my daily. Best one out IMO!

There's a thread for this, and it's free on market too! http://db.tt/pxCkcZkU

[HTC EVO 3D] sternum_boy:
speaking of dpi, I am not seeing the pixel density settings was this removed because the default is set correctly?
[HTC EVO 3D] cloak.n.dagger:
I have been running Deck's pb7 ROM for a day now and voice command stuff is still broken. Was your build based off the same source as pb7? Any reports on voice command functionality with the new build? On Kush's beta 9 release a while back voice commands were working perfectly and, IMO, was one of the best improvements I noticed in ICS. Hope this returns to, at least, previous functionality.
[HTC EVO 3D] twistedumbrella:
With a prebuilt audio library it did work but in swapping over to build audio that is what broke it. Some stuff is being tested to hopefully fix it without killing being able to build audio

It also won't seem to quote the post before but dpi is now under themes with some new additions to make it a little smother to change all the tablet mode parts at once. After looking at it some more, though, the next version it will be under playground. Themes should be colorful stuff and images, not that. It was worth a shot, though.

Any pics of this ROM?
[HTC EVO 3D] Zeroskhaos:
Well Twisted the update made a few improvements with call quality. However Ive noticed that while using Bluetooth (both a2dp and calls) the audio tends to break, it doesn't do it all the time but it does do it more on calls then a2dp, but both can get rather annoying when it starts breaking up a lot. Reboot doesn't help toggling Bluetooth does nothing and tried doing airplane mode for the hell of it with no success. Also I saw that there is an option in the NOVA launcher to have 3 icons on the lock screen. The unlock of course is mandatory but it has the option for 2 more, only the one set to icon 3 actually shows, the 2nd icon does not appear. Just thought Id let you know. I'm just happy Bluetooth a2dp works and once all Bluetooth works flawlessly I will be ecstatic.

hey quick and dumb question, mass storage not working...meaning what? sorry and thanks as always for the help ive from here
[HTC EVO 3D] A$hr@j:
When you usually connect ur mob to a comp using USB cable, the comp recognizes it as an additional drive or mass storage..

So, when they say its not working, it means the comp will not be able to recognize it..

thanks...that's kinda what I thought, now I won't flash this cause I use the comp to flash but I want to though

Well, mass storage and using comp to flash are 2 diff things... I believe you are 1.5 s-on like me.. so yes you can flash it using comp.. I did it.. its just that u can't use USB cable n comp to transfer stuffs to n fro from ur mob to comp..

No worries. Technically you aren't. I've been busy with my personal stuff and kushdeck has been flying through updates and making some drastic changes. I couldn't be more impressed. It's some top notch work I have to get caught up on.
[HTC EVO 3D] SoraX64:
You could just boot into recovery and transfer it from there by plugging the phone into the computer and mounting USB storage.
[HTC EVO 3D] nicksimmons336:
Download USB mass storage watcher from the market and USB mass storage will work :)
[HTC EVO 3D] bhambalek:
Just a thought here... I know that USB mass storage doesn't work, so if you need to transfer files to and from your phone, how about trying out the free app SwiFTP? As long as your computer and phone are connected to the same wireless router, SwiFTP turns your phone into a FTP server so you can wirelessly access it from your computer. Personally, I prefer this method over the USB mass storage mode because I don't have to worry about using a cable, our if I don't have one on me at the time.
[HTC EVO 3D] tatnai:
Yeah there are many solutions, recovery never fails.
[HTC EVO 3D] twistedumbrella:
I am uploading a build right now that includes a 3.0 kernel that has been tweaked minimally just to include some of the core changes of previous kernels, but is still in the testing phase.

The wifi infrastructure has slightly changed again in the init, which may break Chad's kernel. There is no need to run off and tell him I tried to prevent his kernel from running, you know who you are. After reading the opening page for his kernel, I know it is pretty important that no other developers have any part. Also, having seen how it went when I told him how to make it work last time and it took two days of swapping between driver versions testing just to end up with the same ones and not have to get source from anyone...

The current wireless drivers are the stock HTC 3.0 kernel drivers, with the only change now being the fw named fw_bcm4329.bin instead of fw_bcmdhd.bin because that is how the firmware is configured in the ICS source, despite the only real difference being the name and not the file itself.

The configuration is the same as pyramid now, as the previous method was not done to be more complicated, but as a hack to get it running on a 2.3X kernel without a ton of extra overhaul.

There are most likely some things that the 3.0 kernel solves, but also breaks, so this is still only the test phase. You WILL need a wipe coming from previous 2.3X versions. A lot of the code behind the scenes has changed to support the new kernel. If you couldn't boot with the tiamat, I recommend at least giving this a try because as I said before it is still only MINIMAL edits (enabling KSM, slight overclocking of the gpu, vm tweaks, etc)

Edit: alright, its up. Hope everything is running much smoother now.

[HTC EVO 3D] twistedumbrella:
Got the reboots under control but the key lights still stick and the battery is still a little misunderstood so the old kernel is being brought back. I did update all the wireless in the old kernel to keep with the new kernel. That should avoid what has already proven to be another adventure from getting more complicated.

In the kindest way possible I recommend anyone having trouble booting attempt a log and test out the new compatibility changes so we can get stock support patched up for you so at least anything else is optional.

Pushing to sort the battery issues out tonight. Not sure if it will be but that's what i'm focused on. The old kernel worked but just not as well.
