I'm not going to try to talk anyone out of downgrading to Hboot 1.4 S-Off if that's what you want to do, but just be aware that it makes it easier to do things like flashing the Virgin Mobile firmware that you might regret later. S-On protects partitions on the phone that you normally don't need to flash, and with tools like 4EXT SmartFlash and Flash Image GUI most of us are able to do what we need to do with Hboot 1.5 S-On.

Haven't said that, it's your phone and if you are having problems with the stock ICS kernel and don't want to wait for the official Sprint release, it's certainly an option. I know Mike is looking into why the stock kernel won't flash for some people so he may come up with a solution as well.

Wow!!!! Awesome, Ive been looking to make the plunge but want a class 10 64gb....

Nice:D
[HTC EVO 3D] ACoolGuy:
I am also seeing the different notification bubbles, however both are taking the skin i chose. This to me indicates that it may be ICS default. I actually am ok with this. But I can see how some might have a problem.

I have not see the restart>Shutdown issue. My phone behaves normally. I do have Leedroid Installed however and that may be changing the commands for each option selected. Leedroid also has options to reboot into Bootloader/Recovery/etc.... and they all work fine. Guess what im saying is to install Leedroid to fix?!?
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
You can find your firmware level from any home page at Menu/Settings/About Phone/Software information/More. It's the Baseband version on that screen.

Flashing the current firmware if you are Hboot 1.5 S-On requires installing an RUU (ROM Upgrade Utility) .exe or .zip and mpgrimm2 has a guide for that here. If you have downgraded to Hboot 1.4 S-Off, freeza has a .zip in this thread that can upgrade your firmware to the 2.17.651.5 level without upgrading your Hboot.

Thanks bud!

yeah thats what I was guessing I am 2.08...I am S-off...downloading the firmware now.

Thanks again!

Does this rom correctly shows 3D video and pictures? i flashed another ICS rom and noticed not correct 3d video playback - picture do not have that volume as on 2.3 GB roms.
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
Adreno is already in.

The ICS version of Leedroid Tweaks can give you expanded quick settings and advanced power menu until Mike incorporates them into the base.

Has anyone (1.5 hboot people) who get bootloops on the stock kernel and fixed it with Chad's kernel tried going back and flashing the stock kernel out of the ROM after that to see if it stays fixed after you flash Chad's kernel once?

Mike
[HTC EVO 3D] gyrospazjohn:
I'll try that now, Mikey!

EDIT:Still loopy :( Flashed with Flash Image GUI from MR ICS .5
[HTC EVO 3D] KnoxBNYC:
I am one of those troubled peeps. You mean extract the kernel from your ROM and flash it separately? No, not tried that.
[HTC EVO 3D] long_tall_texan:
I don't think this is a ROM specific issue, but i don't want to go back to GB or a stock ROM to double check. I just noticed it when I tried to use face unlock feature.

When i go to face unlock, and try to capture my face image, my phone was using the main camera, not front facing. I went to camera app and tried the swap camera button. Found that it was not switching between front and rear camera. It is just inverting the image vertically.

Anyone else have this, or ever run across it? Just figured I'd ask here since this is where all the cool E3D geniuses hang out.

LMAO reminds me of that SNL skit, "The Vague Game"
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
It's beginning to look like it's not the flash that's failing (hard to believe that both 4EXT and Flash Image GUI aren't working), but that there's something about your config that the stock kernel doesn't like. The only thing that I've seen mentioned that would affect the stock Linux 3.0 kernel is the adsp.img in the firmware, but I'm not sure how to check the level of that. Since I am on Hboot 1.5 S-On, mine was last updated by the RUU for 2.17.651.5 and the stock ICS kernel works for me.

Just a quick note...

Please try to refrain from creating new discussion threads in the Meanies Social Group, questions can always be asked in the help and support thread. Starting a new discussion thread will NOT get your question answered any faster, it simply gives me more to do besides actually helping out and answering questions since I check in on it quite often throughout the day and have to answer then close new and unneeded threads. Thanks for playing, game on! ^_^
[HTC EVO 3D] petermg:
Well I'm on Firmware 1.13 and works great so far!!!!!!! See my attached pic!
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
You must have flashed the Virgin Mobile firmware because the baseband version of the firmware that came with the 2.17.651.5 build is 1.06.00.1216.

Maybe you're looking at the Build number and not the Baseband version?

SwiftKey 3 Beta

You guys have to try the new Swiftkey keyboard. In my opinion, it is by far the best keyboard if have ever used. Works awesome with ICS...

Just wanted to pass it along....

Does anyone know where we could still get the Anthax kernel at? That would make things some easy just to flash that kernel on this rom. Dont think im going to be all for the downgrading and other if I could just flash a kernel..
[HTC EVO 3D] robdeezle:
Ok so im not sure if this is a known issue or not but when your phone is locked you can still access the pulldown notification and by then hitting any of the apps running you can get into the phone by then pressing the home button.

Any idea?

[HTC EVO 3D] dans108:
That is a nice keyboard!!!!
[HTC EVO 3D] SRQ Rick:
wow...interesting
[HTC EVO 3D] wjason:
If you set up a lock style under security it disables the pulk down on the lock screen.

[HTC EVO 3D] P_M_G:
is it just me or does there seem to be a bit of lag when zooming on an internet page? mine seems to fuzz up the text as it redraws...or is this normal now? (v0.5 with chad's leak kernel)
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
That's a new feature of ICS. You can now get to the notifications/quick settings screen from the lock screen if you don't have any security option set. The "lock" is only to prevent inadvertent touches from triggering unwanted actions while you are not using your phone and is not a security mechanism.

If you don't mind running without security, it's an alternative way to get back into your phone.

[HTC EVO 3D] robdeezle:
Ahh I see well thanks for info I guess its time for some lockscreen security:mad:

Thanks for the link.

I use Swiftkey on both my phone and tablet. They are two different versions, but the tablet keyboard is split so that it's easier to use your thumbs to type letters.

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] :
Ok, so I just flashed the anthrax kernal to see if I would get the reboots some have been reporting. First thing I noticed was the speed of the boot up. Wow. Once the phone was up I let it sit for a bit. Tried some apps and noticed the phone was freezing untill it completely froze and I had to pull the batt. Fine. Phone booted right back up almost instantly. Has been smooth and silky like your favorite chic dressed in satin and all oiled up. Benchmarking now.

Yea, I use the tablet version on my Galaxy Tab 10.1 as well. Its awesome, especially the way you can split the keyboard to be able to use with your thumbs while in landscape mode......;)
[HTC EVO 3D] petermg:
There you go. I uploaded a screenshot. what does it look like to you?
[HTC EVO 3D] luis4ever:
Can i know where or what are the GPU Tweaks?
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
Your baseband version is 0.97.10.0808. I don't know where that firmware came from, but it would be best to upgrade to the version that came with the 2.17.651.5 build as stated in the OP of this thread.

See my previous post for information on how to do that.

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] dans108:
Where can I find that kernel at?...... Man i really want to try this
[HTC EVO 3D] Osirus71:
Anyone else notice that default browser does not do landscape????
[HTC EVO 3D] ncfastls1:
Nope. It will boot loop any time the stock kernel is installed, whether its the first boot or after I've flashed anthrax and then flashed stock.
[HTC EVO 3D] Matt V:
I know I've asked this a few times already so please forgive me but MeanROM ICS from v0.3 and forward have the Adreno driver patch correct? I'm confused because I thought the patch was supposed to improve Quadrant performance but when I went from v0.2 to v0.3 I noticed no difference in Quadrant scores.
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
Mine does (see attached pic).

Clean or dirty flash?

Edit: Do you have "Auto-rotate screen" checked off in the display settings?

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] :
I believe you to be correct.
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
Mike can answer this time. :)

Maybe there was a problem with the integration of the drivers, or perhaps they have little affect on Quadrant scores.

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] mikeyxda:
I answered that a while back but maybe it got lost. Those drivers have been built in since the initial public (0.3) release, yes. They made no difference for me either, but I left them in anyway. The only time you'll get an increase in quadrant scores is if you turn on that forced 2D GPU rendering in developer options. I turned that off though, because it causes glitches. If you want to see a glitch, go into ES File Explorer to a folder that is too long to display at the top: while the folder scrolls across, you get two black bars on the edges where the icons should be. Uncheck that forced rendering: goes away. I've seen a few other glitches in other programs too.

P.S. Anyone smell that? Something coming from the kitchen.... smells extra good today!

Mike
[HTC EVO 3D] El Queson:
Hmmm

Hmm, odd im in the same boat as petermg ( build no. 1.13.652.1) except that my

baseband no. is 1.06.00.1216.
[HTC EVO 3D] drZuheir:
First auto restart :( :( hate these loops... Am using chads kernel... Hope it can be fixed :(
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
I linked your previous post a couple of times, but I think they wanted to hear it from you. Chrome got flakey on me with the forced GPU rendering as well.

Looking forward to today's serving of MeanROM ICS. :)

The build is for the ICS software and does not represent the firmware level. You need to look at the "Baseband version" for that.

[HTC EVO 3D] pongoface:
How about the option to change the font size in display settings unlocked and the black out keyboard. A suggestion never a request.
[HTC EVO 3D] ACoolGuy:
You know Mikey. I've had GPU rendering enabled since 0.1 I dont remember the ES File explorer glitch until recently. I'm going to flash .2 again and see if the ES glitch is present. If not, its possible the adreno driver source is not reliable. And honestly, I'm thinking those drivers are ALREADY within the VM ICS rom as benchmarks are not affected. I'll be back in a bit after flashing.

ALSO: What other glitches are you guys seeing with GPU Rendering enabled, so I can test.
[HTC EVO 3D] mikeyxda:
It is indeed built in. With some work, I could change it, but I actually like it. At a quick glance, it allows you to see the difference quickly. Maybe that's why it was built that way.

MeanROM ICS v05.

Okay, this ROM is awesome - super slick fast, a major improvement from v0.3 and v0.4. The ROM is very responsive although I would like to see the Rosie applied or at least a flashable option.

The good:

fast

LeedroidTweaks baked in

variety of options in the settings

battery drain very minimal

The wish we could have

flashable options like the MeanROM GB series
[HTC EVO 3D] SRQ Rick:
or just dirty flash and its done! I have had no problems dirty flashing since early gingerbread. Even making the switch to ICS.
[HTC EVO 3D] Osirus71:
So you've had no issues flashing over existing versions of mean ICS??? I usually do a complete wipe with all the fixings(Format System, modified superwipe etc..)
[HTC EVO 3D] RIPBAP1999:
Yeah I had a couple problems dirty flashing on .2 and .3, so since then Ive just superwiped, then flashed the rom, and restored the data. Never had a problem that way.

Ill send you a pm when I upload mine
[HTC EVO 3D] reynoldsrobbie:
Is there a different way to downgrade from 1.5 s-on? I thought there was posts to stay away. I looked at the directions before and it scared me away. Is there an easier and better way?
[HTC EVO 3D] SRQ Rick:
Its not as bad as it looks. I used the downgrade cd which was the easy part. Bricking the phone took several tries but once you get past that point its not too bad. You have plenty of support on here. Just go for it!
[HTC EVO 3D] dimebagdan65:
Yup, use 4ext recovery and flash away as if you had S-Off. Make sure you have SmartFlash enabled. Download the recovery control app from the play store. If you can, I highly recommend the paid version!
[HTC EVO 3D] RIPBAP1999:
After running the ruu and relocking your bootloader, follow the first video in this post (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1547695), to brick your device on purpose (not totally bricked though, just semi), then burn this live cd from here (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1563342), and boot it in any laptop or desktop, and follow the guide in the 3rd post. Took me about 40 minutes the last time I did it, but 2.5 hours the first time because I read through everything like 3 times lol
[HTC EVO 3D] dimebagdan65:
In case folks are wondering, and I've been asked so I know they are lol, the reason I haven't downgraded yet is my phone is my only internet connection, so if it's not booted up and I goof something up I have no easy way to research and fix the problem. Towards the end of the month I'll be house sitting with good WiFi so I'll give it a go then!
[HTC EVO 3D] reynoldsrobbie:
Yeah, I read the directions in two different threads and was on the fence. I think its because there are so many steps involved. I thought doing the HTC unlocker was a PITA!
[HTC EVO 3D] doeboy711:
I bricked mine on the first time, and it was before the CD was made and was a lil bit more complicated but all in all I am SO happy that I did that. I hated being tethered to my PC so that I could boot into recovery. it was a PITA IMO.
[HTC EVO 3D] jhuff83:
Those who use superwipe, are you guys just using that or are you formatting data and system etc before using superwipe?
[HTC EVO 3D] RIPBAP1999:
Try saving the videos and HTML pages! Or just wait! Haha, either way you're doing crazy things with your phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] reynoldsrobbie:
I've been using 4EXT and haven't felt tethered to my laptop since. Is that all be gaining from the downgrade?
[HTC EVO 3D] dimebagdan65:
Also, don't expect a new guide until at least version 1.0... Updates are coming too fast and furious for me to give you anything I can stand behind one hundred percent so please be patient. BUT I do plan on doing an updated launcher setup video walk through for Apex Launcher Pro (I've done my testing, that's my ICS launcher, no question about it!)
[HTC EVO 3D] RIPBAP1999:
I use 4EXT superwipe, then a modified superwipe I downloaded a long time ago, then install the rom. I probably dont need to use 4exts wipe, but I do anyways bc it only takes a couple seconds longer

You get full access to the boot partition and once you downgrade you can also attain s-off, which means you truly own the phone your paid out the ass for.
