Swype

Hi folks. I just flashed this rom and it's awesome. I've been holding onto warm but figured I would try ics and certainly not disappointed. I've been trying to install swype and getting a parser error. Looked in the apps forum but couldn't find anything. If this has been a topic I'm sorry... 340 pages is a lot to go through. If someone could point me in the right direction that would be great.
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
There's a link in this post to the Swype beta for ICS. After signing up for the beta, download the installer and it will setup Swype. The Swype .apk cannot be installed as an app.

[HTC EVO 3D] snoopdog:
Is there an easier way to update without downloading the whole rom again?
[HTC EVO 3D] KnoxBNYC:
Good idea.

Mike, "ROM Manager" (by CWM) supports 3rd party ROM updates OTA. Could you submit to them to be part of that??

"The ROM you are using does not support OTA Updates. The developer of this ROM needs to make the appropriate changes so their ROM support OTA update. Please contact the ROM developer! Please DO NOT contact ROM Manager. THIS IS NOT A ROM MANAGER BUG."
[HTC EVO 3D] Nygel:
I believe CWM, is a recovery that did not work correctly on the majority of phones here so that's why its not a perfered item. That will be up to mike, but 4ext recovery is a whole lot better to use now. Also alot of developers want to stay in control
[HTC EVO 3D] KnoxBNYC:
I'm using 4EXT, and ROM Manager still works, so I'm not sure that is an issue.
[HTC EVO 3D] qskile:
It's already been mentioned that you need to download the ICS Swype beta installer but I was just wondering whether it's common knowledge that the stock keyboard has "swyping" functionality. I found out that it seems to work pretty well and was similar enough to Swype for me that I could ditch the Swype beta . Give it a try and see if it does enough for you.
[HTC EVO 3D] swagstr:
ROM Manager downloads the ENTIRE ROM during it's "OTA Update." I used it with my HTC EVO 4G ROM and it simply wasn't efficient. Plus, you need the premium feature for it to even notify you of an update.
[HTC EVO 3D] mpgrimm2:
Nope, your options are:

1) Clean Install (superwipe & rom flash rom)

2) Dirty Install (wipe dalvik & cache, & flash rom)

... This works fine for some people, but if you have issues, see #1.

3) Semi-Dirty Install (Superwipe, Rom, flash, & data Restore)

Here's how I do it with leedroid Tweaks:

- Make a backup of current rom

- flash superwipe (or format system, data & cache)

- flash MeanRom (then wipe cache & dalvik cache: Scripts do this for you now)

- flash leedroid Tweaks for ICS (then wipe cache & dalvik cache)

...Note, skip this if u don't want leedroid or didn't install it on prior MR version.

- (4ext recovery) format data partition: under mounts & storage I think.

- (4ext recovery) go to advanced restore, and restore ONLY the data partition from your backup. (then wipe cache & dalvik cache)

- reboot.

Note, after reboot I have had "uid mismatch" errors and had to go into the recovery and "fix permissions", which took care of it.

If u have problems u will need to redo it all without restoring the data partition. I also suggest Ti Backup as another means of backup/restore for installed apps & their data (user installed not system apps) after clean ROM installs. I also use sdx stock app remover to further remove system apps from meanrom.

I've been with Sprint since like 1992. And I held my StarTac for 6 years (until the Mogul came along). I swear they called me a platinum member there for a while. But the plan they just canceled me out of is now called Gold and It's been discontinued. I had the OG EVO, 3D, and now LTE. This will be my last annual upgrade. Nice place to be stuck, though.

(and yes, sealed in battery was my biggest concern.)

I just noticed that Ice Cream Supreme breaks my forced roaming on Mean Rom ICS. There is simply no line for force roam in Roaming under Network Settings.

Anyone else notice this??
[HTC EVO 3D] Nygel:
th issue that alot of individuals had including myself was the ROM Manager was not doing a full wipe, there were alot of issue left over, for individuals thats did what we called a dirty flash it was fine but from coming from another rom there were possible issues and with T-backup it some how got screwy, thats was the reason I personnaly switch other members may have different issues but that was mines. Also a large member count is not using CWM, just my experience.

Hope this helps

Did the Apple lawsuit make it to where you can't long press a url inside the browser to copy it? I have to double click and then select all then copy. Could have sworn it was not like this on the older Meanrom's before ICS.
[HTC EVO 3D] Nygel:
did you perform a clean or dirty flash, if you did a dirty flash just perform a super clean flash and you show be ok.
[HTC EVO 3D] mswlogo:
I've had that problem on and off with many ROM's. Don't know what the heck causes it. Happened on CleanROM (Ginger Bread series).

It's not consistent either.

I have not noticed it much lately.

---------- Post added at 09:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:39 PM ----------

I enabled full screen animation on the Weather Widget and the phone started to behave badly.

It frequently would not draw the Home Screen Icon's (for example while navigating and then hit home, home screen would be blank). Touch the screen and teh icons would show up. And the phone would not put up the lock screen.

I'm 99.99% sure it was weatehr animation. This is now my wifes phone and she loves that HTC weather crap, so I turned it on and the next day issues started happening.

Just a heads up.
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
The d3rpICS ROM from il Duce is using Apache Subversion (SVN) to do incremental updates to that ROM, but it's a lot of work for the developer and most users are still expecting full ROM updates as well because it takes some effort to get SVN working correctly. I give il Duce a lot of credit for being out front in promoting that approach, but wouldn't expect Mike to consider it until more users become familiar with it. Since MeanROM ICS is now a base for SOS M as well, changing the update method is more complicated.

Can someone show me a screenshot? Of the rom? Please.

[HTC EVO 3D] ubigdumy:
I think you might of been right, because I always do a wipe of everything and format all but micro sd so when I install the ROM I automatically go to TB and restore missing apps then restore my data and settings and since I don't use HTC weather clock the animations were not shut off but don't display either. I just put the clock widget back on the screen and turned off animations then removed it and put my clock from beautiful widgets back in and all is well. Thanks

Mail No Longer Syncs Automatically

After updating to MeanROM ICS 1.9 my mail app no longer pulls down email - it's really weird, because I have not changed anything in the accounts configuration. Even if I open it and manually hit refresh, it does not download the new emails I know are there because I just saw them via gmail's webpage. The only thing that makes it work again is a reboot and it only works once, then it dies again. What's going on?
[HTC EVO 3D] tjlawson09:

No tethering on 4G?

I tried wifi tethering yesterday and while I can tether fine on 3G, but when I have 4G on I can't tether I just get limited connectivity on the computer. Settings i'm using are Generic ICS with MMS and Route clamping enabled.

Anyone else have this problem?
[HTC EVO 3D] tj.iscool:
anyone have the stock htc twitter app & widget?

Never mind I found it
[HTC EVO 3D] kgorczyn:
I'm new to the Evo3d.

I just rooted, S-OFF, and installed this ROM...

Everything works great except WiFi Tether, Every time I get a Text or Phone Call it drops the WiFi Tethering and I have to stop and restart the service. The phone says it's still running, but none of my devices can see the Access Point until I stop it and restart on the phone. Any ideas?

I'm coming from Nexus S 4G - And I LOVED the integrated WiFi AP within ICS. Is there something like that for the EVO3D? I'm not too fond of Wireless Tether...
[HTC EVO 3D] CiDhed:
AOSP feature. Should have gotten a phone with full aosp support. Sense has a bunch of drawbacks.
[HTC EVO 3D] kgorczyn:
Thanks - so what's the most "vanilla" style ROM for Evo3D? I don't like Sense at all and I was under the impression that I don't have to have it.
[HTC EVO 3D] CiDhed:
There are several alpha aosp roms for the evo 3d but none that are really daily driver material. They have working camera in CM7 based roms but not in cm9/aokp roms. 3D and 4G don't work in any of them.
[HTC EVO 3D] banccalif:
You can run a rom cleaner script to desensify this rom or install SOS M. I personally use this rom with the cleaner, you can edit the script to delete/keep whatever you want
[HTC EVO 3D] kgorczyn:
Thanks, really appreciate the replies.

Back to the original issue, is there a fix for WiFi Tether not to kill the AP when a txt or call is received? Are there any other programs that work correctly?
[HTC EVO 3D] scientist343:

Back to the original issue, is there a fix for WiFi Tether not to kill the AP when a txt or call is received? Are there any other programs that work correctly?[/QUOTE]

Not sure about text messages but if you on 3G when ever a call comes in it kills the data connection so there is no fix that I am aware of for that. The only way it would work while in a call is if you are on 4G. I personally haven't gotten the wifi tether to work on 4G yet. If i'm wrong someone feel free to correct me.
[HTC EVO 3D] Osirus71:
i believe is you tether using 4g instead of 3g, you can both use the ap and receive calls and texts without getting dropped signal.....

Edit: Just Tethered with 4G and verified it works. I called my phone from another line and got no dropped line.
[HTC EVO 3D] banccalif:
Idk how many ppl are on boost mobile but those of us that are I'm pretty sure we're not getting voice mail notifications.. After flashing bassini beats mod v11 I now have them. I'm not sure how or why but it works and just wanted to pass this info along

Edit: you gain voice mail notifications but lose the ability to make calls. Thank God for nandroid. Do NOT flash v11, v10 works flawlessly
[HTC EVO 3D] kgorczyn:
I'm only in a 3g area - I know that when I get a call the Data Goes out - but the WiFi AP should still be broadcasting.

My main concern is txts, it should not knock the AP offline. It didn't on the Nexus 2 4G. I will flash another ROM and see if its different.

Thanks everyone.
[HTC EVO 3D] mikeymisery:
are there any other kernels that will work for this, or just stay with the stock one?
[HTC EVO 3D] Osirus71:
My wifi tether app does not get deactivated. it continues to broadcast. Maybe possible uninstalling tether app and reinstalling it????
[HTC EVO 3D] coal686:
Only one that I know of. It is Chad's Anthrax kernel (or whatever he is calling it today) and is available at infectedroms.com. You have to register there to gain access.
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
You saw my post about taking the boot sound and build.prop files out of the bassini V10 installation .zip? Having the boot sound isn't a big deal, but the build.prop supplied in that mod will break some things in MeanROM ICS.

Guys did I read somewhere that mike is moving on to the new evo 4g lte?
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
Mike had some concerns about the battery not being removable as well as the upgrade cost and indicated that he will probably continue to develop for the E3D for a while. You might be confusing him with aamikam (Mik) who broke his E3D and is moving on to the EVO 4G LTE.

I find it interesting that one of the first mods for the LTE is to map Google search to the recent apps hardware button. Apparently there are only three hardware buttons on the LTE and they don't include the search and menu buttons we enjoy on the E3D. With Sense 4.0 ROM's already available for the E3D, no WiMax support with limited LTE coverage in most of Sprint's network, and the fact that the E3D has some features that the LTE doesn't, I'll be interested to see how people that make the move feel about it a few months from now.

Couldn't have said it better myself. And yes, I'm still around, Meanies. This new job is kicking my butt but I love it! I'm still keeping tabs in here and there IS a new guide in the works, but IM still waiting for the updated Supercharger script to finish it's testing phases. From what I've seen though, it's going to be pretty epic! Stay tuned, and Ramjet...? You're the friggin man, and everyone here owes you a debt of gratitude, myself included, for your tireless efforts and unwavering dedication. It's thanks to your involvement that I'm free to focus on the new job without feeling like I have to spend every minute in here staying on top of issues (not complaining, I live to help out the Meanies family, I just don't have the time to dedicate to it that I used to) which frees me up to do what I do best: scour the forum boards for any way possible to take MeanROM ICS to the next level the same way we did on Gingerbread! The time is drawing near, keep an eye on Zepplinrox's Supercharger thread. When it's done testing, I start work on the ICS guide!

[HTC EVO 3D] lys:
Thanks for the response!

I didn't need to downgrade because I never updated my system after the first small update a day or few after I purchased the phone - so I was still on 1.40... I did use Revolutionary for s-off, then rooted it after that...

Some time after I posted this, I located a thread that had "Stock Rooted Htc Evo 3D/Shooter Odex & Deodex Roms" so I flashed the most recent deodexed Rom and have been relatively happy with what I can do.. (it solved the problem I was having that caused me to finally root it... haha...); BUT, I will probably do the superwipe and flash this rom - as it seems to be the closest to 'stock' with perks... ;)

Thanks again!

This is an off topic question but I could not think of a better place to ask it.

Which phone do you guys think would be a better purchase, the EVO LTE or the Galaxy SIII??? From what ive gathered reading around, the EVO has the better screen, camera but the SIII has more ram and replaceable battery...

Its gonna be a very though decision when the time comes...:rolleyes:
[HTC EVO 3D] SeeNev:
The EVO LTE doesn't have a replaceable battery? I've had the Evo 4G and the Evo 3D and I can't imagine having it with only a stock battery and no backups... EVO = Battery suck.

Does anyone know where I can get the beats audio file to flash back into the rom?
[HTC EVO 3D] sand1303:
Could have asked it in the general section.
[HTC EVO 3D] st0921:
It's right inside of MeanROM-ICS folder assuming that you flashed this rom.
[HTC EVO 3D] Osirus71:
I understand that, and thats why I said off topic. But us MeanRom users love to throw stuff around sometimes thats not 100% related to the rom. There are lots and lots(probably more then any other rom) knowledgeable people here in this thread that have above and beyond information when it comes to anything android....
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
These users seem to like the S3 better. Here's a side by side comparision of features. If I had to pick one I'd probably go with the Evo 4G LTE because I like Sense, prefer its looks, and have had HTC phones since my PPC6700.

I'm staying with the E3D until the next generation of Sprint phones comes out with the 800MHz LTE capability. I've got everything I need in the E3D including 4G that's available today.

I can't give a comparison but I made the switch to the LTE from the 3d and its freaking amazing! The battery issue is no big deal to me....15 hours of heavy use today and at 27%. If necessary I have the ability to charge it during the day (but haven't needed to). The screen is incredibly bright and clear and huge. No wimax in my area and LTE is supposed to roll out in a few months. I'll be a meanie for life but have no regrets about making the switch. Something funny today when I was talking with the tech at the Sprint store....He has an iphone and he was so jealous of the LTE.....I really enjoyed that!
[HTC EVO 3D] Osirus71:
Wow. Thats a great comparison article...
[HTC EVO 3D] WatermelonSlim:
One thing to consider is the SGS3 will have s-off, source code released in a timely manner, and probably more dev support because of this.

The Evo LTE is locked down (s-on) and we know how HTC is about releasing source code.

I'm sitting this round out as well. I'll wait til they have LTE in my area, and then get a phone that supports the 800 LTE spectrum. And I want it to have 3D.

A couple things to watch though...

Motorola is now owned by Google. Their new phones should be pretty awesome. Their last gen was pretty awesome (Photon) but it's all locked down. I imagine Google will open things up. Combine that with the awesome docks they have, presumably running Chrome instead of Firefox, and that could be pretty nice.

Also, Google said there will be several Nexus devices this year, made by multiple manufacturers. This could also be interesting. We could see an Evo LTE Nexus, a next gen Photon Nexus, etc.
