I don't recommend it because it causes issues with other things like USB not working correctly, random FCs and to be honest is not worth it BUT that's just my opinion.

Yes the WP7ish multitasking will be included in the next release :) Also yeah the latest Mason kernel is solid! I was lucky enough to be one of the testers for it and this ROM loves mason kernels...hahahaha

Atyoung really knows what the hell he's doing....watch out for that dude, he's going to raise the bar even higher!! :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] himalayasplaya:
Just to explain the problem again: my playstore crashes when I try to search and get an app.

how do i do that?

When I go to settings>manage applications>all...i don't see play store to clear its data.

Then what am I supposed to do with the vending.apk file and fixing permissions?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Mazda:
Alright haven't kept up with your issue BUT what version are you on? Did you do a FULL WIPE (system/boot/cache/sd-ext)....partition your sdcard correctly?

Also not sure where you went to but Google Play Store is under all Applications :)

As far as fixing permissions, go to your recovery which I recommend you stop using CWM if you're on that and use smelkus as it works PERFECT with this ROM and any ICS ROM for that matter :)

Good LUCK and if the problem continues, go ahead and fill out the bug tracker in the OP and I'll take a look at it before releasing the next update.

Thank you!
[EVO 4G Android Development] chrisliphart:
Glad to see you're taking your time on this update. I'm more than fine sittin' back and waiting on 1.7 for the time being. This is BY FAR the best ROM for the EVO (for me). Is it weird to say this has completely killed my EVO 4G LTE envy? ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] dcmasta:
Is that a theme your using?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Chirpout:
Can I get the info on your setup? Mainly the theme, clock and lockscreen. I'm using Sense 4 by Blackdub which is coo, but it doesn't look that polished.
[EVO 4G Android Development] chrisliphart:
Yep. This ROM (1.7), Apex Launcher Pro with the CM9 Sense 4.0 theme from the Play Store, the Sense_4_clock_white_v3.apk from this post (it's a modded LP clock, so no fancy weather animations or anything), Smart Keyboard Pro with this skin, and WidgetLocker with this theme.
[EVO 4G Android Development] himalayasplaya:
mazdarider,

right now i have amon_Ra recovery. Can you walk me through how to switch to smelkus recovery?
[EVO 4G Android Development] aheeejd:
Go dl smelkus recovery 4.3 , put on root of sd card, rename to PC36IMG.zip, boot into bootloader, when you get there wait a minute & hit the power button once, then phone will locate update & ask you if you want to update, follow instructions, it will be volume up, it'll do its thing & then ask you if you want to reboot, you can choose no ,& then it'll go to the normal recovery screen & you can then choose recovery by volume down once & hit power button & you can check out the goodness.
[EVO 4G Android Development] WildSioux:
Not sure if this is a result of flashing the Mason EI 0.1.5 RC5 sbc kernal. But my wifi wont connect now. Any ideas?

EDIT: I got it working. Not sure what happened but I was tearing my hair out. I reset the router, the phone numerous times. Deleted the DHCP, and the network in my phone. Reflashed mason. Turned out it was a wrong password I had entered. But it stopped working when I left home and came back. That is when it wouldn't connect and the problems started.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Psyki:
Use Root Explorer to delete the Apex Launcher apk from /system/app, then copy the updated apk there. Set the permissions to rw-r--r--, then reboot.
[EVO 4G Android Development] chrisliphart:
Or, as previously pointed out, uninstall Apex using Titanium Backup and then install it from the Play Store. Both ways work. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Psyki:
Apparently a few weeks ago the CM9 team added a weather option on the lockscreen! Any plans to update this ROM to include this feature?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Mazda:
I think I've answered this question like 4-5 times already but to answer it again....no, there's no plans to add that to this ROM :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Joshmccullough:
I'm having a recurrence of the WiFi not firing up on my phone, I've got Team DIRT 1.7 and the newest Mason EI kernel, no apps that control WiFi (e.g. Y5 battery saver); it just takes a reboot of the phone and the WiFi is running, but I wonder if this could be chalked up to a ROM problem or a kernel problem?
[EVO 4G Android Development] deepsouth06:
So i un-installed APEX from TB and now when installing from the play store i get "Incompatible update". Any Ideas. Should have put I'm on 1.6
[EVO 4G Android Development] Mazda:
Ok so smelkus decided to share the Team D.I.R.T themed recovery with the WORLD so go and get it folks!!!

GO GO GO GO!!! http://d-h.st/users/smelkus/?fld_id=2974#files

Follow the instructions on his thread for those that DON'T know how to install a recovery......and NO I will not hold your hand through it :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] deepsouth06:
Dont worry about answering this. Found my answer why it was having problems updating. I'll be flashing 1.7 now that the link is fixed.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MysticRhythms87:
Sold! Gotta get me some themed awesomeness...and I get to update my recovery. Two wins in one :p
[EVO 4G Android Development] Psyki:
Sorry, I didn't know if it was asked since it became available in the CM9 base :P

Could be associated with the System Settings sticking that some are having, considering that a reboot turns it on. Try changing some other system settings and see if they stick and the boxes stay checked. At least we can then rule out one cause of your problem.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nolageek:
One issue I've had all along with this ROM is that if I leave the included kernel I can't boot past the first boot screen - it'll stick there for 4 or 5 minutes then reboot. This is after both completely wiping and even after re-partitioning my sdcard. If I switch to Mason .14 sbc it boots normally. I searched on the Mason site and it's thread here but didn't see anything.
[EVO 4G Android Development] HTCEvoHaxx:
Non A2SD

Can you please make a non A2SD download link because I really don't want to format my SD Card to use this rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Relentless D:
Just use this one. If there's no partition for a2sd to move apps to, it won't install at all :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] cityneversleepz:
This might have been said, but on the subject of "settings sticking/not sticking" before you panic and think your changes in any settings are not sticking, instead, make your changes, reboot even though the changes may not appear to have stuck. Once you've booted back up, go back and look. I had trouble a few days ago when trying to set up swype, but now I see how easy it actually is to get the changes to stick. reporting on 1.7 right now with mason EI release. 1.7 is a dream come true. I had to find out what the fascination with firerat partitions was. I've got to tell you, it is pretty sweet. I never saw so much space for internal storage on my evo before. Over 725 mb internal free. But what I don't get is why the objection to a2sd? I have both running together right now and it seems fine. I also moved the cache to the sd. Tweaked this bad boy with the V6 supercharger OPTION 6, leaded 540 octane and vipermod lower by 25 volts. The battery is ridiculous! If I told you, you wouldn't believe it anyway. No FCs, not one app that will not install. Maz, this is as close to perfection as I can expect. On firerat in case anyone is interested, I saw the settings mentioned several pages back (165 5, and 165 2), but those .txt file settings would not allow my rom to boot, I used 175 10 in the .txt file instead and it booted up just like that. Thanks Maz for this great piece of work!
[EVO 4G Android Development] HTCEvoHaxx:
cityneversleepz: I think you posted on the wrong rom
[EVO 4G Android Development] dcmasta:
Naw, this was a problem around pages 180 or so. I had to go back to 1.7 myself from 1.7.5 due to some random reboots and setting issues.
[EVO 4G Android Development] oodork123:
I downloaded no problem. I didn't a2sd at all. But I only use 4 apps so everything works fine but is there a way to change the height of the soft buttons?
[EVO 4G Android Development] aheeejd:
If your talking about the soft buttons from the flashable mod that mazda made, then no there is not.

1.7.5 installed after a fresh wipe with no issues. A2SD working great.

Still have a couple settings that force close and bluetooth syncs to my headset but whatever audio app I use to listen, I get a FC and a couple of those soft boots (no white EVO screen but the boot ani). Is this new? I went back a few dozen pages but didn't see anything reported on the BT issue I'm having. Might go back to 1.7 where BT was working since I use the headset a lot on the commute in to and back from work.

No complaints this rom is superb. Even with a few bugs it's the best thing EVOr. Get it?
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
What governor r u guys using besides the WHEATLY. I been gettin 6 hours max so i think its time to try something else(or maybe a new battery but in the meantime).

What do u guys recomend.

ummm what was the last thing was keeping your phone awake at the end...that seems to be the issue i have seen 18+ hrs of battery life in the same conditions as yours aka wifi /airplane mode
[EVO 4G Android Development] ksession:
Also any way to edit lockscreen apps? Everytime I save, it doens't
[EVO 4G Android Development] cityneversleepz:
Are you on 1.7.5? I flashed back to 1.7 because I could choose my own tweaks. I flashed it with the mason EI kernel. Link is posted a few pages back. I use V6 supercharger with option 6. Option 7 makes it a little unstable so stay with 6. then I undervolt only 25. In standby this rom uses zero battery if that is possible, I have no idea how it happens, it just does for hours on end. I say standby, byt I have turned it on a few times but since 7:10 PM until now at 9:45 PM my phone has not moved off 77 percent. Not one force close, not one reboot, every app works. If I want to be picky, the only thing I could say is I had to reboot to get some settings to stick. They stuck after one reboot. I did not touch anything in the CPU or governor area. Still wheatly with Maz's settings which are genius! the are like 384 and 800 something. why mess with something when it works perfect already?
[EVO 4G Android Development] aheeejd:
Try making a change & then reboot, if your on 1.7.5. A little bit tedious but works.

I am digging the lockscreen, but I'd rather have the pattern. The rom doesn't seem to let me change the lockscreen from the newly modded one to that. I tried looking through the settings, but I can't find anything. Any help?

Edit: Phone just rebooted on its own and the problem fixed itself.

P.S. Hey Mazda, remember when you told me to clear data for market and Google services framework so I can install pulse? The problem still persists after I did that I and rebooted. What can I do? Thank you for the rom again!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Chirpout:
I use doubletwist pro and it still happens. I wonder if it has something to do with multitasking and/or memory management. Don't know anything about either, but the thought crossed my mind. I might give power amp a try and see how that goes.

Anyone have issue as well? I'm on v1.7.5

Yea settings don't stick on v1.7.5 what you have to do is select the setting you want to change.. Set it to what you gonna set it to then reboot your phone than the settings should be applied.

Guys can we use the bug tracker and maybe do a bit of reading before reporting bugs :)

http://code.google.com/p/teamdirt-cm9/

I know some of you guys run and call me names on other threads and say I talk down to you or whatever the case may be BUT all I ask is that you search, read and follow simple instructions :)

Other then that, an update will be out tomorrow sometime so no need to report the same things over and over again....I know 1.7.5 has issues, I got that one! :) For the time being, revert back to v1.7

Thanks alot guys! Hopefully this doesn't get looked on as me talking down to anyone...just getting tired of seeing the same stuff reported and nobody using the bug tracker, that's all :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] X_N_:
I don't see it as you talking down to anyone.. Just you stating the facts trying to keep your thread in line so that it won't be cluttered with the same things over and over.

Ah okay. Thank you for the tip!

I'll use the bug tracker when I wake up. I take no offense to any of this; I see it as .being helpful. I also don't see why anyone needs to call you names when you try to help out.

a2sd help

I was using Dark Tremors a2sd before. Every time I reflashed a rom and a2sd all my apps were recovered without having to reinstall them all. I haven't managed to get that to work with this rom. When I flash an update for this rom, all my apps disappear. Is this normal? Is there a way around it or do I need to reinstall all my apps?

Maybe you can try to repair your sd-ext

Maybe, not positive at all, but when your in recovery & you hit power to install, it says at the bottom "wiping a few things, just in case", maybe that is what's going on.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Psyki:
I appreciate that, I guess I thought landscape lockscreen WAS stock as it is in every other ICS ROM. Just a checkbox. Also with a bunch of mods sometimes versioning can be an issue when mods don't work with newer versions of the ROM, requiring updates to existing mods.

I'm not complaining by any means, so far this is the snappiest ICS ROM I've tried. I'm just pointing out what I perceive to be odd inconsistencies compared to other ICS ROMs. It's one thing to set yourself apart from the rest, but you also don't want to change peoples expectations TOO much. That's the beauty of CM ROMs, you always know what you're getting.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MonsterMatt:
Good looking out Mazda on keeping it stock and for making the mods optional zips so everyone's happy :) as I prefer the stockness of it.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Psyki:
You're not hearing me. I know about that option, that is not the issue here. The problem is sometimes I simply tap the back button and it closes the foreground app. It's a bug. Or perhaps maybe a problem with my phone hardware, although it does not happen in other ROMs.

No you need to wipe completely!

On ROMS like this or any AOSP rom for that matter you can't use the ##WHATEVER# codes because of EPST not being there....is a known issue and most likely will NEVER happen on AOSP roms :)
