There's another option now from the developer of Volume+. I haven't tested it and don't know if it's better or worse than ERC, but at least it's free. :)

Edit: Here's a new app on the Play Store that's a little fancier than ERC and has a free version and a pro version with more profiles.

Yikes, less emphasis on battery? My battery performance is significantly worse than on GB MeanRom. I wonder why.
[HTC EVO 3D] bobodobo:
Sigh... just what I didn't want to hear. I know some people have had great battery life but for me MeanROM ICS has been a total battery killer... no more than 4 hours if I'm using the screen... on GB ROMs I get more than double that. Otherwise I really like this ROM but I guess it's just not going to work for me. :( But thanks for all your efforts, Mikey and pals...

EDIT: wow I didn't even see the post above me before I posted this!
[HTC EVO 3D] mikeyxda:
If your battery is that bad, you've got issues other than the ROM and a tweak here and there isn't going to make or break it. I suggest you find the time to find the battery hog in your setup. ICS actually uses less battery than GB unless you've got something else going on like a runaway process or rogue app eating battery.

My EVO 3D is flashed to work on Cricket Wireless where I use my phone. It is on hboot 1.5 with S=ON, rooted with 4EXT Recovery.

Will I be able to use this rom with cricket wireless?
[HTC EVO 3D] mpgrimm2:
I ALWAYS make sure the phone is 100% (or 99%) charged/charging before flashing any rom and never had any problems with the battery.

Doesn't everyone do this? (YMMV)
[HTC EVO 3D] ChrisFSU:
Maybe if you update the PRL with the Cricket PRL but I have no idea. I certainly don't think data would work without some serious changes but you might could achieve calls and texts with a simple PRL update. I haven't been with Cricket in over 10 years so I really have no idea what I'm talking about when it comes to smart phones on their network.

If you are asking... Will this rom work with Cricket as-is without modification, the answer is no. That much I can say for sure.
[HTC EVO 3D] Jeffmeister:
I also notice you need the 3.17 firmware. I am on 3.08 firmware and when I tried to update it. It reboots and goes to a recovery screen and never does anything. Have to pull battery and reboot.

Anyone else not able to hear a difference with the beats option?
[HTC EVO 3D] bambamishere:
Just flashed 2.3,4G seems to be broke.

[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
Lately I haven't been using beats by itself. The bassini bass mod has Sony's xloud enhancement as well as beats and that definitely makes a difference. If you want to try it make sure to use the modified v10 version that takes out the build.prop and boot sound from the installation .zip. I usually flash it right after MeanROM ICS and before Leedroid and the MeanROM Leedroid beats compatibility mod. If you are not using Leedroid Tweaks you can just flash the regular add beats to MeanROM ICS mod after installing bassini.

Modified bassini (removed build.prop & boot audio# from this thread #thanks to banccalif#.

Edit: Totally unrelated, but i saw an app on one of the screen shots on the bassini thread called Phereo 3D Photo that is free in the Play Store and provides access to a lot of cool photos to show off the stereoscopic (I refuse to call it 3D because it's not holographic) capabilities of the Evo 3D.

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] mariojp:
Tried it all. It still seems the same.
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
Do you get additional sound enhancement options in the settings of the HTC Music app? Have you tried listening with headphones?

The bassini sound mods definitely make a difference for me on my phone and my ears aren't that good. :)

[HTC EVO 3D] EindhovenOne:
Hey, all. Let me preface this by saying that I always always always do an absolutely clean flash each time a new MRICS version comes out. Yesterday I flashed from 2.2 to 2.3, no other mods or tweaks to speak of, and now when I turn off my screen, the WiFi shuts off as well and then will turn back on and reconnect once I turn the screen back on.

Also, I know Mike said that we would notice the screen on battery performance would be a bit worse but the interface experience would be markedly better, and it is, but I am literally sitting here watching my battery go down from 99% to now at this moment 87%. I have already tried a re-flash to make sure it wasn't just a bad flash or something quirky, but I never dirty flash.

I don't think that's the type of battery sacrifice he is talking about so I figured I would post and see if anyone else is experiencing anything similar. Before I get even an inkling of flame, please note that I am not complaining whatsoever, I love the ROM and love using it; I've been with it from the beginning of MR GB. Like I said, I just want to report what is going on and see if anyone else is having similar events going on.

Again, no modifications or tweaks whatsoever. Just MRICS, no Juice Defender or anything like that. Thanks, Mike, for your awesome work, and thanks to everyone for your input and help.

-E

EDIT: Now down to 82%...
[HTC EVO 3D] Jon.StatiK:
To all those people having issues with battery I'm there with you but I've found a semi solution. It only pertains to wifi but anything could help. Make sure to turn it off if you're not near a network. I've noticed my battery do a 50% drop in matter of a few hours but turning wifi off has proved to me at least to fix most of that. Still doesn't fix the usual drain especially when the screen is on.

Hope that helps some.
[HTC EVO 3D] coal686:
I've noticed this with every ICS ROM I've flashed. The screen off battery life is phenomenal, but when the screen is on, you can sometimes watch the battery count down. I say sometimes because other times it will hold at one number for a long time, then drop quickly. Mean ICS is actually one of the best with screen on battery for me.

I recommend using something like Tasker to turn off your wifi radio when away from your usual places with wifi and then turn it back on when you are in range. In the words of Ron Popeill: set it and forget it.
[HTC EVO 3D] EindhovenOne:
...69% and counting. Not trying to spam, my "Edit" button wasn't working for whatever reason. More than likely going back to 2.2 today if I can't button this down.

I haven't noticed anything like this though. There is something going on that shouldn't be. My screen has been on and off since my original post at 8:08 and it is now at 67%, a 2% drop since my post just a few minutes ago. 2.2 definitely wasn't like this.

4G is working for me. And I'm not in an "official" 4G area. Getting good signal and speed. In fact, I'm using it to post this.
[HTC EVO 3D] mikeyxda:
Good. Let it go all the way down (to say less than 15%). Then power off completely, start back up, and charge (or swap) the battery. Any change to CPU settings seems to take two or more full (power completely off, then on) boot cycles to settle. I haven't discovered why but I suspect it may have more to do with how the battery itself responds to different voltage/current requirements than any OS factors or "calibration". In other words, a slight change in drain on the battery can cause the battery to "bog" and drain faster than it should for a cycle or two. It's almost as if it got "used to" the lower drain and bogs when it's a little higher. I'm no expert on battery chemistry but I think it's possible that the battery just has to become accustom to new voltage and current levels.

Thanks for the quick reply, Mike. I am going to give that a try and see what happens. As always, I (along with the rest of us I'm sure) appreciate your diligence, sir.

[HTC EVO 3D] guitardoc64:
A good point. Since the system "talks" to the battery it could be the phone and the chip in the battery getting back on the same page to accurately report battery levels.
[HTC EVO 3D] coal686:
Maybe a bad battery if it drains that quickly, but remember that the battery charges to 100, discharges to 95, then recharges to 100 and so on by design. I would check for rogue apps using Better Battery Stats.

As for the 1x vs 3g issue, Mike fixed this ROM to show Sprint's network for what it really is (slow). Places that used to show 3g but were really 1x are now showing 1x.

I want to use virtual secretary/Call recording. How do I get the 2way call recording Kernel for this Rom?
[HTC EVO 3D] dimebagdan65:
No need, CallRecorder from the Play Store works just fine with the stock kernel
[HTC EVO 3D] fallguy0980:
Well here is the thing. I've been using Virtual secretary and its a really nice app with a great gui. Great options. It records both sides of the phone call and sometimes very loud and clearly but most of the time, the other party is pretty quite.. i want an app that will record both callers very clearly. I don't want to waste my time on an app if it doesnt do that lol... So is anyone using the callrecorder that can attest to this?
[HTC EVO 3D] EindhovenOne:
Just to report and see if anyone else is having the same thing going on...still having WiFi disconnects at random when the screen is on once every 30 seconds or so, and it disconnects when the screen goes off. Settings are set to never disconnect even when asleep. My laptop remains connected to the same WiFi constant as well as my co-worker's phone...

[HTC EVO 3D] mikeyxda:
You've got a null (dead) connection. You're connecting to the access point but you're getting no IP address so it keeps trying to fix that. Do a full power off, then power back on and see if that fixes it. If not, maybe reboot the router.

I see with 2.3 it states more emphasis on performance and not on battery. Wondering if 2.3 will have an effect on battery. Might hold off to see what others get.
[HTC EVO 3D] schmeggy929:
i have the new linksys 2400 and still does it to my phone. I allocated the first well technically the second IP address to it. Sometimes it stays connected all night and sometimes a WIFI problem. Look through the settings and says its connected but I know its not. i used speedtest first(never finishes, Internet connection lost) and then to verify I browse using Dolphin and stock browser both hang up and freeze. Rebooted router 3 or 4 times a night. But then again it could be the cable modem too.
[HTC EVO 3D] olghb:
I have a question. Every time I use ASOP lockscreen in Leedroid Tweaks When my screen go to sleep and I press the power button to wake it up the screen backlight is dim. I would then have to go to Quick Settings to tap Auto Brightness to get it back to full brightness. Is anyone else having that problem? P.S I always dirty flash and never have this problem until I use ASOP lockscreen.
[HTC EVO 3D] kc3:
ugh lol, well thanks for giving me an answer :) and likely a correct one, I was just hoping to avoid it. It looks to be a pain. At the moment I'm running the GB MeanROM, what's the best way to get s-off on hboot 1.50?
[HTC EVO 3D] mozman:
In less than 24 hours of use of v2.3, I'm not seeing much of a difference in battery life from the prior versions. I but I do notice less lag and snappier use. I would suggest flashing 2.3, I think you will be very happy with it.
[HTC EVO 3D] ChrisFSU:
I suggest the wire trick. It's pretty easy. It did take me about 7 or 8 tries before I got the timing right so don't give up.

I'm now officially on ICS! I made the switch from MR 4.2 to ICS 0.3 and it was completely painless! Everything appears to be working, wifi, 4G, 3G, in fact, I just had some of the fastest 3G speed i've ever had at this time of day.

All of the apps seem to be working as well. Facebook had issues until I cleared the cash on the app, that cleared up the problem.

Now I'm going to have to learn all about ICS... like can you get any apps on the lock screen, if so, how, etc.

I can tell, it's not quite as snappy as MR 4.2/4.3 but its a lot cleaner and I'm sure with time, Mike will coax even more speed out of it.

Excellent job, Mike. Thank you!

The official Sprint ICS isn't going to have 4.0 either - it has 3.6 like this one. There are plenty of benefits to upgrading, although if you want it to be perfect I wouldn't do it just yet.

HW accel is nice and Chrome on Android is the best browser hands down.

Yeah, it says that in the OP. All 3D functions are messed up as well as USB mass storage until Chad figures everything out. For me, high quads aren't worth losing those features, so I figure I'll wait until he gets everything worked out.

Since flashing 2.3 my battery life has been horrible. Also charging while plugged in via USB takes much longer. If I am plugged in and using 4G my battery life continues to dip! Even on 3G I am seeing this.

Maybe I will try a full wip and flash as well.

Two things broke me from HTC. The competition was the Evo 4G LTE and the SGS3. I'd pick the Samsung for two primary reasons. The first is the removable battery. But the second is a pet peeve of mine: camera shutter lag. HTC has made yet another smartphone with horrendous shutter lag. The shutter lag on the Evo 4G LTE is the same as our Evo 3D from what I've seen in reviews: a half second or more. The Samsung is truly zero shutter lag right out of the box. The fact that HTC made yet another phone with unacceptable shutter lag that renders the camera nearly useless for anything but still photography was enough... then thinking back at the crooked screen fiasco on the E3D where I had to go through two phones just to get one with a screen that wasn't so crooked that one corner was actually under the blackout, and I think I may take a break from HTC.

I am thinking, if I do upgrade, about keeping the E3D so I can continue developing for that too. We'll see. As of now, Sprint doesn't want to give me a discount and I can't afford full price for any of the new phones. So this is not a notice of jumping ship.
